Chapter 1323
“Little brother, second brother, what are you talking about down there? Why don’t you come up?” Li Yantong’s voice came over. They had already gone upstairs, and both Ji Feng and Ji Shaolei were still at the stairway without going up.
“This is coming!” Ji Feng shouted.
But Ji Shaolei said in a low voice, “San’er, I’m reminding you, when we go in later, if we see that Yan Tong’s friend is a girl, then it’s fine, but if it’s a guy, then eight out of ten `9 times it’s a boyfriend. When the time comes, we have to keep a watch for Yan Tong, otherwise if that guy really has problems, it will be too late to regret later!”
Ji Feng nodded and said, “This is definitely something we have to keep a check on, but second brother, your personality is suitable for communicating with people, when the time comes, if it really is a male, then you can talk to him more, after talking for a while, I think we will have pretty much figured out what kind of personality he has and what kind of heart and temper he has.”
“Why do you let me do this kind of thing?” Ji Shaolei said, “I’m not good at communicating with people either.”
“You’re the one who is the older brother.” Ji Feng said.
“…… count on you kid!” Ji Shaolei held his tongue for a moment and hummed, “Finding a reason that I have no way to refuse.”
Ji Feng laughed heatedly, but his heart was flooded with mutterings.
If Ji Shaolei hadn’t reminded him, Ji Feng wouldn’t really have had any other thoughts, but after Ji Shaolei said so, Ji Feng couldn’t help but feel a stir in his heart.
Second brother is right, Li Yantong is a big beauty, and is a graduate student, highly educated, and has a gentle and kind …… character. At least in the two times that Ji Feng has been in contact with her, he has not seen that she has any domineering or ruthless side, her character, some weakness.
This kind of girl can be described as talented and relatively good control, I believe that as long as a man, there is no do not want to find such a woman as a wife.
But the problem is that not all men come with the intention of finding a wife.
There was a part of them that had bad intentions, and moreover, this part was not in the minority, which made Ji Feng have to be wary.
The reason why Ji Feng couldn’t think of this before was because he didn’t often hang out in society and saw fewer people or things, but his second brother, Ji Shaolei, was different. He was the boss of Jian’an Group, and in order to do business, he had to attend various social gatherings and some entertainment venues, so he had seen a lot.
Therefore, Ji Shaolei would always keep an eye on everything. In this regard, Ji Feng thought he was not as good as his second brother, which was worth learning from him.
“But isn’t it that both myself and second brother are too paranoid? In case people are not that kind of bad person at all, and they find out that they and second brother are testing him, this is more or less awkward …… Well, forgive him for not being able to say anything, it’s not a bad thing to keep an extra hand!” Ji Feng muttered in his heart and followed upstairs.
In fact, to say that in normal times, Ji Feng would never be so indecisive, much less so sentimental. Now it was different, coming here, Ji Feng had to pay attention to everything and deliberate on everything he did, afraid that a thoughtless move on his part might bring some harm to Aunt Li Yueqin and his sister Li Yantong, that was the last thing Ji Feng wanted to see!
“I’ll open the door!” Coming to the door of the room, Li Yantong took out the key.
At this time, they only heard a burst of laughter coming from inside the room, and the few people in Ji Feng were a little surprised that it was Auntie Li Yueqin’s laughter, but what kind of guest had come to the house that would make her so happy?
Li Yantong blushed slightly and quickly opened the door, saying loudly, “Big brother, you guys come in quickly, it’s too hot outside, come in and cool off for a while!”
“Yan Tong’s face is red, I’m afraid it’s really her boyfriend!” Ji Shaolei’s face was calm, his mouth was slurred and whispered, if you didn’t listen carefully, you wouldn’t know what he was saying.
Ji Feng nodded imperceptibly and carried the convenient bag in last, and he casually brought the door with him.
By this time, Ji Shaodong and the others had all arrived in the living room.
“Auntie, look who’s come to see you!” Ji Shaodong pointed at Ji Feng and the others behind him and said with a smile.
