If Li Qian has already become the deputy manager of the housekeeping department, she doesn't need to personally serve dishes and do everything by herself. But who is Ji Xiaoli? To put it simply, they were just high school classmates and had no connection at all, but now things are different.

  Ji Xiaoli and Qin San Ye walked closer, and Qin San Ye also had a very close relationship with her direct boss Wei Er Shao. This line of thought was clear. She needed to get on well with Ji Xiaoli, making her feel that this classmate still remembered her, so that the other side might look at her differently.

  Li Qian is a clever person, and Wei Lin has also figured it out... However, there are many such women in society, and he doesn't need to do anything for just one clever person. After all, he's a businessman who knows how to make the most profitable decisions. Keeping Li Qian as his deputy manager was just a small gesture, and in fact, he was just trying to curry favor with her aunt.

  Ji Xiaoli also saw Li Qian, but gratitude is one thing, she's not stupid and wouldn't really become a stepping stone for someone, so she just nodded at her and followed Qin Zhenyang inside.

  "Have you seen her change?" Qin Zhenyang looked at his little wife and asked seemingly nonchalantly.

  Ji Xiaoli nodded and smiled: "I saw it. Although she has become more tactful, just like you said, people will change after entering society. She changed and I also changed, so it's not a big deal... She helped me once, now that I've got all this, we're even."

  The two of them chatted for a bit, and now that everyone was present, they were mostly their own people, except for the two brothers from Wei Erqi's family, Tao Xiaoning had also arrived, and then there was Luo Xia.

  There aren't many people, but they all know each other in the same circle, have a close relationship and chat well.

  Ji Xiaoli had never met Luo Xia before, but Luo Xia had already seen her at the engagement banquet. Compared to her good sister, Luo Xia liked Ji Xiaoli more, and she and Qin Zhenyang were like iron brothers. As the saying goes, "love the house and also love the crow", Luo Xia looked at Ji Xiaoli with a gaze as if looking at a little sister.

  Qin Zhenyang introduced her to everyone, actually just the two Qi brothers and Luo Xia.

  "This bespectacled smiling monkey is Qi Jia's eldest, Qi Jinyun. The black monkey in camouflage next to him is the third child, Qi Jindong. And this one sitting beside you is Luo Xia. Didn't you say before that you wanted to see what a female soldier from the troops looks like? If we're talking about Luo Xia, she's absolutely a female soldier among men." Qin Zhenyang introduced the three with their respective characteristics.

  Qizhi Dong frowned, his dark face wrinkled in protest: "Third Brother, isn't your description a bit off? How come all of us Qis are monkeys? If that's the case, wouldn't my old man be the King of Beautiful Monkeys?"

  As soon as he finished speaking, he was slapped on the head by Qi Jinyun beside him, "What a beautiful monkey king, if Dad hears about it, he'll definitely punish you!"

  Ji Xiaoli found the two brothers quite amusing. One was elegant and refined, if not for his Western-style suit, he would look like a Confucian scholar in traditional robes. The other one, dark and sturdy, wore camouflage gear that made him look more like a soldier, but if he took it off and put himself among bandits, he would be an exact replica of a bandit.

  However, these two brothers are indeed blood relatives, but Qi Jin Dong grew up too hastily. At the age of 21 or 22, he already looks like a 27- or 28-year-old, and is nearly 1.9 meters tall. No wonder everyone in the Qi family is involved in politics, and such an outlier was thrown into the military camp by the old man for training.

  If Zijin Dong were to enter politics, his face and height would be enough to intimidate a crowd of people. With this physique, he is more suited for the military.

  Qī Jǐn Dōng was slapped, but he rubbed his head and smiled foolishly... No way out, his brother was recognized as the clever one in the family, so he must have said something wrong just now to get slapped, so he acknowledged it!

  The two brothers were secretly observing the woman next to Qin Zhenyang, who was pretty and elegant, but compared to those women from the Academy of Fine Arts, Music Academy, and Performing Arts Academy, she wasn't that much different, so how did she catch his eye?

  Two brothers didn't understand, sometimes even Wei Ershao didn't understand. But there were many things that didn't make sense, as long as you remembered the outcome it was fine. San Ge's woman, as long as she was well taken care of, that was all that mattered.

