After the plane landed, Ji Qingtai met the lady who had given him a dolphin doll earlier and stepped forward to thank him.

The other party was at a loss and said that the dolphin was not hers.

"Isn't it?" Chi Qingtai was also stunned.

The man said no, then pulled a pen out of his suitcase, saying that this was the gift she was going to give. It's just kept in the suitcase and checked in, and it was taken out after landing.

Chi Qingtai held the pen, a little dazed.

Didn't the dolphin be sent by this lady?

That's what the doctor gave him? But why did he give him the doll?

Before he could figure it out, the woman's husband also took out a fountain pen and handed it to the doctor who rescued him.

Chi Qingtai: "I'm ...... with him"

He and that person just met in Pingshui, and they didn't even know each other's names.

"You're friends, aren't you?" The man handed over the two pens, his face full of gratitude, "Thank you so much to him, I wanted to give it to him in person, but the doctor disappeared after he landed, otherwise it would not be good to trouble you." ”

Chi Qingtai was silent for a moment, and finally took the pen: "Okay, I'll turn around and hand it to him." ”

Saying goodbye to the couple, Chi Qingtai left the airport with his luggage.

The secretary was waiting at the pick-up gate early, and was obviously stunned when he saw the doll in Chi Qingtai's hand.

It's not like something from Chi Kiyodai.

His boss is a very serious person, vigorous in his work, and serious in life. He has been with Chi Qingtai for 3 years, and he has never seen anything that shows his personal interest around him.

In Chi Qingtai's eyes, the interest in casual pastime is a waste of time, and the interest that is overly focused is a weakness, which is easy to be manipulated in the mall.

He is like a tight-knit working machine, where everything in life is given way for work, and if no one is watching, he often forgets to even eat.

I didn't expect that on this business trip, he would buy a cute dolphin doll and come back.

The secretary was curious but didn't ask much, took out his tablet and began to report to work.

There is a lot of backlog in the country, and Chi Qingtai took half an hour to deal with urgent projects, and decided to look at the rest in the evening.

The street scene outside the window is gradually becoming familiar, and the old house of the Chi family is about to arrive.

Soon, the sedan stopped at the door of the villa, and Chi Qingtai returned to a cold expression.

He rarely returned to the pond house as an adult, and every time he came back, it was like a war, which made him have to raise his spirit.

Chi Qingtai walked straight through the garden and walked to the door of the villa.

Before he could open the door, a dog barked nearby, and a German shepherd dog rushed towards him.

Chi Qingtai was about to dodge, when a scolding sounded behind him, and the next moment, someone rushed out and grabbed the dog leash.

"Stinky Treasure, come back!"

The half-human-tall blackback dog was forced to stop, and his mouth was not more than ten centimeters away.

Chi Qingtai looked up along the leash, the man holding the leash was only in his twenties, quite tall, dressed in black, staring at him directly.

The man took a step forward and was about to speak, but Chi Qingtai had already turned around and walked into the hall, completely ignoring the man and the dog.

The indoor heating was sufficient, Chi Qingqian sat on the sofa and played with his mobile phone, and when he saw Chi Qingtai enter the door, he immediately stood up: "Brother, are you here?" ”

Chi Qingtai nodded and sat down on the sofa next to his sister.

Not long after, the boy walking the dog followed him into the house and sat on a single seat next to the couch.

Chi Qingqian glanced at him, leaned over and whispered to Chi Qingtai: "That is Chi Yu, the illegitimate son of his father, who heard that his mother died, so he was brought back to the Chi family." ”

Chi Qingtai raised his eyes, and Chi Yu was also looking at him, and the two of them separated with a touch of their eyes in the air.

Chi Qingtai is cold, and Chi Yu is gloomy.

No one spoke again, only the German shepherd dog made a grunting sound.

It didn't take long for Ji Renqiang to go downstairs to start today's dinner.

Even if the chef presents a table of delicious food, and the maid decorates the house in a warm and romantic manner, the whole restaurant is still terrifyingly silent.

Chi Renqiang is a strong father, the Chi family is his hall, they are children, no matter what they say, they will be refuted.

At first, the siblings would explain and try to make their father understand them.

And later, they learned to be silent.

