[twenty three]

Ji Yanchen mercilessly squeezed into Chi Qiu and Lu Ming's rare time together, walking with wind, very chic.

Ji Feining brought some gifts and handed them to Aunt Zhang. He was on crutches and walked with a limp, but it didn't affect his tall and elegant figure.

Probably all the excellent genes of the Ji family were displayed in Ji Feining, and Ji Yanchen only inherited his good looks at most. In layman's terms, Ji Feining can inherit the family business of the Ji family in the eyes of everyone, while Ji Yanchen can only be the mascot of the Ji family in the eyes of outsiders.

The short time of "flower appreciation" in the front yard had to end early.

The four entered the villa, and Aunt Zhang brought new refreshments.

Lu Ming and Ji Feining were talking politely on the scene, Ji Feining answered with a soft smile, and then said: "Yesterday, Yan Chen messed up your younger brother's birthday party, and it made you and Chi Qiu spend a lot of time. Today I will take Let him come to make amends, I hope Mr. Lu will not take it to heart."

"No." Lu Ming took a sip of tea and said politely, "If it wasn't for Master Ji Er, Chi Qiu might have been teased."

Ji Feining smiled noncommittally.

Lu Ming said out of politeness, "Mr. Ji's foot injury is still not healed?"

"It's been a hundred days of injury, and I'm getting old." Ji Feining accidentally dropped his foot when he was on a business trip. He was supposed to recuperate at home, but he couldn't stand his hard work, he basically never recuperated, and his feet healed more slowly.

Lu Ming said: "Mr. Ji still needs to be more careful."

Listening to the conversation between the two, Ji Yanchen rested his chin in boredom. Chi Qiu beside him patted his arm and asked him, "Do you want cake?"

Chi Qiu happened to have a new one in front of him, and he really didn't want to eat it.

Ji Yanchen said awkwardly: "I don't like cakes, it's not like you don't know."

"You obviously..." How did Chi Qiu remember Ji Yanchen's favorite food

"But~ I will definitely eat what you give me." Ji Yanchen interrupted Chi Qiu, really not treating himself as an outsider. He happily picked up the cake in front of Chi Qiu, and showed a provocative expression towards Lu Ming.

Too childish.

Ji Feining was very speechless, he almost slapped Ji Yanchen on the forehead...to add to the confusion.

Fortunately, Lu Ming is a mature person, he was not offended by Ji Yanchen's tricks. From the looks of it, Lu Ming seems to be a little flat about this. Ji Feining didn't know whether Lu Ming's appearance had nothing to do with him or whether he was pretending or his personality, but Ji Feining didn't want to get too involved in the relationship between other people's family and friends.

Right now, apart from Ji Yanchen who chats with Chi Qiu from time to time, the conversation between Ji Feining and Lu Ming has shifted to the business field.

One sentence from you, one sentence from me.

It's boring.

Ji Yanchen couldn't stay any longer. He took a look at Lu Ming's villa and felt that the front yard had a nice view: "Chi Qiu, your home is well greened. Why don't you show me the garden of your villa?"

Ji Feining said in a deep voice, "Yan Chen."

Lu Ming had no objection. Considering that Chi Qiu's eyes were inconvenient, he got up and said, "Chi Qiu's eyes are inconvenient. If Master Ji Er wants to visit, I will lead the way."

"No, you can talk to my brother." Ji Yanchen said, "I know how to take care of Chi Qiu. I have known him much longer than you."

For a moment, the air froze awkwardly.

Ji Feining: "..."

Chi Qiu: "..."

When everyone thought that Lu Ming would be unhappy, he sat down again and said calmly: "Okay, I almost forgot that you are all young."

Chi Qiu shyly wanted to explain, but when the words reached his mouth, his tongue began to knot.

Ji Yanchen knew that he had played it before, so he said directly: "The main thing is that I haven't seen Chi Qiu for a long time, and I have something to say to him. Besides, don't you feel awkward sitting and chatting with the four of us? I am tired of listening to business matters, and Chi Qiu is even more tired."

Lu Ming agreed, he didn't mean to be jealous at all.

On the contrary, Lu Ming actually welcomed Ji Yanchen and Ji Feining's arrival. He felt that Chi Qiu had too few friends, so it would be a bit lonely to always focus on himself.

He said to Chi Qiu: "The scenery in the backyard is also good. I'll ask Aunt Zhang to tidy up the outdoor tables and chairs over there. It just so happens that Mr. Ji and I also have something to talk about at work."

Chi Qiu blinked, not sure if Lu Ming was jealous.

No matter what time it was, Lu Ming's face had little emotion, and his voice had no waves.

Chi Qiu couldn't make a judgment, so he could only simply say: "Yan Chen keeps talking like this, don't be angry."

"I'm not angry."

The guests were still present, so Lu Ming felt that it was not a good time to talk about this. But Chi Qiu grew up with Ji Yanchen, so it doesn't matter if he says it face to face.

After the two went to the backyard, Lu Ming sat back on the sofa.

