However, the wait lasted until dark.
During this time, Su Xing got off the car several times to check at the gate and confirmed that the Zhang family had not returned.
He couldn't help but wonder in his heart.
At Mr. Zhang’s age, after being outside all day, it’s time for him to come back!
But after dinner time, the lights in the surrounding houses began to go out one by one.
However, no one from the Zhang family returned.
Even Wang Mei'e, who was at home in the morning, never came back since she left.
Su Xing couldn't help but start to worry. Was there anything wrong?
Thinking of this possibility, he could no longer wait, started the car, and planned to head towards Xiangshan to meet them.
At this moment, a car headlight suddenly turned in front, and the high beam was extremely dazzling in the night.
He closed his eyes subconsciously.
When he opened his eyes again, he saw two cars parked opposite him, one in front and one behind.
I saw the front driver's door open, and a man in a neat suit stepped down, walked around to the passenger seat with a smile and opened the door.
He bent down, put one hand on the roof of the car and reached towards the door with the other.
He performed a series of elegant and gentlemanly actions to help the girl in the passenger seat get out of the car.
Facing the side light, the girl was surrounded by a faint golden halo.
Her slightly curly long hair was combed into a high ponytail, making her palm-sized face look even more delicate. She wore a long khaki waisted trench coat, which made her already almost perfect body proportions look even more slender and charming.
She stood in front of the man with a smile on her face, her pretty oval face raised upwards, revealing her fair and slender neck. For the first time, Su Xing realized that this girl was so pretty!
Under the cover of night, the other party obviously did not notice his presence.
Under the illumination of the jeep lights, the girl's cherry lips moved as she spoke something to the man.
The corners of the man's lips were raised high and never fell. He nodded in response from time to time. Although the two kept a certain distance, there was no strangeness or discomfort at all. It seemed that he was even more familiar and intimate than when he was with her.
Su Xing couldn't help but tighten his grip on the steering wheel, his eyes turned red, and he wished he could rush forward immediately to put more distance between the two of them.
At this time, a head popped out of the rear window and Wang Mei'e shouted loudly to the front,
"Changhong, just drop me off here. It's getting late today, so I won't keep you here any longer. You should go back and get some rest! When you have nothing to do next time, remember to come to my house often. Just treat it as your own home, and don't treat yourself as an outsider."
The man leaned back and looked towards the car behind him, his smile growing wider.
"I understand, cousin. I'll be back first! The tea is a bit strong tonight, so you'd better drink a cup of hot milk before going to bed. Don't lose sleep."
"I just said you're the most thoughtful kid!"
Wang Mei'e praised, winked at the car, and urged again,
"Okay, your Aunt Wenhui and Uncle Minglang have heard it, so you should go back early!"
Logically, Shen Changhong should have followed Wang Mei'e in calling Zhang Minglang and Liu Wenhui brother and sister-in-law. In order to bring the two together, Wang Mei'e deliberately changed the way they addressed each other at the dinner table.
The man nodded and whispered something to the girl beside him. The girl smiled even more brightly because of his words and watched him step into the car.
The two waved goodbye through the car window...
Su Xing looked at everything in front of him with bloodshot eyes, and he looked at the direction where the two people had just stood as if he had lost his soul.
She is really with someone else and doesn't want to be alone...
At this moment, he had only this one thought in his mind, and completely forgot the purpose of coming here. He even lost the courage to see her again!
He even comforted himself in his heart that as long as he didn't ask and she didn't say, everything might remain the same...
Outside the car window, Liu Wenhui got out of the car, walked to Zhang Shishi, smiled and took her arm.
"Come on, Mom will walk home with you!"
Zhang Shishi leaned her head on her shoulder and walked home in a coquettish manner.
"Climbing the mountain is so tiring! My calves are sore now. Mom, can you go back and massage them for me?"
"Okay! Let mommy massage you when we get home! You're so old, but you're still like a child."
Liu Wenhui patted the back of her hand lovingly,
“Thanks to Chen Changhong today, if we hadn’t met him, we would probably still be on the road now!
By the way, there’s also the meal tonight. Just looking at the ingredients, I think they’re quite expensive. Even though they confiscated them, we can’t take advantage of them like that.
Especially since he still has feelings for you, we can't let him treat us to a meal for free! Give the money to Zhang Qi and ask him to take it to him. "
"Okay! I understand, Mom."
Zhang Shishi's little head responded bit by bit.
Looking at her daughter who was acting like a spoiled child on her shoulder, Liu Wenhui pursed her lips, as if she suddenly thought of something, and said,
"I think your aunt is still thinking about bringing you and the Shen family together. However, just now on the road, she asked me a lot about the Su family, which made me a little unsure what she was thinking!
However, based on my mother's observation today, Shen Changhong seems to be a pretty good person.
Although he is a little older, his manners, behavior, family background, talent and appearance are impeccable.
My dear, Mommy is asking you, are you sure it’s Su Xing?”
Hearing her ask this, Zhang Shishi stood up straight, glanced at the stars in the sky, and then nodded.
"Mom, I'm sure!" She said firmly.
“Although that guy hasn’t expressed anything yet, I can feel that he cares about me in his heart.
But, maybe... he himself hasn't figured out his own heart yet.
