night falls

Chapter 61 Hearing the sound at night 60
The next day, Wen Shiqing got off the night shift and went directly to the neurosurgery department.Jiang Gai had another CT scan in the morning. There were still no abnormalities in her brain. Her dizziness and vomiting symptoms gradually subsided, and she was basically ready to be discharged from the hospital.

After completing the discharge procedures, it was almost noon.Jiang Gai and Fang Yu had said that they were going to pick up their luggage today, and they planned to go directly to Fang Yu's place after being discharged from the hospital.

Wen Shiqing worked the night shift last night and will take turns today and tomorrow morning.

Before going back, the two went to a nearby fast food restaurant for lunch.When he was about to leave, Jiang Jicheng's phone call happened to come.

Jiang Gai took the bag and followed Wen Shiqing out, then picked up: "Hey, dad."

"Mustard seeds." Jiang Jicheng's hoarse cigarette voice came from inside, "Your mother, brother, and Xiaojia and I are on the plane. It will take off soon."

Jiang Jie was confused: "Where are you going?"

Jiang Jicheng smiled and said, "Let's go to Yanchuan! Let's celebrate the Lantern Festival together!"

Jiang Gai suddenly stopped and exclaimed: "What??? Why didn't you tell me in advance?"

"Anyway, I have to come to Yanchuan to go through the formalities for Xiaojia." Jiang Jicheng said, "Your grandparents went to your uncle and aunt in Yishi yesterday, and the four of us were deserted at home, so we decided to go there temporarily."

When Wen Shiqing saw her stop, he stood aside and waited silently.

Jiang Jie: "Does uncle know?"

Jiang Jicheng: "Oh, your mother is on the phone with him. I know now."

Jiang Jie: "..."

The stewardess' sweet announcement came from inside. Jiang Jicheng paused and said hurriedly: "The plane is about to leave. Dad won't tell you anymore. Your uncle said he would pick us up at the airport in a while. That's it. Hang up."

As soon as the words fell, before Jiang Gai had time to react, the line was cut off.

Wen Shiqing saw her confused look and asked, "What's wrong?"

Jiang Gai raised his eyes: "My dad is here. He brought my mom, brother and Xiaojia with him and said he came to celebrate the Lantern Festival with me."

Wen Shiqing looked at her, raised his hand and patted her head, and smiled: "That's not good."

He unlocked the car, opened the door and got in the car.

Jiang Gai shrugged and spread his hands, saying to himself: "Then this is too sudden."

As soon as he got in the car and fastened his seat belt, Fang Yu called and mentioned that he was going to pick up the airport in the afternoon. He said that he could just go to the airport directly from the police station and asked Jiang Ai to wait at his house and give her some money. My parents booked a room at the nearby Venus Hotel and swiped his card.

Jiang Gai heard that he had arranged this series of things, so she naturally responded: "Oh."

Then, Fang Yu hung up the phone.

The car stopped slowly at the traffic light at the intersection.Jiang Jie pursed his lips, looked sideways at the man in the driver's seat, and said in a disappointed tone, "My parents have come over these two days, and I might not have time to accompany you for lunch at noon."

Wen Shiqing: "Yes."

Jiang Jie raised her eyebrows and laughed again: "But if you miss me, call me and I'll be right there!"

Wen Shiqing turned to look at her.

The girl's brows were lively and her smile was as bright as a flower. She was so cute that his heart moved.After ruffling her hair, he couldn't help but curl his lips: "Okay."

-

Jiang Gai has been sleeping since yesterday afternoon, so she is very energetic now.

Returning to Fang Yu's apartment, she packed her luggage and cleaned up. Then she went to Fang Yu's room, found the secondary card he mentioned, and went to the nearby Venus Hotel to get a suite.

After everything was done, Jiang Gai saw that the time was almost up, so he called Jiang Jicheng.

The busy signal only rang once. Jiang Jicheng had just gotten off the plane and was waiting for his luggage: "Hey girl, my parents are here and waiting for their luggage!"

