You clearly said that there is no one else at home tonight!
"Mistress, I helped you bring your future wife home!"
When the old lady saw that the other party was trying to hang up the phone, she said hurriedly: "This is different, you will definitely like it!"
"Although she is one year younger than Qian Yue, she is pretty. You also know Jing Xi's violin teacher."
Old Mrs. Yu was immersed in joy, remembering the indifferent and indifferent way Yu Shaoting looked when she entered Bai Xiao's house yesterday, and taught her kindly: "I don't care about the past with you anymore. I don't care about your past."
What kind of attitude do you have towards Teacher Bai? You have to be more enthusiastic tonight!"
"About what time will dinner be served?" Yu Shaoting only replied.
As soon as Mrs. Yu heard this, she knew there was something going on and couldn't wait to say: "At half past six, you can come over earlier and chat with me."
"By the way, before you come here, go to Shengyi Gallery and pick up the lily oil painting for me!" the old lady asked before hanging up the phone.
The old lady probably planned to give the painting to Bai Xiao. Yu Shaoting was happy to see the result and put the phone down. Jing Xing knocked on the door and came in: "Mr. Yu, are you still going to the dinner tonight?"
In fact, Jing Xing had already stood at the door for a while, waiting for Yu Shaoting to hang up the phone before knocking on the door.
Mr. Yu seemed to be in a good mood. From the phone call just now, Jing Xi probably guessed that it was Mrs. Yu who asked Mr. Yu to go home for dinner.
"There are some important things at home tonight, please ask Lin Qian and Mr. Liu to go over and deal with them."
Jing Xing was a little surprised by Yu Shaoting's friendly attitude, and immediately nodded and said, "Okay... okay, I'll make arrangements right away."
Just as he turned to leave, Yu Shaoting asked him again: "Besides flowers, what kind of gift do you usually give to your girlfriend?"
————————————
Bai Xiao knew that he had been tricked by the old lady of the Yu family again when he heard the "Pray for Blessing".
When the old lady leaned on her to help her get into the car, she made it clear that her family had something to do tonight and would not come back for dinner.
Otherwise Bai Xiao would not have come to Yu's house so blatantly and sat in his living room drinking tea.
The aftertaste of the tea in the entrance was a bit bitter on the tip of the tongue. Looking at the figure shaking on the floor at the door, Bai Xiao thought to himself: What a fate!
The nanny had already run to the door, received several shopping bags, and put the slippers at the entrance: "Miss."
Yu Yiwei changed into cotton and mopped it up, smiling brightly, like a Phalaenopsis blooming in winter, bright and clean yet arousing pity.
Bai Xiao suddenly understood why Pei Qiyou was attracted to Yu Yiwei again. It was not only Yu Yiwei's family background, but also the innocence and innocence in her. Her good family background made her less social habits and philistines, revealing the vitality and playfulness of a girl.
It seems like I'm carefree at all times.
"Qiyou is still at the company, I'll be there in a while..." Yu Yiwei just said that when she saw the uninvited guest in the living room.
Bai Xiao didn't want to stay any longer. As soon as he put down the water glass and stood up, he heard Yu Yiwei ask unhappily: "What are you doing at my house?"
There are many reasons why Yu Yiwei doesn't like Bai Xiao. For example, Bai Xiao caused her to be kidnapped. For example, Bai Xiao used to be Pei Qiyou's assistant. For example, Bai Xiao has a similar face to hers. The clash of faces is much more serious than the clash of clothes. She has pursued her since she was a child.
She is unique and cannot tolerate this.
Moreover... Yu Yiwei's intuition told her that the relationship between this woman and Pei Qiyou was not simple, although she found no evidence. Just like Yu Yiwei rejected Bai Xiao, Bai Xiao also didn't like the eldest lady of the Yu family very much.
So facing Yu Yiwei's extremely unfriendly attitude, Bai Xiao ignored her and said directly to the nanny: "If the old lady is okay, I'll leave first."
The nanny went to the bedroom to check on the old lady and came out quickly: "Ms. Bai, the old lady asked you to come in."
