Right now, he couldn't find a way to break through to Stage Four, so he had some free time on his hands. Moreover, he hadn't seen Xiao Yu for a long time, so it was his fault that he missed her.
Jiang Prefecture was quite far from Island # 1, but it would not take long for Ji Feng to arrive at Jiang Prefecture by plane.
Just as he walked out of the airport pa.s.sageway, Ji Feng saw Ji Xiaoyu waving her hand and waiting for him.
He quickly walked in front of Ji Xiaoyu and said with a smile, "I haven't seen you for a while. Xiaoyu has also grown into a big girl!"
At this moment, Ji Xiaoyu was wearing a pair of rusted red pants that gave off a hint of Harrenhal elegance. Her originally green student attire had now changed to that of a fas.h.i.+onable city lady. Coupled with her beautiful appearance, she had a unique charm.
However, Ji Xiaoyu blushed and coquettishly said, "Third brother, you've also learned bad things from second brother. You only know how to tease me!"
Ji Feng laughed heartily, "What I just said is the truth. If you don't believe me, you can look. The surrounding people are all staring at you!"
Ji Xiaoyu wrinkled her nose, "Third brother, if you keep talking like that, I won't care about you anymore!"
"Let's talk inside the car." Ji Xiaoyu said.
"Alright then!"
Ji Feng nodded his head. This place was indeed not a place for people to talk, and there were many people looking in their direction. Regardless of the situation, it wasn't good for them to continue discussing here.
"Xiao Yu, your car …"
"Beautiful, right? This is what sister-in-law gave me! " Ji Xiaoyu proudly said.
"Sister-in-law?" Which sister-in-law? " Ji Feng asked.
Ji Xiaoyu could not help but complain, "Third brother, you are so terrible. In the past, I had to take the bus or the subway to work every day. You didn't even know how to give me a car.
Ji Feng was startled, he did not expect that Tong Lei would make such an arrangement, but that was the right decision, just by looking at the smile on Xiao Yu's face, he knew how much she liked this car.
Ji Feng couldn't help but sigh. One of the reasons why the Ji Clan had been able to hold on for so many years wasn't just because of the old man. It was also because of the education that the clan's elders had given to their juniors.
With Ji Xiaoyu's ident.i.ty, if she wanted a car, what kind of car wouldn't she be able to get? Even if she wanted the world's most expensive limited edition, there would definitely be people who would eagerly deliver it to her. Even the most expensive customized edition wasn't out of her reach.
However, this girl still squeezed into the bus to work!
"How could I have so much money!"
Ji Xiaoyu snorted, "The company I worked for was too stingy. I only graduated from the undergraduate school and was only given 4000 points per month. Luckily, second brother helped me find a house, otherwise, with my rent and living expenses, I wouldn't even have a month's salary left and I would still have the money to buy a car."
Ji Feng laughed involuntarily, "Then how can you raise it now?"
Ji Xiaoyu said, "I've changed jobs! Someone dug me up with a high salary, and my salary is going to double! "
"You?"
Ji Xiaoyu looked at him and immediately shook her head. "No! I'm not going to work at your company, so it's boring! "
Ji Feng was amused, "Little girl, is there no point in working for a job with a high salary? "Then what kind of work is interesting?"
Only now did Ji Feng realize that Ji Xiaoyu had actually done a pretty good job. Originally, he knew that Ji Xiaoyu worked in a cosmetics company. However, he did not expect her to become a supervisor after such a short period of time.
Ji Feng suddenly realized that in this period of time, he cared too little about the people around him. His focus was all on the construction of Island # 1 and the matters concerning the dynasty.
"Third brother, why are you in a daze?!" While Ji Feng was lamenting in his heart, Ji Xiaoyu had already sat in the car and lowered the window.
"Third brother, it's dinner time, I'll treat you to a meal." Ji Xiaoyu said.
"Alright!"
"Today, I shall follow your arrangements."
He could tell that there must be something wrong with the girl. She was just a bit hesitant, as if she hadn't thought of how to explain it to him yet. He couldn't help but feel moved. Could this girl be in love?
