In the evening, Ma Kai drove to the studio to pick someone up.
When it was time to get off work, Chen He went to the front desk to pick up the housewarming gift she had chosen for Song Jingcheng in advance, and then left work with her grandmother.
Seeing them from a distance, Ma Kai put out his cigarette.
"Aunt Su, Miss Chen, are you off work?" Ma Kai considerately opened the car door and helped Su Jin hold the door above her head.
"Thank you for coming to pick us up, Xiaokai."
Ma Kai quickly shook his head, "It's not hard, Auntie."
Su Jin got in the car, felt it, and said to Chen He, "This car is better than yours. It's spacious and comfortable."
Chen He rolled her eyes almost to the sky, "Grandma, this is a nanny car, it's mainly for comfort and ease. Mine is a commuter car, or in layman's terms, a car for cattle and horses, how can they be the same?"
Ma Kai was amused by Chen He and laughed.
He took the opportunity to turn around and explain to Su Jin: "Aunt Su, this car is comfortable to sit in. Mr. Song specifically asked me to drive a spacious and comfortable car to pick you up."
Su Jin was very happy, but she deliberately put on the appearance of a reserved old lady and said calmly, "Mr. Song is very considerate."
Su Jin didn't want to say any unnecessary compliments.
Ma Kai just smiled and didn't say anything else.
However, Su Jin leaned over to Chen He's ear and whispered, "Is this car expensive?"
"It's expensive for us, but for Mr. Song, it's just a means of transportation." Chen He answered tactfully: "He should have quite a few such means of transportation."
Ma Kai said, "Mr. Song has a garage with a large collection of cars, but he got rid of them all some time ago."
Knowing that his life was coming to an end, Song Jingcheng gave away all the cars in his collection.
As Song Jingcheng's most trusted subordinate, Ma Kai also got an antique-level classic car, whose collection value far exceeds its practical value.
When Su Jin heard this, he whispered to Chen He, "He knows his health is failing, so he's dealing with the inheritance in advance."
Shen He didn't dare to say anything.
"Uncle Ma." Chen He noticed that the street scene outside looked familiar. She asked Ma Kai, "Mr. Song's new home is in Qingshui District?"
"Yes, Mr. Song bought a small Western-style building here, right next to Jiuxing Park."
Coincidentally, Chen He’s apartment is located in the new residential area opposite Jiuxing Park.
Her home is surrounded by tall buildings and looks bustling. The area around Jiuxing Park is low-rise and lush with greenery, making it look more like a suburb.
But anyone who knows the history of Qingshui District knows that Jiuxing Park is a place where hidden talents are found.
No one who can live in that area has a simple life.
The nanny car whizzed past the gate of Chenhe Apartment Community, crossed a cross-river bridge, drove along a wide asphalt road for three or four minutes, and finally stopped at the door of an old-style villa with a single door.
The villa is surrounded by a wall, and the plane trees in the courtyard stretch out, their lush greenery covering the gray-white wall.
There is a heavy sense of history.
There was a doorplate on the wall to the left of the iron gate, which read:
[Nine Star District No. 009.]
Chen He stood at the door and stared at the house number for a moment.
If she remembered correctly, the person who lived here before was the late president's wife.
“Aunt Su, Miss Shen, please come in.”
Chen He held the gift box and entered the yard with Su Jin.
The entrance is a straight asphalt road with green plants trimmed into unique shapes on both sides, and an angel fountain at the end of the road.
Behind the fountain, a flight of stairs leads to the main door of the small building.
Song Jingcheng stood in front of the hall waiting for them.
Seeing Chen He and Su Jin, Song Jingcheng slowly walked down the stairs and was about to say hello to Su Jin.
Su Jin interrupted him bluntly: "Don't call me grandma."
Song Jingcheng: "...Ms. Su."
He would never call her Aunt Su no matter what.
I already call her auntie, how can I change it to calling her grandma in the future?
Su Jin raised his eyebrows and thought to himself: What a cunning and sickly person!
Chen He was watching from behind with great joy.
"Ms. Su, welcome to our home. Please come in." Song Jingcheng gave Ma Kai a look, and Ma Kai quickly and enthusiastically led Su Jin into the house first.
Only then did Chen He come forward holding the box.
"Mr. Song, congratulations on your new home. This is the housewarming gift I chose for you. I don't know if it suits your taste."
Song Jingcheng opened the box.
This is a set of porcelain coffee cups produced in Jingdezhen, and they are couple cups.
Song Jingcheng didn't say whether he liked it or not, but instead asked, "How did you know it was you who used it?"
What a tricky question.
Chen He said with a smile, "I'll use whichever one Mr. Song gives me."
Song Jingcheng smiled and said, "Then use it as you like. I don't mind kissing you anytime."
Shen He's face suddenly turned red, and he regretted giving this thing.
Old green tea!
If I had known this earlier, I should have given him a green tea bonsai.
"I like this gift very much." Song Jingcheng took the box and subconsciously held Chen He's hand.
"Cough cough!" Su Jin coughed, and scared Song Jingcheng so much that he immediately became obedient.
He held the box steadily with both hands, looked up at Su Jin standing at the door, and said calmly, "There are still two guests who haven't arrived yet. Chen He, please help me entertain Ms. Su."
Su Jin said nothing.
After Song Jingcheng went to the gate, she complained to Chen He: "We are all here as guests. He asked you to entertain me. What does he mean?"
Chen He's face flushed red as she said, "What does he mean? Grandma, don't you know? He's deliberately asking for status with me."
Su Jin cursed in a low voice: "What a cunning guy!"
Just as the two were about to enter the house, they heard the sound of talking coming from the other side of the door. Shen He turned around and glanced casually.
