Chapter 46
If there was a crack in the ground at the scene.
Jiang Lechuan would definitely crawl into it without hesitation.
Awkward.
It was so damn embarrassing.
If Jiang Lechuan was given another chance, he would definitely not wear leather shoes, but a pair of non-slip sneakers!
But there was no regret pill in life.
Jiang Lechuan could only sit on the ground and stretched out his hand to pull the legs of Wen Renjing, who was watching the excitement and was the happiest.
What were you laughing at? Let’s be embarrassed together!
Gu Qi: "..."
It was so embarrassing. Terribly embarrassing.
Especially when Gu Qi felt the countless confused gazes around her. Gu Qi could only stop Jiang Lechuan's ‘angry and embarrassed’ behavior, supported his arm, and said: "You get up first."
Jiang Lechuan: "..."
He fiercely glared at Wen Renjing before standing up with dissatisfaction with the help of his sister.
However, just as he stood up-
No, he hadn’t stood up yet. Jiang Lechuan squatted down again at lightning speed.
From standing in a split position between Gu Qi and Jiāng Fengzhi, he squatted in the middle of them.
Gu Qi: "..."
What was going on?
Jiang Lechuan changed his hand to tightly grasp Gu Qi's ankle, while his face instantly turned red like a hairy crab.
He stammered: "You, you go first! I... I have a stomachache! I'll rest a bit!"
Who would squat in someone else's banquet hall to rest when they have a stomachache?
And he said he wanted them all to go, but he was holding Gu Qi's legs tightly. What did it mean?
Jiāng Fengzhi was very polite and quickly said: "I'll call the doctor."
But Jiang Lechuan hollered again: "Ah... No need! Don't worry about me!"
When he said this, he squatted on the ground, with his upper body and thighs completely in contact.
Gu Qi was silent for a few seconds before she finally understood.
She glanced at Wen Renjing's suit, reached out again, and stated: "Jacket."
Wen Renjing: "......?"
At first, Wen Renjing didn't understand what was happening. Then he understood it instantly after Gu Qi asked him for a jacket.
The man's lips twitched slightly. It was obvious that he wanted to laugh but couldn't hold it back at all and still tried his best to hold it back.
Gu Qi threw the jacket to Jiang Lechuan, saying: "It should be able to cover it if you hold it with your hand."
Jiang Lechuan: "...QAQ."
Sure enough, Elder Sister could tell.
Jiang Lechuan held Wen Renjing's suit jacket on his arm to cover himself.
Damn it.
How could the quality of these suit pants be so bad!
Jiang Lechuan's face was as stinky as the bottom of a pot.
In contrast, Wen Renjing's face was full of smiles.
Gu Qi patted Wen Renjing's arm, trying to stop him from laughing at Jiang Lechuan. Otherwise, with Jiang Lechuan's fragile self-esteem, he would cry in his quilt at three o'clock in the morning when he thought of this.
Gu Qi completely ignored Jiāng Fengzhi who was still standing in front of her and Jiang Lechuan, and looked directly at Wen Renjing, "Let's go."
Anyway, Wen Renjing's desire to watch the fun was over. Currently, he might even want to see Jiang Lechuan's jokes. So there was no need to stay here any longer.
Having no intention to stay here, Wen Renjing nodded and showed Jiāng Fengzhi an extremely polite and courteous smile: "Then we'll leave first."
Jiang Lechuan wouldn't say such polite words, while Gu Qi couldn’t be bothered to say them. So it was up to Wen Renjing.
After being polite, it was time to leave.
But when they were about to leave, Jiāng Fengzhi suddenly called out: "Gu Qi, can we talk alone?"
Gu Qi turned to Jiāng Fengzhi and asked with some caution: "What do you want to do?"
Jiāng Fengzhi's face, which was always elegant and indifferent, showed a crack because of Gu Qi's words. He lowered his eyes with a glint of sarcasm and said: "Do you have no trust in me?"
Gu Qi's voice was indifferent: "I wished I had never trusted you."
She had once mistakenly thought that Jiāng Fengzhi was a good person and trusted and relied on him completely. Now Gu Qi thought it was ridiculous.
But hate him?
That was not the case.
Jiāng Fengzhi approached her with such a teasing mentality, acted out so many scenes with her, and wove countless beautiful dreams for her.
Even though he had lied to her from the beginning to the end, the sad thing was——
This was the only care and warmth she received in the Jiāng Family, even if it was fake.
She really relied on the future described by Jiāng Fengzhi and the detailed care and concern to have a little happiness in those painful days.
If Jiāng Fengzhi had not appeared, her life would only have had more despair. But it was even more cruel to have given her hope and then break everything.
A touch of emotion that was hard to see through flashed across Jiāng Fengzhi's eyes. He continued: "So you already hate me this much. I just want to tell you that I have put away all your things back then. Do you need to take them away?"
Jiang Lechuan directly snatched to answer and said directly: "Elder Sister, tell me what you need, I will buy it for you."
The implication was that there was no need to follow Jiāng Fengzhi to get things from the past.
Gu Qi directed at Wen Renjing, "It's something very important. You take him to the car first, I'll come over later."
Wen Renjing respected Gu Qi's wish. He put one hand on Jiang Lechuan's neck and said, "Let's go."
Jiang Lechuan didn't want to. He wanted to follow Elder Sister to prevent the Jiāng Family from bullying Elder Sister again.
Then-
Wen Renjing snatched the suit jacket from his hand.
Wen Renjing grabbed one side and pulled it out. Jiang Lechuan grabbed the other side and tried to block his front. Wen Renjing pulled Jiang Lechuan, like pulling an irritable husky, and dragged him out.
Shen Anran stood behind them and watched this ridiculous interaction throughout. She discovered that she couldn't say a word at all and could only watch the departing backs of Gu Qi and Jiāng Fengzhi.
Jiāng Fengzhi didn't even notice her. He didn't even have the basic courtesy of asking the servant to take her to change clothes. His eyes were completely on Gu Qi.
That was obviously her male protagonist.
*
Jiāng Family.
Gu Qi stood outside the door of Jiāng Fengzhi's study, calmly watching him as he went in to look for something that originally belonged to her.
At the entrance, in the most conspicuous position, hung a familiar blue scarf.
Gu Qi naturally recognized it.
That was the one she had knitted for Jiāng Fengzhi.
The style was old and the workmanship was rough. It was out of tune with the luxury brand coat hanging next to it.
Jiāng Fengzhi opened the safe, took out a box from it, and walked up to Gu Qi.
He asked her: "Do you want to come in and sit down and take your time to pick them out?"
Gu Qi straight out uttered: "No need. I know exactly what I want to take."
She opened the box directly. A white rolled-up drawing paper was found inside.
Gu Qi opened it and finally smiled when she saw the sketch on it.
This was a family portrait that Jiang Lechuan had drawn before and had carefully put it in her hands when they met during the Lunar New Year.
Such childish painting skills. He used the brightest colors and he tried very hard to draw Elder Sister the most beautiful.
Gu Qi glanced at Jiāng Fengzhi and said a few polite words to him: "Thank you very much. I got what I want. You can do whatever you want with the rest."
"...Gu Qi." Jiāng Fengzhi looked at her helplessly and asked: "Do you have to talk to me in this tone?"
Gu Qi rolled up the painting carefully and responded: "You know very well that I don't want to talk to you at all."
It was not a question of tone. It was that she don't want to have any communication at all.
Jiāng Fengzhi took a deep breath, calmed down, and said: "In here is everything related to us. You don’t want them all?"
In this box, there were many things he once gave her.
