Chapter 162 I didn’t expect your son to be so big already!
Chenchen opened his eyes drowsily, rubbed his sleepy eyes with his little hands, and said in a lazy voice:
"Sister Yan, are we there yet?"
"arrive."
She helped Chenchen tidy up his messy hair, then took his little hand and took him off the plane.
The airport was bustling with people coming and going, and the sounds of broadcasts and footsteps intertwined together, making it seem particularly lively.
Mu Nanyan took Chenchen through the crowd and walked straight to the parking lot. They left in a hurry yesterday and the car was still parked in the airport parking lot, so they had to pick it up first.
After getting in the car, Mu Nanyan fastened her seat belt and turned to look at Chenchen who was sitting in the child seat in the back seat.
Seeing him fasten his seat belt skillfully, she smiled and asked:
"Chenchen, what do you want to eat?"
Chenchen blinked and answered without hesitation:
“I want to eat hot pot!”
"Okay, let's go eat hot pot today."
Mu Nanyan responded with a smile, then started the car. While driving, she used her mobile phone to search for a hot pot restaurant with a good reputation and navigated directly there.
When they arrived at the hot pot restaurant, it was already past two in the afternoon. Logically, there should be few people in the restaurant at this time, but Mu Nanyan found that the restaurant was still very lively, with the staff busy in and out and customers coming in one after another.
She thought to herself: "It seems that this restaurant is really delicious, otherwise why would there be so many people."
Mu Nanyan held Chenchen's hand and walked into the store. Soon, a clerk came up and asked enthusiastically:
"Hello, how many people are there?"
"Two."
"Okay, then follow me."
The clerk was an older sister with a friendly smile and a warm tone. She took Mu Nanyan and Chenchen to a quiet corner and explained:
"You guys sit here. It's not convenient for you to bring your kids. It's too crowded over there."
Chenchen usually doesn't like sitting with others, so this corner is very suitable for him. He raised his head and said politely to the clerk:
"Thank you, Auntie."
The clerk's eyes fell on Chenchen, and seeing his delicate little face, he couldn't help but smile and praise:
"The kid is so sweet and handsome, like a child star!"
Mu Nanyan smiled and didn't respond. She was used to it. Basically, she would encounter this situation every time she took Chenchen out to eat.
She took the menu and started to order. The waiter stood by and enthusiastically introduced the restaurant's signature dishes:
"Do you want a shabu-shabu hotpot or a red soup base? Our tripe and beef are pretty good, you can try them."
"Let's have a shabu-shabu hotpot."
Mu Nanyan said as she checked off the ingredients on the menu. She ordered Chenchen's favorite beef balls and shrimp balls, along with some vegetables and mushrooms. After ordering, she handed the menu to the waiter:
"That's all, thank you."
The waiter took the menu and said with a smile:
"Okay, wait a moment, the pot base and vegetables will be here soon."
After the clerk left, Chenchen sat on the chair, his little face full of anticipation:
"Sister Yan, I'm so hungry. When can I eat?"
Mu Nanyan smiled and touched his head:
"It will be quick. Once the base of the pot comes up, we can rinse the food and eat it."
Chenchen nodded and sat obediently on the chair, supporting his chin with his little hands, staring at the empty pot on the table with sparkling eyes, as if he could already smell the aroma of the hot pot.
Mu Nanyan couldn't help but find it a little funny when she saw Chenchen's expectant look.
The two of them were sitting on chairs waiting for their food in a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere. At this moment, a beautifully dressed woman walked towards them.
Mu Nanyan initially thought that she wanted to sit in the seat next to her, so she even moved her stool a little, fearing that she wouldn't be able to pass.
Who knew that the woman would walk straight to Mu Nanyan and tentatively call out:
"Mu Nanyan?"
Hearing someone calling her name, Mu Nanyan raised her head and looked at the woman.
The other person was wearing a pair of sunglasses. Mu Nanyan didn't recognize who she was for a moment. She hesitated for a moment before asking:
"Who are you?"
The woman smiled and took off her sunglasses, revealing a face with delicate makeup:
"You don't recognize me? I'm Xu Xuanjiao."
"Xu Xuanjiao?"
When Mu Nanyan heard the name, she felt familiar, but she couldn't remember who it was. In her impression, she seemed to have never seen this face before.
Seeing that she was still confused, Xu Xuanjiao reminded her:
"You really don't remember me? We were in the same class in college, and my dormitory was right next to yours."
After hearing what she said, Mu Nanyan vaguely remembered that there was indeed such a person in the university.
But the Xu Xuanjiao in her memory was not ugly, but had a very common face. It could not be said that she looked similar to the face in front of her, but had nothing to do with it.
However, since the other party could call out her name, Mu Nanyan did not doubt her identity and smiled awkwardly:
"It's you. I'm sorry, it's been so long since we've met that I didn't recognize you."
"It's okay. I've definitely changed a lot, but you're still as beautiful as ever."
Xu Xuanjiao smiled and waved her hand, with a hint of pride in her tone.
Mu Nanyan smiled but didn't respond. Xu Xuanjiao's eyes immediately fell on Chenchen, with a surprised expression on her face.
"Is this your son?"
"Yes, this is my son, Chenchen."
Mu Nanyan patted Chenchen's shoulder gently.
"Chenchen, call someone quickly."
Chenchen raised his head and said obediently:
"Hello, beautiful auntie."
Xu Xuanjiao smiled even brighter after hearing this:
"I didn't expect your son to be this big already! Did you and Su Muyang get married right after graduation?"
When Mu Nanyan heard this, she was stunned. When she was in college, her relationship with Su Muyang was almost known to everyone, but almost no one knew about their breakup except Tang Yutong.
After all, everyone was busy with internships and job hunting at that time, and they gradually lost contact after graduation. It was not surprising that Chenchen was misunderstood as Su Muyang's child.
Mu Nanyan explained awkwardly:
"No, Su Muyang and I broke up later..."
She paused and didn't continue. Xu Xuanjiao was shocked:
"You two were so good at first, why did you break up so suddenly?"
She looked at Chenchen again and asked doubtfully:
"Your son looks about four or five years old, right? Did you get married right after graduating from college?"
Mu Nanyan didn't want to talk more, and just said "hmm" lightly as a response.
Just then, a call came from the door:
"Xuan Jiao, let's go!"
I saw a few boys standing at the door, obviously they were about to leave after dinner and were waiting for Xu Xuanjiao. Xu Xuanjiao said quickly:
"I have something else to do, so I'll leave first. Let's talk another day! Let's contact each other by phone."
As she spoke, she pointed to her cell phone and then hurried away.
Mu Nanyan looked at Xu Xuanjiao's departing back, feeling a little complicated.
Chenchen pulled Mu Nanyan's hand and asked in a low voice:
"Sister Yan, who is that auntie?"
Mu Nanyan smiled and touched his head:
"It's Mommy's former classmate. I haven't seen him for a long time."
Chenchen nodded, not quite understanding, then raised his little face and asked curiously:
"Why did she think I was Uncle Su Xiaonuan's son? Have you ever been together before?"
