Things Have Changed

Ji Aier looked out of the car window in disbelief. The scene was completely different from what she remembered. The city had become even more prosperous and fashionable. She pinched her hand, felt the pain, and had to accept the fact that she had really slept for ten years.What was even more astonishing was that even the Ji family estate had changed."Mommy, we're home!" After getting out of the car, Ji Minze opened the car door for Ji Aier and said.Ji Aier got out of the car and stared in astonishment at the scene in front of her. A completely strange, luxurious, and grand European - style building complex stood before her.Was this the Ji family estate?!"Daddy bought this land five years ago and had someone design and build the current Ji family estate. He said you would definitely like it! So we moved here from the old Ji family estate," Ji Minze explained.She did like it, indeed. But later, it would be very tiring for her to clean such a large area!"Madam!" The butler exclaimed, which was quite different from his usual strict demeanor."Butler, long time no see!" Looking at the somewhat frail and elderly butler, Ji Aier smiled. She remembered that one of the people she was most afraid of before was the butler."It's good that Madam is back. The young master will be very happy!" Ever since something happened to Madam, he had never seen the young master smile again.Ji Aier maintained her usual smile and didn't say anything because she still couldn't accept everything she was seeing at the moment.Except for the butler, none of the servants in the new Ji family estate were familiar to her!Ten years was enough time to change many things and people!"Wow, so beautiful!" A girl who looked about thirteen or fourteen years old appeared in front of Ji Aier. She was staring at Ji Aier and exclaimed in admiration."Tang Lei! You skipped school again!" Ji Minze frowned unhappily. At this time, she was here instead of at school. What else could it be but skipping school?Tang Lei stuck out her tongue sheepishly. Only Ji Minze could distinguish her from her sister at once. Even her father, Tang Jun, couldn't do it. So every time, he always called her Tang Lei accurately, not Tang Rui."Sister, hello! I'm Tang Lei, Minze's girlfriend!" Tang Lei introduced herself to Ji Aier generously, without any shyness."Tang Lei, she's my mommy. And don't say you're my girlfriend anymore!" Ji Minze was really at his wit's end. Encountering this little witch Tang Lei, she would casually say she was his girlfriend, making him seem like a flower - picking thief who wouldn't spare even the flowers of the motherland."Mommy!" Tang Lei only caught the first half of the sentence. She automatically ignored the second half and didn't listen at all. "Your mommy is so young! Could she be your stepmom?" Tang Lei pointed at Ji Aier in disbelief, not mincing her words at all!"He's my real son, no fake!" Ji Aier laughed. She quite liked this straightforward little girl. Just that she was a bit too young. Otherwise, she would really be a suitable girlfriend for Minze."Mommy, let's go inside. You must be tired!" Ji Minze said considerately, fearing that Ji Aier would also be driven crazy by Tang Lei.Tang Lei, who was still in shock, was a bit slow. When she came to her senses, she chased after them into the house."Sister, quickly tell me how you do your skin care usually!" Tang Lei asked Ji Aier excitedly, looking at Ji Aier's fair and delicate skin that seemed as if it could be broken by a touch due to long - term lack of sun exposure."Tang Lei, don't talk nonsense!" Ji Minze, who usually maintained good cultivation and demeanor, would always lose control whenever he encountered Tang Lei! Because she always managed to do things that left him dumbfounded or seriously asked him some questions that were really hard to answer."Sister! Your son is bullying me!" Tang Lei pretended to be wronged and squeezed out two tears as she said to Ji Aier."Minze, don't be so harsh on Tang Lei! She's still young. Just let her have her way a bit!" Ji Aier said to Ji Minze.Tang Lei, whose scheme had worked, secretly made a face at Ji Minze, then retracted her two crocodile tears. Finally, she turned around and smiled sweetly at Ji Aier.
