Chapter 424 Sweet Blow
Li Jianfeng immediately felt humiliated and turned to roar at Xiao Cheng in the car—
"Xiao Cheng, don't be so smug! Let me tell you, I'm giving face to my sister-in-law! It has nothing to do with you..."
The words "none of them" were swept away by a black whirlwind.
Li Jianfeng, glaring angrily, could only see the red taillights disappearing from his sight in an instant.
All that's left for him to enjoy are car exhaust fumes.
Li Jianfeng was furious and really wanted to pull out a torpedo!
"Brother Feng."
Who came up with this ridiculous nickname? And the voice is so childish. Li Jianfeng suddenly turned around.
A small figure carrying a large bowl of glutinous rice balls walked towards him: "These are glutinous rice balls from my sister-in-law. She said she brought them out for you to eat when she saw you coming."
A sweet and fragrant aroma wafted over.
Li Jianfeng sniffed and turned his head arrogantly: "I don't like eating glutinous rice balls."
Xiao Wei spoke again, repeating Bai Lu's parting words without missing a single one: "My sister-in-law said that eating tangyuan (sweet rice balls) represents family reunion, and that harmony in the family brings prosperity in all things."
Li Jianfeng turned his proud head back and stared at the small figure in front of him and the big bowl of glutinous rice balls.
The round, plump glutinous rice balls, steaming hot and fragrant, look quite delicious.
He's never eaten anything like this before in his life. Could it be poisonous?
"Give me one to try."
Xiao Wei raised the bowl high with both hands.
Winter has arrived, the weather is cold, and the glutinous rice balls are still steaming hot. Li Jianfeng took the bowl.
I scooped up a big, round, white glutinous rice ball with a small spoon and condescended to take a bite.
Three seconds later.
They ate everything, soup and dumplings.
"Is there any more?"
Xiao Wei knew this would happen; his sister-in-law was always incredibly insightful: "Yes, there are many."
"Take me there quickly!"
"good."
"Brother Feng, wait a minute! Where do we put all these gifts?"
"You're so amazing, you can even back up your car by yourself, can't you put your gift somewhere by yourself?!"
Wu You: "..."
Xiao Wei turned around and said, "Let's move it into our house. That's what my sister-in-law said."
"Okay, okay!"
Wu You made his decision in just a tenth of a second: abandon the madman and decisively join the human cubs!
The entrance to the Pingcheng Civil Affairs Bureau.
Xiao Cheng had just parked his car when his phone rang.
"Is that Xiao Cheng? Ruolin was in a car accident in front of your electronics store!"
"Ruolin doesn't have your number, so she can only call me. Please take her to the hospital quickly! She's my only daughter, and nothing can happen to her!"
"Ruolin traveled all the way to Pingcheng yesterday with a new project to see you. She didn't arrive until late at night, and she came to your shop first thing this morning to discuss cooperation. You can't let anything happen to her! You're the only person she knows in Pingcheng. Please take her to the hospital quickly. Call me if anything happens..."
Yun Ruolin's father spoke with great anxiety and worry, which seemed genuine.
Xiao Cheng said, "Okay, don't worry."
I had just hung up the phone when another call came in.
It's the phone number of the electronics store.
Zhang San and Li Si went to the new town to help with the housewarming banquet and found two trustworthy underlings to look after the shop.
As soon as the call connected, the younger brother reported truthfully: "Brother Cheng, there's a woman who was hit by a car in front of the store. She said she's your friend, named Yun Ruolin, and that she wants to see you."
"How are your injuries?"
"She was still breathing, there was blood on her forehead, and blood on her white dress around her knees. We don't know how serious her injuries were. She fainted right after she finished telling us."
Bai Lu frowned.
What a coincidence!
Why do I smell dog blood?
Isn't this the classic ghost story plot from later domineering CEO novels, or the classic melodramatic ghost scene from domineering CEO TV dramas?
Why did she have to bring up a new project right when she and Xiao Cheng were about to get their marriage certificate?
Why did a car accident have to happen just when she and Xiao Cheng were about to get their marriage certificate?
If Xiao Cheng goes to the hospital today, he'll be held up by all sorts of excuses and won't be able to get out.
"Lulu?"
"I want to get my marriage certificate!" Bai Lu said without thinking. "You should go see Yun Ruolin first, then go after you get your certificate."
Xiao Cheng looked at the girl's stubborn and angry face, her eyes fixed on the Civil Affairs Bureau outside the car window, and gently rubbed her head.
He chuckled softly, "What are you thinking? I'm not a doctor, what could I do there? Aji is in the shop, just have him take Yun Ruolin to the hospital."
Bai Lu suddenly turned her head.
Xiao Cheng had already instructed the person on the other end of the phone: "Take Yun Ruolin to the People's Hospital for emergency treatment and find Director Fang."
"Okay, I understand!"
Bai Lu watched as Xiao Cheng hung up the phone before asking, bewildered, "Then why did you call me just now?"
Xiao Cheng lowered his gaze, bent down, and picked up the Seven Stars Accompanying the Moon that had fallen under the seat.
"Just wanted to remind you that your hair clip fell off."
Bai Lu was taken aback.
Then I remembered that she had scratched her hair in frustration earlier, and that's probably when she pulled it out.
By the time Bai Lu realized what was happening, Xiao Cheng had already clipped the hair clip back into the bun on the back of her head.
Bai Lu rushed over and gave him a big kiss: "Honey, you look especially handsome today!"
"You're so smart, I like you so much!"
Xiao Cheng enjoyed the affectionate address, but was dissatisfied with the praise: "Wasn't I smart before?"
"Of course not!"
Bai Lu shook her head vigorously: "You've always been smart, and you've always been incredibly handsome!"
Xiao Cheng raised an eyebrow: "So?"
"That's why I've always liked you so much! Let's go get our marriage certificate!" Bai Lu quickly opened the door and got out of the car.
But they were pulled back the next second.
She narrowed her eyes and stared intently at the culprit: "If you're not going to get the marriage certificate, what else do you want to do?"
