Chapter 154: Two-timing
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, I didn't follow Mrs. Chen and make trouble, otherwise I would be in trouble.
Everyone exchanged a few words and then dispersed.
Mother Zhong took Ye Jinmo's hand, with a complicated expression and apologetic eyes: "Jinmo, I'm sorry. I am also responsible for Shanshan's transformation..."
Ye Jinmo shook her head gently: "Let's draw a clear line between ourselves and the Meng family from now on."
"Jinmo is right," Zhong Shaoqing came over, "Shanshan has left the Zhong family, and my aunt has passed away for many years. We really have no reason to help the Meng family anymore."
A word can wake a dreamer up.
Mother Zhong nodded carefully: "Before, it was because of Shanshan that I wanted to help the Meng family, but now it is not necessary."
Ye Chong snorted coldly: "I'm much more sober now!"
The atmosphere was a bit awkward.
Chu Hong spoke at the right time: "People always have to experience something to understand life. Okay, the birthday party will start soon!"
Several people dispersed.
Niu Niu and Chu Hong stepped forward, set the time, and announced the start of the birthday party.
Many people sent their blessings and gifts.
When everyone saw Niu Niu wearing the bracelet on her wrist, they couldn't help but feel a little worried, but because of what had just happened, no one dared to say anything.
Ye Jinmo looked towards the door from time to time, thinking about someone in her heart.
Tan Qinghuan came over and handed her a glass of juice: "Is Ji Sichen not here yet?"
The girl shook her head.
"Maybe something delayed him. By the way, Jinmo, I found some information about the Jiang family."
She heard some of it that day in the teahouse.
She took out her cell phone and searched for the information she had found.
"The Jiang family is just an ordinary wealthy family, not even half as good as the Zhong family. The most famous person is Jiang Xiwen, the eldest daughter of the Jiang family. She has been very outstanding since she was a child. She knows almost everything, especially medicine. I heard that she is already a famous doctor in the circle."
"Jiang Xiwen?" Ye Jinmo was surprised.
"Do you know him?"
"I met her when I went to Country D with my senior brother and master to give an academic report two years ago. I don't remember what she looked like, but she proposed a very new concept at the time, which left a deep impression on me."
Tan Qinghuan frowned: "Even if this person is amazing, it's not a reason for her to be Ji Sichen's engagement partner. If the Ji family wants a genius young mistress, they can find one anywhere. Why must it be her?"
Ye Jinmo couldn't figure it out either.
At this moment, there was a commotion at the door.
"Boss Ji is here!"
Everyone looked towards the door.
A man and two women appeared at the door.
Ji Sichen, Old Madam Ji and the second young lady of the Ji family, who is also Ji Sichen's aunt, Ji Minghua.
After giving the gift to Niu Niu, Old Mrs. Ji went straight to Ye Jinmo.
"Jinmo, grandma feels like I haven't seen you for a long time, and you don't even come to see grandma!"
Ye Jinmo laughed: "How is grandma's health lately?"
"It's not very good. I have consulted many doctors but to no avail. I have to ask Jin Mo to help me with the treatment!"
His childish look made people around him laugh.
Ye Jinmo helped Old Madam Ji in, her eyes met Ji Sichen's and she quickly looked away.
Ji Minghua looked puzzled: "Is this the girl you like?"
Ji Sichen agreed.
"I think Xiwen is better. I will go and persuade the old lady. You just need to prepare for the engagement."
Ji Sichen felt his temples throbbing: "I don't want to quarrel today."
After saying that, he walked inside.
Seeing her grandson coming, Mrs. Ji hurriedly left, leaving the two space to get along.
The two looked at each other in silence.
After a long silence, Ji Sichen pulled her to the backyard corridor.
There's no one here.
Without waiting for her to speak, the man pulled her into his arms, buried his head in her neck, and greedily inhaled her scent.
Seeing the person in front of her at this moment, she felt somewhat aggrieved.
We haven't contacted each other for so many days, but you hug her as soon as you meet. What do you think of her?
She broke free, her little face pretty, and took a step back, putting some distance between herself and him, with a hint of bitterness in her almond-shaped eyes.
My heart swelled and I was inexplicably angry, so I turned around and was about to leave.
"Jinmo!"
Ji Sichen had no choice but to hold her in his arms.
"Why don't you talk to me?"
"If you don't talk to me, I won't talk to you either."
The girl's arrogance and awkwardness were clearly visible on her face.
He raised his hands to pinch her face and lowered his head to kiss her lips.
She turned her head away.
The next second, the man smiled, his chest heaving.
Her face suddenly turned red and she felt a little embarrassed.
A little girl in love has a lot on her mind.
Ji Sichen held her face and wiped the moisture from the corners of her eyes.
"I'm sorry I haven't contacted you these days. It wasn't my intention. I went to the Jiang family and explained the situation clearly before I dared to come to see you."
"Is it resolved?"
Ji Sichen pursed his lips, not knowing how to answer for a moment.
"Go ahead, I want to know."
"Half of the problem has been solved. The Jiang family understands, but Jiang Xiwen... may be a little difficult..."
Hearing this, Ye Jinmo's originally twisted heart relaxed a little.
"Brother Chen, there are actually girls chasing after you and wanting to marry you! You are so charming!"
The worry in his eyes disappeared instantly when he met the girl's cute and playful eyes.
"Okay, you're making fun of me!" He reached out and grabbed her waist.
An itchy feeling spread throughout her body and she backed away.
But the man would not let her hide. He pushed her into the corner and bent down to kiss her lips.
Only after she could no longer breathe did he reluctantly let her go.
She punched him on the chest and pulled out a small mirror from her bag.
"My lipstick!"
She glared at him coquettishly and turned back to put on her lipstick.
The man stared at her without blinking, warmly and sincerely.
Seeing that he still wanted to kiss her, she quickly covered her mouth and got out of his arms.
"I want to know about you and the Jiang family."
The smile on Ji Sichen's lips froze, and he took her hand and sat down under the pavilion.
"The old man of the Jiang family was kind to the Ji family. It was a matter of the previous generation. Before he passed away, Mr. Jiang entrusted my parents to take care of his granddaughter. My parents valued their promises, so they kept this in mind."
Ye Jinmo frowned: "There are many kinds of care. I don't have to marry you, right?"
"You're right. My grandmother and I planned to give the Jiang family material compensation, but my aunt has always been in close contact with the Jiang family. When I participated in the fight for the inheritance of the Ji family, my aunt almost gave up everything..."
Having said that, Ye Jinmo understood.
The key to this matter is Aunt Ji.
"Jinmo, I will definitely resolve this matter. I won't let you down..."
Before he could finish his words, a figure walked over quickly and grabbed his collar.
"Ji Sichen, you scumbag!"
Zhong Beichi punched him in the face.
Ye Jinmo hurriedly grabbed him and said, "Second brother, stop it!"
"Jinmo, he is involved with another woman, and he dares to provoke you. What do you think my Zhong family is?" Zhong Beichi refused to let go. "I tell you, my daughter is very delicate. She is not a spare tire for your Ji family. Stay away from Jinmo!"
