“Baihe…” Qi Yan was leaning against the car window, looking at the traffic outside, he still didn’t know why he promised to go to the Cen family to stay for a few days, “Isn’t it a little bit inappropriate for me to stay at your place?”
“Are you worried that you won’t be able to live with too many people?” Cen Baihe pretended not to understand what Qi Yan meant, “We all have our own houses, and the only ones who usually live in the big villa are me, my elder brother and elder sister-in-law. My dad and the others just come back often to eat, so there aren’t that many people in the house.”
“That’s not what I meant,” Qi Yan coughed dryly, “I just don’t think it’s good to disturb you all like this, and my injuries are almost healed now, so I don’t need to be taken care of.”
“When you were discharged from the hospital, the doctor specifically said that you are still weak and you need to recover slowly,” Cen Baihe said with a serious expression, “I worry about you living alone. You sometimes sleep late, don’t eat on time, and often order takeout. How will your body recover like this?”
When Cen Baihe mercilessly exposed his lazy bachelor life, Qi Yan’s shoulders slumped, “Don’t be so straightforward, save me some face.”
“You…,” Cen Baihe touched Qi Yan’s forehead, “You can do anything you want, but let me arrange this, ok?”
Qi Yan touched his ear and felt a little itchy at the base of his ear, “Okay, okay.”
Isn’t it just like going to a good friend’s house to eat? When they were in the dormitory, didn’t they often eat what Wang Hang brought from home? It’s just that this time he’s going to stay there. It was a lot more obvious.
As long as his skin was thick enough, he didn’t have to worry about eating well! He could try the delicious food that the Cen family chef prepared.
There was a car behind the two of them. First and Third Master Cen were in the car. Both of them came to pick Qi Yan from the hospital.
“Brother,” First Master Cen didn’t quite understand why his brother strongly suggested bringing Master Qi to their home, “Is it not appropriate for us to do this?”
Although he also welcomed Master Qi, would their overly enthusiastic attitude make Master Qi think that their family has ulterior motives? Although many people did not believe in Feng Shui and fortune-telling, these masters were very well-respected among them.
Although Master Qi was young, some well-informed people wanted to invite Master Qi to take a look at their Feng Shui after gaining some insiders’ information. Now their Cen family has directly brought Master Qi to their house and let others see it. I am afraid that the Cen family is going to treat Master Qi as a respected guest.
The so-called “honored guest” is equivalent to the mages who were supported by those aristocratic families hundreds of years ago. Although it is not as complicated and troublesome as in the old days, and the honored guest does not have to be born and die for the master, but when it is time to show his face, he still has to think about the master.
“Since when do we care about what others think?” Third Master Cen said with a sneer, “Others think that Master Qi is young with no background. If they want to take advantage of him, they’ll have to go through the Cen family.”
First Master Cen had a sincere personality. Hearing what his brother said, he smiled and didn’t say anything. He just felt that his brother;s attitude was a little too much. After all, the Cen family and Master were not exactly related. His brother treated Master Qi as his own brother.
Seeing that Qi Yan had shifted in his seat several times, Cen Baihe suddenly said, “Stop the car.”
“What’s the matter?” Qi Yan looked at Cen Baihe puzzled, “Is there something wrong?”
“Big Li, stop by Master’s Qi’s place.”
Qi Yan looked at Cen Baihe blankly. Did he realize that he would eat a lot so he didn’t want him to stay there anymore?
“Qian Qian, I’m sorry,” Cen Baihe looked at Qi Yan seriously, “I just want to take good care of you, but I forgot that you may not be used to our way of life.”
Although they had everything, chefs who could cook all kinds of dishes, gentle and caring servants, and his family liked Qian Qian. But it did not mean that Qian Qian would like it. He had lived with his master since he was a child, and later alone. He felt that Qian Qian should be taken care of, but he forgot that he might prefer a free and relaxed environment.
Qi Yan was stunned, he didn’t expect Cen Baihe to say this. In fact, when a friend had good intentions, he would not refuse, even if he was a little uncomfortable. He did not take it too seriously, but he never thought that Baihe would think of this.
“What’s going on?” First Master Cen turned around when he saw the car that his younger brother and Master Qi were in turned around. He looked at his brother in confusion, “Did they forget something, should we follow?”
“I’m not sure either,” Third Master Cen shook his head and looked at the car that was going away. “Let’s go back first.”
First Master Cen shook his head, and he didn’t know what was going on. His brother had a strange attitude towards Master Qi since he got injured. As his younger brothers grew up, their minds became more and more difficult to understand.
