"But how can I tell Mom that she'll agree to move out to recuperate?" Ji Si frowned, suddenly realizing the problem. "If I forcibly send her away, will she lose control of her emotions again?"
He paused, then added, "And even if Mom moves out to live on her own, Dad will be with her. But what if she starts crying and making a fuss looking for Xiaoshu?"
Ji Jingchen nodded. "This is also the issue I was going to talk about next, so you all should think about how to make Mom willing to move out without thinking about looking for Xiaoshu all the time."
Ji Si scratched his head with a headache, "I feel like this is an unsolvable problem. How could Mom agree to go out and recuperate in her current condition?"
A glimmer flashed in Ji Yanli's eyes. He raised his hand that was resting on the armrest of the sofa. After thinking for a few seconds, he slowly said, "The person who tied the bell must untie it, so the best solution to this problem is to let Xiaoshu come forward..."
Ji Jingchen rubbed his swollen temples and said in a deep voice, "I've thought about what you said, and when I persuaded Mom, I mentioned Xiaoshu and she would listen. But you know Xiaoshu's side, if we go to her for help because of this, then a lot of things will change..."
Ji Si spread his hands, also expressing his frustration, "So this is simply an unsolvable problem."
Ji Yanli propped up his chin and thought for a while, then said, "Why don't we just stay at home? Xiaoshu only comes back on weekends anyway, so we can just not let them meet."
"But the house is so small, and Mom has been talking about wanting to see Xiaoshu all the time, and it's impossible to stop her from going to see Xiaoshu. Besides, didn't Big Brother just say that he wouldn't let Mom go to see Xiaoshu in the afternoon? That's why Mom suddenly became so emotional..." Ji Si said.
Ji Jingchen was about to speak when he suddenly heard footsteps and voices approaching from afar.
At once, the three of them looked towards the source of the sound and saw Ye Lan and Ji Heng walking towards them.
"Yan Li, Xiao Si, why are you back?" Ye Lan said in surprise as she looked at the two people who had appeared in the living room without her knowing when.
"It's nothing, I just came back to take a look." Ji Yanli said.
"Me too." Ji Si agreed.
"Okay." Ye Lan nodded, and her eyes fell on Ji Jingchen, looking at him expectantly, "Jingchen, why don't you send a message to ask Xiaoshu when she will be back?"
Ji Jingchen met her eyes and said, "Mom, Xiaoshu won't be back soon. Why don't you let Dad take you upstairs to rest first? We can just wait here."
"Why should I rest? I just woke up a while ago. I'm also waiting for Xiaoshu to come back here." Ye Lan said as she sat down next to Ji Jingchen.
Ji Jingchen was at his wit's end now, and he couldn't force his way through. He glanced at Ji Yanli and Ji Si, signaling them to think of a solution quickly.
Ji Yanli gave instructions, nodded slightly, and said, "Mom, big brother is right. Xiaoshu won't be back for a while. I see that you don't look too good, and there's no blood at all. When Xiaoshu comes back later and sees you, she'll be scared."
"Really?" Ye Lan touched her face after hearing that, then raised her eyes to look at Ji Jingchen beside her, and asked with a worried look on her face: "Jingchen, do I really look that bad?"
Ji Jingchen hummed, "So, Mom, you need to have a good rest now. It won't be too late to see Xiaoshu when you've had enough energy."
"You're right. I'll go rest now." Ye Lan stood up. "Remember to let me know when Xiaoshu comes back."
"Okay." Ji Jingchen looked at Ji Heng beside him, "Dad, take Mom upstairs to rest first."
Ji Heng nodded, supported Ye Lan, and took her out of the living room.
Ji Jingchen watched the two people's backs as they left until they disappeared from his sight. Then he slowly withdrew his gaze and looked at Ji Yanli and Ji Si again.
"By the way, brother, where is Xiaoshu?" Ji Si asked.
Ji Jingchen said: "I went to Shen Yu's place, and he actually bought a villa across from us."
Ji Si nodded and couldn't help but slander: "Yeah, that kid is bad. He bought a house so close, isn't it just to make it convenient for Xiao Shu to meet over there."
Ji Jingchen was a little surprised, "Third brother, how did you know that Chen Yu bought a villa across from us?"
"Xiaoshu told me, and my second brother knows it too." Ji Si said.
Ji Jingchen raised his eyebrows slightly, "Why didn't you tell me?"
"I forgot." Ji Si touched the tip of his nose and turned to look at Ji Yanli, "Second brother, what about you?"
"I thought Xiaoshu would tell you, big brother." Ji Yanli picked up the tea set on the table, first filled Ji Jingchen's cup, and then poured himself a cup of tea, "When will Xiaoshu come back?"
Ji Jingchen picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea. "No one asked, I asked her to come back early."
Ji Yanli nodded, picked up the teacup in front of him, and drank the tea leisurely.
Seeing this, Ji Si stood up and said, "Big brother, second brother, you guys drink first, I'll go upstairs to check on Xiao Meiqiu."
Ji Jingchen glanced at him and said slowly, "Little Coal Ball was taken to Chen Yu by Xiaoshu."
"What?!" Ji Si paused, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes, "He even brought the little coal ball with him!"
Ji Yanli tapped the wall of the cup with his slender fingers. "Okay, let's think about how to solve this problem with Mom first."
After hearing what he said, Ji Si sat down on the sofa again, leaning against the back of the sofa with a headache. "The easiest way to deal with this matter is obviously to let Xiaoshu come forward and talk to Mom... She must be listening to Xiaoshu now..."
As soon as the words fell, a familiar voice suddenly came from my ear, "Who must listen to what I say."
The three of them were stunned for a moment when they heard the words, and looked in the direction of the sound, and saw Li Shu walking towards them slowly with the little coal ball in her arms.
Ji Si coughed lightly, feeling inexplicably guilty. "Sister, you scared me. How come you came in without making any noise?"
Li Shu raised her delicate eyebrows slightly, walked to the empty seat on the sofa and sat down, placing the small coal ball on the ground. "Is it possible that you two were too engrossed in your conversation?"
"Okay." Ji Si said.
As soon as Little Coal Ball's limbs landed on the ground, he walked towards Ji Si with his tail wagging, rubbed his legs with his body, then lay down on the ground, turned over, revealing his black belly.
Ji Si knew that this was the posture that Xiao Meiqiu used to ask him to touch him, but he didn't expect that this guy still remembered him after not seeing him for these days.
Seeing that Ji Si didn't make any move, Little Coal Ball seemed a little dissatisfied and meowed at him twice.
Ji Si's expression softened instantly, and he stretched out his arm and began to stroke its belly.
Li Shu was also quite surprised to see this. She obviously didn't expect that Xiao Meiqiu actually liked Ji Si.
