Chapter 43: Exercise before meals
In the evening, there was a slight noise downstairs from the ancestral house, and Ji Zexi moved lightly and woke up from his light sleep.
Mo Yuanyuan's calm and comfortable sleeping face crashed into his eyes so abruptly, Ji Zexi couldn't help but be in a trance, once in the early morning before departure, he also looked at her sleeping face like this, watching her open her eyes and delicately hugging her neck, tricking him not to leave, and his response was enthusiastic and lingering.
Time flies, it has been more than three years in a flash, she has become quiet and introverted, and he has changed from a fair-skinned and handsome teenager to a deep and mature man.
The only thing that remained unchanged was his heart, the beating that had been engraved with her imprint, as hot as ever before her. Even if the gears of the years are ruthlessly tilting it, that wisp of temperature is like a torch in the wind, although it is faint, it will never be extinguished.
The noise became louder and louder, Ji Zexi suddenly came back to his senses, carefully removed his somewhat stiff arm, and got up half-back.
On the bed, Mo Yuanyuan fluttered her eyelashes slightly, slowly opened her eyes, and looked at him quietly with dark eyes.
Ji Zexi paused, "You're awake." ā
"En," Mo Yuanyuan replied and sat up slowly.
Ji Zexi hurriedly stepped forward to help her up, and moved the pillow up again, just so that it was convenient for her to lean on.
In the spacious living room downstairs, Jin Can held Xiaobao's hand and danced, and He Xiuyuan leisurely leaned on the back of the bench, smiling at his son's lively appearance.
The child's frolicking faintly entered the room, and Mo Yuanyuan turned her head sideways and asked him, "Is Xiaobao downstairs?" ā
Ji Zexi nodded: "Uncle He just brought Jin Can and Xiaobao back." ā
Mo Yuanyuan smiled slightly, remembering the aunt's new husband's ridicule of Jin Rui for escaping from the entanglement of beautiful women last night, she couldn't help but want to laugh.
Ji Zexi saw that she was in good spirits, so he asked, "Why don't we go downstairs and have a look?" Today is Xiaobao's first day in the training gym. ā
"Okay," Mo Yuanyuan looked down at the crumpled clothes on her body again, and said embarrassedly, "You go out first, I'll come after I change my clothes." ā
Ji Zexi let go of the big hand that was holding her arm, turned around and walked out.
As soon as he went out, Ji Zexi let out a long breath.
Fortunately, she didn't ask much just now, otherwise he really couldn't answer that she was the only one in the house before going to bed, but there was one more him in front of him when she woke up.
Below, Jin Can waved his arms, his eyebrows fluttered and said how he heroically knocked down the two children today to achieve victory for his team, Xiaobao opened his mouth slightly, and listened with a cute face.
Ji Zexi put his hand in his pocket and walked downstairs lazily.
He Xiuyuan saw him coming slowly, and then remembered what he said yesterday that Mo Yuanyuan was going to check, so he asked him, "How is Yuanyuan?" ā
Ji Zexi frowned and shook his head.
The two children suddenly stopped talking, and they both looked up at Ji Zexi, as if they wanted to know the answer.
He Xiuyuan clapped his hands with a smile, and when he saw that the children had turned to pay attention to him, he smiled and said, "I've been thirsty for a long time, why don't we go to the restaurant and eat something?" ā
"Okay," Bao grinned and ran towards the restaurant.
Jin Can frowned reluctantly, "Then it's better to eat just a little bit," after speaking, he hurriedly spread his little short legs and chased Xiaobao.
The two children ran away with cheers, and He Xiuyuan turned his head to look at Ji Zexi, "What's the matter?" ā
Ji Zexi sighed lightly, "She is a blood congestion that oppresses the cerebral cortex into dormancy, and Aunt Jian YƬ maintains the status quo, but Yuanyuan insists on taking stimulation therapy for treatment." ā
He Xiuyuan frowned and hesitated: "If I remember correctly, it is an extremely torturous method of using pain to stimulate the brain so that it can revive on its own. ā
Ji Zexi nodded, "Yuanyuan fainted there this afternoon." ā
He Xiuyuan looked at him in disbelief, "You just let her go and watch her pass out?" ā
Ji Zexi lowered his head, his black hair covering his gloomy eyes, "What can I do?" Her temper has always been stubborn, and she has always been haunted by the memories of the past, and if I stop her, I am afraid that she will get into the horns. ā
He Xiuyuan nodded and sighed: "Also, if I don't know anything about my past, I will try my best to find it back." ā
Ji Zexi sighed silently.
"What are you talking about?"
A soft voice suddenly came.
The two hurriedly turned their heads, and Mo Yuanyuan came in a long white dress behind them.
He Xiuyuan hurriedly said: "I'm talking about our past practice. ā
Mo Yuanyuan laughed, "Uncle He is so elegant that he will fight with others?" ā
He Xiuyuan smiled and glanced at Ji Zexi, who had a depressed look in his eyes, "Don't underestimate me, I easily put down this young commander back then." ā
Speaking of the troubles of the year, Ji Zexi's face was hot, "Uncle He, if you didn't get drunk with me that time, how could you let you succeed." ā
He Xiuyuan raised his hand and put down the glasses that pretended to be Sven, "This is yours, you have to admit it if you lose." ā
Of course Ji Zexi was not convinced, that time it was Mo Yuanyuan who finally agreed to Ji Zexi's request and promised to get along with him. As soon as he was happy, he drank a few more glasses, but he became a drunk cat, and he happened to be picked up by He Xiuyuan, so he dragged him to practice, and after falling back and forth a few times, he put him down, and He Xiuyuan let him go satisfied.
Since then, his only defeat has become the only victory in He Xiuyuan's sparring history.
Exhaled, Ji Zexi slowly unbuttoned his shirt cufflinks, his slender fingers slowly pulled the sleeves between his elbows, and his clear eyes shone brightly.
He Xiuyuan looked at his obviously provocative move and straightened up.
Ji Zexi smiled lightly, "Little uncle? Let's play two warm-ups? ā
He Xiuyuan was stunned by his little uncle, this was probably the second time he called him that, the first time was when he held a ceremony with Jin Shu.
But at this time, this rare honorific title made his hairs stand up automatically, since he took over part of the Kim business two years ago, he has never trained or anything, and his physical fitness has naturally declined greatly.
Look at Ji Zexi again, with slender and flexible limbs, firm and tight muscles, plus the skills honed in the past few years.
Sparring with such a person who can put down himself in an instant, that pure brain pumping.
He Xiuyuan laughed dryly, "Zexi, why do you do it when you speak, you will eat later, it is not good to hurt anything." ā
Before the words fell, Jin Rui walked in, "What's the situation, this is preparing for a warm-up?" ā
He Xiuyuan suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, "Jin Rui, you came just in time, Zexi said to loosen your muscles, you come to accompany him." ā
Jin Rui took off his straight suit and threw it on the chair casually, "Okay." I haven't moved in a long time. ā
Ji Zexi looked at the shiny leather shoes under his feet, "Are you sure?" ā
Jin Rui's face was excited, and his eyes widened unconsciously, "Sure." ā
Ji Zexi smiled slightly, "Okay then, let's go outside." ā
Jin Rui nodded, and the two walked out one after the other.
Seeing that a dragon battle was about to be staged, Mo Yuanyuan clenched her fists lightly, and for some reason, she was actually a little excited in her heart.
