Aunt Zhou bent down to fetch new cotton shoes for the guests.

The young man stood upright by the door, groping to close the umbrella, and the dark blue umbrella was retracted, revealing his cool and handsome face.

Warm remarks.

Qin Ning couldn't help raising the corners of his lips.

He really knew this guest.

Mr. Ji was very happy to see him, and said: "At the birthday party last time, something like that happened, which made Wen Ci have a bad memory. I felt very sorry, so I invited him to my house for dinner."

Qin Ning said, "Grandpa Ji, you don't have to feel guilty, I think Wen Ci won't mind."

When Ji Yingxian in the living room heard this, he felt a little upset, and said it as if you knew him well.

Wen Ci's vision was obstructed, but his hearing was quite keen. He followed the sound with his eyes.

"Mr. Kitty?"

He couldn't see clearly, but he seemed to be able to find Qin Ning's direction precisely.

Wen Ci was familiar with Qin Ning's voice.

His pale amber pupils looked at Qin Ning, meeting Qin Ning's gaze inexplicably.

Qin Ning nodded, and then remembered that he couldn't see it, so she replied "It's me".

Mr. Ji smiled heartily, his chest heaving, "Mr. Cat? It's really interesting to call you young people hahahaha."

Qin Ning said: "He didn't know my name before, so he used a nickname."

Mr. Ji said, "It's quite cute."

Qin Ning smiled, feeling a little helpless.

It is inconvenient to use a crutch for the blind at home, so Wen Ci folded it and put it on the counter in the entrance, Aunt Zhou helped him to walk, Wen Ci had a handsome face, with a slight smile on his eyebrows and eyes.

When he got closer, he nodded towards Mr. Ji, "Grandpa Ji, good evening."

He couldn't focus his eyes, and when he looked over, he didn't focus on Mr. Ji.

Mr. Ji laughed a few times, "My good boy, come on, let's sit in the living room, dinner will be ready later."

He turned his head and said to Aunt Zhou: "Xiao Zhou, go and get ready, we can have dinner."

Aunt Zhou smiled and nodded, "Okay, wait a moment."

After she finished speaking, she happily entered the kitchen.

Ji's mother brought out a freshly sliced ​​fruit platter from the kitchen, she put it on the coffee table, and asked Qin Ning and Wen Ci to eat.

Ji Yingxian usually doesn't like to eat fruit the least, but today he wanted to eat some for no reason, so he took the lead in piercing a few sweet oranges.

He leaned back on the single sofa and ate slowly, but his eyes were fixed on the two people sitting next to each other with a cold expression.

When the two got closer, his brows became tight.

Qin Ning tasted a piece of white pear, saw that Wen Ci next to him didn't move, thought it was inconvenient for him, so he tied a piece of white pear with a fruit stick.

He handed it to Wen Ci, "It's very sweet, try it."

Ji Yingxian frowned, and the sweet orange in his mouth suddenly lost its fragrance.

It tasted like chewing wax, but now it is no different from chewing rubber.

He threw the fruit picks away and simply stopped eating.

Ji's father was coming back from the outside, and seeing Ji Yingxian wasting fruit, he seemed to have found a breakthrough.

He sullenly accused, "If you don't like fruit, don't eat it. If you eat half of it, throw it away. Who is used to you and wait."

Ji Yingxian didn't pay attention at all, and played with his mobile phone with his head down, turning a deaf ear to it.

Father Ji: "..."

He went upstairs angrily with an expression of "Nizi, you are so mad at me".

Mr. Ji is not surprised. When did the father and son confront each other? Since the kidnapping that year, his grandson has never had a good look at his father.

He sighed helplessly.

Wen Ci next to him couldn't see, but could hear clearly, eating white pears silently, pretending he was deaf.

Qin Ning had read the original work, and knew that there was a grudge between the Ji family and his son, but he didn't expect that Ji Yingxian didn't even bother to pretend to be superficial.

But according to Ji Yingxian's character, it's strange that he pretended to be a whitewash.

Ji Yingxian wanted to divert his attention, took his mobile phone, and swiped through the circle of friends, just in time to swipe the picture sent by Shen Jianxi.

He hesitated for a moment with his fingers.

Finally, click on.

In the photo, Shen Jianxi grinned very silly, and the person behind him, with his back slightly to Shen Jianxi, was sitting upright, with a fair and long neck, a slightly exposed side face with graceful and soft lines, and soft black hair.

From this perspective, the two people seem to be leaning against each other.

