"Old Gao, if anything happens in the future, you can't keep it a secret from me anymore." If there's anything, we can face it together. We're husband and wife, do you know? " Tian Rongrui cut the apple into small pieces and fed it into his mouth. Her eyes were still red and swollen from crying.
From the time she had first heard her husband suffering from an incurable illness, to the time she had cried out over him, to the moment of peace and acceptance, it had only been a day and a night, but she had quickly gotten used to it.
Life and death were intertwined, but even if there was only a tiny bit of hope, he couldn't give up.
Every time Gao Hanwen went on a business trip, he would bring her along. She finally understood why he didn't even have time to go home and pack his luggage when he was in such a hurry a few times last year.
She was his wife. After so many years, it had always been him propping up the sky for her. She was very reliant on this man. The sky was falling now, but she couldn't fall. She would take good care of him for the rest of her life. Even if he left her first, she wanted him to see how strong she was. She wanted him to go with a peace of mind.
"Old partner, I'm sorry." Gao Hanwen apologized like a child who had done something wrong.
Qian Xun stood at the doorway, watching this scene. He wasn't sure if he should advance or retreat.
Tian Rongrong was the first to notice them. She remembered this child and the man by her side, and quickly called them in. When her gaze fell upon Ji Junyang's arm around his waist, she was slightly startled.
If she remembered correctly, this man was engaged to another woman and had also announced the marriage. However, this child, Qian Xun, how did he end up with her? She had to ask this old man about later. Looking at Gao Gao's expression, he should know something about them.
Qian Xun placed the flower in a vase on the bed. "Boss Gao, are you done?"
Gao Hanwen was in a much better mood than before, and he sounded full of energy, "Much better, don't treat me like a patient. Tomorrow, I can still appear in the company full of energy, and give you guys some advice."
Qian Xun laughed. "Yes, yes, yes. We are all listening attentively."
Tian Rongrong reprimanded from the side, "Only better, you're giving me more trouble now."
"So Auntie, you have to teach this naughty kid a lesson." Qian Xun added fuel to the fire.
"You called her auntie so intimate, but you called me so unconventional instead. It's not fair." Gao Hanwen protested. He didn't know if he would be able to see his biological daughter in his lifetime. When he was about to die, he would temporarily find a spiritual support in this child. He didn't know why, but he always felt close to this child.
Qian Xun laughed, "Yes, yes, yes. My dear Uncle Gao, you can rest in peace. If there is anything wrong with Angel, I will report to you in time."
He called out to his dear Uncle Gao, causing him to laugh out loud. Finally, he asked, "How's the case at Qin Mountains?"
Qian Xun said, "There hasn't been any progress yet, but don't worry, I've already contacted Captain He. If there's anything new, he'll inform us immediately."
Gao Hanwen sighed and said worriedly, "I was afraid that Qin Maoran would take revenge on the Angel. Back then, he was determined to get the Crown. Right now, his son has been killed by our Angel for no reason. Even if he doesn't make any move now, he is probably waiting for the opportunity to make a move and will make use of it.
Qian Xun also expressed his concern.
"He won't have the chance." Ji Junyang, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke up.
After leaving the hospital and looking at the endless streets, Qian Xun sat in the car and asked Ji Junyang, "Are you really helping Angel because of me?"
From Boss Gao, she learned of his verbal promise with him. He never easily promised, but if he did, he would do as he said.
Ji Junyang turned his head to look at her, and said coldly, "What do you think? "You think that I have nothing better to do after eating so much, but you still suspect that I have ill intentions towards angels."
Qian Xun didn't have that intention, but after hearing his words, he felt that if he asked such a stupid question, he would feel like a petty person.
"I didn't say that, it's just …"
"But what?"
"I'm touched, but I can't." He couldn't tell what it felt like, and in the end, he could only find two words to describe it.
Ji Junyang smiled and patted her head, "I'm just teasing you, you fool."
Qian Xun smashed his head on Ji Hao's shoulder, then leaned on him. "Teacher Ji, I am becoming more and more fond of your love and love. What should I do?"
"That's a good thing. I wish you could have more, Madam Ji." Ji Junyang's eyes lit up. He loved to pamper her. Seeing her happy appearance, it was as if he wanted to make up for the missing five years.
The little guy was probably hiding on the balcony, lowering his voice. He mysteriously said, "Mommy, you have to come back early today. Mommy Hai Yu brought back an unfamiliar uncle, so grandpa and grandma let him stay at home to eat."
Qian Xun was surprised for a moment, but soon realized that there was something wrong with Hai Yu. He quickly told Ji Junyang to drive the car to the Orange Garden.
Ji Junyang was unhappy and accused her of not keeping his word. "You promised to accompany me to eat dinner before returning."
"Alright, be good. At worst, I'll go to your place tomorrow night. Don't try to woo your daughter." Qian Xun kissed him on the cheek as if he was coaxing a child.
Ji Junyang mumbled, "Tomorrow night I will be on the plane."
"Ah?" You're on a business trip. " This news was rather sudden, and he hadn't mentioned it to her before. However, with his identity, flying all over the place wasn't anything strange.
