Chapter 387: Flashback
Ji Haoyu said nothing else. He opened the car door and was about to get in.
“Haoyu, wait!”
Ji Yanbai’s voice suddenly came from behind him. Ji Haoyu stopped in his tracks and turned around.
When he saw the person, Ji Haoyu’s expression was as usual. He only said, “Second Uncle, what’s the matter?”
Although Ji Yanbai was Ji Haoyu’s biological uncle, he rarely dared to put on any airs as an elder in front of Ji Haoyu. Not only that, but he also felt an inexplicable fear for this nephew. This might be related to Ji Haoyu’s gloomy and uncertain personality.
For example, now. Even if Ji Haoyu had no expression on his face, Ji Yanbai could not tell how he was feeling. This kind of uncertainty made Ji Yanbai feel the most terrified.
The smile on his face was a little stiff, but Ji Yanbai knew that Ji Haoyu would be the leader of the Ji Group in the future, so he had to get closer to him now to make plans for the future.
It could also be said that he was making plans for his children.
“When Haoxue comes back, remember to bring her to Second Uncle’s house to play.”
In the end, Ji Yanbai only said this.
When Ji Haoyu heard this, he did not refuse and only nodded gently.
No matter what, Ji Yanbai was his second uncle. Although he was a smooth talker, this was not a bad thing.
Seeing this, Ji Yanbai heaved a sigh of relief for some reason. The smile on his face also relaxed. He quickly said to Ji Haoyu, “Drive carefully on the road.”
Ji Haoyu got into the car and started it. Soon, he disappeared into the night.
Ji Yanbai stood on the spot and retracted his gaze, sighing deeply.
Ever since his elder brother left home, the only person in the family who could make the Old Master happy was his nephew.
He initially thought that because of his elder brother’s disappearance, he would naturally become the Old Master’s successor. However, it was obvious that the Old Master knew how capable his second son was. He would rather stay in power until he was in his sixties than have any intention of letting him take over.
In the beginning, Ji Yanbai inevitably felt a foul air in his heart, but after all these years, he had long figured it out.
He was not an ambitious person, let alone a scheming villain. He only hoped that Ji Haoyu would take care of his children in the future and that their lives would be easier.
That was all.
“Uncle Wu, our family will stay for the night to accompany the old man for the day. Please tidy up two guest rooms.” Ji Yanbai retracted his thoughts and turned to speak to Butler Wu.
Butler Wu nodded. “Alright, I’ll go now.”

Ji Haoyu drove all the way from Baiyun’s suburbs to Haicheng District. The bustling neon lights by the roadside flashed past. On the way home, he passed by Erzhong.
The car drove past the main gate of Erzhong, but in the next second, it turned back to the main gate.
It was already ten in the evening. The main gate of Erzhong was tightly shut. The entire school was dark and silent, and only the guard booth at the gate was lit.
Ji Haoyu’s gaze did not focus on Erzhong. He did not know where he was looking, but Jian Ai’s face flashed in his mind.
The last time they met was more than half a month ago. Ji Haoyu admitted that he remembered nothing, but at this moment, he realized he remembered every expression on Jian Ai’s face.
Her angry look when she gritted her teeth and said to him, “Ji Haoyu, you’re poisonous, right? This is a school!”
Her look of disdain when she slapped a coin in front of him. “Take your money and leave quickly. Don’t let me see you again!”
There was also her impatient but dazzling back view when she waved at him and said, “Eat shit!”
