[He Zhou: Are you leaving?]
[Ji Yu: Let's go.]
[He Zhou: Well, I need to contact you.]
"You seem a little reserved."
Hearing this, Ji Yu looked up at the man sitting across from him—
I saw him smiling, sitting gracefully, with his hands clasped in front of him.
His short black hair was brushed back, wearing a pair of rimless glasses, and his exquisite suit made him look unspeakably refined and dignified, with an outstanding temperament.
This man is Xue Zong, Ji Yuansheng's confidant, and he didn't know whether it was Ji Yuansheng or Wen Yuwei who came to pick him up, so he didn't ask.
The night he made his decision, he replied to Wen Yuwei, telling her that he would go back for the National Day.
The original owner hasn't been back for so many years, and with the information provided by He Zhou's friendship, he doesn't worry about being discovered, as long as he behaves a little coldly.
"Is there anything you want to ask? You can ask me." Xue Zong said again.
Ji Yu thought for a while and said, "Is there anything I need to pay attention to when I go back?"
Xue Zong smiled gently: "There is nothing special to pay attention to. Mr. Ji is very tolerant, and Mrs. Wen is also very kind. Ji Heng may speak more directly, but you don't need to pay attention to him."
Ji Yuansheng is tolerant
If Ji Yuansheng had been tolerant, would he have done so well
Ji Yu didn't say anything, he nodded and asked again: "Is there any forbidden place that I can't go to?"
Xue Zong replied: "No, you can go wherever you want."
"Okay, thank you." Ji Yu smiled back.
He didn't go back this time for other reasons, mainly because he wanted an identity.
This identity will bring him a background and a backer, not only to protect him, but also to protect the small universe, and this thing belongs to the original owner, so he feels very at ease.
"Is there anything else you want to ask?" Xue Zong asked again.
"And you?"
Ji Yu raised his chin towards him, "Is there anything I should pay attention to when getting along with you?"
The arc of Xue Zong's lips was even higher. He touched his glasses, and the eyes hidden behind the lenses were not very clear.
"You don't need to pay attention to me."
Ji Yu rested his chin with one hand and tapped his chin with his fingertips.
He looked straight at Xue Zong, turned away after a long time, and looked at the scenery outside the car window.
He couldn't see through the man in front of him.
From the first moment I saw him when I opened the door, he seemed to be wearing a mask. Although he was smiling and his tone was gentle and elegant, it couldn't reach the bottom of his heart. Instead, it gave him an inexplicable sense of alienation and hypocrisy.
Intuition told Ji Yu to stay away from this man.
He didn't say anything, and Xue Zong didn't say anything.
Ji Yu felt that the atmosphere in the car was a bit awkward, but Xue Zong was able to handle it with ease. He held the coffee in one hand, flipped through the report with the other, and occasionally circled something with a pen, with a calm expression on his face.
Xue Zong didn't put away his things at a leisurely pace until he reached his destination.
He looked at Ji Yu and said: "The housekeeper will take you to the place where you live. Mr. Ji should be in the company at this time. He usually comes back around noon. The flowers in the garden are blooming beautifully. If you are bored, you can go there Check it out, I think you'll like it."
Ji Yu: "Okay, thank you."
Xue Zong smiled: "You're welcome."
The two got out of the car together and separated after getting off.
Seeing Xue Zong leave, Ji Yu heaved a long sigh of relief, he took out his mobile phone and sent a message to He Zhou—
[Ji Yu: I'm here.]
[He Zhou: Good.]
After posting, Ji Yu wanted to laugh a little bit, always felt that he and He Zhou had some underground party connection, as if they were doing something shady.
In fact, it was nothing at all, but He Zhou felt that he couldn't handle it, so he said to keep in touch.
He didn't ask him to report in real time. He was nervous and couldn't help sending him a message, as if doing so would give him some confidence.
The butler leading the way reached out his hand and signaled, "Master, this way please."
Ji Yu put away her phone and followed quickly: "Okay."
After bypassing the fountain in the vestibule, he followed the butler and entered the door. As soon as he entered, he saw a very young man sitting on the sofa on the left. The other party rested his chin on one hand, and his eyes were undisguised, just looking at him so directly.
