Chapter 102: That Damn Old Man…
Ji Yunqi’s expression at this moment was as uncomfortable as if she had eaten a baobab. She never expected to encounter this damn old man here!
It’s so hateful!
With Ye Lingyu appearing here, Ji Yunqi couldn’t understand anything. She had kindly advised them and repeatedly told them to wait another half month before coming.
As a result, these two old guys still came so quickly, and the key point was that they didn’t inform her and just sneaked over.
Furthermore, Kyoto is not close to Rongcheng. The fact that they could appear here now indicated that they had rushed all night.
At this moment, Ji Yunqi didn’t know what to say. Should she acknowledge him or ignore him?
If she acknowledged him, she really didn’t have the mood to deal with this person, because Ye Lingyu’s arrival had completely disrupted her original plan, and now she would have to re-plan.
But if she ignored him, wouldn’t it seem impolite?
After all, they would eventually recognize each other. If, after recognizing each other, this damn old man remembered that she ignored him today, he would probably make a fuss again.
…
“Ah, haha, hello, old sir~” Ji Yunqi finally decided to respond, to avoid this damn old man being sarcastic again.
“Hehe, classmate, can I ask you something?” Ye Lingyu was having mischievous thoughts again, wanting to see if this cute girl knew his grandson.
Although the possibility might not be very high, what if she did?
What if she not only knew him but was also very familiar with him?
“You may ask.” Ji Yunqi showed nothing on her face, appearing completely calm and composed, as if nothing could change her mood.
“Classmate, do you know a student named Ji Chengyun at your school?”
Ji Yunqi trembled all over. She knew this damn old man had no good intentions. As expected, he was already inquiring about her son. He probably wanted to find her son, and then find out where they were living.
“Ahaha, I know, I know. Why are you asking about this?”
“You know him? That’s great. Classmate, do you know where he lives? Can you tell me?”
Ji Yunqi forced a smile on her face, but in her heart, she was already cursing. This damn old man is really persistent. Even if I know him, can I tell you?
How is this possible? What a joke!
“Old sir, I do know him, but we’ve only met by chance, we’re not that ~ familiar, so I really don’t know where he lives~”
Hearing this, Ye Lingyu was immediately disappointed. He finally caught someone who knew him, but she didn’t know.
“Old sir, why are you asking where he lives? Can’t you just call him?” Ji Yunqi wanted to see what else this damn old man could do.
If he doesn’t make a phone call, it’s because he doesn’t want them to know. Since he doesn’t want them to know, he definitely won’t make a phone call!
“Sigh~ To be honest, he is my grandson, and I came to see him, but I want to give him a surprise, you know?”
What a surprise!
I’d say it’s a fright. This damn old man doesn’t even know his daughter has become his son, and he’s still talking about surprises. It will be fun to give him a fright later.
“Moreover, my grandson is getting married, can I, as his maternal grandfather, not come?”
“Old sir, if your grandson is getting married, he will definitely notify you. Can’t you just wait patiently for the time to come?” Ji Yunqi advised him again from the perspective of an outsider.
At this moment, Ye Lingyu looked at Ji Yunqi with a strange expression: “Little girl, my son-in-law told me the same thing, but I haven’t seen them for a long time, and I miss them, so I came early. Do you know anyone else who knows my grandson?”
Ji Yunqi’s heart skipped a beat. This damn old man still hasn’t given up?
“Old sir, I’m afraid I don’t know. Why don’t you ask someone else?” How could Ji Yunqi tell him? She wasn’t ready yet.
However, since these two people could come here, they must have been prepared not to find anyone for a while, so she didn’t need to worry too much.
“Sigh~ Alright, I guess this is all I can do for now.”
………….
After class, Ye Lingyu and Jiang Hua didn’t leave the classroom. Instead, Ji Yunqi quickly ran away. She didn’t want to stay with these two people any longer.
“Hey, do you know those two old people? I saw you chatting so happily with them, hehe.” Jiang Youwei looked at Ji Yunqi beside him and teased her. He didn’t recognize Ye Lingyu and Jiang Hua, otherwise, he would be laughing even more happily now.
