Chapter 384 Ode to Joy 28
He sat steadily on the carved mahogany chair, his eyes as calm as water, motionless like a sculpture. When he saw Ji Weizhi slowly walking in, his eyes, which were originally calm, moved slightly. Ji Weizhi had sharp eyebrows, bright eyes, and a high nose bridge. He looked quite handsome. If he didn't have such an outstanding appearance, it would be difficult for him to kidnap his precious daughter.
At this moment, Yunzhi walked in with a light step, her face filled with joy: "Yiran, come and have a look, our Ningning is back!" She waved at Yiran while speaking. In fact, Yunzhi knew very well that the reason why Yiran showed such an awkward attitude was simply because his beloved daughter, whom he had loved for many years, suddenly had a boyfriend, and as a father, it was difficult for him to accept this reality for a while.
"Dad, I'm back! Oh, by the way, this is the Ji Weizhi whom I mentioned to you before." Luo Yining happily ran to Yiran, took his arm affectionately, raised her hand and pointed at Ji Weizhi who was not far behind her, and introduced him in a tender voice.
Seeing this, Ji Weizhi, who was standing aside, quickly stepped forward, smiled, and said politely and humbly: "Hello uncle, I am Ji Weizhi, nice to meet you." While speaking, his eyes were always on Yiran, revealing a hint of sincerity and expectation.
Seeing this, Yunzhi understood and gently pulled Luo Yining's hand, saying softly: "Come on, Ningning, Mommy will take you back to your room to pack your things. Let the two of them have a good chat." After that, she took Luo Yining's hand and walked towards her boudoir.
As the mother and daughter gradually disappeared from sight, only Yi Ran and Ji Weizhi were left standing opposite each other in the spacious living room. At this moment, the atmosphere seemed a little solemn, and an important conversation about whether or not to be recognized by the elders was about to begin...
"Ningning, tell your mother quickly, how did Ji Weizhi treat you?" As soon as Yunzhi and Luo Yining returned to the room, Yunzhi couldn't wait to sit on the soft and comfortable sofa in Luo Yining's room and asked her daughter with concern.
Although Ji Weizhi looked handsome, Yunzhi had no idea of his character. However, what Yunzhi cared about most at this moment was Ji Weizhi's attitude towards his precious daughter!
Luo Yining walked lightly to her mother's side and sat down. Then, like a docile and cute kitten, she snuggled up to Yunzhi's side affectionately and responded in a delicate voice, "Mom, I don't know if he treats his daughter very well!" Hearing this, Yunzhi's heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally settled down a little, and a relieved smile unconsciously appeared on her face.
"That's good, that's good! Ningning, this time we specially asked you to bring him home. In fact, your parents just want to see for themselves what this child is like. To be honest, your father and I don't have too many excessive requirements. As long as the two of you can tolerate and understand each other, and get along comfortably and happily, that would be great!" Yunzhi said earnestly, her eyes as gentle as water falling on her daughter.
"Yes, mom, don't worry, I understand all these principles. You are doing this for my own good. I want to marry your precious daughter just to get your approval." Luo Yining nodded obediently and buried her head deeper in her mother's warm embrace.
"Oh, Mom, I brought Tuanzi with me this time! Look, this is the super cute dog I mentioned to you before! You have always loved dogs!" Luo Yining said with joy. A furry, round and cheerful dog ran to Yunzhi, wagging its tail, with a look of curiosity and expectation in its eyes.
"Oh my, this little guy is called Tuanzi, what a cute name! Look at it, you've taken such good care of it! With such a well-behaved and sensible dog to accompany you, you won't feel lonely even if you live alone!" Yunzhi loved Tuanzi very much when she saw him. She squatted down, gently stroked Tuanzi's soft fur, and said with a smile.
Suddenly, Yunzhi seemed to remember something, and quickly stood up and said, "Oh, I was so happy that I only made some food for you this time, but forgot about the dumplings! I wonder what this little guy likes to eat? I'll quickly make it something delicious."
