The door opened, and Xue Ling, dressed in a formal suit, stepped in.
Shan Yue and Chen Shuiyu were both stunned.
I saw that Xue Ling still maintained her usual slender figure, wore elegant light makeup, and had her hair half-up. She was elegant and intellectual, and her confident eyebrows showed nobility and beauty.
Xue Ling had some subtle wrinkles at the corners of her eyebrows, but she didn't cover them up with makeup, instead accepting them calmly.
Time has left very few traces on her body, and she is treated with special care and favor as a beauty.
"Brother Shanyue, Sister Chen!"
Xue Ling took the lead in greeting them and came over to shake their hands.
Shanyue and Chen Shuiyu both stood up and shook hands with her excitedly.
"Ling Ling, I haven't seen you for many years! In the blink of an eye, it's been six or seven years again, right?
Maybe more!”
"Why haven't you changed at all? You are exactly the same as when you were in your thirties! You are still so young and beautiful!"
Xue Ling laughed and shook his head: "I'm old, I'm old. It's really hard not to accept old age."
She looked at Shan You behind them, looked down, and said hello warmly.
Shan You was startled and hid behind his parents.
Cheng Tianyuan quietly took his wife's hand and said warmly: "Sit down first and chat with Youyou later."
Xue Ling saw many people, and suddenly saw that Shan You looked very strange. He sat down next to Cheng Tianyuan calmly, smiled and greeted everyone to sit down and eat.
"That's right! I almost forgot!"
Xue Ling walked out and greeted the people at the door.
She came back and explained: "I just got off the bus on the way and bought a gift for Youyou and put it in the car.
I was anxious to come in to meet you, but I forgot about it for a moment.
As I get older, my memory is really bad!"
Chen Shuiyu nodded in agreement: "I often do this too. I forget a lot of things as soon as I turn around! Why do you still have to buy gifts?
Youyou is already so old, why do you need to buy gifts?"
Xue Ling smiled and explained: "Long time no see, I don't know what to buy for Youyou.
In a boutique, I saw Yoyo's favorite rag doll and bought one.
It’s not worth much, I hope Yoyo likes it.”
Shan Yue and Chen Shuiyu were very moved, "It's been so many years, do you still remember?
Lingling is really thoughtful."
Soon, the bodyguard brought the doll up.
Xue Ling hugged her and came to Shan You's side, smiling and handing the doll forward.
"Yuyou, do you still like cute dolls with big eyes?
Look! Does this one look like the one you used to sleep with?
Like it?"
Shan You timidly avoided her, but his big, hollow eyes fell on the rag doll. He looked at it blankly, then swallowed his saliva.
Xue Ling gently pushed the doll in front of her.
Shan You looked at it, stretched out his hand to touch the doll, and finally said in a low voice: "...I like it."
Everyone laughed happily.
Xue Ling smiled and said: "Give it to you, you hold it."
Shan You looked at it anxiously, then wrapped his bony arms around the doll, pulled it toward him, and carefully carried it into his arms.
She didn't dare to speak and buried her head again.
Xue Ling didn't care at all and sat back in his seat, "You're welcome.
Sister Chen, don’t force your child."
At this time, the dishes were brought out one by one, piping hot, delicious and delicious.
Cheng Tianyuan smiled and asked, "Would you like something to drink?"
"No more."
Shanyue shook his head and smiled bitterly: "My health has not been very good these past few years, so I don't dare to drink anymore.
Ayu is afraid that her blood pressure will be too high, so she never drinks."
Xue Ling said: "It's okay, let's just eat vegetables."
Cheng Huanran walked out and brought over several bottles of coconut juice.
Chen Shuiyu asked for a bottle, and Xue Ling also asked for one.
Cheng Huanran handed over a bottle and placed it in front of Shan You. She looked at it timidly, neither rejecting nor accepting.
At this time, the ramen was served.
The waiter explained specifically: "This is made by the best chef in our store. It took more than an hour to knead the noodles and make the dough.
The soup is rich old hen soup, very fresh and delicious.
Please enjoy!"
Chen Shuiyu smiled and said, "Bring it to me first."
Shanyue looked at the steaming, fragrant big bowl of noodles and couldn't help but praise: "It makes people's appetite look great, it's not bad!"
Xue Ling said warmly: "Put it in a small bowl first and let Youyou eat it."
Chen Shuiyu picked up the long noodles, and Shan You looked at it blankly, seeming to think of something, and swallowed his saliva.
She took the initiative to pick up the chopsticks in front of her and leaned over to help her mother.
Chen Shuiyu was very excited and asked quickly: "Do you want to eat it?"
You used to like Teito’s ramen the most... Come! Eat quickly! Eat quickly!"
Shan You buried his head, slowly picked up a small pair of chopsticks and ate.
"Is it delicious?"
Shan Yue asked with a smile.
Shan You's head nodded slightly.
Everyone laughed happily.
This meal is a feast for the guests and the host enjoys it to the fullest.
Shanyou ate half a bowl of noodles and stopped eating.
With tears in Chen Shuiyu's eyes, she said happily: "This is the meal I have eaten the most recently..." The bodyguard drove over, and Cheng Huanran got in the car and took them to the hotel.
Xue Ling and Cheng Tianyuan got into another car and returned to "Sanxinyuan".
The roads in the city center of the imperial capital were full of traffic, and drivers drove slowly.
The air conditioner in the car is slightly cold, but not enough to cool each other's moods.
"Youyou used to be cute and well-behaved, and sang so beautifully..." Xue Ling sighed: "Now that I see her like this, I can't help but feel sad."
Cheng Tianyuan could not hide his heartache and whispered: "This is a beautiful and smart little girl... I hope she will get better soon."
Xue Ling nodded: "It's okay, this disease can be cured.
It looks a little serious now, but she is still young and has a pair of parents who love her so much.
With the support of her relatives, she will get better soon."
The two of them listened to each other's seemingly comforting words, looked at each other, and couldn't help but sigh again.
After arriving at Xinyuan, I found that the front hall and front yard were deserted.
The bodyguard took out the instrument to look at it and explained: "The old ladies and gentlemen are still in the back garden, while Miss Xiao Xin and Master Xiao Chong are in their respective rooms.
The two cooks in the kitchen just left."
Xue Ling chuckled: "Just call me by name.
This is not the old feudal society, where do the young ladies and young masters come from!"
The young bodyguard smiled awkwardly and explained that this is what they learned during training.
"Remember to change your words."
Xue Ling smiled: "Our family doesn't have such rules and regulations."
The bodyguard nodded.
The two went back to their room to take a shower and change clothes, then walked to the living room to drink water, but found that several elderly people still hadn't come to the front yard.
Cheng Tianyuan poured a large pot of water and took a few cups.
"Let's go to the backyard and have a look!"
The lights in the back garden were bright, and three old men were squatting among the flowers, each holding cattail fans in their hands, fanning themselves while chatting, and letting out low laughter from time to time.
Xue Ling laughed dumbly and asked: "What are you doing?
Chatting among the flowers in the middle of the night?"
"Hey! You are back!"
"Quick! Come and see!"
"The epiphyllum has bloomed! It's so beautiful! It's fragrant and pretty, and it couldn't be more beautiful!"
"This is the first time in my life that I have seen Epiphyllum!"
Liu Ying laughed and said: "Xiao Xin told me... by the way, it's called a 'short-lived flower', which means that the flower only blooms for four or five hours and withers in the early morning.
This flower has just bloomed and we are still reluctant to leave."
