This was Ji Lengming's second visit to the Wen family in his life.

The last time I visited was last year.

While he was in City C, Wen Wan was forced into a car just to attend her confession party.

Now, the second time comes.

The lintel is still tall and wide, the buildings that combine Chinese and Western styles are still standing, celebrities are coming and going, flowers are everywhere, the beauty is beautiful, the soft red is ten feet high, and luxury is prosperous.

It's still the same as in memory.

"Didn't you say that Wei Zhen wanted to see you alone if he had something to do? Should you go to him now or later?"

Ji Lengming stepped into the door of Wen's house. The service staff on both sides of the doorway greeted him and then led him to the main hall.

Evan followed Ji Lengming, heard the words, and replied: "I'll take you to the hall first, and I'll leave after you sit down."

Ji Lengming: "Alright."

After passing through the winding corridor, the service staff introduced Ji Lengming and Evan into a garden building to the east.

Someone in the side hall is keeping accounts. Who gave what gift and how much gift money they gave must be registered one by one.

Ji Lengming saw it, took out the birthday gift and family money from his pocket, and prepared to do as the Romans do.

Before entering the side hall door, he happened to collide with Ji Heng coming out of the side hall.

Ji Heng was dressed in formal attire today, including a suit, tie, and leather shoes. He had a gentle manner and a decent smile, and he had the image of a social elite.

He originally wanted to ignore Ji Lengming directly.

But looking at so many people around, and it was an occasion to give gifts to others, several elders knew them. If he, the elder brother, pretended not to know his younger brother, he would inevitably cause gossip.

So Ji Heng immediately smiled and greeted him.

"Leng Ming, are you here?"

Ji Lengming stopped when he saw Ji Heng.

Ji Heng could see the stiffness of his cheap brother, so he walked up to him and patted his shoulder.

The main theme is disgusting with each other.

"Dad hasn't arrived yet, so don't run around. The banquet will start later. Remember to sit at the same table with us."

Ji Lengming took half a step back, avoided the hand on his shoulder, and walked around Ji Heng. He did not want to greet him and act out the drama of brothers and sisters.

I found a reason casually.

"I won't be long, you can just eat. I will go back after delivering the gifts. I still have things to do at school."

Just as he was about to leave, his sleeves were pulled by Ji Heng.

Ji Heng's voice was so loud that he wished everyone could hear it.

"There's something going on at school, and I don't care if it's just a while. You haven't been home for more than half a year. Dad and I finally saw you and didn't even want to say hello. Don't you think it's too much?"

Chinese people care about human relations and filial piety, and pay attention to orderliness between elders and young ones.

As a son of man and a younger brother, Ji Lengming needs to show respect to his elder brother and parents.

Most of the people who come to the side hall to give gifts are of a certain age. They don't know much about the internal conflicts of the Ji family, but they must be from the perspective of parents and support the idea of ​​"children coming home often."

Someone immediately snorted: "Who are you! Your parents raised you so much that you don't even want to go back home, and you've read the books up to your nostrils!"

Some people directly said: "Aren't you raising a white-eyed wolf? These days, the father becomes the grandson and the son becomes the father. Let me see, you don't want such a son!"

All kinds of unpleasant words were heard one after another, and there were many discussions, completely branding Ji Lengming as a heartless and unfilial person.

Originally, Ji Lengming didn't want to talk to Ji Heng anymore. After all, the two people who hated each other would only become more disgusted with each other and feel sicker in their hearts the more they communicated.

But Ji Heng embarrassed him in public, so he naturally didn't want to suffer this insult.

Ji Lengming put the gift he took out back into his pocket.

He smiled innocently at Ji Heng.

His smile was warm and innocent, but it sent a chill down Ji Heng's spine.

Ji Lengming said bluntly: "I am not going home because I have no money and I have to work in a convenience store. If you can give me living expenses, I will naturally be willing to go home."

"Also, for Uncle Wen's birthday, I only bought a very cheap gift, but it also cost me the salary I earned from a week's work."

"The uncles and aunts here are either rich or noble. If I give such a humble gift, people will inevitably say that our family is stingy."

"After all, we are a family. How about you give me a gift, give me a random gift, and give me some extra living expenses?"

The veins on Ji Heng's forehead jumped.

He quickly thought and shouted: "I just gave you 5 yuan a month ago, and you spent it all so quickly?"

Ji Lengming showed no signs of weakness: "You made that female student's belly bigger, and I paid to settle it. The [-] you gave was not enough at all!"

Ji Heng's eyes turned red: "When will I..."

Before he finished speaking, all kinds of comments around him were already directed at him.

Playing with women is very common in wealthy families, but it is a relatively big scandal to make the woman pregnant without taking responsibility.

Moreover, it is even more embarrassing for his younger brother to clean up his elder brother's bad debts.

Ordinary people are willing to see what they see and hear what they hear. Ji Heng can't even explain it.

Ji Heng gritted his teeth and put it close to Ji Lengming's ear, and the sound escaped from between his teeth.

"You are ruthless! Let's wait and see!"

Ji Lengming sneered, his tone low, unleashing his greatest malice.

"You still want to wait and see? Hehe, I will beat you until you can't even get up!"

Ji Heng clenched his fist tightly.

"The future is too long, I hope you live to see that day!"

The brief confrontation between the two was fully observed by Wen Wan, who was always paying attention to Ji Lengming's movements.

