Ch.84 In Bad Taste (1)

After dinner that night.

Grandpa Ji pulled Ji Xuan over and asked, “Are you planning to remarry Xiao Yu?”

Ji Xuan frowned and said, “No, I’ll repay her for whatever I still owe her.”

Grandpa Ji sighed and said softly, “Xiao Yu is a good person, but if you don’t like her, I can introduce her to someone else.”

Ji Xuan was taken aback, he felt slightly slumped about this, and said, “You’ll have to think for the two kids!”

Grandpa Ji glared at him and said, “Xiao Yu is only 25! If it was someone else of her age, she would only have graduated from university for only two years! How can you be so cruel to let her grow old all alone in the future!” Grandpa Ji wanted to beat him with his crutch.

Ji Xuan jumped away, and Grandpa Ji immediately shouted: “Okay! You used to be a soldier, so you’re using your skills against your grandfather now, right?”

Ji Xuan could only say coldly: “I don’t mind if we fight in private, but can we not fight in front of everyone, it’s very embarrassing!”

Grandpa Ji hit him again and said, “I’m embarrassing you? In front of outsiders, I never once ever humiliated you. I even praised you in front of everyone! Is Xiao Yu an outsider? She’s part of the family? She’s the mother of your children, how is she an outsider.”

Ji Xuan could only nod, and Grandpa Ji rolled his eyes again and said: “I’ll introduce her to someone good then, someone that’s better than you. You don’t know how to spot a gem even when you see one……”

Ji Xuan interrupted,“I have bad taste, grandpa.”

Grandpa Ji choked, raised his crutch and said, “How would I not know about that? I don’t need you to remind me, you rascal.”

“Just go on, go on.” Ji Xuan raised his hand and surrendered. He finally understood that he shouldn’t talk logically with his grandpa. If he talked over him, he’d lose, if he couldn’t talk over him, he’d also lose too.

“You really don’t want to remarry Xiao Yu?” Grandpa Ji said after realising that Ji Xuan was expressionless, “Let me make it clear to you, a beautiful woman like Xiao Yu……”

“Grandpa, she has a baby face, and looks just slightly more youthful.” Ji Xuan felt that Grandpa Ji’s words weren’t at all true.

Grandpa Ji choked and raised his crutch to fight him. Ji Xuan raised his hands again and surrendered. Grandpa Ji said angrily: “I don’t want to talk to you anymore, you’ll regret your choice. You’ll fall for that woman named Yi, her looks aren’t too shabby, but it’s a pity that all she’s interested in is your money.”

Ji Xuan touched his chin and said, “I think she still did slightly fall for my personality.”

“Tsk~” Grandpa Ji covered his cheek with his hand and said as he walked: “I can’t even be bothered to hit you anymore.”

Ji Xuan: “……”

Upon watching Grandpa Ji leave, Ji Xuan turned around and saw that Xiao Yu was hiding in the corner of the corridor, she looked at him with a faint gaze.

Ji Xuan: “……”

Xiao Yu blinked and then unfolded the wheelchair: “I wasn’t eavesdropping! I just put the two kids to sleep. When I got here, I found that you two were talking, I didn’t dare to abruptly walk out.”

“It’s okay.” Ji Xuan said, and then turned to leave.

Xiao Yu hurried up and said, “Eh, do you know that that sly fox, Yi likes you?”

“Yes.”

“Wow! I thought you were just really dense!” Xiao Yu said.

Ji Xuan glanced at her, she immediately smiled and said, “Oh, don’t be angry! Didn’t I think this way because you never reacted to anything that happened?”

Ji Xuan said, “How should I have responded then?”

Xiao Yu thought for a while, but before she could figure it out, Ji Xuan said: “When a woman likes a man, in most cases, the man would know. If he doesn’t give any response, it means that he’s just silently rejecting you. I hardly talk to her. In fact, I do think I’m already being very clear with my intention.”

Xiao Yu curled her lips: “Why don’t you tell her directly?”

Ji Xuan was speechless: “She never told me that she likes me? What should I tell her?”

Xiao Yu: “Thinking about it this way, it makes sense! Hahahahaha……”

So, why is she laughing?

“By the way, Xiaoyu’s birthday is coming soon, did you ask for a leave for that day?”
