"Xiao Qin, what are you doing here?" As soon as Xu Chen and Wang Li stepped out, they saw Qin Junlin waiting for them by the roadside, with an SUV parked next to him.
"Boss, how can you go on a date with your wife without a car? Here." Qin Junlin tossed over the car keys, which Xu Chen grabbed without hesitation.
“What will you do if we open?” Wang Li said with a smile.
"Leave me alone, sister-in-law, and start your own private time."
Xiao Qin waved to the two men, hailed a taxi, and left. His original intention was to be a driver and a bag carrier, and after his boss and sister-in-law finished their date, he would take his boss to get ready so he could look handsome at the party tomorrow.
"I'm not going to be a third wheel anymore, boss. Have fun." Qin Junlin smiled as he watched Xu Chen drive away in the rearview mirror.
"Wow, Chenchen, a Lamborghini!" As soon as she got in the car, Wang Li looked around curiously. After Xu Chen fastened his seatbelt, he turned on the navigation and started entering the destination.
"Chenchen, new driver, drive carefully, after all, your dear wife is in the car."
"Okay, let's go to the Forbidden City first, then have lunch on the pedestrian street, go shopping in the afternoon, and watch a movie in the evening. Lili, do you have any other suggestions?"
Wang Li opened the food recommendations on her phone.
"Xu Chen, this place, this place, netizens say the roast duck here tastes really good."
"Okay, then let's try it tonight."
"Set off!"
Xu Chen started the car and headed towards their destination. Along the way, Wang Li shared her celebrity gossip with Xu Chen, and Xu Chen responded to each of the rumors he heard at school, which touched Wang Li deeply.
The morning passed under a bright, sunny sky. The two drove to the pedestrian street, which was bustling with people, mostly couples. They got out of the car and strolled around happily. Wang Li even queued up to buy Xu Chen milk tea, making the young men in line nearby quite envious. Xu Chen sighed inwardly, "No wonder everyone on Earth thinks shopping is tiring; I've experienced it for myself now."
"Chenchen, what are you thinking about again? There's an arcade over there, why don't you go try it out?" Wang Li suggested.
Xu Chen nodded, and the two headed towards the arcade. Less than half a minute later, Wang Li's attention was drawn to a little girl standing next to a trash can.
"Xu Chen, Xu Chen, she's so cute!" Wang Li exclaimed excitedly to Xu Chen.
Xu Chen glanced at her and saw that the little girl did indeed have an exquisitely beautiful face, like a miniature version of a peerless beauty. He nodded in agreement.
"It's cute, but a bit dirty," Xu Chen commented.
The little girl blinked her big, bright eyes and said to Xu Chen and Wang Li, "Sister and Uncle, I can't find my mom. Can you take me to find her?"
Wang Li agreed to the little girl's request almost as soon as she finished speaking.
"Okay, okay, I promise you. Hurry up, Xu Chen, let's get her into the car... Uh, no, let's take her to get a bath first and buy her some new clothes."
"Sister and Uncle? This little brat..." He shook his head helplessly, then took Wang Li's hand. Wang Li held the little girl's hand and looked around for a place to bathe. The scene of the three of them frozen in time really looked like a family of three.
"Uncle, what's your name?" The little girl, who had finished bathing and put on new clothes, glanced at Wang Li as she walked away and seized the opportunity to ask about Xu Chen.
"Uncle's name is Xu Chen, Xu as in Xu Chen, Chen as in Xu Chen. Do you understand, little one?"
"Uncle, can you take a picture with me?" The little girl looked at Wang Li, who was approaching with fried chicken, and quickly said to Xu Chen.
"And you... Oh, okay, remember to tell your uncle your name after the photo is taken."
Seeing that Xu Chen agreed, the little girl took out her small phone. Xu Chen was suddenly stunned. Didn't she have a phone? Couldn't she find her parents? Didn't her family save her phone numbers? That shouldn't be the case. Although full of doubts, Xu Chen still obediently took a picture with the little girl. To take care of Wang Li, who had bought fried chicken, the little girl also showed a sweet smile and took a picture with the two of them.
Just as Xu Chen was about to ask her name, an old man appeared beside them. In the blink of an eye, the little girl jumped into the old man's arms like a little rabbit.
"Little sister, who is this?" Wang Li asked with a hint of disappointment. After all, the sweet and soft little girl who was calling her "sister" and snuggling in her arms just ten minutes ago was now in someone else's arms.
"Big sister, this is my grandpa. Thank you, big sister and big brother. Grandpa and I are going home now." Wang Li was about to show off the fried chicken she bought for her when she heard this and felt a little sad.
"Oh, oh, okay, goodbye little sister."
Goodbye, sister.
At this moment, Xu Chen had another question: his granddaughter was missing, but the old man didn't seem worried at all; instead, he was smiling. It was really strange. Watching the "grandfather and granddaughter" walk away, Xu Chen touched his nose, turned around, and pulled the sad Wang Li away from the place.
"What's wrong, Lili? Do you really like this little girl?"
"Hmm, she looks just like Zhi'er."
"Lolita complex? Sister complex? Lili, this is unacceptable."
"Don't talk nonsense, I just simply like cute little girls."
"That's easy, that's easy. We'll work hard and have it ourselves," Xu Chen whispered in her ear. Wang Li shyly slapped Xu Chen's shoulder, and then the two continued strolling around the street.
"Mommy, I know my brother-in-law's name now." At this moment, the little girl was in a nanny van, acting coquettishly with a beautiful woman. The woman was in her early fifties, but because she was well-maintained, she looked like she was in her thirties. Her "grandfather" was standing respectfully by the car door.
"Lingling, don't talk nonsense. Isn't he your brother-in-law?" She touched her daughter's little face and admonished her.
"Didn't my sister insist on marrying him? His photo is still on her desk."
The beautiful woman looked helplessly at her mischievous little daughter, then asked the butler, Uncle Wang, curiously, "Did Lingling meet him today?"
"Yes, Chairman Zhao, he is right here on this pedestrian street."
"Uncle Wang, why are you joining in Lingling's nonsense too?"
Uncle Wang smiled and said, "Chairman Zhao, Miss Lingling said that if I don't help her find her brother-in-law soon, she'll rip off all my beards. So, when I found Xu Chen today, I told her immediately."
Zhao Wuyan glanced at Lingling, who was in the back seat of the car, sending a voice message to her older sister in a childish voice, and sighed, "No wonder the older generation always says not to raise daughters. Now, my two little ones are all focused on that boy, and I feel a little lost." (The author has absolutely no preference for sons over daughters.)
"Chairman Zhao, didn't we already investigate? She is indeed very outstanding, and her family background is barely a match for Miss Zhao."
"Yes, that's why I didn't cut off Yiyi's unrequited love. If the other person were a poor boy from a different social class, I would have drowned him long ago."
"Chairman Zhao, what do you plan to do? It's not a good idea to let Miss continue to have unrequited love."
"Let's take another look and observe further."
