Ji Qinglan: ...

What topic would she find next? Xiao Yi knew how to talk about something until it died.

Fortunately, Xiao Yi knew about the grudge between Ji Qinglan and the Xiang family, and did not hide anything about Xiang Guo's case. He took the initiative to mention Xiang Guo's case without involving any leaks. Moreover, even if he didn't say it, the matter would soon spread in the county.

"We chased him to the sea that night and saw him jump off the boat with our own eyes."

That night, it was a dark and windy night. Xiang Guo fled to the sea and his whereabouts disappeared.

Ji Qinglan had already learned about Xiang Guonan's escape from Li Miaofang, and at that time Ji Qinglan had predicted that Xiang Guonan would succeed.

It was her regret that Xiang Guo could not be brought to justice.

However, she was not disappointed. She was already very satisfied with such an ending in her life. She only wished that Xiangguo would never set foot on this land again in her life.

Ji Qinglan asked: "Can we still catch him?"

Xiao Yi shook his head: "It's difficult. I have been looking for him there for half a month and have not found any trace of him. If he didn't drown, he must have hidden himself."

There are many people who have sneaked in, and as long as they have Hong Kong citizenship, it will be difficult to catch them.

"Thank you for your hard work. I didn't expect Xiang Guo to have the ability to get there." Ji Qinglan said.

Xiao Yi also nodded, and was surprised at Xiang Guo's ability. Along the way, they busted a smuggling gang and arrested many people.

"What are your plans now? Do you want to go back?" Xiao Yi asked Ji Qinglan.

Deep down in his heart, he vaguely understood why Ji Qinglan was reluctant to go back. Now that things have settled, she should be willing to go back!

Ji Qinglan looked at him unexpectedly and lowered her head slightly. It turned out that she insisted on staying here. Uncle Peng and Xiao Yi both guessed the reason.

"Let's stay here for now! I don't want to go back and cause trouble for Uncle Peng. Besides, I think the country needs to develop. We can't let the educated youth stay in the countryside forever. There will always be a time to go back."

Although there is no clue about this matter at the moment, Ji Qinglan is not panicked at all.

In my previous life, the college entrance examination was resumed three years later, and the spring breeze of reform blew across the country. That was the real good time for development, and if you stood on the wind, even a pig could fly.

Xiao Yi looked at her deeply, he didn't expect her to have such foresight.

Ji Qinglan haha, he was pretending without realizing it.

"Just let me know if you need any help. Uncle Peng asked me to take care of you, and I wasn't able to help at all."

Somehow, Xiao Yi brought up the past again. When he left the capital, Uncle Peng asked him to take care of Ji Qinglan, but in the end...

It was Ji Qinglan who helped him find the treasure and risked his life to help them catch the fugitive.

A woman like her can live well no matter where she is.

"Thank you very much, you helped me a lot." Ji Qinglan smiled.

The atmosphere fell into silence again. Xiao Yi looked at Ji Qinglan's beautiful face and finally said what he had been holding in his heart: "I wonder what Ji Zhiqing's plans are for the future?"

"Ah?" Ji Qinglan was stunned for a moment, staring at Xiao Yi blankly, and forgot to answer for a moment.

What are you going to do? She said she won’t go back! She wants to prepare for the college entrance examination here.

A blush appeared on his bronze skin. Xiao Yi mustered up his courage and raised his voice: "I mean, what are Ji Zhiqing's plans for his life and what are his requirements for his partner?"

"Cough cough cough!" Ji Qinglan choked on the tea.

The tea was scalding, and Xiao Yi's words burned his heart.

Xiao Yi hurriedly handed his handkerchief to Ji Qinglan to wipe it. Ji Qinglan took it and said uncomfortably: "Thank you!"

He lowered his head and wiped it randomly, but his face had actually turned red.

Xiao Yi, who had opened up the conversation, continued in one go: "Since the first time I saw you, I felt that you were very special, brave, and calm; every time I met you afterwards, you gave me a different feeling, independent, autonomous, and strong..."

"Comrade Xiao, please stop talking." Ji Qinglan suddenly interrupted him, looking very uncomfortable, and he didn't know where to put his hand holding the handkerchief.

If Xiao Yi continued to praise her like this, she would be the perfect female representative of the decathlon.

She really didn't expect Xiao Yi to have such thoughts about her.

"Mountain birds and fish have different paths. We are different. You have a good family background and a bright future, while I am divorced and have children..."

Xiao Yi's eyes had become gentle, his voice low, and his gaze on Ye had not changed: "If Ji Zhiqing thinks this way, then I am even more ashamed; I am even less worthy of Ji Zhiqing. My parents died young, my brother died of illness, my nephew is raised under my name, and my eldest sister has been married for many years... I am not worthy of Ji Zhiqing."

“That’s not what I meant.” Ji Qinglan was going crazy. Was he trying to compete with her in misery?

Xiao Yi laughed again, his eyes becoming more gentle and tender: "I went on a business trip to the south this time, and every day I thought about you and your son. I didn't understand why. It wasn't until I met you and Xin Cheng that I realized that this is happiness. I hope to have a warm home, a lover, and children. I wonder if Ji Zhiqing can give me a chance to include me in your lives."

Ji Qinglan...

She has already planned the rest of her life: no marriage, no man, just wanting to be alone.

Xiao Yi's sudden confession made her confused. She didn't hate Xiao Yi, but she had never thought of starting a family with him.

In the end, Ji Qinglan chose to tell the truth, but before she could open her mouth, Xiao Yi seemed to have predicted her rejection and said, "Ji Zhiqing, I know my thoughts are abrupt, but I like you not because of any external reasons, but because of my heart. I hope you will seriously consider it. I will always wait for you."

"I'm leaving first." After saying that, Xiao Yi fled away. It was the first time in his 26 years of life that he confessed his love, and it was also the first time for him to get into a bridal sedan.

Ji Qinglan stood there in a daze. At least let her finish her words. You have a good family and a future, so why do you like a divorced woman like her?

"Mom, why did Uncle Xiao leave?" Ji Xincheng, who was not chasing Xiao Hei, just realized that his Uncle Xiao had left, and hurried over to ask. His castle collapsed, and he still wanted to rebuild the castle with Uncle Xiao.

"Your Uncle Xiao has something to do, so he has to go back first." Ji Qinglan collected his thoughts and explained.

"Oh! Why did he leave so soon without even saying goodbye to me." Ji Xincheng pouted.

Looking at his son, whose mouth was big enough to hold an oil bottle, Ji Qinglan suddenly asked, "Son, do you like Uncle Xiao very much?"

Ji Xincheng nodded.

"I like it very much. I like Uncle Xiao the most."

"Then why do you like Uncle Xiao?" Ji Qinglan had always been puzzled by this. The first time Ji Xincheng met Xiao Yi, he showed unparalleled kindness.

He opened his mouth and shouted 'Baba.'

Ji Xincheng thought hard, looked up at her, and smiled sweetly on his innocent face: "Mom, what's wrong with you? Why is your face so red?"

Ji Qinglan...

"It's the sun. You haven't answered your mother's question yet."

"I just like him! He's very kind. I'm very happy to see Uncle Xiao, just like I like my mother."

This answer, well, doesn't work.

Ji Qinglan looked up at the setting sun and felt worried. The love came too suddenly. How could she refuse it?
