Chapter 168 I Can’t Bear It
The drunken Ruan Qi finally calmed down after turning into Xi Jiu's "shawl".
Xu Xiangyang asked Nie Heng and Shen Wenqian to go to bed, and he and Damai Baby stayed in the living room to keep watch.
In the bedroom, Xi Jiu and Ruan Munan sat motionless like two gods.
Especially Xi Jiu, who was wearing a shawl weighing more than 80 kilograms, but his back was straight.
He clenched his fists on his knees, his eyes slightly lowered, looking like an old monk in meditation.
If Ruan Munan could read minds, he would definitely hear that Xi Jiu was playing the song "Heart Purification Mantra" on repeat in his heart at this moment.
After all, he is a young man full of vigor and vitality.
The little girl he had been studying for a long time was sitting in his arms again. The little girl was only wearing a small suspender and shorts.
Who can bear this?
Xi Jiu lowered his eyes, and the player in his heart began to play "Purifying Heart Mantra" on loop for the 28th time.
"How long have Mr. Xi and my sister known each other?" Ruan Munan suddenly asked.
Xi Jiu pressed the pause button on the player in his mind.
He raised his eyes and his cold gaze fell on Ruan Munan.
"soon."
Ruan Munan: "How long is 'soon'? A week? Or a month?"
"Less than a month." Xi Jiu replied.
Ruan Munan narrowed his eyes.
He stared at Xi Jiu for two seconds and asked, "I heard that Mr. Xi has a large family?"
Xi Jiu: "Not much. Grandpa, my parents, and my aunt. A warm family, friendly brothers and sisters, no quarrels."
Ruan Munan looked down at the Xi family information that his subordinates had just sent to his mailbox.
The Xi family has seven children.
Uncle San had both legs broken by Xi Jiu himself.
Second uncle's company was completely taken over by Xi Jiu.
Sixth Uncle was sent to prison by Xi Jiu himself.
Even his youngest cousin was sent to Country M by him and was never allowed to return home for the rest of her life.
Family warmth?
Brothers are friendly and respectful to each other?
Ruan Munan chuckled in his heart, and a hint of teasing appeared in his gentle black eyes.
"Mr. Xi's family is really harmonious."
Xi Jiu accepted his praise without blushing or beating his heart.
…
The clock hand gradually moved towards 12, and it was almost early morning.
The little girl lying on Xi Jiu's shoulder finally fell into a deep sleep.
Her little face was flushed, her pink little mouth was slightly open, and she was snoring softly.
The expressions of the two men in the room softened.
Ruan Munan glanced at Xi Jiu and reached out to hug Ruan Qi.
The moment Ruan Munan took the little girl away from his arms, Xi Jiu felt inexplicably empty in his heart.
Ruan Munan gently placed Ruan Qi on the bed and gently covered her with a blanket.
The little girl muttered softly, turned over, and fell into a deep sleep hugging the pillow beside her.
Ruan Munan helped her tidy up her loose hair. When she stood up, she saw Xi Jiu standing by the bed, staring at the person on the bed without blinking.
His eyes flashed and he said, "Xiao Qi is asleep, Mr. Xi, please go out."
Xi Jiu uttered a deep "hmm".
He looked at Ruan Qi again, then followed Ruan Munan out of the bedroom.
…
Ruan Qi was drunk tonight, and Xi Jiu had been a big help. Ruan Munan was not someone who didn't know etiquette. It was already midnight, and even if he didn't want to, he couldn't chase Xi Jiu away.
Ruan Qi's house only had two guest rooms, Shen Wenqian and Nie Heng each occupied one.
Xi Jiu wasn't the type of person who could sleep with others, so in the end he just slept in the living room with Ruan Munan and Xu Xiangyang.
The next morning, Ruan Qi was awakened by the barking of a dog.
She opened her heavy eyelids, crawled out of the quilt in a daze, sat on the bed and asked three soul-searching questions.
What happened last night?
How did she get home?
Why is the dog barking at home?
