Chapter 383 canst sit there (2/2)

When he spoke his question, Ji Chu Hua had just pulled her chair out. Sitting down, she smiles sweetly to her grandfather.

”Grandfather, this is my little sister, Ning Mei. I noticed there is still a vacant seat there. If grandpa doesn't mind, can she sit at the table with us?”

Her index finger points to the empty chair next to him.

Standing behind Ji Chu Hua, Ning Mei was extremely nervous. She is more afraid of the old man than she is with her own father and grandfather. However, she needs to remain clam. Ji Chu Hua is General Ji's precious granddaughter, so a few words from Ji Chu Hua should allow her to sit at the table.

Grandfather Ji silently nods his head when he heard Ji Chu Hua's words. No one knew if he had allowed the girl to sit or was pondering in thoughts.

Seeing this, Ji Chu Hua took it as approval. She turns to Ning Mei and gesture the girl to quickly sit down.

As Ning Mei moved around the table to the vacant seat, no one noticed the murderous look in Lu Tian's eyes.

Madam Lu looks at Ning Mei and sneers inside. She had heard Lu Han mention that Ning Mei was the woman going around claiming herself to be Lu Tian's fiancé.

Never has she met the person, but seeing her today, she can tell that Ning Mei is not a clean person.

Unaware of Madam Lu's dislike for her, Ning Mei reaches the vacant chair. She was so excited inside that she did not notice that more than half of the people at the table had turned cold towards her.

”Who said the seat is empty?”

Suddenly, someone from the table spoke aloud. Ning Mei jumped in fright. She turns her head to look at Lu Tian then Grandfather Ji.

She is completely confused now. Everyone saw Grandfather Ji nod his head in approval, so who would say that to her?

Thinking it was only her imagination, she proceeds to pull the chair out.

However, before she could even sit down, the same voice spoke again, but much louder this time.

”I said, who said the seat is empty?!”

This time, everyone at the table heard the voice. Everyone besides Lu Tian and Grandfather Ji turned to look at the owner.

Ji Chu Hua crease her brows together as she looked at the person who suddenly spoke.

”Jingxu, what are you saying? The seat is vacant, so it's normal for someone to sit.”

Ji Jingxu glares at the disgusting woman. His fists clench tightly under the table.

”Who told you no one is going to sit there? Grandfather hasn't even said she could sit down.”

The corners of Ji Chu Hua's lip twitch uncontrollably when she heard this. She wanted to retort back, but the stinking beat was right. Grandfather Ji only nod his head, he did not say whether it was alright for Ning Mei to sit.

Ning Mei was put in a tight spot. She looks at the young boy with eyes staring daggers at him.

”I haven't done anything to wrong you. Why are you treating me this way?”

Feeling more disgust towards both women, Ji Jingxu move his eyes from Ji Chua Hua and glares at Ning Mei.

”I don't care who you are. That chair is already taken.”

Ji Chu Hua: ”Jingxu, stop making a scene. Ning Mei can sit in it.”

Ji Shao An: ”Jingxu, the celebration has been going on for almost two hours now. No has shown up to claim the seat. Be a good boy and let your sister Ning Mei sit down.”

Ning Mei held her chin high and scoffed in Ji Jingxu's direction. She ignores his protests and sits down. From what she thinks, Ji Chu Hua and Ji Shao An hold more authority than the boy.

However, before she could even pull the chair, Ji Jingxu abruptly stood from his chair making a loud screeching sound.

”Are you death?! I said you can't sit there!”

The loud screech attracted everyone's attention and all the heads in the room turned to look at the scene.
