‘Wu Yong heard this and stood to the sid
‘s Miss Xiao Ai, right? Please come in.”
Jian Ai was not reserved. Seeing this, she entered the door without looking at Ji Haoyu.
Ji Haoyu looked at Jian Ai’s slender back and only smiled. He entered the Ji residence in his slippers.
A quiet stone path with green plants and flowerbeds on both sides was tidied up. Jian Ai looked at it curiously as she walked, but she realized that the Ji residence was shockingly big.
After walking for a while, they saw a marble fountain. Behind the fountain was the Ji family’s main house.
Ji Haoxue was already waiting at the door. When she saw Jian Ai, she immediately waved excitedly. “Sister Xiao Ai!”
‘When she saw Ji Haoyu appear behind Jian Ai, Ji Haoxue’s smile froze.
Why was her brother back? She didn’t tell him about today!
“Tm not late, right?” Jian Ai walked to Ji Haoxue’s side and asked with a smile.
Ji Haoxue quickly shook her head but lowered her voice. “Sister Xiao Ai, I didn’t tell my brother. I don’t know why he’s back.”
Jian Ai couldn’t help but smile. “It’s okay, I don’t care.”
Moreover, this was Ji Haoyu’s home in the first place. She couldn’t possibly not let Ji Haoyu come back just because she was a guest, right?
She was not the emperor, so why would outsiders avoid her?
Seeing that Sister Xiao Ai was not unhappy, Ji Haoxue was relieved. On second thought, she thought about it. Her brother and Sister Xiao Ai knew each other, so she would not be angry. They were not enemies!
She warmly let Jian Ai enter the villa. Jian Ai changed into slippers at the door before following Ji Haoxue into the living room.
There was a floor-to-ceiling window in the living room. On the sofa, Old Master Ji was drinking tea in home clothes.
“Grandpa Ji!”
As soon as they met, Jian Ai greeted him politely.
‘When Old Master Ji saw Jian Ai, he was stunned for a moment before revealing a surprised expression. “Eh? So it’s you, little girl!”
Jian Ai smiled and nodded. “It’s me, Grandpa Ji. Long time no see. How are you?”
“Haha…” The old man immediately laughed. “Very good! This granddaughter of mine said that she knows a new friend. In order to make her happy, I asked her to invite her friend to our house as a guest. I didn’t expect it to be you, little girl.”
Ji Haoxue looked at the two of them and couldn’t help but say in surprise, “Grandpa, you know Sister Xiao Ai?”
“Yes, yes!” Old Master Ji immediately said, “Sister Xiao Ai saved my life!”
“Ah? When did this happen? Why didn’t I know?” Ji Haoxue was stunned. She was the last person in her family to know Sister Xiao Ai.
Seeing this, Jian Ai quickly said, “It’s already been a few months. Grandpa Ji, don’t make it sound so serious. It’s just that I was coincidentally present at that time and knew how to handle it. I can’t bear you saying that I saved your life.”
“You’re still as modest as before.” Old Master Ji shook his head helplessly and smiled. Then he waved at them. “Don’t stand there anymore. Quickly, come and sit down. Since you’re at Grandpa Ji’s house, treat it like your own house. You don’t have to stand on ceremony.”
Jian Ai smiled and nodded. “Thank you, Grandpa Ji.”
As they were talking, Ji Haoyu, who had fallen behind, also entered the house.
The old man was delighted again.. “Haoyu is back too!”
