After a while, the sound of a car came from outside. As the sound got farther and farther, Lei Yan also put down the half-eaten fried dough sticks in his hand. In fact, he didn't eat much in the morning, but he just wanted to find an excuse to stay here.
.
Looking at the little breakfast left on the table, Lei Yan was very satisfied. At least this start was much better than he imagined.
It is said that if you want to capture a person's heart, you must first capture their stomach. This saying seems to be quite useful when it comes to women.
Lei Yan was not in a hurry to leave. After breakfast, he tidied up the restaurant and kitchen, and then used the mobile app to buy some fresh ingredients and fruits to fill Xiao Muyou's empty refrigerator.
After that, Lei Yan did not rush to the company after leaving Xiao Muyou's house. Instead, he found a housing agency near Jinxi Garden and talked about his needs for buying a house. By coincidence, there happened to be a second-hand house in Jinxi Garden.
House for sale.
The head of the household is a foreign couple who are now preparing to return to China for development, so they want to put this house on the market for sale. The house has only been renovated for two or three years, and everything inside is quite new.
Because the couple was waiting for money to return to China for investment, the price was a bit lower than the market price. Lei Yan learned about the situation and went to look at the villa again. The key is that Xiao Muyou's villa in this villa is very special.
It's very close, there are five or six villas in the same row, and it takes about two or three minutes to walk.
Lei Yan settled on it immediately and paid a deposit of one million. The rest was waiting for him to sign the house sales contract with the head of the household and receive it all at once, because the head of the household also gave Lei Yan a discount, but even so, the whole house
The villa also cost nearly 100 million.
After everything was done, Lei Yan finally returned to the Feng Group with satisfaction.
The house will be handed over to Lei Yan in about a week. Considering Lei Xin's physical condition, Lei Yan still needs to renovate the villa. It is estimated that he will be able to move in in half a month.
Although Lei Yan hopes to move in immediately, this is already the fastest time, so during this period, he has to get up early and work hard every day to deliver breakfast to Xiao Muyou. However, this is not difficult for Lei Yan, as long as he can
He softened Xiao Muyou little by little, even if he stayed up all night, he would not complain.
Of course, Xiao Muyou didn't know these things at all. At this time, she was competing with her mother.
Xiao Muyou forgot that Xiao Yingxi, her little aunt's birthday, would be in a few days. And because Mas Nian's birthday was only a dozen days later than Xiao Yingxi's, the couple's birthdays were always on the same day every year.
It happened that this year was the 60th birthday in the year of Mars, and the Xiao family was planning to hold a grand party. No, Lu Ziyou specially called Xiao Muyou in advance to ask her to arrange her time for those few days.
Originally it would have been nice to finish the matter, but I didn't expect Lu Ziyou to say something suddenly.
"By the way, let Mu Yi come back together. You said that you have been dating for more than half a year, and it's time to finalize some things. It just so happens that your Aunt Qian is coming back this time. How about setting a date for you to get engaged first?
After the Chinese New Year, we will find a suitable day to get married."
When Xiao Muyou heard this, she suddenly became worried. She and Qiao Muyi were fake in the first place, and now they have made everything clear. However, she hasn't figured out how to tell her family yet. It's better now, mother.
I'm urging you to get married, what should I do?
If Xiao Muyou directly said that she and Qiao Muyi were not together, she could guarantee that her mother would appear in front of her before dark today.
But if it is said that they broke up, then depending on her mother's temperament, she will probably get to the bottom of it. The key is that Xiao Muyou hasn't figured out what excuse to use to tell her family that she and Qiao Muyi have broken up.
After all, this matter was something she wanted from Qiao Muyi, so even if she broke up, it would not damage Qiao Muyi's image. In this case, she had to find reasons from herself. Could it be that she suddenly found out that she didn't love Qiao Muyi?
Is the reason too far-fetched? As for the transfer of love, that is absolutely not allowed. Otherwise, she will have to find someone else to be her love partner.
Lu Ziyou on the other end of the phone shouted impatiently when he saw that his daughter had not responded.
"Xiao Muyou, are you listening to me? What's going on? Did you have a quarrel with Mu Yi? I said, can't you control your temper? Mu Yi is such a good child, why did you end up with someone like you?
Where is the woman?"
Well, Xiao Muyou now extremely doubts whether she is her mother's biological child. How could she talk about her daughter like that? Also, why is her temper bad? Isn't she just a little stubborn and accepting death? Others,
It's actually pretty good.
"Mommy, have you ever said that about your daughter? Okay, I understand, but Muyi has a lot of things going on in the laboratory recently, so he may not have time to come back. I'll discuss it with him first."
I thought this was a good excuse, but Lu Ziyou said it directly.