Seeing Ji Lengming being made things difficult for him by Ji Heng, she originally wanted to step forward to defend him, but she was afraid that his honest temper would suffer.

Unexpectedly, he himself tortured Ji Heng.

He is indeed her favorite!

This appearance of Ji Lengming made her feel extremely fresh.

So much so that Wen Wan stayed there for a while, recalling what had just happened.

"I always thought he was a man of faith, perseverance, and brilliance. It turns out that he can be so naughty!"

Wei Zhen: "..."

Wen Wan is very happy.

Not only are you happy to see the person you miss, but you are also surprised to discover another side of that person.

She waved her palm: "Okay, you go find Evan, and I will do the rest."

After saying that, he sat on the wheelchair pushed by Wei Zhen.

Wei Zhen was puzzled: "Your legs are fine, why do you have to use a wheelchair?"

Wen Wan glanced at the other person as a warning.

"Who said my legs were fine? Now I'm paralyzed!"

Wei Zhen: "..."

Well, in order to chase his boss, he really didn’t have any shame.

Love, you are so sour!

When he looks for a wife in the future, he must not look for someone who has more holes than a hornet's nest!

Wen Wan pushes the wheel of the wheelchair, and the trick is quite realistic.

When he arrived near the side hall, his face suddenly changed.

Deep, repressed, and unsmiling, he makes people stay away from him. He is not at all like his father celebrating his birthday.

"There was a lot of noise here just now, what happened?"

Catching a service staff member, Wen Wan glanced at him coldly and questioned him.

Ji Lengming is queuing up to register gifts and cash.

His ears were sharp and his gentle voice was very discernible, so he immediately captured what the other person said.

The service staff pointed to Ji Lengming very cooperatively.

"Miss, that gentleman just had a chat with his brother. Nothing major happened."

Ji Lengming was afraid that being gentle would be difficult for others, so he stared at them, ready to help the service staff at any time.

And Wen Wan's gaze was following the direction of the service staff's finger.

The two of them just looked at each other.

Their eyes met in the air.

The next moment, not even a second, Wen Wan had calmly looked away.

It was as if Ji Lengming was not seen.

"As long as it's no big deal, let's go!"

The service staff was relieved and hurried away.

Then, Wen Wan's wheelchair turned and moved towards Ji Lengming.

Ji Lengming thought she came to him to ask about the commotion just now.

To his surprise, the other party controlled the wheelchair and did not stop by his side, but went straight to the gift registration office.

The wooden table is covered with red cloth.

One of the three people is responsible for acceptance, one is responsible for taking notes, and one is responsible for computer registration.

Behind them were large and small packages of gifts, which were almost piled up into a small mountain. In their hands were stacks of bulging red envelopes. One glance at them showed that they had a lot of money.

"Miss." The three personnel greeted.

"You guys are busy with your business, I'll come over and take a look."

After saying that, Wen Wan casually picked up a gift list and pretended to browse through it.

Her thoughts were all on Ji Lengming.

She got the timing right, and it happened to be Ji Lengming's turn to register for the gift.

"Sir, please tell me your name so we can register more easily."

Ji Lengming was brought back to his mind by the registrar's voice. He glanced over Wen Wan from the corner of his eye and felt a little relieved when he saw that the other party made no additional movements.

Force yourself not to think too much and try to pay the money and leave as soon as possible.

He took out a gift box from his pocket and a red envelope containing the money.

"Ji Lengming."

The person counting the gifts opened the gift box and glanced at it several times.

He said to the registration staff beside him: "A XX brand thermos cup."

The registration staff was stunned. They had received so many gifts, including gold, silver, jade, ginseng and deer antlers, watches and cameras, and tea and porcelain.

This is the first time I have received such a simple... thermos cup.

Ji Lengming doesn't like socializing with people.

Moreover, his factory is facing industrial upgrading, and he is spending money everywhere, saving whatever he can.

For the sake of face, he is not willing to do this kind of thing by pretending to be rich and buying expensive gifts.

He didn't want to get anything from Tongren Wen. In fact, he really wanted to stay away from this family, so he bought a high-quality and low-price... thermos cup.

"Hahaha... Ji Lengming, you are so poor that you actually gave me a thermos cup on such an occasion, hahaha..."

A burst of cheerful laughter came from far and near.

Originally, everyone present was still paying attention to the cheap gifts. In an instant, everyone focused their attention on the man who was laughing unscrupulously.

Wen Wan and Ji Lengming also followed suit.

Wang Sisi walked in high heels, bright red makeup, and strode forward.

The tight-fitting long skirt perfectly showed off her figure. Her proud figure was full of vitality, and her every move and smile was charming.

She came to the registration point and put her arms around Ji Lengming's shoulders familiarly.

The other hand ‘popped’ a small box.

He raised an eyebrow at Ji Lengming.

"See clearly, this is what I call giving gifts!"

Then he turned to the registration staff and said: "Wang Sisi, light luxury trinkets, a pair of men's cufflinks."

Wenwan looked calm on the surface, but in fact, the fingertips of the fingers holding the gift slip had turned white because of too much force.

She looked at Wang Sisi's hand holding Ji Lengming's shoulder without any trace.

To the registration clerk beside him, he wrote lightly: "My dad doesn't need such fancy things."

"Throw it away!"
