Chapter 609: Do You Not Like Me Anymore
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Regarding the engagement, the Huang family did not have any requirements for Zhang Kun and Li Xu.
However, Zhang Kun and Li Xu had given Huang Weiwei enough face.
The parents of both parties were quite satisfied with the engagement banquet, and they were already discussing the marriage.
Ji Zixuan, on the other hand, was calm and composed. He could even offer his opinion when Li Xu and Mother Huang asked for his opinion.
Huang Weiwei was a shy girl. Her face turned red when she heard her parents discussing their relationship.
Taking advantage of the gap, she asked about Yuanyuan and changed the topic, Yuanyuan and Mucheng should be getting engaged soon, right?”
Ji Yuanyuan’s hand that was holding the cup trembled, and her expression was a little unnatural.
Speaking of which, ever since that day, the atmosphere between her and Qin Mucheng had become a little awkward.
It had been almost a month, and the two of them had only seen each other twice.
Once, Qin Mucheng was instructed by Cheng Shuqin to send Qin Junshan out to fish. The other time, when she returned home at night, she found Qin Mucheng downstairs.
She hid and wanted to see if Qin Mucheng would go upstairs to look for her.
However, Qin Mucheng did not go upstairs at all. He sat in the car for a while before leaving.
Speaking of which, the two of them had only met once.
“Soon, soon. Doing it this year will be a little rushed. The initial plan is to arrange it in the first half of next year.” Li Xu said with a smile.
The topic shifted to Ji Yuanyuan and Qin Mucheng, but she was not embarra.s.sed at all. She answered the elders’ questions openly.
The engagement ceremony only ended at one in the afternoon. After sending off his family and friends, Ji Yuanyuan whispered to Ji Zi’ang, “I have something to do and have to go first. You can help Dad and Mom clean up the mess.”
Ji Zi’ang waved his hand, “You’re not needed anymore. Go do what you need to do!”
Ji Yuanyuan nodded and turned to leave.
She hailed a taxi and went straight to Qin Mucheng’s apartment.
It was the weekend today, and she was unsure where Qin Mucheng was.
Therefore, going to the apartment was just a matter of luck.
The security guard at the entrance of the apartment already knew her, so he let her in without hesitation.
Ji Yuanyuan came to the door of Qin Mucheng’s apartment and knocked on it.
After knocking for a long time, no one answered the door. She placed her ear on the door and listened carefully for a while. It was quiet inside.
Ji Yuanyuan looked a little disappointed.
Could he have returned to the old mansion if he’s not here?
With this thought in mind, she turned around and took a taxi to the old mansion. Halfway through, she dropped by the supermarket.
When she went over, Qin Junshan was fishing in the courtyard.
“Girl, why are you here? Come and take a look at my fish pond. I’ve caught a lot recently…”
Ji Yuanyuan interrupted Qin Junshan’s words, “Grandpa, is Brother Mucheng home?”
Qin Junshan choked for a moment before saying, “He’s taking a nap at home. You go first…”
“Grandpa, I’m sorry. I’ll come back later. I’ll go look for Brother Mucheng first I have something urgent to talk to him about!” Ji Yuanyuan left in a hurry.
Qin Junshan retracted his gaze and looked at the fish in the fish pond. He sighed sadly, “Fish, oh fish, only you still remember this old man and are willing to accompany me.”
Xiao Li came in with the bait in her hand. When she heard that, she couldn’t help but say, “Old man, I heard that fish only have seven seconds of memory.” Qin Junshan was old, and his thinking was a little slow.
Therefore, after hearing Xiao Li’s words, the old man did not react for a few seconds, “So…”
Before he could finish asking, he reacted.
“Xiao Li, Xiao Li. I see that you’ve been turned bad by that kid, Zi’ang. I won’t fish anymore, I’ll have a rest.” The old man stood up angrily and left.
Some time ago, Ji Zi’ang had been recuperating at home. When he had nothing to do, he came over and fished in the pond with the old man.
Xiao Li stepped forward and helped the old man put away the fishing rod. She had a helpless smile on her face. She had just spoken too quickly.
Ji Yuanyuan went upstairs and soon arrived at the door of Qin Mucheng’s room.
She did not care if Qin Mucheng was on his lunch break or not and simply raised her hand to knock on the door.
She had something to say to Qin Mucheng now.
She wanted to say it now, she couldn’t wait any longer.
After knocking three or four times, the door opened from the inside.
Qin Mucheng appeared at the door with a calm expression and sleepy eyes.
However, Qin Mucheng’s eyes widened when he saw Ji Yuanyuan, “You… How did you…”
“Of course, I have to come. I’m not as big-hearted as you. I can’t believe you can still fall asleep at this time.” Ji Yuanyuan took a step forward and approached Qin Mucheng.
Qin Mucheng subconsciously took a step back, his expression a little surprised “When?”
Ji Yuanyuan stepped forward again. This time, she did not give Qin Mucheng any chance to retreat. She jumped up and hung onto Qin Mucheng’s body.
Qin Mucheng did not know what to do for a moment, but he quickly reached out to hold Ji Yuanyuan’s b.u.t.t.
A moment later, he finally came back to his senses. She dragged Ji Yuanyuan’s b.u.t.t with one hand and hurriedly closed the door of the room with the other.
“Come down!” He closed the door and whispered.
Ji Yuanyuan hugged him tightly and shook her head.
Qin Mucheng felt a little helpless, “What’s wrong?”
“Qin Mucheng, are you frightened by me?” Ji Yuanyuan leaned on Qin
Mucheng’s shoulder and asked in a low and serious voice, “Why didn’t you look for me after so many days? Don’t you miss me at all?”
After asking these few questions, she looked up from Qin Mucheng’s shoulder and met his eyes, “Do you not like me anymore?”
Qin Mucheng weighed Ji Yuanyuan’s head and said hoa.r.s.ely, “If I didn’t miss you, why would I come downstairs every night? Why would I hide from you if I didn’t like you?”
Ji Yuanyuan really could not understand Qin Mucheng’s thoughts, “If you like me, why are you avoiding me? If you like me, shouldn’t you want me to be with you all the time?”
Qin Mucheng did not say anything. He closed his eyes, gritted his teeth, and loosened his grip, allowing Ji Yuanyuan’s body to fall.
‘Can you feel it?” Qin Mucheng asked.
Ji Yuanyuan’s face was a little red, but she still mustered her courage and looked straight at Qin Mucheng, “I feel it. However, just because you have a reaction to me doesn’t mean that you still like me…Oh…”
Qin Mucheng did not give Ji Yuanyuan a chance to speak. He went forward and blocked Ji Yuanyuan’s mouth.
He carried her and took a few steps forward to the door.
He pressed Ji Yuanyuan against the door.
After a long time, Qin Mucheng let go of Ji Yuanyuan.
“It’s because I like you that I… If I didn’t hide from you, I was really afraid that I wouldn’t be able to hold back and hurt you. Especially that day when you said you wanted a child…”
Qin Mucheng reached out and touched Ji Yuanyuan’s ear, “You’re still a child
How can you give birth to a child? I’m older than you.. I can’t be insensible, do you understand?”
