Bai Yiyan kept on calling Bai Zhenzhen, but they all showed that her phone was off. She had no choice but to call her mother. When her mother received her daughter"s call, she was first filled with joy.
"What"s wrong with elder sister?" Can"t get through to her phone? " The white mother had a look of disbelief on her face.
"Mom, you and big sis are very close. Do you know if she has any other way of contacting me? I have some urgent matters to discuss with her." Bai Yiyan could only place her hopes on her mother.
Her mother frowned. "I know that she owns a few properties in other cities. They are only used for occasional vacations. I don"t have any other means of communication. Why are you looking for her?"
"Mom, can you give me her other address in detail? I"m really in a hurry! " Bai Yiyan didn"t dare speak the truth. She believed that her mother definitely didn"t know that her aunt had done such a thing before.
"Why are you in such a hurry? How"s your relations.h.i.+p with Ji Yueze? Have you made any progress? " Her mother was more concerned about her daughter"s happiness. If Ji Yueze became her son-in-law, then he would have too much face. It would be enough for her to flatter those sisters.
"Mom, this is how he and I are. Hurry up and send me the address, hurry up!" No matter what mistake she made, she believed that she had already repented. Even if Ji Family truly wanted to punish her, it wouldn"t be enough to take her life, right?
Soon enough, her mother sent over Bai Zhenzhen"s addresses. Almost all of them were from the city, and there were also many tourist sites, a total of six of them. Bai Yiyan knew that because her aunt didn"t have a son and a daughter, she was extremely ruthless in her investment.
No matter what, he was finally getting an idea of what was going on.
Bai Yiyan quickly called Ji Yueze and told him about this.
Ji Yueze said lightly: "This information of yours is useless to me. My brother has investigated all Bai Zhenzhen"s properties and has sent people to find her. But I believe that if she was smarter, she definitely wouldn"t be hiding in her own house."
Bai Yiyan lost all her strength in an instant. She fell down on the sofa, feeling dizzy.
"Ji Yueze, did my aunt bring more trouble this time?" Bai Yiyan"s voice was filled with worry.
"Yes sir!" After Ji Yueze finished speaking, he immediately hung up.
When it got dark, Ji Xiaohan got the message that he couldn"t find Bai Zhenzhen anywhere that she might live. She had really disappeared.
Ji Xiaohan didn"t expect this woman to hide herself so well. Was she trying to protect herself by breaking all co
ections? Or was it that she was completely ba
ed?
No matter what, the current news was useless.
Tang Youyou had returned to the Ji Family very early on. Seeing Ji Xiaohan enter with a tired and handsome face, her heart immediately ached.
"The children are back." Ji Xiaohan thought about how he promised his daughter that he would buy her toys in the morning. After a busy day, he finally remembered when he was almost home. He misspoke again and wondered if the little guy would be angry.
"I took them for a round in an amus.e.m.e.nt park near the school this afternoon!" Upon hearing that he was the first to ask the child about it, Tang Youyou immediately thought of his promise to his daughter and said with a smile.
After Ji Xiaohan heard this, he was slightly shocked. Then, he kissed her forehead with his thin lips: "You"re really considerate."
"I"m free, unlike you, I"m busy all the time!" Tang Youyouyang smiled.
"Where"s Grandma?" Ji Xiaohan suddenly asked.
Tang Youyou pointed upstairs. "He"s probably chatting with grandpa!"
Ji Xiaohan took off his jacket and handed it to Tang Youyou: "I"ll go up and find her!"
Ji Xiaohan didn"t go up the stairs but directly walked towards the stairs. The third floor was where the old man and the old lady stayed. They liked to be high up, but they also liked to be quiet.
Ji Xiaohanqing took out all the s.p.a.ce on the third floor, giving his grandparents the most comfortable environment.
Ji Xiaohan had changed into slippers. At this moment, the slippers could not make a sound while stepping on the thick carpet.
Therefore, the conversation that came out of the room also reached Ji Xiaohan"s ears.
Ji Xiaohan, who was about to push open the door, instantly froze and was completely dumbfounded.
He heard his grandmother crying, the sound of someone crying and cursing at the same time.
"If you want to go first, what should I do? I told you to train your body a long time ago, but you always say to be busy. No matter how busy you are, is there anything more important than your body? Now, the doctor says you"ll only be able to bear it for a few months. What do you want me to do? "
The old lady"s crying voice was still suppressed. It was clear how sad she was.
"Alright, don"t cry, don"t let the children hear you!" The old tutor"s tone was gentle as he comforted her.
"I can"t help it, I don"t want you to leave!" The old lady wiped her eyes as she spoke.
"We"ve lived long enough. How long has Nan been gone? I"ll go down and stay with him!" The lordmaster, however, had a very open-minded tone, neither sadness nor joy, and an att.i.tude of resigned himself to the fate of the heavens.
"What if you leave me and the children?" The old lady angrily questioned him again.
"The children will be filial to you, I"m not worried!" The old man said with a smile.
The old lady was silent for a long time before she could only stop scolding him. She sighed and said, "Alright then. It won"t change anything anyway. In these few months, we"ll get along well and not cause any more trouble!"
"You must keep this a secret. Don"t let the children know. They will be hurt." The old man immediately comforted her.
"Don"t worry, I told the children that you will live for a hundred years." The old lady finally smiled.
Ji Xiaohan"s body froze. What he said next, it was as if he couldn"t hear anything. His mind was completely blank.
He did not push the door again. Instead, he walked down the stairs with his legs frozen in place.
Is grandpa really so sick?
Why did he always tell his grandpa that he was in good health when he asked the doctor and his grandma? Was he trying to deceive him?
Ji Xiaohan"s eyes began to tear up. He didn"t expect that his grandparents had always been lying to him and even teamed up with the doctors to lie to him.
He had always thought that his grandfather was healthy, but it turned out that his grandfather only had a few months left.
It was like a bolt out of the blue, causing Ji Xiaohan to suffer a huge blow.
Tang Youyou took his jacket and went upstairs. Seeing Ji Xiaohan walking down in a daze, her beautiful eyes slightly startled. She stood at the foot of the stairs and looked up at him: "Why did you come down so quickly? Didn"t you have something to say to your grandmother? "
"Youyou!" The man stepped down the last flight of stairs and hugged her tightly. He buried his head in her neck and didn"t say anything for a long time.
