Before he died, my grandfather forced me to marry the richest man in the capital.
Chapter 228 Xu Mingkai 1 with 2
At that time, on the 38th floor of the Tihou Hotel, Ji Hancheng was forcing his child to learn too much, pointing with dissatisfaction at the crooked and messy words written by Xiaoyouzi.
"Write this character on another line. Once it's written correctly, then you can come down."
Little Yuzu wanted to argue, but his vocabulary was limited, and he pouted, longing for his mother to come back and save him.
In contrast, Lu Jinnan was different. He was lifting Little Strawberry up high and even trying to negotiate, "Yueyue, let Daddy lift you up even higher, and you can call me Daddy once, okay? We'll just call you once, secretly."
Yueyue hesitated, but seemed somewhat persuaded. She opened her mouth slightly. Lu Jinnan looked at the girl's expression, which was a mixture of excitement, trepidation, and anticipation.
"Dad." A soft, sweet voice rang out in the quiet living room.
An untimely, sarcastic voice rang out, "Useless. You're overjoyed just because you said 'Dad.'"
Lu Jinnan was very happy and didn't hide it, saying, "I'm happy, I'm willing. If you're so capable, tell your sister-in-law that you don't care if Lele calls you 'Dad'."
Speaking of Tang Junyao, Ji Hancheng picked up his phone from the table again and tagged him and Lu Jinnan in the three-person group chat that had been set to disappear and do not disturb.
Out of curiosity, I clicked to take a look. I wish I hadn't looked; once I did, I saw... "............
Didn't she say she was at a beauty salon? This woman has learned to lie.
Lu Jinnan wanted to say something to him, but he saw that Lu Jinnan's eyes were fixed on his phone, his face was gloomy. He patted his daughter's head and took her to look at the phone.
"Damn it, they went to Tess to have fun, leaving us at home to take care of the kids..." Lu Jinnan's voice suddenly rose when he saw the photo, with a hint of complaint in it.
The chat interface contained four photos sent by Han Yue: one was a close-up of Tang Junyao as a single woman, another was of Su Xue, another was of Lan Yunxi, and the last was a group photo of the four of them.
They sat together and had a tea party.
Thank goodness it wasn't a hot dance on the dance floor.
In the photo, Tang Junyao is wearing jeans and a shirt. Her skin is very fair, and Ji Hancheng's hair, which is of an indistinct color, is casually draped over his shoulders. He has a big smile on his face and looks very happy.
Ji Hancheng suddenly stood up and said to Lu Jinnan, who was standing next to him, "You watch the child, I'm going out for a while," and then he started to walk out.
How could Lu Jinnan possibly agree to this? Why should he stay behind to lead two others?
Holding Xiaocaomei in one arm and gripping Ji Hancheng's arm tightly with the other, Lu Jinnan said, "How about we take the child to President Lan?"
Ji Hancheng withdrew his arm in disgust, then immediately dismissed his idea, "He went out to discuss a project."
Lu Jinnan had a flash of inspiration and thought of a particularly suitable candidate, "Why don't you call Xu Mingkai over? I think he's quite suitable."
"Go ahead and hit her. If you don't, look how nice your sister-in-law looks today. Who knows which young heartthrob might have his eye on her? Besides, there's such a big age gap between you two."
"You're quite a bit younger than Miss Su, so don't try to act young with me."
Lu Jinnan didn't think he was old at all. If he dressed in bright colors, who would know how old he was? Unlike Ji Hancheng, who wore black every day, looking like he was going to a funeral, he looked much older.
Standing next to his sister-in-law is like an old cow eating young grass.
Despite saying that, Ji Hancheng still took out his phone and called Xu Mingkai. "Where are you?"
Xu Mingkai, sitting across from him, flattered him and pledged his loyalty, saying, "I'm on the 37th floor. I just booked this room today so that Young Master Ji can come whenever he calls."
Ji Hancheng didn't waste any words or pay attention to his flattery, "Come up to the 38th floor."
Soon after, Xu Mingkai arrived at the 38th floor, panting, and knocked on the door.
Lu Jinnan opened the door, grinning at the panting Xu Mingkai, "I'm giving you a chance to practice ahead of time."
Xu Mingkai, looking completely bewildered, asked, "Young Master Ji, what's the matter?"
Seeing that Xu Mingkai had arrived, Ji Hancheng picked up the clothes from behind the chair and put them on, unbuttoning the top button of his shirt. "I'm going out for a bit. These two children are in your care. I'll reimburse the room fee."
Xu Mingkai wanted to say: I have no experience in taking care of children, and I'm taking care of two at the same time.
Xu Mingkai, trying to reason with him, suggested, "Young Master Ji, how about I call Mrs. Ji..."
