Chapter 651 Marriage
“Who is it?” Ji Jie was displeased, not satisfied with the chief butler’s impetuous way of doing things.
What was going on? The chief steward was usually a steady and mature person. Today, he was abnormally impatient.
If it was any other day, the general director would definitely notice Ji Jie’s dissatisfaction. However, his mind was filled with matters and he had no time to care about anything else. Hearing this, the general director only replied quickly, “She’s from India. Then Miss…” The general director’s breathing was a little rapid as he said in a shocked tone,” She looks almost the same as the fifth miss!”
Ji Jie was shocked.
“Where are they!” He held his cane and suddenly stood up.
She woke up too quickly and felt a little dizzy.
The chief steward pointed outside the door and said, “Just outside the house!”
“Quick! Quickly invite her in!”
The chief steward personally went to invite someone into the house. Ji Jie was different from usual and could not maintain the air of an elder. He was momentarily excited and followed behind with his cane, walking towards the door. After hearing this confusing conversation, the younger generation in the house saw the elder rush out of the house.
The group looked around at the others and realized that everyone in the room looked confused.
Qiao Sen put down his chopsticks and wiped his mouth. He could not be bothered to rest and ran back to Ji Chen’s house.
“Ah Qing!”
Before Qiao Sen reached Ji Chen’s door, he started to call for help.
Ji Qing quickly walked out of the house. She stood at the door and glared at Qiao Sen. “Why are you here again? Didn’t I tell you to sleep?”
Qiao Sen walked over and grabbed Ji Qing’s hand. He held his hand and walked into the room next door. He whispered to him, “If I’m not wrong, your aunt has been found.”
Ji Qing was stunned.
“What?”
“Just now, the head butler reported that a man and a woman requested to see you outside the door. The woman looks very similar to the former Miss Wu,” Qiao Sen said. “Isn’t Miss Wu your aunt?”
Ji Qing’s expression changed slightly and she was surprised. “Did you hear wrongly?”
“No.”
“I’ll go take a look.”
Ji Qing asked her mother to guard the room while she went to the main house with Qiao Sen. The main hall of the main house was filled with people. The moment Ji Qing entered the main hall, she saw the two strangers sitting beside Ji Jie. The man’s face was handsome and tough. One look and she could tell that he was not Chinese.
He was quite tall and exuded a strong aura.
As for that woman, she had a head of white hair. She had white hair draped over her shoulders, and her fair face looked very similar to the fifth aunt that Ji Qing had seen in the family photo alb.u.m. When Ji Qing saw this woman’s appearance, she had an idea.
Only then did she feel that this woman looked a little familiar, but she could not remember immediately.
On the other hand, Ji Yinbing and Yan Nuo stood up when they saw Ji Qing and Qiao Sen.
“Mr. Qiao? Madam Qiao?”
Yan Nuo spoke.
Ji Qing and Qiao Sen were dumbfounded.
They had met before?
Ji Yinbing suppressed the surprise in her heart and said, “We’ve met before.” Seeing that the two of them had yet to remember, Ji Yinbing explained further, “At Yusheng and Ah Sheng’s wedding.”
Upon hearing this, Qiao Sen and Ji Qing remembered what happened that day.
They had indeed seen each other before. They had even played cards together. However, at that time, Ji Qing did not recognize Ji Yinbing, mainly because her impression of the missing fifth aunt was very superficial. Last night, she heard her father mention her aunt. Before Ji Qing went to sleep in the morning, she specially went to look through the family photo alb.u.m on the side and remembered fifth aunt’s face.
“I really didn’t expect…” Ji Qing murmured, unable to hide her surprise.
Ji Yinbing smiled bitterly and said, “I really didn’t expect it.”
Everyone seemed to understand their conversation.
Seeing that Ji Qing knew Ji Yinbing, Ji Jie quickly called her over to sit.
The four youngsters sat facing each other. For a moment, they were speechless.
Ji Yinbing took a sip of green tea and heard Ji Qing ask, “What’s wrong with your hair?” Ji Qing noticed that the roots of Ji Yinbing’s hair were white, and it was clearly not dyed.
Ji Yinbing did not speak, but Ji Qing saw the man’s eyes darken.
Ji Jie had something on his mind. He could not be bothered with etiquette and interrupted their conversation. He said to Ji Yinbing, “Miss Ji, to be honest, your appearance…” Ji Jie sighed.” You look too similar to our Xiao Wu.”
Ji Yinbing turned to look at Ji Jie.
She did not explain anything and was not in a hurry to prove her ident.i.ty. She thought for a while, took off the string of beads on her wrist, and handed it to Ji Jie. She said, “This is the only relic my mother left for me. Take a look and see if you have any impression of it.”
To be honest, Ji Yinbing did not dare to believe that her mother was a child of the Ji family.
This Ji family looked like a wealthy family.
How could such a family lose their daughter?
Ji Jie took the bracelet. He narrowed his eyes and looked at it for a long time before saying, “This is…” He put down the bracelet and said to Ji Qing,” Ah Qing, call your third aunt.”
Ji Qing did as she was told.
While waiting for Ji Ru to rush over, Ji Jie said to Ji Yinbing, “I do have some impression of this thing, but our third sister has the best relations.h.i.+p with Xiao Wu. It’s safer to let her confirm it.”
“Okay.”
Ji Yinbing did not want to make a mistake, so she waited quietly for Ji Ru to rush over.
During this time, Ji Jie asked Ji Yinbing some questions.
“Where is Miss Ji from?”
Ji Yinbing said, “I’m from India.”
Ji Jie was clearly stunned. He was stunned for a moment before muttering, “India… Why is it so far away…”
He asked again, “How old is Miss Ji this
year?”
Ji Yinbing said, “I’m already 30.”
Ji Jie asked again, “Does Miss Ji have a job?”
“Yes.” Ji Yinbing added, “I do viral research.”
Ji Jie frowned and said, “I seem to have heard this name before.” At this moment, Ji Jie’s seventeen-year-old granddaughter, Ji Jiangwei, suddenly said, “I know you! Many years ago, you were a member of the Zhuang Long Research Inst.i.tute. You were part of the AIDS research back then.”
Ji Jie finally remembered this person.
He said, “Now that you mention it, I remember something. Two years ago, when I attended an international medical seminar, Old Chen even joked with me that Miss Ji has the same surname as our family. Could she be family?”
He looked at Ji Yinbing and sighed. “It’s a pity. At that time, I only treated it as a joke. I listened but forgot about it. If I had flipped through the reports and seen your photo, I wouldn’t have…” Ji Jie stopped talking.
How could there be so many ifs in this world?
They were destined not to meet because they should not be reunited.
Ji Yinbing listened quietly, feeling very emotional.
After more than twenty minutes, Ji Ru rushed over.
The moment she entered the house, she saw Ji Yinbing. When she saw the child, Ji Ru was first stunned, but then her eyes turned red. “Oh my G.o.d!” She covered her mouth and exclaimed in disbelief, “They look too similar…”
