Chapter 19 Chapter 19 Xiao Ye, it must be the big city...
"Buzz buzz buzz!" The sound of the cell phone vibrating broke the ambiguous atmosphere, and Lou Ye put away his strange mood.
Ming Le was listening attentively nearby, but he didn't hear who was calling. He saw that Lou Ye's expression was becoming more and more serious, and a little anxious.
After Lou Ye ended the call, Ming Le asked curiously, "What happened?"
He rarely saw Lou Ye lose his composure.
"Something happened at home, so I have to go back today." Lou Ye said, without stopping his hands, and quickly made the few dishes that Ming Le ordered today.
"Ah, what's up? Why so urgent?" Ming Le felt a little disappointed. Lou Ye was usually very busy filming, and he was in school, so even if he wanted to find him, he would have to be free on the weekends.
But he had an urgent matter, and as his financial backer, he couldn't be too inhumane.
"Sorry, next time you come to me, I'll cook whatever you want." Seeing that Mingle was a greedy person, Lou Ye said soothingly, "I'll bring you some specialties from our hometown when I come back."
Mingle felt relieved after hearing this. He didn't give him a perfunctory response. He pursed his lips and said, "Okay."
Very well behaved.
Lou Ye called his assistant to book the earliest possible ticket, and then told Ming Le: "Don't go back alone after dinner. Call the driver at home and ask him to pick you up."
Mingle watched him place the dishes on the dining table. Braised pork, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and steamed fish were all the dishes he had just ordered, but Mingle had no appetite at all.
He often eats alone at home, and only comes to Lou Ye because he doesn't like it.
He didn't start eating, but followed Lou Ye from the restaurant to the kitchen like a little tail, watching him pack his things with his suitcase, and soon came out of the room, ready to leave.
"Is it that urgent?" Mingle asked nervously, twisting his fingers. "There are so many dishes, I can't finish them all by myself."
The little face was wrinkled pitifully, and Lou Ye moved his lips: "Is it okay if I ask Geng Zhao to come over and accompany you?"
Ming Le hesitated. He still preferred to be with Lou Ye, but Geng Zhao was also okay. He was fun.
"All right."
Quite obedient.
Lou Ye reached out and stroked his furry black head.
Mingle let him touch her twice, then pushed his hand away, her hair almost messed up.
"Hurry up, hurry up, I will close the door for you when I go home."
Lou Ye dragged the suitcase: "Yeah."
Mingle watched him open the door and go out, and his tall figure entered the elevator.
He went into the house by himself.
Geng Zhao arrived in less than half an hour. He opened the door and saw the young man in the restaurant before changing his shoes.
She was wearing a pink plush sweatshirt, her fluffy and slightly messy hair was holding a pair of chopsticks and eating seriously.
"Young Master Ming." Geng Zhao called out.
Seeing someone coming, Mingle stood up from his chair and asked, "Have you eaten?"
Geng Zhao thought Lou Ye had something urgent to do and came in a hurry, so he had no time to eat.
"No, Master Ming, Brother Lou asked me to come over and keep you company."
Geng Zhao looked around. Were their relationships developing so quickly? He had never seen them living together before!
He saw Snowball lying on the balcony with his eyes closed and sleeping soundly, and he even brought the dog with him?
The family of three is quite complete.
"That's great. Lou Ye just cooked some food, but it's a little cold. Can you heat it up? Let's eat together." Ming Le pointed to the food on the table, feeling a little embarrassed.
Geng Zhao is not a young master who has never done housework, so these basic life skills are very easy for him.
He quickly heated up the dishes and brought them to the table. Ming Le tasted them and found that Lou Ye's cooking skills were unexpectedly good. He found the food more appetizing than the food at home.
Although it had been reheated once, Mingle didn't complain and drank two bowls of rice out of courtesy.
He forgot Lou Ye's instructions not to eat too much braised pork, and no one cared anyway.
"Master Ming, please sit down and rest. I'll wash the dishes." Geng Zhao filled the sink with water.
The last time he came here, there was nothing. In order to serve Young Master Ming well, his brother Lou filled the kitchen with new things.
Although Young Master Ming looks small, he can eat a lot.
Mingle was wandering around in the living room. His stomach was too full to sit down, so he went to feed Xueqiu some dog food.
