Chapter 318 Meet Ji Chen Again
The next day, as soon as Qin Shu opened his eyes, he found that Ling Mohan was staring directly at him, his eyes were as black as ink, bottomless, not as fiery as usual, but with a hint of inquiry and suspicion.
Qin Shu was already weak-hearted, and immediately remembered the phone call from Xia Lun last night.
But she didn't fall into the trap yet, but asked shamelessly: "Am I good-looking?" β
"Well, it's good." Ling Mohan touched Qin Shu's face, the warm and tender skin made him love it, so he simply leaned over and kissed it hard, and the restlessness in his heart was gradually suppressed.
Qin Shu said in disgust: "I haven't brushed my teeth yet." β
As soon as the words fell, Ling Mohan suddenly lifted the quilt and hugged her horizontally: "Okay, brush your teeth!" β
After the two of them washed up, they went to breakfast.
Su Xiaoya and Xia Lun have not dealt with each other since yesterday, and they still haven't reconciled when they sit at the dinner table this morning, neither of them will say a word to each other, but they have to sit together again, and the awkwardness makes Sheng Shenzhou feel funny.
At this time, it is the time of spring break, the sky is clear, the wind is warm, neither feeling hot nor cold, and it is the most comfortable in the four seasons of the year.
For three days in a row, Sheng Shenzhou didn't go to the company to deal with things, and specially accompanied Ling Mohan and Qin Shu to play in the manor.
The manor is a paradise with a tranquil setting and a golf course and a huge man-made lake.
Only then did Qin Shu know that Ling Mohan was also a good player at playing the golf ball, and his marksmanship was as amazing as his marksmanship, and his swing was powerful and precise, showing the strong muscles on his arm just right.
Qin Shu and Su Xiaoya sat under the sun umbrella, one drinking milk and the other drinking orange juice, enjoying the three handsome guys playing.
Qin Shu deliberately commented: "Xia Lun's figure is good, and his long legs are quite eye-catching. β
Su Xiaoya immediately retorted: "It's so short!" β
Qin Shu sighed, bit the straw, and said with a smile: "It turns out that you are paying attention to him." β
"Not really!" Su Xiaoya hurriedly took her eyes off Xia Lun and sucked the orange juice sizzling, "Why do you want to talk about him?" From now on, you must not mention him to me again, for I will be troubled when I hear his name. β
Qin Shu had no choice but to keep her mouth shut.
Originally, she called Su Xiaoya and Xia Lun over in the hope that they could enhance their relationship, but she didn't expect that not only did not enhance their relationship, but they became more stiff.
Until the fourth day, when Ling Mohan was ordered by the chairman of the military region to go back quickly, Su Xiaoya and Xia Lun did not reconcile.
Qin Shu was reluctant to live a relaxed life in the manorβto be precise, it was the days when she was willing to accompany her without distractions, and this kind of day was only a few days, and it passed in the blink of an eye.
But she didn't show this kind of thought, so as not to interfere with Ling Mohan.
After returning to Lin Cheng, Ling Mohan ended the days of "thinking behind closed doors" ahead of schedule and immediately devoted himself to a bunch of military affairs, while Qin Shu was idle and bored in the villa, so he simply went to Old Lady Ling's side to eat and drink.
The old man wished that she would come over to eat and drink, and his happy eyes were about to narrow into a slit.
An Xiaoxiao also looked very happy, treating Qin Shu as a good girlfriend, and pulling her to talk whenever she was free.
This morning happened to be the weekend.
An Xiaoxiao came over from school, still carrying a high math textbook, and complained while writing homework: "Sister Qin, high math in college is so difficult to learn." You see, I know every number and symbol, and I don't know what it means when put together. β
Qin Shu was amused by her, looked sideways, and said, "This is the general solution to find a differential equation, I'll calculate it for you." β
An Xiaoxiao immediately handed over the pen and paper.
Qin Shu's calculation speed was very fast, and the problem solving process was written in less than a minute.
"Sister Qin, it turns out that you are so good at high school." An Xiaoxiao's tone was full of envy and admiration, and she hurriedly handed over the high math textbook, "Good sister, you can teach me these two questions again, I can't even understand this question." β
Qin Shu had nothing to do, so he taught An Xiaoxiao to do questions to pass the time, and An Xiaoxiao's way of praising Qin Shu was also very simple and direct, and he was saying all morning, "You and Ning Feng's high math are so powerful", "Ning Feng also taught me this last time", etc.
In short, three sentences are inseparable from her boyfriend Ning Feng.
Old Lady Ling couldn't listen to it anymore, shook the newspaper, took off her glasses and said, "You girl, Ning Feng at a time, hurry up and bring him back to your grandfather to see, so as not to keep chattering in our ears." β
An Xiaoxiao was shy and covered her face with her homework book: "Grandpa Ling, don't make fun of me." β
Qin Shu lifted her forehead and smiled.
The guard outside the door suddenly reported loudly: "Report to the old man, there is a person named Ji Chen who wants to see you." β
Qin Shu was stunned in her heart, and her smile slowly converged.
She was a little overwhelmed, and sat there slightly stiff, but on the surface she was very calm, and she couldn't see anything unusual.
The old man was pleasantly surprised, and said excitedly, "Let him come in." β
He had received news that Ji Chen was not dead, but his identity was unknown, he had no impression of the past three years, and he didn't even want to see the old man, so Old Man Ling didn't force Ji Chen to come to see him.
Ji Chen grew up in the military region since he was a child, and he followed Qin Shu all day long, Old Man Ling grew up watching him, and now Ji Chen is finally willing to take the initiative to see him, and the old man is happy from the bottom of his heart.
After a while, the guards walked into the courtyard with Ji Chen.
