Chapter 29
It's no wonder Chi Qi was suspicious. He was a fast reader, usually finishing ten lines at a glance and only remembering the general plot. Not to mention this kind of bloody article full of misunderstandings, reading the introduction and table of contents was equivalent to reading the entire article.
There is no need to look more closely.
What is going on?
With doubts in mind, Chi Qi reopened the novel, trying to find the "reversal" of the plot.
He was not the only one who was surprised. Xia Xianyin also did not expect Xia Ping to say that.
But after a moment, she figured out the other party's purpose of doing this: to avoid being involved with Xie Yuhe again.
When she was found to be pregnant, her whole family advised her to abort the baby so as not to ruin her future. She also knew in her heart that aborting the baby and putting the past behind her was the best option.
But Xia Xianyin thought about it for a long time, pondered for a long time, and struggled for a long time, and finally chose to give birth to the child silently.
Her family members were very disappointed in her. On the one hand, they said she was confused and not in a clear mind, but on the other hand, they couldn't help but feel sorry for her and worried about the suffering she would endure as a single mother.
Xia Xianyin knew that this road was not easy to walk, so when she made the decision, she was prepared to face everything alone. She didn't expect that Xia Ping would pat his chest and assure in front of the whole family: he has grown up and can take care of his sister and nephew.
Support her from beginning to end.
With a thousand thoughts in her mind, Xia Xianyin blinked, then held Xia Ping's hand and silently comforted him.
Xia Ping put his arm around his sister's shoulders and moved closer to her.
This scene, in Xie Yuhe's eyes, took on a completely different meaning.
The intimate interaction between the two, their familiar postures, and the atmosphere between them are impossible for others to intrude upon.
Yes, it’s been six years, and people are looking forward, abandoning the past and starting a new relationship. It’s normal, isn’t it?
Besides, Xia Xianyin is excellent and beautiful, with countless advantages. She deserves a better person. It is the greatest luck to have had him before. What qualifications does he have to ask her to stop moving forward?
He is the only one who stays in the past, and fortunately, it is only him.
After Xia Ping vented, he gradually calmed down and added stiffly: "What I mean is that she is An An's biological mother. Whoever she chooses is An An's father."
As if in slow motion, Xie Yuhe slowly raised his head, a tiny glimmer of hope in his eyes, and asked, "You chose him, right?"
"right."
Xia Xianyin looked away, unwilling to meet his dark eyes.
It was a very light word, but it hit Xie Yuhe's heart as heavy as a thousand pounds. His eyes dimmed, and he lowered his eyelashes, trying his best to keep calm.
After a while, he finally found his voice and squeezed out the words from his throat, "It's fine. I wish you happiness."
Xia Xianyin said calmly: "I will be happy without your disturbance."
She just wants to live a stable life with An An.
The damage that had been done could not be undone. Xie Yuhe now only wanted to do his best to compensate her. "I'm sorry, give me three days. I will investigate what happened back then and then do my best to make it up to you... If you don't want to see me, I promise that I will never appear in front of you again."
"I'm leaving."
Xia Ping interrupted him. He didn't want Xia Xianyin to have any contact with Xie Yuhe. He was afraid that she would be hurt again. He twisted her shoulders forcefully and said, "You have been out for so long and haven't returned yet. An An misses you very much."
Hearing An An, Xia Xianyin didn't care about anything else, suppressed all emotions, turned around and left.
Xie Yuhe froze in place, staring at the backs of the two people leaving. Waves of pain came over him, and boundless bitterness enveloped him, making him feel suffocated.
The protagonist's back was about to disappear, but Chi Qi was still wondering in his heart.
[I just heard Xia Xianyin call that boy Xiao Ping... Xiao Ping? Xia Ping? But Xia Ping is Xia Xianyin’s biological brother? If I remember correctly, orthopedic papers are not allowed to be written, so Xia Ping is definitely not An An's father, and Xia Xianyin also admitted that Xie Yuhe is An An's father? Then why did Xia Ping say that? What is going on? 】
The logic really doesn't make sense, and Xie Mu started thinking along the same lines as Chi Qi without him noticing.
【I see! 】
Chi Qi shouted and wanted to clap his hands excitedly.
[Xia Ping knew that Xie Yuhe had lost his memory, so he deliberately lied to him by saying that he was An An's father. The effect was obvious. Xie Yuhe was almost broken. Even through the green plants, I could see the deep and indissoluble sadness in his eyes. 】
“…”
Very good, Xie Mu found a new aspect to praise Chi Qi for – his excellent eyesight.
