Chapter 218: Driving People Away



In this way, An Lisu came to a small Western-style building located in the southeast corner of Mai Sui school.

This is the temporary residence that Zhang Chaojin specially arranged for Mai Sui.

Although Mai Sui had said before that he could just arrange an apartment for him, Zhang Chaojin couldn't really do that.

This small Western-style building is a relic from the Republic of China period.

It has been renovated many times since then, so it still looks new.

There are two floors in total. In addition to the living room and kitchen, there are seven rooms, three upstairs and four downstairs.

There is also a small garden in front, with many roses and hydrangeas planted.

It is the flowering season now, and the courtyard is full of colorful flowers, which looks quite romantic.

But this is just an appearance.

In fact, the yard and the surroundings of the house are full of various mechanisms, all designed by Mai Sui himself.

It was not to guard against thieves, but to guard against Zhang Chaojin, Sheng Huainan and others.

Zhang Chaojin once broke in at nine o'clock in the evening, wanting to ask Mai Sui some questions, and then he was hung up by the agency.

Since then, no one dared to force their way in.

Later, Zhang Chaojin blamed Shen Xingchen for not telling him about the trap in advance.

Shen Xingchen was speechless: Because it’s late at night and I don’t want to be disturbed!

Mai Sui was afraid that Mai Laosan and the others would wander around and accidentally step on the mechanism, so he told them a few key nodes.

These things were originally used to guard against Zhang Chaojin and others, so it doesn't matter if I tell Mai Laosan and the others.

An Lisu also heard it.

She couldn't help but feel a deep admiration for Wheat Ear!

Such a smart person should become her true companion!

The desire to incite Mai Sui to rebel rose to a new level at this moment!

After Zhou Zhengting put down Mai Laosan’s luggage, he prepared to leave.

Mai Lao San wanted to invite him to dinner, but Zhou Zhengting declined.

He stayed here for most of the morning, and now that the matter was settled, he had to go back to work overtime.

There’s nothing I can do. I’ve been under a lot of work pressure lately!

Seeing this, An Lishu also said that it was time for her to leave.

Naturally, Mai Laosan had to be polite and keep An Lishu just like he did to Zhou Zhengting.

As a result, An Lisu was waiting for him to ask her to stay, and she didn't even pretend to refuse and agreed immediately.

"Uncle San, since you have invited me so kindly, I will respectfully obey your order!"

Mai Laosan: I...was just being polite.

Those who understand Chinese tradition will understand.

Although Mai Laosan and An Lishu had been chatting enthusiastically before and seemed to be getting along very well.

But at this moment, Mai Laosan felt that the other party was a little confused.

Because he wanted to report to Mai Sui about the revenue of the Lotus Factory and their plan to attack the black market in Beijing.

An Lishu was alone with the stranger, so it was inconvenient for them to talk.

It doesn't seem like a good idea to leave them alone and let them run around the room to discuss things.

However, these are all external factors.

The most important reason is that An Lishu’s plaster is too expensive!

This greatly reduced An Lisu's impression of Mai Lao San!

An Lisu was thick-skinned and pretended not to notice Mai Laosan's awkwardness. She was quite active and even said she would help with cooking or something. In fact, she wanted to take the opportunity to investigate the situation in the house.

Mai Sui didn't care. She never worried about such trivial matters.

However, An Lisu could only hang around on the first floor and could not find an excuse to go to the second floor.

After a while, Shen Xingchen finally came back.

With him were Zhang Chaojin, Sheng Huainan, Qian Hongwei, and Lu Yanlin.

They had originally agreed not to come to Mai Sui's house and disturb her.

But the experiment in the morning was stuck in the middle. I couldn't go on or off, which was really frustrating.

So, they wanted to come over to continue their morning discussion, only to find that someone was at Mai Sui's house.

The content they are learning now has not been made public and needs to be kept confidential.

Therefore, in front of outsiders, Zhang Chaojin and the others did not ask too many questions.

Unless Mai Sui goes with them to the study on the second floor.

But Mai Sui would definitely not agree. She would stay in the living room anyway and do whatever she wants!

Afterwards, Shen Xingchen introduced both parties.

When Zhang Chaojin heard that the other person was Mai Sui's father, he immediately asked, "Comrade Mai, why did you give Mai Sui so many nicknames?"

"Nickname?" Mai Laosan was confused, but then he realized that the other party was probably referring to the nickname given to Mai Sui by the villagers.

For example, a fool, a idiot, etc.

Then, Mai Lao San held his forehead with his hand and acted sad: "Those are not nicknames at all, they are just given by the villagers. It's all my fault, I am both a father and a mother, sometimes I just ignore them."

Zhang Chaojin and others: ...The people in your village are quite educated and even know foreign names!

Mai Laosan didn't notice the subtle expressions of Zhang Chaojin and others, and started acting again:

"Thinking back to the past, I raised them all by myself with great difficulty. Now that they have become successful, I can finally rest assured."

Zhang Chaojin and others agreed with this point.

Zhang Chaojin stepped forward, shook Mai Laosan's hand, and said seriously: "Comrade Mai, please allow me to thank you on behalf of the people. You have indeed raised a good daughter!"

Wheat Ear stood aside, watching them being affectionate with each other silently, unable to say a word.

How could she explain this?

Forget it, let's leave it at that.

Afterwards, An Lishu made lunch, and Chen Jiushan and Song Hewei helped.

All the others sat in the living room with Mai Sui, waiting for the ready-made food.

An Lishu's inner excitement could no longer be described in words.

She didn't expect to have such an unexpected gain.

Chen Jiushan and Song Hewei only knew that people like Zhang Chaojin were leaders, and they had an extraordinary aura.

But An Lisu knew clearly in her heart that it was never easy to get in touch with these people under normal circumstances.

Four of them came today, plus an ear of wheat, so this originally ordinary lunch can be called a state banquet!

When An Lisu cooks, she uses all her skills and tries her best to make every dish perfect.

Not only do we pursue taste, but we also pay great attention to the presentation of the dishes to ensure that they are delicious in color, aroma and taste!

Song Hewei knew that she was not good at cooking, so she just helped out.

Chen Jiushan is different from Song Hewei. He is Mai Sui's brother-in-law and is considered a family member.

Originally, he felt it was a bit embarrassing to let An Lishu, a guest, work in the kitchen, so he planned to cook.

But how could An Lishu agree!

This is a rare opportunity to perform.

I don't expect to get closer to Zhang Chaojin and others immediately, but at least I have to make a deep impression on them.

So, with An Lishu's insistence, Chen Jiushan changed from a chef to a vegetable washer.

I have to say that An Lishu’s cooking skills are quite good.

As soon as the food was served, An Lishu received unanimous praise from everyone just by looking at its appearance.

Taste it again, it's absolutely amazing!

After the meal, everyone changed the way they addressed An Lishu from "Dr. An" to "Xiao An".

Obviously a lot closer.

What made An Lisu happiest was that Mai Sui finally looked at her straight in the eye and even praised her.

Wheat Ear said, "This chicken is good."

As a result, for the next period of time, An Lisu came to Mai Sui's house every day to cook for her.

Of course, this is a later story.

After dinner, Mai Sui drove everyone away.

It's really not polite or tactful at all!
