Chapter 20 Life Swap 20
“How can we be strangers? I took care of you for a whole night when your mother had a difficult childbirth, and you drank my milk.” Feng Li tried to get closer, but Ji Huaizhi dodged again.
Ji Gangqiang was also a little embarrassed: "He's so tall now. Thank you for taking care of Yaoguang all these years. I've heard that you tutored him and helped him with his business."
"Um... how's your dad doing? Ask him to come home for dinner sometime. My brother and I haven't had a drink in ages."
Ji Gangqiang tried his best to appear kind and friendly.
Ji Yaoguang frowned slightly. Why did they seem so strange?
Ji Xiong interrupted them, saying, "It's so hot, let's go inside and talk." Then he looked at Yao Guang and said, "Go get the electric fan and let us cool off. There's frozen watermelon in the fridge."
Ji Yaoguang nodded and left.
Ji Xiong was also afraid that his grandson would be saddened by seeing these two unreliable things.
There is no doubt that Ji Huaizhi's grandson is outstanding, but Ji Xiong's most prized possession is Yaoguang.
“Huaizhi, why are you selling this farm? Wasn’t it supposed to be making money? What a waste!” This was Feng Li’s biggest concern.
She had just made a plan, but unexpectedly it turned into someone else's, and she was heartbroken.
"Yaoguang and I are about to take the college entrance exam. Let's put everything else aside for now on such an important day." Ji Huaizhi accepted the iced cola that Yaoguang handed him: "Thanks."
Ji Xiong picked up a slice of watermelon, took a bite, and sighed, "That feels good."
“Your uncle and I just got back and have nothing to do, so we can help you look after them. Both of you are practically my sons…” Feng Li chuckled.
"I can still look after these rabbits for you."
Ji Gangqiang nodded: "Yes, your dad agreed? Selling it like this is too hasty."
Ji Yaoguang rolled his eyes: "You two are really... We'll be even busier after we go to university, so we might as well get rid of them sooner rather than later."
Ji Gangqiang hesitated and said, "Actually, studying isn't very useful. If raising rabbits is enough, there's no need to go to university."
No sooner had he finished speaking than Ji Gangqiang was hit on the head with a watermelon rind.
Ji Xiong smashed it: "I think you've lost your mind. It's not easy for our family to have another college student, and you won't let my grandson go to school. Get out of here!"
Ji Yaoguang chuckled and glanced at Ji Huaizhi: "Ignore them. I thought it through a couple of days ago. It's better to sell it."
Ji Huaizhi didn't say anything. The reason he sold it was because the two of them came back.
Ji Huaizhi didn't want the couple to gain any advantage whatsoever.
"Dad! What are you doing?" Ji Gangqiang felt embarrassed: "You're getting senile!"
“So what if my grandpa hits you? Even if you’re old, my grandpa can still hit you,” Ji Yaoguang said, raising an eyebrow.
Ji Gangqiang felt that these words sounded somewhat familiar.
“So what if it’s sold?” Ji Xiong didn’t care. He still wanted Ji Yaoguang to go to university: “He told me before that he would use the money from selling the rabbit farm to build a house.”
The couple blinked: "He'll pay?"
“That’s out of filial piety. You can pay the rest. This house still needs to be repaired.” Ji Xiong had seen through it all over the years.
It's hard to rely on that couple.
Although Ji Gangzheng resented himself, he wouldn't abandon him. Yaoguang was also a filial son, and although his later years weren't as good as Tang Guixiang's, they weren't bad either.
Ji Gangqiang pursed his lips, a sense of helplessness rising in his heart: "Then we'll have to pay for repairing the old house anyway."
Ji Huaizhi laughed: "Uncle, isn't this house yours? Why should my dad pay for your house?"
Ji Yaoguang also felt ashamed and said to Ji Gangqiang, "What are you talking about?"
Ji Gangqiang was also stunned, not expecting to say what was on his mind: "This... Dad is also with us, Dad also wants to live in this house, so..."
Ji Xiong felt ashamed: "What? I raised your children, and now that I'm old, you think I'm useless and want to kick me out?"
“Dad! Gangqiang didn’t mean that,” Feng Li quickly explained.
"Yes, I just saw how successful Gangzheng is now, and I thought he could help me out." Ji Gangqiang felt uneasy.
Now Dad doesn't protect me like he used to.
Ji Yaoguang: "That's not how you help, Dad. Actually, sometimes I don't quite understand your thought process. You've been outside for so many years, wearing leather shoes and getting your hair permed, complaining about being poor, but you and Mom don't care about anything at home. Uncle and the others have already helped us enough."
"I've caused them so much trouble just with my studies..."
Ji Gangqiang interrupted, "It's not your place to lecture me!"
"And what about me? Can I teach him a lesson?" Ji Xiong's voice was deep and resonant: "You're such a grown man and you haven't improved at all."
“You two shouldn’t go out to work anymore. Once the house is repaired, find something to do at home.” Ji Xiong felt that the two of them really needed someone to look after them.
“We’ve got an idea for what to do. Didn’t Yaoguang and Huaizhi sell it?” Feng Li thought, “But they haven’t sold it yet.”
We still have to intercept it.
"Hmph." Ji Xiong glanced at her sideways: "You guys are pretty shameless."
Ji Huaizhi smiled and said, "So, do you want to buy them? I'll give you a fixed price for these rabbits, their enclosures, and the buyer."
“I’m so close to your dad, I’ll talk to him about the money,” Ji Gangqiang said.
“Then there’s nothing to discuss.” Ji Huaizhi shrugged.
"Grandpa, I'm leaving now. I'll come back tomorrow." Ji Huaizhi stood up: "Don't let Yaoguang get bullied."
Ji Xiong snorted coldly: "Who dares to bully him?"
Ji Yaoguang saw Ji Huaizhi out, his tone somewhat apologetic: "Ji Huaizhi, I'm so sorry, I knew my parents were unreasonable, but I never expected..."
"Why are you apologizing? It has nothing to do with you."
Ji Yaoguang said helplessly, "But those are my parents."
Ji Huaizhi looked at him and said, "You don't care about my attitude towards your parents. After all, we grew up together and I wanted to help you get revenge, but I didn't expect them to not care."
Ji Yaoguang shrugged: "I'm used to it. They don't really care about any of them. Only my dad cares about my grandpa."
"Go back now, see you tomorrow. You need to study more from now on, aren't we going to take the entrance exam for the same university together?"
Ji Yaoguang and Ji Huaizhi raised their hands to say goodbye, and when they returned to the house, they bumped into Feng Li rushing out.
"Why are you going so fast?" Ji Yaoguang asked, puzzled, seeing that she was about to bump into him.
"You got diarrhea after eating watermelon, so your grandpa told you to clean up the watermelon rinds."
Feng Li rushed out to chase after Ji Huaizhi, and seeing him about to ride away on his electric scooter, she quickly called out to him, "Huaizhi! Huaizhi, wait a minute."
Ji Huaizhi looked at her: "Is something the matter?"
"I want to ask you, are your family members good to you?" Feng Li asked hesitantly.
She wanted to tell him that she was his biological mother, but to her surprise, he didn't give her a chance to speak at all. He gave her a strange look, then got on his electric scooter, twisted the throttle, and drove off.
"Hey! Hey! Why did you leave?" Feng Li was stunned: "I hadn't even finished speaking, and you just left?"
