Chapter 048 Dead
On March 31, before leaving the door in the morning, Ji Wei took out an envelope and asked Duan Ning to buy a better set of clothes at noon. Duan Ning nodded and agreed.
When he came back early in the afternoon, Ji Wei stared at Duan Ning's "Li Ning" and asked with a dark face: "Didn't I ask you to buy a better set of clothes?"
Duan Ning smiled and said, "It cost 800 yuan in total. I think it's a bit expensive. What do you think?"
Ji Wei's anger that had just been extinguished last night suddenly became "live" again, staring at him with a dark face, without saying a word.
Duan Ning scratched his hair: "Why don't you buy it now?"
Ji Wei was so angry that she turned around and walked towards the stairs. Five minutes later, she also walked down wearing a sportswear and said with a cold face: "Let's go!"
It was Ji Wei who drove the car. As soon as the car left the community, Duan Ning's phone vibrated. When he saw that it was Tong Lisha who called, he hung up the first time, but he didn't expect that he called again.
Now Duan Ning is not able to hang up again, so it doesn’t seem guilty if he hangs up again!
"Ahem - is there something wrong?"
Ji Wei was driving the car, but her ears were actually already erect. There was a female voice in her cell phone, and she was not very old when she heard the sound.
"Sorry, I have something to do now, I can't go."
Ji Wei followed a car ahead and turned left. After she got on the straight lane, she continued to prick up her ears and listened.
"If you have something to do... come here..."
The intermittent voice told Ji Wei that Duan Ning was very familiar with the other party, and she even heard the smell of acting coquettishly from the other party's tone.
An electric car drove in front of him into the motor vehicle lane, and Ji Wei honked the horn and urged him angrily.
At this moment, Duan Ning said, "I really can't get through tonight, let's talk about it tomorrow night!" Then he hung up the phone.
Ji Wei held her breath and waited, wanting to hear Duan Ning explain. As a result, the car got on Hengshan Road and drove halfway, but Duan Ning didn't even wait for an explanation.
Ji Wei was really annoyed now. There was a fork in front of him. Ji Wei turned on the turn signal and pulled over to park the car.
She couldn't figure it out, why did she explain to him when she had dinner with her classmates, and she wouldn't explain to her when he dated a strange woman?
When Duan Ning saw her suddenly pulling over, she didn't say why. It probably was related to the phone call from Tong Lisha just now.
Explained: "That's right. Didn't I write a song a few days ago, and then I was bought by a bar owner. The other party asked me to go over and sign a few supplementary agreements."
Ji Wei held it in and almost suffered internal injuries, so she resisted the urge to expose him on the spot.
The song has appeared online. Last night, she specially checked the singer's information. None of them have anything to do with him, including lyrics, arrangements, and singing. How dare he say that it was a song he wrote?
Since he was "bragging", Ji Wei knew she couldn't ask anything.
After restarting the vehicle, Ji Wei began to introduce the personnel in the family.
"My second and third uncles are typical businessmen. Don't take what they say seriously, and you don't have to deliberately please them, they won't appreciate it."
"My fourth aunt has always been mean, and you don't have to take what she says too much. As for my fifth aunt, she divorced two years ago."
When talking about the fifth aunt, Ji Wei hesitated for a moment before saying, "If she doesn't ask you on her own initiative, try not to talk to her."
After analyzing it for him, Ji Wei finally said, "Since I've said this, I need to remind you again. According to the contract, you must explain it to me in advance if you go home at twelve o'clock in the evening."
Gripping his teeth, Ji Wei said again: "Of course, you can stay away at night, but in that case, our contract will be invalid."
Duan Ning glanced at Ji Wei, with a smile on his face as usual, and nodded to show that he knew.
Ji Wei wanted to say something else, and wanted to ask him why he came back very late a few nights ago, but he swallowed it again when he said something.
As she mentioned just now, while that contract restricts Duan Ning, isn’t it a mountain between Hengheng? Even if it is barely dug through, what are the intentions of two exhausted people to talk about love and imagine the future?
...
The family gathering location is next to Ningjing Temple, surrounded by embassies of various countries. In addition, the quiet park is elegant and has complete facilities, making it a good place to be quiet in the midst of chaos.
The house is still an old-fashioned villa from the end of the last century. It is not very luxurious in Jiangdong, but it is a symbol of wealth. Those who could afford to live in a villa at that time were really rich.
