Qin Mucheng knocked on the door again when he did not hear any response, âYuanyuan, whatâs wrong?â he asked anxiously.
Ji Yuanyuan quickly stepped forward and opened the bathroom door.
Qin Mucheng heaved a sigh of relief, âWhy arenât you saying anything inside?â Ji Yuanyuan waved at Qin Mucheng, âCome here, I have something to tell you!â Qin Mucheng was too tall. He was thirty centimeters away from her.
Even if she tiptoed, she couldnât reach his ears.
Qin Mucheng bent down obediently.
Ji Yuanyuan whispered a few words into his ear and Qin Muchengâs face turned red immediately. He looked very embarrassed.
Seeing this, Ji Yuanyuan wanted to say something but Qin Mucheng took a deep breath and said, âOkay, wait a moment. Iâll be back soon.â
With that, he turned around and left.
Ji Yuanyuan was stunned for a moment, then she pursed her lips and smiled.
She returned to the bathroom and locked the door, waiting for Qin Mucheng to return.
Qin Mucheng stayed for a while longer. He only returned after about fifteen minutes.
âYuanyuan!â He knocked on the door softly.
Ji Yuanyuan hurried forward and opened the bathroom door.
Qin Mucheng appeared at the door of the bathroom. He was panting heavily and his forehead was covered in sweat. He held a large black bag in her hand and handed it to Ji Yuanyuan.
âI donât know much, so I just took a pack from each types. Try them all!â He stuffed the bag into Ji Yuanyuanâs hands and turned to leave.
The moment he turned around, Ji Yuanyuan realized that his ears were red.
Ji Yuanyuan held back her laughter and returned to the bathroom.
She could almost imagine Qin Muchengâs embarrassment when he was picking out sanitary pads in the supermarket.
Among the many sanitary pads, she chose an old brand she had often used in her previous life.
The rest were placed in the corner of the bathroom, waiting to be taken home at night.
After coming out of the bathroom, Ji Yuanyuan returned to the living room but did not see Qin Mucheng.
âWhereâs Big Brother Mucheng?â she asked curiously.
Could it be that he was too shy to see her and was hiding?
Qin Junshan raised his hand and pointed in the direction of the kitchen, âThere, over there!â
Qin Junshan was experienced. Just now, Ji Yuanyuan rushed to the bathroom and his grandson rushed out to bring back a bag of unknown items. He roughly understood what had happened.
He looked at Ji Ziâang cheerfully, âCome, letâs play a game?â
There were a few MMORPG games that Qin Junshan was quite interested in among Ji Ziâangâs game.
After spending so much time with the children, Qin Junshan felt that his mentality had become younger.
Ji Ziâang looked away from the kitchen and excitedly took out the game console.
Ji Junshan was old but not old at heart. His reaction speed was still decent.
He was quite happy playing games with Ji Ziâang.
In the kitchen, Ji Yuanyuan closed the kitchen door.
âBig Brother Mucheng, what are you doing?â
This was rare. She had never seen Qin Mucheng cook!
Not in his previous life, not in this life either.
âThe lady boss said that brown sugar and ginger should be boiled together. It will make you feel better after drinking it.â Qin Mucheng used Xiao Qiâs pot to heat up the milk. There were brown sugar and ginger slices in it.
He took a small spoon and stirred it bit by bit.
Ji Yuanyuanâs heart was warm and she deliberately joked with him, âYo, Young
Master Qin actually knows how to turn on the gas stove? Amazing!â
As she spoke, she gave Qin Mucheng a thumbs up.
Qin Mucheng glanced at her indifferently, âIâm not a fool. Is this very difficult?â
Ji Yuanyuan quickly shook her head and smiled sweetly, âThank you, Big
Brother Mucheng!â
Qin Mucheng did not say anything and just quietly looked at the brown sugar ginger tea in the pot.
When it was about time, he turned off the fire and found a small bowl. He poured all the brown sugar ginger tea in the pot into the small bowl.
âItâs a little hot. Drink it when itâs colder.â Qin Mucheng said as he washed the milk pot.
Ji Yuanyuan responded and stood at the back, looking at Qin Muchengâs side profile. For a moment, she was in a daze.
Why didnât she fight for such a good man in her previous life?
At that time, she was young and impetuous. She wanted a passionate love and was unwilling to be dull.
After experiencing so many things, she finally realized that a plain life could last long.
âBig Brother Mu Chengâ¦â Ji Yuanyuan asked.
Qin Mucheng had already finished washing the pot. He turned around and looked at Ji Yuanyuan, âHmm?â
âHave you decided which university you want to go to? Or are you going to study abroad?â
If she remembered correctly, he had gone abroad in his previous life.
He graduated from one of the top ten schools in the world with excellent results.
For a family like Qin Muchengâs, his future had probably been arranged by his family, right?
Qin Mucheng paused for a moment and said in a whisper, âMy parents want me to go abroad!â
Ji Yuanyuan paused for a moment and her expression was a little stiff, âThatâs good. Youâll definitely take over your familyâs company in the future. Itâs not bad to go out and broaden your horizons.â
Qin Mucheng nodded, âIâve done my research. If itâs quick, Iâll graduate in three years.â
Even if Qin Mucheng did not go abroad, they would only see each other a few times a year.
However, going abroad and not going abroad were two different concepts.
The thought of Qin Mucheng staying abroad for three to four years made Ji
Yuanyuan feel a little uncomfortable.
Qin Mucheng probably noticed that Ji Yuanyuanâs expression was a little stiff.
He hesitated for a moment and asked in a low voice, âDo you not want me to go abroad? If you donât want toâ¦â
He should be able to talk to his parents about it. The few universities in the country have a good business major.
However, before Qin Mucheng could finish his sentence, Ji Yuanyuan interrupted him, âHow could that be? Itâs a good thing that you have the opportunity to go abroad. I naturally support you.â
Qin Mucheng hummed in acknowledgment, his expression indifferent.
âItâs almost ready to drink. Hurry up and drink it.â After a moment of silence,
Qin Mucheng spoke.
Ji Yuanyuan went forward and sipped from the bowl.
After drinking the hot brown sugar ginger tea, although there was a thin layer of sweat, her stomach felt much better.
When they came out of the kitchen, Ji Ziâang and Qin Junshan were having fun. Ji Yuanyuan and Qin Mucheng were not in a good mood after the topic of going abroad was brought up.
One of them was reading a book on the sofa, while the other was turning on the television.
After about half an hour, the nanny, Xiao Qi, came back from outside.
She was sweating profusely and carrying a lot of vegetables in her hands. She entered and said, âAre they really selling the house next door? I saw the agent bring someone over to see the house. An old man brought a girl over.â âOf course they are selling it for real,â Qin Junshan said in a low voice.
Xiao Qi, the nanny, was speechless, âWhat a sin. If it werenât for Xiaojieâs continuous loss of money, would they have to sell the house?â
She had followed Qin Junshan for many years, so she naturally spoke more casually.
After saying that, she shook her head and went to the kitchen to prepare lunch. Ji Ziâang was curious, âAn old man with a young lady?â
