Li Xirui looked at Qin Mucheng’s back and frowned.
“Didn’t Qin Mucheng promise to have dinner with you tomorrow? How did he…” The chubby girl retracted her gaze and asked curiously.
Li Xirui, who was sitting next to Qin Mucheng, pursed his lips and shook her head in grievance.
in the underground garage, Qin Cheng got into the car and turned on the engine before saying to Ji Yuanyuan, “Our department should have a dinner party tomorrow night. This should be my last dinner party in the Marketing Department. It won’t be good if I don’t go.”
Ji Yuanyuan nodded her head indifferently, “I have a class tomorrow night. You can go. However, which department are you going to after leaving the
Marketing Department?”
Although Qin Mucheng started from the bottom, he was still the successor of the entire group. He could not possibly be like the others and rise up step by step from the bottom, right?
Qin Haowen wanted him to understand the work of the lower-level employees and establish his prestige among the employees.
As a leader, he would be managing the company in the future. He should know
all the departments.
Therefore, Qin Haowen’s plan was to rotate him between each important department for half a year to a year.
Ever since he returned to China, he has been in the Marketing Department for almost a year.
“The next department is Finance.” Qin Mucheng said as he drove out.
Ji Yuanyuan nodded, “Finance, managing money, it’s quite important.” Qin Mucheng laughed and asked about Zhang Kun’s situation, “How’s Uncle’s recovery? Do you want to tell Uncle and Auntie to start preparing for our engagement party after Big Brother’s?
“His recovery is not bad. In the past few years, he had been clamoring to be discharged, saying he had had enough of staying in the hospital. My mother plans to take him for a checkup tomorrow. If he’s doing well, he’ll be discharged tomorrow afternoon.”
“If it’s the engagement party, Uncles and Aunts will all be coming, right? We’ll do it right after Big Brother, so they won’t have to run back and forth.” Qin Mucheng took the opportunity to say, “It’s so far away. It’s not easy for them to make a trip here.”
Ji Yuanyuan hesitated for a moment, “Yes, but…
Seeing Ji Yuanyuan’s concerns, Qin Mucheng quickly expressed his stance, “If you have any requests, feel free to ask.”
“I just feel that if your family holds an engagement party, it will definitely be more grand.”
After all, the Qin family’s family background was there for all to see. Furthermore, Qin Mucheng was the only son of the Qin family. Naturally, he valued him more.
“Of course, I will definitely give you the best.”
“But if we get engaged right after Big Brother, will Sister Weiwei feel uncomfortable?”
Qin Mucheng was stunned for a moment. He did not expect that.
He was silent for a moment and said with some grievance, “Alright then, I’ll wait a few more months. But can we hold our engagement party before the new year?”
Seeing that Qin Mucheng had changed his mind, Ji Yuanyuan immediately agreed, “Of course, no problem.”
Qin Mucheng could not help but release his right hand to hold Ji Yuanyuan’s hand and gently rub it.
It was time to get off work, and the road was full of cars. Ji Yuanyuan could not help but struggle for a moment before she advised softly, “Drive properly.
Only then did Qin Mucheng retract his hand reluctantly.
Ji Yuanyuan looked ahead and suddenly said, “Why don’t I go to a driving school to get a driver’s license? It’s more convenient to go anywhere. When we go out, if you’re tired, I can replace you.”
Qin Mucheng laughed, “If you’re willing to learn, you don’t have to go to driving school.” I’ll teach you. There’s no tuition fee.”
“Sure, let’s do it this weekend. Come to my house and drive my dad’s old car.
We’ll find an empty space to practice.”
When Zhang Kun was first hospitalized, Ji Yuanyuan already had the idea of getting a driver’s license.
At that time, Second Brother was still in a fight because of his identity and rarely appeared in the hospital.
Big Brother had to go to school to help his mentor complete his research project, and he had to take care of their father in the hospital. It was inevitable there would be times when he could not take care of her.
As for her mother, she had to take care of the patients day and night. It was already hard enough.
Every time she had to drive home, she was so sleepy on the road that she fell asleep several times at red lights.
At that time, Ji Yuanyuan thought it would be great if she could drive too.
“Okay, I’ll look for you this weekend.”
The two of them went to eat hotpot and strolled around outside. It was not until past ten o’clock in the evening that Qin Mucheng sent Ji Yuanyuan home.
Ji Zi’ang was the only one at home. Li Xu was accompanying Zhang Kun at the hospital while Ji Zixuan stayed at school.
When Ji Yuanyuan returned home, Ji Zi’ang was lying on the sofa with a phone in his hand. He was talking to someone on the phone, and his face was full of smiles.
When he saw Ji Yuanyuan return, he quickly stopped smiling and began to
stutter.
Ji Yuanyuan pretended not to see him. She took a towel and pajamas and went to the bathroom.
By the time she came out of the bathroom, he had already hung up.
He sat on the sofa and watched TV absentmindedly.
The phone was in his hand, and he would take a look at it from time to time.
He was probably texting someone.
“Got a new girlfriend?” Ji Yuanyuan asked,
What happened today?
First, she met Yang Jingyi and her boyfriend, and now he found out Second Brother was also in a relationship?
What day was this?
“What new girlfriend, you don’t talk nonsense. I’m a devoted person.”
■■You got back together with that sister called Shuangshuang?” Ji Yuanyuan was a little surprised.
When Ji Zi’ang heard this, his expression froze.
It seemed that this was not the case. Ji Yuanyuan sighed.
“Since it’s not, why are you talking about being devoted?” Ji Yuanyuan shook her head and said helplessly.
Ji Zi’ang opened his mouth as if he wanted to refute Ji Yuanyuan’s words.
But when the words reached his mouth, he swallowed them.
He picked up his phone, stood up, and walked into the room, “What does it have to do with you? This is my privacy. I have the right not to tell you.”
Ji Yuanyuan shook her head helplessly as she watched Ji Zi’ang leave.
She took her phone and returned to her room.
When she turned on her phone, she realized Yang Jingyi had called her twice at around eight o’clock.
At that time, she and Qin Mucheng were in the car…
Ji Yuanyuan blushed.
Perhaps she was too engrossed in it, and her phone was in her bag, so she didn’t hear it at all.
It wasn’t even 11 p.m. yet, so Yang Jingyi definitely wasn’t asleep.
Therefore, she directly called back.
Sure enough, Yang Jingyi wasn’t asleep.
“Why did you only call me back now?” She asked.
“I had something to do tonight, so I didn’t look at my phone. What’s wrong?” Ji Yuanyuan explained guiltily.
After Ji Yuanyuan said that, it was Yang Jingyi’s turn to feel guilty.
“That… I just want to remind you not to tell anyone about what happened today. Your mother, your father, your Big Brother, and your Second Brother can’t know. They all know me. If they spill the beans…” Yang Jingyi stammered and said in a flattering tone.
-What’s wrong? What are you afraid of?” Ji Yuanyuan asked in amusement..
