Chapter 71: A Chance Encounter
"I don't have any money, don't mention money to me in the future, didn't you find a wild man, and you want money and that wild man." Wu Fengqin refused without even thinking about it.
Originally, Ji Tao was bored sitting in the corner playing with his mobile phone, but when he heard Wu Fengqin's simple refusal, his heart suddenly felt a little depressed, and he couldn't help muttering, "Cry poor with us every day, and the eldest sister can take out the money if she asks for anything." ”
"Little bunny, what are you muttering there? Can you compare to both? Cheng Tian has nothing else but to cause trouble for me, and even if 70,000 yuan is given to you, it will be useless, and it will be of some use to keep it for Shuangshuang's treatment. Wu Fengqin sneered, making no secret of her disappointment with Ji Tao.
The expression on Ji Tao's face suddenly fell, and he glared at Ji Shuangshuang angrily. Seeing this, Ji Xiaoxi hurriedly grabbed his shoulder and patted him comfortingly.
"Look at what I'm doing, I didn't hit people with your hands." Ji Shuangshuang spread his hands innocently, as if this quarrel had nothing to do with her.
Ji Xiaoxi hugged Ji Tao, and could obviously feel the slightly trembling body of the young man in her arms, her chest was sour, and she sighed and said, "Forget it, you don't have to worry about this matter." Xiao Tao, don't worry, I won't let you drop out. ”
"Second sister......" Ji Tao raised his head, and the young boy's pupils contained indescribable emotions.
"Obedient." Ji Xiaoxi touched Ji Tao's head affectionately, turned around and left the Ji family without hesitation.
It wasn't until she walked out of the community that Ji Xiaoxi began to worry, where should she go to get 70,000 yuan in three days. Hesitantly picking up the phone, Ji Xiaoxi clicked on Ye Chensheng's phone, but his fingers hung in the air for a long time, and he didn't press it after all.
Otherwise, let's talk to Brother Qin...... Ji Xiaoxi struggled again and again, and finally sent a WeChat message to Qin Lingchuan.
"Brother Qin, do you have time now, see you at the old place?"
Qin Lingchuan replied with a good word almost in seconds. Ji Xiaoxi took a deep breath and walked quickly towards the secret base that belonged to her and Qin Lingchuan.
Sitting in the coffee shop where he often meets with Qin Lingchuan, Ji Xiaoxi looked at the door from time to time, and his hand that clenched the cup was already sweating.
Fortunately, Qin Lingchuan's figure soon appeared at the door of the coffee shop. I haven't seen Qin Lingchuan for a long time, Ji Xiaoxi couldn't tell whether he was excited or missed, and his eyes unconsciously followed Qin Lingchuan all the way in.
"Konishi, what's wrong?"
Qin Lingchuan walked over and asked with concern.
Ji Xiaoxi pursed his lips and smiled, the cup in his hand moved slightly on the table, his lips timidly and didn't know how to speak.
"Did you encounter any difficulties? If you need help, just let me know. Qin Lingchuan saw Ji Xiaoxi's entanglement and said softly.
But the more Qin Lingchuan was so concerned, the more she couldn't open her mouth. Hesitating, Ji Xiaoxi's afterglow caught a glimpse of the ring on Qin Lingchuan's hand.
It seems to be the style of the ring, presumably it should be the engagement ring between Brother Qin and his fiancée. Ji Xiaoxi's eyes gradually darkened.
Yes, Brother Qin is now engaged, she should consciously avoid suspicion, and she can't complain to Brother Qin about everything. Thinking of this, Ji Xiaoxi squeezed out a reluctant smile.
"I'm fine, it's just the last time I borrowed money from you, and I want to thank you today."
Qin Lingchuan saw that she didn't want to say, so he didn't ask, smiled at her meaning, raised his hand and habitually wanted to rub her head. Over there, Ji Xiaoxi also smiled obediently and lowered his head, looking cooperative.
"Lingchuan, why are you here?" A surprised female voice came from not far away.
Qin Lingchuan's hand froze in the air for a moment, and landed on the coffee cup in embarrassment. Ji Xiaoxi's heart tightened, and he turned his head to look in the direction where the voice came from.
Across a few tables, a pretty figure walked over quickly.
"Who is this?"
Lin Na looked at Ji Xiaoxi as if puzzled. The last time Ji Xiaoxi went to Qin Lingchuan to borrow money, she had already seen Ji Xiaoxi's appearance upstairs, but now she was just asking knowingly.
"Hello, I'm Brother Qin's friend, Ji Xiaoxi."
Ji Xiaoxi recognized Lin Na at a glance as the heroine of the engagement video, so she sensibly changed her name, got up and stretched out her hand to her.
"Konishi, is it?" Linna's gaze on her became a little meaningful.
This kind of searching gaze is very familiar to Ji Xiaoxi, and she can keenly feel the alienation and rejection in her sight. But after all, this is Brother Qin's fiancée, Ji Xiaoxi had no choice but to bite the bullet and let Linna look up and down.
It wasn't until Ji Xiaoxi's arm was hanging in the air that it was almost sour and could no longer support it, that Lin Na raised her hand and shook it, and passed by perfunctorily.
For a moment, the atmosphere at the table was a little awkward.
"Nana, why are you here? Aren't you going to go to an event in the evening? Qin Lingchuan opened his mouth at the right time to break this embarrassment.
According to Lin Na's schedule, she should be preparing to participate in a big show in the evening, how could she suddenly appear in the coffee shop.
Hearing this, Lin Na shrugged her shoulders, lowered her eyes to look at him, and complained in a low voice: "There are activities in the evening, and I can't eat, so I just come out in the afternoon to fill my stomach." ”
The coquettish meaning in her words was too strong, and it was difficult for Ji Xiaoxi to ignore it, so she could only silently turn her head away.
"You're not fat at all."
Qin Lingchuan's words with a smile floated into her ears.
Ji Xiaoxi couldn't help but hang his head. Her brother Qin really already has a better half, and that person looks so good, they must be in love.
"If you are thin, you will look good in a wedding dress." Lin Na glanced at him complainingly, then turned her head to look at Ji Xiaoxi, and asked with a smile: "Is Xiaoxi here on the day we get married?" Be my bridesmaid. ”
...... be her bridesmaid?
Ji Xiaoxi was stunned for a moment, and made up a picture of Qin Lingchuan holding Lin Na's hand into the auditorium, and his chest was slightly sour.
"Don't you want to?" Seeing that Ji Xiaoxi didn't reply for a long time, Lin Na's delicate eyebrows rose slightly, and there was a hint of provocation in her eyes.
Although Qin Lingchuan didn't know what Ji Xiaoxi was thinking, he still habitually defended her and explained: "Nana, Xiaoxi is already married. ”
Hearing this, Ji Xiaoxi suddenly came back to his senses.
She was so sad that she forgot that she already had a night sheng.
"I'm sorry, Sister Nana."
She smiled apologetically and glanced at Qin Lingchuan opposite, wanting to find an excuse to leave.
Before she could think of a suitable reason, a sharp sound rubbing the ground suddenly interrupted Ji Xiaoxi's thoughts. The voice was familiar to her, but for a moment she couldn't remember where she had heard it.
At this time, Lin Na turned sideways slightly, looked at the two people who appeared around the corner, and introduced Qin Lingchuan with a smile: "This is Zhang Sheng, you should have seen it, this is his friend, Ji Shuangshuang, you should also know him." ”
Ji Shuangshuang?! How did she end up here? Ji Xiaoxi suddenly panicked in his heart.
