After some beneficial activities for body and mind in the evening, Jiang Lan’s sleep quality was exceptionally good. After waking up from an all-night sleep, he was still full of energy and radiant.
On the contrary, Ying Qiao, who woke up with him, had a slightly dark complexion and was in a very depressed mood.
Jiang Lan didn’t notice his expression, so he said good morning and went to the living room in his slippers. Suan Ni and Jiao Tu were already up, one was counting his gems in the luxurious aquarium, and the other was basking in the sun on a chair on the balcony.
Seeing him come out, Suan Ni jumped off the chair and ran towards him, tilting his head and asking, “Are we going out to eat today or ordering takeout?”
He poked his head towards the second bedroom again and asked in confusion, “Why hasn’t my sister-in-law gotten up yet?”
Jiang Lan bent down, picked him up, and tossed him around, smiling, “Let’s go out to eat. Who told you to call him sister-in-law?”
“I thought of it myself!” Suan Ni raised his head proudly and whispered in his ear: “Brother Ying Qiao said that you are not married yet, so we are not allowed to call him sister-in-law, and asked us to call him brother.”
He looked at Jiang Lan with a look of disappointment on his face: “When are you going to get married? If you don’t hurry up, what if our sister-in-law runs away?!”
I finally have a sister-in-law, I have to seize the moment!
Jiang Lan looked at him inexplicably and pinched his cheek flesh: “You know a lot. You must have secretly used your tablet to surf the Internet behind my back, right?”
Suan Ni’s eyes widened and he looked at him: “How could that be?! Don’t talk nonsense!”
After saying that, he jumped out of his arms and ran away guiltily.
Jiang Lan folded his arms, smacked on the word “sister-in-law” and thought about Ying Qiao’s cold face. Then he couldn’t help but laugh secretly.
Although Ying Qiao was only from the snake clan, his appearance and temperament were no less impressive than those of the dragon clan. If we didn’t mention his background, he wouldn’t look out of place in the Dragon Palace. They were indeed born to be a family!
How did humans say that?
If you are not from the same family, you will not enter the same door.
Ying Qiao came out of the bedroom and saw Jiang Lan standing in the middle of the living room, smiling sillily. In this silly smile, Ying Qiao regained a little of the familiar feeling of control. He thought that the little demon was simple and innocent, and he was so open in bed because he followed his nature and was straightforward.
It was not that he was treated as a tool.
After figuring it out, Ying Qiao’s depression dissipated a lot and he talked more.
“What are you laughing about so happily?”
Jiang Lan blurted out: “I’m wondering when to take you back…” He twisted his tongue and barely managed to swallow the word “Dragon Palace”: “… to go back to my hometown to see my family.”
Ying Qiao raised his eyebrows. He thought the relationship between the little monster and his family had broken down long ago.
“I’ve been wanting to ask you for a long time, is your relationship with your family… not that good?”
Although he did not point it out explicitly, his eyes swept over Suan Ni and Jiao Tu.
Jiang Lan silently recalled the character he had established in his heart and tried hard to make up his mind: “Well… we had a little dispute before, but now we have reconciled.”
He was a little nervous but also a little expectant: “Are you willing? I have a lot of family members, but they are all easy to get along with. When I have dealt with my family affairs, I will take you back to meet them.”
If not for his disguise not being revealed yet, he would have long wanted to tell his eldest and fourth brothers that he was in love, and then bring Ying Qiao back to Dragon Palace to show off.
Thinking of the dragon tail on Ying Qiao’s WeChat avatar, Jiang Lan snorted. When he brought Ying Qiao back to the Dragon Palace, he would definitely be surprised. Then he could ask him to change his avatar to his own tail.
My boyfriend has his own dragon son, so there is no need to worship any other dragons!
When Ying Qiao heard him say that his family had many people, he understood. He had heard before that the lion tribe was indeed very fertile, and compared to other races with declining populations, the lion tribe was already prosperous.
“I have no other relatives. From now on, your family will be my family.”
Upon hearing this, Jiang Lan immediately started to make plans. He thought about finding a suitable time. It would be best if Ying Qiao discovered his identity inadvertently. Then he could confess the truth naturally and have a happy ending!
However, before confessing, he had to test Ying Qiao’s attitude towards Taotie.
His eyes rolled around, and he was calculating very quickly, but there was no sign of anything on his face. “Well, I’ll take you back after I take care of things at home.”
“Okay.” Ying Qiao agreed with a smile.
The acting skills honed during this period of time successfully deceived the other party.
They had agreed to go out for breakfast together, but just as he was about to leave, Ying Qiao was called away by his boss’s urgent calls. His leave application was invalid, so Ying Qiao could only leave first with an unhappy look on his face.
Jiang Lan and his brothers had breakfast, bought a new hat, and then went to the hospital.
Jiang Chi stayed in the ward all night. When Jiang Lan went there, the nurses on rounds all praised him for being so sensible and touching.
It was beyond everyone’s expectation that a child could not make a fuss in the hospital and help feed water and change urine bags for patients. The nurses who had been quite disapproving of him yesterday even brought him breakfast this morning.
Of course, Jiang Chi, who was extremely wary, did not accept it.
The nurses just thought that he would not eat food given from strangers, and they specifically told Jiang Lan: Jiang Chi had not eaten anything in the morning and only drank a little water.
Fortunately, Jiang Lan had thought of this earlier and packed some porridge and side dishes on the way here.
Jiang Chi sat motionless beside the bed. Only when Jiang Lan called him did he raise his head and nodded at him.
“The nurse said she brought you breakfast, but you didn’t take it?” Jiang Lan asked, “You don’t eat food given by strangers?”
Jiang Chi nodded.
“It’s right not to eat food given by strangers.”
Jiang Lan placed the packed porridge and side dishes on the bedside table and put the spoon into his hand: “But nurses are not bad people, they have no ill intentions. You are right to be on guard, but you don’t have to reject everyone’s kindness.”
Not sure whether he understood or not, Jiang Lan saw him throw away the spoon, pick up the bowl of porridge and drink it up ravenously.
Jiang Lan wanted to stop him but couldn’t. He could only watch him finish the porridge and the side dishes in just two or three minutes.
Judging from his appearance, he was obviously very hungry.
Jiang Lan sighed silently, feeling that it would be a long and arduous journey to straighten out this brat.
Jiang Chi wiped his mouth and looked at him, not very skillfully organizing his words: “When, can I go to your house to work?”
This was the longest sentence he had ever said to Jiang Lan, but his pronunciation was awkward and his voice was hoarse.
The so-called work was originally a lie Jiang Lan made up to coax him, but he still remembered it. Jiang Lan thought about it and knew that if he didn’t do it as he said yesterday, he would definitely be upset again, so he said, “Let’s do it today. You come home with me first, clean up and get familiar with the road. There’s not much housework. After you finish your housework, you can come to the hospital.”
Jiang Chi nodded: “Okay.”