Jiang Jie: "Has uncle passed by?"

"We're here. They said they were waiting for us outside."

"Okay, you ask him to take you directly to the hotel, and I'll book a room."

"Oh ok."

After the call ended, Jiang Gai took the room card and went downstairs to wait in the lobby.Sitting there and playing with her mobile phone for a while, she was a little bored, and wanted to send Wen Shiqing a WeChat message, but then remembered that he should be catching up on sleep at the moment, and finally clicked back to Moments silently.

After more than 40 minutes of hesitation, Fang Yu finally sent Jiang Jicheng and Fang Xin to the hotel.

Jiang Gai caught a glimpse of the familiar Jeep Wrangler through the window. Her eyes that were about to close suddenly opened, and she stood up and ran out.

Jiang Shu in the car was the first to see her, and before getting out of the car, he shouted excitedly: "Sister!"

Xiaojia stepped down from the back seat, still looking calm, looking up at her.

Jiang Gai leaned over and rubbed his newly-cut hair, and said "Tsk": "It's cool again!"

Xiaojia: "..."

Jiang Shu jumped out of the car nimbly and immediately rushed towards Jiang Gai. He was as happy as an elk, jumping up and down: "Sister, Xiao Shu misses you so much."

Fang Xin finally got out of the car with her bag, closed the door, smiled, and asked her, "Have you eaten?"

Jiang Jie: "Eat, eat, have you and Dad eaten?"

Jiang Jicheng and Fang Yu moved their luggage over from the back seat. The former frowned in disgust and said, "It's not good to eat. That airplane food is terrible."

Jiang Gai held Jiang Shu and Xiao Jia in hand and walked inside, saying, "Then go back to your room and put your luggage, and I'll take you to eat delicious food!"

The waiter in the hotel lobby came out now and took the initiative to help them load their luggage into the delivery truck.

Fang Yu closed the trunk, clapped his hands, and said, "Sister, brother-in-law, I still have a meeting at the bureau, so let's go first."

Fang Xin and Jiang Jicheng turned their heads together, and the latter said, "Okay, you are busy first, and we will have dinner together later, thank you for your hard work this afternoon."

"It's a small matter!" Fang Yu waved his hand and called Jiang Jie again, "Take your parents and have fun!"

Jiang Jie: "I know!"

……

At the end of February, the spring is cold.At night in Yanchuan City, the temperature dropped a few degrees.

Tonight's Lantern Festival meal was still not finished.Fang Yu had to work overtime temporarily because of the action in the bureau, so he couldn't come, so he just called Shen Zizi to come over and take them to dinner.

A few people tidied up at the hotel in the afternoon, and then went directly to the pedestrian street. They had food and drinks, plus lantern riddles and temple fairs during the Lantern Festival. Everyone had a great time, so they settled their dinner casually on the street.

As for the original Lantern Festival dinner, it will be moved to tomorrow night.

The pedestrian street is crowded and lively.Jiang Gai was worried that Jiang Shu and Xiao Jia would get separated, so he and Shen Zizi held hands tightly all the way.After walking around so crowded all night, she felt as if her legs were no longer her own when she returned to the hotel.

It was nearly ten o'clock, Jiang Gai touched his phone and looked at WeChat.Wen Shiqing sent a message in the evening, but at that time she was crowded in the pedestrian street with her hands full. After hurriedly replying a voice message saying "I'll find you when I get back", she put her phone back in her bag and kept talking. I haven't taken it out to see it.

At this moment, I saw that Wen Shiqing sent another message 15 minutes ago——

[Xiaoyu Xiancao’s: Have you arrived at the hotel? ]
Jiang Gai lay on her back on the bed, holding up her cell phone, and replied: [Just arrived. ]
[Uuuuuu, Sorry, I haven’t looked at my phone since I talked to you tonight. There are too many people on the pedestrian street! ]

[Xiaoyu Xiancao’s: Well, it doesn’t matter]

[Xiaoyu Xiancao: Did you have dinner at home tonight? ]

[Xiaoyu Xiancao’s: Yes. ]
[Little Fish Fairy Grass: I probably won’t be able to see you tomorrow_]
A moment after the message was sent, Wen Shiqing didn't reply, but directly played a video.Jiang Gai stood up from the bed, stretched her neck and looked outside the room.