After a simple and false concern, Chi Renqiang cut to the chase: "I called you back this time to introduce Chi Yu to you." ”

Chi Qingqian put down his chopsticks and glanced up at Chi Qingtai. The latter's expression remained unchanged, and he continued to eat slowly and methodically.

No one answered, and Chi Renqiang didn't feel anything wrong, and said to himself: "Chi Yu will live at home in the future, and from now on, you will be a family." Chi Yu, call people. ”

Chi Yu put down his chopsticks and shouted "sister" to Chi Qingqian.

Chi Qingqian didn't like him, but after all, he didn't have a cold face in front of him, and responded without being salty.

Chi Yu looked at Chi Qingtai again: "I'm Chi Yu." ”

He called Sister Chi Qingqian, but he didn't want to call Brother Chi Qingtai.

Sima Zhao's heart is well known to passers-by.

Chi Qingqian glanced at Chi Qingtai nervously, but the latter's face was as usual, and a "hmm" was counted as a reply.

The atmosphere in the room was terrifyingly embarrassing, but Ji Renqiang was very satisfied with the competition between his two sons, which was the purpose of bringing people back.

He wanted Chi Qingtai to know that he was more than Chi Qingtai's son, and if Chi Qingtai was disobedient, then he would change his heir.

Chi Renqiang looked at Chi Qingtai: "I heard that your laboratory has no money, and you won't be able to pay your salary this month?" ”

Chi Qingtai lifted his eyelids and looked indifferent: "You want to lend me money?" It doesn't take much, just 10 million. ”

"Hmph, if you don't have the money, just shut down the laboratory, and turn your mind to the right path as soon as possible," Chi Renqiang was not happy, he had his own plans, "There are only a few people in our family, your sister is engaged in scientific research, Chi Yu has just entered college, and the Chi family's big industry is not all yours in the end." ”

Chi Renqiang has said this kind of thing too many times, and Chi Qingtai's ears are calloused.

If Chi Renqiang was willing to give him his family property, he would have relinquished his power a long time ago. It will not drag on until now, and even 10 million will be reluctant to lend it.

Seeing that Chi Qingtai didn't eat this big cake, Chi Renqiang began to lure again: "Anyway, you have been working blindly for so many years, you might as well close the laboratory and come to the company to help me earlier." ”

Chi Qingtai didn't want to see his clumsy acting skills, so he said coldly: "So I don't care if my mother lives or dies?" ”

These words were like a sharp thorn, and they instantly pierced Chi Renqiang's sore spot. The corner of his forehead jumped, and he slapped the chopsticks directly on the table: "That's how you talk to me?!" ”

Chi Qingtai didn't bother to quarrel with him, and walked out with his coat.

"Stop!" Ji Renqiang roared.

Ji Qingtai walked faster.

"You think I only have one son, you?" Chi Renqiang gave an ultimatum, "If you walk out of this door today, don't think about getting half of my family property." ”

Ji Qingtai stopped.

Ji Renqiang squinted his eyes proudly: "Now you know what is the most important thing, right?" ”

Chi Qingtai evoked a sarcastic smile: "After enduring it for so long, you finally said what was in your heart?" ”

Chi Renqiang: "I'm your son, I have the final say in this family!" ”

"Then you should treat this family as if there is no one like me." After Chi Qingtai finished speaking, in Chi Renqiang's surprised gaze, he left without looking back.

Pushing open the door of the villa, the cold winter wind rushed in, Chi Qingtai put on his coat and walked down the steps with a serious and cold face.

The German pastor on the ground raised his head and chased after him with his tail. It followed Chi Qingtai all the way to the door, and even wanted to follow him out of the courtyard.

Chi Qingtai raised his right hand and pressed his gloved hand gently: "Sit down." ”

Demu was well-trained and sat down almost flatteringly.

Chi Yu caught up and just saw this scene, and scolded with hatred: "Spineless guy." ”

When he raised his head again, Chi Qingtai had already turned around and left.

The driver had been waiting outside, and when he saw Chi Qingtai coming out, he immediately respectfully opened the car door.

Chi Qingtai sat down, and the driver was about to close the door, but a hand suddenly popped out.

