Chapter 168 Sweet Kiss
Chapter 168 Sweet Kiss
The next day, Qi Chenyan called Lu Tian to accompany Shi Xing because he had an important shareholders' meeting to attend.
Lu Tian and Bo Jinran came together.
Shi Xing finally realized the feeling that Qi Chenyan was talking about.
It's really not right.
And it's obviously more wrong today than it was yesterday.
Didn't they go out for dinner alone? She thought their relationship would get closer, but for some reason, she didn't feel that way.
Shi Xing felt that there seemed to be a vague ambiguity between them, the kind that could be felt with just a look or a smile.
But that ambiguity always seems to be separated by something, as if they are deliberately keeping their distance.
Shi Xing's gossip spirit was burning, and he really couldn't help it. So when Bo Jinran went out to make a phone call, he immediately pulled Lu Tian and asked quietly and cautiously: "Mom, can I ask you something?"
"what?"
Lu Tian was sitting by the bed, peeling an apple for her. Perhaps she was bored, so after peeling the apple, she was still carving shapes on it. Although Shi Xing couldn't tell what she was carving, that didn't matter.
She cleared her throat: "You and my dad..."
He paused here. After all, it was a matter concerning the elders, so it was not so convenient to ask. Shi Xing hesitated for a few seconds and asked in a different way: "Mom, do you like my dad?"
Lu Tian paused fiddling with the apple and looked up at her with amusement: "Little girl, don't worry about adults' business."
"But A Yan cares about you very much, and he's too embarrassed to ask, so I can only ask for him."
Shi Xing blinked and put all the blame on Qi Chenyan. "Ayan means that you don't need to care about us, just follow your own ideas. He is afraid that you will delay your own happiness because of us."
Lu Tian lowered her eyes and looked at the weird apple she had carved.
She actually wanted to carve a rose.
She smiled and said, "Then you can let him rest assured. I won't let him affect my own happiness."
Shi Xing was extremely curious: "So, Mom, what do you mean..."
Lu Tian sighed. She held the small fruit knife in her hand and chuckled to herself, "We're all old now. How can we talk about likes and dislikes? Doesn't Xingxing find it funny?"
"Why is it funny?"
Shi Xing immediately said, "Love knows no age limit. You can express your love at any age. Besides, Mom isn't old to begin with. If you think about it, she's at the prime of her life."
"Mom, look at those elite women in their forties on TV. How many people pursue them? They love passionately and hate clearly. Also, there are so many women who keep little puppies. If the little puppies don't behave, they just replace them with the next one. They never feel that they are old. These women are what we women ultimately pursue."
Lu Tian raised an eyebrow: "You mean, I should find a little puppy, so that I can experience youth and maybe even feel younger?"
Shi Xing: "Of course, the little puppy is definitely not as mature, steady and interesting as my dad, hahaha."
Lu Tian tapped her forehead lightly: "Little brat."
Shi Xing covered his forehead and blinked.
Lu Tian paused, curled her lips, and tilted her head to look out the window: "Your father and I..."
Her voice was a little light: "We missed too much. My best time and the strongest feelings were all given to another person."
After a few seconds of silence, she added, "It would be unfair to him to turn back now."
If Bo Jinran's feelings for her weren't so deep, she might have considered it.
But his emotions were too strong.
It was so heavy that she was at a loss, and she felt that if she turned around and said she liked him, it would seem like a blasphemy.
"Is it a mistake to have deep feelings?"
Shi Xing pursed her lips tightly, her brows furrowed. "Mom, you're putting too much pressure on yourself. You're just afraid that you won't be able to give the same affection and that it will disappoint my dad, right?"
Lu Tian didn't say anything.
Shi Xing sighed and said in confusion, "But what my father wants is not the deep love you can give him in return. Besides, when two people are together, there is no such thing as complete equality. In a relationship, there may always be someone who loves more."
Just like her and Qi Chenyan.
Every time she thought she loved him enough, he would give her something in return that made her feel like what she had given him was nothing.
But Qi Chenyan couldn't say that she didn't love him.
She loves him just as much and can give everything for him just as much.
It also looks like Lu Tian and Bo Jinran.
"Besides, you think my father's love is so deep that it puts pressure on you. But in fact, he has been making mistakes all the time. His love is too silent. If he doesn't say anything, then you deserve to miss out, right?"
Shi Xing felt that Bo Jinran's relationship was a bit like that between Qi Chenyan and her in the past.
It's all love but they don't want to say it, they hide it.
