Chapter 92 - Love Children
Lin Zi Rui yawned and planned to go home soon after he went back to his office. But, as soon as he opened the door, he saw Yang Shao Yu was inside. Lin Zi Rui’s drowsiness was wiped out from his face. Why did this fella appear in front of him so early today? He originally thought he would leave early today and avoided seeing him.
He took off the white coat on his body while ignoring Yang Shao Yu’s bright smile towards him.
Wearing an outer jacket and taking his keys, Lin Zi Rui prepared to leave when Yang Shao Yu stopped him. "Don’t go home first, follow me to a place.”
"Shouldn’t you go to work today?" Lin Zi Rui frowned.
"It’s Saturday, I’m not working today."
"Oh, I still got another shift and will be working late. Right now I’m just going out for a meal first." Lin Zi Rui made excuses.
"I already asked! You don’t have other shift anymore today."
Lin Zi Rui stared at Yang Shao Yu.
Yang Shao Yu pulled Lin Zi Rui’s hand and walked out, "Let’s go."
Lin Zi Rui pulled his hand out from Yang Shao Yu’s claw, and Yang Shao Yu willingly let go. Then he walks side by side with Lin Zi Rui.
"How are you? Did you wear it already?" Ke Yan knocked on the dressing room door.
"Well, I’m done." Jiang Qi’s voice came from inside the door.
Jiang Qi opened the door and standing in front of Ke Yan in a white suit. Jiang Qi adjusted his clothes while asking, "Do I have to wear it like this?"
"Um." Ke Yan helped Jiang Qi to fine-tune his tie.
Ke Yan squeezed Jiang Qi’s face and said, "Don’t be nervous when you see my parents today."
Jiang Qi froze and his face changed for a moment while Ke Yan looked at him in a good mood, "Let’s go."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Um." Jiang Qi took the gift and keep up with Ke Yan.
When the two arrived at Ke family’s home, the venue was almost ready. Ke Yan took Jiang Qi into the house. It was the first time Jiang Qi came to Ke Yan’s family home and he was curious to see everywhere. Really big was his first impression he had of this house.
"I’ll show you around in a while." Ke Yan took Jiang Qi’s hand when he saw his eyes wandering around, blindly walking.
“En.”
"Where are the flowers? Will it arrive soon? Get the ribbons out." They heard voices coming from the inner house as well as busy footsteps coming and going.
Jiang Qi slowly pulled out his hand which was being held by Ke Yan.
" Young master." An elderly housekeeper came out, followed by three or four women in servant’s clothes, all holding things in their hands, which should be used to decorate the party venue.
The old man in housekeeper’s clothes respectfully called Ke Yan Young master.
"Uncle Fu." Ke Yan called out to the old man.
"I’m still thinking about when you will come back just now, young master." Uncle Fu spoke to Ke Yan with a smile. Jiang Qi listened to their conversation and knew that their relationship should be quite close.
"This is ..." Uncle Fu looked at Jiang Qi waiting for introduction.
" He is my......"
"I’m his friend." Jiang Qi timely interrupted Ke Yan’s words, fearing that he would say something like ‘this is someone I like’.
In fact, Jiang Qi really understood Ke Yan very well. Ke Yan is really trying to introduce Jiang Qi as his lover to uncle Fu.
"Hello." Fu Bo greeted Jiang Qi with a smile, "Young master, please go in quickly, I’ll go get busy first." Uncle Fu spoke respectfully and then walked away with his entourage of servants.
Jiang Qi and Ke Yan walked in and saw Lan Ru Yin holding Xiao Ke on the sofa while teasing him to play.
Ke Shao was also there eating fruits.
Ke Shao spotted them first as they came in, "Xiao Yan, you are finally back!"
Lan Ru Yin looked up with a smile on his face, but when she saw Jiang Qi next to Ke Yan, her smile froze halfway and lost in the next second.
Jiang Qi looked at Lan Ru Yin’s reaction, and his nerves became even tighter. He bowed politely to Lan Ru Yin, "He...Hello auntie. It has been a long time.”
When Jiang Qi mentioned their last meeting, Lan Ru Yin’s mind immediately remembered the dark dishes Jiang Qi had cooked before. Since that time, she realized that the meal made by Aunt Li is really delicious.
"Sit down ba." Perhaps because of the memory of that meal, Lan Ru Yin’s attitude towards Jiang Qi was better.
Jiang Qi sat down and Ke Yan sat next to him. Lan Ru Yin grudgingly glared at Ke Yan. Do you need to be so sticky ah?
" Come on eat some fruits." Ke Shao leaned on the sofa and greeted Jiang Qi to eat.
Jiang Qi wanted to thank her, but suddenly he didn’t know how to address Ke Shao.
Jiang Qi looked to Ke Yan for help.
