025：
Jiang Mian went to Qi Yanshu's house, moved some ingredients from his refrigerator, and said to Qi Yanshu: "Uncle Qi, please wait, I will bring it to you after I prepare it."
Qi Yanshu: "..."
The door closed gently and Jiang Mian had left.
Qi Yanshu stood in the living room. Because of Jiang Mian's arrival, the room that had just gained some popularity suddenly became quiet again. A few seconds later, he came to the bathroom and took off the white cloth in front of him.
His face was reflected in the smooth mirror. After two months of treatment, his face was no longer sickly white.
The long eyelashes trembled slightly, and a gap seemed to open at the end of the eyes. After a moment, they closed slumped again.
Or not.
Qi Yanshu raised his hand, lightly scratched his eyelids with his fingertips, then took the white cloth as usual and put it again in front of his eyes.
Jiang Mian was busy in the kitchen. She moved very quickly. She prepared three dishes and one soup in half an hour. She put them on plates and was about to carry them to the opposite side. When her cell phone rang, she picked it up and saw that it was her wealthy father calling.
Jiang Mian was a little surprised that the wealthy father was still in the United States and had not returned. According to the time difference between the two sides, it was early morning in the United States, so the wealthy father should be resting. Is there something urgent about calling him at this time
Worried in her heart, she quickly answered the phone, her voice a little worried: "Dad."
"Mianmian, guess where dad is now!"
Jiang Mian breathed a sigh of relief. Being able to make such an opening statement meant that her wealthy father was fine. She followed his father's words and said, "Where are you?"
Han Xu laughed: "Open the door."
At the same time, the elevator dinged and opened, and Han Xu, dressed in a haute couture suit, walked out of the elevator surrounded by two bodyguards. His face looked tired and there were faint red bloodshot eyes.
Han Xu didn't know about Jiang Mian's filming. He returned to the United States. Due to the time difference and being busy dealing with emergencies after returning, he hardly had time to contact Jiang Mian.
After finally taking care of things in the United States, the first thing I did when I got back was, of course, to visit my precious daughter.
In order to surprise Jiang Mian, he didn't tell Jiang Mian about his return in advance. He rushed over as soon as he got off the plane. He just wanted to see his baby daughter's beautiful little face at the first sight after returning to China.
He stood at the door and glanced at the door opposite - the Qi family is really shameless.
Ever since he found out that Qi Yanshu lived across from Jiang Mian, Han Xu had been trying to find a way to get Qi Yanshu to move out. He had done so several times in secret, but had failed, so he had to give up.
—This was done without telling Jiang Mian.
Jiang Mian hung up the phone and was stunned for two seconds. Then she realized what she was doing and quickly took off her apron and quickly opened the door.
"Dad." Facing the wealthy father, Jiang Mian gave him a sweet smile, "Why didn't you tell me in advance when you were coming back?"
When he saw the rich father's red eyes, he frowned.
"Give my precious daughter a surprise." Han Xu walked in. Two bodyguards stood at the door, one on the left and one on the right, like two door gods.
"Very good, not thin." Han Xu looked at Jiang Mian carefully and felt that his baby girl was more beautiful and plump than before he left, so he nodded with satisfaction.
The tip of his nose moved, and then he saw three dishes and one soup on the dining table. Han Xu, who had been on the road, had hardly eaten anything. When he smelled the aroma, his stomach suddenly rumbled.
"Just in time, daddy is also hungry and wants to eat with you."
The father and daughter were sitting on the dining chairs. Jiang Mian silently said sorry to Qi Yanshu in her heart. Her wealthy father rushed over to see her as soon as he got off the plane. He looked tired and still hungry. Of course, she had to stay close to her biological father.
Quickly serving the rice to his biological father, Han Xu took two bites and his eyes lit up: "Mama Liu's cooking is getting better and better."
Jiang Mian snorted lightly.
"What's wrong?" The wealthy father immediately put down his chopsticks and looked at his precious daughter nervously.
Jiang Mian: "Dad, I made this."
I thought I would get a burst of praise from my wealthy father, but Han Xu's expression suddenly changed. He put down the bowl with a cold look on his face: "Mianmian, tell Dad, are Liu Lihua's hands and feet unclean?"
—Mother Liu’s full name is Liu Lihua.
Jiang Mian was confused: "Huh?"
"Dad will fire her right away and find a new one for you." Han Xu held Jiang Mian's hand, and he felt angry at the thought of his precious daughter actually cooking by herself.
