Jian Wei took a deep breath, then looked up and smiled apologetically at the happy man: "Little Zhao, I'm sorry, I don't really want to participate."

Little Zhao, who had thought that Jian Wei would definitely agree, shouted in disbelief. "Why, Jian Wei," she unwillingly added, "Your Inherent Skill is so good, you're just missing a chance!"

Jian Wei once thought that the most correct thing she had done was to learn how to design them, allowing her to find out her own value.

But now, looking at the regretful Little Zhao, she felt that designing this path had brought her far more value than it had ever achieved.

She smiled and comforted him, "I'm not that good …"

"Who said that!" Little Zhao was still unwilling to give up, "Don't you want to try? If it's not for the company, even if it's for yourself, you can't define yourself so early! "

For himself? Jian Wei was shocked, as if she had never done anything because of her.

Ever since her mother died, ever since she lost her virginity.

How long had it been since he'd asked himself what he wanted?

Jian Wei's attitude slowly started to waver.

She had always been confident in her own designs, but when she saw that the Xiao family was willing to pay for it, she inexplicably wanted to avoid it.

This was indeed a rare opportunity.

If he could become famous in the first round, he might not have to be as passive in the economy as he was now.

"Where did this competition take place?" Jian Wei said uncertainly.

"I think there's a competition area at Hongyi Advertising."

Isn't it in Xiao family? That's good, Jian Wei was relieved.

"Then I'll participate!" As she said these words, Jian Wei's gaze contained a determination that did not exist in the past, "Treat it as me."

Just treat it as him! Seeing Little Zhao's happy expression, Jian Wei secretly made up her mind.

Later, the Little Zhao simply put down the work that she was not in a rush for, and gathered in the same room with Jian Wei, and started to talk about design ideas with her.

The two of them came up with the same idea. They both started with "Starlight".

After basically confirming his line of thought, he only needed to search for more information.

Before the afternoon shift, Xiao Yihan called, saying that his Grandfather Xiao wanted him to return to the ancestral residence to eat dinner.

Ever since he had left the hospital, although she had made a few phone calls, Jian Wei had already started to miss Old Man Xiao's loving appearance.

After everyone had left, Jian Wei picked up her bag and prepared to leave. After thinking for a while, she picked up the copy list.

After passing by a street, Jian Wei saw that Xiao Yihan's car was parked far away.

There were not many people here, so Jian Wei was not afraid of being looked at by others. Thus, she openly got on the car.

Xiao Yihan had been very busy lately, so when he closed the door, he discovered that he was napping while leaning on the chair.

As if disturbed by the noise, he frowned impatiently, but did not open his eyes.

Jian Wei could tell from his even breathing that Xiao Yihan seemed to be asleep.

The driver brother looked at Jian Wei's surprised face and explained in a low voice: "Madam, Radix Sorbiae has been working overtime recently."

"These two days, I only rested at around four or five in the morning," As he spoke, he turned around and glanced at Xiao Yihan. I was going to check it out at the hospital. "

Xiao Yihan sick?

Jian Wei turned her head and looked at the man who was still frowning.

The dark green in his eyes was easily discernible. He hadn't paid attention to it just now, but now it seemed that his breathing had become a bit heavier.

"Okay, I got it. "Thank you." Jian Wei nodded, she thought for a while and said softly, "Wait a while at the pharmacy, I will go buy some medicine."

The chauffeur nodded and started the car.

As they neared the old house, Xiao Lin, the chauffeur, parked his car in front of the pharmacy.

Jian Wei worked all day and dozed off while swaying about in the carriage. When the car stopped, she didn't even have time to react.

Xiao Lin saw that Jian Wei was a little confused, and reminded her, "Madam, we're at the pharmacy."

"Ah, the pharmacy?" Jian Wei puzzledly looked out of the window. The green and white lamp lights overlapped with the memory of buying medicine for her mother, startling her awake, "Ah! I almost forgot. "Thank you for reminding me."

Jian Wei laughed embarrassedly, she raised her hand to brush her hair that was messy due to napping and then opened the door and got off the car.

"What's wrong with you? What kind of medicine do you want to buy? "

"By the way, Xiaolin, can I buy aspirin with a cold?"

A hoarse voice and Jian Wei's voice sounded at the same time, but both of them were silent. The air in the carriage seemed to have gradually started to congeal.

Xiao Yihan originally only had a cold, but after the afternoon meeting, he found out that there was a serious trend.

After arriving at the bottom floor of Jian Wei's company, she had been waiting for a long time but the woman still did not come.

He rested against the chair as if he heard Jian Wei's words.

His voice was soft, but he didn't open his eyes. He didn't expect that he would fall asleep so quickly.

He woke up as soon as the car stopped, and although he did not open his eyes, he heard the conversation clearly.

When he heard that Jian Wei wanted to buy medicine. Somehow, he was actually a little worried. Opening his eyes, he asked this question.

He looked at Jian Wei, who was just as stunned as he was, and felt something in the bottom of his heart. Just ask the family doctor to prepare it for you later. "

As if to cover up his guilt, he explained, "Grandpa told me to go back earlier when he called."

Seeing Jian Wei nod his head in agreement and then sitting inside, he calmed down.

At this time, Xiao Lin, who was called out by Jian Wei, finally found an opportunity to reply: "Radix Sorbiae, the Madam is planning to buy medicine for you."

