"...you changed its name again?" Xue Zimu asked in surprise.

Qi Yan said with a dark face, "I haven't taken it yet."

"Then why..." Before Xue Zimu finished speaking, Qi Yan said in a deep voice: "It was taken by my mother, and I have already refused to accept it!" Then he took the kitten from Xue Zimu's arms, and said to it: "You're not called Xiaobai. If someone calls you like that in the future, don't pay attention to it. This name is very stupid and doesn't suit you at all. That stupid grandma has bad intentions in giving you this name. Don't pay attention to her in the future."

His face was very ugly, but his rambling words were quite different from the icy aura in his body. If someone saw Qi Yan's face from a distance but couldn't hear what he was saying, they would probably feel scared, thinking that he was angry about something big. However, in the eyes of Xue Zimu who listened to his words verbatim, the tall man with a stern face hugged the little kitten with a ignorant face and muttered childish words, which was completely cute in contrast!

When Qi Yan said that Bai Xinlan was a "stupid grandma", Xue Zimu finally couldn't help laughing.

Qi Yan raised his head and saw Xue Zimu's especially happy smile, and was almost dazzled by the beautiful scenery in front of him for a while.

It wasn't the first time Qi Yan saw Xue Zimu's smile, nor was it the first time he was moved by it, but it was the first time he lost his composure like this. After all, a truly heartfelt smile is far from a cold ironic smile and a perfunctory fake smile, and when it comes to Xue Zimu, the latter is already dazzling, while the former has to be said to be thrilling. Rao Qi Yan was always steady and calm, but still lost his mind involuntarily, staring at Xue Zimu in a daze.

As if possessing the magical power of seizing the soul, the ability to think and speak seemed to be lost at this moment, and only the dazzling face occupied the brain.

Just like the first snow turns clear and the spring light suddenly warms up, the whole world is rendered in bright colors.

It wasn't until the little cat stretched out its paws to scratch Qi Yan's chin that he came back to his senses. After realizing that she was stunned by Xue Zimu's smile just now, Qi Yan suddenly looked away in embarrassment, and she extremely despised her shameful behavior in her heart.

But because he has always had a stern face, even though he was in a daze just now, there was no change on the surface, so Xue Zimu didn't notice this, and said to Qi Yan with a smile on his lips: "You should give it a name quickly. , otherwise it will probably take Xiaobai as its own name. It’s been so long, how many should I think of?”

Qi Yan paused after hearing the words, and the words that came to mind involuntarily because of Xue Zimu just now popped up again soon.

"First snow."

"Huh?" Qi Yan's voice was a little soft, and Xue Zimu couldn't hear it clearly for a while.

"Let's call it Chuxue." Qi Yan confirmed by lowering his head and touching the little guy.

"Bleeding?" Xue Zimu read, feeling that something was wrong, but fortunately, he quickly realized, "Chuxue, it's good." Although there seems to be no substantial difference with Xiaobai, it's just a little literary, "But usually Let’s call it Xuexue, please speak more easily.” After all, the homonym is not very good.

If Qi Yan knew the name because of him, I don't know if Xue Zimu would complain like this.

After Qi Yan said it, he also noticed the homonym problem, so he acquiesced to Xue Zimu's "Xuexue" proposal, held the little guy at eye level, stared at its blue eyes, and said solemnly: "Your name is Chuxue, nicknamed Xuexue, not Xiaobai. Do you remember?"

The newly released "Chuxue" student tilted his head and let out a "Mi" in a daze.

Xue Zimu: "..." If you talk about Xiaobai again, you really have to remember it, why is the all-powerful president of the Qi family that you agreed to be so childish! And I actually feel a little cute!

The atmosphere of the two and one cat was weird and harmonious, but it was quickly broken by a flattering discourse: "Why don't you go in and sit when Young Master Qi is here, and you too, Zi Mu, why do you let Young Master Qi stand at the door."

Xue Li wasn't there that day, Xue Zimu had received Qi Yan's news in advance, so he went to meet him at the door very quickly, but Yao Yue was notified until the security guard passed the news to the housekeeper.

