Qin Heng sent three words: I want to see you.

Ji Qing clenched her phone tightly, held the wine glass in one hand, took a sip of wine, and replied to the message with the other hand holding the phone: I have gone to bed, I have to go on a business trip tomorrow.

Ding Dong, a message came in——

Why haven't I heard you mention it before? Wherever you go on a business trip, I will go with you.

Ji Qing: It’s not convenient for you to go to Yanjing City.

Qin Heng compromised and said: What time is your flight? I will take you to the airport.

Ji Qing: No, I’m with the business team.

Qin Heng knew her temper very well. He would never hold her back at work. He replied: Okay, then I'll wait for you to come back. Good night.

Ji Qing threw the phone aside.

While drinking, she looked outside the villa. Qin Heng stood there for a while and looked in this direction.

He stood quietly under the street light, reluctant to leave.

After a while, he got in the car and drove towards Courtyard No. 8.

……

The next morning, Qin Heng was about to call Ji Qing to ask her if she had boarded the plane, but he suddenly received a call from Huo Mingzheng.

"At home?" Huo Mingzheng was very frugal with his words.

Qin Heng stood up and walked to the bathroom, "Well, what's going on so early in the morning?"

"I don't seem to be feeling well."

Qin Heng frowned, "If I feel uncomfortable, then I feel uncomfortable. What do you mean by seem to feel uncomfortable?"

"I want to vomit."

Qin Heng squeezed toothpaste onto the toothbrush, "What else?"

"I still feel like throwing up."

Qin Heng suppressed his temper and said, "Let's go to the hospital for a checkup. Was it Fu Yan who asked you to make the call?"

Otherwise, Huo Mingzheng would not have called him just because of this level of discomfort.

When they arrived at the hospital, Huo Mingzheng found no problems after the examination, but he met Dr. Gu from the gynecology department, who asked Fu Yan to go for a check-up.

When the results came out, everyone was shocked.

Fu Yan is pregnant and Huo Mingzheng has morning sickness.

Qin Heng looked at Huo Mingzheng's face switching back and forth between gloomy and joyful, and said, trying not to laugh: ""

Huo Mingzheng glanced at him with a sharp look, "You've been promoted, and you're laughing at me?"

Qin Heng couldn't hold back the smile on his face, "Get out of my hospital right now."

After seeing Huo Mingzheng off, Qin Heng returned to the office. On the way there, he called Ji Qing, but her phone was turned off. According to the time, they should have arrived in Yanjing City.

Just as he was about to dial Ji Qing's phone number, the phone interface suddenly turned and a call came in. The caller ID showed Li Dongbai.

Qin Heng was anxious to contact Ji Qing. Li Dongbai asked all kinds of questions on the phone, trying to get first-hand gossip about Huo Mingzheng from him. Qin Heng hung up the phone in a hurry and gave him a bombshell news.

After controlling Li Dongbai for more than ten seconds, a laugh finally broke out from the other end of the line.

Qin Heng moved the phone away and hung up the call.

At this time, the cell phone rang again. He really wanted to scold Li Dongbai, but the caller ID showed: Uncle Ji.

He quickly picked up the phone and greeted gently, "Uncle Ji."

"Xiao Qin, are you home?"

Qin Heng was about to say that he was in the hospital, but then he thought that since Father Ji would ask this, he must have something to talk to him about, so he changed his words temporarily and said, "I'm driving and will be home soon."

As he spoke, he unbuttoned his white coat, took his car keys and left the office.

Two nurses passing by wanted to say hello to him, but he immediately made a gesture to keep quiet.

I just heard Father Ji say with a smile: "Okay, I'll come to your house later."

Qin Heng thought that it was just Ji's father who came to visit him and have a chat, most likely about him and Ji Qing. However, he didn't expect that in addition to Ji Qing and Ji Lin, all three elders of the Ji family showed up.

Sui Xing was so frightened by the scene that he dared not say a word.

Before Qin Heng could speak, he trotted forward and took the gift box brought by Ji's father and mother.

"Xiao Qin, you performed surgery on my mother before, and our family hasn't thanked you properly yet."

Qin Heng immediately went over to support Grandma Ji and said to Father Ji: "Uncle, you are too polite. It was Grandma Ji who was strong. I just did a small thing."

Ji's father thought to himself, he is worthy of being his son-in-law, what he said was very nice.

Grandma Ji was grinning from ear to ear, because it had to be her grandson-in-law.

Neither of them has told the other what they know yet. Both are thinking of waiting for the right time to release the bombshell news, shocking the others and scaring them to death.

Only Ji's mother was kept in the dark, and she was still thinking that it would be great if such an outstanding young man was her son-in-law.

Qin Heng invited the person into the house.

Grandma Ji was supported by him, leaning against him, and asked in a low voice: "Did you take down Qingqing's stomach?"

"Eighty percent." Qin Heng gave the old man a conservative answer.

Grandma Ji hissed, "No, wait for me to secretly teach you another dish."

"Can you take it down in one fell swoop?" Qin Heng teased the old man.

Grandma Ji affirmed: "Absolutely!"

At noon, Qin Heng invited the elders of the Ji family to have lunch at their home. He temporarily found a chef from the Northeast and cooked a large table of Northeastern dishes.

During the meal, Qin Heng and Ji's father drank a few glasses. After the meal, they arranged a car for him to accompany the elders of the Ji family back home.

After sending his elders home, Qin Heng did not take a car but walked back.

He took out his cell phone and called Ji Qing, wanting to tell her that Ji's father had invited him to his house for dinner and drinks next week.

However, Ji Qing did not answer the phone.

Sui Xing drove slowly beside him.

Qin Heng put his phone in his pocket and asked, "How's the investigation going on for the one I asked you to do a couple of days ago?"

Sui Xing shook his head. "Mr. Ji has been sick quite a lot in the past year and a half. He rarely went to the hospital before. Besides, there is no medical record for the incident you mentioned. I am still investigating further."

Qin Heng put his hands in his pockets.

A year and a half ago.

The earthquake in Chile happened a year and a half ago.

……

At the same time in Yanjing City.

Ji Qing looked at the caller ID on the phone screen and waited quietly for the call to automatically hang up.

The car stopped at the end of the alley.

Ji Qing got out of the car, walked towards a courtyard and rang the doorbell.

After a while, the door opened and a middle-aged man asked, "Who are you looking for?"

"Is this Doctor Cheng's house?"

The middle-aged man nodded. "But I'm sorry, the teacher doesn't see patients on weekends."

Ji Qing pressed the door, not letting the other party close it. "Please tell Doctor Cheng that I'm Ji Qing from South City, and I have something important to discuss with him."
