Chapter 14 I want to eat roast duck

Watching Jiang Lin enter the school.

Jiang Hong let out a breath, and the circles of his eyes were slightly darkened.

He only slept for an hour at most last night. To be precise, the combined sleep time of these two days did not exceed three hours.

But now the mental state is very good, it seems a little excited.

He looked at Xu Wan.

"Then the two of us are..."

Xu Wan also stretched her waist. She has been sleeping for about five or six hours a day all year round, so a slight sleep loss doesn't really affect her too much.

"How about we find a place to sleep first?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly realized that the words seemed a bit ambiguous, and her face turned slightly red.

"No...I mean...just, just sleep seriously and catch up on sleep."

"Don't think too much."

Jiang Hong:?
What are you thinking about?
Isn't it just sleep?

Seeing Jiang Hong's innocent expression, Xu Wan blushed again, feeling that her explanation seemed a bit redundant.

"I... I won't sleep for now, let's go to sleep at night. But then again, you said you have dinner together at night, where are you going to eat?"

"Cheap Square?"

Xu Wan opened her mouth, but didn't speak for a long time.

Glancing at him a few more times, he took a deep breath.

"Actually... there is something I didn't tell you, mainly because I really didn't find a chance to tell you along the way, and I don't know how to say it."

"So you...you decide."

Jiang Hong didn't know why.

"Decide what?"

Xu Wan lowered her head and unlocked her phone, and showed Jiang Hong a location sharing message.

within twenty kilometers of them.

Remarks show: Mom.

Jiang Hong was stunned for a moment, and his breathing quickened involuntarily.

"You, your parents are in the imperial capital?"

Xu Wan nodded.

"I, I only found out when I was on the road."

"When I first said that I would come to the Imperial Capital, I really wanted to have an authentic Imperial Capital Roast Duck together."

"I didn't expect my mother to send me a message."

"It may be because I haven't been home for a long time. In the past few months, my mother has often found various reasons to chat with me..."

"I, I feel now, that maybe it's time for me to go home."

"She told me that my dad was invited by an old customer to come to the imperial capital to do a Buddha jumping over the wall."

"I'm waiting for all the ingredients to be in place, so I will temporarily live in the imperial capital for about a week. This is really a coincidence..."

Jiang Hong was silent for a while.

His eyes were still on her body, and he didn't know where his thoughts had drifted.

should come...

still coming...

"So, it's up to you to decide. If you, you want to meet them, I'll ask my dad to make me a roast duck."

"You come home with me to eat at night, just treat it as a meeting with your parents."

"If you're not mentally prepared, I won't make it difficult for you...but I, I may have to go home first, let's have dinner with Linlin tomorrow."

"If they are still in Shanghai, they are very far away from me, and if I don't go back... maybe I can deceive myself a little bit."

"But now, it's so close, and such a big thing happened again, I think it's a bit, a bit too wrong for me not to speak clearly with them."

Xu Wan's voice trembled slightly.

It's not that she doesn't want to go home. First, she really doesn't know how to face her parents' positive attitude to urge her to get married. Second, she is too busy with work.

just now.

She has already obtained the certificate with Jiang Hong, and she is only a stone's throw away from her parents.

never go back...

From any point of view, it is wrong.

"It's been two years, then...they are my parents after all...they have always cared about me, I know they don't really care if I bring my boyfriend back, they just want to see me, why are you urging me to get married? Those who urged marriage are not important anymore."

"Suddenly, I miss them very much."

"What's more, this time, I can bring such a good old, old...man home."

She struggled for a long time, but still didn't say the word "husband".

I'm a little ashamed...

But Jiang Hong already understood what he meant.

Jiang Hong closed his eyes and gritted his teeth slightly.

Anyway, sooner or later! !
No matter how entangled and delayed I was, I had to face Xu Wan's parents.

He stretched out his trembling big hand and gently squeezed Xu Wan's small hand.

Xu Wan's little hands were not as restless and tense as they were the first time.

Instead, he held it back gently, interlocking his fingers.

Then, he looked at Jiang Hong eagerly.

In all fairness, she very much hoped that Jiang Hong would go home with her, after all Jiang Hong had become the most important part of her life.

But she didn't want to put too much pressure on Jiang Hong.

Jiang Hong made a difficult decision.

"Okay, I'll go home with you."

Although Xu Wan didn't appear particularly excited, Jiang Hong could tell that Xu Wan's eyes suddenly brightened.

The smile is very bright.

Xu Wan held him tightly with one hand, and dialed her father Xu Haozheng's phone number with the other hand.

This is also the first time in two years that she called his father.

The call was answered almost instantly.

But there was a long silence on the phone.

Xu Wan couldn't open her mouth for a moment, maybe because she wanted to say too much, or maybe because she was too timid to be close to her hometown.

Want to say: I'm sorry, Dad, I haven't been home for two years...

I want to say: Dad, it's my fault, I shouldn't play childish temper, I should take my boyfriend home earlier...

I want to say again: Dad, I took him home...

But thousands of words were choked in his throat.

call……

Seeing Jiang Hong's encouraging expression, the circles of her eyes turned red little by little.

No matter how round the moon outside is, it will not be round at home after all.

Thousands of words come together in one sentence.

"Dad, I want to eat roast duck."

On the other side of the phone, one could clearly hear a sound of vigorously inhaling and being suppressed.

Then, Xu Haozheng's trembling voice was full of vigor.

"Hey, let's go home and eat tonight."

hang up the phone.

Xu Wan felt that a big rock finally fell to the bottom of her heart.

After a moment of silence, she raised her head and completely calmed down.

"We still have one more day, where are we going to play?"

Jiang Hong hesitated for a moment.

"After all, it's my first visit. I, I can't go empty-handed, can I buy something...?"

Xu Wan said.

"Jiang Hong, you really just treat it as an ordinary family gathering, don't be so nervous, there is nothing missing at home, as long as you go."

"To be honest, with my dad's character, it might make him happier if you go there empty-handed than if you carry big and small bags..."

Just as she was talking, her phone rang suddenly.

It's Secretary Xiaowen.

If it wasn't something urgent, Xiaowen wouldn't call her at this time.

Xu Wan's face tightened slightly, and she answered the phone.

This call lasted for half an hour, and you could tell from the tone that something happened to the company. The situation was quite tense and needed to be dealt with immediately.

Xu Wan hung up the phone and entered a location on the GPS.

"Jiang Hong, take me to this cafe, I have some work to do."

"I can't play with you today. Find a place to spend the day by yourself. Come pick me up at night, and let's go home for dinner together."

"I remember you mentioned to me that you have a few friends from the imperial capital who want to get together, you can..."

It wasn't because of any secrets in her work that she wanted to distract Jiang Hong.

It's just that Xu Wan is used to being alone when she is working.

Someone around her will distract her, because she always wants to take care of the other person's emotions, and her efficiency will be reduced by at least 20.00%.

If it was Jiang Hong...

Then she gets even more distracted.
