The night outside the window was exceptionally quiet. Tang Youyou leaned against Ji Xiaohan"s chest, even her breathing seemed to have become lighter.
Ji Xiaohan gently caressed her hair. His lips were pressed against her forehead. At this moment, there was no longer any burning desire, but instead, there was another layer of deep affection.
The more he loved, the less of any worldly distracting thoughts he had, and the more he loved, the less of an indispensible part of his life he considered him to be.
Now, Ji Xiaohan and Tang Youyou had such a feeling. They saw each other as the most important people in their lives and no longer wanted to separate them.
"Shouldn"t we go upstairs and sleep in case the kids wake up and come looking for us?" Tang Youyou thought that after staying downstairs for so long, it was time for her to sleep.
"Hm!" "Let"s go!" Ji Xiaohan held her hand and nodded.
The two of them went upstairs. This was the villa, and although it couldn"t compare to the Ji Family villa, it still had three large rooms that were neatly and tidily cleaned. Tang Youyou stood at the stairs, took a glance, turned her head and looked at Ji Xiaohan.
Ji Xiaohan gently combed her hair: "You can sleep with the kids!"
Tang Youyou said softly, "Alright, you go to bed early as well!"
The two of them entered their respective rooms. Tang Youyou lay down on the side of the bed and softly slipped into the blanket. The two little guys warmed up the blanket and Tang Youyou hugged her daughter as she fell into a deep sleep.
In the other room, Ji Xiaohan leaned on the bed, reached out for his phone and read a message.
It was sent to him by Lu Qing. It was Ji Shangqing"s latest address.
Ji Xiaohan frowned. Ji Shangqing"s new home was just a high-end residential area less than a kilometer away from his company. Ji Xiaohan couldn"t help but sneer. He really liked watching the show.
But what was he up to?
Ji Xiaohan frowned as a bad feeling rose in his heart.
If it was the old Ji Xiaohan, then he would have settled his grandparents overseas. Alone in the country, he had almost no weaknesses that could be hurt, but now, he had a woman he loved and a child he treasured. Even his grandparents were unwilling to leave.
The last time he had placed his grandparents abroad, it had been a sign of compromise and withdrawal, but this time, he was not going to retreat. He would protect all the important people well and not let them get hurt again.
Of course, it was not Ji Lin"s power to take the initiative to hurt others. If it really touched Ji Xiaohan"s bottom line, he would also take the initiative.
When it was noon, the two children were taken out to play by their grandchildren. Since the old lady had nothing better to do, she called her old sisters to meet them for tea.
These old sisters were not young anymore. There were more people in their previous team, but they were getting older and some of them had already left. The remaining few, however, were growing more spirited with each pa.s.sing year.
Old Lady Ji had always been the same, and it was the same for today.
"Madam Ji hasn"t contacted us much lately. What are you busy with?"
"What else can I be busy with? It"s just finding two little golden grandsons at his home. I"ve heard that they receive and deliver it every day, so I enjoy the happiness of being with them."
"When are you going to bring those two girls out for us to see? They don"t look like they did when your young master was young."
"Sigh, Madam Ji is also working hard. If your daughter-in-law is still in Ji Family, you don"t have to worry about the matters of your two children every day!" The moment these words came out, Old Lady Ji"s expression froze. He glanced at the old lady who was speaking randomly and said indifferently: "I don"t feel that it"s hard work. After all, she"s my biological grandson."
The old lady was shocked, and didn"t dare to say anything else.
Old Lady Ji immediately opened his mouth: "I invited all of you out today because I plan to have di
er together tonight. Don"t all of you have young misses in your families who are still waiting to be married off? Do you have the chance to bring it out tonight? Coincidentally, I have a grandson who is returning.
"Really? Which grandson is he? " All of the old ladies were overjoyed, immediately thinking of Ji Xiaohan and Ji Yueze. However, they had recently heard the news that they had a girlfriend, could it be another person from Ji Family?
"He"s the son of my second son!"
Everyone understood that they would naturally be eager to let their granddaughter succeed in this marriage.
Even if Ji Family wasn"t Ji Xiaohan or Ji Yueze, as long as one was a grandson of Ji Family, their family background was not bad.
At 7 o"clock in the evening, in the private room of the restaurant that Ji Shangqing was supposed to meet, Ji Shangqing went to the di
er happily.
A young woman was sitting beside the group of old ladies. After that, the old lady beckoned to him. "Shang Qing, come over here and sit beside grandma."
Ji Shangqing reacted in a second. It was already impossible for him to turn around and leave.
"Grandmother!" Ji Shangqing did not like this kind of situation, as he disliked it even more than everyone else in Ji Family.
However, there were some people who had a cheap mouth and would always use all kinds of methods to compare them. Even if they didn"t say it out loud, their eyes would still be exposed, so Ji Shangqing didn"t like sitting in front of these old ladies and eating.
Ji Shangqing forced a smile and sat beside Old Lady Ji.
Old Lady Ji patted his shoulder and introduced him: "This is my second grandson, Ji Shangqing. Everyone should get to know each other.
When a few women saw Ji Shangqing, they were more or less disappointed. Although they didn"t say anything, their eyes were no longer filled with expectation.
The atmosphere couldn"t help but be awkward.
Those women were disappointed, but the group of old ladies were still very pa.s.sionate. Because, they were old and didn"t have much caution towards Ji Shangqing. They only hoped that their granddaughter would be able to get his love.
Ji Shangqing was originally quite confident after being questioned by a few women about his career. However, as a Ji Family person, he could only take out one listed company. Thus, he only replied with a few simple sentences.
After di
er, the old lady went next door to play cards with the other old ladies, leaving the young people to chat.
Ji Shangqing looked at these well-off women and asked them about their work. Each of them curled their lips and told him that apart from eating and drinking and having fun, they didn"t need to work anymore. Now, they still had to worry about how to play, where to play, and how to play to their heart"s content.
Ji Shangqing sneered in his heart, this was telling him that once he gets married, women don"t need to work anymore. They only need to learn how to spend their money.
Heh!
