Madam’s Identities Shocks the Entire City Again

Chapter 3393: I Think You’d Better Discuss It With Madam

Editor: Atlas Studios

“Who?”

He Lin handed him water.

Ji Lingfeng didn’t take it at first, only after a while. “Who do you think?”

He Lin looked at him with a stunned expression. “You mean…”

Ji Lingfeng could tell he had guessed it. He lowered his eyelashes slightly and was enveloped in the darkness, as if he was so exhausted that he could drown in the night at any moment.

“What do you think?”

“…”

He Lin hesitated and did not dare to answer this fatal question immediately. He lowered his head and thought for a while before looking at Ji Lingfeng’s sickly expression and saying softly, “Patriarch, have you discussed it with Madam?”

Ji Lingfeng opened his eyes and looked at him.

Even in the darkness, He Lin could feel his sharp gaze.

He gritted his teeth and insisted, “I think you’d better discuss such a big matter with Madam. Otherwise, Madam will be sad if she finds out from someone else.”

“She’ll understand.”

Ji Lingfeng and Xie Yun had been married for decades and raised a son. It would be a lie to say they had no feelings for each other. However, this love was more of an allyship that they cherished. Even Ji Lingfeng himself could not tell how much love was involved.

“You’ve seen it for yourself during my absence from the family. Ji Nan is not suitable to be the Patriarch. First of all, he can’t control the elders.”

“Patriarch…” Ji Lin tried to deny it but could not refute him.

Exhausted, Ji Lingfeng propped his head on his hand and stared at him with sharp eyes. “If Ji Nan can sit firmly in this position, as his father, I’m willing to give him a chance. It’s just that I don’t have the time. How long can he sit in this position if something happens to me? Besides… this position doesn’t belong to me, to begin with.”

This last sentence was the point he wanted to make.

“This position doesn’t belong to me. I’ve only occupied it for that person. It’s time to return it to her descendants.”

“Patriarch…” He Lin felt sad for him. He wanted to comfort him, but because of Ji Lingfeng’s seniority, he couldn’t bring himself to.

Ji Lingfeng let out a heavy sigh. His complexion was terrible, but his spirit was relaxed. He even had the mood to smile at He Lin, who was about to cry.

“Don’t feel bad. I got what I wanted.”

He took out the old photo again. The girl in the photo who looked like Qiao Nian seemed frozen in time, like she had never aged.

Ji Lingfeng gently caressed her bright eyes as he said in a low voice, “All these years, I often regret it. If I had been more careful back then, that tragedy wouldn’t have happened… Would she have been alive right now?”

Ji Qing was taboo in the Ji family.

However, very few people knew that Ji Lingfeng did not let anyone mention Ji Qing not because of the rumors back then, but… because Ji Qing was a taboo in his heart.

He didn’t want anyone to even speak of her, for fear of crossing that boundary and offending him.

This was because as long as someone mentioned Ji Qing, Ji Lingfeng would be unable to sleep at night. He would regret not doing well enough back then and not protecting his sister. At the same time, he would treasure her in his heart.

“Lu Zhi just called. He said that the Pharmaceutical Association’s medicine is coming. Go to the docks and get it yourself. Don’t let anyone see it.”

Ji Lingfeng’s vulnerability was fleeting.

After purring the photo back into the drawer, he returned to his usual unyielding image.