Ji Yunqi didn’t give Jiang Youwei a good look. She was very annoyed now and had to think carefully about how to explain her current situation to these two.
“Don’t interrupt. Those two are my father-in-law and mother-in-law. I need to think about how to explain my current state to them.”
Jiang Youwei was immediately amused when he heard this. So that’s what it was all about~
“Hahaha, so that’s how it is~ Then you’re really unlucky to have bumped into them. Why don’t you just tell them directly?”
Ji Yunqi shook her head: “You don’t understand. They are already old. If I tell them all at once without any preparation, what if they get too emotional?”
Jiang Youwei tapped Ji Yunqi’s head with a look of contempt.
“Why are you tapping me?” Ji Yunqi frowned prettily and looked up at Jiang Youwei.
With just one glance, Jiang Youwei was stunned for a moment. At this moment, he suddenly had a sense of unreality, as if…
At this moment, Ji Yunqi was not a friend he had known for many years, but like… his beloved daughter whom he had raised for many years… In a blur, Jiang Youwei unconsciously raised his hand and rubbed Ji Yunqi’s head.
Then…
“Ah!!!!”
“Ouch, ouch, ouch, I was wrong, I was wrong~~~”
Ji Yunqi angrily twisted the other person’s obnoxious hand behind his back. She never expected this scoundrel to dare to touch her head!
What’s more, he had that kind of expression like he was looking at a child. What was this supposed to mean? Did he consider himself his daughter?
Hamster, how dare you!
“Next time, don’t make that expression again, understand?!”
“Understood, understood, understood~~” At this moment, Jiang Youwei had no choice but to obey Ji Yunqi’s wishes, otherwise, who knew if he would be beaten again.
“That’s more like it~” Ji Yunqi finally released Jiang Youwei’s hand, after all, she couldn’t go too far, right?
Seeing that Ji Yunqi still looked troubled, Jiang Youwei could only comfort her: “Okay, okay, don’t think about it anymore. You’ve had a whole day of classes. I’ll take you to eat. You’ll have the energy to think after you’re full, right?”
“Fine, you’re treating, okay~”
Seeing his old friend acting like a pure young girl, he could only shake his head helplessly and didn’t refuse. However, he would have to be more careful in the future.
What if she really took her as a daughter someday?
…………
Ji Yunqi and Jiang Youwei didn’t eat at school. Instead, they left school and found a private dish restaurant nearby.
Although these small restaurants are not particularly eye-catching in big cities, their taste is first-class. These small restaurants are the places that carry the beauty and charm of a city.
To taste the unique flavor and specialties of a region, only such small restaurants can do it, as they are all run by ordinary people.
And when it comes to the authority of cuisine, countless ordinary families have the most representative and authoritative voice.
“This, this, and this… just these few, no need for others.” Ji Yunqi held the menu, ordered a few dishes that she and Jiang Youwei both liked, and then put down the slightly greasy menu.
“It’s been a long time since we’ve eaten together, I really miss it,” Jiang Youwei sighed.
“Yes, the last time it was just the two of us was in my previous life, haha.”
Suddenly, Ji Yunqi’s gaze swept over to a few men at the next table who were drinking! This made her suddenly want to drink too. How long has it been? What’s wrong with having a drink?
Since there were no classes in the afternoon, and Jiang Youwei was the same, if they didn’t have classes in the afternoon, what was wrong with them drinking a little?
Their respective wives didn’t object before, so they shouldn’t object now, right?
“Old Jiang, should we… have a couple of drinks?”
With Ji Yunqi’s suggestive look, Jiang Youwei understood her thoughts. If it were in the past, he would have agreed immediately without a second word.
But looking at Ji Yunqi’s current loli appearance, can she really drink?
“Your body now, are you an adult yet?”
Ji Yunqi’s originally upturned lips instantly drooped: “What do you mean? Of course, I’m an adult. Don’t worry, I’ll just taste it, I won’t drink much.”
After thinking for a moment, Jiang Youwei still nodded. That’s true, after so long, what’s wrong with drinking a little?
“Drink, just a little, it’s a small problem~”
“That’s more like it~”
As the dishes were served, Jiang Youwei also bought two bottles of liquor from nearby.
