When Ji Xiaohan and Tang Youyou went downstairs, they coincidentally saw Lan Yue carrying Ji Xiaonai upstairs. The little guy was lying on his grandmother"s shoulder listlessly. When it saw Ji Xiaohan and Tang Youyou, it let out a weak cry and then closed its eyes and went to sleep.
Ji Xiaohan and Tang Youyou looked at each other and smiled.
"Didn"t your brother and Xiao Yan come to di
er?" Tang Youyou asked casually.
"My brother drank a little too much. He called and said he wouldn"t be coming over tonight!" Ji Xiaohan also answered in a low voice.
Actually, the reason why Ji Yueze didn"t go to Ji Family for di
er at night was because Bai Yiyan was afraid of meeting Lan Yue.
The old lady also called Ji Lin"s family and got them to come over, but they couldn"t find an excuse.
Ji Lin had booked a table for di
er tonight. He wanted Ji Yu
ing to come over for a meal, but was rejected by Ji Yu
ing. She said she was tired and wanted to rest early.
Ji Lin had already felt that this adopted daughter was out of his control. However, he didn"t want to force her since her value had already come into being. Ji Lin had successfully invested in that company and Ji Yu
ing had helped him accomplish this goal.
Ji Shangqing didn"t know that Ji Lin asked Ji Yu
ing to sleep with someone, so when he heard that Ji Yu
ing wasn"t coming to eat, he was slightly surprised. "She doesn"t look well today. Is she sick?"
"It shouldn"t be a big deal. Forget about her, let"s eat by ourselves." Ji Lin said lightly.
"Dad, why do you think Ji Xiaohan has the evidence but hasn"t filed a report with the police yet? Is he pla
ing to let his sister go?" Ji Shangqing was referring to the matter of Ji Yu
ing bribing that person and causing his brother"s death from the construction site. Ji Xiaohan should already have sufficient evidence in his hands.
"You are too naive. Don"t you see what he is waiting for?" Ji Lin laughed mockingly.
Ji Shangqing had been busy with his own company recently, so he didn"t have the extra mood to guess Ji Xiaohan"s ultimate goal. He glanced at his father and frowned, "I feel that he might still be thinking about his old friends.h.i.+p. After all, his sister took care of him before, he might let her go."
"Heh, I feel like he"s waiting for the old man to sink into the earth and become restless before settling this matter with us!" Ji Xiaohan was a filial grandson and had shown great kindness to the old man. He could be considered to have been personally brought up by the old man, and like Ji Nan back then, the old man had taught him personally. However, the old man had never personally taught him about this, and this was one of the things that Ji Lin hated the most.
Ji Shangqing"s expression changed: "He"s actually waiting for grandpa to pa.s.s away? Isn"t this a bit too much? Could he be hoping that the old man will die quickly and that he"ll be able to take control of the entire situation? "
"Maybe this is his goal!" Ji Lin purposefully misled his son in order to make his heart more fierce and ruthless.
As expected, Ji Shangqing"s face became unsightly. He grinded his teeth and cursed angrily: "That hypocrite Ji Xiaohan, with a fake face of filial piety and respect to grandpa in front of everyone, I didn"t expect him to have this kind of idea in his heart."
"You have to know, a person"s greed and ambition will grow along with the power in his hands. Ji Xiaohan would only want more than less." Ji Lin sneered with a deep expression that said he had already seen through the limits of humanity.
Ji Shangqing said angrily, "Even if the old man leaves, he won"t be able to take all his wealth for himself!"
"Don"t worry. With me here, he won"t be able to take everything away so easily." Ji Lin gritted his teeth and said bitterly.
The father and son duo finished the meal with resentment.
At that moment, in a five-star hotel, Ji Yu
ing had nothing to eat.
She stood by herself at the window, looking at the lights of the entire city. The resentment in her heart seemed to have calmed down a lot.
Just now, that disgusting man came to find her again. He was the one who opened this 5-star hotel, and Ji Yu
ing was also arranged to stay here. This meant very clearly that it would be more convenient for him to do anything to her.
To be honest, that old man treated her quite well. Whatever she wanted, he would give it to her generously.
However, in Ji Yu
ing"s heart, she was already dead. There were no waves, and she had nothing to live for.
Her heart had loved someone since she was young, and she valued i
ocence more than life. But now, she had lost her i
ocence, as if she had lost her life.
She sighed, closed her eyes, and tried to imagine what it would be like to fall out of here.
However, she knew that she couldn"t die at this moment. Even if she died, she wanted to drag someone down with her. She felt that she wasn"t the only one who deserved to go to h.e.l.l.
Ji Yueze and Bai Yiyan laid on the bed to rest for a few hours. When they woke up, it was already past nine at night. Both of them were sleeping heavily.
"What do you want to eat? I"ll do it! " It was not a realistic idea to order this dish out to eat. He could only cook for himself.
Bai Yiyan asked him softly while pinching the man"s finger.
"Lie down. I"ll go and see what I can eat!" Ji Yueze got off the bed before her and went out directly. He opened the fridge to check and found that there was nothing edible but some cold drinks.
Leaning on his back, Bai Yiyan glanced at him and said, "There"s nothing to eat. How about I go down and buy some?"
"Let"s go together!" Ji Yueze was worried that she would go down alone this late.
"It wouldn"t be appropriate for a famous celebrity like you to appear in a supermarket." Bai Yiyan"s popularity had fallen, so she felt that it was the best place for her to go out.
"No, I"ll get my a.s.sistant to send something over!" After Ji Yueze said this, he went to make a call.
Bai Yiyan had no choice but to let him make the call.
Half an hour later, the a.s.sistant arrived with a packed di
er.
"I want to go home tomorrow and buy some things for my mom!" Bai Yiyan said in a low voice.
"I"ll go back with you!" Ji Yueze thought about how he hadn"t seen his mother for so long. This boyfriend was a bit unformal.
"Are you coming with me?" Bai Yiyan was slightly surprised and also pleasantly surprised.
Actually, since their relations.h.i.+p had developed to this point, they were no longer as cautious as they were before. Now that Ji Yueze had asked to go together, Bai Yiyan was actually very happy.
"Yes, it"s time for me to see her!" Ji Yueze nodded.
"Alright then, let"s go together!" Bai Yiyan leaned her head against his shoulder and smiled.
Ji Yueze pulled her long hair: "What are you pla
ing to buy and send over? "Think about it tonight, and buy it tomorrow morning!"
"Actually, my mom loves money and jewelry the most!" Bai Yiyan laughed at herself.
"Mm, better than you!" Ji Yueze lightly scratched her nose. "You don"t live like a woman. You don"t have greed."
"No, I"m greedy. I want you!" Bai Yiyan immediately denied it.
