When Ji Zhanbei spoke, his gaze swept over him indifferently. That gaze seemed curious, but it contained hostility.
Although it was Saturday, Xu Ruiyan had a client to meet. Therefore, he was ready to go to work. Dressed in a suit and leather shoes, he looked like an elite. As for Ji Zhanbei, two buttons of his shirt were unbuttoned, and his sleeves were rolled up to his elbows.
He sat while he stood. His clothes were disheveled and he was dressed in formal attire. However, Ji Zhanbei's aura was not inferior to his at all. The hostility in Xu Ruiyan's eyes intensified. However, Ji Zhanbei acted as if he didn't see it. He only looked at Xu Yuanbai.
As for Xia Jinyu, he didn't need to look. Since he had decided to get married, he had also decided to marry her, Xia Jinyu. He would not give her the slightest chance to refuse or escape.
Other than Xu Ruiyan, everyone else was sitting in the living room.
Xu Ruiyan stared at Ji Zhanbei for a long time, but he didn't get a hint of concession from that man. Their gazes met in mid-air, and invisible sparks flew in all directions.
Ji Zhanbei faced Xu Ruiyan's provocative gaze calmly, but Xu Ruiyan was filled with depression. He hadn't even started to make a move on his side, but who would have thought that someone would suddenly appear halfway?
Staring at Ji Zhanbei like this was really a very embarrassing and ungentlemanly thing to do. He didn't want to reveal any traces now, so he could only turn to face Xu Yuanbai. There was no need to rush. No matter who it was, there was always a first-come, first-served rule.
Back then, he had been able to threaten Zhuang Yan to not touch Xia Jinyu. She could still deal with this man in front of her today and make him stay away from the girl she wanted to protect.
"Daddy-"
"This is Ji Zhanbei, Commander Ji.”Xu Yuanbai gave a simple introduction and added,""I'm here to propose marriage."
"Propose marriage? What marriage proposal?" Xu Ruomeng sat down next to Xu Yuanbai, her face full of curiosity. Could he be here to propose marriage to her? But she did not know this man.
At this time, Xu Ruomeng had forgotten that Xia Jinyu rarely stayed here. Naturally, she didn't think that Ji Zhanbei was here to propose marriage to Xia Jinyu.
"Commander Ji said that he wants to marry Jinyu."
His words caused the Xu siblings to have different reactions. Xu Ruomeng instinctively looked at Xu Ruiyan, who turned to look at Xia Jinyu with widened eyes.
"Little Yu?" Xu Ruiyan refused to believe it. Xia Jinyu, who had just broken up with Zhuang Yan, would fall in love with another man. Moreover, there were no signs at all.
"Xia Jinyu?"
Xu Ruomeng didn't quite believe it. Guild Leader? And such a handsome regiment commander wanted to marry Xia Jinyu? Are you blind?
Ji Zhanbei? Yes, this was the name that Xia Jinyu had mentioned yesterday. Xu Ruiyan looked at Xia Jinyu, his eyes filled with disappointment that he did not even know. Could it be that he had acted too late and given Xia Jinyu too much time?
"You agree?" Xu Ruiyan's tone was a little anxious, but he did not realize it. However, the others could clearly hear it. Especially Ji Zhanbei.
He remembered that Xu Ruiyan had introduced him at the bar and said that he was Xia Jinyu's older brother. Looking at it now, this elder brother's name was real, but his heart was fake.
However, it was a pity. There was no reason for Ji Zhanbei to give up the person he fancied. No matter who he was, he would not give in.
Furthermore, according to the situation he had investigated, he also believed that Xia Jinyu did not like the Xu family at all. Otherwise, she wouldn't have moved out as soon as she entered university. He even specially rented a house outside when he got a job.
"I'm asking Xia Jinyu for her opinion.”Only then did Xu Yuanbai realize that there was something wrong with his son's gaze. However, he could not think too much about the situation in front of him. She looked at Xia Jinyu and said,"Jinyu, you're not a child anymore." Since Regiment Commander Ji has come to ask for a wife, you should at least show some sincerity.”
Xu Yuanbai's meaning was very obvious. He did not make the decision for Xia Jinyu and let Xia Jinyu make her own choice.
Regardless of whether she agreed or not, this was Xia Jinyu's own choice. Xia Meizhi wanted to say something, but she felt that it was inappropriate to say anything now.
Seeing Xu Ruiyan's actions just now, she felt a little strange. It had been so many years. She really did not know that Xu Ruiyan, who did not seem to get along with her daughter, would have such thoughts about her.
Xia Jinyu's body was blocked by Xu Ruiyan and she saw Ji Zhanbei. However, he caught Xu Ruomeng's gaze from the corner of his eye.
No matter how she looked at it, that gaze made her feel uncomfortable. Suddenly, she thought of what she had said yesterday and looked at Xu Ruiyan. Xu Ruiyan was also looking at her, but his gaze was not as sharp as Xu Ruomeng's. Instead, it was as sharp as if he wanted to eat her.
Xia Jinyu subconsciously shrunk her neck. She hadn't offended the King of Hell, right?
The two of them hadn't seen each other during this period of time. She had only asked him to pick her up yesterday. Why was he angry again?
Xia Jinyu had no way of knowing. She only felt that the men she knew were each more petty than the other. At the thought of this, she felt a little disgusted that Xu Ruiyan was blocking her line of sight. She pushed Xu Ruiyan away without thinking, and her eyes met Ji Zhanbei's.
Ji Zhanbei was still glaring at Xu Ruiyan just now. When he met Xia Jinyu's angry face, his expression had yet to change.
Being glared at by him like that, Xia Jinyu's depressed mood earlier turned into anger all of a sudden.
What are you staring at? He didn't like her that much and didn't like her, so he came to her and said he wanted to marry her? How big of a grudge was this?
Not only did he ruin her reputation in the army, but he also came to the Xu family to spout nonsense? Even if this man wanted to mess with her. But wasn't the price too high?
Wasn't he afraid that she would agree to it on impulse? What would he do then? Oh, right. Since he was messing with her, she naturally didn't care. At that time, a groom might run away and embarrass her.
Xia Jinyu didn't like Ji Zhanbei in her heart, so she used the greatest malice to speculate about him. Thinking of this, her expression darkened even more.
"Ji Zhanbei, you said you wanted to marry me just now?”
Was there really nothing wrong with his brain? For the sake of their previous "insignificant" grudge, she had to sacrifice her reputation and marriage?
"Of course." Ji Zhanbei didn't seem to see the mockery in her eyes. He faced her, but from the corner of his eye, he saw that Xu Ruiyan's expression seemed to have turned a little uglier."We've hugged and kissed before. I have to be responsible for you, right?”
Negative your sister--
Xia Jinyu resisted the urge to curse. Xu Ruiyan's expression had changed because of Ji Zhanbei's words. He stood up and grabbed Ji Zhanbei's hand.
If he wanted to go crazy, she had no obligation to accompany him. He liked to use marriage as a tool, but she was not interested in accompanying him.# Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:082820187:29PM