Seeing that four words popped up subconsciously in Ji Yu's mind: the visitor is not kind.
The butler stopped and greeted the people on the sofa.
Ji Yu naturally also stopped.
The man glanced at the things in the hands of the housekeeper and the servant, and said, "Go up and tidy up first." Then he looked at Ji Yu and said, "Ji Yu, since we met, let's chat first?"
Ji Yu smiled, nodded and said hello, "Ji Heng."
"Talk?"
"Can."
Ji Yu walked to the other side of the sofa and sat down without changing his face, then raised his eyes and looked at the half-brother who was the same father as the original owner without any trace.
Ji Heng is not good-looking, he can only be described as delicate, but he is better than good clothes, and he has the imposing manner from childhood, so he still looks eye-catching.
but…
He seemed very hostile to himself.
Ji Heng's tone was mocking: "It's been so many years, why did you come back suddenly today?"
Ji Yu remained calm on the surface, but was slightly surprised in his heart.
Isn't it said that wealthy people are the best at hiding their emotions? Why is this man's expression and speech so straightforward, as if he was afraid that he would not feel his hostility.
Ji Yu replied: "This is my home, I can come back whenever I want."
Ji Heng's eyes teased: "Didn't you swear at the beginning to sever ties with your father? Didn't you rather die than come back?"
Ji Yu: "..."
No, does this person know how to chat
He said confidently: "At that time, I was still young, and my child's words were unscrupulous."
At that time, the original owner was only ten years old, and only in the third grade of elementary school, so it is not an exaggeration to say that there is no limit to childish words.
Ji Heng paused for a moment, then laughed softly: "I still think you are tough, but it's just mediocre."
Ji Yu felt the sarcasm in Ji Heng's words, he rejected it in his heart, and nodded with unchanged expression: "Yeah, what are you going to do? You can't eat it."
"If you are not tough, you can live in a mansion, have countless servants, be the young master of a wealthy family, and be sought after by countless people. How good it is not tough—" He slowed down his speech and looked straight at Ji Heng, "This I think you understand better than me."
Ji Heng and Wen Yuwei were born and raised by Ji Yuan in another courtyard for ten years.
One has been an underground mistress for a full ten years, and the other has been an illegitimate child for a full ten years. It took ten years of shameful life to wait for everything today.
And he doesn't have to bear it for a day, he just needs to bow his head to Ji Yuansheng and admit his mistake.
Ji Heng's expression turned ugly: "Do you know what you're talking about?"
Ji Yu asked back, "What did I say?"
Ji Heng pursed his lips tightly, his eyebrows and eyes darkened.
He put his five fingers together and grabbed the sofa under his hand with all his strength, but he let it go quickly, and his face became much calmer: "You are quite good at talking."
"Okay."
Ji Yu said impatiently, "Is there anything else to say? If not, I'll leave first."
Ji Heng laughed, with a little evil hidden in his eyes: "Why didn't the child come back? Why don't you show it to Dad?"
Personal attacks are fine, but you still talk about children
Hearing this, Ji Yu looked at Ji Heng with some incomprehension: "I thought your rank would be higher."
"Um?"
Ji Yu said again: "It looks like it's just mediocre."
As he spoke, he tapped his temple with his index finger, and he no longer concealed the contempt for Ji Heng in his eyes, "I suspect that you have something wrong here, and you can't even speak here."
Ji Heng suddenly laughed loudly: "No need."
He stretched out his index finger, pointed down, and stared at Jiyu, "In this place, you can say whatever you want, there is nothing to be taboo about. I can tell you very directly-I hate you and despise you , very, very disgusted with you."
Ji Yu: "..." All right, tear your face if you want to.
"Oh, I hate you too, and I even think you're an idiot." After saying that, Ji Yu rolled his eyes at Ji Heng, no longer interested in continuing the conversation, stood up and was about to leave.
But the moment he turned around, Ji Yu saw someone sitting at the table on the left hand side of the door drinking coffee quietly.
That person was obviously an Alpha, even when he was sitting, his figure was still straight and straight, with broad shoulders and back.
He was dressed in white, wearing a pair of glasses, and had slightly long curly hair, slightly brown in color, and looked gentle and affectionate in the light. He picked up the coffee and took a sip. He seemed to have not heard the sound, so he glanced at them strangely.
