Chapter 45 (2/2)

“This Friday, there’s an event at the Cultural Affairs Bureau. Why don’t you attend it with Anning?”

Raising his head, the Old Master looked at Yang Yufang and told her suddenly.

Yang Yufang was dumbfounded. She looked up at Ji Zhengdao, who lowered his head and continued eating after he finished saying his piece.

As the blessing came out of the blue, Yang Yufang was momentarily speechless before she nodded her head ecstatically, “Yes. Thanks, Dad.”

For so many years, she was only the second Young Madam Ji in name, when in reality, her standing at the Jis got surpassed even by their oldest granddaughter, Ji Xiangting.

All these years, regardless of the activities, she never got the opportunity to go. It was always Lin Yanqin who represented the Old Master.

It was the first time the old man personally let her to appear publicly.

Feeling like she had finally gotten liberated from endless suffering, she lowered her head, secretly delighted in her heart.

One man’s gain was another’s loss.

Lin Yanqin got so baffled by the old man’s arrangement that she frowned and looked at him, “Dad…”

But before she managed to speak, the Old Master interrupted with a stern gaze.

“In this home, I do not wish for anyone to question my decisions.”

The moment he spoke, no one dared to challenge him.

Gritting her teeth, Lin Yanqin wrung her skirt hem angrily under the table.

As usual, the Old Master was the first to leave the dining room. The moment he left, the atmosphere instantly became forgiving.

Yang Yufang put her cutlery down and told Ji Anning enthusiastically, “Anning, if you don’t have any classes this afternoon, come back earlier. Mom will take you shopping for a couple of outfits.”
