"Hey. You're really weird. Before, you kept making excuses when I asked you to come back, and now you refuse to go out. You just want to do the opposite of what I want, right?" Shi Jinhua's tone was a little unhappy, not only because Jiang Qi disobeyed her wishes, but also because Jiang Qi was threatening her.

"No, Mom, I..." Jiang Qi was interrupted by Shi Jinhua before she could finish the words she had tried so hard to organize.

"Okay, stay if you want." Shi Jinhua's tone was still impatient but he finally let go. Jiang Qi's voice was really too sad. After all, this was his own child.

Jiang Qi breathed a sigh of relief; the annoying voice in her head finally stopped.

"Thank you... Thank you..." Jiang Qi finally let go of Shi Jinhua and stood up, murmured. However, due to the pain and emotional ups and downs, her body was a little weak and she couldn't control it.

Ming Luochun quickly stepped forward and held her, and Jiang Qi leaned into his arms.

Seeing this, Shi Jinhua's brows furrowed even deeper. "Are you okay?" Concern already occupied most of his tone.

Jiang Qi was still recovering, looking dazed, and replied to her blankly: "No... nothing. I just haven't eaten for a day and I feel a little dizzy."

"Please sit down." Shi Jinhua pointed to a chair beside him.

Ming Luochun hurriedly helped Jiang Qi over and sat down.

"Thank you, Mom." Jiang Qi thanked politely after sitting down.

Shi Jinhua looked at Jiang Qi and sighed, "It's not that I have to let you go. Today, Old Qin told me that the reason you got sick was because of too much mental pressure. You haven't been sick for many years, so I discussed it with your father and decided to let you go out and do your own thing."

"What about the situation here?" Jiang Qi didn't really care and just asked casually.

Shi Jinhua had completely softened, "I'll take care of things here."

Shi Jinhua's attitude made Jiang Qi unconsciously purse her lips and think seriously about the pros and cons. This matter was too troublesome and she didn't want to take it. If she didn't have to worry about it, she would have fewer things to do and save a lot of energy, but the conditions her father told her yesterday...

"Then, the conditions my dad told me..." Jiang Qi observed Shi Jinhua's expression and spoke tentatively.

Shi Jinhua understood what Jiang Qi meant and said directly: "Ah, if I am the one taking care of this matter, then the matter I discussed with you before will have to be put on hold for the time being." She had no intention of threatening or teasing Jiang Qi, she was just making a serious statement.

After receiving a clear answer, Jiang Qi stopped struggling and immediately stated her position: "Mom! How can I trouble you with this matter? Only I can do it, and I am the most suitable person."

"But your health?" Shi Jinhua was still worried.

Jiang Qi quickly proved herself, "It's fine. When we just came back, Old Qin also said that I was fine. I just controlled my emotions and took medicine as usual. I fainted today mainly because I met a lot of strangers in the past two days, and my emotions were a little out of control. It's nothing serious."

"...Okay." Although Shi Jinhua was still hesitant, he finally nodded in agreement and said, "If you have any questions or difficulties, please feel free to tell me."

Shi Jinhua's words made Jiang Qi stunned for a moment. Her heart seemed to be wrapped in an unknown and unfamiliar emotion, which was a little bitter, but warm.

In the memory of this world, Shi Jinhua has never been a gentle mother. She is strong and powerful, and has always been strict and even cruel in educating Jiang Qi. She taught Jiang Qi to be as strong as she is, but forced Jiang Qi to obey. She did not give her children gentle love like an ordinary mother, but gave Jiang Qi enough courage and confidence.

Jiang Qi in the two worlds has no difference in appearance, personality or thoughts, just like the same person, but they are different in the end.

At the same age, Jiang Qi in another world has been fighting alone since she was 18 years old, relying on others and having no way out. But here, Jiang Qi can rely on Shi Jinhua no matter what, and she has a place to return to.

Jiang Qi looked at Shi Jinhua with a sour feeling on her nose, but the next moment she smiled and said flatteringly, "Hey, we agreed not to let you get involved, so we won't. Don't worry, I will do this for him beautifully. As for you, just keep your promise to me when the time comes."

Jiang Qi's flattering look made Shi Jinhua smile, "You... that's enough, you've been hungry for most of the day, go eat." She said this to Ming Luochun.

"Yes, mother-in-law."

A gentle voice fell into his ears, and Jiang Qi suddenly realized that Ming Luochun was still there. The conversation between the mother and daughter just now seemed not suitable for him to hear, but fortunately they didn't talk too deeply.

I just don't know why she is really defenseless against Ming Luochun. Even if she deliberately put up a sense of defense, it would disappear unconsciously as long as she was in contact with him for a while. They had only known each other for less than three days, but Jiang Qi inexplicably felt a sense of closeness.

Seeing that Jiang Qi didn't move, Ming Luochun leaned over and whispered in her ear, "Do you need me to help you, sister?"

The breath when he spoke gently hit the ear, and the low voice invaded the ear canal. I don't know if it was intentional or not, but he put it close to the left ear. Jiang Qi was stimulated and straightened her back, and her waist couldn't help but thrust forward.

Subconsciously, I turned my head quickly to look at the other person, moving my sensitive area away from the source of stimulation. However, the sense that entered my brain before vision was touch, and it was touch coming from my lips, as if I had hit something equally soft.

At the same time, the soreness from the tip of the nose made Jiang Qi freeze. He opened his eyes wide, his pupils contracted, and tried to focus his vision quickly.

After realizing what happened, he quickly tilted his head back to avoid it, stood up sideways, and said incoherently to Ming Luochun who was standing there: "Yes... yes... yes, I'm sorry! I... I didn't mean it, just... just... it's, I... I..." Jiang Qi didn't know what to say, he was out of words.

Ming Luochun stood up straight without saying anything. This sudden situation made him lose consciousness for a while.

"Ahem." Shi Jinhua, who had witnessed everything, cleared his throat awkwardly, stood up and said, "I'll go out and see if your dad and little Ayue are back." After that, he walked away, leaving the space for the two of them.

The main hall was silent for a moment. Jiang Qi was so embarrassed that she didn't know what to say.

After a long while, Ming Luochun spoke first: "Sister, let's eat." His tone was still steady and no emotion could be heard.

Jiang Qi couldn't tell whether the other party was happy or angry, so she could only mumble in response, "Okay."

Ming Luochun went to the dining room first without saying anything, and Jiang Qi followed behind him. They ate without talking at the table, and until Jiang Zhuo and Lin Yue came back, neither of them mentioned the accident. Jiang Qi saw that Ming Luochun was acting normal and seemed to really not care about him, so she stopped dwelling on it and let it go.

"Where are Gu Jingcheng and the others?" Jiang Qi asked Lin Yue who had just entered the room.

"I don't know. I haven't seen him today."
