Capítulo 991: Chapter 979: Misunderstandings? Jealousy?
“Alright, let’s not talk about thanks. My three little nephews miss you a lot. Co over for a al and play with them.”
Zhan Nanjing said this as she imdiately hooked Qiao Jing’s arm, “Co on, co on.”
This scene served as a reminder to Xu Hongzu, who was standing nearby.
Back then, Xiao Jing was snatched away by that kid from the Zhan Family. This ti, he had to ensure his grandson would seize the opportunity!
He was hoping to hold a great-grandchild!!
Thinking of this, Xu Hongzu cleared his throat and said, “Xiao Jing girl isn’t going to your Zhan Family, she’s coming to our Xu Family tonight. I’m planning to host a celebration dinner at ho to celebrate the project’s success.”
Hearing this, Zhan Nanjing wasn’t pleased.
She pouted, speaking in a resentful tone, “Elder Xu, that’s not fair. I invited Xiao Jing first. Even if you’re planning a celebration dinner, at least wait for another day.”
Xu Hongzu coughed lightly and said without changing his expression, “I’ve been planning the celebration dinner for a while, just haven’t had the chance to ntion it.”
For a mont, the atmosphere was a bit tense.
Zhan Nanjing and Xu Hongzu both turned their gaze to Qiao Jing, waiting for her to make a decision.
Qiao Jing looked at both of them and suddenly found herself in a dilemma.
Just then, three little ones ran in with a pitter-patter.
Seeing the three of them, Qiao Jing was initially surprised, but then rembered their mommy was the famous Professor Qiao. This research institute was founded by their mommy, so it was natural for them to co and go as they pleased.
As soon as Zhan Nanjing saw the three little nephews, she imdiately urged, “Quick, Yubao, Zebao, Mobao, quickly drag your Aunt Jing away. Elder Xu wants your Aunt Jing to go to the Xu Family for dinner, so don’t let him take her away!”
The three little ones, upon hearing this, sped up their steps, rushing toward Qiao Jing.
Zhan Qiaomo clung to Qiao Jing’s left leg like a little koala, saying in a childish voice, “Aunt Jing, Aunt Jing, don’t go to the Xu Family, co back to Purple Garden with us!”
Zhan Qiaoze mimicked his brother, hugging Qiao Jing’s right leg, and whined, “Aunt Jing, I really miss you, co with us!”
Having no leg to hold onto, Zhan Qiaoyu could only hold Qiao Jing’s hand. With his handso and cute little face looking up at her expectantly, he said, “Aunt Jing, please agree to co with us, okay?”
Seeing the three little ones acting cute and spoiled, Qiao Jing’s heart lted.
Faced with one little guy before, she couldn’t bring herself to refuse. Now faced with three, she found it even harder.
Qiao Jing raised her hand to gently pat the three little heads, a smile spreading across her face unconsciously. She said softly, “Alright, Aunt Jing agrees to go back with you.”
“Yay, yay!”
The three little ones cheered in unison.
Seeing her three little nephews succeed imdiately, Zhan Nanjing felt very proud.
Sure enough, her brother’s three kids were adorably unbeatable; no one could resist them!
“Elder Xu, sorry, I’m leaving now.”
Qiao Jing, a bit embarrassed, said to Xu Hongzu, then left under the enthusiastic escort of the three little ones and Zhan Nanjing.
Watching them walk away, Xu Hongzu sighed helplessly.
No sooner had he finished sighing than Xu Moqian arrived.
Xu Moqian glanced around, then asked, “Grandpa, where’s Xiao Jing? Why don’t I see her?”
Xu Hongzu glanced at his grandson and leisurely said, “You ca a step late. She was taken away by Zhan Nanjing.”
“What? Taken away?”
Xu Moqian frowned, “Why didn’t you stop her?”
Xu Hongzu snorted lightly, “Who said I didn’t? I even invited her to co ho for dinner!”
Xu Moqian imdiately blurted out, “Then why didn’t you stop her?”
“Because those three little ones from the Zhan Family also ca. As soon as they arrived, they clung to Xiao Jing girl, holding her legs and acting cute. How could an old man like compete with three little cuties?”
Hearing this, Xu Moqian was a bit annoyed.
Why was it those three little ones again?
Last ti at dinner, these three were causing mischief. Were they deliberately opposing him or what?!
Looking at his grandson’s aggrieved expression, Xu Hongzu couldn’t help but ask, “Looking like this, have you made up your mind? Finally awakened? Decided to pursue her?”
“Grandpa, can you stop overthinking?”
Xu Moqian pouted, “I only see her as a very good friend. Your grandson, I, am single-minded. I only like Sister Jing. How many tis must I say this?”
Hearing his grandson say this, Xu Hongzu suddenly fud, “How could I have such a stubborn and pigheaded grandson like you?”
“You’re the only heir in three generations of our Xu Family. If you keep being this stubborn, how will I ever get to hold a great-grandchild in this life!”
Seeing his grandpa so worked up, Xu Moqian raised an eyebrow and mischievously suggested, “How about this then, I’ll go back and ask my parents to try harder, give you another grandson, and then let your little grandson eventually give you a great-grandson?”
Almost fainting on the spot due to anger, Xu Hongzu glared at his grandson, fuming, “I’m so old already. By the ti your little grandson grows up and starts a family, it’ll take at least twenty years! Will I even be around after twenty years?!”
Xu Moqian shrugged indifferently, “Of course you’ll be around. See how energetic you are, glowing with health, always full of strength when you hit . With your fitness, living another fifty years shouldn’t be a problem!”
“You rascal, itching for a beating again?”
Xu Hongzu said, threatening to go after Xu Moqian.
Seeing his grandpa’s stance, Xu Moqian quickly bolted away.
On this side, the grandfather and grandson were having a row.
On the other, Qiao Jing, surrounded by three little ones and Zhan Nanjing, arrived at Purple Garden.
anwhile, in Purple Garden’s yard, Jin Yufei was pestering Zhan Qipei to talk, but Zhan Qipei’s expression remained cold as ever, barely responding to Jin Yufei.
Jin Yufei chose to ignore Zhan Qipei’s indifference and continued to stay close, almost touching him.
When Qiao Jing and the others entered, this was the scene they saw.
From a distance, the scene made the two seem quite close.
Out of curiosity, Qiao Jing instinctively took a second look.
The three little ones exchanged glances with each other.
Then, Zhan Qiaoyu tugged on Qiao Jing’s clothing and was the first to speak, “Aunt Jing, don’t misunderstand. My dad has nothing to do with her!”
The two brothers nodded vigorously, “Exactly, exactly!”
Hearing the little ones, Qiao Jing couldn’t help but chuckle.
She withdrew her gaze, turned to the little ones, and said with a smile, “What’s to misunderstand? Your dad has nothing to do with either.”
Upon hearing this, the three little ones were a bit disappointed and instantly less lively.
