Chapter 18: Ex-Boyfriend

Cheng Ningyue felt that this person was sometimes more uncertain than the eldest aunt.

There was only a slight sound in the restaurant from time to time, and when he was about to finish eating, Ye Xingzhi said, "You accompany me to the Ji family's banquet tomorrow night." ”

Hearing the word 'Ji', Cheng Ningyue's heart tightened slightly, nodded, and asked, "Is it the Ji family in the south of the city?" ”

"Yes."

Ye Xingzhi had already finished eating, wiped his lips with a tissue, and rarely explained to her: "The young master of the Ji family came back from abroad and officially took over the family business, and the old man of their family wanted to expand his contacts for him, and the invitation letter was sent over last week." ”

There is only one young master in the Ji family, Cheng Ningyue knows, and his name is Ji Ci.

Cheng Ningyue nodded, "I know." ”

Ye Xingzhi saw that her mood was a little wrong, and just wanted to ask a few words, Cheng Ningyue had already gotten up with the dishes and chopsticks and entered the kitchen.

……

It was almost eleven o'clock when I got to bed after taking a shower.

Cheng Ningyue didn't feel sleepy, and after tossing and turning, she couldn't help but get up and take her mobile phone to download and log in to her Weibo.

The account was applied for when I was in college, and it recorded the daily life of myself and my first love, and I didn't have any fans.

Later, after breaking up with that person, Cheng Ningyue deleted the Weibo software from her mobile phone.

She still remembered that day, Ji Ci asked her, "Don't you really plan to go with me?" ”

Cheng Ningyue shook her head, took the initiative to hug him for the first time on the campus of the university, and said, "Have a good trip." ”

At that time, she didn't have the courage to go with Ji Ci without hesitation, her English was not good, and she needed a lot of money to study abroad, and Lan Meiting would never give her this money, and she was not sure if Ji Ci would still have the same feelings for her after she went abroad.

Nineteen-year-old Cheng Ningyue had a lot of worries in her heart, so she didn't have the courage to make a desperate bet.

After he left, they lost contact with each other.

I didn't expect to hear the news of my ex-boyfriend again after a few years, and I actually heard it from my current husband.

And this meeting, which she was not looking forward to, she had to go.

……

Early the next morning, Ye Xingzhi went out and came back from a morning run, took a shower and ate breakfast, and went upstairs to deal with business for more than half an hour.

It was almost ten o'clock in the morning, and Cheng Ningyue hadn't gotten up yet.

Although Mrs. occasionally sleeps lazy, she basically doesn't get up at ten o'clock, and Sister-in-law Tang can't help but be a little worried, afraid that Mrs. is sick.

I was about to go upstairs to have a look, when the gentleman came down.

Sister-in-law Tang's eyes rolled, and she hurriedly said, "Mrs. hasn't gotten up yet, I don't know if she's not feeling well, can Mr. go and take a look?" ”

Ye Xingzhi originally wanted to go downstairs to smoke a cigarette in the yard, but he said lightly to Sister-in-law Tang's worried eyes, "I'll take a look." ”

He turned and went upstairs.

Cheng Ningyue's room was locked from the inside.

Ye Xingzhi's eyebrows sank when he didn't unscrew the doorknob, who should he be, I haven't seen her lock it when I slept before!

I took the key and opened the door, the bedroom was dark and gloomy, the curtains were impenetrable, and I could only see the woman curled up in the corner of the big bed covered with a thin quilt.

"Cheng Ningyue."

I screamed twice in a row, but the woman on the bed didn't respond.

Ye Xingzhi frowned impatiently, walked over and opened all the curtains, and the bedroom suddenly lit up.

"Hmm......"

Cheng Ningyue muttered a few times, her eyes were stimulated by the bright light, her eyelashes moved, and she woke up.

The throat was dry and astringent, and his head was a little drowsy, and he subconsciously raised his hand and touched his forehead, which was a little hot.

"Uncomfortable?"

Ye Xingzhi stood on the edge of the bed and looked condescendingly at the pale woman, leaned over and poked her forehead, it was hot.

"It's fine."

As soon as Cheng Ningyue spoke, her voice was hoarse like a dilapidated bellows.

Ye Xingzhi: "It should be a fever, I'll ask Sister-in-law Tang to get you some antipyretics." With that, he turned and went out.

Cheng Ningyue lay down for a few more minutes before slowly getting up.

After a while, Sister-in-law Tang came up with a thermometer and antipyretics, and muttered: "If you go to bed with the air conditioner on at night and don't cover the quilt, Mrs. should measure the temperature first." ”

Cheng Ningyue clamped the thermometer under her armpit.

Five minutes later, I took off the thermometer and saw that it was 38 degrees Celsius, which was a low-grade fever.

Sister-in-law Tang asked her if she needed to go to the hospital to hang up water, Cheng Ningyue shook her head and asked Sister-in-law Tang to go out first, she wanted to continue sleeping.

Sister-in-law Tang told her to remember to take medicine later, and said that she would go downstairs to boil some millet porridge for her, and turned around and went out.

In the bedroom, the curtains have been drawn and the windows have been opened.

Cheng Ningyue sat at the head of the bed and slowly tilted her head to look outside.

She underestimated her body, she got up in the middle of the night last night to take a cold shower, thinking that she would burn in the morning and be unconscious.

If I take the medicine now, I guess I will be fine in the afternoon.

Cheng Ningyue picked up the cup and drank some warm water to moisten her throat, her eyes fell on the fever reducer on the side, she slowly picked it up, opened it and took out two of them, wrapped them in a tissue and threw them into the trash.

……

The Ji family, like the Ye family, is a veteran family in Loucheng.

But I don't know how, since more than 30 years ago, the Ji family seems to have been cursed, and none of the children born can grow up peacefully.

Later, he finally survived, and Mrs. Ji was like a baby, holding it in the palm of her hand for fear of falling, and holding it in her mouth for fear of melting.

The only young master of the Ji family, Ji Ci, few people in the circle have seen him.

However, there are many legends about him.

When Shen Yunjing pushed the door in, what he saw was a man who was lazily smoking in the box.

"Yo, I learned that I was going to your wife's ex-boyfriend's house tonight, so I don't have to be so upset, right?"

Shen Yunjing opened his mouth to tease as he walked over and sat down across from him.

Ye Xingzhi was thinking about something else just now, but he didn't hear Shen Yunjing's other words, so he heard the word 'boyfriend'.

"What ex-friend?"

The fruit bowl on the coffee table had basically not been moved, and Shen Yunjing picked up a piece of cantaloupe and stuffed it into his mouth, raising his eyebrows.

"Young Master of the Ji family, don't you know that he is your wife's ex-boyfriend?"

“……”

Looking at Ye Xingzhi's expression, this girl probably really doesn't know.

Shen Yunjing suddenly wanted to give himself a big mouth, knowing that he wouldn't mention this stubble just now.

Ye Xingzhi's face had already turned cold, the cigarette butts on his fingertips were thrown into the ashtray, and he looked at him coldly: "Ji Ci is Cheng Ningyue's ex-boyfriend?" ”

"Uh, this ......"

Shen Yunjing scratched his head: "When I was in college, I heard later that it seemed that the old lady of the Ji family had to force Ji Ci to study abroad, and the two broke up, it was several years ago." ”

Ye Xingzhi's eyebrows were heavy, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
