Xiao Ru wanted to dodge his gun, but as soon as she moved away, she was grabbed by two female prison guards. Her eyebrows were facing the gun, and she was so scared that her legs began to tremble unconsciously.
The gun slowly moved over and finally, it touched her forehead.
Xiao Ru had nowhere to hide, and was so scared that tears came down. She said with snot and tears: "Master Ji, what do you want? I have no grudge against you, why do you want to take another life on your hands?"
Ji Chensi's expression was calm as he spoke word by word: "I want you to come out and clarify everything."
*
The night is cool as water.
Xiao Xiao sat in the house in a daze.
Suddenly the doorbell rang.
She put down the glass of water in her hand and stood up.
I opened the door and heard Ji Ling's crisp voice from outside, "Mommy..."
Xiao Xiao's eyes became hot, and she picked up Ji Ling from the ground, "Ji Ling, why are you here?"
"Grandpa sent me here, Mommy, I missed you so much."
Xiao Xiao's heart was suddenly filled, she leaned over and kissed his little cheek, "Mommy misses you too."
"Mommy, Grandpa is here too."
Hearing this, Xiao Xiao looked behind him. Ji Wangshan, with a head full of silver hair, was standing behind them, leaning on a cane, with an expression of innate majesty.
Xiao Xiao nodded at him, "Old General."
Ji Wangshan nodded.
Ji Ling's eyes turned around and he said, "Mommy, is there anything to eat at home? Ji Ling is hungry."
"Didn't you eat dinner?"
"I was so worried about you that I couldn't eat."
Xiao Xiao suddenly felt sad and scratched his nose, "You idiot, how can you not eat? Mommy is fine."
"How can it be alright? Grandpa Zeng said that your case is very serious!"
Xiao Xiao was stunned and looked at Ji Wangshan behind her. Ji Wangshan pretended not to hear anything. He moved his crutches and walked into the house.
From his actions, Xiao Xiao could tell that the old general had something to say to her.
So Xiao Xiao took Ji Ling's hand and went in. She went to the kitchen first, washed the rice and vegetables, wanting to feed Ji Ling first before talking.
The kitchen, which is neither big nor small, is filled with the aroma of food.
Ji Ling said to Ji Wangshan who was sitting on the sofa: "Grandpa Zeng, doesn't it smell good?"
"Yeah." Ji Wangshan only looked kind and benevolent when he was treating Ji Ling.
"I've said it before, Mommy's cooking is delicious. If Grandpa tastes it later, he will definitely want to eat it again."
Ji Wangshan didn't say anything, but touched his head, his expression silent but gentle.
Xiao Xiao quickly prepared four dishes and a soup, including sweet and sour pork ribs, garlic crispy pork, a soup and a serving of vegetables.
After placing the dishes on the table, Xiao Xiao said as she served the rice, "Ji Ling, it's time to eat. Go wash your hands."
After saying that, he looked at Ji Wangshan again and said respectfully, "Old General, come and have something to eat too."
This time Ji Wangshan did not refuse. He stood up with his crutches and walked over.
The three of them sat at the dining table to eat. Ji Ling chattered away, and Xiao Xiao occasionally replied to him with a word or two, picking bones with a gentle expression.
After dinner, Ji Ling fell asleep soon. Xiao Xiao put him on the sofa and covered him with a thin blanket.
Ji Wangshan called his adjutant and asked him to take Ji Ling away. He stayed in the living room, looking at one place in silence for a long time.
Xiao Xiao knew that the old general had something to say, so she went into the kitchen and poured him a cup of hot tea, "Old General, have some tea."
Ji Wangshan looked at her calmly and said slowly: "I have something to tell you."
Xiao Xiao nodded and sat on the sofa opposite him.
Ji Wangshan took a sip of tea and said, "Let me put it this way. As a celebrity, this scandal will affect Ji Ling to some extent. He is still our Ji family's child and will be trained as the helmsman of the Ji family in the future. If he has a mother like you and those evil relatives behind him, I believe it will affect his future to some extent..."
"Old General, what do you want to say?" Xiao Xiao interrupted him and asked with drooping eyelashes.
