Jiang Qi felt like a peeping Tom. Ever since Xu Lingyi moved out of the Jiang family, his eyes were always focused on his neighbor.
I feel uneasy every night.
Given Ji Qi and Jiang Qi's current condition, they are unable to go to work in the company, so they have been staying at home for some time.
"Grandpa? Why are you here?"
The moment he saw Mr. Jiang, Jiang Qi was not even nervous, but happy.
Because he knew that the old man had come, which meant that Xu Lingyi would come to act with him.
He could see her, too.
It was nearly ten days, and although they lived very close to each other, he had not been able to contact Xu Lingyi even once.
Ji Qi is always by her side.
"You didn't go to work, your grandma was hesitant, so I had to get up and come over to take a look..."
After saying this, the old man started coughing non-stop, and his face turned from pale to red.
Jiang Qi quickly stepped forward to support him, and the doctors also rushed forward.
After a while, the old man stopped coughing and his complexion looked much more normal.
The old man saw Jiang Qi's face as soon as he entered the door.
"You got beaten up? No wonder you're working from home. You really can't face anyone like this."
The old man's doubts were dispelled.
He originally thought that something bigger was going on, otherwise his wife wouldn't have been in such a bad mood these days.
"Your grandma has been sighing all day long these days. Jiang Qi, you're already so old, don't make the elders worry about you anymore."
"Grandpa, I understand."
Ever since the old man's condition worsened again, Jiang Qi has become an obedient grandson in front of him.
"Grandpa, I'm fine here. I'll go to the company as soon as the injury on your face isn't too serious. You should go back to the sanatorium and rest. I'll come see you in a few days."
The old man's condition made Jiang Qi give up the idea of asking Xu Lingyi to come over. He didn't dare to take the risk.
I was also afraid that grandpa would be able to see something from the way they get along.
"It doesn't matter whether you watch it or not. You are busy and have your own things to do."
The old man was mentally prepared to face death. He sounded carefree, but in fact he also had his own fears and torment in his heart.
"Where is Xiaoyi?" the old man asked again.
Jiang Qi hesitated for a moment, but still wanted to let Xu Lingyi know that the old man was here.
Otherwise, if grandpa goes out later and happens to see him...
"She's out. I'll send her a message."
Jiang Qi picked up his phone and opened Xu Lingyi's WeChat.
The old man had no doubts. "Xiaoyi is a good child. Her parents have been very kind to our family. Grandpa has watched her grow up over the years. Whether it's her studies, behavior... or other aspects, there's nothing to say. You must treat her well, whether I'm here or after I'm gone."
Jiang Qi felt a pang of bitterness in his heart and his throat tightened. "Okay."
The old man didn't know yet that he and Xu Lingyi had already divorced. Hearing these words now, Jiang Qi felt mixed emotions.
"Why are you so obedient today?" the old man asked with a smile.
Jiang Qi quickly suppressed his emotions and said, "I was ignorant before, don't worry."
————
"Grandpa is coming, I'm going over there."
Ji Qi held her back and said, "Wait a moment, I'll take you out from the back door. You can go around a little bit and go in over there."
If you go out directly from the next door, you might be seen.
"good."
"Grandpa." Xu Lingyi hadn't seen the old man for a while. When she saw him again today, she suddenly discovered that his mental state was far worse than before.
"You're back." The old man was obviously happy to see Xu Lingyi, so he held their hands and put them together.
"Just now I was telling Jiang Qi to cherish you. Grandpa probably won't be able to see your children anymore. If you have children in the future, remember to bring them to see me."
"Grandpa, you will live a long life."
Mr. Jiang and his generation of elders have a fixed mindset and may think that the most important thing for a girl is to have a good marriage.
The original owner happened to like Jiang Qi, so the old man followed her wishes and brought her and Jiang Qi together.
After all, the old man was old and sick, and he became exhausted after staying for less than an hour.
Jiang Qi and Xu Lingyi held hands and saw the old man off at the door.
As soon as the car disappeared from sight, Xu Lingyi immediately let go of Jiang Qi's hand.
The moment his hand was shaken away, Jiang Qi felt an infinite sense of loss in his heart.
They rarely held hands, and in the more than a year between their marriage and divorce, they probably didn't even hold hands five times.
Even if they hold hands, it's just for show in front of outsiders.
They won't even have the chance to do that again.
Ji Qi came out quickly, or rather, he had been keeping an eye on what was happening next door.
Come and take Xu Lingyi away as soon as possible.
Just as Jiang Qi was wary of and disgusted with Ji Qi, Ji Qi was also wary of Jiang Qi.
"Yiyi, let's go back."
Ji Qi naturally stretched out his hand, and Xu Lingyi also placed her hand in his palm.
Jiang Qi could only watch.
"Ji Qi!" Jiang Qi was unwilling to accept it.
Ji Qi ignored her and just took Xu Lingyi back to the villa, leaving Jiang Qi standing there alone.
"Ji Qi, you make me sick."
Jiang Qi really couldn't help it. He knew that if he verbally attacked Ji Qi now, Xu Lingyi would also hate him.
But he just couldn't help it.
This sentence made Ji Qi stop and turn around: "Jiang Qi, this is the last time, you have to accept the reality."
After all, they have been brothers for many years. Although Ji Qi had already given up Xu Lingyi in his heart the moment he chose her.
He and Jiang Qi were destined to slowly become enemies.
Jiang Qi sneered, "Ji Qi, I won't let you go."
This sentence was like a formal declaration of war.
Xu Lingyi was a little worried. "Will Jiang Qi...target the Ji family in the future? You..."
Ji Qi shook his head: "Before his grandfather passed away, Jiang Qi could not and did not dare to take any action."
"When Mr. Jiang passes away, it won't be easy for Jiang Qi to take over the Jiang family's huge business. Even if he does, it will take him several years to fully control the decision-making power."
Ji Qi knew that she was worried that both sides would suffer losses.
"That's good."
After returning home, Mr. Jiang still felt something was wrong. When he saw the two children this time, they seemed even more unfamiliar than last time.
"How did you feel when you met Jiang Qi and Xiao Yi last time? Why do I feel like something is wrong?"
The old lady's face was stiff. She was a little angry, but she held it back.
"No."
But her attitude made Mr. Jiang even more suspicious.
He finally called his assistant who he had worked with for many years and said, "Go check on Jiang Qi and Xiao Yi."
If something happens to the two people's children, he won't be able to rest in peace even if he leaves.
