Chapter 216 The First Visit to the Sheng Family
Chapter 216 The First Visit to the Sheng Family
After some polite exchanges, Wen Yan asked Aunt Zhang to prepare lunch.
Qingyue sat on the steps, chin resting on her knees, watching Nuonuo playing with shoveling mud.
Not far behind him, he could hear the voices of Wen Ze and Meng Yun.
Her mood sank little by little, becoming more and more depressed.
"Aunt Qingyue."
Ji Nuolin suddenly looked at her and asked in a baby voice, "Why are you unhappy?"
Qingyue smiled and said, "No."
"If you lie, your nose will grow longer."
Ji Nuolin pinched his nose and said with a pout.
Qingyue sighed. Was she really that obvious? Just as she was feeling depressed, her cell phone suddenly rang.
Shengyanzhou’s call came at the perfect time.
"Mr. Sheng."
She silently pressed the answer button.
Over there, Sheng Yanzhou said calmly: "Are you in a bad mood?"
"No, what do you want to talk to me about?"
Qingyue said as she fiddled with the grass at her feet.
Sheng Yanzhou said: "I'm just reminding you that it's the weekend in two days, don't forget to go see your grandparents."
"I didn't forget."
Qingyue bit her lip. "Excuse me, are there any requirements for clothing? Do you want it to be more formal?"
"casual."
Sheng Yanzhou said nonchalantly, "Come to Liyuan tonight."
As expected, the real purpose was revealed. Qingyue nodded: "Oh."
Sheng Yanzhou hung up the phone. Just as Qingyue was about to put away her phone, Ji Nuolin, who had been staring at her, suddenly spoke up.
"Aunt Qingyue, were you talking to your boyfriend on the phone just now?"
Qingyue was startled and subconsciously denied: "No."
"But you are blushing. My mom always talks to my dad like you did just now."
Ji Nuolin pointed at his nose and said, "People who lie will have their noses grow longer. Your nose has grown longer twice today."
Qingyue: "..."
She touched her face, but it wasn't red at all. The little girl was really confused.
At most... it's a little hot.
It must be because of the weather.
At this time, footsteps were heard behind her and a glass of ice lemonade was handed to Qingyue.
Qingyue looked up and met Wenze's gentle eyes.
"Drink some water to cool down."
Qingyue took the cup of water: "Thank you."
Ji Nuolin held the small shovel, looked at Wen Ze, then at Qingyue, his eyebrows furrowed, his face full of confusion.
Finally, she couldn't help but asked in a baby voice: "Uncle, how many girlfriends do you have?"
Wen Ze was stunned by the question: "What?"
Ji Nuolin pointed to the living room and said, "Isn't that aunt your girlfriend? Why do you like Aunt Qingyue again?"
"I--"
Wen Ze was stunned by the question and opened his mouth in embarrassment.
Qingyue was almost choked and quickly explained: "Nono, don't talk nonsense, I'm not his girlfriend."
"Oh."
Ji Nuolin nodded, "Then the man on the phone just now is your boyfriend?"
Wen Ze couldn't help but glance at Qingyue.
The phone call just now? Could it be from Sheng Yanzhou?
Seeing Qingyue's embarrassed face, Wen Ze gently patted Ji Nuolin's head and scolded: "Children should just play in the mud, why ask about boyfriends and girlfriends."
Ji Nuolin threw down the shovel and said angrily: "If you hit me, I will go find my mother!"
Qingyue was afraid that he would talk nonsense in the house, so she grabbed him and said, "Nuo Nuo, be good, he didn't hit you on purpose. I'll take you out to play next time, don't go and complain."
Ji Nuolin rolled his eyes and said, "You also need to buy me an excavator."
Qingyue had no choice but to agree: "Okay."
Ji Nuolin jumped up happily and picked up the small shovel: "Let's go dig earthworms!"
Qingyue and Wenze looked at each other and smiled helplessly.
"Aze, you are here."
