Qiu Qiu knew nothing about it. Because he felt a little cold after walking outside, he went back to his room to change clothes.
Mingsi and I looked at each other, and Mingsi frowned in confusion: "Where's your uncle? We agreed to celebrate Qiu Qiu's birthday together."
I made several calls, but Mingyuan didn't answer, and I didn't know what was going on.
I helplessly spread my hands to Mingsi: "No one answered."
"Mingyuan! He really failed at the crucial moment!" Mingsi cursed angrily, "What a great opportunity tonight! But he played the disappearing trick!"
I couldn't help but wonder in my heart: Could it be that he was scared at the last minute?
He said before that he had prepared a gift for Qiu Qiu, but now he is hiding it. I seriously suspect that he chose to escape because he was afraid of being rejected by Qiu Qiu.
I sighed helplessly. No one else could express his feelings on his behalf in this kind of situation. If he ran away, I could only let it go. It was a pity that I had created such a good atmosphere in vain!
When Mingsi and I were just hating Mingyuan for being such a hopeless case, Qiu Qiu came out of her room, changed her clothes, and said to me coquettishly, "Shanshan, I'm so hungry. Can we go eat something first?"
I originally thought that since Mingyuan was here, I could ask the restaurant staff to deliver the food over.
But in this situation, it’s better to leave the house to avoid making people angry.
I was too lazy to care about Mingyuan anymore, so I took Mingsi and Qiu Qiu to the buffet restaurant.
Halfway through the journey, Qiu Qiu's cell phone suddenly rang.
She glanced at her phone screen and answered the call suspiciously: "Hello?"
Not knowing what the other party said on the phone, Qiu Qiu's face showed a bit of shyness and she responded softly.
After she hung up, Mingsi and I were both curious. I asked, "Who called you?"
Qiu Qiu lowered his eyes embarrassedly: "It's Uncle Mingyuan. He asked me to go find him. I may not be able to go to the restaurant with you for dinner."
Mingsi and I looked at each other and smiled. It turned out that Mingyuan did not run away. He just wanted to have some private space with Qiu Qiu.
Mingsi smiled and urged: "Then go quickly!"
Qiu Qiu smiled innocently, turned around and trotted away. It was obvious that she was also looking forward to meeting Mingyuan alone.
Mingsi and I looked at her back. Mingsi chuckled and asked me, "Do you think your uncle can successfully confess his love this time?"
"That should be about the same." I thought thoughtfully, "I guess after tonight I'll have to call Qiu Qiu my aunt."
Mingsi was amused by what I said, patted me and changed the subject: "Let's go eat!"
Mingsi and I walked into the restaurant arm in arm. We were just about to find a place to sit down when we glanced around and unexpectedly saw Huo Hui.
I frowned slightly, as I didn't have a good impression of Huo Hui.
Her appearance here made me feel that it was arranged in advance.
She hasn't returned to South City yet?
I was going to ignore it, but Huo Hui had already seen me.
She walked to the side and said something to a middle-aged man. The middle-aged man turned his head to look at Mingsi and me, and the two of them walked straight towards us with purpose.
"Mingsi, long time no see! You're still so young, unlike me, who's getting older."
The middle-aged man stopped in front of us and took the initiative to greet Mingsi.
But Mingsi was stunned and looked at him with suspicion.
Mingsi looked at him over and over again, as if suddenly awakened: "So it's Director Yan. After so many years, I almost didn't recognize you."