When he turned his head this way, Ji Yu immediately recognized him.
Ji Yuansheng.
The original owner's biological father.
Ji Yuansheng said, "Why didn't you say anything?"
Ji Yu stood where he was, staring at Ji Yuansheng blankly.
His mind was already filled with bullet screens of "Pills" and "Ji Heng cheated on me", and didn't Xue Zong say that he should be in the company at this time? !
Seeing Ji Yu looking at him motionless, Ji Yuansheng looked puzzled: "Don't you know me?"
Ji Yu: "..."
Ji Yuansheng put down his coffee, and said again: "Why didn't you bring the child back for me to see? I really want to know this question."
Ji Yu was still a little dazed.
Ji Yuansheng just turned 40 this year, but he still looks very young. He has an outstanding appearance, but he is kind of gentle and handsome, without a bit of hostility. It makes people completely unreminiscent of the man described in the data who is sure to revenge and kill decisively.
He looks more like an artist with a paintbrush in hand.
Ji Yu came back to his senses, coughed low to cover up his panic, and said, "After all, I haven't been back for so many years, I... want to come back and have a look first."
Ji Yuansheng said again: "Will you take him over after watching it?"
"..."
"I'd love to meet him."
Ji Yu was stunned, not knowing how to answer.
The information He Zhou gave only said that Ji Yuansheng had an eccentric temperament, but he didn't say why he was eccentric. Now he has seen it, and he is really not tactful at all! Playing straight balls like crazy all the way, how can this be called
Ji Yuansheng said again: "Speak directly if you have something to say."
Ji Yu thought for a while, and said: "...then I will bring him with me next time I come."
"Where is it? Let Xue Zong pick it up."
Ji Yu: "..."
He finally felt what it means to be speechless. He didn't want Ji Yuansheng to see Xiao Universe so he deliberately didn't take him with him. As a result, the current situation caught him off guard.
Ji Heng came over: "I'm afraid we will harm him."
Ji Yuansheng glanced at Ji Heng, then said to Ji Yu: "No, it's not necessary."
Ji Yu was completely confused.
He really convinced the original owner's biological father in front of him, did he not care at all about his "stupid" just now and the scolding battle with Ji Heng
Just as he was looking at the two of them and racking his brains to answer, a man dressed as a housekeeper walked in from outside.
He walked to Ji Yuansheng's side and said, "General He's son, He Zhou, is waiting outside now, saying he wants to visit you."
Ji Yuansheng nodded: "Let him in."
After speaking, he raised his chin toward Ji Yu and Ji Heng, "You two go entertain him, I'm not free."
Ji Heng: "Okay."
Ji Yu: "..."
There is business to do, and Ji Yuansheng no longer pesters the topic of children.
Seeing him pick up his things and go upstairs, Ji Yu was greatly relieved. He has never been more grateful to He Zhou for his appearance than now, and he has relieved the big siege.
Ji Heng put his hands in his pockets and looked outside the door: "You washed all the marks, and He Zhou can rush over to support you."
He turned his head and looked at Ji Yu with a sneer, "Unexpectedly, you are a good trick."
Ji Yu looked up at him: "Yes, are you envious?"
Ji Heng choked and laughed again.
Ji Yu didn't bother to talk to him, his mind was in a mess right now.
Ji Yuansheng is far from the expected image, and the family style of this family is also strange, these things are not in the data, after all, the person who investigates does not have contact with himself.
These are still secondary.
The most important thing is that Ji Yuansheng became interested in the small universe when he first came to Ji Yuansheng, which made him startled.
The hand hanging by his side was clenched tightly, Ji Yu looked straight out of the door.
It wasn't until he saw He Zhou's tall figure appearing in his sight from a distance that he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and his clenched hands were not so tight.
He Zhou was brought over by the housekeeper, and Ji Heng went up to greet him: "He Zhou, long time no see."
He Zhou nodded at him: "Long time no see."
Looking at Ji Yu again, "What a coincidence."
Ji Yu coughed lightly, and looked at He Zhou with a restrained smile: "Yes, brother, what a coincidence.",
