Seeing the embarrassed expression on Ren's mother's face, Ren's father, Ren Tingyi and Dai Yuecheng all held their bowls silently, looking as if they were thinking about something.
When Dai Yuecheng had someone follow Ren Tingxi, the person who reported it told her that as soon as Ren Tingxi returned to S City, he lived in a guesthouse with a girl.
At that time, she was very curious about Lan Xiaolan, and then she deliberately met her in the library. At that time, Ren Tingxi told her in person that she was his woman.
Now seeing Ren's mother like this, she became even more curious about Lan Xiaolan. It seemed that her mother-in-law and this girl knew each other.
But since she is Ren Tingxi's woman, why has she never heard anyone mention her even though she has been married for so long?
Now Dai Yuecheng became even more curious about Lan Xiaolan.
"Let's eat."
Father Ren gently picked up some food for Mother Ren and looked at her tenderly.
In fact, eight years ago, Ren's father and Ren Tingyi both knew that Ren's mother and Ren Tingxi had quarreled over a girl.
The girl seemed to be Ren Tingxi's classmate. They later fell in love. After their university internship, they lived together in an apartment under the name of a company for a while.
Ren's mother met the girl herself, and soon after, for some unknown reason, Ren Tingxi broke up with the girl.
In fact, it is nothing for young people to fall in love and break up and get back together. Ren's father and brother did not take this matter seriously.
But that day, Ren Tingxi was very angry with his mother, and then Ren Tingxi moved out and never came back to this home again.
In the past eight years, Ren Tingxi has only come back three times. One time was when his grandmother passed away and he came back to attend the funeral.
The second time was when Country E was building the Joey Bridge, and Ren Tingxi personally returned home to discuss investment with his father.
The last time was on the wedding day of Ren Tingyi and Dai Yuecheng. Out of consideration for her brother, she came back and stayed for three days before leaving.
Ren's father and Ren Tingyi had never expected that Ren Tingxi would be so cruel as to draw a line with this family just for a girl.
Moreover, at that time, they both had only heard of this girl, but today they saw her in person at the press conference, so they were naturally full of curiosity about her.
Everyone had their own thoughts during this meal, with ups and downs.
After Dai Yuecheng fell asleep, Ren Tingyi came to his brother's home in the west of the city.
Ren Tingxi knew that his brother was coming, so he opened the door with a smile.
"Brother, I've prepared some snacks on the balcony. Please sit and wait for me. I still have a fish soup to make. It will be ready soon."
Ren Tingyi looked at his younger brother who opened the door in an apron. He knew that his younger brother was going to cook for him again today.
Ren Tingyi walked around Ren Tingxi's room casually and found that his brother's room seemed to be different from before. Then he raised the corners of his mouth slightly and smiled.
"Brother, come and sit down. This is the fish soup I made for you."
"Why are the fish soup so small and round? What's the new method this time?"
"It's not a new dish. Today is Mid-Autumn Festival, and since you can't eat glutinous rice balls, I mashed some fish and rolled it into small balls, and used them as glutinous rice balls."
Ren Tingxi sat down, poured wine into the goblet in front of him, and then poured a glass of grape juice into the goblet in front of his brother.
Ren Tingyi has a lot of food taboos due to his illness, and alcohol is one of the biggest taboos, which Ren Tingxi knows clearly.
"It's almost 12 o'clock, and the Mid-Autumn Festival is almost over. Why are we still eating glutinous rice balls?"
"Brother, haven't you heard? The moon is fullest on the 16th. Look, I'm watching the moon from here on the balcony."
"Come on, let's have a drink, brothers."
The two raised their glasses, clinked them together, and drank the liquid in the glasses happily.
"You must not have eaten enough at home tonight. Come and pick up your chopsticks and try the food I made."
"How dare you say that? Mommy ate so much today that her face turned green."
Ren Tingxi raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Haha, it's not the first time or the second time that I don't go home for dinner. Mom won't be so angry, right?"
"Besides, I brought them so many gifts, they should be happy."
"It's not you who made our mother angry, but someone else."
"Oh? Would you like to hear more about it?" Ren Tingxi looked at his brother with confusion, not quite understanding.
"Tingxi, look at what this is?"
Ren Tingyi placed a piece of white tissue on the table. When he opened it, he saw a long, black woman's hair inside.
"This is?"
Ren Tingyi pointed to the edge of the balcony fence, then tapped the white tissue on the table: "This is a woman's hair I found on your balcony."
Ren Tingxi covered his mouth and laughed, shook his head, and pretended to be innocent.
"You still don't admit it?"
Ren Tingyi pointed at his grinning brother, then went to the shelf in the living room, took out the photo of Lan Xiaolan when she was 18 years old, and put it on the table.
Seeing his brother's actions, Ren Tingxi laughed even more happily. He only now realized that his elder brother was here today to "call for justice".
"There are two sets of toiletries in your bathroom, a girl's slippers are placed at the door, and there are women's long hair on the balcony and sofa..."
Ren Tingyi clicked on Lan Xiaolan's photo again and said, "Come, tell me what's the relationship between you and this girl."
Ren Tingxi had never intended to hide the matter of Lan Xiaolan from him, but he had never talked about his love life with his elder brother. When his brother asked him this, he didn't know where to start.
"I did find her, but I haven't caught her yet."
"There are girls in this world that my brother can't get. This is really news."
Ren Tingyi pointed at the strand of woman's hair on the table and smiled slightly, "She's already stayed over at your house, and you haven't gotten her yet?"
"Brother, what nonsense are you talking about? Come on, let's have another drink."
With a "bang", the two brothers smiled at each other. They were both men, and they understood some things.
"I heard from my subordinates that you invested in that project in Country E today. Is that true?"
Ren Tingxi lowered his eyes and nodded.
"That's a project that's bound to lose money. You haven't even made back your money from building the Joey Bridge in Country E. So, why are you investing in a new project?"
"She's planning to go to Country E for her doctorate. I'm worried about her going there alone, as a girl, to a country like that, and staying there for several years."
"Now that I've found her, I don't want to lose her again."
Ren Tingxi lowered his head, his voice slightly low.
It turned out that it was all for this girl. No wonder his brother lost his mind like a moth to a flame and invested in a project that was bound to lose money without considering the consequences.
Ren Tingyi didn't say anything, but took out a check from his pocket, a check for nine digits.
"Brother, no need! I have the money."
"You have? What's your family background? Don't I know your eldest brother?"
Ren Tingxi's face became even uglier when he held the check given by his brother.
