But when she looked at him again, he had returned to his usual cool and calm self, as if the burning sensation was just her illusion.
Regardless of whether it was an illusion or something else, Ning Xi was not so angry after being interrupted like this.
Because it was too late, the two of them didn't go to pick up Shuo Shuo. They went home together, took a shower, and went to bed.
The next morning, Ning Xi made breakfast. Because they had agreed to visit the kindergarten today, she had to pick up Shuo Shuo in the morning.
However, before going out, Ning Xi still called Mo You first.
She didn't answer at first, until she called twice in a row, and then I heard her voice, which was so hoarse that she was almost speechless.
"Youyou, how are you?" Ning Xi was a little worried.
"It's okay, I'm sleeping."
Ning Xi listened to her soft tone. Although she was worried, she didn't want to ask any more questions for fear of making her sad again.
I could only comfort her: "That's good. If you have any problems, just come to me. I'm always here."
"Hmm..." Mo You's nose felt sore again, and his eyes, which had already dried up from crying, became moist again.
However, she quickly suppressed her emotions and repeatedly assured her friends that she was fine and not to worry.
After finishing the call with Mo You, Ning Xi changed into a casual white T-shirt and a denim A-line skirt, and went out with Qin Yan, who was also wearing a casual beige short-sleeved shirt and camel-colored cropped pants, to pick up the child from Ning Lan's house.
On the way there, Ning Xi checked her phone and didn't see any news about Xiangge's birthday party last night. It seemed that Director Zhuang had suppressed it.
This is good, as it can reduce the damage to Mo You.
But she didn't know that the person who suppressed the news was not Director Zhuang, but Qin Yan who was beside her.
Although he had Gao Yufei's infidelity exposed to Ning Xi's venting, he would not offend Director Zhuang for this matter.
Therefore, after the video was released, people were ordered to keep it secret. Except for those people in the circle last night, no information would be leaked outside.
However, this was already a fatal blow to Gao Yufei.
After all, everyone in the circle already knew about his romantic affairs, which was enough to embarrass him.
When I arrived at the community where Ning Lan lived, the surroundings were as bustling as usual.
When the old neighbors saw the two of them, they thought they were a perfect match and started praising them again.
After Ning Xi dealt with the old neighbor's enthusiasm, she took Qin Yan upstairs and directly opened Ning Lan's door with the key. Then she found that Ning Lan was not the only one at home.
"Zhao Kaifeng, what are you doing here?" Ning Xi's face immediately darkened when she saw Zhao Kaifeng sitting on the sofa in the living room with his legs crossed like a big boss.
Zhao Kaifeng was originally acting like a big boss, but when he saw her and Qin Yan come in, he immediately changed his attitude and put his feet down, obviously a little afraid of her.
But he still said stubbornly: "This is my mother's house, I can't come to see her!"
Ning Xi looked at him suspiciously. She knew Zhao Kaifeng best. Why would he come to see his mother for no reason?
Ning Lan was standing aside. She was a little surprised that Ning Xi and the others came so early.
"Xixi, you are here so early? Xiao Qin, please sit down for a while, I'll pour you a glass of water!" She greeted Qin Yan warmly.
"Thank you, auntie. Don't worry." Qin Yan hurriedly stopped her, not wanting her to get involved.
When Zhao Kaifeng saw his mother welcoming Ning Xi and his wife so warmly, he hated her even more.
I just think this mother is cruel and is always nicer to outsiders than to her own son.
Ning Xi continued to stare at him and said, "Zhao Kaifeng, tell me the truth, why did you come to see my aunt?"
"What can I do? I've already told you that she is my mother. Let me see what's going on!" Zhao Kaifeng stood up and glared at her.
Qin Yan frowned and immediately stepped forward to stand in front of Ning Xi.
Ning Xi didn't expect him to do this, and she felt a little warm in her heart. However, there was no need for others to take action against Zhao Kaifeng, a coward.
Ning Xi turned her wrist and said, "Zhao Kaifeng, you'd better tell the truth!"
Every time she turned her wrist, it meant she was going to beat someone up. Zhao Kaifeng, who had been beaten countless times by Ning Xi since he was a child, had a conditioned reflex when he saw her like this.
I quickly took two steps back, "Ning Xi, are you being unreasonable? I said I came to see my mother, what's wrong! Mom, look at her!"
Zhao Kaifeng hurriedly shouted to Ning Lan.
Ning Lan didn't want them to have another awkward argument, so she quickly reached out to protect Zhao Kaifeng. With her brows drooping, she looked at Ning Xi and said in embarrassment, "Xixi, Kaifeng really came to see me. Don't be so mean to him."
"Auntie..." Ning Xi frowned.
Ning Lan was helpless and turned to Zhao Kaifeng and said, "You should go home first."
Zhao Kaifeng looked at her, then looked at Ning Xi with a cold face, snorted coldly, turned around and left.
"Bang!" The door slammed loudly. Ning Xi walked over to Ning Lan and looked at her worriedly: "Aunt, what on earth is he doing here? Is he asking you for money again?"
Ning Lan faced her questioning gaze, glanced at her, a trace of guilt flashed across her eyes, but she quickly concealed it and shook her head, saying, "No, don't worry, Fengfeng is not always ignorant.
He just came to see me!"
"Really?"
"Yes, really. By the way, Shuo Shuo should be in the room. I'll go call him out." Ning Lan quickly changed the subject.
After saying that, he was about to go find Shuo Shuo, but Qin Yan said first, "Aunt, I'll go find him."
As he said that, he turned and walked towards the bedroom. When he walked over, he saw Shuo Shuo standing at the bedroom door in her pajamas.
When Shuo Shuo saw him coming, he immediately opened his arms and rushed towards him.
Qin Yan immediately picked him up and felt his dependence on him. His brows, which had always been cold, softened.
"Aunt, you have to know that the money is for your retirement in the future, and you must never give it to them again!" Ning Xi was afraid that Ning Lan would do something bad and reminded her again.
"I know, don't worry!" Ning Lan responded repeatedly, like a child being lectured, feeling somewhat helpless and impatient. Finally, she changed the subject and said, "You and Xiao Qin should stay for lunch. I'll go buy some groceries first."
"No need, we're just here to pick up the kids, and we have things to do later." Ning Xi suppressed his worry and helplessness, and stopped her.
"What's the matter? Can't you go after lunch?" Ning Lan really wanted to keep them for lunch.
But Ning Xi and the others had arranged to visit in the morning, so she really couldn't eat. "Maybe next time. I really have something to do today."
"Okay, then pack up and go early, don't be late." Ning Lan no longer insisted.
After Qin Yan helped Shuo Shuo change his clothes, the three of them left Ning Lan's house.
When going downstairs, Ning Xi was still thinking about the reason why Zhao Kaifeng came here, and always felt that it was not a good thing.
Then, after getting in the car, Qin Yan realized something was wrong.
Seeing him get out of the car again and walk around it, Ning Xi asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
"The tire is punctured." Qin Yan kicked the left rear tire and frowned.
Upon hearing this, Ning Xi quickly got out of the car to check and saw a very obvious cut on the rear tire. It was definitely not an accident, but man-made!
Ning Xi immediately thought of that bastard Zhao Kaifeng!