"Forget it, I'd better give Mu Yi a call. No matter how busy I am at work, I can't delay my life-long event."
When Xiao Muyou heard this, she immediately became anxious. Her mother called Qiao Muyi herself. That was okay. Wouldn't the lie be exposed immediately? She immediately stopped her.
"Mommy, how can any of the girl's parents take the initiative to propose marriage? Okay, Mu Yi is really busy over there. Don't call and disturb him if you have nothing to do. I'll tell him today, okay?"
When Lu Ziyou heard this, she thought about it and realized that it was the same. After all, her daughter was quite outstanding. If she were too proactive, others would think that her precious daughter had some hidden disease.
So, Lu Ziyou gave a warning.
"Okay, you must tell him today, you know? I'll call you again in the evening, don't try to deal with me. Your uncle and aunt's birthday party is quite big this time, and you, as your niece, must be there.
.”
"Yeah, yeah, I know, but didn't the eldest brother go to England recently? Will he and Xiao Xi come back too?"
"I will. I just happened to be back with Xiaochen. Okay, I have something else to do here, so I'll hang up."
After finally dealing with his mother, Xiao Muyou suddenly felt exhausted. He felt that he was not so tired when dealing with those tricky customers. The key was to compete with his mother in a battle of wits and courage. If his brain was a little slow, he might be beaten by his mother.
Seize the loophole.
When Chen Li walked in, he saw Xiao Muyou slumped on a chair with a tired look on her face, and she immediately walked over.
"Mr. Xiao, what's wrong with you?"
Xiao Muyou waved his hands feebly and said.
"It's okay. Just send this pile of documents. Besides, I won't go out for lunch. Bring it to the office."
Xiao Muyou looked at the pile of documents on the table and felt extremely tired again. Therefore, as a company manager, even if he is emotionally hurt, he cannot give himself a vacation, because the consequence of the vacation is that he will not sign when he comes back.
Endless names, endless files.
Chen Li nodded, put away the pile of documents in his hand, and took out the signed documents. However, after three or four minutes, she walked in again, but this time, she had a lunch box in her hand.
"Mr. Xiao, the person downstairs just sent it. They said it was from Mr. Ding Hao of the Feng Group."
When Xiao Muyou heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered who Ding Hao was, Lei Yan's assistant? When the two companies cooperated before, Ding Hao came to Yaohua Cultural Creation frequently.
At this time, Chen Li hadn't reacted yet. He looked at the lunch box in his hand and muttered in confusion.
"What does Special Assistant Ding mean? I came all the way to deliver lunch to you. Feng's Group has entered the catering industry?"
Xiao Muyou listened to Chen Li's words and shook his head speechlessly. As an assistant, she was really smart when she was smart, but she was also really slow when she was slow.
Xiao Muyou didn't bother to explain, so he waved his hand and said.
"Just put your things down. You don't need to buy anything else for lunch."
Chen Li nodded with confusion on her face, but she didn't ask any more questions, because she was a very dedicated assistant and she shouldn't have asked any questions.
After putting down the things, Chen Li left. Xiao Muyou stared at the lunch box on the coffee table in the distance, her heart was confused again. She stared at the documents on the table for more than ten minutes, but she couldn't read a single word.
Finally, Xiao Muyou left the desk directly and came to the sofa.
Opening the lunch box, there are three layers in total. Inside is an exquisite lunch, including Buddha jumping over the wall, white jade meatballs, crystal shrimps, and a refreshing stir-fried vegetable. Next to the lunch box, there is a small box, which contains an exquisite fruit platter.
The freshest fruits of the season.
At this time, Xiao Muyou's cell phone rang. She turned her head and looked, and sure enough, a text message from Lei Yan came.
"Remember to have lunch. I'll pick you up when you get off work in the evening."
Xiao Muyou didn't reply because she didn't plan to see Lei Yan, at least not yet.
But you can’t live up to the delicious food in front of you. I didn’t feel hungry at first, but now that I saw this sumptuous lunch, Xiao Muyou suddenly felt that his appetite increased. Well, only when you are full can you have the strength to work! Xiao Muyou
After comforting myself like this, I started to enjoy the meal.
Lei Yan sat in the office, staring at his phone from time to time. Feng Group and Yaohua Cultural and Creative Industries were not far away. He also waited for Ding Hao to return from delivering lunch before sending a text message to Xiao Muyou, but this time had passed.
It took more than ten minutes, and it showed that the message had been read, but there was no reply.
Lei Yan shook his head helplessly. It seemed that the road to chasing his wife was long. If he had known that he would give in today, why did he refuse like an asshole in the first place? Now that he is fine, he will take the blame.
