Chapter 134 Unexpected
"Shuangshuang, I was wrong!"
"Haha, it's okay, go ahead and keep arguing!"
"Listen to my excuses..."
"Temporary deafness, can't hear."
They are really a pair of bickering lovers. It was supposed to be a sweet confession of love, but the two of them turned it into a fight with their sleeves rolled up.
Caught in the middle and seeing the situation about to get out of control, Su Ning broke free from her tightly bound hands and deliberately provoked her.
"Okay, I can see that you two are really not suitable for each other, so why not just break up before it officially starts?"
"What's wrong with that?"
"We are a perfect match!"
A rhetorical question and a confirmation.
The two people who refuted at the same time tacitly looked at each other, and then dodged away embarrassedly, but finally revealed the shy and sweet smile on their faces.
"Have you had enough of the noise? Still making noise?"
"Hey, stop making trouble, stop making trouble. I haven't changed my roles yet. Shuangshuang, don't be angry. If I subconsciously say something bad to you again, you should slap me in the face!"
"Humph, you are so shameless, I am afraid my hand will hurt."
Although he said these words with great disgust, the corners of his mouth were raised and he couldn't suppress them.
Facing her friend's slightly teasing eyes, Luo Shuangshuang's cheeks couldn't help but get even hotter. She took a big step, put her arm around her again, and dragged her to the kitchen, "Ning Baogai, let's go. I'll help you cook."
"Hey, wait for me, I'm going too!"
Seeing this, Fu Jiaming, who had been standing there laughing foolishly for a few seconds, hurriedly followed.
Just kidding, I haven’t loved the newly-minted object enough, so of course I have to stick to it all the time!
With the presence of such a pair of lively treasures, the small kitchen suddenly became lively.
After the meal was ready, Gao Fen and her daughter, who had always been embarrassed to squeeze in to help, were called in. For the first time, the table was full.
Several dishes were still performed normally, with good color, aroma and taste.
But I don't know why, when I saw Fu Jiaming and Luo Shuangshuang, you picked up one chopstick for me and I picked up one chopstick for you, and from time to time we smiled at each other affectionately, I inexplicably felt that I couldn't eat anymore, I was full!
…
The autumn weather is clear and the sky is as blue as a mirror without a trace of gray.
The two-color vine flowers on the courtyard wall are almost over their flowering period, and there is already a hint of subtle yellow among the green branches and leaves.
The sunlight slanted through the roof and covered half of the front yard.
After dinner, a few people rested in the front yard, enjoying this rare leisure moment. Looking at the scenery in front of them, they couldn't help feeling physically and mentally happy.
"I went to Duyan Commune a few days ago and got some wild chrysanthemums. I tried to make some refreshing detoxifying tea. You can try it and see how it tastes."
After being dried, the small white and yellow chrysanthemums bloom in the cup after being brewed, which is pleasing to the eye just by looking at.
Luo Shuangshuang couldn't wait to pick up a cup first, and after taking a sip, her eyes lit up, "It has a light sweet taste, and it looks good and tastes good."
With a slight smile, Suning picked up the other two enamel cups and handed them to the two of them.
After they both reached out to take a cup, she seemed to have taken a long time to come back to her senses. She held up her cup with both hands and sat down on the swing bench next to Luo Shuangshuang.
"What's wrong?"
Yan Bei couldn't help but ask. If he saw it correctly, after their fingertips accidentally touched, the smile on her face disappeared and there was a hint of obscurity in her eyes.
"Nothing, I just suddenly remembered something."
Is that really true?
A big question mark appeared in Yan Bei's heart, but he chose not to continue asking. Instead, he nodded at her in understanding.
By lowering his head to drink tea, Suning lowered his eyes to hide his inner panic and confusion.
Why did the Yan family’s affairs come forward?
Clearly, there were still several months of buffer time before the future she glimpsed when she was in the Shanghai Stock Exchange last time.
How could it happen...in advance?
Was it because he rescued Yan Bei, or because his affairs deviated from the original trajectory and unpredictable situations occurred?
Even if she spoke up to remind him now, it would probably be too late.
He couldn't help but look at Yan Bei, not missing the concern for himself revealed in his eyes at this moment.
Thinking of the scene she had just seen, she couldn't help but feel sad for this person in front of her who was always like the breeze and bright moon.
