Wen Qi ignored it and cleaned up the restaurant with everyone to make sure there was nothing wrong with the room before leaving.

While cleaning up, Ying Siyun asked, "Did they just give up like that? They had to make such a scene before they could accept that their son was gone? I don't understand."

Wen Qi put down the plate in his hand and said, "There is nothing you can do if you don't accept it. You don't need to understand it. Everyone has different ideas and concerns. There is no 100% empathy in this world. Don't make it hard on yourself."

Ying Siyun agreed, "You are right."

After cleaning up the kitchen and dining room, several people left the rental house.

When Fan Xiaoling went downstairs to throw away the garbage, she yawned loudly. Wen Qi looked at the time and saw that it was almost one in the morning. "Let's go home and sleep."

Fan Xiaoling took out her phone and hailed a taxi. "Luckily I don't have classes tomorrow morning."

Ying Siyun was also hailing a taxi. "I'm going back to the office." She looked at Wen Qi who was standing still and asked, "Do you want to get in the same car with me? I'll take you home first."

Before Wen Qi could say anything, Fan Xiaoling laughed and said, "She doesn't need it. Someone will pick her up."

Wen Qi also laughed, "You know it again."

Fan Xiaoling snorted: "I'm used to it."

"Have you taken the taxi?" Wen Qi said, "Let's go to the gate of the community together."

Ying Siyun took two steps out and then realized, "Boss Feng is here to pick you up so late?"

Wen Qi smiled and said nothing.

Ying Siyun let out an envious sigh.

When they reached the gate of the community, Wen Qi said goodbye to the two and got on the SUV on the side of the road.

Fan Xiaoling took a look and sighed, "Boss Feng has changed his car again. When can I have my own car?"

Ying Siyun said: "First, you need to have your own driver's license."

Fan Xiaoling blinked and nodded deeply, "You are right."

The car arrived and the two left separately, heading for different destinations.

On the way, Wen Qi told Feng Ce what happened in the evening. Although it was only a few hours, the story was absolutely wonderful. When she talked about sending Xiao Jiu to find the guardian deity, Wen Qi suddenly paused, then turned back and looked at the back seat.

Sure enough, it was empty.

Feng Ce also reacted. He pursed his lips and said, "I thought you sent it away."

Wen Qi was silent. She actually forgot about it. "Xiao Jiu, seems to have fallen asleep in the living room."

Feng Ce asked: "Do you want to go back and pick it up?"

Wen Qi sighed, "We still have to answer it."

Feng Ce didn't object, turned around and drove back.

Wen Qi was speechless. The three of them came out and chatted from the door to the gate of the community. No one noticed that a cat was missing! Could Xiaojiu have some buff that reduced his presence? Fortunately, they didn't drive too far and soon returned to the gate of the community.

Wen Qi got out of the car and said, "Wait here, I'll be back soon." She got out of the car and ran into the community, as fast as a ghost.

Feng Ce wanted to remind her, but then he thought it was so late and everyone in the community should be asleep, no one would watch...

“A ghost——!”

Shrill and terrified screams came from the community.

Feng Ce thought calmly, this is the result of not sleeping in the middle of the night.

When Wen Qi returned to the rental house, Xiaojiu was still asleep, but its belly seemed to be a little smaller. Out of guilt, she did not wake Xiaojiu up, but picked it up directly, supporting its butt with one hand and its head with the other, just like holding a child.

On the way back, the neighborhood was even quieter, and the only night owl also went home after the fright just now.

Wen Qi curled her lips and said dissatisfiedly, "You're so jumpy." Just now she really thought that person had seen a ghost and wanted to help him out of kindness, but when she turned around, she found that the person thought she was a ghost.

After putting the sleeping Xiaojiu in the back seat and fastening her seat belt, Wen Qi got into the car and breathed a sigh of relief, "We can go home now."

Feng Ce glanced through the rearview mirror, started the car, and asked calmly, "Did you eat too much?"

Wen Qi nodded, "That white snake is the guardian deity with pretty good cultivation."

When we got home, it was already past two in the morning. Xiaojiu was placed on the sofa, and Wen Qi covered it with a small blanket.

Compared to when he had just finished eating, Xiaojiu's stomach had shrunk several sizes. It looked like it would be completely digested before morning, and no external intervention would be needed.

Wen Qi went upstairs to wash up and go to bed with peace of mind.

The next morning, Feng Ce got up and went to work as usual. When he passed by the sofa, he only saw a messy blanket and the stupid cat was gone. He didn't want to pay attention to it, but when he thought of Wen Qi still sleeping on it, he reminded him, "Don't go upstairs, and don't make too much noise, otherwise... you know the consequences."

Xiaojiu hid under the sofa and trembled. This man is really scary!

It was not until it heard the sound of the door closing that it dared to stick its head out and sniff. Feng Ce's scent was getting weaker and weaker... Xiao Jiu breathed a sigh of relief, crawled out from under the sofa, shook off his fur, and began to walk around the house as if patrolling his territory.

Feng Ce's scent was everywhere, making the cat feel uneasy. Fortunately, there was also Wen Qi's scent mixed in, so it didn't make the cat get angry.

