Jiang Mian just wanted him to come back early in the evening, but she didn't expect that Ji Zhixiu would arrive home half an hour later.

After not seeing him for a long time, Jiang Mian threw herself into his arms. Looking up to meet his gaze, Ji Zhixiu pinched her earlobe with his fingertips and said in a loving tone, "She seems to have lost some weight."

Jiang Mian really didn't eat much during this period. Hearing this, he straightened up and said happily, "You've really lost weight? That's great."

"There's no need to pursue excessive bamboo pole beauty. You're not fat. Besides, you're just fine as you are. It feels good to hold you." At the end of his sentence, there was a hint of joking in his tone.

Jiang Mian hummed softly and lay in his arms, thinking of business, "I want to go back to... Jiangnan during this time."

She raised her eyelids slightly, having been with Ji Zhixiu for so long. She seemed to have never said anything about herself, just as she didn't know much about Ji Zhixiu's family.

Before Ji Zhixiu asked her, she started talking to herself, "I'm from Jiangnan. You don't know this, right? I grew up in the water town of Jiangnan with my grandmother. Later, my grandmother died of illness, and I came to Kyoto alone to make a living. "

She talked about her painful years in an understatement. Ji Zhixiu's heart tightened and she was filled with distress. How could he not know? He knew every single thing about her.

"Where are your parents?" Ji Zhixiu couldn't help but ask.

Jiang Mian fell into deep thought and finally shook his head, "I don't know. I have never met my father, and my grandmother has never mentioned it. As for my mother, I met her several times when I was a child. Later, I heard from my grandmother that she left alone. Now, I won’t come back.”

"I should be a child abandoned by my parents. Only my grandmother took me in." Jiang Mian whispered, with a slight loss on his face.

"Don't think nonsense." Ji Zhixiu interrupted her.

Jiang Mian came back to her senses and thought hard, "Actually, after so many years, I seem to have forgotten what she looks like. Even if she stands in front of me again now, I may not recognize her."

"It's far away. I want to go back and see grandma." Jiang Mian grabbed his arm and shook it.

Ji Zhixiu lowered his eyes and gently brushed away a strand of hair beside her ear with his fingertips, "I'll be with you."

He also wanted to visit the charitable old man and tell her that he would take good care of Jiang Mian.

Jiang Mian didn't expect that he would go back with her. The corner of her mouth raised, "Okay, I'll take you back to meet your parents."

"I will be with you from now on, Mianmian. I will always be with you." Ji Zhixiu could see that the little girl was still sad when she mentioned her grandmother.

Jiang Mian lay on his shoulder, "Ji Zhixiu, sometimes I feel that I am very unfilial. You know, after burying my grandma, I haven't gone back to see her once in the past few years. I don't dare to think about it. I just think that she is gone." , and all the bits and pieces of the past, I’m very sad.”

Memories are the most murderous.

Ji Zhixiu stroked her back gently and patted her, “I know that grandma is always here, and she will bless Mianmian with good fortune and good health."

Ji Zhixiu's voice had never been so gentle. He didn't dare to make it too loud for fear of disturbing Jiang Mian.

Jiang Mian's heart was swollen. She has no father or mother, her grandmother died young, and she walked alone for too long until she met Ji Zhixiu.

The unattainable extravagant wishes in dreams can also come true. She is the gentle treatment of this man.

Ji Zhixiu changed the subject and said, "I'll take you out for dinner tomorrow. Shen Tingyu's dinner."

Jiang Mian blinked, "Are you alone invited, or are there others?"

Ji Zhixiu scratched the tip of her nose with his finger, "Of course there are Lu Cong and the others."

"Well done, why are you inviting you to dinner?"

"We'll know when the time comes."

Jiang Mian nodded, "I'll go upstairs to pick out clothes."

She got up and walked to the second floor. When she returned to the master bedroom, she opened the gap in the drawer and found the bracelet she had dropped last time.

Fortunately, it's still in the corner.

Jiang Mian picked it up, wiped it clean carefully, and put it on his hand again.

…

The next day, Jiang Mian and Ji Zhixiu went to the agreed place together.

In the box, Lu Cong and Chang Qin had already arrived.

When the door was pushed open, Shen Tingyu smiled and was about to speak. When he saw Jiang Mian, his expression froze again, but he still said to Ji Zhixiu, “You are here."

Lu Cong waved to Jiang Mian, “Brother Xiu, sister-in-law! Sit here with me!"

Jiang Mian, “Let Ah Xiu sit with you, I want to sit with Qing Qing."

Shen Tingyu felt happy when she didn't sit right with Zhixiu.

Just as he was about to insert himself between the two of her, Lu Cong sat down and said, "Then I'll sit between you."

Shen Tingyu secretly gritted his teeth and scolded Lu for never knowing what he was doing.

She got up and poured tea for Ji Zhixiu. She dressed up carefully today, hoping to leave a good impression in front of Ji Zhixiu. But I didn't expect that Jiang Mian's simple dress was not as eye-catching as it was.

Jiang Mian raised her lips and raised the cup, "Miss Shen, wouldn't you mind pouring me a cup?"

Shen Tingyu smiled without any reluctance, "Of course, I won't mind."

Chang Qin raised his head and said, "Everyone is here, let's serve the food."

Shen Tingyu nodded, "I'll let them arrange it now."

This meal was more peaceful than expected. At least Shen Tingyu was really honest. Jiang Mian was relieved.

I have to say that the location chosen by Shen Tingyu was really good. The food was delicious and had a suitable taste. Even a pregnant woman with a poor appetite like Qing Qing found it good and drank two bowls of white fungus soup.

