Chapter 81: Chapter 81 Guest Visit
When I left school, I was still a little flustered. I never liked to compare with others. I couldn’t tell what it was for, but the situation I heard from my old man was what I had expected. However, when these two feelings collided, it was very difficult to tell what kind of complex feeling I had now.
“Chu Nan, did your dad misunderstand our relationship?” Dong Xiaoye touched her belly while driving, “how can you do something like this? I was so nervous that I didn’t dare to eat too much. I am so hungry right now.”
“Six chicken drumsticks and two plates of beef, and you are still hungry?” I stared at her miraculous belly, and said, “Your appetite reminds me of an animal…”
“Tiger?” Dong Xiao said in a sulky tone, “If I am a tiger I will definitely bite you! So where are we going next, I will need to go back to the station soon.”
“Hengxiang Real Estate Company, if it is not on the same way, I can take a taxi by myself. I am sorry that I have to trouble you all the time…” I was telling the truth.
Originally, I was afraid that Sang Yingjie’s people would beat me up, so I called Dong Xiaoye out, but I ended up using her as a driver. I felt really sorry about it.
“What, you are sorry? I thought your skin was very thick!” Dong Xiaoye obviously referred to the fact that I brought her to meet my old man. The pretty red glow flashed on her face, and she sneered: “You owe me a favor today. You need to treat me to a big seafood feast, then we will be even. Also, don’t forget our agreement when you are on holiday.”
“Holiday Agreement? A date?”
“A fight!” Dong Xiaoye said the words one by one: “A fight agreement!”
Damn, I couldn’t fool her this time. Elder sister tiger still wouldn’t give it up. She still wanted to beat me up…
. . .
When I came out of Hengxiang Company, it was already dark. I declined Guo Xiang’s invitation to dinner and kind offer to drive me back. After I came out, I felt that the outside air was so fresh and the world was so beautiful.
I didn’t expect that Guo Xiang, who was usually shy and quiet, would change his personality so much when it comes to work. Clever, eloquent, enthusiastic, and meticulous, he even had some detailed analysis of some minutiae places. Originally, I was just asking for some simple questions, but I was bombarded by his passionate speech all afternoon. No wonder my old man said that I shouldn’t judge him by his look.
Because I was discussing the business with Guo Xiang, my phone was muted. When I got into the taxi and took it out. I got a series of missed calls. There were calls from Mo Fei and Liusu, but most of the calls were from Chu Yuan.
Thinking about the date, I first called Liusu. I originally wanted to apologize to her, but I didn’t expect that once the phone call got through, she apologized to me first.
“Nannan, I am really sorry! I can’t go to your house tonight, sorry!”
“Why?” I was confused. You have to know that this girl had never had a record of missing any appointments.
“Just a little problem,” Liusu first answered my question, and then said to herself with a bitter smile: “Maybe it is really a problem this time…”
I was taken aback, the optimist Liusu was never this upset before, “What’s wrong? Did Zhang Mingjie that fly harass you again? Wait there, I am on my way!” I could clearly feel the blood surging up to my head, and there was a fit of anger that I was barely able to contain within my body.
“No, It’s not him.” Liusu couldn’t help but chuckled, “my mother is here.”
“Auntie?” Because of work reasons, Liusu’s parents did not live in Bei Tian City. They usually reunited only on annual leave. Normally, it was a happy thing that her mother came to see her, but why would she say it was a problem.
I let out a sigh of relief and frowned. “Auntie rarely comes to Bei Tian to see you, why did you say that?”
“She didn’t just come to see me,” Liusu said lifelessly: “she insisted on introducing a cousin to me.”
This made me even more confused, “wait what? You don’t even know your cousin? And she has to introduce you to her?”
“Nannan, we have known each other for so long, have you heard that I have a cousin before?” There seemed to be some dissatisfaction in Liusu’s tone, “I don’t even know where this cousin came from, sigh, I can’t explain it clearly over the phone, in short, I may be in trouble. I will tell you in detail tomorrow. Anyway, Be careful on the road, and go home early, bye~”
“Bye.”
After all, it was Liusu’s family affair. Since she didn’t want to say more, I didn’t want to continue asking. After hanging up, I called Mo Fei. She was worried that I was in trouble again because I had told her that I would go back to the company around two o’clock, but she still hasn’t seen me. I told her that everything was going well, and then comforted her. And finally I called my little sister.
“Where are you?!”
Coldness and indifference are actually somewhat different. I know Chu Yuan too well. Indifference was normal, but coldness was a sign of extreme anger, and I was sure that her voice contained coldness now…
“Outside, what’s wrong?” I knew clearly why she was angry. She had called me at least fifteen times, but I didn’t answer any one of them. It would only be strange if she wasn’t angry.
“Work?” Surprisingly, Chu Yuan didn’t get angry, and her tone eased a lot, which surprised me a lot. It was so sad that it was very rare for her to be reasonable, but instead of feeling happy, I felt something strange about it.
“Yes, I was discussing business with another company, so the phone was muted.”
“No wonder I sent you a message on QQ and you didn’t reply…” Chu Yuan mumbled, and then lowered her voice like a thief and whispered, “Elder brother, are you busy?”
“I’m on my way home, what’s wrong?”
“Hmm.. we have guests at home…”
“Guests?” I was surprised. “Who?” I didn’t socialize very much. Except for my colleagues in the company, I had very few friends, so who would visit me?
“Yes…” Chu Yuan stopped talking, and then as if she was worried about something, she quickly said, “it is hard to explain, anyway, you will know once you come back, bye…” then she hung up straight away.
It was just guests, how hard would it be to explain it? I frowned, and then my heart tightened suddenly.
Could it be that Sang Yingjie and others found my background and had already discovered my flat?! Thug Sang was probably afraid of alarming me, so he threatened Chu Yuan. Was that the reason why Chu Yuan didn’t dare to say it?
With that in mind, I broke out into a cold sweat, and the more I thought about it, the more I was afraid. For just three hundred thousand, was it really necessary to do this kind of thing? Besides, how could they find out the background of me, a nobody, in less than a day? This efficiency was ridiculous!
“Sir, Dazhongma Community, please quick!”
I rushed upstairs in one breath. I was sweating anxiously, and wanting to open the door as soon as possible, but I couldn’t find the key in my pocket.
Just when I was just about to kick the door, the door was opened. Appearing in front of me was not a fierce face. On the contrary, the little face was pure and pretty.
Seeing my hostile stance, the pretty girl was obviously surprised, she but immediately showed a harmless smile, and said sweetly, “Elder Brother Nan, you are back~”
The shoulder-length tan hair was fluffy and wavy, and the fringe was neat-cut, covering her eyebrows, the big bright eyes were rippling with layers of water waves, seemingly carrying untold melancholy and sorrow, and the beauty spot under the right eye corner made her look even cuter. Although she was almost as pretty as a doll, the first feeling I had was a spine-tingling feeling.
“Dongfang Lianren?!”
If it was not her, then who else could it be?
Obviously, Dongfang Lianren has been waiting at the door, and after hearing the noise, she knew that I was back, so she was not surprised. She pushed the anti-theft gate and grabbed my arm with enthusiasm. “Come in, elder brother Nan. Just call me Dongfang. We are so familiar with each other now. There is no need to call me like a stranger.”
This seems to be my home, right? So why are you acting like you are the host, besides… Am I that familiar with you?
I was speechless. Does this girl have severe selective amnesia? She almost killed me yesterday! I took a big breath first, and then thought, was this some kind of her trick again?
