Rebirth: Pampered by My Children and Husband Chapter 215

Chapter 215: Chapter 215: Brothers Stand United

Ji Zeqiu had done many persuading Zhou Hongwen to give up Lin Xu, but it had little effect.

In the blink of an eye, Zhou Hongwen had disappeared.

Before Ji Zeqiu had even started to look for him, he returned, looking pale and distraught.

“What's wrong?” Ji Zeqiu asked curiously.

Zhou Hongwen hung his head and sighed.

Ji Zeqiu was still puzzled about why he had disappeared for a few minutes and then returned even more dejected?

He even had a flat reaction to the mention of Lin Xu's name.

It wasn't until Ji Zeqiu saw Xie Changyan next to Lin Xu that he suddenly realized.

It wasn't just Zhou Hongwen who had been rattled by Xie Changyan; even Ji Zeqiu's complexion had darkened.

Xie Changyan was holding Lin Xu in a very affectionate manner, speaking with a faint smile at the corner of his lips.

Meanwhile, Ji Yuqiao looked excited, as if struck by “ship” fever, hands cupping her cheeks and excitedly watching the two of them.

Ji Zeqiu went over, curled his fingers, and gave Ji Yuqiao's head a hard knock, “Why are you smiling like an idiot, don't you see he's about to whisk mom away?”

“Why do you talk just like big brother?” Ji Yuqiao, pained, covered her head, “Besides, what's wrong with father and mother being together?”

Ji Zeqiu's eyes narrowed slightly, looking at Ji Yuqiao as if she were a traitor, “When did he buy you off? He could never be our father!”

Looking at the two of them together, Ji Zeqiu grew increasingly displeased and pulled Lin Xu back to his side.

He looked at Xie Changyan with a trace of anger in his eyes, and spoke impolitely, “Thank you, President Xie, for attending tonight's party. However, President Xie has many matters to attend to. I won't keep you any longer.”

It was clearly an intention to send him away.

“Indeed, there are quite a few things, next we're discussing buying rings, wedding dresses, holding a wedding… not sure if there's enough time,” Xie Changyan pondered slightly.

Hearing his words, Ji Zeqiu's pupils shrunk suddenly, a look of disbelief appearing on his face, his body trembling for a moment, “You're going to marry him?!”

His dark eyes instantly reddened, as if he had been struck by something, showing his hurt and sadness.

Ji Tingyang, who had just made it through the crowd, also paused in his steps upon hearing their conversation.

His face changed slightly, and the atmosphere around him instantly turned icy, his gaze towards Xie Changyan carrying a terrifying chill.

Xie Changyan's mouth quirked, his tone casual with a drawn-out end, “Ah, I forgot to say, it's a friend's wedding…”

Ji Tingyang and Ji Zeqiu paused for a moment, then quickly realized they had been played, and fury surged in their eyes, glaring at Xie Changyan as if wanting to shoot fire.

The air was thick with the smell of gunpowder.

Lin Xu's corner of the mouth twitched, truly unable to comprehend why father and son meetings always looked like enemies about to fight.

Just as the brothers were about to be infuriated to death by Xie Changyan, Lin Xu quickly pulled them away from the “battlefield”.

“Mother, don't be fooled by Xie Changyan!” the brothers exclaimed in unison.

The brothers' tacit understanding appeared at a strange moment.

Ji Tingyang: “There are so many similar people in the world, don't be fooled by appearances.”

Ji Zeqiu: “Exactly, exactly!”

Ji Tingyang: “Apart from that face, he doesn't resemble our father in any way.”

Ji Zeqiu: “Exactly, exactly!”

The two brothers stood united against the external, leaving Lin Xu torn between laughter and tears.

Ji Yuqiao was unconvinced, “Mother and father have been together for so many years, how could she possibly recognize the wrong father, he must be the one!”

She was full of trust in Lin Xu's words.

Ji Tingyang's expression was stern as he glared at her, “When adults are speaking, children should not interrupt.”

A light voice from Ji Zeqiu came, “Keep babbling, and your pocket money will be halved in the future.”

A naked threat.

Ji Yuqiao's face immediately fell, and she threw herself into Lin Xu's arms to complain, “Big brother and second brother are bullying me, wu wu wu…”

Lin Xu patted her head to comfort her, “If Zeqiu deducts your pocket money, mom will give it to you in the future, be good, don't cry~”

Ji Yuqiao sniffled and rubbed her head against Lin Xu's neck with grievance.

At that moment, her two brothers seemed like the villains in a TV drama who tear apart the male and female leads.

Not only they wouldn't let their father and mother be together, but they also wanted to dock her pocket money.

“Okay, stop scaring Lanyue, otherwise I'm going to get mad,” Lin Xu said to the two brothers.

“I didn't say anything, it was Ji Zeqiu's remark about deducting pocket money that made her cry,” Ji Tingyang immediately abandoned Ji Zeqiu when it came to a crucial moment.

Ji Zeqiu: “…”

If he ever speaks up for Ji Tingyang again, he'll be a dog.

While the four of them were gathered talking, from time to time, artists passed by to greet them.

“Is this President Ji and Zeqiu's sister, she's really pretty,” a female artist remarked dramatically as she looked at Ji Yuqiao.

“Sister, have you ever thought about becoming an artist? Why don't you join our crew and make a cameo?” another person added.

“Ah, can I?” Ji Yuqiao's eyes lit up, sparkling with surprise.

“With her personality, she'd debut in the morning and retire in the afternoon,” Ji Tingyang commented.

“She doesn't know anything, being an artist is not for her,” Ji Zeqiu added.

“Who says I can't do anything, I can… I can…” Ji Yuqiao struggled to think of something impressive when her eyes suddenly caught the piano beside her, lighting up, “I can play the piano!”

“You can play?” Ji Zeqiu was surprised.

When they were kids, they had no money, and Ji Yuqiao had never taken any hobby classes. By the time Ji Tingyang reclaimed their parents' inheritance, she had grown up and lost interest in these activities.

Seeing his disbelief, Ji Yuqiao felt a surge of defiance and quickly sat down at the piano.

Her fair, slender fingers danced on the piano keys, and melodious piano sounds filled the air, flowing smoothly and beautifully, enchanting the listeners.

A few minutes later, the piece ended.

Ji Yuqiao stood up and, across the crowd, cockily lifted her chin at Ji Zeqiu, her eyes beaming with pride.

Suddenly, the crowd burst into applause.

Ji Yuqiao returned satisfied, feeling like she had vindicated herself, “How about that, I played well, didn't I?”

“Where did you learn to play the piano?” Ji Tingyang and Ji Zeqiu were both surprised.

“I learned it at the school music festival, and actually, I only know this one piece 'Fur Elice',” Ji Yuqiao chuckled and stuck out her tongue.

And just a few seconds ago.

In a corner of the venue, Xiao Yu caught just a fleeting glimpse, Ji Yuqiao's dazzling beauty with its edge unexpectedly burst into his sight.

He stared dazedly at Ji Yuqiao beside the piano on stage, as if a droplet had fallen into his heart, rippling outwards in waves.
