Chapter 52 A Man’s Dowry (End of Text)
◎Her parents had already agreed to my marriage.◎
When I rushed back home, the heavy rain began to fall again, banging on the car windows.
Perhaps out of guilt, the driver gave the spare umbrella in the car to Ji Nan.
Ji Nan didn't refuse, but just transferred fifty more yuan.
"It's easier for us ghosts to make money anyway. After all, we can burn hundreds of millions at a time."
Driver: "Why don't you just reincarnate as soon as possible?"
After saying that, he drove away without looking back. He really couldn't stay in this place anymore.
Ji Nan vaguely heard the word "lunatic" coming from the wind. He found it funny himself. He stood on the side of the road with an umbrella and laughed for a long time before walking back.
Heavy rain is often accompanied by thunder. There is always a loud rumbling sound coming from the sky, as if the sky is about to break at any time, which sounds a bit scary.
Although the windows at home have good sound insulation, they cannot completely block out the thunder and lightning that shakes the earth and sky.
The dogs were fast asleep, snoring softly in their little dens.
But the kitten who likes to stay up late and sleep lightly is not so lucky. He curls up beside his dog and shivers, completely lacking his usual pride.
Seeing Ji Nan coming back, Dongdong immediately ran over and jumped high to bump into his chest.
Ji Nan felt a pang of distress when he saw this, so he immediately reached out and scooped the cat into his arms. He gently stroked the kitten's fur and soothed it softly, "Are you scared? Then Dongdong, sleep with Daddy tonight, okay?"
Dongdong rubbed his chest and meowed in a baby voice, as if in response.
After going back to change into pajamas, Ji Nan lay on the bed, smelling the lingering scent of love in the room, and suddenly had a different idea.
He turned over and sat up, pulled the kitten from the bed, stared at its big, round, green eyes and said, "I suddenly realized that Daddy is a little scared too. Why don't we sleep with Mommy?"
Without waiting for a response, he put on his slippers and walked out.
Zhong Jiajing never likes to lock the door when she goes to sleep, so Ji Nan held Dongdong's paw and pressed it down to easily open the door.
The guest room had a 1.5-meter-long bed, which was not very big. Zhong Jiajing curled up and slept in the middle of it.
Ji Nan found a slightly more spacious spot for Dongdong to sleep at the end of the bed, while he himself curled up and lay down along the remaining corner of the bed.
Having just been awakened by the sudden thunder, Zhong Jiajing was still in a daze, half asleep and half awake.
The whole person was completely surrounded from the back, with a familiar light and fresh fragrance lingering around, and a warm temperature coming from his body. His frightened heart slowly calmed down after feeling familiar.
She turned to face Ji Nan, half-opened her eyes and blamed him confusedly, "You climbed into my bed in the middle of the night!"
"Yeah." Ji Nan mumbled in response, but did not let go, just hugged the person tighter.
Suddenly, a loud thunder sounded from the sky, and the curtains, which were not completely black, failed to block the light, and the room suddenly became bright for a moment.
Zhong Jiajing was startled by the sudden explosion and suddenly threw herself into Ji Nan's arms like a pitiful kitten.
Dongdong at the end of the bed was also frightened and slipped into the quilt of the two people.
Ji Nan patted the person and the cat. He rested his chin on the soft top of Zhong Jiajing's head and whispered, "I'm afraid of thunder, too, so don't chase me away."
"Then you can't do anything stupid." Zhong Jiajing snuggled in his arms and sulked.
Ji Nan responded calmly, "Yeah."
He lowered his head and kissed the top of her head, murmuring, "I love you."
Zhong Jiajing hadn't fallen asleep yet. She gently kissed the nearest chest and replied to him in a daze, "I love you too."
In satisfaction, the two fell asleep in each other's arms.
The next day I was woken up by Ji Nan's phone ringing.
"My dear, you are not at home? No one answered my knock on the door."
"The password has also been changed. Tell us how much it is. Your father and I are freezing to death outside the door."
It was his mother's voice on the other end of the phone, and Ji Nan's drowsy mind instantly became clear.
It was just after seven o'clock, and because of the rain in the evening, the sky was still very dark. The dogs had no basis for judgment and did not disturb people's sleep.
Ever since Ye Tan interrupted their intimate moment last time, Ji Nan changed his password overnight. It worked in blocking people today, but his original intention was not realized.
Zhong Jiajing was frightened again and hid in the quilt like a corpse.
Ji Nan sighed, "Mom, I'm home, I'll be right over to open the door."
After hanging up the phone, he carried Zhong Jiajing, who had recovered from her stomach, out and comforted her for a while, "It's okay, they're easy to talk to."
"You go clean up the bathroom in my room while I tell them to go walk the dog."
Zhong Jiajing blinked pitifully, "The main thing is, how can I face people like this?"
Ji Nan held her face and looked at her from left to right, then said seriously, "You'll be a fairy after washing your face."
He half coaxed and half tricked her into the master bedroom, then turned around and opened the door.
Father Ji got angry when he saw his lazy look. "Why are you dawdling? If I had your time, I would have flown back."
Ji Nan shrugged, "Just stay in bed. It's normal for you to not have such worries when you're old."
He stared at his mother, who hadn't even had time to put on makeup, and asked, "Mom, why did you come here so early in the morning? You didn't even tell me in advance."
Mother Ji took a sip of the hot water from her son and said with a smile, "I wanted to fly here overnight, but the rain delayed me."
"I heard your dad say yesterday that you are in love? Is that true?" she asked mischievously.
