Chapter 939: A Name No One Dared to Mention
Ji Haoxue pulled open the curtains. The warm sunlight shone in and instantly lit up the room.
Ji Haoyu’s beautiful peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly. When he saw the sunlight, he felt better.
“Are you okay?”
Seeing that her brother did not seem to feel well, Ji Haoxue could not help but walk closer to size up Ji Haoyu. She frowned and asked, “How much did you drink? It’s already one in the afternoon, but you’re still not up!”
“You drank with Brother Jiahao?”
“Tsk.” Hearing Qiu Jiahao’s name, Ji Haoyu snorted as if he had heard something dirty. Then, he said, “Would I get drunk with him?”
Ji Haoxue was stunned. “Then who did you drink with? Don’t tell me you drank so much alone?”
“With your Sister Xiao Ai, of course.” Ji Haoyu smiled smugly.
When Ji Haoxue heard this, she couldn’t help but reveal a look of understanding. “Sister Xiao Ai went on a date with you after coming back from her trip. No wonder you were so smug.”
In Ji Haoxue’s heart, she had already treated her brother and Sister Xiao Ai as a passionate couple.
The terrifying thing was that Ji Haoyu enjoyed the illusory world his sister had created for him. He immediately said with satisfaction, “Yes, your Sister Xiao Ai was also thrilled and drank a lot.”
Ji Haoxue rolled her eyes at him. She returned to the sofa and sat down. “Grandpa asked you to go back for the family banquet today. He has something important to say.”
When Ji Haoyu heard this, he paused and asked, “Did Grandpa say that?”
Ji Haoxue nodded and repeated, “He said that you have to go back.”
Ji Haoyu raised his handsome eyebrows, showing that he understood.
“Brother.” Ji Haoxue suddenly looked at Ji Haoyu with a serious expression and said, “Is Grandpa going to hand the Ji Group to you?”
When Ji Haoyu heard this, he couldn’t help but smile and look up at his sister. “How did you tell?”
Ji Haoxue pursed her lips. “Isn’t that what everyone at home says? Moreover, Grandpa didn’t go to the Ji Group for a while. Haven’t you been helping him manage the corporation?”
Ji Haoyu nodded. “I feel it too. That might be the reason today.”
The old man had already thought of retiring two years ago, and Ji Haoyu had also come into contact with the Ji Group’s affairs two years ago. After two years of polishing and training, the current Ji Haoyu had already become an heir who could independently support the number one financial group in Asia.
“Brother,” Ji Haoxue called out softly. Her gaze landed on Ji Haoyu’s face, but there was some hesitation in her eyes.
Seeing this, Ji Haoyu was slightly stunned. He could not help but ask with concern, “What’s wrong?”
Ji Haoxue pursed her lips and looked at Ji Haoyu before asking carefully, “Have you ever thought about looking for Dad…”
Ji Yansong was the eldest son of the Ji family and Ji Haoyu and Ji Haoxue’s biological father. He was the heir of the Ji Group that Old Master Ji liked the most.
However, Ji Yansong suddenly left home eight years ago and was never heard from again. Old Master Ji used all the connections and methods he could, but Ji Yansong seemed to have disappeared from the face of the earth. He could not find any traces of him.
Later, his name became taboo in the Ji family. No one dared to mention it again. Not in front of Old Master Ji, let alone Ji Haoyu!