  As for Luo Xia...

  Ji Xiaoli thought she was a very majestic woman at first glance, but when she looked again, Luo Xia had already put down her imposing aura and turned into a gentle older sister. She smiled and winked at her, "Little Li Mei, hello."

  It's easy for women to have common topics, even if Qin Zhenyang doesn't guide them, the two of them quickly found a common topic. Ji Xiaoli admires soldiers, she already has one by her side, but there isn't a woman, and Luo Xia's valiant appearance made her shine with starry eyes again.

  "Luojie, how did you think of joining the army in the first place? Being a soldier is exhausting and bitter, men can't even hold on, you must be incredibly tough!" Ji Xiaoli praised the female hero with absolutely no reserve.

  Qin Zhenyang couldn't help but laugh out loud and chimed in, "That's exactly why men can't keep up, that's what makes her a tomboy! Luo Xia was a master of hand-to-hand combat back in the military camp, taking down three people at once wasn't a problem for her, and she even held a black belt in taekwondo... Didn't you say you wanted to learn taekwondo before? If you want to learn, just ask her!"

  Luoxia is actually the daughter of a wealthy family, but her parents divorced early. Her father remarried and found an actress, while her mother went to another city, and they rarely contacted each other afterwards... Luoxia was not a weak person since childhood, so she did not follow the path arranged by her father to study abroad, instead, after graduating from high school, she directly joined the army, and everything that followed, including joining the special forces, was achieved step by step through hard work.

  She never thought of relying on anyone, and in the army days she also lived very well, with comrades, brothers and superiors, better than being alone at home by thousands of times. Now that she's married, she will also recall those bittersweet days.

  Because some experiences are the same, she also feels that she can get along with her better than imagined. It's just that her own parents don't care about her, but they won't harm her either, because she never thought of fighting for family property, so her stepmother didn't deal with her much. On the other hand, this person in front of her, the stepmother and stepsister at home seem to be not easy to deal with.

  Lu Xia was quite willing, "I usually don't have anything to do, and I also don't like socializing. If you want to learn Taekwondo, you can contact me at any time... Although women don't need to practice a body of muscle, having some self-defense skills is also good."

  Ji Xiaoli nodded happily and asked for Luo Xia's phone number, which she saved in her mobile phone.

  Tao Xiaoning, who was standing aside, sighed: "Sister Luo is mighty! Our Third Sister still looks pretty good now. What I'm afraid of is that if she practices with Sister Luo for a while, then... we won't be her match anymore!"

  In Dr. Tao's mind, women should be gentle and soft, but one by one, they are more capable than men, how can people live like this! Tao Xiaoning sighed while thinking that in the future, he must find a gentle and virtuous woman, absolutely cannot have a tomboy, he can't beat her...

  Lu Xia swept a glance over him with a gloomy face, "With your soft and weak body, I think even someone who doesn't know martial arts can knock you down with just one hit."

  Tao Xiaoning, who was despised, burst into tears again. Wei Ershao, on the other side, also twitched at the corner of his mouth, indicating that women are a kind of creature that can't be touched or provoked, and still need to be tolerated, tolerated...

  "Are you two really married?" Qi Jin Yun and Qin Zhen Yang clinked their glasses together, asking in a low voice, with a hint of profound meaning flashing in their eyes.

  Qin Zhenyang took a sip of water, nodded and said: "Isn't there any fake? I'm almost 35 years old, it's not easy to marry a wife, you can't be short of that dowry money, I'm waiting for it here!"

  Qī Jǐnyún suppressed a smile and said, "How could it be less, I just didn't expect you to be so sneaky... In the past, there were no people around me, now that there are, you've even gotten married, how fast!"

  Hurry up? Qin Zhenyang hooked the corner of his mouth, and a hint of teasing flashed in his eyes: "And you? Three months older than me, I've already caught up with my schedule, but there's no news from your side... Are you really going to be single for the rest of your life?"

  Qī Jǐnyún looks like a refined young master, with a good family background and working in the political committee. Many women have been introduced to him, all of whom are high-society ladies, but he hasn't taken a liking to any of them so far. Is his taste really that high, or is there something else?