Is cooking something like this something he should do with the treasure he holds in his hand
Maybe it's that Liu Lihua. Seeing that her daughter is sensible during this period, she starts to show her flaws and lets her daughter do what she should do instead? !
Immediately he took out his phone angrily, Jiang Mian came to his senses, and snatched his phone away dumbfounded: "Dad, you misunderstood."
She felt warm in her heart. She was just cooking. The wealthy father thought of so much. He felt sorry for her and was afraid that she would be wronged.
She didn't know how to react, so she could only hold Han Xu's arm: "Usually when Liu's mother was cooking, I would occasionally look around and learn how to cook. Sometimes I would make some food by myself, which gave me a sense of accomplishment. .”
"Dad, am I amazing? I learned how to cook just by looking at it."
Han Xu's tense body slowly relaxed: "Really?"
Jiang Mian: "Of course it's true."
Han Xu suddenly became happy. As long as his daughter was not wronged, it would be fine. Looking at the food on the table, he felt that his precious daughter was good everywhere.
"It's okay to do it occasionally, but you can't do it by yourself all the time." He carefully inspected Jiang Mian's hands, "otherwise the fingers will become rough and they won't be beautiful."
Jiang Mian nodded obediently.
"Mianmian." The wealthy father coughed lightly and asked casually, "Do the other fathers know that you can cook?"
Jiang Mian held back his smile.
The implicit meaning of the rich dad's words was to ask if the other dads had eaten the food she cooked.
Ever since I was a child, I have never stopped having questions like this.
For example, when Jiang Mian was a child, if Jiang Mian shared his food with his four fathers, each father would ask if the other fathers had received a share. If Jiang Mian was the first to receive a share, he could show off for days.
In short, there are endless ways for four fathers to compete for their daughters.
Master Tian has already eaten the food cooked by Jiang Mian, but—
Jiang Mian shook his head and lowered his voice deliberately, as if the father and daughter were sharing some secret: "You are the only one who knows now, dad."
The smile on Han Xu's lips couldn't help but widen, and then he rearranged the dishes like a treasure, took pictures with his mobile phone, and took a photo of the father and daughter, and finished the dishes with his last breath.
The happiest thing in the world is to return home hungry to meet your daughter, and then fill your stomach with food cooked by your precious daughter~
Han Xu had not slept for more than 20 hours in a row, but after eating, he still managed to gather energy to talk to Jiang Mian.
"Dad, let me rub your shoulders for you." Without waiting for the wealthy father to refuse, Jiang Mian stood behind Han Xu, pinched the acupuncture points on his shoulders for him, and injected spiritual power into his body.
Han Xu was worried about tiring his baby daughter's hands and wanted to refuse, but his eyelids were twitching up and down. In less than a minute, he fell asleep leaning on the back of the sofa.
Jiang Mian didn't stop, and continued to rub Han Xu's hand. He didn't stop until he used his weak spiritual power to penetrate the rich father's body.
After wiping the sweat on his forehead and looking at his wealthy father who was sleeping peacefully, Jiang Mian smiled.
He took off Han Xu's shoes and placed him on the sofa. Then he took a blanket and covered him. Jiang Mian opened the door and asked the two bodyguards to find a place to sleep on their own. There was no need to stay here.
Quietly closing the door, Jiang Mian rang the doorbell opposite. Qi Yanshu quickly opened the door. Jiang Mian touched his nose, feeling a little guilty, and said honestly: "Uncle Qi, your food is gone."
Eaten up by my dad.
Taking other people's ingredients, but after they were cooked, they all ended up in the stomach of the wealthy father. Jiang Mian saw that the takeaway food Qi Yanshu had brought indoors had not been opened. In other words, the other party had been waiting for her to cook.
However, she paid attention to her wealthy father and did not say anything to him. The more she thought about it, the more embarrassed she became. She said: "I'm sorry... It's not too late now. Well, should I invite you out to eat? Just take it as an apology."
Qi Yanshu: "Nothing, I'm not hungry."
The more considerate he was, the more embarrassed Jiang Mian became. He simply said: "That's it, I'm going to change clothes!"
Without waiting for Qi Yanshu to refuse, she went back to the house to change clothes. When she left, she glanced at her wealthy father, who was sleeping soundly.
Worried that the wealthy father would wake up in the middle of the trip, Jiang Mian wrote a note and posted it on the sofa, so that the wealthy father could see it when he opened his eyes.
