Chapter 128 A Friend
Bai Chuxian scoffed at her mother's wishful thinking.
"Mom, why did Dad suddenly move in with us?"
Huang Biqin told her a devastating news.
"It's all for you. He said it was his fault for not disciplining you properly before, and now he will correct you. So he's moving in with us so he can discipline you better."
"how so?"
Bai Chuxian murmured in despair.
"Mom, I'm grown up now and don't need his discipline. Can you tell him to move out? He's reluctant to live with us anyway."
"No, your dad finally agreed to live with us. Be good and help mom keep dad."
"I don't want it. I'm chasing a man and you're stopping me. Why do you need my help when you're chasing a man? It's not fair. I don't want it!"
"It's not that Mommy doesn't want to help you, it's just that our situations are different. The man I like is single, and you like a married woman. I can't help you!"
"I don't care! If you don't help me, I won't help you."
Huang Biqin didn't care either.
"Then I don't need your help. I can help your father return to this family by myself."
Bai Chuxian hit her.
"You'd better not get your hopes up!"
"Don't be such a jinx!"
Ever since Bai Mengsheng moved in, Bai Chuxian's life can only be described as dire straits.
There will be no chance to sneak out again.
I was locked in the room to draw every day, and was woken up in the morning to run with him.
She was so sleepy that she felt her eyes were closed.
You know, she usually sleeps until noon, how could she get up early?
"Dad, can I go out to eat tonight? I'm tired of eating at home every day."
"What do you want to eat? You can order takeout."
"Dad, you old fogey, you still know about takeout! But I want to eat hot pot, and the hot pot restaurant I want to eat at doesn't have takeout."
Bai Mengsheng thought for a while.
"Let me go eat with you!"
"What?"
Bai Chuxian thought she had heard it wrong and asked again in disbelief.
"Are you saying you want to go eat hot pot with me? Did I hear you right?"
Bai Mengsheng glanced at her, picked up his coat, stood up and walked out.
After walking for a while, he realized that the person hadn't caught up with him, so he turned around and asked, "Are you not leaving?"
Bai Chuxian had no choice but to follow in a depressed mood. Forget it, the words have been said, so she has to eat even if she doesn’t want to.
Just as Bai Mengsheng's car was about to start, Huang Biqin ran out with a bag.
"I'm going too!"
After saying that, he opened the car door and sat in the passenger seat.
Bai Mengsheng frowned, a little unhappy, but she was Chu Xian's mother, so she couldn't say anything and could only drive in silence.
Bai Chuxian chuckled.
"Alas, I'm finally not the only one suffering!"
Huang Biqin turned around and glared at her. What a shameless girl!
"How do I get there?"
"ah?"
"I'm asking you where is that hot pot restaurant? How do I get there?"
Bai Chuxian was confused. How could she know where it was? She just wanted to go out and made up an excuse. Besides, she didn't like hot pot, but she said hot pot because she thought it couldn't be delivered.
"If you don't tell me, how can I open it?"
Bai Mengsheng parked the car on the side of the road and waited for her directions.
Bai Chuxian thought for a long time but couldn't remember where to find hot pot.
He casually said, "Just drive forward."
Bai Mengsheng had no choice but to restart the car.
After driving a few more turns, he asked again, "Are we almost there?"
Bai Chuxian said guiltily: "It's almost there..."
The car drove to a busy street. Bai Chuxian saw a hot pot restaurant on the side of the street, and there were many people eating there.
"Dad, that's the one!"
Bai Mengsheng drove towards the hot pot restaurant she pointed to and parked the car.
Three people got out of the car and entered the hot pot restaurant.
As soon as you enter the restaurant, the strong aroma of hot pot hits your nose.
Bai Mengsheng felt a little unwell. He usually had a light diet and rarely ate heavy food.
Huang Biqin covered her nose and said, "Xiao Xian, when did you start liking something as strong as hot pot? How come I didn't know?"
Bai Chuxian controlled the urge to turn around and leave.
"I just fell in love with it recently."
The three of them found a place to sit down.
Huang Biqin didn't dare to sit next to Bai Mengsheng, so she sat next to Bai Chuxian.
The waiter enthusiastically recommended their store’s signature hotpot base to them.
"Xiao Xian, since you've eaten before, you can have some."
Bai Mengsheng pushed the menu to Bai Chuxian.
Wenxi felt that the world was so small that he could run into Bai Chuxian's family while having hotpot.
And he sat at the table next to them.
Before Wenxi looked away, Bai Mengsheng looked up and saw Wenxi.
Bai Mengsheng was stunned.
"Miss Wen is here to eat hot pot too? What a coincidence!"
Wenxi smiled and greeted politely.
"Mr. Bai."
Bai Chuxian and Lin Huizi turned around at the same time.
When Bai Chuxian saw Wenxi, her face instantly turned bad. How could she run into this woman whenever she entered a store?
Of course she didn't want to talk to Wenxi and Lin Huizi, so she took a look and turned away.
"Xiaoxi, who is that man? Do you know him?"
"I met Bai Chuxian's father once, but I'm not familiar with him."
Here, Huang Biqin also asked: "Mengsheng, do you know that lady?"
People like Bai Mengsheng rarely go out and only know a few people, and even fewer women. Yet he took the initiative to greet a little girl.
She is very curious.
Bai Mengsheng glanced at Bai Chuxian.
"A friend."
When Bai Chuxian heard her father say that Wenxi was his friend, she asked in surprise, "Dad, you just returned to China not long ago, how did you know Wenxi? How did she become your friend?"
"Wenxi?"
Huang Biqin remembered.
"She is Mu Yansen's wife, Wenxi."
Huang Biqin couldn't help but look back and take a closer look at the girl.
She is very beautiful, I seem to have seen her somewhere.
Then she thought of the previous video on the Internet. She thought that she must have seen her online, but she didn’t remember it at the moment and didn’t care.
Bai Chuxian looked at Bai Mengsheng.
"Dad, I'm asking you a question!"
Bai Mengsheng was fiddling with the soup base that the waiter had just brought.
Well, so many chili peppers and such thick red oil, is it edible?
In response to his daughter's question, he simply replied, "I met her the day I returned to China. I think she's pretty good! She's sensible, polite, and motivated."
"Dad, you've only met her once, do you know what kind of person she is?"
"Don't worry, even though I don't like going out, I have no problem seeing people."
"Dad, I'm telling you, don't be fooled by Wenxi's appearance. She's not as simple as you think. This woman is very scheming. She's ungrateful and selfish. She..."
"Xiao Xian!"
Bai Mengsheng interrupted her unhappily.
"Have I ever taught you not to judge or talk about others behind their backs without knowing the real situation?"
"But……"
"No buts!"
Bai Chuxian turned around and glared at Wen Xi angrily.
Bai Mengsheng's praise of Wenxi made her angry and jealous.
Why do the man she likes and her father both like Wenxi? How can that bitch be a match for him?