Qi Yan came quite early, and Yao Yue had just woken up, so he had to spend some time putting on light makeup, so he came late.

Because the last time he broke into Xue Zimu's room and was seen by Qi Yan, Yao Yue had been feeling angry all the time, thinking about how to restore his impression in front of Qi Yan, but now he naturally behaved extra warmly and politely.

But Qi Yan didn't buy it.

Although the marriage has been decided now, it is reasonable to say that Yao Yue can be regarded as Qi Yan's mother-in-law, but it happens that Xue Li is not here. For this stepmother who has no blood relationship with Xue Zimu and has taken care of Xue Zimu for a few days, Qi Yan has no patience and no need to talk to her. She said more, so she just nodded to her, and said coldly: "No need." Then she put Xuexue in Xue Zimu's hand, and got into the car directly.

Seeing this, Xue Zimu twitched the corners of his mouth, smiled and said to Yao Yue, "Aunt Yao, we have to leave first, goodbye." After speaking, he got into the car.

The low-key luxury car roared away. Yao Yue waved away the exhaust fumes and gritted his teeth at the rear of the car. The "dowry" that Xue Li promised to buy for Xue Zimu, Yao Yue suddenly felt that Xue Zimu must not take advantage of it. But the surface still has to be seen, Yao Yue thought, turned around and went back to make plans.

There are many people in the hospital, and the road is a good time to talk about things, so Qi Yan took the initiative to ask about the project.

Xue Zimu said briefly, and Qi Yan raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard it, "What Xue Li said is that he is going to do this project and wants to cooperate with me?"

Xue Zimu nodded, "That's right."

"Oh," Qi Yan sneered, "he will take advantage of loopholes." Seeing that Xue Zimu was puzzled, Qi Yan explained to him: "This project was originally a project that Shi'an Real Estate was preparing to compete for, and I didn't even guarantee that land. It is absolutely impossible for Xue Li to win 100% of the time. He said he wanted to cooperate with me, but in fact he just wanted to use his reputation to get involved, so as to take advantage of it."

Xue Zimu was suddenly surprised, "Xue Li couldn't get that piece of land? Then how did he make it sound like he was just about to start construction?"

"Because his plan is not small." Qi Yan said: "Xue Li probably got some news from somewhere, and he was greedy for this land. But the Xue family itself is not engaged in real estate, and the funds are not as strong as other companies. Maybe the land will be photographed. Shi'an is also planning to invest in this project, and Xue Li will definitely know that if he directly proposes to add a sum of money to take shares in the name of his father-in-law, I will not be so easy to refuse. But he is too greedy , I deliberately said to ask me to cooperate first, and asked me to contribute, but it seemed that he was the one who took the lead in the project. If I agreed, he would be more likely to win the bid with the help of Shian's name and funds. The one who earns the most." Qi Yan said with rare sarcasm and twitched the corners of his mouth, "Xue Li wants me to give up this hen that lays golden eggs, and let Shi'an work hard to give him a fake wedding dress."

Shi'an Real Estate is an enterprise under Qi's, and it can be said to be a leader in the real estate industry in Beijing and even the whole country. There are quite a lot of companies wanting to compete in that land. With the backing of the Qi family, Shi'an has strong capital and capabilities. The possibility of success is the greatest, but there are also some risks. As for Xue Li, one has no relevant experience, two has no financial resources, and three has no other background. It is completely idiotic to want to win the bid.

Xue Zimu looked at Qi Yan, and felt that he was completely different from the childish painting style when he was talking about Xuexue before, and when he talked about work, his momentum suddenly became much stronger. Seeing him sneer at Xue Li's plan, Xue Zimu's mood improved, "Since Xue Li has no ability to get that piece of land, then don't worry about him."

Qi Yan didn't agree when he heard the words, instead he tapped the steering wheel with his index finger, pondered for a moment and said: "I think I can give 'father-in-law' a big gift."
