After playing along with him in a show of fatherly affection, Yun Qi opened the door to the ward and saw Yun Zhen sitting on a bench outside.
Upon seeing him come out, Yun Zhen immediately stood up and walked over: "What did my dad say to you?"
Yun Qi ignored him and took a step back to avoid his outstretched hand: "Brother, Dad wants you to go in. I'm going back to the company first."
Upon hearing Yun Jintian call him in, Yun Zhen glared at him before re-entering the ward. Whether intentionally or unintentionally, the door to the ward was ajar, and the conversation inside could be clearly heard.
"Dad, are you really going to let that illegitimate son manage the company?"
"That was just a trick I used to deceive him. Don't worry, the company will still be yours in the end."
"Does it hurt? Dad was just too angry, that's why he hit you..."
A warm conversation between the two could be heard from inside the ward. Yun Qi tugged at the corner of his mouth, then turned and left.
While waiting at the traffic light, he closed his eyes and leaned back in his seat, suddenly feeling a little tired.
Suddenly, I miss her a lot.
The light turned green, and the cars behind him, seeing that he wasn't moving, couldn't help but honk their horns to urge him on.
Amidst the cacophony of horns, Yun Qi opened his eyes, a resolute glint in them. He started the car, turned ahead, and drove in the opposite direction from the company.
...
On the other side, Lin Hejing booked the top floor of Jue Se, which is a large outdoor swimming pool. Combined with the barbecue, it really enlivened the atmosphere.
"Looks like our Brother Jing has really gone all out this time."
Tu Ling changed into a red bikini, and the lights shone on her body, highlighting her jade-like skin.
But after much persuasion, she finally agreed to put on a white blouse over her clothes.
Lin Hejing had already changed into her swimming trunks. Hearing Tu Ling's words, she quickly approached with a grin: "How could that be? Sister Ling will definitely give me an insider price."
Tu Ling was amused by his shameless appearance and raised her foot to kick him, but he dodged it first.
Looking up, he saw Xie Kerong, who had changed into a black swimsuit, walking out. He was stunned and was then kicked hard by Tu Ling, who caught up with him.
After changing out of her racing suit, Xie Kerong's long, straight legs immediately attracted the attention of many people.
Xie Kerong looked around and then fixed her gaze on Su Ping, who was standing around the barbecue with Tie Niu, eagerly waiting. She smiled indulgently and walked over to her.
"It smells so good."
Su Ping only ate a bowl of noodles today, and it has already been mostly digested. The smell of barbecue makes her stomach rumble.
The chicken wings on the rack were sizzling as they roasted. Su Ping had Tie Niu use his height advantage to block them, in order to prevent anyone from sneaking up on them.
"So that's why I couldn't find you. You were hiding here."
Xie Kerong's laughter rang out from behind, and before Su Ping could turn around, she instinctively took a step to the side, blocking the barbecue grill.
It'll be ripe soon, I can't let someone else snatch it away.
Seeing this, Tie Niu followed suit and took two steps forward, blocking Su Ping and the barbecue grill behind him, looking at Xie Kerong with a wary expression.
Xie Kerong was amused by the two of them, and the more she looked at Tie Niu, the more satisfied she became.
“Little sister, what I said is right, isn’t it? We don’t need to hang ourselves on one tree. Look at the one you’ve found now, he’s quite pleasing to the eye.”
It seems that Shen Jiayu really stepped on her landmine that time, praising Tie Niu while not forgetting to put down Shen Jiayu.
Su Ping nodded in agreement. Indeed, crickets could improve one's mood.
"What are those two beautiful women whispering about behind our backs?"
Lin Hejing seized the opportunity to walk over here, her eyes fixed on Xie Kerong, her little thoughts practically written all over her face.
Xie Kerong cut to the chase, looking at him and saying, "What's wrong? You want to pursue me?"
Lin Hejing didn't expect her to be so direct, and for a moment she didn't know how to respond. After a long while, she finally managed to utter a sentence.
"So, are you easy to pursue?"
Xie Kerong laughed and walked closer to him. Lin Hejing watched her face get closer and closer, and his heart started pounding.
He seems to be genuinely interested.
"That depends on how you pursue her."
After Xie Kerong finished speaking, she stared straight at Lin Hejing. Su Ping couldn't tell for a moment who was interested in whom; the two were evenly matched.
After the two looked at each other for a moment, Lin Hejing suddenly said, "It's my honor."
The two seemed to have reached some kind of consensus, and then Xie Kerong looked at Su Ping, who hadn't said a word, and asked, "Little sister, are you really not planning to go down for the swim?"
Su Ping could smell the aroma of the chicken wings getting stronger and stronger, so she quickly waved her hand and said, "I won't go. Besides, Tie Niu's hand is injured, so I'll stay here with him."
Lin Hejing thought she was creating an opportunity for the two of them to spend time together, and secretly gave Su Ping a thumbs up as Xie Kerong walked towards the pool.
"My dear sister, now that I'm no longer single, I'll treat you to a meal first!"
Su Ping quickly waved her hand to signal him that he could leave, otherwise her chicken wings would burn!
After finally getting them into the pool one after the other, Su Ping quickly turned around, grabbed two skewers of grilled chicken wings, and gave one to Tie Niu.
"Is this edible?"
Tie Niu watched her put the chicken wing to her mouth to cool it down and asked curiously.
Su Ping was dumbfounded and asked him, "Haven't you ever had barbecue before?"
Tie Niu shook his head; he had indeed never eaten it, or rather, he wasn't allowed to.
Why aren't we allowed to eat it? Tie Niu was stunned when he realized this thought, and when he tried to think about it more deeply, his head started to hurt again.
Is it really necessary to get so worked up over just one chicken wing?
Poor child, he's never even had barbecue.
Feeling that it was time to eat, Su Ping hadn't even opened her mouth to take a bite when she suddenly saw several people walking in from the entrance. The person walking in front looked so much like the doctor next to Shen Jiayu.
Chen Qi and his group heard that someone had taken over the contract, so they came up to take a look out of curiosity. They stared at Su Ping, who was holding a chicken wing and about to eat it.
His gaze then fell on the man standing next to Su Ping, who was also holding a chicken wing.
interesting.
She shouldn't have gone out today!
Su Ping felt like dying. She tried to pretend she didn't see him, but then she noticed him talking to someone next to him before striding over.
"Pingping, did you know that Ayu and I were having dinner here tonight, and you came here on purpose to surprise Ayu?"
Shen Jiayu has returned to China?
Su Ping blinked, thinking of the box about Gu Lan that she had sent him. It wasn't impossible that Shen Jiayu might have changed his mind and come back after seeing it.
But given the current situation, it's not appropriate for her to meet him.
[Don't panic, host. He's bluffing. Shen Jiayu won't be back until tomorrow night.]
