The eldest daughter became popular after appearing on a family variety show

Chapter 279 Despair (1)

In the prison of the Beijing government, Ji Xueyao trembled and clung to Shen Ruyan.

The October night was not cold enough to make people shiver, but the dark dungeon seemed to be filled with dead souls, damp and cold.

In addition to the low temperature, dirty mice would occasionally crawl across the ground. Some of these mice were fat and plump, and through the dim sunlight, you could see that some of the mice had blood on their fur.

Ji Xueyao almost vomited.

In this world, being able to sleep is God's gift to life.

Ji Xueyao was wearing thin summer clothes. The cold temperature in the dark and the fear of the unknown made her shiver.

"Mom, I'm so scared."

Because of fear, Ji Xueyao didn't sleep a wink last night. At noon today, she finally had a not very comfortable nap.

But I didn't know that I would be woken up by the live broadcast system screen before I had slept for long.

Ji Xueyao had no way to deal with the live broadcast system that disturbed her sleep. She could only make use of the system as much as possible to see what was happening outside.

Shen Ruyan hugged Ji Xueyao's shoulders and said, "It's okay, it's okay, Yao'er, don't be afraid. We have to trust your father. The thing he cares about most in the world is the two of us, so he will definitely find a way to rescue us."

In this family, the only person Shen Ruyan can rely on is Ji Zunxing.

There was nothing to kill time in prison. The only thing the two people could watch was the screen of the live broadcast system.

As soon as Shen Ruyan finished talking about Ji Zunxing, Ji Xueyao saw Ji Zunxing himself with a sad face on the screen.

Seeing Ji Zunxing was like seeing hope. Ji Xueyao called Shen Ruyan in surprise, "Mother, look, it's father."

On the screen, Ji Zun was walking on a sun-drenched road. The warm wind blew up the corners of his clothes. He seemed to be full of vigor and vitality despite his melancholy, as if he had returned to his youth.

"Did father find a way to rescue us? Did he?"

Ji Xueyao keenly analyzed something from Ji Zunxing's expression.

Shen Ruyan was even more observant. She looked at the road Ji Zun was walking on, which seemed to be the road leading to the Princess's Mansion.

She almost came to the conclusion at that moment that Ji Zunxing had gone to find Ji Chenxing!
As for why Ji Zunxing went to find Ji Chenxing, it's easy to figure out that he must have gone to plead for himself and Ji Xueyao!
She knew that although Ji Zunxing was sometimes stupid, he still truly loved her and her daughter.

"Your father must have gone to Ji Chenxing to plead for mercy."

Shen Ruyan was comforting Ji Xueyao verbally, but in her heart she was actually comforting herself.

She had lived for half her life and had enjoyed a glorious life as the general's wife for so long. Now that she was imprisoned, she was really not used to it.

Ji Xueyao is not stupid either. After going through so many things, she finally understood that Ji Chenxing is not someone to be trifled with. Although Ji Zunxing went to ask Ji Chenxing for help, Ji Chenxing might not agree.

"Mother, do you think we can still go out?" Ji Xueyao asked.

"Yes, of course!" Shen Ruyan was not confident in her heart, but she still swore, "Xueyao, don't worry, even if your father can't save us, mother will find a way to ask someone to rescue us."

With Shen Ruyan's comfort, Ji Xueyao felt much better and was not so scared anymore.

They snuggled together and watched Ji Zun walk to the door of Ji's mansion.

Unlike before, this time Ji Zunxing was not arrogant, and did not say anything to make Ji Chenxing angry. He just said to Ji Chenxing, "I will definitely treat you and your mother well." Shen Ruyan was very relieved.

Ji Zunxing finally came to his senses. Maybe Ji Chenxing was the type of person who would respond to soft words rather than hard ones. If he had treated her like this earlier, she might not have had to endure the calamity of imprisonment like she is now.

Later, Ji Zunxing talked about how much he loved and missed "Ji Chenxing's mother", which made Shen Ruyan feel a little embarrassed.

There is no doubt that Ji Chenxing is a sentimental person, and playing the emotional card in this way may really be able to persuade Ji Chenxing.

Ji Xueyao's mood also improved a lot. Although Ji Zunxing didn't mention her at all, as long as Shen Ruyan could go out, why would she worry about not being able to go out?

Ji Xueyao happily complimented Shen Ruyan: "Listen, mother, father still loves you the most."

Shen Ruyan also smiled sweetly, but just as she was about to say something, she was stunned by Ji Zunxing's shouting.

"Princess, it's not Shen Ruyan, it's not that bitch Shen Ruyan! The person I'm talking about is Wen Ya!"

Ji Zunxing's voice seemed to have some kind of penetrating power. Although separated by a screen, Shen Ruyan still felt that these words were like a heavy hammer, hitting the most tender place in her heart.

Ji Xueyao's words praising Ji Zunxing were still ringing in her ears. At this moment, Shen Ruyan felt ashamed and embarrassed, and she felt like her brain was about to explode.

However, Ji Zunxing's performance is far from over.

At the gate of Ji's house, Ji Zunxing ignored the unfriendly words in the comment section and smiled at Ji Chenxing with his old face turning into a flower.

"You are a princess. How could a commoner deceive a princess of such noble status?" Ji Zunxing had the words "evil plan succeeded" written on his face.

Ji Chenxing looked at Ji Zunxing who was still kneeling on the ground, and seemed to really believe Ji Zunxing's lies, and a smile appeared on his face.

"If that's the case, then why is the father kneeling? How can a father kneel for so long in front of his daughter?"

She did not do it herself, but took a half step back in disdain, "Someone, help this princess's father up."

But when Ji Zunxing stood up, Ji Chenxing didn't invite him into the house, it seemed that he had something else to say.

On this side, Ji Chenxing was calm and composed, while on the other side, Shen Ruyan’s teeth were about to break.

She still trusted Ji Zunxing so much, who would have thought that at the critical moment, Ji Zunxing would do such a thing.

Unlike the angry Shen Ruyan, Ji Xueyao had never seen such a father. At this moment, she felt that she was abandoned by Ji Zunxing. She seemed to have lost her backbone. She leaned softly on Shen Ruyan, tears falling from her eyes.

In ancient times, men were the backbone of a family.

Without Ji Zunxing, Ji Xueyao didn’t know what to do.

On the other side, the live broadcast system fed this scene back to Ji Chenxing.

Ji Chenxing smiled imperceptibly. This was exactly the result she wanted.

Letting the two people die directly would be too easy for them.

They provoked Ji Chenxing again and again, and Ji Chenxing was calculating for them.

Now that the time has come, Ji Chenxing wants to let them taste the pain of being abandoned and backstabbed by their families, and let them know what it feels like to have no one to trust and feel despair.
