NOVEL NEXT Chapter 99.1: No Amount Could Compensate Her (1)
Ji Fanyin was stopped by Father Li in the corridor.
With his arm still outstretched, the middle-aged man regarded her solemnly, “You are still required here.”
“No, my job here is done.” Ji Fanyin insisted. She turned her head to look at Li Xiaoxing and explained, “He knows what he needs to do to recover.”
Father Li followed her line of sight to look at Li Xiaoxing and frowned.
“The key is whether he is willing to do so or not.” Ji Fanyin continued, “Sometimes, it is impossible to wake a person from his pretend slumber, isn’t that right?”
Without waiting for a reply, she circled past Father Li’s outstretched arm and walked away. This time, he did not stop her.
She headed towards the room Secretary Fan had previously pointed her in.
In actual fact, it was not a difficult task to find the room Ji Xinxin was in, especially since it was being guarded by a man dressed in a suit. Judging from his stature, it was hard to tell whether the man was a bodyguard or an assistant.
Moreover, the man had not even made any attempt to stop her, merely throwing her a glance, when she came up to knock on the door.
Soon, a hoarse voice sounded from within, “Come in.”
Ji Fanyin entered.
Inside the room, Ji Xinxin was sitting on an armchair. When she noticed the identity of her visitor, she subconsciously shrank back into the armchair and curled her arms around her stomach. “Who sent you here?”
“Money.” Ji Fanyin stationed herself in the vicinity of the door, unwilling to get too close to Ji Xinxin. She continued, “I’m sure you know I was paid to come here.”
Not wanting to get close to Ji Xinxin was one thing but the main reason was to deny Ji Xinxin of any opportunity to frame her in case of any unforeseen circumstances.
“No, who instructed you to come to this room? Is it Li Xiaoxing or Li Mingyue?” Ji Xinxin asked aggressively, “What are they planning now? Do they want to take my child…”
“What do you think?” Ji Fanyin laughed.
When dealing with an intelligent person who was on the brink of insanity, there was no need to over explain things. The simplest and vague replies were enough to send them down a spiral of doubt.
“You have already met Li Xiaoxing. Since you have already received payment, you will definitely complete the job…” Ji Xinxin murmured, “The Li Family obviously thinks you are more useful than me.”
“I heard your pregnancy has been unstable.” Ji Fanyin looked at Ji Xinxin’s stomach.
There was still no visible sign of her pregnancy. However, according to the gossip queen, Zhang Ning, it was still questionable whether the child could even be borned.
Nonetheless, even if Ji Xinxin could safely give birth to the child, she would never be able to become the wife of Li Xiaoxing. That was something Ji Fanyin had made sure of moments ago.
Since the preparation work for Li Xiaoxing was already completed, it was time for her to provide Ji Xinxin with some mental suggestions.
