"Director Fang, Comrade Fang Huai, what brings you here? Please come in."
Xu Junhui opened the door and invited them in. Then, looking at Nuonuo, he unconsciously raised his voice and said, "Uncle remembers you. Your name is Nuonuo, right?"
The adorable little dot says, "Hello, Uncle!"
Nuonuo listened to Xu Junhui's voice and didn't think there was anything wrong with it, because almost everyone spoke to her in such a 'sweet' voice.
However, the Fang brothers, who were standing nearby, were hit with a devastating blow, feeling as if they were about to vomit up the food they had just eaten.
A grown man speaking in such a strained voice gives me goosebumps!
They don't even realize that they treat Nuonuo the same way.
To prevent them from actually vomiting, Fang Hui strode into the courtyard.
"Deputy Director Xu, sister-in-law, have you eaten yet?"
"We've already eaten, please have a seat. Oh, Nuonuo's here too!"
Zhang Yumei and the others got up and greeted the Fang brothers. Then they saw Nuonuo eating a string of candied hawthorns.
Seeing Nuonuo stick out her little tongue and lick the candied hawthorn skewer, then lick it again, was just too adorable!
Xu Hongxia rested her chin on her hands and started grinning foolishly at Nuonuo, once again fantasizing that Xu Junhui's children were just as cute as Nuonuo or Dundun.
Upon seeing the others, Nuonuo immediately greeted them obediently: "Hello Grandma~ Hello Auntie~ Hello Sister~ Hello Brother~"
"Nuonuo, hello there too~ Do you want to come down and play with your brothers?"
When Huang Qinqin saw Fang Hui and Fang Huai coming together, she guessed they must have something important to discuss. So she offered to look after Nuonuo for the time being.
Upon hearing this, Chen Mai and Chen Liang also looked at Nuonuo expectantly. They had wanted to play with Nuonuo last time, but since it was their first meeting, they were too embarrassed to bring it up.
Now that Huang Qinqin has asked on their behalf, they are hoping that Nuonuo will agree. They haven't played with such a pretty little sister before.
Nuonuo glanced at Fang Huai, who smiled gently and said, "Nuonuo, how about you decide for yourself? Do you want to play with your brothers?"
Nuonuo thought quietly for a while, then nodded: "Yes~ Nuonuo wants to play with her brothers~"
"Okay, Nuonuo can play with her brothers here. Dad and Uncle will go inside to talk about something. Don't be scared, Nuonuo, okay?"
Okay~
Fang Huai put Nuonuo on the ground and then said to Zhang Xiumei, "Could you please keep an eye on Nuonuo for me, sister-in-law? If she seems upset, please come in and call me. Thank you."
"Okay, we'll take good care of Nuonuo. You can go and talk about business."
Zhang Yumei put the candied hawthorns down, then took Nuonuo's little hand and walked with her to Chen Mai and the others, instructing, "You're with your little sister, so be careful when you play, okay?"
"Uh-huh!"
Chen Mai and Chen Liang each held one of Nuonuo's hands, squatted down, and looked Nuonuo up at eye level: "Little sister~ shall we play Eagle Catches Chicks?"
Okay~
Xu Family Study
That's how it is, so tomorrow is an excellent opportunity.
After listening, Xu Weiguo slapped the table happily: "Great! This time we'll definitely catch them red-handed!"
"Then I'll go back to the station later and find some brothers to go stake out the place together tomorrow at noon."
Fang Hui smiled slyly: "I'll also find some people who are 'good friends' with Xu Weimin to go with us."
Xu Weiguo and he exchanged a knowing smile: "Alright, then let's wait and see what the show is about. By the way, if Xu Weimin isn't here, let's let him off the hook for now."
"Give him some hope first, let him try to pull some strings, and let Zhang Jianhong find an opportunity to buy the house."
Fang Hui nodded: "Okay, I'll bring a few brothers with me tomorrow. That way he won't be able to deny it in front of his colleagues."
After deciding on the specific procedures, Fang Hui and his team planned to head back.
Stepping out of the courtyard, Fang Huai looked at Nuonuo, who was playing happily, but didn't call out to her immediately. Instead, he waited until she stopped before speaking.
"Nuonuo, say goodbye to your brothers. We're going home now."
Upon hearing Fang Huai's words, Nuonuo loudly replied, "Okay~"
Goodbye, brothers~
Nuonuo quickly moved her short legs and pounced on Fang Huai.
Fang Huai saw that Nuonuo's face was flushed and she was covered in sweat. He rummaged through his pockets but didn't find a handkerchief, so he lifted up his shirt and wiped Nuonuo's sweat.
"Is Nuonuo hot? Would you like some water?"
Fang Hui was a bit better than Fang Huai. Seeing that Nuonuo was sweating so much, he immediately went to ask Zhang Yumei for a glass of water.
"I'd like some water~ Thank you, Uncle~"
Glug~ Glug~
Nuonuo gripped the cup with both hands and eagerly drank several large gulps of water.
Fang Hui was worried that Nuonuo would choke, so he said nervously, "Nuonuo, don't rush, drink slowly. If you're still not satisfied after you finish, your uncle will pour you more."
After drinking the water, Nuonuo's face wasn't so red anymore: "Nuonuo doesn't want any more, thank you Uncle~"
Seeing that Nuonuo said she didn't want it anymore, Fang Hui returned the cup to Zhang Yumei: "Thank you, sister-in-law. We'll head back now."
Zhang Yumei took the cup and then handed him a bag of dried longan: "Director Fang, this is dried longan. Nuonuo likes to eat it. You can take it back for Nuonuo to eat."
Fang Hui was originally going to refuse, but when he heard that Nuonuo liked it, he hesitated for a moment, then took out a dried longan and handed it to Nuonuo: "Does Nuonuo like this?"
Nuonuo's big eyes lit up when she saw the dried longan: "Mmm! This smells so good~ It's sweet~ It's delicious~"
Once Fang Hui confirmed that Nuonuo really liked it, he accepted it, since the two families would only become closer in the future anyway.
"Thank you, sister-in-law, then I'll shamelessly accept it. We came empty-handed, and now we're even taking food and gifts, haha."
Zhang Yumei waved her hand and said with a smile, "This isn't worth much. You should bring more Nuonuo over. Nuonuo is so well-behaved and cute. Seeing her makes me much happier."
Chen Mai returned the candied hawthorns to her. She had only eaten a few; she had been too busy playing to eat much.
Nuonuo received the candied hawthorn and smiled sweetly, "Thank you, brother~"
After seeing off the Fang brothers and Nuonuo, Chen Liang awkwardly walked over to Xu Fang's side.
A little embarrassed, she said, "Mom, I also want a little sister. Could you give me and my brother a little sister?"
Xu Fang said irritably, "I want a daughter! Do you think it's like laying eggs? You can't just have one whenever you want."
After being rejected, Chen Liang walked back to Chen Mai's side unhappily.
Chen Mai looked at him, but couldn't bear to tell him that Xu Fang had always hoped for a daughter when she was pregnant with him.
Unfortunately, the outcome was obvious. Xu Fang also said that she would not have any more children, for fear of having another son.
