Chapter 40 He is a friend of mine



Ji Fuling followed Zuo Yiming's gaze and saw Ye Nanqing standing in the corridor outside the ward, leaning against the railing and looking down.

And where his gaze fell was her.

At this moment, Ji Tiantian, who was being held in Aunt Ding's arms, tilted her little head and said with a grin, "Uncle Yiming, are you talking about the handsome uncle? He's Mommy... mmm mmm mmm..."

Upon hearing her daughter's voice, Ji Fuling immediately looked away, took her from Aunt Ding's arms, and covered her mouth to prevent her from saying anything inappropriate.

This little girl always speaks without thinking; if we don't keep her in check, things will get out of control!

"He is a friend of mine."

Ji Fuling gave a vague reply, then changed the subject, "Let's drive, it's getting late, we should head back."

Zuo Yiming didn't ask any further questions and started the car to leave.

"Third Miss, this is Tian Tian's medical report."

Aunt Ding waved a document in her hand.

Ji Fuling nodded and said, "Aunt Ding, please keep this for now. I'll look at it when I get back."

She's busy covering the little girl's mouth right now, and has no free hand to catch it...

Ji Zihan and Ji Zimo exchanged a glance, secretly cursing each other in their hearts.

What kind of friend is that!

If they're not careful, they're all afraid that Mommy will be kidnapped by that man!

Upstairs in the emergency building, Ye Nanqing didn't turn and leave until the silver-gray Porsche disappeared from sight.

...

The next day, in the evening.

Ye Nanqing left the company, intending to meet a business partner. Just as he got into his car, his phone suddenly rang.

He glanced at the caller ID, then casually pressed answer. "Mom, why are you calling me at this hour? Is something wrong?"

"Nanqing, Mom is back in Yuncheng. I've missed you so much! Come to Huixiangxuan, I've made a reservation here, let's have a meal together."

At this moment, Madam Qi Peilan was sitting on the sofa in the hall of the Ye family's old house, making a phone call to Ye Nanqing as instructed by Old Master Ye.

She had gone on a trip abroad with some close friends. If her grandfather hadn't called her back to help, she would still be enjoying her trip.

"Okay, I'm coming over now."

Ye Nanqing agreed.

His elderly mother had returned from abroad and wanted to see him, so of course he couldn't refuse.

He put away his phone and said in a deep voice, "Go to Huixiangxuan and ask the partner to reschedule."

"Yes, Mr. Ye."

Chen Heng, sitting in the driver's seat, responded respectfully.

Compared to the old lady, the business partners could only stand aside and relax...

Hui Xiang Xuan is a traditional Chinese restaurant with an excellent reputation.

The dining area is separated by exquisite and elegant screens, forming semi-enclosed booths.

Because of the distance, Ye Nanqing arrived forty minutes later.

At this moment, Madam Ye was already seated in her pre-reserved spot, glancing towards the door every now and then, eagerly awaiting her arrival.

As soon as she saw Ye Nanqing walk in from the door, she immediately waved with a smile, "Nanqing, over here."

Ye Nanqing strode over and sat down in the seat next to him. "Mom, when did you get back?"

Although Madam Ye is old, she takes good care of herself and has lived a life of luxury for many years, so she looks energetic and not old at all.

She replied with a smile, "I arrived in Yuncheng yesterday and rested at home for a day to adjust to the time difference, so I'm only calling you today."

As she spoke, Madam Ye suddenly remembered her business and turned to look at the young girl playing the cello in front of the French windows, asking meaningfully, "Is your cello playing alright?"

Ye Nanqing glanced in that direction indifferently, his tone indifferent, "Barely."

"You call this barely acceptable? Your expectations are way too high!"

Madam Ye paused for a moment, then said, "This child has been learning the cello since she was little. She's beautiful and well-behaved. What do you think?"

Ye Nanqing lowered his brows slightly, offering no comment.

Upon hearing the old lady's words, he guessed the true purpose of today's meal.

This isn't a family gathering where an elderly mother misses her son; it's clearly a blind date.

As they were talking, the piece ended, and the young girl put her cello aside, got up, and walked towards Ye Nanqing's table.

She was wearing a light pink dress, and had a beautiful, youthful appearance.

On the surface, she does indeed appear as obedient as Madam Ye described.

As she approached, the girl smiled and said, "Aunt Ye, I didn't know what kind of music you liked, so I chose a more upbeat one. I hope you like it."

The words were addressed to Old Madam Ye, but her gaze was fixed on Ye Nanqing.

The man before me had sharp features and deep, sculpted face; even sitting down, he couldn't hide his powerful aura.

His expression was indifferent and aloof, with a coldness that kept people at arm's length, yet it was hard to look away.

Just looking at her was enough to make her heart race.

"Yu'er, the man beside me is our youngest son, Ye Nanqing, whom your Uncle Ye and I have mentioned to you."

Seeing that Qiao Yu'er was staring at her son, Old Madam Ye spoke up at the right time to introduce her, "Nan Qing, this is Qiao Yu'er, the daughter of the Qiao family."

Qiao Yu'er smiled shyly and extended her hand to Ye Nanqing, "Hello, Brother Nanqing, it's nice to meet you!"

In Yuncheng, countless women wanted to marry the Third Master of the Ye family, and she was no exception.

However, those people didn't have that qualification, but she did.

If she seizes the opportunity, this perfect man will belong to her!

"Hello."

Out of courtesy, Ye Nanqing greeted him, but made no move to shake hands.

If I remember correctly, the last marriage partner the old man planned to force upon him was from the Qiao family.

It seems that today's blind date was the old man's idea.

When the old man realized he couldn't persuade him, he called the old woman back to help.

Unfortunately, the old man miscalculated; no one can force him to do what he doesn't want to do!

Ye Nanqing didn't reach out, and Qiao Yu'er's hand remained awkwardly frozen in mid-air.

Seeing this, Madam Ye quickly smiled and spoke to ease the atmosphere, "Yu'er, don't stand, sit down first, we can eat and chat later."

Qiao Yuer then withdrew her hand and sat down with a somewhat unnatural expression.

Just then, Ye Nanqing's phone rang.

It's a phone number from the business.

He stood up and said calmly, "You guys chat, I'm going to take this call."

After saying that, Ye Nanqing took his phone and walked away.

Seeing that Qiao Yu'er looked depressed, Madam Ye took the opportunity to pull her aside and comfort her for a few words.

When Ye Nanqing returned after finishing his call, he heard the two of them already chatting.

"Aunt Ye, look over there. Those three children are so beautiful and cute. The two little boys look exactly alike. They look like triplets."

“It’s true. That girl looks about your age, and she’s already a mother of three. If Nan Qing had gotten married a few years earlier, my grandson would probably be this age by now.”

Upon hearing the words "triplets," Ye Nanqing couldn't help but think of the three children in Ji Fuling's family.

That soft, cute little girl who loves to stick to him, and those two little guys who are very wary of him, afraid that their mommy will be kidnapped by him.

Subconsciously, Ye Nanqing turned his head and glanced at it.

Unexpectedly, what Qiao Yuer and his mother were talking about was actually Ji Fuling and her three children.
