"Brother, what are you talking about?"
As he approached, Shi Qi looked between the two of them suspiciously.
Li Shaoyu chuckled:
"nothing?
Ning Chu, my dad and I are going back to Beijing in the next two days, do you want to come with us?"
Shi Qi glanced at Gu Chijin, smiled and shook his head at Li Shaoyu:
"Brother, you and Dad should go back first. I don't want to go back for now. After all this, I want to stay with Gu Chijin in the military family compound for a while."
There was a flicker of joy between Shi Qi's brows, and he did not hide his liking for Gu Chijin in his words.
Although he knew his sister's choice, Li Shaoyu still felt complicated when he heard her say that.
"Okay, as you wish.
I'll contact you when I return to Beijing.
If you want to return to Beijing, just give me a call and I'll send someone to pick you up."
Sighing, Li Shaoyu gave some instructions and went downstairs.
"By the way, Dad was slightly injured during the Qu family's counterattack."
After taking two steps, Li Shaoyu spoke again.
Shi Qi frowned and chased forward:
"Where is Dad now? Is it serious?"
Seeing her anxious, Li Shaoyu's uncomfortable feeling dissipated and he shook his head:
"It's okay. Dad went to the hospital for treatment and has now returned to the army."
Shi Qi breathed a sigh of relief, his shoulders relaxed, and he pulled Li Shaoyu and said:
"Brother, why don't you let Dad come and live here.
Living here is more convenient than in the army, and I can look after Dad for a few days."
Shi Qi's eyes were full of concern. Li Yuanliang was so good to her, and she couldn't just stand by and watch if something happened to him.
Gu Chijin stepped forward, looked up and said to Li Shaoyu:
"Have you confirmed your return time?"
Li Shaoyu said:
"Tomorrow at the earliest, the day after tomorrow at the latest.
I'll go back and tell Dad later whether I can come tomorrow or not, and I'll see what he thinks."
Shiqi continued:
"If you don't come over, I'll go and bring food to Dad at noon tomorrow."
Li Shaoyu looked at her intently and nodded:
"That's fine. We'll see how things go tomorrow."
After Li Shaoyu left, Gu Chijin found that she was not in a good mood.
"If you really can't let it go, we can make something and send it to the troops later. No need to wait until tomorrow."
After all, they are Shi Qi's parents, and Gu Chijin doesn't mind the trouble at all as it is something he can do.
Shi Qi thought about it and nodded:
"That's fine. The Qu family's affairs have just been resolved, and Dad and Brother must be very busy.
If they don't come tomorrow, I won't even have the chance to say a word to them.
I'll go there today and explain it to Dad."
Thinking of Ruan Qingwan who was far away in the capital, Shi Qi suddenly looked up:
"I'll go write a letter first and ask my brother to take it back to the capital.
If Mom knows I won't go and sees the letter, she won't be too sad."
After finding paper and pen, Shi Qi sat in the study on the second floor of the villa and wrote two papers in a row.
I briefly wrote down what happened during this period and explained in detail why I didn't return to the capital.
After writing the letter, Shi Qi checked it over and over to make sure nothing was missing before folding it and putting it in the envelope.
After taking the letter downstairs, Shi Qi did not see Gu Chijin.
Looking around, Shi Qi heard some movement in the kitchen.
Placing the letter on the coffee table, Shiqi crossed the hall and headed towards the kitchen at the back.
Gu Chijin was peeling an apple in his hand. When he saw Shi Qi come in, he looked up and smiled at her:
"Done? Come and have an apple."
The freshly peeled apple was handed to Shiqi's lips. Shiqi took it and took a bite. The crispy and sweet taste spread in his mouth.
“It’s quite crispy, with just the right amount of sweet and sour.”
Shi Qi doesn't like to eat too sour fruits, but the apples peeled by Gu Chijin have natural fruit acidity, which she can accept.
Shi Qi stretched out his right hand and fed the apple to Gu Chijin's mouth with a smile.
Seeing him lower his eyes and take a bite, Shi Qi's eyebrows curved and he smiled like a little fool.
"I'll cook today, you take a day off."
Gu Chijin took care of himself for ten days in a row and cooked for ten days in a row.
I'm in a good mood today, and the injuries on my hands and feet have almost healed, so Shi Qi wants to cook a meal for himself.
Gu Chijin glanced at her wrist and frowned:
"The injury on your hand hasn't healed yet, so let me do it.
I'm going to deliver food to the troops later. I don't have any good food at home, so I'll go out and buy some."
Shi Qi's eyes lit up, and he immediately took his arm and said crisply:
“I want to go too.
I also want to go to Sister Ji's place and see how the business is going recently."
The situation was unstable before, and the Qu family was a time bomb. She and Gu Chijin stayed in the villa and did not go out because they were afraid of adding burden to the Li family.
Now that the danger is over and the Li family is safe, she can of course go out.
Gu Chijin knew that Shi Qi had been suffocating in the villa for the past ten days. Hearing him say this, he nodded without saying anything more:
"You can go if you want. If you want, we can send the food to the troops today and then go back to the military family compound."
Shi Qi was delighted at first, then hesitated:
"Let's forget about it today. Dad and brother will be here tomorrow, and it won't be convenient for us to go back to the military dependents' compound."
Gu Chijin nodded, and what Shi Qi said made sense.
"Then stay here for one more night and go back to the military dependents' compound tomorrow."
"good."
Shi Qi's eyes sparkled as he looked around the kitchen, looking for a pen and paper to write down what he was going to buy.
The young couple changed their clothes, put some money in their pockets, walked out of the villa and headed towards the street.
The bodyguard who had been guarding outside the villa saw Shi Qi and Gu Chijin go out together, hesitated for a moment, and then quietly followed them.
Their instructions were to protect the young lady's safety. As long as the young lady stayed in the villa for one day, they had to protect her.
Shi Qi was more familiar with the city than Gu Chijin. He took him to the vegetable market, bought some fresh vegetables, and then went to the other end to buy a rooster for four dollars.
I plan to kill it when I get back to the villa, add some fresh mushrooms, and make chicken soup.
Gu Chijin followed Shi Qi with a chicken and vegetables in his hands, his eyes always on her.
Seeing her smiling and greeting familiar faces with enthusiasm and generosity, Gu Chijin felt warm in his heart.
It's nice to have her around.
Staring at Shi Qi's back as he picked vegetables in front of him, Gu Chijin felt very satisfied.
They kept shopping along the way, and seeing that they had spent almost ten yuan, Shi Qi pulled Gu Chijin out of the vegetable market.
"Are you tired? Give me half and I'll carry it."
Gu Chijin took a wrong step and avoided Shi Qi's outstretched hand.
"This is not heavy, I don't need your help."
With a grown man like him here, how could he let Shi Qi carry things?
What's more, the scar on her wrist has not faded yet, and Gu Chijin is even more reluctant to let her work hard.
Shi Qi stood there, looking at the bag in his hand, then at the live chicken, and said in frustration:
"Forget it, let's go home first.
Dad and brother will be back in Beijing tomorrow, so we'll go visit Sister Ji and the others."
It was inconvenient for Gu Chijin to walk in and out with so many dishes. Shi Qi thought about it and decided to go to the store to look for Jiang Ling tomorrow.
Gu Chijin listened to her and nodded without hesitation:
"You arrange it, and I'll listen to you."
