Chapter 93.3: I Can’t Act Her (3)

Ji Xixins voice was tainted with heavy fatigue. Father, what is it?

But Father Ji did not notice the unusualness in his daughters voice and focused on airing his own financial troubles. I know Mr. Li is currently in a bad state of health. However, we just need him to agree to it. The rest of the paperwork can be handled by his assistants. You only have to raise the matter with him, I believe money is not an issue to him.

Father, Xiaoxing is currently in a critical situation. This is not a good time to seek favors from him. Ji Xinxin counseled her father in a suppressed voice, Wait a while longer. When his condition improves, I will find an opportunity to raise the matter with him.

If I could wait, I would not have come to you. When I called you previously, didnt you ask me to wait too? Father Ji fumed, I even told your sister that you are the useful daughter in this household. At the end of the day, both of you are the same!

... Ji Xinxin was speechless but after a moment, she still decided to reason with him in a gentle voice, Father, its really not a convenient time now. Xiaoxing has been put on tranquilizers and is unconscious most of the time. He cant hear what I say.

But her pleas fell on deaf ears. Father Ji continued to berate her, If I knew that cripple was going to a vegetable, I would not have let you marry him! Song Shiyu is a much better choice! He had been helping out our family all these while without a second word, regardless of the amount!

...

Father Ji had put the call on hands free. Mother Ji piped up quietly, Xinxin, dont you have a wide social network? Do you know of anyone who can help us? I remember there is a young lad called Bai Zhou? What about him?

Bai Zhou has gone back to Yandu. Ji Xinxin said monotonously, If worse comes to worst, sell the house to tide you over. After you recover financially, its still not too late to buy a bigger house.

What did you say?! You want me to sell the house? Father Ji fumed, Do you know how people will look at me if they found out?!

If your company goes bust, how will people look at you? Ji Xinxin countered.

That was a fact Father Ji could not refute.

However, it did not stop him from banging the table and expressing his anger. I have brought up two daughters and both of them are useless in my time of need! So many years of effort, all for naught!

Ji Xinxin took a deep breath but could no longer take it. She let out a shrilling scream before shouting, Thats enough!

It was uncertain whether it was screaming or shouting that drowned out Father Jis table banging sounds.

How many times has the company faced bankruptcy? Havent I been the one to seek help from my contacts to tide the company over? Ji Xinxins voice trembled with rage. This time I am the one in trouble. Not only did you not help me, you kept forcing me to do things. You have always placed your own needs before mine! All these years of currying favor with you but not once have you thought of me first!

Father Ji could not find the words to refute her. His jaw tightened as anger flooded through his veins.

Just this once, cant you be my safety blanket? Can you let me settle my own stuff without worries? Ji Xinxin screamed, I am only engaged to him! We may not even get married! Do you know how anxious I am? No, you only care about whether that tiny company of yours is going to go bust. You do not care in the least how your daughter is doing and what kind of troubles she is facing! Both of you are rubbish parents, I am an idiot for not realizing that sooner!

Without waiting for their reply, Ji Xinxin smashed the phone on the floor. She took a deep breath in the hospitals washroom to calm the overwhelming rage and jealousy within her.

Of course Ji Xinxin had seen the photos Ji Fanyin sent her.

They went to seek help from Ji Fanyin? Did they forget how they treated her in the past?

The only one who can save them and the only one they should love is me and only me

... Excuse me. Secretary Fan called out from behind her.

Ji Xinxin raised her head and saw Secretary Fan standing outside the washroom from the reflection in the mirror.

Mr. Li is awake. He wishes to see you. Secretary Fan informed her accordingly.

It was such a simple statement but Ji Xinxin could feel all the blood draining from her face.

I cant be her stand-in, she muttered.

Yes, Secretary Fan acknowledged her statement without any pity before continuing, You do not have to play the role of Ji Fanyin. You just have to act according to Mr. Lis instructions.

... Ji Xinxin grabbed the sides of the marble sink in exasperation and said, What he needs is a shrink, dont you understand?

Secretary Fan looked at her silently for two seconds before responding, Yes. But no one can force him to receive treatment. If you have a way to change his mind or get that person to do so, I am all for it.

Ji Xinxin lowered her head to hide her expression. She smirked, You want me to look for Ji Fanyin and admit defeat?

No, Im only here to inform you that Mr. Li wishes to see you, Secretary Fan answered.

Ji Xinxin bit down hard on her lips as a crazy thought filled her mind.

If she told Li Xiaoxing the real Ji Fanyin no longer exists, will this mans mental fortitude be completely destroyed?
