Kapitel 186: Wasted Efforts (3)

"Wh… what…" Dazed, Ji Qingshang's smile had frozen upon her lips. She stared dumbfounded at Ji Qiu's dour face.

"Oldest… Oldest Uncle, you were saying… I… am to kneel? Wh… why?" Ji Qingshang could not understand what was happening at all. It was clearly Ji Fengyan who was in the wrong—why was she the one who had to get on her knees?

Ji Qiu looked coldly at Ji Qingshang, his tone of voice making it clear that there was no room for disobedience. "Ji Qingshang, are you defying my words?"

Ji Qingshang trembled. Under Ji Qiu's fixed gaze, she started shaking uncontrollably, both her legs gone to mush.

"Bro… Brother…?" Ji He was likewise stunned.

"Kneel down!" Ji Qiu bellowed.

With a shudder, Ji Qingshang's legs gave way and she fell to her knees in the hall. Her lovely face had turned ghastly pale.

Ji Fengyan watched the whole scene with traces of a smile.
