Chapter 53 - Give You a Chocolate
Ke Shao"s plan to test Jiang Qi is still unsuccessful . From Monday to Friday, Jiang Qi will go to work with Ke Yan . And she only has an opportunity when Ke Yan drop by Jiang Qi to walk to the company early in the morning . But it was too early and she"s not that eager to rush over just for the sake of a accidentally "meeting" with Jiang Qi .
On Sat.u.r.day and Sunday, they had their rest days, but most of the time they were together at home . Even when they"re outside, they"re always around each other . Therefore, Ke Shao had no way to start her plan at all .
What can be done about it? Ke Shao was thinking while holding her son sitting on the sofa .
Ke Shao’s son is still less than one year old . He was using his saliva to spit bubbles .
When Ke Shao’s husband came home, he saw his wife and son seem to affix their bodies on the sofa .
" Shao, what"s wrong?" Ke Shao"s husband, w.a.n.g Cha De, is a foreigner . He is a Germany"s citizen, but he grew up in China since he was a child . So, his Chinese language has always been better than his Germany"s .
TLN: the husband name is w.a.n.g - King, Cha - look up, De - Germany… lols
Ke Shao hugged her son and stared at w.a.n.g Cha De . w.a.n.g Cha De immediately come closer and took his son from her wife"s hands .
Ke Shao was satisfied with w.a.n.g Cha De"s fast reaction to please her and drink a mouthful of tea before she unloaded her dilemma to her husband .
" Oh, isn"t this problem easy to solve? Just let the little brother in law go somewhere, and then you are free to test the little brother in law"s boyfriend anytime you choose . "
“ Good idea, but how do you lead Xiao Yan away? Then, I"ll be depending on your arrangements for this matter, okay . "
" Okay . "
After taking over the task a.s.signed to him by Ke Shao, w.a.n.g Cha De gave his mother-in-law a call . " Hey Mom, it’s me Cha De . . . "
Then both of them started to get into details of their secret plan together .
As a result, on this day, Ke Yan received a phone call from Lan Ru Yin before he got off from work . “ Xiao Yan, go home today . "
" What happened?"
" I want to discuss matters regarding Jiang Qi . " " Okay, I will go back later . "
Hanging up his mother"s call, Ke Yan call up Jiang Qi"s number: " I am going home for a while tonight . "
“ Alright, then I will go back by myself . "
" Okay . Remember to eat your dinner . "
" I know, I am not a child . " Jiang Qi smiled .
" Okay, then I hang up first . "
" En . "
Ke Shao watched Ke Yan"s car leave the company before she walked out from the opposite cafe . She plan to wait for Jiang Qi to walk out from the company and then follow closely behind him .
Suddenly Ke Shao"s son, cried in her arms . She lowered her head and try to soothe her baby: " Xiao Ke . . . . don"t cry ah, don"t cry . ”
The baby"s name is w.a.n.g Ke, and his nickname is Xiao Ke . This name was given after w.a.n.g Cha De took four days and four nights to think about it .
Ke Shao was holding her crying son while once in a while looking at the company"s entrance for Jiang Qi .
Jiang Qi came out of the company and planned to take the taxi to go back . Previously he never think it was inconvenience not having a car but today he felt that having a car is much better .
Because right now is after working hours, there were people everywhere waiting for the taxi or bus . Jiang Qi had to wait for a long time until he finally grab a taxi . Jiang Qi opened the door and prepared to go in inside when suddenly he was stopped by someone . Jiang Qi turned around and saw that person was a woman holding a child in her arms .
Jiang Qi asked her in surprised, " What"s the matter?"
“ Can I have this car first?"
" But I have been . . . "
Ke Shao interrupted Jiang Qi’s words halfway .
" I have been waiting for the taxi while holding my son for a long time . "
Jiang Qi looked at the child in Ke Shao"s arms and took a step back . " Okay . Then you can take it first, ba . "
Ke Shao got into the taxi and stop Jiang Qi from closing the door for her . " If you don"t mind we can take the taxi together . When I got home, you can ask the driver to send you back . "
Jiang Qi looked at the crowd around him waiting for taxi and nodded, “ Then, I won"t be polite . "
Jiang Qi got in the taxi, but he was sitting in front pa.s.senger seat while Ke Shao took Xiao Ke to sit behind .
Both of them told their own address and Ke Shao pretended to be surprised when she listened to Jiang Qi’s address .
“ I didn’t expect your house closer than mine . Then, we just do it this way . First, the taxi will send you home, then after only sent me back . ”
" Alright . "
Afterwards, the car remain silence . But after a while, Xiao Ke suddenly cried . Ke Shao was thinking on ways to test Jiang Qi, but now with Xiao Ke crying, she had no energy to think about it .
Listening to the cries of the child seated behind him, Jiang Qi"s heart was uneasy . He don"t know how to treat a child but he don"t like to see the child crying . So, he picked up his briefcase and took a chocolate from inside .
“ Excuse me lady", Jiang Qi called for Ke Shao"s attention and she immediately looked at him in response . Jiang Qi handed the chocolate to her, "Give it to your baby . "
Ke Shao took the chocolate from his hand and give it to her son . The chocolate’s size is just right . It"s not too big for the baby to hold, and it was not so small that the baby can swallow it in his mouth .
Xiao Ke, who got the chocolate, stop crying . He stared at the chocolate’s wrapper with glittering color in his hand and his mouth started to blabber excitedly .
Ke Shao smiled appreciatively . It seems that this Jiang Qi was not as terrible as her mother"s description . He is actually quite considerate .
