When the nurse finished saying this, Ji Xiao obviously felt that his grandfather's body instantly relaxed.

They followed the nurse and sent their grandmother to the general ward, and after a day of tossing, Ji Xiao looked at his grandfather and said, "Grandpa." You lie down on the bed next to you for a while, and I'll go out and buy some food. ”

Grandpa shook his head: "I'll just be here." ”

Ji Xiao didn't insist anymore, after putting on a small blanket for his grandfather. Turned around and went out.

The hospital needs to be taken care of, and she has to go to work herself, so Ji Lingling has to take care of two elderly people in the hospital with her two children.

Thinking of this, Ji Xiao always felt very guilty. It's because she, who is a granddaughter, is too incompetent, and she can't even afford a decent nurse for the elderly, and even has to even involve the child in the hospital.

Ji Xiao silently endured the criticism from the manager, and even so, he still deducted this month's bonus. Ji Xiao silently retreated from the office she had experienced, and when reality was in front of her like this, Ji Xiao suddenly found that she didn't even have room to refuse.

After taking a few deep breaths, Ji Xiao called the person in charge of the Shen family, and the phone was quickly picked up, but on the other end, it was Shen Zhiyuan's familiar voice, and his tone sounded good, even through the phone. You can imagine the smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Xiaoxiao, you can still distinguish between life and work."

"Thank you. So, let's talk about what's next for this project. ”

Ji Xiao said formulaically, since the job can't be lost, just follow the process.

"Xiaoxiao, do you have to be like this?"

Shen Zhiyuan said helplessly, Ji Xiao listened, but did not speak.

"This project is also relatively important to the Shen family, so let's meet and talk."

Shen Zhiyuan squatted. Listening to Ji Xiao, he didn't plan to say anything more to him, so he had to speak like this.

"Okay, time and place.."

Before Ji Xiao asked, Shen Zhiyuan had already answered for her: "I haven't been back to my alma mater for a long time, so it's good to settle on the restaurant we used to go to." ”

Saying that, Shen Zhiyuan didn't ask for her opinion, and said: "I still have something, let's do this first." ”

He hung up.

Ji Xiao sorted out the materials that he would use, checked the design drawings again, and then started to do other things.

In the resort, Jing Moxian has been in it for almost half a month, and even the Chinese New Year is spent in it, Ye Jiannan looked at Jing Moxian who just reads books and magazines every day. complained very dissatisfied: "Second brother, Jing's family is yours, it doesn't matter if it's not good for you to let go like this?" ”

Jing Moxian leisurely put down a teacup: "Or, you can go back and inherit your family's business." ”

Ye Jianan hurriedly waved his hand: "Forget it, under your hands, I'm more relaxed." ”

When it comes to the Ye family's business, Ye Jiannan feels exhausted, all these years, the reason why he has been by Jing Moxian's side is because he doesn't want to go back to manage those messy things, their family is focused on the service industry, and they need to deal with such and such things every day, in order to avoid these, Ye Jiannan still took the initiative to invite Ying to Jing Moxian's men to exercise, this exercise is so many years.

Jing Moxian looked at him and asked, "Have you done the properties I asked you to sell to the Shen family?" ”

Ye Jianan nodded.

He really couldn't figure out what Jing Moxian wanted, it was difficult to start a business from scratch, but it was almost a matter of minutes to destroy a group.

Jing Moxian is doing this now, completely wanting to completely destroy Jing's family, those processing and manufacturing industries that have worked for Jing's for more than ten years, Jing Moxian actually wants him to transfer all of them to Shen's.

"Second brother, are you crazy? These industries have been in Jingshi for so many years, and you say that they are sold? ”

Jing Moxian nodded indifferently: "Otherwise?" What is your opinion? ”

Ye Jianan shook his head: "Forget it, anyway, it's your Jing family's business, and I can't do it if I want to interfere." ”

"By the way, you let the second sister-in-law go to work for Shen Zhiyuan, is this really good? Aren't you afraid that the second sister-in-law will run away with someone else? ”

Ye Jianan's face was worried.

Jing Moxian picked up a cup casually and greeted him mercilessly: "Get out!" ”

Ye Jianan consciously lost his words, raised his eyebrows, and walked out of Jing Moxian's room.

