Chapter 939: A Name No One Dared to Mention
Ji Haoxue pulled open the curtains. The warm sunlight shone in and instantly lit up the room.
Ji Haoyuâs beautiful peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly. When he saw the sunlight, he felt better.
âAre you okay?â
Seeing that her brother did not seem to feel well, Ji Haoxue could not help but walk closer to size up Ji Haoyu. She frowned and asked, âHow much did you drink? Itâs already one in the afternoon, but youâre still not up!â
âYou drank with Brother Jiahao?â
âTsk.â Hearing Qiu Jiahaoâs name, Ji Haoyu snorted as if he had heard something dirty. Then, he said, âWould I get drunk with him?â
Ji Haoxue was stunned. âThen who did you drink with? Donât tell me you drank so much alone?â
âWith your Sister Xiao Ai, of course.â Ji Haoyu smiled smugly.
When Ji Haoxue heard this, she couldnât help but reveal a look of understanding. âSister Xiao Ai went on a date with you after coming back from her trip. No wonder you were so smug.â
In Ji Haoxueâs heart, she had already treated her brother and Sister Xiao Ai as a passionate couple.
The terrifying thing was that Ji Haoyu enjoyed the illusory world his sister had created for him. He immediately said with satisfaction, âYes, your Sister Xiao Ai was also thrilled and drank a lot.â
Ji Haoxue rolled her eyes at him. She returned to the sofa and sat down. âGrandpa asked you to go back for the family banquet today. He has something important to say.â
When Ji Haoyu heard this, he paused and asked, âDid Grandpa say that?â
Ji Haoxue nodded and repeated, âHe said that you have to go back.â
Ji Haoyu raised his handsome eyebrows, showing that he understood.
âBrother.â Ji Haoxue suddenly looked at Ji Haoyu with a serious expression and said, âIs Grandpa going to hand the Ji Group to you?â
When Ji Haoyu heard this, he couldnât help but smile and look up at his sister. âHow did you tell?â
Ji Haoxue pursed her lips. âIsnât that what everyone at home says? Moreover, Grandpa didnât go to the Ji Group for a while. Havenât you been helping him manage the corporation?â
Ji Haoyu nodded. âI feel it too. That might be the reason today.â
The old man had already thought of retiring two years ago, and Ji Haoyu had also come into contact with the Ji Groupâs affairs two years ago. After two years of polishing and training, the current Ji Haoyu had already become an heir who could independently support the number one financial group in Asia.
âBrother,â Ji Haoxue called out softly. Her gaze landed on Ji Haoyuâs face, but there was some hesitation in her eyes.
Seeing this, Ji Haoyu was slightly stunned. He could not help but ask with concern, âWhatâs wrong?â
Ji Haoxue pursed her lips and looked at Ji Haoyu before asking carefully, âHave you ever thought about looking for DadâŠâ
Ji Yansong was the eldest son of the Ji family and Ji Haoyu and Ji Haoxueâs biological father. He was the heir of the Ji Group that Old Master Ji liked the most.
However, Ji Yansong suddenly left home eight years ago and was never heard from again. Old Master Ji used all the connections and methods he could, but Ji Yansong seemed to have disappeared from the face of the earth. He could not find any traces of him.
Later, his name became taboo in the Ji family. No one dared to mention it again. Not in front of Old Master Ji, let alone Ji Haoyu!
