“Hey, hey, hey, what’s going on? What are you father and son talking about? I don’t understand,” Ye Mingkong scratched her head, looking at her son with a bewildered expression, as if trying to see through him.
“Uh… this… that…” Ji Chengyun’s eyes frantically signaled her father to help say a few words. Being questioned by her mother like this was very scary, okay?
Ji Yunqi, who should have been on the same side as his son, turned his head away at this moment. As the saying goes, it’s better to die alone than to die with a comrade. As long as he pretended not to know, he wouldn’t be blamed by his wife.
With a sweep of his eyes, Ji Chengyun saw his father turn his head away. How could he not understand what that meant? He hadn’t even set up his father yet, but his father was already setting up his son?
“It’s nothing, Mom. It’s just an elder who wants to see me.”
“Oh~ Who is it? Is it someone we know?” Ye Mingkong became interested as soon as she heard Ji Chengyun’s words. If it was really an old acquaintance, they could catch up, but it also depended on who it was.
“Hurry up and say it, don’t just stand there.”
“Uh… it’s nothing, they should be here soon.”
Ye Mingkong’s eyes narrowed slightly, and her expression became a little dangerous. This made Ji Chengyun feel a chill down his spine. He was completely taking all of this for his father now!
Next time, he must let this old man treat him to a drink!
“Forget it, since I have nothing to do today, I’ll accompany you to see.”
The father and son exchanged glances, both showing indifferent expressions.
At most, he would be scolded. Ji Chengyun had already given up, and he didn’t care. In any case, he wouldn’t be the one to suffer physical pain in the end.
If it were in the past, his father would definitely kneel on the keyboard. But now~
As long as she didn’t give him any more younger siblings.
In the living room…
The family was sitting together watching TV, but it was unknown how many people were actually focused on it. In any case, Ji Yunqi himself couldn’t focus.
His mind was filled with what he should do when that woman arrived. He couldn’t get rid of his wife. Could it be that he had to wait to be seen, and then his wife would get angry and push him onto the windowsill again?
After thinking carefully, Ji Yunqi finally made a decision!
A true man knows when to bend and when to stand tall. What’s a scolding? He wouldn’t hide anymore. Let it be, it’s not the first time anyway…
*Knock knock knock~*
As a knock sounded, Ji Yunqi felt as if he saw the god of evil waving at him.
“I’ll go open the door…”
Ji Chengyun knew that his father was reluctant to face her, so he had to go himself. Moreover, that woman’s insight was too strong, and she understood his father very well. It was possible that she would notice something.
*Click~*
As the door opened, two beautiful women came into view~
One looked older, but perhaps because of good maintenance, she didn’t look like she was in her forties at all, as if she were only in her early thirties.
Even so, one could still see from her face the unparalleled beauty she possessed when she was young. In that era, she must have been a beauty who could bring down nations.
When his gaze shifted to the other person, Ji Chengyun’s face turned red after just one glance, all because the other person was smiling at him.
“Chengyun, long time no see~” The young girl stepped forward and greeted Ji Chengyun first, then looked at her mother.
“Mom, why aren’t you talking?” Zhang Xinrou looked at the young woman beside her with doubt.
However, the young woman ignored her and instead sized up the young man in front of her: “I was still thinking that you might not be able to take care of yourself. It looks like you’re doing quite well.”
“Uh…” Ji Chengyun’s eyes darted around, clearly a little flustered: “Aunt Luo, you two should come in first.”
……….
After Luo Yao entered the house, she casually glanced around the surroundings and found that it was not dirty or messy at all, which aroused a sense of doubt in her heart.
Although she didn’t have much contact with the Ji family, their relationship had always been good, just a little awkward. She knew this child, Ji Chengyun, quite well.
If no one was watching, the house would definitely not be this clean. Moreover, the arrangement of these tables and chairs, and even some small details, were exactly the same as how Ji Chengyun used to manage them…
It could even be said to be exactly the same, as if that guy hadn’t died and was still alive.
“Hey? Who are you two?” Zhang Xinrou’s confused voice reached Luo Yao’s ears at this moment. Following the sound, she saw a group of young boys and girls sitting on the sofa.
And that girl… why was she looking at herself with a silly smile?
And that smile was so… familiar…
It was exactly the same as the smile Ji Chengyun showed when she first met him, trying to ease the awkwardness.
It was clearly such a lewd expression, why didn’t she feel disgusted by it at all? Instead… a little nostalgic.
Besides this young girl, the boy next to her… why was he looking at her so unhappily? It seemed to be the first time she had met this kid, so why this inexplicable hostility?
It was like someone stole his wife.
“Um… Aunt Luo, let me introduce you. These two are my… junior male and female students. They are also living here for some reason.” In a moment of desperation, Ji Chengyun had to make up an excuse, hoping to fool this woman.
“Oh~ Really?”
Luo Yao was full of doubts at this moment. Although everything in this house seemed reasonable, a closer look would reveal many unreasonable aspects.
For example, Ji Chengyun’s attitude…
This kid rarely talked to her before. Most of the time, he chatted happily with her daughter, Zhang Xinrou. But now, he kept explaining many things to her, as if he were covering something up.
When something is abnormal, there must be a ghost. Luo Yao’s lips curled slightly. She wanted to see what this brat was hiding.
“So they are classmates. Hello, you can treat me as Ji Chengyun’s elder. If you are willing, you can also call me Aunt Luo like him.”
Ji Yunqi still had a smiling expression, but in his heart, he was already cursing. This woman actually asked him to call her Aunt Luo, which was like taking advantage of him for nothing!
Although he was unwilling in his heart, Ji Yunqi still gritted his teeth and endured it.
“Hello, Aunt Luo, and hello, classmate~”
Ji Yunqi perfunctorily greeted Luo Yao, then turned to show a smile to Zhang Xinrou.
But it was precisely this smile that made Luo Yao frown slightly.
This damn…
Why did his expression and demeanor remind her so much of Ji Chengyun?
They were both perfunctory to her, but her daughter was very enthusiastic. Did she really think she didn’t know what they were up to?
And this little classmate, is that how you look at a classmate? Why does it look like you’re… looking at prey?
“Cough cough…”
Luo Yao took a step forward unobtrusively, blocking her daughter behind her, feeling a little scared.
Why was this place so creepy? Even though that dog man was dead, her daughter was still being coveted when she came here, and what’s more, this person was an outsider!
