Chapter 511 - Head of Ji family (4)
Ji Ru’s decision made everyone flabbergasted. Even Ji Mubai, who was filled with anticipation, instantly turned sheet white.
Ji Linglong had even widened her eyes in disbelief as she could not believe what she had heard.
Just because she was close to Ji Fengyan, so... Ji Ru had handed over the role of temporary family head to her?
The red colour in Ji Qiu’s face faded. He had never thought that the position that he had wanted so much would actually be handed over to his daughter whom he had become distant, and it was just because of what Ji Fengyan had said.
When Ji Linglong did not care about others’ objection and stood up for Ji Fengyan, it caused a strain in the relationship between Ji Qiu and her. Moreover, Ji Qiu had never liked her and did not show her much concern.
Who would have thought that... Things would progress up to this stage?
Ji Qiu was stunned and a sound rang in his head.
Ji Fengyan, who was watching the show from the side, was extremely pleased with this outcome.
Seeing Ji Qiu’s extremely distasteful face, she even smiled and said, “Eldest Uncle, you have also heard Grandfather’s words. Why don’t you hand over the pendant to Sister Linglong now?”
Ji Qiu stared hard at Ji Fengyan. But one cold glare from Ji Ru made him instantly sweat buckets. No matter how unwilling he was, he could only grit his teeth as he handed over the temporary family head pendant that he had carried with him for many years over to Ji Linglong.
Ji Linglong looked at the pendant in her hands and could not regain her composure.
The position of a temporary family head entailed the next family head would be her. She had never dreamt of receiving such an honour.
“Congratulations, Sister Linglong,” Ji Fengyan smiled as she congratulated Ji Linglong. Only Ji Linglong was considered her true family at the Ji residence.
Ji Linglong blushed as she did not know what to do and only bowed at Ji Ru.
Ji Fengyan’s return not only gave Ji Qiu and Ji He a punishment, it also made Ji Ru strip Ji Qiu of his position in a fit of anger. This caused the position of temporary family head that he had yearned for to be transferred over to Ji Linglong. Such a double loss was bound to make Ji Qiu puke blood.
Seeing that the temporary family head position had been decided, Ji Ru then looked at all the shocked members and announced, “The honour of Ji family came from the terminator. The past family heads had all been aiding the terminator and could never be the other way round. Today, all of you shall hear clearly. If you create trouble outside, the Ji family can tolerate it. If you dare to endanger the safety of Ji family’s terminator, then you will be removed from the family records and kicked out of Ji residence. Linglong, you have to remember as well, no matter who broke this rule, regardless of whether you are a senior or a junior, you will receive the same punishment.”
Ji Ru suppressed the evil practices in Ji family with his decisiveness and dominance. The matter of the temporary family head had seemingly raised Ji Linglong’s status, but in actual fact, it had solidified Ji Fengyan’s identity as a terminator.
Anyone in Ji family could be removed but only the terminator could not be changed.
Ji Ru’s words made everyone in Ji family dare not offend Ji Fengyan anymore.
In the future, with Ji Ru and Ji Linglong, who would dare to say anything about Ji Fengyan?
Looking at Ji Ru’s side view, Ji Fengyan felt as if time had returned to her memory with her Grandmaster and she could not help but smile warmly.
Her Grandmaster had also protected her and her Master like this in the past. Regardless of the danger that lay ahead, he would always defend in front of them.
Regardless of why Ji Ru had protected her like this, and whether it was due to her identity as a terminator, Ji Fengyan would never forget his help.