When Bai Xiao went upstairs, Yu Yiwei asked the nanny a little unhappy: "How did she know grandma?"
"I don't know about this either. The old lady's waist is twisted. This Miss Bai sent her back."
————————————
When Bai Xiao entered the bedroom, he saw Mrs. Yu lying on the bed, rubbing her waist with one hand and yelling, which seemed like a bluff.
"If you still feel pain, apply some medicine. Since you are already home, I will go back too."
Mrs. Yu turned her head and looked at Bai Xiao who was standing aside with slight dissatisfaction: "My waist is still hurt."
"...Then I will take you to the hospital." Bai Xiao realized that the old lady was making it clear that she would put the responsibility for falling down the stairs on her head.
The old lady looked at Bai Xiao and knew what she was thinking, and hummed: "I think you just want to throw me into the hospital and walk away. Besides, I won't do anything to you, just to thank you."
Send me back, I want to keep you for a meal."
"Your family members are all back. It's inconvenient for me to stay here any longer. I'll treat you to this meal when you have time."
The old lady looked confused: "Is anyone at home here?"
Bai Xiao looked at the half-serious and half-false expression of the old lady, and glanced at her freely twisting waist: "I'm really leaving, you have a good rest."
Seeing that Bai Xiao was not polite, the old lady was really ready to leave. She was anxious and reached out to pull Bai Xiao: "Hey~~ don't leave, I haven't finished speaking yet..."
This is the first time that the mistress has "obediently" come home for a blind date. If Bai Xiao leaves now, where will she conjure up a beautiful girl for him?
Bai Xiao was unexpectedly hugged by someone's legs from behind. His whole body's center of gravity was unstable and he stumbled back——
A scream sounded from the bedroom.
Bai Xiao lowered his head and found that he was actually sitting on the old lady. He quickly stood up and asked, "How are you?"
Old Mrs. Yu held on to her unable to move waist and bared her teeth. It was really twisted this time!
——————————
When the car arrived at the entrance of Shengyi Gallery, Yu Shaoting stopped Jing Xing who was about to get out of the car: "I'll get it myself. Give me the car key. You can go back by yourself."
The phone in his trouser pocket started to vibrate again. Yu Shaoting glanced at it and didn't press it, but turned it to silent.
Jing Xing got out of the car and looked at the man who opened the door of the gallery and entered, muttering to himself that if he had asked Mr. Yu to get the paintings by himself before, he would have been embarrassed.
Thinking of the gift he just bought in the jewelry store, Jing Xing couldn't help but wonder how Miss Bai managed to conquer such a difficult man as Mr. Yu?
——————————
After picking up the painting quickly, Yu Shaoting met Su Manrong in the gallery.
Su Manrong stood in front of an oil painting, lost in thought, wondering what she was thinking.
Yu Shaoting had a good impression of Su Manrong, but he still walked over and said hello: "Sister-in-law."
Hearing someone calling her, Su Manrong turned around and saw Yu Shaoting. She was quite surprised, but she understood when she saw the painting in his hand: "Come to help mom get the painting?"
The old lady likes painting very much. She often paints oil paintings at home and takes them to the gallery to frame them and give them away, but she has never seen anyone willing to hang them up.
"Sister-in-law, come to see the painting?" Yu Shaoting glanced at the painting on the wall. It showed the back of a man at dusk, slender and tall.
Below the painting is written the name of the artist - white.
A painting by Su Manrong can already be purchased for a million dollars, but the brush of this painting looks green. It should have been painted when she first started painting.
Yu Shaoting was about to leave, but Su Manrong took the initiative to stop him. He turned around and said, "Sister-in-law, is there anything else?"
In fact, Yu Shaoting and Yu Zhengdong don't look alike, but the second child is quite similar to Yu Zhengdong, perhaps because they both have a military temperament.
"At noon on Shunjing Road, I saw a woman sitting in your car from a distance. Is she the one dad mentioned?"
Now probably the entire Yu family knows that the third child of the Yu family has fallen in love with a divorced woman.