Is there really no way to change it?
Suddenly, Suning thought of her grandfather’s good friends, Grandpa Zhao and his wife, whom she met on the day of her coming-of-age ceremony.
The last time I went to Shanghai, I was supposed to visit them, but unfortunately I encountered those two emergencies.
If she remembered correctly, although Grandpa Zhao and Grandma Xin had both retired, their children both held important positions in the Shanghai Stock Exchange.
"I need to go out and make a phone call at the post office. Grapefruit, you guys stay home for now. I'll be back soon."
Standing up and putting the teacup in his hand on the low table, Su Ning looked at the few people with an anxious look on his face.
Without saying a word, Yan Bei stood up and quickly put down the enamel cup, "I'll go with you."
"No, I can do it myself..."
"I'll ride my bike to get you there faster. When we get to the post office, I'll wait for you outside the door but you won't go in."
He had finished speaking, and thinking of the urgency of the situation, he nodded in agreement without further hesitation.
It was not until the two of them pushed the cart out of the gate that Luo Shuangshuang looked at Fu Jiaming in confusion, "What happened?"
"I don't know either...ah, maybe it's because of what happened at the factory gate this morning?"
I thought about it and apart from what happened in the morning, they were all together at the moment. Is there anything special going on that I could not be aware of?
Fu Jiaming felt that Suning went to the post office in such a hurry because he must have remembered something about that crying girl and needed to call back to Beijing.
"The factory gate this morning, was it your textile factory? What happened? You all knew about it? Why didn't you tell me?"
"It's nothing serious. It's just that a friend of Suning suddenly showed up out of nowhere, crying in front of her in a state of embarrassment, and forced her to go meet someone."
"Su Ning's friend? A woman who doesn't look good and starts crying after just a few words. She's called He Yue?"
"Huh? You know Shuangshuang too?"
Luo Shuangshuang nodded affirmatively and couldn't help squinting his eyes, "I saw it once and was deeply impressed."
…
Knowing that she was anxious, Yan Bei rode his bike at the maximum speed, and the journey of more than ten minutes was shortened to just a few minutes.
Even though he was in good physical condition, he couldn't help sweating and breathing heavily when the car stopped in front of the post office.
"Go make the call, I'll wait for you here."
"good."
Su Ning, who could only sit sideways in her long skirt, released her hand that was holding the corner of his clothes and jumped out of the car lightly.
As soon as he stepped onto the stairs, he turned around as if he remembered something.
In her hurry, she forgot to bring money or a bag to cover it up. She didn't even have a pocket on her clothes, and she couldn't just take things out of thin air in front of others.
"Does Yan Bei have any money on him? I forgot to take it."
With one foot supporting the bicycle with a straight long leg, Yan Bei took out a wallet from his trouser pocket and handed it to her without any hesitation.
Suning took it without thinking too much, picked up the wallet in a hurry, turned around and trotted into the post office.
First, he asked the operator to dial the number that was engraved in his heart. When he heard the familiar voice, he called out happily, "Grandpa Fu!"
"Ning girl, hahaha, why did you want to hang up on me at this time? How are you doing recently? Are you not sick? Is no one bullying you? Did you receive the package I sent you during the Mid-Autumn Festival?"
Before she could explain, Mr. Fu on the other end, upon learning that it was her, started asking her a long and caring question.
"Wait, Grandpa Fu, I'll call you later to tell you about this. I have something urgent to ask you now."
"Okay, okay, don't worry, Ning girl, what are you talking about?"
"Do you know Grandpa Zhao's phone number? I want to contact him as soon as possible."
"You old liar? Wait a minute, Ning girl. I'll call you back later."
"good."
After hanging up the phone, Suning knew that Grandpa Fu should have called the street office in Qinghe Lane and asked Yingying and Tingzi, the two siblings at home, to help look through it.
It will probably take a while to wait for these few trips back and forth.
He rubbed his fingers subconsciously, and when he touched the soft leather, he remembered that he was holding Yan Bei's wallet.
This kind of men's wallet is sold at the department store at the same price as women's bags.
I don’t know whether to say that he is careless or doesn’t care, as he actually stuffed the entire wallet into myself.
"Um?"
The brown-gray leather wallet has a little bit of white sticking out, like a note that was not properly clipped.
