Qiu Yizhen replied to her father’s question with confidence, “She always conceited with herself! She believes that she is incredibly virtuous and acts so damn arrogantly! And plus, no one made her push Jian Yunnao down the stairs anyways! She ruined his entire life!”
“You’re an idiot!” Qiu Liyao cried out. He couldn’t help but curse at his daughter.
“Then I guess being an idiot is hereditary then!”
“You!” Qiu Liyao yelled. He took a deep breath before he continued, “Don’t talk about things that are unrelated. Either way, you must come with me to the Jian Residence tonight to apologize.”
“I’m not going!” Qiu Yizhen replied. To ask her to apologize to Jian Yiling? There was no way in hell that was going to happen!
“What did you say?” Qiu Liyao threatened. In his anger, his chest was heaving up and down violently.
“Grandpa and Grandma Jian probably don’t even know about the situation! If you ask me to go apologize, isn’t that just confessing without duress?”
Qiu Liyao paused for a moment. What his daughter had said made sense.
Even if the incident was a big deal at Shenghua, the Jian family wouldn’t necessarily know about it.
Furthermore, if Jian Yiling didn’t tell her family about the situation last time, then she probably wouldn’t tell them this time either…
When Qiu Yizhen saw her father consider her words silently, she knew that she had convinced him.
“You can punish me by confiscating my pocket money. Either way, I’m not going to go apologize. If you’re done telling me off, I’m leaving.”
After Qiu Yizhen finished her sentence, she turned around and left Qiu Liyao’s office. She didn’t care whether or not her attitude would make her father pissed.

On the other hand, Ji Ming’s situation was far worse.
He had finally finished skipping before the incident had ended.
After struggling to skip the last few times, he collapsed onto the ground. He didn’t want to ever move again.
The bodyguard next to him announced, “Five thousand. Right on the mark.”
Originally, Ji Ming hadn’t expected to reach the number. However, with Luo Xiuen’s appearance, the incident had ended a little later than expected.
Luo Xiuen had used around ten minutes to beat up the delinquents. Then, she had ordered them to apologize before she cleaned up the aftermath.
After Jian Yiling had left, Luo Xiuen had continued to interrogate the delinquents.
Overall, she had used up around an hour.
Master Sheng kept to his word. It was until the incident was over.
Because the time had been extended, Ji Ming reached the target of five thousand.
The bodyguards reported the situation to Zhai Yunsheng. After that, they retreated from the apartment.
Ji Ming was paralyzed on the floor for an hour. He didn’t move at all.
Normally, it was strenuous for him to run a kilometer in a physical education class. However, right now, he felt as though he had run tens and hundreds of kilometers.
When Ji Junfeng returned, he saw Ji Ming lying on the ground. Ji Junfeng picked up a book that was placed on the coffee table and threw it at his son.
“You can break the law and commit crimes during normal times but this time you choose to mess with Master Sheng? Do you have nothing better to do? Do you know that if this project fails, you’ll have to beg for food in the future?!”
“How do I know that I was going to mess with Master Sheng… I was only messing with that brat from the Jian family. I blame Yu Xi for this. I thought I had good relations with the Yu family… Turns out, he harms me like this!”
Ji Ming weakly answered his father. He was angry, however, he had no energy to dispute the situation.
Up until now, Ji Ming blamed Yu Xi for his suffering.
“Stop blaming people. From now on, whenever you see Jian Yiling, take a detour! Otherwise, if Master Sheng doesn’t kill you, I will!” Ji Junfeng snarled. “Also, as for Yu Xi, I’ll go find out what is going on.”
Ji Ming agreed reluctantly. Although he didn’t know his family’s situation very well, he knew that they couldn’t mess this project up.