Seeing her mother so concerned about Tuanzi's diet, Luo Yining couldn't help but joked, "Mom, don't worry about it! Tuanzi is not picky about food. Basically, he will eat anything you give him. But, I can see that since you had Tuanzi, he's the only one in your heart and eyes. Even your precious daughter is almost thrown out of the window!" As she spoke, Luo Yining pouted pretending to be sad.
Tuanzi understood everyone's conversation and knew that the person who could make a delicious meal for him was the amiable Yunzhi. So he cleverly moved closer to Yunzhi, rubbed his head against her legs affectionately, and then lay down at her feet, looking at her with his big eyes, as if to say, "Grandma, hurry up and make me something delicious!"
"Haha, you little girl, you're already so grown up, but you're still competing with Tuanzi for favor!" Although Yunzhi scolded her daughter like this, her face was filled with a happy smile. The whole room was suddenly filled with laughter and warmth.
"Okay, let me take a look... Oh my! Time flies so fast, it feels like it's time in just a moment, let's go out quickly. I guess those two people are almost done chatting." Yunzhi raised her wrist, her eyes fell on the exquisite watch dial, then she turned to look at Luo Yining and said softly.
"Okay, let's go." Luo Yining responded, then stood up and walked out with Yunzhi lightly.
As soon as he walked out of the door, he saw a harmonious picture - Ji Weizhi and Yi Ran sat opposite each other, concentrating on playing chess. The two of them no longer had the unfamiliar feeling when they first met, and the atmosphere was much more harmonious. Especially Yi Ran, his originally serious face was now a little more gentle, and it was obvious that his attitude towards Ji Weizhi had changed. Although there was still a little awkwardness in his heart, it was not as obvious as at the beginning.
After all, after some contact, Yiran secretly observed and found that Ji Weizhi in front of him was not only outstanding in ability and courage, but more importantly, his eyes were full of deep affection when he looked at his daughter Luo Yining. As a person who had experienced this, Yiran understood the meaning of this affection.
"Dad, how is your game of chess going?" Luo Yining walked quickly to Yiran's side, sat down gently, and asked in a soft voice.
"Not bad." Yiran turned his head slightly, looked at his precious daughter lovingly, and answered softly.
"Dad, that's a good idea. This is the best." Luo Yining looked at her father with understanding and said with a smile. She knew her father's thoughts and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, Yunzhi gently reminded: "Okay Yiran, let's finish this dish with Xiaoji. It just so happens that the dishes made by Li Ma are almost ready to be served."
After hearing Yunzhi's words, Yiran responded, "I understand!"
Then, Luo Yining said to her father obediently, "Dad, I'm going to help Grandma Li and Mom." Then she turned and walked towards the kitchen. Just as she was about to step out of the door, she accidentally exchanged a glance with Ji Weizhi. At this moment, time seemed to freeze, and their eyes met.
Luo Yining couldn't help but sigh in her heart. She didn't expect Ji Weizhi to be able to successfully convince her father so quickly. He was really amazing! So, she gave Ji Weizhi an admiring look without hesitation, as if to say, "Well done!" Yiran saw all this. He looked at Ji Weizhi, the brat who kidnapped his daughter, and his originally gentle chess playing style instantly became fierce.
Ji Weizhi was keenly aware of Yiran's change, but he knew very well that the man in front of him was his future father-in-law, so he must not take it lightly and must be careful. In this way, the two sides went back and forth, and the chessboard was filled with smoke. However, in the end, Yiran was still better and narrowly defeated Ji Weizhi by only one move.
"Okay, let's go." Yi Ran said. As he finished speaking, this wonderful chess game finally came to an end.
Ji Weizhi followed behind to the living room. At this time, Luo Yining and Li Ma were serving dishes, so the two of them went in to help.