The final outcome is destined.
"So, your relationship isn't actually that unequal. Mom, even though you loved someone else, it wasn't your fault. He deserved it because he didn't fight for it. Silent love isn't love at all.
Now, you are all at the same starting line of love. Start running now, and it is still uncertain who will love the most in the end.
Lu Tian was a little confused by what Shi Xing said, "Really?"
Shi Xing nodded: "Yes."
Well, anyway, it was just a bunch of nonsense, and she herself thought it made no sense, but that didn't stop people who were in love from getting confused, and Lu Tian probably couldn't think of anything wrong with it.
Yes, fall in love.
Based on Shi Xing's experience, Lu Tian definitely has feelings for Bo Jinran!
She looked at Lu Tian frowning and thinking silently, then raised her eyes to look at the door of the ward. Bo Jinran had just returned from a phone call and had been standing there for a while.
Shi Xing raised his eyebrows and made a 'yeah' gesture to him.
Bo Jinran: “…”
He smiled helplessly.
But deep down, he began to reflect on himself because of Shi Xing's words.
Indeed, silent love is not love, it is just self-touching.
You deserve what has happened to you.
In the afternoon, Qi Chenyan came back early and would not leave again today, so he asked Lu Tian to go back and rest.
After Lu Tian and Bo Jinran left, Qi Chenyan sat down on the bed and tilted his head to look at Shi Xing: "What bad things did you do today?"
Shi Xing: “…How could that be?”
She looked at him speechlessly: "No, am I so bad in your heart that I always do bad things and never do good things?"
Qi Chenyan did doubt her.
She is probably pregnant now and has nothing else to do. She is so bored and just worries about others every day.
Lu Tian and Bo Jinran had been here for most of the day, and he really didn't believe that she could resist getting involved.
The good thing she said was probably not a good thing.
Ah.
Qi Chenyan sighed and pinched her nose: "Just be good to me."
Shi Xing smiled and hugged his neck, "I'm very good, don't worry."
Qi Chenyan was too lazy to talk to her.
Forget it, she is the eldest now, as long as she is happy.
He simply placed his palm lightly on her abdomen, "Are you feeling uncomfortable today?"
Shi Xing shook his head. "The baby is very well behaved and there's nothing wrong with him."
She even felt like she could be discharged from the hospital.
As he spoke, Shi Xing suddenly asked Qi Chenyan: "Ayan, what do you think, will our baby be a boy or a girl, or will it be twins like me and my brother, a boy and a girl?"
In fact, seeing that Bo Yunyan cared so much about the baby's gender, Shi Xing also thought about this issue. She might want twins, a boy and a girl, like her and Bo Yunyan.
Qi Chenyan frowned when he heard this: "Then it's still a baby girl."
"why?"
Shi Xing was curious, and Qi Chenyan was confused: "What if it's a boy and he really looks like your brother? I don't want to take care of a little monk."
He got a headache when he thought about having to take little Bo Yunyan with him.
It's obviously his son.
"..."
Shi Xing was also speechless about his thoughts.
"You are so childish."
She glared at Qi Chenyan and let him go.
Qi Chenyan smiled and hugged her to coax her: "Okay, boys and girls are the same, I like them all, is this okay, isn't it childish?"
Shi Xing pouted and hummed softly, and Qi Chenyan kissed her pouting lips, "Really, how could I not like the baby that Xingxing went through so much hardship to give birth to? I feel so distressed and I love you so much."
She gets injections every day without blinking an eye.
She took medicine every day. Although she looked at the medicine with disgust and would deliberately act like a spoiled child, she still drank it obediently in the end.
Qi Chenyan couldn't help her with anything, and he felt really distressed.
Every day when he felt the pain of the needle piercing his skin, he would wonder why he couldn't feel the pain for her.
He wished he could bear all the pain for her.
He had originally thought that he would never let her get hurt or feel pain again.
But now, all this pain was also caused by him.
He held her in his arms, caressed her belly, and said softly, "Anyway, whether it's a boy or a girl, I will love them very much. We will only have them in the future. We won't have any other children, okay?"
He had actually already made up his mind to have the vasectomy surgery in two months when he was not busy with work.
Never let her suffer like this again.
Shi Xing nodded: "Okay."
Anyway, she didn't want to have too many children. She originally thought one would be enough, but now there are two, that's more than enough.
Any more and she might go crazy.
