Everyone walked to the parking area together, and the little great-aunt and Sasa got into the back seat of Xiao Xingyu's car, while the two pairs of adults stood in front of the open trunk.
"I'm so sorry. I invited you to a meal and ended up having an unhappy meal. There are so many untouched dishes." Zhou Xia looked apologetically at the row of beautifully packaged bags in the trunk, and then took another look.
Geng Jun was carrying two bags and was worried, "How can we solve these problems? Really."
She turned to Zhang Moyan and asked: "Moyan, do you usually cook at home? These hot ones should taste as good as freshly made. However, Brother Xingyu is fine, but the little aunt and grandma and
Sasha never eats twice-cooked dishes..."
Zhang Moyan heard this and bent over to pick up a packing bag: "I think it's too much. Please take more and go. Don't waste it!"
Geng Jun held down the bag she wanted to take: "Don't take it, we still have two big bags and we don't know what to do!"
week
"Operation CD-ROM takes care of food and responds to the government's call. It's a good thing." Xiao Xingyu took Zhang Moyan's arm back from the bag that he shared with Geng Junqian. "Who knew that eating a plate of Chinese food is hard work?"
Have you passed? "Zhu Xi's Family Instructions" famously said, "A porridge and a meal are hard-earned thoughts, and half a thread of constant thoughts are hard to come by." Whoever threw these abalones and sea cucumbers would be struck by lightning. You know that there are still
How many African refugees have had one meal without another?”
Zhang Moyan: "..." (Do you need to hold my hand all the time?)
Zhou Xia: "..." (Brother Xingyu really knows everything from ancient times to modern times.)
Geng Jun: "..." (Did he have another idea?)
"But it's a waste if you can't eat that much..." Zhang Moyan struggled secretly, but failed.
"Look at your unfilial daughter, you don't even have parents in your heart. Shouldn't you give some of such good ingredients to your parents to enjoy?" Xiao Xingyu held her finger and pointed at the packaging bags.
Zhang Moyan's head thumped and his eyes widened: "...my parents?"
Zhou Xia agreed heartily: "Yes, Brother Xingyu is very thoughtful! Mo Yan, there are also treasured pigeon soup and roasted deer tendon here. They are very nourishing dishes. It would be perfect to give them to uncles and aunts!"
Geng Jun looked at Zhang Moyan's reaction, lightly bumped Xiao Xingyu with his shoulder, and whispered: "Not bad!"
"You should learn a little bit!" Xiao Xingyu replied in the same low voice.
Zhang Moyan came back to her senses and said politely: "This is not good. This is your treat for entertaining guests. My parents will definitely not want it."
"The guest we are entertaining is you, so what does it matter! Besides, Brother Xingyu never takes others' things for free." Zhou Xia rescued Zhang Moyan's hand from Xiao Xingyu's iron claws: "Okay.
Brother Yu, aren't you hot? Why do you keep holding Mo Yan in your hands as if she can fly!"
Xiao Xingyu smiled and said to her heart that she can really fly. Do you believe it or not?
Zhang Moyan seemed to want to say something more, Geng Jun smiled and said: "Miss Zhang, can't you see? We, Young Master Xiao, just want to find an opportunity to contact your parents and establish a relationship? It's rare, but I think we can make it happen.
This is his kindness!"
Zhang Moyan turned to look at Xiao Xingyu, as if asking "Really?" Xiao Xingyu raised one eyebrow and nodded lightly towards her.
Somehow, Zhang Moyan's heart, which had been beating wildly since just sitting at the dining table, now stalled even more.
Why did she have no memory of Zhou Xia and Geng Jun's farewell to Zhang Moyan? When she came to her senses, she saw Xiao Xingyu opening the passenger door and stepping in with his long legs.
With such a natural and smooth posture, she suddenly remembered that this man was drinking at the table today!
Now she is sitting in the passenger seat so obediently... So, he had already made plans to let her be the driver as soon as he came on board.
