Chapter 95: Shameless
Pei Juanjuan didn't know how long she had been secretly observing Zhang Yang, nor how many questions she had asked him, both openly and covertly, but she still couldn't find out who his girlfriend was.
Pei Juanjuan fell into endless speculation. Calculating from Zhang Yang's last stay in China, she felt that his girlfriend must have been someone he met after returning. This led her to conclude that the girl must be Zhang Yang's colleague.
Because Zhang Yang works in the provincial capital every day, when he comes back on weekends, he also gets together with his three friends in the compound.
He has no other time to match his girlfriend.
Then, that girl must be someone we meet often at work.
Pei Juanjuan thought about this and remembered Zhang Yang had told her that this branch was being built in China and most of the employees were from abroad. Pei Juanjuan began to worry, wondering if this girl was a foreigner.
When he told Zhang Liangpeng about his concerns, Zhang Liangpeng couldn't believe it. He quickly waved his hands and shook his head, denying it, saying, "No, no, Zhang Yang will not marry a foreigner."
But Pei Juanjuan did not take this reassurance as she was still worried that Zhang Yang had a foreign girlfriend.
If this foreign friend was willing to stay in China, Pei Juanjuan would be fine with it. But if she wanted to return home and take Zhang Yang with her, Pei Juanjuan would risk her life to stop her.
After asking Zhang Yang countless times, Pei Juanjuan got the answer that he had to get the approval of the girl's family first before notifying Pei Juanjuan.
notify?
Pei Juanjuan was not satisfied with the wording.
Very dissatisfied.
The meaning of Zhang Yang's words was very clear. The person he identified would only be notified to Pei Juanjuan and Zhang Liangpeng, and they were not allowed to have any objections.
Even if you have an opinion, you have to hold it in.
Although Zhang Yang didn't say it so directly, that's what he meant!
This child! Pei Juanjuan was angry but dared not speak.
We can only find information from other places.
When spring turned to summer, Pei Juanjuan found Wei Ran.
When Wei Ran came back from school and was riding his bike through the compound, Pei Juanjuan stopped him.
It is safest to ask on weekdays when Zhang Yang is not around.
Wei Ran got off his bicycle and asked Pei Juanjuan with a smile, "Auntie, do you have something to talk to me about?"
Pei Juanjuan first asked Wei Ran if he was busy at work, and then asked when he would graduate from his self-study undergraduate program. After paving the way with caring words, she finally asked the question she wanted to ask.
After hearing this, Wei Ran paused for a moment. He had not expected that Zhang Yang and Xin Tianyi had done such a good job of keeping it a secret that they had not even told their families about their relationship.
Wei Ran said that she didn't know either and had never heard Zhang Yang mention it. Pei Juanjuan saw her eyes evasive and immediately guessed that Wei Ran was deliberately concealing it.
Knowing she couldn't get the truth out of Wei Ran, Pei Juanjuan angrily said, "Forget it, wait until Dabao and Tianyi come back, I'll ask them!"
When Wei Ran relayed this to Xin Tianyi, she was having dinner face to face with Zhang Yang.
The two of them had fast food in the evening. When they were sending Xin Tianyi home, Zhang Yang stood at the door and refused to leave, saying he was hungry.
"Are you hungry again? Didn't you just finish eating?" Xin Tianyi knew that Zhang Yang was being naughty. Every time they met, Zhang Yang was reluctant to go back directly after sending Xin Tianyi home.
He stood at the gate of the yard, refusing to leave, holding Xin Tianyi's hand. He was either thirsty, hungry, or needed to use the toilet.
But every time Xin Tianyi had no choice but to invite him in, he would sit on the sofa, doing nothing, just looking at her and smiling.
Instantly no longer thirsty or hungry and no need to go to the bathroom.
Anyway, he just found ways to play the cheating game. Xin Tianyi even gave him a nickname, calling him Little Cheapskate.
But today he seemed to be really hungry. After coming in, he went straight to the kitchen. When he came out, he brought a small pot with some rice noodles cooked in it.
He also added some green vegetables and eggs, and cut a few slices of luncheon meat. When he brought it out, he asked Xin Tianyi to put on the heat insulation pad.
Xin Tianyi glanced at Xiao Guo and asked him in surprise, "Are you really hungry?"
"Really?" Zhang Yang went to get another pair of chopsticks, handed them to Xin Tianyi, and muttered, "I don't know why, but my stomach feels like it hasn't eaten anything after eating hamburgers or fried chicken. When I get home, I always have another bowl of noodles or rice noodles. Of course, a plate of dumplings is best!"
Xin Tianyi took the chopsticks, then looked down at his stomach, feeling very hesitant.
Although it's the transition between spring and summer, it's already been very hot these past few days. Zhang Yang is wearing shorts and a short-sleeved shirt, and I'm also wearing a short-sleeved shirt and long pants. In a few days, I'll wear even less. If I keep eating like this, I'm bound to gain a few pounds.
Zhang Yang took a small bowl, filled it up, and handed it to Xin Tianyi.
Before Xin Tianyi could say anything, he explained, "You won't get fat if you eat more vegetables and eggs."
Xin Tianyi glared at him: "Then why did you give me so much rice noodles and luncheon meat?"
"I'm not finished yet. Some more rice noodles and luncheon meat will make up for the meal."
"You mean, the foods cancel each other out."
"Yeah, look, the vegetables offset the rice noodles, and the eggs offset the luncheon meat. So there aren't any calories, right?"
Xin Tianyi looked at Zhang Yang talking nonsense seriously, then lowered his head to look at the things in the bowl. He felt that he had been infected by Zhang Yang. If he didn't eat these, it would really feel like he hadn't eaten at all.
Zhang Yang continued, "Eat quickly and try the rice noodles I cooked."
Xin Tianyi was persuaded. She had gained a lot of weight in the past six months since Zhang Yang came back.
But every time she was always assimilated by Zhang Yang. The two of them were eating rice noodles with their heads touching each other when Wei Ran called.
Knowing that Zhang Yang was there, Wei Ran asked Xin Tianyi to turn on the speakerphone so that the three of them could chat together.
"Ask me?" Xin Tianyi quickly looked at Zhang Yang. "If Aunt Pei asks me, what should I say? I say I don't know? What will happen next?"
"Don't show up in front of her." Zhang Yang offered a solution, "Then she won't be able to ask you."
"But I have to visit grandpa this weekend." Xin Tianyi said, "I haven't been back this month."
"I'll bring grandpa over and let him stay here for a few days."
Xin Tianyi felt that this was not a solution, he couldn't hide forever.
She looked up at Zhang Yang, who seemed to know what she was thinking and said, "Then let me go see Aunt Wang Fang right away. After getting her consent, I won't have to worry about my mother asking again."
"No, no!" Xin Tianyi waved his hands quickly, "Now is not the time."