He knew that she had carefully collected all of them.
"Why do I need these? To remind myself over and over again how stupid it was to be deceived by your superb acting skills?" For someone like Jiāng Fengzhi who seemed gentle but was actually indifferent, Gu Qi really couldn't understand why he suddenly became a different person today and said such inexplicable words.
After realizing that her tone seemed a little agitated and her emotions were affected, Gu Qi calmed down in the shortest possible time and turned to mock Jiāng Fengzhi: "Master Jiāng, you love acting so much, do you also plan to enter the entertainment industry?"
"If I say, it wasn't completely fake at the beginning." Jiāng Fengzhi's voice seemed to become lonely for some reason. He gazed at Gu Qi. In his eyes that seemed to be gentle to everyone, there was some inexplicable sadness. Maybe it was the first time in so many years that he wanted to be honest with someone.
He said: "It was indeed a lie at first. But after I made a promise to leave here with you, the look you gave me showed your need and dependence on me. Every time I wanted to help you afterwards, it was sincere wish to. Is there any chance that you can forgive me?"
"Jiāng Fengzhi, there is no point in saying these words." Gu Qi clenched the scroll in her hand, stared at Jiāng Fengzhi, and said: "Whether it is you or Jiāng Zhiyu, those things are in the past in my opinion. I really don't care anymore."
Jiāng Fengzhi kept asking: "Then what do you care about now?"
Gu Qi smiled at him lightly: "The things I care about have never changed from beginning to end."
Protect the people she loves and who love her as well.
Let them live happily and she will feel happy too.
It was just that she once briefly classified Jiāng Fengzhi as this kind of person.
Fortunately, the mistake was corrected in time.
It wasn't her who lied. It wasn't her who felt guilty. So it wasn't her who couldn't let it go.
That was all she had to say.
Gu Qi simply got to it, "I hope I won't hear you talk about the marriage between our two families. You know better than anyone that I won't listen to their arrangements."
Jiāng Fengzhi looked like he was going to say something, but at this moment, there was a very loud noise from behind a door not far away. It seemed that many things were thrown to the ground and the people inside were angry.
Gu Qi looked over.
The strange sound came from Jiāng Zhiyu's room.
Jiāng Zhiyu's roar came through the door again--
"You useless people! You can't even take care of a wounded dog? You might as well die!"
Jāng Fengzhi showed a trace of irritation on his face, suppressed what he wanted to say, and changed his words to say: "I understand. I'll send you back first. As for the rest, we'll talk about it next time."
Obviously, Jiāng Fengzhi was deliberately covering up something.
Gu Qi was smart enough.
At least at this moment, she recalled how many pets suddenly disappeared in Jiāng Family over the years.
At this moment, the reason for their disappearance became obvious.
She did nothing, just walked downstairs, and chose not to meddle in other people's business.
She couldn't change Jiāng Zhiyu.
She might be able to save one, but it was a simple matter for Jiāng Family to buy a new pet and send it to Jiāng Zhiyu.
Jiāng Fengzhi wanted to send Gu Qi away.
But just when he went downstairs, he was stopped by his father Jiāng Anguo, who said he had some company matters to discuss with him.
In Gu Qi's opinion, Jiāng Anguo was also an unfathomable man.
Facing her, the culprit who ruined his daughter's reputation, he could also show a kind smile and say a few polite words to her, as if nothing had happened. In his opinion, Gu Qi was just a sensible and well-behaved junior.
While the couple of the Gong Family who were at a distance, they had ‘bad luck’ written on their face at the sight of her and cast disgusted gazes over from time to time.
In the end, Jiāng Fengzhi failed to send Gu Qi away and went upstairs again with his father.
Gu Qi did not go through the front door either.
Because Wen Renjing had just sent her a message telling her that someone had leaked the news about them all coming to Jiāng Family online and there were reporters blocking the door.
Gu Qi told Wen Renjing the direction and that they would meet at another door of the villa later.
Gu Qi walked past a golf course before finally arriving at the back door of Jiāng Family Villa.
This was a large open space. In Gu Qi’s earliest memory, there were many flowers and plants planted there, but no one came here on most days. Although a gardener was hired to take care of the weeds, it was still quite deserted now.
The door was usually locked and no cars would enter from here. It was a very leisurely job. There was a security guard sitting in the pavilion playing with his mobile phone all day.
Gu Qi was about to walk forward and ask the security guard to open the door for her to leave, but suddenly heard a dog barking.
"Woof! Woof...Mmm woof!"
Gu Qi paused and looked in the direction of the sound. She saw a half-man-high bush.
Gu Qi tentatively walked over there and saw a big white tail wagging in the air. It was not completely blocked.
She walked closer.
There was a dog squatting in the bush...
There was another person.
The man appeared at the Jiāng Family banquet but he wasn’t wearing a suit. Instead, he was wearing a black jacket, a mask and sunglasses. He held down the Samoyed with one hand and held down its mouth with the other hand to prevent it from making any sound.
When Gu Qi found them, Gu Qi could still see a hint of embarrassment on his face despite the man's face being blocked by 90%.
Gu Qi found it strange and was about to ask something, but suddenly took a step back at the sight of blood on the cute Samoyed's legs and said, "Who are you?"
He helped Jiāng Zhiyu abuse pets?
The man immediately put his other hand in front of his lips, said ‘hush’ to Gu Qi, waved at her, and said, "Come closer."
Naturally, Gu Qi was wary.
But looking at the puppy wagging its tail happily, she felt that this man didn't seem to have hurt it.
So Gu Qi walked forward and squatted down reluctantly while the man waved all out.
The man lowered his voice and whispered in her ear: "The last time I came to Jiāng Family, I discovered a secret. Jiāng Zhiyu abused her pet."
"So?"
Gu Qi looked at the Samoyed that was held down by the man, and asked incomprehensibly: "Are you going to steal it?"
"Smart." The man praised Gu Qi and stretched out a hand to shake hands with her: "Help me."
Gu Qi: "?"
She didn't want it.
It was illegal to abuse dogs, but it was also illegal to steal dogs.
It had nothing to do with her.
The man let go of his hand.
The half-grown Samoyed came to Gu Qi, sniffed her and shook its tail, showing the signature smile of a smiling angel.
It was really cute.
It would be better if it didn't limp when walking.
Gu Qi looked at the man in front of him, and asked with a complicated expression: "Aren't you afraid that the Jiāng Family will call the police?"
Even if this place was not within the scope of the surveillance area, it was not difficult to find a dog to trace them.
The man took off his mask and sunglasses.
He looked at Gu Qi, his face full of sincerity: "I have no other choice. The dog's front legs are seriously injured. If it’s not sent to the doctor, it will not be able to walk in the future.
I promise that nothing will happen. The Jiāng Family dare not do anything to me. It's just that taking someone's dog away from the front door is too ostentatious. So this is the only way."
Gu Qi was stunned.
For the first time, she showed the same shocked face as Jiang Lechuan. Looking at the face of the man in front of her, she exlcaimed in disbelief: "...Song Shiqing?"
*
As an actor.
No one would not want to work with Song Shiqing.
After all, there had never been a second genius who was almost at a crushing level in the entire entertainment industry.
And now.
In the many years since Song Shiqing left the entertainment industry, Gu Qi did not expect to meet him and even ‘act’ with him.
Gu Qi was wearing the chest bag that Song Shiqing had prepared long ago. The Samoyed didn’t obediently hang on her abdomen. Its cute big eyes looked at her ignorantly.
Song Shiqing took off his jacket and tried very hard to help Gu Qi put it on and zipped it up.
