Chapter 941: Chapter 562: Is Master Huo Just a Baby-Making Machine? Willingly Delivering Himself? (Part 2)
Although Jiang Jinsang was surprised at how fast these two moved, having a child was only a matter of time, and he felt he needed to get used to it early.
However, since Huo Qinqi has a child, as a friend or brother, heâs genuinely happy for him.
"Just tell me the time and place."
...
While the atmosphere was lively here, on the other side, Ruan Mengxi was driving Qi Zeyan back to the hospital.
He hadnât expected to have a meal and witness a chaotic scene, and now he was excitedly chatting with his grandfather on the phone.
"...Couldnât believe Old Huo acted so fast, you wouldnât believe what the scene was like back then..."
"Qi Zeyan!" Grandpa Qiâs voice suddenly turned stern.
"Wh... whatâs wrong?"
"Did you sneak out of the hospital?"
"..."
"Huo Qinqi got married and had a child, what are you so excited about? If youâre so capable, go have a kid for me too. Look how happy you are, look at your group of friends, which one of them isnât married with kids?"
"Well, Jiang Chengsi doesnât have one."
"Why canât you emulate the better ones, why do you always focus on the least successful?"
At this moment, Jiang Chengsi was leisurely riding his beloved motorbike, enjoying the wind, completely unaware that he was once again the butt of someoneâs remarks.
"Grandpa, whatâs the least successful about it? Your words are so hurtful." Qi Zeyan chuckled.
"You told me before if Xiaohuo got married, it would be like a withered tree coming to life, flowers blooming on iron trees, look now, youâre even lower than a withered tree, your leg healed, didnât it, you can run now, right? Tomorrow Iâll arrange blind dates for you, even if theyâre not perfect matches, at least youâll make more friends."
"No, Grandpa, Grandâ"
Before Qi Zeyan could finish speaking, the phone was hung up.
Ruan Mengxi couldnât hear their conversation, but she could probably guess the content.
"Xiaoruan." Qi Zeyan suddenly looked at her.
"What can I do for you?"
"Book me a ticket to go abroad tonight, somewhere where I can get a visa on arrival, anywhere is fine." His grandfather was a man of his word; he was definitely serious. If he didnât run now, itâd be too late.
"But your ID and passport are with the old chairman."
"Why are they with my grandpa?"
"Havenât you been away from the company lately? Some documents and materials need your signature, and you found it troublesome, so you handed all your documents and seals to the old chairman."
"..."
Qi Zeyan was frustrated, meaning he didnât even have his ID to check into a hotel.
If he hid with Jiang Jinsang or Jiang Chengsi, heâd surely be caught immediately, and he suddenly felt that in the vast city of Beijing, there wasnât a place for him. His eyes caught a glimpse of the person driving, squinting slightly...
"Xiaoruan, do you live alone?"
"Huh?" Ruan Mengxi was taken aback, answering, "Yeah."
"I remember your place has a spare room..."
His grandfather probably wouldnât think heâd hide at Ruan Mengxiâs place, and moreover... he probably wouldnât give a girl a hard time, the old guy still has some grace.
"Yes." Ruan Mengxi originally wanted to live with Shen Shuci, but unfortunately, she wasnât willing.
"Letâs not go to the hospital, Iâll stay at your place for a couple of days, Iâll pay you daily room rent at hotel rates..."
"Boss?"
Ruan Mengxi was stunned by this sudden news, what kind of luck was this?
An opportunity delivered on a platter?
"Donât worry, Iâll pay for any expenses, food, or anything, itâs just a temporary stay at your place, just donât mention this to anyone, you understand what I mean, right?"
"Huh?" Ruan Mengxi was confused, "Boss, thatâs not appropriate, is it?"
At this moment, she wished she could jump three feet high with joy, almost ready to go buy a lottery ticket, but her face had to feign reluctance.
Her little aunt and her kid were definitely her lucky stars.
"Later, when it comes to my grandpa, you know what to do, right?"
Ruan Mengxi had been with him long enough to know the issue between him and his grandpa was about marriage pressure.
"But if the old chairman finds out about this..."
"Just say I forced you, put it all on me, donât worry about the rest."
"Well..."
"Relax, I wonât do anything to you, youâve been with me long enough to know my character."
"Thatâs not what I meant."
Ruan Mengxi wasnât afraid of Qi Zeyan doing anything to her, she was very afraid...
She wouldnât be able to control herself.
In the hospital, although they were spending a lot of time together, it was still a public place, she couldnât do anything, but now, coming to her own home, it felt entirely different.
That was her territory!
"By the way, tomorrow go to the hospital and call grandpa, tell him you canât find me, and leave the rest alone." Qi Zeyan felt the show must be performed thoroughly, probably his grandpa wouldnât expect him to hide at Ruan Mengxiâs.
Ruan Mengxi tightly clenched the steering wheel, trying hard to control her excited heart and trembling hands.
...
Qi Zeyan turned to look out the window, his fingers gently rubbing his knee, seemingly having suddenly thought of something, "Oh, you donât have a boyfriend, right? Otherwise, itâd be inconvenient for me to come."
"No, Iâve never had a boyfriend."
"Why not? Too busy?" Qi Zeyan teased, but from his angle, he could only see half of her profile.
Ruan Mengxi didnât say anything, Qi Zeyan raised an eyebrow, thinking to himself, with Ruan Mengxi being around him well, different caliber of people, perhaps her standards have been raised.
"Xiaoruan..."
"Hmm?"
"Actually, donât set your sights too high, after all... perfectly exceptional people are rare."
Qi Zeyan wanted to say that people as outstanding as him were rare, and she shouldnât use him as a reference, or she might never marry, but thinking it through, it seemed too arrogant.
"I know." Ruan Mengxi feigned calm, but inside she was overjoyed!
...
After returning home, Tang Wan and Jiang Jinsang discussed Shen Shuciâs pregnancy, and Tang Wan was excited the entire time.
"Old Huo will join us for the prenatal class tomorrow." Jiang Jinsang said.
"Actually, Brother Huo doesnât talk much, but heâs really considerate." Tang Wan conversed for a while, suddenly realizing, "I really didnât expect Zeyan, with his leg like that, still running around."
"He has never been able to stay still for a moment." Jiang Jinsang felt that if this continued, his leg might never heal.
"He and Xixi should have reached the hospital by now; call them."
"Got it, you go shower first, itâs getting late." They had spent too long with the Shen familyâs elder couple, and time had flown by; it was almost ten oâclock now.
When Tang Wan went for her shower, Jiang Jinsang also gave Qi Zeyan a call.
Feeling like he was on the run, he naturally didnât tell the truth, just mentioned he was at the hospital and about to sleep before hurriedly hanging up.
Shortly after, Tang Wanâs phone vibrated twice, and the screen lit up. Jiang Jinsang didnât intentionally peek, but happened to see the message pop up.
Running Pork Belly: [Tang Xiaowan, Iâm going crazy...]
[Iâm cohabiting with him.]
[What do I do, what if I canât control myself? I feel like Iâm going insane.]
Jiang Jinsang raised an eyebrow slightly, him, cohabiting?
He glanced at his own phone, his lips slowly curling into a smile. Whatâs been happening lately? Everyoneâs having quite a few incidents...
