After explaining, Ji Yuanyuan looked at Li Lei seriously, “First Uncle, if First Aunt has been behaving abnormally recently, I suggest you take her to the hospital when she’s in a better mood.”
Li Lei did not disregard her suggestion just because Ji Yuanyuan was a child.
He nodded solemnly, “I understand. I’ll go when I find a suitable opportunity.”
This little episode did not affect the atmosphere of the month-old banquet.
Everyone ate happily, and Meng Xiaoning was quite normal after that.
Not long after Li Jie’s one-month-old banquet, Li Xu and Zhang Kun spent the weekend looking for a place to go to B City with Ji Yuanyuan.
Li Miao had already helped them find three renovation teams with good local reputations.
Li Xu gave the size of the house and also made her own request.
The three companies had already finished designing the blueprints and gave Li Xu the price.
The prices of the three shops were about the same. Now, they only needed to look at the design drawings and use whichever shop was better.
The family of three went over on Saturday morning. They arrived in B City at noon. After a simple lunch, they met Li Miao and Gong Wenbai.
Then, Li Miao brought Li Xu and Zhang Kun to meet the three renovation teams one by one.
Meanwhile, Ji Yuanyuan was brought by Gong Wenbai to the place where she had arranged to meet Qin Mucheng.
Their meeting place was at the mall. Qin Mucheng stood in the open space in front of the mall and waited.
It was not easy to find a parking space in the mall. Gong Wenbai drove the car to Qin Mucheng. After Ji Yuanyuan got out of the car, he quickly drove the car away.
Qin Mucheng had brought a chauffeur with him, so Gong Wenbai did not have to worry about Ji Yuanyuan’s schedule.
The two of them hadn’t seen each other for a long time, so they were both a little reserved.
“Have you eaten?” Qin Mucheng asked softly.
Ji Yuanyuan saw that he was standing two meters away from her, so she took a step forward and stood beside him, “I’ve eaten.”
Qin Mucheng looked at Ji Yuanyuan in embarrassment.
Ji Yuanyuan acted like she did when she was young. She reached out and held Qin Mucheng’s hand naturally, “Big Brother Mucheng, I want to eat ice cream. Can you buy one for me?”
Qin Mucheng could not help but glance at their hands. He pursed his lips and nodded, “I remember there’s an ice cream shop inside. I’ll take you there.”
After saying that, he hesitated for a moment before holding Ji Yuanyuan’s hand and exhorted, “Follow me closely, there are many people inside.”
“Alright!” Ji Yuanyuan nodded obediently.
The two of them quickly walked into the crowd. After Qin Mucheng bought ice cream for Ji Yuanyuan, he took the elevator to the top floor.
There was a coffee shop on the top floor, and the environment was pretty good.
Moreover, there was a separate balcony where they could see the scenery outside.
“I heard it from my classmate. He came here and said that the balcony was very quiet and no one would disturb us.” Qin Mucheng explained to Ji Yuanyuan in a low voice.
After entering the shop, Qin Mucheng pointed at the balcony outside and said in a low voice, “Can we sit there?”
The waiter was very cultured. He smiled and explained, “I’m sorry, Sir. The balcony outside is our VIP seat. You can only sit there after spending a certain amount.”
Qin Mucheng frowned slightly and said impatiently, “I’ll order every cup of your coffee, will it be enough?”
Hearing this, Ji Yuanyuan hurriedly tugged at the corner of his clothes.
Was he crazy? Do you want to water the plants with so much coffee?
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry. We can’t drink so much.” Ji Yuanyuan quickly said.
The corners of the waiter’s mouth were almost reaching the back of his head, but he retracted it when he heard that.
“I’ll order this and this.” Ji Yuanyuan stepped forward and pointed at the two pictures on the menu.
Then, she looked at the waiter.
“You’re short of fifty yuan!” The waiter missed a big order and spoke weakly.
Ji Yuanyuan pulled Qin Mucheng over, “Look at what you want to drink. We’re still short of fifty yuan.”
Qin Mucheng took a look and casually pointed, “This one!”
He was referring to the most expensive one in the shop.
The waiter hurriedly took the two of them to the balcony.
The balcony was enclosed by glass. The temperature was suitable, but the light was very bright.
The waiter quickly served the coffee that the two of them wanted.
Ji Yuanyuan took a spoon and stirred the coffee cup. After stirring all the garnish on the coffee cup, he looked at Qin Mucheng, “What is your thought now?”
Qin Mucheng looked at Ji Yuanyuan and whispered, “I don’t want to go!”
Her expression was a little arrogant and Ji Yuanyuan found it funny.
She reached out and pinched Qin Mucheng’s face, “Why not?”
“Why should I go?”
“Why should you go? Because you can learn more knowledge there. You’ll be managing such a big company in the future!” Ji Yuanyuan said.
“With my ability, it’s the same no matter where I go,” Qin Mucheng said stubbornly.
“Qin Mucheng!” After a long silence, Ji Yuanyuan suddenly opened her mouth and called out his full name.
This was the first time Ji Yuanyuan had called him by his full name since they had known each other for so many years.
He looked at Ji Yuanyuan in surprise. Under Ji Yuanyuan’s serious gaze, he quickly lost and said aggrievedly, “If I leave, what if you fall in love with someone else? Not now, but it didn’t mean it wouldn’t happen in the future!”
Hearing Qin Mucheng’s words, Ji Yuanyuan could not help but laugh.
She thought for a moment and said, “Your family is wealthy, but our family is just an ordinary family. Do you think you want to catch me more? Or do 1 want to catch you more?”
When Qin Mucheng heard this, his expression turned serious. He reached out to hold Ji Yuanyuan’s hand and shook his head, “Don’t you dare say that!”
“I’m telling the truth. Besides, I’ve already seen such an outstanding person like you. It’s already very difficult for ordinary men to enter my eyes. Furthermore, I’m also worried you’ll fall in love with someone else when you go abroad. Therefore, I came here this time to make an agreement with you.” “What agreement?” Qin Mucheng asked softly.”
He held Ji Yuanyuan’s hand as he spoke and did not let go.
“We’re still young. Although we were engaged when we were young, we can’t confirm our feelings for each other, so we can’t promise each other anything. However, since we’re engaged, we can’t pretend that we didn’t exist, right?” Qin Mucheng looked at Ji Yuanyuan with a heavy gaze.
“What I mean is that before I turn eighteen, neither of us is allowed to date, not with anyone. After we turn eighteen, we can try to be together. If you think it’s suitable, then we’ll get married when we’re of age. If we weren’t suitable, or if one of us met someone we liked more, then this betrothal would be considered as if it never happened. How about it?”
After Ji Yuanyuan finished speaking, Qin Mucheng shook his head and said, “There’s one thing I don’t agree with..”
