The Crippled Boss Loves Me Chapter 81 - We're All Going

Chapter 81 We’re All Going

Shen Hanxing chuckled. “I’m really not interested in these things. If I had the time, I might as well go home and visit Grandma.”

She did not like the hypocrisy of the upper-cla.s.s society. The so-called rich wives’ gatherings were merely about them speaking to each other in a roundabout way. It was simply a waste of time.

“I’ll go back with you,” Ji Yan put down the newspaper. Without batting an eyelid, he said, “We’ve been married for so long and we still haven’t visited Grandma. It’s too disrespectful.”

His tone was normal as though he was saying something very natural. However, Shen Hanxing suddenly felt a little awkward. She was clearly a married woman now, but why did she still feel nervous? As though she was bringing her boyfriend home to meet her parents?

What was she nervous about! Ji Yan was the one who should be nervous!

“Then I’ll let Grandma know in advance,” Shen Hanxing smiled and said, “In case she’s not prepared and neglects the honored guest.”

Ji Yan’s eyes were filled with a smile. He pulled Shen Hanxing’s hand and planted a gentle kiss on her palm. “I’m not an honored guest. I’m going home with my wife.”

He was extremely intelligent, to begin with. When he wanted to please someone, every word coming from him could melt one’s heart.

The words “going home” not only meant that Ji Yan was willing to treat her grandmother as his family, but it also meant that he cherished Shen Hanxing.

Shen Hanxing’s ears turned red. She met his gaze and smiled, “Yes, going home.”

“I’ll go too, I’ll go too!” Ji Qian overheard the last bit of their conversation and ran over excitedly. “I also want to go home with you to visit Grandma, Sister-in-law!”

“Shut up, you id*ot!” Ji Zhou could not bear to look at her directly. He dragged Ji Qian over and held down Ji Yang and the others who were restless. Haven’t they witnessed enough lovey-dovey moments at home? And now, they wanted to go to Grandma’s house too?!

Shen Hanxing could not help but laugh. “Okay, then we’ll all go.”

It was great. Her life now was as beautiful as a dream. She had more relatives, and she could protect the people she wanted to protect. Of course, in the end, they did not manage to go to Grandma’s house. The troublesome Ji Mei had brought Cheng Liu and arrived unannounced. Seeing that they could not go to Grandma’s house, the brothers and sisters of the Ji family were disappointed. Even Ji Yan’s face darkened.

“Hanxing,” Ji Mei did not notice that there was something off with the Ji family’s expressions. She gave Shen Hanxing a look and smiled. “Shall we have a private chat? Let Xiao Liu, Qian Qian, and the others go out to play and bond with each other.”

Ji Qian did not entertain Ji Mei. She bluntly refused, “I do not want to bond with her.”

Ji Qian’s likes and dislikes were shown on her face. Cheng Liu clenched her fists and lowered her head as her tears swelled up. Usually, when she put on this pitiful and aggrieved look, she would receive a huge wave of sympathy. Unfortunately, n.o.body here bought the act. No one pitied her. She continued putting on the pitiful act but the Ji family didn’t even give her a second glance. Cheng Liu became more and more embarra.s.sed. She gritted her teeth and made up her mind.

Ji Qian turned around to go upstairs. “I’m going back to sleep.” After she left, Ji Yang and the others also left. The living room, which had been bustling with activity, was now empty and filled with awkward silence instead. “Sister-in-law…” Ji Ning, who was slower by half a beat, softly tugged the hem of Shen Hanxing’s blouse. Ji Ning asked softly, “Can I go up and practice the violin?” The little girl was still young, and it was the first time she had shown such animosity to others. Feeling a little guilty, a hint of remorse could be heard when she spoke. When Cheng Liu saw this, she thickened her face and stopped Ji Ning. Cheng Liu asked, “Xiao Ning, are you going to practice the violin? Can I come with you?”

“Do you play the violin too?” Ji Ning was surprised and looked at her innocently. “Then let’s go to the music room. I don’t like others to touch the violin in my room.”

Cheng Liu suddenly froze, and the smile on her face slowly faded. For a moment, she did not know whether this cousin of hers, who always hid in the corner with her head lowered, was telling the truth or was looking down on her.

Who would really want to practice the violin with her? As a socialite, Cheng Liu had learned how to play all kinds of musical instruments. However, she was always afraid of hards.h.i.+p since she was a child. She lacked the motivation and perseverance when she studied these musical instruments. Thus, she was not good at playing the violin. If she were to play the violin in front of Maestro Lin Ran’s student, wouldn’t she be making a fool of herself?

Bearing this thought, Cheng Liu smiled sarcastically. She said, “No, I don’t want to practice the violin, I just want to listen to you play the violin. Maestro Lin Ran’s student should have outstanding violin playing skills, right?”

No one disliked compliments. Even if she hated Cheng Liu, Ji Ning’s ears were still red when she received praises from her.
