Chapter 159 Blind Date
Shuang Xu sent a message to Shu Yang and Xiao Liao asking, "Do you mind if I bring a friend with me?"
"Is it the boss lady?" She is the big boss of the Cloud Shield Group. Her currency is not in the same league as hers. Xiao Liao asked cautiously, "Is he willing to play with me if I play with him?"
Shuang Xu laughed: "It's not him, it's Manman."
Xiao Liao breathed a sigh of relief: "Of course you are welcome! Your friends are my friends."
Shu Yang exposed it: "The main reason is that we are short of one person. The partner she just met has to accompany her boyfriend to let us go."
The place Xiao Liao booked was in a teahouse. It was called a teahouse, but in fact it was a place to relax and unwind, where one could drink tea, play mahjong, and have cats keep them company.
Shuang Xu brought some milk tea and fried chicken on the way. Lu Manman was also very considerate. When she came, she brought some fruits, ice cream, and cakes. Her hands were full.
At the beginning of the mahjong game, there was a cat lying on the legs of each of the four people.
Shuang Xu was extremely lucky and won several games in a row. Xiao Liao took out a coin to pay the bill and sighed, "Luckily the young lady boss didn't come, otherwise I would be bankrupt by now."
Shu Yang comforted her: "Don't worry, your total assets are not even as much as the daily income in his fund account. He doesn't care about your little bit of money."
Shuang Xu thought of the phone call He Tingzhou received, and asked Lu Manman curiously: "Didn't Uncle Lu come back? Why are you still out playing?"
"My mother asked me to come out," Lu Manman said, "We have guests at home today."
Shuang Xu was even more puzzled: "Is your cousin also considered a guest?"
"He's not my cousin." Lu Manman reached out to touch the cards and said without hesitation, "He's my dad's comrade-in-arms. He came from Lincheng to play with his wife and daughter. My parents invited them to our house."
She stopped talking before she finished.
Shuang Xu paused stroking the cat, raised his eyes, and made eye contact with Lu Manman, who reacted belatedly.
"My cousin, did you go to my house? My mom didn't tell me. I was wondering how you had time to come out and play."
Shuang Xu didn't say anything.
When there are guests at home, it is etiquette for the daughter to entertain them at home. There is no reason to kick the child out.
Why would a guest send Lu Manman out to play by himself, and specifically call He Tingzhou over?
"So..." Lu Manman began to sort out the situation, "The current situation is that my mother called my cousin to my house and ordered me out. Damn, what are they planning behind my back?"
Shuang Xu said: "Maybe he is planning to give you a surprise."
Shu Yang knew very well that He Wenjing went to Yundun to look for Shuangxu. She revealed the secret to her junior schoolmate in front of her: "Oh, this is a blind date. Your mother is even wary of you, her own daughter."
The Lu family has only one daughter, and He Wenjing loves her unconditionally. What is there to be wary of her?
Lu Manman is smart, so she can naturally turn this around.
With the previous experience of He Wenjing looking for Shuang Xu, it was hard for her not to suspect that her mother had ulterior motives today.
She stopped playing mahjong and got up without saying a word, picked up her bag and ran: "I'm going home to see what they are doing!"
Shu Yang said loudly from behind: "Wait online for the follow-up."
Xiao Liao: “Add one!”
As soon as she left, Shu Yang and Xiao Liao looked at Shuang Xu at the same time.
He Wenjing's intention was obvious. Shuang Xu didn't know whether he didn't notice the problem or didn't care. He concentrated on feeding the greedy cat with cucumber and looked calm and composed.
Shu Yang: "So calm, aren't you worried at all?"
Shuang Xu looked nonchalant: "What are you worried about? Am I not pretty or not good enough?"
Shu Yang smiled and rubbed her face vigorously: "I really like your confidence now."
Half an hour later, Lu Manman's video popped up.
As soon as Shuang Xu picked up the phone, Shu Yang and Xiao Liao came over at the same time, and the three of them looked at the camera together.
Lu Manman snorted at the camera, then said stealthily, "Don't make any noise. I'm climbing over the wall now."
"Be careful--" Before Shuang Xu could finish her words, she yelled.
"I sprained my ankle, damn it!"
Frost Preface: “…”
Lu Manman turned the camera over, and clusters of colorful plants flashed through the lens. She crouched as she made her way through the garden, saying, "We'll be discovered if we go through the front door. They're in the living room. I'll go around the garden first and eavesdrop."
The mahjong game was over, and a lively game was about to begin. Xiao Liao moved all the food and drinks over, and he and Shu Yang surrounded Shuang Xu on both sides. The three of them watched the live broadcast of Miss Lu climbing over the wall to return to her home in broad daylight.
There was a rustling sound in the background for a long time, and the camera was seen circling around in the garden for ten minutes without leaving.
Xiao Liao sighed: "Is this the world of the rich? The garden is bigger than the park next to my house."
Lu Manman: "No, I seem to be lost..."
"Are you sure you didn't climb over the wrong wall and into someone else's house?" Shuang Xu said, "This will determine whether we are watching the lively crowd or your accomplices."
"I've never been in our garden at this height. OK, let's get out."
The scene turned from the lawn to the house, the camera was shaking badly, and Shu Yang suddenly asked: "Do you have chickens at home?"
Lu Manman reacted violently: "What are you talking about? Don't insult my family's reputation!"
"I mean, a chicken head is stable. You asked a chicken to hold your phone for you. I'm almost dizzy."
“…”
Lu Manman walked up the stairs, quietly opened the door and entered the room, and the picture finally stabilized. Looking at the height of the camera, it is hard not to wonder if she was crawling forward.