[It feels more interesting than Shura Field. I am looking forward to its subsequent development. There are just too many misunderstandings between the two. However, most of them were created by Xie Yuhe's parents, who recently forced Xie Yuhe to get married. Alas, Xie Yuhe encountered many obstacles in his pursuit of his wife. 】
He reviewed the whole thing in his mind and decided to visit the hospital more often in the near future, hoping that he might encounter another "surprise" one day.
When he finished his imagination, his palm was scratched. Chi Qi lowered his head suddenly and found Xie Mu staring at him.
He moved his gaze downward again.
[Damn it, why am I still holding Mr. Xie’s hand? 】
Chi Qi pulled out his fingers as if waking from a dream, and pretended to be busy looking around. There was no one around, and all he saw was lush green plants. He pointed in a direction and said, "Mr. Xie, shall we go over there?"
Xie Mu nodded normally, pressed the switch on the armrest, and drove over there.
The two of them wandered around aimlessly, the gentle breeze mixed with the faint scent of flowers made people feel relaxed and happy.
About half an hour later, Shen Wanji sent a message asking them to come back.
Chi Qi got off the wheelchair, went around the back of the wheelchair, and pushed the man back to the ward.
The nurse was waiting inside in advance. After receiving the instructions, he carried Xie Mu to the bed and provided daily care.
Chi Qi was watching nearby as the nurse dripped essential oil onto her hands and rubbed them for a few minutes before massaging the man's legs.
The pale skin turned a faint red due to repeated kneading, and the complexion was visibly much better.
Massage is a boring and long process. Chi Qi quickly lost interest in the repetitive operations. He stared at the nurse's chest muscles in a daze.
Although there was no mental reminder, the look was too obvious. Xie Mu noticed it as soon as he tilted his head slightly. He frowned and felt inexplicably unhappy.
The nurse who had been observing her employer's expression felt nervous and asked hurriedly, "Mr. Xie, is my massage uncomfortable?"
Seeing Xie Mu shook his head, indicating that it was not his problem, the nurse was obviously relieved and pressed more seriously.
After the routine massage was completed, the nurse left the room.
Just then, Shen Wanji came back with a lot of bags. Chi Qiying stepped forward, took the things and put them on the table, and heard her complain, "I'm so mad."
Chi Qi didn't ask any further questions and stood aside obediently.
Shen Wanji wiped the sweat from her forehead, sat down on the stool angrily, picked up her phone and typed away, as if something bad had happened to her. After she finished sending the message and calmed down, she spoke, "Xiao Chi, you've worked hard today, you should leave first."
Chi Qi wanted to say that it wasn't hard, after all, he didn't do anything, but what he blurted out was, "It's not hard, it's just a hard life."
Chi Qi: “…”
Shen Wanji: “…”
Chi Qi let out a sharp explosion.
[Ah ... 】
Xie Mu, who was innocently implicated, heard: "..."
Chi Qi was so embarrassed that he didn't know what to do. He was ready to run away, "I'm leaving first. Goodbye, Aunt Chen."
"Hey, wait." Shen Wanji stopped him, "Xiao Chi, don't you have Xiao Mu's contact information yet?"
Chi Qi failed to run away, and subconsciously began to look for a hole on the ground, "Mr. Xie? I haven't added him yet."
[Why is this land so flat?] There is not a single hole T_T】
"Then Xiaochi, add Xiaomu's contact information. Don't call him Mr. Xie. It's too unfamiliar. Xiaomu is older than you. Just call him brother."
Why does this word have wavy lines?
Chi Qi pursed his lips and was unable to shout.
[Calling me brother is fine, but calling me brother~what the hell is that? The key point is that people may not want me as their cheap brother, right? 】
But Shen Wanji urged him, "Don't be shy, Xiaochi, just call me brother."
Chi Qi: “…”
I really can't say it out loud.
But he couldn't find a suitable reason to refuse, and Shen Wanji was very good to him. Just as she said, it was very easy to call him brother.
Chi Qi thought he was not a pretentious person, but it was strange, as if he was cast under some kind of magic. To be more precise, he could not call Xie Mu "brother".
[No, it will only be more embarrassing if we delay any further.] 】
After he had prepared himself mentally, he closed his eyes and shouted with full energy, "Brother Xie Mu!"
Shen Wanji: “…”
I asked you to call me brother, but I didn't ask you to show the spirit of Zhang Fei and Guan Yu who swore brotherhood.
She twitched her lips and said to herself, "Speaking of which, you two almost grew up together as childhood sweethearts, but now it can be considered a continuation of your fate."
