This time, he miscalculated. Qi Taiyue was embarrassed in front of his foolish younger brother, but Qi Yan was not about to let go of the opportunity to mock his second brother. He stopped pretending and Shan Song could hear his extremely arrogant laughter even through two doors.
Qi Taiyue gritted his teeth, narrowed his eyes, and shifted his gaze from Qi Yan's face to scrutinize the room, not missing a single corner. Finally, he found something amiss in Qi Yan's house and asked, "Where is Professor Luan?"
Qi Yan finally finished laughing and raised an eyebrow, saying, "I'm going to go play with my sister-in-law."
This time I did inform him! I was just waiting for you to ask. Seeing that Qi Taiyue didn't speak, Qi Yan took the initiative to add, his eyes were exceptionally sincere, and his tone was exceptionally irritating: "Teacher Luan said that Second Sister-in-law went too! Didn't your wife tell you?"
Qi Taiyue practically spat out the words through gritted teeth: "I told you."
Luan Yining and the others also went. It seemed that the manor was more lively than he had expected. Shan Song was twirling his phone in his hand. After watching the two brothers bicker for a few more minutes, he finally remembered his role as a half-elder brother and announced to them, "We're going too."
Qi Yan and Qi Taiyue turned to look at him simultaneously: Going to see your wife at such a crucial time? What did you teach them before?
Ignoring his younger brothers' resentment, Shan Song naturally stood up and dusted off imaginary dust, saying, "Rong Mo is going too."
manor.
Tong Zhao and the others were gathered together enjoying hot pot. The door was wide open, and the room was bustling with activity. Jiang Li's loud voice echoed down the corridor: "If you ask me, we should just start a live stream and confront them one by one. A-Mo and my brother will handle the rest..."
"Great idea!" A familiar voice followed immediately. Shan Song and the Qi brothers exchanged a glance. Why was this guy joining in the fun?
Jiang Li, pleased with the appreciation and approval, raised her voice a little louder: "Right, right!" Jiang Leqi chimed in, echoing his father's sentiments: "Right, right!"
"..." Anyone with eyes can see who this little brat learned it from.
With a smile in his eyes, Rong Mo quickly walked a few steps and entered the house first, followed closely by the others. Inside, the hot pot was steaming, and the sight of several tall and strong Alphas carrying things was too conspicuous.
Tong Zhao's gaze landed on her husband, and the corners of her mouth unconsciously turned up. She hadn't seen him for several days, and he had said he was very busy when she called him this morning. So he was planning a surprise?
Shan Song smiled at him, and was about to speak when Qi Changzhou interrupted him, pointing and saying disdainfully, "Hey! We only have enough food for 6 people, you have too many of you."
"Yes!" Jiang Li exclaimed, protecting the pot. "How can they come here at the perfect time to eat something ready? Amo, stop them!"
Qi Changzhou whispered in her ear, "Stop Shansong first, look, your sister-in-law is about to turn against you!"
!
Jiang Li turned around abruptly and, sure enough, spotted Tong Zhao gazing deeply into Shan Song's eyes: "Ah Zhao! We need to unite!"
Still dizzy from being shaken around by the shoulder, Tong Zhao reluctantly looked away, nodded "firmly" to Jiang Li, and glanced at Shan Song out of the corner of her eye.
Jiang Li: "..."
Why does he seem like the villain who's stopping the young couple from reuniting? Jiang Li's lips twitched: "Qi Changzhou, you stop the brothers! Amo, block Shan Song!"
The people who were forced to stand in a row at the door looked at each other in bewilderment. When did these two become so familiar?
Half a minute later, the Alphas, including Qi Changzhou, were also dragged in and rushed into the kitchen to do their jobs: washing, picking, chopping, and plating vegetables...
"Not bad at all, don't slack off!" Supervisor Jiang retreated from the kitchen: "Let's keep eating, ignore them!"
"A-Ning, don't scald the meat for Qi Yan! A-Zhao, you've secretly added several bags of shrimp paste to Dan Song's pot, it'll all be overcooked in a minute! A-Hua, why are you copying them... It makes me seem so unvirtuous!!" Jiang Li complained loudly, but still honestly cooked some meatballs for her own Rong Xiaomo. If others have it, her husband should have it too!
"Ah Xuan, eat up, don't be shy, eat the vegetables, eat all the meat and shrimp paste they put in... Jiang Leqi, eat the vegetables you grab with your hands, don't give any to your little daddy!"
He was so busy that everyone laughed and each of them stuffed a chopstick into Jiang Li's mouth!
Tong Zhao counted the heads and realized that Jiang Heng didn't seem to be there: "Ah Li, should we call Brother Jiang to come along?"
"Brother..." Jiang Li pretended to be inscrutable, "Brother has something else to do, Ah Zhao will find out soon!"
Tong Zhao nodded without asking any further questions. Just by looking at A Li's mischievous expression, he could guess that what Jiang Heng was busy with at this time was probably related to the Geng family.
The Geng family has been in a state of utter chaos lately. The stock market has been in turmoil for a long time due to Geng Keli's scandal. Under pressure from the Shan and Rong families, Geng Qiushi has gradually gained power, but the Qin family is still waiting for an opportunity to make a move. This has resulted in him being overwhelmed with legal troubles and unable to find any peace of mind.
In contrast, Shan Song and his companions, completely detached from the battle, could practically enjoy a peaceful life. Tong Zhao served Shan Song a full bowl of shrimp paste: "This is a treat for Chairman Shan. You've been working hard lately!"
"Thank you, darling." Shan Song accepted it with a smile: "Earning dividends for Zhao Zhao isn't hard work."
Oh, he forgot he also gets a share of the profits. Where did he get that money from? Perfect timing to decorate the venue for Shan Song's birthday.
Just then, Shan Song asked softly, "How are things going with Lu Hua?"
Lu Hua's job was special, so she didn't come back for the New Year. Therefore, this was the first time Tong Zhao had met Tai Yue's girlfriend. Like the other members of the Qi family, she gave him the feeling of being a warm omega.
Tong Zhao snapped out of her daze, glanced at the girl who was talking head-to-head with Tai Yue, and nodded: "Sister Hua is very gentle. Professor Luan helped introduce us to each other. Jiang Li is very outgoing and likable. Even Su Xuan has become more talkative than before. Everyone is getting along very well, so don't worry."
"That's good." Shan Song patted his head and smiled gently.
Qi Yan, feeling happy as his wife fed him, exclaimed, "Sister-in-law, can I have a portion of this broth? It tastes amazing!"
“We’d like one too,” Qi Taiyue said.
Jiang Li didn't have time to speak, so she elbowed Rong Mo in a hurry. Rong Mo had just been shoved a piece of beef tendon into his mouth by Jiang Leqi and hadn't even chewed it yet. Fortunately, Jiang Leqi knew her little daddy well enough to raise her hand in time: "My little daddy wants some too!"
My son is so big!
Each of them brought their families along. Qi Changzhou covered his face, pretended to be sorrowful, and tilted his head back to drink a glass of orange juice.
Dan Song caught a glimpse of him out of the corner of her eye, kicked him, and said with disdain, "What are you doing here?"
Is this how you treat good public servants?
Tong Zhao nudged Shan Song's arm: "I invited Brother Qi."
Did you hear that? Qi Changzhou straightened his back.
The two of them would bicker as soon as they met, but Tong Zhao stopped them in time: "Honey, let me show you my chest muscles!"
He's developed chest muscles in just a few days?
Dan Song's attention was indeed drawn: "Are you full?"
The tone of his voice sounded strange, and Tong Zhao nodded hesitantly.
"Let's go upstairs now that we're full."
