"Honey, I'm almost there. Are you going to pick me up at the elevator?" As soon as he entered the residential area, Jiang Xia couldn't wait to call Lin Yanwan.
"No, I'm a grown woman, why do I need someone to pick me up when I go home?" Lin Yanwan refused without hesitation on the phone.
Then he turned to Ji Wanqiu and said, "Mom, Jiang Xia is here. I'm going to pick him up."
"Xiaxia's here? Go on, go on, did you buy the soy sauce I asked you to buy earlier?"
“I asked him to buy it and bring it over.”
"It's just a few steps outside, why do you always order Xiaxia around?" Ji Wanqiu said with a hint of dissatisfaction.
Lin Yanwan couldn't help but pout: "Mom, he's not your son-in-law yet. I'm your daughter. Why are you siding with outsiders?"
“Why not? He calls me Mom much more affectionately than you do.” Ji Wanqiu retorted without hesitation. “Hurry up and pick him up. Oh, and buy a drink while you’re at it. We’re having spicy fish for lunch, it might be a bit spicy.”
"oh."
Just as Lin Yanwan was about to leave, Xiaoman ran over and hugged her leg, preventing her from leaving.
"Sister, I want to go pick up my brother-in-law too!" She raised her little face and looked at him expectantly.
"Xiaoman, it's cold outside. Your sister will be back in a little while. Will you open the door for us?" Lin Yanwan squatted down and smiled as she patted her younger sister's head.
"Hmm, Xiaoman wants to drink juice!"
Seeing her younger sister's serious expression, Lin Yanwan inexplicably felt that she just wanted to go to the supermarket to buy drinks, and picking up Jiang Xia was secondary.
"Okay, I'll buy you some orange juice with pulp."
"Yay!"
Xiaoman let go of her hand, ran over and hugged Yuyuan, who had turned into a big cat. She pinched its pink paw pads and said cutely, "Then Xiaoman and Yuyuan will stay at home and open the door for my sister and brother-in-law."
"Good boy/girl~"
After comforting her younger sister, Lin Yanwan changed her shoes, opened the door, and went out. She watched the elevator slowly stop on the fifth floor and guessed that Jiang Xia had probably arrived.
After opening the door, Jiang Xia came out with soy sauce in his hand, a teasing smile on his face: "Didn't you say you weren't coming to pick me up? Baby misses me too, doesn't she?"
"No way..."
Before she could finish speaking, Jiang Xia hugged her soft body, pressed her against the wall, and kissed her pink lips.
The motion-activated lights in the elevator went out just then, and the two embraced and kissed passionately in the dim space. Even though they hadn't seen each other for only one night, their hearts were already uncontrollably set on wanting more.
About a minute later, Jiang Xia, panting heavily, reluctantly released her slightly swollen lips.
"Baby, I miss you," he whispered, pressing his forehead against Lin Yanwan's.
"I don't want to," Lin Yanwan said, wiping the drool from her lips, her words contradicting her true feelings.
It was at this moment that the elevator lights went out, otherwise you could definitely see her blushing cheeks.
Jiang Xia smiled, not exposing her proud side, even though she had been very attentive during the kiss.
Where are Mom and Dad?
"Cooking fish in the kitchen."
"Oh, I want another kiss. Come inside, we didn't get enough kisses earlier."
"I'm not kissing you anymore! Your lips are all swollen from all your kisses."
Lin Yanwan grinned, showing her neat little white teeth, and gently bit him.
She had long suspected that this guy had asked her to come out so he could take advantage of her, and her guess came true.
"Just one kiss, this time I won't go inside, just a kiss on the lips."
Just as Lin Yanwan was hesitating about whether to agree, the sound of a door opening suddenly came from the hallway, followed by footsteps, and the motion-activated lights turned on.
Jiang Xia couldn't help but show a regretful expression.
Lin Yanwan's lips curled into a slight smile, and she whispered with a hint of schadenfreude, "Someone's plans have fallen through~"
"Hmph, don't be too happy yet. I'll deal with you when we get back to the capital!"
"Who will deal with whom is still unknown," Lin Yanwan said defiantly.
I wonder which guy in my past life was so exploited by her that he couldn't get out of bed for even a day.
Before the neighbors arrived, Lin Yanwan pulled Jiang Xia into the stairwell.
"What are you doing here? Aren't you going home?" Jiang Xia was taken aback.
"My mom asked me to buy a drink; Xiaoman wants to drink juice."
Lin Yanwan wrinkled her nose: "I just asked you to bring a bottle of soy sauce, and my mom said I only know how to order you around all day. Did I order you around?"
Jiangxia nodded seriously.
"Mom is right."
"How did I ever order you around!"
Jiang Xia pulled her hand down and winked with a grin: "Just tell me if it's obedient or not, this is your most obedient summon."
Lin Yanwan blushed and couldn't help but spit out, "Stinky mango."
Then, in retaliation, I pinched him.
Jiang Xia took a cold breath.
Afterwards, the two went down the stairs and bought a bottle of juice and a bottle of soy milk at the supermarket.
Drinking fruit juice in winter can be a bit cold, but soy milk can be heated.
The two walked home hand in hand, and Jiang Xia knocked on the door.
Xiaoman, who had been waiting for a long time, opened the door with taro balls in her arms and said with great surprise, "Brother-in-law, you're here! Xiaoman has been waiting for you for so long."
"Little Man, be good, your brother-in-law will play with you in a bit~" Jiang Xia pinched his sister-in-law's little face, put the soy sauce and drinks he bought on the table, and then took the taro balls from her hands.
It's been half a year since I last saw it, and I didn't expect the taro balls to have grown so much, especially the two little balls, which wobble when they walk.
"Taro Ball, do you still recognize me?" He scratched Taro Ball's chin.
Meow~
Taro Ball rubbed its cute cat head against his palm.
"Looks like we know each other, she's so well-behaved."
I played with Yuyuan for a while, then let it play by itself. I was just thinking to myself, should I take Yuyuan with me when I go to the capital in a few days?
After all, his father-in-law and mother-in-law are usually quite busy, and his sister-in-law has to go to school, so there's no one to take care of Yuyuan.
Okay, all of the above are just excuses. He just wanted to take the taro balls with him, just like in his previous life.
The problem is that my sister-in-law and Yuyuan have developed feelings for each other, so she probably won't agree.
"Xiaxia's here?" Ji Wanqiu came out wiping her hands, and her face lit up with a big smile when she saw Jiang Xia.
Last night, Lin Gaoyuan told her about his conversation with Jiang Xia, and he grew to like this excellent son-in-law even more.
Putting everything else aside, the fact that he quietly saved the family by using the copyrights to Tom and Jerry merchandise is enough to win them all over, and now he treats them like his own son.
"mom."
Jiang Xia called out with a smile.
He shyly handed over the note Xia Shanshan had left for him: "My mom went out today and asked me to come here for lunch."
Ji Wanqiu glanced at the delicate handwriting on the note and was immediately delighted. She knew perfectly well that his visit for dinner was a pretense; his real purpose was to find her daughter.
"Xiaxia, if you want to come over for dinner, just let me know. I'll cook for you every day. Or, you can stay out of the house tonight."
Lin Yanwan was stunned. Her mother had just sold her own daughter? Where was he going to sleep if he didn't go back?!
Could it be that I'm going to sleep in her bed?
