Some netizens understand Jiang Ning’s words, while others think that even during this process, one could help other parents find their children.
Just like how Jiang Ning and Qi Xingzhou used the system to help Fu Fangzhou find his biological parents before, it’s not conflicting.
However, netizens don’t know that Jiang Ning’s words were not just meant for them.
The controversy over the real and fake heir of Jianghong Electronics is so heated, with over a million viewers in the live stream.
Among those million viewers, there are people from all walks of life, and... members of certain departments.
Right after Jiang Ning made that statement, someone immediately ordered a thorough investigation into the identities of Jiang Ning and Qi Xingzhou.
Within half an hour, all information about Jiang Ning and Qi Xingzhou was gathered and placed in front of a certain man.
After the reunion banquet ended, Jiang Ning sent a message to Fu Fangzhou, and then took advantage of no one noticing to sneak away with Qi Xingzhou.
The two are already seasoned at dodging cameras, and only when they got back to the car did the media trying to photograph them realize they couldn’t find them.
After returning to Beijing from M City, Qi Xingzhou was taken to the company by his father and older brother to continue working, but today he finally managed to take time off to accompany Jiang Ning to this banquet. He refused to continue working no matter what.
Jiang Ning laughed, "If your brother calls later, I won’t help you."
Lately, Qi Xingzhou has sneaked out to see Jiang Ning several times after handling work, even after being caught by Qi Chen. Initially, Qi Chen called him, but later, from experience, he started texting Jiang Ning.
Jiang Ning always found Qi Chen’s messages amusing and frustrating.
Other company bosses are all competitive, but with Qi Xingzhou, he constantly abandons his employees to secretly run away.
Qi Xingzhou isn’t afraid at all. He learned all about running the company from Qi Chen and Qi Jingshan, but he has no interest in managing the company, hence the resistance.
If it weren’t for his brother and father, Qi Xingzhou wouldn’t go for even a day.
He held Jiang Ning’s hand and suddenly said, "Let’s go out and travel?"
Jiang Ning casually replied, "Where do you want to go?"
"Anywhere really, as long as it’s not Beijing." Qi Xingzhou thought about it and the more he thought, the more feasible the idea seemed, "The world is so big, we can travel everywhere. We could go to Antarctica to see penguins, the Arctic to see polar bears, Greenland Island to see the aurora, and visit all the countries in Europe."
"If you don’t want to travel abroad, we can just explore locally, live in different cities, move on if we dislike one, or stay a few months, even half a year if we like it..."
The more Qi Xingzhou talked, the more feasible it seemed.
He originally disliked going out, as seen in his routine lifestyle.
The Qi Family – company – hang out with Jiang Ning – back to the Qi Family.
That’s been Qi Xingzhou’s recent life trajectory.
After finishing speaking, he leaned close to Jiang Ning, seeking her approval, "How about it?"
Seeing his enlarged handsome face approach, Jiang Ning’s heart fluttered, "Let me think... It’s certainly not possible right now."
"Then we’ll wait until you’re not busy!" Qi Xingzhou instantly responded eagerly, "I have time anytime, we can go anytime."
He clearly hasn’t placed any importance on the family company.
Jiang Ning: ...Are you sure your father and brother know this?
Looking at Qi Xingzhou, who was very reluctant to go to the company, Jiang Ning thought for a moment and directed Qi Xingzhou to drive them to go hiking.
There’s a temple on a mountain near Capital City, said to be very effective, and it’s a popular weekend getaway spot.
It’s only 12:30 in the afternoon, and driving over takes a bit more than an hour, just in time for a hike.
Upon hearing Jiang Ning’s plan, Qi Xingzhou immediately supported it, feeling her short getaway idea was brilliant.
The two parked the car at the foot of the mountain, preparing to walk up.
Previously, when playing in M City, Jiang Ning was recognized by many passersby, so this time, she did a bit of simple disguise for herself and Qi Xingzhou.
Both being physically fit, the hour-long hike was easy for them.
The mountain temple had a thriving incense burning, as they toured, burning incense like other tourists, looking sincerely devout.
The location of Qinshan Temple, despite being at the mountaintop, has a large architectural footprint.
Jiang Ning held Qi Xingzhou’s hand as they leisurely strolled around and even saw a lush, large banyan tree in the back courtyard covered with prayer ribbons.
Many tourists were standing on tiptoe beneath the banyan tree, tying written wishes onto the branches.
Seeing this, Jiang Ning shook Qi Xingzhou’s hand, "We’re already here; let’s write one too."
Jiang Ning and Qi Xingzhou each took a red ribbon.
While holding the pen, she thought for a moment, then wrote down the words: ’Health and safety.’
After she finished writing, she turned to find Qi Xingzhou had already finished.
"So fast? Did you write anything?" Jiang Ning was somewhat skeptical.
"I did." Qi Xingzhou’s gaze was on Jiang Ning, his hat brim shielding the tenderness in his eyes.
Qi Xingzhou carefully tied the red ribbon high on the branch.
Jiang Ning never thought Qi Xingzhou would really have an unfulfilled wish.
She was curious, really wanting to ask, but held back.
After leaving the wishing tree, they wandered around a bit more, also having a bowl of surprisingly tasty vegetarian noodles in the canteen.
Before they left, Jiang Ning headed to the restroom, asking Qi Xingzhou to wait by the exit for a moment.
Just two minutes after Jiang Ning left, two young, attractive girls noticed Qi Xingzhou.
Even with a hat and mask, his stature and demeanor clearly signaled he was a top-tier handsome guy.
Even if he wasn’t truly handsome, his height added points. Tʜe source of this ᴄontent ɪs Nov3lFɪre.ɴet
The two blushing walked up to Qi Xingzhou, one girl shyly asked, "Hi, can... can I add you on WeChat?"
Qi Xingzhou lowered his gaze slightly, "I’m sorry, I have a girlfriend."
"Sorry! Sorry!" The two girls’ faces flushed red, like startled rabbits, they ran off.
"Ah, Jiajia, I’ve embarrassed myself. First time asking someone for their WeChat, turns out he’s already taken."
"Haha, it’s okay. Next one will be even cuter!" The girl named Jiajia was very optimistic, "Look on the bright side, this guy is definitely loyal to his girlfriend. Handsome and faithful, not bad!"
After running a little distance, they couldn’t help but glance back at the handsome guy, a rare tall and handsome man indeed.
Then they saw the previously solitary and cool boy suddenly walk quickly to a similarly masked and hatted girl.
The girl had just come out of the restroom wiping her hands and exuded pleasantness despite her concealed face.
When the boy approached, he took the tissue from her hands, meticulously wiping off the droplets on her hands then kissed her hand as if giving himself a small reward.
With fingers intertwined, even when throwing disposable tissues he didn’t let go of the girl’s hand.
Though his external appearance suggests he’s a tall and cool person, the actions he showed in front of the girl felt unexpectedly clingy, akin to a loyal large dog.
As the couple walked away hand in hand, Jiajia wistfully retracted her gaze, saying, "No wonder he didn’t provide WeChat, look at how fond he is of his girlfriend."
