Chapter 140 You have to drink with me (Ch 140)

When Qi Jia ran to the gate in a hurry, holding an umbrella and wearing slippers,

I saw the tiny Zhang Ruonan wearing a white sweatshirt, a hat and a mask, holding a red plastic bag.

She was squatting under a big umbrella outside the guard room to avoid the rain, with a silver-gray suitcase next to her.

At the end of November, although Shanghai is located in the south, the temperature is not too cold.

But in this kind of weather with heavy rain and wind, if you get wet, you will still easily catch a cold.

Worried that Zhang Ruonan might catch a cold from the rain, Qi Jia ran over to her, squatted down and patted her head.

“Are you wet in the rain? Get up and come home with me first.”

Hearing Qi Jia’s voice, Zhang Ruonan raised her head, pouted, and said aggrievedly,

“I was scared to death. I didn’t expect it to rain so heavily here.

The plane was shaking in the sky just now, and I thought I was doomed this time.”

This pitiful appearance made Qi Jia laugh, and he gently pulled her up from the ground.

Dragging her suitcase, she smiled and said,

“Okay, everything is fine now, let’s go home first.”

“Hmm~”

Zhang Ruonan nodded and leaned against Qi Jia.

Because the umbrella was too small, even though the two of them were squeezed together, they were still drenched by the rain and screamed in pain. They trotted all the way into the community.

When they got home, they were both soaked.

Qi Jia took Zhang Ruonan to the guest room, and went back to his room to change his wet clothes.

When I came out, Zhang Ruonan was still in the room.

Qi Jia thought about it and went to the kitchen again, found a piece of ginger, washed it, peeled it and sliced ​​it.

While I was busy, Zhang Ruonan came out.

Seeing Qi Jia making noises in the kitchen, she came over, wiping her hair, and asked,

“What are you doing?”

When the water boiled, Qi Jia added red dates and a little brown sugar, then covered the pot, lowered the heat, and said,

“I’m making ginger soup for you, otherwise you’ll suffer from a cold.”

After hearing this, Zhang Ruonan’s eyes lit up and curiosity piqued, so he came over.

“Hey, you can do this too?”

Qi Jia looked back at her and curled his lips.

“Qi Er~making a fuss.”

One minute later,

Zhang Ruonan sat at the dining table, sipping the ginger soup prepared by Qi Jia.

Feeling warm all over, she glanced at Qi Jia who was still busy in the kitchen and asked curiously,

“What are you busy with now?”

Qi Jia was still busy with his work, and said without turning his head,

“You probably haven’t had dinner yet. My family is poor, so I can only cook some noodles for you.”

After hearing this, Zhang Ruonan’s eyes curved with laughter.

She held her chin with one hand and watched Qi Jia busying around quietly.

Holding a spoon in one hand, I gently stirred the steaming ginger soup in the bowl.

I don’t know how long it took, but suddenly, she said,

“Aren’t you curious about why I suddenly appeared at your door?”

Qi Jia did not answer immediately, but came out of the kitchen carrying the cooked tomato and egg noodles.

Put the noodles on the table, looked at her and smiled.

“Eating is the most important thing, wait until you are full, then you can slowly say what you want to say.”

After hearing this, Zhang Ruonan looked at Qi Jia intently, her eyes suddenly moistened.

She said as she stirred the ginger soup with a spoon.

“After you got into trouble, Mingming and I both thought of speaking out online to support you.

When the company found out, they confiscated both of our social media accounts.

Sister Wang also advised me not to be impulsive at this time. If I accidentally say something wrong, it will cause trouble for you.

Who knows, this matter may be over in a few days.”

Qi Jia looked at this somewhat stubborn girl and was deeply moved. He smiled and asked,

“Then, you didn’t listen to Sister Wang and came to Shanghai to find me alone?”

“Am I that stupid?!”

Hearing Qi Jia say this, Zhang Ruonan rolled her eyes at him and shook her head.

“I did listen to Sister Wang and waited in the company for a few days.

But things were not at all as she said, and they slowly passed.

Instead, the incident got bigger and bigger. When I returned to the company, I heard people in the public relations department saying,

It is obvious that there is capital behind this. Some people see that you are too popular and want to kill you in one go.

I’m worried about you. And the company hasn’t assigned me anything to do recently.

So, I found an excuse and told Sister Wang that I wanted to take a break and go home to have a look.”

After Zhang Ruonan finished speaking, perhaps she felt a little embarrassed.

He lowered his head and drank the ginger soup in small sips.

Qi Jia looked at it with amusement and saw the red plastic bag on the table.

I remembered that she had been holding it in her arms just now, so I pulled it over curiously and opened it.

There were only some peanut beer and snacks like potato chips inside, which made me burst out laughing.

“So, you just wanted to get me drunk so I wouldn’t be upset, right?”

Zhang Ruonan’s face turned red, and she didn’t know if it was because of the heat or because of Qi Jia’s laughter.

She murmured softly,

“No, I just want you to relax and stop thinking about the bad things on the Internet.”

Seeing her like that, Qi Jia was really touched but didn’t know what to say.

He is now dark purple, and those who used to greet him with a smile,

Artists who call me teacher all the time and brother all the time try to avoid me for fear of getting into trouble.

Even Huang Bo, Shen Teng and other first-line artists only comforted themselves in private and did not dare to speak out in public.

And even in this situation, Zhang Ruonan actually came to find him so blatantly, dragging a suitcase with her.

If they are accidentally photographed by reporters, the two will definitely be on the headlines tomorrow.

Moreover, if Guangguang knew about this, it would definitely be furious and would ban Zhang Ruonan.

But even if doing so would cost him his career, this silly kid would still come to find him.

But fortunately, she wore a mask and a hat before coming.

Plus the weather is bad today, so there shouldn’t be any problem.

Qi Jia’s mood was instantly shattered by Zhang Ruonan’s sincerity.

At this time, Zhang Ruonan had almost finished drinking the ginger soup.

She picked up the bowl, drank the last bit, put it down, and uttered an exaggerated exclamation.

“Wow, this ginger soup is so delicious, I can drink three bowls of it!”

Seeing her exaggerated expression, Qi Jia smiled and couldn’t help but blurt out,

“Then if, if I let you drink for the rest of your life, would you be willing?”

After saying this, the atmosphere became somewhat ambiguous.

Zhang Ruonan looked at Qi Jia with eyes wide open, and after blinking,

Suddenly he pretended to be serious, shook his head and said,

“I don’t want to~”

Hearing this answer, Qi Jia felt very embarrassed for a moment.

I cursed myself for being so delusional and talking nonsense.

I was thinking of making a joke and saying something to lighten the mood, similar to the clown quotes on TikTok,

“It’s okay if you don’t want to, but could you please not go out and tell others about it?”

But before he could think of what to say, Zhang Ruonan spoke again.

She lowered her head and ate the noodles in small bites. She raised her head and glanced at Qi Jia.

His eyes were filled with laughter, and then he quickly lowered his head, smiled and whispered,

“You have to drink with me.”
