Chapter 45: Something is wrong, something is wrong, someone must have taken the wrong medicine
When Qi Xu was most panicked, the courtyard door suddenly opened. She immediately turned around and saw Jiang Hongyi walking in.
It’s over, it’s over, it’s really over this time, she won’t really be discovered...
Qi Xu was in great pain. She was afraid that Jiang Hongyi would start to question her with a cold face why she lied in the next second.
She now looked left and right, up and down, but she didn't dare to look at Jiang Hongyi.
After Jiang Hongyi closed the gate, he turned around and saw her eyes rolling around in a mess, and he felt a little funny.
It turns out that even when she is panicking, she is still so quirky, energetic and beautiful.
He tried hard to control his lips from curling up. "You're back? I was going to the market to find you, but my teammates called me to a meeting at the military headquarters halfway."
After hearing this, Qi Xu's eyes were stunned for a moment. She couldn't understand why the person who was so tough with her in the morning seemed to have changed his personality, with a soft face and upturned mouth corners.
"Huh? Oh! Okay."
Her mouth was running in front and her brain was chasing behind. After she finished speaking, she realized that her answer might be a little awkward.
"By the way, I drank the ginger soup you made, so I shouldn't catch a cold."
The next sentence made Qi Xu wonder again. Could it be that this person drank the ginger soup he cooked and accidentally damaged his brain?
"Haha, really? I cooked it while I was making breakfast."
Qi Xu felt that if he continued to stay like this, he would be scared half to death by Jiang Hongyi's mental breakdown.
As she fled to the kitchen, she turned her head to take a look, making sure that he was not possessed by a ghost. Then she turned back again, puzzled, and even raised her hand to knock on her head when she thought of the contradiction.
Dead brain, turn around!
Before she could figure it out, Jiang Hongyi and Qi Hong walked into the kitchen at the same time.
"Qi girl, how's your job search going?"
!!!
It's really a case of bringing up something irrelevant. At this critical juncture, Qi Hong started to worry about her job search.
Qi Xu almost threw the radish he was washing into the basin. "Grandpa, there's no rush. Selling mountain products can help me make some money. I'm still looking for it. Haha, I'll let you know when I find it."
"Qi Xu is right. You can't rush into finding a job. You still have to consider whether it's the right fit for you."
While she was still racking her brains to think of how to smooth things over, Jiang Hongyi took the initiative to smooth things over.
Oh my god! Mr. Gao Leng took the initiative to help her out? How scary!
Qi Xu's heart was about to jump into her throat. She couldn't understand why this person started to defend her so much.
After Jiang Hongyi smoothed things over, Qi Hong stopped asking questions and the three of them began to quietly tinker with the dishes in their hands.
After lunch, Qi Hong strolled around the yard twice and then went into the house to take a nap.
Although Qi Hong is in much better spirits now than when he was in Lingxi Village, he always feels sleepy easily and has to go to bed on time every day no matter morning or evening.
In order to delay staying in the house, Qi Xu went back to the kitchen to cut some meat for Xue Niang and her mother as a snack.
"I'll do it."
As soon as she picked up the knife, Jiang Hongyi snatched it away, and then with a flick of the knife, the large piece of meat was cut into small pieces in an instant.
Qi Xu...just stood there, opening, closing, and clenching his fingers.
To be honest, she was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a hole to crawl into.
What happened to this guy? She was really not used to him being so gentle to her.
"Give."
Jiang Hongyi cut the meat neatly, put it into the food bowls of the two snow wolves, and turned around to hand it to Qi Xu.
Qi Xu took the food bowl in a daze, turned around in a daze, placed the food bowl in front of the snow wolf and its cub in a daze, and said in a daze, "Eat."
Her mind was really stuck, she couldn't figure it out, she couldn't figure it out at all.
"Shall we talk?"
Jiang Hongyi admired her cute expression the whole time, and he felt itchy in his heart and wanted to get closer to her.
He felt that he knew the truth, and all of Qi Xu's previous abnormal behaviors had reasonable explanations.
For example, she had to rely on him to get out of Lingxi Village, for example, she agreed to his so-called expedient plan, for example, why they were safe in the photo studio, and for example, it should be her who saved him last night.
In short, in short, Jiang Hongyi now feels that Qi Xu always thinks about him, and he is a little touched, and a little moved belatedly.
"Talk...about what?"
Qi Xu's heart was in his throat. Could it be that his disguise was really discovered?
She followed Jiang Hongyi into the house in fear.
"Qi Xu, you were so worried about me this morning that you even made me some ginger soup to ward off the cold."
"Qi Xu, tell me, do you like me too?"
Jiang Hongyi took a step forward with every word he spoke.
Qi Xu was completely defeated, his brain completely shut down and he didn't know how to react.
Also? Why? He likes me?
This question suddenly popped into her mind.
"Well, wait a minute, don't get excited."
"It's just... I admit that I am attracted to you, but I haven't thought about it yet. Right now, I just want to make good money and take good care of grandpa."
The light in his eyes faded halfway in an instant. "Okay, Qi Xu, there's still a lot of time in the future. Can you please not mention leaving so easily?"
Jiang Hongyi didn't want to give up. He carefully held her sleeves with both hands, stared at her with bright and sincere eyes and said.
In Qi Xu's eyes, this look was like a Czech Wolfhound expecting its owner to nod, its eyes were watery and mixed with a little grievance.
Oh my god! Who can resist the aggrieved look of a big dog?
"Okay, I won't do that again. I won't mention it again."
Qi Xu felt that if he didn't agree, the big dog would probably show up in the next second.
"Qi Xu, thank you for promising me."
Jiang Hongyi couldn't control his inner impulse and hugged Qi Xu tightly in his arms.
Qi Xu threw herself into his arms without any preparation.
Jiang Hongyi didn't smell like the tobacco she hated, but rather a faint, translucent green of crushed pine needles and fresh, bitter hazelnuts, or perhaps a forest filled with oxygen at dawn. It was neither warm nor distant, but clean with a slightly bitter, woody aroma.
It was the smell she liked. She took two more puffs for no apparent reason, and then she felt the warmth in his arms again.
"Hehe, no, you're welcome."
Qi Xu suddenly came to her senses. Why had she suddenly been bewitched by this man? She quickly placed her hands on his lower abdomen to distance them.
Jiang Hongyi realized that his action seemed a little too sudden, so he quickly lowered his arm and took two steps back following her force.
Qi Xu felt a little nostalgic for the embrace just now, and didn't dare to stay any longer. "I, well, I have something else to do. I'll go out first."
Then, he put on his backpack and ran away.
She quickly walked back to the private corner where she changed clothes before she dared to breathe. She felt so hot that her head was almost smoking.
After changing her clothes, she went to the river to take a picture. Well, her head was now like a big red balloon, with red cheeks, red ears, and even the tip of her nose.
He quickly scooped up river water and splashed it on his face.
Calm down! Calm down! Qi Xu, you have to calm down! It's just a hug! Why is it so popular?
Jiang Hongyi was still standing in the room, feeling somewhat unsatisfied.