To be precise, it was like Shen Jianxi leaning on Qin Ning's shoulder affectionately.

An eyesore.

What a bloody eyesore.

Ji Yingxian frowned, feeling very uncomfortable, turned off the phone and threw it on the sofa.

He didn't pay attention to the distance between the two at all. That kind of spatial distance is completely unreliable, and it's obviously just a misplacement.

However, Boss Ji has become so angry that he has no time to observe carefully.

He was angry at himself, and when he looked up, he saw Qin Ning smiling slightly at Wen Ci, very gentle.

It was different from Qin Ning's cold and polite smile at him.

Very sincere.

Ji Yingxian frowned.

The more he watched, the more uncomfortable he became.

At this time, Qin Ning suddenly turned his head.

The two looked at each other suddenly.

Qin Ning was taken aback, then turned away silently.

Ji Yingxian didn't seem to like to see him go back to Ji's house, and from the moment he entered the door, he had a cold face the whole time.

Qin Ning didn't want to conflict with him.

Ji Yingxian frowned deeply, what does turning the head mean?Can't even look at him impatiently?

The corners of his mouth curled down, very unhappy.

Aunt Zhou just came out with dishes at this time, and she greeted everyone with a smile.

"Dinner is ready."

Afterwards, the group sat down in the restaurant.

private hospital.

He Linghan saw Li Wei tiptoe back to the ward, and closed the door.

"came back?"

Li Wei returned to him, "No, Wang Hai isn't there either."

He Linghan nodded, but said nothing.

Li Wei looked at his face, he didn't look angry, and he didn't look like he was going to trouble Mr. Qin.

Why did the boss want to find Mr. Qin?

There are countless question marks in Li Wei's mind.

He Linghan didn't seem to have any plans to speak again, he looked down at the laptop, his eyes stopped on the blue and white page, and kept browsing.

Li Wei finally couldn't help being curious.

"Boss, what can you do with Mr. Qin?"

He Linghan raised his head, his eyes reflecting the blue light of the screen were deep and mysterious, and he couldn't see any emotion.

Li Wei scratched his head, "Boss?"

He Linghan leaned back on the sofa and stared at Li Wei well.

Li Wei was terrified by him, and he was afraid that He Linghan's next sentence would be "deduction of wages".

He hurriedly changed his words, and said with a strong desire to survive: "Boss, I just asked casually, there is no other meaning, really, you have to believe—"

"Do you like candy?"

Li Wei: "Huh?"

He Linghan asked: "Do you like sweets?"

Li Wei: "???"

He looked at He Linghan in a daze, completely unable to understand why his mind suddenly jumped out.

After two seconds.

Li Wei said hesitantly, "It's... alright?"

He Linghan didn't speak any more, just lowered his head and continued to work on the computer.

Li Wei was trembling, for a moment he thought the boss was going to give him candy.

The next second, his phone beeped.

He Linghan said: "The list of brands has been sent to you, and I will buy all the candies on it tomorrow."

Li Wei didn't know where to open the WeChat file.

Good guy, there are probably a hundred candy shops here, all of which are high-end brands, the aristocrats of sugar.

To buy so much sugar, is the boss out of his mind? ? ?

He Linghan ignored his shocked expression and continued to give instructions.

"Taste it before you buy it. Don't be sweet and greasy, don't taste strange."

He paused, seemingly in thought.

"Also, focus on the strawberry flavor."

Li Wei: "???"

Boss, what kind of stimulus is this? ? ?

Boss, wake up! !

Li Wei tried to save him, "Boss, have you encountered any problems?"

So Yazi who is not very smart.

He Linghan stared at him coldly, "Don't you understand?"

The tone implied displeasure, as well as danger.

Li Wei nodded, "Okay, boss."

Quarter restaurant.

During dinner, no one spoke.

Everyone enjoyed the dinner quietly. Aunt Zhou is very good at cooking. The dinner is a Thai meal with a lot of seafood, most of which have been processed without manual work.

But a small part needs to be manipulated, and Wen Ci is a bit inconvenient to eat.

Sitting next to him, Qin Ning saw that he didn't touch the shellfish, so she leaned closer and asked, "Wen Ci, do you need my help?"

Ji Yingxian, who was opposite Qin Ning, raised his eyes, his face was sinking like water.

The old man Ji who was seated in the seat looked at him calmly, put it in his eyes, smiled faintly at the corner of his mouth, and ate his meal in silence.

Ji's father and Ji's mother were sitting next to each other, eating quietly, and Aunt Zhou was drinking tom yum soup, none of the three of them noticed Ji Yingxian raised his eyes briefly.

