“This child.., you never focus on anything, and you never have any interest in the company. It's okay, I'm not forcing you. Since you got married, you have always been emotional. I know you feel unhappy, but you can't play around like this!
“Dad, please trust me. Both of these companies have significant opportunities to make a profit in the next few years.”
Ji Hongwen was just about to say more but stopped in surprise.
This daughter was always so stubborn. Ever since his mother died and he remarried, he was even more disrespectful to her as a father. Rarely would they not end up fighting every time he called.
However, he had previously said, "Dad, please believe me."
Such a sincere and courteous attitude was very different from the way Ji Nuan usually spoke …
Ji Hongwen was stunned for a moment, and his tone remained unfriendly. “Come back to Ji's house now. I'll send the driver to pick you up!"
“No need to pick me up. I'll drive myself." Ji Nuan's cold was healed. Originally, she planned to visit Xia Tian after changing into clothes. He slowly said, “Xia Tian was involved in a car accident a few weeks ago. Legs cracked. I'll stop by the hospital to visit him first.”
"good. Carefully be careful while driving and do not let your guard down.” Although Ji Hongwen's tone of voice sounded as cold as before, his tone warmed slightly.
Ji Nuan smiled. “I'll be back before six. Father, don't forget to have Aunt Qin prepare food for me.”
“…”
Ji Hongwen was completely unaccustomed to facing such a gentle princess. After a while, he still could not make a sound and directly hung up the phone.
——
It was past six o'clock the night when Ji Nuan reached the Ji family home.
The car drove into the front yard of the Ji family's old residence. Ji Mengran was on the second floor balcony playing with her phone. When he saw Ji Nuan, he immediately put down his phone, glancing at her in surprise.
“Female sister? Why are you back?”
Ji Nuan did not seem to notice him. After parking the car, he went in.
Aunt Qin had already come out to greet him. “First Miss, you're finally back. It's been months since I last saw you!”
"Aunt Qin, do you miss me?" Ji Nuan smiled as she reached out to hold Aunt Qin's elbow.
“Of course I miss you, how not? Mr. Ji said that you will be back for dinner tonight, so I made your favorite boiled ribs and steamed lotus root!” Aunt Qin happily patted her hands. "Since you've come home, do you want to stay home for a few days?"
Ji Nuan had yet to reply when she saw her stepmother, Shen Heru, approaching as she stepped through the door.
Seeing that he had actually returned home, Shen Heru looked brightly smiling as he entered—pushed Aunt Qin aside—and pulled Ji Nuan's hand while saying, “Nuan Nuan, , if you still don't return, your father will have rushed to the Mo family. ”
Ji Nuan glanced at him while coldly and calmly pulling his hand back. He turned to ask Aunt Qin, who had been pushed aside, "Where is my father?"
Aunt Qin hurriedly replied, "Master. Ji's been feeling bad in the last few days. Earlier he said that he would return to his room to take medicine before getting off.”
Some medicine?
Ji Nuan's expression did not change, but she accelerated her steps towards the stairs.
“Nuan Nuan, don't argue with your father once you get back, and why are you walking so fast.” Shen Heru nagged from below looked so natural, while turning to stare intently at Aunt Qin.
Ji Nuan quickly arrived outside the door of Ji Hongwen's room. Just as he was about to knock, he heard the sound of a glass of water being placed on the table and pushed the door open forcefully.
A loud "peng" came from inside the room
Ji Hongwen was holding two white pills as he turned to stare at Ji Nuan who suddenly barged in. He immediately frowned sadly. "How old are you? Do you know how to behave? Even when opening the door, you have to make so much noise!”
"Dad!" Ji Nuan walked over, stopping her from putting the pill in her mouth. "What medicine is this?"
Ji Nuan took the pill in her hand and took the small medicine bottle on the table, examined it.
All the words in it are in English. That said, it contains a supplement suitable for middle-aged people to strengthen their bodies.
“This is the medicine that Aunt Shen had specially brought home from overseas when she went abroad some time ago. This is a complete set of body supplements. There are pills and tablets, ” replied Ji Hongwen modestly, looking at him sadly. “Don't you say you'll be back before six? It's almost 6:30 at night! ”
“Now it is rush hour, there is a traffic jam, ”Ji Nuan explained as he continued to hold the pill bottle tightly.
In his previous life, he felt that his father had died very strangely.
Back then, because Ji Nuan was on bad terms with her family, she couldn't stay by her father's side in her final moments. Ji Nuan only managed to see him one last time before he died in the hospital and did not even have a chance to understand the cause of his death from the doctor. However, on his death certificate, it was written that the cause of his death was shortness of breath and sudden cardiac arrest.
In his mind his father's health was always very good. He was only fifty years old when he died. How could his health deteriorate suddenly in the span of a few years?
Even if the Ji family went bankrupt, causing a series of misfortunes, and stress should not affect him to the point where his heart stopped overnight, and caused his death.
Back then, Ji Nuan was not at home and therefore did not know clearly the situation. Previously Ji Nuan heard Aunt Qin say that her father was taking medicine in the room, Ji Nuan suddenly recalled this.
His father was not sick, why did he have to take medicine all of a sudden?
Shen Heru said that this was a supplement, was it true?
Ji Nuan did not forget that the Shen Heru family had some members who studied medicine and learned to produce it. It's definitely not simple.
“Why are you still holding my medicine? Quickly put!" Ji Hongwen stood up, pouting at Ji Nuan, "Also, the matter about those two companies, you better explain it well today!"
Ji Nuan raised her eyes, changed the subject and spoke seriously, “Daddy, can you not take this medicine for a few days? I'll let people from the state Food and Drug Administration check what's inside.”
Ji Hongwen frowned and angrily spat, “Omong is empty! What do you want to check! I have been married to Aunt Shen for several decades. And now you even suspect the medicine he bought? No wonder even though you called her Aunt Shen, Meng Ran and her like a pair of mothers and children, whereas you treated her like an enemy, never showed her the good side!”
The room door was suddenly pushed open again. Ji Mengran gently opened the door, stuck her head inside and asked with a face that looked obedient, “I just passed by and heard voices from the room. Father, Brother, you just came back, and you two fought again? ”
"It's none of your business, go!" Ji Hongwen glared at the door.
Ji Mengran let out an "Oh" sound and then gently closed the door again.
Although she was scolded by her father, Ji Mengran was not affected at all and was instead pleased with the disaster as she left.
Ji Nuan had just returned for a while, and she had already argued with their father. There will be a good show to watch tonight!
