Chapter Eleven: Zitian Ming's Worries

  Time went back to the afternoon.

  Qitian Ming is busy working in the office.

  Recently, Qi Tianming plans to invest in a food company and open a chain of barbecue restaurants.

  Wanted to contact the country's largest meat food company, but couldn't figure it out for a while.

  Just worrying, a phone call came in, and it was the instructor of his son's school.

  When she heard the teacher say that her son had already dropped out of school and there was even a withdrawal application signed by herself.

  Qitianming was stunned at the time, what's going on? When did he sign it himself?

  The Dean of Teaching called to ask if Qi Tianming had found another school yet.

  Because at first Qi Ke re-read, Qi Tianming invested a sum of money in school construction library.

  Now Qi Hui is no longer studying, and the school feels a bit embarrassed, so they call to ask about the situation.

  Qitian Ming didn't care about the sponsorship fees, but he couldn't help thinking that his son wasn't studying anymore. For the past few days, however, he had still been carrying his backpack and attending school on time. Where was he actually going?

  He hung up the phone and Qi Tianming started to worry.

  His career was stagnant and his son had problems, Qi Tianming couldn't help but doubt his own abilities.

  "Xiao Wu! Get the car ready!"

  Qitian Ming picked up the phone on the desk and handed it to the driver, then left the office.

  The car was driving aimlessly on the main street of Jiashi City.

  Driver Xiao Wu looked at Qi Tianming's gloomy face and didn't dare say much.

  The car drove to Qi Wei's former middle school, but Qi Tianming didn't get out of the car.

  Instead, she observed her surroundings for a while, thinking about where her son might be.

  Internet cafe?

  Zhitian Ming began to suspect, because now Jiacheng's internet cafes were opening one after another, the atmosphere spread into the campus, and the news often said that children were 'addicted' to the internet, got online addiction, and finally died in an internet cafe without eating for several days and nights.

  At the thought of this, Chi Tianming's tense heart began to thump rapidly.

  Zi Cong has been well-off in food and clothing since he was four years old, and his spending money is dozens of times more than that of other children.

  It's all because Qitian Ming feels guilty in his heart. The child is so young and has no mother, and he is busy working every day.

  Ignoring Zhi Kai, they could only use money as compensation.

  After some thought, Qi Tianming called his secretary and checked Qi Lei's bank card.

  Unexpectedly everything is normal, in recent months there have been only a small amount of expenditures, and in the past half month, Qi Ke has not withdrawn a single penny.

  Zhitian Ming couldn't help but feel that something was amiss.

  Has your son been involved in some kind of illegal criminal activity?

  Whenever he thought of those who went so far as to steal and kill, even committing monstrous crimes, Chi Tianming's heart couldn't calm down.

  "Go, into school!"

  Qitian Ming waved his hand and the car headed towards the school's main gate.

  Because Qitianming had made a donation to the school, the school issued him a free pass for entering and leaving the campus.

  The school gate guard saw Zhitianming's car coming over and immediately pressed the button. The electric school gate opened automatically.

  The car drove into the campus, and after Qitian Ming got out of the car, he rushed straight to the principal's office.

  Qitian Ming and the school principal are also old friends, often playing mahjong and taking baths together.

  "Ah, Old Qi, you're here about Qi Hui's matter, aren't you?"

  The principal was very clever and knew that Qitianming wouldn't enter the Three Treasures Hall for no reason. As soon as Qitianming stepped inside, the principal smiled and welcomed him warmly.

  "Ah!"

  Qitian Ming nodded: "My son is studying at your school, how could I not know anything about him dropping out?"

  "This..."

  The principal pulled out a piece of paper from the drawer and said to Tian Ming, "Isn't this signed by you? I also compared it with our original contract, and the signatures are the same!"

  "Oh?"

  Qitian Ming took over the contract and carefully identified it for a while, but he had no impression of when he signed this.

  Signature?

  Qitian Ming suddenly remembered that on the morning of the first day of school, he had signed something for Qihui, saying it was a notice about the start of school. Could it be this?

  The principal looked at Qi Tianming's appearance and couldn't help but ask in surprise: "Old Qi, could it be a misunderstanding?"

  "It's a misunderstanding! It's a misunderstanding!"

  Qitian Ming said with a serious expression.

  The principal smiled secretly in his heart, it seemed that Qitian Ming still wanted to send his son back to continue studying.

  Hmph, want to continue reading? Then keep paying for sponsorship fees!

  Even if it was in the past, even if it's just for the last half year, you still have to squeeze it out, right?

  "So, will you still come back to school and study?"

  The principal asked tentatively.

  Qitian Ming furrowed his brow and said, "It's not a matter of whether he comes or not, it's that I couldn't find him anywhere, and he dropped out for so long. You're only telling me now! Doesn't your school take any responsibility?"

  "Accountable! Accountable!"

  The principal said: "I just came back to work today and they told me about this, you see, I didn't arrange for someone to call you right away!"

  "What about him then? Where will he go?"

  "Or else!"

  The principal said seriously: "I'll go ask his class teacher?"

  Zhitian Ming immediately agreed.

  The principal sneered in her heart. When Qi Lei left at that time, he had offended their class teacher. The class teacher was now pregnant with her own child and couldn't help but speak out for herself.

  What's more, Qi Lei's head teacher cried and made a scene, saying that if this matter was not resolved, he would tell his own wife and expose the affair between the two.

  Alas, the principal is also in a difficult position!

  A phone call later, Qi Ke's head teacher soon arrived at the principal's office.

  That head teacher started talking about Qi Ke's bad things as soon as he entered the door!