Opposite the dining table.

Wen Ci couldn't hear what Qin Ning said clearly, so he leaned closer.

"Ok?"

Qin Ning explained and repeated it again.

Wen Ci smiled, but before he could answer, a slender arm suddenly came between the two of them, pushing them away forcibly, and placed them on the bone china dinner plate.

On the wrist of that arm was a silver-black watch.

Before the two of them could react, the dinner plate in front of Wen Ci was suddenly lifted.

Qin Ning turned around in surprise, and bumped into a pair of beautiful gray-blue pupils.

Ji Yingxian looked down at him, his handsome face was expressionless, and said, "What are you looking at, I'll peel him off, you don't need it."

Qin Ning said "Oh" and made room.

It was he who crossed the line, forgetting that the real hero was sitting opposite.

Qin Ning sat back peacefully.

Ji Yingxian slowly raised his other hand, and put one hand on Wen Ci's shoulder, his bright eyebrows and eyes contained a shuddering coldness.

"Wenci, this shellfish tastes good, you should eat more."

Ji Yingxian had a lot of strength in his palm, Wen Ci frowned slightly, and tilted his head towards the left shoulder.

He can't see, but his other senses are sharp.

Qin Ning's line of sight was blocked by Ji Yingxian, he couldn't see Wen Ci's expression clearly, he only heard Wen Ci's voice express his thanks in a cold voice.

"Thank you."

Qin Ning watched Ji Yingxian bow his head and talk to Wen Ci, the two looked very close.

The original picture appeared in his mind for a moment.

【Ji Yingxian stands in a high-rise building overlooking all living beings, and the traffic is constantly flowing under his feet. Wen Ci stands behind him peacefully, watching him.At this moment, Ji Yingxian turned his head, and the two of them met their eyes and smiled at each other. 】

At this time, in the last paragraph of the epilogue, Mr. Cucumber didn't write a follow-up, and Qin Ning didn't have the chance to watch the episode.

Afterwards, Ji Yingxian stood in the middle to handle the shells, without any intention of moving his position.

Qin Ning was forced to move his seat, and when Ji Yingxian finished dealing with it, there was almost two people between Qin Ning and Wen Ci.

He left gracefully, without any guilt for affecting others, his eyebrows and eyes were flying, and he seemed to be in a good mood.

Qin Ning thought to himself, sure enough, contacting Wen Ci made Ji Yingxian very happy.

After dinner, several people sat in the living room and chatted.

When Ji's mother mentioned the piano at home, it was quite a pity, "My family Ying Xian also learned it for a while when he was a child, but he didn't play the piano when he grew up, and the grand piano was all dusted."

Wen Ci smiled softly, "Auntie, if you don't mind, can you let me try?"

Ji's mother responded very happily, "Of course, it's a great honor for a world-renowned pianist to play in my house."

Wen Ci stood up carefully and walked over with Aunt Zhou's support.

Aunt Zhou lifted the cloth that covered the dust, and carried the seat over for Wen Ci.

After thanking you warmly, he sat down with his hands on the piano.

He tried to play a few keys to feel the tone, and then turned to the living room.

"Want to be together?"

Wen Ci's eyes did not fall on a specific person.

But Qin Ning knew that he said this to himself.

Recently, they occasionally practice piano together in the music room. Wen Ci taught Qin Ning several pieces of music, and he could barely keep up.

Qin Ning turned his head and glanced at Ji Yingxian, his eyes were closed, his expression was calm, and he couldn't see any joy or anger.

Sensing Qin Ning's gaze, he Xu Ran raised his eyelids to see that Qin Ning just turned his head.

Ji Yingxian stared at Qin Ning's slightly pointed jaw, his face was uncertain.

Qin Ning hesitated and nodded, "Okay."

Ji's mother was pleasantly surprised: "Ningning, can you also play?"

A hint of embarrassment appeared on Qin Ning's face, "Recently, Wen Ci taught me some things in my spare time, but I don't seem to have much talent, and I'm a slow learner."

Mother Ji smiled and urged, "Go, go, I just want to listen hahaha."

Qin Ning said "hmm", took a chair, and sat down next to Wen Ci.

Wen Ci still fumbled for Qin Ning's hand, placed it on the keys, and quickly let go.

A gentle little move, in Ji Yingxian's eyes, was particularly eye-catching.

Hold and hold!

If you play the piano, you can play the piano, what kind of hands do you hold, what can two big men have to hold, tired and crooked!

