Chapter 603: Maintaining Male Morality
For a moment, Ji Yuanyuan was unable to react and wondered why Qin Mucheng envied Li Xirui.
"She can receive flowers from you. We have known each other for more than ten years, but I have never received flowers from you. Do you think I shouldn't envy her mother?"
So that's how it is? Ji Yuanyuan laughed.
"Okay, when you teach me how to drive, I'll give you a bouquet of flowers."
Ji Yuanyuan then added, "By the way, I may have to leave for a while on Saturday at noon. Lin Nan wants to meet her little sister who is being sponsored to go to school. She is embarrassed and wants me to accompany her to dinner."
Qin Mucheng asked somewhat disappointedly: "Can't I not go?"
Ji Yuanyuan reached out, touched his arm, and whispered, "Just for a while, two hours at most. Lin Nan begged me, I can't refuse."
Qin Mucheng sighed and said reluctantly: "Okay, I'll take you there then."
"By the way, your colleague and I are not very familiar with each other. Please say a few more words to me later to avoid embarrassment." Ji Yuanyuan turned around and started talking about Li Xirui again.
There is a trap in this sentence. Qin Mucheng is such a smart man that he figured it out immediately.
He immediately expressed his opinion: "I don't know her very well, so you should say a few more words."
"How could that be? Aren't you colleagues?" Ji Yuanyuan asked.
Qin Mucheng explained with a serious look: "I don't have a close relationship with my colleagues, not to mention she is a woman, so of course I have to keep my distance. Although we are colleagues, we haven't said much."
Ji Yuanyuan looked at Qin Mucheng with some suspicion.
Qin Mucheng's body immediately tensed up: "It's true, I didn't lie."
Seeing Qin Mucheng's nervous look, Ji Yuanyuan couldn't help but laugh.
"What are you doing? You're making me sound so fierce. I didn't stop you from talking to your female colleagues. If your parents saw this, they would think I was being unreasonable."
"Although you have never asked me to do so, as a man, you still have to have the necessary awareness." Qin Mucheng said seriously.
Ji Yuanyuan felt so happy that she couldn't help but sigh, "You are quite a man of virtue. You are truly a role model for men."
"What does it mean to observe male virtues?" Qin Mucheng didn't quite understand the words Ji Yuanyuan suddenly used, so he asked.
Ji Yuanyuan patiently explained: "It corresponds to female virtue, which means that you love yourself very much and have good morals."
Qin Mucheng nodded thoughtfully, "It doesn't matter if you are a man or a woman, you should stick to your bottom line."
Ji Yuanyuan curled the corners of her mouth and said nothing more.
Soon, the two arrived at Li Xirui's ward.
The ward was a luxurious suite arranged by Qin Haowen, and he also hired a young female nurse who was very efficient.
When Qin Mucheng and Ji Yuanyuan pushed the door open, the nurse was cleaning the table.
It looked like the Li family of three had just finished their meal.
The nurse didn’t know Qin Mucheng and Ji Yuanyuan, but those who could come must be people Li Xirui knew.
So, the nurse immediately took the rag and went out.
Li Xirui's mother Shan Cuiping saw Qin Mucheng coming in and subconsciously smiled.
But she quickly remembered her daughter's instructions and her face immediately became stern.
Li Xirui's father, Li Hongyi, remembered his daughter's instructions and kept a stern face from beginning to end.
After entering the door, Qin Mucheng greeted Li Hongyi and his wife politely.
Ji Yuanyuan placed the flowers and fruit basket on the table next to her and said politely, "Xi Rui, are you feeling better? Brother Mu Cheng and I were worried about you. We heard that you woke up, so you came here quickly."
Hearing this, Li Hongyi glanced at Ji Yuanyuan and said, "Our Xirui will wake up in the morning, but you guys are just here now! I don't think you have any sincerity at all."
Ji Yuanyuan was choked and explained awkwardly, "We were afraid that we would come too early and disturb Xi Rui. She has just woken up and must not be in a very good mood."
When Shan Cuiping saw her husband playing the good guy, she played the bad guy.
She stepped forward, tugged at her husband's rest, and whispered, "Say less."
After saying that, he looked at Qin Mucheng and Ji Yuanyuan again: "Thank you for keeping me in mind. President Qin has arranged it very well. It has a luxurious ward and a nurse."
Seeing this, Li Xirui also sat up from the bed: "I'm fine, I feel good."
Ji Yuanyuan said, "That's good. Brother Mu Cheng and I are very grateful to you for what happened yesterday. If you have anything to say, just tell us."
Li Xirui smiled bitterly and looked at Qin Mucheng.
Then, as if feeling guilty, he quickly looked away and looked at Ji Yuanyuan: "I just rushed up subconsciously at the time, and didn't think much about the rest. I'm fine now. Boss Qin gave me a long vacation so that I can rest in peace."
Ji Yuanyuan glanced at Qin Mucheng, suggesting that he should say something quickly.
Qin Mucheng thought for a moment, and then said, "If you have any requests, please don't hesitate to contact Secretary Zhong. The police have already arrested the perpetrator."
Li Xirui lowered his head and said expressionlessly: "What can I ask for? I just hope that I won't have scars on my face in the future..."
She sighed, glanced at the table, and said, "Mom, I can't move around very well right now, please pour me two glasses of water."
When Shan Cuiping saw Li Xirui's eyes, she suddenly seemed to think of something.
She came to the table, took her bag and took out a card from it.
"This is the 500,000 yuan that your father asked Secretary Zhong to deliver this morning. I'm returning it to you now." Shan Cuiping said politely.
Qin Mucheng frowned slightly and didn't answer. "Our whole family is very grateful for what happened yesterday. This 500,000 yuan has no special meaning. You have to eat well while you are recovering from your illness."
"I saved you not for money. If I accepted the half a million, it would seem like I have impure motives." Li Xirui's eyes were earnest, but his face showed no expression.
After all, her face was wrapped in thick gauze, so it was impossible for her to make any expression.
"It was my own will to take the knife for you. You didn't force me to do that. So you don't have to think about being responsible for me. You should just take the money back. Mr. Qin arranged the ward and the nurses. Mr. Qin also paid for the surgery. Our family is already very satisfied."
After Li Xirui finished speaking, he glanced at Shan Cuiping indifferently.
Shan Cuiping had a smile on her face, but her heart was bleeding.
She stuffed the card directly into Qin Mucheng's hand: "Xi Rui is right, you should take the money back."
This is five hundred thousand dollars, which is the salary of the couple for many years.
Five hundred thousand is enough to buy a house in City B.
Moreover, judging from the Qin family's intention, there will be more than 500,000 yuan in the future.
The first time I spent 500,000, the next time should be more.