Ji Feng immediately stepped forward and said politely and sincerely, “Auntie, we’ve come to see you.”
“Ji, Ji Feng?” Suddenly seeing Ji Feng, Li Yueqin was equally startled, and then a forced smile appeared on her face, “What are you guys ……”
“Hehe …… is like this, it’s been a long time since I came to visit auntie and sister Yantong, this is not the eleventh long holiday has arrived, so I sought to come over to see you, auntie, are you all okay lately?” Ji Feng said with a smile.
“Good! All good!”
Li Yueqin nodded, “Right, all sit down, hurry up and sit down, I’ll pour water for you guys!”
“Auntie you don’t need to be busy, just let Yu Xuan and the girls do these things.” Ji Feng said.
When he said this, Xiao Yuxuan and Tong Lei were already heading in the direction of the kitchen, Xiao Yu even said, “Auntie, it’s fine for us juniors to do these things, you should rest first.”
“This, how bad is this ……” Li Yueqin was a little unnatural.
Ji Feng laughed: “Auntie, if you are always so out of touch, you will make us think we are outsiders.”
Li Yueqin then smiled a little unnaturally, but did not say anything else.
“Ee?”
Ji Shaolei suddenly made a surprised sound, “Auntie, this gentleman is ……?”
It was only until this time that Ji Feng noticed that in a corner of the living room, there was a young man sitting …… Of course, to say that he was young, yet he was also speaking from his age group, which was only about twenty-six or twenty-seven years old.
This man was wearing black-rimmed gla*ses and was sitting in a corner of the sofa, seemingly because the sight of so many people suddenly coming in had made him not quite comfortable and he looked a little restrained.
“Oh, this is Yan Tong’s cla*smate who came to sit at home, I saw that it was already mealtime, so I didn’t let him go!” Li Yueqin said, “Little Fang, these are all Yan Tong’s brothers and younger brothers.”
“Hello guys!” Xiao Fang nodded honestly and greeted Ji Shaodong and the others with some restraint.
Ji Shaodong nodded and smiled, “Hello.”
Ji Feng, however, looked at him twice more and then glanced at Auntie Li Yueqin.
There was something wrong with the introduction that Auntie Li Yueqin gave between them, she didn’t introduce the names of both parties at all, nor did she say that they should get to know each other, she only vaguely mentioned each other’s identities.
In doing so, she either thought that Li Yantong’s cla*smate was not too important and there was no need to introduce her in such detail, or she did not want to introduce this young man called Xiao Fang to them and did not want Xiao Fang to have too deep a contact with them.
Judging from the fact that Auntie Li Yueqin could keep Xiao Fang for dinner, Ji Feng felt that it should not be that this Xiao Fang was not very important.
Then it could only be the latter possibility – Auntie Li Yueqin didn’t want them to get to know each other.
“Xiao Fang, you and Yan Tong were cla*smates, did you go to university together or are you now following the same tutor?” Ji Shaolei asked with a smile, while taking out a cigarette from his pocket and handing it over, “Here, have a cigarette!”
“Thanks, I don’t know how to smoke!” Xiao Fang smiled good-naturedly and waved his hand to decline.
“It’s good that you won’t smoke, smoking is really not good for your body …… By the way, did you hear my question clearly just now?” Ji Shaolei turned his words around and asked again.
“Um, yes, I am now following the same tutor as Yan Tong.” Xiao Fang nodded his head.
“So you’re studying law as well?” Ji Shaodong interjected and asked.
Xiao Fang nodded, “That’s right, studying law, but the direction I’m studying is still a bit different from Yan Tong, I’m studying law in the field of finance and economics ……”
“So that’s it, law in economics is not good to learn, right?” Ji Shaolei asked with a smile.
“It’s also okay, as long as you are serious and willing to learn, and then practice more, you can basically master it.” Xiao Fang said.
Li Yueqin said, “Yes, I heard from Yan Tong that Xiao Fang is very diligent in his studies, and he even won a scholarship last semester, and he is going to work in a law firm next, right Xiao Fang?”
