The driver got out of the car and opened the door, but only Ji Lun got out.
Xu Sen's face immediately fell.
Liang Wanrou's face turned even uglier. She whispered in Xu Sen's ear, "Ji Huai didn't come again, which means we can't set a wedding date for Jiajia and Ji Lun today?! The Ji family really doesn't take us seriously!"
What Liang Wanrou was worried about was that things might change if Ji Huai suddenly remembered that Xu Qingyun was the one who was engaged to the Ji family.
"Alright, he is, after all, the eldest young master of the Ji family. No matter how unhappy you are, you have to bear it."
Xu Sen took a deep breath and quickly put on a smile, "Young Master Ji, please come in, please come in."
Ji Lun stood with his hands in his pockets, his expression indifferent, seemingly reluctant to come over.
Xu Sen was seething with anger, but he still had to put on a smiling face. "Will the old man arrive a little later?"
Ji Lun replied casually, "My grandfather wasn't feeling well with his heart when he was leaving, so he's not coming."
Actually, it was because my mother came back when I went out.
My mother isn't gentle; she always argues with my grandfather whenever they meet. He definitely won't be coming over tonight.
Ji Lun stepped inside, and when he saw the two people by the window, his pupils shrank instantly, and his face darkened.
Xu Sen's eyes lit up. It seemed that Ninth Master Ji really liked Xiao Yun. That was wonderful.
If Xiaoyun can really control Ji Hanchen, that would be perfect; the Xu family would be truly prosperous.
Like her mother, Xiaoyun was his lucky star. It was because of Ye Jianjia that he was able to establish Hengli Group and become the entrepreneur he is today.
If he had Xiaoyun, he would use the Ji family's wealth and influence to rise to a higher level.
Liang Wanrou also witnessed this scene and was immediately enraged.
That damned little slut! Back then, Ye Jianjia blocked her path, and now that bitch's daughter is blocking hers again. She's asking for death!
She has to find a way to get rid of Xu Qingyun, this scourge!
Ji Hanchen was facing the floor-to-ceiling window, so he naturally saw Ji Lun.
He instinctively kissed her more intensely, but Xu Qingyun pushed him away, quickly entered the bathroom, and stood in front of the mirror.
Xu Qingyun's pink lips became luscious and tempting from being repeatedly sucked and bitten.
She couldn't help but gently touch it with her fingertips; the tingling, itchy sensation was still faintly there.
She must be crazy. She actually let Ji Hanchen kiss her just now?
**
The Ji family ancestral home.
As soon as Yao Xueying entered the room, she sat down on the sofa with dissatisfaction and began to complain, "Dad, what's going on with Ji Lun's girlfriend? He's your eldest grandson, how could you just casually get him engaged to some shady girl?"
"Yes, I was a bit too eager before, and kept urging Ji Lun to meet those rich young ladies, but as his mother, I'm not so desperate as to let him marry just anyone."
"In the end, it's because you're biased. If it were the Ninth Prince, would you have let him marry someone from a different social class?!"
Yao Xueying is Ji Huai's eldest daughter-in-law, and she has a strong prejudice against her father-in-law because of the issue of succession.
She was furious when she heard that her son suddenly had a fiancée, who was the daughter of a nouveau riche.
Ji Huai glared angrily, "You come back and start picking fights? Wasn't it you who arranged Xu Jia's marriage?"
"Me? When did I make this decision?" Yao Xueying raised her voice.
Ji Huai snorted, "Go ask Ji Lun yourself. That brat said you found him."
**
The Xu family.
Xu Jia was the last to return. She had gone for a beauty treatment because they were going to discuss their engagement that evening.
"Brother Ji Lun, do I look good today?" Xu Jia hugged Ji Lun's arm.
Ji Lun smiled and said, "Beautiful."
But his words seemed to be directed at Xu Qingyun, his peach blossom eyes fixed on her, his gaze filled with affection.
Xu Jia's expression changed, "You slut..."
Liang Wanrou secretly pinched her daughter's waist, and Xu Jia finally shut up.
But she couldn't contain her anger, and Xu Jia glared fiercely at Xu Qingyun.
Whenever Xu Qingyun is around, Xu Jia loses control of herself; jealousy is like a raging flood, driving her crazy.
Xu Sen frowned, feeling more and more that his own daughter was not as good as Xiao Yun.
"Ninth Master, Young Master Ji, let's start eating," Xu Sen said.
Xu Sen is hosting Ji Huai today, and he has specially prepared twenty-eight dishes, filling the entire table.
Xu Qingyun prefers light flavors, but what's in front of her are dishes like braised pork ribs and braised pork bones, which are quite strong in flavor.
Ji Hanchen noticed that she picked up a piece of sweet and sour pork, took a small bite, and a hint of pleasure could be seen in her eyes, as if she had tasted something delicious.
Ji Hanchen smiled and picked up two more pieces of sweet and sour pork for her, then leaned close to her ear and whispered, "Yunyun really likes sweet and sour pork?"
Xu Qingyun composed herself and softly hummed in agreement.
Ji Hanchen silently took out his phone and opened the notes app.
—Yunyun likes sweet and sour pork.
Ji Lun scoffed, "Doesn't your uncle know Xiao Yun's tastes?"
"She likes to eat sweet and sour pork, egg-wrapped tofu, candied sweet potato, chrysanthemum fish, salt-baked shrimp, and baby bok choy in broth."
As Ji Lun spoke, he pushed all the dishes in front of Xu Qingyun.
A cold glint flashed in Ji Hanchen's eyes as he swept his gaze directly at Ji Lun.
He knew that Jilun was provoking him.
However, Yunyun looked up in surprise just now, seemingly quite surprised that Ji Lun still remembered all of this, so it could be considered as helping him.
"Uncle should thank you, otherwise he wouldn't know what kind of dishes your aunt likes to eat."
Ji Hanchen retorted lightly, then looked down at Xu Qingyun and said, "I'll learn how to cook these dishes and make them for you in the future."
Xu Qingyun didn't respond, unsure whether Ji Hanchen was arguing with Ji Lun or trying to appease her.
Ji Lun sneered, "Uncle, don't be so polite. Xiao Yun is my girlfriend after all. We've been together for two years, so of course I know her preferences. Unlike you, Uncle, who just met Xiao Yun and doesn't know any better."
