Chapter 55: Explosive Update 4
Ruan Qi wanted to say that she had no appetite and didn't want to eat.
But looking at Xi Jiu's eyes full of worry, she swallowed the words on the tip of her tongue and nodded slightly.
…
Xixi quickly brought up the new food.
This time the meal went smoothly. Ruan Qi ate half a bowl of vegetable porridge and drank a large bowl of egg drop soup.
After dinner, Xi Jiu helped her change into pajamas, wiped her face, and then carried her back to the bedroom.
"Baby, do you want to ask the director for a day off tomorrow?"
"No need, I've already taken the leave." Ruan Qi lay in his arms, "I have an appointment with Yu Jinxiu to treat someone's eyes tomorrow morning."
Xi Jiujun frowned slightly, "Can't it be the day after tomorrow? Baby, you need to rest."
"It's okay, Jiujiu." Ruan Qi nudged herself in his arms. "I'll be back in the morning. I'll sleep in the hotel this afternoon. The patient's condition is quite urgent, so I have to deal with it as soon as possible."
Xi Jiu just thought that the little girl was responsible and wanted to cure the patient as soon as possible, so he didn't think much about it.
"Then I'll go with the baby tomorrow?"
Ruan Qi's eyes flickered, and she shook her head, "No need. You ended the meeting early for me today, and I can't delay work tomorrow. I'm really fine, Jiujiu, don't worry so much."
My girlfriend is too independent, so the boss Xi has no place to use his skills.
He sighed helplessly, lowered his head and kissed the little girl on the forehead.
"Then bring Xixi and the others with you tomorrow. If you feel unwell, rest immediately and don't try to be stubborn. If you need anything, call me. My phone is always on."
Ruan Qi smiled as she listened to her boyfriend transform into a housekeeper and kept nagging her about the things to pay attention to when traveling.
She nodded with a smile and agreed, and her heart, which had been cold because of the nightmare, finally warmed up completely.
The night gradually deepened.
The exhausted little girl slowly fell asleep amid the man's low and sweet love words.
Listening to the long breathing in his ears, Xi Jiu stopped talking. He lowered his head and looked at her face intently and gluedly.
The little girl didn't look very good because she had just had a nightmare and vomited again.
Coupled with the recent heavy workload of filming, she has become so thin that her chin is pointed. The whole person looks thin and haggard, which makes people feel very distressed.
Xi Jiu looked at her, deep in his dark eyes hidden surging affection and worry.
He stared at her motionlessly for a long time, and the crescent moon outside the window slowly climbed above his head.
The room was very quiet, with only a small desk lamp emitting a dim and warm light.
Perhaps because she had someone she could rely on by her side, Ruan Qi slowly fell into a deep sleep and even began to snore softly.
Xi Jiu carefully covered her with the quilt, then stood up and walked out of the bedroom silently.
Outside the bedroom, Xixi was already waiting in the living room.
Xi Jiu's face darkened completely.
He glanced at Xixi and said coldly, "Go out and talk."
Two people walked out of the hotel room one after the other.
Xi Jiu closed the door gently, and the coldness around him could no longer be controlled. He was like a sword tempered with ice, sharp and cold.
"Where did Xiaoqi go during the day?" he asked coldly.
Xixi shivered from the coldness surrounding the man.
He tried hard to control his trembling legs, shook his head, and said, "Madam didn't go anywhere special. She only went to the Daxian store to see Yu Jinxiu."
"Yu Jin Xiu?" Xi Jiu repeated the name, "The eldest son of the Yu family?"
Xixi: "Yes. Xiu Yujin came here to treat an illness. After the treatment, he chatted with the lady for a while, and then we parted ways."
"What did you talk about?"
"I'm not sure about that." Xixi shook her head. "Mo Lan accompanied the Madam to the Daxian store today, and He Ma and I stayed at the hotel to handle other work. But Mo Lan said that the Madam and Yu Jinxiu were probably talking about work and the condition of the patient who needed eye treatment. They didn't talk about anything else."
No other talk.
Xi Jiu frowned and continued to ask, "What was Xiao Qi's expression like after he and Yu Jin Xiu separated?"
"Well..." Xixi hesitated for a moment, "There shouldn't be anything unusual. Mo Lan said that the lady fell asleep after getting in the car, and there doesn't seem to be anything wrong."
I fell asleep right after getting in the car...
Xi Jiu narrowed his eyes thoughtfully, with a cold light flashing in his eyes.
After a moment, he spoke, "Tomorrow morning, Xiao Qi and Yu Jin Xiu will go treat someone. You must follow them the entire time and not miss a single step. Remember everything they talk about and say to each other. Do you understand?"
Xixi's heart trembled, and he straightened his back and replied "yes".
Xi Jiu's expression brightened slightly. He pulled out his room card and unlocked the door. He paused as he walked in and said, "Call Gong Qi and have him check all of Yu Jin Xiu's connections, including any cats and dogs he's owned."
…
Thanks to Xi Jiu's company, Ruan Qi didn't have a single nightmare that night and slept soundly.
The next morning, the girl ate a large bowl of lean meat porridge under the care of her boyfriend, and then left the hotel with her medicine box.
Yu Jinxiu's car was already waiting outside the hotel.
Ruan Qi opened the passenger door and got in. "Good morning, Mr. Yu."
"Good morning, Teacher Ruan." Yu Jinxiu watched her fasten her seatbelt before starting the car. "Teacher Ruan, please stop calling me Mr. Yu and call me Ah Xiu. That's what all my friends call me."
Ruan Qi nodded: "Okay, Ah Xiu."
A smile appeared in Yu Jinxiu's slightly raised phoenix eyes.
He turned the steering wheel and the car turned onto the wide road.
"Teacher Ruan, have you had breakfast?"
"I ate it." Ruan Qi had just finished speaking when a car horn sounded outside the car window.
She turned her head.
A black Maybach quickly drove past the right side of Yu Jinxiu's SUV, and the person in the car honked the horn when passing the passenger seat.
Ruan Qi quickly rolled down the car window.
At the same time, the driver's window of the Maybach quickly rolled down, and Xi Jiu's handsome and cool profile appeared from the window.
"Jiujiu!" the little girl shouted happily.
When Yu Jinxiu, who was driving, heard this name, he was so scared that his hands shook and he almost drove the car onto the curb.
Fuck!
Who is Jiujiu?
Xi Jiu? Master Xi?!
Why is Mr. Xi here?!
Isn’t this the hotel where Mr. Ruan’s crew is staying?
Holy shit! He seems to know something incredible!
The sudden amount of information was so overwhelming that Yu Jinxiu's eyes widened in shock.
Although he had known about the relationship between Xi Jiu and Ruan Qi for a long time, knowing is one thing, and seeing it with one's own eyes is another.
After all, that was the powerful Mr. Xi! When he was in college, he even regarded him as his idol!
Yu Jinxiu was a little nervous when he suddenly saw his former idol. He was so stiff that he almost broke the steering wheel off.
Xi Jiu had no idea he'd run into a little fanboy. He couldn't stop on the road, so he rolled down the window to glance at Ruan Qi. The Maybach quickly passed by Yu Jinxiu's SUV.
