Wei Ziqi was speechless.
Ruan Danchen looked at Wei Ziqi's gloomy face and couldn't bear to see him like this. She secretly tugged at Qi Chenglin and whispered in his ear, "Just let him live in peace for the next 20 years. What's the point of provoking him so early?"
Although she said it in a low voice, Wei Ziqi's hearing was very good and he heard everything clearly. His expression became even worse as he gritted his teeth and said, "It's a pity that you two don't get married."
"It's not a pity. We will definitely get married." Qi Chenglin smiled and said very happily and confidently.
Wei Ziqi was so angry that he was about to flip the table. Fortunately, Qi Chengzhi came out and said, "Time to eat."
So everyone went to the dining room and sat around the table.
Song Yu was pregnant so it was inconvenient for her to eat. Ruan Danchen and Wei Ran took out children's cartoon plates and filled them with food for Qi Youxuan and Little Muran.
Qi Chengzhi also cooked a small bowl of noodles for Qi Youxuan's brother-in-law. Actually, he wasn't too happy about it but Song Yu told him to, so he did.
Song Yu then had Qi Chengzhi take out the child seat prepared for the unborn You Jin and let Little Mu Che sit on it first. Wei Ran raised a bowl of noodles and was about to feed Little Mu Che when Wei Ziqi took it away from him. "I'll feed him.
Usually, when Wei Ziqi was at work and Wei Ran was at home to feed Little Mu Che, Little Mu Che was very mischievous. However, as long as Wei Ziqi was around, all he had to do was look at him indifferently, and little Mu Che would immediately become well-behaved. He would do whatever he was told and eat his meals well.
So Wei Ran didn't argue with Wei Ziqi because she knew that he wanted her to eat well. Sure enough, when he saw that it was Wei Ziqi who fed him, Little Mu Che was especially obedient and didn't dare to be willful. Every time Wei Ziqi fed him a mouthful, he would take a mouthful. Soon, he finished the bowl of noodles.
Wei Ziqi carried Little Mu Che out and let him play with Qi Youxuan and Little Muran.
After eating, everyone drank tea and chatted for a while. They were afraid that Song Yu would be too tired so they left soon.
Qi Chenglin took Ruan Danchen and Qi Youxuan to Jade Villa and asked Guan Liya for his childhood photos.
As Guan Liya went to look for the photos, she turned around and asked, "Why do you want to look at your childhood photos?"
"Danchen wants to see it," Qi Chenglin said.
"If Dan Chen didn't mention it, you wouldn't have thought about it. I bet you've already forgotten what you looked like when you were young," Guan Liya said with a smile.
He went to the study and pulled out a cardboard box from under the bookshelf.
The box was very clean. It could be seen that it was cleaned frequently. Although it was under the bookshelf, there was no dust at all.
Qi Chenglin carried the suitcase to the living room.
Since he was already here, he might as well watch from here. Looking at Guan Liya's happy face, she probably wanted to take a look and reminisce.
Guan Liya sat in the middle, hugging Qi Youxuan and placing the photo album on Qi Youxuan's short legs. Ruan Danchen and Qi Chenglin sat on either side.
The photo album was labeled according to Qi Chenglin's age. Qi Chenglin was the size of a newborn baby. His face was rosy, and his eyes were black and bright. He looked especially energetic.
"He does look quite similar to Youxuan when he was young." Ruan Danchen had seen the photo of Qi Youxuan when he was a baby in the famous garden. He looked very similar to Qi Chenglin, but there were still some differences.
"It's nothing now. It'll be more like when he grows up," Guan Liya said.
She leaned over and flipped through a thick photo album on the coffee table in front of her. As she opened it, she said, "This is from when he was five or six years old. It's the same age as Youxuan now."
In the end, when Guan Liya opened it, Ruan Danchen saw a chubby little boy sitting on the carpet, stretching his short and fat legs in a relaxed manner. He was even holding a piece of watermelon in his little chubby hand.
If not for the yellowish color of the photo, which was different from the current style of clothing, Ruan Danchen would have really thought that the person in the photo was Qi Youxuan.
Qi Youxuan blinked and turned to ask Guan Liya, "This is my father?"
"Yes, this is when he was five years old," Guan Liya said with a smile. Her expression was gentle. She really missed Qi Chenglin's cute appearance when he was young. "Your father loved to eat watermelon when he was young, especially when it was summer. He would eat this small half of watermelon every day."
Guan Liya gestured that it was about the size of a ramen bowl.
Qi Youxuan turned his head to the other side. He looked at Qi Chenglin for a long time before lowering his head to look at the photo again. He then muttered, "You don't look like him at all. Did you have plastic surgery, Dad?"
The five-year-old Qi Chenglin was round and chubby. Now, his facial features were exquisite and sharp.
Qi Chenglin was speechless.
Qi Youxuan stared at the photo for a long time. Suddenly, he said angrily, "Dad, you were also fat when you were young. Why are you always talking about me now!"
Qi Chenglin really regretted it now. If he had known that he looked like this when he was young, he would not have shown it to his mother and son.
He turned to look at Ruan Danchen, who was also looking at him with a smile. It was almost as loving as when she looked at Qi Youxuan.
"Sigh, this is a photo of your father when he was five years old. When he was six, which is your age, he would have slimmed down," Guan Liya said. Fortunately, she did not continue to make things difficult for her son.
She flipped to the middle of the photo album. It was a photo of Qi Chenglin when he was six years old. He was already in elementary school. As expected, he had slimmed down. Although there was still baby fat on his face, one could faintly see his current facial features.
Qi Chenglin heaved a sigh of relief. He straightened his back and felt that he had regained his confidence. He said to Qi Youxuan, "So you still have to continue losing weight."