Buy medicine for me? Xiao Yihan had almost blurted out his rejection, "There's no need for her to be so kind!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Yihan's expression immediately became incomparably ugly.

He didn't know why he reacted like a conditioned reflex to attack Jian Wei's concern. Obviously, he was somewhat happy.

Xiao Lin held his breath, and carefully looked at Jian Wei who was sitting down.

Seemingly normal, Jian Wei's mouth even had a bit of a smile.

Jian Wei mocked herself in her heart. Why did she start to be soft-hearted to such an unreasonable person?

Xiao Yihan's words pricked her like a thorn.

But now she had learned not to be angry but to smile instead.

"Let's go, Little Lin." Jian Wei's calm voice sounded out.

Xiao Lin was inconvenient to comment on the boss's family matters, but just this matter alone made him feel some sympathy for Jian Wei who was quietly sitting there.

Old Man Xiao had been waiting for a long time. He waited outside the door, but his grandson and granddaughter-in-law were nowhere to be seen.

Just as he was about to send someone to pick it up, he saw the car enter the garage.

The first to walk out was Jian Wei. When she saw Old Man Xiao, who was leaning on his walking stick as he surveyed from the entrance, the unhappiness in her heart immediately disappeared.

"Grandfather!" "Why did you come out?" She jogged to the door and supported the old man, "Be careful not to catch a cold, I will blame myself!"

Old Man Xiao was also happy to see Jian Wei, but he felt a little guilty inside his heart when he saw her coming out alone.

"Weiwei, between you and Yihan …"

"I'm pretty good with him, don't worry, Grandfather." Jian Wei seemed to be embarrassed as he slightly lowered his head, "Today's preparations for a match is a bit too late. He's been waiting for me for a long time! "

Old Man Xiao paid attention to Jian Wei's expression and sighed in his heart, but still patted his hands, "That's good, that's good!" Jian Wei smiled lightly.

One old and one young, Xiao Yihan entered the house not long after.

Old Man Xiao, who was listening to Jian Wei talk about life, snorted coldly when he saw the leisurely approaching Xiao Yihan.

Jian Wei's heart warmed, "Grandfather, Yi Han isn't feeling well today, so he walked slowly." When he turned his head to look at Xiao Yihan, his expression was a little complicated, "He really wants to meet you. Is that so, Yi Han? "

Xiao Yihan leaned on the sofa and sat down, dragging his exhausted body, he was even panting after walking for a while.

He didn't think that Jian Wei would speak for him, but he only spoke for an instant before continuing, "That's right, Grandfather. Don't be angry with me! Be careful not to get angry, or someone will start crying again. "

It was as if it was just an ordinary family conversation, yet it made the two sitting there feel mixed emotions.

Seeing that Xiao Yihan's expression was indeed tired, the Xiao family's old patriarch asked Xiao Yihan with concern if he drank the medicine, and after receiving his confirmation, he felt more at ease.

Jian Wei looked at the man who still looked the same as ever even while speaking lies, and felt it was funny.

Xiao Yihan took note of Jian Wei's playful expression and nodded his head.

"Weiwei, what kind of competition did you say you were going to participate in?" Old Man Xiao frowned.

He couldn't understand how young people nowadays didn't care about pregnancy at all.

At this moment, the Elder of Xiao family was sitting right in front of him. Jian Wei was truly unwilling to speak of it, but seeing how concerned Grandfather Xiao was, he could only bite the bullet and say, "Starlight Advertising Design Competition."

The person holding the newspaper that was not in the mood to read spoke out, "Is it related to Xiao family?"

Hearing Xiao Yihan's words, Old Man Xiao also looked towards Jian Wei.

Seeing her nod her head affirmatively, the Xiao family's old patriarch laughed, "That's great! I was still worried about your body, so I simply let Yi Han … " The meaning of his words was self-evident. "What do you think? "Chilling!"

The person whose name was called was in a daze, he also did not expect that Jian Wei, who had just been discharged from the hospital, would be forced to participate in a competition with so much effort.

A little guilt was awakened by his grandfather's words, and he was about to agree.

However, he heard that woman speak with determination: "No need to trouble grandfather, Yi Han is very busy and I can do it myself!" Thinking that a man wouldn't make an exception for her, she rejected him with some thought.

"I will definitely pay close attention to my body, pay attention …" Pay attention to Xiao Yihan, "Pay attention to the baby! "Don't worry, grandfather."

This was the first time since he had been discharged, that he had not brought up this child in front of Xiao Yihan. Jian Wei was actually a little nervous, and her hands were slightly sweating.

Therefore, when she saw the man leaning on the chair turn gloomy after hearing her words, she only felt her body turn cold.

Old Man Xiao didn't pay attention to the subtle atmosphere between the two of them, but was still worried about whether Jian Wei's body could handle it. After receiving Jian Wei's reassurance, they could finally be considered to have agreed on a temporary basis.

When Xiao Yihan heard Jian Wei's rejection, his heart was filled with rage and his expression became solemn.

No matter what, he was still married to Jian Wei, but she wasn't willing to rely on him to lie about how busy he was!

He then looked at Jian Wei's smiling face, which was especially dazzling. The feeling of being completely ignored made him go crazy.