"Call her sister." Ke Yan’s eyes have been looking at Jiang Qi the whole time and watching him turning his head asking for help, made him somehow fulfilled. In his mind, this scene really looks like bringing a prospective daughter-in-law home to show to his family, and then his soon to be wife was silently asking for her husband to help her in timidity.
"Sister." Jiang Qi called out to Ke Shao obediently.
"Ah." Ke Shao responded earnestly, earning Lan Ru Yin’s glares.
Ke Shao ignored her mother’s eyes and took a new silver fork giving him a piece of honey melon.
Lan Ru Yin harrumphed and took Xiao Ke, who was sleeping in her arms and put him into Ke Shao’s arms.
Ke Shao wasn’t deterred, and spoke with a smile, "Mom, do you want to do this?"
"Come on Jiang Qi, you hug him." Ke Shao then put Xiao Ke into Jiang Qi’s arms.
Jiang Qi stiffened as he held Xiao Ke in his arms. The little baby felt so soft in his hand, and he was afraid that a little hard would hurt him.
"Ah, ah, um." Xiao Ke was probably uncomfortably in Jiang Qi’s arms, and he woke up after a short while. He started to twist his body in Jiang Qi’s arms, humming in his mouth, and his mouth started to open to cry.
"Ke Yan, Ke Yan, what to do." Jiang Qi was anxious looking at Ke Yan for help. Then he cannot help but think Ke Yan was also as inexperienced as him.
"Come, you hold him like this." Ke Shao dragged one of Jiang Qi’s hands to Xiao Ke’s butt and another hand to Xiao Ke’s back.
"He’s already crawling, but he just woke up. So you have to hug him for a while." Ke Shao teased the awakened Xiao Ke while talking to Jiang Qi.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJiang Qi held Xiao Ke and rocked his body gently. He feels that Xiao Ke is so cute.
Xiao Ke was probably held very comfortably by Jiang Qi, and he was not afraid of him and the sign of crying also gone. He lay on Jiang Qi’s shoulder, calling ah ah ah ah.
Jiang Qi carefully changed Xiao Ke’s posture and let him sit on his lap. Then he held Xiao Ke’s hand and felt it was really small.
"Miss, your friend is here." A servant came to give Jiang Qi a drink and spoke to Ke Shao by the way.
" Alright." Ke Shao stands and walked out without Xiao Ke. Jiang Qi held Xiao Ke and looked Ke Shao’s back walking away from them, then he looked down at Xiao Ke once again. Looks like he had to hold this little guy for a while ba.
Lan Ru Yin looks at Jiang Qi with complexity. Does he like children so much? It ’s a pity that he could n’t give birth, otherwise, she would n’t be so opposed to them. She then glanced at her son and couldn’t help but gritted her teeth at the sight. Why is he still staring at Jiang Qi? As if from the beginning, his gaze has not been transferred away from Jiang Qi except for a moment when he spoke to her. Until now Lan Ru Yin still didn’t understand what Jiang Qi had that hooked his son so much.
Lan Ru Yin set her teacup down and decided to find her husband to mend her ‘injured’ heart.
When Lan Ru Yin went away, Jiang Qi’s nerve finally relaxed and he bowed his head into Xiao Ke’s neck. Smells so good, so milky.
Xiao Ke was tickled by Jiang Qi’s action and his little hand reached out and patted Jiang Qi’s face.
" Do you really like children?" Ke Yan asked after a moment of silence.
"Um." Jiang Qi nodded.
“......”
"Do you like children?" When Ke Yan didn’t say anything back, Jiang Qi asked him back.
" It’s OK."
"......" Jiang Qi looked down at Xiao Ke and spoke, " I’m a man and I can’t give you a baby. You... Would you like a child of your own?" His voice was barely audible. If not Ke Yan was sitting next to Jiang Qi, he may not hear it as well.
After Ke Yan listened to Jiang Qi’s words, it’s rare for him to be caught by a surprise. He was stunned for a moment before he quickly kissed Jiang Qi’s forehead and hugged him in his arms.
" Just now I was still thinking if we are not together, will you already marry a wife now? Then having a baby. Looking at you like children so much, I’m afraid you will regret being with me. But when I think you might have a baby with another woman, I can’t help but think I would kill that woman. "
Jiang Qi foolishly stayed in Ke Yan’s arms. He hardly ever seen Ke Yan so disconcerted like this. He has always been so confident before.
"He he ..." Jiang Qi smiled and whispered in Ke Yan’s arms, " I won’t, so you can rest assured."
"Ah, ah." Xiao Ke sat on Jiang Qi’s lap and was squeezed between the two. Feeling that he was going to be squashed, he ah ah called out to their attention.
Jiang Qi heard Xiao Ke’s voice and he immediately straightened back his posture. Then he bowed his head and kissed Xiao Ke’s face.
Ke Yan narrowed his eyes looking at Jiang Qi’s deed. Who said it’s good to have a child?