Very soon, the dishes arrived. Ji Feng smiled and said, "Hurry up and eat. This dish of yellow crocodile must be eaten while it's hot. If it's cold, the taste will change."
Only when they were almost done eating did Ji Xiaoyu finally ask, "Third brother, why don't you ask?"
Ji Feng laughed, "What do you want to know?"
Ji Xiaoyu said in a displeased tone, "Before, you kept asking me why I wanted you to come to Jiang Prefecture. Why are you so focused on eating that you don't even ask!"
Ji Feng was delighted, "Just now, I asked you, but you didn't say anything!"
"Did something difficult happen?" What, you can't even talk to third brother anymore? " Ji Feng asked.
"Third brother, second uncle wants me to come home for dinner!" Ji Xiaoyu suddenly asked.
Ji Feng asked, "What's wrong?"
He knew that his second uncle, Ji Zhenguo, was extremely fond of Xiao Yu, especially his second aunt. He knew that his second uncle, Ji Zhenguo, was extremely fond of Xiao Yu, especially his second aunt. Thus, when he heard Xiao Yu's words, Ji Feng was not the least bit surprised.
"He... Let me go with someone else! " Ji Xiaoyu said.
"With others? With whom? " Ji Feng was taken aback.
But very quickly, Ji Feng reacted, "Xiao Yu, are you in love?"
Hearing Ji Xiaoyu's somewhat embarra.s.sed words, Ji Feng understood what was going on.
It turned out that yesterday, when Ji Xiaoyu was out playing with her boyfriend, Second Aunt came to visit Xiao Yu and met her boyfriend. After returning home, she must have told Second Uncle that Xiao Yu was in a relations.h.i.+p, so Second Uncle called and told Xiao Yu to bring her boyfriend over for dinner.
Ji Feng knew that eating was just a side effect. Second Uncle wanted to see Xiao Yu's boyfriend, and that was the truth!
"Xiao Yu, you … Are you living with your boyfriend? " Ji Feng suddenly asked.
Ji Xiaoyu quickly shook her head and said with a flushed face, "Yesterday, he just happened to come looking for me and Second Mother met him. Therefore, she might have misunderstood …"
Initially, he thought it was strange. It was normal for youngsters to be in love, and normally, Second Uncle wouldn't recklessly ask about this sort of thing. Obviously, Second Aunt met her boyfriend at Ji Xiaoyu's place, so she a.s.sumed that the two of them were already living together.
In the eyes of the older generation, this was an extraordinary matter. If it were any other young people living together, perhaps it wouldn't be a big deal. However, since it involved their own nieces, Second Uncle and Second Aunt would immediately take it seriously.
"Then you asked me to come here to protect you? Or do I have to give you courage? " Ji Feng asked with a smile.
"No, it's just that my boyfriend is a bit … "He's too honest. I'm afraid second uncle isn't satisfied." Ji Xiaoyu was a bit worried.
Ji Feng was stunned, "Too honest? Xiao Yu, tell me about this boyfriend of yours. "Girl, seriously, you're still hiding it even after you've fallen in love. You didn't even say it to me, if it wasn't for Second Aunt coincidentally meeting you, how long do you plan on hiding it?"
Ji Xiaoyu felt somewhat embarra.s.sed, "I haven't decided on how to explain it to you."
"Alright, tell me about your boyfriend." Ji Feng did not say anything. This la.s.s's skin was thin to begin with. Although she was lively and lively, she was not someone who could wipe away her face. She would feel embarra.s.sed if she were to say too much.
"His name is Wu Peng, he's from East China, and his family is from the countryside. His family isn't very rich." Ji Xiaoyu said. As she spoke, her gaze was fixed on Ji Feng's face, as if she wanted to clearly see his reaction.
"Yes."
Ji Xiaoyu gaped for a moment. She had never imagined that Ji Feng would react in such a way. Hesitating, she asked, "Third Brother, is it possible that rural people are not so good?"
Ji Xiaoyu smiled when she heard this.
