Chapter 131: Find Master Shen to settle the score
"Why are you in Ji Jinhe's car?" Gu Xuanzhou looked at Qi Xiuxu in the car in disbelief.
"Why can't I be in my girlfriend's car?" Qi Xiuxu asked coldly.
Ji Jinhe, who was sitting on the other side, looked at Gu Xuanzhou with interest.
"You just said," Qi Xiuxu stared at Gu Xuanzhou with narrow eyes, "that fake rich girl can do it?"
"Mr. Qi, Jinxi is not..."
"I'm sorry to tell you," Qi Xiuxu's aura grew colder, "if it were someone else, there wouldn't be this opportunity."
Gu Xuanzhou's breathing hitched, and he stumbled back, "W-what do you mean?"
Cheng Mi, who was sitting in the front, couldn't bear to listen any longer. He turned around and stared at Gu Xuanzhou, "What he meant was, except for Miss Ji, no one else can enter the Qi family."
Gu Xuanzhou didn't know that Ji Jinhe was the second daughter of the Qi family, and was completely confused when he heard this.
But he understood that Mr. Qi really liked Ji Jinhe.
After Cheng Mi finished speaking, he glanced at Qi Xiuxu's expression and waved to the security guard who was standing hesitantly behind the car.
After seeing this gesture, the security guard hurried forward and pulled Gu Xuanzhou away.
The Rolls-Royce started slowly and drove away.
It was not until he could no longer see the exhaust of the car that Gu Xuanzhou realized that Ji Jinhe was refusing to help Xu Jinxi?
"This isn't a place you can just come to casually," the security guard said, unaware of Gu Xuanzhou's identity. He grabbed Gu Xuanzhou's hand and warned him, "If you dare to stop Mr. Qi and Ms. Ji's car again, don't blame me for sending you to jail!"
Gu Xuanzhou couldn't bear to hear the words "send in" now, so he broke free from the security guard's hand and walked towards his car.
Inside the car, Ji Jinhe looked at Qi Xiuxu with interest.
"Why did you want to take me back to the Qi family?"
Cheng Mi and Cheng Feng, who were sitting in the front, pretended to be dead, and the partition slowly rose.
"I don't know." Qi Xiuxu turned to look at Ji Jinhe, "I think you shouldn't be in that place."
When Qi Xiuxu saw Ji Jinhe, she was sitting on a small chair as if isolated from the world, and he couldn't help but want to get closer to her.
There is a kind of attraction in Ji Jinhe that makes Qi Xiuxu want to get close to her involuntarily and give her all the best things in the world.
Ji Jinhe turned back thoughtfully.
…
Since the Spring Festival was approaching, Ji Jinhe finally did not arrange any work for Chu Jin and Liu Yilan, and just treated it as giving them an early holiday.
As the Spring Festival approached, Mrs. Su personally visited Qi Xiuxu and Ji Jinhe.
She took Ji Jinhe's hand and said softly, "Jinhe, are you still coming to the Su family to celebrate the New Year this year?"
There was a hint of uneasiness in her eyes, and she looked in Qi Xiuxu's direction expectantly.
There are very few people in the Qi family, and almost every generation is a single-line inheritance. As early as when Ji Jinhe went to the Qi family, Qi Xiuxu's grandparents had passed away.
Later, Qi's parents also died in a car accident, and now only Qi Xiuxu and Ji Jinhe are left in the Qi family.
Ever since Qi's parents passed away, Mrs. Su has invited Qi Xiuxu and his wife to the Su family to celebrate the New Year every year, and this year is no exception.
"I'm looking at Jinhe." Qi Xiuxu met Mrs. Su's gaze, then turned and looked at Ji Jinhe.
Ji Jinhe glanced back at Qi Xiuxu, smiled, and patted Madam Su's hand, "Since Auntie has invited us, we will definitely go."
Madam Su's face lit up with smiles. She patted Ji Jinhe's head lovingly and said, "Then Auntie will wait for you at home."
The Su family has always had Ji Jinhe's room, which was prepared for Ji Jinhe after the Qi family's parents passed away.
As for Qi Xiuxu, his requirements have always been low.
Mrs. Su finally returned to the Su family happily. After the two men saw Mrs. Su off, Ji Jinhe turned to look at Qi Xiuxu.
Her hand hooked around his tie and she raised an eyebrow, "You all listen to me?"
"Yeah." Qi Xiuxu raised his hand and held her wrist, whispering in response. After a pause, he continued, "Sometimes it's not possible."
Ji Jinhe was silent for two seconds, let go of her hand, and turned back to the villa.
Time flies, and it is New Year's Eve, the day before the Spring Festival.
Ji Jinhe was woken up by the sound of firecrackers early in the morning. She turned over and kicked the person next to her, her voice hoarse, "Noisy."
Qi Xiuxu touched her head soothingly, tucked in the quilt, and then stood up and walked towards the balcony.
Pulling open the curtains on the side where the light couldn't reach the bed, Qi Xiuxu walked to the balcony and looked down.
In the front yard of the villa, four figures were setting off fireworks below.
