Chapter 23 Yu Zhiwan discovered something was wrong
When Yu Xiangxiang heard that they were getting married next month, her face turned even redder.
Yu Xiuqi noticed something was wrong and stood up. "Dad, Mom, why didn't you give away the gifts you brought? Instead, you brought them back?"
Yu Changde sighed helplessly: "It's a bad coincidence today. Xie Yunzhou brought his girlfriend back to the old house, so Mr. and Mrs. Xie are not convenient to see us."
Tao Shuqin was still feeling uneasy: "Changde, I still feel that what the servant said about the young mistress of the Xie family is not right."
Yu Changde: "You don't have to think too much, let alone scare yourself. Xie Jingmo is already engaged. One is to that damn girl Yu Zhiwan, and the other is Xiangxiang, a precious girl. Who do you think Xie Jingmo would want to fulfill his engagement with? He will definitely choose Xiangxiang!"
Yu Xiuqi nodded and analyzed, "Dad is right. Xiangxiang and Yu Zhiwan, one was raised in wealth, the other grew up in poverty. Xie Jingmo will definitely choose Xiangxiang. How could he possibly be interested in Yu Zhiwan?"
Yu Xiangxiang bit her lip and tangled her hands together shyly: "But why do I feel that Jing Mo is very cold to me..."
She still doesn't have that man's cell phone number or WeChat account.
Can't even say a word.
Yu Shaoze comforted her, "Silly Xiangxiang, he's indifferent to every woman. He just has that kind of aloof personality! And I have a feeling that he keeps his distance from other women because of his engagement with you!"
"So, it's the same if you wait until you get married to cultivate your relationship!"
Yu Changde smiled and said, "Yes, your second brother is right. Tomorrow, your mother and I will go to the Xie family again and finalize your marriage!"
Tao Shuqin frowned, still feeling uneasy...
…
The old house of the Xie family.
Xie Yunzhou sat aside, watching his brother peeling oranges for Yu Zhiwan and whispering to her. If his grandparents hadn't called him, he wouldn't have been able to take his eyes off Yu Zhiwan.
Tsk tsk.
How can this be considered as being cold and distant in front of other women, as if he doesn't want to be approached by strangers?
He will get angry with anyone who says his brother is not interested in women!
Xie Yuntang was also sitting next to him. He kicked Xie Yunzhou and ordered him very smoothly: "Stop looking around and peel an apple for me."
Xie Yunzhou immediately kicked back: "Don't think that I will give in to you just because I am your brother."
Xie Yuntang: "??? Are you planning a rebellion?"
The old lady frowned and said, "Yunzhou, don't be disrespectful. Yuntang is your sister."
Xie Yunzhou was frustrated: "..."
Xie Yuntang laughed mercilessly: "Hahahaha!"
Although the two of them were fighting and quarreling, Yu Zhiwan could see that the relationship between the siblings was very good, and this was how they got along.
Yu Zhiwan was sighing with emotion when she suddenly heard Xie Yuntang reveal a big secret about Xie Yunzhou—
Xie Yunzhou is heartbroken!
Or the one who was dumped!
Dumped by my girlfriend!
Dumped it two months ago!
Xie Yunzhou was speechless, looking at Xie Yuntang angrily and boldly: "Little aunt, it's been two months since this happened. Can you please stop bringing it up and just be quiet for a while?"
Xie Yuntang snorted, "What's wrong with two months? Even if it's been two years, I can still dig this up and flog you again and again!"
"Tsk tsk, that girl is really far-sighted. She knew you were unreliable and dumped you as soon as possible."
Xie Yunzhou: "...Is she my biological sister?"
"Why am I unreliable?"
"Xie Xiaotang! Just for what you said, if you call me brother, I promise not to beat you up!"
Xie Yuntang was not afraid at all. He turned around and shouted, "Grandpa and grandma, look at him!"
The old lady glared at him.
The old man's cane was ready to move.
Xie Yunzhou immediately raised his hands in surrender: "Alright, alright, alright. I'm a good man and I don't want to fight with a good woman. Let's temporarily cease fighting today!"
As he said this, he secretly glared at Xie Yuntang: Just go ahead, Xie Xiaotang.
Xie Yuntang laughed so hard that his stomach hurt. He grabbed Yu Zhiwan's hand and said, "Sister-in-law, see? Xie Xiaozhou is at the bottom of our family's food chain. You can always use him for anything you need from now on."
Xie Jingmo glanced at her sideways and said lazily, "Does your sister-in-law need to order him around?"
Xie Yuntang slapped his forehead and understood instantly: "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, I was wrong just now. If you have anything in the future, just order my brother around!"
Yu Zhiwan: “…”
She turned to look at Xie Jingmo.
Xie Jingmo handed her the peeled orange, with a smile on his face, his voice sexy and seductive: "Did you hear that, Madam Xie? Remember to use me if you need anything."
