Chapter 370 - 370: Why Aren’t You Saying Anything
Li Xu’s heart ached. She thought that she couldn’t just focus on making money in the future. When she had time, she must bring the children out to see the world.
They followed Gong Wenbai’s car and drove all the way into a courtyard.
This small villa was located in the bustling area of B City, but it looked very simple.
Only after entering the courtyard did he realize that there was a whole new world inside.
The yard was huge, with rockery, potted plants, and a small pond …
Ji Zi’ang was simply amazed and could only sigh. “Oh my God…”
Standing in such a courtyard, the whole family was a little reserved.
Only Ji Yuanyuan.
This was the place where she had lived for three years in her previous life. As soon as she entered, she felt it was extremely familiar.
She had once raised a fish that she had bought from the market in this pond, but that fish had eaten all the expensive ornamental fish in the pond.
She had once accidentally knocked her foot on this fake mountain.
And this tree, when she had just married over, she had even learned from the television and carved her and Qin Mucheng’s names on the trunk.
After that, she gave up on Qin Mucheng and dug out the words on the tree trunk with a knife in a fit of anger.
Later on, when she left the villa, the tree was already dead. The leaves had all turned yellow, but they were not cleaned.
Recalling the past, Ji Yuanyuan’s eyes turned red.
Li Xu and Zhang Kun couldn’t come to her house empty-handed, so they went to the department store to buy some gifts. They were taking them out of the trunk.
Qin Mucheng’s family of three heard the sound of the car and came out to welcome them.
Qin Mucheng ran in front. She reached out and held Ji Yuanyuan’s hand. He smiled happily but did not say anything.
Ji Zi’ang rushed up to him. “Brother Mucheng, your house is so big. Can you take me around?”
Qin Mucheng nodded his head shyly.
“Brother Mucheng, the fish in the pond are so beautiful. What are they called?” Ji Zi’ang asked again.
This time, Qin Mucheng looked at Cheng Shuqin.
Cheng Shuqin knew what her son was thinking and explained to Ji Zi’ang with a smile, “This fish is called the Angelfish.”
Ji Zi’ang looked at Qin Mucheng suspiciously. “Brother Mucheng, why aren’t you saying anything?”
Cheng Shuqin and Qin Haowen hurried forward and took the things from Zhang Kun and Li Xu.
Cheng Shuqin held Li Xu’s hand. “If you’re here, then come. Why did you bring these things? Why are you still treating us like outsiders?”
“I just casually bought some,” Li Xu replied.
Cheng Shuqin looked at the children. “Hurry up and enter the house. You must be tired from the journey.”
Ji Zi’ang saw that Qin Mucheng was still not speaking and looked at Cheng Shuqin suspiciously. “Aunt Cheng, why isn’t Brother Mucheng saying anything?”
Hearing this, Cheng Shuqin burst out laughing.
Ji Yuanyuan looked at Qin Mucheng suspiciously. He shook her hand and asked in a low voice, “What’s wrong with you?”
Indeed, ever since they came in, Qin Mucheng had not said a single word.
“Alright, don’t be so prideful. Every boy has this stage, you can’t just keep silent, right?” Cheng Shuqin went forward and patted Qin Muchengs head to comfort him.
Qin Mucheng blinked his eyes and looked up at Cheng Shuqin. He seemed to have made an important decision.
After a moment, he took a deep breath, then looked at Ji Yuanyuan and said, “Come in with me!”
His voice was a little hoarse, but everyone present immediately reacted.
It turned out that Qin Mucheng had welcomed his voice-changing period!
They knew that Qin Mucheng minded this matter. After everyone reacted, they did not pay attention to this matter.
The adults began to chat again as they walked into the villa.
A few children gathered together and discussed their plans for the night.
Ji Zi’ang was shocked by the decorations inside the villa.
Behind them, he muttered to Ji Zixuan, “It’s so beautiful. It’s like a castle in a TV series.”
The beautiful vases, elegant calligraphy and paintings, and the bright lights didn’t show the family’s taste.
Although Ji Zixuan was also a little surprised, he pretended to be calm on the surface and even tugged at the corner of Ji Zi’ang’s clothes to remind him.
“I’ve prepared rooms for you,” Cheng Shuqin said. “Zixuan and Zi’ang will share a room. There should be no problem, right?”
“Auntie, we’re fine with it. I’ve always stayed with Big Brother at home.” Ji Zi’ang immediately expressed his opinion.
Cheng Shuqin led a few people upstairs. “You must be tired from the journey. Go upstairs and rest for a while. After dinner, I’ll accompany you for a walk.”
“I still have some things to do at the company,” Qin Haowen said. “I’ll get Shuqin to accompany you today.”
Knowing that Qin Haowen was in charge of a big company, Zhang Kun quickly said, “It’s okay, it’s okay. You guys do what you need to do. I and All Xu going to talk to Miaomiao tonight. She can just take us out to play.”
Cheng Shuqin and Qin Haowen looked at each other, thinking that with her around, the family would not be able to let go.
After a few seconds of hesitation, he said, “Since you have already made arrangements, that’s fine!”
When they reached the second floor, Cheng Shuqin led them to the left.
“You and your wife can stay in the room near the stairs. Zi’ang and Zi Xuan can stay in the middle room. Yuanyuan, you can stay in the innermost room.”
Cheng Shuqin looked at Ji Yuanyuan and said, “That room has the most windows and the air is good. And you can see the pond below from the window. Mucheng left it especially for you.”
Ji Yuanyuan looked at the room and was momentarily stunned. She raised her head and looked at Cheng Shuqin. “Thank you, Uncle and Aunty, thank you, Brother Mucheng!”
Qin Mucheng shook his head. He held her hand and led her to the door of the last room.
He opened the door and said in a low voice, “You should rest for a while. I’ll come up and call you when the food is ready!”
As he spoke, he pushed Ji Yuanyuan into the room and even closed the door for her.
Cheng Shuqin, Qin Haowen, and Zhang Kun exchanged a few words before going downstairs.
She knew that they had been on the road for more than five hours and must be tired. They probably wanted to lie in bed for a while.
Hence, after they went downstairs, Qin Haowen instructed the nanny, “Be gentle with your movements. Don’t disturb their rest if there’s nothing important.”
“Yes, sir!” the nanny replied.
In the innermost room, Ji Yuanyuan looked at the furnishings in the room and was in a daze for a moment.
In her previous life, they had already started to sleep in separate rooms when they were about to get a divorce.
At that time, Qin Mucheng had given her this room.
She had stayed in this room for a few months. After the divorce, she left without looking back.
At that time, she had thought Qin Mucheng had let her stay in this room because it was the furthest away from his.
He didn’t want to see her, so he wanted to get as far away as possible.
Only now did he know that this room was the best room in Qin Mucheng’s heart.
It turned out that in her past life, Qin Mucheng had always been thinking for her!
