"This is such a coincidence! It's simply a fate sent by heaven, Xixi!"
Lin Hongfen said with a rosy face, "Xixi, why don't you go live over there and let grandma live here alone.
This way you will have more opportunities to get along with Dr. Mu!"
Lin Hongfen became excited as she spoke, and she wanted to pack up her granddaughter's things immediately and send her over with her luggage.
Ying Xixi: “….”
"Grandma, calm down. I'll go cook dinner first, and then we can look at furniture together online.
There's nothing in that house over there; we need to add some furniture.
Even if I don’t live there anymore, it will be easier to rent it out.”
"Want to rent it out?"
Lin Hongfen's attention was diverted by Ying Xixi.
"Not necessarily, it depends on whether we decide to live here or there in the end.
By then, we will definitely have to vacate a house and rent out the unused one.”
Ying Xixi put on an apron and explained to her grandmother.
Lin Hongfen thought for a moment and said, "That's fine, Xixi. You've recovered now. You can make the decisions about family matters from now on."
"Grandma, we can just make the decision together."
Ying Xixi went to the kitchen after she finished speaking.
Lin Hongfen felt a little emotional, her granddaughter had really grown up.
Ying Xixi and her grandmother selected furniture online in the afternoon and were waiting for the arrival of the goods so that they could go to the apartment with the elevator.
The next evening, it was time for Ying Xixi and the Mu family of three to have dinner together.
Ying Xixi booked a table at a restaurant near the residential complex and ordered all the food and everything in advance.
Ying Xixi and her grandmother had just left the house when the Mu family next door opened the door and came out, so they walked over together.
Not long after the two families sat down, someone came over.
"Hey, isn't this Xiao Mu and Xiao He, you guys are here to eat too.
By the way, does your son have a partner? He is not young anymore and it’s time for him to find a partner.
My friend has a girl who just graduated from college this year. How about introducing her to you guys?
The person who spoke was a middle-aged woman with a big mouth. She talked a lot and completely ignored the ugly expressions of the Mu couple.
"I don't dare let my son meet the person you introduced me to. I already told you very clearly last time.
It’s none of your business to meddle in my family’s affairs. How come you’re deaf and didn’t hear anything?
My son already has a girlfriend, so you don't need to worry about him. Go away and don't disturb my appetite!"
He Yi retorted with a cold face, which made the big-mouthed woman stunned for a moment, and then her eyes fell on Ying Xixi.
"Isn't this the woman your son is dating? Oh, are you guys out for dinner and meeting your parents?
Little girl, you look very young, are you an adult yet?
Do you know the situation of the Mu family? How dare you date Mu Yan? Do you know Mu Yan...?"
"That's enough! Shut up! Get out of here!"
He Yi interrupted the loud-mouthed woman harshly before she finished speaking.
The big-mouthed woman curled her lips and said, "What do you mean? It seems that you didn't tell the little girl about your son. This is not fair. You can't lie to the little girl.
"Okay, okay, I'm leaving. What kind of person are you? I just wanted to introduce your son to someone because we're all relatives. My kindness is being treated like a donkey's liver and lungs! Bah!"
The loud-mouthed woman muttered a few words, rolled her eyes and walked away.
He Yi's chest was heaving with anger, and Mu's father patted her back gently to comfort her.
Mu Yan didn't say a word the whole time, but Ying Xixi noticed that Mu Yan's expressionless face had obviously become much colder.
This was the Mu family's family affair, so Ying Xixi didn't know what to say, so she just glanced at her grandmother.
Lin Hongfen took the initiative to speak up and smooth things over.
"Xiao He, there's no need for us to get angry over unimportant people. Everyone has a few annoying relatives. Just don't take them too seriously.
Come, come and have dinner. I wonder if these dishes suit your taste."
He Yi tried his best to control his emotions and pulled the corners of his mouth a little embarrassedly.
"Okay, listen to grandma, Xixi. I'm sorry that crazy woman dragged you into this."
"It's okay, Aunt He, I understand. Let's eat first."
Ying Xixi greeted him.
The atmosphere at the dinner table gradually became better, but Ying Xixi still vaguely noticed that Mu Yan had changed a little.
If before, some of Mu Yan's behaviors and words in front of her would make her have the illusion that Mu Yan really had feelings for her.
But now, maybe because of what that relative of the Mu family said, Mu Yan seemed a little cold?
It's like a little turtle that just poked its head out of its shell, but then retracted its head because of something else.
Through the events in the original plot, Ying Xixi felt that Mu Yan was not the kind of person who would vent his anger on others.
That only means that the woman’s words just now must have mentioned some fact that reminded Mu Yan.
The woman talked about the situation of the Mu family and Mu Yan's affairs.
Does that mean that if people knew these two situations, no one would want to date Mu Yan?
It seems that the Mu family’s secret has been discovered by that woman.
Ying Xixi ate her meal slowly and leisurely, thinking about what had just happened without showing any expression.
But after thinking for a long time, I still don’t know what secrets the Mu family has.
There is very little description of the Mu family in the original plot, and there is no useful information.
After the meal, although the two families were chatting and laughing, the appearance of the woman just now still affected the mood of the Mu family.
The two families returned to the community together and then went back to their respective homes.
After a few days, the furniture that Ying Xixi bought online finally arrived.
She said something to her grandmother and rode her motorcycle to the elevator building.
She bought two beds, tables, chairs, cabinets and other basic furniture.
The seller's people came and completed the installation of the items that were included and left. As for the remaining cabinets and other items that were not included in the installation, Ying Xixi had to install them herself.
Ying Xixi called her grandmother and told her that she planned to stay there until the evening, finish installing everything, and then go back.
But Ying Xixi hadn't been installing it for a while when the doorbell rang.
When she opened the door, she saw that it was Mu Yan.
It has been three or four days since the last time the two families had dinner together.
She and Mu Yan had no contact in the past three or four days, and they didn't meet each other by coincidence.
It’s as if all the previous coincidences and fate have been used up.
"Doctor Mu? What's the matter?"
"I heard from grandma that you were installing furniture here. I happened to be on vacation this afternoon, so I thought I'd come over and help you."
Mu Yan's expression was still very calm, and those who didn't know him would think he was saying something against his will.
"Thank you, Dr. Mu! You coming here really helps me a lot! I was just worried about the cabinet installation! Come in!"
