Qi Jincheng waved his hand and motioned for him to leave. He then went up the stairs.
He pushed open the door and saw Su Xiaoxiao sleeping soundly on the bed.
It was only afternoon and he was worried that ___ would not be able to sleep at night and would run around. After a moment of hesitation, he shook her awake.
Su Xiaoxiao was sleeping soundly when she was suddenly pushed awake. She was extremely unwilling in her heart. In addition, she was born with a very good character and did not get angry. She only made a few unwilling grunts in her throat.
These few sounds scratched Qi Jincheng's heart, making him feel itchy and sweet.
"Qi Dong brought you the dessert of the Western Parlor. Are you sure you don't want to eat it?"
Qi Jincheng stood by the bed and observed Su Xiaoxiao's reaction.
As soon as he said that, Su Xiaoxiao, who was frowning, suddenly relaxed. A few seconds later, she stretched and slowly opened her eyes.
Her big eyes seemed to have some confusion that had just woken up, but Qi Jincheng still found some excitement in them.
This snack.
He actually knew to disguise himself.
Could this be considered a form of growth?
When Dr. Lu treated her in the past, he had told Qi Jincheng about it.
For someone like her whose mind was stuck at a certain age, in the future, if something that was unforgettable happened, then it was very likely that her mind would gradually change.
It was also what people often said about growing up.
Everyone would grow up.
Including those whose hearts were only missing.
Could it be that during those few months of wandering life, something had happened that had a huge impact on her?
Qi Jincheng put away the complex thoughts in his heart and brought Su Xiaoxiao downstairs.
He had always been at ease when Qi Dong did things.
Although he was a man, he had the relevant academic qualifications.
He was as meticulous as a hair and could always accurately guess his master's thoughts, making life convenient for him.
Downstairs, there was a small plate of exquisite and beautiful desserts on the table.
Su Xiaoxiao recognized this kind of desserts. When she came out of the old residence, her grandmother had brought her many of them. These desserts usually melted in the mouth and left a fragrance on the lips and teeth. It was Su Xiaoxiao's favorite.
It was a pity that they were all made by a pastry master. If one wanted to eat them, it would take a long time before they could be booked.
It could be said that a cake was hard to find.
Su Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up with hunger when she saw the pastries.
She pulled Qi Jincheng to sit down. She grabbed one with one hand and stuffed it into her mouth. Delicious taste rolled on the tip of her tongue. This made Su Xiaoxiao happily squint her eyes.
There were no words that could describe her current mood.
Su Xiaoxiao liked to eat very much. She grabbed one from the plate and stuffed it into Qi Jincheng's mouth. She said vaguely, "Beautiful brother, eat it. It smells good!"
"Young Master, Elder Qi wants to see you."
Just as Su Xiaoxiao was eating happily, a servant walked in and whispered something into Qi Dong's ear. When he heard it, he quickly went to Qi Jincheng's ear and whispered it to him.
Qi Dong and Elder Qi were father and son.
But these two people were very strange. They had met many times and were always respectful. Apart from work, they rarely talked about family.
Especially Elder Qi, who seemed to have very high expectations for his son.
As expected of the father and son in battle.
"Okay."
Qi Jincheng took a small bite of the pastry and savored it.
This pastry was made by a master. It was sweet but not greasy. It melted the moment it entered his mouth. Even his picky tongue could not say anything.
It was indeed delicious.
After tasting a mouthful, the sound of footsteps could be heard. Elder Qi followed behind Qi Dong and walked in.
There were many similarities on their faces, but their personalities were one in the south and the other in the north. They were very different.
Su Xiaoxiao only cared about lowering her head to eat the pastries. When she came in fully prepared, she looked up and took a glance before withdrawing her gaze.
She was not interested in this old man.
"Eldest Young Master."
Elder Qi's actions were simple and straightforward: "The old master wants to see you."
Qi Jincheng seemed to have expected this and did not look too surprised. He lowered his head and took another bite of the pastries. He did not reply immediately as if he was thinking.
Originally, he didn't need to put on airs.
But just now, in the cemetery, he encountered Qi Hanyi's men.
Although he didn't receive any injuries, under the protection of his subordinates, he left safe and sound. Not even a strand of hair was messed up.
However, he could not pretend that this had not happened.
The other party wanted to take his life.
Su Xiaoxiao wanted to jump up and jump into the car when she heard this, but when she looked up and saw Qi Jincheng's expression, she was instantly a little afraid. She could only swallow all the words she wanted to say and quietly eat the pastries.
Whether she wanted to go or not, she still had to see Qi Jincheng.
Elder Qi observed their reactions and saw that Qi Jincheng did not seem to have any intention of moving. He then spoke to convey the old man's request before he went out.
"The old master said that he would compensate you in another way for all the grievances you received."
"But it is not convenient to talk about this from such a distance. We need to talk face to face before we can talk about it clearly."
Old Qi spoke in a neither servile nor overbearing manner.
As expected of an old man who had followed the old man for many years. He had learned most of his aura when he was young.
Qi Jincheng still didn't say anything.
He lowered his head and ate a small piece of cake unhurriedly.0
Because of his imposing manner, the atmosphere in the room was somewhat low. The servants all lowered their heads or looked forward. Even their breathing was controlled to a degree of carefulness, afraid that they would breathe too hard at this time. And it attracted the attention of this terrifying man.
After eating the pastries, Qi Jincheng slowly took out a handkerchief to wipe one finger at a time. He seemed to be stalling for time, waiting for everything to be done. He looked at Su Xiaoxiao, who had finished eating and was sitting opposite him, looking at him with eager eyes.
After that, he turned his gaze to Elder Qi.
He seemed to have just remembered his words and replied, "I believe in grandfather's decisiveness. Let's go."
Su Xiaoxiao immediately bounced up.
But when she thought of Qi Jincheng's performance just now, she quickly stopped her footsteps. Her eyes rolled twice. Su Xiaoxiao held Qi Jincheng's arm and walked obediently beside him.
The time on the road was boring and long. Fortunately, they arrived at Qi family's old residence very soon.
For some reason, standing in front of this old residence again, Su Xiaoxiao felt that this place was not as grand and grand as before. It seemed to have a kind of declining and lifeless atmosphere.
Lightly shaking her head, Su Xiaoxiao heard the sound of the door being pushed open. When she looked up, she saw two old men standing in front of the door.
It was just that they had not seen each other for a period of time. They seemed to have lost some weight and they looked a little better.
It seemed like the things that had happened in Qi family recently had dealt a huge blow to the strong people.