“It’s not much, it’s mainly because the current policy is better and the scholarship covers a lot of people!” Xiao Fang said.
Ji Shaolei then smiled and nodded, “It seems to be very good!”
Ji Feng listened quietly next to him, not only occasionally skimming the faces of Xiao Fang and Aunt Li Yueqin without a trace, taking in all their subtle expressions, making sure he had a good idea, but not saying anything either.
The reason is that at this point Ji Feng had already seen that Xiao Fang was probably his sister Li Yantong’s boyfriend, and even if he wasn’t yet, it was close enough.
Moreover, Aunt Li Yueqin seemed to like this little Fang very much ……
The scene fell into a cold spot.
After everyone exchanged a few pleasantries, there seemed to be nothing more to say. Xiao Fang looked very restrained, just fiddling with his mobile phone with his head down, occasionally lifting his head with a naive smile when he heard a ring.
Ji Shaodong had nothing to say to Xiao Fang, he usually didn’t talk much, preferring to observe and ponder in his mind.
“Auntie, have you been all right lately?” Seeing that the room was cold, Ji Feng asked politely.
Caring about Li Yueqin’s health was what he should do as a junior, and it was often such words that broke the awkward and cold scene.
“Hey hey, it’s all okay.” Li Yueqin said.
“Aunty’s health isn’t too good, is it, I heard from Yan Tong that you got wet when you were out on the stall some time ago and ended up catching a cold for several days ……” Xiao Fang said as he looked up.
“That’s been many days ago, it’s fine now.” Li Yueqin interrupted Xiao Fang’s words.
“Out of the stall?!”
Ji Feng and Ji Shaolei looked at each other and asked at the same time, “Auntie, what kind of stall are you out for?”
“Nothing, just doing a little business when I’m bored.” Li Yueqin said, “How come Yan Tong hasn’t brought water over yet, this kid moves too slowly ……”
Ji Feng and Ji Shaolei’s eyes then both looked at their boss, Ji Shaodong, before they had heard that the boss had arranged an easy job for Li Yueqin, how come he was still letting her set up a stall now?
Chapter 1324
Although Li Yueqin said something very easy, saying that she was just bored so she went to set up a stall, in reality, neither Ji Feng nor Ji Shaolei would believe it.
“Auntie, aren’t you going to do that job?” Ji Shaodong asked.
Li Yueqin saw that she couldn’t hide it anymore, so she nodded and said, “It’s not that I don’t want to do it anymore, I just think, look at me, I’m an old woman, I can do whatever I want, besides, it’s better to let young people have such a good position, otherwise it’s not delaying them!”
“Someone is talking behind your back?” Ji Shaodong asked.
“No no, auntie just think, that position is not quite suitable for me, Shaodong you don’t think too much.” Li Yueqin hurriedly said.
“Really?!” Ji Shaodong asked.
“Of course it’s true, auntie can’t lie to you about this!” Li Yueqin said: “Now I got a tricycle, usually in front of the community market to sell fruit, we also happen to have a garage downstairs, a monthly rent is only four or five hundred, both as a warehouse and can put the car, very convenient, you do not have to worry about it.”
“But it’s not as easy for you to sell fruit as it is to collect money at the market, is it?” Ji Shaodong said, “Auntie, if there is any problem you speak, I usually work busy may come less, so many things are also not noticed ……”
“Nothing nothing, really nothing!” Li Yueqin said.
“Then …… well then, auntie if you have something, make sure to contact me in time.” Ji Shaodong nodded helplessly, Li Yueqin was very insistent, and he could not help it.
For example, this time, he clearly gave Li Yueqin arranged a fairly good position, but she secretly quit on her own, and not only that, she actually ran will home to start a small business, to set up a stall …… herself so insisted, then Ji Shaodong and what can be done?
“Boss, what kind of job did you originally arrange for your aunt?” Ji Shaolei asked, “Is it that job you arranged, where is it bad, but auntie can’t say it?”