His eyes gradually became stern.

In the living room, the melodious music flowed through the fingertips of Qin Ning and Wen Ci. It was pleasant and pleasant to the ear, making one relax wholeheartedly.

The family is enjoying the wonderful music.

The "boom" sounded, abruptly disrupting the harmony of this piano piece.

Everyone looked at the noise maker in unison.

Ji Yingxian stood at the door holding Hey Hey, said "I'm going to walk the dog" with a cold face, and then closed the door with a snort.

Ji's mother belatedly realized that her dog-tempered son seemed a little... unhappy?

but why?

She couldn't figure it out.

Ji's father next to him immediately sank his face, and this naughty son was going to piss him off.

Elder Ji took it calmly, took a sip of the health-preserving tea, and if you observed carefully, you could see his suppressed smile.

Qin Ning and Wen Ci had no choice but to stop playing and looked over in confusion.

Ji's mother signaled that nothing happened, and asked them to continue.

Qin Ning and Wen Ci nodded, and continued to play the second half.

outside the villa.

Ji Yingxian took a few deep breaths to adjust his mentality.

Who does Qin Ning hold hands with, and who holds his hand, what does it matter to him?

He thought so in his heart, but his eyes tilted his head uncontrollably, looking at the floor-to-ceiling windows of his living room.

Snow is flying outside the window, covered in silver.

By the floor-to-ceiling windows, two silhouettes are sitting together very well, and the soft notes seem to embellish the warm atmosphere.

The shorter young man suddenly raised his hand, stroking/stroking the other young man's cheek, his movements were slow and gentle.

Ji Yingxian's pupils shrank suddenly, and he pulled the leash tightly.

Hehe was suddenly grabbed by force, slipped and fell on all fours.

It jumped up and bit the rope unhappily.

Ji Yingxian took a deep breath and forcibly turned his head.

He buttoned the hood of his sweatshirt and flicked the leash.

Hehe sensed his instructions, and instantly rushed out like an arrow from the string.

Ji Yingxian ran after it.

Qin Ning put down his hand, wiped it off, and said, "You have drips of sauce on your face."

Wen Ci smiled slightly, "Thank you, Aning."

Qin Ning was slightly stunned, and said to himself, this title is a bit intimate, Ji Yingxian won't be angry when he hears it, right?

This delay, Wen Ci thought he didn't mind, so he didn't change his mind.

After playing the piano, it was not too early, and Wen Ci didn't stay long, so Mr. Ji asked the driver to take Wen Ci home.

After Wen Ci left, Mr. Ji waved to Qin Ning.

"Xiao Ning, come here with Grandpa."

Qin Ning nodded, and took the elevator to the second floor with Mr. Ji, and they entered the study together.

After taking his seat, Mr. Ji looked at Qin Ning and asked something.

"Xiao Ning, tell Grandpa Ji honestly, did you get back the inheritance and Shuangqin by yourself?"

Qin Ning had already anticipated what he was going to say. Ever since old man Ji asked him to go back to Ji's house for dinner, he knew that old man Ji had something to say to him.

Qin Ning didn't hide it either, and he couldn't hide this matter if he wanted to.

He said, "Yes, I brought it back a few days ago."

Mr. Ji seemed to let out a long sigh of relief.

He fiddled with the globe in the study, and the sphere printed with maps of various countries turned slowly.

Grandpa Ji said: "Xiao Ning, Grandpa Ji knows that you have grown up and has many ideas, but before you want to do these things, Grandpa Ji hopes that you can ask Grandpa Ji for help if you have any difficulties."

"You have no fate with Ying Xian. Grandpa Ji understands that you can't force it, but this does not affect Grandpa Ji's treatment of you as his own grandson. Grandpa Ji knows exactly who Qin Jiaming is and what the other brothers and sisters are. Deal with them alone."

Mr. Ji sighed.

"Grandpa Ji is really afraid that they will bully you. They don't treat you as a relative at all, they just want to suck blood from you."

Qin Ning sat down next to Mr. Ji, gently patted the back of his hand, and comforted him: "Grandpa Ji, you also said that I have grown up, and there are some things that I need to face alone. Everything depends on you, and I will succeed." what."

"I don't want to be anyone's vassal, and I don't want to rely on anyone. I want to grow, be strong, and be independent. I am grateful for everything you have given me, but this is something I should face and solve alone. I should not be burdened you."

Hearing this, Mr. Ji couldn't help getting tears in his eyes.

At this moment, he realized that the little boy beside him had grown up.

