Chapter 2183: Books that encourage growth
He raised his head and looked at her.”Aren’t you worried?”
“Why should I be worried? It’s normal that you can’t change for the time being, because I haven’t changed this relationship either. I haven’t even figured out how he became my uncle. I don’t think my mom knows that we have such a relative. ”
Tears welled up in PEI GE’s beautiful eyes, though it was hard to tell if she was feeling emotional or regretful.
“Let’s go upstairs to see Mr. Qu. Hmm, we’ll have to slowly change this form of address in the future.”
Ji Ziming spread out his hands, his eyes filled with helplessness and his lips twitching.
“En, alright, let’s go.”
She stood up, the smile in her eyes brightening at the sudden news.
By the time the two reached qu xiujie’s room, Ji Ziming’s phone rang. It was a call from his family’s private plane. Hearing that it was an urgent call, he answered it.
“Hello, Ziming? Where are you and PEI GE?”
The one who spoke was Mother Ji, and she sounded anxious and happy.
“We’re outside. Mom, why are you back?”she asked.
The man did not receive any news about his family’s private jet being used recently. In fact, he did not expect his mother to return so soon.
“Me? I came back first. I didn’t take the family’s plane back. I bought a first-class ticket, and the driver picked me up at the airport. You and PEI GE, come back early. I’ve prepared a table full of your favorite dishes. I made it with Madam Zhang. ”
The older woman listed out the delicacies in front of her as if she was presenting a treasure. The two stood outside qu xiujie’s room for more than ten minutes.
“How is it? Can you smell the fragrance of my place even through the phone?”
Mother Ji’s eyes curved into crescents as she smiled.
“Yes, Mom. Please wait a little longer. We’ll be back soon.”
His voice was clear and melodious. If he returned now, he might be able to get home before his mother’s last dish was served.
“Alright, then I’ll stay at home and wait for you with the three babies. You have to come back soon; I noticed that there’s something wrong with ran ran.”
The older woman was slightly worried. When she got off the plane and arrived at the villa, she noticed that her daughter’s face was slightly red, but she did not feel hot. For some reason, the girl looked listless.
“I know, mom. We’ll go back now.”
With that, he hung up the phone and pulled her down the stairs.
She looked at him in confusion.”What’s wrong? What did he say on the phone? Why are you in such a hurry?”
She asked him three questions in a row, but he only responded with a cold expression.
“Let’s go home now. I think ran ran is sick.”
Ji Ziming was extremely nervous. Other than PEI GE, he had never been so worried about anyone.
“What’s wrong with ran ran?”
Her heart was in her throat as she looked at the man with a nervous expression.
“Mom said that ran ran might have caught a cold. Don’t worry; I’ve already called the doctor at home. He’ll reach home before me, so we’ll be able to make it in time if we go back now.”
Ji Ziming was also slightly worried. At this moment, compared to qu xiujie, he cared more about PEI GE and his daughter.
“What about uncle?”
Her hand, which was being held by the man, paused for a moment. At the thought of qu xiujie, who was still in the room, waiting for them to go upstairs and explain everything to him, they were just going to abandon him and run home.
“How about this, bring him along and let him stay at home today.”
Ji Ziming pondered for a moment before making a decision. Now that he knew of qu xiujie and PEI GE’s relationship, he could not treat qu xiujie as an old man who had taken a fancy to his wife.
“Alright, I’ll go get him. You drive the car and tell aunt Tian.”
With that, she pulled her hand away from his and ran upstairs to qu xiujie’s room. The man, who was sitting leisurely, took out a book about the man’s encouraging life and read it with great interest.
“Uncle,”
She mustered up her courage and did not say anything wrong.
“What’s wrong? My good niece. ”
Qu xiujie raised his head, and the sunlight from the window reflected off the wrinkles at the corner of his eyes, gradually forming a shadow of PEI GE’s eyebrows.
“Come back with me now. My daughter, ran ran, is sick.”
She asked anxiously.
“What? Ran ran is sick?”
Qu xiujie quickly stood up from the bed when he heard this, thinking that if he followed her back to the Ji family’s house now, he might be able to bring his daughter to the hospital.
“Then what are you still standing there for? hurry up and leave, really.”
Qu xiujie quickly slipped his feet into his shoes and walked past PEI GE out of the door. The latter, who was following behind him, did not notice that he could move so quickly or even look nervous.
“Uncle, slow down.”
Qu xiujie’s speed was so fast that PEI GE thought he was going to fall, but he did not. Instead, he looked down on her for being too slow.
Seeing the car parked outside the villa, he hurriedly opened the door and called out to her.”Quickly come in; we need to hurry back.”
“Alright, alright, alright.”
PEI GE nodded and got into the car. Ji Ziming, who was sitting in the driver’s seat, narrowed his eyes at his uncle’s expression through the rearview mirror. It seemed that this uncle of his was not bad.
At the very least, she was more reliable than he had imagined.
By the time the man drove the two back to the villa, the bodyguards behind them had already returned to the mountain villa. The man had ordered them to be there regardless of whether qu xiujie was there or not.
“Aiya, why are you guys only back now? I’ve been waiting anxiously.”
Seeing his car enter the courtyard, Madam Ji quickly ran out of the door and saw qu xiujie get out of the front seat. She frowned.”Why are you here?”
“Why can’t I come?”
Qu xiujie puffed out his chest and raised his head. Although he was still a member of the qu family, he was still PEI GE’s relative and uncle. Qu xiujie’s face was full of confidence and pride when he saw his mother. He simply waited for the man to step out of the driver’s seat to make his introduction.
“Are you here to pick up jingshu? She already went back before I came back. ”
