147 Do You Want To Take Responsibility?
Li Yanchen seemed to be unmoved, and so Ji Hanzhi turned her attention to the three children of the Li family.
âTuan Tuan, Yuan Yuan, you guys go play with the other kids. Remember to share your gifts.â
âOkay, Mama,â said the two children. âLetâs go.â Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan held hands, each of them carrying a bag of mushroom buns in the other.
âBrother Jiejie.â The little girl shouted from afar.
Li Zekai was discussing clay with Feifei when he heard the call and turned around.
âBrother Jiejie, wait for me,â said a little girl in pigtails.
Even though he did not like Ji Hanzhi, he couldnât dislike little children like him. Who would not like a cute little sister? He felt that the little sisters were very chubby and cute.
Li Zekai smiled at them. âHello, sisters! You two look exactly the same! How will I know who Tuan Tuan is and who Yuan Yuan is?â
âItâs nice to meet you, Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan! I am Feifei. I am also five years old like you.â
âNice to meet you too, Feifei!â
âIâm Tuan Tuan. I have a mole on my nose, but Yuan Yuan doesnât. But itâs okay even if you make a mistake. Brother Jiejie, I have something to give you.â
The two little girls pulled out a small bun out of the bag of mushroom buns. âI canât take them.â Although guests could give gifts to each other, his brother had told him that Ji Hanzhi was Lin Wanâs enemy. How could he accept gifts from the enemyâs daughters?
âI canât take gifts. I asked Feifei for clay yesterday and dad taught me a lesson for doing that.â The little boy made up an excuse.
Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan put the small buns back into their bags.
âThen letâs play together.â
âIâm going to Feifeiâs house to make clay.â
âDo you want to make clay too? We can go together.â Feifei invited them.
âSure.â
âMama, we are going to Feifeiâs house.â Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan informed Ji Hanzhi, then went to Feifeiâs house together.
âAlright,â Ji Hanzhi said with a smile.
[Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan have already founded an organization. Hahahaha.]
[My lovely little cubs, have a good time together.]n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
[Did you guys see that Li Yanchen and Lin Wan completely ignored Ji Hanzhi?]
[Iâve seen a news article before that said Ji Hanzhiâs love was one-sided. Li Yanchen has never acknowledged her as his ex-girlfriend at all.]
[@previous poster, if Li Yanchen had not sent those messages and done those things, would anyone ever claim that Ji Hanzhi was his girlfriend?]
[But Li Yanchen didnât do anything wrong. He helped a stranger. If it was any stranger on the road, he might have helped them too. Is it illegal to be kind?]
[Donât be too full of yourself, in case you get slapped in the face.]
[Letâs just watch what happens.]
Li Zexuan and Li Zexin glanced at Ji Hanzhi from the corner of their eyes. They noticed that her attention was focused wholly on their father and Lin Wan. They walked hand-in-hand as though no one was around.
I used to think that Mr. Li always looks indifferent. Now, I think it better to look like that because there was no change in his indifference even when he met Ji Hanzhi just moments ago,â Li Zexuan whispered.
âI think so too. And Ms. Lin looked more stunning than Ji Hanzhi today. I even took a picture,â said Li Zexin, showing his brother the picture on his phone.
âThatâs true. Even Vivi said Ms. Lin can make a debut as a model from the way she looks. But we canât let our guard down!â
âOkay. I will follow your plan,â said Li Zexin. He pointed at Li Zekai who was walking away with Tuan Tuan, Yuan Yuan and Feifei. âJiejie went to play with Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan. Should I call him back?â
âNo, thatâs fine. Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan are just little children and they donât know anything about the matter. Let them play,â said Li Zexuan. âLetâs not give Ji Hanzhi a chance to speak with father during lunch.â
Li Zexuan whispered his plan in his brotherâs ears.
â¦
The staff showed Ji Hanzhi the house that was assigned to her. She put the luggage in the room and began to familiarize herself with the place. The yard was not very big but it was full of fruits and vegetables. Colorful flowers snaked through the wooden fence. Everything looked much better than she had imagined.
Ji Hanzhiâs live stream was rolling. 20,000 fans flooded in at once.
[Sister Hanzhi, I can finally see just you.]
[Did their children go out to play?]
[Sister, have you seen Li Yanchen?]
[I saw him just now.]
[Oh, I havenât watched the group livestream but I am glad that I locked onto your live stream.]
Ji Hanzhi sat back in front of the camera. âThank you for remembering me.â
[Hanzhi replied. I watched your variety show and it was so inspirational. At that time, I was also taking care of my child by myself and was very depressed. But because of you, I regained my courage. Now, I opened a stall. I earn a living and can take care of my child.]
[Me too! Thank you, Hanzhi! Big sis, youâre my idol! I hope you just let go of that Li Yanchen and live your life on your own terms.]
[Iâve wanted to say it, but I didnât dare to. My sisterâs personality is almost perfect. Donât get involved with Li Yanchen. He isnât worth your time. He already has a wife.]
Ji Hanzhi looked at the bullet screen and fell into deep thought. Her image had always been positive, so if she approached Li Yanchen openly, her reputation would be destroyed. She needed to talk to him in a place where there were no cameras.
âWeâre just familiar strangers. I just wanted to greet him but it seems like he is afraid people might misunderstand. Thatâs alright. Donât worry.â
[We can rest assured.]
[She was only greeting him because she is magnanimous. Compared to how mature she is, Li Yanchen has such a narrow mind.]
[Not greeting someone back especially when you have a past with them isnât narrow-minded. Maybe Li Yanchen doesnât want anything to do with Ji Hanzhi because both their lives will be impacted if people start making rumors again]
[They usually do their own things during activities. Today, Lin Wan dressed so beautifully and they were all in matching outfits. Isnât that because of Sister Ji Hanzhi?]
[Come on. Just now, the live broadcast room said that they hired a makeup artist early in the morning to do Lin Wanâs makeup. Ms. Lin and Mr. Li donât care about anything else.]
...
[Isnât this hanzhiâs stream? What are the fans of the Li family doing here? Please get out, youâre not welcome here.]
[Then why are you all talking about Ms. Lin and Mr. Li if you all are so morally superior and are only here to praise Sister Hanzhi. You guys started it.]
Ji Hanzhi didnât expect Lin Wan to have established a fan base so quickly. If someone even talked negatively about her or Li Yanchen, people jumped to their defense.
âWe are all guests here invited by the Festival Group. Letâs just focus on the missions and the whole experience and stop attacking each other, alright?â said Ji Hanzhi politely. âEven if we have to interact from here on out, it will be on the Festival Groupâs request. So, there is no need to fight about it.â
To prevent others from thinking she was intentionally trying to get close to Li Yanchen, Ji Hanzhi decided to use the Festival Group as an excuse. They Had invited her here, after all.
[Thatâs right. I donât care about it either. Sister has said that itâs all in the past. They are just familiar strangers who happened to participate in the same variety show.]
[I think she is just putting out a âlegitimateâ reason for her behavior in the future.]
âI havenât done anything to anybody, so could you guys be a little more civil even if itâs online?â said Ji Hanzhi. âI am not Lin Wan who stays silent while being attacked for doing no wrong. I heard that there is a lawyer among the guests. If you spread rumors, you need to take legal responsibility. Do you guys want to be liable for spreading false rumors?â