Grandpa Ji wiped his eyes, "Xiao Ning, Grandpa Ji is your backing here. If you have any difficulties, you can go to Grandpa Ji. Even if Grandpa Ji is not there, you can still go to Uncle Ji, or that bastard."

Saying that, old man Ji changed his words again, "Forget it, that bastard Ji Yingxian doesn't count on it, you can just find your Uncle Ji."

Qin Ning said "Yes", in response to the words of the old man next season.

While the two were talking upstairs, the door downstairs opened from the outside.

Ji's mother was eating pears, and it was very strange to see Ji Yingxian leading Hehe into the door.

"I usually walk for an hour, why did I come back in less than 10 minutes today?"

Ji Yingxian said, "Hey, I want to come back."

A certain black back who was leaning on the door frame, desperately unwilling to come in: "..."

Ji's mother glanced at Hehe, who obviously didn't have enough fun, and shook her head helplessly, thinking that her son hated snow and was forced to turn back.

Ji Yingxian changed into cotton slippers, and took a look at the grand piano in the living room.

"Where is the person?"

Ji's mother was puzzled and asked, "Who are you asking?"

Ji Yingxian's expression was unnatural, "I'll ask Grandpa."

Ji's mother said, "I went upstairs with Xiaoning."

Ji Ying looked at the stairs, but he didn't move his feet, and asked Wen Ci's whereabouts again.

Ji's mother said, "the driver took him home."

"Where is Qin Ning?"

"The old man let him stay overnight."

Ji Yingxian said "oh", and took Heihe to the kennel to lock him up without saying a word, and went upstairs.

Ji's mother looked at his back and said to herself, why did the silly son's mood suddenly change for the better?

When Ji Yingxian went upstairs, he happened to meet Qin Ning who was going downstairs.

Qin Ning glanced at him, lowered his eyes slightly, and made way sideways.

Ji Yingxian went upstairs without looking sideways.

The two passed by.

Qin Ning turned around silently and went downstairs.

Ji Yingxian walked a few steps, tilted his head slightly, and saw Qin Ning disappear around the corner from the corner of his eye.

He returned his gaze and went upstairs to his room. When he passed by the study, old man Ji came out.

He said: "Xiao Ning wants to go back to Qin's house. I just gave him the key. It's dark outside and the road is slippery. You go with him."

Ji Yingxian: "?"

Mr. Ji: "What are you doing in a daze, you don't want to? Then I'll let—"

Before he finished speaking, Ji Yingxian turned around and went downstairs.

Mr. Ji laughed helplessly, "This kid is always duplicity, I don't know who he looks like."

As he spoke, he looked back at an oil painting on the wall of the study.

The oil painting depicts an exotic beauty with gray-blue pupils as beautiful as jewels.

"Am I right?"

Qin Ning came out of Ji's house and walked slowly towards Qin's house.

Mr. Ji handed him an old key, saying that the key was left to him by Mr. Qin.

The Qin family is an old house with an attic.

Mr. Ji said that there is a secret compartment in the attic, which Mr. Qin left for him, and asked him to hand it over to Qin Ning when he could really be on his own.

But now, Mr. Ji thinks the time is right.

Qin Ning gripped the cold old key tightly in her palm, feeling very heavy in her heart.

This key is for the original owner.

Unfortunately, it was too late, the original owner had already left, replaced by a self from another world.

Qin Ning sighed lightly, then turned to look at Qin's house which was nearby.

He opened the door, slightly surprised.

The door was not locked.

Qin Ning suppressed his doubts and entered the courtyard.

The lawn is very clean, and everything about Qin Jiaming's family has disappeared from memory.

Walking to the door, the room was completely dark.

Qin Ning was not afraid of ghosts and monsters, so he walked in slowly, took the flashlight of his mobile phone at the entrance, and looked for the switch.

He was groping lightly on the wall, not paying attention to his feet.

Suddenly.

Qin Ning was tripped by something that seemed to be a steel pipe, and he suddenly leaned forward, seeing that he was about to crash into the invisible darkness.

Sudden.

His hand was tightly held by a big warm palm, and then he was gently pulled by a strong force, and his back suddenly hit his strong chest.

Qin Ning turned his head.

A pair of deep blue eyes broke into the field of vision.

It's Ji Yingxian.

Ji Yingxian held Qin Ning's hand, the palm felt warm and delicate, not like a hand, but like a piece of clean suet jade.

My heart skipped a beat.

There was only one thought on his mind.

So fucking delicate.
