âOf course.â Grandpa Ji glared at him. âIf any woman can give birth to your child, sheâll be a great contribution to our Ji family!â
Ji Shiting curled his lips and said, âOkay, I understand.â
Grandpa Ji didnât think too much about it. He pointed at the document in his hand and said, âTake a look. Our Ji family doesnât have many official backgrounds, which is a hidden danger. If we can join with the Jing family, it will be beneficial and harmless.â
Ji Shiting nodded calmly.
âSpeaking of which, howâs Ye Shengge doing recently?â Grandpa Ji suddenly said. âShe was our Ji familyâs daughter-in-law after all. She divorced you and didnât want anything. If she needs money, we canât be stingy.â
âYou care about her that much?â Ji Shiting was a bit surprised.
âI forced you to part with her because I was worried about your safety, but it doesnât mean I have anything against her.â Grandpa Ji snorted. âAs long as she doesnât hurt you, Iâll definitely care about her more than anyone else.â
Ji Shitingâs eyes dimmed and he said, âGrandpa, itâs getting late. Please rest. Iâll read this document carefully.â
Grandpa Ji nodded.
However, Ji Shiting immediately threw the document into the trash can after sending his grandpa away.
He thought for a bit and called Ye Shengge.
Ye Shengge was about to sleep when she received his call.
âShiting?â She sounded thrilled. âAre you home?â
âMm.â The man sat on the chair and relaxed his body. âDid you miss me?â
âItâs still bearable...â Ye Shengge blushed. She turned around and scratched the bedsheets.â Weâve only been separated for more than an hour. â
âBut I miss you.â The man muttered. âDo you know what it means to sleep alone?â
Ye Shengge felt sour.
âSorry, Shiting.â She sounded upset.
âThereâs no need to apologize,â Ji Shiting said. âIâm not blaming you.â
Ye Shengge suppressed her bitterness. âI wonât let you wait long.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âOkay.â The man chuckled. âGrandpa is here tonight. I might not be able to see you tomorrow morning.â
âItâs alright. I have work tomorrow morning.â Ye Shengge thought for a bit. âIâll wait for you to have lunch together.â
âMm.â Ji Shiting smiled. âGoodnight.â
âGoodnight.â Ye Shengge couldnât help turning around in bed after hanging up the phone.
It would have been better if he hadnât called her, but after the phone call, she couldnât stand the silence and emptiness after the manâs voice disappeared.
She really wanted to wake up in his arms.
...
The next day, Ye Shengge and Lin Qi left early.
She was going to the TV station to film a variety show with high viewership, which was also her first variety show, so she and Shang Tianyi valued it.
These days, because the crew of âMeeting Cupidâ announced Ye Shengge as the lead actress, there was another heated discussion online. This time, the netizens were confused about the ups and downs of her and Cheng Xinyueâs fate. They all felt that it was difficult to guess the thoughts of the âbig shotâ, and the discussion became more cautious, but the voices laughing at Ye Shengge disappeared.
