Old Master Qi snorted and lightly tossed the newspaper onto the coffee table. "Can't you two keep a low profile? Everyone in the city knows about it just by getting a room! I went out to do Tai Chi this morning and people saw me. Do you know what they said to me? They said, 'Old Qi, tell the young man to bear with it and not hurt his great-grandson. My old face! "
Old Master Qi was embarrassed. He even blushed when he mentioned this.
Song Yu's pregnancy was a happy event, and she was pregnant with a boy. After three months, there was no need to keep it a secret. Old Mrs. Han picked up the square dance again and showed off to her old friends. All the neighbors in the neighborhood knew that Qi Chengzhi's young wife was pregnant.
"You're thin-skinned, thin-skinned. Isn't it just a couple getting a room? It's not like you went to get a room with someone else. What are you so shy about? Besides, it's just that they accidentally got photographed by a reporter. That reporter is so bored, why would he take photos of the couple? No, I have to call the newspaper office to complain. " Old Mrs. Han said as she put on her reading glasses and took out her phone to call Han Zhuoli. "Little Han, let me ask you, do you have the phone number of the person in charge of the Capital Morning Post? Oh, okay. "
Old Mrs. Han hung up and said, "Little Han said to text me when he finds it."
Not long after, Han Zhuoli sent her the phone number. It was the private number of the newspaper company's CEO.
Being photographed and reported wasn't a big deal, but Old Mrs. Han was determined to intervene, so no one stopped her.
Old Mrs. Han took the phone and went to the bedroom to call the CEO.
Qi Youxuan was alone in the corner of the living room, holding Qi Chenglin's phone. He covered his mouth and mumbled something into the phone. This was the first time he hadn't seen him watching cartoons.
After a while, Old Mrs. Han came out with the phone and said, "Chenglin, Little Han said on the phone that you kicked him and Little Wei out of your group last night because of a girl?"
Qi Chenglin: "…"
Why was Han Zhuoli's mouth getting bigger and bigger?
Old Mrs. Han quickly walked over and sat down. She leaned over excitedly and asked, "You have a girl in mind? Which family is she from? What's her name? Do we know each other? Where does she live? What does she do? Had You Xuan seen her? Would he be satisfied with her? How is she? Is his personality good? What about his character? Was he kind-hearted? You're not pretending to be nice to Youxuan, are you? "
Although the Old Lady was anxious about Qi Chenglin's marriage, she was even more worried about whether Qi Chenglin's future wife would treat her great-grandson well. Qi Zhongxun and Guan Liya wouldn't sit idly by if the stepmother didn't treat Qi Youxuan well. At worst, they would take care of Qi Youxuan. But after all, it was different from being raised by her own parents. She was afraid that Qi Youxuan would be hurt when he was young. Hurting a child's heart was the most difficult thing to heal.
Thinking of Qi Youxuan, Old Mrs. Han's heart ached. She turned to look at Qi Youxuan, who was sitting on the rocking wooden horse in the corner. He was holding Qi Chenglin's phone and mumbling something.
Qi Chenglin also took a look and said, "You asked so many questions at once, I can't answer all of them. I can only say that her kindness to You Xuan is definitely sincere. I can swear on this."
Old Mrs. Han was also shocked. She didn't expect Qi Chenglin to be so firm. To swear on everything, this oath was really heavy. Looking at Qi Chenglin's serious expression, Old Mrs. Han didn't expect him to be so serious this time. On one hand, she was worried, not knowing if the other party was really as good as Qi Chenglin said. On the other hand, she was very conflicted. This second grandson had been single for so long, and he was finally ready to get rid of it.
Old Mrs. Han was still a little worried and said, "Then why don't we find a day to bring her back to meet him? Look at our family now, it's not like before. We don't care about the other party's identity and background, as long as she's good. "
"That's right, Chenglin. The most important thing now is family harmony. Youxuan can be happy. Since you like her so much and are so serious, then bring her back. Let's meet her. It can also put the girl's heart at ease," Guan Liya said.
Qi Chenglin glanced at Qi Youxuan. He muttered to the phone for a while and looked over.
Qi Chenglin said, "Youxuan is chatting with her right now. Although Youxuan is young, he is surprisingly good at reading people. If he was really pretending, he wouldn't be so close to her."
Old Mrs. Han and Guan Liya both looked over. Qi Youxuan also glanced at them as if they were going to snatch his phone. He quickly climbed down from the wooden horse and turned his back to the corner of the wall. No one knew what he was whispering.