Receiving Ji Shao's sharp gaze, she timidly changed her words, "No need, no need, I think I can handle it, Ji Shao, please go ahead."
Seeing Xu Mingkai change his mind, Ji Hancheng looked away and said to Xiaoyouzi, "Write well, and I'll check it when I get back. Don't cause any trouble."
Little Yuzu answered obediently as she diligently did her homework, "Okay."
After saying that, he strode towards the door. Lu Jinnan was still lingering behind him. He kissed his daughter and said, "Daddy's going to find Mommy. You play with Uncle here for a while. Say goodbye to Daddy."
Little Strawberry simply waved her hand, without repeating what Lu Jinnan had asked her to say.
After the two left, Xu Mingkai was left looking bewildered. He was adept at handling company matters, having honed many skills over the years working with Ji Hancheng, and could handle many things on his own. However, he lacked the skill of taking care of a child; he truly had no experience in it.
Xu Mingkai walked up to Xiao Youzi, who was the ancestor of the Ji family, and said ingratiatingly, "Young Master, you're writing, and you write so well."
The next second, Xiaoyouzi had a bright idea and pushed the homework in front of Xu Mingkai, handing him the pen with her soft little hand, "Write."
Xu Mingkai: "............"
After a few seconds of stunned silence, she realized what was happening and asked Xiaoyouzi incredulously, "You mean you want me to write it for you?" She pointed to herself.
I can't believe that such a young child came up with this idea.
Little Yuzu nodded seriously, "Mm."
Xu Mingkai glanced at Xiaoyouzi's determined eyes, then reluctantly picked up a pen and began to imitate the young master's notes, writing stroke by stroke, inwardly groaning.
It feels like he's reliving his kindergarten years; the young master is being made to experience early childhood again.
After Xiaoyouzi handed in her homework to Xu Mingkai, she and Xiaocaomei played with their favorite toys in the living room.
The only difference was that the person being supervised was reversed. During this time, Xiaoyouzi would occasionally look at Xu Mingkai's handwriting, as if she could actually understand it.
Meanwhile, Tess's four women were chatting and having a tea party.
After Xi Xi and Guo Guo's research, they have basically agreed on how to win over Han Yue, leaving Tang Jun Yao and Su Xue, who were watching from the side, completely stunned.
Su Xue and the others knew that girls in Lancheng were more open-minded about love than those in the capital. However, they were quite surprised that Xi Xi, who had never been in a relationship before, was actually going to pursue Han Yue, this ice block.
Putting aside whether he can catch up or not, he will definitely be frustrated in the process. Xi Xi has been pampered since she was a child, how can she withstand Han Yue's harsh criticism?
Tang Junyao couldn't help but worry that Xixi would get hurt. Han Yue's words were not something an ordinary person could withstand. She earnestly advised, "Xixi, I still think you should give up. Han Yue is not so easy to pursue."
Lan Yunxi was determined. Once a girl makes up her mind, it's hard to change it. She won't turn back until she hits a wall. Just like the major she chose now, it was because she saw how cool Lan Yunchen was doing his programming. She was impressed by her brother's coolness and wanted to learn programming wholeheartedly.
Anything that Lan Yunxi thought was cool or awesome, she was determined to conquer, and she actually succeeded in doing so, gradually even coming to enjoy the fun of it.
It's often said that someone's attraction to another person is based on physical attraction, and Lan Yunxi doesn't deny that she was attracted to Han Yue's appearance.
Lan Yunxi pouted and stubbornly refused, "No, I have to win him over."
Tang Junyao rubbed her aching temples. "Xixi, Han Yue is a person, not a computer. Aren't there lots of handsome guys at Blue City University?"
Xi Xi: "But none of them are my type."
Tang Junyao: "............." gasped.
Should we tell my brother about this?
Forget it, let's not talk about it for now. Maybe Xixi will only be enthusiastic for a short time and give up after being rejected by Han Yue a few times.
Su Xue laughed and said, "Why don't you let Xixi give it a try? Maybe she'll really be won over?"
Tang Junyao glanced at Su Xue, who really seemed to enjoy watching the drama unfold. "Shut up, eat your food."
Han Guoguo was just as excited as Lan Yunxi at this moment, especially eager to see if Han Duidui could handle this soft and cute girl. In any case, she liked her very much.
She said excitedly, "Xixi, if you can win over my brother, I guarantee this repressed guy will treat you very well."
Xi Xi asked suspiciously, "Why?"
Han Guoguo shared in a serious tone, "That's how it is in the TV dramas I watch. Usually, the repressed guys are all hypocritical. They say no but they mean yes. But when they meet someone they like, they might turn into a teddy bear."
Su Xue: ".............."
Xi Xi: "............"
Tang Junyao inexplicably identified with Ji Hancheng's character; could he be considered a repressed pervert?
