He had just been gagged by someone and stepped on. A bellyful of anger and hate surged in him when Ji Ziyin denied her relationship with him.
He even resented her and Ji Xiao for not making things clear to him at the beginning. They only said that the Miracle Doctor from the East was skilled in medicine, but they said nothing about that person's martial arts. It caused him to fail miserably and lose all his face!
At this moment, Ji Ziyin still wanted to put all the blame on him. He was not a fool. How could he not know that he had kicked an iron plate this time?
It was because Ji Xiao and Ji Ziyin had provoked the Nan family.
He was still extremely vexed. He didn't know if he could escape, so how could he be willing to take the blame for Ji Ziyin?
The moment he pointed her out, Ji Ziyin's expression changed drastically. She was a little flustered at first, but she quickly regained her calm. She immediately looked at the man with a sharp gaze that was full of warning. "Don't spout nonsense. I didn't instruct you."
"Miss Ji, don't deny it. I was just following your instructions. Otherwise, why would I find trouble with that Miracle Doctor if I don't even know her? I was still following your instructions."
Ji Ziyin wished she could cover his mouth.
However, Ji Lingfeng and so many elders of the family were watching. No matter how bold she was, she did not dare to silence the other party in public.
The more intense her reaction was, the easier it was to be seen through.
Ji Ziyin's brows twitched. She could only turn to Ji Lingfeng and say anxiously, "Patriarch, he's spouting nonsense to frame me!"
"Mhm." Ji Lingfeng placed his fingers on the table, bent his knuckles, and gently knocked on the table.
He ordered without even looking at her, "Take Ji Ziyin to the punishment hall and give her 50 lashes."
The Ji family's punishment hall was famous for being ruthless.
Ji Ziyin had been the leader of the Ji family's younger generation since she was young. She had only seen others being punished in the punishment hall, but she had never been there before.
