I Am Rich

26

You are not other people.

Actually, he hardly ever heard others say that to him.

In the Qi family, apart from grandfather, his uncles and brothers have always been defensive to him. They are his relatives but also 'other people'.

However, this person in front of him, obviously in terms of the so-called blood, she was 'other people', yet she did not treat him as 'other people'.

Her trust and dependence on him sometimes exceeds his expectations. She always surprised him about it, and apart from that, he actually felt warm.

He felt that he could understand why he always acted differently to her, because from beginning to present her existence was different from others.

"You seem to be running slower." After a while, Guan Zhiyi found herself able to catch up with him without much effort.

Qi Chengyan smiled and said, "I did it to take care of your long legs."

"...... are you mocking me? I can run fast, You don't have to give in." She recalled that when she was running everyday on a diet show, she was able to catch up with Xiao Ran and the others!

So she increased her speed, "I'll wait for you in front!"

Qi Chengyan: "Wait--"

Guan Zhiyi didn't hear him, she just ran away. She ran for a long time, just to prove that she can do it. However it turned out that her sprint didn't last long, after a few more minutes, she could not stand it anymore and stopped in place.

When she stopped and looked back, there was no sign of Qi Chengyan, so she happily rested on a chair beside her.

After resting for a while ...... she felt that something was not right, although she ran fast for a while, bypassed two turns, and widened the distance. But Qi Chengyan can quickly catch up to her with his footsteps. So why did he take so long? she hasn't seen him coming yet.

Guan Zhiyi felt a little uneasy about it, so she got up and walked back. It would be no good if something suddenly happened to him on the road.

Guan Zhiyi ran back, and after finally going around those two turns, two figures appeared not far away.

One was dressed in black sportswear, tall and had long legs, it can only be Qi Chengyan. But the other woman in minimalist sportswear is...who? !

Guan Zhiyi stopped and hid behind a tree to take a look. That woman wore a pantskirt type of sport pants and a tube top for her upper garment. With her two long legs plus slim waist and abdomen…...this, she has lost in terms of appearance.

Guan Zhiyi took a deep breath and stared unhappily at the woman not far away.

What are the two talking about? That woman is smiling too brightly, isn't she?

No, she specially got up early and wore sportswear that brought out all the advantages of her figure today. She didn't do all that just to watch another woman chatting with him ......

Thinking of this, Guan Zhiyi immediately took out her cell phone and called Qi Chengyan.

Soon, she saw someone not far away pick it up.

"Xiao Wu?"

Guan Zhiyi walked forward quickly, and when she reached a suitable place, she sat down and said, "Where are you?"

"I met a friend on the way, where did you run off to."

A friend? Yes, it's normal for people who live in the Imperial Palace to know Qi Chengyan. It's just that she thought the way that hot woman looked at him was not normal.

"Oh ...... then when will you come over ah, I ran too fast, it seems, it seems that my leg sprained a little."

Qi Chengyan froze: "What? Where are you?"

Guan Zhiyi: "I'm right ahead of the path, you can definitely see me when you walk forward."

"Got it, don't move."

"Hmm."

After a while, Guan Zhiyi heard footsteps. With a glance she saw Qi Cheng coming over, and so did the strange woman.

Guan Zhiyi hurriedly pressed down the hat she was wearing on her head, although the chances of this woman recognizing her were not great, nonetheless it would be a bit troublesome in case she did.

"Xiao Wu!"

Qi Chengyan quickly ran up, he anxiously squatted down in front of her and looked at her ankle: "Which leg?"

Guan Zhiyi lowered her head and whispered, "Just the one that had been in a cast before ......"

"Why are you so careless, don't you know that you can't run blindly."

"Oh ...... I know I was wrong."

Qi Chengyan's expression was a little bad: "Does it hurt? Can you stand up?"

"President Qi, I think this little girl's condition is quite serious, should I call the medical team to come over?" The woman next to him said enthusiastically. The medical team she's talking about was a small hospital specially equipped for the Imperial Palace. It was a Private Hospital that only served the high-level VIPs in the area.

