C171 Can't Cover Your Belly

She did not understand what the old man was thinking. If he wanted her to leave, then so be it. It had been so long since they had sent food over. Lyi Qing was going to starve to death.

Ji Nian picked up the food box and was about to leave. She even kindly instructed, "Then you should be careful. If you want to go back, just shout when you see a nurse passing by."

The old man was cold and did not appreciate it. He ordered again, "Go this way." He pointed to the road on the left. Ji Nian originally wanted to go right.

She looked around and could go back to the hospital building on the left and right. Although she felt that the old man was very strange, she did not argue with the old man and walked towards the left with the food container.

She did not go far when someone ran over in a hurry.

The man's deep and anxious voice said, "Dad, why are you here? Who was so rude to push you here without saying a word?"

It was so cold outside. Who was so stupid to push their old man here?

Mu Haiting turned around and glared at the two bodyguards. How did they do things? He didn't even know that the old man was pushed away!

The two bodyguards lowered their heads, as if they didn't even dare to breathe loudly.

"I wanted to come out. The smell inside made me uncomfortable. Why can't I come out?" The old man's face was stern. One look and one could tell that he was very unhappy.

How could he be happy? It was not easy for him to get acquainted with that girl. It was not easy for him to get her to come here.

Before he could open his mouth to ask a few more questions, these people rushed over to cause trouble. However, this girl's craftsmanship was not bad. Could Mu Tingye have such a good mouth every day?

Humph, it's not right for a brat like him to enjoy such a good thing all by himself! He also did not know what it was like to bring people back to make a meal for an old man!

Mu Haiting knew that the old man's temper was very strange. He said with concern, "Dad, it's cold outside. I'm worried about your legs. Let's go back."

He was still wondering if the nurse had sent his father out. But the nurse was too irresponsible. Why did she leave him here?

He had just heard from the doctor about his father's situation. He did not pay attention to it for a moment, but the old man was pushed here. Just thinking about it made him feel scared.

Although Old Master Mu did not like to hear those words that said his legs were not good, he had to admit that he was old.

He had only come out for a while and his leg joints were faintly aching again. Fortunately, he had just drank a bowl of warm soup and his body felt much more comfortable.

No, he had to let Mu Tingye bring him back. Not to mention whether he could enter the Mu family or not, it was also good to let that girl boil the soup for him.

The old man glanced at his serious and rigid son. On the surface, he did not show any expression of wanting to lose face. He said coldly, "Then hurry up and send me back!"

Mu Haiting glared at the bodyguard behind him. The bodyguard immediately came over and pushed the wheelchair.

Lyi Qing stayed in the hospital for two days and went home to rest. Ji Nian took care of her the whole time. Anyway, she did not have many things to do.

The television station's program was recorded once a week. Now, all the major radio stations were preparing for the New Year's Eve gala, so her program was temporarily not recorded and she had more free time.

This also gave her more time to stare at her phone. Day after day, that familiar number did not call or send any messages.

She thought that he must be very busy. The difference in time overseas was different from that in China, so she did not know when to call him.

She even nervously took Lyi Qing's phone and dialed her own phone. Only after making sure that her phone was unimpeded did she feel at ease.

But then she felt disappointed. Her phone was normal, which was that Mu Tingye really had not called her once.

There were still three days until New Year's Day. Ji Nian became more and more idle. She suddenly remembered that Mu Tingye said that she owed him a gift.

Taking advantage of her free time, she decided to choose a gift for him. It was a surprise to give him a New Year gift, although she did not know if he would come back to celebrate New Year with her.

The pedestrians on the road were wearing coats and walking hurriedly. Only Ji Nian was leisurely walking to the shops one by one.

She did not look at the name of the shops. This street was a flagship store of various brands. Even if any random shop entered, the name would be famous internationally.2

She casually walked into one of the shops. A salesperson immediately welcomed her and asked her what she was looking for.

She asked which gifts were better for men. The salesperson introduced them to her that they could give out buttons. Their shop had crystal buttons specially designed for men.

The salesperson led her to the counter where the men's buttons were placed. Ji Nian looked up and saw the name of the shop. It was Shiva Shiqi. No wonder he introduced crystal buttons to her. This was the world's number one crystal manufacturer.

Just as Ji Nian was seriously selecting the buttons, another customer pushed the door open and came in. The salesperson welcomed her warmly, "Miss Qiao An'er is here. You haven't been here for a long time. Which crystal accessories do you want this time?"

A woman's delicate voice came, "Bring me the latest necklaces and bracelets from this season." Her voice could not hide the joy in it.

Ji Nian was slightly stunned. She did not expect to meet Qiao An'er here. Her back was facing Qiao An'er so the two of them did not meet for a while.

On the other side, Qiao An'er sat on the sofa. The staff took out a series of crystal necklaces and bracelets and placed them in front of her. The staff secretly glanced at Qiao An'er's belly which could not be hidden anymore. Was that Director Lu's child inside?

Speaking of which, not long after Lu Shaocheng divorced, Qiao An'er appeared beside Lu Shaocheng with a large belly.

Judging from the time, before Lu Shaocheng divorced, Qiao An'er had planted a seed in her stomach. Everyone knew why Lu Shaocheng had to divorce Ji Nian - it had caused a woman outside to have a bigger belly.

Therefore, many people still had some sympathy for Ji Nian. However, she got along with Mu Tingye so quickly. Everyone had to doubt that Ji Nian was really the victim.

Now, Mu Tingye said in the magazine interview that he had no intention of getting married. It meant that he did not want to marry Ji Nian. Everyone wondered if Ji Nian had been beaten into the Cold Palace by Mu Tingye.

No matter what, Qiao An'er was now a distinguished guest. They only needed to let Qiao An'er buy a set of jewelry, and the salesperson would be grateful to her.

"Miss Qiao An'er, why didn't Director Lu come with you today?" The salesperson tried to get close to her and chat with her.

Qiao An'er picked up the jewelry that was inlaid with sparkling crystals and looked at them carefully. The smile on her face was a little self-satisfied. "You guys didn't know that by the end of the year, all the men were very busy. How would they have time to accompany us, these idlers, to stroll around. I said that this year is about to pass. If you don't accompany me, I have to say something. He is so vulgar that he asked me to pick a gift. He even stuffed the gold card into my hands and said that if the money was the same, he would settle the score with me. I had no choice but to come here and see what you like. "

She said it in a helpless tone of complaint, but the smile on her face did not diminish. She said it was a complaint, but in fact, she was showing off how Lu Shaocheng did not love her.