In fact, all he had to do was call a driver and the man's plan would be in vain. However, it seemed that there was no need to be so deliberate.
Zhang Moyan had no intention of being rebellious, so he took advantage of the situation and got into the driver's seat.
As soon as she sat down and closed the door, the 1.88 meter tall young master Xiao who was frail and unable to take care of himself in the passenger seat immediately leaned over and started the car for her. Without saying a word, he just smiled beautifully and then lay back down contentedly.
At this moment, they didn't exchange a word, but Zhang Moyan felt a little flower of happiness blooming in his heart.
"Mo Yan," Xiao Xingyu leaned lazily on the back of his chair and flicked his phone with his slender fingers, "What is the address of my uncle and aunt? Let me guide you."
Zhang Moyan paused with his hand pressing on the safety belt and looked up at Xiao Xingyu.
The two looked at each other and froze. The sudden stillness of the air caused Sasa and the little aunt in the back to stop what they were talking about.
"What's wrong?" Xiao Xingyu smiled, "I said something right, right? I just said uncle and aunt, not my father and my mother, right?"
Zhang Moyan: "..." (Do you think this is what I meant?)
The little aunt and grandma looked at Sasa in confusion, Sasa was silent in thought.
"What you said is true," Zhang Moyan felt faintly nervous and swallowed, "...want to go to my parents' house?"
Xiao Xingyu didn't understand why there was some inexplicable guilt in Zhang Moyan's voice. He put away the cynical smile on his face, sat upright and approached her: "Of course I'm telling the truth, I happen to have two bottles left in the car.
Liquor. There is an ATM 800 meters down the road. I can withdraw money. I may not be able to withdraw much money at night..."
"20,000 yuan!" Sasa added.
Xiao Xingyu nodded to express his gratitude, and then continued: "The meeting gift of 20,000 yuan is a bit too small, but the courtesy is light but the affection is heavy. The main reason is that it is better to choose the day than to hit the day. I will make up for it later!"
Zhang Moyan looked at Xiao Xingyu: "What did you say?"
"Mo Yan," Xiao Xingyu's tone turned low and gentle: "I especially want your parents to get in touch with me more. Maybe they will like me if they get in touch with me more. After all, I am quite likable. But, if you
If you say 'you're not allowed to go', then I won't go. Or...it doesn't matter if I don't go to the place."
Plop!
"Ouch!"
There was a sound of someone tumbling over from the back seat.
"What's going on with you guys, Sasa?" Xiao Xingyu frowned and looked back.
"It's okay, brother Xingyu, I'm just going to kneel down for you," Sasa stood up on the back of the front seat, "Oh my god! Brother, do you know how charming that look and tone you just said is so charming? If you weren't my brother, I would die.
Gonna get you!"
"Come on," Xiao Xingyu reached out and pulled up the little aunt and grandma who were lying on the ground together. "If I weren't your brother, we wouldn't recognize him."
Sa Sa rubbed her knees and looked at Zhang Moyan with emotion: "Sister Moyan, I can see that you have completely won the sniper battle against my brother! Not only did you successfully capture my brother's mountain,
, and you have become the king of the mountain with great pride, and my brother has reached the point where he just looks at your eyes and listens to your orders."
Xiao Xingyu bit his lower lip as he listened. He was about to say a few words of punishment when he heard Zhang Moyan say: "No, no, Sasa, don't be so exaggerated. Your brother..." Zhang Moyan looked at Xiao Xingyu.
After a quick glance, he seemed to think about it, and then said slowly, "He is still the king."
Xiao Xingyu loosened his teeth, pursed his lips and smiled: "Forget it, don't bother me, anyone with a discerning eye can see my family status."
Zhang Moyan: "..."
"So, what is the address of your uncle and aunt's house? You may not need any navigation to go to your parents' house, but that's not important. What's important is that I want to record it!" Xiao Xingyu shook his phone easily, and this simple
The action in the dim light inside the car simply kills all the mobile phone advertisements.
