Caleb Jin lowered his eyes, his eyes darkened for a moment, his hands moving non-stop, "Don't be angry, Manman, we won't see her anymore."
"Of course not! If you invite me to something like this again in the future, I won't go. It's a waste of my meal money." Xu Manman felt aggrieved when she thought about the fact that she had invited that person to dinner today.
Caleb Jin was somewhat helpless. The host was about to have her menstrual period, and the influence of hormones made her a little irritable. And this incident happened again today. Xu Jianguo, the only good person, didn't know what went wrong, which made her very angry.
But it didn't bother her. It's best to vent your anger. Holding it in will only hurt yourself. Many physical illnesses in women are caused by holding back anger for a long time.
As expected of a science and engineering school, MIT’s work efficiency is quite high. Before dinner, Xu Manman received a call from her younger brother.
Xu Jianguo's tone was very surprised, "Sister! You are back to New York???"
"Oh, Mr. Xu Jianguo knows I'm in New York. I'm quite honored."
Xu Jianguo's strong desire to survive made him immediately realize that something was wrong with his sister's tone, and he immediately began to explain, "Sister, I didn't mean to hide this from you, I just wanted to... I wanted to give you a surprise, but when I went to the address you left, there was no one in the apartment.
I contacted my family later and found out you went to Hawaii."
"You seem quite aggrieved. Since you've already contacted your family, why don't you tell them and let them notify me? Now that I know, I will definitely come back immediately."
Xu Manman got angry when she thought of this. Yes, she was in Hawaii and no one was at the apartment address she left, but there were so many opportunities, yet no one thought of notifying her.
Xu Jianguo touched his nose. He was indeed wrong in doing this. "I'm sorry, sister. I just wanted to tell you this in person."
Yes, until he saw the news that his sister was looking for someone, Xu Jianguo was still thinking about keeping it a secret and giving his sister a surprise.
"Are you finished now?"
"That's all."
As soon as the voice on the other end fell, Xu Manman hung up the phone with a "click".
Xu Jianguo on the other end of the phone was holding the receiver, at a loss. He wanted to call back immediately, but the line was no longer connected.
Caleb King looked at the girl sitting on the sofa in front of him with an expressionless face and crossed arms, and felt a little panicked. He also heard what was said on the phone.
"Manman, what do you want to eat tonight?" You have to eat no matter how angry you are.
Xu Manman, with a cold face, uttered fiery words, "Spicy hot pot, super spicy!"
Not long after, Caleb Jin presented the host with a spicy hot pot with rich ingredients. Of course, it was not extremely spicy, at most it was medium spicy.
Xu Manman didn't care about such details. The spiciness was just right for her. She used poison to fight poison. After eating, she felt that the fire in her heart had subsided a lot.
Without waiting until the early morning of the next day, that night, seeing that it was almost time for my father to go to work, I directly called the technical department office of Beijing Machinery Factory.
"Mr. Xu, your daughter is looking for you. Come quickly. It's an international call."
Xu Gang put down his work and immediately stepped forward to pick up the phone. "Hello, Nannan, what's wrong? What's going on?"
Hearing her father's cheerful tone, Xu Manman's anger, which had been suppressed by the delicious food, flared up again. "What's the matter? What could it be? I'm going abroad, not dead. Don't I have the right to be informed of any family events, big or small?"
These words were very serious. Xu Gang felt a pang in his heart after hearing them. This was the first time in all these years that he had seen his daughter get so angry.
"Nannan, do you know about Jianguo's affairs?"
"Can I know? This is a major secret of the Xu family. Am I qualified to know?"
Xu Gang thought that it must be Xu Jianguo's eldest son who had done something bad. He should not have agreed to his bad idea in the first place. But these siblings were on the other side of the ocean, and they couldn't let any rift arise because of this matter.
"Nannan, listen to what daddy will explain to you. Jianguo has good intentions and wants to give you a surprise. Mom and Dad didn't hide this from you on purpose."
"You knew I was in Hawaii for the winter break, right? You should have guessed he wouldn't be able to find me in New York, right? During the one-month break, you and I only spoke on the phone less than six times. But during that time, did you, Mom, or Uncle ever mention this matter?"
If something really happened to Jianguo during this period, who would be held responsible?