Gu Qi and Song Shiqing looked at each other.
Song Shiqing gave his sunglasses to Gu Qi to cover her face, bowed to her, and said in a serious voice: "Please."
The two of them and the dog set out on the road to leave.
The security guard sat outside the pavilion eating melon seeds. He didn't expect anyone would leave from here. He looked at them strangely and asked: "Who are you? Why are you leaving from here?"
Can’t blame the security guard for being disrespectful.
One of them was wearing a jacket and the other was wearing a T-shirt. They really didn't look like ‘honorable’ big shots.
Song Shiqing looked at him and said, "I heard that the Jiāng Family invited many celebrities to the banquet. The reporters are blocking the door. My wife is pregnant and it's inconvenient, so I want to go this way."
Gu Qi cooperated very well, reached out and rubbed her ‘belly’, and showed a grateful expression: "Please help me."
"Oh." The security guard nodded to show that he understood and was about to open the door.
Originally, this matter should have been so simple.
But when the security guard was about to open the door, the Samoyed suddenly moved around in Gu Qi's clothes because it felt uncomfortable staying like this.
The security guard rubbed his eyes, stared at Gu Qi's belly, and then looked at Song Shiqing nervously and asked: "Your wife's belly just moved? Is it serious? Do you want me to contact the housekeeper to call a car to take you to the hospital?"
Song Shiqing waved his hand quickly: "No, no."
If the housekeeper came over, everything would be exposed.
Gu Qi forced a smile and explained, "... fetal movement. It's normal to have it happen occasionally."
The security guard was obviously a young man and at least hadn’t been married and had children. So he obviously didn't understand these things. After being confused for a few seconds, he praised, "So that's how it is, then congratulations! What a lively child!"
Chapter 47
Gu Qi had the urge to twitch her lips.
She was a person who didn't show her emotions, so she somewhat held it in.
Song Shiqing was different.
After hearing the security guard's compliment, he laughed out loud.
When he met the security guard's confused eyes,, Song Shiqing adjusted his emotions in a second in order not to let the other party suspect anything and explained: "This child is like my wife, lively and cute. I'm delighted."
Gu Qi: "..."
He was the one who was like a dog. His whole family was like the dogs.
Of course, these words could only be said in her heart. She could only cooperate with a smile on the surface.
For some reason, the security guard became interested and actually chatted with them, asking how many months old the baby was and why it was so big.
Seeing that Song Shiqing and the security guard were really going to chat, Gu Qi could only cough twice to remind Song Shiqing not to talk endlessly.
The longer they stayed, the more dangerous it was. If this Samoyed suddenly barked, there would be no way to smooth things over.
So Song Shiqing changed his words and said to the security guard: "My wife is feeling a little unwell. We have made an urgent appointment for a prenatal checkup at the hospital, so..."
The security guard immediately understood, opened the door, and beckoned Gu Qi and Song Shiqing to leave quickly: "Then go quickly. Don't let anything happen."
Then he stood behind them and sighed: "What a happy family!"
Gu Qi was wearing high heels and almost sprained her ankle because of the security guard's words.
The puppy in her arms suddenly moved around mischievously and Gu Qi lost her balance. Song Shiqing supported her: "Be careful."
When they walked to a corner and made sure that they had disappeared from the security guard's sight, Gu Qi quickly opened her clothes and wanted to put the Samoyed down and hand it back to Song Shiqing.
She didn't want to get involved in these messy things. The reason why she helped Song Shiqing was that the puppy was really pitiful because of its injury and decided to send it to the vet for treatment.
However, when Gu Qi pulled down the zipper, the Samoyed in her arms tried very hard to stick its head out of her arms.
Like a large ball of fluffy dandelions, the hair that was originally flattened instantly became fluffy again. It tilted its head to show Gu Qi a simple and honest smile with a bit of silliness.
Gu Qi: “!”
So, so cute.
Unconsciously, the hand that was originally zipping down the jacket fell on the Samoyed's head.
The little guy was not afraid of people, and even took the initiative to put its head close to Gu Qi's face.
Song Shiqing said: “It seems to like you very much.”
Gu Qi remembered that this was not her dog. It was related to the Jiāng Family and was a trouble.
So Gu Qi resisted the urge to continue stroking the puppy's head and quickly stuffed the Samoyed into Song Shiqing's arms. "Awo! Woof!"
Although the Samoyed lay obediently in Song Shiqing's arms, it looked at Gu Qi with an aggrieved look, as if blaming her for ‘abandoning’ it. Its originally swaying tail also drooped down.
It was really too cute.
Still Gu Qi restrained herself, retracted her gaze, took out her mobile phone, and clicked on Wen Renjing's WeChat box, asking him why he hadn't come yet.
Song Shiqing's eyes fell on her and reported a string of numbers out of the blue.
Gu Qi: "?"
The four eyes met.
She didn't say anything. There was only confusion in her eyes.
"My mobile number is also my WeChat ID." After saying this, Song Shiqing paused. He muttered to himself: "Why does it sound like a greasy boss’s flirty?"
Song Shiqing patted the back of the Samoyed in his arms, lifted it up, and faced Gu Qi: "I mean you can add the contact information so that I can tell you the follow-up situation."
Gu Qi wanted to say that she didn't care.
However, the little Samoyed tilted its head and looked at her with beautiful big eyes.
This kind of look... was really irresistible.
Gu Qi could only lower her head, told Song Shiqing to say the number again, and added his contact information.
When Gu Qi pointed the phone at Song Shiqing, she wanted to confirm with him that she didn't add the wrong person.
At this moment, a cheerful shout rang out-
"Elder Sis! Elder Sis!!!"
Gu Qi turned around and saw Jiang Lechuan sticking his head out of the car window and waving at her.
The driver was naturally Wen Renjing.
The car stopped.
Jiang Lechuan jumped down.
Seeing his elder sister, he perked up. Seeing what was beside, he was even more delighted. He ran over impatiently.
"Puppy? Where did the puppy come from…"
Jiang Lechuan stretched out his hands and wanted to hug the dog, but was stunned when he met the man's eyes.
Jiang Lechuan’s outstretched hands maintained their stance and took three steps back, bumping into Wen Renjing who was walking over.
Wen Renjing covered his forehead and gritted his teeth, "Jiang Lechuan, can you grow an eye on the back of your head?"
However, Jiang Lechuan did not quarrel with him like usual. Instead, he turned around with a horrified expression on his face.
Wen Renjing: "?"
He looked down at Jiang Lechuan and asked, "Why are you looking like you've seen a ghost again?"
Jiang Lechuan swallowed.
He didn't say anything, but pointed at Song Shiqing next to Gu Qi.
That was right!
This was the ghost! It was the same ghost!
Wen Renjing looked in the direction Jiang Lechuan pointed and a hint of surprise appeared on his face.
When Jiang Lechuan said he saw Song Shiqing here, he didn't believe it completely.
Seeing this once undisputed top star in the entertainment industry appear again and standing next to his elder sister, this scene was really a bit unexpected.
Jiang Lechuan was silent for a few seconds.
He walked up and pulled Gu Qi behind him, looking at Song Shiqing. His eyes full of vigilance: "Why are you here? Why are you with my Elder Sister? What do you want to do?"
Wen Renjing and Song Shiqing had never had any contact.
In Wen Renjing's opinion, it was obvious that there was a grudge between this person and Jiang Lechuan.
After all, everyone couldn’t help but be curious about the truth behind the famous fight in the entertainment industry.
In this situation.
