86 Call Me Brother Ji
Old Master Ji was also a little stunned by Ji Jun’s mother’s sudden change. He asked his grandson softly, “Didn’t your mother pull a long face just now? Why did she suddenly change her attitude and become so enthusiastic?”
Ji Jun glanced at Yu Han, who could not resist Mrs. Ji’s enthusiasm. He guessed that his mother must have recognized Yu Han, but he said, “Nothing is certain.”
“Aiya, look at me. I forgot to introduce myself to you. My name is Wu Wei. I’m that brat Ji Jun’s mom. You can call me Auntie or Auntie Wu.”
Yu Han could only continue, “Hello, Auntie. I’m Yu Han.” She handed her a white bag. “This is my greeting gift to you for our first meeting. I didn’t have time to prepare it because I was in a hurry. I hope you don’t mind.”
When Wu Wei heard this, the enthusiasm on her face increased. “It’s good that you’re here. Why are you preparing a gift? You’re a junior. Logically speaking, we should prepare a greeting gift for you instead…”
“Ahem!” Seeing Wu Wei standing there and occupying Yu Han, Old Master Ji could only pretend to clear his throat and cough twice to remind her. “Since our guest is here, please come in quickly. Why are we standing at the door?”
Only then did Mrs. Ji realize that she had indeed been a little rude. She had no choice. Yu Han looked too similar to her mother, so she lost her composure.
Yu Han’s mother’s name was Chen Meng, and she grew up with her. Later on, she married Ji Jun’s father, who was of equal social status. Meanwhile, Chen Meng’s girlish thoughts were focused on the poor boy, Yu Tian. Their circumstances were different, so they grew apart. However, their childhood relationship was still there.
Later on, Chen Meng was seriously ill. Wu Wei received the news and rushed back from overseas. Chen Meng was so thin that she was lying on the hospital bed like a skeleton. It was already very difficult for her to even speak. It was also at that time that Chen Meng told her that she was worried about her daughter.
“I’m afraid Yu Han can’t take good care of Hanhan. I’m worried about her alone.” As the saying went, there was no filial son in front of a hospital bed for a long time. Actually, it was the same case for husband and wife. Ever since Chen Meng fell sick and lay in bed, she had more time to focus on her husband and daughter. Then, it was very easy for her to discover that something was wrong with Yu Tian.
However, Chen Meng was already so sick that she could not pursue the matter. Hence, she could only turn a blind eye. There was only one thing that she was worried about—her daughter.
Seeing that Chen Meng did not have much time left, Wu Wei was sad. For her sake, she agreed to let Ji Jun and Yu Han get engaged.
Unexpectedly, Chen Meng left the next day after saying this. At that time, Yu Tian had yet to show his true colors and was still a kind father, so Yu Han was extremely dependent on him. Seeing this, Wu Wei could not interfere in the matters between the father and daughter. In addition, something happened in her company, so she hurriedly left the country.
All these years, she had been busy overseas. Occasionally, she would think of asking about Yu Han’s situation. They all said that she was doing well in the Yu Family. Although Yu Tian was a little strict, her stepmother was very kind to her. Hence, Wu Wei was relieved.
Now that she saw that Yu Han had grown into an adult and looked exactly like Chen Meng when she was young, Wu Wei had mixed feelings. That was why she was so excited.
Wu Wei glared at Ji Jun. Yu Han was clearly that girl, so it was impossible for him not to know what was going on. Hence, this kid must have deliberately hidden it from her, causing her to almost become a joke.
For a moment, she was a little worried. She thought that the person who was coming to eat was a little girl who liked to cling to others, so she only prepared a meeting gift. Now that she knew that the little girl was Yu Han, she felt that this meeting gift was too cheap and unworthy for Yu Han.
Old Master Ji did not know Mrs. Ji’s dilemma. When he saw the obedient little girl greeting him, the seriousness on his face disappeared and he smiled brightly. “Good. She’s an energetic girl.”
“You’re also an energetic old grandpa.” Yu Han glanced at the dimples on his face and then at Ji Jun’s face. It was a pity that he didn’t inherit the dimples. Otherwise, he would be so cute when he smiled. With this contrast, nobody would say that he was sulky.
“It proves that we’re healthy.” Old Master Ji moved aside. “Let’s go in and rest.”
“Alright, thank you, Grandpa Ji.” Only then did Yu Han greet Ji Jun, who had been standing at the side without saying anything. “Hello, Teacher Ji.”
When Old Master Ji heard her way of addressing Ji Jun, he immediately shouted, “What Teacher Ji? He’s only a few years older than you. You can just call him Brother Ji.”
