Chapter 622: Lightning and Jiu the God Are Also Here (3)
Over time, Ji Qingyao’s visits became increasingly rare.
Today marked her first return of the year.
The butler expressed his concern, “Miss Qingyao, you should really see a doctor. Miss Qingwei was also unwell recently. We can’t afford for anything to happen to you.”
“I’ve seen one. It’s nothing serious,” Ji Qingyao responded indifferently, showing little concern. “Where’s father?”
“The master is inside,” the butler quickly led the way, smiling. “The master has been waiting for you for a long time and hasn’t even eaten yet.”
“Qingyao,” Ji Longtai heard her voice and immediately came out. “How is training going? Are you tired? This weekend, we’re going to the Oracle’s offline fan meeting. We don’t need to meet the fans, mainly to connect with President
Ji.”
Ji Qingyao responded coolly, her expression indifferent.
“What kind of attitude is this?” Ji Longtai wanted to lose his temper but restrained himself. “Honestly ask yourself, have we really treated you so poorly? Have you forgotten the sage who decided your fate? You must stay in the Thousand Army Alliance for twenty years to avoid an early death.”
“Your grandfather even kneeled, and it took a lot of effort to get you into the Thousand Army Alliance. Do you think we don’t want you to stay at home? Your younger sister even envies you for being able to go out!”
Ji Qingyao frowned, “Understood. I’ll be staying outside; I’ll leave if there’s nothing else.”
Ji Longtai couldn’t stop her, not that he had the ability to do so.
He sighed deeply, “This child.”
“Don’t talk so much to her,” Lady Ji came from the kitchen, looking displeased.
“She doesn’t appreciate us at all. It’s better that Qingwei is thoughtful. It’s
better she doesn’t come back, to spare Qingwei the sadness.”
Ji Qingwei always said she envied Ji Qingyao for her strong physique, unlike her, who could only stay indoors.
Moreover, Ji Qingyao didn’t grow up close to Lady Ji, leading to a thin bond between mother and daughter.
Ji Longtai shook his head, “It’s tough; both are my children. How is Qingwei these days?”
“Much better,” the lady of the house smiled. “Next week is the seven schools joint examination, and a teacher from Great Xia University Middle School will come over to proctor Qingwei specifically.”
The seven schools joint examination was conducted by Great Xia University Middle School, Northern State No.l Middle School, and five other top-ranking middle schools in the Great Xia Empire. “Good!” Ji Longtai also smiled. “I’m going to check on the esports team.” He put on his coat and left, sighing repeatedly.
It was a pity, the sage who had determined the fates of Ji Qingyao and Ji Qingwei also said he was destined to have no sons.
In esports, it was true that girls lagged far behind boys.
The Ji family’s esports team was managed by Ji Longtai’s nephew, Ji Boyan, who had recruited many professional players, fully preparing for the upcoming OPL.
Seeing Ji Longtai himself visiting, Ji Boyan showed respect, “Uncle, we are currently training.”
“Good,” Ji Longtai nodded. “Make sure to reach the finals, don’t even think about the top three.”
Ji Boyan nodded.
Not to mention the top three, even the top eight spots were dominated by teams from the Western Continent and Eastern Mulberry.
After Ji Longtai left, Ji Boyan called his assistant over, his gaze turning dark,
“What about Jing Zhou?”
The assistant shook his head, “We contacted him, but got blocked again.”
“The OPL selection is imminent, and he shows no sign of action?” Ji Boyan narrowed his eyes, sneering, “Fine, tough bone. The truly strong Galaxy team isn’t interested in him, and no other team dares to take him.”
He was curious to see how, with such poor equipment and resources, Jingzhou could still stand on the OPL stage.
In this lifetime, that seemed unlikely..
