Chapter 129: Remuneration
Translator: Zayn_
Jiang Zhihan didn’t want to listen to the old man’s nagging anymore, so he took advantage of the fact that an elder was talking to the old man and quickly distanced himself.
Just as he was about to find a place to sit down, a little boy ran over and hugged his leg.
“Yiyi, let go quickly!”
The voice from not far away was clearly panicked.
Jiang Zhihan looked down at the little boy, who wasn’t even as tall as his legs and asked coldly, “Who are you?”
The child raised his head and stared at him for a long ti before replying,”Yiyi, my na is Yiyi, little uncle… Umm… Happy New Year, Little Uncle.”
The child’s voice was clear and lodious. He was quite polite and very likable.
Before Jiang Zhihan could ask which family he was from, a woman with heavy makeup walked up to him and tried to pick him up.
“Yiyi, be good. Co with Mommy, okay?”
The child pushed her twice and grabbed Jiang Zhihan’s clothes tightly with one hand.
Jiang Zhihan could tell that a child couldn’t identify the woman’s perfu, so he held his hand and took two steps back, “You are-”
“All, hello, Mr. Jiang. My surna is Li. This is Jiang Yi. Co, Yiyi, call him uncle.”
“Little uncle…I’ve already called you Little Uncle.”
When the housekeeper saw the situation, he walked over to Jiang Zhihan and explained, “Jiang Yi is your aunt’s grandson.”
Aunt’s grandson… Wasn’t that his cousin’s son?
Jiang Zhihan rembered that his cousin died in a car accident a year ago.
The woman surnad Li in front of him must be the second wife of his cousin-in-law.
The reason why Jiang Yi and his cousin and aunt were given the surna Jiang was probably because they didn’t want to lose the relationship they had finally built up.
“Yiyi, let go of Little Uncle’s clothes. Be obedient…”
It was obvious that this woman was afraid of Jiang Zhihan. She couldn’t persuade the child, so her face turned ferocious.
Perhaps he felt that Jiang Yi was in a similar situation as he was back then, so Jiang Zhihan glanced at her and said, “Let him follow first. Uncle Qi, please bring sothing for children.”
The butler did as he was told. He even gestured to the woman who was about to take Jiang Yi away to leave first.
Before the woman left, she did not forget to remind Yiyi to listen to Little Uncle.
Jiang Zhihan took the child and sat down, which imdiately attracted the attention of many people.
If the butler hadn’t stopped them, they would definitely have co to ask questions.
Jiang Zhihan looked at the kid, who was eating a biscuit. It was obvious that he hadn’t eaten dinner.
The butler was still holding a glass of fruit juice and stood at the side, telling him to eat slowly.
“Your na is Jiang Yi?”
“Yes, yes!” The child nodded and extended four fingers. “I’m four years old.”
“How did you know that I’m your little uncle?”
“Mommy said so. Mommy said that Little Uncle is amazing!”
The child gave him a thumbs up.
“The mother you’re talking about is the one just now-”
“No! That’s auntie, my sister’s mother.”
“The couple just gave birth to a daughter,” the butler explained.
Seeing that the young master’s expression was not right, the housekeeper hurriedly asked, “If you want to take Young Master Jiang Yi back to the Jiang family to raise him, I don’t think your relatives will have any objections.”
Jiang Zhihan was noncommittal. “Uncle Qi, you will bring him here a few tis a week in the future.”
With the Jiang family’s attention, Jiang Yi’s father and stepmother knew what to do.
The butler smiled. “Then Sir must be very happy. You were still thinking about your childhood a while ago.”
Jiang Yi finished his juice and burped.
When he saw the two of them looking over, he quickly covered his mouth and stared at Jiang Zhihan with his black, grape-like eyes.
The butler helped him wipe his mouth. “Young Master Jiang Yi likes Little Uncle very much, right?”
“Yes, sir!” Jiang Yi nodded. “Mommy showed Little Uncle’s photo! Grandma showed it to too!”
“I rembered it just by looking at the photo. You’re really amazing.”