Qi Chenyan touched her hair and was quiet for a while before saying, "Xingxing, I'm leaving Kyoto for Haidu tomorrow. I'll be gone for about two days. Let mom accompany you for these two days. You stay in the hospital and don't go anywhere, okay?"
Shi Xing frowned: "Are you going on a business trip to Haidu?"
"Ah."
Qi Chenyan nodded and didn't hide it from her, "You know about the An family. Lu Ci and I have already obtained the shares of An's company. However, it is not so easy to completely take over An's company. Those people in the An family will not give up so easily. Lu Ci has been gone for several days. The day after tomorrow, An's shareholders' meeting will elect a new chairman, and I have to go there."
The An family is very powerful in Haidu, but getting equity doesn't mean the problem can be solved.
If you want to completely get An's, there is still a lot to do.
Taking power is only the first step.
"I see."
Shi Xing frowned slightly, a little worried: "After all, Haidu is the An family's territory. Although you have obtained their shares, it is also more dangerous because of this. You and Brother Lu Ci have to be careful."
"rest assured."
Qi Chenyan kissed her forehead and said, "Believe in your husband."
Shi Xing also wanted to believe him, not to mention that Lu Ci was there.
But after he left early the next morning, she was still uneasy.
This situation lasted until the third day, which was the day after he left, the day of the shareholders' meeting he mentioned.
From the beginning of that morning, Shi Xing felt something strange in his heart and was always a little uneasy.
It was almost seven o'clock in the evening when he called to tell her that the shareholders' meeting had just ended and Lu Ci had taken office as the new chairman of An Group.
Shi Xing breathed a sigh of relief and praised him: "You are really amazing."
Qi Chenyan chuckled: "There will be a cocktail party later, Lu Ci and I have to attend. There is also a meeting tomorrow morning, and we will be back after the meeting."
Shi Xing finally felt relieved. "Then drink less alcohol, or better yet, don't drink at all."
I always feel uneasy about drinking alcohol from outside.
Qi Chenyan smiled and said yes, "It might be a little late at night, don't wait for my call, go to bed early and don't stay up late."
"it is good."
Shi Xing agreed obediently, and the two talked for a few more words before hanging up the phone.
She felt relieved, washed up early and went to bed.
However, that night, around ten o'clock, Shi Xing was woken up by a phone call.
It was Song Lan calling.
As soon as he opened his mouth, he was very anxious: "Xingxing, hurry up and check the trending searches!"
Generally speaking, Song Lan would not call her so late for no reason unless it was really important.
Shi Xing rubbed his eyes and sat up, blankly opened the hot search, and then saw the first hot search term: Xingchen hot kiss
Shi Xing was a little confused.
When were the photos and videos posted online?
But there is nothing for Song Lan to worry about.
She frowned and clicked on the trending search. After seeing the content posted by the marketing account, her pupils shrank slightly and she instantly woke up.
"At the inauguration dinner for the new chairman of the An Corporation, the prince of the Qi family and his wife Shi Xing kissed sweetly, attracting envy."
Shi Xing's heart suddenly beat.
What? She didn’t even go to Haidu, how could she have a sweet kiss with Qi Chenyan at the dinner?
Shi Xing breathed hard, clicked on the Weibo post, and took a closer look at the photo below it.
The lighting in the photo was exceptionally dim, and there were indeed two people sitting on the sofa in the corner.
A woman in a blue evening gown and a man in a silver-gray suit.
The photo was taken from the side, and the man's profile was curved coldly, while the woman tilted her head to look at the man, her profile was pretty and there was a smile on the corner of her lips.
From this angle, their faces are very close.
It doesn't look like they were kissing in the photo, but because they were so close, it felt like they were about to kiss in the next second.
Therefore, fans under this Weibo post were all crying out, asking if there were any other photos and where the kissing photos were, and asking the blogger to post them all quickly and not keep people in suspense.
"Xingxing is so beautiful and the prince is so handsome. It's been a long time since I saw them in the same frame. So sweet."
"My CP soul has been resurrected. Who knows how many times this CP has made me sit up!"
"When it's sad, it's really sad. When it's sweet, it's really sweet. Just one frame together kills all the couples!"
"I want to see them kissing. Where are the kissing photos? Please release them quickly!"
Netizens are all shipping this couple, but Shi Xing’s eyes are the only one that has a cold look in them.
After all, although the person in the photo looks very similar to her from the side, or perhaps because of the lighting, it is not very clear.
But she knew that it was not her.
Shi Xing looked at the photo and guessed silently.
Yes, Enron?
