Jiang Qiu's voice came from the side, waking up Ye Qi who was still thinking about it.
The latter was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly followed Jiang Qiu's footsteps and left the restaurant with his relatives.
It was already past nine o'clock in the evening.
Most of the group had a few drinks and called for a driver to go home.
Ye Qi's parents looked at Jiang Qiu and Ye Qi with unknown expressions, then looked at each other and smiled, their expressions as playful as they wanted.
Ye Qi stamped her feet, frowned slightly, and said angrily.
"Dad! Mom! What a look!"
Ye Qi's mother smiled and then said to Jiang Qiu.
"Lao Ye and I will go back and rest first. We are not as energetic as you young people."
"You two should go to bed early after playing for a while, and don't stay up late."
After saying that, Ye Qi's mother went directly to the car that had just arrived, opened the door, and sat in the back seat with Ye Qi's father.
He even nodded to the driver, signaling that he was ready to drive.
When Ye Qi saw this, he was stunned for a moment.
Then he said in shock, as if he suddenly woke up.
"What about me? I haven't gotten in the car yet!"
However, her shouting did not stop the car, and the driver seemed to be urging her to stop the car!
Ye Qi stared blankly at his Audi leaving.
At this time, the phone dinged.
But it was Ye Qi's father who sent a WeChat voice message.
"be safe."
Ye Qi was stunned instantly.
Jiang Qiu was also stunned.
This is... no need for Ye Qi?
Or maybe... the second elder is creating an independent space for him and Ye Qi?
Also pay attention to safety...
I'm afraid this is a bit profound.
Ye Qi turned around awkwardly and saw Jiang Qiu's handsome face in the night, and for a moment, her heart was in a state of confusion.
This was the first time that she saw her parents take the initiative to leave her outside the home.
And with another man!
What should we do? She has no such experience!
However, at this moment, a little girl with a sweet smile came forward, holding a small trailer with a large bouquet of red roses on it, and smiled at Jiang Qiu and Ye Qi.
"Brother, my sister is so beautiful. Do you want to buy a rose for her?"
Ye Qi's heart was beating wildly, and she subconsciously planned to explain that she and Jiang Qiu were not in that kind of relationship.
But Jiang Qiu took the lead and smiled at the little girl.
"Little sister, are you still out selling flowers so late?"
The little girl nodded obediently and stretched out her hand to point in the distance.
"My mother washes dishes there and doesn't get off work until ten o'clock. It's very hard for her. I sold all these roses so that I can help my mother relieve her stress."
Jiang Qiu couldn't help but feel a little moved. This little girl looked less than ten years old and was really sensible.
Ye Qi was also overflowing with sympathy, squatting down and speaking gently to the little girl.
"Then you're selling flowers alone outside, aren't you afraid of meeting bad people?"
Hearing this, the little girl immediately smiled brightly, puffed up her chest proudly and said.
"I'm not afraid! Because my dad will protect me!"
After saying that, he looked very proudly at the security booth at the entrance of the restaurant.
Jiang Qiu also cast his gaze, and met the kind eyes of a middle-aged man in the security booth.
The man nodded kindly to Jiang Qiu and Ye Qi and smiled honestly.
Seeing this scene, Jiang Qiu felt warm inside.
Although the little girl's father is just a small security guard in the Magic City, in the little girl's heart, he is a man who protects their whole family.
Jiang Qiu took out all the change he carried and stuffed it into the little girl's pocket, then picked up the large bouquet of delicate red roses.
"Hey, I bought all these roses! You don't need to change the money, just keep it to buy candies."
The little girl was stunned for a moment, then she looked anxious and said hurriedly.
"No! My parents said that we cannot accept charity from others. Although we are not rich, we still have dignity."
"Brother, if you want to help me, all you need to do is buy a rose."
Hearing this, Jiang Qiu couldn't help but give a thumbs up to the little girl's parents. This kind of education is really great!
Smiling and touching the hair on the top of the little girl's head, Jiang Qiu raised an eyebrow at Ye Qi who was standing beside him.
"What do you think this sister looks like?"
The little girl did it without thinking.
"Very beautiful! The most beautiful one I have ever seen, even prettier than the stars on TV."
Jiang Qiu smiled and nodded.
"Isn't that right?"
"How can a rose match such a beautiful sister? Of course I want all of them!"
The little girl was stunned, obviously not expecting Jiang Qiu's words.
Ye Qi also secretly blushed.
Because she didn't know whether Jiang Qiu's words were a kind explanation for the little girl to accept, or whether they were mixed with some real emotions.
But no matter which one it is, it is true that Jiang Qiu praised her for being beautiful.
What girl can refuse such kind words?
The little girl looked embarrassed, and her little mind was almost overloaded by Jiang Qiu's call.
Seeing this, Jiang Qiu laughed and said.
"Okay, don't think about it anymore. I've sold all your roses today. Go ahead and go to your dad's side until mom gets off work."
The little girl didn't know how to solve the problem of Jiang Qiu buying all the flowers, so she simply didn't solve it.
She knew that Jiang Qiu was definitely a good person, so she smiled sweetly and nodded.
"Well! Thank you, big brother!"
After saying that, she planned to run to her father, but Jiang Qiu called her from behind.
"etc."
The little girl turned her head in confusion.
But Jiang Qiu took out the brightest red one from a large bouquet of roses and handed it to the little girl. Jiang Qiu pointed at the middle-aged man in the security booth and laughed softly.
"This rose was given to you by your brother. Go and give it to your father. Tell him that you love him. Go quickly."
The little girl was confused. She looked up after being stunned for a moment, only to find that Jiang Qiu and Ye Qi had gone away.
Holding the rose in her hand, the little girl came to her father, the security guard. She held the rose high in her hands and smiled with two rows of big white teeth.
