The dozens of ledgers strewn before Ji He felt like direct blows to his heart.

Ji He’s face had turned entirely green—there was no way he could have known that Ji Fengyan had brought so many ledgers with her. She had obviously turned up well-prepared!

A similarly strange feeling rose in Ji Qiu’s heart, and he immediately looked toward the kneeling Ji Qingshang. With a small shiver, she hurriedly shook her head.

She had no idea Ji Fengyan had brought back all those ledgers with her.

“I would have to trouble Second Uncle to kindly provide me a time—so that I can send someone to collect the things.” Ji Fengyan beamed at the Ji family’s pale faces. These things had all been prepared by Linghe earlier—it was just a pity that her former self had no use for them and allowed others to take advantage!

Ji He had taken over the Ji family’s accounts for some time. With his natural talent for numbers—even without those ledgers—he could mentally sum up everything that they had taken from Ji Yun all these years. Hu City was not a small town like Ji City—it was a prosperous place. The taxes received yearly amounted to a considerable figure—all of which had fallen into the pockets of the Ji family and long been squandered away.

Ji Qiu was also speechless.

He had intended to recall Ji Fengyan and force her to hand over the World-Termination-Armour.
