Chapter 88 An acquaintance visits
"Who are you talking about?"
When Ji Yingchen and Ji Huaiying received the call from the gate, they had just returned from picking fruit with their sister.
The person at the gate said that someone claiming to be an old friend of the Ji family came to visit, and he brought his family with him.
The man was Ji Rushong, Ji Tiantian’s father.
Hearing this name, the three members of the Ji family frowned.
Given the Ji family's character, they would not come to Y Province to live permanently before the end of the world. After all, Kyoto is more prosperous.
After the end of the world, with the strength of the Ji family, they could not come to Y Province.
But this person showed up at the gate of his own base with his family.
What else can I do now? Since they are here, I can only go and greet them in person.
When the three arrived at the gate of the base, two off-road vehicles were parked there.
The three members of the Ji family, including Ji Tiantian, were huddled in the back seat and shivering.
There were eight people in total in the two cars, and five of them were tall and strong. They looked tough and did not look like Ji family bodyguards.
"Uncle Ji, I didn't expect to see you here again." As Ji Yingchen's words rang out, the gate of the Ji family base opened.
Three people from the Ji family came out.
Seeing the three people from the Ji family, Ji Rushong, his wife and daughter stopped shaking and immediately opened the car door and ran to them.
"Yingchen, it's really Yingchen, wuwu, we finally found you." Ji Rushong held Ji Yingchen's hand and cried.
"Uncle Ji, how did you become like this? The last time I saw you, you were still so high-spirited and arrogant."
There was sarcasm in Ji Yingchen's eyes, but a smile on his lips.
He will never forget it in his life. Before his mother's funeral was even over, Ji Tiantian brought people to the Ji family and made a big fuss.
What did Ji Rusong say at the time? "The Ji family and the Ji family are not a good match. How can a mere merchant's son be worthy of my daughter, not to mention he's a cripple. It's better to cancel this engagement."
He did not hate the Ji family for looking down on the Ji family and him at that time. After all, the Ji family and he at that time were indeed not as good as their family.
But the look in his eyes at that time, which was like looking at trash, made Ji Yingchen take it seriously.
"It's embarrassing to say this." Ji Rushong said with a sigh.
"You must be the head of this base. They said they are your relatives and asked us to escort them all the way here. Please pay the travel expenses." One of the men in a mink coat said.
"Oh? Travel expenses, how much travel expenses do you want?" Ji Yingchen asked.
"The Ji family is rich, and we don't ask for much. Just give us supplies worth 100 million."
The other party asked for 100 million worth of supplies without any hesitation.
"This gentleman is really a joke. Look at these three people. They don't look like they are worth 100 million."
"If you think it's worth it, I'll give them to you, and you give me 100 million supplies."
Ji Yingchen's words successfully changed the expressions of the three big men opposite and the three people from the Ji family.
"Haha, just kidding."
"Uncle Ji, how can my Ji family compare with your Ji family? We were born as merchants. Even if we had some money before the end of the world, we couldn't accumulate so many supplies. Your Ji family is powerful, so you should provide these supplies yourself." After Ji Yingchen said this, he looked at Ji Rushong with an innocent face.
"Yingchen, you can't do this. My father and your grandfather were comrades-in-arms. Our two families are old friends." Ji Rushong still pulled Ji Yingchen's sleeve.
"Old friends? Why don't I seem to have seen them before?" Ji Huaiying said with his hands folded, looking puzzled.
"Second brother, it's not your fault that you haven't seen her. Since mom passed away, our two families have had no contact. You are often training outside, so it's normal that you haven't seen her." Ji Wanyi said to him.
"Oh, it's been more than ten years. How can you be considered an old friend if you haven't had any contact with me for more than ten years?" Ji Huaiying said deliberately.
"What does the affairs of our two families have to do with you, an outsider? And you, Ji Wanyi, you saw Sister Tiantian suffering in Province Y and didn't help her. You have such a cruel heart and such a selfish person." Ji Rushong's wife suddenly jumped out and pointed at Ji Wanyi and Ji Huaiying and cursed.
Ji Wanyi and Ji Huaiying looked at each other and saw the word "innocent" in each other's eyes.
The man who was timid just now suddenly became tough.
Isn't it just because you rely on being the elder?
These three people are typical bullies. They must not be allowed into the base, otherwise there will be no peace in the base.
"Madam Ji, Huaiying and Wanyi are my biological brother and sister. They are also the owners of this base. Moreover, our two families have had no relationship since ten years ago. You are not qualified to point fingers at them now."
"In the end times, one can only rely on strength. If I were more polite, I would be willing to call you two uncle and aunt. If I were more utilitarian, I could just not recognize you three. So, don't act like you're my elders."
"Also, my base is too small to accommodate three large Buddhas. Of course, for the sake of Grandpa and Grandpa Ji, I won't let you make this trip in vain."
At Ji Yingchen's signal, someone from the base carried out three boxes of instant noodles.
To be honest, three boxes of instant noodles are a lot in the end times.
If it wasn't difficult to fall out now, they wouldn't want to give even a single bag.
"Take these supplies and leave. As for the 100 million worth, a small family like our Ji family simply cannot afford it. Uncle, you are not a self-proclaimed wealthy family, but a royal family in ancient times. I think these 100 million worth of supplies should be nothing to you."
After hearing Ji Yingchen's words, the three people from the Ji family were stunned.
"Oh, I don't want to live anymore. They said they were friends from aristocratic families and our fathers were comrades-in-arms. But our family has fallen into decline and they don't even recognize us. What's the point of our family living alone in the last days without any support?" Mrs. Ji immediately lay on the ground, crying.
Soon, Ji Rushong also rolled on the ground with her.
Ji Wan sneered and silently activated his ice ability, but no ice cones appeared. The temperature in the already cold environment dropped by more than ten degrees.
Even Ji Huaiying, who was wearing warm clothes, couldn't help shivering. The three people on the ground were shaking so hard that they couldn't speak, and their snot and tears were frozen on their faces.
Looking at it this way, it is indeed pitiful, but it has nothing to do with them.
"It's getting colder, we have to go back inside to keep warm. I won't keep you here any longer. Goodbye."
"Close the door." Ji Yingchen continued.
As the gate to the Ji Family Base was about to close, the burly men exchanged glances, and the leader shouted, "What a cold-blooded Ji Family Base! We brothers cannot tolerate your behavior, and we must teach you a lesson today."
The five people burst out with their special powers and came towards Ji Huaiying and Ji Yingchen.
Ji Huaiying and Ji Yingchen both stood there without moving, and the people in the base stood in front of them.
Yan Ruo and Yi Shuo are both level three, so they can easily fight two against one.
But they did not take action. They just stood in front of the three people from the Ji family as a line of defense, and watched the other partners in the base take action.