He and Ji Feining were relatively silent, the two companies had no business dealings, and most of what they said was polite.

It's a pity that there are only a few words in total, and I have already said them just now.

Seeing Lu Ming who was quite calm, Ji Feining thought about it and decided to explain: "I'm sorry, Yan Chen is spoiled by me, and he speaks inappropriately. But he and Chi Qiu are just friends, Mr. Lu don't misunderstand. "

"..." Lu Ming thought that he did not misunderstand.

But if Ji Feining wanted to say it, Lu Ming let him do it.

Seeing the awkward atmosphere, Ji Feining didn't plan to hide it from Lu Ming: "Actually... I'm here to say hello to Mr. Lu first."

"Please tell me."

"I plan to let Yan Chen stay in China to develop in the future."

This is the Ji family's own business, Lu Ming doesn't understand what Ji Feining is doing here to say hello.

Seeing Ji Feining hesitated to speak, Lu Ming still had no curiosity about it.

Ji Feining had read countless people, and this was the first time he saw someone like Lu Ming who didn't show any color on his face. He took a sip of tea and continued: "Once Yan Chen is in China, he will definitely come to Chi Qiu often. I have to go abroad on business most of the time, so I can't control him. They grew up together and have a deep relationship. Of course, this Feelings stop at friendship, please rest assured Mr. Lu."

And Lu Ming knew Chi Qiu's deep affection for him, so he had nothing to worry about at all.

After a few words, he was trying to persuade Ji Feining to feel at ease: "Boss Ji is too worried."

Ji Feining couldn't tell what Lu Ming's attitude was. It stands to reason that the childish hostility shown by Ji Yanchen, an ignorant guy, is too obvious, and anyone would feel displeased.

But Lu Ming in front of him didn't even have any intention of being jealous, Ji Feining couldn't help suspecting that Lu Ming had facial paralysis.

But doubts are doubts. In order not to let Ji Yanchen disturb other people's stable married life, Ji Feining always puts all the ugly things first.

He is like this, he is obviously an elder brother, but he acts as a parent, and he can't let go of Ji Yanchen.

"There is one more thing. I don't know if Chi Qiu has told you about it... This is not a good memory for him. If Mr. Lu doesn't know, I think it would be better for me."

Hearing this, Lu Ming vaguely guessed what Ji Feining was going to say.

Sure enough, what Ji Feining wanted to tell Lu Ming was the kidnapping case that Chi Qiu mentioned.

Unfortunately, what Ji Feining said was completely different from what Chi Qiu said about the follow-up.

Chi Qiu only said that the kidnappers confessed his mistake and took him away.

But Ji Feining said that the kidnappers first caught Ji Yanchen.

...

In the dim memory of the heavy rain, the tall man was wearing a black peaked cap and a dark windbreaker, and he put his hand on the young Ji Yanchen's shoulder.

The rain washed away the differences between two children of the same height and made them look like twin brothers. Especially this morning, Ji Yanchen deliberately wore the same white sweater as Chi Qiu to anger Chi Xia.

The man looked haggard, and he asked hoarsely, "Your name is Ji Yanchen, right?"

Ji Yanchen's shoulder hurt from being pinched by him, and he took a step back in fear, but was firmly held down by the man. Ji Yanchen was so frightened that he couldn't speak, his frightened expression had already betrayed his identity.

In the next second, the man pulled his hair and left, Ji Yanchen cried out in pain and slapped the man indiscriminately.

The man impatiently kicked Ji Yanchen's stomach, the pain made him unable to make a sound for a long time.

A few steps away is a gray van. If Ji Yanchen is brought into the van, it will be completely over.

Chi Qiu suddenly shouted: "Chi Qiu!"

He called out his name to Ji Yanchen, which was enough to attract the man's attention. He rushed up and bit the man's hand hard: "Let him go! Let Chi Qiu go!"

Chi Qiu was knocked to the ground by the man's slap, and the rain became heavier and heavier, their cries were buried in the sound of the rain.

In such bad weather, there is no one on the road.

The man looked at the teeth marks on his hands in frustration, and the veins on his forehead were bulging. He let go of Ji Yanchen's hair, and grabbed Chi Qiu's: "It's not him, it's you?"

Chi Qiu smelled the alcohol in the man's mouth. He trembled, struggled, and shook his head desperately: "We, we are not... Uncle, are you drunk? You have mistaken someone."

The man slanted his mouth and smiled, obviously not believing it.

He picked up the emaciated Chi Qiu and tried to take both children away.

Ji Yanchen, who was kicked in the stomach, curled up pitifully on the ground, like a dying puppy. There was a buzzing sound in Chi Qiu's ears. Seeing Ji Yanchen's terrified expression, he grabbed the man's hand and lay on the ground: "Chi Qiu, go and call your lord! Chi Qiu, run away!" You go and call someone to save me—"

He recklessly blurted out his name, pretending that Ji Yanchen was actually Chi Qiu.

Someone around heard the sound and came, asking loudly what was going on.

The drunken man frowned and took Chi Qiu away.