The car stopped slowly, Qi Yan looked at the familiar scene outside the window, turned to look at Cen Baihe’s perfect profile, and reached out to poke his arm, “Aren’t you inviting me to your house?”
Cen Baihe turned to look at him.
“Then come with me to pack some things,” Qi Yan opened the car door. He stood outside the car and bent over to look at him, “You should treat your guest well.”
Cen Baihe paused for a moment and smiled, “Sure.”
Big He and Big Li watched Fifth Master Cen follow Master Qi upstairs, thinking that they were the most useless bodyguards. They were not even needed to help carry things.
“Stop looking, follow them.” Big He tapped on Big Li, “Fifth Master has just recovered, why are we here if he’s going to help Master Qi pack?”
In fact, Qi Yan didn’t have many things to bring, except for a few sets of clothes and some tools. As for other things, he didn’t plan to bring them. If there were intruders, they would not be able to get out without calling the police.
As for other things…
He pushed open the door of the room next to the study, offered a few sticks of incense to his mater and picked up the stale mooncakes from the altar. He replaced them with two packs of unopened biscuits. “I am going to have a feast these few days, look after the house for me.”
“When I come back, I will bring you a roast duck to honor you.”
The smoke from the incense raised, and all Qi Yan could see was the same smiling face in the photo.
“Master Qi, is that all you need?”
A few tattered books that looked like pirated copies, a few sets of simple clothes, and a laptop, all of which didn’t fit the style of a virtuous man.
“I’m not moving,” Qi Yan waved his hand carelessly, “I’m not that particular.” After speaking, he was about to reach for the suitcase, but Big He snatched it away, “You were injured, you can’t use too much force.”
“Sorry to trouble you,” Qi Yan thanked Big He with a smile, “Thank you.”
“Master Qi, you are too polite.” Big He was dazzled by Qi Yan’s bright smile, “This is what we should do.” As a professional bodyguard, he had to share his boss’ worries and joys. Fifth Master Cen cared so much about Master Qi, how could they not treat him well?
They went downstairs, and when they were about to get into the car, he saw Aunty Wang walking towards them.
“Qi Yan,” Aunty Wang glanced at Cen Baihe who was standing beside Qi Yan, and her smile suddenly brightened, “Your friend is really handsome.”
Qi Yan patted Cen Baihe’s chest, “Even Aunty Wang praised you for your good looks. It seems that you are really good-looking.”
“You brat, what nonsense are you talking about,” Aunty Wang was pleased that he approved of her taste. She noticed the luxury car parked next to her and the suitcase Big He was carrying, “You just came back, why are you going out again?”
“I am staying at a friend’s house for two days,” Qi Yan put his hand on Cen Baihe’s shoulder, “I’ll be back in a few days.”
When Aunty Wang heard that, she nodded and said, “Have fun. A few aunties asked me a few days ago about you. Next month, we will hold a residents’ sports meeting. If you have time, come and join us, we can’t lose to the other communities.”
This concerned their pride, especially when they went for square dancing.
“Okay, I will definitely participate.” Qi Yan nodded obediently.
“Your face is so pale, do you have anemia? You should make some jujube porridge, pig’s trotter soup to make up for it. Don’t neglect your health at a young age. When you are old, it will be too late… …”
After listening to Aunty Wang’s advice, Big He and the others got into the car, and they were thinking about various methods to nourish the body.
“Although Aunt Wang likes to nag, she is a kind person.” Seeing that Cen Baihe didn’t say a word, Qi Yan thought that Cen Baihe was annoyed at Aunty Wang, “Don’t take it to heart.”
“No,” Cen Baihe raised his lips slightly, “I’ll ask them to do that when we get there.”
“Do what?”
“Make some food that nourishes the body.”
Qi Yan held his head. Even Fifth Master Cen was a health maniac?
Seeing Qi Yan like this, Cen Baihe laughed. “I’m just joking.”
“Baihe.”
“Hmm?”
“You have become bad, you were not like this before.”
“Perhaps one takes on the color of one’s company?”
Cen Qiusheng saw his eldest and third son come back, and looked behind them, “Only the two of you?”
First Master Cen nodded, “Baihe called just now, he said that Master Qi has something to do and will come later.”
“As long as he’s coming,” Cen Qiusheng glanced at the time, “Then we’ll have dinner later, it just happens that I have breakfast late and I’m not hungry.”
First Master Cen: …
Even his father was behaving strangely.
