Chapter 47 Uncle

  Chapter 47 Uncle

  Remember in one second, wonderful internet for free!

  Ji Siyu let out a light cough and leaned forward to take a glance at the computer screen. The files on the screen had eye-catching red marks, and the file bag on the desk also had a red stamp on it, probably confidential documents.

  Qiao Yu didn't have any intention of hiding it, and a hint of a smile was always at the corner of his eyes. "Want to see?"

  Ji Siyuan pouted and shook her head.

  Qiao Yu sat still and looked down at the file, gesturing to her, "If you want to see it, then take a look."

  Ji Siyuan knew what was at stake, Qiao Yu believed in her and it was one thing, but she didn't want to cause him trouble, so she shook her head and turned around.

  The next second, she let out a cry of surprise. It turned out that the wall behind Qiao Yu was a book wall, with tall in-wall bookshelves filled with books.

  She happened to put a ladder next to her, and without thinking, she threw the quilt and climbed up with a thud. Qiao Yu was startled and quickly got up to help her hold the ladder.

  She wasn't afraid of falling off, just sitting at the top of the ladder looking at a row of books in front of her with an excited expression. "Qiao Yu, Qiao Yu, I took on another job a few days ago, also a villa, and the owner designed a book wall too, so I had to make it taller. I don't know if I'll have a chance to see it after the renovation is done. Nowadays, many people are not willing to do this kind of work, but I really like it. It was probably two years ago when I did one abroad, but it's different from this one...

  Qiao Yu hadn't seen her so happy in a long time, like a child, smiling slightly as she watched her gesticulate with gleeful abandon.

  Her movements became bigger and bigger, Qiao Yu had been holding his breath in fear that she would fall off, but he didn't want to spoil her fun by telling her to get down, so he just kept looking up at her with his head tilted back, ready to catch her if she fell.

  Fortunately, Ji Siyu stopped talking after a while and pulled out a book to read, then sat down beside him with the quilt, quietly reading.

  Qiao Yu put away the ladder and sat down again. Ji Siyuan tilted her head to look at him, "Am I disturbing you?"

  Qiao Yu shook his head and smiled, "No, I'm almost done."

  Actually, he didn't. He had invested too much time and energy in the resort project because of her, so other projects he was following up on could only be done overtime.

  "Oh." Ji Siyun stopped talking and lowered her head to continue reading the book. She had thought the cover was pretty good, but after flipping through a few pages, she discovered that it contained some incomprehensible diagrams and foreign text in an unknown language.

  She flipped through it quickly like a horse browsing flowers, then casually tossed it aside, propped her hands under her chin and leaned on the table in a daze.

  Qiao Yu looked at the book that had been rejected and then at her, "What's wrong?"

  Ji Siyuan replied weakly, "It doesn't make any sense."

  Qiao Yu glanced at the clock on the wall opposite him, it was almost two o'clock. He leaned back and patted his legs, "Lie down."

  Ji Siyuan hesitated for a moment, then quickly snuggled under the quilt and closed her eyes.

  The advantage of a long chair lies in this, her whole body has support, no need to strain to find the fulcrum.

  She felt Qiao Yu leaning over, as if looking for something on the bookshelf behind him, and soon turned back, muttering to himself in satisfaction, "Ah ~ this one is good. I remember when we were in school, you would fall asleep quickly in this kind of class."

  Then there was the sound of turning pages, and Ji Siyu thought he would tell her a story. Who knew that as soon as she opened her eyes, she saw the cover of the book, as well as a very harmonious, eye-catching, and famous political slogan on it.

  "She retorted, 'Is it because that teacher always reads aloud from the textbook without missing a single word? It's not like I'm the only one sleeping. That teacher is notorious for being a "hypnotist", and his class is widely recognized as a "nap time" - it's not just me who does that!'"

  Qiao Yu ignored her objection and casually flipped over a page before starting to read.

  Ji Siyuan closed her eyes and listened to those familiar yet strange phrases, suddenly finding them quite interesting.

