Ji Haoxue quickly straightened her expression and glared at Ji Haoyu coquettishly. “Don’t change the topic. I have serious business to tell you!”
Ji Haoyu raised his handsome eyebrows, and a smile spread across his handsome face. “Serious business? What serious business?”
“I want to go to Erzhong to study,” Ji Haoxue said.
Baiyun Erzhong!
This school was undoubtedly very familiar to Ji Haoyu.
However, Ji Haoyu did not think too much about it. He only asked curiously, “Why did you suddenly decide to go to Erzhong?”
“Because Xiao Ai is from Erzhong. Didn’t I say that we’ve become friends?! Brother Jiahang is also from Erzhong, so I want to go to Erzhong too!”
Ji Haoxue casually explained, but it stunned Ji Haoyu.
Xiao Ai?
Erzhong?
If he had only heard Xiao Ai’s name in the beginning, he would not have thought too much about it. However, now that there was another keyword, Erzhong, Ji Haoyu had to overthink.
When he thought of the girl’s angry look, Ji Haoyu couldn’t help but smile.
He looked at his sister and asked, “Do you know what this Xiao Ai’s surname is?”
“Her surname is Jian!” Ji Haoxue said casually.
Brother Yu’s surname was Jian, so his sister’s surname must be Jian too!
Jian Ai. Ji Haoxue blinked her beautiful eyes. “Jian Ai’s name is so nice.”
It was as pleasant as Brother Yu’s name.
When Ji Haoyu heard Jian Ai’s name, he revealed an ambiguous expression. Emotions surged in his eyes, but he quickly suppressed them.
He nodded without changing his expression.
Ji Haoxue seemed to have noticed something as well. She immediately frowned slightly. “Brother, do you know this person?”
“No!” Ji Haoyu denied it.
“Oh.”
Ji Haoxue pursed her lips. Perhaps she was overthinking.
“If you want to go to Erzhong, go to Erzhong. I’ll arrange it for you then!” Ji Haoyu said.
As soon as he finished speaking, the phone in his pocket suddenly rang.
Taking it out and looking at it, Ji Haoyu’s expression froze slightly. He waved his phone at Ji Haoxue. “Brother have to take this call first.”
Ji Haoyu stood up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window before pressing the call button.
The moment the call went through, the aura around Ji Haoyu suddenly changed. The brother who was talking and doting with his sister just now instantly disappeared, and it was replaced with coldness and murderous intent.
As he listened to the person on the phone speak, Ji Haoyu’s handsome face was as cold as ice. His deep eyes were as cold as a demon, as if locking two roaring beasts and emitting a soul-stirring cold light.
After a long time, he slowly said, “Finish them before they strike!”
The person on the other end of the phone seemed to have said something.
Ji Haoyu paused for a moment and said coldly, “It’s not time yet.”
The call ended. When he turned around, Ji Haoyu’s expression had already returned to normal.
“Haoxue, when do you plan to return to Grandpa’s?” Ji Haoyu returned to the sofa and asked Ji Haoxue.
Ji Haoxue raised her fringe and leaned forward. “Can you still tell?”
“I can’t tell anymore,” Ji Haoyu said.
“Then I’ll go back tomorrow. Otherwise, I won’t be able to bear it if Grandpa calls three times a day,” Ji Haoxue said.
“I have to go out later. Why don’t you go back to Grandpa’s with Uncle Tao? Otherwise, you’ll be at home alone.”
When Ji Haoxue heard this, she couldn’t help but show a disappointed expression. “Ah? Didn’t you come back to accompany me?”
Seeing this, Ji Haoyu shook the phone in his hand and said apologetically, “Something cropped up.”
“Alright then!”
