After Transmigrating as a Tycoon’s Wife, My Thoughts Are Heard by the Whole Family

Ji Fei's grand and ambitious plans were interrupted by this sudden pull!

Before she could react, Qin Xian's deep voice came from above her head.

"I apologize, this matter was my fault."

While everyone was confused by Qin Xian's action of pulling Ji Fei into his embrace, his apology was even more shocking.

"Qin Xian, you don't need to apologize for her, what she did should be..."

Two years ago, it was Qin Xian who apologized for Ji Fei's outburst, so everyone naturally assumed he was apologizing for her again.

But before Zhu Lingling could finish, Qin Xian clearly lowered his head and said to Ji Fei, who was staring at him with wide eyes in his arms: "I'm sorry for causing this misunderstanding."

[What? Is he talking to me? Why am I suddenly having trouble understanding my native language?]

A slight smile tugged at Qin Xian's lips as he turned to address everyone: "That email was sent by me using my wife's name."

Everyone present: Sorry, but at this moment, we're also having trouble understanding our native language!

This time, Yu Zhi was the first to lose her composure, "Qin Xian, even if you want to cover for her, you can't..."

Qin Xian was still quite embarrassed, but he took this opportunity to explain: "That day when you sent an email requesting to meet me, my wife did see the email first, but she told me about it right away. I just felt it wouldn't be appropriate for me to reply directly, since any response would mean contact with an ex. I believed that since we had broken up, out of respect for my current relationship, there shouldn't be any private interactions. So I asked my wife to help me reply, but..."

Qin Xian looked down at Ji Fei in his arms again, raising his eyebrows helplessly: "My wife didn't want to help, so I had to do it myself."

Ji Fei was stunned.

The others were also dumbfounded, but those who knew Qin Xian knew he wouldn't stoop to lying.

So it was true? Was this something Qin Xian would actually do?

It was too childish, too undignified, too un-'Qin Xian-like.'

Like watching their idol's image crumble, Qin Xian's 'devoted fans' were devastated on the spot.

Those stares once again made Qin Xian feel the power of social death, and he was literally breaking out in a cold sweat. For once, even the mighty Mr. Qin wanted to dig a hole and crawl into it.

But he had to face the consequences of his own actions.

He instinctively tightened his hold on the soft warmth in his arms.

Ji Fei hadn't noticed Qin Xian's movement because her mind was currently filled with exclamation marks.

[He doesn't look like he's lying, did he really reply himself after that? Why did he use my name though?!]

Others also voiced Ji Fei's questions.

Qin Xian wasn't afraid of embarrassment anymore and looked directly at Yu Zhi, his gaze seeming to possess the power to see through everything, penetrating deep into one's soul.

Yu Zhi hadn't yet processed this earth-shattering revelation when this gaze made her whole body tremble, making her feel genuinely nervous for the first time.

"Although there was an element of spite towards my wife, I thought that replying in her name would make any reasonable person understand that we are united as husband and wife, and maintain appropriate boundaries from then on, respecting each other's lives. However..."

Qin Xian's gaze was like a searchlight, making Yu Zhi feel utterly ashamed.

Even Zhu Lingling beside her felt her face burning with shame, unable to utter any words of defense despite her trembling lips.

While Qin Xian's words were still polite, the impolite implications were silently conveyed.

If one had any sense of shame, after receiving a warning from someone's wife, they should have known their place and not tried to steal someone else's husband or do anything immoral.

Qin Xian had assumed this would solve the problem on the premise that Yu Zhi had some dignity.

At least in Qin Xian's previous understanding of Yu Zhi, she was a well-bred lady, an excellent woman who surely knew about honor and shame.

So Qin Xian never imagined Yu Zhi would team up with Zhu Lingling to bring this matter up.

After methodically explaining everything, Qin Xian still turned to Ji Fei and said: "I'm sorry."

This soft, sincere apology was indeed because his oversight had caused Ji Fei to suffer undeserved consequences.

He only looked at Ji Fei, his eyes seeming to speak, no longer caring about others' reactions.