  It was late at night, his voice deliberately slowed down and softened, low and melodious, Ji Siyu gradually relaxed, and indeed had a few sleep-inducing effects.

  Her hand in the quilt suddenly moved, slid open the phone screen relying on memory to find the recording function, and quietly started recording.

  Qiao Yu paused for a moment and suddenly stopped, "In those two years after we broke up, I also couldn't sleep."

  I don't know if Ji Siyuan understood what he was saying, she might have just subconsciously replied, "Uh-huh..."

  "When I couldn't sleep, I would look at my old school textbooks and find many small surprises."

  "Hmm..."

  "Si Xuan?"

  "Hmm..."

  "Have you forgiven me?"

  The room suddenly fell silent, and the two people seemed to be holding their breath. After a long time, Ji Siyu finally closed her eyes and replied, her usually clear and bright voice mixed with helplessness and confusion.

  "I don't know. Joe Yu, I really don't know."

  Qiao Yu patted her comfortingly and said, "Sleep."

  Ji Siyuan soon fell asleep, and when Qiao Yu picked her up to send her back to her room, she unconsciously snuggled into his arms. He lowered his head and smiled at her.

  The next day, Ji Siyu woke up to find herself back in her room. She was stunned for a few seconds before she came to her senses, washed up and went downstairs. Someone had already prepared breakfast with the virtue of a "good wife and mother". A group of people were surrounding the dinner table, praising it nonstop.

  Ji Siyuan had just sat down when someone provoked her.

  Xie Ningchun, unlike his usual sharp tongue, smiled and greeted Ji Siyu, "Quickly try some, Yu Huang, my cousin's cooking skills are particularly great!"

  Ji Siyuan cooperatively lowered her head and started eating.

  Xie Ningchun glanced at Qiao Yu and continued with a hint of meaning, "How is it? Isn't it delicious? Old people always say that to capture a man's heart, you must first capture his stomach. Xuan Huang, I heard you can't cook?"

  Ji Siyuan was originally heavy-headed when getting out of bed, and last night's insomnia made it even worse. Moreover, the other person still had this mocking tone at this moment, she wouldn't cook, what's embarrassing about that?

  Ji Siyun didn't get annoyed, but instead suddenly curled up the corners of her lips and smiled, "If you really think that way, then I'll clearly tell you, your hand position is too high. Why don't you try lowering it a bit?"

  The crowd was stunned, and then, suppressing their laughter, they silently gave a thumbs up.

  On the day of the groundbreaking ceremony, it was bustling and chaotic. Many leaders and media arrived. For such occasions, Ji Siyuan and Wei Xun always kept a safe distance away. They left Xu Bingjun to handle the situation and slipped away separately with great tacit understanding.

  It's rare that Bao Ji's poem wasn't there either. The representative of the Bao family was a man with a similar age to Qiao Yu, also surnamed Bao, and seemed to be familiar with Qiao Yu as well.

  Ji Siyun came out and found that many people in the village had come to watch. She saw a familiar young man in the crowd, so she walked over and talked to him.

  Qiao Yu hastily came looking for Ji Si Xuan when she had just sent the young man away.

  He clutched his car keys in his hand, his tie was disheveled, "My sister is about to give birth, I need to go back to the city to see her."

  Ji Siyuan thought of that woman with similar eyebrows and eyes, smiled, "Go quickly! Finally became an uncle."

  Qiao Yu walked a few steps and turned back to ask, "Want to go together?"

  Ji Siyun looked around and thought, "Forget it, she didn't like me anyway. I have to be careful here too. Maybe next time I'll have a chance to see her again."

  Qiao Yu rushed to the hospital and found that Qiao Le Xi had already given birth. A group of people were gathered around the bedside, staring at a pair of adorable dragon and phoenix twins.

  Jiang Shengzhuo's parents were happily calling his great-grandfather to report, Qiao Bo was probably calling Le Lao to report, and the three old men were excited like three children.

  Qiao Yu smiled and walked over to greet him. Qiao Ye, who was wearing a hospital gown, immediately held out the child in her arms for him to see, "They say that nephews resemble their uncles, do you think he looks like you or me?"

