Chapter 55
When Pei Muyang opened the door for Jiang Chengyi, he was completely stunned.
He had never seen Jiang Chengyi like this before.
Her slightly long curly hair was styled into a fluffy state, and she wore a pair of frameless glasses on her delicate and flawless face. She had one button undone on the collar of her slim-fitting shirt, and wore light brown casual pants and a pair of white sneakers on her feet.
This old cucumber painted green actually has a youthful and masculine vibe.
When Pei Muyang realized what was happening, he couldn't help but stick his head out and looked to the left and right of the gate. He pretended to be confused and asked, "Hey, handsome guy, who are you looking for? Have you seen Jiang Chengyi? He just called and said he was at the door."
"Yangyang!" Jiang Chengyi looked at the boy with an exaggerated expression in front of him with helplessness and indulgence, and smiled, "Is it really that exaggerated?"
"Please, if you don't know anything like that, you might think my classmate is here to see me."
Pei Muyang finally couldn't help laughing as he watched Jiang Chengyi pretending to be young.
Perhaps it was because we were used to seeing Jiang Chengyi dominating the company and making all the decisions, so this was the first time we saw such a vigorous and energetic side of him. It was a very shocking contrast.
But to be honest, he still looks ridiculously handsome like this.
"Come in quickly, I've been waiting for you for a long time."
"Hey wait, there are some gifts in the elevator. There are quite a lot of them. Can you help me get them?"
Jiang Chengyi stopped Pei Muyang who turned around. He already had four very exquisite gift boxes in his hand, but he still pointed in the direction of the elevator and said.
"You're here, so why are you taking things?"
Pei Muyang followed Jiang Chengyi through the corridor and turned a corner to reach the elevator. In a blink of an eye, he saw a pile of gift boxes and packaging bags that were as tall as a person. The classic packaging with various famous brand logos made it obvious that the pile was worth a lot of money.
Pei Muyang was stunned.
Did he move the mall here?
"Why did you buy so many things?"
"I didn't know what Auntie would like, so I bought a few extra. I can't expect the first gift I give her wouldn't suit her taste, right?"
Jiang Chengyi explained as he carried large and small bags of things.
This is the gift he selected last night after consulting the gifts that twenty married male employees brought when they visited their mother-in-law's house for the first time. He also combined it with the high-quality answers on the authoritative forum on Baidu that gave the golden son-in-law, and selected the gift that was most well-received by the mother-in-law.
He takes every aspect of it into consideration and never misses a single detail.
The two of them ran back and forth three or four times before they finished moving the things. When they entered the house, they were both sweating profusely. Pei Muyang pulled his collar and fanned himself twice, then heaved a long sigh of relief. "Hurry up and sit down. Don't be polite. I'll go get you a glass of water."
He changed into slippers at the door, greeted Jiang Chengyi, and then turned to the kitchen to prepare water for Jiang Chengyi.
Jiang Chengyi also took this opportunity to look around this place filled with Pei Muyang's life atmosphere.
This is a two-bedroom, two-living room house, about 80 to 90 square meters. Because the house is old, many things inside are a bit old, but it is kept clean and warm by the owner, and it feels like home at first glance.
There are many literature-related books on the bookshelf behind him. In addition, there are several 12-inch photo frames, which are full of photos of Pei Muyang when he was a child.
As a guest, it is impolite to take the host's personal belongings without the host's permission, but fortunately Jiang Chengyi has good eyesight, and he saw at a glance the photo opposite him showing Pei Muyang crying loudly because he had lost a front tooth.
Jiang Chengyi couldn't help but look at the photo twice more, and a smile appeared on the corner of his lips. He couldn't imagine that Yangyang was so naughty when he was a child. He was so cute and adorable.
Unfortunately, that was a period of time that he could not participate in. Even though he now holds a prominent position in the business world and has more wealth than an ordinary person could spend in several lifetimes, he still does not have the ability to travel back in time and grow up with Pei Muyang.
All he can grasp is every day left in this life. He will stay by the boy's side until death, from spring to dusk, from black hair to white hair.
I will never forget you and hope that we can be together in all the lives to come.
Pei Muyang made a cup of lime water for Jiang Chengyi. He squeezed the juice out of the cut lime and added some honey. After thinking for a moment, he even added two pieces of ice.
It’s icy and cool, quenches your thirst and relieves summer heat.
When he handed the water to Jiang Chengyi, he happened to see Ye Shan, who had gone out to buy fruit, open the door and come in.
"Yangyang, is Cheng Yi here?"
"Yes, Mom."
Pei Muyang took the fruit from Ye Shan's hand and went to the kitchen to wash it, leaving Ye Shan alone in the living room to chat with Jiang Chengyi.
"Hello, Auntie. I'm sorry to bother you by visiting your home."
"No way, Cheng Yi, you've helped Yang Yang so much. Auntie is especially grateful to you, so I invite you to come home and play. Auntie sincerely welcomes you."
"Thank you, Auntie. These are things I should do. You don't need to be so polite. Besides, with my relationship with Yangyang, I am willing to do anything for you."
"You are such a sensible and modest child! Come on, Chengyi, have some fruit, have some fruit!" Ye Shan placed the fruit that Pei Muyang had washed in front of Jiang Chengyi. "Today's fruit is very fresh. Take whatever you like, it's like being at home."
