Chapter 219 is extremely glaring.
Chapter 219 is extremely glaring.
During the meal, Qiao Yicheng kept glancing at the glaring roses.
After looking at it many times, Xiang Nanfang noticed and tried to explain, "Isn't this my birthday? A business owner I met at work came to a meeting today, and we happened to run into each other. He insisted on giving me flowers, and there aren't any good florists around here, so he..."
Qiao Yicheng interrupted Xiang Nanfang's explanation, "Eat more! You've lost weight!"
Xiang Nanfang knew her explanation seemed somewhat far-fetched; she shouldn't have accepted the flowers! But she was a politician! She couldn't act according to her own whims and preferences; she had her own ambitions.
Qiao Yicheng realized that he might have angered Xiang Nanfang, so he quickly tried to make amends, "It's thoughtful of me to remember your birthday and give you anything!"
Xiang Nanfang looked at Qiao Yicheng and said, "I'm not interested in other people's feelings; I only want yours!"
Qiao Yicheng fell silent and ate his noodles in large mouthfuls.
Back in Yingtian Prefecture, Qiao Yicheng lay on his bed and re-examined his relationship, only to find that everything about it was unbelievable.
Even more incredibly, Wenjuan has reappeared!
On his way home from working overtime the next day, Qiao Yicheng found Wen Ju'an lying on the roadside. She must have drunk too much, as she reeked of alcohol. Two thugs who wanted to join in the fun were scared away by Qiao Yicheng taking out his phone.
Those who own cell phones are people with status and connections! They're not to be trifled with.
Qiao Yicheng carried Wen Ju'an back to his home and took care of her for the night. Wen Ju'an wasn't dead asleep; she kept talking nonsense.
"he died!"
"It's all your fault!"
"I'll pay for your medical treatment! Just use her money!"
It was intermittent, and Qiao Yicheng didn't understand what it meant.
The next day, Wen Ju'an woke up.
"Where am I? Brother Yicheng?"
Wen Ju'an was a little confused and unsure whether to confirm.
Qiao Yicheng handed Wen Ju'an a glass of water. "It's me!"
After a long silence, Qiao Yicheng asked, "How have you been lately?"
This phrase is comparable to "long time no see".
Wen Ju'an, however, remained expressionless. "It's not good! My father is dead! He had colon cancer that year, which later spread, rotting his intestines and causing him to vomit all his blood."
"sorry!"
"It's alright, it's all in the past."
Qiao Yicheng asked, "Where do you live now?" He wanted to take Wen Ju'an back! But then he remembered that he was already married, and it wouldn't be appropriate to leave Wen Ju'an at home overnight.
Wen Ju'an gave her a location, and Qiao Yicheng took her there. When they arrived, they found out that she was living in the house where her father used to live.
The house was a mess, with unwashed clothes and dishes scattered everywhere.
Just as he was about to leave, Qiao Yicheng noticed that something was wrong with Wen Ju'an. He touched his forehead and found that he had a high fever and was burning hot!
Qiao Yicheng knew that you shouldn't take medicine after drinking, so he didn't dare to buy any random medicine. He called Zhang Jianjun and said, "I have a friend who drank last night and has caught a cold and fever. I want to know what medicine she can take!"
"You have a friend! Oh, just take some Dragon's Roar Grass Dispersible Tablets!"
"Okay!" With a click, Qiao Yicheng hung up the phone.
Zhang Jianjun stared into thought as he looked at the phone after it was disconnected.
Qiao Yicheng bought the medicine and gave it to Wen Ju'an, but Wen Ju'an started talking nonsense again.
Qiao Yicheng was annoyed that he hadn't noticed Wen Ju'an's unusual behavior last night.
This time, Wen Ju'an's ramblings were a bit frightening; she was talking to her father!
Qiao Yicheng was a materialist, but this time he was so frightened by Wen Ju'an that he broke out in a cold sweat.
Fortunately, Wen Ju'an was much better in the afternoon, and Qiao Yicheng breathed a sigh of relief.
Wen Ju'an said to Qiao Yicheng, "You can go back now, I'm fine!"
Qiao Yicheng left after saying, "Call me if you need anything."
Leaving the old house, Qiao Yicheng reflected on his relationship with Wen Ju'an, finding the coincidences too unbelievable. Could this be what "love is a miracle" means?