Wen Renjing stepped forward to smooth things over, "Leave first. Put aside any new and old grudges you have. If the paparazzi come and we get photographed, it will not be good for anyone."
*
So——
Gu Qi expressionlessly looked at Song Shiqing, who was sitting on her left.
Wen Renjing was driving the car. Gu Qi wanted to sit in the passenger seat, but Jiang Lechuan got there first.
Obviously, Jiang Lechuan didn't want to sit in the back seat with Song Shiqing. They really didn't get along.
It wasn't a big deal. He could sit wherever he wanted.
When Gu Qi sat down and was about to close the door, Jiang Lechuan stopped her.
He said: "No. Can't let you sit together alone!"
Gu Qi: "?"
Although she didn't understand what Jiang Lechuan was doing, she could only stare at Jiang Lechuan and asked: "You don't want to sit with Song Shiqing and you don't want me to sit with Song Shiqing, right?"
Jiang Lechuan nodded vigorously and added: "I hate him."
Wen Renjing coughed twice, reminding: "Don't say that in front of the person."
Song Shiqing smiled at Wen Renjing while sitting in the car: "It’s fine. I hate him too."
"That's fine." Gu Qi looked at Song Shiqing: "Please sit in the passenger seat."
Such a simple question, no need to waste time.
Song Shiqing nodded to indicate yes.
Jiang Lechuan refused again, "What if he and Wen Renjing sit together and say bad things about me?"
For Jiang Lechuan, this was not okay and that was not okay. Anyway, as long as Song Shiqing appeared in front of him, it was not okay.
Song Shiqing looked at him with an unsmiling smile: "Then do you think it's okay for me to sit on the roof?"
Jiang Lechuan immediately agreed: "Okay."
This way he couldn't see him.
Song Shiqing didn't answer either. He just held the Samoyed in his arms and stared at Gu Qi with an expression that said he didn't know what to do.
Gu Qi: "..."
She sat directly in the back seat. Under Jiang Lechuan's surprised gaze, she asked him: "Do you want to sit here too, or go to the front passenger?"
With a face full of unwillingness, Jiang Lechuan could only squeeze in the back seat.
It was not that Gu Qi was on Song Shiqing's side, but the blood on the Samoyed's legs seemed to have dried up. Delaying any more would only make things worse.
The most urgent matter was to send them to the vet instead of talking nonsense here.
Gu Qi turned to Wen Renjing, "Go to the nearest vet nearby."
Wen Renjing also glanced back from the rearview mirror and asked Song Shiqing, "What's wrong with this dog?"
Song Shiqing simply replied: "It's injured in the leg and walks with a little limping."
Even in this state, it wouldn’t keep still.
The three of them sat side by side in the back row.
The little Samoyed broke free from Song Shiqing's arms and moved toward Gu Qi again.
It put its chin on Gu Qi's leg and stretched out a front paw toward her.
Looking closely, there seemed to be some other scars hidden under the dog's hair.
Seeing the blood on the Samoyed's outstretched front leg, Jiang Lechuan instantly fumed: "No, Song Shiqing, you actually abused the dog? You beast!"
"This is not my dog." Song Shiqing looked innocent: "Elder Sister can testify for me."
This ‘Elder Sister’ naturally referred to Gu Qi.
Although Gu Qi didn't think she and Song Shiqing were so familiar with each other, there was no need to let Jiang Lechuan and Song Shiqing have unnecessary misunderstandings. So she explained: "This is Jiāng Zhiyu's dog. We … brought it out."
Wen Renjing understood and concisely put it: "You actually stole the dog of Jiāng Family."
Jiang Lechuan was shocked: "You stole the dog?!"
Gu Qi: "..."
Okay, it was like this. She said it in a more obscure way and Wen Renjing could still grasp the key points.
Song Shiqing reached out and rubbed Samoyed’s tail that shook in the air. He took the initiative to take responsibility: "I stole it."
Gu Qi nodded.
It had nothing to do with her in the first place.
Seeing Jiang Lechuan's face full of disbelief, as if he was going to call the police to arrest Song Shiqing in the next second, Gu Qi flicked his forehead, "Okay. Look how injured the dog is? No choice but to take it away."
If it continued to stay in the Jiāng Family, the still smiling and tail wagging puppy would be hastily buried under a piece of land next time.
Jiang Lechuan covered his forehead and muttered, "Oh, then he barely did something human."
Gu Qi reached out her hand, rubbed the puppy in front of her who was particularly attached to her for some reason, and silently apologized in her heart.
Sorry.
Because she hated and rejected the Jiāng Family, she thought about ignoring all this. After all, it had nothing to do with her. Nor did she have the ability to completely stop it.
But this kind of her.
She was also like a bystander who once watched school bullying coldly.
Whether it was a human or an animal, they all have passionate emotions and would feel sad when being bullied.
Gu Qi rubbed the puppy's head.
The puppy didn't know what she was thinking. It just stretched out its tongue and gently licked her palm, because it was very happy to be close to someone it liked.
Gu Qi's entire attention was attracted by the puppy that was already lying on her legs. She carefully touched its other paw. When the puppy jumped into her arms, she was startled at first. Then she hugged it helplessly.
It was very big and fluffy and it made her face itchy.
Gu Qi couldn't resist smiling.
Song Shiqing's eyes fell on Gu Qi. The corners of his lips rose a little, but he immediately put away his smile after realizing that he had lost his composure.
At this moment.
Another undisguised gaze also looked over.
Jiang Lechuan began to glare at him.
He gestured with his hand around his neck. The meaning was obvious: If you dare to get close to my Elder Sister, you're dead.
Song Shiqing showed a very standard, eight-tooth fake smile... Oh, no, it was a slight smile.
Of course, such a calm response made Jiang Lechuan even more irked.
He never expected it.
After so many years, this guy still held evil intentions toward his elder sister!
He will never agree!
Absolutely!!!
Chapter 48
Once Gu Qi played with the puppy for a while, she looked up again and saw Jiang Lechuan's face had ‘I'm angry’ written all over.
The Samoyed also gazed at Jiang Lechuan with Gu Qi, tilting his head slightly, not knowing what happened.
Gu Qi didn't know what happened either. She could tell that Jiang Lechuan was unhappy.
Meeting his eyes, Gu Qi decided-
To lower her head and continue to play with the puppy.
A fluffy head and act like a spoiled! So cute!
As for Jiang Lechuan?
Let him fume first!
It won't matter if Jiang Lechuan gets angry for a while. If she didn't play with the puppy, it will go to the doctor with Song Shiqing and she may not see it again.
When the Samoyed lay in her arms, Gu Qi couldn't help but start pondering; should she find some time and raise a pet to accompany her.
She still had some spare money, so she could take care of it herself. And if she joins the production crew, she can also ask someone to take care of it.
She felt that if there was such a little cutie accompanying her, her mood would become better.
Soon.
The car stopped at the entrance of the vet.
With the help of Gu Qi, Song Shiqing carried the Samoyed out of the car and thanked them: "I have troubled you. See you next time."
When Jiang Lechuan saw Gu Qi waving goodbye to the Samoyed (Jiang Lechuan mistakenly thought she was waving to Song Shiqing), Jiang Lechuan became even more furious: "Who wants to have a next time with you!"
Song Shiqing’s face suddenly turned stern: "So rude. No matter what, I used to be your teacher. Do you understand the principle that a teacher is a father for life?"
"Huh? What teacher!" Jiang Lechuan was about to open the door and get out of the car to have a real-life offline 1V1 battle with Song Shiqing.
