85 Being Friendly
Ji Jun called Yu Han. âAre you leaving? Do you need someone to pick you up?â
âNo need. Iâve already set off. Iâll take a taxi there.â Yu Han hurriedly rejected.
Ji Jun recalled that he could vaguely hear her laughter when he picked up the call. âWhy do you sound so happy?â
âHahaha, no. I was just reading the news online. The netizens are too talented.â Yu Han showed him the article she had just seen from the marketing account. âThey actually said that we are father and daughter acting partners.â
!!
Ji Junâs face darkened. He was very sure that there was something wrong with the netizensâ judgment this year. He was only five or six years older than Yu Han. How did they become father and daughter acting partners? Could it be that his face looked very old?n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Ji Jun couldnât help but turn on his cell phoneâs camera and take a look. He only relaxed after confirming that he was still in his prime and still as handsome.
Therefore, as expected, this batch of netizens did not have good taste. If a handsome man and a beautiful woman wanted to form a partnership, they would be a couple partners. How could they be father and daughter partners?
Ji Jun suddenly paused. What was he thinking?
He could not help but fall into deep thought.
Old Master walked around the living room with his walking stick and glanced at the clock from time to time. âWhy isnât she here yet?â He didnât forget to bang his walking stick on the floor.
Ji Jun was woken up by that voice. When he came back to his senses, he reminded his grandfather, âOur agreed time is six oâclock sharp. Itâs only half past five now.â
Old Master glared at him. âDonât I know the time? Iâm just nagging. Why are you in such a hurry?â At this point, he glared at Ji Jun, who was sitting peacefully on the sofa. âWhy are you so stupid? Why canât you say that youâll pick her up at six oâclock?â
Ji Jun was speechless. âGrandpa, have you forgotten that I just got off the plane too?â
âIsnât that even more of a coincidence? You can pick her up along the way.â Old Master Ji looked at him with an expression that said, âYou canât do this.â âBack then, when I was wooing your Grandma, I wanted to see her whenever I had the chance. I had to create an opportunity even when I didnât have the chance. In the end, you didnât seize the opportunity in front of you. You deserved to be single for so many years.â
Mrs. Ji grumbled, âDidnât I say that the two of them are just friends? Why are you so anxious? What if the girl misunderstands?â Anyway, she did not like her.
Ji Jun thought to himself: Youâre thinking too much. Yu Han wonât misunderstand this.
Old Master Ji turned his attention to her. âDonât pull a long face. Weâre holding a thank-you banquet today, not to collect debts from her. Itâll seem too rude if you keep this on.â
âAlright, like you said, I will show my elegance as the host.â Mrs. Ji squeezed out a fake smile, looking as insincere as possible.
Suddenly, the sound of a car came from outside. Old Master Ji shivered. âIs our guest here?â
The servant went to take a look when she heard that. She came back and said happily, âOld Master, our guest is here. Itâs a very beautiful young lady.â
Old Master Jiâs eyes lit up. He walked to the door with his walking stick. âThen we have to welcome our guest.â
Since Old Master Ji had already made a move, Mrs. Ji could only follow him unwillingly.
Yu Han alighted from the taxi with two gifts in her hands. She turned around and saw the guard at the door leaning out to size her up. âAre you Miss Yu?â
âYes, I am.â Yu Han waved at him politely.
The guard revealed a warm smile. âWelcome to the Ji Family.â At the same time, he opened the big iron door. âYou may enter.â
âAlright, thank you.â Yu Han walked in smoothly. After passing by a small garden and turning past a bunch of bamboo, her vision suddenly cleared up and she finally saw the door of the villa.
She looked up and saw the long-legged and tall Ji Jun at first glance. He was wearing a jade-white top and black casual pants, looking simple and refreshing. Beside him was an old man with gray hair and a rather serious expression. There was also a graceful and noble lady, but this lady did not look too good.
Yu Han instinctively revealed a smile and was about to greet them when she saw the lady, who did not look too friendly, suddenly push aside the old man in front and rush over to grab Yu Hanâs hand. She said enthusiastically, âAiya, youâre the girl who helped our brat. Youâre so beautiful.â
Yu Han was stunned. This was Ji Junâs mother? Why was she so friendly? Her personality was a little different from Ji Junâs.