It seemed like he really liked that girl.
"As for meeting her, I definitely have to bring her back to meet her. After a while, when the time is right, I will bring her back." Qi Chenglin's tone was serious, making it hard for Old Mrs. Han and Guan Liya to insist.
"Then who is the other party, what is her name, and what does she do? You can tell us, right?" Guan Liya sat forward, really wanting to know.
Qi Chenglin sneered and said, "If I say it, Grandma will definitely drag you to find her."
"You child, are you looking at your grandma like that?" Old Mrs. Han kept a straight face, but she felt very guilty.
Qi Chenglin smiled and said, "I don't want to put too much pressure on her and make her nervous."
"When did you become so understanding!" Guan Liya said in surprise.
Qi Chenglin: "…"
Song Yu knew that Qi Chenglin was talking about Ruan Danchen, but he didn't expect Qi Chenglin to be so serious. He looked at Qi Chengzhi in surprise.
Qi Chengzhi just smiled and held her hand.
Qi Chenglin refused to say. Qi Chengzhi and Song Yu respected Qi Chenglin's opinion. At the same time, Song Yu also felt that it was better not to put pressure on Ruan Danchen so early, so he naturally wouldn't say anything.
Old Mrs. Han couldn't get anything out of him, so she went to find Qi Youxuan to get some information.
When she got closer, Qi Youxuan was chatting with someone on WeChat. However, the other party was using a nickname, and Old Mrs. Han's eyesight wasn't very good, so she couldn't see clearly if she didn't look carefully.
Qi Youxuan's reaction was very fast. When he saw Old Mrs. Han coming closer, he quickly locked the screen of his phone. His small, meaty hands moved very quickly.
"Child, why are you like your father, always doing all these mysterious things?" Old Mrs. Han glanced at Qi Youxuan helplessly and squatted down to ask him softly, "Youxuan, have you seen your father's girlfriend?"
Unexpectedly, Qi Youxuan pursed his lips in disdain, lowered his voice, and said like a little spy, "Great-grandma, don't mention it. My father hasn't gotten her yet. I heard what you said just now. Actually, it's not that he doesn't want to bring her back, it's that he can't bring her back. "
Old Mrs. Han: "…"
Old Mrs. Han couldn't help but look at Qi Chenglin. He was so good-looking for nothing. Why was he so unpopular with women now?
"Do you like that girl?" Old Mrs. Han asked again.
Qi Youxuan lowered his head in embarrassment and wiped the screen of his phone back and forth. He twisted his round waist and said shyly, "I like her. I want her to be my stepmother."
"You like her that much? Is she good to you? " Old Mrs. Han was happy and worried. It was rare for Qi Youxuan to accept that girl. She didn't want Qi Chenglin to be put in a difficult position, but she was also afraid that Qi Youxuan would get hurt. However, she thought about how Qi Youxuan wanted Song Yu to be his stepmother. She felt that although Qi Youxuan was young, he should know good and bad.
"Yes, she's very good to me." Just thinking about it made Qi Youxuan so happy that his beautiful little face was flushed red like a little apple. "Actually, I think that I look quite similar to her. If I were to go out and say that I'm her biological son, everyone would believe me."
Old Mrs. Han didn't take Qi Youxuan's words seriously. Anyway, Qi Youxuan had been on the road to find a stepmother ever since he was sensible. If he really liked the other party, it was inevitable that he would have some psychological hints.
Old Mrs. Han could only rub Qi Youxuan's little round head and go back.
…
…
On Monday, Qi Chengzhi and Cheng Dongge took Chang Lai to Gravel City on a business trip for the film and television theme park and hotel in Gravel City.
Since her parents still couldn't accept Qi Chengzhi, and if Qi Chengzhi was here, he would definitely insist on going home with her. Her parents wouldn't let him in, and he would wait at the door, which made her worried. She might as well go home when Qi Chengzhi wasn't there. When Yu Qianying's anger slowly subsided, she would try to persuade her little by little.
Song Yu told Old Mrs. Han about her idea. Old Mrs. Han immediately asked the old mansion's driver to send Song Yu home.
Without Qi Chengzhi following her this time, Yu Qianying's expression was much better. Although her attitude was still quite stiff, she was mainly unwilling and couldn't bring herself to do it. In addition, Song Yu was pregnant with Qi Chengzhi's son, so she couldn't ask them to divorce.