Ji Nan put leashes on the dogs and handed one to each of his parents. "Why would I lie to you? I got up late and haven't had time to clean up yet. Could you please take some time off to walk the dogs for me?"
Father Ji was diverted from the topic. He stared at the black pastoral dog in his hand and asked suspiciously, "Why haven't I seen this child before?"
Ji Nan said, "This is like a reconstituted family. My girlfriend brought this here."
Ji's mother was suspicious, "Since the dog is here with you, why haven't you seen the man?"
"Don't ask. If you do, we'll talk about it tonight." Ji Nan didn't want to explain, but just pushed his parents out.
The rain stopped in the middle of the night. Actually, the ground was still a little wet, but I happened to be taking my furry kids to take a bath today, so I wasn't afraid of getting them dirty.
After everyone had left, Zhong Jiajing began to calm down and wash up slowly.
"Will they dislike me?" Zhong Jiajing said worriedly while brushing her teeth.
Ji Nan hugged her from behind and said, "Don't worry at all. They will just think you are a blind savior."
As for why they said that, the answer became clear when the four of them collided at the door of the mini zoo.
Father Ji and Mother Ji: "We just stopped by to take a look at the store."
Zhong Jiajing: "I'm just here to work."
Ji Nan: "I just came to send my wife to work."
Duoduo & Black Duck: "Woof woof woof?"
Only Xiaobai was cheerful, "Hehehehe, it just so happens that I didn't have breakfast."
Although Ji Nan told her that she didn't have to come to work, she would still come when she was free. Was it a way of repaying his kindness?
Those who are grateful will be rewarded. For example, she happened to catch a big show today, which made her even more excited than going to Wei Ge's concert.
She served each of the four people a cup of steaming hot coffee, and then quietly hid aside to watch the show.
Ji's mother smiled gently, "Ji Nan just has an unpleasant mouth. Did Jia Jing get angry when she was with him?"
Zhong Jiajing shook her head. "No, he's very considerate."
Father Ji sneered, "Hmph, you don't have to say anything good for him. If you ask me, he's never been beaten in vain. If he makes you unhappy, just hit him directly. At worst, call uncle and wait for me to fly over to deal with him."
After all, it was in front of her future parents-in-law, so Zhong Jiajing thought about it and decided to say a few nice words.
"Uncle and aunt, Ji Nan is a very nice person, and he usually speaks very well..."
She hesitated for a while before thinking of a suitable word, "It's quite personal..."
Xiaobai accidentally laughed out loud, and when Ji Nandao Ren's gaze shot over, she immediately covered her mouth and kept silent.
Father Ji shook his head when he saw this and said, "Xiao Zhong, you've suffered so much."
"As his biological father, I can't stand him sometimes. Thinking that you'll have to live with him for the next 70 or 80 years, I just can't bear it."
"By accepting this monster, you have done a great deed. Our Ji family's eight generations of ancestors must thank you."
Then Ji's father and mother started stuffing a lot of red envelopes, bank cards, bracelets and other things into her hands.
Ji's mother took Zhong Jiajing's hand and said earnestly, "I just don't know if your parents like him?"
Ji Nan groaned, "You're just worrying about nothing. Her parents have already agreed to my marriage."
His simple words confused the four people and two dogs present.
Xiaobai asked silently: "Are we also your dowry?"
Ji Nan glanced at her and said, "You don't need a maid as a dowry. Just remember to hand over your first year's salary when you get ashore."
Xiaobai: Haha, I shouldn’t have asked.
Father Ji finally smiled. He patted his son's shoulder with satisfaction and said, "You can do it! You are worthy of being my son, Ji Yongtian!"
Why is there something wrong with this painting? Zhong Jiajing sat at the side, looking a little disheveled.
The parents who loved the baby boy did not show up, and the scene that she had imagined before, "one million and leaving my son", did not happen either. She even imagined using the money to buy a house as a down payment, but in the end it was nothing.
Ji's mother was born with elegance and dignity, and even in her fifties she was still beautiful. Ji Nan was a mirror image of her, but his personality was more like his father's, with an inexplicable sense of serious humor.
The atmosphere was quite pleasant. Zhong Jiajing put aside her awkwardness and became more cheerful, chatting with the two elders.
In the end, it was Ji Nan who stopped it.
"Okay, let's talk tonight. Zhong Jiajing has to go to work."
Father Ji frowned, "What kind of rubbish company has to work on weekends?"
This sound really went deep into Zhong Jiajing's heart. She pointed at the tall building opposite and cried, "That crappy company!"
Father Ji looked at his son and said, "How dare you enjoy yourself on this weekend? Your girlfriend is working hard to make money, and you're still enjoying a wonderful weekend. Can you be conscientious?"
Ji Nan stuffed a strand of Zhong Jiajing's hair into his hairband and said casually, "Isn't this just waiting for you to make more money? Once you buy this crappy company, we'll both be free."
He has a way of looking forward to his father becoming a dragon...
After Zhong Jiajing left, Ji's mother came close to Ji Nan and sniffed him, then said with certainty, "You smell like Jiajing."
Ji Nan's expression remained unchanged. "Mom, what are you talking about? Can you still smell like hot pot after eating hot pot? Is it true that love has no smell? Am I just online dating?"
Mother Ji shook her head, her eyes gleaming. "I mean, are you living with her? Do her parents agree?"
Ji Nan was stunned for a moment, then said silently, "We are not living together, and her parents probably wouldn't agree."
"Then why did I see her clothes today on the sofa in the living room?" asked Ji's mother.
Well, he was certainly suspected of that.
"......" Ji Nan closed his eyes, "Take me to surrender."
