Chapter 656 - 656: At the Thought of Her, He Would Be In a Good Mood (2)
He wondered who had provoked Young Master so early in the morning. Miss Fei Yi did not seem to have provoked Young Master. She was not an important person, so she would not make Young Master angry because of her.
Then who provoked Young Master??
Ji He racked his brains but could not figure it out.
Pei Jiao pretended not to know anything. She took the breakfast out of the bag and placed it on the small table. She said to Wei Yu, “You can eat now.” Wei Yu glanced sideways at her and said nothing. Pei Jiao smiled as sweetly as before. “Aren’t you eating?”
Wei Yu retracted his gaze and left, leaving Pei Jiao with a cold profile and a sentence. “I’m full.”
Pei Jiao:
After Wei Yu left, Ji He quickly turned to ask Pei Jiao, “l couldn’t figure out who provoked Young Master after thinking for a long time. Do you know who it was?”
Pei Jiao shook her head innocently. “l don’t know either.”
“Forget it.” Ji He admitted his bad luck. “Who asked me to follow the strange young master? I’ll leave first. Leave it here after you finish eating. I’ll come back to get the lunch box later.”
Pei Jiao nodded. “Okay.”
After Ji He left, Pei Jiao was alone in the huge house.
Pei Jiao looked in the direction of the door and smiled sarcastically.
Ever since Wei Yu left without breakfast, he had not appeared again for the entire afternoon. Pei Jiao did not run around. She stayed obediently in Wei Yu’s private lounge. She spent her time either watching television or gardening or rummaging through Wei Yu’s bookshelf.
The most miserable person in the afternoon was Ji He. He kept facing the young master’s cold face. Every second felt like torture, especially when there was a call from the old residence. If the young master did not pick up, Ji He would be scolded.
Ji He felt that he was being put in a spot.
“Dr. Ji.” Ji He held his cell phone and begged Ji Qingzhou. “Why don’t you help me persuade the Young Master on account of our surnames? I can’t hold on much longer.”
Ji Qingzhou put down the engineering design in his hand and turned to look at
Ji He. “Are you begging me?”
Ji He nodded. “l can even kneel.”
“Forget it.” Ji Qingzhou couldn’t help but laugh. “Because kneeling is useless.
You begged the wrong person. I’m not that familiar with M/ei Yu.”
“If you’re not even familiar with Young Master, I’m afraid no one in this base is.” Ji He looked pitiful. “Dr. Ji, can you bear to see me suffer like this?”
“He that hides can find. I clearly saw that Wei Yu was in a good mood when he brought that young lady to the canteen in the morning. After that, I don’t know where he brought the young lady. When he came back, he had a cold expression as if everyone owed him. I don’t even know what happened. How can I resolve it?”
Ji Qingzhou’s words were filled with logic, so Ji He could not refute.
In the end, Ji He sighed in resignation. “Let me bear the storm from Matriarch alone.’
Ji Qingzhou laughed out loud. He hooked his finger at Ji He, who leaned over. “Dr. Ji, are you willing to help me convince Young Master?”
“How can my persuasion be useful?” Ji Qingzhou knew this well, so he thought of a lousy move. “Listen to me. Later, when you’re like this…”
Two minutes later, Ji He appeared beside Wei Yu. At first, Ji He did not say anything and waited silently at the side. After a while, his phone rang. Ji He picked it up in front of Wei Yu. “Matriarch.”
Wei Yu was checking the design parameters from yesterday. He was very busy, so busy that he had no time to deal with anyone. However, it was difficult for him to ignore Ji He when he was so close to him.
Seeing that Young Master did not react, Ji He followed Ji Qingzhou’s instructions and said to Matriarch Wei, “Matriarch, Young Master is indeed very busy now, but there’s someone who can take your call in Young Master’s place. Wait for me for a few minutes. I’ll give her the phone.”
After saying that to the person on the other end of the line, Ji He immediately said to Wei Yu, ‘Young Master, I’ll get Miss Fei Yi to answer Matriarch’s call.
What do you think?”
Wei Yu’s expression turned cold.
Ji He pretended not to see Wei Yu’s expression and continued, “In any case, you’re too busy to leave now, and Miss Fei Yi is very bored. It’s a good opportunity to chat with the Matriarch. That way, she won’t look for you.”
Although it was a lousy move, Ji He felt that this lousy move seemed to be useful. No matter what he said just now, Young Master would ignore it. When he mentioned Miss Fei Yi just now, Young Master immediately reacted.
Ji He knew that it was working and turned to leave. “Young Master, I’ll go find Miss Fei Yi first.’
“Stop right there!” Wei Yu l s cold voice sounded. Ji He was shocked and immediately stood rooted to the ground. Wei Yu threw aside his work for the time being and stood up to walk over. He took the cell phone from Ji He and glanced at him before answering the call. “Get lost.”
Ji He did not expect Dr. Ji t s lousy move to be so effective. Young Master really could not withstand any provocation. He quickly nodded. “Alright, I’ll get lost now.” With that, he immediately disappeared from Wei Yu’s sight.
Wei Yu held the phone and sat back in his seat. Seeing that the cell phone page was still on, he raised the phone to his ear and called softly, “Grandma.”
The old lady’s kind voice came from the phone. “Why haven’t you answered my call today?”
Wei Yu said her usual excuse. “I’m busy.”
“So busy that you don’t even have time to answer my call?” The old lady’s muttering tone was slightly dissatisfied as she complained, “l only stayed for half a day the last time I came back. I haven’t been back for almost a month.”
Wei Yu leaned back. “l told you before that the base has lost something very important. The base is currently in full lockdown. I can’t come back for the time being.”
The old lady asked, “How long will I have to wait?”
Wei Yu did not say anything. Fei Yi’s appearance suddenly appeared in his mind and he could not help but guess what she was doing at this moment. As he guessed, his lips curled up unconsciously.
The old lady didn’t hear anything. “Busy with something again?” she asked in a raised voice.
“I’m busy.” Wei Yu came back to his senses and said softly, “l might be back in another half a month.’
The old lady said, “You mean what you say?”
Wei Yu said, “I’ll try my best.”
The old lady said, “Forget it. You always say to try your best.” After a pause, the old lady remembered what Ji He had told her just now and asked, “That kid Ji He said something about Miss Fei Yi. Which girl is this?” Wei Yu did not avoid the question. “A girl I met by chance.”
The old lady said, “Do you like her?”
Wei Yu was about to deny it when the old lady suddenly said, “You have to remember that you’re still engaged. That’s the daughter of the Pei family.
Don’t take it lightly.”
Wei Yu said nothing.
Knowing that Wei Yu was still on the phone, the old lady had no choice but to mention, “You knew about the engagement with the daughter of the Pei family long ago. The last time you came back, I quite hoped that you could meet that daughter of the Pei family. Unfortunately, you left in such a hurry. You can’t delay it anymore when you come back this time.”
“Yu, are you still listening to Grandma?”
The old lady called twice, but there was no response. She thought the line had gone dead.
“I’m listening, Grandma,” Wei Yu said.
The old lady only felt at ease when she heard the voice. She wanted to say something else, but Wei Yu did not hide it anymore. He took the opportunity to tell the old lady the truth.
“Grandma, I’ve already broken off the engagement with the daughter of the
Pei family. I won’t be with her..”