Qi Youxuan was very disappointed, but he was not too disappointed. At least when he saw Qi Chenglin's photo when he was young, he had confidence in his own looks. He would definitely be very handsome when he grew up.
Since they were already here, they were not in a hurry to leave. It was a good chance for Guan Liya to spend more time with Youxuan. Ever since Youxuan went to school, he was not as free as before.
When he was in kindergarten, he would occasionally come back early. It was not a big deal if he did not want to stay in kindergarten. However, when he went to school, his family would not let him miss a single lesson.
The curriculum of Jixia Academy was not the same as that of ordinary elementary schools. It was closer to that of overseas schools. There was not much handwritten homework and more hands-on homework. More consideration was given to the all-round development of the students.
Ordinary elementary schools would not teach the children a foreign language in the first grade before they had learned all the words of Chinese. However, in Jixia Academy, English and Chinese went hand in hand. Other than those regular lessons, there were pottery lessons, skiing lessons, archery lessons, and martial arts lessons.
When they reached high school, they would also have to learn hunting, rock climbing, and so on.
Therefore, there were not many students who graduated from Jixia Academy who directly went to universities in the country. Most of them went to famous schools overseas. Even if there were students who went to universities in the country, they did not go through the college entrance examination. Instead, they went through the recruitment quota of famous schools in the country and invested a lot of money into the school. This was because the college entrance examination was really not competitive.
Although it was all these classes, the Qi family still valued it. They even wanted to register Qi Youxuan for an extracurricular piano lesson or something after a while to cultivate his character. This little fellow's temperament really needed to be improved.
Although some big families would send their children to Mist Mountain Compound, the Qi family could not bear to let their own children suffer. It was really too difficult. Moreover, they had to stay in T City for a long period of time. It was too far away from them.
Therefore, Jixia Academy's martial arts lessons simply cooperated with Mist Mountain Compound. They hired a coach from Mist Mountain Compound to come and teach once a week.
They did not expect Qi Youxuan to be very good at martial arts. It was just to strengthen his body and it was enough for him to deal with some small thieves.
Therefore, now Guan Liya and Qi Zhongxun had fewer chances to see their grandson. Thinking that Qi Youxuan would not come today, Qi Zhongxun went to play golf with someone and would be back before dinner.
Therefore, they decided to have dinner here before leaving.
In the end, before dinner, they saw the news that there had been an epidemic of influenza recently. The pediatrics department of all the hospitals, including the children's hospital, had been stuffed with many children.
Before Ruan Danchen could notice it, Qi Youxuan went to school on Monday and came back with a cold.
Fortunately, he did not have a fever, but his nose kept running and he sneezed.
Compared to taking medicine, the little fellow was more afraid of injections. It was not easy for Ruan Danchen to promise that as long as he did not have a fever, she would not bring him for injections. She coaxed Qi Youxuan to take the medicine, but the next day, Qi Youxuan began to cough.
Ruan Danchen steamed a sweet orange with salt for him and drank the cough syrup. However, Qi Youxuan still coughed badly and had no appetite to eat. Ruan Danchen was worried, so she stayed with Qi Youxuan when he went to bed.
However, because he coughed too hard and his throat was sore, Qi Youxuan could not fall asleep. In the end, he coughed so hard that he vomited what he had eaten that night.
Ruan Danchen quickly called Qi Chenglin over and wrapped Qi Youxuan in a thick down jacket. She carried him into the car and went to the hospital.
Qi Youxuan was also very uncomfortable, so even though he was afraid of injections, he did not insist. He did not dare to look at the needle and buried his whole body in Ruan Danchen's arms, afraid.
Ruan Danchen's heart ached and she could not help comforting him. Seeing that the child was listless and could not sleep, and his throat was so sore that he was crying, she really wished that she could bear all the pain.
At the hospital, she took his temperature and found that he did not have a fever, so she gave him an anti-inflammatory injection. It was really quite effective. Qi Youxuan really stopped coughing, and his throat no longer hurt that much. Because he was tired for most of the night, he fell asleep the moment he hit the bed.
The next day, Ruan Danchen asked Qi Chenglin to apply for leave from school. She asked Qi Youxuan to rest at home for a day, so that his body would not be weak. Moreover, he did not sleep for most of the night, so he only slept for a total of three hours. Then, he went to school with a pair of panda eyes.
Without enough rest, the body's immune system would be weak. In addition, the children of Jixia Academy did not escape the flu. If they were cross-infected, they would come back even more ill.
Ruan Danchen also applied for leave and stayed at home to take care of Qi Youxuan.
When Manager Zou heard that she was staying at home to take care of Qi Lin's son, he immediately agreed and even asked her if a day was enough.
Although Ruan Danchen doted on Qi Youxuan, she would not let him take so many days off. She estimated that resting at home for a day was enough, so she said that it was enough.
Qi Youxuan lay on the bed, and Ruan Danchen simply accompanied him in his bedroom.
At noon, Qi Youxuan felt much better. He said, "Auntie Ruan, I want to eat noodles."
Ruan Danchen did not say anything and quickly went to cook a bowl for him.
As Qi Youxuan ate, he suddenly looked at her with tears in his eyes.
"What's wrong? Feeling unwell again? "Ruan Danchen quickly touched Qi Youxuan's forehead." Feeling even worse? "
Qi Youxuan shook his head. "In the past, when I was sick, only Auntie Zheng took care of me like this. Now that you're taking care of me, it feels really good."
"I'll take care of you in the future." Ruan Danchen smiled. If not for the bowl of noodles in her hand, she would have directly hugged Qi Youxuan in her arms.
