“What do you mean by standing on Ji Jing’s side…l’m just stating the facts.” Ji Yi frowned.
Ji Lin’s words made Ji Yi feel uncomfortable. It sounded like he had betrayed someone, but her family was not Ji Jing’s enemy. Now that he could see clearly that Ji Jing was not the kind of person who would bully Yaoyao, why couldn’t they get along?
“Crack.”
Suddenly, the sound of the door being opened interrupted their conversation.
Ji Jing walked into the room as usual, only to find that several pairs of eyes were looking over at her with different expressions. Ji Jing looked at them in confusion.
What was going on? Why were the Ji siblings all here today? And why are they all looking over? When did she have such a high presence in the Ji family?
“You’re back?” Ji Ling, who was sitting at the head of the table, glanced at them and said nothing.” Let’s eat first.”
The kitchen was busy serving the dishes. Ji Yi and the others also gave up on the previous topic and invited them to sit down.
However, Ji Jing was keenly aware of the unusual meaning in their usual conversation. She didn’t really want to participate. She knew how embarrassing it would be to have a meal with the Ji family.
However, Ji Jing carefully sized up the few people who were busy. According to her observations in the Ji family these days, Ji Ming and Yun Yue did not have many restrictions on independent children. They would be busy with their own things.
The ones who were often at home were Yun Yue, Ji Ming, and Ji Yao. The others were randomly seen.
However, Ji Ming and Yun Yue were probably on a long trip today. Ji Lingqie had even gathered so many people to go home for dinner. It seemed like he had something important to announce.
She suddenly remembered Ming Ze’s hint that the Ji family was about to participate in a banquet, and that there would be a turning point for the local god.
Alright, alright! Ji Jing hesitated for a while, but in the end, she still sat at the end of the table.
Seventh Brother, I want to eat prawns.” The central position had always been Ji Yao’s.
“Okay, Seventh Brother will peel it for you.” Ji Mu was very considerate and cooperative. Her brothers would help Ji Yao deal with difficult dishes like prawns and crabs without letting her do anything.
“Yaoyao, try this. I remember that you like it, so I specially instructed the kitchen to make it.”Ji Hui seemed to care about Ji Yao as well.
“Thank you big brother, third brother is the best!”Ji Yao smiled happily.
“What about me? Yaoyao, what about me?” When Ji Lin heard this, he immediately felt wronged. He deliberately pretended to be sad.
“This… All brothers are the best!” There were too many people who doted on Ji Yao, so much so that she had to carefully carry the water.
“Oh, Yaoyao, you’re being very perfunctory.”Ji Mu teased her with an exaggerated expression.
“Alright, alright. Let Yaoyao eat in peace.”Ji Ying’s eyes were filled with condemnation.
If they weren’t discussing important matters, Ji Yao would always be the center of conversation at the dinner table. Whatever she did, what she received, what she was happy about, what she was sad about, her brother would accompany her. Anyone who saw it would have to praise him for being favored.
Ji Yao’s proud little eyes drifted towards Ji Jing, who was sitting in the corner, and there was still a smile on her lips.
Was she sad? Angry? Did he feel that he was being sidelined? No one at the table is paying attention to you. Do you think that others are family?
However, when Ji Yao looked at Ji Jing, her smile froze.
Ji Jing didn’t pay attention to Ji Yao’s performance at all. Most of the time, her gaze didn’t leave the rice bowl and the dishes. It was just a simple home-cooked meal. Ji Jing, however, ate carefully and attentively like a gourmet tasting a new dish.
Ji Yao thought resentfully,’He really hasn’t seen the world. Is there a need to eat so seriously?’ Or was he pretending for someone?
She probably couldn’t understand at all that there were people in this world who liked all kinds of delicacies and respected the work of chefs.
However, Ji Yao soon realized that whenever Ji Jing looked up, she would give Ji Ling some attention.
Big brother? Did she really care about her brother? Ji Yao’s heart was filled with hope, but she was also a little confused. Why should she pay attention to her brother?
Ji Jing actually didn’t have any other thoughts. She was purely eating while waiting for Ji Ling’s announcement.
She had a hunch that Ji Ling was going to announce something related to the banquet that Ming Ze had hinted at.
“Big Brother, I…” Ji Yao smiled.
“Hmm? “Yaoyao, let’s talk about this later.” Ji Ling was about to say something, but he didn’t have the time to pay attention to Ji Yao’s thoughts.” I asked everyone to come home today to inform you that there will be a charity party in C Cit in three days. All the aristocratic families and celebrities will be attending. We need it too.” The charity gala is divided into two parts. You can handle the dinner as you please, but we need to donate a certain amount for the auction..”
