The Protagonist Just Wants to Fall in Love [MTL]

Chapter 109 Hooking Up Men

When it was almost time to get off work, Ji Wenchen received a call on his cell phone. The caller was his father.

　　He pushed the door open and went outside, and answered the phone. The person talking on the other end was his mother.

　　"Chenchen?"

　　"It's me."

　　The mother over there asked him how his work was, whether it was hard or tiring. After talking for a long time without getting to the point, Ji Guanqing at the side snatched the phone and said that next Wednesday was the birthday of the old man of the Ji family. He returned to China this year and had not visited the old man yet. Ji Guanqing asked him to go with her to see the old man.

　　Mr. Ji likes quietness, so he probably only invites his family to his birthday party, and doesn't want to have a big celebration. Ji Wenchen pondered for a moment and said, "I know, I'll go."

　　After hanging up the phone, Ji Wenchen looked at the date. There were still six days until the old man's birthday. He tapped his phone on his palm.

　　According to the information he had learned, before the original body became rebellious, it often liked to go to Grandpa Ji's place, and the old man doted on this little grandson. Later, when it had other fun, the original body rarely went to Grandpa Ji's place.

　　[Is there a teahouse over there?] He asked the system.

　　System: [Well, there is also a mountain of tea leaves, with pleasant scenery, a tourist attraction.]

　　Ji Wenchen's eyes glowed.

　　It sounds like fun.

　　Ji Wenchen told Qi Yunxiao about asking for leave that night, and his reasons were legitimate, but Qi Yunxiao seemed to remember it very clearly.

　　"Birthday?" he asked. "Isn't it next Wednesday?"

　　Ji Wenchen: "Boss Qi has a good memory. However, Boss Qi, I have not visited my grandfather since I returned to China this year. You are not short of people here. You will not refuse to let me go if I ask for leave, right?"

Qi Yunxiao remained expressionless, gently pressed the joint of his index finger, and finally said "hmm", approving his leave.

　　Ji Wenchen's job as his assistant was actually not a formal one. It was just a trial. In the past, he didn't need to ask for leave. If he wanted to leave, he would just leave. There was no need for all this nonsense.

　　Ji Wenchen, who had been approved for leave, did not stay at Qi Yunxiao's place that night. He returned to his own villa, packed his luggage, booked a high-speed rail ticket and a hotel, and set off early the next morning.

　　Ten o'clock in the morning, City N.

　　The black car carrying passengers was driving slowly. This could be considered a country road. The wheat in the fields on both sides grew very tall and was golden, and was ready to be harvested.

　　The car window was open, and a warm breeze blew past. The man in the passenger seat had his black hat brim pulled down and was wearing a sporty suit. It was Ji Wenchen.

　　The sunlight penetrated the car window and fell on half of his face. The light and dark deepened the three-dimensionality of his profile.

　　Ji Wenchen pushed the brim of his hat with his fingers, put his elbows on the window, and tilted his head to look out the car window.

　　"Master, is there anything fun to do around here?"

　　"Hey, you really asked the right person," the driver enthusiastically told him everything because he saw that the young man was good-looking, had a gentle temper, and liked to talk.
