Chapter 480 Do you want to throw a smoke bomb for Chu Qi?
Before Huo Beiyan could speak, Ji Linshen chuckled and asked, "Then Third Brother, is your relationship with Xie Yi normal?"
He kicked the question back.
Lu Jianheng didn't even think about it and blurted out: "Nonsense, I grew up with him naked, how can it be abnormal?"
Huo Beiyan smiled and poured himself a glass of wine. The amber liquid swayed in the glass. He raised the glass and took over the conversation: "Then Ji Linshen and I have a life-long friendship."
After saying that, he bowed softly in Ji Linshen's direction.
Ji Linshen picked up the wine glass and replied lightly: "Yeah." It was considered as a tacit agreement.
The two of them clinked their glasses silently across the coffee table and drank their drinks.
Lu Jianheng felt his head hurt even more as he watched the two of them interacting in a charade.
He was too lazy to delve into it further and just drank his fill.
After a few drinks, the fatigue, self-blame and huge psychological pressure of the past few days came flooding back like a tide.
He leaned back on the sofa, looking at the ice cubes shaking in the cup, his eyes a little unfocused, and his voice was hard to hide his dejection: "Oh, what a fucking failure..."
Lu Jianheng laughed at himself: "I am not a good brother. I can't even take care of my own sister. I am not a good brother. I can't help my eldest brother at all. What the hell..."
His voice choked, and he couldn't continue. All that was left was a deep sense of powerlessness.
Ji Linshen put down his wine glass and said slowly: "Third brother, it's not your fault that Manman was like that."
His tone was firm, as if he was stating an indisputable fact.
Huo Beiyan's hand, which was holding the decanter and preparing to add more wine, suddenly stopped.
Ji Linshen's words touched her sensitive nerves: "Lu Shiman? What happened to her?"
Ji Linshen rubbed the wall of the cup with his fingertips, thought for a moment, and decided to let Huo Beiyan know.
After all, Lu Shiman and Qin Jiaojiao have a special relationship. Huo Beiyan will know it sooner or later, and his cooperation may be needed in the future.
He took out his cell phone, called up the summary of Pei Mo Ning's diagnosis report, and turned the screen to Huo Beiyan.
After Huo Beiyan scanned the words on the screen, the cynicism on his face disappeared instantly.
As he read deeper, his breathing became heavier and his brows furrowed into a knot.
"Is this... true?"
Ji Lin nodded deeply, his eyes locked on Huo Beiyan: "Your wife can't know about this for the time being."
Huo Beiyan didn't say anything.
He seemed to have drained away all his strength, and he slumped down to the sofa, staring unfocused at the dim light on the ceiling of the box.
The only sound in the box was the low melody of the background music.
After a long while, he slowly spoke: "Ji Linshen, I want to... take Jiaojiao to see this Doctor Pei as well."
Ji Linshen and Lu Jianheng looked at Huo Beiyan at the same time.
Yes.
How come they missed Qin Jiaojiao?
The two are inseparable, have the same lively and bright personality, and even some of their behavior patterns are extremely similar to Qin Jiaojiao.
How could they forget?
Lu Shiman is like that, what about Qin Jiaojiao?
Manman has no parents to love her, but she has four older brothers, but Qin Jiaojiao has none.
There was no one behind her except Lu Shiman.
This is also the reason why Huo Beiyan was so distraught.
Once this idea arose, it grew wildly like a vine.
This reminds me of Qin Jiaojiao’s inappropriate behavior and her attitude towards Lu Shiman.
Perhaps both of them have the same problem.
Lu Jianheng chuckled to himself, "I used to say that they were a difficult pairing, and they were damn right."
......
The two people who were worried about each other were lying on the bed playing the latest version of chest and abdominal muscle matching.
"Wow, this one you unlocked looks great." Qin Jiaojiao moved closer to Lu Shiman.
"It's okay, I think Ji Linshen is still better looking." Lu Shiman smacked her lips.
"Manman, Chu Qi asked you what kind of wedding you wanted, why didn't you reply?" Qin Jiaojiao changed the subject.
"It's not his wedding, why should I go back?" Lu Shiman answered as a matter of course.
"Is it possible that he is asking on behalf of Ji Linshen?"
"Then I won't go back."
"Why?"
Lu Shiman turned his head to look at Qin Jiaojiao: "Have you ever seen an examiner tell the answers to a student's lackey?"
Qin Jiaojiao thought for a moment and nodded: "That makes sense, but you can give a wrong answer."
"Wrong answer?"
"Yeah, just like setting off a smoke bomb on the battlefield to confuse the enemy, you also set off a smoke bomb."
"What you said seems to make sense." Lu Shiman was persuaded and continued playing the game.
"Yeah, yeah, if you like flowers, you can just say you like mud."
"I can say that I like grass, why should I say that I like your dad?" Lu Shiman turned his attention away from the phone and looked at Qin Jiaojiao with a puzzled look.
Qin Jiaojiao suspected that Lu Shiman's ears were just for show: "Mud, mud, it's not your dad, your dad."
"Then if I want to swear a blood oath, can I not say it?"
"Of course, you can say you want to swear brotherhood in Peach Garden."
"That'll take three people."
"Pull out the future children first to make up the number."
"You treat it like shit, you just poop when you say it, and besides, where is the child?"
Qin Jiaojiao suddenly felt that she and Lu Shiman were not on the same wavelength.
"Manman, do you want to have a baby?"
Lu Shiman shook her head: "I don't want to give birth."
"If you don't give birth, I won't give birth either."
"I heard yesterday that Qin Fangfei was pregnant."
"Really? Whose..."
“…”
The topics they exchanged were like interstellar spaceships, so far away that it was impossible to grasp them.
"So, do you want to throw a smoke bomb for Chu Qi?"
After chatting for most of the night, Qin Jiaojiao brought the topic back to the original point.
Lu Shiman thought for a moment and said, "Let it go. I'll let it go now."
Chu Qi lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.
5 hours, 24 minutes, 9 seconds...10 seconds had passed since he sent the test message.
There was no movement in the group.
Didn't even reply with an emoticon.
Chu Qi felt a little panicked. Would he be unable to complete the task given by the young master?
By then, he would lose favor in the young master's heart, and then, the young master would find a new love, and he might be completely banished to the cold palace.
It’s over, it’s over. My beautiful life started to collapse and fall apart when my wife ignored me.
The phone vibrates.
Chu Qi immediately picked up his phone to check.
Lu Shiman: [I prefer a yellow-themed wedding.]
Chu Qi’s eyes widened. No way, no way?
Is the lady crazy?
He replied quickly.
Chu Qi: [@Lu Shiman, Sister Man, they'll all be busted by the police. This kind of... gathering isn't allowed in China.]
Chu Qi: [How about we change to something more serious?]
Qin Jiaojiao: [???]
Lu Shiman: [???]
The two looked at each other and saw shock in each other's eyes.
"He seems to have misunderstood something."
"Should I explain then? Explain that the yellow I mentioned is the color yellow."
Qin Jiaojiao mused, "No need for that. It's just a smokescreen anyway."
Lu Shiman nodded: "Okay, then I won't go back."
