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

Xia Ningqi found an excuse to send Shen Wanping away.

"Alright then, Mom will come see you again when you have time."

"Okay, bye-bye."

Xia Ningqi waved and watched her car leave before returning to her room with a sense of relief.

"Come out, my mom's gone."

The moment the words left his mouth, Qi Nan tumbled out of the closet, sprawling on the floor with his bra cups still attached, looking extremely disheveled.

Xia Ningqi covered her face, stepped forward, and wanted to help Qi Nan.

"Sister, what are you and Brother Nan doing?"

The two froze.

Suddenly, Su Qing's voice came from behind.

Qi Nan was the first to explain, "We weren't doing anything, we were just playing hide-and-seek."

"Hide and seek?" Su Qing tilted her head. "But why are you holding Sister Xia's bra? Is this part of the game too?"

She always came to visit the two of them on weekends, and she came again this week, only to unexpectedly witness this awkward scene.

Qi Nan was speechless, and wanted to explain, but Xia Ningqi grabbed his waist tightly. Her voice was icy, "Aren't you going to let go? Or should I just give it to you and you can take it back to use for rice?"

"Is it really possible?"

"You perverted bastard!"

Xia Ningqi's ears turned red, and she tightened her grip on his waist, causing Qi Nan to gasp.

"I was wrong, I was wrong, I'll pay you back, okay?"

...

"Oh~ so Brother Nan is a pervert."

On the table, Xia Ningqi brought over some fruit. Su Qing swayed her upper body, occasionally doing her homework.

Qi Nan's face turned ashen.

"I really didn't do it, Xiao Qing, you have to believe me, my brother has been wronged."

Su Qing's expression was serious. "It's okay, brother. I understand you. But it's a pity that I'm still young. If you have the patience, you can wait for me to grow up."

What is all this nonsense?!

Qi Nan was on the verge of tears. "Xiao Qing, you're a good person, but I'm really not a pervert."

Xia Ningqi crossed her arms and snorted coldly, "Perverts never admit they're perverts."

"Sister, please don't rub salt into brother's wounds. We should keep the fact that he's a pervert to ourselves."

Qi Nan clenched his teeth and forced a smile. "Xiao Qing, you're actually a pretty nice person."

"Mm," Su Qing nodded, "Because Xiao Qing likes her brother, even if you're a pervert, she still likes you."

"Don't make me suffer even more."

Su Qing chimed in, "And don't worry, I'll keep it a secret when I get back and won't tell Xiaoya."

"Who is Sister Xiaoya?"

In response to Xia Ningqi's question, Su Qing explained, "Sister Xiaoya often plays with Brother Qi Nan, and the rabbit is quite big, no smaller than you, Sister Xia."

"Hehe, I never expected you to like this kind of thing."

Qi Nan: ?

What do you mean by "liking this kind of thing"? Xiao Qing doesn't know the situation, but do you, Xia Ningqi, not know what happened to me just now?

They had no way to express their suffering because they couldn't afford to offend anyone.

The conversation turned to Su Qing, "Qing, why have you been so diligent this week? You've even started doing your homework seriously?"

"Because final exams are coming up soon, and Xiaoqing wants to get first place in the class."

"Not bad, not bad, very ambitious."

Qi Nan patted Su Qing's head encouragingly, "Qing, keep up the good work."

"Yes, Xiao Qing will try her best, but actually I have something else to ask my older brother and sister today."

"What's wrong?"

"Our school is holding a fun sports day on New Year's Day, and we need parents to come and participate, so I want Brother Nan and Sister Xia to come with me."

"A fun sports day?" Xia Ningqi asked, puzzled. "Then why didn't you invite your parents?"

"Because my dad and mom both have tattoos, I'm afraid they'll scare my classmates. Also, they'll definitely bring a lot of buddies with them, and I don't want my classmates to gossip about it afterward."

"Oh, I see..."

Su Qing's bright eyes pleaded, "So, older brothers and sisters, you'll definitely grant Xiao Qing's little request, right?"

So cute...

Xia Ningqi couldn't resist pinching the girl's cheek. "Okay, I can stay with you."

"What about Brother Nan?"

Seeing Qi Nan hesitate, Su Qing pouted, "If Brother Nan doesn't come, Xiao Qing won't be able to keep your secret."

"Alright, alright, I'll go, but in what capacity?"

"Of course, Mom and Dad! Sister Xia and Brother Nan, you can be Xiao Qing's parents for one day only!"

"Isn't this inappropriate?"

Qi Nanguang felt his heart flutter just thinking about becoming Xia Ningqi's other half.

"What's wrong with you two? You two look like a couple."

Xia Ningqi reached out and flicked Su Qing's forehead. "Xiao Qing, don't talk nonsense. Qi Nan and I are not a good match at all."

"Yeah, yeah, I'd be a better match for a sow than her."

Xia Ningqi said coldly, "If you can't speak properly, then shut up!"

Qi Nan, like a child who had made a mistake, weakly replied with an "Oh..."

"But...brothers and sisters, can you bear to see Xiao Qing treated like a child without parents?"

Su Qing clasped her hands together, putting on a pitiful look.

At this moment, Xia Ningqi and her companion had only one thought in their minds: professional players should be banned from participating in the competition.

"Fine, I'll reluctantly accept it for one day."

Seeing Xia Ningqi give in, Su Qing immediately clapped her hands, "Yay, Sister Xia, you're the best!"

Qi Nan interjected, "I haven't even said anything yet..."

The next second, Su Qing whispered in Qi Nan's ear, "Brother Nan, you pervert! You should be content to have a beautiful wife like Sister Xia for just one day. This is the most I can do for you."

So it was for me? That's really something.

Qi Nan slumped over the table, looking as if he had lost his soul.

...

After going to the tavern, Qi Nan retrieved his satchel.

Thankfully, it wasn't lost...

Qi Nan opened his phone and found that Jiang Qin and Qi Yunrui had called him more than a dozen times.

He figured the caller wanted to talk to him about something, so Qi Nan didn't think much of it and called back.

The call was answered quickly.

"Hello, Mother, is there something you need?"

The voice on the other end of the screen was excited: "The Xia family suddenly lifted the sanctions they imposed on our company today, and the company's cash flow has returned to normal."

Qi Nan felt at ease.

It seems Xia Ningqi really didn't lie to him. However, the days ahead will be tough. After all, he will have to be in contact with Xia Ningqi every day, which is tantamount to having a time bomb inside him. Moreover, this bomb will explode at any time if he is in a bad mood, and he doesn't know when he will be blown to smithereens.

"That's good."

Qi Nan said with a melancholy tone, "You should contact me less in the future, so you won't get involved any more."

There was some silence on the other end.

"You brat, what nonsense are you talking about? Everything's fine now, isn't it?"

"It's the present now, but the future is uncertain. After all, serving a ruler is like serving a tiger, and the other party is a tigress with the worst temper. It will probably be difficult to get out unscathed."
