Chapter 466: “Illusion”
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
At that time, Ji Wei was still very young and ignorant about many things, especially about death.
However, although children were ignorant about many things, they were very sensitive to the emotions of adults. He already knew from the words of those adults that he would not have parents in the future. He even heard his neighbors say that he would be an unwanted orphan in the future.
Hence, when Cheng Wan reached out to him, he had the same feeling for the first time.
He heaved a sigh of relief. He was really relieved and at ease.
The second time was because he pestered Wen Chen and wanted him to play with him. Jing Yuan was dissatisfied and pushed him into the pool. At that time, everyone present only stood on the shore and laughed at him. Only Jing Yao ran to call the adults.
However, later on, Jing Yuan and the others said that Jing Yao pushed him down. He was sent to the hospital in a coma as soon as he was rescued. When he explained later, no one believed him anymore.
No matter what he said, the Jing Family did not believe him.
At that time, when he was struggling in the water, he felt relieved when he heard Jing Yao calling for someone to run over anxiously.
He experienced it again just now. Just when he was exhausted from all the transits, he came out and saw Zhu Sui waiting outside.
There were so many people who fetched him before, but this was the first time he felt relieved to see someone waiting for him when he left the airport.
Of course, he decided to attribute the feeling just now to an “illusion”.
He must have sensed wrongly. He was too tired, so he had an illusion.
This was the most reasonable explanation.
Zhu Sui had no idea that Ji Wei’s impression of him had changed so much in an instant.
He helped Ji Wei put his luggage in the trunk and then opened the backseat door for him.
Ji Wei did not sit in immediately but looked up at him.
Zhu Sui said, “It’s been a long day. Have a good rest at the back.”
Ji Wei’s heart skipped a beat, and for some reason, he didn’t dare to look into Zhu Sui’s eyes. He lowered his head and thanked him. After sitting in, he closed his eyes and started to sleep.
Seeing this, Zhu Sui shook his head and chuckled. He didn’t say anything else and closed the car door before driving off.
Although Ji Wei’s eyes were closed, he could feel Zhu Sui’s gaze.
It was only when the gaze disappeared that he dared to open his eyes slightly and take a peek.
However, there was an old saying that was very good. Once a person was unlucky, they would not even be able to take a sip of cold water.
He had just opened his eyes when he met Zhu Sui’s gaze in the rearview mirror. Zhu Sui obviously did not expect Ji Wei to look at him. The two of them were stunned when their gazes met.
In the end, it was Zhu Sui who reacted first. He looked away and asked Ji Wei in a normal tone, “What do you want to say?”
Ji Wei shook her head. She wanted to tell him that she had nothing to say, but she suddenly thought of something when she opened her mouth. He lowered his head and started to rummage through the backpack he was carrying just now. Then, he took out an exquisite black gift box. He moved forward a little and reached out to the front seat to hand it over.
“I just bought it. It’s for you. Thank you for picking me up at the airport so late at night.” Ji Wei’s gaze darted left and right as he said this. It was obvious that he was feeling guilty.
Zhu Sui turned around and looked at him carefully, wanting to see something from his face.
However, before he could take a closer look, the cars in the back had already started honking. It turned out that he was so focused on observing Ji Wei that he did not even realize that the car had suddenly slowed down.
Ji Wei seemed to have been woken up by the sharp horn. He threw the gift box on the passenger seat and said quickly, “Drive seriously. I’m going to sleep. You’re not allowed to talk to me until we get home.”
“…” Zhu Sui.
There was only one thought in his mind now. This kid was even harder to serve than Zhu Ling.
He glanced at the gift box on the passenger seat from the corner of his eye. For some reason, he felt an unbearable itch. He really wanted to open it now and see what was inside.
He had received all kinds of gifts in his life, but this was the first time he was so curious. He was even thinking about whether it was feasible to pretend to ask Ji Wei what was inside.
Of course, he held back in the end.
It was too late. Going home at this time would definitely disturb Cheng Wan and the others’ rest. Zhu Sui drove Ji Wei back to his house. Ji Wei had no objections to his arrangement.
After returning to Zhu Sui’s house, Ji Wei thanked him and consciously carried his luggage to the guest room.
He was so familiar with the place that he felt like she was at home..
