Bai Yiyan accompanied Ji Yueze to the Ji Family early in the morning to eat breakfast.
When the old woman and the old man heard that they were coming over, they were overjoyed, but also had a strange expression on their faces.
This grandson had been missing all year round, and he rarely came back for lunch or di
er. How could he have come back for breakfast so early in the morning?
Something must have happened again.
This was a good sign. At the very least, he would go home to discuss things with the two elders, unlike what he had decided in the past. The two elders needed to hear from their eldest grandson before they could truly be worried. Bai Yiyan was a little shy, because the reason she came to Ji Family today was to discuss a great matter.
"Grandpa, grandma!" Ji Yueze and Bai Yiyan walked into the restaurant and greeted the two elders. The old lady's gentle concern, "Xiao Ze, it can't be that you came here so early to accompany your grandparents for breakfast, right?"
"No, I'm here to discuss the engagement between her and me!" Ji Yueze's shocking words directly shocked the two elders. Their expressions changed for a moment.
"You're getting engaged?" This news came too suddenly, and the two elders were completely unprepared. They had thought that they would need at least a year or so to get to know each other before they could enter the marriage hall, but they did not expect that they would be caught off guard so quickly.
The old man also frowned, he suddenly waved at Ji Yueze: "Xiao Ze, push grandpa out to the garden for a walk, it's been a long time since we last talked."
Ji Yueze was stu
ed. Ever since he was young, the person he feared the most was his strict grandfather. He had been scolded a lot when he was young.
"Alright!" Ji Yueze nodded and walked over, pushing Old Master Ji's wheelchair, towards the small path in the garden.
When Bai Yiyan saw Ji Yueze leave, leaving her alone to face the old lady, she started to get nervous.
"Xiao Yan, have you mentioned the engagement ceremony to your family?" As expected, the old lady couldn't help asking her.
Bai Yiyan was a little embarrassed and smiled. "Not yet, because this decision is too hasty. We will first discuss this matter with you two elders."
"Oh!" The old lady frowned. She suddenly felt that these youngsters were truly unreliable when doing things. They hadn't even said anything to their parents when they were about to get engaged. This was too disrespectful.
"Did you call your parents about it? What did they say?" the old lady continued.
She thought that if her mother knew about this, she would definitely give her 100% support and consent. Last time, she called her and told her to find a way to make Ji Yueze fall for her.
"My mom shouldn't have any objections, Grandma, don't worry!" Bai Yiyan said softly.
"How about this? Invite your parents over for lunch at noon and have a formal meeting. The parents of both parties can sit down to have a nice talk about the marriage." the old lady suggested suddenly, her expression serious.
When Bai Yiyan heard this, she became even more nervous.
Thinking of her aunt's mistake, Bai Yiyan started to panic. Her mother and aunt were seventy percent the same. If her mother were to come, would the old lady recognize her relationship with her aunt?
Thinking of this, Bai Yiyan felt as if she was sitting on a needle blanket, unable to calm down for even a moment.
She answered vaguely, but her heart began to beat like a drum.
At this moment, on the garden path outside the door, Ji Yueze was pushing his grandpa's wheelchair as he slowly walked forward.
It was early in the morning, and the snow on the road had already been swept clean. Next to him was a vast expanse of white snow, as well as a patch of green. This made him feel relaxed and at ease.
"Xiao Ze, tell grandpa the truth. Do you really like that girl?" The old man asked.
Ji Yueze nodded: "I like it!"
"How much do you like it?" The old man continued to ask.
Ji Yueze couldn't help but laugh: "Grandpa, I've already decided to get engaged to her, so of course I like it."
"You have always been impulsive when doing things, unlike your big brother who is calm. I hope you will take your marriage seriously, and do not take it as a joke!" The old man sternly reminded him.
Ji Yueze listened attentively, "Grandfather, don't worry. Since I've chosen her, I will definitely treat her well!"
"Have you seen her family? What kind of people are her family? The old man asked with concern.
Ji Yueze's expression froze as he suddenly thought of Bai Yiyan's shameless aunt. He suddenly couldn't answer her at all.
"Grandfather, this is my marriage with her, it shouldn't have anything to do with her family, right?" Ji Yueze said lightly.
"Why didn't you close it? "Have you ever thought clearly that love is between the two of you, but marriage is between two families? Have you ever thought that if the other party's family members were snobbish people, she would come and trouble you about money?" The old tutor immediately creased his brow. He suddenly felt that he'd really been a bit preoccupied with the matter of their engagement.
"Grandfather, I will discuss this matter properly with her family. I will go see them at noon!" Ji Yueze didn't want to anger his grandpa anymore at this moment. He also knew from his big brother that his grandpa's condition wasn't very stable.
"Alright, go and see the reaction of her family first. We'll discuss this matter properly!" The old tutor raised his hand for further consideration.
When Ji Yueze returned to the living room, he saw that Bai Yiyan was also sweating profusely due to her grandmother's embarrassment.
With so much sweat in the middle of winter, it was obvious how nervous he was.
The two of them ate their breakfast absent-mindedly before leaving.
Sitting in the car, both of them were silent.
"How about… "Let's not get engaged yet. You haven't told your grandparents about my aunt, have you?" Bai Yiyan also felt that she had let down her Ji Family. Even though it was her aunt's mistake, they were still relatives.
Ji Yueze stared at the road in front of him. He pursed his lips and was unable to guess Ji Yueze's thoughts.
"Does your grandparents know about my aunt and your father?" Bai Yiyan suddenly whispered.
Ji Yueze's tone became colder: "I don't know, I don't want them to know."
"Even if you hide it from them now, it doesn't mean that they won't know in the future." Bai Yiyan lowered her head, sadness and despair flashing across her beautiful face.
She actually wanted to marry Ji Yueze, but the mountain in front of them was a huge mountain. It wasn't something one could climb just by trying.
"Let's not talk about our engagement for the time being!" Ji Yueze seemed to have made a decision all of a sudden. Bai Yiyan trembled as an indescribable sadness overcame her. She bit her lower lip with all her might and resisted the urge to cry. She nodded. "Alright, let's not talk about it for now. What about the company?"
"I will act as the male lead in your script. This matter should be resolved!" Bai Yiyan was shocked when Ji Yueze suddenly opened his mouth.