Jing Moxian's brows furrowed, for Ji Xiao, the feeling in his heart was still very complicated, Jing Moxian threw the magazine aside with some irritation.

made an appointment with Shen Zhiyuan at two o'clock in the afternoon, and at ten o'clock in the afternoon, Ji Xiao arrived at the agreed place, Shen Zhiyuan arrived very early, Seeing Ji Xiao coming over, Shen Zhiyuan said lightly: "Xiaoxiao, you are not such a punctual person, I hope that such a thing will not happen again in the future." ”

Ji Xiao sat opposite Shen Zhiyuan and said lightly: "If senior brother thinks that I can't do it, I can change people, there are many very good designers in our company." ”

"Ji Xiao, I hope you understand that even if I can change people, you can't lose this job."

Shen Zhiyuan saw that she had always been like this, and suddenly became serious, Ji Xiao wanted to refute, but he was dejected to find that what he said was not wrong at all, at this time, it was indeed difficult for her to find another job with a higher salary than this.

Ji Xiao was silent.

After being silent for a while, Shen Zhiyuan spoke: "Show me the design drawing." ”

Whether it is the design concept or the design concept, it is very in line with the area over there, it can be seen that it is a design with a lot of thought, but there is not much smile on Shen Zhiyuan's face, this job was originally done for Jing's, and he just took it halfway.

"Jing Moxian is gone, Xiaoxiao, why are you bothering."

Shen Zhiyuan put down the design and looked at her.

Jing Moxian's three words were like a forbidden area in her mind that she couldn't touch, as long as she mentioned him, Ji Xiao felt as sad as a pinprick for a while.

Ji Xiao reluctantly suppressed the pain in his heart, and looked up at Shen Zhiyuan: "Mr. Shen, we are here to talk about design today, and the rest is my private matter." ”

She doesn't deny that she has always been a ruthless person, just like when she divorced Lu Suyao, just like now, she doesn't want to see Shen Zhiyuan's hypocritical face at all.

Shen Zhiyuan didn't seem to feel her disgust, and smiled as usual and said, "Aside from work, Xiaoxiao, there is still love between us, isn't it?" ”

Ji Xiao shook his head: "About a few years ago, when I left the Jing family and left Jingzhou, our relationship has been written off. ”

She's a grudge-holder, and always has been.

Shen Zhiyuan was stunned, the atmosphere suddenly fell into a burst of embarrassment, and Shen Zhiyuan turned the topic back to the design: "So, do you have any comments on this design?" ”

"Senior brother, today I asked you to give advice."

Ji Xiao reminded him expressionlessly.

Shen Zhiyuan simply closed her design and looked at her: "No need, I completely trust you." ”

Ji Xiao was stunned for a moment, if he thought so, then what was the point of their meeting today?

Ji Xiao simply picked up the design book from the table and put it in his bag, "Since Senior Brother doesn't have any opinions, then I'll follow this." ”

Shen Zhiyuan nodded.

"Well, it's nothing, I'll go first."

Ji Xiao said, holding his bag and wanting to get up.

"Xiaoxiao, I have one more thing I want to tell you."

Shen Zhiyuan hurriedly spoke, and he also stood up.

"Is it work?"

"Private matters."

"We don't have anything personal to talk about, do we?"

Ji Xiao raised his eyebrows and turned around to leave.

Shen Zhiyuan grabbed her quickly, he suddenly approached her, and whispered in Ji Xiao's ear: "Xiaoxiao, I think, you don't want to tear your face with me, right?" That way, it won't be good for you. ”

His eyes were on her bag.

Ji Xiao instantly understood what he was referring to.

Now, her job is almost completely in the hands of Shen Zhiyuan, and Ji Xiao found that she has no choice now, if she loses this job, it means that their family will drink the northwest wind, especially that grandma is still in the hospital.

When reality is laid out in front of your eyes, it seems that there is no way but to compromise.

Ji Xiao quietly sat back in his seat.

Shen Zhiyuan looked at her with satisfaction and sat down again.

"I want you to do me a favor."

"What?"

"Marry me."

"What?!"

Ji Xiao's eyes widened, and he looked at Shen Zhiyuan incredulously, just now, what he said was, do you want her to marry him? It's ridiculous!

Ji Xiao stood up directly: "We don't need to talk about it." ”

What is this? Use her current embarrassment to coerce her into selling herself?

