Chapter 255: Buying a Shop Next to Xi's (Part 2)
"Mr. Xi," Ruan Qi tugged at the corner of his clothes, "This is Grandpa Meng, the director of this hospital. Grandpa Meng, this is..."
"Master Xi." Meng Shan replied with a smile.
The man standing next to the little girl nodded slightly, "Dean Meng, nice to meet you again."
The little girl blinked and said, "Mr. Xi, Grandpa Meng, do you know each other?"
"I've met you a few times." Meng Shan stood up, glanced between the two of them, and asked with a smile, "Mr. Xi, did you come here specifically to see Ruan Qi?"
The little girl's heart skipped a beat.
Xi Jiu lowered his eyes to look at her and nodded calmly.
"yes."
Suddenly, Ruan Qi's heart seemed to be bumped by a deer, and her cute little ears slowly turned red.
The man looked at her pink little ear tips and curled his thin lips slightly.
Meng Shan sensed the unusual atmosphere between the two people, raised his eyebrows, and slapped his forehead.
"Look at my memory!" he said, "I suddenly remembered that I still have some work to do. Master Xi, please stay with Ruan Qi for a while. I'm leaving first."
After saying that, the old man in his sixties disappeared without a trace as if he was riding a hot wheel, before Ruan Qi could even say "goodbye".
“…”
The little girl raised her paw in the air and uttered a string of ellipsis speechlessly, "...Grandpa Meng is so brisk."
Xi Jiu looked at her puffed up cheeks, a smile flashing across his eyes.
He gently rubbed the top of her head, "Does the wound still hurt?"
"It doesn't hurt." Ruan Qi raised her little head, smiling sweetly and obediently, "I really don't feel any pain, Mr. Xi, don't worry."
Xi Jiu looked at the little girl's red and swollen ears, and his strong heart seemed to be twisted hard.
He sighed deeply and was about to speak when someone knocked on the door.
"Xiao Qi, are you there?" Shen Wenqian's voice came in.
Ruan Qi was about to open the door, but Xi Jiu walked over before her.
He opened the door a crack and Shen Wenqian quickly came in.
He thanked Xi Jiu, then turned to look at the little girl, examining her with his eyes.
"Is it really just a minor injury?"
Ruan Qi nodded and obediently raised her injured arm to show him.
Shen Wenqian breathed a sigh of relief.
"Your rescue story is trending again. There are a lot of reporters waiting outside the hospital right now. Your fans are all worried about your injuries. If you have time, send them a selfie to let them know you're safe."
The little girl nodded obediently.
Shen Wenqian: "What are you going to do later? If you have nothing to do, just go home. By the way, where is your brother? And your senior brother?"
"Senior brother is on a business trip. My brother and Xiaogouzi went to City A to handle the company's transfer. They won't be back until tomorrow."
Shen Wenqian frowned: "So you're home alone tonight?"
"No," the little girl shook her head. "There are also fennel, aniseed, and barley."
Thinking of the robot that could cook, wash clothes and even charge itself, Shen Wenqian nodded with relief.
"Shall I take you home now?" he asked.
Ruan Qi shook her head, picked up her phone, checked the time, and let out a small "ah".
"Brother Chen," she scratched her nose guiltily, "I still have something to do."
Shen Wenqian frowned: "Why do you have to do it today? You are injured and need to rest."
"I've already made an appointment with someone else." The little girl tugged at his shirt as if to act coquettish. "I made an appointment with a real estate agent yesterday, and I'm going to look at shops today."
Shen Wenqian also heard these days that Daxian Store was going to open a physical store.
He couldn't help but ask, "How about I take you there?"
"No need." Xi Jiu, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke.
He looked at the two of them and said, "There are a lot of reporters outside the hospital right now, all waiting for news about you. Mr. Shen's car has also been recognized by reporters. If he goes out now, I'm afraid he won't be able to move an inch."
Ruan Qi blinked and looked at Shen Wenqian.
Shen Wenqian rubbed his brows and asked, "Master Xi, do you have any ideas?"
Xi Jiu: "Assistant Mu has already driven the car to the back door of the main building. I will take Ruan Qi out the back door, and Assistant Mu will dress up as Ruan Qi and go with Mr. Shen to lead the reporters away."
Shen Wenqian thought seriously about Assistant Mu's height.
"..." The 1.79-meter-tall 'Ruan Xiaoqi' is a bit scary.
…
After a while, Assistant Mu slipped in from the back door. He was wearing Ruan Qi's coat, with his legs slightly bent, and rushed out with Shen Wenqian.
After the reporters chased Shen Wenqian, Xi Jiu pulled Ruan Qi and quickly got into the car through the back door.
The black Maybach quickly left the hospital.
The little girl sat in the passenger seat, looking through the rearview mirror at Shen Wenqian and Assistant Mu who were blocked by reporters. She patted her chest with her little hands, looking scared.
So scary!
Fortunately, she ran fast.
Xi Jiu, who was driving, turned his head to look at the lively expression on her face and chuckled with pleasure.
Ruan Qi tilted her head to look at him, her eyes curved and she laughed out loud.
"Thank you, Mr. Xi!"
Because she had just fought with the gangster, the little girl's bun was a little messy. A few strands of hair swayed with her movements, making her look cute and adorable.
Xi Jiu curled his lips.
"No need to thank me." He turned his head to glance at her, tenderness in the depths of his cold eyes.
Ruan Qi's heart began to beat irregularly again.
She nervously tugged at the corner of her clothes, and suddenly her face changed and she cried out in a hurry.
"Mr. Xi, my little eyelash is still in the hospital!"
Xi Jiu: "..."
Boss Xi, who was dazzled by the beauty, finally remembered... he seemed to have an electric car in the hospital.
…The man looked away and coughed awkwardly.
"Don't worry. I'll call Gong Qi and ask him to tow the car back."
An hour later, Gong Qi looked at the two electric bikes that were towed back with great fanfare.
“…”
Suddenly I feel like quitting my job.
——*——*——
Half an hour later, Ruan Qi, wearing a mask, and Xi Jiu walked into the empty shop.
"Ms. Ruan, this shop is located in the best location in the central business district of the imperial capital. It has two floors. If you only use the first floor, you can rent out the second floor."
The agent pointed outside the door and said, "Miss Ruan, look, across the street is the Wanlong Shopping Mall, a famous luxury goods center in the capital."
"Look behind the shop. Behind the shop is the Xi Group headquarters. You know Xi Group, right?"
"Xi?" The little girl opened her eyes wide in surprise. "Is Xi right behind us?"
"That's right!" The middle-level uncle smiled like Maitreya Buddha, "Those who can work in Xi's are all elites. Your store is right next to Xi's headquarters. No matter what you sell, you will definitely make a lot of money!"
The little girl's mouth twitched twice, and she glanced at Xi Jiu beside her secretly.
"Mr. Xi," she lowered her voice, "when you came here just now, why didn't you tell me that Xi was right next to you?"
