Chapter 41 -38: Dining with the Qi Family Members (Two Chapters Combined)_3
“His elder brother Qi Chen was more troublesome during his childhood, but after growing up, he gradually developed the calm demeanor he has now. Qi Xingzhou is completely different; he seems to be born without emotions, and he doesn’t communicate with anyone, even with us he communicates very little.”
“However, after the elevator accident that happened last time, for several months he wouldn’t go outside, but recently, he’s been going out every evening, holding the Small Night Lamp you gave him. He would wait at the elevator entrance of the hotel for hours, and no one could persuade him to leave.”
“We had no idea why he was doing this and thought it was the first time he encountered an elevator malfunction, which might have caused some psychological impact. We even specially invited doctors to our home to examine him several times, but they all said there was nothing wrong.”
“It wasn’t until yesterday that Qi Chen discovered the reason, Qi Xingzhou might have been waiting at the elevator entrance for you. Hearing that, we immediately asked the hotel to review the surveillance video from that day. And then we found out that you had helped him in the elevator.”

“It’s also for this reason that Qi Jingshan and Qi Chen put aside their company affairs and came to the hotel with me, to meet you and express their esteem and gratitude toward you,” Ji Shuang said as she picked up the bag she had placed aside and took out the prepared gift.
“Actually, we should have contacted you a long time ago, to thank you in person for your help to Qi Xingzhou that night. I hope it’s not too late now. This is a small token of our appreciation.” As she spoke, Ji Shuang put a palm-sized, exquisitely wrapped box into Jiang Ning’s hand.
Jiang Ning hadn’t expected Ji Shuang to say so much in one breath.
When she had searched online for news about the Qi Family, she had not found any information about Qi Xingzhou, only about Qi Jingshan and Qi Chen.
Moreover, she hadn’t heard about another young master of the Qi Family from Huo Song or Huo Miao, which suggested that the Qi Family, considering the protection of Qi Xingzhou, had sealed off any information about him very effectively.
Looking at the beautiful small box Ji Shuang handed over, Jiang Ning’s first reaction was to refuse, “Actually, I didn’t really do much, and the meal you just treated me to was already enough to express your gratitude.”
“Keep it. It’s not anything of great value,” Ji Shuang insisted, placing the item in Jiang Ning’s hand and gently but firmly preventing her from refusing.
“Moreover, I do have a favor to ask, I was hoping you could come to my house and see Qi Xingzhou. Is that possible?” Ji Shuang seemed to be aware her request might be too much, adding, “Think of it as owing you a favor. If you need help in the future, or if there’s anything you want now, just ask, and I’ll do what I can to help you.”
Having finished, she looked at Jiang Ning with hopeful eyes, “Is that okay?”
No matter how high her status in the upper echelons or how much she was worth, in this moment, Ji Shuang was just an ordinary mother.
Jiang Ning didn’t think much about it and nodded, “It’s okay.”
She raised the exquisitely wrapped small box in her hand, “Let this be my compensation for visiting him.”
Jiang Ning had already said that the meal she had today was enough to offset the favor of helping Qi Xingzhou last time.
Ji Shuang was taken aback, then suddenly laughed.
She was, after all, Qi Jingshan’s wife and Qi Chen’s mother. Opportunities were rare for her to owe someone a favor.
Jiang Ning, knowing the identities of Qi Jingshan and Qi Chen, was undoubtedly aware of this fact.
Her youngest son might be a bit simple, but his ability to judge people obviously inherited her wisdom!