Ji Wangshan pursed his lips, his eyes like torches, "What your family did this time was indeed a bit excessive. You are Ji Ling's mother, so for Ji Ling, I can help you solve this matter, but I have a request. I hope that after this matter is over, you can retire and live abroad. Of course, I will not stop Ji Ling from recognizing you as his mother. In the future, when he grows up, he will also go abroad to receive education. I promise you that if you want to see him, I can let you see him once or twice a week until he reaches adulthood."
"And what about after you become an adult?"
"After you become an adult, of course you still have your thoughts on him. If he still wants to see you, he can still do so."
Xiao Xiao's pupils shrank and she looked up at the old general. For some reason, she felt grateful to him. She was grateful that he didn't say anything too cruel in the end. He just didn't want her to be Madam Ji, but that didn't stop her from being Ji Ling's mother.
Xiao Xiao sighed in her heart and said, "I'm not happy with what you said. In fact, no matter what the outcome of this scandal is, I have plans to retire from the entertainment industry and go abroad."
Otherwise, if something happened to Xiao Ru, she would stay in China, and her parents would come to her every day to bother her. Instead of doing that every day and worrying about her parents exposing her scandal again, it would be better to retire and hide far away. She didn't finish college because she was pregnant with Ji Ling, so she wanted to take this opportunity to study abroad and fulfill her dream of going to college.
"Are you planning to go abroad?"
"Yeah." Since the Ji family still doesn't like her and Ji Ling can still continue to be her son, Xiao Xiao feels that this is the best ending. She just feels sorry for Ji Chensi. She hasn't seen him for almost a week and wonders how he is doing now.
"Which country do you want to go to?"
"Which country will Ji Ling go to study in the future?"
"What I meant to his grandmother was to go to America."
"Then I'll go to the United States." Xiao Xiao agreed happily. Although her voice was soft, there was a sense of helplessness in it.
Ji Wangshan heard this and looked at her. Seeing that she was calm, he sighed, "As for you and Chen Si, just think of it as him being sorry for you. I will give you some compensation when the time comes..."
"Okay." She didn't say no. At this time, agreeing to it would give the old man peace of mind.

Ten o'clock in the morning.
Xiao Ru's defamation case officially went to court.
Xiao Xiao is the plaintiff and Xiao Ru is the defendant.
Because the incident was so hotly debated, the judge made an exception and turned on all the cameras so that the audience outside the court could see the trial.
Xiao Ru was sitting in the dock, and the lawyer asked her, "Ms. Xiao Ru, Ms. Xiao Xiao said that everything you said on the Internet was defamation, and she never did such a thing. What's your explanation for this?"
Xiao Ru was wearing prison clothes, his expression trembling, "I have nothing to say."
Lawyer Bian Fang looked at him like a hawk, "What do you mean by that? Could you please explain it in more detail?"
Xiao Ru was coy and hesitant, "I don't know anything, you can judge however you want."
She looked like she had suffered a serious blow and her whole expression was very scared, which made people feel at first glance that there must be something fishy going on.
The young and handsome judge frowned and said in a deep voice: "Ms. Xiao Ru, this is a court. If you make a false confession, we have the right to hold you accountable."
Xiao Ru immediately looked like she was about to cry, and said anxiously, "I don't want to either, but I can't say it, I can't say it, Your Honor, you obviously know it, don't you? Even if I tell the truth, you won't rule in my favor. I can't say it, I can't say anything."
Her appearance makes people suspicious.
Xiao Xiao, sitting in the plaintiff's seat, curled her hands slightly. It was obvious that Xiao Ru was pretending. What was she doing
The judge looked gloomy and said, "Ms. Xiao Ru, what do you mean by this? What do you mean by I clearly knew? What did I know?"
Xiao Ru pursed his lips and looked at the people from Huayu. Seeing that the boss nodded at him, he felt reassured. "Oh, Ji Chensi, you dared to threaten me yesterday, so today I will discredit you in front of all the audiences."
She looked at the judge cautiously and asked pitifully, "Master Ji asked me to say this..."
"Who is Young Master Ji?" The judge looked at her, confused.
Oh, still pretending
Xiao Ru sneered in his heart, "It was Master Ji Chensi. He came to the prison to see me yesterday. He said that if I dared to tell the truth in court, he would let me leave the prison sideways..."
At this point, the door of the court was suddenly pushed open, and several men and women walked in. One of them was pregnant and was supported by a man with great care as she walked slowly into the court.