Fang Xin was taking a bath, Jiang Jicheng was watching TV, and Xiaojia and Jiang Shu were playing games.

That's fine, no one will notice.

Then she secretly opened the French window, walked to the balcony, and clicked the call.

The speaker clicked twice, and Wen Shiqing slowly adjusted the camera on the screen.The man was wearing casual clothes with a round collar. His face was clean and handsome, and his hair looked fluffy and fresh. He must have just taken a shower.

Jiang Gai looked at the unfamiliar environment in the room behind him and asked, "Aren't you in the apartment today?"

Wen Shiqing said "Yes" in a low voice: "At my parents' house."

"What did you have for dinner?" he asked.

Jiang Gai rested her elbows on the balcony guardrail, resting her chin in deep thought, and told him all of them one by one: "Fried skewers, pearl milk tea, ice cream, and pan-fried buns."

He leaned back against the back of the chair, put his mobile phone on the holder, and looked at her through the camera with a very gentle look: "I ate quite a lot."

Jiang Jie smiled coquettishly and said, "Hehe, I spent a lot of money at night."

"When will Xiaojia's adoption procedures be completed?"

"Well... I asked Sister Chengcheng in the afternoon, and she said that she mentioned it to the dean years ago, and the dean understood it and already agreed, so we will do it tomorrow."

"Yes." He raised his eyebrows and said suddenly, "Do you want me to accompany you?"

Jiang Gai was stunned, narrowed his eyes, and said with a smile, "My parents are here."

"I know." He paused, his voice low and beguiling, "I'm here now, you're not going to clear my name?"

Hearing this, Jiang Gai silently lowered his eyes and murmured in a low voice: "But little uncle..."

She hasn't figured out how to say it so that Fang Yu can resist the urge not to hit Wen Shiqing after she finds out...

Seeing her hesitation, Wen Shiqing raised his lips and smiled: "Just kidding."

Jiang Gai suddenly felt guilty, raised his eyes and said hurriedly: "Just wait for me, I will let my uncle know as soon as possible!"

"Okay." He slowed down his speaking speed and spoke clearly every word, "There's no rush, I'll wait until you're ready."

……

Without saying a few words, Fang Xin's call came from inside, and Jiang Jie responded, and looked back at Wen Shiqing, who was about to speak out, but the latter spoke before her: "Go, let me know after completing the formalities tomorrow, go to bed early at night, good night .”

Jiang Gai pouted and leaned towards the camera. After kissing her three times, she said goodbye: "Good night."

-

The next morning, after having breakfast at the hotel, Jiang Gai took a taxi with Jiang's father, Jiang's mother, and Jiang Shuxiaojia to the district and county civil affairs bureau where the social welfare institution was located.

On the way, she sent Zhang Chengcheng a WeChat notification in advance. After the latter replied "OK", he also rushed to the district and county civil affairs bureau to join them.

After receiving the queuing number at the Civil Affairs Bureau, Jiang Gai and Zhang Chengcheng checked the relevant materials that needed to be submitted for adoption and made sure that nothing was missing. After the number was called, they asked Fang Xin and Jiang Jicheng to take the materials to the window for processing.

The application process did not take long. Once the documents were submitted and signed, the adoption relationship was officially established.

When Jiang Jicheng and Fang Xin came back after completing the formalities, Zhang Chengcheng looked at Xiaojia, and suddenly couldn't help crying.

There is emotion and reluctance.

The child who has been accompanying and caring for so many years finally has a good home.Zhang Chengcheng couldn't calm down for a while.

Xiaojia was also a little sour, and raised her hand to wipe away Zhang Chengcheng's tears, her voice choked: "Sister Chengcheng, I will always remember you, and don't forget me."