The child in Song Yu's belly was both Qi Chengzhi's son and her grandson. This made Yu Qianying feel very conflicted. On one hand, she didn't like Qi Chengzhi's child, but on the other hand, it was her grandson, so she couldn't bear to part with him.
She also knew that, apart from Song Yu, she loved Qi Chengzhi deeply and couldn't leave him. Now that she had a child, and it was a son, the Qi family couldn't let them divorce. If they divorced, fighting for custody of the child would be a problem. The Qi family wouldn't give up on their grandson, and she also wanted a grandson. If the child was awarded to the Qi family, she definitely didn't want to have any contact with the Qi family. What if she missed her grandson then?
Moreover, Song Yu and Qi Chengzhi were inseparable. Now that there was a child, Yu Qianying was only unwilling and unwilling, and there was only helplessness left.
Seeing that Song Yu's belly was getting bigger day by day, the pregnancy was like an inflated balloon at the beginning. Yu Qianying felt that Song Yu's belly seemed to be bigger today than it was on Saturday.
Song Yu came to the kitchen to watch Yu Qianying prepare food. As soon as she came in, a strong fishy smell came to her nose. She looked at the pool and saw a fish with blood lying on it.
Song Yu covered her mouth, turned around, ran into the bathroom, and vomited into the toilet bowl.
Yu Qianying saw it and quickly called Song Donglin. "Old Song, take care of the fire. I'll go see Song Yu."
Yu Qianying took a glass of water and went to the bathroom, just in time to see Song Yu fumbling for a tissue to wipe her mouth.
"It's been four months. Why is the morning sickness still so bad?" Yu Qianying gave the water to Song Yu to rinse her mouth.
"I just can't smell the fishy smell now." Song Yu rinsed her mouth and drank a few mouthfuls of water to moisten her throat. Her throat was sore from vomiting just now. "The other seafood is fine, but the fish is not good."
"Then you can't drink the fish soup I brought you on Saturday, right?" Yu Qianying patted her back.
Song Yu had just come out of the bathroom and was walking to the living room when she heard Yu Qianying's words.
"I drank some too, but I couldn't resist it in the end." Song Yu felt a little sorry for Yu Qianying, so her voice became softer and softer.
"Then what about the fish soup in the end?" Yu Qianying raised her eyebrows.
"Chengzhi drank it." Song Yu's voice became even softer.
Yu Qianying pouted. She knew she couldn't avoid this, so she didn't say a word and went back to the kitchen to freeze the fish.
…
…
Qi Chengzhi arrived at Gravel City. Cheng Dongge had instructed the people from Gravel City to send two cars, one of which would be driven by Chang Lai. He didn't want anyone from the Gravel City company around so that it would be easier to talk in the car and avoid being overheard.
On the way, Qi Chengzhi glanced at the news. It was written that the police had cracked down on the largest illegal car smuggling organization in B City and arrested many important people in the organization. However, the boss of the organization, Wang Qingyi, was still on the run. At the same time, his deputy and some of his subordinates had escaped.
"Look at this news." Qi Chengzhi handed the phone to Cheng Dongge, who was sitting in the front passenger seat.
After Cheng Dongge looked at it, he returned the phone. He didn't need Qi Chengzhi to say anything and immediately made a call.
After hanging up the phone, Cheng Dongge turned around and said, "The police cracked down on the smuggling organization two weeks ago and only announced the news now. That organization has been very careful. The police have been dealing with them for a long time without success. This time, they were able to catch them because of Jian Yi. Wang Qingyi knows about it and has already said that he must catch Jian Yi for revenge. Wang Qingyi is still considered a gangster. He's on the run now and all his foundations are destroyed. There's nothing to care about. Even if he's caught, he has to cripple Jian Yi first. I don't know who warned Jian Yi, but he's also hiding now. He didn't resign from the company he worked for before. However, he's been absent from work for more than a week without any reason. He hasn't returned home and no one knows where he is. "
In fact, Jian Yi really had no choice. The police suddenly found him and had evidence of him buying a smuggled car. They confiscated his car and asked him to assist the police in their investigation. They said that it was every citizen's duty to do so.
Jian Yi only needed to think for a moment to know that it was probably Qi Chengzhi's doing. Qi Chengzhi might not have evidence that he hit Qi Chengzhi with his car, but he definitely knew that Jian Yi did it.
Jian Yi also knew that he couldn't say anything. If Wang Qingyi found out, he wouldn't have a good ending. People like them hated betrayal the most. However, they couldn't stop uniformed police officers from going to his company and his home to look for him every day.
