Chapter 639: Chapter 639: I Feel Relieved to Leave Xixi with You
Ning Xixi slid the door open, "Miaomiao! Stop talking nonsense!"
She carried the little loli down the stairs, stomping angrily, with Ji Yebai following behind. Hearing her over-explanatory response, "Umm... Ji Yebai and I didn’t do anything, we were just studying!"
Facing the Ji Family’s collective ’no need to explain, we understand everything’ gaze, Ning Xixi’s face flushed bright red!
Aww! Why does this feel like young love getting busted by the parents!
But the Ji Family has always been open-minded and even teased her kindly a few times.
Everyone was busy giving Ji Yebai gifts.
Ji Yebai thanked each person and casually opened one, imported handmade chocolates?
The gifting Uncle Ji said with a beaming smile, "Xixi should like this flavor."
Ji Yebai opened another; it was an adorable pink dress.
He didn’t have a thing for wearing female clothing - this dress was clearly for Ning Xixi.
He didn’t believe his luck and kept on opening, various kinds of girls’ bags, perfumes, snacks...
A certain Second Young Master muttered with resentment, "Today is my birthday..."
"Exactly, but we all think it’s better to give gifts to Xixi than to you! If Xixi’s happy, you’re happy too, right?" everyone joked.
Ji Yebai shook his head and sighed, resigning himself to the fact that as a man, he just had no status in the family, it seemed.
Humph, I’ll compensate with extra kisses on Ning Xixi, that should cover it!
Ning Xixi noticed Ji Yebai’s ’thirsty’ gaze and was utterly overwhelmed.
Why does it feel like I’m some succulent meat in his eyes...
The butler’s voice came from the doorway, "Mr. and Mrs. Song have arrived!"
Everyone, except Ji Grandfather who was the peer of Song Grandfather, stood up to greet them.
Song Grandfather and Song Grandmother were wearing matching traditional Chinese outfits today, looking affectionate and deeply in love with each other.
"Grandpa, Grandma," Ji Yebai greeted, holding Ning Xixi’s hand.
Song Grandmother smiled gently, "Xiaobai, happy birthday."
Song Grandfather grunted without looking at Ji Yebai, but after being pinched by Song Grandmother, he awkwardly said, "Happy birthday, here, I’ve prepared a gift for you, kid."
Recalling the oversized washboard that Song Grandfather had previously sent to his school, Ji Yebai felt a twinge in his knees.
He opened the gift apprehensively, thankfully, it was a custom men’s watch from some luxury brand.
"Thank you, Grandpa," Ji Yebai expressed his gratitude.
Song Grandfather patted his shoulder, speaking earnestly, "You’ve grown up, and I feel at ease entrusting Xixi to you."
The Ji Family members were all stunned!
The older the ginger, the spicier it is - Ji Grandfather was the first to react, "Old Song, no more words needed, from now on we’re all one family!"
Ji Mother’s eyes became teary - being a friend of Song Weiyang, she naturally knew how difficult it was for Song Grandfather to speak.
Now, with Song Grandfather’s approval of Ji Yebai, it was clear he was truly satisfied with him!
Ji Father wrapped his arms around his wife, "Don’t be sad, Weiyang is watching from heaven, and she’ll be happy to see this."
Ji Mother turned her sorrow into joy, "Hmm..."
Ning Xixi bit her lip, "Grandpa..."
"Dear treasure, you both have grown up, and we are old... so old..." Song Grandfather let out a long sigh, staring at Ji Yebai with eyes as wide as copper bells, "Don’t forget, behind Xixi stands the Song Family! If you even let her suffer the slightest grievance, I will take a gun, lead my soldiers, and snatch away my precious granddaughter! Did you hear me?!"
