Chapter 16: A Man Who Attracts Both Men and Women
Qi Xiuxu frowned when he heard this question, and instead of answering, he asked, "Who do you like?"
Ji Jinhe stared at Qi Xiuxu and shook her head, then tried again, "So, do you plan to have a relationship?"
Qi Xiuxu thought she had read some random stuff, so he picked up the half-broken blanket that had fallen to the ground and said, "I don't plan to talk about it anytime soon."
"What about after a long time?"
Qi Xiuxu turned his head to look at Ji Jinhe. Her eyes were staring at him, which was very captivating.
The villa was quiet, and the afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on the tiles on the floor, casting an orange light inside the room.
Ji Jinhe suddenly felt a darkness in front of her eyes. She covered her eyes with a hand, and Qi Xiuxu's low voice rang out: "I won't do that again."
Ji Jinhe reached out and held Qi Xiuxu's wrist. There was a bone protruding on his wrist, and the blue veins were slightly prominent under his fair skin. It was a pair of hands that were very suitable for playing the piano.
Qi Xiuxu used to play the piano before his parents passed away.
Ji Jinhe really likes listening to him playing the piano. She likes to spend lazy afternoons listening to Qi Xiuxu playing the piano while she leans on the couch and reads a book, occasionally clicking a favorite song.
In the blink of an eye, such time seems to have passed a long time ago.
"Why?" Ji Jinhe looked up at Qi Xiuxu.
Qi Xiuxu rubbed her head. Her hand was still holding Qi Xiuxu's wrist. When Qi Xiuxu raised his hand, it was as if Ji Jinhe was holding his hand and rubbing his head.
With a smile spreading across his face, Qi Xiuxu said, "I will support you for the rest of your life."
…
Ji Jinhe has been staying at the Qi family these days. No one from the Xu family contacted her after that day, perhaps because they thought she was angry.
Afraid that Ji Jinhe would be bored, Qi Xiuxu would bring Ji Jinhe with him to the company these days, wearing a mask so that outsiders could not see her face.
After a few years, the wealthy families in Beijing finally remembered that the Qi family had such a second daughter. Although she was an adopted daughter, the unsuccessful luxurious dinner party many years ago was still deeply engraved in the hearts of some people in Beijing.
The Qi family rarely holds dinner parties, but every time they do, they are extremely grand. The people invited are all of extraordinary status, and each time is an opportunity to meet powerful people from different circles.
Now that Qi Xiuxu has Ji Jinhe by his side, as soon as the news spread, someone immediately came to his house and wanted to ask Ji Jinhe out shopping.
Their purpose is also very clear - to please Ji Jinhe. Becoming friends with the second lady of the Qi family is also considered climbing up the social ladder.
Today, someone called to make an appointment with Ji Jinhe again.
It is difficult to make an appointment with Qi Xiuxu, but there is a chance if you invite the second lady of the Qi family under the pretext of shopping.
Qi Xiuxu looked at Ji Jinhe, waiting for her decision.
Ji Jinhe's foot has gotten a little better in the past few days and the dull pain is gone.
Ji Jinhe felt a little bored staying in the office with Qi Xiuxu every day, so she agreed.
The one who made an appointment with Ji Jinhe today was Wen Li, the daughter of the Wen family. Wen Li was very polite.
Taking into consideration that she was sitting in a wheelchair, he would squat down when talking to her, with a smile on his face, looking very easy to get along with.
Ji Jinhe has met many different kinds of people over the years, and he was indifferent to Wen Li's advances and was not fooled by her appearance.
When getting out of the car, Wen Li personally helped Ji Jinhe sit on the wheelchair pushed by the bodyguard and said with concern: "Miss Ji, be careful."
Ji Jinhe responded indifferently.
Few people in the capital knew that the second daughter of the Qi family took Madam Qi's surname Ji, and Wen Li was well-informed.