A gentle and pleasant voice was heard, and Meng Yun walked over with a smile.
She looked at Qingyue, smiled and nodded.
Qingyue also smiled slightly: "I'll go see if Yanyan needs any help."
After saying that, he took the lemonade and left.
Meng Yun looked at Wen Ze with a complicated expression, hesitated for a moment and said, "There will be a musical at the Grand Theater in a few days. Are you free to go with me?"
Wen Ze looked gentle and nodded: "Okay."
"Really, you agree?"
Meng Yun's eyes lit up, and she held Wen Ze's hand, her eyes full of surprise and happiness.
At this time, a dark hand reached out, holding a lively earthworm between its fingertips: "Look, I dug up an earthworm!"
Meng Yun turned pale with fear and hid behind Wen Ze.
Wen Ze scolded: "Nono, take it away, you scared her!"
Meng Yun quickly comforted her: "It's okay, don't blame the child."
Ji Nuolin snorted: "My uncle really values women over friends. He doesn't like me now that he has a girlfriend. He's not as good as Aunt Qingyue. She has a boyfriend and is willing to take me to buy an excavator. I won't play with you anymore!"
Ji Nuolin wrinkled his nose and ran into the house with his chubby legs.
Wen Ze was so upset. This little bastard was always talking about things that were not relevant.
Lunch is ready, let’s eat together.
Wen Ze and Meng Yun sat together naturally. Wen Yan pulled Qingyue to sit beside her. The group was eating happily but with a hint of awkwardness.
As soon as she finished her meal, Qingyue stood up and said goodbye.
"Aunt Qingyue, remember what you promised me!"
Ji Nuolin walked her all the way to the door with a servile look on his face.
Qingyue couldn't help laughing and touched his little face: "Don't worry, I won't forget it."
When I got outside, Wen Ze and Meng Yun just came out.
"Where are you going? I'll take you there."
Wen Ze is always gentle and polite.
Qingsong was not polite at all: "Okay, thank you, Brother Wen Ze."
Qingyue shook her head: "We are not going the same way, I can just take the subway, bye."
Wen Ze didn't say anything. He watched Qingyue leave with complicated eyes, then turned around and returned to the car.
**
Soon, it's the weekend.
Qingyue chose the most expensive dress from her closet and put it on.
It is said to be the most expensive, but in fact it is only two hundred yuan. Last year, she passed by a clothing store and fell in love with this skirt. She waited until the seasonal sale and bargained with the store owner for a long time before buying it.
The light blue cotton long skirt just reaches above the knee, looking gentle and comfortable.
The medium-length hair is combed into a loose side braid and placed in front of the chest.
As soon as I changed it, my cell phone rang.
Zhao Duo said on the phone: "Mr. Sheng is a little busy today, the driver will take you back to the Sheng family first."
"Myself?"
Qingyue couldn't help but become nervous.
"Don't be afraid, the old lady likes you very much. If you have any questions, just contact Mr. Sheng."
Zhao Duo seemed very busy and hung up the phone after he finished speaking.
Qingyue sighed and suddenly remembered something. She opened the drawer and picked up a folded piece of cotton cloth. Inside was the jade bracelet given by Old Lady Sheng.
She put on the bracelet carefully and set off.
She didn't tell Sheng Yanzhou her home address, but instead said it was two blocks away.
When she walked over, she saw not the familiar Rolls-Royce, but another car of a brand she couldn't recognize.
As soon as she walked over, the driver got out of the car and opened the door.
"Miss Qingyue, please."
Qingyue couldn't stand such etiquette, so she nodded quickly and got into the car.
The car drove along, and soon, a luxurious manor appeared in front of us.
Looking at the strict guards at the gate, it was just like the aristocratic castle in the movies. Qingyue couldn't help swallowing and became more nervous.
The housekeeper seemed to be waiting for her, and said with a smile: "Miss Qingyue, the master and the old lady are in the back garden."
