Chapter 38 Meeting with Qi Xingzhou
Ji Shuang usually has a driver with her when she goes out, but seeing Jiang Ning driving over by herself, Ji Shuang took Jiang Ning's car and went back to Qi's villa together.
The Qi family villa is located in Lixiangyuan, a well-known wealthy community in Beijing.
Not only is the land here extremely expensive, but the annual property fees are also as high as six figures.
Jiang Ning remained calm, and under Ji Shuang's guidance, he parked his newly purchased affordable car among a group of luxury cars.
The wealthy communities all have independent houses, and there is a particularly beautiful garden in the front yard of the Qi family villa.
There are many flowers planted in the garden, and the flowers are colorful, which shows that it is well taken care of on a daily basis.
Ji Shuang led Jiang Ning in. When they were changing shoes at the entrance, Ji Shuang took out a pair of off-white slippers from the shoe cabinet and said, "It might be more comfortable to put on slippers. These slippers are brand new and no one has ever worn them."
Jiang Ning thanked him softly.
After changing her shoes, Ji Shuang put down her bag, made a cup of scented tea for Jiang Ning, asked Jiang Ning to sit down, and then she walked into the kitchen, took out some fruits from the refrigerator, and started washing them.
To be honest, Jiang Ning was a little surprised.
Even the Huo family has five or six live-in nannies, cooks and housekeepers who are responsible for the Huo family's three meals a day and the hygiene of the villa. If the Huo family has any needs on a daily basis, they can do it.
And the Qi family, who is of higher status, doesn’t even have a live-in nanny?
As if knowing Jiang Ning's confusion, Ji Shuang brought out the washed fruits and placed them on the coffee table, then smiled at Jiang Ning and said, "Isn't it strange? Why don't you see anyone else? Xingzhou doesn't like to have other people at home, and we don't like to have outsiders walking around at home all the time, so the cook and the housekeeper usually live in the small western-style building at the back.
The cook comes to cook three meals a day, and the housekeeper comes to clean twice a day, morning and evening. The rest of the time is their own. Unless there are a lot of guests and I am too busy, I will ask them to come and help. "
Jiang Ning nodded, and her impression of the Qi family deepened.
From the moment they met today, Jiang Ning discovered that Ji Shuang gave people a very approachable and peaceful feeling, elegant and noble but not arrogant.
Not only Ji Shuang, but also Qi Jingshan and Qi Chen, who had just had dinner together, were the same. Although the two men did not speak very often, they gave people a calm and gentle feeling.
She couldn't help but think of the time when she was at the Huo family. The Huo family had an arrogant look on their face, thinking they were superior because they were rich.
I didn’t think there was any problem before, but now after seeing the Qi family, the comparison is clear and the gap between them is obvious.
Ji Shuang turned on the TV and chatted with Jiang Ning while watching it.
The two of them were chatting while eating just now, and Ji Shuang had a certain understanding of Jiang Ning.
Before getting married, Ji Shuang was the daughter of a wealthy family who was proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. After getting married, she became a pampered rich lady.
It can be said that Ji Shuang has a wide range of knowledge reserves and has many topics to talk about with Jiang Ning.
Gradually, Ji Shuang discovered that although Jiang Ning was young, she could answer many topics fluently and had her own unique insights, especially when it came to knowledge about regional customs. Jiang Ning was even very eloquent and she was very familiar with some foreign countries.
Ji Shuang asked curiously, "Ningning likes traveling?"
"I like it, but I haven't traveled much." Jiang Ning picked up the scented tea on the table and took a sip: "I learned a lot of knowledge from books."
Ji Shuang sighed: "It's rare to see girls who like reading books nowadays. What major did Ning Ning study in college?"
Jiang Ning: “Minority language.”
Ji Shuang gave Jiang Ning a thumbs up, "No wonder she looks so elegant, Ning Ning must have been very good at studying!"
Jiang Ning smiled modestly: "No, no."
