Rebirth: What to do if you fall into a wolf's den
Chapter 188: Persuading to Return to China
It was late at night, and amidst the dimming lights of the city, a private room in a high-end club was still brightly lit. Fu Jingyan, Lu Nanxu and Xin Mujing sat together, the red wine in their glasses glowing alluringly under the light.
They chatted about everything from work trivia to daily life, with laughter and the sound of clinking glasses interweaving into one.
However, as the night deepened, the effects of alcohol began to show, and sleepiness quietly invaded everyone's nerves.
"No, I feel a little dizzy." Lu Nanxu was the first to put down the wine glass in his hand, and his eyes began to blur.
Fu Jingyan smiled. Although he was a little shaky, he still said with all his strength: "Yes, it's getting late. We should go back."
However, just as they finished their words, a sudden sleepiness made them lose the strength to get up.
Finally, the three decided not to force it anymore and casually lay down on the sofa in the box, letting the night and dreams surround them.
In the early morning, the first ray of sunlight quietly peeked into the box through the gap in the curtains.
Fu Jingyan opened his eyes first, only to feel a splitting headache and his body as if it had been crushed by a heavy object.
He struggled to sit up and found that Lu Nanxu and Xin Mujing beside him were also rubbing their eyes and waking up with painful expressions.
"Oh, this alcohol is really strong." Lu Nanxu groaned, trying to sober himself up.
Xin Mujing smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Yeah, but there's nothing we can do. We still have work to do today."
The three of them looked at each other, and without further ado, they stood up and walked towards the lounge in the box tacitly.
There, they hurriedly completed a simple cleansing. Although the physical discomfort had not completely dissipated, time was running out and they had to brace themselves and prepare to greet the new day.
"By the way, Ajing." Before leaving the box, Lu Nanxu suddenly stopped and said to Xin Mujing seriously, "Remember to send a message to Aqian and ask him to bring Yanyan back to China."
Xin Mujing nodded, indicating that he had made a note of it. He took out his cell phone and prepared to send a message on the way. Then, the three of them drove away in different directions.
On the way, Xin Mujing was typing on his phone while driving. Finally, he looked at the successfully sent message with satisfaction, and secretly prayed that Zheng Haoqian would see it and respond as soon as possible.
"I hope everything goes smoothly." Xin Mujing murmured to himself, then stepped on the accelerator and drove towards the company.
In a cozy villa in Country Y, Zheng Haoqian was sitting in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of his study, holding his mobile phone tightly in his hand. The message on the screen came from his good friend Xin Mujing. The content about Ji Yan's proposal to return to China made him fall into deep thought.
Outside the window, dappled sunlight sprinkled on the wooden floor, but it could not dispel the complex emotions in his heart.
"Yan Yan, is she willing?" Zheng Haoqian talked to himself, his mind flashing back to every detail of his reunion with Ji Yan, those warm and slightly shy times.
Although their relationship has been repaired, he is still a little nervous when it comes to returning home, especially to face Xin's father and mother.
At this moment, a crisp knock on the door broke the silence of the study. "Come in." Zheng Haoqian came back to his senses, with a hint of tenderness in his voice.
The door slowly opened, and a chubby little figure rushed in. It was Zheng Yuanhao. His arrival always brought endless laughter and vitality to this family.
"Dad, what are you busy with? Can you play with me?" Zheng Yuanhao ran to Zheng Haoqian, raised his little face, and his eyes sparkled with anticipation.
Zheng Haoqian put down his phone, bent down and picked up Zheng Yuanhao, gently placed him on his knees, and asked softly: "Xiaohao, why did you suddenly come to see Daddy? Is there something wrong?"
Zheng Yuanhao's little hands tightly grasped the corner of Zheng Haoqian's clothes, and his little face pressed against his chest, begging: "Dad, can you take me to find my mom? I miss her so much, and my little brother or sister, I want to see them too."
Ever since he recognized Ji Yan as his mother and learned that she was pregnant, Zheng Yuanhao's attachment to Ji Yan has deepened, and he can't wait to run to Fang's house every day.
Hearing Zheng Yuanhao's words, Zheng Haoqian couldn't help but feel a warm feeling in his heart, but it was soon replaced by a hint of jealousy.
"This little guy just sticks to his mom all day long." He secretly complained, but still tried to maintain a gentle smile on the surface.
In order to amuse Zheng Yuanhao, Zheng Haoqian pretended to be embarrassed and said, "Xiaohao, Daddy is really busy today and has a lot of work to do. I may not be able to accompany you to find mom."
When Zheng Yuanhao heard this, he immediately pouted and a hint of disappointment flashed in his eyes.
"But, Dad, I can go find Mom by myself. You can take me there and then come back to work!" He cleverly proposed a solution, his eyes flashing with anticipation again.
Seeing this, Zheng Haoqian secretly laughed in his heart. This little guy was becoming more and more difficult to fool.
He sighed deliberately and said, "Dad is really tired today and needs a good rest."
Unexpectedly, Zheng Yuanhao did not give up, he began to use his childish voice to persuade Zheng Haoqian with soft and hard words, sometimes promising not to make trouble, sometimes promising to be obedient.
Zheng Haoqian looked at the child's sincere eyes and his heart softened. Besides, he really needed to talk to Ji Yan about returning to China.
So, he nodded reluctantly and said, "Okay, since you are so good, Dad will go with you. But you have to promise me that you must be obedient."
When Zheng Yuanhao heard this, he immediately cheered. A bright smile bloomed on his little face. He pulled Zheng Haoqian's hand and ran out, as if he couldn't wait to see his mother and baby.
Zheng Haoqian looked at the child's excited figure and couldn't help but smile. He secretly decided in his heart that no matter what the future holds, he must work hard for this family and their common future.
