Chapter 273: 191 Wuye assists; stabs with a knife, making him die thoroughly.

At dusk, the sky had turned a misty blue, with the biting north wind suggesting snow might be on its way.

The Jiang Family had already lit the lamps, and the old lady was holding Qi Zeyan's hand, sizing him up incessantly, "You really haven't cto seein such a long time! If it wasn't for your grandfather sending you to deliver something, I think you wouldn't want to visit this old lady at all.” Qi Zeyan cleared his throat lightly, "The company has been quite busy recently, I'll visit you more often in the future." "Being busy is good, young people should be busy." "Qiqi, why don't you stay for dinner at our house tonight and keep grandma company?" The old lady was very fond of Qi Zeyan, mainly because his temperament was different from those two young scamps at home, more endearing.

However, every tQi Zeyan cover, and she called him 'Qiqi' inadvertently, he always felt like an attempt to show off had failed, and he was instantly demoted back to his original state.

Actually, when he was around fifteen or sixteen years old, the elders also avoided calling him by his childhood nickname; it was just that they would easily forget when they were happy.

"Hmm, I'll stay and have dinner with you tonight, um..." Qi Zeyan looked around, "Are Yanting and Xiaowu not here?" "Yanting and Jiangjiang went out to eat, and Xiaowu along with Wanwan are meeting friends; none of them are at home. Lucky you came, otherwise the house would feel quite desolate." The old lady was naturally pleased when she heard he would stay for dinner, and Fan Mingyu even said she would stir-fry a couple of dishes he liked.

Aside from delivering a present for his grandfather, Qi Zeyan was also seeking refuge today. Ever since he graduated, his family had been constantly dropping hints and reminding him that it was tto think about marriage, especially during the New Year.

Even distant relatives he wasn't close to or straight-up didn't recognize, when bringing gifts before the New Year, would casually ask: "Do you have a partner yet?" If the answer was yes, the follow-up would be, “How old is she, what does she do, how long have you two been dating?" A triple-hitter for the soul! If the answer was no, immediately someone would jump in with, "I know a nice girl..." He really didn't want to go back. Staying at the Jiang's was also a refuge. After dinner, he chatted with the old lady for a while. None of the Jiang brothers had returned, and since Yanting was with the kids, wherever he went probably wasn't exciting; Qi Zeyan directly called Jiang Jinsang.

"Hey-where are you at?" "Over at the fourth brother's club." "How many people are there?" "Three, and there's also Wanwan's best friend." "Is it okay forto cover?" Qi Zeyan was dead set against going home, to avoid his family's old man pressuring him in all sorts of ways to get married. The funniest thing was, a few days back in their neighborhood, someone's dog had puppies, and he even cover to tell him about it.

"Look, even the dogs have found partners and had babies, when are you going to handle your affairs..." Jiang Jinsang watched the two people huddled together picking songs, “I'll ask them.” "Sure, I'll wait for you." "Wanwan, Zeyan wants to cover, is that okay with you?" Although it was after work hours and their private time, very few would be willing to go out and bump into their boss. Qi Zeyan also knew Wanwan's best friend was none other than Ruan Mengxi and had specifically asked an additional question.

He was still a very considerate boss; it was normal for her not to want to see him.

Without thinking, Tang Wan glanced at Ruan Mengxi, "What do you think?" "Why look at me?" Ruan Mengxi thought to herself desperately, but with Jiang Jinsang there, she couldn't show too much direct interest.

"Then let him cover, it's just the three of us anyway, not much fun." Tang Wan said with a smile.

Ruan Mengxi just wanted to hug Tang Wan and give her a big "smack" of a kiss; she did not make friends with her for nothing.

It was then that Jiang Jinsang replied to Qi Zeyan.

** Approximately half an hour later...

Qi Zeyan appeared at the private room door, pushed it open, and saw Ruan Mengxi singing a currently popular love song; her voice was nice, and her singing pleasant.

"Boss-" Ruan Mengxi coughed, and even though she was bold, seeing the person she liked, she still felt a bit shy.

"No need to call'boss' after work, keep singing your song." Qi Zeyan said and then sat down on a double sofa, pouring himself half a glass of lemon water. He was tactful and knew that with Jiang Jinsang on the other side forming a pair, he wouldn't intrude. Ruan Mengxi didn't continue singing but sat to one side and selected several more songs.

"How cyou have tto cout today? Isn't the company busy?" Jiang Jinsang turned his head to ask.

"We're basically on holiday now. Last night Xie Tongtong cto our house to deliver the the Xie Corporation's New Year's party invitation, and my grandfather almost had her stay the night. You know how exaggerated that is!" Qi Zeyan shook his head and took a large sip from his glass. "Dressed up like that for a holiday?" Underneath his down jacket, he wore a three-piece suit, his hair impeccably slicked back, unaffected by the wind, and his shoes were so shiny they could reflect someone's face.

"This is called living life with refinement and attention to detail," Qi Zeyan chuckled softly.

"Not drinking?"

"Been entertaining a lot recently, almost drinking every day. I reckon even during the New Year's NO O celebrations, there won't be a meal without alcohol, so I'm resting my stomach for these few days."