Ye Shan heard that Jiang Chengyi was allergic to mangoes, so she went to the supermarket and bought several other fruits besides mangoes. Pei Muyang washed them clean and put them in the fruit plate, looking very delicious.
Jiang Chengyi reached out and picked a Sunshine Rose. The skin was difficult to peel, but his flexible and slender fingers tried their best to peel out the flesh.
Then, he handed it to Pei Muyang who was eating a watermelon.
"Um?"
"I've peeled it for you, eat it."
Jiang Chengyi looked natural as he handed the fruit to Pei Muyang's mouth. He was sure that the boy would not refuse. Although this action was a bit ambiguous, as long as he was frank enough, it would not arouse the suspicion of the little straight boy.
In this regard, Jiang Chengyi has lived five years longer than Pei Muyang. Time is experience, and his mentality is very stable.
Pei Muyang ate a few of them from Jiang Chengyi's hand, and then returned the favor by handing him a piece of watermelon.
Ye Shan was puzzled by the interaction between the two people. How long have they known each other, and their relationship is already so good?
but……
Ye Shan looked at the handsome and elegant young man in front of her, and nodded secretly in her heart. Xiao Jiang was young and promising, and his speech and behavior were humble and polite. He also had a good relationship with Yang Yang. He was a very good kid. There were not many young people who were so outstanding nowadays. He was even several times better than Yang Yang.
What’s even more rare is that this child has a sweet mouth, and the aunts one by one coaxed Ye Shan and made her very happy.
So the more she watched, the more she liked him. She treated Jiang Chengyi like her own son and even sat on the same sofa and kissed the cricket affectionately.
When it was time to eat, Ye Shan passed over her own son and frequently picked up food for Jiang Chengyi. Before leaving, she held his hand and repeatedly told him to come and visit often in the future.
Jiang Chengyi naturally agreed to it, which made Ye Shan very favorable, and made the smile on Ye Shan's face even brighter.
"Yangyang, let me clean the kitchen. You go out and see Cheng Yi off."
Jiang Chengyi waved his hand and said no when he heard this, "No need, Auntie. Yangyang is busy cooking and cleaning, it's too hard, so don't let him take me."
"It's okay, just treat it as a walk after dinner."
Pei Muyang wiped his hands, went back to his room to change his clothes, and pulled Jiang Chengyi out the door.
Ye Shan watched the two people leave with a smile. This kid is really good!
The afternoon sun was a little hot, but the two of them were not in a hurry. They walked slowly under the shade of the trees, listening to the noisy cicadas and chatting as they walked.
"Thank you for today. Yangyang's cooking is really delicious. I am very grateful to you and Auntie for your hospitality."
"Brother Yi, why are you being polite to me? Aren't we friends? Isn't it the most normal thing for good friends to come to our house for dinner?" Pei Muyang asked with a smile.
"Since we're friends, can I come often in the future? After all, I like Aunt Ye very much, too."
"Of course you can. But next time you come, remember not to bring those things. They're too expensive. We're just family, we don't care about those extravagant things."
"Okay, by the way, Yangyang..."
"What's wrong?"
Pei Muyang turned his head and saw Jiang Chengyi pretending to be speechless.
He couldn't help but ask curiously, "What's the matter?"
"Originally, I shouldn't bother you with this matter. My uncle just had surgery and needs someone to take care of him. It's hard for my aunt to be alone, but..." Jiang Chengyi interrupted the conversation at the right time and pursed his lips, expressing his aggrieved look to the extreme.
"So, is there something you need me to do?"
Pei Muyang was not stupid. He knew that the boss was addicted to green tea and wanted him to work overtime for free, but was embarrassed to say it out loud due to the relationship, so he hinted at him to take the initiative in a teasing way.
He has to continue this story.
Jiang Chengyi is a very nice person. He has helped him so much. Every single one of them is a great favor to him.
Pei Muyang was not someone who didn't know how to repay his gratitude. Moreover, he really felt that Jiang Chengyi was...
Pei Muyang raised his head and looked carefully at the person in front of him. He inexplicably felt a warmth surging in his heart, which came from nowhere. The warmth flowed through his blood and to every corner of his body.
It makes people feel light and airy, and even the soul is nourished with colorful colors.
"Tell me, what do you need me to do? Do you want me to stand up for you? Or do you want me to stab you? I'm an expert at this and I'm always available."
"Yangyang, you're being polite. Actually, I just wanted to ask, if it's convenient for you, could I invite you to a business banquet tomorrow night?"
"Business banquet?"
"Well, the Chamber of Commerce in City A is holding a banquet at the Yunjing Hotel tomorrow night. They've invited all the well-known business celebrities and bigwigs from all walks of life to attend. It's a relatively formal banquet to exchange experiences and promote trade."
"Then why don't you let Brother Zhou accompany you to such a formal banquet? After all, I'm just a secretary with a clerk's name on it. I don't know anything."
Jiang Chengyi looked at Pei Muyang and couldn't help but imagine him wearing a suit and standing next to him. It was so beautiful and so desirable.
He just wanted to secretly declare to everyone he knew that the boy was worthy of her and the only one who could stand by his side.
So he took some effort to make himself look particularly weak, helpless and pitiful.
"But I'd rather attend with Yangyang."
Pei Muyang was a little dazed. Well, the cute contrast of the domineering CEO was really too impactful, making people unable to help but want to indulge his unconcealed little thoughts.
"Okay, no problem, I'll go with you."