It's ridiculous!

Shen Zhiyuan followed her and walked out quickly, grabbed her arm, this cafeteria is only separated from their school by a wall, it used to be the teaching building of their school, Shen Zhiyuan grabbed her arm: "Xiaoxiao, you misunderstood, I just want to..."

Before he finished speaking, Ji Xiao raised his hand and gave Shen Zhiyuan a slap mercilessly, "Let go of me!" ”

She glanced at Shen Zhiyuan coldly and ran away quickly.

Shen Zhiyuan still had Ji Xiao's five fingerprints on his face, he raised his hand and touched his cheek, and a grim smile suddenly appeared on his face.

Back at the company, Ji Xiao did not hesitate to push the job of cooperating with Shen to another designer, she was angry, and after a while, the manager called her to the office.

The manager looked at her with a cross eyebrow: "What the hell are you doing?" If you don't want to do it, you can always go! Did you know that Shen is now our company's biggest customer? You also gave Shen Gongzi a slap? ”

A large list of reproaches came out of the manager's mouth, and he looked at Ji Xiao angrily, and almost returned the slap to Shen Zhiyuan.

Ji Xiao sneered, this is the law of social survival, no one will care what things are going on, only someone will care about their own interests.

Ji Xiao looked at the manager and roared: "Enough!" ”

She was so loud that even the people outside the manager's room could hear it, and their eyes were all looking this way.

"You're still yelling? I won't have to go to work tomorrow! ”

The manager was furious.

Ji Xiao looked at the manager and looked at him with a contemptuous look: "Thank you, I don't want to do it today." ”

With that, she walked out of the manager's office without looking back.

When Ji Xiao was packing up her things, her colleagues' eyes were full of curiosity and gossip, and Ji Xiao didn't care about food, she was used to this kind of vision, and only now did she realize that only idle people would care about other people's affairs in one way or another, and when they were all reduced to the point of her, all they thought about in their minds was how to survive.

It didn't take long to come to work here, so there weren't many things, so Ji Xiao walked out of the company with things on his expressionless face.

After she got out of the company, she drove tired and returned to the courtyard.

When she parked the car, Ji Xiao touched the steering wheel, this car had been with her for so long, in order to make a living, she could only choose to sell it now...

Thinking about it now, this is also a gift from Jing Moxian, and in the end, he still owes him a favor.

Ji Xiao smiled bitterly.

When he received Ji Xiao's repayment, Ye Jianan was still very surprised: "Second sister-in-law, where did you get so much money?" ”

"Don't ask so much, money, I'll give it back to you."

After Ji Xiao returned the money to Ye Jianan, he went to the hospital.

Shen Zhiyuan did a great job, she submitted several resumes to the design company in a row, but none of the companies wanted her, Ji Xiao asked, only to know that they were forced by Shen Zhiyuan's pressure.

It's okay like this, it seems that I haven't had a good rest for a long time, and I haven't taken good care of my family.

Ji Xiao pushed open the door of his grandmother's ward, put on a smile, and asked, "Is grandma better?" ”

Grandpa nodded, and his face was finally no longer as tight as it was a few days ago, "It's much better, the doctor said that if there is no problem, I can be discharged from the hospital in two days." ”

Ji Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, her grandmother was still asleep, and her face was quiet.

She put down the things in her hand, on the hospital bed on one side, Evelyn and Jing Qian lay down together and fell asleep, hearing the voice, Jing Qian woke up from her sleep, and saw that it was Ji Xiao who came in, Jing Qian got up from the bed, looked at her silently, and didn't speak.

Ji Xiao walked up to Jing Qian and hugged him in his arms, this seems to be a tacit understanding between their mother and son, because they haven't grown up by Ji Xiao's side since they were children, so Jing Qian seems to want to get mother's love.

In the past few days, because of work, Ji Xiao has obviously neglected them, but now, Ji Xiao touched Jing Qian's fluffy little head, and felt relieved.

Grandma's illness did get better quickly, and she could be discharged the next day.

Grandparents insisted on going back to Ji's town, but Ji Xiao had no choice but to nod and agree.

However, when she came out of the hospital, Ji Lingling noticed that something was wrong and asked her, "Xiaoxiao, where is your car?" ”

"Sold."