—
Jiang Mian took Qi Yanshu to a Western restaurant near the community. In order to express her apology, she ordered a full table, regardless of whether they could finish the meal.
While waiting for the food to be served, Jiang Mian's cell phone rang - Master Tian.
There was nothing she could do about it. She didn't have much, but she had more than her biological father. Jiang Mian answered the phone with a crooked look on her face.
"Mianmian, have you gone home? I'll bring you a dress." Tianshi's father wanted to let his precious daughter wear the beautiful dress he bought.
Since Qin Jingrun canceled his trip to the United States, Zuo Xingping kept pestering him for two more days. After confirming that Qin Jingrun really would not go to the United States, he quietly left and continued his daily life as a poor Taoist priest.
"Okay." Qi Yanshu knew that Zuo Xingping was her father, and the two were junior brothers. There was nothing to hide in front of Qi Yanshu, "Dad, have you eaten?"
Zuo Xingping hesitated and was about to lie - he picked up five yuan on the road today, and then all his money was stolen, leaving him with no money to eat.
Jiang Mian understood and felt a little distressed, but he didn't expose it. He just said, "Dad, I haven't eaten yet. Can you come over and eat with me?"
Suddenly she remembered Qi Yanshu opposite her. She was trying to apologize to Qi Yanshu for this meal. She quickly covered the receiver and said, "Uncle Qi..."
Before she finished speaking, Qi Yanshu knew what she was going to say: "I haven't seen my senior brother for a long time."
One sentence was enough, and Jiang Mian felt relieved.
When Master Tian heard his daughter's soft words that she hadn't eaten yet, he immediately agreed: "Mianmian, I'll be here right away. You wait for me."
Jiang Mian reported the address, and Zuo Xingping found a shared bicycle. When there was no one around, he took out a small paper man, flicked his fingertips, and the paper man suddenly "alive", stretched his little body, and got himself into it. Inside the lock of a shared bicycle.
After a while, the car unlocked with a beep.
The little paper figure squeezed out and fell to the ground, quickly turning into fine ash.
Zuo Xingping rode a shared bicycle and rushed toward his baby daughter at lightning speed.
More than ten minutes later, Zuo Xingping arrived at his destination—not far from the community when he called Jiang Mian.
After locking the car, Zuo Xingping first looked up at the name of the restaurant, confirmed that it was the address Jiang Mian reported to him, pulled up his robe, and strode inside.
Then, he was stopped by the doorman.
Zuo Xingping: "..."
"Mianmian, I was stopped." In desperation, Zuo Xingping had no choice but to call Jiang Mian.
When Jiang Mian went downstairs, he saw Zuo Xingping standing at the door. He said to the doorman seriously: "My daughter is inside."
Doorman: “…”
The doorman smiled and politely ignored him.
People passing by looked at him with all kinds of eyes.
Seeing Jiang Mian, Master Tian's eyes lit up and he said very proudly, "That's my daughter."
The doorman subconsciously turned around and saw Jiang Mian coming out.
He had an impression of Jiang Mian. He was so beautiful. Not long ago, he came in with an outstanding-looking man whose eyes were covered with white cloth.
Such a beautiful girl has such a... father
Jiang Mian came over, took Tianshi's father's hand, and smiled at the doorman: "This is my father."
She didn't know why, but she suddenly became serious. She covered the lower half of her face, only showing her eyes: "Look, my eyes and mine are exactly the same."
The doorman looked at her, then at Zuo Xingping, who had curly hair and a big beard. After a while, he awkwardly apologized to Zuo Xingping.
"Thank you." Jiang Mian pulled Zuo Xingping upstairs.
Zuo Xingping followed his precious daughter upstairs happily until he saw Qi Yanshu sitting on the chair, and the smile on his face suddenly froze.
"Mianmian, why is he here?!" Master Tian's father whispered in Jiang Mian's ear, "Didn't I tell you to have less contact with him!"
"It's a long story." Jiang Mian whispered back to him, "I accidentally hurt Uncle Qi's hand, so I invited him to dinner to apologize."
Master Tian frowned, and when he was about to speak, Qi Yanshu turned his head and said, "Senior Brother Wuzhen."
"Junior Brother Liaochen." Zuo Xingping walked over and glanced at his eyes, "Your eyes... do you want me to take a look at them for you?"
"It's useless, senior brother, don't worry about it." Qi Yanshu glanced in Jiang Mian's direction, and Zuo Xingping noticed that it was hard to say anything else.