"Chi Qingtai!" Chi Yu actually chased out, he stretched out his hand to stop the car door, his eyes were serious and eager, "I didn't come back to rob your family property." ”

"Little friend," Chi Qingtai looked at Chi Yu and smiled slowly, "You don't fight for family property, is it to find father's love?" ”

"Y-what are you talking about!" As if humiliated, Chi Yu's face turned red, "I'm here for ......"

Chi Qingtai didn't listen to his explanation, and said lightly: "I'll give you a piece of advice, don't look for things that don't exist." ”

After speaking, Chi Qingtai closed his eyes, and the driver closed the car door with great insight and drove away.

Demu chased after him, but only saw two flashing headlights.

It looked up at its master and whimpered aggrievedly.

Chi Yu touched the dog's head and lowered his eyes: "Stinky Bao, he doesn't remember you." ”

*

After leaving the old house, Ji Qingtai returned to the company to deal with the mountain of work, and worked overtime until late at night to finally finish it.

Subsequently, he looked at the financial statements of the laboratory and counted the assets in his hand, but after he couldn't squeeze out anything, he had to send a message to Fa Xiaolu Niandong.

Almost instantly, Lu Niandong's call came in.

"I'm grass, you let me introduce you to men?" Lu Niandong was still in the bar, and when he saw the news of Chi Qingtai, he was almost scared to death.

He pushed away a playmate who was entangled, held his mobile phone and walked to the bathroom: "Lao Chi, something is wrong with you, what kind of stimulation are you going to go down to the earth to support a man?" ”

"Did you drink fake wine tonight?" Chi Qingtai rubbed his eyebrows, a little helpless, "I'm looking for someone to agree to marry, not to be adopted." ”

"What is the difference between a marriage by agreement and foster care?" Lu Niandong asked rhetorically, "Isn't it just a more fashionable name?" What's more, if you agree to get married, you have to get a certificate with someone, how cost-effective, I really like men, how can I not find it with your face? Do you still need to be raised? It's almost the same when people give you money. ”

Chi Qingtai was too lazy to talk to him, and said directly: "You are well-connected, help me see if there is a suitable person." I paid 1 million to find someone to agree to marry for one year, during which we did not interfere with each other, and I automatically divorced when it expired. ”

Lu Niandong thought for a while and nodded: "Yes, there must be, but 1 million is a bit less." ”

Chi Qingtai: "I've been short of money lately. ”

Lu Dongnian didn't know what to think, and laughed: "But it's not a big problem, it's enough to rely on your face." ”

"Don't reveal my identity yet," Ji Qingtai said, "The matter of the marriage agreement should be kept secret." ”

They were all born in large families, and Lu Niandong vaguely noticed something: "Your old man is doing something again?" ”

"Well," Chi Qingtai said in a light tone, as if he was talking about someone else's family, "he brought an illegitimate child home, and said that he wouldn't give me the family property." In that case, I'll have to start first. ”

Before Chi Qingtai's grandfather passed away, he once left him a trust fund. The agreement stipulates that he will receive a valuable trust estate each year after he gets married and reaches the age of 25.

Before, Chi Qingtai was not short of money, and he never had this idea, but now the situation is pressing, and he has to rely on this money for emergencies.

Lu Niandong and Chi Qingtai are young, the two have known each other since kindergarten, and they are the only ones who know the pile of bad debts in Chi Qingtai's family. He readily agreed, and worked hard to help Chi Qingtai find a partner.

Unfortunately, the process did not go smoothly.

Although it is only an agreement to get married, after all, marriage involves many interests, and the other party needs to pass the test of character and appearance, and occasionally cooperate with him to attend the party. Chi Qingtai looked at a bunch of information, but he couldn't find a suitable object.

In the office, Chi Qingtai destroyed the materials he had seen and rubbed the swollen corners of his forehead.

His gaze swept over the dolphin doll, and he was rarely stunned for a moment. If he's not mistaken, that doctor seems to be going through a marriage urging as well?

What do you think?

Ji Qingtai quickly shook his head and threw this strange thought out of his mind.

It's just a meeting in the water.

He pulled open the drawer and stuffed the dolphin in, forcing himself to read the information. This time there was still nothing.

"Or you're going on a blind date?" Lu Niandong suggested to him, "Gay marriages have been passed for 5 years, and now there are many serious men in the circle who are on blind dates, at least they know the roots, and their character is guaranteed." ”

Chi Qingtai was a little moved.

