Chapter 471: Ji Wei Is Strange
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
On the day of the wedding, Ji Wei followed Jing Yao almost every step of the way and was very enthusiastic about everything.
Once Zhu Ling said that she was almost done, Ji Wei said before she could call for help, “Sister, I’ll go.”
At first, Jing Yao and Zhu Ling didn’t notice that something was wrong with him, but they noticed it after a few more times.
In fact, he had been in this state for the past few days. It was not obvious when he was teasing others. He was still the lively child from before, as if he would never grow up.
However, when he was alone, the situation changed. His eyes were listless, and he looked like he had something on his mind.
Although Jing Yao was busy preparing for the wedding, she did not forget to pay attention to him. She asked him twice, openly and secretly, but he always said that it was fine.
Zhu Ling had been with Jing Yao for the past few days, so she naturally noticed what Jing Yao discovered.
However, she thought that it was because Ji Wei had promised Wen Chen to give him a gift and did not think about anything else. It was only today that she realized that it was not because of Wen Chen.
“What’s wrong with him recently?” Jing Yao asked Zhu Ling.
Zhu Ling looked thoughtful. Actually, she had already vaguely guessed something, but she couldn’t tell Jing Yao before she was sure, not to mention that there were many people present.
Zhu Ling could only say, “I’ll ask him later.”
The makeup artist would follow Jing Yao for almost the entire day and help her touch up her makeup at all times. She roughly understood the relationship between Jing Yao and Ji Wei and smiled. “I guess she’s reluctant because Sister is getting married.”
Jing Yao thought that it might be because of this.
However, she felt that something was wrong. Not only had she registered her marriage with Liang Xun, but her child was also more than half a year old. If Ji Wei was really reluctant, he should have been reluctant when he found out that she was with Liang Xun.
However, in fact, Ji Wei approved of Liang Xun very much. He kept calling him “Brother-in-law”. He even worshiped Liang Xun and respected and feared him.
No one could guess what Ji Wei was thinking.
Jing Yao really couldn’t stand him like this. He didn’t seem to be unhappy. Whenever someone came to congratulate Jing Yao, he would smile more happily than anyone else, but he did have something on his mind. Everyone present could probably tell that.
Moreover, he wanted to pretend that he was completely fine, but he was too young after all. He could not pretend.
Jing Yao wanted to ask him, but she couldn’t get anything out of him. This was really strange. In the past, he would answer honestly no matter what Jing Yao asked him.
Including his first love, which went away without a cause. He told Jing Yao that the girl would prepare breakfast for him when she wooed him. She could find all kinds of reasons to give him gifts every day and even play games with him.
Ji Wei did not feel anything at first, but later on, he really felt that the girl was not bad, mainly because she could play with him. However, the girl went back on her word just as he relented.
He didn’t hold anything back from Jing Yao, but this time, no matter how Jing Yao asked, he said that he was fine.
For this, Jing Yao even sighed at Zhu Ling. “She’s really grown up and has her own little secret.”
Zhu Ling vaguely knew what was going on. She said, “You’re thinking too much. It’s probably because he doesn’t even know what’s wrong with him. You don’t have to worry about this. Just wait for him to slowly figure it out.”
Jing Yao looked at Zhu Ling suspiciously. She felt that Zhu Ling was implying something.
Zhu Ling didn’t want to upset Jing Yao with something she wasn’t sure of. Today was an important day for her.
It was impossible for Ji Wei to follow Jing Yao all the time. Soon, someone came to look for him.
His good friends also received invitations from their families, including Lin Hao.
Lin Hao was the best brother in Ji Wei’s country. They would gather every time they came back. In their small group, Lin Hao always took special care of him.
Every time Ji Wei’s pocket money was confiscated because he angered Wen Chen, it was Lin Hao who helped him and brought him out to play.
However, Ji Wei felt that Lin Hao had been acting weird around him for some time.
He recalled carefully. This change seemed to have started when he happened to meet Wen Chen when he went out to play.
Ji Wei found it strange and even asked Lin Hao, “Did Wen Chen badmouth me to you?”
Lin Hao said “no”, but his gaze was a little evasive. He did not dare to look Ji Wei in the eye at all.
This was obviously a sign of guilt. Ji Wei was even more certain that Wen Chen had badmouthed him to Lin Hao and ran to confront Wen Chen angrily.
In the end, Wen Chen said calmly, “Stay away from him in the future..”
