This is a matter of wanting to get Ji Haoqi and Ye Yu expelled from school? Is it targeting the Ji family? Or the Ye family? Or is it that all these families are in this situation? Are there people hidden there? It seems it's time to investigate properly.
Han Dong thought a lot but showed nothing on his face. He stayed with Ji Mingyi, telling her about his work. When everyone had finished dinner, Ji Mingxue, at Han Dong's signal, called him into the study.
Ji Mingyi thought her brother wanted to talk to her about something and didn't pay much attention. This was because Ji Xingmi was currently taking her pulse!
After Ji Xingmi released her hand, she said, "You're very healthy! Just keep it up!"
"That's good!" Hearing Ji Xingmi say there was no problem, she truly felt relieved. She now had absolute faith in Ji Xingmi's medical skills.
"Xing'er, can you tell the gender? I heard that some skilled TCM doctors can tell!"
Ji Xingmi didn't answer her mother's question but instead asked Ji Mingyi, who was sitting by smiling, "Do you want to know, Aunt?"
She shook her head and smiled, "It doesn't matter if it's a boy or a girl, they're all my treasures!"
"What boy or girl?" Han Dong happened to come over and heard half of the conversation before asking.
"I was asking Xing'er if she could tell the baby's gender, and your Mingyi said it doesn't matter whether it's a boy or a girl!" Ji's mother helped explain.
"I'd hope for a little princess so I can dote on them together! But a boy is fine too, then we two can protect you together!" Han Dong and Ji Mingyi were being affectionate, and Bi Qingchu, unable to stand it, ran off to find her own man.
Ji Xingmi also smiled and walked away. She didn't want to stay and witness the PDA, after all. Coincidentally, Gu Jingyi arrived then, so she went to talk to him.
"Elder Hua asked you to visit when you have time. He'll be visiting Japan soon."
Ji Xingmi nodded and then asked, "Will you go too?"
Gu Jingyi didn't hide anything. "Yes, and many people will be going with us."
"Then you must take care of yourselves! By the way, did you know about what I did today? What's the situation with that Wang Fei?"
"He has some connection to the Feng family, but not a significant one. There's no one left in the Feng family now, so it shouldn't be related to them." Gu Jingyi held her hand and analyzed.
Ji Xingmi really couldn't figure it out. "What do you think their motive is for doing this?"
Gu Jingyi looked at her frowning in thought and instinctively reached out to smooth her brow, saying, "Don't overthink it. Your uncle has taken over now, and there will be results soon. Perhaps it's just their own actions. Ye Yu and Haoqi's efforts might have made them jealous, which is why they're trying to stir up trouble!"
"I'm still concerned about what he said. I hope there won't be any trouble later."
"There won't be!" Gu Jingyi could only comfort her like this.
Gu Jingyi walked with Ji Xingmi for a while, then returned to take her home. When they returned, they happened to encounter Ji's aunt and uncle preparing to leave. Han Dong wanted to tease his niece, but Ji Mingyi grabbed his waist and left. Seeing them interact this way made Ji Xingmi very happy. Gu Jingyi, however, looked envious. He wished Ji Xingmi could interact with him like that, but it seemed almost impossible. Still, even as things were, it was already very good; one should be content.
However, his expression was quickly caught by Ji Xingmi, and an idea sparked in her eyes. So, before Gu Jingyi could recover, she reached out and pinched his waist. Gu Jingyi was caught off guard and the pinch landed squarely.
"Hiss~"
Ji Xingmi quickly retracted her hand and retreated to a relatively safe position, saying, "I saw you looking envious just now, I thought you wanted to try it too? Does it hurt? Should I go lighter?" but there was a teasing expression on her face.
"Fine~ I'm envious! Come here!" Gu Jingyi had to endure it, gritting his teeth. Besides, this little pain was nothing. Who let her be his ancestor? He couldn't be harsh; he could only spoil her.
Seeing that he wasn't going to blame her, Ji Xingmi walked over. Gu Jingyi intertwined his fingers with hers and they walked home. They casually found another topic to chat about and soon reached the doorstep.
"I won't see you in? When are you planning to go to Elder Hua's? So I can come pick you up!"
"In a few days. I'll prepare some things these few days and bring them for you then!"
"Okay! Then you go in. Goodnight!"
"Goodnight!" Ji Xingmi waved goodbye and went inside. When she entered, only Ji Haocheng was sitting in the living room reading the newspaper. Ji's father and mother were nowhere to be seen; had they gone up to rest so early?
"Big brother, where are Mom and Dad?"
"They were stimulated by Uncle and Aunt, and said they're going on a date!" Ji Haocheng shrugged helplessly.
"Oh~ Big brother, how have you been lately? There should be no problem with Xu Rui, right?"
"Mm! A while ago, I accompanied her to a place she used to stay. I suppose her knot has been untangled. It's just that she's having new troubles lately." Ji Haocheng looked troubled when he mentioned this, not knowing how to handle the matter or how to face Xu Rui more appropriately.