After walking around, it felt a little bored. The snake it had eaten last night had not been completely digested, so it was not hungry at all. Wen Qi didn't know when he would wake up.

Xiaojiu jumped back onto the sofa and accidentally stepped on the remote control, causing the TV to turn on.

The sudden sound startled Xiaojiu. It jumped onto the back of the sofa and barked at the TV.

There was an evening show on TV. The host introduced the next program with a smile, and then the music started.

Xiaojiu tilted his head in confusion, and soon the singing began. After the song ended, he confirmed that the thing in front of him was not a threat to him at all, so he relaxed and lay on the back of the sofa to watch.

The more I watched, the more serious I became, and the more interesting I found it, especially the skits and crosstalk, which almost made me laugh to death.

It was a little after nine when Wen Qi woke up. She washed up, changed into a dress and short boots, and prepared to go downstairs. As soon as she opened the bedroom door, she was stunned by the laughter coming from outside.

Is there anyone else at home besides Feng Ce? Oh, and Xiao Jiu.

Wen Qi walked downstairs with a full heart of doubts. Is he crazy to laugh like this? Feng Ce was right. This cat must not be kept at home!

Xiaojiu turned around when he heard the noise and stood up from the sofa in shock, "Did I wake you up?"

Wen Qi shook her head, "But you're disturbing me now, what's so funny?" She glanced at the TV, and saw a bright red scene. The more she watched, the more familiar it looked... Is this the Spring Festival Gala? ! It's not even the latest one! She can recite the lines of the skit! Can this thing make you laugh like that? Wen Qi immediately looked at Xiao Jiu with pity. This poor child, how boring his life must have been when he was in the mountains.

Wen Qi shook his head, not wanting to say anything more to it, so he just let it watch and went to the door to pick up the lunch box and heat up the meal. "We'll go to the office after we finish eating."

Hearing about the office, Xiaojiu paid some attention to her. After all, it was where it would live permanently in the future. It thought for a moment and asked, "Does the office have this?"

Wen Qi nodded, "Once everything is installed, it will be there."

Xiaojiu wagged his tail in satisfaction.

Half an hour later, Wen Qi took Xiao Jiu out of the house reluctantly. She hadn't been to the office for a long time and didn't know what stage the decoration was at.

When they got to the place, Wen Qi was stunned as soon as he got out of the car. Was that Liu Ran and Ming Ren? It wouldn't be strange for either of them to be here, but what was strange was the posture of these two people. Why were they hugging each other?

Wen Qi lowered her sunglasses to make sure she was not mistaken. She took a deep breath and walked forward quickly. What was going on? It was inappropriate to hide such a big thing from them...

After seeing the person opposite them, Wen Qi rolled his eyes and his excitement disappeared immediately. Oh, it turned out to be Zhou Xuyang.

Zhou Xuyang's expression was complicated, with sadness, embarrassment, and a little bit of anger, especially when he looked at Mingren, as if he wanted to die with him.

Mingren has the appearance of a playboy, and he is surprisingly well matched with the beautiful Liu Ran when standing next to her.

It was this perfect match that stung Zhou Xuyang's eyes, but he still insisted on completing the purpose of coming here today. "I'm here to apologize." His voice was a little hoarse, "I'm sorry."

Liu Ran lowered his eyes and said nothing.

Mingren curled his lips and smiled sarcastically, "If you are really sorry, please don't show up in front of us in the future. Haven't you heard that saying? A qualified ex should be like dead, with no sense of existence at all."

Zhou Xuyang's expression became even uglier. He glared at Mingren, then looked at Liu Ran, "I hope you can find someone who is truly worthy of you in the future. Or whenever you get tired, look back. I will always be here waiting for you."

"No need." Liu Ran raised his head, his eyes calm and a smile on his lips, "A good horse never turns back, look forward."

Zhou Xuyang's eyes suddenly turned red, and his throat trembled several times before he managed to utter a sound: "Okay." He added: "But this man is really not suitable for you, you should choose carefully, don't make do with just anyone."

Liu Ran frowned, "I can judge whether it is suitable or not, don't worry about it."

Mingren snorted and raised his eyebrows proudly, and his arm around Liu Ran's waist tightened a little unconsciously.

Zhou Xuyang couldn't bear it anymore, turned around, covered his eyes, and said with a sob, "I wish you happiness." Then he walked away.

Mingren sneered at his back, "What kind of person is this? How dare you come to see you."

Liu Ran slapped his hand and said, "You can't hug me enough, right?"

Mingren pulled his hand away subconsciously, and then a trace of annoyance flashed in his eyes. He pulled his hand away too quickly. He turned around and was about to speak when he saw Wen Qi watching the show with sunglasses not far away. A trace of embarrassment flashed in his eyes, but he immediately laughed, "The big boss finally showed up. Do you still remember that this house is yours? How many times have you shown up when you let him supervise you for free every day?"

Liu Ran also quickly adjusted his expression and hummed in cooperation.

Wen Qi walked over, looked back and forth between the two, and said in disbelief: "You two...are now in a relationship where you can complain to each other? Is Mingren feeling sorry for you?"