Yu Shaoting did not deny it, but his calm attitude made Su Manrong unable to continue, so she had to change the subject: "It seems that Mom wants to introduce someone to you tonight."
"I know." Yu Shaoting responded calmly, without seeming to be reluctant.
Su Manrong couldn't understand this uncle. If he liked the divorced woman, why would he go home for a blind date so happily?
She was not a talkative person, and this brother-in-law had a bad temper, so Su Manrong didn't say anything more to avoid causing any unpleasantness.
But Yu Shaoting asked before leaving: "Sister-in-law's hometown is in Yunnan?"
Su Manrong was stunned for a moment, and then replied in an understatement: "Yes, your eldest brother and I met there, what's the matter?"
"I just suddenly thought of asking." Yu Shaoting answered even more perfunctorily than Su Manrong: "Sister-in-law, please take my car back to the compound."
The second half of what Yu Shaoting said was actually not sincere, and Su Manrong would not ask for trouble: "No, I drove here by myself, you can go back first."
Yu Shaoting nodded, picked up the painting and left.
When he got back to the car, he took out his mobile phone. There were already a dozen missed calls and a text message on it, all from one person.
"Why don't you answer the phone? I hurt your mother's waist and she won't let me leave. Come here quickly."
Yu Shaoting didn't reply anything. He opened the storage compartment in the car and threw his cell phone in.
——————————
Bai Xiao hid in the bathroom of Yu's house and made many calls to Yu Shaoting without turning off the phone, but no one answered.
Mrs. Yu's voice sounded outside: "I said it takes so long to twist a towel?"
Bai Xiao put away her mobile phone and went out with a towel. If she could leave cruelly at first because she knew that the old lady was mostly pretending, then now, the old lady was really crushed by her. Bai Xiao
A hot towel was applied to the old lady's waist, and the old lady shouted for oranges again.
As soon as Bai Xiao left the bedroom, she saw Yu Zhongxiao coming upstairs in a dusty training uniform, and a bad premonition came over her.
Yu Zhongxiao also saw her. Although he was surprised, he just nodded and greeted her with a smile, and then went back to the room to take a shower.
First it was Yu Yiwei, then Yu Zhongxiao...
Bai Xiao felt more and more that the old lady's statement "There is no one in my house tonight" was unbelievable, and she wanted to leave more and more.
She thought she had to leave after taking oranges for the old lady, but as soon as she turned around the jogging platform, she saw the person she least wanted to see.
Bai Xiao felt that this might be her retribution. Who made her have a bad idea when she saw Yu Yiwei just now?
She was thinking at the time, would Pei Qiyou be afraid if his ex-wife sat at the same table with his unknowing fiancée and her fiancée's family?
"Qiyou, are you here?" Yu Yiwei changed into home clothes and ran out of the living room like a happy bird. Then regardless of the public gaze, she jumped on Pei Qiyou, wrapped her hands around his neck, and sandwiched her legs.
He tilted his head and squinted his beautiful eyes, looking playful and charming.
Pei Qiyou was knocked back slightly, but he still caught her, bowed his head and hugged her with a smile.
"Why so late?" Yu Yiwei complained with her little mouth pouted.
"I passed by a store selling the Four Treasures of the Study and thought there was a good Duan Inkstone, so I bought it for my grandpa."
Bai Xiao found that her concentration was still not enough, and she still couldn't face them without any emotion at all. In other words, she was not an open-minded person to begin with. Seeing them loving each other, her chest felt as uncomfortable as a blockage.
She felt like she was outnumbered by the crowd, but she also knew that it had nothing to do with whether she loved her or not.
"Miss Bai?" It was Aunt Zhang who called out, and the wise couple at the door turned to look over and saw Bai Xiao standing there.
Bai Xiao didn't look at the two of them anymore and went downstairs to the kitchen. Behind him was Yu Yiwei's voice: "Why hasn't she left yet?"
——————————
When Bai Xiao came out of the kitchen, there was no one in the living room. Just as Bai Xiao was about to go upstairs, someone pulled her arm.