The man's fingers were long, clean, with distinct joints, and were as beautiful as works of art. Even the oranges he peeled were clean.
Yu Zhiwan felt as if her heart was suddenly gently stroked by a feather, and ripples appeared in the lake of her heart. The afterglow spread out in circles, trembling and soft.
She stared at the man for several seconds before taking the orange from his palm and whispered:
"I see. I need you for something right now. You're kind of blocking my view and affecting my ability to see my grandparents. Could you please stay away from me?"
Xie Jingmo: “???”
Seeing him stunned, Yu Zhiwan curled up the corners of her lips, and her beautiful eyes flashed with a cunning and clever light: "I was just teasing you."
Xie Jingmo raised his eyebrows in surprise, as if he couldn't believe it. After a few seconds, his Adam's apple rolled slightly, and he laughed indulgently and dotingly.
A good wife suddenly turned bad.
But it's pretty good, it could be a little worse.
I'm becoming more and more familiar with him.
He liked her bright, lively, cunning and smart look.
Yu Zhiwan and Xie Jingmo were invited by their grandparents to have dinner together. Their second uncle and second aunt, their aunt and uncle, Xie Yuntang and Xie Yunzhou, and the whole family were there, and the atmosphere at the table was very harmonious.
After dinner, Yu Zhiwan chatted with the old man for a while, and then went to the room where Xie Jingmo used to live.
The room is on the second floor, where Xie Jingmo lived before going to college.
Yu Zhiwan took a tour around with interest.
The room was cleaned very well and the furnishings were untouched. For example, on the bookshelf, there were some cool mechanical models, as well as some awards and certificates.
but……
Yu Zhiwan asked in confusion, "There's nothing pink in this room."
Xie Jingmo: “?”
pink?
Yu Zhiwan blinked. "I feel like you like pink things very much. For example, your WeChat profile picture and your apron are both pink bunnies."
Xie Jingmo raised his eyebrows: "You are talking about this."
He leaned lazily against the desk, tilted his head slightly, and raised the corners of his lips: "I don't like pink, I just like that bunny."
Hearing him say this, Yu Zhiwan couldn't help but become more curious.
Who drew that pink and tender little rabbit?
Make him like it so much?
Yu Zhiwan found that her mood was changing too quickly. Yesterday, she wasn't curious about this little rabbit, but today, she was becoming more and more curious...
There was a photo album on the desk. Yu Zhiwan took it and took a look. It turned out to be a photo of Xie Jingmo when he was a child.
He was only two or three years old in the photo, delicate and cute, like a little dumpling carved out of jade. He was really good-looking since he was young.
There is also a man and a woman in the photo. Judging from their facial features, they are somewhat similar to Xie Jingmo.
This... is Xie Jingmo's parents?
Yu Zhiwan wanted to ask him, but was afraid of making him sad.
After all, his parents died young, which must have been very sad for him.
Finally, Xie Jingmo took the initiative to explain to her. He seemed to have let it go long ago. His tone was calm and there was no particular sadness in his voice. "The people in the photo are my parents."
Yu Zhiwan glanced at him and awkwardly changed the subject: "...You were quite pretty when you were a child."
Hearing this, the man raised his peach blossom eyes and said lazily: "Is it not beautiful now?"
Yu Zhiwan: “…”
He sighed slowly and blamed himself seriously: "It's my fault. It's my fault that I didn't grow up to meet Madam's aesthetic standards."
Yu Zhiwan: "...No, you look really good now, in my opinion."
The moment the words fell, a sexy chuckle escaped from the man's throat. The chuckle was low and hoarse, revealing a casual joy, and sounded extremely sexy.
"So I'm on Wanwan's aesthetic level."
"Well, this is the first time Wanwan has praised me. I have to take a little notebook to write it down."
Yu Zhiwan: “???”
Why is he like this?
Yu Zhiwan didn't want to pay attention to him anymore and continued to flip through a few pages of the photo album. She felt that his family atmosphere was quite good.
Because in these photos, his father either hugged her mother's waist or put his arm around her mother's shoulders, and his love was so obvious that even little Xie Jingmo didn't care.
Yu Zhiwan couldn't help but smile.
However, after flipping through a few more pictures, Yu Zhiwan discovered something was wrong.
In the photo, Xie Jingmo's father's eyes are full of love, but Xie Jingmo's mother has a very cold expression, and her body subconsciously moves away from Xie Jingmo's father, as if she is disgusted and does not want to have physical contact.
Not just one, but almost all the photos are so cold.
Yu Zhiwan frowned slightly.
Last night, Xie Jingmo washed her underwear and said that his parents did the same thing, and all of his mother's clothes were washed by his father.
She thought at the time that his parents were very loving.
But looking at these photos now, it seems... they are not that loving.
Yu Zhiwan suddenly thought of the death of Xie Jingmo's parents, which was something the Xie family didn't want to mention...
What is going on?
