Chapter 127 Feeling Panic
Xia Qingqian had a simple dinner at home and had been waiting for Ji Fengfan. There was no news from him and he hadn't come back either. She always felt a little uneasy.
Then I thought, he was going back to his home, what could happen? I was too nervous. I shook my head, put on my pajamas and went to take a shower.
After washing up, she lay on the bed. She originally wanted to turn on the TV to watch a drama, but she couldn't find the drama she wanted to watch after flipping through the remote control. She turned off the TV and started to watch short videos on her phone. After watching for a while, she didn't really watch the content seriously. The short videos that she usually watched happily by herself suddenly felt boring tonight. She put her phone on the bedside table, turned off the light and lay down, trying to see if she could fall asleep.
She tossed and turned in bed but couldn't fall asleep, so she simply sat up. The screen of her mobile phone on the bedside table lit up, and she hurriedly picked it up. Ji Fengfan, who had disappeared for several hours, finally sent her a WeChat message. She felt visibly relieved, and the restlessness and depression she had felt all night were relieved the moment she received the WeChat message.
She opened the WeChat message and saw that Ji Fengfan said he had to go on a business trip and would be gone for a week. She seemed a little depressed again. She replied with a "OK" and lay back on the bed.
After the two of them were together, she seemed to become pretentious.
Ji Zhai.
Uncle Wang, the housekeeper, did not dare to go to the ancestral hall without the old man's permission. After sending the old man back to his room, he went downstairs and happened to meet Ji Yunxi walking in.
She had just come out of Ji Fenghe's room. When she came back at night, she saw that he had a wound on his face. After dinner, she, as a younger sister, originally planned to care for her brother, but he didn't appreciate it at all and even drove her out of the room.
It looks like he must have been fooling around somewhere and got beaten up. He really deserved it.
Her mother was so heartbroken that when she came out, she saw her mother carrying food to her brother's room.
"Miss Yunxi." Uncle Wang stood aside and greeted her respectfully.
Ji Yunxi looked around and confirmed that there was no one around. Then she walked to Uncle Wang and asked quietly, "Uncle Wang, what happened to Grandpa tonight? Who made him angry again?"
Uncle Wang raised his head and looked around, then whispered to Ji Yunxi, "Master Fan came back today, and as soon as he came back, he was called to the ancestral hall by the master. He must have been whipped, and he is still kneeling in the ancestral hall. The master doesn't let anyone go to see him, and I'm worried about him..."
Ji Yunxi's eyes widened, "Brother Xiaofan is still kneeling in the ancestral hall?"
"Yeah, I was thinking about sending him some food, but the master wouldn't let me. Sigh~" Uncle Wang sighed heavily, "I can only wait until tomorrow morning to go over and take a look."
Old Master Ji's family has always been very dignified. After hearing what Uncle Wang said, Ji Yunxi did not dare to go to the ancestral hall to see Ji Fengfan privately. She lowered her head thoughtfully and could not think of any good solution. If her grandfather found out that she went to the ancestral hall, she would probably be the one kneeling there tomorrow night.
"Miss Yunxi, you should also go to bed early." Uncle Wang said and left the living room.
Ji Yunxi stood there, still thinking about how Ji Fengfan was whipped by his grandfather and was now kneeling in the ancestral hall, feeling a little worried.
"Yunxi, why are you standing here?" Ji Fengchuan's gentle voice interrupted her thoughts. Ji Yunxi raised her head and saw Ji Fengchuan coming back from outside with a scarf around his neck, wearing sportswear and running shoes, as if he had just come back from a night run.
"Brother~" Ji Yunxi was still thinking about Ji Fengfan, and a look of worry was written all over her face.
"What's wrong?" Ji Fengchuan asked, wiping the sweat from his face with a towel.
"Brother, was Brother Xiaofan called back by Grandpa tonight? It seems he was whipped and is kneeling in the ancestral hall now. I am a little worried about him..."
Ji Fengchuan was stunned for a moment, then he raised his usual gentle smile and said to Ji Yunxi, "Really? I don't know yet, but it's best not to interfere with grandpa's decision, and this time... it was indeed Third Brother who did something wrong. He was the one who beat your brother on the face."
"Ah? Brother Xiaofan hit my brother? Why?" Ji Yunxi was even more surprised. She didn't expect that it was related to her brother. Brother Xiaofan didn't seem like that kind of person. "Did my brother do something to provoke Brother Xiaofan?"
Otherwise she couldn't understand why. If it was his brother who provoked Brother Xiaofan first, it would seem to make sense.
Ji Fengchuan glanced at her and continued, "No matter what the reason is, you know that grandpa is averse to brothers fighting each other. This time, third brother really made grandpa angry, so don't get involved. If grandpa punishes you later, your eldest brother won't be able to help you."
Ji Yunxi had been spoiled since she was young and had a simple personality. After hearing what Ji Fengchuan said, she originally wanted to secretly go to see Ji Fengfan, but now she began to back out.
It's really scary when grandpa is angry.
"But Brother Xiaofan hasn't had dinner yet, I'm still a little worried..." Ji Yunxi said softly.
"How about this, brother, go and take a look after you take a shower, then you will feel relieved." Ji Fengchuan said.
"Really?" Ji Yunxi seemed to see hope. Grandpa liked her eldest brother the most now. The business performance of her eldest brother was booming and he was praised by grandpa many times. Even if he was discovered, it would probably be nothing serious.
Ji Fengchuan nodded, "Yes, really." Then he reached out and rubbed Ji Yunxi's head, looking like a good brother, and urged, "Now you feel relieved, go back to bed, it's getting late."
"Okay, thank you, big brother. I'll go back to my room then." Ji Yunxi turned around and went back to her room with peace of mind.
Ji Fengchuan looked at her back as she jumped away, smiled lightly, and went back to his room. Zhou Wenwei took the two children back to her parents' home. He took a leisurely shower and blew his hair dry before remembering what he had just promised Ji Yunxi. He sat expressionlessly on the edge of the big bed with his head down. The expression on his face was hidden by his hair, making it look unreal.
He changed his clothes, opened the door and walked out.
When he arrived at the ancestral hall in the backyard of the villa, the door was closed and the lights were off. He walked to the window and could see the left side of Ji Fengfan, who was still kneeling in the middle of the hall. However, Ji Fengfan had his eyes closed and his head lowered, so he could not see the expression on his face clearly.
He took a quick glance and thought to himself, he's quite resilient and looks like nothing's wrong. Yunxi was worried about him for nothing.
Then he left the ancestral hall and returned to his room.
