The little girl spoke with a smile, but Xi Jiu couldn't laugh at all.
He had never been so grateful to someone as he was now.
He was grateful to Grandpa Ruan, Grandma Ruan, and Nie Beilou. If it hadn't been for them, Ruan Qi might not have been born safely, and he wouldn't have met her.
Xi Jiu couldn't imagine a world without Ruan Qi.
Maybe it was hollow and cold like a zombie.
Xi Jiu closed his eyes, feeling infinite fear in his heart. He hugged the little girl tightly in his arms and kissed her gently on the top of her head.
Ruan Qi felt the man's affection and care. She squeezed his arm comfortingly and continued to talk about the past nineteen years ago.
"After being taken in by my grandparents, my father was raised in Qingyun Village for three months before he could barely get out of bed. During these three months, those with flame totems on their bodies never gave up looking for us, and even almost found Qingyun Village once.
Later, in order to avoid future troubles, Master erased all traces of our family and forged false information that my father fell into the river and died."
"After those people got the news of my father's death, they never appeared near Qingyun Village again. Our family also settled down."
"Later, after my father recovered from his injuries, he recognized his grandparents as his biological parents. From then on, my brother and I also changed our surname to Ruan."
Ruan Qi said she was a little thirsty. She sat up from the man's arms and reached for the water glass on the bedside table.
Xi Jiu immediately held down her little hand, raised his arm to take the water glass, and brought it to her mouth.
Ruan Qi bit her straw and drank half the cup. She burped with satisfaction and continued: "Although Master forged information about Dad's death, those people should have always been suspicious. Although they evacuated from Qingyun Village,
But they have been secretly investigating Dad’s whereabouts for these years. However, Master’s skills in forging information are very high, and they have never been able to find out.”
Hearing this, Xi Jiu was keenly aware that something was wrong.
He carefully recalled what the little girl said, and a trace of doubt flashed in his cold eyes——
What was Ruan's father's previous identity?
Why don't those people with fire totems let go after tracking them for twenty years?
Xi Jiu was wondering when Ruan Qi's voice sounded in her ears again.
"My parents have been anonymous for nearly twenty years, and they have been investigating how powerful those people are. If our family wants to return to the imperial capital openly, we must get rid of those people. The reason why we are looking for Alphat is because of the few days ago
Simon told me that old Alfat’s brother was killed by those people.”
Xi Jiu: "So, you want to cooperate with him?"
"Yes. The power of the Alfat family abroad cannot be underestimated, and they are a very good helper."
Xi Jiu thought for a moment and nodded slightly.
"Okay." He rubbed the little girl's head, "The baby can do whatever he wants. As long as I'm here, no one can hurt the father-in-law and mother-in-law."
Ruan Xiaoqi, who had just been thinking about how to kill people, turned red when he heard the words "father-in-law and mother-in-law".
She held her steaming little head and her tongue began to get knotted, "Jiujiu, you, you, you..."
"Huh?" Xi Jiu lowered his head in front of her, curled his thin lips and chuckled softly, "Baby, what should I do?"
The man's low laughter was extremely sexy, and Ruan Qi was almost overwhelmed by the rush of hormones.
The little girl was so ashamed that her peach blossom eyes seemed to be full of spring water.
She gently bit her pink lips, blushed and held it in for a long time before stammering out: "Yet, I'm not married yet, so I can't call you father-in-law or mother-in-law."
When Xi Jiu heard this, her handsome eyebrows raised coldly.
He stretched out his long arms, pulled the little girl into his arms forcefully, lowered his head and pecked her pink lips hard.
"Then baby, let's get married."
