Translator: Dragon Boat Translation | Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The next day was the weekend, and Qin Mucheng wanted to bring Ji Zixuan and
Ji Yuanyuan out for a walk.
However, Ji Zixuan did not want to be a third wheel, so he used the excuse of not feeling well to stay at home.
Ji Yuanyuan understood him and naturally knew he was not really feeling unwell.
Coincidentally, she also wanted to be alone with Qin Mucheng, so she went along with the flow and agreed.
The two of them drove across the entire state.
From morning to evening.
The setting sun shone on the frozen lake.
“So beautiful!” Ji Yuanyuan muttered.
The time she spent with Qin Mucheng was always unforgettable.
Ji Yuanyuan heard him and looked at him in surprise, “Really?”
-Yes, I should have enough credits by the end of this year. I should be spending
the next Spring Festival at home.”
Ji Yuanyuan was happy but deliberately said, “Even if you go back, we can’t go to Houhai to watch the sunset on the first day of the New Year.
“Hmm?” Qin Mucheng looked at her.
“I didn’t go back to my hometown during the Spring Festival this year,” Ji Yuanyuan said, pretending to be disappointed. “Hl definitely go back next Spring Festival.”
“Then I’ll go back with you. Since we can’t watch the sunset in Houhai, let’s go
to Beihai in City W.”
Qin Mucheng’s tone was very serious. Ji Yuanyuan’s heart skipped a beat. She turned her head to face the setting sun and looked at Qin Mucheng.
Qin Mucheng’s eyes were filled with devotion.
Everything around them seemed to have stopped. Only Qin Mucheng was left in Ji Yuanyuan’s world, and Qin Mucheng’s world only had Ji Yuanyuan.
The two of them looked at each other, and their faces slowly approached each other.
When they could hear each other’s breathing, Ji Yuanyuan subconsciously closed her eyes.
However, at this moment, a ringtone suddenly sounded.
Ji Yuanyuan suddenly opened her eyes and looked at Qin Mucheng’s pocket uncomfortably, “You got a call.”
Qin Mucheng felt a little awkward as well. He took out his phone and said in a rather unpleasant tone, “What’s wrong?
This call came at a really bad time!
Huang Yichen also found it strange. Senior had always been gentle and refined, so why was his tone so serious today?
“Senior, my mom and auntie made dumplings and asked me to send some to you. Are you at home? Should I go over now?” Huang Yichen asked tentatively.
Qin Mucheng’s eyes lit up when he heard that.
He thought for a moment and said, “Yuanyuan and I are outside now. Only
Brother Zixuan is at home.”
Huang Yichen breathed a sigh of relief, “Okay, as long as someone is at home.
I’ll send it now.”
After hanging up, Qin Mucheng looked at Ji Yuanyuan, “We can go back later.” Ji Yuanyuan was still embarrassed and did not dare to look at Qin Mucheng’s face. She only asked in a low voice, “Why?”
Qin Mucheng smiled mysteriously and said in a low voice, “It was Huang Yichen who called just now. He wanted to deliver dumplings to our house.” Ji Yuanyuan’s mind was in a mess and she could not react for a moment, “What do you mean?”
Qin Mucheng did not say anything and just smiled.
After a moment, Ji Yuanyuan understood and immediately smiled.
At the Huang house, Huang Yichen’s mother packed the dumplings into a thermos bag and ordered Huang Yichen, “Be careful on the road.”
Huang Yichen nodded, “Okay.”
just as he was about to pick up the dumplings, Huang Weiwei came in from outside.
Huang Yichen suddenly thought of something and clutched his stomach, “Ouch, my stomach suddenly hurts.”
“As lazy as a bear. I asked you to do some work and you’re already refusing!” Huang Yichen ignored his mother and looked at Huang Weiwei, “Sis, my stomach suddenly hurts. It might take a long time. Why don’t I trouble you to make a trip and deliver the dumplings to Brother Zixuan and the others?” Huang Weiwei, who had just entered, was stunned. Before she could say anything, she heard her aunt say, “Your sister just came back from outside. Can’t you let her rest? I’ll give you two minutes. Hurry up and settle it and send it over.”
Huang Yichen pretended he couldn’t help but run to the bathroom. As he ran, he said, “I’ll text you the address.”
Huang Yichen’s mother still wanted to say something, but Huang Weiwei quickly took the dumplings and helped Huang Yichen out of the predicament, “Auntie, it’s okay. I don’t have anything to do anyway. I’ll go.”
Huang Yichen’s mother hesitated for a moment before finally compromising, “Okay, be careful on the road.”
Ji Zixuan and Ji Yuanyuan had been hanging out for a while and were planning to return home at around 8 pm.
However, before seven o’clock, Qin Mucheng received another call from Huang Yichen.
-Brother Zixuan is injured. He’s in the hospital now.” Huang Yichen shouted as soon as the call was connected.
Qin Mucheng was stunned for a moment, “Which hospital?
Hearing the word hospital, Ji Yuanyuan’s expression turned serious.
Qin Mucheng hung up the phone and started the car. He said in a deep voice, “Brother Zixuan is in the hospital now. He took a knife on his arm, so there shouldn’t be any major problems.”
-How did you get stabbed?” Ji Yuanyuan asked nervously as she fastened her seatbelt.
The hand that was holding the seatbelt was trembling.
Why did he get stabbed?
“I didn’t ask in detail over the phone. Let’s go over now. Huang Yichen said that his injuries aren’t serious.” As Qin Mucheng spoke, he freed his hand and held Ji Yuanyuan’s hand.
Under Qin Mucheng’s comfort, Ji Yuanyuan gradually calmed down.
Although her soul was already an adult, she couldn’t calm down when it came to her family.
Qin Mucheng drove very fast along the way. The two of them arrived at the hospital in less than twenty minutes.
In the hospital, Huang Yichen, Huang Weiwei, and Huang Weiwei’s father were all there.
Ji Zixuan was sitting on the bed, his right hand wrapped tightly, hanging around his neck.
Ji Yuanyuan stepped forward and sized up Ji Zixuan. Seeing there were no other wounds on his body, she heaved a sigh of relief.
Seeing her nervous, Ji Zoxuan comforted her softly, “I’m fine. The wound isn’t serious.”
“What’s going on? Why did you get injured all of a sudden?” Ji Yuanyuan asked as he looked at Ji Zixuan’s arm.
Before he could say anything, Huang Weiwei spoke first, “Yuanyuan, I’m sorry. Zixuan was injured because he wanted to protect me. Don’t worry, I’ll take responsibility. I’ll take care of his food, clothing, and accommodation during this period of time.”
Ji Yuanyuan looked at Huang Weiwei and her expression softened.
Huang Yichen explained to Huang Weiwei, “This is mainly my fault. Mother originally sent me to deliver dumplings to you, but my stomach hurt at the last minute, so she asked my sister to go.”
He sighed and continued, “I forgot. During the Spring Festival, the security in this area is not very good. There are more robberies than usual.”
Most of the people who lived there were Chinese. The locals all knew that the Spring Festival was a very important festival for the Chinese..