"Geng Zhao, let me help you." Ming Le felt a little embarrassed that he had asked someone else to wash the dishes after he had just heated up the dishes.
Mingle walked into the kitchen, lifted up his sleeves, revealing a piece of snow-white wrist, slender fingers, and round nails with a faint pink.
These were definitely not hands that could work. Geng Zhao was flattered and quickly refused. He was also afraid that if he really asked Ming Le to help, all the bowls would fall to the ground.
"No, no, I'm very quick, Master Ming, you should go play in the living room."
Ming Le is not stupid. He thinks that this person is just like Lou Ye, and both of them despise him for not being able to do things.
He didn't insist, but went to the living room, found his phone, and called the driver. Then he packed his schoolbag and tied the leash to Snowball.
Geng Zhao cleaned up the place, and the Ming family's driver arrived. The three of them and the dog went out.
"Let's send Brother Geng Zhao home first and then we'll go back to the Ming residence." Ming Le instructed the driver and put Snowball in the car.
"Okay, young master."
"Ah, actually, that's not necessary. It's very convenient for me to go back by subway, and there's no need to get stuck in traffic." Geng Zhao refused nervously.
Young Master Ming is the financial backer of his brother Lou, and Brother Lou has to serve him well. How could he dare to let this man compromise with him?
Moreover, even the Ming family's driver drives a luxury car worth millions, which he has never ridden in. When he really sat in one, he felt a sense of unreality and dizziness.
Geng Zhao's residence was not far from Lou Ye's home, otherwise he wouldn't have come so quickly just now.
When they arrived at the destination, Geng Zhao got off the car.
"Brother Geng Zhao, bye. I'll play games with you on my phone next time." Ming Le rolled down the car window, revealing a fair little face with a dazzling smile.
Geng Zhao almost stuttered: "Okay, okay, bye."
He thinks Young Master Ming is really cute!
No wonder Brother Lou is willing to serve him and has no temper in front of him.
He is willing to serve too!
…
Lou Ye bought a high-speed rail ticket. Their hometown is in the county town, which has no airport.
It took him more than six hours to get home.
The Lou family owns an old duplex house that they built themselves. It has a large yard and a large iron gate on the first floor. The flower beds are planted with various hydrangeas and roses by Lou's mother.
It was already dark, and a yellowish light shone through the building. Lou Ye pushed open the iron door, and the suitcase slid across the smooth concrete floor, making a sound of wheels.
Before he entered the house, someone ran out. Lou Xi, wearing a white suspender nightgown and a pair of slippers, ran out.
“Brother!”
She was slender and tall, with a face very similar to Lou Ye's. Lou Ye was afraid that she would jump into his arms, so he quickly moved away from her.
"What are you so impatient about?"
Lou Xi took the suitcase for him. Because her brother had been particularly generous recently, her attitude became extremely attentive.
"Oh, I haven't seen you for a long time. When I heard someone open the door, I guessed it was you, so I went downstairs to greet you."
She talked a lot, but Lou Ye was too lazy to answer her.
"How's Mom?"
"I fainted from a vertigo attack. I was really scared. Dad closed the tailor shop early today. But Mom has already returned from the hospital after getting some medicine. The doctor didn't require me to be hospitalized."
Lou Ye: “Yeah.”
The two of them entered the house. At this time, Lou Chengwen actually brought out a few dishes from the kitchen and stewed some soup.
I guess he was calculating the time until his son would come home.
"Xiao Xi, go upstairs and call your mother to eat. She should be feeling better now after taking some medicine."
"Dad, Mom's condition isn't serious, isn't it? She usually controls it well, right?" Lou Ye helped get dishes and chopsticks from the kitchen. His mother has always had vertigo, and she usually gets massages and acupuncture, and she hasn't had an attack for a long time.
Lou Chengwen has a gentle personality and is not a talkative person. He stammered, thinking about what to say appropriately.
"It's that gossipy Zou Cuilan who provoked me. If I hadn't fainted from anger, I would have taught her a lesson today." Lin Rong said angrily as she was helped down from upstairs by her daughter.
She has fair skin and a slightly round face. She was wearing a yellow dress. Even at her retired age, her figure has not changed. It can be seen that she was also very beautiful when she was young.
Wasn't it just that Zou Cuilan's son had passed the exam for a government job in their county, and he still had to follow his boss to sweep the streets? Not only did he look down on her openly and covertly, but he also mocked her son Xiaoye. She could never tolerate his temper.
