"There will be someone to take care of them. Mister Shen, don't worry. They are very smart."
With a dark expression, he watched her leave. The office door was cut off from Qiao Xi's high-pitched voice. She took the elevator down.
Just as she stepped out of the elevator, she accidentally bumped into Shen Ye Ling. Thinking of what Shen Ye An had said, she subconsciously pursed her lips.
Shen Yiling noticed her tiny movements and lifted the glasses on the bridge of her nose. "Is Miss Qiao off work?"
"Mm, CEO Shen is the same?"
"Go down and get yourself a cup of coffee."
She was a little curious about Shen Ye Ling. Since they were both the successors of the Shen family, the young master of the Shen family was much more low-key compared to Shen Ye An. He would even personally head there to buy a cup of coffee instead of sending his assistant over.
Furthermore, someone who could make Shen Yeyan worry for him would definitely not be as simple as he looked on the surface.
Qiao Xi was just a nobody. He didn't want to get involved in too much of the Shen family's affairs. He hastily said goodbye and jogged to the door.
With a sharp gaze at the woman in the taxi, the corner of Shen Ye Ling's mouth curled up into a mocking smile as he turned around and went upstairs.
Qiao Xi called Xu Yicheng and instructed the driver to go to the hospital.
She got off the train and waited by the roadside. After a while, she saw Xu Yi Cheng running out of the hospital door and standing in front of her while gasping for breath. "Sorry, Xi Xi, I came late. I made you wait."
He left on the night after their last date and made his girlfriend wait for him again today. Feeling extremely sorry, Qiao Xi comforted him and said, "It's fine, let's go."
"Hmm, let's find a place to take a look."
This was the first time that Qiao Xi had fallen in love, so he didn't have much experience. His face was slightly red as he walked by his side.
Xu Yicheng quietly used his phone to buy two tickets. The exhibition was right next to the hospital. He walked past two streets and happened to be on the way to talk to her.
"How's your job these days?"
"Not bad, I'm sure you're not busy. Come back for the weekend."
"No, you know, that's what it is to be a doctor."
"Well, your childhood dream was to be a doctor?"
Xu Yicheng nodded. "My parents are both doctors, and so are my grandparents."
Although he had agreed to his pursuit, Qiao Xi knew nothing about the circumstances of his family. At that time, they weren't even in the same department, much less had heard of any gossip about him.
"So you're a medical family, you've been hearing about it since you were young." Qiao Xi nodded thoughtfully.
"Although I'm busy at work, don't worry, I won't ignore you." Xu Yicheng's expression suddenly turned serious as he looked at her sincerely.
Even the hand that hung at her side was held by him. The man's palm was warm and his hands were wrapped around it. Under the sun, Qiao Xi's face was flushed.
"Yes, I believe you."
After saying that, he took a few steps forward and said, "Don't just stand there. Let's go."
"Alright."
Xu Yicheng took her to see the art exhibition. Qiao Xi had learned to paint when he was young, but he didn't persist because raising two children at home was really difficult and his parents' wages weren't high.
In order to let his sister, Qiao Yang, study piano, learning piano at that time of the year wasn't cheap. Plus, buying a piano wasn't a small amount either. Thus, Qiao Xi's dance lessons were also suspended.
Now that she thought about it, she'd given up so much for her sister, only to end up like this. She couldn't help but feel a bit disheartened.
Qiao Xi's nose suddenly turned sour. He let out a sigh of relief as he held back the liquid in his eyes and continued walking with Xu Yi Cheng.
There were a lot of people who came to see the exhibition, most of them with their children. It was very lively, full of chirping voices. Xu Yicheng walked behind her and looked at her slim hands hanging by her side.
They had only been together for a few days. This intimate action made Qiao Xi a little uncomfortable. His body stiffened for a few seconds, but he didn't pull out his hand this time.
The two of them watched the exhibition for more than an hour, then went to the coffee shop for a while. When they came out, they prepared to go to the opposite side to eat. They stood at the intersection, waiting for the red light.
Li Ran drove through the traffic on the main road of the city center and accidentally saw Qiao Xi standing on the zebra crossing.
"Mister Shen, Miss Qiao is by the roadside."
Even without his reminder, Shen Yeyan had already seen Qiao Xi and the young man standing beside her. They were talking and laughing when he suddenly pulled out his phone with a dark expression.
His phone buzzed in his pocket. When Qiao Xi saw that it was Shen Ye An, he decided to mute his phone.
Finding her at this time was definitely not a good thing. He might as well pretend not to hear her!
