Chapter 439: Rattling

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

The two children started to run to Qin Junshan’s place every day after the summer vacation.

Qin Junshan was also close to Li Miao’s house. He knew that Li Miao was preparing for the postgraduate examination, so he often asked Xiao Qi to make some delicious food and send it to Li Miao.

After the children arrived, the heavy responsibility of delivering the items was handed over to them.

Of course, in order not to disturb Li Miao’s study, they left after delivering the things and never stayed.

Qin Xiaojie, who was next door, had nothing to do recently. He had been staying at home and would sneak over from time to time for a meal.

Ever since his sister fell out with her family that day, she had never come back.

There were only three of them at home now. How could Qin Xiaojie bear to talk to two old people all day?

In comparison, he naturally preferred to stay at Qin Junshan.

It was said that a man was still a teenager until his death. He, Qin Mucheng, and Ji Zixuan were only eight or nine years apart.

Sometimes, they had a common language. For example, playing games was not dependent on age.

They would play games together and occasionally drive them out for a ride.

Qin Xiaojie’s days were getting better.

He also followed Ji Zi’ang and the others to deliver food to Li Miao a few times.

As time passed, he had more contact with Li Miao. Qin Xiaojie’s little thoughts began to come alive again.

Niu Allan noticed her son had been acting a little strange recently. He was no longer as dispirited as before and was now very happy. Not only did he run out every day, but he also dressed up gorgeously.

“Old man, don’t you think that something happened to Xiaojie recently?” At night, Niu Allan asked Qin Zhiye.

“What can happen?” Qin Zhiye said absent-mindedly.

Next month would be his 6oth birthday, and it was time for him to retire.

Having worked in the unit for half his life, Qin Zhiye felt sour whenever he thought of retirement.

Niu Allan naturally knew what Qin Zhiye was worried about. She opened her mouth but didn’t finish her sentence.

Forget it, forget it. It’s better not to say it and let the old man worry.

Niu Allan turned over and closed her eyes, thinking about what would happen tomorrow.

Ever since Qin Xiaojie returned home, he had been living a sleepless life.

It was late in the morning and it was almost time for lunch. He slowly got out of bed.

When he came downstairs, he was dressed up beautifully.

He was wearing a gaudy short-sleeved shirt paired with loose pants. His hair was combed and he was whistling.

Niu Allan was furious when she saw Qin Xiaojie’s expression.

More than 500,000 yuan went down the drain just like that. If it was an ordinary person, they would have been dispirited for a period of time.

However, this kid acted as if nothing had happened very quickly. Now, he didn’t even think of a way to earn back the money. He actually became a loafer at home with a clear conscience.

Especially when she thought about how he had put in a good word for Li Yong that day, Niu Allan was so angry that she wanted to scold him.

However, before Niu Allan could curse, Qin Xiaojie took a piece of bread from the fridge and said carelessly, “I won’t be eating at home for lunch. You can eat by yourself.”

Seeing this, Niu Allan swallowed her words.

She pretended not to care and nodded, “Alright, come back early tonight.”

Qin Xiaojie took the car keys and left while eating bread.

From the corner of her eye, Niu Allan saw Qin Xiaojie driving away. She hurried to the entrance, took her keys and wallet, changed into her slippers, and went out.

Coincidentally, she bumped into a taxi as soon as she left the house.

Niu Allan got into the car and instructed the driver, “Driver, please follow the sports car in front.”

The driver looked at Niu Allan suspiciously through the rearview mirror.

“That’s my son,” Niu Allan explained. “He leaves early and returns late every day. I’m afraid he’ll do something bad.”

When the driver heard this, he immediately empathized, “Alright, sit tight.”

At Qin Junshan’s house, Xiao Qi, the nanny, took a foam box and put some cherries in it. She placed an ice pack to keep them warm. He took another lunch box and poured some of the fish soup into it.

Qin Haowen and Cheng Shuqin bought some cherries and sent them over. Cherries were rare in this season, so Qin Junshan wanted to give some to Li Miao.

Coincidentally, Xiao Qi had stewed some fish soup, so he wanted to send it to her together.

After she was done packing, she gave everything to Ji Zi’ang and Qin Mucheng and instructed, “Don’t spill it.”

“Don’t worry. 1 won’t.” Ji Ziang nodded.

The two of them carried the things and walked into the courtyard. Xiao Li was already waiting for them.

The three children got into the car, and Xiao Li brought them to Li Miao.

Along the way, Ji Zi’ang hugged the fish soup container tightly and did not dare to let go.

Qin Mucheng took a few washed cherries and stuffed them into Ji Yuanyuan’s mouth one by one.

Ji Zi’ang was a little jealous, “Brother Mucheng, have you forgotten that there’s a living person here?”

Upon hearing this, Qin Mucheng reluctantly stuffed one into Ji Zi’ang’s mouth.

“So sweet!” Ji Zi’ang sighed.

The two houses were not far from each other. Soon, they arrived downstairs.

Before Xiao Li could park the car, Ji Yuanyuan noticed the sports car in front of her.

“Why does that car look so familiar?”

Black jogs were rare in the county.

So far, she had only seen one in S City.

That was Qin Xiaojie’s car.

Speaking of which, this car was really similar to Qin Xiaojie’s car.

Qin Mucheng stuck his head out and looked over. His expression turned serious, “That’s my Little Uncle’s car. Why is he here?”

Qin Xiaojie came to took for Youngest Aunt in private?]! Yuanyuan’s expression also turned serious.

After Xiao Li parked the car, she got out of the car impatiently and quietly went upstairs.

Qin Mucheng quickly followed him. Only Ji Zi’ang got out of the car carefully with the fish soup in his arms.

Seeing he didn’t take the cherries in the passenger seat, he looked at Xiao Li again, “Brother Xiao Li, please help me hold it and put it in my hand.”

Xiao Li found it funny and took the cherries for her. He carefully placed them in her hand and instructed, “Be careful, don’t spill it.”

“Alright.” Ji Zi’ang nodded. “1 understand.”

He carried the fish soup in one hand and the cherries in the other. When he reached the second and a half floors, he saw the tense situation.

Li Miao stood at the door. She was wearing a wide dress and her hair was casually tied into a bun. She looked a little slovenly.

Qin Xiaojie stood outside the door, dressed up in a flamboyant manner.

In front of Qin Xiaojie was Niu Allan, and behind him were Ji Yuanyuan and Qin Mucheng.

Ji Zi’ang quickly placed the fish soup and cherries on the ground on the second and a half floors. He took a few steps and went straight to the third floor.

He looked at Niu Allan nervously..