  Qiao Yu lowered his head to look at the boy in his arms, then looked at the girl in Jiang Sheng Zhuo's arms, "They're not even grown up yet, how can you tell?"

  Qiao Yu smiled and looked at his sister leaning on the hospital bed, "How are you?"

  Qiao Lexi had a normal delivery and felt a bit weak but nothing else uncomfortable. She nodded, "It's okay."

  Qiao Yutian was truly happy for her, "Now you're really a mother, don't be reckless and impulsive from now on."

  "Got it!" Qiao Le Xi stuck out her tongue.

  Qiao Yu gently stroked the child's small face with his finger, "Has a name been decided?"

  Jiang Shengzhuo's parents just hung up the phone and looked at Qiao Bo yuan, "Let Grandpa take care of the child!"

  Qiao Bo hastily declined, "That won't do, let the child's great-grandfather get up instead."

  "It was still the great-grandfather of the child who gave it."

  "Get up, grandpa and grandma!"

  "No, no, still..."

  Three seniors kept declining, but it was clear that they were really happy. Even Qiao Baiyuan's face, who was usually serious, was filled with smiles. As for Qiao Ye, he had been looking forward to this day since the day he knew Qiao Le Xi was pregnant.

  Qiao Yu suddenly looked up at Qiao Le Xi and Jiang Sheng Zhuo, the siblings were extremely tacit. After exchanging a glance, Qiao Le Xi and Jiang Sheng Zhuo quickly spoke up, "I think I'll let my older brother do it."

  After finishing speaking, he looked at Qiao Yan and smiled, "Big brother, are you coming or not?"

  Qiao Yan was taken aback and shook his head with a bitter smile, "Forget it, there are so many elders."

  Jiang Shengzhuo's father nodded in agreement, "I also think it's better for you to come out, let's just decide on that."

  Qiao Yan knew their intention and didn't decline.

  A group of people were discussing something in a lively manner, Qiao Yu turned around and saw Wen Shaoqing leaning against the hospital room door wearing white clothes, smiled and walked over, the two of them left the hospital room.

  Qiao Yu hadn't seen him for a long time, "How did you come here?"

  Wen Shaoqing joked, "Come on over and celebrate, after all, I did help out a bit with Jiang Shengzhuo and your sister's matter back then."

  Qiao Yu thought of past events and laughed, "Why didn't you go in?"

  Wen Shaoying suddenly looked at him with a serious face, "Actually, I came looking for you."

  Wen Shaqing and Qiao Yu stood shoulder to shoulder in front of the window, watching the leaves turn yellow and fall. "When new life is born, old life withers away, this is the law of nature, Qiao Yu, winter is coming soon, are you mentally prepared?"

  Qiao Yu suddenly stopped smiling, his eyes cast down, and his face didn't reveal anything. At that time, he had talked to Qiao Yan's attending doctor, who said that if she could get through this winter, there might be another chance in the spring; but if she couldn't get through this winter, it would already be a miracle.

  Wen Shaoying didn't urge him on, and it wasn't until much later that he heard his response.

  "I guess I'll probably never be good at this preparation..."

  Later, Qiao Le Xi was tired, and a group of people left the ward. Jiang's father and mother returned home. Qiao Bo Yuan stood in front of the ward door and talked to Qiao Ye for a while before leaving.

  Qiao Yu stood a few steps away, waiting for Qiao Ye to escort him back to the ward. He seemed tense about the name, "What do you think is better, two characters or three?"

  Qiao Yu slowed down two steps, lowered his head and looked at Qiao Ye diagonally in front of him. He suddenly reached out to hold Qiao Ye's increasingly thin hand, "Brother, I still remember the way you held my hand when we went to school together as kids."

  Qiao Yan was startled, after growing up this younger brother rarely stuck to him like that, he quickly laughed, "Yes, at that time your hands were still so small, in the blink of an eye we all grew up, and even marriage and childbirth were let that little girl take precedence."

  Qiao Yu didn't want to stir up his sadness, so he smiled and lowered his head to cover up the emotions in his eyes.