Guan Zhiyi knew that there was nothing wrong with her legs, so she certainly can't let that woman make the call: "No! I don't think it's that serious. Brother, you just need to carry me back!"

The woman was stunned: "This...I think it's better to see a doctor."

Qi Chengyan also said: "Don't make trouble, let the doctor come over."

"It's really not necessary." Guan Zhiyi grabbed his clothes and said softly:"I didn't think it was that serious. I just sprained my ankle and couldn't walk very well. I want to go home, you can carry me home first."

"Are you sure you're okay?"

"Yes, I'm fine."

Qi Chengyan looked at her uneasily, and eventually saw her resolute face, so he ended up complying with her first, anyway, it is not too late to let the doctor come over if something really happened later.

He turned around: "Come up."

"Okay!" Guan Zhiyi immediately climbed up and firmly encircled him.

After standing up, Qi Chengyan greeted the woman politely, "Miss Lin, then I'll leave first."

Seeing Qi Chengyan leaving, the woman hurriedly said, "Or should I go with you guys, if there is anything I can still help-"

"I don't have anything you need to help me with, thank you." The woman didn't finish her sentence when she heard the little girl, who looked soft and not aggressive, speak coldly.

Her voice stopped abruptly, she stared in a daze at the person on Qi Chengyan's back.

Although she did not see her face, she could feel the coldness that came from the little girl at that moment.

It was a coldness...that only women could feel.

_______

After leaving behind the strange hot woman, Guan Zhiyi can finally lie on Qi Chengyan's back with a peace of mind.

In fact, she reacted so strongly because she's afraid of this type of woman in the bottom of her heart. It's the same feeling that she has with Yang Mengjia, she felt that a mature man like Qi Chengyan would naturally like that type of woman ...... who can make her feel helpless. She has a baby face, she doesn't have that mature sexy temperament.

Before meeting that woman, she thought that she dressed quite sexy today, but compared with the woman just now, she suddenly looked very childish…

"Did that person just now also live here, I have never seen her before." Guan Zhiyi asked tentatively.

Qi Chengyan walked forward steadily with her on his back: "She just moved here not long ago, it's normal if you haven't seen her."

"Oh... It's such a coincidence that she also runs in the morning. Are you guys familiar with each other?"

"Not really." Qi Chengyan didn't seem to want to talk more about this topic,"Why did you run so fast just now? Did you always run in the morning this way?"

"I'm trying to show you that I can keep up with you..."

"What is there to show?"

"Who told you to say that my legs are short."

Qi Chengyan suddenly didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Didn't I say that you have long legs afterwards."

"You were clearly mocking me then."

"Look, nothing I said was right."

"...Oh, anyway, my legs are definitely not as long as Miss Lin's legs just now. Boss, did you become motionless everytime you see a girl walking? I've waited for you in front for a long time, and didn't see you coming."

Qi Chengyan froze, unbelievably said, "Guan Xiaowu, you have a lot of courage aren't you. What kind of nonsense are you talking about?"

Guan Zhiyi snorted softly, "Isn't what I said right?"

Qi Chengyan glanced back at her:"She is affiliated with the company, and I just happened to meet her."

"Oh, so it's like this."

"Otherwise."

"No, just, I think it's human nature to look at girls' legs."Guan Zhiyi was delighted, and said casually, "Just like my brother, my brother is always caught by me looking at the legs of young ladies on the road. So I just take it as a matter of course that you are also like this."

Qi Chengyan raised his eyebrows slightly: "Your brother?"

Guan Zhiyi was not stressed while talking nonsense about Guan Yuanbai,"Well, yes! So I can understand, it's normal, it's all normal."

______

They didn't run for that long before they finished their morning run today, so when Qi Chengyan carried Guan Zhiyi back to her house it was still very early and there were only one or two maids downstairs in the kitchen preparing breakfast.

Qi Chengyan put Guan Zhiyi on the sofa: "Sit still, I'll go get the medicine box."

"Oh."

