Chapter Forty-Eight: Old Lady Ji

"Doesn't grandma miss you too much, it just so happened that an old friend organized a charity dinner and invited me to participate, so I came back."

"Oh~ Grandma turned out to come back because she was going to a banquet."

Ji Yanqi pouted and pretended to be jealous, which made Mrs. Ji laugh.

"You girl."

After a pause, she asked again, "Is your uncle on a business trip, why didn't you go with him?" ”

At this time, the president, who was still on the plane, did not know that his mother had returned to China.

Ji Yanqi didn't dare to tell her grandmother the truth, nor did she dare to lie easily. It is said that women know women best, and her previous lies were seen through by her grandmother at a glance, even if those were white lies, grandma did not allow her to do these things against her will.

"We, the descendants of Yan and Huang, must be frank and unrestrained. If you don't want to say it, don't say it, and don't lie to please others. ”

This is a phrase that grandma often admonishes her.

But in addition to being frank and honest in front of her grandmother, Ji Yanqi can't say it in front of others, such as her uncle, and she can't say it if she wants to, and she holds it in her heart if she doesn't want to say it.

"What's wrong? Did he bully you? ”

Listening to the silence on the other side of the phone, Mrs. Ji was a little anxious.

"No, no, my uncle is good to me, grandma don't worry."

Ji Yanqi remembered that her grandmother had already known about herself and her uncle, and she couldn't help but feel a little ashamed in her heart.

"So where are you now, when will you come back and let grandma take a good look at you?"

"I'm at Pretty House, Grandma."

"Yes, I haven't seen a pretty girl for a long time, why don't you bring her to the house for dinner today."

Ji Yanqi had just turned on the speakerphone, and Su Liang could just hear Mrs. Ji's invitation.

She has loved to play with Ji Yanqi under Mrs. Ji's knees since she was a child, and Mrs. Ji Shi also took care of her in London, she was actually like her old man's own granddaughter.

"Grandma, I'll go back with Xiao Qi in a while." Su Liang said.

"Okay, okay, I'll let the kitchen hurry up and prepare the dishes that our two baby girls love to eat, you guys are busy, I won't bother you."

"Mm-hmm, goodbye grandma."

"Goodbye, grandma."

Listening to Mrs. Ji hanging up the phone, Ji Yanqi returned her phone to the page.

"Pretty and beautiful, let's two of us..."

"Huh?"

Ji Yanqi wanted to speak and stopped, and Su Liang couldn't help but be puzzled.

"We may not be able to do anything big."

She had a hunch that her grandmother must have known something, otherwise she would have no reason to fly back to City D for a charity dinner.

"Could it be that you are too worried, didn't grandma say that an old friend invited her to a banquet?" Su Liang was puzzled.

"It's a nine-hour flight from London to City D, and it's never possible for grandma to toss back and forth for so long because of a banquet."

"She'll just throw a charity dinner in London herself."

"That's right!" Ji Yanqi nodded vigorously.

Old Madam Ji is the only person in this world who can control Ji Yanqi, if she really doesn't let Ji Yanqi investigate, then Ji Yanqi may not be able to do anything.

"So what to do, when is the charity dinner? There's no way your grandma will leave after the party. ”

Seeing that the LED experiment is about to start in three days, Mrs. Ji will return to China at this time, so she won't really come to hinder Ji Yanqi.

"Since grandma is here, it is conservatively estimated that she will live for a month."

Anyway, she has to wait for her uncle to come back and see him before leaving.

"Then I'm afraid you won't be able to participate in this matter anymore."

"What then?"

Ji Yanqi sat on the sofa with a sad face, touching the ring with her left hand, not knowing what to do.

"Hey, there's a police uncle, what are you afraid of? Besides, even if you can't show up, we can still contact you online. In three days, we'll definitely be able to find the location of the bad guys' experiments. ”

Su Liang comforted Ji Yanqi like this, but she didn't know that she was about to face pressure from home.

The Ji family's ancestral house is lively tonight.

Miss Su hasn't been here for a long time, and Aunt Zhou has welcomed her very warmly. Ji Yanqi nestled beside her grandmother, her head resting on her grandmother's shoulder and chatting with her.

Regarding the confession of the president to her last night, Ji Yanqi didn't have time to tell Su Liang yet. When she heard that Mrs. Ji was discussing this matter with Ji Yanqi, she was surprised to get rid of all the apples that Aunt Zhou had just peeled for her.

No, Mrs. Ji actually knew about President Ji and Ji Yanqi for a long time, and Ji Yanqi still wanted to hide it from her, isn't this a big move.

"Pretty girl, don't leave tonight, you and Xiao Qi sleep in the same room. Tomorrow you and I will go to Ji's property to inspect and buy you two some gifts. ”

Mrs. Ji stretched out her hand and asked Su Liang to sit down beside her, and she took Su Liang's hand and chatted about family life again.

"Remember when you two were kids, you sat next to me like this, and I told you stories with a storybook. Now people are so old that they can't even read words clearly. ”

"Grandma, you don't look old at all, we will call you sister when we go out together tomorrow." Ji Yanqi joked.

"Yes, let's call my sister." Su Liang also echoed and said.

"You two little naughty ones can still make me happy as always, or you will all go back to London with me in a few days, and there will be no laughter and laughter of young people at home, and how lonely I am an old woman."

"Hey, that's so easy, it's not cold for us to find a wife for grandma."