When he saw Qin Shu, a hint of surprise flashed in Ji Chen's eyes, and he couldn't bear to show it, and then greeted the old man respectfully, expressing his apology for not being able to visit his old man in time during this time.
"This is Biluochun brought back from Dongcheng." Ji Chen knew that Old Man Ling loved to drink tea, especially Da Hong Pao and Biluochun, and Biluochun in Dongcheng was the best, so he specially brought back two cans of fine tea from Dongcheng.
The old man was even happier: "Okay, well, it's hard for you to remember my old man's preferences." β
Ji Chen glanced at Qin Shu, who had never spoken, and said gently: "Important people and things, how can I forget, I am reluctant to forget." That's what you've always kept in mind. β
Old Lady Ling didn't seem to understand the hint of his previous sentence, waved his hand, and said with a smile: "This is an important thing, as long as you live well, this is the most important thing." Xiaochen, do you want to go back to the military region? β
As long as Ji Chen wants to return to the Dongcheng Military Region, the old man will be able to arrange a good position for him immediately.
Ji Chen smiled: "I like Lin Cheng a lot. β
The old man sighed in his heart, knowing that he hadn't let go of Qin Shu yet, so he couldn't say anything, so he had to change the topic and talk about other things.
Qin Shu was a little uncomfortable, and only occasionally opened her mouth to say a word or two, so as not to let the atmosphere go cold.
An Xiaoxiao is no different from usual.
She has a lively personality and is familiar with herself, and she chats with Ji Chen very well, as if she is a friend who has not been in touch with Ji Chen for three years.
Near noon, some special offerings were sent to Old Man Ling, including two fresh anchovies.
The old man laughed and said, "Xiao Chen, you came at the right time today, you like to eat anchovy the most, let the kitchen steam the fish for you later." β
"Then I'm really blessed." Ji Chen also laughed, his handsome eyebrows and eyes were particularly vivid and beautiful in the sun, "Old man, don't be in a hurry to let the kitchen steam the fish, let me cook the fish at noon today." β
The old man waved his hand: "Okay, I also want to try your craftsmanship." β
An Xiaoxiao also smiled and said, "Brother Ji Chen, can I give you a hand?" I'd like to learn from you, too. β
The old man pointed at her and scolded with a smile: "This girl must have turned her elbow outward and learned your craft to cook for her boyfriend." β
"Grandpa!" An Xiaoxiao stomped her foot in shame.
In fact, Ji Chen really wanted Qin Shu to help him, when they lived together in Dongcheng in the past, Ji Chen would cook for Qin Shu whenever he was free, and Qin Shu would wash the vegetables for him next to him, hand him the plates, and so on.
That time was Ji Chen's happiest.
Now that Qin Shu is pregnant, it is inconvenient, and he has no way to ask her for help.
Thinking of this, Ji Chen's gaze swept over Qin Shu again, and found that she had never glanced at her, so she had to hide the loss in her heart, and said to An Xiaoxiao: "No problem, I can teach you how to make delicious anchovies." β
An Xiaoxiao cheered and followed Ji Chen to the kitchen.
Ji Chen's knife skills are very good, he directly scrapes off the fish scales with a knife, and then gently cuts the belly of the fish, disposes of the internal organs and begins to clean the whole fish.
An Xiaoxiao helped him pat garlic and chop green onions, asked a few small questions from time to time, and unconsciously talked about things in advance, she said casually: "Brother Ji Chen, you definitely don't know, I've seen you before." β
Ji Chen smiled and asked, "When?" β
"When I was very young." An Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "My grandfather and I came to Ling's house as guests, and I saw you and Sister Qin playing together, and you also said that you would marry your sister as a bride when you grow up." β
Ji Chen's action of rowing the fish paused, and after a few seconds, he barely smiled: "Really? β
An Xiaoxiao asked carefully, "Did I say the wrong thing?" I'm sorry, Brother Ji Chen, I didn't mean to. I, I'm just quick talking, I don't mean anything else, you and Sister Qin are good friends, those words must have been joking when I was a child......"
"Not a joke." Ji Chen suddenly raised his head and explained seriously.
An Xiaoxiao seemed to be surprised, and stood there stunned, looking at a loss.
Ji Chen smiled and continued to draw a knife on the back of the fish: "You didn't say the wrong thing, don't be nervous, I won't blame you." β
An Xiaoxiao smiled gratefully, and she was secretly happy in her heart.
It seems that she guessed correctly, Ji Chen really likes Qin Shu very much, no wonder he has been paying attention to Qin Shu in the courtyard just now.
An Xiaoxiao had a preliminary plan in his heart, so he pretended to be tentative: "Brother Ji Chen, do you also like Sister Qin very much now?" β
Ji Chen pursed his lips and was silent.
An Xiaoxiao apologized and said, "I'm sorry, I said the wrong thing again." β
"You're not wrong." Ji Chen shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Even you can see that I still like her, and she must know it, so she doesn't want to contact me anymore, and she doesn't even want to say a word to me." β
"Brother Ji Chen, don't be like this, I feel sorry for you when I look at it." An Xiaoxiao took the opportunity to comfort him, "But Sister Qin is not wrong, she and Brother Mo Han are both married, so it is naturally not good to contact you frequently." β
Ji Chen's expression was gloomy: "I didn't want to disturb her and Ling Mohan's life, I just wanted to care more about her and let me know how she was doing." β
"That's ......" An Xiaoxiao looked embarrassed, and struggled for a while, as if she had finally made up her mind, "Brother Ji Chen, I can tell you about Sister Qin, but you can't let her know that I told you." β
Ji Chen stared at her violently, for half a minute, he couldn't resist this temptation: "Okay!" β
