Ji Heng was a person who didn't talk much, and what he said today was several times the usual amount.

After speaking without stopping, he turned around and left.

"etc."

Ji Ci stopped him suddenly.

Ji Heng stopped and looked back.

"You are not curious about when and how did Yun Shu and I met?"

"Do you want me to be curious, or do you want me not to be curious?" Ji Heng still had no expression on his face, and even when he asked this, his tone did not fluctuate much.

After a pause, Ji Ci said, "I don't care what you think. I just want to remind you not to investigate my affairs privately. By the way, I remind you other people in the Ji family that I don't like others to investigate me."

"You can rest assured that I won't do things so improperly. As for my parents, I will remind them."

It was Ji Heng who drove, and their car left before Ji Ci.

Ji Ci didn't follow them down the mountain, deliberately drove the car a little slower, and couldn't see their car halfway through the mountain.

He pressed his lower lip lightly and went straight to the supermarket.

Ji's old house.

Qi Yue, who hung up, frowned while looking at the phone.

"What's the matter?" Xia Yunshu asked.

"I feel something is wrong with Ji Ci."

Xia Yunshu stopped and asked, "How do you say?"

Among them, the person He Ji Ci is most familiar with and who understands Ji Ci is Qi Yue, so Qi Yue said that there is something wrong with Ji Ci, and it is hard for Xia Yunshu not to care.

Qi Yue shook his head: "I can't tell."

Ji Ci was really happy to learn that they were going to accompany him to eat New Year's Eve dinner, but she always felt that Ji Ci's reaction was still a little flat.

"Sister Shu, I'll go and tell my eldest mother, let her advance the time of the New Year's Eve dinner a little bit earlier, and we will go there earlier."

"good."

Qi Yue obviously lost the mood to continue walking around the yard, and the two went back to the main hall.

When they came back, Qi Jing was playing chess with the old man, Yao Manman was in the kitchen, and Qi Yuheng was helping.

Most of the servants in the old house returned home, but only Zhang Ma and an older servant remained. There were not enough staff to make the New Year's Eve dinner. Yao Manman and Qi Yuheng went to help.

"Why did you come back so soon? Don't you stop shopping?" Yao Manman just came out of the kitchen.

"It's a bit cold, so I'm back."

Qi Yue said, smiling and asked: "Auntie, can I bring the New Year's Eve dinner earlier?"

"Are you going to accompany Aci to dinner again?" Yao Manman chuckled lightly.

"Relax, knowing that you have to accompany Aci to dinner every New Year, our family's New Year's Eve dinner will be earlier. You said that Aci is also true, why would he not come to let him come to the house to celebrate the New Year together."

This is not Ji Ci's hypocrisy. The Qi family and the Ji family have made a good relationship. He does not return to the Ji family but comes to the Qi family to celebrate the New Year. Xu will affect the relationship between the two families.

Ji Ci has his own concerns.

Qi Yue didn't say much, just smiled and said, "Thank you, auntie, let me help too."

She asked for help, but Yao Manman was very surprised.

Since Qi Yue returned to Qi's house, let alone take the initiative to help cook the New Year's Eve dinner, she usually stayed in her yard on the New Year's Day and didn't go out. She had prepared the meal and asked Madam Zhang to call her. Since Qi Yue came back, the atmosphere of the Qi family's New Year's Eve dinner has always been very solemn.

On the days of family reunion, Qi Yue will be more likely to think of her unexpected parents, and her emotions must be affected. Then other people will be affected because of her influence, especially the old man.

"Then, then you come to help me fight." It is rare to see Qi Yue willing to participate in these things at home, Yao Manman is too happy to be too late, how can he refuse.

"I……"

As soon as Xia Yunshu was about to say that she would also help, Qi Yue interrupted her first: "Sister Shu, you can go to my brother. There are too many people in the kitchen to turn around."
