Chapter 1269: Chapter 1289

"Qiqi, Feng Xiling... is he going to die?" Rong You brought up Feng Xiling, a bit worried.

Qiao Qiqi frowned when she heard him mention Feng Xiling, her mood turning heavier. "If he insists on not getting treatment, he won’t live past a month."

Rong You fell silent after hearing that. He just didn’t understand why Feng Xiling was so stubborn, refusing no matter what to let his little sister treat him.

"Don’t overthink it. This is his own choice," Rong You said.

"Actually, I’m not confident I can cure him. He probably knows that, and doesn’t want to put me in a tough spot." Qiao Qiqi let out a long sigh.

"Maybe. Anyway, stop thinking about it. Brother Wu is calling me again, I’ll go see what he wants. You get some good rest."

"What’s wrong? Why the long face? Who pissed you off?" Rong Che ran over and saw his younger brother’s serious expression, and asked curiously.

"It’s nothing. It’s just that our little sister’s already been successfully proposed to, and I’m feeling a bit melancholy," Rong You said.

"What the hell? Qiqi got successfully proposed to by Gu Shili? Did that brat get my permission first? Come on, we’re going to raid his place!"

Rong Che blew up on the spot. Before, she was just his girlfriend, so he’d held back for the time being. But now? She’s straight-up engaged?

Who did he get permission from?

"I’m thinking it’s probably because Qiqi came to see me this time and stayed a bit too long. He must’ve gotten worried, so he wanted to lock things down with her first." Rong You was very good at reading people, so he more or less understood why Gu Shili was in such a rush.

"That still doesn’t fly! How dare he propose without getting us brothers’ approval! We’ve really spoiled him rotten! Is the Rong Family dead or something? I’m telling Big Brother and the others right now." Rong Che was completely bristling, and immediately told the other Brothers about it.

When Rong Yuan and the others heard, they weren’t happy either. Gu Shili was one thing on a normal day, but proposing is a huge deal, and he didn’t even discuss it with them first—just went ahead on his own?

Does he really think the Rong Family has no one?

Even Rong Yuan was angry now, so the Rong Family brothers immediately called Qiao Qiqi and told her to come home, saying there was something important.

Qiao Qiqi was totally baffled. She had no idea what big thing had blown up at home, to make all her Brothers urgently call her back.

"Gu Shili, I can’t stay for dinner, I’ve got to run home. Something big’s happened." Qiao Qiqi hurried into the kitchen, holding up her phone and talking to the man who was cooking.

"What is it? I’ll go with you." Gu Shili turned off the burner at once, getting ready to go back to the Rong Family with her.

"No need, I’ll go see what’s up first. Wait for me to come back and eat, okay? Be good. Mwah." Qiao Qiqi wrapped her arms around him and planted a kiss on his face.

As soon as Qiao Qiqi finished speaking, she turned and ran out.

Gu Shili watched her leave, only heading back after he saw her enter the elevator. He raised a hand to touch his own cheek, then his lips, and stood there grinning like an idiot.

...

When Qiao Qiqi got home, all six Brothers of the Family were gathered.

Five Brothers wore serious expressions; only Rong You was looking at her with worry all over his face.

Qiao Qiqi could only use her eyes to ask Sixth Brother what was going on.

Rong You hesitated, then finally said, "Qiqi, the Brothers know you got proposed to. It’s my fault, I told them without asking you first. I... I didn’t expect them to react like this."

Rong You looked like he knew he’d done something wrong.

"Oh, that. I was planning to tell everyone anyway. I just thought I’d say it after we ate. So there’s nothing else?" Qiao Qiqi ignored the other five Brothers and only looked at Sixth Brother.