The child was very proud of himself. He jumped off the chair and tried to grab Jiang Zhihan’s hand.
“Uncle, are you going to set off fireworks with ?” she asked in a childish voice.
“Dad said he would take to set off fireworks today, but he lied again!”
“Firework…”
Jiang Zhihan repeated.
He suddenly recalled the look in Song Qingyou’s eyes when she talked about fireworks.
If Zhizhi was not unconscious, she might have brought the cat to set off fireworks.
The butler thought Jiang Zhihan was being awkward, so he tried to persuade him, “Young Master Jiang Yi, there’s nothing here.”
“Ahem.” Jiang Zhihan stood up and reached out his hand to Jiang Yi, “Let’s go. I’ll take you to set off the fireworks.”
“Young Master?” The butler was stunned.
I’ll bring him out. Uncle Qi, tell Grandpa that he doesn’t have to follow .”
Without waiting for the butler’s response, he pulled the child out.
As he walked, he lowered his voice and said, “Jiang Yi, I’ll bring you to set off the fireworks, but you have to listen to , understand?”
Little Jiang Yi nodded repeatedly.
11 PM.
Snowflakes were already falling from the sky, and the wind was getting colder and colder.
Song Qingyou watched over her cat for a few hours, but he didn’t wake up. She could only watch the New Year’s Eve party alone.
Just as she was about to fall asleep, a ssage popped up.
Jiang Zhihan asked, [Did you receive your New Year’s gift?]
He only asked about it now?
Song Qingyou was a little surprised, but she quickly replied,
[Yes, thank you.]
Jiang Zhihan: [Inviting you for a voice call]
Song Qingyou was speechless.
When she saw the pop-up window, she was confused.
However, after thinking about it, they were business partners after all. So what if they talked via voice chat?
After the call connected, Song Qingyou didn’t say anything, but she heard a voice from the other end. “Jiang Yi, return the phone.”
“No, Little Uncle. I want Auntie to accompany to set off fireworks!”
She could tell that Jiang Zhihan was talking to a child.
“Where did this auntie co from?”
“This! This is Auntie!”
This sentence was accompanied by the sound of a phone tapping.
Song Qingyou subconsciously looked at her V-account profile picture.
It was a photo of her back.
So the auntie that the child was talking about was probably referring to her?
Before Song Qingyou could react, Jiang Zhihan took back his phone.
His deep voice was comparable to a cello.
“I wonder if AAiss Song has ti?”
“You don’t want to accompany your nephew and set off fireworks, do you?” Song Qingyou asked.
“I can pay you according to the price of Miss Song’s business activities.”
These conditions were too enticing for those who lacked money.
Song Qingyou glanced at Zhizhi. “No problem! But can 1 bring my cat?”
“Alright.”
The two of them hit it off and agreed to et halfway up the mountain in the suburbs.
In winter, the grass on the mountains in the suburbs were bare, and it was snowing. Setting off fireworks would not cause a fire.
Ten minutes later, Jiang Zhihan, who had left early, picked up Song Qingyou, who was wrapped up tightly and carrying a cat carrier.
Song Qingyou and Jiang Yi sat together in the back row.
As soon as she took off her mask and hat, Jiang Yi clapped his hands and said excitedly, “It’s a pretty, big sister!”
Song Qingyou couldn’t help but laugh. She pinched the child’s chubby cheeks. “You’re Jiang Yi?”
“You should call Auntie.”
She didn’t want to be inferior to Jiang Zhihan for no reason.
“Miss Song is right,” Jiang Zhihan, sitting in the driver’s seat in front, agreed with her.
“But if you want to call you auntie… Are you going to marry my father too?”
“Cough cough cough-” Song Qingyou suddenly choked on her saliva.
Jiang Zhihan stopped the car in ti and handed her a bottle of water.
“Jiang Yi, that’s not what she ant by ‘auntie’. You have to apologize to Miss Song.”
“I’m fine.” Song Qingyou waved her hand.
Jiang Yi’s words alone revealed a lot of information..