Ji Xiao deliberately said lightly.

"Sold?"

Ji Lingling's face was written with incredulity.

Ji Xiao pretended to comfort her easily: "It's okay, Mom, that car doesn't have much effect on us, so I'll sell it." ”

Ji Lingling didn't feel the slightest joy because of her words, she knew that even in the most difficult time, Ji Xiao borrowed money from others, and never thought of selling this car, although Ji Xiao never said it, Ji Lingling understood that she had always had Jing Moxian in her heart.

In the afternoon, Ji Xiao called a car to send his grandparents back to Jijia Town, and on the way back, his grandmother suddenly pulled Ji Xiao and said, "Xiaoxiao, you really have nothing with the young man surnamed Shen?" ”

"Grandma, what did you say?"

Ji Xiao raised his eyebrows.

"That kid surnamed Shen came to see me when I was sick. ”

What does Shen Zhiyuan want to do?

Ji Xiao frowned, "Grandma, I have nothing to do with him, and I won't have anything to do with him in the future." ”

Grandma looked at her with such a determined look, and she wanted to say something, but she had to give up.

After coming back from Jijia Town, Ji Xiao's brows have been tightly wrinkled, she got out of the car from the entrance of the courtyard with some tiredness, and slowly walked towards the alley, when she was about to walk to the door, Shen Zhiyuan appeared again, he held a smiling face, and looked at her with a ghost: "Xiaoxiao, the current society is very realistic, how can you live without money?" So, marrying me is the best choice for you, isn't it? ”

I don't know when Shen Zhiyuan seemed to have become such a confident look, as if the whole world was under his control.

"If you don't want to slap me again, you'd better leave now!"

Ji Xiao's face became gloomy.

Shen Zhiyuan didn't move, although it was already spring, but the weather was not warm, and not many people were willing to go out in such weather, Shen Zhiyuan looked at her and approached her step by step.

The alleys here are very narrow, and even cars can't pass through, Ji Xiao turned around, but Shen Zhiyuan was faster than her, tightly shackling her in a small corner.

Shen Zhiyuan's eyes burned: "Xiaoxiao, if you are willing to help me with this, I can help you solve the rest of the things." ”

"Let go of me."

Ji Xiao turned his head and spoke coldly.

"Jing Moxian is dead, just getting married, you don't want the two children to not have a complete family, right?"

"Let go of me."

"Xiaoxiao..."

Shen Zhiyuan wanted to say more, but Ji Xiao unceremoniously raised his leg and kicked him in the vital part.

Ji Xiao pushed him away, didn't say anything, and walked back to the courtyard quickly.

Although she didn't understand why Shen Zhiyuan had to catch her to get married, she was sure that even if she married her, it would definitely not be because of love. If he liked her, maybe they would have been together a long time ago, what else would Lu Suyao do?

Shen Zhiyuan stood there for a long time, the yin owl in his eyes was getting deeper and deeper, there was not much time left, he clenched his fists, if Ji Xiao didn't marry him, the shares in Shen Jihui's hands would fall on someone else.

He has worked hard for so long, how can he easily say give up and give up?

Shen Zhiyuan's eyes sank, gritted his teeth and said, "Ji Xiao, you forced me." ”

It was starting to get dark, and the night soon surrounded the whole world, and at the beginning of the lights, Shen Zhiyuan's car drove very fast, and when he returned to Shen's family, Shen Jihui had not left.

He sat in the office, saw Shen Zhiyuan coming back, and asked him lightly, "How are things going?" ”

"Jing's is now only supported by an Internet and games, and it won't last long."

Shen Zhiyuan said expressionlessly. The fact that he is the illegitimate son of the Shen family has made him suffer a lot, how many eyes he has suffered, and even, in the end, his mother is still entangled in the fact that he is not the rightful child of the Shen family.

Now, he has done so many things for Shen Jihui, and Shen Jihui actually wants to hand over the entire Shen family to the Shen family's legitimate son.

At the beginning, at the beginning of the establishment of the Shen family, Shen Jihui was still in prison, but most of the funds came from Shen Jihui, and even in prison, he always held most of the shares of the Shen family.