The two of them did not travel in a low-key manner. Several well-trained bodyguards followed behind them, and Cheng Feng also followed closely, pushing Ji Jinhe's wheelchair, just like a gangster lady traveling.
It was the first time for Wen Li to experience such a situation. Standing next to Ji Jinhe, he felt a little nervous, and his palms became warm and moist.
People around looked over curiously, but didn't dare to look any further because of the bodyguards.
The two entered a high-end luxury bag store, and the bodyguard stood respectfully at the door with his hands behind his back.
The salesperson came over enthusiastically. Ji Jinhe tapped twice in the air and saw Wen Li's eyes fixed on a bag, so he pointed at it and said, "Pack all these up."
The salesman's smile widened a little, and he bent down to 90 degrees and responded respectfully.
Wen Li was surprised by Ji Jinhe's behavior and quickly waved his hand and said, "Miss Ji, you don't have to buy it for me."
The lower half of Ji Jinhe's face was hidden under the mask, and her beautiful eyes curved: "As a thank you gift for accompanying me shopping."
Wen Li naturally wouldn't miss the opportunity to get closer to Ji Jinhe. She put on a smile and said, "Then I'll treat Miss Ji to dinner next time."
After strolling around for a while, the group entered the dessert shop in the mall.
Ji Jinhe didn't feel very tired sitting in the wheelchair, but he felt a little dizzy after walking around for a long time.
Wen Li was very good at observing people's emotions. He noticed Ji Jinhe stroking his eyes and appropriately suggested having some dessert and taking a break.
It is very comfortable to get along with people who can read people's expressions. Ji Jinhe knows that not everyone in the world is so smart, and she admires smart people.
Ji Jinhe felt very comfortable being with Wen Li. Even though she approached him with ulterior motives, Wen Li would not try to please her deliberately and kept a good distance from her.
This mall is a circular building. The dessert shop's private room is close to the window, and you can see the scene inside the store on the next floor by looking out.
Ji Jinhe took off her mask after entering the box. She couldn't wear a mask all her life. Besides, she would soon be able to go out as the second daughter of the Qi family.
Ji Jinhe looked out the window happily. The window was very large and he could see most of the shopping mall.
However, the mood didn’t last long before I saw someone familiar.
Downstairs, Xu Jinxi was shopping with the girl in the pink hip skirt from last time, and the two of them seemed to have a conflict with two other girls.
Ji Jinhe narrowed his eyes and raised his hand to call Cheng Feng.
Cheng Feng bent down respectfully to listen to her instructions, then walked out.
Wen Li noticed the commotion over here and followed her gaze. Thinking Ji Jinhe was curious about the identities of the people below, he introduced them to Ji Jinhe: "That's the daughter of the Xu family and the second daughter of the Jin family. Across from them are the twin sisters of the Chen family."
"Yeah, I know." Ji Jinhe nodded and drank the mellow black tea slowly.
The black tea in this shop is brewed very well. Ji Jinhe narrowed his eyes and felt happy.
"They seem to have had an argument." Wen Li approached Ji Jinhe and said gossipingly, "The Chen sisters have an old grudge against the second young lady of the Jin family."
"Hmm?" Ji Jinhe was puzzled.
Wen Li saw Ji Jinhe's interest and continued, "The Chen sisters originally had a fiancé, and that fiancé had always been a thorn in their side. But then, for some reason, that man got involved with the Jin family's eldest daughter's fiancé, and all three of them felt that the other hadn't been able to control their own men."
Wen Li paused, giving Ji Jinhe time to react.
Ji Jinhe was extremely surprised. She had heard that the eldest daughter of the Jin family's fiancé was a playboy, but she didn't know that he was a bisexual.
"A few days ago, three people caught someone cheating in a hotel again." Wen Li saw that Ji Jinhe had almost recovered and continued, "The five of them almost got into a fight. The Chen sisters were already playing a brawl, and now it's turned into a big fight..."