  Qitian Ming was so angry he wanted to hit someone, if it weren't for seeing that she was pregnant, he would have kicked her a long time ago.

  "Teacher, educating children is our responsibility as adults, but if the child runs away, then we adults are derelict in our duty! I admit that I'm not a qualified father, but what about you? Now that the child can't be found, what am I supposed to do?"

  Qitianming stabilized his emotions and stared at the 'female' teacher, saying.

  The female teacher turned her head away and coldly snorted: "How would I know where he went? Maybe, humph, not saying anything else!"

  "Speak!"

  Qitian Ming shouted in a stern voice, showing his magnanimity towards employees who made mistakes.

  "You, you, principal, look at him!"

  The female teacher suddenly covered her stomach and pretended to be spoiled in front of the principal.

  The principal had no choice but to say: "If not, then report it."

  "Just report it and let the police handle it!"

  The female teacher immediately echoed in agreement.

  "What's the report?"

  "Alright, if the principal doesn't care about his own and the school's reputation, I'll call my lawyer too. Principal, let's meet in court!"

  "Hey, wait..."

  The principal was frightened as soon as he heard what Qi Tianming said, earlier his brain had been itching to report him, but if he really did that, he would be finished!

  Qitian Ming sat back in his chair and stared at the principal, "Alright? Then Principal, give me a solution?"

  "I, I..."

  The principal hesitated for half a day and said to the female teacher: "Let's just say it was the woman!"

  Zhitian Ming listened and said, "Huh? What's going on? Do these two dogs know something?"

  The female teacher didn't mince words and boldly said: "Qí Huì goes to the Beifang Music Store every day, you can go find him!"

  "Oh?"

  Zhitian Ming immediately stood up and threatened: "If you cheat me! Wait and see!"

  The car drove out of the school gate and headed straight for the Beifang Piano Store.

  Zhitian Ming thought a lot on the way home, it seems that this school really can't be attended anymore. Not to mention that Zhi Pao found out, just his own attitude today, I'm afraid that even the vampire principal would find it difficult for Zhi Pao to go back to school again.

  Bei Fang Qinxing, Qi Tianming stood alone at the 'door', looking at the musical instruments inside, wondering if Qi Hui was really inside.

  At this time, a brown-haired and white-clothed cute girl walked out of the music store and said to Qitian Ming: "Sir, are you buying an instrument? Please come in."

  Looking at this girl, Qi Tianming felt a little surprised and amazed.

  The whole person seemed to have entered another world.

  It seems like someone is singing "Only You..." in their own ear.

  "Sir..."

  Until the other party shouted his name again, Zhitianming didn't come back to himself.

  "Oh, you're the one..."

  "Boss's wife! I'm Guan Xiaoyue!"

  Guan Xiao Yue smiled and said with a smile.

  "Oh! Boss's wife? Are you married?"

  Qitian Ming asked in surprise.

  "No, this is opened by my boyfriend!"

  "Oh! Boyfriend!"

  In Zitian's heart, there was a thread of sudden enlightenment and clarity.

  Don't know why I'm so relaxed.

  "Excuse me, I'm looking for Qi Kuai, do you know him?"

  Only then did Zhitianming reveal the purpose of his trip, and his tone also became much softer.

  "He went to Longcheng to participate in the competition, are you his?"

  Guan Xiaoyue asked.

  "Oh! I am his father, Qi Tianming!"

  Qitian Ming smiled and extended his hand, Guan Xiao Yue also politely shook hands with Qitian Ming.

  So tender, so smooth, so white!

  Qitian Ming suddenly felt an inexplicable surge of emotion, but still managed to ask: "Did Qihui and your boyfriend go together?"

  "Ah! Today is the final, Xiao Kai has a lot of talent, this time he should be able to get the top prize!"

  "Yes! He inherited his mother's good genes, what a pity..."

  Zhitian Ming's face showed a hint of disappointment.

  Until Guan Xiao Yue's face was full of confusion, Qi Tian Ming continued to say: "Unfortunately, his mother can't see all this."

  "Huh?"

  "Xiao Hui's mom..." Guan Xiao Yue said in surprise.

  "He passed away when he was nine years old..."

  Upon hearing this, Guan Xiao Yue's eyes actually turned red, "Xiao Kuang has never said that you two have always been single?"

  "Hmm!" Qitian Ming nodded, "I didn't think of finding it again either, but..."

  "Today I'm telling you all this, actually, I feel that you're very similar to his mother when she was young..."

  Guan Xiao Yue's face turned red, seemingly understanding the implied meaning behind Qi Tian Ming's words.

  The two of them were stunned for a long time before they realized that their hands were still clasped together.

  "Hehe! Sorry, really sorry!"

  Qitian is getting older next year and has become like a big boy.

  On the way home, Qitian Ming hummed a little tune, which was rare for him.

  Driver Xiao Wu felt much more relaxed while driving.

  "Xiao Wu, pull over for a second."

  The car stopped by the side of the road, and Qitian Ming got out and walked into a mobile phone store.

  Find a counter and ask the staff directly: "Is there a mobile phone around 1,000 yuan for me to choose from?"

  "Sir, how is this Nokia XXX?"

  The salesperson took out the mobile phone sample and smiled as he asked.

  "Get going, pack up!"

  Qitian Ming paid the money with relish and took over the phone.

  After leaving the sales office, he took out his mobile phone and called his secretary, "Get me a corporate card, I'm going to pick it up now."

  He went to the company to pick up his card and returned home to burn three sticks of incense for his wife, saying a few words.

  Then went downstairs to the living room, poured a glass of wine and sat on the sofa waiting for Qiwei to come back.
