“Alright!” Wang Yunmei said as she stood up and walked towards the kitchen.
Seeing this, Jian Ai said to Jian Yu, “I’m going to see Jiachi.”
As soon as Jian Ai left the living room, her phone on the coffee table rang. Jian Yu picked it up and saw that the caller was Haoxue.
Jian Yu naturally remembered Ji Haoxue. Seeing this, he picked it up.
“Hello,” Jian Yu said. “Are you looking for Jian Ai? Wait a moment.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Jian Yu stood up and was about to go to Jiachi’s room. Unexpectedly, Ji Haoxue heard Jian Yu’s voice on the other end of the phone and quickly said excitedly, “Brother Yu, is that you?”
Jian Yu paused.
Brother Yu.
This nickname.
Although he was not used to it, she was talking to him. Jian Yu had no choice but to answer, “It’s me.”
On the other end of the phone, Ji Haoxue bounced up from the bed in excitement. Countless colorful bubbles flew out of her heart. Brother Yu’s voice was so pleasant on the phone. Oh my, she was going to die!
Although she was screaming in her heart, Ji Haoxue had to maintain a refined and reserved expression. “Ah… Brother Yu, I’m Haoxue. Do you still remember me?”
“Tremember,” Jian Yu said calmly.
Ji Haoxue held the phone and wanted to invite Brother Yu to the Ji family as a guest over the phone, but she was so nervous that her heart was about to fly out of her throat. After thinking for a while, she could not say a complete sentence.
On Jian Yu’s side, Jian Ai came out of Jiachi’s room. Seeing her brother holding her phone, she couldn’t help but blink at him.
“Who is it?” Jian Ai asked softly as she walked closer.
Jian Yu returned the phone to her and whispered, “Haoxue.”
Jian Ai immediately understood. She took the phone and put it to her ear. Before she could say anything, Ji Haoxue seemed to have just mentally prepared herself. An uneasy voice came from the other end. “Ah… Brother Yu, I want to invite Sister Xiao Ai to my house to play. Do you have time? You can
come with her.”
“Haoxue?”
Jian Ai called out.
On the other end of the phone, Ji Haoxue was stunned. ‘Eh? A change of person?”
She came back to her senses and blurted, “Ah, Sister Xiao Ai, it’s me.”
Jian Ai heard her clearly and couldn’t help but smile. “Why? Are you inviting my brother to go over as well?”
She initially wanted to say something to Brother Yu, but Sister Xiao Ai heard it! Even through the phone, Ji Haoxue’s face was red with embarrassment. She said stubbornly, “Ah… Brother Yu answered the call, so I just asked him casually.”
“Yes…” Jian Ai dragged her voice and thought for a moment before saying, “Tlll discuss it with him later and see if he wants to go.”
“Alright!” Ji Haoxue quickly agreed but did not dare to push her luck, afraid that she would be seen through.
“What time do you prefer?” Jian Ai asked.
“How about five in the afternoon tomorrow? I’ll send you the address later!” Ji Haoxue said.
Jian Ai agreed readily. “Alright, no problem.”
After hanging up, Jian Yu couldn’t help but look at his sister curiously. “You two are friends?”
Jian Ai smiled and raised her eyebrows. “Yes, she’s quite cute. Brother, do you know who she is?”
Jian Yu blinked. “Who?”
“Young Master Ji’s sister!” Jian Ai didn’t keep him in suspense and said straightforwardly.
Jian Yu was stunned for a moment before revealing a surprised expression. “Young Master Ji’s sister? Isn’t that Old Master Ji’s biological granddaughter?”
