Qi Yan was still at a loss until the dinner was over.
"You reacted pretty quickly today!" After Zeng Yang and Zeng Xinrou left, Old Qi patted Qi Yan on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Okay, you're just as smart as I was back then!"
Qi Yan lowered his head, his expression unclear, and he didn't say a word.
Old Qi assumed that Qi Yan was dissatisfied with what happened today, so he didn't try to explain anything. He stood up and told him to go out.
Qi Yan stood up, made way for Old Qi, and continued to follow him in silence.
Old Qi seemed to think that he was wrong about what happened today, but he was too lazy to explain to this dumb boy who didn't say a word. The stinky stones in the toilet are stinky and hard. The more you explain, the more the other party will get stuck in a rut. They
were silent all the way until Uncle Wang's car stopped in front of them. Old Qi got in and left the door open for Qi Yan to get in.
But facing the open car door, Qi Yan couldn't open his heart... He was really depressed. Maybe he would feel better if he talked to someone, or maybe he would feel better if he went somewhere to relax.
He got the courage from nowhere and ran away without looking back. He ignored the shouts of Old Qi and Uncle Wang behind him and rushed in one direction without stopping.
Qi Yan did just that. He didn't know which direction he chose. Maybe it was fate, or maybe he just made a random choice.
When he arrived at the door of Jing Ranxiu Medical Clinic, he was finally too tired and sat on the steps outside the door, panting heavily.
Feeling like he had found a place of belonging, Qi Yan propped up his knees with his hands and let them hang down casually.
Qi Yan wore a suit today, well, a super handsome one. It was not the old-fashioned suit, but the most popular suit for young people nowadays. At least it made him look unusually handsome despite his good looks.
A handsome young man was sitting at the door of the clinic, attracting some unknown looks from passers-by. After a while, a person came out of the clinic. She called Qi Yan twice, but got no response. She went around and saw Qi Yan's appearance. Her face changed and she ran back to the clinic in a hurry. After a while, Jing Ranxiu came out.
Seeing Qi Yan's bright and handsome appearance but unusually ferocious look, Jing Ranxiu raised his eyebrows slightly, walked over and tried to pull his arm to pull him up.
But Qi Yan did not respond.
Jing Ranxiu frowned: "What are you doing? What are you doing?"
Qi Yan did not say anything. This look was a bit similar to his previous appearance when he was making trouble, such as when he first came to the clinic and scolded Jing Ranxiu for being a scumbag...
Thinking that the relationship between the two had eased, Jing Ranxiu sighed and squatted in front of him.
"Look up." As he said, he pinched Qi Yan's chin and forced him to look up.
When he saw his face, Jing Ranxiu was stunned.
Tear marks crisscrossed, and tears kept flowing in those blank eyes, but those shining eyes were shouting out of helplessness and helplessness.
Qi Yan's soul seemed to be crying.
Jing Ranxiu's heart ached, and he put his hand on Qi Yan's cheek and gently wiped away his tears with his thumb.
"Why are you crying? You are so stupid."
"My dad..."
As soon as Qi Yan opened his mouth, Jing Ranxiu knew what he was going to say next.
"What nonsense did you hear?" Jing Ranxiu pulled Qi Yan up, holding his shoulders and making him look straight into his eyes: "You heard something strange outside and you came to me crying? It seems that you forgot that there is nothing else here besides me."
"I didn't hear anything nonsense..." Qi Yan felt particularly helpless, and he couldn't stop crying: "Really, um, it's true... What should I do..."
Jing Ranxiu knew from his look that the matter could not be covered up by just a few threatening words.
In his heart, he hated the person who revealed this matter to Qi Yan, but his face was as calm as a pool of clear water.
"So, you are crying here without any certainty?" Jing Ranxiu reached back into his pocket and took out a handkerchief: "Wipe your tears, come in with me, don't embarrass yourself here."
After saying that, Jing Ranxiu walked towards the clinic.

In the office, Jing Ranxiu turned down the afternoon appointment for the clinic, poured a glass of warm water for Qi Yan, and watched him wiping his tears while crying.
A little bully who gets angry for no reason is crying like a child in front of him, and Jing Ranxiu sighed in his heart.
Encountering such a thing... there is nothing you can do.
At this moment, Jing Ranxiu has already put himself in the position of "elder brother is like father". To put it bluntly, if something really happens to Old Qi one day, he and Jing's mother are not the kind of people without humanity. Qi Yan is the only child left. Even if he wants to give up, Jing's mother will have to take care of Qi Yan every day.
"Okay, stop crying. The matter has not been thoroughly verified yet, and you are crying and wailing here. What kind of person is that?"
Qi Yan felt a little comforted in his heart. When he said that, his red eyes suddenly glared at him: "You knew it a long time ago?"
"...accidentally." Jing Ranxiu said lightly: "Who did you hear what?"
Sniffing, Qi Yan slowly told about his experience today and what Zeng Yang said.
"I wasn't familiar with Zeng Yang and Zeng Xinrou before, and I didn't know how close he was to Old Qi, or whether they could be considered brothers. When he went to the bathroom, I was more cautious and followed him in, and I heard him talking on the phone to someone else, saying those words..."
"Although these words confirmed my suspicion that he had other purposes, the phrase 'Old Qi is dying' was like a bomb, and it blew me away."
"What's going on? What do you know?"
Facing Qi Yan's swollen eyes, Jing Ranxiu touched his chin and said seriously, "Your father may have some disease, because when he was in the United States, he went to the hospital for regular checkups and was targeted by some people with bad intentions."
"Some kind of disease?" Qi Yan's heart ignited a flame of hope: "In other words, it's not a serious disease, but just some people's random guesses and nonsense?"
Jing Ranxiu nodded, and Qi Yan cheered, as if the one crying pitifully just now was not him.
With dark eyes, Jing Ranxiu rubbed his cuffs with his fingers. This was a conditioned reflex action when he lied.
Chemotherapy... In a sense, it is cancer.
However, Qi Yan cannot know this for the time being. But letting him know a little bit is good for him.
"So, do you want to go home and have a good talk with your father?"
"...Let's talk about it later." Qi Yan pouted: "This kind of thing depends on the opportunity!"
"I have to remind you that all parents gradually fade away as their children grow up."
If it's too late, don't blame me for not reminding you.