Jiang Youze held a Gatling gun in his hand, looked up at the direction of the third floor, and shouted, "Brother Xu, come down and set off the fireworks!"
Only after he called out to them did the other three notice Qi Xiuxu standing on the balcony.
Su You narrowed her eyes as she looked at where Qi Xiuxu was standing. If she was not mistaken, that was Xiao He Miao's room.
She curled her lips and said that she could go back and tell Mrs. Su that she only needed to prepare a room for the two of them.
Chen Xi threw the burnt fairy wand in his hand into the trash can and raised an eyebrow, "Why is Director Qi still sleeping in at this time?"
Cheng Feng and his companions in the courtyard watched helplessly as they set off fireworks. They did not dare to stop them, nor could they stop them.
These people are all ancestors who grew up with Qi Xiuxu and Ji Jinhe, and both of them are very tolerant of them.
Su Jing, who was leaning against the wall while making a phone call, looked up at Qi Xiuxu, covered his phone with his hands and began to explain, "My mom asked you to come over early to help put up the couplets together!"
Qi Xiuxu, wearing his nightgown, looked lazily at the noisy group with his eyes lowered. He said slowly in a low voice, "I understand."
Seeing that the person had woken up, Jiang Youze fired the last shot, then bent down and put the fireworks back into the box.
He patted the top of the cardboard box, pointed at Shen Xi and shouted to Qi Xiuxu with a smile in his eyes, "This was Master Shen's idea, ha, if you want to settle the score, find him."
Shen Xi was not surprised to be betrayed and raised his hands, "They are accomplices."
Seeing that they started to betray each other, Su You quickly picked up his things and ran towards the Su family.
Seeing that Su You had run away, the few people realized that their goal had been achieved, and they waved goodbye to Qi Xiuxu.
When Qi Xiuxu returned to the room, Ji Jinhe had already sat up. She smoothed her messy hair and asked, "Who is it?"
She heard voices coming from the balcony.
Qi Xiuxu walked over and helped her straighten her hair, "Su Jing and the others."
"Oh." Ji Jinhe was not surprised at all. The only ones who dared to come here early in the morning and set off fireworks in the front yard of the Qi family, ignoring Cheng Mi and the others, were Su Jing and his companions.
"Aunt asked us to go over and put up the couplets." Qi Xiuxu bent down and put his arms around Ji Jinhe, resting his chin on her shoulder.
"Ah." Ji Jinhe blinked and tilted his head to ask, "What time is it?"
She knew that the Su family always posted couplets in the morning, but it didn't seem to be this early.
"Nine o'clock." Qi Xiuxu looked at the time when he got up.
"Huh?" Ji Jinhe pushed him away, her eyes dim, "Where's my alarm clock?"
She remembered setting the alarm for eight o'clock last night, thinking of getting up early and going to Su's house.
"It's closed." Qi Xiuxu lowered his eyes and said nonchalantly.
It was already half past nine when Qi Xiuxu and Ji Jinhe arrived at the Su family's house. Su Chi, the Su family's housekeeper, opened the door for them.
At this time, the Su family had already made a lot of arrangements, with red lanterns hanging in the yard, which looked very festive.
"Axu, Jinhe!" The Su family walked to the door together to greet the two of them, and Mrs. Su called them affectionately.
This is not the first time that Ji Jinhe has spent the New Year at the Su family. Since the death of Qi's parents, she has spent almost every year at the Su family.
Ji Jinhe smiled and politely called people. The two of them were familiar with the Su family, so there was no formality.
After a few people greeted each other, Su Yuanliang, the current head of the Su family, happily took Qi Xiuxu to see the couplets he wrote, and Mrs. Su took Ji Jinhe to the greenhouse.
"Jinhe," Mrs. Su called Ji Jinhe's name cautiously after showing her the several kinds of flowers she planted.
"Hmm?" Ji Jinhe tilted her head to look at her.
"For so many years, I have always treated you as my own daughter." Madam Su held Ji Jinhe's hand. "Ever since Yanqiu passed away, I have always wanted to take care of you two siblings for her..."
Yanqiu is Mrs. Qi's maiden name.
Ji Jinhe seemed to realize what she was about to say, and his lowered eyes trembled.
"I know Ah Xu has always been very good to you. I've watched him grow up, and I'm relieved that you two are together." Madam Su frowned slightly and said earnestly, "But love and family affection are different. I'm afraid that you..."
"No, aunt." Ji Jinhe spoke softly, her eyes full of seriousness, "We didn't mistake family affection for love. We always knew what we wanted."
Mrs. Su paused. She had watched Qi Xiuxu and Ji Jinhe grow up together and understood their temperaments. They had been very independent-minded since childhood and were not the kind of people who could not recognize their own feelings.
She was thinking too much. Madam Su sighed and touched Ji Jinhe's cheek. "I hope you can all live happily."
"Well," Ji Jinhe tilted his head and rubbed Madam Su's palm, "We all know how to do it."
On the other hand, Qi Xiuxu was also mentioned about this matter by Su Yuanliang, but Su Yuanliang did not have the same concerns as Mrs. Su.
