“That’s not fair,” Jun Yexuan continued to rub his head into her shoulder, “By then, his son gets to go to the store and buy soy sauce. Where’s my dignity as his older brother?”
Qiao Qing paused, “Then, what do you want?”
Jun Yexuan, “Once you make the medicine and cure my father-in-law, you give yourself to me. How about that?”
Qiao Qing pursed her lips. Before she could answer, she heard footsteps approach.
“You better first get your father’s-in-law to agree then get the Qi family to accept you.”
Jun Yexuan, “...”
Was there anyone in this world who had it harder than him?!
Qi Yusen, “Don’t disturb her!”
Jun Yexuan, “...”
Jun Yexuan felt like he was a soft eggplant and had to do whatever his brother-in-law asked.
Especially now that Mu Jinghang the [email protected] moved back in, he himself felt worse.
Qiao Qing worked on making medicine until around 11 pm. When she went back to the living room, she found everyone there. Surprised, she asked, “Why aren’t any of you sleeping?”
Mu Jinghang pressed onto his stomach, “Not only are we not sleeping, but we also haven’t even eaten. Brother Qi said until you come out, none of us are allowed to eat. Qingqing, my front chest is now touching my back.”
Qi Yusen glared at him and then came up to Qiao Qing, “Hungry? Let’s go eat in the dining room.”
He then looked over to Ning Ye, “Ask the maids to bring out the food.”
Ning Ye, “Yes.”
Jun Yexuan walked alongside Qiao Qing, “You have made the medicine?”
Qiao Qing nodded.
Qi Yeli chimed in as well, Qingqing, when are you performing surgery on uncle?”
Mu Jinghang heard this and caught up after them. Curious, he asked, “What medicine? What uncle? What surgery?”
Qi Yunyan glared at him, “Mind your own business.”
Mu Jinghang, “...”
So nobody here liked him?
Qiao Qing gave Qi Yusen a look, “Tomorrow, I will ask for a few days off at school. Then, I will return to the City of Brisk. I will have him take the medicine for two weeks before performing the surgery.”
Qi Yusen was silent for a while, “I will go back with you. Then, I will get people to move uncle and aunt over here.”
Qiao Qing nodded, “Okay.”
Jun Yexuan, “I will go as well.”
Qi Yuyang and Qi Yeli shouted in unison, “I’m going too!”
“Nonsense!” Qi Yusen shouted, “It’s almost our grandparents’ birthday. If you all leave, what happens if something goes wrong?”
Qi Yuyang and Qi Yeli instantly shut up.
Mu Jinghang thought of something and walked up to Qiao Qing. Anxious, he asked, “Wait, Qingqing, you’re Sang Wu’s good friend. Can you help me contact her?!”
Qi Yuyang rolled his eyes, “You sure have long arms!”
Qiao Qing was startled by his words but she was not surprised to hear what he had said.
“You think she would let me know her whereabouts if she wants to hide from you?”
Mu Jinghang, “...”
Even when everyone sat down at the dining table, Mu Jinghang still refused to give up.
“Qingqing, try to contact her, please. I’m begging you.”
Qiao Qing took out her cell and dialed Sang Wu’s number right in front of him.
A gentle and kind voice left the cell, “I’m sorry, the number you have dialed does not exist.”
Mu Jinghang, “...”
Everyone at the scene laughed.
Mu Jinghang now looked bitter, “You both belong to that IQ club. You have no other way of contacting her?”
Qiao Qing said emotionlessly, “No.”
Mu Jinghang, “...”
Qi Yusen unpleasantly stared at him, “Don’t disturb Qingqing when she eats.”
Mu Jinghang, “...”
