Chapter 357: 137 Meeting Yama in White (Part 2)_1
Xiaojiang?
Xu En remembered that this was the same person who went fishing with Ji Heng and the others last time, “Uncle, do you have an acquaintance here? Where are they? I’ll have my assistant go down to receive them.”
“No need, you’re busy,” Ji Shaojun waved his hand, “I’m going down to bring Xiaohe up, I know the way.”
Shen Qing followed him, “I’ll go with you.”
The two left the cafeteria.
Director Wang looked at Ji Heng with surprise. The Ji Family had acquaintances in Jiangjing?
However, since today Xu En brought Ji Heng and the others to visit the Xu Family, inviting an “acquaintance” over at this time was not unexpected. People like Director Wang who navigated the business world often thought more deeply.
“Then, Mr. Xu, your family is busy, so I will head back to hand over my work.” Director Wang said goodbye politely. As for the Ji Family people, acquaintances, Director Wang didn’t care.
After everyone had left, Xu En turned to look at Ji Heng, “Uncle Ji, Wenyao will send you this afternoon.”
The museum that Wenyao had booked for Ji Heng and the others was this afternoon.
Xu En was letting Wenyao take them.
“No need,” Ji Heng waved his hand, “We can go by ourselves.”
Xu En frowned slightly. Why did he feel that the Ji Family people were somewhat polite to Xu Wenyao all day today?
He let Ji Heng walk ahead while he fell two steps behind and took out his phone to send a message to Xu Wenyao.
Asking about the matter.
**
Jiangjing University.
Xu Wenyao, who had just taken his car keys and stepped out of the dorm building, received the message from Xu En, and his expression became serious—
[I’ll come back right away, please help me explain to Mr. Ji and the others.]
Having said that, he found his car and drove to the Xu Family.
On the way, he received a call from Qi Shuyun.
“Wenyao,” Qi Shuyun’s voice held a hint of coquettishness, “come to my house to pick me up, okay? My dad asked me to give you the tickets for Academician Ma’s event.”
The tickets for Academician Ma’s lecture were scarce among undergraduates.
They were mostly given to postgraduates and above. Xu Wenyao had also participated in the university’s signup, but he hadn’t managed to get one.
However, it wasn’t surprising for the Qi Family to get tickets; Wenyao just patiently explained to Qi Shuyun, “Shuyun, I told you yesterday that I am taking them to the museum today.”
“Are you serious?” Qi Shuyun’s tone changed instantly as she sat up, “Last time you were running errands for them, this time you’re playing the tour guide, you have more patience with them than with me.”
“Shuyun, they’ve come all the way to Jiangjing…”
“It just means you don’t care about me enough!” Qi Shuyun was the only girl in three generations of the Qi Family, spoiled and pampered from a young age.
Xu Wenyao pulled the car over to the side of the road, massaging his forehead, “Listen to me, my dad previously in Xiangcheng…”
“I don’t care,” Qi Shuyun cut in, “If you don’t come pick me up, I’ll tear up the tickets!”
Xu Wenyao was silent for a long time, “Qi Shuyun, do you really think I’m after your tickets?”
Perhaps it was because he had never used such a serious tone before.
Even when she brought up breaking up, he had managed to speak to her nicely. It was the first time that Wenyao, who had always indulged her, had such an attitude.
“You know that’s not what I mean,” Qi Shuyun frowned.
“I’m driving,” Xu Wenyao restarted the car, “Let’s hang up for now.”

“You do have time,” Xu Shujie, wearing suit trousers and holding documents, stepped out of the car and gave Xu Wenyao a once-over, “you’re actually accompanying them to the museum.”
Xu Wenyao nodded slightly, his eyes soft but shadowed by faint clouds today, “Would you like to join us?”
“No, thank you,” Xu Shujie refused outright, “But Shuyun went to see your grandmother. Be careful, your grandmother will definitely want to talk to you tonight.”
“I got it.” Xu Wenyao hadn’t expected that Xu Shujie would be informed of this so quickly after driving to the Xu Family.
Xu Shujie trusted Xu Wenyao to handle things responsibly and didn’t say more.
Yu Guang saw Xu En escorting Ji Heng and the others down from the building: Ji Heng, Ji Shaojun, Shen Qing, and next to them was a…
A seven or eight-year-old boy?
He wore a red cotton jacket, the large pockets on both sides embroidered with cabbage designs that didn’t match the jacket, long eyelashes, delicate features, but with a somewhat blank expression.
Like a child from a New Year painting.
“Who is that?” Xu Shujie asked in surprise.
Xu Wenyao thought for a moment, “A friend of Alian’s.”
Xu Shujie nodded and asked no more.
“Uncle, Wenyao just happens to have time,” Xu En said with a smile to Ji Heng, “let the kid take you there, he can show you the way.”
Now that Xu Wenyao was there, Ji Heng found it hard to say no this time.
“The wedding is in two days, and you’re still at the company,” after the car left, Xu Shujie finally turned to look at Xu En, “but they have one friend after another, one acquaintance after another, how many relatives are they planning to bring this time?”
