Chapter 1145: 1125, Extra Story Seventeen (7) Chapter 1145: 1125, Extra Story Seventeen (7) âCooking?â Xi Anâan was astonished.
Is that all heâs asking for?
The CEO of JK International, of all people, surely isnât lacking someone to cook for him.
What does this mean?
Quan Tianqi softly hummed in agreement, âThatâs right.â
âWhy?â Xi Anâan asked.
She lifted her head, her surprised expression fully captured by Quan Tianqi, who smiled faintly, âWhy what?â
Xi Anâan locked eyes with him, âWhy do you want me to cook a meal for you?â
âCanât you cook?â Quan Tianqi still didnât answer her question directly, changing the subject suddenly, as after all, his mother was indeed a kitchen assassin.
Xi Anâan admitted without any guard, âYeah, I can.â
âThen that settles it. You can cook a meal for me as a way to repay the favor for that time with the clothes,â Quan Tianqi concluded decisively, leaving Xi Anâan dizzy with confusion.
Xi Anâan still felt something was off, âWouldnât it be fine if I just treated you to a meal? My cooking skills canât compare to those of a restaurant chef; are you sure you want to eat it?â
The dishes she could make were just some ordinary home-cooked meals, and they certainly couldnât compare to the skills of those chefs.
Quan Tianqi smiled with lifted lips, âFood cooked by you would be more sincere.â
âHuh?â
âIf you agree, I can help you with the favor you mentioned just now,â Quan Tianqi pressed on, seeing her hesitant expression.
âYou can really help me see my great-grandfather?â Mentioning the senior Mr. Xi, Xi Anâanâs face revealed a noticeable softening.
Quan Tianqi slightly raised his dark brows, his mouth curving into a teasing smile, âSince youâve come to me for help, doesnât that mean youâre certain I can be of assistance?â
He was delighted that she thought of him first for any issue.
Hearing this, Xi Anâan hastily lowered her head, her fingers twisting at the hem of her clothes, âAlright, I agree to the condition you just proposed.â
âThen tomorrow afternoon,â Quan Tianqi blurted out without context, and Xi Anâan was momentarily stunned, âWhat?â
Quan Tianqi didnât offer her an explanation, his sculpted lips curving into a devilish smile, âItâs getting late; Iâll take you back. Where do you live?â
Xi Anâan gave the name of her hotel, and Quan Tianqi started the car and drove off.
Under the streetlights, the sports car stopped in front of the hotelâs main entrance.
Xi Anâan opened the car door and got out, closed the door behind her, turned around, bent down, and leaned on the car window edge looking at the man inside.
âThank you.â
Quan Tianqi tilted his head slightly, a warm smile on his face, âGo to the hospital tomorrow; rest assured, no one will dare to stop you.â
Xi Anâan smiled back, âOkay.â
After a night of light rain, the sky cleared up.
Because Mr. Xiâs condition was very unstable, and the doctors had issued a critical illness notice, the Xi family members had all rushed over early in the morning.
Only, what exactly they were all scheming in their hearts, well, that remained unknown.
When Xi Anâan arrived, the entrance to the ward was crowded with members of the Xi family; even relatives who were seldom involved showed up.
Seeing this situation, Xi Anâanâs heart skipped a beat, guessing that the senior Mr. Xiâs condition must be dire.
As if they were natural enemies, every time Xi Yu saw Xi Anâan, she would act arrogantly, as if invigorated.
âXi Anâan, what are you doing here again? Didnât get kicked out yesterday, so youâve come to humiliate yourself today?â The aggressive words came with undisguised contempt.
Xi Anâan glanced at her indifferently, when suddenly her phone in her pocket started ringing.
She took out her phone and put it to her ear. The manâs clear and cold voice came through, âYouâve arrived at the hospital?â
Having heard this voice a few times, Xi Anâan still found it damnably pleasant, and she hummed in affirmation.
On the other end, Quan Tianqi toyed with a pen, his gaze deep and unfathomable, âIs Xi Yuan there?â
âYeah,â Xi Anâan glanced at Xi Yuan out of the corner of her eye, âHeâs here.â
Quan Tianqi, âGive him the phone, tell him to take the call.â
Xi Anâan walked over to Xi Yuan and handed him the phone, âSomeone wants to talk to you.â
âXi Anâan, what kind of game are you playing now?â Xi Yu couldnât help but sneer sarcastically, seeing Xi Anâan ignoring her all this time.
Xi Anâan completely blocked out her words and looked steadily at Xi Yuan, who after giving her a once-over, took the phone.
âWho is this?â
Quan Tianqi leaned back, his dark eyes narrowed, âThis is Quan Tianqi.â
A few simple words heavily struck Xi Yuanâs heart.
Quan Tianqi!
He became serious, never before seen solemnity on his face, âCEO Quan.â
Although young, the man undoubtedly had the capital to command respect.