The two sat on the sofa and chatted for a while. Jiang Ning took the initiative to ask: "Where is Second Young Master Qi? Can we go see him?"
Seeing Jiang Ning bring up this topic, Ji Shuang was delighted and stood up from the sofa: "He is upstairs. Xingzhou is the same age as you, so just call him by his name from now on. Also, if you don't mind, you can call me Aunt Ji. I will protect you in Beijing from now on."
Being on good terms with the Qi family is also a kind of network resource. Regardless of whether it will be useful in the future, it is always better to have one more friend than one more enemy.
Moreover, so far, the Qi family has given her a pretty good impression.
Jiang Ning smiled and changed her words: "Aunt Ji."
Ji Shuang responded happily, and then took Jiang Ning upstairs: "Let's go to Xingzhou's room."
As she walked up the stairs, she comforted Jiang Ning, "Don't be afraid. Although Xingzhou has autistic tendencies, his emotions are very stable. He never loses his temper or gets angry."
Jiang Ning nodded and expressed her thoughts: "If Qi Xingzhou sees me and shows his repulsiveness towards strangers, I will leave immediately."
Ji Shuang said hurriedly: "It's okay, it's okay. I'm already very grateful that you can help me and come to our house."
In fact, Ji Shuang was also a little unsure.
Qi Xingzhou has been behaving out of character these days, squatting in the hotel every day. No one except himself knows why he does this.
Saying that he was waiting for Jiang Ning there was just the Qi family's own guess.
Ji Shuang only hoped that after meeting Jiang Ning today, Qi Xingzhou would not continue to go to the hotel.
He squats at the elevator door for several hours every day. Which mother wouldn't feel distressed when seeing this?
Qi Xingzhou's room was on the second floor. Ji Shuang stood in front of the closed door and knocked on it: "Xingzhou, open the door. I brought you some fruit."
After a while, there was some noise in the room.
The door was opened from the inside, and Qi Xingzhou's figure appeared behind the door.
Jiang Ning looked upwards, slightly tilting her head, and saw again the beautiful face that she had caught a glimpse of in the elevator that night. He was standing there, about 1.80 meters tall, with a handsome face and a calm expression, and he looked naturally noble and cold.
His exquisite appearance is deceptive. If you don't know that he has autistic tendencies, it's hard to tell at first glance that he's different from ordinary people. But if you look closely, you'll find that his facial expressions are a bit rigid, not as lively and flexible as normal people.
Moreover, Qi Xingzhou's beautiful eyes were too clear and without any emotion.
After Qi Xingzhou opened the door, the first person he saw was Ji Shuang standing at the door.
He lowered his head, his dark eyelashes drooped, and his eyes stared calmly at Ji Shuang's empty hands.
"The fruit is there." Ji Shuang smiled and moved aside. Jiang Ning, who was standing not far behind her, stepped forward with a small plate of fruit that Ji Shuang had just washed.
Qi Xingzhou's gaze subconsciously fell on Ji Shuang.
Ji Shuang watched nervously. In the past, at this time of day, if Qi Xingzhou saw other people at home, he would go back to his room without saying a word and would not come out even if anyone called him.
Although Jiang Ning knew that Qi Xingzhou was exclusive of outsiders, she didn't know how he did it.
Seeing Qi Xingzhou standing by the door, staring at her motionlessly, Jiang Ning took a few steps forward and tentatively handed him the plate of fruit in her hand: "Do you want to eat it?"
Then, Ji Shuang, who had been worried all the time, watched her little son, who had never shown any emotional reaction and never interacted with any outsiders. After Jiang Ning came forward, he not only kept staring at Jiang Ning, but also stretched out his hands and carefully took the fruit from Jiang Ning's hands.
Although he didn't say anything, Ji Shuang could sense a sense of helplessness and awkwardness from his actions.
I'm so stuck. Believe me, the male lead will be very cute and clingy later! He's also a spoiled brat! Don't give up on him.