Pei Qiyou didn't know when he was standing in the corner outside the kitchen, pursed his thin lips, and pulled her into the bathroom next to her.
After closing the door, Bai Xiao shook off his hand: "What are you doing? I want to go out."
Pei Qiyou pressed the door with his hand, his face was a little gloomy, and he was irritable inside. He asked coldly: "If you have something to do with me, why are you looking for the Yu family?"
Bai Xiao knew that he had misunderstood. Besides being angry, she also felt aggrieved by being humiliated. She took a deep breath and looked into his sullen eyes: "We have known each other for so many years. It turns out that I am this kind of person in your heart. After all, you have never
Have you ever understood me, or have you changed?"
Such a sentence was more powerful than any accusation or curse. She almost completely denied the relationship that had existed for twenty years.
Pei Qiyou's hand holding her arm was a little stiff.
"Don't worry, since I'm willing to sign the divorce agreement, I won't pester you anymore."
Bai Xiao pushed him away, opened the door and went out. As soon as he went upstairs, he saw Yu Zhongxiao who had been standing at the guardrail of the corridor for an unknown amount of time.
——————————
"You want to leave?" Old Mrs. Yu suddenly lost her mood for eating oranges: "Didn't you just say you wouldn't leave? Are you lying to me emotionally?"
Bai Xiao couldn't help but retort: "Then you lied to me and said there was no one else at home tonight?"
As Bai Xiao's eyes turned red, the old lady was immediately frightened: "What's going on? Is someone at home bullying you?"
"No." After saying these two words in a dull tone, Bai Xiao turned around and left the bedroom.
Poor old lady, it was such a cold day that she didn't even have time to put on her slippers, so she hurriedly chased her out in her thin pajamas, "Hey! Hey! Wait!"
Bai Xiao went downstairs to get her bag, went to the entrance to change her shoes, opened the door and walked out. She accidentally bumped into someone who had just come in from outside.
"Old man!" Mrs. Yu saw a chaotic scene at the door when she got downstairs.
Bai Xiao held on to the shoe cabinet next to her to keep from falling. After listening to the old lady's words, she looked up and saw clearly that the heart of the person who was staggered by her was tense.
Wearing a dark green straight military uniform, with the rank of general on the epaulettes, gray hair, and a face that was frequently photographed on the Central Broadcasting Network, because he was hit by Bai Xiao, the colonel behind him quickly stepped forward to support him, and shouted "chief"
He panicked and alarmed other people in the room.
On the second floor, Yu Zhongxiao, Yu Yiwei and Pei Qiyou came downstairs one after another. The old lady had already run to the entrance: "Are you injured?"
In fact, it's not Bai Xiao's fault that the two of them bumped into each other, because Yu Zhanming came in very quickly and took such long steps that he didn't even see Bai Xiao coming out.
"What are you doing so recklessly? Didn't you see anyone?" Yu Zhanming's stern scolding frightened Yu Yiwei, who was about to step forward, to stop.
Bai Xiao looked at Yu Zhanming, who was being cared about by Mrs. Yu and the colonel. He would be lying if he said he wasn't nervous. Yu Zhanming looked more majestic than on TV, with a tall and straight figure, a straight face, and sharp eyes.
Bai Xiao could clearly feel Yu Zhanming's anger at this moment.
Since he bumped into someone and heard Yu Zhanming's angry roar, Bai Xiao said, "I'm sorry, I didn't notice you coming in."
Yu Zhanming pushed the colonel away, frowned and glanced sideways at her: "Didn't you notice that your eyes are on your head?"
Bai Xiao was choked, but the old lady spoke for her: "Isn't this careless?"
Bai Xiao felt that her situation was embarrassing enough, "I won't disturb you." She bowed apologetically to Yu Zhanming and started to leave. As soon as she opened the door, she forgot to move.
Yu Shaoting stood at the door. Under the halo of the wall lamp at the door, his brows became clearer and clearer. His black eyes were deep and bright. He seemed to have not seen Bai Xiao blocking the door and glanced inside.
