Chapter 2318: Chapter 2319: The Liang Family’s Misfortune
Upon hearing Ji Qingyan’s shocked cry from outside the door, Lin Yi immediately perked up.
Rushing out, soon after, Song Lan and Ji Antai also ran up from downstairs.
“I’ll go in and take a look.”
After calling out, Lin Yi entered the bathroom and found Ji Qingyan sitting on the toilet, tears streaming down her face from fright.
“What’s wrong?”
“I’m, I’m bleeding…”
Ji Qingyan pointed to her underwear and said.
Lin Yi looked over instinctively and saw only a little red mark.
“It’s fine, it’s a normal occurrence, don’t panic.”
Lin Yi grabbed Ji Qingyan’s hand and felt her pulse, and his anxious mood relaxed.
“Your pulse is pretty good,” Lin Yi appraised Ji Qingyan, “Did you lift anything heavy when you went out yesterday?”
“Umm…”
Asked by Lin Yi, Ji Qingyan felt a bit guilty, “After our check-up yesterday, we went shopping and bought some things.”
Seeming afraid that Lin Yi would admonish her, she hurriedly explained:
“I only carried a coat and a pair of shoes, Tao Yuan carried the rest of the items, they didn’t feel heavy.”
“It’s not about whether they are heavy or not, it’s that at this stage, any trivial matter can trigger a major problem,” Lin Yi said:
“When I was working at the hospital before, there was a woman who just sneezed and lost her child.”
“Ah?!”
This news was unbelievable for Ji Qingyan, and her complexion turned nasty, and she even began to feel scared.
She couldn’t accept such an occurrence happening.
“Be a little more careful during this period.” Lin Yi calculated it and said: “In about three months, once everything is stable, there won’t be such big issues.”
“I, I understand.”
After reminding her, Lin Yi walked away, Ji Qingyan took a shower and came out of the bathroom.
In the morning, around nine o’clock, the family was having breakfast when an Alfa stopped outside.
Then, Qin Han, Gao Zongyuan, and He Yuanyuan came in.
“Come, come, come in quickly.”
Seeing the three, Song Lan welcomed them.
“Have you eaten?”
Qin Han shamelessly smiled, “Actually haven’t eaten yet, was planning to freeload a meal from Auntie Song’s.”
“How could you say freeload? When you are here, it’s like being at your own home, find a seat, I will get you bowls and chopsticks.”
“Okay.”
They had been here a few times before, so Qin Han and the others didn’t stand on ceremony, and Song Lan got three sets of bowls and chopsticks for them.
“How come you three are together?”
Gao Zongyuan yawned, “Yuanyuan said she was going to get some test results today and asked me to come along. I was together with Brother Qin at the time, and since President Ji is pregnant, we should come and check up on you.”
“What about Old Liang, I haven’t seen him for a long time.”
“There was some trouble at their place recently, they’re probably busy at home now,” said Gao Zongyuan:
“I’ll give him a call tonight, let’s go out for a drink.”
“Hmm?”
Lin Yi picked up a piece of salted vegetable and began to eat, asking inquisitively: “Someone in their family is in trouble? Is it serious?”
“It’s not that someone’s in trouble; it’s trouble with their family business,” Gao Zongyuan clarified:
“I heard they’re having some issues. Brother Qin and I asked him what happened before, but he didn’t say much, just that he could handle it himself and mentioned a big project he was negotiating, then he’s been elusive ever since.”
“That doesn’t seem right, the whole of Xinhua Airlines is owned by their family, and it’s a guaranteed profitable venture, how could there be problems?”
“Mainly because besides Xinhua Airlines, his mother also controls a bunch of properties. Plus, the government has been tightening oversight over airlines, which caused a series of chain reactions.”
Gao Zongyuan shrugged his shoulders, “I myself haven’t seen him in almost half a month, so I don’t know how it’s going now.”
“Let’s not discuss this blindly, the two of us have known each other for seven or eight years,” Qin Han interrupted:
“Though there are some troubles with the family business, I reckon it won’t affect him too much. Who knows, he might be in his office having a blast right now.”
Gao Zongyuan burst into laughter.
“With Old Liang’s character, he might indeed do something like that.”
“Find some time to give him a call, go out for drinks tonight. I’m not busy these days, and New Year’s is coming. Tell him not to get too wrapped up in work.”
“Alright.”
Ring, ring, ring—
Just then, Lin Yi’s phone rang. It was Wang Cuiping calling.
“Mom.”
“Son, I heard Qingyan is pregnant, how is she feeling now? Is she vomiting?”
It was no surprise to Lin Yi that Wang Cuiping knew this news.
“We found out the night before last, don’t make a fuss.”
“What are you muttering about, you rascal? I’ve asked Ning Yue to get the tickets ready, we’re flying to Zhong Hai in a bit. Don’t you go anywhere today.”
“Hmm? Coming to Zhong Hai? I’ll be back in a few days.”
“It’s not about whether you’re coming back or not, it’s that with what happened, we must make a trip there, it’s about showing our concern.”
“Er… it’s just a pregnancy, not the birth of a dragon, don’t panic, stay calm.”
“What nonsense are you talking? Do you believe I will spank you? With such a big matter, can I not worry?” Wang Cuiping scolded:
“Don’t wander off today; Ning Yue and I will be boarding the plane shortly.”
“I’ll come to pick you up.”
“That works too.”
Wang Cuiping didn’t bother with pleasantries with Lin Yi, it was normal for the son she raised for so many years to come and pick her up.
After hanging up the call, everyone’s gaze at the table fell on him.
“Is Mother Wang coming?” Ji Qingyan asked.
Lin Yi nodded, “She found out you’re pregnant and wants to come and see.”
“It must have been Ning Yue and Mother Wang who talked.”
“Then let her come; we’re free anyway.”
“Exactly, exactly, it’s a good thing.” Song Lan said:
“We’re practically one family now, need to visit more often. You all come home for dinner tonight, and go out to gather some other day.”
“I’m thick-skinned, Auntie Song has invited me, I’ll definitely come for dinner.” Qin Han reclined on his chair back, nonchalantly saying.
“Yes, yes, yes, everyone come over tonight; it’s more lively with everyone together.”
“Then let’s split up.” Lin Yi looked at Ji Qingyan and He Yuanyuan, “The two of them will go to the hospital to get test results, and we’ll go to see Old Liang, just in case there really is something wrong, we can help out.”
“I called him on my way here, said he’s busy in the office, so we should be able to find him there,” Gao Zongyuan stated.
“Let’s go.”
The group split into two, Ji Qingyan and He Yuanyuan drove off in the family Alfa, while Lin Yi drove Qin Han’s Alfa toward the airport.
…
Xinhua Airlines, Chairman’s Office.
“Dad, do you really want to match us up?” Liang Jinming sat on the sofa, unwillingly saying.
“Our two families are well matched.”
Liang Jinming’s father, Liang Zhendong, spoke:
“You also know the situation at home lately, we’re in dire need of the Jinyang project for transformation. With their help, it would be a lot easier, and in the future, we could expand our influence in Zhong Hai.”