But he is married by agreement, and he can't harm the person who really wants to get married.

He adopted this proposal, but just told Lu Niandong: "You can help me inquire if there is any kind of person who doesn't want to get married, but is forced to get married." ”

Chi Qingtai didn't have much hope, but he didn't expect that two days later, Lu Niandong told him that there really was.

"Who?"

"Xie Shu, the son of the Xie family," Lu Niandong responded, "He just returned to China this year, and his family couldn't wait to show him up." ”

"Xie family?" Chi Qingtai was a little surprised.

"That's right, it's the Xie family you think, a super wealthy family in the Beijing circle." Lu Niandong also sighed a little, "Xie Shuyun is the son of the Xie family, and rumors also say that he is very handsome, and he is a top student of Harvard Medical School." ”

Chi Qingtai sensed that something was wrong: "His conditions are so good, even if he goes on a blind date, it is not something that our class can meet." ”

The conditions of Chiqingtai are good, but compared with those rich and noble families, there is still too much gap.

"You have the point," Lu Niandong changed his words, and then said, "I heard that he was not treated well by his family since he was a child, and he was sent out of the country at the age of twelve. He has been abroad for more than ten years, all kinds of bad habits have been infected, and his private life is quite chaotic, otherwise he would not have fallen into a blind date. ”

"Anyway, it's such a person, it's up to you whether you want to meet or not."

Chi Qingtai didn't really want to go.

He has been busy with work all these years, and he has no emotional experience, and he is the most difficult to deal with this kind of swinger.

Although the Xie family is powerful and enjoys great wealth, the richer the family, the more difficult it is to control. Coupled with Xie Shula's profligate personality, it is estimated that it will be very difficult to get along after marriage.

"Forget it," Chi Qingtai shook his head, "It's better to find a boy from an ordinary family background, just be well-behaved and obedient." ”

"I don't think he's a good fit for you, too." Lu Niandong also agreed, "You have no experience in love at all, and marrying that Xie Shuyun is not just a sheep?" ”

Ji Qingtai corrected: "We just agreed to get married. ”

"Marriage by agreement is also marriage," Lu Niandong didn't think so, with a scared expression, "I specially inquired, everyone said that Xie Shuyun had a special fun, I heard that he flew abroad/leaves/children, made people have abortions, and even liked to abuse bed partners...... If you really marry him, he wants to do something to you, can you refuse? ”

"Wait," Chi Qingtai suddenly raised his head, "What did you just say?" ”

Lu Niandong: "I said that if a person like Xie Shuyun really wants to do something to you, you can't refuse at all." ”

"No," Chi Qingtai shook his head, "You just said that he flew abroad/leaves/children, made people have abortions, and even liked to abuse bed partners?" ”

Lu Niandong: "That's right. ”

Chi Qingtai was silent for a moment, and suddenly said, "I changed my mind, I want to go on a blind date with him." ”

Lu Niandong: "??? ”

"No, are you a little girl who has just reached the rebellious stage? The worse a man is, the more you love it? Lu Niandong didn't understand, "Xie Shuyun is a super scumbag, if you send a small cake to him, you will be eaten without a bite." ”

"It's just a meeting, don't spread it too much," Chi Qingtai had made up his mind, "and what kind of little cake, don't give me strange nicknames." ”

Lu Niandong didn't divert from the topic by him, he stared at Chi Qingtai's eyes, word by word: "We have known each other for twenty years, and you look really strange like this." ”

"What's weird?" Chi Qingtai remained silent, his tone was indifferent, "Isn't he the Xie family?" It's normal for me to make connections, and I might become a big customer of Sugimori one day. ”

"Is that so?"

Lu Niandong scratched his head, and felt that he had overreacted just now.

That's right, this is Chi Qingtai's style.

For good reason.

After all, this is 29 years of being single, and Iron Mask selflessly rejected Chi Qingtai from every suitor.

He couldn't imagine what it would be like for Ji Qingtai to like someone.

After Lu Niandong left, Chi Qingtai opened the drawer and took out a delicate small box.

He didn't have any thoughts about Xie Shuyan, he just promised the couple to give each other the pen and had to make this trip.