"To Paris, for a week." In addition to his work, there was another very important matter that needed to be done. It was related to her, but he kept it a secret from her for the time being. He wanted to give her a surprise.
"So long." Who said that it would be a day of absence? It was as though three years had passed.
"That's right. We won't be able to meet for a week, yet you aren't even willing to accompany me for a bit longer?" Ji Junyang wanted to strike while the iron was hot. He originally wanted to throw this matter out during dinner time, so he left her here to accompany him for the night.
"What do you mean you can't see me? The communication system is so advanced right now. You can call me, send me e-mail, and I'll send you an overseas video." She too was counting.
Alright, he was defeated by her, so all she said was for him to send her back now. Sigh, what could he do? The person who tried to rob her was her precious baby, and also his.
Qian Xun returned home. The moment he opened the door, he saw Ji Junxiang sitting on his sofa, dressed in Korean robes and wearing a spring hat. He was so shocked that the keys dropped from his hands.
Why was he here? Was that stranger An An An was talking about? She was afraid that if he called her sister-in-law, she would frighten everyone in the room.
"Mommy, you're back." Anthea's calves flew up to her, and she wrapped her arms around her neck as she bent to pick up the key.
Qian Xun picked up his daughter and asked before Ji Junxiang could say anything, "Is this the uncle you are talking about?"
"Yes." The little guy nodded vigorously.
Qian Xun didn't give him a chance to speak. He turned his head to the woman sitting on the sofa, who was constantly changing channels. "Hey, Hai Yu, why don't you introduce your friend?"
Ji Junxiang smiled at her. As expected, this sister-in-law and her family still didn't know of his brother's existence. Moreover, they had thoughts of avoiding him.
Hai Yu tried her best to be clear, "I have nothing to do with him."
"It's alright. You brought him back for dinner?" Qian Xun smiled dubiously.
"He's just a scoundrel, ignore him." Hai Yu snorted.
Mother Wen came out of the kitchen. "No matter how you say it, you are always a guest. Qianlou, give your father a call and ask him to come back for dinner. You should close the restaurant earlier today."
Right now, the two elders took turns to guard the shop and sell some daily necessities. If the business opened, they planned to hire a helper. Now that there was a special guest at home, although Hai Yu mocked him, she could tell that there was something unusual about it. Naturally, she hoped that the old man would come back to visit.
The life of these two children had always been a part of their hearts. Although he kept saying that he would do as they pleased, in the end, he still hoped that they could find a reliable target.
Anthea rushed to make a phone call.
Ji Junxiang's gaze followed her as he turned around. This smart daughter of his big brother, whom he had missed out on the last time he went to the kindergarten, was actually a little ghost after spending so much time with her all day. His eyes were filled with ideas.
After Father Wen came back, Ji Junxiang helped to set up the tableware. He called Uncle and Auntie Wen by their names, making the two old men laugh. He didn't mention anything about Ji Junyang, nor did he address her as sister-in-law. He merely smiled at her from time to time with a profound look in his eyes.
Hai Yu and he sat opposite each other. Wen father and mother thought that he was interested in Hai Yu. She asked for her name, asked for her age, asked for her job, asked for her family.
He said his name was Yang Yu.
Qian Xun almost blurted out. 'Aren't you called Ji Junxiang?' In the end, he still held himself back. Looking at Hai Yu, she didn't seem to be clear about him, as if it had nothing to do with her.
He said he was twenty-three years old.
Mother Wen then said, "It's alright, third year, carry the gold bricks."
"Yes, yes," he said, squinting at Hai Yu's face.
Hai Yu almost slammed the table. Qian Xun was holding back his internal injuries.
He said he was a painter.
Ji Junyang had mentioned this to her.
He said that his father had passed away five years ago. His family had a mother, and on top of her were his brother and his second sister. His second sister had designed clothes, and his brother had started a company.
Ji Junxiang was the first to instill some information into her parents, since no one else could understand what he meant.
For this meal, Hai Yu ate very gloomily, and Qian Xun was extremely unnatural.
The three of them had their own thoughts.
Ji Junxiang generously praised, "Auntie, your culinary skills are comparable to a level 1 chef. It's really delicious."
The happiest thing about Mother Wen was the result of being busy in the kitchen. Some people were eating their food with relish, while others continued to give him food. "Then let's eat more and come over often when you're free."
"Sure, sure." He didn't hold back and proudly winked at Thousand Sunsets and Hai Yu.
In her heart, Hai Yu thought that if he dared to come again, she would reward him with another bottle of wine, causing his head to blossom, causing her death, ruining her children, and tarnishing her reputation.
Ji Junxiang took his leave after the final round. Mother Wen told Hai Yu to send him off, while Hai Yu snorted and went into her bedroom, "I'm not free. I have my own legs, so how do I get here?"
At the price of taking him home for a meal, she had exchanged the freedom of the rest of the ten-day agreement. After the meal, his relationship with her ended here and he was now a passerby.
Qian Xun stood up and said, "I'll send you off."
In the elevator, she stared at Ji Junxiang, "What are you trying to do?"
