"What? You—" Ji Hongwen's complexion stiffened in anger. As his eyes turned cold, he raised his hand to grip his chest, staring at the kneeling Ji Mengran in disbelief.
The entire Ji family knew of the deep hatred Ji Hongwen had for Sheng Yihan. On the Spring Festival many years ago, Ji Nuan had been alone at home and had nearly been forced by Sheng Yihan. This was the Ji family's greatest taboo and no one ever dared to mention it. This was because they all knew Ji Hongwen held deep regret for this incident, and was extremely sensitive and disgusted by it. For many years, he struggled to come to terms with his slight carelessness that almost caused irreversible harm to Ji Nuan.
Ji Nuan was too aware of the power of the facts she had spoken, yet she still said it.
Some people really forced themselves into a corner; there was no point blaming others.
