Chapter 76 The weather is cold, the Xu family is going bankrupt
Ji Jinhe walked out of the elevator and was not surprised to see them. She walked over to Qi Xiuxu and sat down as if she didn't see them.
When the Xu family members saw Ji Jinhe, they were all surprised. Ying Wanshu screamed and wanted to say something but was grabbed by Xu Zhenqu.
She seemed to finally realize that this was the Qi family, not any other place outside where one could talk freely. Her face turned pale and she shut her mouth.
Xu Zhenqu turned his head and glanced at Qi Xiuxu's frown. In his heart, he cursed Ying Wanshu for her rudeness, but he put on a flattering smile again: "Mr. Qi, my wife saw..."
He looked at Ji Jinhe and hesitated to speak, "I was so surprised to see my daughter that I was impolite."
He is a smart man. Ji Jinhe walked out of the elevator leisurely, and it was obvious that he had a close relationship with Qi Xiuxu.
Ji Jinhe paused holding the water cup and looked at Xu Zhenqu, "Who is your daughter?"
"I remember that I have nothing to do with you." She narrowed her eyes, her face full of displeasure.
Qi Xiuxu leaned forward and handed her the cup of water on the table.
Xu Zhenqu obviously also remembered the severance agreement, which his whole family had signed.
He smiled awkwardly, "After all, even if your bones are broken, they are still connected. Mom and Dad are actually worried every day about whether you are having a good time out there."
He watched Ji Jinhe and Qi Xiuxu's familiar behavior of keeping the balance, as if it had happened countless times before.
A vague guess emerged in his heart, and he looked at Ji Jinhe with scrutiny and surprise in his eyes.
His daughter is very beautiful, but unfortunately she is not very obedient and is not under the control of the Xu family.
Ji Jinhe had just finished drinking water when she heard his words. She put the cup down on the table with a bang and frowned in disgust.
"You Xu family members are so hypocritical and disgusting." But you can't scold Grandpa Xu.
Xu Zhenqu and the others' expressions changed when they heard this. They obviously didn't expect Ji Jinhe to be so disrespectful to them.
Ying Wanshu habitually frowned and scolded: "Ji Jinhe, is this how you talk to your elders?"
"She doesn't have elders like you." Qi Xiuxu spoke with a cold face without Ji Jinhe saying anything.
Ying Wanshu was frightened by his cold voice and took two steps back. Xu Jinlin stepped forward and stood in front of her.
At this time, Xu Jinxi's hypocritical voice came, "Sister, we are here to see Miss Qi today, can you let her out?"
These two sentences brought the topic back on track, and Xu Zhenqu finally remembered the purpose of coming to the Qi family today.
He looked at Ji Jinhe, "Jinhe, please ask Miss Qi to come out. We are here for business today."
He thought that Ji Jinhe was holding a grudge against the Xu family, which was why she didn't allow Miss Qi to come out to see them.
Xu Zhenqu glanced at his watch. Time was running out and Weiming Group couldn't delay too long.
There is no time to care about the relationship between Ji Jinhe and Qi Xiuxu now. The most urgent thing is to meet Miss Qi and let Ling Yue participate in the Mingxi plan again.
"Yeah, sister, please stop making trouble." Xu Jinxi also frowned, and his eyes seemed to be condemning.
Qi Xiuxu's expression turned even colder, and Ji Jinhe held his hand to prevent him from speaking.
She glanced at the few people with a half-smile in her eyes: "Want to see Miss Qi?"
"Jinhe, just let Miss Qi come out." Xu Zhenqu's expression softened and he repeated it again.
"Sure," Ji Jinhe said casually, "It's far away, but it's right in front of us."
The Xu family members looked around the room but didn't see anyone else.
Xu Jinlin couldn't help but frown and said, "Jinhe, it was indeed our fault before. I can apologize to you, but now the matter is serious. Please stop teasing us."
There was no one else in the room. Ji Jinhe was lying to them.
"Yes, sister..."
"Tsk." Ji Jinhe frowned impatiently, reached out and picked up Qi Xiuxu's fingers and started to play with them irritably. "I don't have the leisure to lie to you. If you don't want to see me, get out."
"Jinhe..." Xu Zhenqu opened his mouth and wanted to say something.
At this moment, a woman's voice came from outside.
"Miss, the blueberries in the backyard are ripe."
Several people from the Xu family looked back suddenly, and when they saw that the person coming was a middle-aged woman, disappointment flashed in their eyes.
Aunt Liu walked in with a bowl of blueberries. She saw several people standing in the living room with puzzled expressions. "Huh? We have guests?"
As she spoke, she placed the bowl of blueberries in front of Ji Jinhe and said with a smile, "You loved blueberries the most when you were a child. Come and try some."
"Thank you, Aunt Liu!" Ji Jinhe picked up a few blueberries and put them into her mouth, her eyes slightly curved.
Aunt Liu smiled happily, her eyes passing over the shoe covers on the Xu family members' feet. "I'm sorry, I only prepared some for my daughter, and I don't have any extra fruit."
The room was silent and no one could answer her.
Ji Jinhe chewed blueberries and squinted his eyes at the four people standing there in a daze and without saying a word.
Ying Wanshu felt like she was going crazy. The daughter she had always looked down upon and adopted from the countryside was actually called "Miss" by the servants of the Qi family.
The details that she had previously overlooked flashed through her mind. Ji Jinhe once said that her adoptive parents died when she was fourteen, and she also said that her adoptive parents' surname was Qi.
Qi Family...
The Qi couple both died in a car accident seven years ago...
Some details that had been overlooked before came to mind. Ying Wanshu was so shocked by the answer she came to in her mind that she almost couldn't stand. She held Xu Jinlin's arm tremblingly, breathing rapidly.
She used to despise Ji Jinhe for being from a small town and not knowing the rules of etiquette...
The expressions of the other people were not much better. They could naturally think of the same problems that Ying Wanshu could think of.
Xu Jinxi recalled meeting Ji Jinhe on the first floor of Lingyue Technology. Coincidentally, Miss Qi Er was there that day...
Xu Jinlin looked at Ji Jinhe with an indescribably complicated expression on his face.
Xu Zhenqu felt dizzy when he thought about how he had even been reluctant to take Ji Jinhe back to the Xu family. Fortunately, it was Grandpa Xu who took the initiative to bring Ji Jinhe back.
Ji Jinhe sat on the sofa and looked at their expressions, only finding them funny. She leaned happily into Qi Xiuxu's arms, raised her head and said silently, "Look at them."
Qi Xiuxu looked down at her, a smile flashing across his eyes. He reached out and took the wet tissue beside him to carefully wipe her fingers that were stained with juice.
Aunt Liu glanced at them, then turned and left the living room.
After a while, Xu Zhenqu reacted and looked at Ji Jinhe with a flattering smile: "Jinhe, it turns out that the family that adopted you was the Qi family. Why didn't you tell your father..."
"Just say what you want to say." Ji Jinhe interrupted him again and glanced at him sideways.
Xu Zhenqu paused awkwardly, then continued with a smile, "Look, I think the conditions Lingyue proposed can be relaxed. Weiming Group really needs Lingyue's participation..."
"Really? I don't think so." Ji Jinhe leaned against Qi Xiuxu's arms, and Cheng Feng's words from yesterday flashed through her mind, "The weather is getting cold, and the Xu family should go bankrupt."
Qi Xiuxu lowered his head and looked at her, his eyes flashing with some emotions, and he smiled and agreed with her: "Okay."