That is, Su Liang dared to joke with Mrs. Ji like this.

Ah Chu and Mr. Henry were guarding outside the door, and Su Liang accidentally glanced at Mr. Henry and found that he was much better than Ah Chuzhuang. And he also peeked at Ah Chu from time to time, as if to attract his attention. Ah Chu's face was a little more serious than usual, and he just ignored Mr. Henry's eyebrows.

Taking advantage of the time when Mrs. Ji went to take medicine, Su Liang quietly asked Ji Yanqi, "Did Mr. Henry and Ah Chu have any conflicts?" ”

"Huh?"

Ji Yanqi thought for a while, "No." ”

How dare the bodyguards of the Ji family have a conflict with Mr. Henry.

"Look outside the door, Ah Chu's face is as cold as an ice cube, I've never seen him so cold."

Ji Yanqi turned her head to look at the door with Su Liang's words. Although I can only see Ah Chu's side face, it is indeed as cold as an iceberg as Su Liang said.

"What's going on?"

The two of them are the most favored people of the Ji family, and it stands to reason that they are the least likely to have a conflict.

Ji Yanqi felt that she needed to care about Ah Chu. Mr. Henry is so powerful, if he suddenly looks at Ah Chu unpleasantly, then he will not suffer.

"Let's go and ask at the door."

"Yes."

Su Liang also has this intention.

The two young ladies suddenly appeared from behind the two of them mysteriously, and Ah Chu looked at Ji Yanqi and Su Liang when he heard the sound, and his face was a little gentle.

"Hello two young ladies." Mr. Henry greeted the two of them.

"Hello Mr. Henry."

"Miss, are you still resting in the ancestral house tonight?"

Ah Chu asked softly.

"yes, grandma is back, where else can I go."

Ji Yanqi knew that Ah Chu was looking for something to say. It was also difficult for him, a man of few words, and a young lady with a broken mouth.

"Ah Chu, come with me." Ji Yanqi glanced at Mr. Henry and found that his eyes kept rolling on Ah Chu.

He wouldn't really want to fight Ah Chu.

"What's wrong, Miss?"

Ah Chu was confused by the two of them's pretentious expressions.

Ji Yanqi quietly asked him to lower his head, and then asked in his ear, "Ah Chu, tell me the truth, did you offend Mr. Henry somewhere." ”

Her voice was small, but Ah Chu could hear it clearly.

Is the contradiction between the two of them so obvious?

"Miss, you... How to see it. ”

Ah Chu straightened up, his face flushed slightly, and he asked a little embarrassed.

"Mr. Henry has been staring at you, isn't that trying to beat you up or what you're trying to do?"

As soon as Ji Yanqi said this, she could imagine the murderous aura in Mr. Henry's eyes. Ji Yanqi had an inexplicable fear of Mr. Henry from the first time she saw him, this unusually burly man still had a beard, which simply caused a great impact on her young heart. But now that Ji Yanqi has grown up and Mr. Henry has shaved his beard clean, she is not so afraid of this man.

"Miss, I didn't offend him, don't worry."

Ah Chu just wanted to ask Mr. Henry about some kung fu problems, who knew that he was such a hooligan and actually started his idea, so Ah Chu turned around and left without looking at him. It's just that I didn't expect that Mr. Henry would have the face to ask him to guard the door with him at night, and Ah Chu kept a cold face, and he didn't dare to do anything to him in public.

However, Ah Chu will not tell Ji Yanqi if he is killed, he is an iron-clad man, and he still wants this face.

"But there is one thing I have to tell you, the old lady came back to investigate the traffickers, so I advise you not to interfere anymore, and leave this matter to me."

Grandma didn't speak just now, it turned out that she wanted Ah Chu to tell her.

Ji Yanqi knows the seriousness of the matter, and she also knows her grandmother's temperament and methods. She looked at Su Liang and then at Ah Chu, and finally made up her mind.

"Then I'll leave this matter to you, and I will be notified in time if there is any news."

"Yes."

Ji Yanqi breathed a long sigh of relief and bent over as if relieved.

At the beginning, she was determined to investigate this matter thoroughly, but now she can only say to Ah Chu and leave it to you to do. Was she really willing to let go like this?

After dinner, Su Liang went to the room to code, and Ji Yanqi chatted with her grandmother in the living room.

After chatting for only ten minutes, she yawned, and Mrs. Ji couldn't help laughing, "Our little seven is a little pig, you have been prone to sleepiness since you were a child, and you still haven't changed when you're older." She patted Ji Yanqi's hand and noticed the ring on her hand.

"Hey~ Ji Yao, this bastard has finally done something that reassures me."

The ring on Xiao Qi's hand is Mrs. Ji's wedding jewelry, and she gave this ring to Ji Yao as early as when Ji Yao confessed her feelings for Ji Yanqi. Now that she saw it from Xiao Qi's hand, Old Madam Ji knew that her son must have shown his heart to Xiao Qi. In the past few years, Mrs. Ji has been anxious for him. Xiao Qi is actually a very insecure child, if you don't tell the truth, she will definitely be cranky.

Old Madam Ji suggested to Ji Yao many times, but this bastard just didn't listen, so she was angry and directly transferred the house in Shui Yun Mansion to Xiao Qi.

Even if Xiao Qi is allowed to return to China to work, then she can't let her baby continue to be bullied by this bastard in the ancestral house.