Zhang Chengcheng burst into laughter, sniffed, and said: "How could I forget you? When you go to school in the capital, you must study hard and don't do too much exercise. If you feel uncomfortable, you must tell me. You now have a younger brother, an older sister, and a father." Mom, you are no longer alone. They will take good care of you and treat you even better than Sister Chengcheng."

Xiaojia nodded. Although his face was calm, his heart was full of expectation and joy: "Yes, I know, I will do it, don't worry."

……

Zhang Chengcheng had something to do in the afternoon. After having lunch with Jiang Jie and others, he left.

Shen Beihan's train arrived at the station at two o'clock in the afternoon. Not long after Jiang Gai returned to the hotel after dinner, he greeted his parents and went to the station.

On the way, she called Wen Shiqing, but the other end didn't answer. She was probably busy, so she sent a WeChat message instead, telling him that the adoption procedures had been completed, and now she was going to pick up Shen Beihan at the train station.

After sending the message, the subway just arrived at the station. Jiang Jie put away her phone and got off the train, and went straight to the pick-up station.

-

After Wen Shiqing returned to the office after examining the patient, he saw the WeChat message from Jiang Gai.He returned to the main interface and clicked on the call history. Just as he was about to call Jiang Ai, the screen suddenly switched and an incoming call came in.

It was Fang Yu calling.

Wen Shiqing slid away: "Hello."

……

……

Shen Beihan never expected that the first hot pot dinner he had been looking forward to since last night would turn into a luxurious hotel banquet.

She looked at the exquisite plates on the round table, leaned into Jiang Aye's ear, gritted her teeth and whispered, "What's going on? Why did you take me to meet my parents just because we didn't agree with each other?"

Jiang Jie raised her lower lip helplessly and responded to her with a smile: "My dad said that he rarely comes to Yanchuan once, so he will treat your roommate to a meal no matter what."

As soon as the words fell, Jiang Jicheng got up with the teapot and filled the empty cup in front of Shen Beihan with tea, with a kind smile on his face: "Well, student Shen, it is fate that you can become roommates with our Jiang Jie, don't be polite at night, Eat more!”

Shen Beihan immediately nodded and smiled politely: "Okay, okay, thank you uncle and aunt for your hospitality."

At this time, the door of the box was just pushed open, and Fang Yu and Shen Zizi came in one after another.Jiang Jie saw that there was an extra seat after they sat down, and wondered, "Is there anyone else?"

Fang Yu sat down and moved his chair: "There's more, just..."

Before he finished speaking, the box door was pushed open again.

The man wore a navy blue cashmere coat with a khaki wool sweater underneath. His long legs were wrapped in jeans, and his back was straight.His face was clear, with strong outlines, and his sharp mandibular angle was a little less cold and a little more soft under the warm yellow light in the private room.

Fang Yu turned his head, stood up, opened the space between himself and Fang Xin, and said, "Shi Qing, come and sit down."

Jiang Gai and Shen Beihan, who were facing Wen Shiqing, were completely petrified on their chairs, staring at each other, so shocked that they even forgot to blink.

In the end, Shen Beihan reacted first and leaned into her ear again, still using a voice that only the two of them could hear. He almost couldn't help but laugh: "Hey, it seems I'm not the one meeting the parents tonight?"

Jiang Gai smiled dryly, his eyes fixed on Wen Shiqing, his head turned to the side, and he gritted his teeth at Shen Beihan: "Sister, I'm also surprised!"

She doesn't know at all!
5 minutes ago, she sent him a WeChat message, but she still hasn't received a reply!
Xiaojia, who was sitting next to Jiang Jie, glanced at Wen Shiqing silently first, then at Jiang Jie, and continued to gnaw on the chicken feet with her head down without revealing anything.

　() Do you feel comfortable meeting your parents in advance?
　　Hahahahaha, my uncle will probably be really pissed off if he knows he has so many assists (((o(*▽*)o)))
　　Fang Yu: Where is my 80-meter sword? ? ?
