Chapter 943: Chapter 563: A Grown Man Locks the Door to Sleep? Honor Student vs. Underachiever (Part 2)
“I know…” Ruan ngxi opened the bag and handed him a plastic bag, “Mainly to get your dication.”
dication?
Qi Zeyan never considered himself as a patient, so he naturally didn’t care about taking or applying dication.
“Right, I also brought back your phone charger, tablet, computer, and all that.” As an assistant, Ruan ngxi knew exactly what he needed.
As she handed the items to Qi Zeyan, he paused for two seconds, seemingly rembering that his tone earlier wasn’t very good, “You were out for too long…”
“I originally just wanted to go to the supermarket outside the complex to buy so things, but then I found your dication was still at the hospital. Later, I wanted to call you but found your phone was off.” Ruan ngxi explained to him while she lowered her head to help organize his things.
Knowing every little habit of his, being thorough, considerate, and attentive, ironically made Qi Zeyan a bit uneasy.
“Girls shouldn’t go out alone this late.”
“I know, just put on the dication first.”
…
Qi Zeyan applied the dication while Ruan ngxi sat beside him watching.
Before, when he said he would co ho with her, she even thought about whether she could just throw him down or sothing. But later when he really moved in, she worried if he’d be uncomfortable or not used to living there, being utterly concerned.
He had just taken a shower, his hair was ssy, and it was impossible to have a shower and a blow-dry before bed, let alone style it with so pomade.
His hair was slightly long, covering part of his brows and eyes, softening the usual elite deanor during work, even his features were much gentler, especially wearing the middle-aged style pajamas, he completely lost his usual posture of a young master.
“What are you staring at?” Qi Zeyan, after applying the dication, found her staring blankly at him.
“Huh?” Ruan ngxi snapped back to reality, “I… I just think that you…”
“Hmm?”
“You have a lot of hair.” Ruan ngxi smiled sheepishly, not daring to show her true intentions.
Qi Zeyan wiped off the ointnt from his hands and casually ran his fingers through his hair, seemingly quite pleased with his own hair volu too.
After applying the dication, Qi Zeyan naturally went back to his room to sleep, as it was a single-person apartnt of a young girl, hanging around the living room as a grown man wasn’t appropriate.
anwhile, Ruan ngxi quickly took a shower and specially changed into what she thought was quite a sexy nightgown.
She prepared to seize the chance to say goodnight and make her presence felt.
However, after calling out a few tis at the door, there was no response from inside.
Could he have fallen asleep already?
With at delivered right to the door, even if she wasn’t going to eat it tonight, just having a look would be satisfying, right? Convinced that there was no movent inside, she took a deep breath, ready to open the door, only to be dumbfounded…
He had locked the door from inside!
He was a grown man, locking the door to sleep? What was he guarding against?
Ruan ngxi stood at the doorway, utterly stunned.
After returning to her room, she lay on the bed tossing and turning, unable to sleep. She didn’t even lock her door, so why did he lock his? The more she thought about it, the angrier she beca. But after a whole night of turmoil, she eventually dozed off.
The next morning, she had to rush to the hospital to put on a show in front of the old man Qi.
“…What did you say, he ran off?” The old man, hearing that soone with a la leg could still run, grew more and more furious, “How did he run off?”
“I don’t know either.” Ruan ngxi feigned innocence, “Do you need to look for him?”
“No need, leave him be. I refuse to believe he can survive long out there without his ID.”
The old man grew increasingly annoyed, comparing Jiang Family’s grandson with his own…
Too lazy to look for him.
He believed that it was impossible for him to hide at the Jiang Family with his brothers or at the Huo Family, he’d surely co back eventually. He never imagined that he was hiding out at Ruan ngxi’s place.
“If you’re not looking for him, then I…” Ruan ngxi pursed her lips.
“You’ve had a hard ti lately. Since your boss took off, might as well give you a few days off.”
Ruan ngxi originally thought that she’d have to go to work at the company, but upon hearing she could actually have a break, she realized that ant she could stay at ho 24/7 and be alone with him?
Could happiness arrive too abruptly?
**
Leaving the hospital, Ruan ngxi rembered to call Tang Wan, but Tang Wan was in the middle of a class and decisively rejected the call.
Tang Wan was on the verge of laughing.
Today’s childcare class was teaching how to soothe a child, and Huo Qinqi was there auditing, being a “listener, transfer student,” without a wife to take care of, directly got called up to demonstrate by the teacher.
For instance, how to change a baby’s diaper, and how to hold a baby correctly, Huo Qinqi was completely perplexed, and could only sneak glances at the teacher, watching how she did it.
Many people were in front watching him, sneaking glances, yet he couldn’t make it too obvious.
The key issue was that he had barely held a child. Although he watched Jiangjiang grow up, he spent most of his ti outside, knowing he was clumsy, and never really held him when he was little.
Even though they practiced with realistic dolls in class, he still didn’t know where to start.
He finally understood what Qi Zeyan used to say: “You think copying howork in class is easy? You have to be skillful to copy howork without the teacher noticing.”
Indeed…
It didn’t just require technique but a thick face as well!
It might be a personality trait, where Jiang Jinsang, when faced with sothing he didn’t understand, would ask directly, but Huo Qinqi wouldn’t. He always believed he could handle it himself.
But taking care of a child isn’t about strength or brute force.
Tang Wan had never seen Huo Qinqi so flustered before.
These were also Jiang Jinsang’s first lessons. By the end of the course, Jiang Jinsang did quite a good job, receiving praise from the teacher, who glanced at Huo Qinqi, “If you were my official student, otherwise…”
“You would definitely be kept in for detention today.”
“Since you’re friends with Fifth Lord, you should ask him for more advice. What he does is textbook-worthy, whereas you…”
“Just keep working harder.” The teacher was sowhat at a loss for words regarding Huo Qinqi’s performance today and stopped from saying too much, offering a consoling remark, “It’s your first ti, and actually, you’re doing pretty well.”
This kind of polite remark, Huo Qinqi often said to his subordinates, never expecting karma to circle back, with soone using it on him.
Later, the teacher divided everyone into two groups based on completion, Jiang Jinsang naturally being in the top group, and for the first ti in his life, Huo Qinqi…
Was placed in the bottom group!
Be it during studies or work or while on missions, Huo Qinqi had never been treated this way.
For the first ti in his life, he doubted his usually reliable hands-on abilities, feeling as though he couldn’t complete anything properly.
His first major setback was due to Shen Shuci.
And at this mont, he had a hunch that his second major setback might be due to this small mishap.
Sohow, this was relayed back to Qi Zeyan, who teased him: “Old Huo, how does it feel staying in the bottom group?”
Huo Qinqi raised an eyebrow, keeping a straight face when responding:
“Staying in the bottom group might not be strange to you, but…”
“It’s my first ti, and it’s a bit novel.”
Qi Zeyan frowned: Is this snarky guy implying sothing? What does he an by not strange to ?