Even, Shen Jihui personally told him that if the two of them can start a family or even have a child first, then his shares will belong to whom. Such absurd words, Shen Zhiyuan is convinced, the Shen family has always been a very traditional family, so even if the mother died, she could not get the Shen family's admission, even if she gave birth to a child for Shen Jihui.

Therefore, he urgently needs a woman and a child, and Ji Xiao is just the one he can accept the most after his evaluation.

Shen Jihui nodded with satisfaction, stood up from the chair, he walked over and patted Shen Zhiyuan on the shoulder: "Yes, next, as long as the Jing clan is defeated, we can gain a firm foothold in Jingzhou." ”

Regarding the fact that Jing Moxian put him in prison, Shen Jihui has always been worried about it.

"Well, I'll make it go away."

Shen Zhiyuan's voice sounded like a cold feeling.

Ji Xiao's design is obviously very good, Shen Zhiyuan almost didn't modify it too much, just used her design, that piece of land, and soon started construction, the construction budget reached the summer, Shen Zhiyuan looked at the budget reported, and a smile appeared on his face, in the summer, he wanted to make Jing's completely disappear from Jingzhou.

This land has never belonged to anyone, it has only belonged to the strong.

Spring seems to have arrived when people are caught off guard, and the trees are beginning to sprout new shoots, and they are all tender green.

Evelyn and Jing Qian have also already enrolled, although Jing's is now in danger, the school has not ended, after Ji Xiao sent them to the school, he scattered along the surrounding roads alone.

I didn't have time to do these poetic things before, but now I have a lot of free time.

There was a smell of earth floating in the air that belonged to spring, and Ji Xiao didn't expect to meet Mrs. Jing in this place.

She seems to have aged a lot all of a sudden, and when she looks at Ji Xiao, she doesn't have much in her eyes.

Ji Xiao thought she was wrong at first, but when she got closer, she saw that it was really her.

Mrs. Jing looked at Ji Xiao, her old face couldn't hide her loneliness, she smiled at Ji Xiao: "Can you talk to me?" ”

Ji Xiao nodded.

After all, it was Jing Moxian's grandmother, and there had been unhappiness between them before, but now looking at her like this, Ji Xiao didn't plan to bother with her anymore.

Not far from the school was a park, and they found a bench to sit on.

Because it wasn't a weekend, the park was relatively deserted, with only some elderly people exercising.

Mrs. Jing sat down, and after a long time, she looked at Ji Xiao and said, "Granddaughter-in-law, if Moxian is not so busy, let him also take the time to come back and see me." ”

Ji Xiao was stunned for a moment, what did she say?

However, Ji Xiao immediately understood that everyone must have hidden the old lady and didn't let her know about Moxian.

"I'm a person, I like to be lively, now the Jing family, except for the next person, I'm alone, it's very boring, and you don't say that you will bring Xiaoqian back to see me."

She is like any ordinary old man in the world, longing for her children and grandchildren to be around her knees.

Ji Xiao never spoke, Mo Xian was no longer there, and there was no connection between them, even if she wanted to take the child back to see her, but could she still go back?

If Jing Moxian was alive, would she not be allowed to step into the door of the Jing family at all?

Ji Xiao thought so, and then smiled bitterly, now, Jing Moxian is no longer there, and it really doesn't make sense to say this.

Seeing that she hadn't spoken, Mrs. Jing turned her head and looked at Ji Xiao: "Granddaughter-in-law, where do you and Moxian live now?" ”

She was a little puzzled, there was no one in the villa on the mountain, and she asked the people of the Jing family, but the people didn't know their whereabouts.

Ji Xiao thought about it, but still stood up, "Grandma, Xiaoqian, they are on vacation, I will bring them back to see you, I still have something to do, go first." ”

She still called her grandmother, and if she stayed any longer, Ji Xiao was not sure if she would let Mrs. Jing see the fact that Jing Moxian was no longer there.

Mrs. Jing shouted at her from behind, but Ji Xiao's steps didn't stop, and she quickly left here.

When he walked to the end of the park, Ji Xiao received a phone call.

Xu Suixin's voice sounded a little tired over there, and she said, "Xiaoxiao, I'm back, can you come and help me clean up the house, I'm a little inconvenient." ”

"Well, I'll come over here."

Ji Xiao didn't ask much, and directly took a taxi to Xu Suixin's café.

She was wearing a wide maternity dress, but her belly could still be seen bulging.