Qiao Yicheng himself was unsure of his true feelings for Wen Ju'an. He felt he didn't understand love.
Qiao Simei, however, felt that she knew a lot.
Since Zhang Jianjun got married, she frequently visited the villa, sometimes even staying there, and insisted on sharing a room with Qiao Sanli. Her reason was that Qiao Sanli was pregnant and couldn't manage the company, so if she were to manage it, she would need to consult Qiao Sanli about management experience in the evenings. The reason was irrefutable, and Qiao Sanli couldn't refuse.
Chang Xingyu was very unhappy because every time Qiao Simei came, she was the only one accompanying Zhang Jianjun, which was a bit scary.
There are some things you want to suppress but just can't help, which is really awkward.
“Jianjun, it’s not a good idea for Simei to stay here like this. I heard that Aunt Wei wants to move out. Why don’t we find them another place to live?”
Zhang Jianjun stroked the smooth back of the house. “Since Wei…Mom wants to move out, why don’t we move our mother out with her? They originally said they wanted to live in the old house, so I found two caregivers to take care of them, which was fine. But now it’s not really appropriate for just our mother to stay. Why don’t we find a bigger house? A while ago, Boss Qian said he could help us designate a small plot of land to build a small estate. I think we should do that.”
Zhang Jianjun was referring to the large courtyard mansion that Tan Zongming modeled after in the TV series "Ode to Joy," where everything was enclosed and belonged to the family. It was spacious enough and had ample space!
Seeing that Zhang Jianjun had a plan, Chang Xingyu stopped talking.
Just four months after their marriage, Qiao Sanli discovered she was pregnant.
Zhang Jianjun noticed that Qiao Sanli didn't have any morning sickness. He felt that Qiao Sanli was different, so he went for a checkup and found out that she was indeed pregnant.
Wu Fenglan came to the villa again. She had already spent ten months with Chang Xingyu last time, and she couldn't show favoritism! The two of them were prone to conflict, so she had to be very careful!
Thinking of this, Wu Fenglan rolled her eyes at Zhang Jianjun again. It's all Zhang Jianjun's fault! Her dream of being a wicked mother-in-law is shattered!
Since Zhang Jianjun opened his own hospital, he has much more free time. He comes back to see Qiao Sanli every day.
When Qiao Sanli was on the phone with Xiang Nanfang, she told him that she was pregnant. Xiang Nanfang was very happy and said that he happened to have a vacation and would come back to see Qiao Sanli, but he didn't want to tell Qiao Yicheng and wanted to give him a surprise.
Instead of a surprise, I got a fright.
Besides Qiao Yicheng, there is also Wen Ju'an in the family!
Xiang Nanfang's face immediately turned cold, even though the two of them hadn't done anything, they were just sitting together eating.
No matter how career-driven or masculine her personality, she's still a woman! And no woman is immune to overthinking!
"Nanfang, you're back! Why didn't you tell me beforehand?" Qiao Yicheng put down his chopsticks and stood up as if nothing had happened, asking Xiang Nanfang.
Xiang Nanfang suppressed his thoughts and said, "Yicheng, I suddenly had some time and wanted to come back and give you a surprise!"
While speaking, he kept criticizing Wen Ju'an. The last time he criticized someone like that was Qiao Yicheng. It's true that fortunes change every thirty years!
Qiao Yicheng knew what Xiang Nanfang was thinking, and pointed to Wen Ju'an, "This is Wen Ju'an, the one I told you about before! He was sick a few days ago, and I helped him out a bit. He came here today specifically to thank me!"
Xiang Nanfang nodded. "So you're Wen Ju'an? It's a pleasure to meet you! I'm Xiang Nanfang, Qiao Yicheng's wife!"
Xiang Nanfang extended her hand, and Wen Ju'an, without any hesitation or fear, shook it generously. "I am Wen Ju'an, Sister Xiang looks very beautiful!"
"Thank you!"
"I'll be going now, Brother Yicheng, Sister Xiang, goodbye!" With a wave of his hand, Wen Ju'an left Qiao Yicheng's house.
"Tell me, Yicheng, are you trying to get revenge on me because of what happened last time?" Xiang Nanfang's expression was unfriendly.
Qiao Yicheng felt embarrassed. "I already said there was nothing false about it! If you don't believe me, then forget it!"
