Chapter 72 Why does the child look like Li Zhinan?
Inside the restaurant!
Ji Nan and Ji Yichen came over first, and Ye Zhu also came earlier. She carried Xiao Ye into the box.
When Ji Nan saw him, he immediately stepped forward with joy: "This must be Xiao Qian's son, he's so handsome, come, Grandpa Ji, hold him."
Ji Nan's face was full of warm smiles, giving people a charitable feeling. Xiao Ye did not refuse and was hugged by him.
Ji Nan looked at the child carefully, trying to see the shadow of Cheng Qian or his senior brothers and sisters in him.
Ji Nan looked for a long time, but didn't see many shadows of his old friends. Instead, he saw the shadow of another person.
Because when the little guy was pulling his hair up, his eyebrows were furrowed, and that charm...
Why does he look a bit like Li Zhinan?
Ji Nan felt that his eyes must be blurry due to old age and he must have seen it wrongly or was hallucinating.
"Xiao Ye, come here. What do you want to eat? Grandpa Ji will get it for you." Because Ji Nan is Cheng Qian's child, he is very rare.
Ji Yichen looked at Xiao Ye from the side and sighed helplessly.
It’s Cheng Qian’s birthday, and logically, Li Zhinan should show up.
Since Cheng Qian didn't invite him, he couldn't make any suggestions.
Ye Zhu's cell phone rang. She took a look and saw that it was Li Zhinan calling.
Ye Zhu hurried out to answer the call.
"Mr. Li..." Ye Zhu didn't dare to call him by his name, because Li Zhinan gave people a very intimidating feeling, and Ye Zhu was always a little afraid of him.
"Where is Xiaoye?" Li Zhinan asked.
Ye Zhu glanced at the door of the box and said, "Oh, I brought Xiao Ye out for dinner. Xiao Qian will be here soon."
"Today is her birthday. Where are you eating?" Li Zhinan actually didn't forget this day.
Ye Zhu was a little embarrassed, but then she suddenly had an idea and said, "Why don't you call Xiao Qian and ask her? I don't know which restaurant we're going to eat at yet."
Li Zhinan said calmly: "If I could ask her, I wouldn't ask you."
"Is Mr. Li coming over?" Ye Zhu was startled.
Li Zhinan said calmly: "I have a gift for her."
Ye Zhu was so nervous that she was sweating. She guessed that Cheng Qian must not have invited Li Zhinan.
If she told Xiao Qian the address of the restaurant and Li Zhinan came over, would she feel disappointed?
"Mr. Li, I'll contact you later. I don't know the restaurant's address yet."
"Thank you." Li Zhinan hung up the phone.
Ye Zhu quickly called Cheng Qian to tell her about this matter.
When Cheng Qian heard that Li Zhinan wanted to come over, her pretty face turned cold. After parking the car on the side of the road, she called Li Zhinan directly.
Li Zhinan answered the phone, his voice devoid of emotion: "It's my birthday today, where have you decided to eat?"
"Thank you for your concern. I already have plans for tonight." Cheng Qian's words were a refusal to invite him.
How could a smart man not hear it?
Li Zhinan taunted, "You're getting a divorce, and you won't even let me show up on your birthday?"
"There's no need for this. I'm hanging up." Cheng Qian threw the phone away and continued driving.
Li Zhinan threw his cell phone on the desk, put his hands on his hips, and looked at the steel forest outside the window.
Doesn’t Cheng Qian even have the patience to talk to him now?
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
"Come in!" Li Zhinan said with a cold expression.
Cheng Yan walked in wearing a stepmother's skirt. She looked fresh and elegant in a silver shirt and gray skirt.
"Zhi Nan, what's wrong? Did someone make you angry?" From his tone just now, Cheng Yan could tell that he was in a bad mood, and she was gentle and concerned.
"Nothing." Li Zhinan suppressed his emotions.
Cheng Yan immediately said in a gentle voice, "Zhi Nan, have you prepared a birthday present for your cousin?"
Li Zhinan was stunned: "You also know that her birthday is today?"