In order to prevent the previous joke in the entertainment industry from repeating, Gu Qi immediately held down Jiang Lechuan who was about to rush down, bidded farewell to Song Shiqing, and told him to take the puppy in for treatment. She also asked Wen Renjing to drive away quickly.
Although Jiang Lechuan was dissatisfied, he still listened to his elder sister and sat back down.
Before they had time to leave, they saw a valuable luxury car coming behind them and then stopped a few meters away from them.
Jiāng Zhiyu got out of the car and looked at them with a mocking face: "It turned out to be a group crime. I was saying only lowly genes would do such shameless things in other people's homes."
There was a staff at the door.
Song Shiqing handed the puppy to them, gave them a few instructions, and then walked back, "Miss Jiāng’s fire is so big. Isn’t this a matter of urgency? After all, no one would have thought that a wealthy family like the Jiāng Family would have servants who abused pets in private. It is indeed a lowly gene that would do such a dirty action like venting the anger caused by one's own incompetence on animals, don't you think?"
Song Shiqing smiled. With these two light sentences, Jiāng Zhiyu was rendered speechless.
Jiāng Zhiyu didn't argue with Song Shiqing. Or it could be said that her target wasn't him. Instead, she directly turned to the car where Gu Qi was sitting and asked, "Gu Qi, don't you have anything to say? Or is it your habit to seduce men to work for you!"
The driver's door was also opened.
Jiāng Fengzhi also got out of the car. He brought Jiāng Zhiyu here and looked at her with a restraining expression.
Gu Qi broke away from Jiang Lechuan's grasp that wanted to hold her hand in place and also got out of the car: "There are so many minor injuries on the dog and many hairs that were obviously purposely torn off. The leg is also injured. Do you need me to continue?"
"So what?" Jiāng Zhiyu sneered, "What evidence do you have that I did it?"
Gu Qi looked at Jiāng Zhiyu with a smile, "With the reputation of Miss Jiāng, I shouldn't need to produce evidence for such a thing."
"...You!"
Jīng Zhiyu naturally knew that Gu Qi was referring to her notorious school bullying, but in Jiāng Zhiyu's opinion, she was just teaching someone she didn't like a lesson. She didn't force Meng Yu to die. It was Meng Yu herself who was psychologically fragile. It had nothing to do with her!
If it weren't for Gu Qi being a star and if the outside world hadn't paid much attention to her, this incident would just be like light falling leaves and quickly forgotten by everyone. There wouldn’t be any big fuss over such a small thing!
At this time, another man got out of the back seat.
It was Gong Xuanan in a suit, with long hair tied behind his ears. On his overly white face, the dark circles under his eyes were bigger than his eyes. His appearance, which could be called handsome and elegant, now only gave people a sense of weakness and horror, like a half-human and half-ghost.
He stepped forward to persuade them in a hypocritical way: "We are all friends. If you have anything to say, please speak nicely and don't hurt the harmony."
At today's banquet.
Gong Xuanan originally wanted to follow Gu Qi to teach her a lesson, but he didn't expect to see the scene of Gu Qi and his family’s illegitimate son taking the dog away together.
So he immediately went back to tell Jiāng Zhiyu. This led to the current scene.
Jiang Lechuan muttered ‘trouble’ and got out of the car. He pulled Gu Qi behind him and very straightforwardly shifted the blame for Gu Qi: "For every grievance someone is responsible, for every debt there is a debtor. Song Shiqing did it, you should find him. Don't bother my Elder Sis!"
Song Shiqing also nodded, stood up to say that he did it, and told Gu Qi take Jiang Lechuan away first.
Gong Xuanan spoke again at this moment: "This set of heroes saving beauties is really cool."
Jiāng Zhiyu also laughed, as if thinking of something interesting. She eyed Gu Qi: "Do you feel good being protected by this illegitimate child? Speaking of which, you two are really a good match. If you don't like my elder brother and actually have another choice, how about you stay with him? We will still be one family in the future."
Illegitimate child.
These two words were like thunder from the blue sky, making Jiang Lechuan open his mouth so wide that an egg could be stuffed in an instant.
The Gong Family had an illegitimate child, who had recently negotiated a few major projects and threatened Gong Xuanan's absolute inheritance rights. This gossip was no secret in the circle.
Jiang Lechuan didn't expect that the Gong Family's illegitimate child would be Song Shiqing, who had retired for many years.
For a while, the huge amount of information made Jiang Lechuan unable to accept it. He completely froze in place.
Gu Qi never thought that this former top star would have such an ‘explosive’ identity, but in the final analysis, it had nothing to do with her. She slightly widened her eyes and calmed down again in a few breaths.
This kind of illegitimate child scandal wasn't uncommon in wealthy families. Most wealthy families had arranged marriage and had mutual interests. If the illegitimate child was allowed to participate in company affairs, it could only prove that the heir was incompetent in the past.
Seeing that Jiāng Zhiyu had exposed Song Shiqing's identity, Gong Xuanan naturally didn't need to pretend anymore and followed with a mocking tone: "Song Shiqing, say, we’re talking with the young master and young miss of Jiang Family. Do you, a bastard, have the right to make the decision?"
Gong Xuanan gazed at Song Shiqing with a look of condescending disgust, as if he was looking at the dirtiest ant.
In Gong Xuanan's opinion, Song Shiqing's identity wasn't even qualified to communicate with them. The bastard born by a lowly woman outside dared to dream of competing for the inheritance. This was simply a big joke.
Don't know what made Father bewitched to actually let Song Shiqing participate in the management of company affairs. Wasn't he afraid of dirtying the family bloodline and affecting luck?
"Young Master Gong is right." Song Shiqing wasn't angry. Instead, he agreed with him. He looked over at Jiāng Zhiyu. It was obvious that there was something behind his words: "Elder Sister-in-law, I am really looking forward to your wedding with Elder Brother.
Yes, only superior people like them who have the same noble bloodline were a perfect match made in heaven."
Jiāng Fengzhi instantly became alert and looked at Song Shiqing.
What did Song Shiqing know? He must go back to investigate.
Jiāng Fengzhi finally spoke out to stop him and turned to Song Shiqing: "It is my Younger Sister's pet in the end. Thank you for your concern and won't continue to bother you."
The implication was that they will drop the matter and no longer care about it, but they need to take the Samoyed away.
The moment Jiāng Fengzhi was about to go to the vet, Gu Qi stood in front of him and stared at him: "In your opinion, it's just a dog. Its life or death isn't important. Anyway, it's just a toy for you to kill time. Just like me at the beginning, right?"
Jiāng Fengzhi's footsteps froze in place.
He looked down at Gu Qi, obviously didn't expect her to say such a thing. His thin lips turned pale. He tried to defend himself with some difficulty, but he didn't know what to say.
Because——
She was telling the truth.
In the education that Jiāng Fengzhi and Jiāng Zhiyu received, except for those who were stronger than themselves or had useful values, the life and death of others were not important.
People without value were not worse than animals.
Even when Gu Qi was an exception to him.
At first this was his thought. Now that Gu Qi said it, the heart that he thought he had long been numb seemed to be slightly painful.
He wanted to be arrogant and say something to refute her, but under her calm and disappointed eyes, he was powerless.
Gu Qi's voice didn't have any obvious emotional fluctuation: "So, Jiāng Fengzhi, that's why I hate you."
Jiāng Zhiyu suddenly laughed out loud, as if she felt better because it was rare to see her elder brother being humiliated.
She was no longer in a hurry to get her dog back. Instead, she observed Jiāng Fengzhi's expression with interest and commented: "Elder brother, your face is really ugly."
