Also, there was the threat of Bai Chi. After hearing Gu Jinhang’s advice, Ji Mingzhe had been trying to find a brother-in-law for himself. He wanted to get his younger sister married off as soon as possible. Of course, it would be more convenient for his younger sister to remain in the capital for a while.
Ji Mingyue was attending university in the provincial capital. Ji Mingzhe applied for leave for her and retained her in the capital.
But the girl refused to get married. Ji Mingzhe expended a great deal of effort to identify a few candidates, but she would not even meet them. She insisted that they were unsuitable.
Ji Mingzhe said helplessly, “Sister! What are you thinking? You know what things are like with the Bai family. We are no match for the Bai family. I cannot possibly see you waste your life because of that bastard, Bai Chi! Listen to me and meet them.. Find one that you like and marry him, all right?”
Ji Mingyue lowered her head and twisted her fingers uneasily. “I… I don’t want to get married!”
“You…” Ji Mingzhe’s head ached. His younger sister refused to listen to him. What could he do?
“Mingyue, this is not the time for tantrums. I know you were badly affected by the incident with Bai Chi. But you can’t possibly allow that scum to ruin your entire life.
“The Bai family’s shamelessness caused that incident. It has nothing to do with you. You’re twenty-eight years old now and it’s time for you to get married. In another two years, it will be even harder to make a match. Listen to me and make good use of this opportunity. Get to know a few people and see if there is anyone you fancy. All right?”
Ji Mingyue lowered her head. Her mind was filled with Gu Jinhang’s warm but naughty smile. She had met a few of the men that her older brother had mentioned, but not all of them. But regardless of whether she had met them or not, she felt that none of them could compare to Gu Jinhang.
While she was staying in the capital, Gu Jinhang had run into her several times. He had also especially sought her out a few times to bring her for meals and to have fun.
Even though Jin Jiang Restaurant was so expensive, he had brought her to the best and most expensive private room and ordered the costliest and rarest dishes for her. She had heard that that kind of crab was very, very expensive. She only knew that it was a crab, but it was huge! She had never seen such a large crab before. And there were some kinds of prawns that she had never seen before. They were exorbitant!
Even when she was eating a crab claw, she felt that she had to eat every scrap so as not to waste anything!
But Gu Jinhang, who was sitting opposite her, had explained the dishes to her calmly. He knew when each item was best eaten, where it was produced, and everything about it.
It was clearly an exorbitant item, but his explanation seemed to turn into a form of enjoyment. The cost did not matter. Like any other ordinary dish, all that mattered was that it was delicious.
And then there was some red wine that she had never heard of. It was so expensive that she felt as though she was drinking money with every sip she took. But Gu Jinhang had continued teaching her to evaluate wine in that gentlemanly way of his. He could name many types of wine. He knew where they came from, their vintage, and so on and so on. She listened, mesmerized, until her brain turned to mush, and she did not remember anything much!
She felt that he was just too incredible! He knew so many things! He was so rich! He was so handsome! He had such good taste!
When they walked along the streets and ruffians whistled at her, he would beat them up. He could single-handedly take on seven or eight of them without any problem.
She felt that he was just too amazing! And manly! She felt so safe with him.
Once, she went to school to pass something to him and saw him emerge from the school with a group of his classmates.