Jiang Mian: "?"
Master Tian seemed to know what was going on with Qi Yanshu's eyes.
Zuo Xingping also carried a bag in his hand, which contained the dress he bought for Jiang Mian. However, since Qi Yanshu was there, he had to put the bag aside temporarily and let his daughter see it when he got back.
Zuo Xingping originally wanted to ask Qi Yan Shushu about how Jiang Mian hurt him, but Jiang Mian fed him the whole time, and he couldn't bear to reject his precious daughter, so he had to immerse himself in the food.
Jiang Mian was addicted to feeding, and by the way, he put a lot of it into Qi Yan's book bowl: "Uncle Qi, this is delicious, you can try it."
Zuo Xingping discovered that what his daughter put in Qi Yan's book was a fat, white pastry. He didn't know its name, but that didn't stop him from quickly destroying the plate of pastries.
Every time Jiang Mian gave Qi Yan a bookfold, Tianshi's father would be wiped out. Jiang Mian noticed that he stopped feeding Qi Yan = =
The three of them ate for more than an hour. After paying the bill, the three of them returned to the community along the same route.
But not far from the restaurant, a car rolled over and stopped next to Qi Yanshu: "Sir, I want to see you."
Before Qi Yanshu could say anything, Zuo Xingping said impatiently: "Junior Brother Luochen, go quickly."
Qi Yanshu: "..."
After Qi Yanshu left, Zuo Xingping hurriedly said to Jiang Mian, "Mianmian, it's better not to have any contact with Chen Chen in the future. He keeps pestering you, and he must be unkind."
Jiang Mian: "..."
She decided to change the subject: "Dad, do you know what's wrong with Uncle Qi's eyes?"
Zuo Xingping hesitated for a moment: "It seems that he saw something he shouldn't have seen. He was cursed and saved his life by accident. I don't know the details."
Jiang Mian: "In other words, if Uncle Qi's eyes want to see, the curse must be lifted?"
"That's probably what it means." Zuo Xingping nodded, "I don't know what the curse is now, I can only solve it by myself."
"Mianmian, why do you care so much about him?" Master Tian's tone was sour.
Jiang Mian held his arm: "Because Uncle Qi is dad's junior brother."
After a few words to comfort Tianshi's father, the father and daughter went home happily. When they opened the door, Zuo Xingping immediately found Han Xu lying on the sofa: "Why is he here?"
Jiang Mian explained, Zuo Xingping said oh, no longer paying attention to Han Xu on the sofa, handed the bag to Jiang Mian like a treasure, and said expectantly: "Mianmian, see if you like it."
Jiang Mian took it and said, "I'll show it to you instead."
Tianshi dad nodded like a chicken pecking at rice. Jiang Mian entered the bedroom with the bag. Two skirts, one pink and one light blue, were neatly folded.
The price on the tag was 21,000 in pink and 15,000 in light blue. Jiang Mian was startled - Master Tian was afraid that he would spend all the tens of thousands of dollars he received on these two skirts.
When she changed her dress and walked out of the bedroom, she found that the wealthy father had woken up at some point, and Tianshi's father was sitting opposite him. The two of them stared at each other, and the wealthy father's anger level was rising at a speed that was visible to the naked eye.
Han Xu had two pieces of paper stuffed in his nose.
Jiang Mian:
Han Xu couldn't wait to step forward and smash this magic stick. He was sleeping well and was still dreaming. He dreamed of his precious daughter when she was a child. Suddenly, he couldn't breathe. When he opened his eyes, he saw a bearded man - Zuo Xingping thrusting into his nose. There were two wads of paper stuffed inside.
"dad?"
The two dads immediately turned their heads. Zuo Xingping's eyes lit up and he stopped talking to Han Xu: "I knew Mianmian would look beautiful in it."
"Did you buy it?" Han Xu understood instantly and smiled coldly, "It's so ugly."
Afraid that his precious daughter would misunderstand, he quickly explained: "Dad said this dress is ugly, Mianmian. You can't wear this kind of dress from a street stall. Daddy will buy you a better one."
"What kind of stall goods? I bought them from a famous brand store." Tianshi's father was angry.
Han Xu sneered: "Can you tell the difference between a famous brand and a famous brand?!"
Zuo Xingping: "..."
Seeing that the two of them were about to fight, Jiang Mian hurriedly walked over, holding each other in his arms, and said with a sweet smile: "Dad, do you want to stay with me tonight?"
