If you're not going to marry me, why are you flirting? If you dare run away, I'll sever yo

We arrived at the door.

Jiang Qin grabbed Qi Nan's ear and scolded, "You brat, you may be shameless, but I am! Do you know how much gossip and slander our family will suffer if these rumors spread?"

"Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!"

Qi Nan tilted his head, his expression showing pain.

"Mom, let go! If you keep twisting, my ear is going to fall off. If I really become deaf, I'll never be able to get a wife."

"snort."

Jiang Qin finally let go upon hearing this.

"Tell me, why did you suddenly come back?"

"Of course I miss you."

"Don't give me that," Jiang Qin said, noticing the scar on Qi Nan's palm. "I heard you were a hero, even catching a blade bare-handed."

"As a partner of justice, this is what your son should do. Mother, don't feel too gratified, because it's all thanks to your good teaching."

Jiang Qin rubbed her temples.

"I've always taught you to run away as soon as you encounter danger. When have I ever told you to go up there and die?"

Qi Nan straightened his chest and said, "I'm fine, aren't I? I just suffered some minor injuries, and I even saved a life."

"You were lucky this time, but what about next time? What if you stabbed the heart? Wouldn't that wipe out the Qi family line?" Jiang Qin scolded, pointing at Qi Nan's forehead.

Knowing that she was worried about him, Qi Nan was very touched. After all, he was an orphan and had never experienced maternal love since childhood.

And now, he is...

Inheriting the will of two souls can be considered as making up for his long-standing regret.

However, in the original book, not long afterward, Qi Yunrui's company encountered a severe financial crisis. Coupled with the revenge of the Xia family and the male protagonist Ye Fan, his entire family ended up being destroyed.

"Are you even listening to me, you brat?"

Qi Nan snapped out of his daze, "Yes, yes."

Jiang Qin's face was full of disbelief.

"By the way, you still haven't said why you came back."

"It's nothing, I just wanted to ask you for something."

"What is it?"

"cosmetic."

Jiang Qin frowned. "What do you need this for?"

Could it be that she started paying more attention to her appearance during puberty?

That's not right.

This situation is more like being bent...

Although I have a lot of cosmetics, I can't just give them to Qi Nan like that. I have to find out the reason first.

"I didn't do anything, I just wanted to give some away. Anyway, you've hoarded so much, you probably don't need any more from me."

Jiang Qin put her hands on her hips and questioned seriously, "Give it away? Give it to whom? It can't be that girl named Lin Xiaoxiao again, can it? I've told you so many times, we're a small wealthy family, you can't be someone's lapdog no matter what."

Qi Nan sighed.

"The person I'm sending it to isn't her."

"Who is that?"

"Mother, can't you let your son have some privacy?"

"No, I need to know who the other person is. Unless they are a good match, I will not agree to you two getting to know each other."

Knowing her son's true nature, she, as his biological mother, could only play the role of the bad guy.

Qi Nan leaned close to Jiang Li's ear.

"Actually, the other party is the daughter of the Xia family."

"The Xia family's daughter?"

Jiang Qin asked in confusion, "Which Xia family are you referring to?"

"The Xia family in the capital, the most powerful and influential family."

"But I remember they only have boys in their family. Although there are rumors that they had a lost daughter, that was more than ten years ago, and she still hasn't been found."

Qi Nan stuck out his tongue and made a face. "So I found it."

"Your deception is really cheap."

"Mother, I really didn't lie to you."

Even though Qi Nan said that, Jiang Qin still didn't believe him.

This is normal, after all, even if it were Xia Ningqi herself, she probably wouldn't be able to accept it for a while.

"Fine, if you don't believe me, I'll just buy it myself."

Qi Nan was just looking for convenience.

He doesn't know anything about cosmetics, so it would be best to have some readily available, but if Jiang Qin doesn't give him any, he can buy some himself.

He turned to leave.

Jiang Qin called out to Qi Nan, "You brat, stop right there."

"What is it, Mother? Is there anything else?"

She said irritably, "The company's partner sent me a set of special cosmetics last time. It's in the first drawer of my wardrobe. Go get it yourself."

She really does have a sharp tongue but a soft heart.

Qi Nan hugged Jiang Qin and showered her with praise, "Mother is truly the best! Not only is she the most beautiful woman in the world, but she's also the kindest mother with the heart!"

Jiang Qin was pleased by his flattery, but when she looked at him, she still saw him as someone who was hopeless and incapable of being helped.

"Alright, alright, get lost before I back out, and don't forget to send me a picture after you've hooked up with her."

"Okay."

Qi Nan let go and ran quickly with small, quick steps.

Jiang Qin sighed helplessly.

I should never have spoiled her so much; in the end, I accidentally raised a little devil.

...

night.

Lin Xiaoxiao and Tang Rou came out of a noodle shop next to the pedestrian street.

"Xiaoxiao, I feel that eating at these small shops occasionally is a good experience. There's no need to go to those high-end restaurants every time we go out shopping."

"Yes, I think it tastes good too."

Lin Xiaoxiao's smile had a hint of forcedness.

She finally dressed up and came out, only to find that her living expenses were almost gone. She had originally planned to eat Japanese food, but in the end she compromised and chose a cheap noodle shop.

"Look, there's a bubble tea shop up ahead. It looks like a brand I've never tried before. Shall we go buy a cup?"

"OK."

Lin Xiaoxiao nodded.

She usually drinks Starbucks or high-end brands like Heytea, and rarely drinks off-brand milk tea. However, due to financial constraints, she has to lower her quality of life.

The two walked straight into the milk tea shop.

Just got to the door.

Lin Xiaoxiao, with her sharp eyes, immediately spotted Xia Ningqi busy behind the counter.

I never expected that she would be working part-time here.

That's really stingy.

As Tang Rou stepped into the store, she also noticed Xia Ningqi and immediately burst out laughing, "Isn't this Xia Ningqi? You're actually working here? Did your family not give you any living expenses? That's too pitiful."

Xia Ningqi had just finished packing two takeout drinks when she suddenly saw Lin Xiaoxiao and the other person.

Faced with that sarcastic and mocking tone.

She didn't offer any explanation, but simply said as usual, "Welcome! What would you two like to order?"