“No no, Shao Lei you’re thinking too much.” Li Yueqin hurriedly explained, “Shaodong arranged for me to a vegetable market near the district, as a temporary administrator, usually just need to manage the fair scales, encounter the kind of customers who suspect that they are being short of catties, give them a re-weighing on the line, so a month’s income of more than a thousand yuan, really good.”
“Then why do you ……, Auntie?”
“Okay, Shao Lei, since An Yi doesn’t want to do it there anymore, then we’ll take our time and figure it out later.” Ji Shaodong said, and he turned his attention to Li Yueqin, “Auntie, do you go to the vegetable market every day now to set up a stall? What about the stall fee and many other issues, how do you solve them all?”
Li Yueqin said with some embarra*sment, “The fees are paid very little, after all, I used to be a vegetable market keeper too ……”
Ji Shaodong then nodded his head and did not ask any more questions.
In fact, now ask will not get too detailed answer, want to know what exactly is the reason, just wait to go back to check, all will be clear.
The headache now is that Li Yueqin’s attitude is still the same as before, almost without any change.
She was still treating all three brothers of Ji Shaodong as outsiders, even though to Li Yueqin, they were outsiders in the first place, but such a somewhat indifferent attitude still gave Ji Feng three people a sense of powerlessness.
A person’s level of effort is actually directly related to how much hope there is.
If hope can be seen, or even close at hand, then efforts will naturally be more energetic, if no matter how hard you try, you can’t see the end, no hope, then you may have to be discouraged.
This was the case with Ji Feng and Li Yueqin’s attitude, which left them helpless.
The actual fact is, just before they entered, they heard Li Yueqin’s very cheerful laughter, but after they arrived, Li Yueqin didn’t say smile, not to mention cold face even is quite good.
…… Such a huge contrast between the two sides made the three brothers of Ji Shaodong’s heart only laugh bitterly.
That young man called Xiao Fang also seems to have noticed something, raised his head, from time to time peeked at Ji Shaodong three, and then look at Li Yueqin, vaguely seems to understand what, there is a trace of curiosity in the eyes, it seems, and some indescribable …… ease?
Ji Feng is likewise sitting on the sofa in observing this Xiao Fang, of course his movements are untraceable, even Li Yueqin and Xiao Fang, did not notice that Ji Feng is observing Xiao Fang.
–in fact, to observe a person, it may not necessarily be necessary to observe from the face or eyes, the human body is a whole, what kind of mood you are in may not show on your face, however, a certain part of your body, will definitely have a reaction corresponding to it.
This was one of some basic skills that Ji Feng had once learnt in the training space.
After Xiao Fang sensed that the relationship between the three brothers, Ji Shaodong and Li Yueqin, did not seem to be that harmonious, his legs were slightly separated and his feet, which were originally slightly padded, were all put down.
The body was also sitting more or less casually.
–All this was a habitual action to lighten the mood.
Obviously, just now Xiao Fang was a little nervous, and then his naive smile made Ji Feng a little suspicious.
It was rather ridiculous to say that, in fact, at this time, Ji Feng didn’t even know what to do or say other than to think about these things, and Li Yueqin’s attitude made him really feel like he was going up the pole to please her, which was hard to bear.
So, Ji Feng had to shift his attention and observe what kind of character this Xiao Fang called was.
It’s not that Ji Feng thinks he’s a bad person, although there are many bad people in society now, but as long as you get along with others sincerely, the chances of meeting a bad person are not that great.
In fact, what Ji Feng was observing was what kind of character this person, Xiao Fang, actually had.
After all, it is now certain that this Xiao Fang is Li Yantong’s boyfriend, and may all have been approved by Li Yueqin, then Ji Feng naturally has to take a good look at ……
Fortunately, Li Yantong and others soon came out with tea, which made the slightly awkward atmosphere in the living room all but empty, and everyone was talking and laughing again.
Li Yueqin rarely spoke, and occasionally smiled when she heard a few young people talking about something interesting.
