There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, then a dry reply: "No, I'm fine!"

An Moxue and Li Aidang rolled their eyes at the same time. Li Aidang retorted, "You old bastard, I've already received the letter, and you're making me very unhappy."

An Moxue thought more deeply and said, "Could it be that you missed out on a promotion opportunity recently because your affair was exposed?"

There was still silence on the other end, so An Moxue continued, "I suggest you investigate whether your meeting was accidental or orchestrated."

"How is this possible?" Li Aidang screamed.

An Moxue said irritably, "Why is it impossible? You're still too inexperienced. Say something!" She shouted into the phone.

"I understand, thank you and Ai Dang." The voice had lost its crispness and become somewhat hoarse.

Both of them understood. Li Aidang shouted, "You're our older brother, don't let us younger siblings look down on you. Alright, your nephew is hungry, I'm going to eat with Mo Xue, you go take care of your business!"

There was a chuckle on the other end of the phone, "Okay, don't be so greedy, Mo Xue. I sent you some walnuts. Don't forget to eat them when they arrive. Everyone here says that eating them will make children smarter. Don't be a little foodie like you."

"Mo Xue, I'm hanging up." Before An Mo Xue could say anything, she grabbed the phone and hung up.

An Moxue looked at her with some helplessness. She had originally wanted to say a few words of comfort, but then thought better of it; pregnant women are not to be trifled with.

Li Aidang realized he had acted rashly and looked at An Moxue somewhat guiltily, saying cautiously, "Um, Moxue, I didn't mean to, I just got emotional and acted impulsively. How about we call it back?"

"Forget it, I've said the main points anyway. What can a grown man do?"

Then she said to the post office clerk, "Could you please calculate how much this costs?"

After the postman finished calculating the bill, An Moxue paid, and the two left the post office. Li Aidang said, "Moxue, do you think she really planned to meet Wentao?"

"It's hard to say, but it's inevitable that Wentao's comrades took advantage of this and benefited from it. Didn't we both sense something was off about him over the phone? Maybe he himself had his suspicions, but our phone call only deepened them."

"Please don't let it be like that, then Wentao will be quite pitiful."

"There's nothing we can do about it, it's not our decision. You should worry about what good food we should eat!"

"Hurry up, I'm starving." With that, he pulled An Moxue into the car.

When it comes to food, she immediately forgets everything else, which she admires.

An Moxue parked the car and entered the state-run restaurant with Ai Dang when a sharp voice came from behind, "Oh! Look who this is? Isn't this our noble Comrade An Moxue? What? Couldn't you stay out of town and came back to freeload?"

An Moxue looked at Li Aidang. Who is this person?

Seeing her blank expression, Li Aidang asked, "Mo Xue, you don't recognize her?"

"Who is it? Should I know them?"

She thought An Moxue was saying this on purpose to provoke the person opposite her, so she went along with her words: "That's right, those nobody's not worth your attention. We're here to do big things." As she spoke, she pulled An Moxue toward the counter.

An Moxue didn't linger and went to the counter with Li Aidang.

Li Aidang muttered under his breath, "Running into her while eating out is such bad luck."

"We have steamed chicken, would you like one?"

"OK."

"Is it safe to eat fish?"

Li Aidang shook his head and said, "One serving of mixed stir-fried vegetables, please."

"Sure. Is there anything else you'd like to eat?"

"I want to eat canned hawthorn." She looked at An Moxue with a longing expression.

An Moxue looked at her with a helpless yet doting expression: "I'll buy you two later. And two more servings of dumplings. Mushroom and cabbage, and chive and egg."

"Okay, that's enough. I don't want anything else."

"Okay, that's all the waiters."

After An Moxue paid the bill and took the order slip, she and Li Aidang had just sat down when the noisy noise started again.

"No way! If you can't afford it, don't come. You don't even care about fish? An Moxue, if you don't have any fish tickets, just say so, I'll lend you some!"

“Aidang, which mental hospital’s gate wasn’t closed properly? A mad dog has been let out and is barking wildly here. What if it bites someone? Especially since you’re pregnant. We’d better eat quickly and leave as soon as we’re done.”

"That's right. He used to be unaware of his ugliness, but now he doesn't even consider himself human anymore. I'm speechless. How unlucky is my brother Wentao to be targeted by this ugly dog ​​for so many years? Just thinking about it makes me want to vomit."

"There's nothing I can do, I just lack self-awareness!"

The two girls launched into a veiled attack, which angered the girl so much that she tried to stand up and walk over, but her classmate grabbed her arm.

She didn't know what the girl who pulled her said, but she reluctantly sat down and didn't say anything more hurtful.

Just then, the sound of someone ordering food came from inside. An Moxue went back and forth twice, bringing over all the food.

When Li Aidang sees food, he can put everything else down and focus solely on eating.

After the two finished eating, Li Aidang let out a burp, having eaten most of the food.

An Moxue teased her, "Wow! No wonder you're eating for two, your appetite has obviously increased a lot! Can your husband Jiang Wenhua afford to support you?"

Li Aidang was at a loss, unsure whether to tell the truth or a half-truth.

"No way!"

"Well, Mo Xue, you know I have a big appetite, and he spoils me a lot, so... you know."

An Moxue was exasperated with her and said, "Alright! Let's rest for a bit, then I'll take you to the department store. But make this clear! I only have food coupons left. I can buy you two cans of food and some snacks, but don't even think about anything else. I've used up all my sugar coupons. But let me see if I can get some more so you can buy some yourself! I'll mail you some more when I get back to the North."

Who are you going to ask to do it?

"Of course it's the leader, who else could it be? But that's none of your business." Who else should she ask if not Xu Qingfeng? She always brings him plenty of food every time she comes back, and it's all meat. It's not unreasonable for him to pay for it!

After a while, An Moxue waved her hand and said, "Come on, let's go buy some good food. I didn't know you were pregnant and wouldn't eat this or that. Otherwise, how could my nephew be without food?"

"Mo Xue, you're still the best."

The two walked outside, and only then did she notice, "Mo Xue, when did that annoying guy leave?"

"While you were eating your second chicken leg?" The person was busy eating.

"Hehe, that's all thanks to you! But speaking of which, you haven't seen her for years, why is she still so hostile towards you?"

"Maybe we're just not compatible! After all, Wen Tao is so good to me! She's just jealous and resentful. I even forgot who she was at first. But seriously, doesn't she ever look in the mirror? She has absolutely no self-awareness."

"Maybe it's because her dad got promoted to commander of the 2nd Artillery Regiment that she started showing off!"

"Possibly, but she's gotten even darker and fatter now, and her skin is covered in huge pores, it's unbearable to look at."
