The driver, Lao Liu, was a man of few words and drove the car in silence all the way to an old part of the city.
Then he stopped at the door of a courtyard, unlocked the door, and waited for Qin Jiaoxi to get out.
"Are you here?" Qin Jiaoxi asked.
Old Liu said "Hmm" and pointed to the door of the courtyard: "That's it."
Qin Jiaoxi had no choice but to open the door and get out of the car, and pushed open the door of the courtyard.
"Who is it?"
The courtyard door creaked, attracting the attention of the people inside.
Then I saw an auntie wearing a cheongsam and wearing a charming cheongsam walking from Dongyuan.
Lao Liu honked the horn, and she immediately ignored Qin Jiaoxi, picked up her skirt, crossed the threshold and walked out.
"Eh? Why are you back? Who is that girl? Where is the boss? Have you found Mr. Bo?"
Old Liu pointed at Qin Jiaoxi: "The boss asked you to arrange a room for her and get her some food. I'm going back to the company first!"
As he said that, he stepped on the accelerator and sped out of the alley.
Qin Jiaoxi: "..."
If her father's subordinates acted like this, I'm afraid they would be beaten several times.
Fortunately, the aunt was more reliable. Seeing the car running away without looking back, she turned to look at Qin Jiaoxi, her eyes suddenly filled with surprise.
"Hey, what a beautiful little girl... Hey, isn't the boss just starting to play with clones when he has nothing to do?"
Qin Jiaoxi: "..."
"Okay, okay, Aunt Kou won't tease you, don't be afraid, just a joke... Oh, by the way, what's your name?"
"Qin Jiaoxi."
"Hey, this name is so nice, Jiaoxi, Jiaoxi...Hey? Who gave you this name? What a coincidence, our uncle's name and yours can be combined into a poem!"
"The night is bright and the moon is bright." Qin Jiaoxi sighed: "Aunt Kou, I'm hungry."
Kou Zhun was stunned: "Oh, okay, okay, Auntie will go get you something to eat. What do you like to eat?"
Qin Jiaoxi was not sure what kind of food there was here, so he could only say: "Anything is fine, I can eat it!"
Kou Zhun smiled: "Okay, the little girl is not picky about food, that's great!"
Qin Jiaoxi: "..."
She could tell that this nanny was talking in a coaxing tone, and she was afraid that she really thought she was a child in her early ten years.
But Kou Zhun looked around, found a kettle and brought Qin Jiaoxi to the water tank in the yard.
"Come on, if you are bored, help Auntie water the flowers. Auntie will give you a bowl of braised beef noodles. I'm sure you'll want to eat them again!"
After saying that, he handed the kettle to Qin Jiaoxi, then turned around and locked the courtyard door before going to the kitchen with peace of mind.
As he walked, he muttered: "Listen to this name, maybe it is the child of some relative of Mr. Bo's?"
"It can't really be a clone created by the boss? Tsk tsk..."
Qin Jiaoxi looked at the kettle in her hand, and the corners of her lips twitched.
Well, I really treat her as a child.
But, just think of it as a real help.
Qin Jiaoxi tried to open the kettle, filled some water, and then looked around the flower beds...while also looking up at the tall buildings in the distance.
"It seems that Bo's Building is indeed not the tallest building..."
She murmured: "They are indeed two completely different worlds!"
I don’t know how Brother Ji Ming has adapted and gotten used to a world without high-rise buildings and cars over the years...
Although he only stayed here for a short two days, Qin Jiaoxi deeply felt the strange and isolated feeling.
Obviously this world sounds safer, with no wild beasts and no danger, and no one will come to assassinate her, but the loneliness deep in her heart that is incompatible with this world is even more terrifying than the feeling of facing danger.
She lowered her eyes and sighed softly: "If you can come back... Brother Ji Ming will come back without hesitation, right?"
Not long after, Aunt Kou came out with a bowl of steaming noodles.
The tables and chairs in the yard were all clean. She put her face on the table and turned around to call Qin Jiaoxi, but then she was stunned.
I saw the little girl standing blankly with a kettle in her hand, looking at the sky from a distance, not knowing what she was thinking.
"Jiaoxi? Come and eat noodles!"
Qin Jiaoxi came back to her senses and smelled a very attractive fragrance coming from the tip of her nose.
She couldn't help suppressing her thoughts and turned to look at the bowl of noodles from which the aroma came.
“It smells so good!”
It was simply a fragrance she had never smelled before.
"What's so delicious?"
Kou Zhun was very proud: "Braised beef noodles, this is Aunt Kou's specialty, our uncle likes it the most!"
Qin Jiaoxi couldn't stop swallowing: "I have never eaten such delicious noodles before!"
In the past two days, the people in Bo's Building gave her biscuits, bread, snacks, and instant noodles—all of which she had already eaten in Bo Jiming's space.
Bo Jiming even cooked for her several times in the staff dormitory, but they were all very simple fried rice with eggs, scrambled eggs with tomatoes and other simple side dishes.
Then there are the cakes and breads he baked himself - the uncle who has been studying abroad since he grew up can cook more Western pastries than Chinese food, so what Qin Jiaoxi can eat is also limited, not to mention he is too busy later.
Neither of them had time to laze around in space, let alone cook.
Qin Jiaoxi sat down and finished a bowl of noodles in three strokes, five divided by two, and still had more to say.
Seeing that she ate well, Kou Zhun was also very happy: "Is it delicious? Is Auntie good at cooking? But at this point, you can eat these to fill your stomach, and wait, Auntie will cook you a big meal in the evening!"
Qin Jiaoxi hesitated for a moment and asked, "Aunt Kou, apart from this, what else does brother Jiming like to eat?"
Kou Zhun raised his eyebrows: "Oh, that's a lot. As long as it's made by my aunt, there's nothing he doesn't like to eat. Braised pork trotters, braised pork elbows, braised twice-cooked pork and white-cut chicken... Tsk, that kid has been eating nothing since he was a child.
The meat is not pleasing to the eye…”
Seeing Qin Jiaoxi looking at him eagerly, Kou Zhun smiled and said: "You are only about ten years old, right? They all call him Brother Jiming... Hey, is this the seniority in the family?"
Qin Jiaoxi choked: "Uh..."
She didn't know what this seniority meant.
Fortunately, Kou Zhun didn't make things difficult for her. After all, how much seniority can a teenage girl understand?
"Ah, by the way, since you know your brother's study is over there, if you are bored and don't like playing with water, you can go to his study to find some books to read."
Qin Jiaoxi's eyes lit up: "Is that okay? Can I go to brother Ji Ming's room?"
Kou Zhun's aunt smiled: "It's just a study. He is very generous. Everyone in the study can borrow books at will. But now he rarely goes home... Ah, by the way, don't touch the cabinets in his study."
, some of the things inside may have been brought back from the research institute, I’m afraid it’s not safe!”
Qin Jiaoxi nodded wildly.
She just wanted to see where Bo Jiming lived, and what he was and was like...
