In fact, the old man seldom comes to the company, and has never come to Ji Qi's residence.
After all, the children are older, so they can't interfere too much.
It was just a spur of the moment today, I happened to be out so I thought of going to the company to take a look.
But Ji Qi was not in the company, and Assistant Wang was also hesitant.
The old man thought something had happened and came here again.
Ji Qi quickly covered Xu Lingyi with a blanket and put on his clothes quietly.
"Don't be afraid..." Ji Qi raised his index finger and said softly.
He saw that Xu Lingyi was nervous, so he didn't intend to let the old man know what happened yesterday and cause trouble for Xu Lingyi.
"I know you're in there. Your shoes are at the door... If you don't come out, Grandpa will have to find the key to get in..."
The old man tried to speak to the inside, but there was still no response. "Could something have happened to this brat?"
The old man was talking to himself outside, and his heart was in his throat.
Xu Lingyi tried to reach her hands out from under the quilt. She wanted to sit up and put on her clothes, but her whole body was sore and she couldn't do it at all.
"Don't be afraid, I won't call grandpa in, and I won't let him see you. Just lie down and rest, it's okay." Ji Qi comforted her.
But his attempts to comfort her seemed to be of no avail.
For a moment, Ji Qi was a little flustered. He handed clothes to Xu Lingyi while putting on his own clothes.
"Grandpa, I just woke up...why are you here?"
When Ji Qi heard the sound of keys turning outside the door, he immediately went to block the door.
Seeing that the old man wanted to go in, Ji Qi immediately turned over and went outside the door, then quickly closed it.
"What do you have hidden in your house?"
The old man obviously noticed something was wrong. "Ji Qi, I raised you. Even if you fart, I know what you're thinking. You're not acting right today. What's so shameful in there that you don't want me to come in?"
Ji Qi held his temples, took a deep breath, and prepared to convince him with reason: "Grandpa, even if you raised me, it doesn't mean you can invade my private space at will. I have been an adult for a long time."
Ji Qi reminded the old man, "Let's go, I'll take you down, I'll go to the company now."
The old man brushed his hand away, but a terrible thought popped up in his mind, "Ji Qi, is there a man hiding in your room?"
After the old man finished speaking, his face changed when he thought of this possibility, and his hands were shaking slightly.
The old man hit Ji Qi with his cane: "You evil creature, no wonder you didn't let me into your room. Go away, don't try to get rid of me. After I retired, your grandfather had the most time. I won't leave until I find this man today."
Ji Qi held his forehead with his hand. The elderly were more like old children and were particularly stubborn.
Because he doesn't like women, his family never thought that he would take the initiative to approach women. The old man and others had previously guessed that he might like men.
Ji Qi denied it, but they didn't believe him, and then he was too lazy to explain further.
"Grandpa, I don't like men. I told you before. I remember I also told you that I have a woman I like."
"So there's a woman in the room?"
The old man also thought of what Ji Qi said to him last time, but he still had doubts in his heart.
He had never seen a woman close to Ji Qi in all these years.
"Grandpa, there's nothing in the room."
Ji Qi knew that Xu Lingyi was not prepared to meet his family at all, and their relationship last night was more of an accident.
If grandpa saw her, it would only cause her trouble.
Ji Qi didn't want this to happen. He only wanted to arrange a meeting between them once she was willing to accept him and meet his family.
He didn't want to scare her.
"No way, if not, you wouldn't stop me from going in."
The old man spoke with conviction.
Ji Qi frowned and didn't speak for a long time. Finally, he spoke to the old man seriously.
"Grandpa, your behavior today has crossed the line and caused me trouble. I know what you are worried about. I can assure you that it is not what you think. I don't like men either."
His tone was so serious that even the old man was a little stunned.
"Words are not enough, and the way you are trying to hide it now, there is no way I can trust you, old man. Ji Qi, you should also understand the feelings of us old guys. If you don't ask me to go in and take a look today, I won't be able to let go."
The more Ji Qi tried to stop him, the more the old man felt that there was a man inside.
Ji Qi took a deep breath and picked up the old man by the waist. "Grandpa, I'll take you back."
Ji Qi gave up on making excuses and just wanted to get the old man away now.
"Ji... Ji Qi." The old man covered his chest with his hands, looking painful.
"grandfather?"
"medicine……"
The old man did have heart problems, and Ji Qi had a deep relationship with the old man and his family.
Although Ji Qi was suspicious, he didn't dare to take risks with the old man's health. He quickly put the old man down and asked, "Grandpa, where is your medicine?"
The old man's face turned pale and he clutched his chest, pointing to the bag a few steps away.
The moment Ji Qi turned around, the old man stood up quickly and rushed into Ji Qi's room in high spirits.
He always suspected that there was a man hiding in Ji Qi's room. If he didn't go and check it out today, he wouldn't be able to sleep well at night.
The old man pushed open the door, and Ji Qi noticed it immediately. He hurried over, but he was still a step too late.
The old man had already stepped into the room.
"Hey, why is there no one here?"
The old man was stunned, and Ji Qi quickly shook the old man's hand, "Grandpa, I said there is no one here, please go back to the old house."
The old man stood at the door without moving. Just when Ji Qi thought he was going to use some tricks, the old man took the initiative to say, "Send me back."
Ji Qi breathed a sigh of relief. Before sending the old man to the car, the old man shook his hand and said, "Ji Qi, you should seize the opportunity."
There seemed to be no one in Ji Qi's room, but the old man saw high heels and a woman's dress under the bed.
Although he was old, his eyes were not so far away from presbyopia and his vision was extremely sharp. He also found that even though the sheets and quilt covers had been tidied, they still looked very messy.
The people hiding inside must have been hastily sorted out.
After noticing this, the old man began to look for more details, such as the red scratches on Ji Qi's neck when he bent down to send him off.
And Ji Qi's hair was a little messy, which was inconsistent with his usual elite image.
Thinking of what Ji Qi had said before, that he fell in love with a married man, the old man connected everything.
"Last time you told me you had someone you liked, but I didn't see you bring that person back, so I didn't take it seriously at the time. I thought it was just another lie you made up. Only today did I find out it was true."
"You've come this far. Bring her back in a couple of days. Grandpa doesn't mind if she's divorced. As long as you like her, it doesn't matter what her status or family background is."
The old man thought he was reasonable enough. He thought that after saying this, Ji Qi would promise to bring people back.
