Ji Hanxing turned back and took the pile of things he had bought from Yan Jinyue.
Yan Jinyue instinctively kept his hands beneath them. "I can carry them..."
"No! I'll carry them."
Ji Hanxing shook his head, gripping the gift bags so tightly that his knuckles turned white. Seeing this, Yan Jinyue let go.
"All right."
Yan Jinyue withdrew his hand and rested it on Ji Hanxing's waist with utter ease.
Just as Ji Hanxing was about to say something, the heavy front door slowly opened, revealing a vigorous elderly man with graying hair.
The elderly man had graying hair and wore a pair of reading glasses. Time had left deep marks on him, but his smile was warm.
He wore a brown vest that looked years old, yet had been kept immaculately clean and tidy.
It was precisely that vest that gave Ji Hanxing an inkling.
[Could this be the old butler who always turns up in a domineering CEO's household?]

Yan Jinyue merely cast a brief glance at Ji Hanxing, the corners of his mouth lifting slightly.
The elderly man gazed at Yan Jinyue and Ji Hanxing with excitement. His eyes even grew a little moist, especially when he saw Ji Hanxing beside Yan Jinyue.
Yan Jinyue smiled. "Grandpa He."

Ji Hanxing's heart jolted. He really is a butler? Keeping his expression composed, he greeted Butler He. "Hello, Grandpa He."
Butler He nodded repeatedly
