Old Man Ruan and Mu Shaoling just lost two games of chess. Old Man Ruan couldn't laugh or cry, and touched Zhan Bai's face, "But at least I'm better than your great-grandfather!"
"Who said that? Shao Ling learned his chess skills from me. You can't even beat him, so why are you better than me?" Mr. Mu glared at his beard, looking dissatisfied.
"The best is better than the old. Shao Ling is much better than you. If you don't believe it, you stay here tonight. I will keep playing with you until you are convinced." Old Ruan said. He usually plays chess by himself, which is inevitably boring. It's too much.
He admired the old man and became very interested.
"Just do it. I will kill you to pieces after dinner!" Mr. Mu is not convinced and must win back.
Mu Shaoling reminded them, "Let's eat first."
"That's right, eat first, the child won't be hungry." Old Ruan patted the table and stood up with the crutch next to him.
Since the operation, his health has deteriorated a lot and he relies on crutches to walk. Ruan Bai walked out of the kitchen and immediately stepped forward to help him.
Old Ruan patted Ruan Bai's hand and said happily: "You're so good, I can just go by myself."
"Grandpa, just let me hold you." Ruan Bai insisted on helping him to the dining table.
Ruan's family is small and the dining table is not big, so the children eat around the coffee table while the adults eat at the table.
Ruan Bai looked at the happy family and thought silently in his heart that he must come back to eat with the elderly more often.
After dinner, Mr. Mu decided to stay here for one night and play chess with Ruan Bai's grandfather.
Mu Shaoling had no objection. After waiting for a while, he took the cross stitch that Ruan Manwei planned to give to the Lin family and left with his wife and children.
In the car.
Ruanruan sat there and said: "Mom, can I come to my aunt's house often in the future?"
Ruan Bai looked back at his daughter and said, "Of course you can. Mom and dad will bring you over to play when they are free."
"My great-aunt's handicrafts are so beautiful. She said she would come and teach me if she has time some other time." Ruan Ruantian said sweetly.
Zhan Bai also said: "My great-grandfather's chess skills are better than my great-grandfather's."
Mu Shaoling drove the car and listened to what his son said. He smiled rarely and said, "Zhan Bai, your great grandfather cannot hear these words."
Zhan Bai was smart and understood what he meant, "I know, Dad."
Taotao opened her dark eyes and didn't understand what the adults meant, so she asked: "Daddy, why can't your great-grandfather hear you?"
"Because we have to respect our elders." Zhan Bai answered for his father, smart and witty.
Ruan Bai listened to the child's childish words, smiled and said nothing, but sent a text message to Zhou Qing, planning to send the cross stitch to him tomorrow.
What Ruan Manwei prepared was a cross-stitch that was over one meter long. The content of the embroidery was of thousands of horses galloping, which was in line with Lin Wenzheng's identity and taste.
Mu Shaoling's cell phone rang.
Ruan Bai looked at it and noticed that the caller was Dong Zijun. She thought it must be about work. Every call like this would take a long time. She found a Bluetooth headset, put it on his ears for help, and then pressed
Answer.
The corners of Mu Shaoling's mouth rose in pleasure, enjoying her thoughtfulness.
Ruan Bai turned around and raised his finger at the child, indicating to be quiet and not to disturb his conversation.
The children nodded one after another, shut their mouths, and behaved very well.
Ruan Bai felt from Mu Shaoling's few words that there seemed to be something wrong with T Group's international affairs. She frowned. Since Xia Wei resigned, he has lost a right-hand man. Many companies have to deal with international affairs.
He goes to deal with it.
After driving home, Mu Shaoling was still listening to the situation report.
The children got out of the car one after another, and Ruan Bai also opened the trunk, planning to take out the cross stitch.
Mu Shaoling came over, took over the cross stitch, and whispered, "I'll do it."
Ruan Bai nodded and asked him to carry it.
Dong Zijun on the other end of the phone was stunned and asked: "Boss?"
"It's okay, continue." Mu Shaoling responded, and bent down to pick up the cross-stitch. The one-meter-long cross-stitch had a certain weight, but he picked it up very easily.
Ruan Bai followed him, walked into the living room, pointed to the sofa and said: "Leave it here for now, I will send it over tomorrow."
There was a reply to the WeChat message she sent to Zhou Qing. The couple would be at home tomorrow, and she planned to send the cross stitch over and sit with them at the same time.
"Yeah." Mu Shaoling put the cross stitch on the sofa.
Dong Zijun on the other end of the phone heard Ruan Bai's voice and thought that his boss was a maniac who doted on his wife. He paused and then asked: "Boss, can I continue talking now?"
"Continue." Mu Shaoling stood beside the floor-to-ceiling window, listening to his report.
Ruan Bai went upstairs and urged the children to take a bath and rest.
An hour later, she put Taotao to sleep, walked out, and walked around the second floor. She found that Mu Shaoling hadn't gone upstairs yet, so she went downstairs.
Mu Shaoling just finished the call and saw her coming downstairs, walking in, hugging her, "Wife."
There was a little helplessness in his voice, and Ruan Bai looked up at him, "Is the company's affairs very troublesome?"
"Yeah, a bit." Mu Shaoling nodded. The construction period that had been set was inexplicably postponed. If it continued, the losses would become greater and greater.
"Can I help with something?" Ruan Bai wanted to help. He had always been by her side to help people deal with various problems, and she also wanted to do something for him.
Mu Shaoling lifted her long hair, tucked it behind her ears, and said, "I can handle it. I have a business trip tomorrow and can't accompany you to my mother-in-law's house."
Hearing that he was going on a business trip to deal with something, Ruan Bai thought to herself that this matter must be very difficult. She nodded and said: "I can go there by myself. Where are you going? How many days will you be there? I will go upstairs to help you pack your luggage now."
"Go to New York, USA. If things go well, it will take about a week." Mu Shaoling said, holding her hand and going upstairs.
Ruan Bai walked into the bedroom with him, opened the cloakroom and took out his suitcase.
Because Mu Shaoling often travels on business, there is always a box in the cloakroom with luggage already stored in it.
Ruan Bai checked it out, checked the weather conditions in New York, USA, for the next week, and added a few more pieces of luggage to him.
"You still need your passport. I'll put it in your briefcase for you to avoid the trouble of taking it out of the box," she said.
Mu Shaoling saw her busy with him, and felt warm in his heart, "Okay."
Ruan Bai took out his passport from the safe and put it in his briefcase. After finishing his work, she asked: "Is there anything else you didn't bring?"
Mu Shaoling said nothing and held her tightly in his arms, "No more, my wife, thank you for your hard work."
Hugging him back, Ruan Bai put his head on his strong chest.
Although they were very busy in the past, they never spent a day apart. This time he had to be away for at least seven days, and she felt a little reluctant to leave.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Mu Shaoling relaxed a little, lowered his head and kissed her, "What's wrong?"
"I can't bear to think of you leaving for so many days," Ruan Bai confessed, without hiding his emotions and love.
