Sensing that the lift stopped, Ji Lin reluctantly took his eyes off the phone and looked up to the door. With this one glance, he was completely dumbstruck.
Siyu had looked Ji Lin up before and naturally recognized him. Seeing Ji Lin"s baffled expression, she proactively took a step back. She motioned for them to go first as she waited for the next one.
"I- It"s okay…." Ji Lin forestalled and raised his hand to press the "open" b.u.t.ton. As soon as he spoke, he realized that he was unexpectedly so anxious that he stammered a bit. He hurriedly coughed, his gaze fixed to the ground as he continued, "Come in, there"s not a lot of people here anyway. "
a.s.sistant Xiao Ai, who was standing behind Ji Lin, immediately couldn"t help rolling her eyes.
Don"t think that she didn"t hear the excitement in Ji Lin"s voice, isn"t it just meeting with a girl face to face? Does he really have to forget himself like this? Xiao Ai felt like she was an old mother worrying about her own son who was fascinated by a beauty.
Seeing that Ji Lin insisted, Siyu didn"t act pretentious. She calmly thanked him and stepped in.
Compared to Ji Lin"s secret glances, Siyu was much calmer.
After all, Ji Lin could be regarded as her own son that she (as author) had created. What"s wrong with seeing him?
However, Siyu didn"t know, at this moment Ji Lin"s inner heart had long become unsettled…..
This was his sister…. And it"s the sister who he never met before in his life, the sister who he wouldn"t have known even existed if it had not been for an unintentional leak from Ji family"s old housemaid, ah…..
At first, Ji Lin could still restrain himself, only stealthily looking at the person next to him. Then he became bolder and bolder, his view was nearly fixed on Siyu"s side profile. While looking at her, he wondered why Siyu looked so pale. Was she not eating well or not sleeping well? Is she still seriously ill? What kind of medicine should he buy for her later? If he wanted to send it, in what manner should it be sent?
Unwittingly, little young master Ji"s thoughts had already gone astray, jubilantly making plans for his elder sister"s health for the next five years.
It"s not strange that Ji Lin thought over it a lot. He was really frightened the last time Siyu vomited blood. In the past, he only read from the data that Siyu had poor health. That day was the first time he actually realized that Siyu"s physique was truly poor. On top of that, she was as fragile as a thin piece of paper, shattering with just a little bit of force.
Ji Lin"s family financial circ.u.mstances were excellent. However, from childhood until now, he had never experienced any familial love. Father Fu was a successful businessman and was very busy. The time he spent at home in a year was less than one month; moreover, Ji Lin was intelligent and matured early. Since long ago, he knew that his father kept enough mistresses outside to form a football team. The reason why there hasn"t been any appearance of an illegitimate child who could shake his position was purely because Father Fu"s body had a physical defect. He was the only son his father would ever have in his life.
As for his mother…. Ji Lin smiled sarcastically. It should be said that his and Siyu"s mother was a qualified rich man"s wife, but not a qualified mother. It seemed like it was her life-long mission to marry into a rich and powerful family. To achieve this, she wouldn"t even hesitate to abandon her own biological daughter. When she had achieved what she wanted with the child in her belly, she also threw this "tool", Ji Lin, to the back of her mind. She went to various kinds of get-togethers every day. She was hardly home, not to mention raising Ji Lin up——that"s naturally the nanny"s job.
The so-called "family" was nothing much.
Therefore, no one knew how happy Ji Lin was when he coincidentally discovered that he still had a blood-related elder sister. He dreamed of having an ordinary family member who could occasionally care for him. No need to be concerned too much, just don"t treat him as nothing. It"s such an easy request, yet his parents never fulfilled it.
Thinking of this, Ji Lin"s eyes dimmed. But, when his gaze fell upon Siyu, his eyes brightened again.
Ji Lin had already heard from Yu Ling about Siyu"s perseverance in doing the shooting in spite of her illness. He thought with pride that it was no wonder that they were siblings. Their att.i.tude towards their work was exactly the same. So, Siyu would definitely accept him as her little brother!
Young Master Ji nodded in his heart with mysterious confidence.
And as the party receiving this scorching gaze, Siyu suddenly felt a chill down her back and shivered involuntarily.
This subtle movement was immediately caught by Ji Lin who had been keeping an eye on her.
In the next second, Siyu felt a shadow over her. Then a leather jacket carrying the owner"s body temperature was draped over her shoulders, enveloping her figure.
Siyu looked up in astonishment. However, this "Fellow Lei Feng1" had already withdrawn his hand and pulled his gaze away, appearing very serious.
Realizing that Siyu looked over, Young Master Ji couldn"t restrain the corner of his lips from rising. But his mouth still stubbornly a.s.sumed an indifferent manner: "If you"re cold, then you should wear more. I"ll give you this coat, you don"t need to return it. "
Siyu: …..But it"s summer and she"s hot.
At this moment, the lift reached the ground floor .Once the door opened, Ji Lin acted as if he was trying to hide something, taking the first step out and waving his hand at Siyu without looking back. The posture was very natural and unrestrained.
…….if you overlooked the fact that he was walking with the same hand and foot.
Siyu, who was left behind, suddenly felt a little bit worried: This kid… Couldn"t be a fool, right?
As soon as he left Siyu"s line of sight, Ji Lin couldn"t help smiling. Xiao Ai who witnessed the whole scene saw this and whispered: "Ji-ge, do you know what you look like right now? "
Ji Lin came to his senses and asked: " Look like what? "
Xiao Ai said: " Like a male peac.o.c.k that had opened wide its tail and still wants to force its wings into the face of others2. "
Ji Lin: "……" Ning Xiao Ai, you don"t want your six months" salary anymore, do you? !
1: Lei Feng – a model of altruism and dedication to others. For those who don"t know, Altruism is the belief or practice of disinterested and selfless concern for the well being of others.
2: all in all, Xiao Ai was saying that Ji Lin was showing-off too much, too narcissistic, etc. My fellow translator said it"s like if a guy comes to the date in a fancy car to impress the girl, but then he starts pressing on the horn as well, which is just… too much.
Riel: Oh poor little Ji Lin, you try to act cool but people thought you"re a fool ( ^▽^)σ)~O~). But worry not! This humble person will support you!
P.S. After all, you"ve made me laugh for the day! ヾ(≧▽≦*)o
Daed: Our dear little foolish siscon peac.o.c.k super cool idol ML, everyone.