Ji Fei also stared blankly at Qin Xian, their suddenly meeting eyes showing a moment of panic.

Before Qin Xian could see clearly, Ji Fei calculated: "I'm claiming compensation for defamation."

[Don't think you can get away with just two words, if you're going to be stingy, don't cause trouble for others.]

Qin Xian was helpless, almost whispering in her ear: "...Alright, that's fair. How about ten million?"

Ji Fei's eyes instantly lit up. "Well, I suppose I'll have to accept."

[Such a small matter! Worth ten million, scam me, please scam me harder!]

Qin Xian...

[If only I could claim emotional damages from Yu Zhi, thinking back now, Qin Xian really needs this money to comfort his wounded heart, it's too mortifying, I'm even embarrassed for him, how can he remain so calm, is it like if I'm not embarrassed, others will be? Hahaha! Should I comfort him later, will he think I'm deliberately making fun of him?]

Qin Xian: Thanks, but no need for comfort. If you try to comfort me, I might have to leave this heartless world.

The others hadn't noticed the small interaction between the two because they were currently digesting this earth-shattering revelation!

The spectators could swear that among all their class reunions, they had never encountered such explosive drama, especially happening right before their eyes! With twist after twist, it was too intense.

At this point, the rights and wrongs were clear, and everyone's expressions towards Yu Zhi and Zhu Lingling had changed.

They had just been speculating about the wife's malicious interference, but it turned out they were the shameless ones, and the former school beauty's image came crashing down.

So now, no matter how tragic Yu Zhi's expression was, it all seemed extremely fake.

The surrounding crowd began to buzz with discussion.

Yu Zhi couldn't take it anymore, but still stubbornly tried to maintain her image, this time crying even louder to gain sympathy and buy herself some time, as her mind was too chaotic to process how things had developed this way.

But Zhu Lingling had lost it. She liked Qin Xian but was too insecure to pursue him, and when she saw Yu Zhi with him, she thought only someone as beautiful, intelligent, and excellent as Yu Zhi deserved him.

Not someone like Ji Fei who used tricks to get Qin Xian. If using tricks could make one Mrs. Qin, why couldn't it be her? So she couldn't accept seeing Qin Xian protecting Ji Fei like this now, and that constant use of "wife" was unbearable to her ears.

"Qin Xian, have you forgotten that Yu Zhi is your true love? Have you forgotten that you once loved each other? Can you honestly say you don't have any feelings for Yu Zhi now? I understand, you're just too responsible, so you can't let go of this woman. You're just fulfilling your duties as a husband, but deep down you still have feelings for Yu Zhi."

Zhu Lingling frantically tried to pull Yu Zhi up, "Yu Zhi, ask him!"

Yu Zhi certainly knew the situation was unfavorable, but she didn't want to embarrass herself further, hoping to retreat from this battle and fight another day!

This time, the others at the table remained silent, not daring to speculate anymore.

Although they didn't want to admit it, Qin Xian truly treated Ji Fei differently, compared to Yu Zhi before... it was very different.

Qin Xian's calm gaze swept over, and after a moment's thought, he said: "Have you been watching too many TV dramas? What true love? There never was any."

Perhaps after hearing Ji Fei complain about it too many times, he really hated this term now. This term implied lingering feelings.

But these words stunned Yu Zhi, as if denying everything, and she couldn't stay calm anymore to choose the best way to handle the situation.

"Qin Xian, you're too heartless, how can you talk about our past like this, you..."

"I never said you were my true love, nor did I ever think so," Qin Xian coldly interrupted. "You were just my ex-girlfriend, we broke up peacefully and parted ways amicably. That's our past. As for our previous relationship..."

Qin Xian's gaze gradually turned cold. He didn't want to be too ruthless, but Yu Zhi and Zhu Lingling's behavior had already crossed the line.

"I need to apologize to you. Only recently did I realize that I never truly had feelings for you. Starting a relationship without being certain was wrong, and since it was a mistake, there shouldn't be any possibility of it continuing. So, whether it's you or your friends, please stop these meaningless actions - you've already caused trouble for both me and my wife."
