At this moment, in the Ji family’s mansion.
Ji Haoxue had already moved back to the Ji residence a few days ago. Although the Ji residence was big, she could see her family everywhere. This allowed Ji Haoxue’s mood to gradually recover.
In the bedroom on the top floor, Ji Haoxue was half-leaning against the bed frame. She had a conflicted expression on her face and was holding a pink phone. The contact list showed Sister Xiao Ai’s phone number.
After hesitating for a while, Ji Haoxue finally put the phone aside.
It had been a month since the incident. Ji Haoxue had barely pulled herself out of the shock, but she was not worried about herself. She was worried about Jian Ai.
However, she didn’t have the courage to contact Sister Xiao Ai because all of this happened because of her.
The scene of the foreign woman walking towards Sister Xiao Ai with a dagger was a terrifying nightmare she couldn’t get rid of. After that, she fainted. She didn’t know what happened after that. However, this scene made her blame herself even more. Because of her, Sister Xiao Ai almost lost her life.
If Brother Yu knew about this, he would hate her, right?
After all, Brother Yu loved Sister Xiao Ai so much.
The more she thought about it, the more upset she felt. Ji Haoxue hugged the doll and cried sadly.
“Miss Haoxue…”
Not long after, the nanny’s voice came from outside the door. When Ji Haoxue heard this, she glanced up and casually wiped her tears.
“I’m here. What’s wrong, Auntie Hua?”
Ji Haoxue tried her best to sound normal. Because Grandpa did not know about this, she could not let others see she had something on her mind.
If Grandpa knew she had been kidnapped, he would be worried.
Auntie Hua, who was outside the door, heard nothing wrong in Ji Haoxue’s voice. She immediately answered, “Everyone is here. Old Master asked you to go down. We’re about to eat.”
“I understand. I’ll go down now,” Ji Haoxue agreed.
Today was the Ji family’s weekly family banquet. Ever since Ji Haoxue returned, Ji Haoyu would appear punctually at the weekly family banquet.
With his favorite grandchildren by his side, Old Master Ji’s body became stronger. His insomnia symptoms had mostly recovered, and he had stopped his Chinese medicine for a long time.
The living room downstairs was very lively. The Old Master’s two younger brothers, Second Master Ji and Third Master Ji, had arrived early. His second son, Ji Yanbai, had also entered the house with his wife and daughter. Even Ji Haoyu, who usually attended banquets on time, had returned to the Ji residence an hour early today.
On the sofa, they chatted animatedly. The main topic was that Old Master Ji had less than ten days to his birthday.
“Brother, there are only a few days left. If you don’t give us instructions, we can help you arrange it,” Second Master Ji sat next to Old Master Ji and said gently.
Third Master Ji immediately chimed in, “That’s right, Brother. Do you think we should do it at home or go to a hotel like last year?”
Old Master Ji had a gentle smile on his face. When he heard this, he only smiled and waved his hand. “I’m already old, and I can’t do anything anymore. At this age, every birthday is exhausting. In my opinion, let’s just go to our family banquet. We can just have fun at home.”
“Dad, how can we do that? There are family banquets every week. Birthdays are different. Even if you want nothing else, find something festive and auspicious,” Ji Yanbai immediately looked at the old man and said.
“Grandpa, Second Grandpa, Third Grandpa, and Second Uncle make sense. We can’t be careless about birthdays.. It has to be done well.”