“For Yan Tong, you are almost graduating from graduate school, right, have you thought about where you want to work?” Ji Shaodong asked.
“I haven’t thought about it yet, there’s still half a year to go before I graduate, let’s talk about it then.” Li Yantong said.
Ji Shaodong then nodded and smiled, “Do a good job after you come out, studying law is getting more and more attention now, maybe you will be a very famous barrister in the future ……”
Li Yantong’s pretty face reddened and said, “Big brother, don’t make fun of me.”
“I do agree with that, Yan Tong’s academic performance is very good, and she is also very kind-hearted, in the future a will be a very conscientious barrister!” Xiao Fang also said with a smile.
“You’re the only one who talks too much!” Li Yantong glared at him.
A few people then all laughed, and Ji Feng also pulled the corners of his mouth.
The time pa*sed quickly, not long after, it was already mealtime, Li Yueqin was about to get up to go cook, but was stopped, so many people naturally can not let her go to cook, not to mention that there is only one small stove in the house, I am afraid that until the evening everyone may not be able to eat.
So in the end, it was Ji Shaodong’s decision to go to the small restaurant at the entrance to eat, and not to waste.
When several people left the door one after another, Ji Shaolei came to Ji Feng and said in a low voice, “San’er, what do you think?”
“Are you asking about Auntie Li Yueqin, or that guy called Little Fang?” Ji Feng rubbed the corners of his eyes with his hands, this way of getting along made him feel a bit tired.
“Of course it’s Little Fang!” Ji Shaolei said in a low voice, “Aunt Li Yueqin’s reaction, isn’t it all within our expectation, only today there’s suddenly a little Fang, so she’s even worse off saying anything, and maybe doesn’t want to say …… this all needn’t be anxious, take your time, hearts are all flesh and blood, you treat them well, they’ll See in the eyes.”
“Can I not hurry!” Ji Feng shook his head.
“What can I do if I’m in a hurry?”
Ji Shaolei stretched his hands, “After all, the barrier between her and us is too deep, wanting to get along like a family all of a sudden, how is that possible? The most important thing now is to improve the relationship between you and Yan Tong, you’re siblings anyway, that can’t be changed!”
“That’s right, that’s true!” Ji Feng nodded his head in a daze, “Second brother, you don’t say it, sometimes your vision is quite good!”
“What kind of words are those!” Ji Shaolei glared, “Then tell me, how about the one called Xiao Fang just now? …… Xiao Fang Xiao Fang, not even a name ah, the hell himself did not know to make a self-introduction, also looks like an honest kid, a little bit do not understand the world.”
Ji Feng laughed: “How do you know that people don’t know how to behave? Maybe people just don’t introduce themselves on purpose?”
“Sh, what do you mean?” Ji Shaolei froze.
“Let’s go, let’s take a look before we talk and find a chance to talk to him!” Ji Feng said, “I don’t think this guy is too honest.”
“Then let’s try him!” Ji Shaolei said.
When the duo walked downstairs, they saw that Ji Shaodong and the others had already gone far away, and only Li Yantong and the young man called Xiao Fang were waiting for Ji Feng and the duo.
“What are you two doing so slowly?”
Li Yantong asked with a smile, “This going upstairs belongs to you guys who are slow, and you are also the slowest in going downstairs.”
Ji Shaolei laughed, “It’s good to be slower, so you can walk more steadily. No matter what you do these days, it’s better to be steady.”
“Second brother, you’re still saying one thing after another.” Li Yantong pursed her lips and laughed lightly.
While the two of them were chatting, Ji Feng arrived in front of Xiao Fang and extended his hand, “Little …… Xiao Fang, right, there were a lot of people just now and there was no formal introduction, my name is Ji Feng and Yan Tong is my sister.”
“Oh, it’s Yan Tong’s brother ah …… hello, also introduce yourself, my name is Fang Ming, I’m your sister’s cla*smate.” Xiao Fang immediately shook hands with Ji Feng with a smile on his face.
The smile on Ji Feng’s face got even wider.
