"That second son is really something."
Qi Yunren sighed and asked the servant to bring an ice pack.
Julia took the ice pack and applied it to her daughter's skin. Looking at her beloved daughter, her brows furrowed involuntarily.
The Qi family members present naturally knew why Qi Yunli hadn't returned.
If Qi's father doesn't personally apologize, it will be difficult to bring Qi Yunli back.
"If he doesn't come back, so be it. One more or one less won't make a difference."
Qi Tianxiong spoke with a stern face and cold words.
No one else dared to say anything more. The Qi family was known for its strict family rules; otherwise, why would Qi Yun'en have been forcibly sent abroad when he was pursuing Xiao Luo'an?
In Qi Tianxiong's eyes, his daughter was always pampered by others, so there was no reason for her to pamper others.
Even if it's Young Master Xiao, it won't work.
That evening, Xiao Luoan hosted a banquet at the Grand Banquet Hotel, inviting several friends, including Mo Wenqing and Gu Cixi, to congratulate Qi Yunli.
As for why Si Jinyan didn't call him "Senior Brother," it's because he was currently enjoying a romantic time with Chu Wanli and was so engrossed in their conversation that he forgot all about home.
"Congratulations to Yunli for finally being exonerated."
Several people raised their glasses in celebration at the dinner table.
"I owe this all to Miss Si. Without her, I'm afraid I would never have been able to hold a scalpel in my life."
"I'd like to propose a toast to Miss Si."
Although these people are Xiao Luoan's brothers, they are all very sensible.
Both of them addressed her as Miss Si or Master Si.
"It was just a small favor."
Si Jinyan was drinking fruit wine because she was still a student...
She drank the fruit wine in one gulp; it was sweet and quite delicious.
Si Jinyan, who had never tasted baijiu before, naively thought that baijiu was sweet...
After a few rounds of drinks, Gu Cixi inquired about Xiao Luoan's business matters.
"You really don't want the West City project anymore?"
The Xiao family has already lost hundreds of millions of yuan by bringing this land back to the tender.
Xiao Luo'an is really willing to give up something so easily.
He would definitely be reluctant to let Gu Cixi come.
“I told Jin Yan that the land was not suitable for construction at the moment, and the higher-ups were pressuring me, so I had no choice but to give up.”
Xiao Luoan used serving chopsticks to put meat on Si Jinyan's plate, telling her to eat as much as she liked.
"Thanks."
Si Jinyan gave a vague answer.
She was the only one eating at the table while the other men started chatting.
"If Master Si says we can't move, then we really can't move."
When Gu Cixi heard that it was Si Jinyan who had stopped it, she knew that if she said something bad, it must be something serious.
He almost risked his life and fortune to bid for the contract.
Are you going to the bidding tomorrow?
Mo Wenqing asked.
"My dad also told me to go and pick up a bargain."
"Not every bargain is worth picking up."
Xiao Luoan laughed and said that he would not eat himself, but would keep feeding Si Jinyan.
"Stop putting food in my bowl, we can't finish it all..."
Si Jinyan glared at him, looking at the mountain of meat in front of her.
This meat is very hard to chew, and it hurts my teeth if I keep chewing it.
"They don't eat meat."
Qi Yunli, who was holding a small piece of stir-fried beef, was rather embarrassed. Should he eat the beef or not?
"Supplementing with protein is very important for the body."
After saying that, Qi Yunli picked up a piece of beef and put it in his mouth.
Not eating is impossible.
"I'll still go check it out tomorrow. If someone wins the bid for that project, I'll just watch for fun."
Gu Cixi smiled with a hint of dread, seemingly eager to see which company had won the bid.
It's nothing more than the powerful families in the capital; ordinary groups can't afford to take on this project.
The cash flow requirements are still quite high.
"I'll go take a look too."
Mo Wenqing said he wanted to join in the fun.
Do you want to go?
Xiao Luoan turned her head and asked Si Jinyan a question.
She shook her head. "Tomorrow is my fourth senior brother's ApL match. I'm going to the venue to cheer him on."
"Then I'll take you there. I've been staying at the Polar Howard Johnson Hotel lately."
Xiao Luoan said.
Gu Cixi, who was standing to the side, looked very unhappy. Couldn't this person consider the feelings of his boss?
Master Si not only offered free accommodation, but he also wanted to stay in a separate room for free.
Are you even going to let him make money?
Xiao Luoan and Si Jinyan had only been dating for a short time, so naturally they wouldn't live together.
But he also wanted to spend more time with Jinyan, so he stayed in a hotel with her every day.
"Great, it seems to be the e-sports arena in Beijing Beijing Garden Ecological Park."
She could remember the address after just one glance.
"Is dating really that comfortable? When did Young Master Xiao, who has no woman around, finally realize this?"
Seeing the two of them acting as if no one else was around, Mo Wenqing couldn't help but ask a question out of curiosity.
"I'm curious too."
Gu Cixi nodded in agreement.
"When the levels of these five hormones in your body—dopamine, norepinephrine, endorphins, phenylethylamine, and vasopressin (the hormone from the posterior pituitary gland)—reach a certain level, love will arise."
Only Dr. Qi explained the origins of love in a very serious manner.
Gu Cixi and Mo Wenqing couldn't help but roll their eyes. The problem was, how could these hormones be increased?
"Phenylephrine sparks the beginnings of love, norepinephrine makes your heart race, dopamine gives you a sense of security, endorphins are sedatives, and hormones are the pheromones that attract two people to each other."