After saying that, Jiāng Zhiyu looked at Gu Qi and said in a joking tone: "If you can make my elder brother cry, I will give you the dog. How about it?"
Of course. Jiāng Zhiyu's smug expression stiffened slightly after receiving Jiāng Fengzhi's cold gazes. At least she behaved and stopped saying such provocative words. Still, she had an expression of watching a good show.
Gu Qi didn't want to meddle in the affairs here anymore.
Just as Song Shiqing said, since he was a member of the Gong Family and his existence had threatened Gong Xuanan's position as the absolute heir, he would naturally have a way to protect this dog that he brought out because he wanted to save it.
She grabbed Jiang Lechuan's wrist, "Let's go."
Jiāng Zhiyu wanted to stop them, but was stopped by Jiāng Fengzhi again.
Wen Renjing looked normal. He watched the whole scene without getting out of the car. He stepped on the accelerator, "Let's go!"
"Tsk." Song Shiqing tilted his head slightly and looked at Jiāng Fengzhi. The faint smile on his originally docile and well-behaved face had been put away. He said directly, "Sure enough. As long as I recall that you are someone she once cared about, I will feel irk."
Chapter 49
The car drove away.
Jiang Lechuan peeked at Gu Qi and opened his mouth.
He wanted to speak, but didn't dare.
It was obvious. Elder Sister wasn’t happy because the Jiāng Family siblings came with that Gong Xuanan.
However, the silence shouldn’t go on like this.
Feeling a little restless, Jiang Lechuan finally changed the subject: "Say, I didn't eat anything just now. How about we go for a midnight snack?"
"Sure." Wen Renjing nodded in agreement and asked Jiang Lechuan to use his mobile phone to search for any delicious barbecue restaurants nearby.
Gu Qi didn't say anything.
Everyone knew her temper. As long as she didn't object, she agreed.
The three of them quickly arrived at a large barbecue restaurant nearby.
There was a jacket left by Song Shiqing in the car, but no one noticed it during the situation then.
Jiang Lechuan didn’t act reserved and put the jacket on himself, covering the embarrassing place.
Wen Renjing took out a few spare masks from the car and distributed them to everyone to cover their faces, but-
It didn't have much effect.
Nonsense.
What ordinary people would wear formal wear to eat barbecue? They were still very eye-catching, okay?
It didn't matter. None of them cared whether they would be recognized or not.
The young waitress recognized them at a glance. When Wen Renjing smiled and signaled her not to get too excited, she covered her mouth and tried to suppress her shock. She took them to the innermost private room
Wen Renjing and Jiang Lechuan sat together, chatted about what to eat, and almost quarreled because of different tastes.
During this process, Gu Qi, who normally showed an irritated expression and spoke out to stop them at the sight of them quarreling in the past, currently maintained her lowered gaze and looked serious and in contemplation.
All of a sudden.
Jiang Lechuan didn't dare to make trouble.
Wen Renjing didn't want to laugh anymore.
The two stopped quarreling, exchanged gaze, and put the menu aside.
At the same time, both were thinking -
Elder Sister, are you still sad because of that Jiāng Fengzhi?
Jiang Lechuan ground his teeth.
Looking at Wen Renjing, he asked with his eyes: What to do?
Wen Renjing took a sip of the tea in front of him. A trace of helplessness flashed on his face.
He could understand.
Jiāng Fengzhi was a good-looking man. His appearance, family background and knowledge were outstanding. Elder Sister must have been deceived by his illusion. It was normal for her to be heartbroken.
So Wen Renjing waved at Jiang Lechuan and whispered in his ear: "The fastest way to get out of a relationship is to start a new one."
"What do you mean?" Jiang Lechuan didn't understand and he asked this.
"You're so stupid." Wen Renjing turned on his phone and searched for the boy band that Jiang Lechuan was in. He said, "Aren't your teammates all pretty good? Introduce one to Elder Sister?"
"...Huh?" Jiang Lechuan couldn't accept it at all. He said, "How can they match... Ugh!"
Before he finished speaking, Wen Renjing covered his mouth tightly.
Wen Renjing still had a nonchalant attitude. He obviously didn't think there was anything wrong with what he said, "Except for the one who came to the show last time, aren't all your teammates famous for their high EQ and easy to get along with? Just find one to chat with Elder Sister to kill time. Not really making them to be your elder brother-in-law."
Jiang Lechuan: "!"
Although Jiang Lechuan was a little befuddled, he hesitated after hearing that he didn't have to call his teammates Elder Brother-in-law.
He stared at Wen Renjing and asked, "Will my Elder Sister be happy if I introduce them to her?"
Wen Renjing answered, "At least she won't be sad because of Jiāng Fengzhi anymore."
Jiang Lechuan still had concerns, "Why don't you introduce your friends?"
"Actor friends that can date and are single are few." Wen Renjing answered.
Actually, the truth was because he was also afraid to call his friend Elder Brother-in-law.
If there must be such a "brother-in-law", it would be very interesting to see Jiang Lechuan's frustrated look, which was simply killing two birds with one stone.
Jiang Lechuan was successfully fooled.
So he tried to show a smile that looked a little more sunny, moved closer to Gu Qi, and called, "Elder Sister, I want to tell you something."
Gu Qi was still in a daze.
She didn’t respond to him. Jiang Lechuan could only reach out and push Gu Qi, calling again: "Elder Sister!"
Only then, Gu Qi seemed to wake up from a dream and looked at Jiang Lechuan with a start, asking: "What's wrong?"
Jiang Lechuan stiffly took out his mobile phone, found a photo with his teammates, and asked: "Elder Sister, you...you..."
He couldn't say it!
What to say?
Elder Sister, which one do you like? I'll ask them to chat with you and make you happy?
Jiang Lechuan was greatly conflicted.
Facing Gu Qi's puzzled expression, he finally uttered: "Elder Sister, do you want to join our group's small group chat? Everyone chat in it every day."
Forget it! Don't choose!
Just let Elder Sister in. They all have to coax Elder Sister for him!
Gu Qi: “……?”
She didn’t understand.
Why was she joining Jiang Lechuan’s group chat? She wasn’t their fan.
So Gu Qi waved her hand and refused, “No need.”
She perfunctorily interacted with biological younger brother.
Gu Qi continued to stare at the table and began to be dazed again.
Jiang Lechuan: “!”
He turned to Wen Renjing with a look of help. His face showing—
What to do? What to do? Save me, save me, save me!
Wen Renjing rolled his eyes.
Jiang Lechuan said such inexplicable words. It would be strange if anyone would pay attention to him.
Wen Renjing was about to speak, but saw Gu Qi suddenly raised her head.
Without anyone’s guidance, her originally frowned brows relaxed. The expression on her face was no longer as solemn as before, as if something that had been bothering her for a long time had finally been answered.
Under the tense watch of Jiang Lechuan and Wen Renjing, Gu Qi slowly said, "I've decided. Let's raise a Samoyed."
Too much hesitation.
On the way back, she kept thinking that she really needed a puppy!
Too cute.
Just a few minutes after leaving the Samoyed, Gu Qi felt empty in her heart.
Really want to rub it again.
She originally wanted to raise a dog. So she went head first into deciding what to raise before contacting the nearby pet store and find a time to buy back the puppy.
If she hesitated too long, she would definitely give up this idea for some random reason.
Jiang Lechuan: “?”
Wen Renjing: “?”
After realizing that her two younger brothers were gaping at her with shocked eyes, Gu Qi blinked at them in confusion and asked, “What’s wrong with you? Why aren’t you ordering?”
Wen Renjing waved his hand: “Nothing, order now.”
