Soon, a servant came up to clean up the broken glass on the ground and brought a new cup of tea.
Ji Heng's originally furious heart had more or less calmed down. When he opened his mouth again, his words were not as fierce as before.
"HMPH, the Bai family wants to kill Zhuo Ning, so what if I'm biased? She wants to make trouble, don't tell me I'm afraid of her? LET HER MAKE TROUBLE! In my territory, can she still ascend to heaven? "
Twisting his neck, Ji Heng's grandfather snorted coldly.
"..."Xia Jinqi immediately knew that her grandfather was speaking out of anger Helpless, she could only rub her temples and coax him in a gentle voice "Grandfather, you and Bai Jiutian, that was a long time ago. Now that they have taken the initiative to come to us to seek peace, if we continue to hold back and refuse to see them, others will say that you're stingy and have been holding a grudge for so many years. Since they came to seek peace first, why don't... ... We give them a way out, how about it?"
Ji Heng rolled his eyes and felt that what Xia Jinqi said made some sense, but he still snorted awkwardly. "If they want a way out, I'll give it to them? How generous is that? Why didn't that old thing Bai Jiutian Come? Let a little doll come, how can that be considered sincerity? "
When Xia Jinqi heard this, she couldn't help but snicker in her heart.
Sometimes, grandfather was really like a child. He had gambled for so many years in a fit of Pique. He had to force his words, but in his heart, he still wanted Bai Jiutian to personally come and apologize to him, right?
With a Soft Sigh, Xia Jinqi leaned over to sit beside Ji Heng's grandfather and took the initiative to serve him tea "I heard from Bai ran that her grandfather's health is getting worse by the day. It's difficult even to get out of bed, let alone travel so far. "
When he heard that Bai Jiutian's health was already this bad, Ji Heng's expression turned slightly cold and he was slightly moved.
However, his words were still unforgiving. "I think if it wasn't for capturing Zhuo Ning this time, he wouldn't have thought of me! "
These words, for some reason, made Xia Jinqi feel a little jealous.
Could it be... ... Grandfather had long known about the relationship between Zhuo Ning and the Bai family. He knew that the Bai family would definitely not let Zhuo Ning off, so he deliberately took Zhuo Ning in so that the Bai family would come looking for him personally ? ?
After thinking about it, Xia Jinqi felt that it wasn't impossible.
After all, she was well aware of her grandfather's strange temper!
Perhaps he had just been holding it in for so long and had no place to vent it all these years, which was why he had been throwing a tantrum.
If that was really the case, then the more she tried to persuade her grandfather to reconcile, the more depressed he would be.
Why not... ... Instead, stand on his side and help him scold the Bai family ? ?
A crafty glint flickered in her bright eyes. Xia Jinqi coughed heavily, cleared her throat, and said, "YOU'RE RIGHT "Back then, Bai Jiutian took so much money from our casino and ran off to the north by himself. He's been free and unfettered for so many years, but he never thought of coming to apologize "Now that he has something to ask for, he's coming back eagerly. He's really shameless to the extreme! "
Ji Heng's eyes really lit up when he heard that. He immediately followed up with a scolding "that shameless old thing, relying on his hand speed, he beat me without any face at all! Tell me, there were so many people back then, but none of them could tell if he was cheating or not! He really makes me angry! "
After cursing fiercely, Ji Heng finally came back to his senses. He looked back at Xia Jinqi with surprise. "How did you know? "
He shouldn't have told her about this, right?
"cousin told me. " Xia Jinqi chuckled and casually mentioned, "I also saw the sign at the casino's entrance! GRANDPA, you're really too domineering! "
