Chapter 672: Are You Willing to Follow Me?
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Zhang Kun led everyone into the house. With Qin Mucheng’s support, Ji Yuanyuan slowly walked into the courtyard.
She was only a little over a month old now, but Qin Mucheng was so nervous as if she was about to give birth. He supported her wherever she went.
Ji Yuanyuan turned around to look at Qin Mucheng helplessly and accidentally saw Ji Zi’ang’s expression.
He lowered his head silently and stood still. No one knew what he was thinking.
“Second Brother?” Ji Yuanyuan called out.
Ji Zi’ang seemed to have regained his senses and looked up at Ji Yuanyuan.
“We’re home.” Ji Yuanyuan reminded.
Ji Zi’ang nodded and strode into the courtyard.
After the funeral, it was time to discuss Liu Guihua’s retirement.
In the past, when the old couple was around, they could still take care of each other.
But now that Li Zhiming had passed away. If Liu Guihua lived alone, it would be too late for regrets if something happened.
“I’m not going anywhere. I’ll stay here.” Liu Guihua was very stubborn.
She didn’t want to go anywhere. She just wanted to stay here and accompany Li Zhiming’s portrait.
No matter what Li Xu and Li Miao said, she was determined not to follow her daughter to B City.
“How about this? Don’t worry about it. Xiaomin and I will come back to stay.” Li Yong said.
Li Nian was thirteen years old and studied in the county’s primary school.
Li Yong originally planned to let Li Nian go to the city to study in junior high school.
He had not studied much and was not very promising. He wanted his son to study hard and not follow his old path.
Although Qin Zhiye had retired for many years, he still had connections.
When the time came, Qin Xiaomin would be transferred to the city to work, and it would also be convenient for her to pick up the children.
Li Yong was the only one who had it harder, but his job was not like going to the office, which required him to be punctual.
The plan was good, but there was no other way now, so they could only agree.
Her mother was unwilling to leave her hometown. Her sister and sister had taken root in B City and would never come back.
With his brother’s current situation, he couldn’t leave the store in the city. Moreover, he was taking care of Li Xiang himself. He didn’t have that much energy to take care of his mother.
“No, what about Niannian if you guys come back? Didn’t we agree to let him go to the city to study in junior high school?” Liu Guihua objected.
When Li Nian heard this, she said sensibly, “Grandma, as long as I study hard, it’s the same no matter where you are.”
At this moment, Li Lei, who had been silent all this while, finally spoke, “Stop arguing. I’ll sell the shop in two days and come back.”
“If you come back, what about Xiangxiang? I don’t need you to care about me. I can do it myself.” Liu Guihua’s face was full of disapproval.
“Xiangxiang will study in town in junior high. I’ll just pick her up and drop her off every day.” Li Lei said in a low voice, “Also, I’ll rent a few acres of land. I’d better go back to my old job. I’m not cut out for business.”
He was clumsy and did not know how to speak. His business had never been good.
“It’ll be easy if Big Brother comes back.” Qin Xiaomin suddenly said. Xiangxiang can go to high school with Niannian in the city. I’ll accompany them to study in the city. I’ll bring them back on Saturday and weekend. When the time comes, Big Brother can also see the children.”
Li Lei subconsciously looked at Li Xiang.
If she were willing, it would be a good idea.
His daughter had grown up and needed a female elder by her side.
Qin Xiaomin continued, “As for Big Brother, you don’t have to rent another land. Come back and help Li Yong.”
Li Lei subconsciously wanted to retort. Since they had already moved out, what was the point of coming back now?
Qin Xiaomin didn’t give Li Lei a chance to speak. She looked at Li Xiang and asked in a low voice, “Xiangxiang, are you willing to follow me?”
Since she was young, Qin Xiaomin had been good to Li Xiang, so the relationship between the two of them was not bad.
Li Xiang looked at Li Lei and thought for a moment before nodding at Qin Xiaomin.
The matter was settled.
The family couldn’t stay here forever, so they discussed going back that afternoon.
Ji Zixuan and Huang Weiwei were still on vacation, so it did not matter whether they went back or not.
Gong Wenbai had to go to work, and Mumu was still at home, so Gong Wenbai had to go back.
Zhang Kun and Qin Mucheng had to go back to work, while Ji Zi’ang had to fly overseas.
In the end, Li Xu, Li Miao, Ji Zixuan, and Huang Weiwei stayed behind to accompany Liu Guihua for a few more days.
Qin Mucheng, Ji Yuanyuan, Ji Zi’ang, Gong Wenbai, and Zhang Kun went back to work and flew overseas.
There were no direct flights from City W’s airport to other countries, but there were flights from City B.
Therefore, it was more convenient for him to return to B City before flying overseas.
Early the next morning, the five of them embarked on their journey back to B City.
Ji Zi ang, Qin Mucheng, and Ji Yuanyuan were in the same car.
Zhang Kun could only run to Gong Wenbai’s car.
It was too tiring to run long distances alone. It was easy to get distracted. It was better to have someone to talk to.
In Qin Mucheng’s car, Ji Zi’ang sat in the backseat and looked out of the car window. No one knew what he was thinking.
Ji Yuanyuan felt sleepy easily and was sleepy as she nestled in the passenger seat.
“Do you think that if you really have feelings for someone, would you start a relationship so quickly?” Ji Zi’ang suddenly asked.
Ji Yuanyuan woke up in a daze, “What?”
Ji Zi’ang sighed and looked away.
“If you have someone in your heart, will you hate physical contact with other?”
Ji Zi’ang looked at Ji Yuanyuan and asked again.
Ji Yuanyuan thought about it and nodded, “Of course.”
Ji Zi’ang sighed again and leaned his head against the car window, not saying a word.
He seemed to have neglected one thing. Back then, she was so happy when the boy kissed Fan Yumeng.
Ji Yuanyuan and Qin Mucheng looked at each other. They did not quite understand why Ji Zi’ang suddenly asked this question.
“What’s wrong? Did you have physical contact with someone else?” Ji Yuanyuan asked carefully.
“I didn’t tell you guys.” Ji Zi’ang shook his head. “When I came back to attend your wedding last year, I got back together with Fan Yumeng.”
Ji Yuanyuan thought about it carefully and remembered the name Fan Yumeng.
She seemed to be the girlfriend that he broke up with when he graduated from university.
She was a round-faced and likable little girl.
“Isn’t that good? That girl is quite good.” Ji Yuanyuan said.
He couldn’t bring himself to say what had happened between him and Fan Yumeng.
But now, his heart was in a mess. He could only find someone to confide in and hope that someone could give him some advice.
“After we broke up, I went to look for her. Downstairs, I saw another boy pick
her up from work, bring her breakfast, and kiss her.”
Ji Yuanyuan did not expect Ji Zi’ang’s love story to contain so much information.
She was dumbstruck as she digested the news.
“After getting back together, she changed a lot. It’s been half a year, and we’ve
only met three times. I keep feeling….”
