Chapter 351: A Glance for a Thousand Years
Xiao Zhenyu looked at his daughter who was frowning and tangled, "Yanzi, if you don't believe that Ziquan is at his house, let's take him to call home now."
Before Xiao Jiyan could say anything, she heard Su Shuoci's voice: "Director Xiao, isn't it forbidden to make phone calls casually?"
"That's usually the case, but I have the privilege."
"Then go make a call." Su Shuoci was more anxious than the Xiao family father and daughter.
Soon, the call was connected, and Xiao Zhenyu pressed the hands-free button: [Hello, the host is cooking, who are you? ]
Xiao Rui's cheerful voice came from the other end of the phone.
[Xiao Rui, why don't you go to the kitchen to help? ] Su Shuoci said unhappily.
[It’s my son-in-law. My aunt asked Fu Guoguo to help in the kitchen and wouldn’t let us in.
Oh, by the way, Brother Geng called earlier and said they were busy and asked us to drive to pick you up.
Jing Yi has already driven there and should be almost at the entrance of the institute. You should come back quickly to have lunch.
Son-in-law, Brother Ziquan's poison has been cured today, so my aunt said she would cook some delicious dishes for us to celebrate. 】
[Xiao Rui, what did you say just now? ] Xiao Jiyan asked excitedly while standing beside the phone.
"Bang." Xiao Rui hung up the phone.
Xiao Zhenyu: ...This nephew has never been reliable! "Yanzi, Xiao Rui just said that Ziquan is also at Comrade Su's house. Do you want to go to Comrade Su's house for dinner?"
"I'll listen to my father. Comrade Su, let me take you back." Xiao Jiyan said awkwardly.
"There's no need for Comrade Xiao to send me off. Han Jingyi has already driven over to pick me up." Su Shuoci said expressionlessly.
His wife cooked the meal herself, and he was eager to go back and help, and was in no mood to waste time with the Xiao father and daughter.
After saying that, he turned his wheelchair around and walked away quickly. His wheelchair was automatic, flexible and fast.
Xiao Jiyan ran after him and apologized: "Comrade Su, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have distrusted you. I just wanted to go to your house for a meal, is that okay?"
"As long as you can keep up, it's up to you."
Xiao Jiyan left her father behind and chased after Su Shuoci breathlessly without even saying a word to him.
Xiao Zhenyu looked at his daughter like this, smiled and shook his head, then turned around and went to work in the laboratory without saying anything.
He had to find out Su Shuoci's information and check it out. There was still an hour before lunch...
At the Su residence, Xiao Rui was so shocked that he hung up the phone and yelled, "Grandpa, aunt, this is terrible, I'm hallucinating."
"Xiao Rui, what are you mumbling about?" Mu Ziquan warned in a low voice. He was sitting in a wheelchair at the kitchen door, watching Jiaojiao cook.
After he vomited out the poison, Gu Jiaojiao fed him a qi-replenishing pill. After a good sleep, he woke up feeling refreshed.
Xiao Rui has been afraid of Mu Ziquan since he was a child. He turned sideways and wanted to go into the kitchen to complain to Gu Jiaojiao.
Mu Ziquan blocked him at the door. What a joke! He didn't even go into the kitchen. Xiao Rui wanted to enter the kitchen but there was no door.
"Xiao Rui, what are you hallucinating about? Did Brother Shuo Ci call me just now?"
Gu Jiaojiao has good hearing, and she originally thought that Xiao Rui would go into the kitchen to talk to her.
After waiting for a long time and still not seeing Xiao Rui, she took the time to stick her head out of the door and ask him.
"Aunt, I just received a call from my uncle, and I heard the voice of my cousin Yan Zi next to me."
Xiao Rui said with a smile, and even provocatively stuck out his tongue at Mu Ziquan.
"How old is your cousin Yan Zi? Is she pretty?" Gu Jiaojiao wanted to tease Xiao Rui.
Who made him make such a fuss over such a small matter and disturb her while she was cooking?
"My cousin Yan Zi is pretty and she's 22 years old this year. She's wanted to marry Brother Zi Quan since she was a child, so she's never been willing to find a partner."
Mu Ziquan: ...I thank you to all the ancestors of the Xiao family for eighteen generations!
"Haha...it must be Brother Shuoci who said Mu Ziquan is at our house, and your cousin Yan Zi didn't believe it, so they called back together to verify it."
After saying that, Gu Jiaojiao went into the kitchen to busy herself, leaving Mu Ziquan sitting at the kitchen door in embarrassment.
When several old men heard Xiao Rui's voice, they all came out of the laboratory, still rubbing pills in their hands.
Countless accusing eyes were directed at Xiao Rui, especially Mu Ziquan's eyes, which were like a sharp knife.
When Xiao Rui saw the two bodyguards looking at him with complicated eyes, he almost ran away.
"What did I say wrong? Why are you looking at me so horribly?" Xiao Rui rubbed his left arm with his right hand.
"You said nothing wrong, it's just that your voice was too loud and disturbed us while we were rubbing the pills." Old Xiao reminded helplessly.
Then he continued to go into the laboratory to rub the pills. Mr. Mu looked at his grandson meaningfully.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
He has always liked the girl from the Xiao family, but his grandson had always been in the war zone and had not met Yan very often.
Later, when the grandson came home injured, Yan didn't despise him. She went to the Mu family every day to get close to him.
But his grandson has an attitude that he is disabled and unworthy and doesn’t want to care about anyone!
Mu Ziquan shuddered when he saw the look from his grandfather. Although his childhood was hard, it was also happy.
Although his father was a hero, he was undercover in the enemy camp and died before the war was won.
Later, their family was caught by hostile forces and they had to endure the hardships for many years without being able to explain themselves.
When he was fifteen, his grandfather asked an old comrade-in-arms to send him to the army for training under an assumed name, so he didn't suffer much.
So he worked very hard and shed more tears than most people. He was not unaware of Xiao Jiyan's feelings for him.
But he hasn't achieved the desired results yet, doesn't want to be constrained by love affairs, and doesn't want to get married.
Later, he was injured and often went crazy and became violent and difficult to control, making him even less qualified to talk about feelings.
But ever since he met Gu Jiaojiao, he realized that all those were just excuses.
He just hadn't met the girl who made his heart beat faster. He finally understood what the book meant by love at first sight.
At that time, he was suffering from a manic episode, and her tenderness moved his heart, even when he was manic.
But, she doesn't belong to him after all!
Mu Ziquan quietly looked at the busy figures in the Su family's kitchen, feeling mixed emotions.
Thinking of such scenes, which he would never be able to watch again, made him feel even more heartbroken, even more painful than when the poisonous insect was in his body.
Hearing the sound of a car at the door, Mu Ziquan turned his wheelchair with difficulty. He faced the door, as if expecting someone to arrive.
Xiao Jiyan followed Su Shuoci and as soon as she entered the house, she saw her brother Ziquan looking at her.
Her heart was beating like a drum. She stopped and looked at the person she was thinking about lovingly.
After a long time, she looked at her brother Ziquan again, but his eyes were unfocused.
This realization was like a bucket of cold water that extinguished all her enthusiasm. "Brother Ziquan, are you feeling unwell?"
"I'm not feeling unwell anywhere. Why did Miss Xiao come to the Su family?" Mu Ziquan asked calmly.