Qi Chengyan was as familiar with her house as he is with his own, he easily found the medicine box, then moved over a single sofa bench beside her to sit, and looking at the contents of the medicine box.

"Let's rub it with medicine first, if it hurts again later, you must call a doctor to check, got it?"

"Okay."

Qi Chengyan opened the bruise medicine, just when he wanted to hand it over to her. Suddenly, a long leg lifted up directly in front of him, lay comfortably on top of his thigh.

A slight warmth was separated by the two layers of cloth.

He froze for two seconds and looked at Guan Zhiyi, who innocently said, "I'll see if it still hurts after you apply it for me, and if it still hurts I'll call the doctor."

Qi Chengyan had no intention to help her apply the medicine, so he was really stupefied when the person in front of him naturally thought that he could do it.

"What's wrong, brother, you can't do it?" She tilted her head and looked at him.

Qi Chengyan was speechless, subconsciously lowered his eyes to his thigh, staring at her legs.

Her legs were fair, and they were strikingly white against his black sweatpants.

He didn't know why, her words just now suddenly flashed through his mind: My legs are definitely not as long as Miss Lin's legs just now.

It is indeed not as long as Miss Lin's legs, because her height was much shorter than Miss Lin. Besides it was obvious that the legs in front of him would be several degrees fairer and certainly straighter than that person.

Her agent was right, her legs are just right in proportion. So to say the least, her legs are much better looking than that of Miss Lin.

"What are you doing?" Suddenly, a puzzled voice came from a short distance behind him.

Qi Chengyan's heart jumped and his thoughts were instantly pulled back. The moment he returned to his senses, his whole body was like being poured with cold water. The chill made him straighten his back like he was a criminal.

Where did…..his mind go just now?

"What's wrong with the leg?" Guan Yuanbai came down from the stairs and said unexpectedly, "You guys are going for a run?"

Qi Chengyan's eyes dimmed, and he calmly took off Guan Zhiyi's leg: "We're running in the morning, Xiao Wu sprained her legs."

"Morning run?" Guan Yuanbai looked at Guan Zhiyi in shock, "You can get up?"

Guan Zhiyi was just about to retort something when he saw Qi Chengyan stand up: "You're here just in time, you give her some medicine, I have to leave early for something at the company."

Guan Yuanbai did not doubt him: "Oh, then go ahead."

Qi Chengyan put down the medicine in his hand, took his phone and went out. He walked so fast that he had disappeared even before Guan Zhiyi could react.

"How come I didn't know that you could run in the morning, did you eat the wrong medicine?" Guan Yuanbai sat down in Qi Chengyan position just now, said while opening the medicine, "You can also run until your leg sprained, You're really something else ...... this one?"

Guan Zhiyi stared at the direction where Qi Chengyan left, feeling annoyed in her heart, He hasn't rubbed her legs yet! Didn't he say that she had short legs? Why didn't he measure it himself?

She was so angry... can't believe she was interrupted by her brother. If her brother did not come down, Qi Chengyan would be the one who applied the medicine for her now!

The more Guan Zhiyi thought about it, the more stuffy she became, so her brain was perplexed and she did what she normally wouldn't dare to do at all. That is, when Guan Yuanbai bent down and stretched out his hand, intending to help her apply the medicine, she kicked his hand away!

She kicked a little too hard!

Guan Yuanbai's medicine-soaked hand stopped in the air: "......"

"...... I, If I said I had a knee jerk reaction, would you believe me?" Guan Zhiyi came back to her senses and asked in a small voice.

Guan Yuanbai: "?"

Guan Zhiyi laughed dryly: "Haha, it's strange... I suddenly feel that my ankle doesn't hurt anymore."

"???"

"So I don't think I'll bother you, brother. You deal with a lot of things everyday, I'll do this myself later. Then, I'll go first!"

After Guan Zhiyi finished speaking, she immediately jumped off the sofa, then slipped away from Guan Yuanbai who was on the verge of getting angry, running upstairs at lightning speed.

Guan Yuanbai slowly got up and looked in shock at his wrist that felt vaguely painful from the kick: "Guan, Zhi, Yi!"