Under the red walls and green tiles, there were a series of small cars parked at the door of the villa, but in addition to a few luxury cars, most of them were mid-range cars. The X5 was also there.
Duan Ning and Ji Wei got out of the car, one black and one red, and they looked quite compatible with each other, but they just couldn't look at their faces.
One of them can't be picked up if thrown on the street. There is also a delicate face and delicate figure. The charm of a strong child is even more colorful.
The two kept a distance of ten centimeters and walked towards the gate.
As soon as he arrived at the gate, a young man holding a phone walked out of the house quickly, still saying, "I didn't tell you, don't call me today--"
The young man didn't even look at them, but he walked past them.
"Buy, buy, buy, buy when you go back. That old man..." The young man said sweet words while cursing something and walking away.
Ji Wei glanced at the young man's back and turned around and entered the room with Duan Ning.
The house is big and the living room is also big. There is a huge hand-embroidered pine hanging on the wall, and the flower stand on the side is filled with various ancient handicrafts. There is also a servant-like woman squatting on the ground, sorting out gifts.
The men, women, young and old were laughing, children were running, adults were laughing, and a few women who were looking very pampered were helping to make dishes in the open kitchen. They looked harmonious.
Ji Wei took Duan Ning over and came to a spirited and silver-haired old man, and shouted respectfully: "Grandpa."
Duan Ning looked at Mr. Ji from behind. He wore a Zhongshan suit at home, which showed that he was nostalgic. His hands, covered with old spots, were thick and calluses. This was an old man who had suffered all his life. He also had eyes that had insight into the world, although it was shining with the setting sun, but it was still sharp.
The old man was in a good mood, said "Here you come", and continued to talk to the younger generations around him.
Ji Wei was a little embarrassed, not sure whether she should introduce Duan Ning. She was not going to leave for a while, nor was she stayed.
Duan Ningba should not be low-key, the better. Since Ji Wei does not introduce him, he will definitely not take the initiative to greet him.
Family affection is based on emotions. Except for Ji Wei's family, he has no relationship with the rest of the Ji family. He is completely strangers, and he is even worse than Logan and Tong Lisha and the others.
After all, Ji Tongwen was an old-fashioned person. Seeing Ji Wei still standing there, he noticed Duan Ning behind her, and then asked with a smile: "This is the little Duan your father said, right?"
Ji Wei nodded: "Well, his name is Duan Ning."
"Swish--"
In an instant, more than a dozen pairs of eyes looked at Duan Ning, with surprise, cautious, disdainful, sneering and guarding in their eyes. Then, like changing their faces, they all changed into smiling faces with unknown meanings.
Ji Wei helped introduce: "This is my uncle."
"Hello uncle."
"This is my second mother."
"I took the liberty to bother."
"This is my fourth aunt."
"I've caused you trouble."
Finally, Duan Ning touched his nose, walked to Ji Tongwen and shouted, "Hello, old man, Duan Ning, I pay my respects to you."
The slightly joking tone made Ji Wei frown in an instant, and she felt even more annoyed.
On the way, I clearly told him that his grandfather was very old-fashioned and didn’t like frivolous people, so why did he still have no sense of his words?
Ji Tongwen stared at Duan Ning and looked up and down, bent and straightened his fingers on his knees, and didn't speak for a long time.
"What did you just say?"
The old man said nothing emotionally, which made the entire living room quiet all of a sudden. The children who were still playing next to him were all covered by their own adults, and everyone stared at Duan Ning with a look of watching the show.
"that……"
Duan Ning scratched his hair, looking embarrassed: "Ji Wei said you are quite old-fashioned, but when you saw that you were like my grandfather, and you were also a kind elder. So the boy used to treating you as my grandfather."
Ji Wei is so angry. Is there anyone who says that you are talking like this? In front of my grandfather, Is it because I said he is old-fashioned? Isn’t this a demolition?
Also, if she remembered correctly, his information clearly stated that his grandfather passed away ten years ago. What does this mean? I cursed that her grandfather died early!
There was a circle of people around, and the smell of gloating on their faces became stronger.
Ji Tongwen is famous for his old-fashion. Do you think it would be useful to say that he is just like his grandfather? Little do you know that this will only make the old man even more disgusted.
Who knew that Ji Tongwen actually asked with interest: "Oh, how is your grandfather's health?"
Duan Ning told the truth: "He has passed away."
