"What's your name, kid?"
"Mu Ruanruan."
"Ah, Mu Ruanruan, your last name is Mu, then your grandfather..."
"My grandfather's name was Qiu Heng. He died twenty years ago."
"Your grandfather's last name is Qiu? Child, you must have been deceived. If my guess is correct, you should be Ruan Zaiqing's granddaughter. Old Zaiqing never expected that at his age, he would have such a wonderful granddaughter for nothing."
"He, is still alive?"
"Alive! Alive and well."
In the private car, Qi Siji kept asking about Mu Baizhi, how she had been doing over the years, what kind of job she did, how many children she had, her relationship and life, and every detail.
Mu Ruanruan really wanted to interrupt and ask about Ruan Zaiqing, but was constantly interrupted by Qi Siji, as if he didn't want to mention Ruan Zaiqing at all.
If Mu Ruanruan hadn't insisted, he would not have been willing to take her to see Ruan Zaiqing, but would have gone back to Lancheng to visit Mu Baizhi first.
Qi Siji asked someone to call Ruan Zaiqing and just said that he was going to look for him. There was no other extra words. Qi Siji hung up the phone dissatisfied.
this......
No matter how you look at it, it seems that the relationship between the two is very bad.
But Mu Ruanruan could see that it was precisely because their relationship was good enough that they could be so free and easy.
Qi Juan had other things to do, so she didn't follow. She just kept telling the accompanying doctor to take good care of Qi Siji's health.
Before leaving, she told Mu Ruanruan, "Grandpa has a stubborn temper and sometimes he may not listen to the doctor. At that time, you must stand by the doctor and cry when necessary. He can't stand women's tears, no matter their age."
When the two of them were talking together, Qi Siji became impatient and urged them to leave quickly.
Qi Juan performed a segment on the spot.
She said aggrievedly, "Grandpa, I've only been here for a short time and you're already rushing me. Don't you really want to see your granddaughter?"
Qi Siji's expression immediately changed, and his tone softened: "Okay, okay, you two girls have a lot to talk about when you just met. Go ahead, I'll wait for you up front."
After saying that, he paused for a moment before adding, "But don't talk too long, we'll see each other often in the future."
The two little girls looked at each other and smiled.
The car headed directly to Jincheng. Lancheng is between Luozhou and Jincheng.
It takes one and a half hours from Luozhou to Lancheng, two hours from Lancheng to Jincheng, and three and a half to four hours from Luozhou to Jincheng.
It was almost noon, and Qi Siji had someone buy lunch for him to eat in the car, not wanting to waste time stopping to eat.
In addition to the car he and Mu Ruanruan were riding in, there were two more cars following behind. One was the two security guards carrying some daily necessities, and the other was the doctor and medical supplies.
Originally, the doctor did not allow him to travel far and insisted on waiting until he was discharged from the hospital normally. This time, his blood sugar suddenly rose and he fainted at home, almost causing a serious accident.
The doctor called Qi Jingzhong, but he was busy. The guard answered the phone and said he would tell the leader as soon as possible, but there was no reply, so the doctor didn't dare to discharge the patient.
But Qi Siji insisted that he would not be discharged from the hospital. He refused to take medicine or get injections today. This was not acceptable.
Helpless, Qi Juan called his brother and asked him to persuade his uncle again. After a lot of twists and turns, he was successfully discharged from the hospital. He got in the car and set off with his family doctor and a nurse.
Mu Ruanruan was shocked by his action-oriented attitude. She ate her lunch box while sighing and feeling a little nervous.
Qi Siji said that Ruan Zaiqing was her grandfather. From what she said, it seemed that her grandfather was in a very high position. Wouldn't he be very majestic? Wouldn't it be too abrupt for her to go there alone?
But fortunately, Qi Siji is here.
After eating the boxed lunch, the two of them didn't talk anymore. Qi Siji closed his eyes to rest, and Mu Ruanruan didn't want to disturb him, so she fell asleep in such a nervous state.
When I woke up again, I had already entered the territory of Jincheng.
There was a call from the other end saying that they were going to the family compound, but Qi Siji didn't say anything.
The driver drove quietly.
Mu Ruanruan couldn't fall asleep at all. She was thinking about whether she should call her grandma or her father.
Qi Siji was still asleep.
The car was speeding along the ring road.
After a while, they turned into a small road. Qi Siji asked the driver to stop by the roadside and everyone got off to rest.
The doctor came over to measure the blood sugar, and two security guards came to watch to see if there were any instructions.
Mu Ruanruan walked aside, took out her cell phone, and decided to call home.
The phone was picked up after ringing three times. Mu Ruanruan was hoping it wasn't her grandmother, but when she heard "Hello", it was Ye Qian.
"Mom, what is grandma doing?"
"Ruan Ruan? Why haven't you called in a few days? Mom and Dad are worried about you. Grandma is watering the flowers on the balcony. Did you go to Luozhou and see the person you wanted to see?"
"Yes, but I'm not in Luozhou now. I'm in Jincheng."
"Why did you go to Jincheng? As a girl, you must pay attention to your safety when you are outside. Otherwise, I will ask your dad to go over. I am worried about you walking around like this."
"No need, Mom. Please tell Dad later that I have met Mr. Qi and also found Ruan Zaiqing. He is in Jincheng. I came to Jincheng with Mr. Qi. It's okay. I'm safe."
"Found it? Did you meet him?" Mom lowered her voice.
"Not yet. We'll meet soon, and I'm afraid it won't be easy to call, so I'll tell you and Dad first. For now, Mom, I'll call you later. Don't tell Grandma about this yet. I want to see Ruan Zaiqing's attitude first."
If what Qi Siji said was true, then the two of them were lovers in the past. They have been separated for so long, and I don’t know if he is still waiting for her now.
The car quickly entered the yard where Ruan Zaiqing lived. The guard at the door asked a few questions and then let them in.
After getting off the car, Qi Siji seemed to know that Mu Ruanruan was nervous, so he took her hand and said, "When he sees you, he will be more nervous than you."
After that, he told the driver, "Call Commander Ruan and tell him to be prepared. Don't get too excited. If necessary, call the medical staff."
The driver was also a security guard, and now he was wearing plain clothes outside. He told the other party exactly what he had said.
Ruan Zaiqing's home is an independent small courtyard, which is full of flowers, plants and vegetables. The house is not big, but exquisite and beautiful. There are not many people there, only an aunt in her forties who helps with watering.
"Zaiqing." Qi Siji called him.
The squatting man stood up. Although he was old, he was still as tall as a pine tree. He was wearing a Zhongshan suit and was over a meter tall. His eyebrows were sharp and his eyes were bright. His facial features were strong, and he could vaguely see the handsome appearance of his youth.
He looked over, but not at Qi Siji. Instead, he stared at Mu Ruanruan beside Qi Siji, staring at her without blinking, as if looking through her at the person in the distant time and space.