Jiang Lechuan smiled like a fool and repeated: “No, nothing, order, order.”
For Jiang Lechuan——
How wonderful!
It turned out that all Elder Sister wanted was to raise a Samoyed! Such a wish that was easy to satisfy? This was too simple!
In Jiang Lechuan's opinion, as long as my Elder Sister wasn't unhappy, that was more important than anything else.
The three of them finished the barbecue together. Afterward, Wen Renjing drove them all back home.
That night, Gu Qi began to look through various official accounts of nearby pet stores to see if there were any Samoyed puppies of the right age to buy.
It wasn’t convenient to contact the store owner so late, so she jotted them down and would ask tomorrow.
Gu Qi was thinking this when her phone suddenly vibrated and a new message came from WeChat.
It was sent by Song Shiqing, a half-minute video.
The Samoyed's legs were obviously bandaged with gauze. It was lying on the ground drinking milk from the bowl, licking the bottom of the bowl clean and raising its head to show a goofy grin.
In addition, Song Shiqing informed her that the dog had been taken away from Jiāng Family by him and it was fine. After a rest and good care, it would be as healthy as other puppies. He grealy appreciated her help today.
Song Shiqing's moment updated with a post, asking if anyone wanted to adopt this Samoyed.
Gu Qi thought of what she saw under those public accounts, there were calls of adoption instead of buying.
She wanted a puppy like this.
In fact, she had this idea since she was very young; thinking that if she had a puppy to protect herself, she would not be bullied.
Now, she had grown up to protect the puppy.
Gu Qi pursed her lips.
Anyway, she wanted to raise a Samoyed. Adoption or buying works. What's more, this dog had a good temper and was friendly. A very good choice.
After Gu Qi sent a message to Song Shiqing, she felt a little self conscious.
Everything seemed too coincidental.
It was as if Song Shiqing knew what she liked and sent such an opportunity to her.
Soon Song Shiqing replied she could
It was just that he didn't have much time, so arrange a time for his assistant to send the dog and its toys and supplies to her home.
In an instant, Gu Qi felt that she was overthinking.
If Song Shiqing wanted to get close to her, he would at least take the initiative to come over.
So Gu Qi and Song Shiqing quickly agreed on the time to send the puppy over. The next morning, as soon as she woke up, Gu Qi went out to the pet store to buy a lot of puppy toys and snacks to prepare for the arrival of the little Samoyed.
When she got home, she found Jiang Lechuan squatting at the door.
Jiang Lechuan was still wearing a suit and had an overly delicate makeup on his face. It was obvious that he had just rushed over from the magazine shooting site and looked out of breath.
There was a box next to his feet.
Seeing Gu Qi coming back, Jiang Lechuan was immediately perked up, "Elder Sister, guess what I brought you... Hmm? How did you know in advance?"
Jiang Lechuan stared at the huge canvas bag in Gu Qi's hand, which was printed with the logo of "XXX Pet Supplies Store".
Taking in Jiang Lechuan's shocked reaction, Gu Qi had a bad feeling in her heart.
No way?
No! Don’t!
Heaven didn’t seem to hear Gu Qi’s inner prayer, because she saw the box at Jiang Lechuan’s feet move.
A fluffy little head popped out of the box that was originally half-closed.
A Samoyed that looked younger than the one yesterday was in the cardboard box and it poked its head out.
It seemed to be more shy. The moment it saw the outside world, it shrank back timidly.
Gu Qi: “…”
She knew it.
Oh my God.
Her wish was to have one puppy, not two.
Jiang Lechuan didn’t understand what kind of complicated feelings Gu Qi was experiencing and called: "Elder Sister, how did you know? You already bought pet supplies?”
At this moment. Gu Qi's cell phone rang. Seeing that it was Wen Renjing calling, she ignored Jiang Lechuan who was chattering nonstop, "Hello."
At this moment.
Wen Renjing's voice slowly spoke: "Elder Sister, I'm on my way to your house and will be there in about ten minutes. I've prepared a surprise for you. Do you want to guess?"
Before Wen Renjing finished speaking, a dog barked on the other end of the phone.
Gu Qi: "..."
She didn't want to guess.
Don't come over! ! !
Chapter 50
Gu Qi felt like she was having a nightmare. Really!
She wanted a dog. Definitely not three!
Definitely! ! !
So when Wen Renjing brought another lively Samoyed to the scene, the place fell into a dead silence.
Wen Renjing raised his eyebrows and looked at Jiang Lechuan, "Oh, you actually have a day of such a quick reaction."
Jiang Lechuan didn't understand what Wen Renjing was implying, but instead was quite delighted: "I didn't expect that we have such a tacit understanding!"
Gu Qi: "..."
You guys should stop having a tacit understanding. Who could save her.
At this moment.
Wen Renjing put down the cage he was carrying and let the little Samoyed out.
This one was obviously much more naughty, and immediately ran over to the one brought by Jiang Lechuan to play together.
The one brought by Jiang Lechuan obviously had ‘social-phobia’ and kept drilling into the cardboard box, whimpering softly.
Jiang Lechuan quickly picked up his own dog and protected it in his arms, hollering at the one brought by Wen Renjing: "Don't come over! Don't come over!"
Gu Qi: "..."
Forget it. Gu Qi sighed, "Come in first and then talk."
——
Wen Renjing seriously stated, "I feel it's the same whether you raise one or two, so why not let them and let them have companionship?"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a knock on the door.
The assistants in suits lined up and brought in the third Samoyed and various pet supplies. "These are all instructed to be given to you by President Song."
Then they politely bidded farewell to Gu Qi.
When the third Samoyed in a cage appeared in this house, Wen Renjing and Jiang Lechuan fell silent.
Wen Renjing thought it was a bit troublesome. Three Samoyeds seemed a bit too much.
Jiang Lechuan thought--
Damn it!
Who sent this third one? Who was that President Song... huh?
Looking at the bandage marks on the front leg of the Samoyed in front of him, Jiang Lechuan felt that he was finally smart for once. He knew the answer at this moment!
Jiang Lechuan turned to his elder sister angrily and asked, "Song Shiqing? Why is his dog here with you? "
"He posted a moment post asking if anyone could adopt a puppy." Gu Qi answered sincerely. She pursed her lips and added: "I think the environment of Gong Family may not be suitable for him to raise a puppy."
Jiang Lechuan didn't believe it: "When did he post a moment post? Why didn't I see it?"
Gu Qi said: "Did you block him before and then forgot?"
Without thinking, Jiang Lechuan denied it: "Impossible! He was the only one I pay attention to besides you..."
The atmosphere instantly became awkward.
Gu Qi looked at Jiang Lechuan with an expression of incomprehension. Wen Renjing looked at Jiang Lechuan, let out a ‘tsk’, and shook his head: "You care about him a lot. Is it possible that what the outside world says is all false and you are actually friends?"
"Are you sick? "Jiang Lechuan was disgusted by Wen Renjing's expression and got goosebumps all over his body. He said, "He retired from the circle for no apparent reason. I wanted to see what happened."
He waited for a long time and didn't see Song Shiqing make any statement.
Although Jiang Lechuan had become a top star now, he still felt as if he had climbed to today's achievements because of Song Shiqing's concession. He had never competed with Song Shiqing, so he felt that he had never properly won.
Within the dissatisfaction, there might be unwillingness to accept it.
At this moment, these desires to win and lose were no longer important. Jiang Lechuan clicked on Song Shiqing's moment and was shocked to find that there was nothing in it.
Jiang Lechuan exclaimed, "Damn, he didn't post it at all!"
