Chapter 40
The old house of the He family.
He Qingqing shook He Yan's car key with her little finger and walked into the front hall humming a tune. She found her grandma who was teasing the birthday girl and walked over.
"Grandma, I've brought my brother's car back, what are you going to do?"
After that, she put the car keys on the table.
Mrs. He temporarily diverted her loving gaze from her little great-grandson, and mysteriously said in her granddaughter's ear, "Of course it will be of great use."
He Qingqing had long been accustomed to her grandma's trouble-making temperament, so she didn't ask much. She just said, "Then who is going to pick up my brother? I just saw that the driver at home is still at home and has not gone out."
The old lady smiled meaningfully, and while teasing her five-year-old great-grandson, she said, "It's not the driver at home, nor the driver from outside. Let him run back by himself. Anyway, he has run a lot of five kilometers before."
He Qingqing rolled her eyes upward and silently expressed a few words: I believe you are a ghost...
Today is a family dinner, not extravagant, only some relatives and friends are invited. He Qingqing couldn't help but become more curious, "Grandma, just tell me!"
The old lady thought about Wen Xi's promise to pick up the person, and couldn't help but laugh again, but said nothing.
He Qingqing thought for a while, took out her mobile phone and sent Pei Mi a WeChat message—
[Sister Pei Mi, are you going to pick up my brother from the hospital soon?]
The other party responded quickly.
[Pei Mi: Doesn’t your brother have his own car?]
He Qingqing was stunned, frowning and staring at her smiling grandma.
Pei Mi sent another message—
[Pei Mi: What happened?]
…
Wen Xi was driving Nan Yunchuan's car to the First Hospital.
Her own car was still at Jiang's house, and if she had rejected Nan Yunchuan at that time, it would have been counterproductive - he would have insisted on giving it to her.
That's why she took the car keys.
Just now, she received several WeChat messages from Grandma He, telling her the time He Yan would come out and his phone number, and asking her to send her the license plate number.
Although Wen Xi felt that it was a bit redundant, he did it anyway.
The car stopped at the hospital gate, and she looked at the time. There were still five minutes left.
She didn't get out of the car or call him, she just stared at the hospital door quietly.
Somehow, she subconsciously thought that He Yan would appear at the door in seconds. It seemed that he was that kind of person.
So, she frantically set the time for five minutes on her phone and counted down second by second.
When the reminder sounded in the car, she turned to look at the door, and a familiar figure came into view.
On a sultry summer night, the cuffs of his white shirt were rolled up to his elbows, showing a sense of casualness in his composure, but his shirt and trousers were still straight and unwrinkled.
Wen Xi pressed the ringtone and felt amazing in her heart. What a magical man.
He stopped when he reached the door, raised his left hand and glanced at his watch, then turned his head and looked for it twice.
Wen Xi quickly unbuckled his seat belt and got out of the car, waving to him.
However, there was only one second left. Just before He Yan was about to look in her direction, he suddenly looked in the opposite direction.
Wen Xi was stunned, and soon he saw a woman walking towards He Yan, with a bright smile on her face, and her eyes seemed to be filled with stars.
She remembered that this energetic face was Pei Mi.
Subconsciously, Wen Xi lowered his waving arms and stood still with his legs.
She saw Pei Mi smile, take out the car key, wave it in front of his eyes twice, and then put it in his hand.
Seeing this posture, the two of them were going to go together. Wen Xi took a breath and couldn't explain what he felt in his heart.
All she knew was that after she was sure in her heart that he didn't need her, she immediately turned around and didn't want to take another look.
After a while, she smiled to herself, it was good this way, it would save her the embarrassment of causing any more embarrassment.
Thinking about it, she walked to the car lightly and opened the door to get in.
"Don't you plan to take me with you?"
The low and familiar male voice made her spine stiffen.
After a while, a shadow pressed over her side, bringing with it a light mint scent.
She looked suffocated and slowly turned to look at him.