In order to prevent Shen Wanji from making other requests out of the blue, Chi Qi just smiled and nodded without responding.
After successfully adding Xie Mu's contact information, he finally left as he wished.
The ward became quiet again.
Shen Wanji picked up a sentence and started chatting while peeling it, "How do you feel today?"
Xie Mu lay on the bed with a dull expression.
Shen Wanji tutted, "Hearing Xiao Chi calling you brother, you must be secretly happy in your heart."
Xie Mu closed his eyes and lay down.
"Don't pretend. Don't I know what you are like?" She changed the subject and said, "Open your mouth. This orange is quite sweet."
Xie Mu opened his mouth, and many white orange peels were stuffed into it.
“…”
Shen Wanji looked at him with a smile, "Don't waste it."
Xie Mu said weakly: "Mom, I have a headache."
He tried to recall the only remaining maternal love.
Chen Wanji ignored him and said, "Hey, can't you speak? Then why did you pretend to be dumb just now? You knew that your husband's duck voice was too unpleasant and you were afraid of scaring people away."
Xie Mu: “…”
What nonsense are you saying? It hurts your mother's heart.
Shen Wanji restrained his smile, "Mom also likes Xiaochi very much, he is fun and interesting, I feel younger when I am with him."
She pondered for a moment and said, "How about this? You shout 'Long live Her Majesty the Queen' and I'll give you a big gift package. It'll be a sure win for you."
"."

Chi Qi had just arrived home, and before he opened the door, he heard the naughty child's heart-wrenching screams, and the smile on his lips disappeared instantly.
[I’m so annoyed. My aunt is here again with her grandson who hates people and dogs to give me a lecture. 】
In the living room, Chi's mother was talking to his aunt Song Wanyi.
Surprisingly, my second sister Chi Sulu also came home today.
The brother and sister looked at each other, and saw the words "life is hopeless" in each other's eyes.
If she/he had known that her/his aunt was coming, she/he would not have gone home!
The type who would rather sleep under a bridge at night than go home!
Chi Qi suppressed the urge to roll his eyes and politely called out, "Good evening, auntie."
Song Wanyi's attitude was cold. She glanced at Chi Qi sideways and raised her chin high. "Xiao Qi, I'm not saying anything bad to you. I am your elder after all. You didn't even smile when you saw me. At the very least, you don't respect me. At the most, you are unfilial. You should know that in ancient times, the younger generation had to kneel down to greet the elders."
When people reach middle age and are still good for nothing, they can only boast of their age.
Chi Qi tried to be calm and said: "Aunt, you also said that it was ancient times. The Qing Dynasty died long ago, and the feudal customs have been abolished."
[Stop wrapping your cerebellum.] 】
Chi's mother was naturally unhappy that her son was being lectured in person, but due to the blood relationship, she didn't want to make things too ugly.
Song Wanyi was used to hearing flattery, and asked in disbelief, "Xiao Qi, are you talking back to me?"
Chi Qi raised a fake smile, "No, no, you misunderstood."
Song Wanyi continued to nag, "I heard that Xiao Si found a man to marry some time ago? It's fine if the child is naughty, but Chu Ying, you didn't do anything about it and just let a dubious person into the house. It would be so ugly if word got out that two men were having an affair."
[I'm really impressed. My whole family is very satisfied with my sister-in-law, but my aunt started spreading rumors as soon as she opened her mouth. If she makes my sister-in-law angry and runs away, be careful that my eldest brother will come to your house and hang himself. 】
[Still chattering, still chattering, my aunt is really nosy. It seems like she wants to taste the saltiness of every dung truck that passes by. 】
While Song Wanyi's attention was not on him, Chi Qi quietly rolled his eyes to express his dissatisfaction.
I'm so annoyed!
Chi's mother was originally very angry, but her youngest son's complaints were too sharp, and she almost couldn't hold back her expression. She paused for a few seconds before speaking, "This is my family affair, so I won't bother you, an outsider, to worry about it."
The implication was that she should stop interfering.
But Song Wanyi couldn't tell the difference between good and bad words. After criticizing one person, she immediately changed the target, "Xiao Qi, don't learn from your elder brother. The right thing to do is to get married and have a child early..."
Chi Qi was already upset, and when he got home he couldn't even have some peace and quiet, which made his mood even worse.
[Don’t mind other people’s sexual orientation. She’s not dating your dad. 】
Chi's mother: "..."
Although the words are rough, the logic is not rough, but...but what you said is too rough.