He was holding a brush in one hand and looking at Qi Xiuxu with a stern face. Outsiders were afraid of Qi Xiuxu, but he was not.
He also contributed to Qi Xiuxu's ability to quickly familiarize himself with the company.
"Ah Xu." Su Yuanliang lowered his eyes and wiped his brush with a handkerchief. He spoke in a deep voice, "You know the rules of the Qi family better than your uncle. Once you've chosen someone, you can't change your mind. You will only have one daughter-in-law in this life. Your father and grandfather both did this. Although they are gone, I am still here."
Su Yuanliang and Qi's father are old friends, and their brotherly relationship is like that between Qi Xiuxu and Su Jing.
"Don't worry, that day will never come." Qi Xiuxu lowered his eyes and looked at the couplet on the table.
Su Yuanliang handed the handkerchief to Qi Xiuxu and said, "I have watched you two grow up. My only wish in this life is to see all the children in your family thrive."
With the Spring Festival approaching, Su Yuanliang didn't want to talk about anything too serious. He closed the brocade box containing the brushes and patted Qi Xiuxu on the shoulder. "Let's go and see what they are doing."
After Jiang Youze and Shen Xi came over to set off the fireworks, they went back to their own homes to help. When Su Yuanliang brought Qi Xiuxu downstairs, they saw that it was very lively downstairs.
Madam Su came over with the prepared paste and said, "Quick, quick, quick! Bring me the couplets!"
Qi Xiuxu handed the couplet to Mrs. Su.
Madam Su handed it to Su Jing again and said, "It's your turn to post it this year. Don't be lazy, go!"
Su Jing reluctantly took the couplet and walked out the door. Butler Su brought a ladder for him and said, "Master, be careful."
Su Jing nodded and climbed up the ladder.
Su You and Ji Jinhe were directing from below, while Qi Xiuxu held up the paste and asked Su Jing to brush it on.
Not far away, Mrs. Su and Su Yuanliang watched the four people busying around with smiles in their eyes.
"Have you talked to Ah Xu?" Mrs. Su turned her head to look at Su Yuanliang.
"Yeah." Su Yuanliang put his arm around Mrs. Su's shoulders.
"It's good like this now." Mrs. Su looked in the direction of the four people not far away, tears welling up in her eyes.
It was not until she received the news that Qi Xiuxu and Ji Jinhe were together that Mrs. Su realized that in all these years she had never thought about what kind of person Qi Xiuxu would marry in the future, or who Ji Jinhe would marry in the future.
It was as if it was destined from the beginning that the two of them would never be separated.
After the couplets were posted, Su Jing came down and took a photo of them with satisfaction.
Su You glanced at her sideways and whispered to Ji Jinhe, "He's sharing it with Sister Wen Li again."
Ji Jinhe poked Su You's head with a smile, "Why didn't you think of sharing it with Ji Linchuan?"
"Ah!" Su You uttered in a trance, then secretly glanced in the direction of Madam Su, with a worried look on his face, "My mother is here, I don't dare!"
Logically speaking, Su You has always been a person with a strong desire to share, and taking photos and sharing them with friends is a very normal thing.
But Su You really felt a little guilty, afraid that Mrs. Su would ask who he shared it with.
Su You hasn't figured out how to tell Mrs. Su about her and Ji Linchuan, mainly because Hong Kong is too far away.
If Madam Su found out that she was in love, she would definitely ask her which young man he was dating, and then she would not be able to hide her affair with Ji Linchuan.
Ji Jinhe gave her a helpless look.
After lunch, Mrs. Su started to organize the making of dumplings. Originally, these were done by the servants, but she felt that her own dumplings had a better festive feel.
During this time, Mrs. Su drove Ji Jinhe and Su You out and let them play by themselves, leaving only Qi Xiuxu and Su Jing.
Ji Jinhe leaned against the door frame and watched the two big CEOs making dumplings, and couldn't help laughing.
Su You was standing next to them with his cell phone and took a few photos of the two of them, capturing this rare scene. After taking the photos, he pulled Ji Jinhe away, leaving the two of them helpless.
Su You finally pulled Ji Jinhe to stop in the garden. After the two of them admired the photos for a while, Su You received a video call from Ji Linchuan.
She covered her phone and looked around vigilantly. Ji Jinhe couldn't bear it anymore and turned Su You's head back manually.
"Okay, I'll watch it for you. It's like you've done something shameful."
Su You blinked and muttered, "It's just that Ji Linchuan is too far away."
If he was from the capital or someone of any other status, Su You would not be so careful.
But he is the heir of the Ji family in Hong Kong, and it is impossible for him to stay in the capital with Su You for the rest of his life.
Su You turned her back to video chat with Ji Linchuan, while Ji Jinhe lazily supported her chin and looked around for her.
The phone vibrated and Ji Jinhe took out his phone while yawning.
It was a message from Wei Yun.
It’s almost the New Year, why is Wei Yun still so idle?
Ji Jinhe lowered his eyes and opened his phone.
[Wei Yun]: Miss Ji, Xu Zhenqu's trial will be held after the New Year. Do you want to go?
