Wandering Aimlessly

Ji En pulled Ji Aier and left the Ji family mansion, not caring at all about Master Ji's roar and anger behind them.

"Ji En, you shouldn't have talked to the elders like that just now." Ji Aier stopped Ji En, who was leading her and she didn't know where to go, and said.

"If I wasn't the young master of the Ji family, if I was just a poor guy, an unknown person, would you still follow me?" Ji En ignored Ji Aier's words and turned around to ask her.

Ji Aier nodded. She followed him because he was Ji En, not for anything else. She had come to the Ji family with nothing in the first place, so she could also bear to leave the Ji family with nothing.

If Ji En really wasn't the young master of the Ji family, she might even be a bit happier because then she could tell him that she had actually fallen a little in love with him. But all these were just their imaginations. He was the only heir of the Ji family, the only son of the "Piano Queen," and this was an unchangeable fact.

"I knew you were the best to me!" Ji En pulled Ji Aier into his arms and whispered.

Ji Aier stretched out her hands to hug his waist, leaned against his chest, and listened to the strong sound of his heartbeat. This was the first time she had indulged herself so freely.

"I love you, Aier!" Ji En whispered in Ji Aier's ear. This was the first time she had heard him say this to her, and she finally understood why Cheng Zongyi said that Ji En loved her very much. But she didn't have the courage to say to him, "Ji En, I love you too." The distance between them was something she could never cross. She remembered the look in Master Ji's eyes when he looked at her just now.

Ji Aier quietly enjoyed the warmth of Ji En's embrace, greedily wanting to hold onto this short - lived happiness. Ji En's future didn't belong to her, but at least he was with her now, so she wanted to remember his embrace and body temperature.

Ji En held Ji Aier's hand, and they wandered around the crowded streets. Dressed very formally, they looked very out of place. Finally, they went into a clothing store, bought casual clothes, and changed into them. Ji En directly threw the formal clothes into the trash can. Then he asked the salesperson to pack up the evening dress that Ji Aier had worn.

Ji Aier carried the shopping bag and walked out of the clothing store with Ji En.

"You must be hungry. Let's go eat. What do you want to eat?" Ji En asked Ji Aier.

"Goubuli Baozi." Ji Aier thought for a while and then said.

"What's that?" Ji En stopped and asked Ji Aier. He had never heard of it before.

"It's baozi that even dogs won't eat." Ji Aier explained loudly with a laugh. A young master like him wouldn't know about such a delicious food in the world.

As soon as Ji En heard it, he knew that Ji Aier was teasing him, so he ran over to catch her. Ji Aier screamed and ran forward.

Finally, they really bought a few baozi and ate them as they walked, feeling very comfortable.

This was the happiest day for Ji Aier and Ji En. But this happy and joyful time was too short. It was so short that neither Ji Aier nor Ji En had time to cherish it before it passed.

The next day, the people of the Ji family found them and brought them back. Ji En was placed under house arrest, and Ji Aier still lived the life of a maid in the Ji family, although she was nominally the adopted daughter of the Ji family. In fact, she didn't have any complaints because this was her real life.
