Rich Contract: Kiss Goodbye, Paranoid

Xia Hong returned home on time at dinner time again.

In fact, three or five times a week is not bad. Xia Hong is busy with business and socializing, so it is not easy to go home before dinner time three or five times a week.

But since Qu Li and Xia Yuhao came to the house as "guests", this frequency has increased significantly, and there are almost only one or two days a week when they come home late, or, a little later.The reason for this, I don't know whether it was because there were two more people at the table, which made him feel a little more lively, or... simply because of those two people.

But today when he came back, Guo Wei was the only one waiting for him at the dining table. The huge dining table looked empty.

"Hey, Brother Hong, you're back. It's just right. Let's have dinner. The dinner is ready and I'm waiting for you to come back." In the past two days, Guo Wei's attitude towards Xia Hong has changed, and she even stopped calling him. "Husband", but call him "Brother Hong" like when he was young and acting like a baby.

But Xia Hong frowned suspiciously: "Why is it just you and the others?"

The "others" here include Qu Li, Xia Yuhao, and An Xueying.

Guo Wei smiled naturally at Xia Hong and said, "Everyone else has their own busy schedules, so they won't be coming back for dinner tonight, so it's just the two of us tonight. Why don't we have a candlelight dinner?"

Guo Wei's lightheartedness is not fake at all, first of all, as long as Xia Yuhao and Qu Li are not in sight, she is in a good mood, plus the rare opportunity to meet "dinner for two", she is in a good mood.As for what happened this afternoon, she had no idea at all.

In order to avoid the opportunity to meet Qu Li and Xia Yuhao as much as possible, Guo Wei tried to leave early and return late every day, and she had to try her best to be ahead of Xia Hong.So she actually just came back for a while.

When she came back, Xia Yuhao and Qu Li had just left, and they happened to be perfectly staggered.

Guo Wei waved to the servant and said, "Hey, go to the kitchen and get two candles, the white, slender ones."

Xia Hong hurriedly said: "Hey, what are you doing with those messy things? I'm very tired and I don't have time to play with you. Let's have dinner directly."

"Okay then, let's have dinner." Guo Wei was not too disappointed, the original "candlelight dinner" was just a whim on her mind.

After a busy day, Xia Hong hardly ate anything at noon, and Xia Hong was already hungry, so he didn't ask any further questions, and started eating directly.After dinner, the two of them planned to go upstairs directly. Now that the weather is cold, it is not suitable to take a walk outside. Guo Wei, who is extremely delicate, is even more afraid of catching cold, so she might as well do yoga in her room.

When he reached the stairs on the second floor, Xia Hong still felt a little strange, so he asked Aunt Miao, "Aunt Miao, why didn't Xue Ying come back tonight? Did you quarrel with Mo Chen again?"

Originally, she was afraid of being asked by Xia Hong. After Xia Hong came back, Aunt Miao had been deliberately avoiding him. She couldn't detect anything unusual, but she still got asked about it.

Aunt Miao quickly waved her hand and said, "No...Young Mistress said that there are some things to be busy at school."

"Oh, that kid is now a senior. I heard that he has started preparing his graduation thesis recently. Of course, he has a lot of things to do, so don't worry about it. Those two kids won't quarrel casually."

Guo Wei said this in a hurry, on the one hand, she was worried that Xia Hong would find fault with her son, and on the other hand, she deliberately showed her understanding and concern for her daughter-in-law.

Xia Hong nodded. There should be nothing wrong with An Xueying. He was relieved for a while, and then asked: "Then... what about the two guests at home? Are you not at home?"

Aunt Miao looked at Xia Hong and then at Guo Wei, so she had to force a smile and try to make up a lie: "It's true... something happened to go out."

"What's so strange about someone's son taking his mother out?" Mentioning those two people, Guo Wei's tone naturally couldn't get any better. It's time to go to the restaurant."

Xia Hong frowned and stared at Guo Wei: "How is it possible, stop talking nonsense!"

It is still possible to think that Xia's food is not to your liking, but it is absolutely impossible that it is "not rich enough".Even for breakfast, everyone is guaranteed to have at least a dozen main ingredients and side dishes such as milk, bread, butter, sausage, barbecue, jam, etc., not to mention lunch and dinner.

When there are few people, there are at least a dozen dishes including soup and side dishes. This is still a small number of people. If there are two important guests at home, the richness will be comparable to a full banquet!The richness and the level of the chef directly crush most ordinary banquets.

If you think that Xia's food is not rich, then I'm afraid you can only go to a high-end banquet, and if such a thing really happens, either your vision is too high, or you are just looking for trouble.

So of course Xia Hong didn't like to hear Guo Wei's words. He knew that Qu Li was not that kind of person, so it could only be understood that Guo Wei was looking for trouble.

Guo Wei also felt that what she said was inappropriate, so she shut her mouth and didn't make any more noise.But of course Guo Wei hoped that Xia Hong would not pay too much attention to Qu Li's mother and son, but to pay more attention to himself and Xia Mochen around him.But if he said these words directly, he was afraid that he would be disgusted by Xia Hong, so he kept holding back and didn't say anything.

The reality that can be placed in front of us often backfires.Guo Wei wanted to turn this page quickly, and Xia Hong hurried back to his room, went to the study, etc. In short, don't think about Qu Li and their mother and child, but Xia Hong just didn't want to turn this page easily.

"They didn't tell you where they went?" Xia Hong asked Aunt Miao.

Aunt Miao shook her head in embarrassment: "No...the master and wife are not at home, I am just a servant, and there is no need to report to me where the guest is going..."

What Aunt Miao said made sense, but Xia Hong still frowned tightly, and couldn't help muttering to himself: "...There is no reason to go out without saying a word."

Seeing that Xia Hong has been entangled in this matter, Guo Wei became a little anxious and winked at Aunt Miao.

Aunt Miao hurriedly said: "Ah... maybe, maybe the second young master just felt that mother was bored staying here every day, so he took her out for a walk, and she should be back later."

The title "Second Young Master" suits Xia Hong quite well, and Xia Hong's brows slightly stretched, he nodded and said, "Well, what you said makes sense, if Hao Hao didn't take her out, she would stay at home every day, indeed. It's quite boring. Well, when they come back, you go to the study and tell me."

"Hey——" Aunt Miao nodded, but she felt extremely embarrassed in her heart. It was impossible for him to come back. What did you tell him?