Cheng Yan immediately reached into her bag and pulled out a black brocade box. "This is a gift I asked a friend to buy from abroad. I was thinking, if you're going to have dinner with her tonight, could you give it to her for me?"
Li Zhinan looked at the brocade box. It didn't look like an ordinary gift. He said calmly, "You have the intention, but others may not appreciate it. So forget it."
"Alas, my cousin's personality has become increasingly cold. When we were little, we had a very good relationship." Cheng Yan propped up her cheek and sighed, "She had a very good personality when she was little. My parents always used her as a role model and taught me to learn from her."
"People change." Li Zhinan hummed softly, "Don't say she had a good personality when she was a child. In fact, her personality was good a year ago, too. It's just that she changed recently."
"Maybe losing her parents changed her personality so much that she no longer trusts others easily." Cheng Yan said this with a distressed expression: "Zhi Nan, you must have been very tolerant of her during the years you've been married to her. It's really not easy for you to do this."
Li Zhinan was stunned. Thinking back on the past few years of their marriage, he thought he had treated Cheng Qian well.
He was very generous when it came to money and gifts. Moreover, he thought he had never been mean to her and was always polite in everything. But why was Cheng Qian still not satisfied?
So greedy?
"Let's not talk about this anymore." Li Zhinan said calmly, "Take the gift back, or you can find a time to give it to me."
"Zhi Nan, where are you going now?" Cheng Yan asked him.
"I don't know. Let's ask Luo Sheng and the others to come out for a drink." Li Zhinan was in a bad mood and could only drink to relieve his sorrow.
"Then let me set up this game. I know there's a new winery that's pretty good." Cheng Yan immediately suggested gently.
"Okay, call them." Li Zhinan said indifferently.
Cheng Yan immediately posted a message in the group about gathering at the winery in the evening, and both Luo Sheng and Fang Zhuo responded.
Chu Huaijing said he couldn't come because he had something to do.
Ji Yichen also said that he had something to do and would not come.
Cheng Yan's eyes flickered. Are these two people... going to defect to Cheng Qian's side?
Ji Yichen was trying to make Xiao Ye happy. When he heard the sound of his cell phone, he took a look.
Today is Cheng Qian's birthday, but Cheng Yan organized a group to go to the winery for fun, as if it was intentional.
I wonder if Li Zhinan will go to the winery in the evening.
Cheng Qian and Qiao Silin walked into the box. Ji Nan immediately hugged Xiao Ye and said to Cheng Qian, "Why didn't this child inherit your looks? Does he look like his father?"
Cheng Qian laughed dryly twice: "Yeah, not like me."
Qiao Silin looked carefully at Xiao Ye's facial features with his sharp eyes. Isn't this just a small copy of Li Zhinan?
Even the little expressions when frowning are so similar.
"It's a bit of a pity. I thought your child would look like you." Ji Nan sighed.
Ji Yichen smiled and said, "Dad, Xiaoqian is still young. She will definitely have more children in the future. Maybe she will give birth to a daughter as cute as her."
Qiao Silin's eyes changed slightly and he looked at Cheng Qian deeply.
I thought to myself, she is so beautiful, she must have been popular when she was a child.
Ji Nan immediately took out his mobile phone and found Cheng Qian's childhood photos.
"Look at this little one, there's really nothing to pick."
"Mr. Ji, let me take a look." Qiao Silin immediately leaned over curiously: "This was taken when his teeth fell out. His front teeth are gone."
Cheng Qian felt embarrassed. She didn't expect that Uncle Ji still remembered the care he gave her when she was teething.
Ji Nan glanced at Qiao Silin and said, "When she was still young, her baby teeth were so beautiful. You don't know how to appreciate them."
Qiao Silin laughed heartily: "Mr. Ji, I didn't say she didn't look good when she was changing her teeth. Isn't she quite beautiful now?"
Cheng Qian didn't expect that as soon as she came in, her embarrassing childhood moments would be brought up and people would comment on her. She hurried over to hug Xiao Ye.
Xiao Ye was playing in Ji Yichen's arms. At this time, Ji Yichen's mobile phone screen was on and a dialog box opened.
