Chapter 85 Sticky Bean Bun

Qijiang stood nervously in the room without turning on the light.He looked out of the dark window, the wind was blowing the fallen leaves in the yard, dragging them around, making strange noises, as if many invisible feet were walking on the ground.

I became more and more nervous, afraid that someone would come into the house at any time and rummaged through things, so I quickly loaded the gun and stuffed it into the bag, and then carried the bag next to my body, and got into the bed without moving, but my spirit was highly concentrated and I didn't feel sleepy at all. .

He had a strong premonition that something unexpected would happen at night, and he had to be prepared at all times.

Not half an hour later, there was the sound of small steps at the door, and his heart suddenly rose to his throat: Sure enough, it's here!
However, it was her mother's voice that rang out: "Jiang'er, I was cleaning the brushes on the table for your father in the study, and I don't know who called. They only said they were looking for you, and refused to disclose anything else. Now I haven't hung up yet, go and answer it quickly, don't make people wait for a long time."

He quickly got up from the bed and opened the door, helped her into the room and sat down, poured a cup of tea neatly.

"Mom, are you sure the call is for me? Was it a girl?"

Qijiang was thinking, the last time his younger brother asked He Shi'an to help him out on an appointment.If it is the same this time, it is called a tacit understanding: the two brothers have not seen each other for a few days, and they have accumulated a lot of words, so they can find a quiet place to chat at night.

Unexpectedly, the eldest wife shook her head while drinking tea: "It's a man calling. I wonder if he is your classmate or friend."

He thought: Could it be that my younger brother hit me?It's too reckless, what if the third wife and elder brother catch him?Could he be so impulsive because of the broken relationship?

Qi Jiang took a coat and put it on, covering his bag.As he walked, he watched vigilantly for anyone hiding nearby.It was windy at night, the servants all went into their respective houses, and he was the only one walking around in the huge yard.

When he arrived at the door of his father's study, he looked in and saw that there was no one inside.The receiver of the phone was placed on the desk, and when I picked it up, I could still hear the slight breathing sound on the other end. It seemed that the other party hadn't hung up yet.

"Hi, I'm Gu Qijiang, may I ask who you are?"

But there was a familiar girl's voice on the other end of the phone: "Do you remember me? I'll come to your door later."

A false alarm, this mysterious caller turned out to be He Shi'an.But just to be cautious, she dialed the number and asked the guard to find the person who answered the phone.

In order to prevent others from eavesdropping, he said "yes" hastily and hung up the phone.After sending his mother back to the room to rest, Qi Jiang took advantage of the darkness and walked all the way to the gate.

Soon, he heard the sound of car horns from far to near, and the familiar car came and parked beside the stone lion at the entrance of the mansion.

He Shi'an got out of the car, smiled and waved to him: "Get in the car, I have something to talk to you on the way."

Qi Jiang walked up to her and didn't rush to get in the car, but asked tentatively: "Miss He, did the third brother ask you to come?"

She gave him a blank look, "What time is it, and I still have to stick to these details. I came to find you myself. You don't know how much weight Qilan has lost after returning from Tianjin. If this continues, he may be seriously ill Already!"

She told him about her visit to Lin Yitang in the hospital, and at the same time expressed her emotion: "I am very envious of Lin Mi, two outstanding boys love her so much and dote on her. They are going to get married soon, and why don't they give up?" Can occupy Qilan's heart all the time."

Hearing her helplessness and loss in her tone, Qi Jiang wanted to comfort him with the fact that he had just experienced the pain of being misunderstood by Zhu Juanjuan.

"Don't envy Ms. Lin, she may not feel happy in her heart. No matter how much two men love her, no matter how much she misses their respective goodness, she can only choose one as her partner in the end."

He Shi'an doesn't think so.She bowed her head and thought for a moment, then said what worried her most. "I'm afraid that she won't let go and has been dragging your brother around, and Lin Yitang is not easy to mess with. You don't know what kind of chess he is playing in his heart, even though he is lying in bed to recover from his injuries."

Qijiang thinks that her analysis is reasonable, and he must explain to his brother the harm of entanglement as soon as possible, so as to avoid irreparable consequences.

"Tell me where Qilan teaches, and I need to know where he lives. I'm going now."

"Let's go by car. I also want to find him at night. It's not convenient to talk at school during the day."

Qi Jiang stayed where he was, "I want Ms. He to take her there in person, otherwise I won't be able to remember the route, and I'll have to trouble you next time."

He Shi'an was in trouble.She also brought a big bag of snacks in the car: if she was walking, who would carry it for her?
"It's inconvenient for me to walk with so many things. Can I call the guards?"

He shook his head resolutely: "You can't bring outsiders. I'll get your things and take you home. My brother's whereabouts are a secret. If it gets out, his life will be in danger again."

She was stunned after hearing this, with confusion and incomprehension appearing on her face: "Isn't this too exaggerated?"

In order for her to understand and support her decision, Qijiang immediately described the thrilling story of her younger brother jumping into the lake to flee for his life. She was so frightened that her eyes widened and she covered her mouth for a long time, unable to speak.

In He Shi'an's heart, Gu Qilan's safety is always the first.So she obediently made a compromise, gritted her teeth and took the heavy snacks from the car to Qi Jiang, sent the guards to drive back, and followed him on foot.

Qi Jiang didn't notice what was in his hand at first.He paid attention to the route as he walked, remembering the characteristic storefronts and trees that lined the street.

The sweet aroma of pastries entered his nose along the evening wind.The bursts of warm aroma kept teasing him, arousing the greed deep in his taste buds, and making him shout in his heart: I can't stand it!
In front of girls, Qi Jiang would not easily reveal his senior foodie side.Even though the gluttonous insects kept rushing, he was embarrassed to bend down and say to her: "What kind of snacks are you bringing tonight? It's so delicious, can I have a taste?"

He Shi'an is understanding.She saw him keep changing the paper bag containing the snacks in both hands, and occasionally couldn't help smelling the lingering fragrance on his hands, so she guessed that he was fascinated by this magical snack.

This is not an ordinary thing, it is a sticky bean bun that she made successfully with her own hands under the guidance of the cook at home.I heard from grandma that the best way to impress a boy you love is to make him a delicacy that represents your heart.After much deliberation, she remembered seeing sticky bean buns in Gu Qilan's schoolbag when she was in school, so she asked a master to practice seriously.

The number of failures in the early stage is too many to remember.For the pampered lady, making sticky bean buns is quite a physical exercise.Not only do you have to try every step, but you have to try every failed bean bun patiently.

After practicing for more than a month, she finally figured out how to make sticky bean buns.Tonight's sticky bean buns were affirmed by the master, and she was very happy.While it is fresh, I want to give it to him to taste.If he likes it, she is willing to make a plate every day.

"Brother, my dim sum is quite heavy, are you tired holding your hands?"

He thought it was okay, so he said simply: "I'm not tired. Is school coming soon?"

She stretched her neck to look at the intersection, "Well, just turn left ten meters ahead. Give me the snack."

Qijiang was a little bit reluctant, and he couldn't ask her for it, so he gave her the paper bag.

Seeing that Qijiang wanted to eat so much, she immediately had a conflict: only give it to her younger brother, not to her older brother, it really doesn't make sense.

She thought about it, and decided to give one to her brother to taste: the power of a group of relatives and friends should not be underestimated, why not make a personal favor first.