Zhang Moyan paused for more than ten seconds. Xiao Xingyu's intentions were self-evident. In these ten seconds, countless torrents collided in his mind. The air was unusually quiet, and Xiao Xingyu behaved in a very extreme way.
He waited patiently, and she even had the feeling that if she didn't speak for an hour, he would also wait for an hour.
Give it a chance!
A very loud voice drowned out the countless torrents in my mind.
It’s both for him and for yourself!
He is different! From what he said to Xiao Huai tonight, we can know that his attitude towards the Chen and Geng families is friendly.
He is very powerful! So powerful that he can definitely lead him out of mysterious predicaments.
Also, I really want to tell him everything! Although I shouldn’t let him be tainted by my messed up life script, I really want him to know all my grievances...
Well, he is indeed likable.
At this moment, Zhang Moyan finally understood the reason for the surging heartbeat that started at the dinner table.
"Mo Yan, mother, where are we going?" the clear voice of the little great-aunt broke the freeze. It must have been too long, and the child couldn't bear it any longer.
"I'll call my parents first to talk."
Zhang Moyan looked for her cell phone and lowered her head, losing sight of each other, but the joy that instantly overflowed in the car seemed to fall into her eyes.
beep--
beep--
beep--
Zhang Moyan first called the landline at home. After more than twenty calls, no one answered, she looked at the time and said to herself: "It's already 8:30, why is there no one? I'll call their mobile phone and check."
"Well, try it." Xiao Xingyu responded.
Zhang Moyan dialed Zhang Feng's number again. First it rang three times but was cut off. Then when he called again, his phone turned off.
Zhang Feng never refuses Zhang Moyan's calls. Even when the company is in a meeting, he will answer the call and ask her to call back later, and he will never turn off her phone after calling her for the second time.
A strange uneasiness rolled into Zhang Moyan's heart, but there was absolutely nothing that could be seen from her surface.
She dialed Huang Qin's cell phone again. After more than a dozen rings, Huang Qin's voice finally came through: "Hello?"
"Mom," Zhang Moyan breathed a sigh of relief, her uneasiness disappearing, "Aren't you at home? I just called home and no one answered."
"Oh," Huang Qin said, "What are you calling for? We are visiting Nanjing these two days!"
"You went to Nanjing? I didn't hear anything from you."
"Oh, we made a temporary decision."
"Oh, that's it." Zhang Moyan suddenly felt a little disappointed, "I originally wanted to go over and see you. Since you are out of town, forget it. I will go home when you come back."
"You don't have to come back," Huang Qin said quickly, "Oh, we won't go back to Shenhai for the time being. We have visited Nanjing and will go to Yangzhou and Wuxi. Some of our old acquaintances are going to visit us. Wait until we come back.
Contact you!”
"Ah?" Zhang Moyan was a little surprised, "You are going to have such a big time, so you should pay attention to your grandparents' health, and don't make your schedule too full. Many of the check-in spots for Internet celebrities are..."
"Oh, don't worry. Someone called me. I won't tell you for now. We'll contact you later!" Huang Qin said and hung up the phone.
Zhang Moyan held the phone in confusion for a while, and then curled her lips helplessly: "It's getting more and more like a child!"
"Where are your parents traveling outside?" Xiao Xingyu turned his head and asked.
"Yes," Zhang Moyan sighed unconsciously, "so I don't have to give them food. What a coincidence."
"It's okay, the old man's love for traveling means he's in good health." Xiao Xingyu's tall figure was bathed in the light from the roof of the car. He smiled and slightly bent his eyes, and added, "Next time!... Let's go first
go home."
Zhang Moyan put away her mobile phone and started the completely unfamiliar GLE under the guidance of the on-site commentator. She slowly backed the car out of the parking space and slowly drove out of the small bungalow. She was so focused on driving the new car that she spoke little.
Not a few words were said along the way, let alone that there would be no next time.