Fortunately, the woman still had a conscience. Seeing her faint, she quickly came over to help her.
Lou Ye glanced at the bruise on his mother's forehead. It wasn't serious, just a small purple patch. "...Mom, next time Aunt Zou says something, just pretend you didn't hear it."
Lin Rong sat down, still feeling a pang of frustration. "She mentioned earlier that she wanted to introduce her daughter to our Xiao Ye. That girl is very pretty and has a good personality, but considering her mother's situation, I'll never agree."
Lou Ye: ...
Seeing that his wife was extremely angry, Lou Chengwen served her soup and vegetables in a flattering manner: "Let's not involve the children in adult matters."
As long as the children are happy, they can do whatever they want.
Lin Rong glared at her husband unhappily.
Lou Chengwen smiled and said, "We've got new fabrics in the store these days. I'll make you two sets of the styles you wanted."
Lin Rong liked her husband's personality. He never got angry and was always kind to everyone. Since Xiao Ye was in jail because of his incident, she was not afraid of the hard work of raising their two children until he was released.
If this person treated him badly, just because he got into trouble, I would have taken care of the child and never taken care of him.
The family had dinner together, and seeing that his mother was in good spirits, Lou Ye felt relieved.
"Mom, I'll stay home for a few days to accompany you and Dad, and then I'll leave." My new drama is coming out, and I'm busy promoting it, so I might not have time.
"Okay, Xiaoye, whatever you want to eat, Dad will cook for you in different ways these days, so Dad will close the tailor shop early." Lou Chengwen asked lovingly with a smile on his face.
Lin Rong opened her mouth and wanted her son to go home and find a job. What was so good about being an actor?
His son graduated from a prestigious university and is much better than Zou Cuifen's son.
Lou Xi quickly grabbed a chicken wing and stuffed it into her mother's mouth: "Mom, you don't know, but my brother is filming a drama directed by a famous director this time, and he's the second male lead. It's amazing."
"It's a costume martial arts drama, just holding the sword and swiping it! So cool!" Lou Xi said while gesturing with chopsticks.
"You little bitch, you got oil everywhere." Lin Rong slapped her daughter's hand away.
After retirement, her usual entertainment is planting flowers and grass, and dancing square dance. She has never paid attention to any TV dramas, so how would she know?
"You don't know, my brother looks so handsome in the show. He will definitely gain a lot of fans after the TV series is broadcast!" Lou Xi said excitedly.
Lou Ye: "Eat more and talk less."
Lou Xi stuck out his tongue with a smile. His brother was so boring.
After dinner, Lou's father took charge of the cleanup and asked Lou Ye to go upstairs to wash up and rest.
…
The next morning, Lou Ye got up early and went out for a run.
When he came back from running, sweating profusely, his mother was carrying a vegetable basket. She must have just come back from the vegetable market and was chatting with someone at the door.
He could have gone into the house, but he insisted on standing at the door.
Lou Ye wiped the sweat from his forehead and walked over to greet her: "Aunt Wang."
Aunt Wang is a bit plump, and her eyes lit up when she saw Lou Ye: "Xiao Ye, I was just talking about you with your mother."
She patted Lou Ye's arm and said, "You're a good boy."
Lin Rong's smile was somewhat smug: "Sister Wang, didn't you say you would introduce a girlfriend to Xiao Ye? If there's a suitable one, hurry up and let the young people meet while Xiao Ye is at home."
"You won't say, it's true. Xiaoye is so handsome, the girls like him, he's very popular."
Lou Ye coughed and said, "Mom, Aunt Wang, it's really not necessary. It's okay. I'll go in first."
He has no desire to fall in love.
And... the contract he signed with Ming Le clearly stated that he could not have a romantic relationship during the contract period.
Thinking of the other party's domineering attitude and the love contract that seemed like something only made between lovers, Lou Ye's lips curled up and his indifferent eyes softened.
He didn't notice the two people's expressions on his face until he took the basket of vegetables from Lin Rong's hand and went into the house, and the tall figure disappeared.
Aunt Wang patted Lin Rong's palm affectionately and said, "Arong, I think you should stop talking about introducing a girlfriend."
Lin Rong: “?”
Aunt Wang said confidently, "Xiao Ye, you must have been fascinated by the beautiful girls in the big city!"