Just as Ji Yunqi was about to open a bottle and finish it, Jiang Youwei stopped her.
“What are you doing?”
Jiang Youwei waved a finger in front of Ji Yunqi’s eyes, then took a paper cup from the side and carefully poured a small amount of liquor into it.
The amount of liquor was very little, about the same as some people’s daily intake~
“Here, for you, you can only drink this much!”
Ji Yunqi picked up the paper cup, examined it carefully, and then pouted her cat-like face, looking at Jiang Youwei unhappily.
“What are you doing? Are you feeding a sparrow?”
“You can only drink this much now, what if you get drunk afterwards?”
Ji Yunqi didn’t care about that anymore. She snatched the wine bottle. It didn’t matter if she got drunk, since Jiang Youwei was by her side.
Even if he got drunk, he would take her home, even if he got drunk too!
They would walk home slowly together…
“I don’t care, I want to drink!”
“You…”
Before Jiang Youwei could stop her, Ji Yunqi had already downed it in one gulp.
A burning sensation instantly hit her, and Ji Yunqi’s small face instantly turned rosy.
“Cough, cough, cough…”
“Woohoo, refreshing~”
Ji Yunqi knew that just drinking alcohol could lead to getting drunk easily, so she didn’t keep drinking. She also picked up some food with her chopsticks and put it in her mouth.
After observing carefully for a while, seeing that Ji Yunqi didn’t collapse on the spot, Jiang Youwei was relieved. It seemed that her current body’s alcohol tolerance was still good!
With this, he could also drink heartily.
“Cheers!”
“Cheers!”
As the two glasses of wine clinked together, the scene from years ago seemed to return to this time and space. Jiang Youwei was very happy. He hadn’t felt this exhilarated in a long time.
Drinking once made him feel as if he had become decades younger. At this moment, he didn’t seem like a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties, but a young and vigorous fellow.
And the person beside him wasn’t an 18-year-old college student, but his best friend.
Perhaps, this is the best way for men to communicate.
Of course, the premise is that their alcohol tolerance is good and they don’t act crazy when drunk~
“So enjoyable, so enjoyable~”
“Hahahaha~”
Of course, Ji Yunqi and Jiang Youwei were clearly not people with good alcohol tolerance……
Now it was late at night, and Jiang Youwei had already paid for the meal from the beginning, so there was no need to worry about not knowing how to pay while being tipsy.
On the road in the dark night…
Two figures, one big and one small, were staggering down the street.
They didn’t know where they were going, only that they were heading towards a familiar place.
When they passed by a small old town district…
“Hey! Hamster! Come home with Grandpa~~”
Saying that, Ji Yunqi bent down and was about to pick up the toad in front of her and take it away, but Jiang Youwei kicked it away first.
“Where? Where is the hamster? Let me see, hehe~”
Ji Yunqi suddenly couldn’t see the “hamster” and got anxious, pushing Jiang Youwei: “It’s all your fault, you scared the hamster away!”
Even though he was drunk, Jiang Youwei still heard the unhappy tone from the person beside him. He stepped forward, patted her shoulder, and comforted her: “It’s okay~ Look there, it’s Huahua~”
Ji Yunqi followed Jiang Youwei’s finger and looked down. She saw a green frog on the ground looking at them motionlessly.
Ji Yunqi didn’t hesitate and directly stepped forward, grabbed it, and put it in her pocket.
“Hehe, this is mine. I’ll show it to Xiao Ye later, he’ll definitely like it~”
Although both of them were not very clear, their direction of travel was entirely towards home. Even when drunk, they could still accurately find their way home.
During this period, who knows how many people had mischievous thoughts.
After all, a young and beautiful college student walking on the street with a foolish drunkard, looking completely unguarded, made too many people want to make a move.
However, all these people were driven away by someone who had been following them all along.
Looking at the two “drunkards” in front of him, Xia Zijie suddenly recalled the scenes from his youth.
Back then, these two were also like this. They got drunk and each took two toads back as gifts for their wives, and as expected, they were all kicked out.
At that time, he just found it funny, but now…
Good, that’s great.
When someone gets kicked out, he can pick them up and take them home~
