Chapter 1285 - 1285 Something Happened to Old Ji

1285 Something Happened to Old Ji
Ji Haoyu smiled and nodded. “Change slowly. There’s no hurry.”
After Jian Ai entered the room, she closed the door. Ji Haoyu looked around the room in his slippers.
This house was Yang Jie’s house. The neighborhood they were in was also an old neighborhood with no elevator. However, no one had lived in the house after the renovation. Jian Ai and Si Yue were the first to stay here for a long time, so the facilities and renovation in the house looked very new.
Because Ji Haoyu had been to Jian Ai’s home in South City, although it was also spotless, there was still a certain difference between a flat house and a storied house. Therefore, after comparing, Ji Haoyu felt this house was not bad. At least, it was many times better than the home in South City.
The kitchen was also complete with oil, salt, sauce, and vinegar. It looked vivacious. Seeing this, Ji Haoyu could not help but purse his lips in jealousy.!!
In the end, out of curiosity, Ji Haoyu gently pushed open the door of Si Yue’s room, but he did not enter. He only poked his head in to look.
Si Yue was not at home. The bedroom was dark, and only the lights in the living room shone in. One could vaguely see the simple decorations inside.
Other than the bed and closet, there was nothing else in Si Yue’s room. It was as cold as him.
The house was only so big. Ji Haoyu quickly finished looking around and returned to the sofa to sit obediently and wait for Jian Ai.
In the room, Jian Ai quickly found the clothes she wanted to wear.
Although she said that she was changing her clothes, she was just changing out of her school uniform. Although it was a Christmas party organized at the Ji family, Jian Ai did not want to wear a gown and high heels like the Langxing Gala back then. It was too uncomfortable.
Therefore, she casually found two new clothes she had bought and had not worn before. After quickly changing into them, she let down her ponytail.
As the saying went, hairstyles determined novelty. She let her hair down. People should be able to ignore the clothes she wore.
However…
“You’re wearing this?”
When Jian Ai came out of the room, this was the first thing Ji Haoyu said.
Obviously, her hair did not serve as a diversion.
Jian Ai nodded. “I just bought this. Can’t I?”
A smile filled Ji Haoyu’s eyes. Hearing this, he revealed a meaningful expression. “Alright, you can wear whatever you want.”
“Why are you still asking?!” Jian Ai glared at him.
Ji Haoyu said, “I thought you would dress up carefully. Aren’t all girls like this? The more eye-catching you dress on such an occasion, the better.”
Jian Ai couldn’t help but sneer. “You probably have some misunderstanding about us girls! At least I’m not the kind of girl who wants to show off anytime.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Jian Ai instinctively thought of Jian Yiyi.
“As long as you’re happy. Let’s go!” Ji Haoyu shrugged and said.
The Ji family’s mansion was located in the suburbs of Baiyun City. It was in the opposite direction from the North City District. It would take almost an hour to drive from Haicheng District.
As soon as she got into the car, Ji Haoyu said, “It’ll take a while. Lower your seat and sleep for a while.”
When Jian Ai heard this, she looked at Ji Haoyu. “Don’t you need me to talk to you? Aren’t you bored?”
“No need. As long as you’re beside me, even if you lie down and sleep, I’m satisfied,” Ji Haoyu said softly.
Jian Ai exhaled and said nothing. She lowered the seat and lay down.
The car drove all the way to the suburbs. Ji Haoyu’s driving skills were very adept. Sitting in his car was very stable and comfortable. With the music floating out of the car, Jian Ai’s body gradually felt sleepy.
Suddenly, an urgent phone ringtone sounded, making Jian Ai, who was about to fall asleep, open her eyes.
“It’s my call,” Ji Haoyu said apologetically. Then, he took the phone and looked at the caller ID.
It was the butler, Wu Yong.
The phone was still ringing, but there was an inexplicable sense of impatience and urgency.
For some reason, as if sensing something, a trace of nervousness rose in Ji Haoyu’s heart.
Pressing the answer button, Ji Haoyu slowed the car and said, “Grandpa Wu.”
Wu Yong said something on the phone that made Ji Haoyu step on the brakes. The tires of the Ferrari sports car suddenly rubbed against the ground, making an exceptionally ear-piercing sound.
Jian Ai’s sleepiness instantly dissipated. Noticing the sudden change in Ji Haoyu’s expression, Jian Ai quickly sat up and looked at him in confusion.
“What?” Ji Haoyu spoke again, and his voice could not help but tremble.
Before Jian Ai could observe further, Ji Haoyu said, “I’ll go back immediately!”
After hanging up, Ji Haoyu quickly started the car and stepped on the accelerator. The engine let out a deafening roar. Then, the car suddenly jumped out like an arrow leaving the bow.
Jian Ai quickly held the handle with her hand and turned to look at Ji Haoyu, but she realized that his entire body was tense. Veins were bulging at his temples, and he was emitting an obvious nervous aura.
Jian Ai had never seen Ji Haoyu like this. Usually, his expression would not change even if a mountain collapsed in front of him. She had never even seen him angry, let alone nervous.
Knowing that something was wrong, Jian Ai did not know if she should ask or care. However, looking at Ji Haoyu’s condition, her first reaction was worry.
She wanted to know what had happened. If possible, she might be able to help.
After hesitating for a moment, Jian Ai asked, “What happened?”
Ji Haoyu’s well-defined hands gripped the steering wheel tightly as he glared ahead. After a while, he seemed to have reacted to Jian Ai’s question and said, “Something happened to my grandfather!”
As soon as he spoke, Ji Haoyu’s voice became hoarse. It was a physical reaction that would only happen under extreme nervousness.
Something happened to Old Ji?
Jian Ai could not help but be shocked. The last time she saw Old Ji was when Ji Haoxue invited her to the Ji family as a guest. It was only half a year ago. At that time, Old Ji looked quite healthy…
Jian Ai didn’t ask what it was. Old Ji was already very old. To make Ji Haoyu so nervous, something must have happened to his body. Moreover, it was a sudden and urgent problem that made Ji Haoyu so nervous.
Jian Ai quickly took out her phone, found Xiao Zhen’s number, and dialed it. “Xiao Zhen, the Ji family’s mansion in the suburbs. Come quickly!”
Saying nothing, Jian Ai gave Xiao Zhen an order.
“Yes! Sect Master!” Xiao Zhen didn’t ask further. He would only obey Jian Ai’s orders!
Ji Haoyu turned to look at Jian Ai. Seeing this, Jian Ai explained, “A friend of mine is a powerful doctor. I think he can help!”
When Ji Haoyu heard this, his slightly pale lips moved before he let out a dry sound from his throat. “Thank you!”
Jian Ai’s heart suddenly tightened because she seemed to see a trace of grief in Ji Haoyu’s eyes. It was an exceptionally pessimistic expression.
“Don’t worry, the heavens will help Grandpa Ji. He’ll be fine!” Jian Ai subconsciously comforted him.