Jiang Qi’s residence is not very far from the company . Jiang Qi got off from the taxi and gave his own fares . Then, he turned to Ke Shao for farewell: " I am here, goodbye . " After that he waved his hand to the baby:" Goodbye, baby . "
Ke Shao smiled and bid farewell to Jiang Qi . Anyway, they might meet again soon after .
When Ke Shao returned home, Ke Yan was sitting on the sofa, chatting with Lan Ru Yin . When Lan Ru Yin looked at Ke Shao, she used her eyes to enquire - how was it?
Ke Shao nodded to acknowledge everything was done .
Lan Ru Yin unconsciously frowned and Ke Yan notice his mother changes and asked . " What"s wrong?"
“ Nothing, just watching Xiao Ke had fall asleep, and I haven"t even hugged him yet . " Lan Ru Yin immediately remedied the situation .
Ke Yan turned to look at Xiao Ke, and he was stunned for a second when he saw the chocolate in his hand . Then he finally remember why his mother suddenly called him home . Even though they have been chatting for a while, the topic had never crossed Jiang Qi . Now he started to suspect his mother"s motive in calling him back on the basis of to talk about Jiang Qi’s matter .
" Mother, you already had a grandson . Some things you should leave it as it is and don"t worry too much . Or you"ll look older pretty quick . "
Lan Ru Yin touched her face subconsciously, and immediately glared at Ke Yan . She knew Ke Yan"s words obviously to remind her not to disturb Jiang Qi .
At this time, the servant came to tell them the food already been done . Father Ke also come down from upstairs and Lan Ru Yin had to end their conversation .
When they are eating, Lan Ru Yin couldn’t help but to speak: " Husband . . . "
Father Ke: “ En . ”
“ It has been a while since Xiao Yan stayed at home . ”
“ En . ”
Lan Ru Yin has become accustomed to Father Ke lack of words, so she didn"t care of his reaction . "Then, you let Xiao Yan rest at home for a few days, and you go to work in his stead . "
Father Ke take a quick look at Mother Ke: “How could you sacrifice your own husband and chase me to work . Ke Yan, you can continue to work tomorrow . ”
“ En, okay . ”
Lan Ru Yin taking a big bite of her food after being angered by the father and son duo .
And nearly makes herself choked .
Finished eating the meal, Ke Shao took her son Xiao Ke to the lawn, walking for digestion . She was teasing her son when suddenly she heard another footsteps on the gra.s.s . After a while, there was another person standing next to her . Ke Shao looked up and asked her brother . "Is there anything you want to ask me?"
“ Have you seen Jiang Qi?”
" How do you know?" Ke Shao did not deny it, instead she admitted it quite frankly .
“ Mother told me to go home, but never talk about Jiang Qi . Usually mother can’t hold back from talking but today she was rather abnormal . Then, from the moment you came back, the changes was too apparent . Looking at everything, I can predicted what ghost you all have been doing behind my back . ”
“ Sure enough, it"s hard to deceive you . ”
" And . . . " Ke Yan give the chocolate on his hand to Xiao Ke, and took back the one he holds in his hand . "I"ll take this one back . "
“ Hey, you dare to rob your nephew’s chocolate . ”
“ This is what I originally bought . ” Ke Yan replied and waved before he left .
Looking at Ke Yan’s retreating back, Ke Shao smiled and sighed . “ Xiao Ke, your uncle now has become a real man . Already knows how to protect his lover . "
" Ya, ya, ya, ya . " Xiao Ke held the chocolate in his hand while keep making unintelligent sounds .
“ Small thing, you can"t eat this now . Wait until you grow up only can you eat it, okay . ”
Suddenly there was a voice talking from behind . Even without looking back, Ke Shao would recognize that the person is her husband .
Ke Yan stayed at the house for a while and then bid farewell to Lan Ru Yin . Lan Ru Yin reluctantly let him go and said, " Drive carefully going back, and . . . "
“En?”
" It"s nothing . "
" Then I"ll go back first . "
" En . "
Lan Ru Yin looked at Ke Yan’s back and sighed helplessly .
When Ke Yan came home, Jiang Qi was playing games with Mo Lu in the living room . When he saw Ke Yan came back, Jiang Qi dropped the game controller in his hand and went to him .
“ You"ve come back . Come on, go and take a bath first . ”
“ En . ”
"Jiang Qi, we are not done yet . Where are you going . " Mo Lu was exasperated by Jiang Qi .
“ You can ask Ma Tong to accompany you to play . ”
“ Look at you, forgetting your friend when you see your lover . ”
In the bedroom, Jiang Qi took the pajamas for Ke Yan . Ke Yan took the clothes from him but he just put it on the bed . There"s no intention to take a bath at the moment .
Jiang Qi sat next to Ke Yan and asked . " What"s wrong?"
Ke Yan took a chocolate from his pocket and give it to Jiang Qi . Jiang Qi take it in surprised . " Where did you get it? My last chocolate I gave it to a little baby . "
These chocolates were bought by Ke Yan when he was on a business trip . And Jiang Qi likes this type of chocolate the most .
“ I took this chocolate from my nephew, that is, the little baby you have met today . ”
Jiang Qi looked at the chocolate wrapper in dazed, “ Then . . . . ”
“ She is my sister . ”
Jiang Qi’s hand loosened and the chocolate fell on to the bed . Fortunately, Jiang Qi had not open the wrapper . Otherwise, the bed would be dirtied by the chocolate .
“ Then . . . did your sister knows about us . . . . ”
“ She knew . ” Ke Yan watched Jiang Qi"s reaction with interest .
“……”
Jiang Qi was petrified and trying hard to remember if he had committed any faux pas when he met with Ke Yan’s sister today .