After eating, Shen Tingyu said, "My car has been sent to be washed. Can Zhixiu give it to me?"

Before Ji Zhixiu could answer, Lu Cong said, "I'll send it off, okay, sister Tingyu?"

Shen Tingyu felt that her smile could no longer be maintained as she looked at the man's indifferent expression. She nodded heavily, "Okay, why not."

"Come on, get in my car."

Before she could say goodbye, she was dragged away by Lu Cong. Before leaving, she glanced lovingly at Ji Zhixiu, but unfortunately the man didn't receive it at all.

Back at the villa, Jiang Mian hugged the man and kissed him, "Honey, you are so great today!"

"how?"

"Good performance, reward."

Ji Zhixiu raised his eyebrows slightly, "I hope the next time you compliment me, it will be in bed."

Jiang Mian was already used to his irregularity. She pulled the pillow aside and said, "If someone else sees you like this, who would dare to believe it."

Ji Zhixiu chuckled, "Who else can see it besides you."

Jiang Mian was about to speak when she suddenly felt a pain in her brain. She unconsciously grabbed Ji Zhixiu's wrist, "Headache..."

Ji Zhixiu frowned and kneaded both sides of her temples with his fingertips, “Have you taken any medicine recently?"

"The last time I ate it was when I had a fight with you."

There is no way to go on like this. Taking too many painkillers will lead to dependence. Ji Zhixiu lowered his eyebrows and looked at her, "Shall we go see a Chinese medicine doctor?"

Jiang Mian decisively refused without thinking, "No."

She closed her eyes and distracted herself, “Chinese medicine is too bitter, I don't want to drink it."

Ji Zhixiu coaxed her, “Let's go and have a look first. Whether we can prescribe medicine or not is another matter."

Jiang Mian hesitated, and Ji Zhixiu was very concerned about her headache. Not wanting to make him worry, Jiang Mian reluctantly responded, "Okay, let's take a look first."

Ji Zhixiu immediately called Fan Cheng to arrange the matter.

After making the call, he picked up Jiang Mian and walked steadily towards the second floor, "You go upstairs and rest first."

…

When Ji's mother called Ji Zhixiu, Jiang Mian happened to be asleep.

He glanced at his phone and hung up, then got out of bed and walked to the living room before calling back.

Ji's mother didn't say anything, she just asked him to come to the hospital now.

Ji Zhixiu's eyebrows sank, "I understand."

In the hospital, obstetrics and gynecology.

Ji Zhilan was lying on the bed with a pale face, still unconscious.

With Ji's mother accompanying him, Ji Zhixiu had already guessed it after just one glance. He said calmly, “Where is Jiangcheng?"

Mentioning Jiang Cheng, Ji's mother couldn't help but become furious, "I also want to know Zhilan is lying in the hospital now. Where did this husband go?"

Ji Zhixiu nodded slightly, "I understand, mom, don't be angry. I'll let him come over."

He winked at Xiang Long. Xiang Long understood and immediately turned around and walked out.

When Xiang Long caught Jiang Cheng, Jiang Cheng was preparing to pack up his things and run away with his mother. He knew there was nothing he could do about it, so he accidentally pushed Ji Zhilan downstairs!

He was just in a panic for a moment, and it was all his fault that Ji Zhilan still flirted with him even though he knew she was pregnant. Jiang Cheng closed his eyes. The moment Ji Zhilan fell down the stairs, a lot of blood flowed from his body. He didn't know if his son could be saved...

"Son, do we really want to escape back to the countryside?" Jiang's mother's trembling words interrupted his thoughts.

Jiang Cheng's eyes changed and his voice was decisive, “Mom, we have to leave. If we offend the Ji family, we will not have a good life. If Ji Zhilan wakes up, can her family let us go?"

Jiang's mother almost cried, "What a sin! I, an old man, haven't finished college yet. What will my classmates do if I leave..."

"Okay, Mom, stop talking! If you are still in the mood to think about this at this time, come on, see what's valuable and take it. Let's take all Ji Zhilan's jewelry away!"

Jiang Cheng was rummaging through boxes and cabinets looking for valuable things. Just as he was about to grab the jewelry, Xiang Long descended from the sky and pressed his hand, "Where are you going?"

Jiang's mother watched helplessly as Xiang Long took Jiang Cheng away. No matter how much she cried, it was of no use. The nanny went to buy some groceries, and when she came back she found that the house had changed somehow...

The moment he was caught by Xiang Long, Jiang Cheng knew it was over... He didn't expect the Ji family to move so quickly. Along the way, he racked his brains and said all his good words in an attempt to get Xiang Long to let him go, but Xiang Long was unmoved.

Finally, we arrived at the door of the hospital. Jiang Cheng resisted instinctively. He stood motionless at the door. Xiang Long said expressionlessly, "I advise you to follow me up. If you don't let me, I will knock you out and carry you up."

His tone was as cold as ice.

Jiang Cheng shuddered, "Big...brother...I'll go up with you. But now, I am also Ji's uncle, can you be polite to me?"

Xiang Long remained silent and glanced at him.

Jiang Cheng understood the meaning of this look, and he immediately walked forward obediently.

When he arrived at the door of the ward, Jiang Cheng was also a little uneasy. Of course he hoped that Ji Zhilan would be okay, but if it was true, Jiang Cheng would be a little aggrieved.

If it weren't for this damn woman, how could he be where he is today!

He stood at the door and hesitated to move. Xiang Long ran out of patience and carried him inside.

Ji's mother turned around and saw him. She stepped forward and slapped her ears with two slaps, which made Jiang Cheng's eyes flash with stars.