There were police cars parked in front of his company and even his home.
His neighbors guessed that he had committed a crime every day. They all hid far away when they saw him. This wasn't a big deal. Anyway, he usually didn't interact with these neighbors.
The most unbearable thing was the company. It made the customers think that the company had done something illegal. It had an extremely bad impact on the company's reputation. Their income plummeted and they lost many customers. The leader couldn't take it anymore and informed Jian Yi. If this continued, he could only fire him.
Helpless, Jian Yi could only cooperate with the police's investigation. He wanted to be perfunctory, but his skills in this area were too shallow. How could he be a match for the police? In the end, he still told them everything he knew. The police followed the clues and took down Wang Qingyi's nest.
Therefore, on the day of the accident, Jian Yi didn't need anyone to warn him. He had already gone into hiding.
Qi Chengzhi narrowed his eyes and nodded.
When he arrived at the hotel, Qi Chengzhi was the only one left. He called Song Yu. Coincidentally, Song Yu also came out from his parents' house. He got into the car and was on his way home.
"You're here?" Song Yu sat in the back seat and looked at the foggy scenery outside through the window.
The smog was quite heavy today, so he didn't open the windows. The air conditioner was on in the car.
"Yes, I'm already in the hotel room." Qi Chengzhi stood by the window and looked at the scenery below. "What are you doing?"
"I just went back home. I'm on my way home now," Song Yu said softly. When she heard his voice, she couldn't help but smile. Her heart was especially calm.
When he heard her say "back home," Qi Chengzhi's heart also warmed. He felt especially at ease. Even his expression became softer. However, he still couldn't help but worry. "You went by yourself? How did you get there? "
"Don't worry. I told Grandma. She sent Xiao Fan to send me," Song Yu said. The car stopped at a red light. It happened to be close to the roadside. Song Yu looked at the people coming and going on the sidewalk.
"You're afraid that I'll follow you and wait for you outside?" Qi Chengzhi smiled slightly. He immediately guessed what she was thinking.
"Yes, I don't feel at ease if you wait outside. I can't stay at home. I always think that you're outside …" Song Yu said softly. Before she finished speaking, she suddenly stopped. She saw a man pass by the car. He was almost sticking to the car.
It was hot now. He was wearing a short-sleeved shirt but a baseball cap. The brim of the cap was pressed low. He also wore a mask.
The film on the car was not deep. She could still see the person in the car clearly.
The man turned his head and immediately looked at Song Yu through the car window. Song Yu was surprised. Looking at his eyes, she found them familiar. She felt uneasy for no reason. She didn't like the look in his eyes.
Then, she saw the man outside the car raise his hand. He grabbed the mask and pulled it down. The bridge of his nose was already exposed. Just as she was about to see his face clearly, the red light turned green. The car quickly drove away.
Song Yu quickly turned back and saw that the man was also looking at the back of her car. However, he stopped taking off the mask. After looking for a while, he turned and quickly left.
"What's wrong?" Qi Chengzhi frowned slightly when he didn't hear Song Yu speak. "What happened?"
"Nothing." Song Yu shook her head. She wanted to say that it was nothing, but after thinking about it, she still felt uncomfortable. So, she decided to say it. "The light was red just now. The car stopped by the side of the road. I saw a man standing outside the car and looking at me through the window. He looked quite familiar. He was wearing a baseball cap and a mask, so I couldn't see his face clearly. But I just felt that I should know him, and it didn't feel good. He just stared at me as if he was going to take off the mask. Unfortunately, the car drove away, and I didn't see his face. When I turned back, he didn't take off the mask and turned to leave. "
Qi Chengzhi stared out the window. His face darkened and his brows furrowed. He didn't say anything. He didn't want her to worry, so he said, "Since you didn't see him, forget it. It was just a coincidence."
Song Yu nodded and responded.
Qi Chengzhi made a mental note of this matter and changed the topic. He didn't want her to think about it anymore. "How are Mom and Dad's mood when you get home today?"
"Dad has been quite calm. Mom's mood is better. She's not as angry as before. She'll get better slowly." Song Yu thought about it and smiled. "I said that you drank all the fish soup I brought home on Saturday. Mom didn't say anything."
The corners of Qi Chengzhi's mouth curled up slightly. His facial features were gentle. He put one hand into his trouser pocket. "Take care of yourself when you're alone at home. Be careful."
"Aren't you coming back tomorrow?" Song Yu looked out the window again and smiled. "Don't worry. I'm fine at home."
