Chapter 83 - 83 Invitation
83 Invitation
Ji Jun debuted at a young age and could be considered to have shot to fame. He had earned a lot of money after being in the industry for so many years. In addition, he had invested well since he was young, so the money kept doubling in his hands. It could be said that at such a young age, he had already accumulated wealth that was not inferior to the entire Ji Family. It was just that these investments had not surfaced, so they were not conspicuous.
With such a capable grandson who could build such a huge career with his own efforts, Old Master Ji was so proud. How could he be dissatisfied?
Oh, no, there was still a little dissatisfaction. For example, Ji Jun was already in his twenties, but he had never brought a potential granddaughter-in-law back to let Old Master take a look.
“I saw in your surveillance video that you were talking to someone on the phone before Liu Bei came. Were you talking to that little friend who helped you?”
Ji Jun was speechless. “Your eyes are really sharp.”
“It’s just so-so.” Although the Old Master was in his seventies, he felt that he was still strong despite his age. “So is the young friend a man or a woman?” The recording of the call was too clean. He couldn’t find any clues at all, so he could only ask Ji Jun directly.
Ji Jun was suspiciously silent on the other end of the phone. Old Master, who knew his grandson’s character very well, immediately dragged out his voice and said, “Looks like it’s a girl.”
He knew it. With his grandson’s character, how many people could chat with him on the phone? As expected, he guessed that there was something wrong.
Old Master Ji instigated, “She helped you so much. It’s unreasonable for us not to thank her.”
“I do have to thank her. As for how I should thank her, I’ll see what I can do.” Ji Jun instinctively didn’t want the Old Master to interfere.
“It’s your business to thank her, but I have to thank her too. Bring her to our house for a simple meal.” It was also a good opportunity for him to see what this girl looked like.
Ji Jun’s mother happened to pass by and didn’t agree with him. “Father, Ji Jun is still engaged to that child from the Pei Family. What if they misunderstand when he suddenly invited another girl over for a meal?”
“It’s just a simple meal. What’s there to misunderstand?” Old Master Ji did not mind. Although it was said that the Pei family’s granddaughter and Ji Jun were engaged, it was just a verbal agreement between Mrs. Ji and the Pei family’s daughter.
Now that the Pei Family’s daughter had long died, the two families had not interacted with each other all these years. He did not know if that engagement still counted. It was rare for his grandson to meet someone he liked, so he had to make the first move.
Mrs. Ji could not persuade Old Master when he was being stubborn.
“I’m busy filming at the set now, so even if I want to treat her to a meal, it would be after this.” Ji Jun tried to postpone the matter.
However, Old Master Ji did not fall for it. “Cut it out. I’ve asked your manager, Lin Zi, and you only have a few scenes left.”
Ji Jun turned around and glared at Lin Zi. This traitor!
Lin Zi was confused. What did he leak about this mister again?
After being exposed by Old Master Ji, Ji Jun could only call Yu Han.
“Why are you treating me to a meal?” Yu Han did not understand. Moreover, she was going to Ji Jun’s house to meet his family? No matter how she looked at it, this was strange.
Ji Jun said, “My Old Master said that he wants to thank you.”
“But I didn’t help you much.” Yu Han didn’t want to go. If she didn’t owe Ji Jun a life-saving favor, she wouldn’t even want to interact with Ji Jun. Why would she want to meet his family?
“Old people are always more particular about this aspect. I’m just afraid of being rude.” Ji Jun had no choice but to find an excuse for the Old Master.
“I don’t deserve it. Tell him that I appreciate it.” Yu Han still refused politely.
Initially, Ji Jun did not agree to inviting Yu Han home for dinner. However, now that Yu Han was so resistant to this matter, Ji Jun suddenly changed his mind and insisted on making her agree.
“Why? You just took five million from me. Do you not want to see me anymore?” Ji Jun asked her back.
Yu Han instinctively covered her pocket. “You won’t regret after giving me the money, right?” She had already transferred the money to the director. She couldn’t return five million yuan to him if he wanted the money back now.
Indeed, she would only be more nervous when money was mentioned.
“Since you said that I invested this money, I can’t just be muddle-headed. No matter what, you should sign an agreement with me.” Since she only valued money, Ji Jun could only use money to talk to her.
This was serious business. Yu Han thought for a moment and could only agree. “Then I’ll ask Director Bai out and we’ll meet up with you.”
