Grandpa Ji was originally waiting at home for Jiang Nian to get out of school so he could take her to the Si family's house.
Unexpectedly, he suddenly received a call from Jiang Nian, who said she was feeling a little unwell and asked him to take Ji Yuwei over first.
Upon hearing that his beloved granddaughter was unwell, Old Master Ji lost all interest in visiting other people's homes or admiring paintings. He immediately spoke into the phone:
"No, Niannian, where are you right now? I'll have your older brother pick you up and take you home right now. We're not going to the Si family's place, we're going to the hospital now!"
Before Jiang Nian could speak on the other end of the phone, Ji Yuwei suddenly appeared, looking surprised and worried.
"What? Grandpa, is Nian Nian not feeling well? Where is she feeling unwell?"
“I don’t know either. The child was perfectly fine when she called this morning. Why did she suddenly feel unwell? She said it was nothing and she would go to the Si family’s house by herself, and then she hung up the phone.”
Old Master Ji was extremely anxious. He immediately wanted to tell the housekeeper to call Ji Yanli.
Ji Yuwei simply couldn't believe it.
That JN is amazing!
He said Jiang Nian would react soon, and sure enough, Jiang Nian said she felt unwell. Where did she feel unwell? It must be her face!
Ji Yuwei was overjoyed, but said on the surface, "Grandpa, my eldest brother has an important meeting at the company tonight. If you call him now and ask him to come back, what will happen to the company's affairs?"
Grandpa Ji frowned deeply, ignoring everything else: "We can't just ignore Niannian! I'll call Qi Yue back."
“Grandpa,” Ji Yuwei stopped the old man Ji, speaking in a kind and understanding tone, “Grandpa, you’ve already promised to visit Grandpa Si, and the time is almost here. It wouldn’t be good for you to break your promise at the last minute. I think we should go ahead.”
"Besides, since Niannian said she's fine and will go to the Si family on her own, there must be nothing seriously wrong, so you don't need to worry here. If Niannian really isn't feeling well, we can just bring her home."
When Grandpa Ji heard this, he realized that was indeed the case.
I had no choice but to reluctantly agree.
-
The Si family.
Tonight's dinner at the Si family's residence is for people who are on good terms with Old Master Si.
Grandpa Song had also received an invitation, but after learning at the banquet that Jiang Ranran was pregnant because of Song Wenjing, and the next day a test confirmed it was true, he was forced to acknowledge Jiang Ranran as his granddaughter-in-law, and Grandpa Song was so angry that he fell ill.
So today, Song Sichen is here at the Si family in place of Old Master Song.
But Song Sichen clearly didn't like this kind of occasion.
A tailored white suit accentuated the man's tall, slender, and handsome figure. His demeanor was as humble and proper as ever, but his gaze was indifferent, clearly indicating that he wasn't particularly interested in the banquet itself.
The banquet hall of the Si family's old residence is elegantly decorated.
The entire set of furniture, crafted from rosewood, is understated yet exquisite, exuding a classic and traditional charm.
Mrs. Si wore a gorgeous purple dress tonight, with a large, round Australian white pearl necklace around her neck that was particularly eye-catching, and an emerald bracelet on her wrist that was even more striking.
Every gesture she makes exudes the elegance and sophistication of a wealthy socialite.
No sooner had they finished welcoming Song Sichen than Old Master Ji led Ji Yuwei through the door, and they immediately greeted him with great enthusiasm.
"Mr. Ji, your health has finally improved! My husband often thinks about you!"
Mrs. Si spoke in a flattering tone, trying to ingratiate herself. Her eyes darted to Ji Yuwei beside Old Master Ji, and she asked, "And this is?"
Ji Yuwei spent the entire afternoon working on her makeup and styling.
At this moment, she is wearing a carefully crafted, pure and innocent makeup look.
Wearing a strapless evening gown, the beautifully curved bodice and cinched waist accentuated her slender figure, making her appear almost too delicate to be touched. Her fair thighs were visible beneath the dress, drawing everyone's attention.
Upon hearing Madam Si ask about her, before Old Master Ji could even introduce her, she immediately took the initiative to greet her in a sweet and gentle tone.
“Mrs. Si, I am Ji Yuwei, my grandfather’s granddaughter. I was living abroad before and only recently returned, so you haven’t met me before.”
Mrs. Si looked enlightened: "So she's Old Master Ji's granddaughter. No wonder she has such an outstanding temperament."
In that instant, countless thoughts flashed through my mind.
I had long heard that Grandpa Ji didn't allow his grandchildren to proclaim that they were members of the Ji family. I never expected that Grandpa Ji would have a granddaughter who was about the same age as Bo Ye.
Previously, it was only known that Grandpa Ji had been searching for his runaway daughter, and not long ago he finally found his granddaughter after being separated for seventeen years. He even made a will, leaving his hundreds of billions of assets to this young girl after his death.
He treats his granddaughter better than his own; I don't know what the old man is thinking this time.
Unfortunately, that girl was too young and not a good match for Bo Ye. This Ji Yuwei, on the other hand, looked to be about the same age as Bo Ye.
Although she wasn't as favored as that young girl, her status as the daughter of the Ji family was still undeniable.
This is more in line with the status of the Si family and makes her a suitable fiancée for her son.
What is Jiang Nian, who comes from a humble family like the Jiang family and grew up in the countryside?
"Mr. Ji, you really know how to keep a treasure hidden! You have such a beautiful and outstanding granddaughter, and you only introduced her to us today?"
Mrs. Si became even more enthusiastic and immediately grasped Ji Yuwei's hand, saying, "Yuwei, since you are Old Master Ji's granddaughter, we are family. I will call you Yuwei."
"How old are you this year? What's your zodiac sign? Do you have a boyfriend? Have you met our Bo Ye before?"
When Si Boye was mentioned, Ji Yuwei blushed and said in a sweet voice, "Mrs. Si, I am twenty-three years old this year. I don't have a boyfriend and I have never met President Bo."
