Xi Jiu opened WeChat, clicked into Ruan Qi's chat window and looked at it for a while, then suddenly asked: "How is the progress over there in Baiyi?"
"The system is already being repaired." Assistant Mu pushed up his glasses, "After the palace steward sent Bai Yi over there, he stayed locked in the room and couldn't leave. Yesterday, he said that the system's condition was worse than expected.
It’s complicated, he will ask Tianlu to send someone else over.”
Xi Jiu: "Have you found those people who betrayed Tianlu with Xue Hong?"
"We have found a few. The people are too scattered. It will take time to find them all."
Xi Jiu said "hmm", leaned back on the chair and closed her eyes.
Assistant Mu quietly stepped out.
It was very quiet in the office.
After a while, the man slowly opened his eyes.
He scrolled the mouse and clicked on a video on his computer——
In the video, Bai Yi, fully armed, followed Gong as he stood up and walked into the building step by step.
Xi Jiu stared at his back closely.
His expression was dark and unclear.
…
In the next few days, Xi Jiu transformed into a breakfast delivery boy and appeared at the door of Ruan Qi's house at 6:30 every morning.
Steamed buns, deep-fried dough sticks, tofu puffs, all kinds of breakfast were not the same, and they made Nie Heng and the two dogs fat.
Ruan Qi, on the other hand, has a small appetite and does not gain weight no matter how much she eats. This makes the breeder who wants to feed the little white rabbits a little frustrated.
"Mr. Xi," the little girl put down her chopsticks, and while Ruan Munan and Nie Heng were going to the kitchen, she stretched out her little paws and pulled off the man's clothes.
Xi Jiu turned her head, looked at her intently, and asked in a deep voice: "What's wrong?"
When the little girl heard his gentle voice, her face couldn't help but blush.
She dug her fingers into her sleeves twice and whispered: "Mr. Xi, you really don't have to come to deliver breakfast every day. I..."
She paused and raised her head to look at Xi Jiu.
The man's facial features were perfect, perhaps because he was used to having a cold face, and his brows and eyes were sharp. But his eyes were very gentle, as tolerant as the sea, making the little girl unable to say anything to reject him.
Ruan Qi suddenly remembered what Shen Wenqian said in the car that day——
Why was she able to reject those suitors so simply in the past, but why was she so entangled when it was Mr. Xi's turn?
The little girl who had only six of her seven orifices had never figured it out, but she felt that she shouldn't have delayed replying to Xi Jiu for so many days.
She wanted to tell him, don't like me, I won't live long and I might die one day.
But when the words came to his lips, he couldn't say them out.
Not only could I not say it out loud, but I also felt a little sour and swollen in my heart.
Thinking of this, Ruan Qi felt a little depressed.
Xi Jiu was originally waiting for her to speak, but gradually, he noticed that the little girl's eyes were red!
The man's heart seemed to have been stabbed hard by a needle.
He didn't care that Ruan Munan and Nie Heng were still at home, and quickly raised the little girl's chin with his fingers.
"Why are you crying?"
Ruan Qi looked at Xi Jiu, his eyes full of heartache and worry.
The little girl felt even more sad.
"Mr. Xi," she bit her lower lip, feeling extremely aggrieved, "I..."
"What are you doing!"
Ruan Munan's cold voice interrupted her.
Ruan Qi was startled, and her little face that was lifted up by Xi Jiu's fingers quickly tilted back, and she almost fell off the chair with too much force.
Xi Jiu and Ruan Munan were so frightened that their hearts almost stopped.
The two men reached out at the same time and grabbed the little girl's arms, one on the left and the other on the right.
Ruan Xiaoqi, who was saved, couldn't bear to feel sad. She raised her little paw and patted her chest fearfully.
How scary!
…
A false alarm once again stopped the conversation between Ruan Qi and Xi Jiu.
There are still two days left before the launch of "Fairy Love". Ruan Qi is busy packing her things and her attention has been successfully transferred to work.
"Senior sister, the second batch of Heavenly King's Hair Growth Pills for the Third Hospital has been produced. How are the preparations at the store?"
"The decoration company has signed the contract." Ruan Qi threw a few pieces of clothes into the suitcase. Damai Baby sighed humanely and folded the messy clothes again.
The little girl patted it on the head with a smile, and then said to Nie Heng: "The decoration company was introduced to me by Mr. Xi. It is very reliable. The store will take about a month to be renovated. Xiaozi, please remember to supervise the work."
Nie Heng made an 'ok' gesture.
At this time, Ruan Qi's cell phone on the table rang.
She lowered her head and glanced - Third Grandpa.
The little girl raised her eyebrows in surprise.
Third Grandpa Ruan Zhen is Grandpa Ruan’s biological brother. The two old men have a very good relationship. When Ruan Qi was young, Third Grandpa often played with her.
However, ten years ago, his daughter Ruan Chunhua took him to the Imperial Capital for retirement. After that, the contact between the two families became less and less.
It wasn't until Ruan Qi came to the Imperial Capital a few months ago that she saw the old man again.
The old man was still very kind and treated her as well as his own granddaughter. It was also for this reason that Ruan Qicai never told her family what Ruan Chunhua had done.
Third Grandpa doesn’t usually contact her, so why did he call her today?
The little girl murmured in confusion and pressed the connect button.
"Hello, is this Xiaoqi?" The old man's kind voice came from the phone.
The little girl's eyes curled up and she said sweetly: "Grandpa Third, I am Xiaoqi~"
Ruan Zhen smiled happily.
"Xiao Qi, I heard from your little aunt yesterday that you were in a car accident? How was it? Is it okay? Are you seriously injured?"
"It's okay, Third Grandpa," Ruan Qi replied obediently, "It's just a few scratches and they're all healed. Third Grandpa, don't worry~"
Ruan Zhen: "It's okay, it's okay. Just be careful next time. By the way, Xiaoqi, are you free these days? Third Grandpa wants to see you in person so you can rest assured!"
"Third Grandpa, I have to go on a business trip the day after tomorrow. How about I go visit you at home tomorrow?" the little girl said softly.
"Okay, okay!" Ruan Zhen was overjoyed, "Xiaoqi, Third Grandpa knows a particularly delicious restaurant and will take you to have a feast tomorrow!"
After making an appointment for tomorrow, Ruan Qi smiled and hung up the phone.
Nie Heng: "Senior sister, what if I meet that Ruan Chunhua when I go to your third grandfather's house tomorrow?"
"You're such a silly little kid," the little girl patted him on the head, "Tomorrow is Wednesday, she goes to work."
"That's right." Coyotito laughed stupidly, with two small dimples showing on both sides of his cheeks.
…
The next morning, Ruan Qi changed her clothes and went downstairs with her bag.
Ruan Munan saw her dressed as if she was going out and raised her eyebrows and asked, "Xiao Qi, where are you going?"
"Go to Third Grandpa's house." The little girl put on her coat. "Yesterday Third Grandpa called me and said he missed me."
Ruan Munan said softly, "Yes", "Shall I give it to you?"
"No need, brother." Ruan Qi smiled at him, raised her little paw and shook the key, "I have little eyelashes."
Ruan Munan laughed softly.
Just then, the cell phone in the little girl's hand rang.
She looked down and saw a text message——
[Grandpa Three: Xiaoqi, Grandpa Three has come out of the house. You can come directly to the VIP Building.]