"Dad! Give it to you! I love you!"
The security guard who was on duty seriously was stunned for a moment, and a layer of mist subconsciously appeared in his eyes.
At this moment, his little angel was right in front of him, and the fatigue from working all day seemed to be completely cured by the little angel.
…………
Not far away, Jiang Qiu was holding a rose and looking at this scene with a smile.
Ye Qi was beside him, his eyes moving back and forth between the warm atmosphere of the security booth and Jiang Qiu's profile.
This was the first time she saw such a tender scene from Jiang Qiu.
This was also the first time I saw Jiang Qiu’s childlike, childlike hidden personality.
They had obviously left, but Jiang Qiu suddenly turned a corner and came back, just to hide aside and secretly watch the little girl laying flowers.
"Hey, this is for you."
When Ye Qi was in a daze, a burst of scent of roses suddenly came from the front, making her almost dizzy.
When she woke up, she saw Jiang Qiu holding roses in his hand, holding a large bouquet of beautiful and fragrant flowers in front of her.
Ye Qi looked at Jiang Qiu's face, and for a moment red clouds flashed across her pretty face.
"Really...really give it to me?"
Ye Qi spoke cautiously.
Jiang Qiu said naturally.
"Otherwise? I originally bought it for you."
Hearing this, Ye Qi's red lips pursed slightly, and the corners of her mouth curved into an arc that was difficult to detect.
He seemed to be chuckling in joy.
Taking the rose, Ye Qi whispered in a weak mosquito voice.
"Thank you... thank you."
Jiang Qiu smiled and nodded, secretly letting out a long sigh of relief.
Such a large bouquet of roses, estimated to contain hundreds of roses, is still a bit difficult to hold in your hands.
Since girls all like beautiful flowers, it would be better to just give them to Ye Qi.
Jiang Qiu waved his hand without leaving a trace and smiled at Ye Qi.
"How is it? Is it heavy?"
Ye Qi held a bouquet of roses, pursed her lips and smiled.
"not heavy."
This was given to her by Jiang Qiu, and how could such a beautiful rose be heavy?
Jiang Qiu nodded and smiled.
It’s okay if it’s not heavy…
…………
Because he had drunk some wine, Jiang Qiu didn't even drive the Volkswagen, but directly called a taxi on his mobile phone.
The online car-hailing driver arrived soon. Jiang Qiu greeted Ye Qi to get in the car, and the online car-hailing driver started immediately.
Ye Qi carefully placed the rose in the middle of the back seat and asked Jiang Qiu.
"Where are we going?"
Unexpectedly, Jiang Qiu smiled mysteriously and shook his head.
"You'll know when we get there."
An answer that meant no answer immediately made Ye Qi's brainstorm.
This is... where are we going?
In the middle of the night, a man and a woman alone...
Ye Qi's face turned red and her hands and feet became a little uneasy.
Jiang Qiu... wouldn't he be taking her to the hotel?
As soon as this idea was born, it developed rapidly and got out of control!
The point is, it’s very possible!
First of all, there was no problem at all with her parents. The two elders left on their own, leaving Ye Qi beside Jiang Qiu, and even said "pay attention to safety". Everyone knows this hint!
Then... Jiang Qiu praised her beauty again and gave her such a big bouquet of roses.
The words of roses are love.
Isn't this an expression of love?
Now Jiang Qiu took a taxi and took her to an unknown place...
All signs point to it!
Jiang Qiu is taking her to check out a room! It's very possible!
Ye Qi felt panicked when she thought of this!
So the question is, should we refuse?
After thinking for a long time, Ye Qi couldn't think of a reason.
Because Ye Qi had to admit that it was hard not to be moved by an outstanding man like Jiang Qiu, not to mention that she had spent time with Jiang Qiu day and night, so her inner emotions would only be greater than she imagined.
But...even if Ye Qi admits that she is attracted to Jiang Qiu.
Then go to the hotel now... is it too hasty?
After all, the relationship between the two has not been confirmed yet.
Ye Qi hesitated, and finally couldn't help but pinch the corners of his clothes with his hands, and asked in a low voice.
"Well...should we take some safety measures?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Ye Qi wished she could give herself a mouthful!
What are you talking about! Nonsense!
I originally planned to ask Jiang Qiu if this was too fast, but my brain suddenly twitched and she actually asked such embarrassing words!
Even the driver driving in front couldn't help but glance back through the rearview mirror.
Jiang Qiu was stunned for a moment, confused in his heart.
Security measures? What security measures?
He just took Ye Qi to have barbecue...
He had seen with his own eyes the fighting prowess of this girl Ye Qi. When she was in Sanyang City, she showed off a barbecue for several people by herself.
There were only relatives in the restaurant just now, and Ye Qi barely moved his chopsticks. He must still be hungry now, and Jiang Qiu himself didn't eat much either.
It's evening now, so it's perfect to have a barbecue!
As for the safety measures Ye Qi mentioned...
Jiang Qiu was a little confused.
With a thought, Jiang Qiu suddenly realized!
By the way! Ye Qi must have remembered the dangerous experience he had last time eating barbecue in Sanyang City.
At that time, Ye Qi was accosted by a drunken gangster, and Jiang Qiu even got into a fight, and the two almost got into trouble.
Hmm... It seems that eating barbecue at night is indeed dangerous, and some safety measures are needed.
Jiang Qiu thought for a while, but considering that this is a big city like the Magic City, the security work must be good, and his skills are pretty good, so there should be... no need to prepare extra safety measures.
Moreover, not every time you eat barbecue you will encounter danger.
Thinking of this, Jiang Qiu smiled nonchalantly and waved his hand.
"Need not!"
"No need for safety measures, don't worry. Things like last time won't happen again."
As soon as these words came out, there was silence in the car...
