Even After My Death

Chapter 743: Chapter 639: Returning to the Capital

The day after Jiang Ning’s birthday, she and Qi Xingzhou bought plane tickets back to the Capital City.

Qi Xingzhou immediately sent a message to his big brother.

Over the past three years, Jiang Ning has had close interactions with the Huo Family.

In the beginning, Ji Shuang frequently contacted Qi Xingzhou, but gradually, she started calling Jiang Ning instead.

During these three years, Jiang Ning and Qi Xingzhou traveled all over the country, capturing criminals while also taking time to enjoy local scenery or taste local specialties.

Sometimes when they came across something particularly delicious or novel, Jiang Ning would often buy extra to send back to the Capital City.

She felt somewhat guilty for whisking away their well-behaved son.

Initially, the Qi family members were flattered to receive gifts from Jiang Ning and didn’t know how to reciprocate. They tried to buy gifts for her, but since the couple was traveling, it wasn’t convenient. Hence, they ended up sending Jiang Ning money each time, leaving her at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

Eventually, as they got used to it, the Qi family members were less restrained and occasionally sent messages or made phone calls to check on the two of them.

The interactions between the Qi family and Jiang Ning became increasingly natural and harmonious.

Actually, Jiang Ning and Qi Xingzhou did return occasionally, especially during New Year or other holidays when she would bring Qi Xingzhou back.

Although she never used to celebrate these occasions, she understood the importance of certain holidays to the people.

Every time they returned, it was Qi Chen who drove to pick them up, and this time was no different.

Upon receiving Qi Xingzhou’s message, Qi Chen waited outside the airport at the appropriate time.

When Jiang Ning and Qi Xingzhou appeared, Qi Chen’s usually stern expression softened, and he walked toward them with a smile in his eyes.

"Big brother."

"Big Brother Qi."

Jiang Ning and Qi Xingzhou saw Qi Chen and greeted him in succession.

"I’m here to take you home." Qi Chen said, reaching out to help with their large suitcases, "So much luggage? You brought everything back?"

"Yes, the trip is over, and we probably won’t be going anywhere again soon," Jiang Ning said with a smile.

Qi Chen, hearing this, also smiled, "That’s great. The Capital City has changed a lot in the past couple of years. You can explore more after you return."
