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

Qi Nan was wearing a knitted pajama set, revealing her collarbone, and her lazy eyes held a hint of impatience.

After hearing the sound.

Everyone turned to look in his direction.

The atmosphere was a little awkward.

Qi Nan opened his eyes and glanced around. His mind, which had been a little sleepy, instantly cleared up when he saw Xia Qinghe and his group.

Mom!

Isn't this Old Dong of the Xia family from the original text?

Qi Nanhu's body trembled, and he immediately sensed something was wrong.

Damn it! Why is this stupid plot twist happening again?! Just say you want me dead!

Why did they have to choose such a time to come and acknowledge their relationship with Xia Ningqi? Isn't this just putting themselves in a very difficult position?

"May I ask who this young man is?"

Faced with Xia Qinghe's question, Qi Nan stammered, "I...I'm just an NPC...you guys continue...just pretend I'm invisible..."

After a careful look, Xia Qinghe recognized him as the boy who accompanied Xia Ningqi on the music in the gala video, so he immediately greeted him politely.

"That's not appropriate. Young man, you're so close to my daughter, and you even played guitar for her at the party. I imagine you take good care of her, right? Leave your name now, and my Xia family promises you won't be treated unfairly in the future."

Leave your name?

Even if Qi Nan had a hundred times the courage, he wouldn't dare. If he were to reveal his identity now, his name would probably appear on the dark web's bounty list tomorrow. What difference would that be from courting death?

"No, no, no, I don't need it."

Qi Nan quickly waved his hand, then scurried back to his room in fright, leaning against the door frame, feeling utterly terrified.

It's over, it's over.

He knew the rest of the story better than anyone else: Xia Ningqi would successfully reunite with the Xia family, and then he could just sit and wait to die.

Qi Nan was dejected.

With the Xia family's methods, even if Xia Ningqi doesn't make a move against me, Xia Qinghe and Xia Huai won't let me off the hook; that's pretty much certain.

In despair, Qi Nan called both Qi Yunrui and Jiang Qin.

"dad."

"What's wrong?"

"I want to discuss something with you. You could sell your company shares and cash out, then our whole family could immigrate to a remote African tribe and become local tyrants. What do you think of this idea?"

"If you eat too many mushrooms, you should go to the hospital."

"Beep beep beep".

The phone call was disconnected, and Qi Nan's lips twitched.

It seems the males won't work, so I'll have to find a female.

"mom."

Before Qi Nan could continue speaking, Jiang Qin interrupted, "You brat, eat less wild mushrooms. I heard all the nonsense you were telling your dad."

Damn, I forgot these two sleep in the same bed.

"Mom! I'm serious!"

"Okay, hurry up and get to the hospital. If it gets too bad, call 120. Don't disturb your dad and me while we're doing our business."

The call was disconnected again.

Qi Nan knelt down. So this is what it feels like to be left to fend for yourself? What happened to the maternal and paternal love I was promised? In the end, my life wasn't even as important as them practicing their alt accounts.

I tossed and turned all night.

Qi Nan finally decided to seek refuge with the Azure Dragon Gang first, and also experience a different kind of life, so that even if he couldn't escape this calamity, he wouldn't have any regrets.

.....

half a month later.

Through DNA comparison, Xia Ningqi has confirmed her blood relationship with the Xia family, and overnight she has become a wealthy heiress that everyone envies.

"I don't want to change my name. I'm already used to hearing 'Xia Ningqi' all the time."

"Okay, from now on we'll call you Ningqi."

After a period of adjustment, Xia Ningqi has gradually begun to accept this fact.

She never imagined that her family of origin would be so powerful and influential, not only living in a very luxurious place, but also having servants to take care of her every need.

Although this kind of life is good, it feels very out of place to Xia Ningqi.

"By the way, I'm still worried about my grandma..."

Li Chunhua was overjoyed to learn that Xia Ningqi had been found, but no matter how Xia Ningqi tried to persuade her, she insisted that she did not want to stay in the city and returned to the countryside alone after being discharged from the hospital.

All that was left for Xia Ningqi were a few simple words.

"Grandma was really happy these past few years with you by my side, but now, Grandma hopes you can integrate well into your own family and not let me hinder your relationship with your blood relatives. Because life is long, I hope that even without Grandma, you can live happily every day."

At first, Xia Ningqi couldn't accept such a big change because in her eyes, Li Chunhua was her only close relative. However, the old man insisted that if she didn't return to her original family, he would sever ties with her. This forced Xia Ningqi to try to accept it little by little.

Shen Wanping sat on the sofa, one hand on Xia Ningqi's hand, "Don't worry, Ningqi, we've already arranged for people to help you. Even in the countryside, your grandmother will be well taken care of."

"Thanks..."

Shen Wanping and Xia Ningqi held hands. "Ningqi, you're too polite. I'm your mother. You don't need to be so formal in the future."

"Okay, I understand."

Xia Ningqi felt the warmth.

Shen Wanping has been very kind to her these days, and she has seen it all.

Shen Wanping smiled.

Dignified and noble.

However, in her eyes, Xia Ningqi, her own daughter, was naturally beautiful and prettier than other girls.

"By the way, Mom, can I talk to you about something?"

"What is it? Just tell me."

"I want to move back to my old apartment."

Shen Wanping frowned slightly. "Ningqi, that place is too small; it's not comfortable to live there."

"But it's close to the school, and I'm used to it."

"There are many houses near your school. I can buy you a better one next to the school. There's no need for you to choose the original apartment."

"No, I only want that place."

For some reason, Qi Nan's face appeared in Xia Ningqi's mind. She also didn't know why, but she hadn't seen him at school for a while.

As for the apartment.

She occasionally passed by intentionally a few times, but the door was always closed.

As for WeChat.

There has been no news since that rainy day.

Qi Nan seemed to have vanished into thin air, leaving no trace of his existence.

"Why? Is there really some important reason?"

"Maybe... I don't know..."

Xia Ningqi recalled that day, the bitterness of the pills mixed with the sweetness of the brown sugar water, and even the feeling of her neck being gripped tightly was still vivid in her mind.

That scoundrel! He did something bad and ran away, thinking he was so brave, but he's just a coward.
