After Lin Qi left the coffee shop, he went directly back to Mao's house.
"Grandpa Mao, I'm back!"
Mr. Mao sat on the sofa, looked up at her, and asked: "Girl, how are you, have you got your man?"
"Not yet, but today's harvest is good, I am sure to win him." Lin Qi said with confidence.
"Well, it's good to be sure, but girl, don't forget what we said, otherwise I won't let you go." Mr. Mao was obviously smiling, but it was so cold that he heard it.
Lin Qi's back was covered in cold sweat and he laughed dryly: "Grandpa Mao, it's too late for me to thank you. How could I forget your great kindness? I definitely won't!"
"It's okay if you don't." Mr. Mao turned his attention back to the newspaper in his hand and read it quietly.
Lin Qi quietly stuck out her tongue and went upstairs. When she came down again, there was another figure in the living room.
Lin Qi recognized him, quickly ran over and pounced on him, "Brother Jie, you are back."
"Well, I'm back, why didn't you go out to play?" Mao Jie, the old man's only grandson, is very precious, but he has also lived up to his expectations and sat at the position of deputy cadre at a young age.
"You're out. Didn't you just come back?" Lin Qi hugged Mao Jie's arm coquettishly and asked with a smile: "Brother Jie, what's the situation of Mr. Yan's company now?"
"Hey, it turns out you are worried about your future husband's company!" Mao Jie raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile.
"No, I just want to ask about the progress. I still need some time. Is there enough time?"
"How long do you need?" Mao Jie slowly became serious.
Lin Qi counted on his fingers, then stretched out four fingers and said, "It will take at least four days."
"Okay, but what do you want to do?"
Lin Qi smiled playfully, "This... I won't tell you, haha!"
"Ghost girl, I really don't know what you see in that man..." Mao Jie shook his head helplessly.
Lin Qi pouted, "Tch, this is fate, right? How could we get together without fate? You think so! Okay, I won't tell you anymore. I'm hungry. I'm going to find something to eat."
"
After that, Lin Qi ran away in a hurry.
"Grandpa, are you still unwilling to tell me the reason?" Mao Jie was very entangled during this period and couldn't figure out why his grandfather had to deal with an ordinary company.
Mr. Mao pretended not to hear what he was asking, turned the newspaper over and continued reading.
"Grandpa, I know you heard it, just tell me, okay?"
The old man still looked like he didn't want to answer.
"Grandpa, if you don't say anything, then I will no longer help you do those things. I feel very uncomfortable doing it." Mao Jie also became slightly angry.
"Xiaojie, if you don't do it, I can find someone else to do it. It's just that the risk is higher." The old man didn't think Mao Jie's words were a threat at all, but in Mao Jie's eyes, the old man's words were a threat.
His parents had passed away in an accident more than ten years ago, leaving only his grandfather as a relative. He would definitely not let his grandfather take risks.
"grandfather……"
"Xiaojie, grandpa won't force you. If you don't want to do it, just don't do it. But I won't tell you the reason, because it will make you very sad. Grandpa can't see my grandson being sad.
So grandpa won’t tell you anything, so don’t ask.” Mr. Mao said earnestly.
And Mao Jie was even more confused.
Will he be sad after hearing this? Why is he sad? What is the reason?
"Grandpa, are you really not going to tell me?" Mao Jie asked without giving up.
Mr. Mao nodded, "Yes. Xiaojie, is it time for you to go back to work? People will talk if you don't go back after being away for such a long time."
"Okay, grandpa, I'm leaving then." Mao Jie stood up helplessly and left.
But the old man's eyes followed him until he could no longer be seen.
"Xiaojie, grandpa is getting old, and you are the only grandson left. I really don't want to see you sad!"
At this time, Lin Qi happened to come out after eating something. He vaguely heard something and asked doubtfully: "Grandpa Mao, what did you say?"
"Girl, remember, if Xiaojie asks you the reason for dealing with the Yan family, you can't tell me until you die, you know!"
Lin Qi nodded, "I know! What's wrong?"
"Xiaojie has been asking me frequently recently, as if he is suspecting something, but I won't let him know." Mr. Mao looked ahead of him with determined eyes, as if a certain scene was unfolding again.
Yan family.
"Yan, Lin Qi's brother called back and said he didn't see Coco. What should I do?" Bai Yuze put away the phone and asked.
Young Master Yan frowned, "Where has she gone?"
"I only went to the coffee shop opposite xx University for a while, and then went back to Mao's house."
"Is xx university?"
"Yes."
Young Master Yan lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, then said, "Brothers, please continue to follow me, especially in the past two days."
"Oh, I see."
xx University? Why did Lin Qi go there? Didn’t she go to the same school as Lili Keke?
Keke had no classes in the afternoon and spent the afternoon reading in the library. When it was time to have dinner, Lili suddenly called.
"Keke, are you at school?"
"Here, what's wrong?"
"Come out now. I'm in front of your school. Come with me to the night market in the evening. I haven't walked on the street for a long time and my feet are itchy, haha..."
"Lili, why do you always have itchy feet? I think it's free of charge, so your hands are itchy, haha~~" Coco teased.
Lili shrugged, the person who hurt her was Keke, she didn't care.
"Okay, no matter where she is itchy, just come out."
"Okay, just wait for a few minutes and I'll go back to the dormitory."
"Well, hurry up then."
Coco hung up the phone, changed direction, and went to the dormitory.
As soon as she opened the door, everyone looked at her in unison, finding her strange.
"What's wrong? Is there something on my face?"
Why are their eyes so similar to the way a wolf sees a little white rabbit? There is a bad feeling...
"Keke, where did you go in the afternoon? Aren't there no classes in the afternoon?" Bai was the first to ask.
"Library, I read a few books there." Coco answered truthfully.
"What book are you reading?" This time it was replaced by Lan.
Coco couldn't help but become vigilant, "There are no books, just some magazines."
Hong curled her lips disdainfully, but still asked: "Keke, you've been reading all afternoon, aren't you hungry?"
It turns out that their purpose is here.
Coco felt embarrassed and explained sheepishly: "Everyone, it's inconvenient today. My friend is here and has to go out. I'll wait until next time. I'll treat you to dinner next time, okay?"
