840 Destined to be Together
Shen Hanxing and Ji Yan did not continue watching. The two of them went out again and got into the car to return to the Ji family. When they reached home, it was already late at night. Ji Qian and Ji Mo were having fun while Ji Ning was sitting obediently beside his grandmother and talking to her intimately. The once cold house had somehow been filled with warmth and love, becoming a place that could be called home.
Noticing Ji Yan and Shen Hanxing’s return, Ji Qian and the others were delighted and called out to them happily. Grandma also asked, “Why did you come back only now? Have you eaten? Are you hungry?”
“I’ve eaten, but I’m not full.” Shen Hanxing rubbed her belly and smiled coquettishly at Grandma. “The food at home tastes better. I want to eat Grandma’s cooking.”
“I want to eat too!” Ji Qian revealed a drooling expression and pitifully coquettishly said, “Grandma, make me a bowl of delicious food too.”
Grandma smiled and patted Ji Qian’s shoulder. “I’ll make something for all of you. After you’re done eating, let’s go for a stroll. I’ll go cook something now.” Hence, Ji Qian and the others cheered and escorted Grandma into the kitchen.
“Mr. Ji, what are you thinking?” Shen Hanxing tilted her head and looked over. Sensing Ji Yan’s absent-mindedness, she waved her hand in front of him in amusement. “What are you thinking about?”
Ji Yan’s eyes fell on Shen Hanxing, and his focus was all on her. Compared to his previous life, he only felt a sense of reality after Shen Hanxing came. He would never allow such a peaceful life to be broken, not even by himself.
“It’s nothing.” Ji Yan drooped his eyelids and rubbed Shen Hanxing’s head twice. “I was just thinking it was my great fortune to meet Mrs. Ji.”
“Meeting Mr. Ji is also the most fortunate thing in my life.” Shen Hanxing subconsciously looked up and smiled sweetly at him. Wasn’t he her savior? The two of them looked at each other and felt a subtle feeling rising in them. The atmosphere was quiet and beautiful.
At this moment, Grandma, who had gone to the kitchen to cook, suddenly walked out again. She waved at Ji Yan. “Forgetful me. I’m getting old, and my brain isn’t working well. Ji Yan, come over. This is a gift from grandma.”
Ji Yan lowered his head and took a look. On his grandmother’s palm, which was covered with traces of age, was an exquisite auspicious cloud bracelet woven from the red string. It was decorated with a small golden pendant.
“Silly child, there’s nothing to thank me. Don’t treat me as an outsider.” Grandma smiled and patted Ji Yan’s hand before turning around and returning to the kitchen to continue cooking.
Ji Yan held the bracelet in his hand and stood where he was, showing a rare look of helplessness. The man who had always been confident of victory as if omnipotent had a blank expression. Looking at the small bracelet, he actually felt as if he was facing a great enemy for a moment.
Seeing this, Shen Hanxing smiled in amusement and said, “I’ll help you put it on, Mr. Ji.”
Ji Yan’s heart was unbelievably gentle. His black eyes were like a boundless ocean as he quietly watched Shen Hanxing.
“It’s done.” Shen Hanxing swiftly helped Ji Yan put it on, then reached out and placed her hand beside his. “Look, it’s a custom-made couple bracelet now.”
Ji Yan saw that Shen Hanxing’s wrist was thin and fair. It looked even more delicate than his as if it could be broken with a little force. She was also wearing a red bracelet on her jade-like wrist. It was the same as the one on his wrist. When placed together, it was as if the two of them were tied together. Ji Yan couldn’t help but smile at this thought. He wrapped his large hand around her palm and said gently, “Yes, my Mrs. Ji and I have a couple’s bracelet.”