Ji Xiao touched her belly, "Feel free, you're about to give birth, right?" ”

Xu Suixin shook his head: "How can it be so fast, my belly has only been more than five months, and it has not been six months." ”

Sure enough, the twins are different, and their bellies are indeed much bigger than they were at that time.

"Didn't you say that it was fun outside during the Chinese New Year, and you were reluctant to come back? This is coming back? ”

Ji Xiao chatted with her while cleaning up.

I haven't seen him for a long time, and Ji Xiao suddenly felt that he had a lot to say to Xu Suixin.

"I spent all my savings, I couldn't afford to play, so I ran back, and, you know, waiting for childbirth is very expensive, and I need to come back to earn money for having a baby."

Xu casually wiped the table for a while and sat on the sofa.

Ji Xiao was wiping the glass, and when he heard Xu Suixin say this, his heart suddenly moved: "How about I open a coffee shop here with you?" ”

"Huh?"

Xu Suixin was stunned for a moment, and then asked her, "What about the great god?" He's not going to raise you, is he? You are the mother of his child, and if he doesn't want you, he will share half of his property. ”

At the mention of Jing Moxian, Ji Xiao's subordinates suddenly paused, she turned around and looked at Xu Suixin very calmly: "He's dead." ”

"Who died?" Die of Huanji.

Xu Suixin picked up an apple on the table and took a bite nonchalantly.

"Jing Moxian."

Ji Xiao said his name.

Xu Suixin was stunned for a moment, and instantly spit out the apple that she had eaten in her mouth, she looked at Ji Xiao in surprise, and couldn't say anything: "You, what did you say?" Who died? Great, great god? ”

She looked at Ji Xiao incredulously, with a look of disbelief.

Ji Xiao nodded, she looked at Xu Suixin with a wry smile: "It's incredible, right?" However, he did die. ”

Ji Xiao spread his hands, turned around, and in his eyes, something crystal poured out, Ji Xiao wiped it off casually, and then wiped the glass.

Xu Suixin got up from the sofa with a big belly, walked to Ji Xiao, looked at Ji Xiao, she didn't ask anything, but suddenly hugged Ji Xiao in her arms: "During the Chinese New Year, your tone was so low, is it because of this incident?" ”

Ji Xiao nodded.

"Why didn't you tell me about such a big thing?"

Xu Suixin frowned.

Ji Xiao smiled bitterly: "Things have already happened, it's useless to say it, it's better to let you have a good vacation outside." ”

Even if it is, what's the use?

Ji Xiao gently patted Xu Suixin's shoulder: "I'm fine, you go over and rest, I'll do these things." ”

"Xiaoxiao..."

Ji Xiao simply put the rag in his hand aside, and helped Xu Suixin to the sofa: "You sit down, leave the rest to me, otherwise, you can go to the café and sit for a while, it's not too cold now." ”

Ji Xiao said, turned around and was about to go back to clean the glass, but Xu Suixin grabbed her, "In front of me, what are you doing?" Dead woman, as if she hadn't seen you crying, cry when you want to. ”

Xu Suixin dragged Ji Xiao on the sofa, she pressed Ji Xiao's head on her shoulder, and said, "How is it?" When you are pregnant, do you have broader shoulders? ”

Ji Xiao was amused by her words, after so many years of friends, Xu Suixin always seems to be able to easily grasp his weaknesses.

She simply leaned on Xu Suixin's shoulder and cried happily, although she had already told herself that she would no longer cry for him, but the pain in her heart was full and she still needed to pour it out.

Xu Suixin kept patting her on the back.

Enough crying, Ji Xiao continued to clean, and Xu Suixin also did some things she could.

After so long, she still didn't tell herself anything, Ji Xiao looked at Xu Suixin, and still asked: "You haven't told me, whose child is the child in your belly?" ”

"They... Oh, Xiaoxiao, in fact, I can reproduce asexually, these two in my belly, but the gods descend to earth..."

Xu Suixin wanted to continue, and met Ji Xiao's eyes, but suddenly stopped talking, she looked at Ji Xiao, and said with a little coquettishness: "Xiaoxiao, it's not that I don't want to tell you, it's just that I haven't figured out how to tell you." ”

She lowered her head like a child who had done something wrong.
