Behind him, there was a middle-aged man wearing glasses, dressed formally, carrying a briefcase in his hand.
The two of them went downstairs one after the other.
Why was the old man still at home at this time today?
Ji Anning looked puzzledly at Ji Zhengdao, who was coming downstairs, and then at the middle-aged man following him, a stranger. She inexplicably felt the atmosphere was deep and solemn.
"Uncle Ji."
Qi Helian slightly nodded to Ji Zhengdao, greeting him.
The old gentleman nodded in acknowledgment and then turned his gaze to Ji Anning, asking with confusion, "Anning, didn't your uncle say he had secured a spot for you in a school field trip and that you would be back in a few days?"
Oh!
Ji Anning was startled, then realized it might be Ji Chicheng's excuse to have her stay at his place for a few days.
Thinking this, she opened her mouth to explain to Ji Zhengdao.
