Chapter 385: Family Banquet (2)

Ji Yanbai smiled obsequiously. When the others saw this, they couldn’t help but feel disdain.

Although they knew that the old man wanted to skip his son’s generation and directly pa.s.s the Ji Group to Ji Haoyu, Ji Yanbai was, after all, an elder. There was no need for him to be so attentive to Ji Haoyu, right?

He had no backbone.

Ji Haoyu remained calm. He only curled his lips slightly and answered indifferently, “I’m preparing my graduation thesis.”

Ji Haoyu was twenty-two years old this year and was a Year Four student at Capital University.

However, this answer made Ji Yanbai touch his nose awkwardly.

Graduation thesis?

Everyone knew that Ji Haoyu had not returned to school in Year Four and had already been expelled by the school.

This perfunctory att.i.tude was too obvious.

Fortunately, at this moment, the butler walked up to Old Master Ji and said, “Master, everything is ready. We can start eating.”

Because Ji Haoyu was here, Old Master Ji was exceptionally happy. Hearing this, he smiled and called out to everyone, “Everyone, take a seat.”

Although the Old Master had said that there was no need for everyone to be present at the family banquet and they only had to be present as much as possible, everyone knew that this green light could only be switched on for one person, which was Ji Haoyu.

Therefore, when Ji Haoyu arrived, everyone was already present.

The dining table was a traditional round table. There were three such tables. The Ji family had strict family rules. One table was for men, one was for women, and one was for children.

Ji Haoyu was an exception.

As a grandson, not only did Ji Haoyu not sit at the same table as the children, but he also sat in the seat next to Old Master Ji.

Everyone was already used to it. Everyone knew Ji Haoyu’s status in the old man’s heart, so no one dared to say anything.

As soon as they sat down, the Ji family’s second master, who was also the Old Master’s biological younger brother, said, “Brother, your sixtieth birthday is in two months. We have to hold a grand celebration then.”

Although the Ji Group was an international corporation, the Ji family was very traditional, especially the elders of Old Master Ji’s generation.

“It’s going to happen in two months. It’s too early to mention it now!” Old Master Ji smiled indifferently.

His words stopped those who were eager to perform.

The Ji Group was not a family business. These people were respectful to the Old Master because the Ji Group belonged to the Old Master alone and not the entire Ji family.

The Ji family’s second master was a university professor.

The Ji family’s third master had his own small company that did foreign trade.

Old Master Ji’s children were not in the Ji Group.

Old Master Ji had a weird temperament, be it his personality or his way of doing things. It was not that these people from the Ji family were not capable, but he had set a rule for himself that family members could not enter the Ji Group except for his successor.

And this successor was Ji Haoyu.

Although these people could not enter the Ji Group, with the Ji Group as a gigantic tree providing shade, everyone was living well. Therefore, these people from the Ji family followed the old man’s lead. They were never absent at the weekly family banquet.

“Grandpa, Haoxue will be back tomorrow!” Ji Haoyu suddenly said.

The old man’s eyes lit up. “Haoxue is coming back?”

Ji Haoxue was Ji Haoyu’s biological younger sister. She completed her junior high school studies in Australia.

Ji Haoyu nodded slightly. “She’ll be taking the flight tomorrow afternoon.”

“Oh, this girl didn’t tell me when she called me the day before yesterday.” Old Master Ji smiled. “I have to pick her up personally tomorrow. Half a year has pa.s.sed in the blink of an eye. I miss her so much.”