In contrast, Gu Qi clicked on Song Shiqing's moment post, "It's here. "
The four eyes stared at each other.
Jiang Lechuan exploded: "Is his moment post only visible to you? I said he had bad intentions! Sister, give this dog back!"
Gu Qi was stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting this situation.
At this moment.
Wen Renjing slowly spoke out and showed the mobile screen to them,: "I can see Song Shiqing's moment post here. There is indeed such a moment post. It seems this moment post isn’t only visible to Elder Sister."
Jiang Lechuan: "...Is it me who is blocked?"
The background music of American bullying sounded in his mind.
It turned out that he was the one who was excluded!
But——
"Why do you have Song Shiqing's contact information?"
Jiang Lechuan stared at Wen Renjing in confusion. He didn't think these two people knew each other at all!
"He added me last night. "Wen Renjing showed a thoughtful expression: "Last year, there was an endorsement from the Gong Family and they aren’t going to renew the contract this year. He came to me to communicate and really wanted me to stay. "
A lie.
In fact, Song Shiqing didn't really need Wen Renjing to renew the contract. He briefly confirmed it and didn't continue the conversation.
However, for this kind of thing, the Gong Family could contact Jinyue. Unless the Gong Family really wanted to continue this cooperation, there was no need for Song Shiqing to contact Wen Renjing himself. Therefore, this contradicted Song Shiqing's approach.
Unless Song Shiqing wanted to add his contact information and used it as an excuse.
Adding his contact information and had no other communication with him seemed to be for the purpose of becoming friends.
Wen Renjing figured it out in the shortest time. The person who was blocked wasn't Jiang Lechuan.
But that moment post was only visible to Gu Qi and him.
If Jiang Lechuan saw it too early, he would definitely discuss this matter with Gu Qi and prevent Gu Qi from adopting the dog rescued by Song Shiqing.
Song Shiqing needed a ‘witness’ to prove that he was treating Gu Qi specially and the witness could only be him.
Wen Renjing squatted down and rubbed the Samoyed he brought, grinned at Gu Qi, and asked: "Elder Sister, which one do you want to keep?"
Jiang Lechuan nervously looked at Gu Qi.
This was the one he specially selected for his elder sister. It was said to be the most gentle!
Gu Qi: "..."
Of course she wanted the one she wanted.
Seeing Wen Renjing and Jiang Lechuan looking at her at the same time, Gu Qi was conflicted.
She knew that their original intention was to give her the puppy she liked.
This was younger brothers’ thought.
For Gu Qi, reason still defeated emotion.
She said: "I really can't raise three dogs. It will be very tiring. ”
She definitely didn't have the energy for this after work.
Puppies were creatures that needed all the love, companionship and protection to grow happily, otherwise the animals would become depressed.
Raising animals wasn't a casual thing. It didn't mean one could raise a lot of them at the same time because one liked them, not to mention that she was still a novice in this regard.
In Gu Qi's opinion, if one chooses to raise a life, one must be responsible for it.
Gu Qi pointed to the one Song Shiqing sent, "I have decided to take care of this puppy. Sending it away is like abandoning it. I can't do it. So I hope you can contact the store where you bought it and send these two dogs back."
Jiang Lechuan and Wen Renjing both showed embarrassed expressions on their faces.
Jiang Lechuan said, "I was in a hurry... added a lot of money. The boss was afraid that I would regret it, so he wrote in the contract that it would never be refunded."
Wen Renjing was obviously not any better. He said, "The store I found didn't have a Samoyed of the right age. I found the most lively and healthy one from the branch in the next city and shipped it overnight. I added money, so the contract is the same."
Waste of saliva.
This kind of good matter of multiplying a Samoyed worth was simply a fallen pie in the sky for the pet store. They wouldn’t allow this business to be withdrawn!
Gu Qi: "..."
Gu Qi gave in, "Leave them here for a few days. You can contact your friends to see if there are any suitable people who can take them away."
Jiang Lechuan obediently nodded.
Wen Renjing took out his phone and started to browse through the list.
Gu Qi looked at them, "Still, thank you very much. I like them very much."
Jiang Lechuan scratched his head, "Why say such things? It's very sentimental."
Wen Renjing felt a little helpless: "Elder Sister gave me a rabbit, and I wanted to give Elder Sister a puppy. What a coincidence, no, it is too coincidental."
At this moment.
The two Samoyeds brought by Jiang Lechuan and Wen Renjing seemed to be curious about why the last one stayed in the cage, so they approached together.
Fluffy.
Like three balls of marshmallows put together.
Gu Qi took a look and had only one thought in her mind -
Truly a blissful trouble.
Truly -
Annoying.
She stayed with these three dogs for two days.
Taking in Da Pang, who was completely not afraid of strangers and sleeping soundly on her bed, and Xiao Le and Xiao Jing, who were lying in the doghouse on the ground at the end of the bed but were obviously eager to get on the bed, Gu Qi stared at the ceiling and sighed.
Gu Qi temporarily used Jiang Lechuan and Wen Renjing’s name for the two smaller Samoyeds they sent. As for the one she took over from Song Shiqing, she called it Da Pang because she wasn't good at naming and because Gu Qi hoped it would be fatter so that it would be healthier.
Wherever Gu Qi went, the three dogs followed her like her bodyguards.
They wagged their tails and were extremely happy.
Gu Qi showed a painful expression.
Okay! That's enough! Please stop exuding your cute charm!
The day before the recording.
Mu Yuan was sent to Gu Qi by his parents and he will go with her to participate in the variety show tomorrow morning.
Mu Yuan's parents were very busy because they were rushing to help another neighbor in the countryside repair the roof. They didn't even have time to enter the door, "Sorry to bother Xiaoqi. This child will be left to you to take care of. We're leaving first."
The two left in a hurry, not even having time to tell their son a word.
Gu Qi watched their backs with a complicated expression.
She looked at Mu Yuan in front of her again. He was still wearing a school uniform and his expression was obviously a little lonely.
As if bewitched.
Gu Qi looked at Mu Yuan and asked, "You must be very lonely."
Mu Yuan was stunned for a moment. A look of surprise flashed across his narrow eyes. He didn't seem to understand why Gu Qi suddenly said such a thing.
Gu Qi said: "Paternal Aunt is a very good person, but because they are good to everyone and give everything without reservation, so..."
Some words didn’t need to be said. Both understood.
Because they were good to everyone, they would ignore their only child.
When Gu Qi said this, she felt sad for Mu Yuan.
Because Jiang Lechuan later told her that Paternal Aunt had never been to Mu Yuan's parent-teacher meeting.
The care and love she enjoyed were actually divided from Mu Yuan. Paternal Aunt divided the love that ordinary people have for their son to countless people around them. And she was the one who got the most.
So Gu Qi often felt she was the one who wronged Mu Yuan the most.
Gu Qi didn't know what else to say, and finally said: "I'm sorry."
"Why is Elder Sister apologizing?"
There was no obvious emotion on the boy's face. He just indifferently questioned back. His voice seemed to be extremely calm: "Elder Sister isn't wrong. Even without Eldest Sister, the meaning of their lives is still to help others. The only difference is who they help. In their eyes, I don't need anything and can do everything to the best of my own. They will never have my existence in their eyes."
Mu Yuan rarely spoke such a long paragraph. His voice was inexplicably hoarse at the end and his head drooped, not looking at Gu Qi's current expression.
"So..."
The boy's thin body stood in front of her, his drooping eyelashes trembled slightly, and whispered: "Elder Sister, please care about me more."
