After they had enough playing, Jiang Mochen helped the two of them wash away the foam on their bodies with water, wiped the water droplets on their bodies with a towel, and then put on pajamas for the two children.
After Qi Qi took a shower, he was ready to go to bed. Bo Yan wanted to drink some water, but there was no mineral water in Qi Qi’s room, so he went down the stairs.
Yan Qingchi wanted to eat oranges before going to bed, but there were only some apples left in the small refrigerator in the bedroom. Jiang Mochen was still cleaning the bathroom at the moment. The two little guys splashed water everywhere in the bathroom. It would be bad if he slipped up tomorrow. So Yan Qingchi went downstairs by himself, sat on the sofa in the living room, peeled oranges and ate them.
Seeing Bo Yan coming down, he reached out and handed Bo Yan a few oranges and asked him, “Do you want to eat?”
Bo Yan shook his head, “I brushed my teeth.”
Yan Qingchi took his hand back without trying to teach the child bad things. “Then I will pack it for you and Qi Qi tomorrow, and you can take it to school to eat.”
Bo Yan knew that Qi Qi’s parents would often bring him some food, whether it was fruit or snacks. Qi Qi was very generous and would always share it with him and the other students. Sometimes he looked at it and thought, if only his father could pack some snacks for him.
He looked at Yan Qingchi, walked over, walked up to him, and asked in a low voice, “Uncle, are you Qi Qi’s biological father?”
Yan Qingchi didn’t expect that he would ask him this, so he set the plate aside, patted the seat next to him and asked him to sit down.
Bo Yan sat over and still looked up at him.
“Why do you ask that?” Yan Qingchi said softly.
Bo Yan thought for a while and pursed his lips. He didn’t know whether he should say it or not. He actually wanted to ask Yan Qingchi, even if he was not his biological father, would he always treat Qi Qi well? He knew that his father was about to get married, and he was marrying an aunt he was unfamiliar with. Every time the aunt saw him, she would smile, talk to him, and touch his hair.
But Bo Yan didn’t like her very much, so Bo Yan wanted to ask Yan Qingchi, even if he was not the aunt’s own child, will the aunt treat him well? Will she always treat him well?
But he was not familiar with Yan Qingchi and was embarrassed to ask, so he lowered his head.
Seeing him lowering his head, Yan Qingchi leaned over and tilted his head to look at him and asked, “What’s wrong? Is there anything you can’t tell uncle? Uncle is an adult and maybe he can help you solve it.”
Bo Yan raised his head and Yan Qingchi smiled at him, very tenderly. Bo Yan thought for a while and said softly: “Uncle, can you and Uncle Jiang not quarrel or divorce?”
Yan Qingchi was stunned by this sentence for a moment, wondering why Bo Yan suddenly asked this question.
Bo Yan didn’t wait for his answer and continued quietly, “Qi Qi doesn’t like divorce. He doesn’t want to be separated from you. Can you always be as good as you are now?”
Yan Qingchi suddenly felt sorry for him. He looked at the little boy in front of him who had lowered his head. Bo Yan was young, but he was obviously more thoughtful than Qi Qi. His own parents always quarreled and had gotten divorced. He and Qi Qi were good friends, so he was afraid that Qi Qi would encounter the same thing. He didn’t want Qi Qi to have the same experience as him, so he said these words to Yan Qingchi.
Yan Qingchi reached out and hugged him, “Don’t worry, I won’t quarrel with Uncle Jiang, nor will I divorce him. We will watch Qi Qi grow up.”
Bo Yan thought this was good, and feeling a little envious, he nodded and said thank you, uncle.
Yan Qingchi looked at him and rubbed his head, “Yan Yan is so sensible and cute. Even if your parents are divorced, they will still like you very much and will watch you grow up.”
“Really?”
Yan Qingchi nodded and comforted him, “Well, really, their divorce is a matter between the two adults and has nothing to do with you. You are still their favorite baby.”
“Then why are they quarreling? What about the divorce?” Bo Yan asked.
Yan Qingchi couldn’t answer this question. There were many reasons for quarrels between couples, and there were many reasons for divorce. He was not Bo Feng, nor Fu Minzhi. He didn’t know why. He only knew that Bo Yan was innocent.
But Bo Yan was the most seriously harmed among them.
“I don’t know.” Yan Qingchi said honestly, “But I think you are very good, so I think your parents must also like you very much.”