Yunzhi was very careful. She not only arranged the delicious dishes on the table in an orderly manner, but also picked out some tender and juicy meat dishes, carefully placed them in a small bowl, and gently pushed them in front of Tuanzi. The meat in the bowl was attractive in color and exuded a fragrance that made people salivate. Tuanzi was originally blinking his big eyes and looking around. When he saw this bowl full of delicious food that belonged to him, his eyes lit up instantly, and he danced with excitement, and made a happy cry.
After the meal, everyone enjoyed it with gusto. During the meal, Yiran and Ji Weizhi were in high spirits and tasted some fine wine. Since it was inconvenient to travel after drinking, Luo Yining decided to stay at home tonight. Ji Weizhi said goodbye to everyone and returned to his dormitory alone.
At this time, the night had quietly fallen, and the moonlight was like water falling on the ground. Ji Weizhi walked slowly into the dormitory with a slightly staggering step. However, what he didn't expect was that when he opened the door, he found that several people had already gathered in the room.
"Langtou, have you had a drink? How do you feel about visiting your father-in-law's house?" Li Lin smiled and seemed to be asking, but his tone was very affirmative. After all, almost everyone in the entire army knew that Ji Weizhi was going to visit his future father-in-law and mother-in-law.
Hua Diao on the side also echoed: "Looking at you, you should be recognized." He looked at Ji Weizhi carefully, and saw a gentle smile on his face. He seemed to be immersed in happiness, and the remaining smile seemed to be telling about the wonderful experience of the day.
The eagle's eyes widened, and he said in surprise, "Oh my, it's only been a short time, and he's already met his parents! This is progressing too fast!"
Ji Weizhi looked at the guys who came uninvited and stayed in his dormitory, shook his head helplessly, and asked, "I say, you guys, why are you standing here so late at night instead of taking a good rest?"
Li Lin chuckled and answered bluntly: "Of course we want you, Wolf Head, to treat us! It's because you dealt with your father-in-law and mother-in-law so quickly, we have to celebrate!" As he spoke, he winked at the others, and everyone nodded in agreement.
"Wait until the next time I have a break." Ji Wei knew clearly that this day would come.
He looked at Hua Diao who was looking forward to it and responded with a smile: "I've made an agreement this time! I will definitely not let you down, don't worry! And I will bring Ning Ning with me so that everyone can get to know her."
When Hua Diao heard this, a satisfied smile appeared on his face. He nodded repeatedly and said, "It's settled then. We're all waiting to meet my sister-in-law!" Others around him also echoed and expressed their agreement.
Ji Wei smiled and agreed: "Okay, no problem."
The next morning, the sun shone through the thin clouds onto the earth. Luo Yining drove slowly back to the 2204 community. After parking the car, she first put Tuanzi back home. Seeing that there was plenty of food at home, Luo Yining turned around and went out with peace of mind, and went straight to start a new day of busy work.
As the night gradually fell and the lights came on, Luo Yining finished a tiring day at work and set out on her way home. When they walked downstairs, they happened to meet Andy, so the two walked side by side, talking and laughing as they walked towards the elevator. As the elevator door slowly opened and closed, the numbers kept jumping up and finally stopped at the 22nd floor.
As soon as the elevator door opened, before Luo Yining and Andy had time to step out, they heard a surprised cry: "Andy, Ningning, I found a job! It's selling coffee. I didn't expect to find a job so quickly!" It turned out that Qiu Yingying was back.
She was seen holding a small exquisite cake in her hand, running towards Luo Yining and Andy happily. It turned out that she had just arrived home, and when she was about to put the cake down, she suddenly heard the sound of the elevator, so she curiously came out to see who it was, and unexpectedly ran into Luo Yining and Andy.
"McAfee, great, a very famous software company, congratulations." Andy said.
"I, I don't work in that software company. What I mean is that I will be selling coffee in the future. I work in a cafe, selling coffee, that kind of coffee." Qiu Yingying was confused, then explained.
