Chapter 271: Filled with the smell of copper and rice
Cheng family.
After all the flowers at home were cleared away, Cheng Wei's father sat on the sofa and said in a deep voice: "What the hell is going on."
Cheng Wei's mother patted his shoulder and frowned: "Don't be so serious. There is something you can't talk about."
Cheng Wei stood there, and after a while he said: "Mom, Dad, I lied to you."
"cheat?
Xiaowei, please explain things clearly."
"Xingwan is not my girlfriend, but I like her very much, so I asked her to do me a favor and come back to see you."
But it is undeniable that there is his selfishness in it.
He originally thought that as long as Ruan Xingwan agreed to come with him to meet his parents, he would always be different in her heart.
You can always use this excuse afterwards to let her continue to pretend to be his girlfriend.
Unexpectedly, all this was disrupted by Zhou Cishen.
Cheng Wei's father said: "Look what you are doing!"
After a while, Cheng Wei's mother said, "The one who brought flowers to the house is her boyfriend?"
Cheng Wei shook his head: "It's her ex-husband. They have divorced. He has been pestering her. Xingwan has never promised him."
Cheng Wei's father looked a little ugly: "Why didn't you tell your family about her divorce in advance?"
"I don't think it's necessary."
"What does it mean to be unnecessary?
You have brought people to your home. Shouldn't you tell me and your mother about the most basic things? Now that it's fine, your ex-husband comes to your door. Do you know what this is called?
This is called giving away your face to others!"
Cheng Wei's mother was arguing in the middle: "Okay, okay, don't say anything. I see that Xingwan is a good child and I like her quite a lot. Since her ex-husband has gone back to pursue her again, it means that this girl is indeed good."
, if she can marry the Cheng family, it will be considered a blessing for our Cheng family, but we cannot force things like love."
Cheng Wei's mother said, then looked at Cheng Wei: "Xiao Wei, you'd better have an idea of who that girl likes.
If she likes her ex-husband, don't try to destroy them. If she likes you, then of course it's the best."
Cheng Wei pursed his lips slightly and said nothing.
Cheng Wei's mother said: "I'm going to clean up the kitchen. You, father and son, please stop arguing. We're celebrating the New Year. What's the point?"
After she left, Cheng Wei's father stood up and said, "Come to the study with me."
In the study, Cheng Wei's father said, "Did you hear clearly what your mother just said to you?"
Cheng Wei nodded.
Cheng Wei's father continued: "I believe you should know better than anyone who that girl likes. Otherwise, she would go home to you as your girlfriend today instead of pretending."
Cheng Wei frowned, knowing what he meant: "Dad, you don't know the situation..."
"I don't know and I don't want to know."
Cheng Wei's father said, "Since she doesn't even have you in her heart, you shouldn't waste so much time on her."
"But I like her very much."
"It doesn't matter if I like you. Do you think you are still an emotional young man of seventeen or eighteen? There are far more important things about you than liking me."
Hearing this, Cheng Wei stopped talking.
Cheng Wei's father said again: "Okay, I'll finish it here, you can think about it yourself."
As soon as Cheng Wei returned to the room, he heard his phone vibrate.
The news was sent late by Ruan Xing, saying that she had arrived home.
Cheng Wei subconsciously wanted to call back, but when he looked at her number, he hesitated.
Even his parents have seen clearly that Ruan Xingwan likes Zhou Cishen.
To this day, he is the only one who is deceiving himself and hoping to hear a different answer from her one day.
…
Morning.
Ruan Xingwan had just woken up when he heard the cell phone on the bedside vibrating.
She took it over and looked at it. It was full of blessing messages and New Year red envelopes.
Ruan Xingwan rubbed his painful temples and replied one by one.
When she finished replying one by one and dragged her heavy steps out of the bedroom, Pei Shanshan was placing bowls and chopsticks. On the table was steaming porridge and a dazzling array of ingredients.
Seeing her getting up, Pei Shanshan said: "Xingxing, you're awake, wash up quickly and come to eat."
Ruan Xingwan lay on the sofa, struggling to keep his eyes open: "Is there any takeout for delivery today?"
Pei Shanshan said: "This is not a takeaway, Xiaochen brought it here."
Ruan Chen came out of the kitchen: "I just met you in the elevator and brought you here by the way."
Ruan Xingwan: "..."
Are they talking about tongue twisters?
Ruan Xingwan stared blankly at the dishes on the table, gradually understood, turned and entered the bathroom.
After washing up, Ruan Xingwan felt much more awake. After drinking a large glass of honey water, the dull pain in his temples also disappeared.
Sitting at the table, Pei Shanshan rubbed her hands: "This New Year's morning is really full of the smell of copper and rice.
Thank you, Mr. Zhou, for me, I’m about to start.”
Ruan Xingwan scratched his eyebrows, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Ruan Chen served her a bowl of porridge: "Let's eat."
After finishing the meal, Pei Shanshan said: "Xingxing, Xiaochen, do you have any plans for the afternoon?
If not, can we go see a movie in the afternoon?"
Ruan Xingwan nodded: "You can arrange it, I will go to sleep again."
Ruan Chen was silent before saying, "I have something to do."
Pei Shanshan looked at him suspiciously: "New Year's Eve, what's the matter with you? Are you really in love?"
Hearing this, Ruan Xingwan also stopped and looked back at him.
Ruan Chen: "..."
He said: "Nothing, I made an appointment with my classmates."
"Male classmate or female classmate?"
"...all of them."
Pei Shanshan's eyes instantly lit up: "Is your male classmate handsome?"
Ruan Xingwan knew what she wanted to say without having to think about it. He quickly covered her mouth and said to Ruan Chen: "Okay, Xiaochen, you are busy with your work. Just come back for dinner in the afternoon."
"good."
After Ruan Xingwan and Ruan Chen left one after another, Pei Shanshan sat at the dining table and looked at the food in front of him, which was almost the tip of the iceberg. Then he took out his mobile phone and found a number to dial.
Soon, the call was answered.
Pei Shanshan coughed and said seriously: "Assistant Lin, I am Pei Shanshan."
"Hello, Miss Pei, what's the matter?"
"If that's the case, I would like to ask, does Mr. Zhou have any work arrangements for today?"
On the other end of the phone, Lin Nan was a little confused. Isn't today the Chinese New Year? It would be a bit outrageous if Mr. Zhou worked again.
He said slowly: "No."
Pei Shanshan smiled clearly: "Okay, okay, Xingxing and I are going to see a movie this afternoon. I'll book an extra ticket and send the information to you later. Please forward it to Mr. Zhou."