Bo Yan did not speak. He only looked at his knees. Then after a while, stood up.
“Uncle, what we said today, don’t tell anyone else, including Qi Qi, okay?”
Yan Qingchi nodded, “Okay.”
Bo Yan stretched out his finger, Yan Qingchi ticked him, then Bo Yan let go, after that he picked up the glass and drank half a glass of water, said good night to Yan Qingchi, and then went up the stairs.
Yan Qingchi sighed. He intuitively felt that Bo Yan still had something to ask him, but he felt too embarrassed. He just felt that this child also had it very difficult. He couldn’t help but lower his head and look at his belly. Every child was born with love and tenderness. They were full of expectations and should be the happiest existence in the world. However, their growth was different. He hoped that all children could be treated warmly, but the only thing he could guarantee was treating his own children well.
Jiang Mochen watched Qi Qi lie down on the bed, talked with him for a while, and then left. He returned to his bedroom and saw that Yan Qingchi was not there, so he went down to the living room to look for him. As soon as he walked down the stairs, he saw Yan Qingchi sitting on the sofa eating an orange. Seeing him coming down, Yan Qingchi took the initiative to ask, “Are you eating?”
Jiang Mochen felt that he was a bit like having been caught stealing something, which was a bit funny, but he resisted laughing. He walked over and helped peel two of them, then put the rest away, “You’ll get heated if you eat too much of this, so don’t eat too much.”
Yan Qingchi just had a sudden craving for food, and he ate some now and was satisfied, so he nodded obediently and said “Yeah”.
“Bo Yan just came down to drink water and talked to me for a while.”
“What did he say?” Jiang Mochen asked him.
“I made a deal with him that I can’t tell others, so I can’t tell you.” Yan Qingchi looked at him, “I just think this kid is quite sensible, which is quite heartbreaking.”
Jiang Mochen said he couldn’t tell him about the conversation with Bo Yan, so he didn’t really care. After all, Bo Yan was still too young, so what the two of them said probably wouldn’t be a big deal.
He put his arms around Yan Qingchi, “Divorce is always not a good thing for children, but after all, it is other people’s household matters, and it is not convenient for us to take care of it.”
“Well, I’m just feeling emotional.”
“So, we have to take this as an example and as a warning.” Jiang Mochen looked at him and said, “We must not divorce.”
Yan Qingchi smiled and said, “After talking for a long time, this is your point.”
“Am I wrong? If we divorce, Qi Qi will probably have to run away from home.”
Yan Qingchi thought about the way Qi Qi pulled the suitcase and hugged the fish tank, and thought it was quite cute. However, “Then I will buy him a dog first, and then Qi Qi can leave with the suitcase, while holding the dog in his right hand, even if he ran away from home, he will still be the coolest cub among these runaway babies.”
Jiang Mochen was amused by his description, “Then I will buy an eagle for Qi Qi, and then I will lead Huang Zuo and You Qingcang, wearing a brocade hat and a mink fur coat, holding a suitcase, he will also look like he is not easy to mess with.”
Yan Qingchi laughed loudly, “You think of him as Erlang Shen, with a sky-defying eagle, a roaring dog, and more.” He stood up, “Let’s go back to the house and sleep, Erlang Shen’s father.”
Jiang Mochen stood up and touched his belly, “Okay, Dad Nezha.”
The next morning, Yan Qingchi sent Qi Qi to school with Bo Yan. Bo Yan was very polite and even thanked him before leaving. After hearing him say thank you, Yan Qingchi invited him to come and play often when he had time.
In the afternoon, Jiang Mochen and Yan Qingchi came to play chess together. The two of them were sitting in the car. Yan Qingchi touched Jiang Mochen. Jiang Mochen looked up and saw Zhou Yixing walking towards him not far away.
“I was really right.” Jiang Mochen squinted at Yan Qingchi.
“Then it’s up to you to deal with him.” Yan Qingchi said warmly.
After a while, Zhou Yixing knocked on Jiang Mochen’s car window. Jiang Mochen rolled the glass down. Seeing Zhou Yixing’s momentary surprise, he smiled and said, “Long time no see.”
“It’s been a while.” Zhou Yixing looked in. He looked around and saw Yan Qingchi in the car, “I thought I had the wrong car.” He looked at Yan Qingchi, “Fortunately, I saw you, so I felt relieved.”
