At night, Su Yuxi was half asleep when she suddenly heard Pei Mubai's cell phone ringing.
Pei Mubai got out of bed lightly and walked outside to pick him up.
The call was from Zhang Yun, saying that there was something wrong with one of the company's projects, and it seemed that a murder occurred on the construction site. The Chinese New Year was coming soon, and it would not be good if something like this happened, so Pei Mubai decided to go on a business trip.
Pei Mubai returned to the bedroom again. Su Yuxi also woke up and asked in a daze: "What's wrong? Is there something important?"
Normally no one would call him this late unless it was a very urgent matter.
Pei Mubai didn't want Su Yuxi to worry, so he made some perfunctory remarks and just said that he might have to go on a business trip tomorrow.
Judging from Pei Mubai's expression, it was probably not a good thing, so Su Yuxi didn't ask any more questions, found a comfortable position in his arms and continued to sleep.
When Su Yuxi got up the next day, Pei Mubai had already left, and his scent was still lingering on her pillow. She didn't know what happened, because Pei Mubai went on a business trip so early in the morning.
Pei Mubai was not here, so Su Yuxi drove to work by herself.
Fang Xiaoxiao hasn't gone out since she returned to China. Her father has recently forced her to go on blind dates. They have been on four or five blind dates, but she didn't like any of them. Today, she was also forced to go on blind dates.
In the past, she would arrive on time, but those men were all weird, and they would make any request to get pregnant first and then get the certificate. She was really fed up.
Today, she was nearly half an hour late for the blind date on purpose. Anyway, the blind date probably wouldn't work. She didn't have high demands on herself, so she just needed to find someone to live with.
Fang Xiaoxiao didn't put on any makeup today, she was dressed normally, and she went out without combing her hair. She typically didn't take the other person seriously.
Fang Xiaoxiao arrived at the private room and found that Zhang Yu was there. She slapped her forehead hard. Was she dreaming? Or had she gone to the wrong room? Did she meet her ex-husband on a blind date?
Fang Xiaoxiao exited and checked the private room number her father sent her again, but yes, it is here. What's going on?
Zhang Yu was also frightened when he saw Fang Xiaoxiao. Why was Fang Xiaoxiao here? He was also forced by his family to go on a blind date.
"Xiaoxiao, are you here for a blind date?" Zhang Yu asked her with a smile. Her dress was too casual.
"Yes, yes." Fang Xiaoxiao scratched her head in embarrassment. The person her father introduced to her could not be Zhang Yu.
"What a coincidence, I'm also here for a blind date." Zhang Yu couldn't laugh or cry. After going around and around, he unexpectedly met the same person from before.
"I, my father introduced me here." Fang Xiaoxiao seemed to tell him, but in fact she was also forced to do so.
"Well, I was also introduced by my aunt. You don't have to feel embarrassed. We can just chat normally and it will be easy to explain when we get back." Zhang Yu invited her to sit down and poured her a cup of tea.
Fang Xiaoxiao pinched her trouser leg nervously. She should dress up a little before going out today. She looked too ugly like this.
"How have you been lately?" Fang Xiaoxiao took the initiative to find a topic.
"Well, that's good. Didn't you go abroad?"
"It's almost the New Year. I haven't been back to visit my grandparents for a long time. I want to spend the New Year with them this year."
"Yeah, that's fine. The old man is getting older and wants his children to be with him."
Today's blind date unexpectedly met Zhang Yu. Fang Xiaoxiao was full of words and wanted to share them with Su Yuxi, so she bought lunch to go find Su Yuxi.
"Aren't you on a blind date recently? How come you have time to come to my place to play?" Su Yuxi took a bite of the pork ribs rice that Fang Xiaoxiao bought for her. Xiaoxiao bought Xiang.
Fang Xiaoxiao is a foodie. She is the first to know where there is delicious food.
"Hey, don't mention it. I've met a bunch of weird people recently. Some want me to be a full-time housewife, and some want me to get pregnant before I'm married. I'm just a machine for giving birth and taking care of children. But I'm lucky today. Guess what happened to me?
Who is here?" Fang Xiaoxiao pretended to be mysterious.
"Who is it? It can't be Gong Cheng, right?" Su Yuxi asked tentatively. After not seeing each other for so long, Xiaoxiao must have forgotten about Gong Cheng, right?
"No, that scumbag has never been sincere to me. I have forgotten about him a long time ago. I met Zhang Yu on a blind date today. What kind of weird fate do you think this is? I met my ex-husband on a blind date!" Fang Xiaoxiao was very excited.
typical.
"Oh, yes, are you going to remarry?" Su Yuxi asked with a smile.
"I didn't say that."
"Xiaoxiao, maybe the fate between you two is not over yet?"
"Well, haha, who knows, just let nature take its course." Fang Xiaoxiao smiled awkwardly. It was a wonderful feeling to suddenly meet on a blind date after they were divorced.
"Oh, by the way, when do you have time? I want to go to your house to visit some of your children. I haven't seen them for a long time."
"Whenever you have time, come to my house for dinner tonight."
"Oh, that's great. Zhang Yu and I have made an appointment to go to your house in the evening. Pei Mubai should be okay with that, right?"
"What can he say? Besides, he's on a business trip today."
"Haha, that's good."
"It's okay to eat, but we must first agree not to waste money on buying things for the children, and ask Zhang Yu not to buy them either."
In the afternoon, Su Yuxi called Pei Mubai to ask if he would go home for dinner, but Pei Mubai didn't answer. Su Yuxi sent him a video, but he didn't reply either. He didn't know what happened to delay him.
At 5:30 in the evening, both Fang Xiaoxiao and Zhang Yu came over, but Pei Mubai didn't come back either. He probably wouldn't come back tonight.
"Xixi, I seem to rarely come to your house."
Although Su Yuxi said not to buy anything, Zhang Yu still bought a lot of gifts for the children, and the children were very happy.
"Haha, it seems so." Pei Mubai has always regarded Zhang Yu as his love rival, and he has no chance to come to their house.
"You guys sit down first, the food will be ready soon." Su Yuxi likes to cook by herself when there are guests.
"Xixi, we can't eat too much, so we can just cook a few less dishes." Fang Xiaoxiao said while teasing the child.
Su Yuxi nodded. It was the first time that Zhang Yu came to the house for dinner. It didn't matter that he cooked too little. Su Yuxi still cooked a full table of dishes.
Zhang Yu was sitting in the living room, but his eyes fell on Su Yuxi for a moment. She looked like a good wife and mother. Why did Su Yuxi never forget her even after she got married?
After the meal was ready, Su Yuxi called Pei Mubai again, but Pei Mubai still didn't answer. Su Yuxi had no choice but to send him a WeChat message, saying that Fang Xiaoxiao and Zhang Yu were coming to the house for dinner.
Pei Mubai did not reply.
Pei Mubai usually wouldn't go so long without replying to her message, unless something happened, Su Yuxi couldn't help but worry.
After eating, Fang Xiaoxiao and Zhang Yu didn't stay much longer. Su Yuxi bathed the child and finished washing herself early, but she still didn't wait for Pei Mubai to reply to her message. Could something really happen to him?