  "It's not that, I'm just afraid of harming the young lady... Yangzi, I'll tell you the truth, I've never even told San about this, I'm afraid he can't keep a secret and has been holding it in all along, but holding it in is also painful... This is my nature, I have no interest in women, so what's the point of getting married?" Qi Jin Yun took a sip of wine and let out a bitter laugh.

  Qin Zhenyang was also shocked, but quickly came to his senses. "There were people like this in the army before, but it's not like you're born with it or anything. If you don't try women, how do you know you won't have any reaction at all?"

  "No wonder you don't mind, it's true that there are such people in the army! Yangzi, I also can't tell my family about this kind of thing. Now I'm working under the political commissar and it seems like I'll be transferred soon. If this gets out, it won't be good for my family... But getting married, probably isn't very possible..."

  "So you're just going to drag it out like this? That's no solution either?"

  Qī Jǐn Yún shrugged and said, "Of course it's not possible to drag this on forever. In another two or three years, when Jǐn Dōng gets married, I'll confess to the family. If they still want me to get married at that time, I'll find that Lin family's daughter, I heard she is also..."

  It's just a nominal marriage.

  Qin Zhenyang didn't understand the term, but he understood the meaning. Although it was hard to accept that his brother was gay, since it had already happened, all he could do was offer his blessings. After all, they were just different in their sexual orientation.

  "I thought you'd have some kind of reaction when I told you all this. Didn't expect you to be so calm." Qi Jin Yun said with a smile.

  "What's my reaction? It turns out you've been bullying everyone for many years, and I saw that your relationship with Cheng Cheng was not ordinary back then. I thought you were sworn brothers, but it wasn't like that... Is Cheng Cheng still in that hospital?"

  Qī Jǐnyún nodded, "En, they are in the same hospital as Xiǎo Níngzǐ. Xiǎo Níngzǐ is an internal medicine doctor, he is a pediatrician."

  Qin Zhenyang rubbed his temples, feeling a bit of a headache: "You'd better be careful, and tell that person to be careful too. If Xiao Ningzi finds out, it'll be troublesome... You also know that Xiao Ningzi might not be able to accept this yet."

  Zi Jinyun nodded in agreement. He and Cheng City had done a good job of keeping secrets for several years, otherwise it would not have been possible for their family and friends to be unaware of the situation. However, now that the words were out, it seemed like he had found an outlet to vent his emotions, and the feeling of being suppressed for so long was finally alleviated, making him feel much more relaxed.

  Tonight is a small dinner party at home.

  However, everyone drank a bit too much. Ji Xiao Li was drinking red wine. At first, she didn't feel anything, and while chatting, the two women became more and more enthusiastic, and as soon as they were thirsty, they started pouring wine, until...

  The men, as soon as they sat down at the table, were all the same, each with a mouthful of wine. Even Qin Zhenyang, who had the largest capacity for liquor, couldn't help but feel a bit drunk. When he saw his little wife's rosy complexion, he felt a twinge in his heart. He glanced at the time and it was already half past ten.

  Wei Er drank a bit less than others, so at this time he seemed like an innocent person, "Why don't we disperse for today and continue another day? If we keep drinking, I'm afraid we'll have to sleep here tonight."

  "Wei Xiao'er, Master is sleeping here today, what's the big deal!" Qi Jin was the youngest and had the smallest capacity for liquor, but he had drunk quite a bit. At this moment, he almost jumped onto the table to sing! His voice was loud enough to shake the room!

  Qī Jǐnyún quietly continued to pat her little brother's head a couple of times, and only then did he calm down. Brother control is sometimes an amazing existence!

  "And you, Luo Xia?"

  "I'm fine, the driver is waiting for me right now."

  As for Tao Xiaoning, I'm afraid he'll have to stay overnight at Weilin's place again today. He got drunk and didn't say anything, just fell asleep directly.

  Qin Zhenyang had a drink, but his head was clear, so there was no problem. However, Ji Xiaoli got drunk and smiled shyly whenever she saw someone.

  Qin Zhenyang's mind was filled with excitement and he really wanted to take care of him right now!

  But what surprised him even more was what happened next. His little wife wrapped her arms around his neck, brought her whole face close to his, and after finding the right spot, she kissed him on the mouth.
