Half an hour later.
On the highway.
Si Ze was driving with a faint smile on his face.
Yan Mo, sitting in the passenger seat, felt very regretful and felt like he had slapped himself in the face.
"Mr. Si, I really don't know how to explain this to my family. Anyway, I won't take the money on WeChat and I'll return the red envelope to you. Will you take me back?" Looking at the city getting farther and farther away, Yan Mo made a final struggle to save his face.
"Three days, 100,000, you won't lose anything."
Si Ze's smile grew wider. He got into his car and wanted to get out, but there were no windows.
Yan Mo lowered his head and looked at the phone in his hand. It was already eight o'clock. Why didn't his furious mother call him?
It seemed like he heard Yan Mo calling him.
"Ring, ring, ring..." Yan Mo's cell phone rang.
"Mr. Si, please stop the car. My dad called to urge me to go back." The call from his father was a great help. Yan Mo couldn't suppress the smile on his face.
The car continued to speed up, and Si Ze said, "You answer it first."
"Um."
Needless to say, she must have been asked to go home.
Yanmo swiped and answered the call.
In order to let Si Ze know that she had no choice but to not go back to her hometown with him, she turned on the speakerphone.
Yan Ming's soft voice came from the other end of the phone:
"Momo, where are you now?"
"I'm ready to come back now." He raised his eyes, glanced at Si Ze, and answered with a clear meaning.
Yan Ming's voice seemed to become even quieter.
"Momo, don't come back yet. Your mother is really angry this time. I can't persuade her, but she's waiting for you in the lobby..."
Hearing this, Yan Mo reacted quickly, turned off the speakerphone, and gave Si Ze a dry laugh.
The person on the other end of the phone said that he didn't know the situation his daughter was facing, and continued:
"For the next few days, go to your grandfather's house to avoid the limelight and avoid getting caught in the crossfire."
Yan Mo: “…”
Si Ze raised his eyebrows and glanced at Yan Mo with interest.
Now let’s see what excuse this woman will make.
"Girl, did you hear that? Your mother asked your brother-in-law for Qi Xuan's phone number." After not hearing his daughter's answer for a long time, Yan Mo seemed to think that his daughter did not know the seriousness of the matter, so he emphasized it again.
He opened his mouth, Si Ze was sitting next to him, and Yan Mo didn't know how to answer his old father.
These two old men are not her assistants, but Si Ze's.
Yan Mo thought that it was impossible to go home, her mother must not have given up on Qi Xuan.
On the way to his grandfather's house, Yan Mo turned his head and looked out the car window.
There were no vehicles on the dark road, and there were endless mountains all around.
There is no taxi available in this place.
"Okay, Dad, I understand." Yan Mo withdrew his gaze and ended the call.
In front of Si Ze, she opened WeChat and received the 100,000 yuan he transferred to her.
The die is cast.
Yan Mo decided that when she came to offer sacrifices to her ancestors, she would explain the situation. The ancestors of the Si family probably wouldn't blame her!
Besides, Sixiang Village is not far from Changmen Village. In case of uncontrollable situations, it will be convenient to go to my grandfather's house in Changmen Village. Yan Mo comforted himself.
Afterwards, Yan Mo agreed frankly.
"Mr. Si, I can promise you that I will go back with you. But there are some things I need to make clear." Yan Mo's expression was very serious.
She knew that there would definitely be a period of adjustment when the two of them first started working together.
Don’t employees and companies also have a probation period? Some issues can be understood, but some matters of principle must be made clear.
Si Ze said calmly, "You say."
"I apologize for being late this morning. There won't be a next time." Yan Mo apologized sincerely, first correcting his attitude, and then changed his tone, suddenly becoming more serious: "But, Mr. Si's behavior, I cannot accept..."
"I'll change, and you should change too." Si Ze said just a few simple words, but his attitude was very positive.
Yan Mo opened her mouth, but she couldn't say the many words she had prepared facing Si Ze like this.
She shrank back into her seat like a deflated balloon, and adjusted to a comfortable sitting position.
"Call your grandpa!" Si Ze reminded Yan Mo because he was worried that Yan Mo would fall asleep.
After being reminded by Si Ze, Yan Mo remembered that he had not called his grandfather to make a confession.
Yan Mo opened his eyes, quickly took out his cell phone and called his grandfather.
There was a beeping sound from the phone.
Busy?
Five minutes later, Yan Mo called again.
Still the same.
Yan Mo glanced at the time. It was almost nine o'clock. Who was he calling so late and why was it taking so long?
In desperation, Yan Mo found his grandma's number.
Just as she was about to dial, her grandfather called.
Before Yan Mo could speak, her grandfather finished what she was about to say.
"Momo! You don't have to say anything. Grandpa knows everything. Yue'er just called me and told me you'll be staying with me for three days. Don't worry! I'll take care of your mom."
It was Mr. Si who called just now, right?
These two old men must have colluded with each other for a long time. Yan Mo couldn't help but wonder if her grandfather was involved in this matter.
"Momo, you've grown up recently. The temperature in the countryside is much lower than in the city. Did you bring any clothes?" Grandma's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Also, remember to eat on time, otherwise you'll have a stomachache again."
Yan Mo raised his left hand and placed it on his chest.
She has been diagnosed with a cold stomach since high school, so she has to have her three meals on time, otherwise, she will suffer from bloating, stomach pain and other reactions.
Just like now, my stomach aches slightly.
"Okay, I will take good care of myself." Yan Mo endured the discomfort and agreed with a smile.
Yan Mo's nose felt sore. No matter when or where she was, whenever she called her grandma, her grandma would always remind her.
Grandma said gently, "Well, Momo is the best. Is Si Ze with you? I want to talk to him."
"Grandma, he's driving. It's not convenient." Yan Mo didn't want his grandma to talk to Si Ze, so he refused.
"Put the phone next to my ear." Although the volume of the phone was not loud, Si Ze, who was driving, could still hear clearly what Grandma Yan Mo said in the closed space inside the car.
Yan Mo pointed at the phone and shook his head at Si Ze, signaling him not to speak.
Si Ze looked ahead and insisted:
"obedient."
"Momo, hurry up." Grandma on the phone was also urging.
I could only do as Si Ze told me. I raised the phone and held it close to his ear.
She couldn't hear what her grandmother said to Si Ze, she only heard him keep responding: "...Okay...I understand..."
It took six or seven minutes before he finished speaking.
After they hung up the phone, Yan Mo withdrew his hand, shook his numb arm, turned his back to Si Ze, and slumped back into his chair.
"There's food in the back seat, Miss Yan, would you like to eat something?" After hearing what her grandmother said, Si Ze realized that this woman had a bad stomach and couldn't help being hungry.
Thinking back, she barely ate anything at the dinner table.
Asked worriedly.
"No, I'll take a nap. Call me when you get there." Yan Mo refused.
At this moment, Yan Mo just wanted to sleep to relieve the pain.
"Are you sure you don't want to eat something? You didn't eat anything tonight."