Yan Qingchi felt that his mental quality was really good. Even after seeing Jiang Mochen, he still wanted to tease him.
Seeing this, Jiang Mochen felt a little unhappy and snorted, “Zhou Yixing, even if you are uneducated and incompetent and your family doesn’t value you. But after all, your surname is Zhou, so you can’t be so ignorant that you don’t even know about my marriage last year. You don’t know or has your family regressed so much in the past two years that you are no longer in this circle?”
Zhou Yixing was a little annoyed when he heard this, but he didn’t want to admit that he was pretending to be confused, so he said: “It’s not like you don’t know that I have been abroad before and only came back at the end of last year.”
“So during the past few months when you came back, you didn’t hear anything outside the world and only read the books of sages? You don’t know anything?”
Zhou Yixing was angry and said harshly: “I’m just too lazy to care about things related to you.”
Jiang Mochen smiled, “Now that you know it, you should know what to do.”
Zhou Yixing smiled, he felt a little ridiculous, “Jiang Mochen, what are you talking about? What do you mean? What should I know?”
“Stay away from Yan Qingchi.”
“What age is this? You are still acting like a dictator. What’s wrong with me and Qingchi? If you get married, can’t he have any friends?”
“Just you?” Jiang Mochen smiled contemptuously and turned to look at Yan Qingchi, “Is he your friend?”
Yan Qingchi shook his head, “I don’t know him very well.”
After Yan Qingchi said this, Zhou Yixing looked a little surprised, “Qingchi, why did you say that?”
Yan Qingchi looked at him, “We really don’t know each other very well.”
“I saved you.”
“So I said thank you.”
“Just thank you. That’s it?”
“Then what else do you want?” Yan Qingchi asked him, “Actually, if you didn’t take action that day, I would have almost solved it, but after all you helped me, what else do you want?”
Zhou Yixing was confused by this question.
Jiang Mochen said, “He probably wants you to remember him. Otherwise, our Young Master Zhou’s usual activity area is not here, so he walked around half the city just to get one more look at me in the crowd.”
“It’s a pity that we have already met each other, so we no longer need to be in contact with each other.”
Zhou Yixing was speechless by the chorus between the two of them.
“My intention was for your own good, but I didn’t expect you to be like this.” He looked at Yan Qingchi.
Yan Qingchi smiled slightly, “That was, after all, done by your ex-boyfriend? Current boyfriend? Anyway, Yuan Mingxu once evaluated me as hard-hearted, cold-blooded, cruel, and not a good person anyway. I think what he said is very correct, extremely accurate.”
Zhou Yixing: “…”
“Okay Zhou Yixing.” Jiang Mochen looked at him, “This is the end of the matter. No matter what you want to do, don’t appear in front of us again. If you can’t do it, I believe your Father will be willing to discipline you.”
“Don’t talk about my father. Don’t involve the older generation in our generation’s affairs.”
“If you really don’t want him to get involved, just stay away from our marriage. It was decided by the elders of the two families. They don’t know what you are doing yet. Otherwise, given the character of my parents, do you think you can still stand here properly now? Your father wouldn’t have already talked to you long ago? Do you really think I don’t know anything about Zhou Qiang?”
Zhou Yixing wanted to say something, but he was worried about his own family, so he gritted his teeth and said nothing.
“Still not leaving? Are you waiting to see our family of three being happy?” Jiang Mochen said indifferently.
Zhou Yixing glanced at him and left helplessly.
“So simple?” Yan Qingchi looked at Jiang Mochen.
Jiang Mochen nodded and rolled up the car window halfway, “Zhou Yixing is not a big trouble. There is a Zhou family behind him. The Zhou family is his support and restraint, so he dares not do anything that harms the interests of the Zhou family. He has been pretending not to know you before, so that he can find an excuse for what he is doing now. Otherwise, if other people in his family find out that he knows your identity and is still rushing to you and even has ulterior motives in front of you, he won’t get any good results.”
“Then will he ‘encounter’ me again in the future?”
Jiang Mochen thought for a while, “To be on the safe side, I’ll make a call to his brother. Unlike Wei Xun, Zhou Yixing’s brother, probably has always wished he didn’t have this younger brother.”
After Jiang Mochen finished speaking, he found Zhou Yixing’s brother’s number from the contacts and dialed the number.
