Chuan Shu Qi Leng: I own a department store

"But having said that, it's not a small matter that you have no hope of promotion, right? Have you figured out how to explain it to Uncle Tao and Aunt Zhu?"

Taomanman shrugged nonchalantly: "It just disqualified me from running, but it didn't say that I would definitely be elected. What kind of job is it for someone who can work as a military doctor in the clinic of the Beijing Military Region? Even if I am not disqualified, I will lose the election. The possibility is very high, so it’s not a big problem.”

At this point, Xu Wanning's guilt finally eased a little.

"Speaking of which, I've been back to Beijing for so long, and I haven't even visited my uncle and aunt at home. Manman, when did you go home? Help me ask my uncle and aunt when they are free. I'll take Song Han Jinchu to visit. Come visit.”

"Okay, no problem." Taomanman said, "I'll go home and ask later."

In the kitchen, Xu Maoyan was busy pounding garlic.

At this moment, there was only one thought in his mind.

The person cooking today is not Aning, so he has to eat one less bowl of rice.

Xu's mother didn't pay attention to her son's petty thoughts. She glanced at the two people chatting happily in the living room and asked, "What do you think of Manman's kid?"

"It's good. I can play with my little sister, and I can think of my little sister. In addition, I have a relationship like Tao Bo, so I'm not afraid that they will fall out again."

"That's it?" Xu's mother asked dissatisfiedly: "I'm asking Manman about the child herself, not about her relationship with Aning."

Xu Maoyan put down the stone pestle in his hand, thought about it seriously, and then said: "Her medical skills are very good, and she has enough patience with patients. In terms of personality, although she is a bit careless, sometimes she can easily offend people if she speaks too loudly. She doesn’t have the pretense of ordinary lesbians, so it’s not tiring to get along with her.”

"pretty good."

"That's it?" Xu's mother rolled her eyes at Xu Maoyan, "Okay, okay, you can go out, I'll get annoyed when I see you!"

Xu's mother pushed her son out of the kitchen, "You go chat with Aning Manman for a while."

After Xu Maoyan went out, Tao Manman had already stood up and said goodbye to Xu Wanning.

"What happened today must have reached the ears of my dad, the old man. I have to go back and talk to him, lest he rush to the bathroom to deal with me in anger."

"I'm going to say hello to aunt and then leave."

Xu Wanning took Tao Manman's hand, "How about I go back with you? I can also explain it to Uncle Tao."

"Oh no, I can handle it myself."

Tao Manman patted the back of Xu Wanning's hand: "As I said, this matter has nothing to do with you, so you don't have to feel so guilty."

Xu Maoyan came out and happened to hear the conversation between the two.

Thinking that it was his little sister who was causing the trouble, he offered to send Taomanman home.

Taomanman was stunned for two seconds and said hesitantly: "Brother Xu Wu, will this be too much trouble for you?"

Xu Maoyan had already taken his coat off the coat rack, "Let's go."

Taomanman followed him up and down.

In any case, Brother Xu was going to take her home. Although it was only a few minutes' walk from Xu's house to hers, she couldn't let go of the opportunity to be alone.

"Brother Xu Wu..."

Xu Maoyan looked down at the dwarf who only reached his shoulders, and said in a calm tone: "Don't call me Brother Xu Wu anymore."

"You're in Xu's house. If I don't call you Brother Xu, what will you call me?"

This title sounds really strange.

"Just call me by name."

"Then let me call you Brother Maoyan, okay?"

"Yeah." Xu Maoyan responded lightly.

Speechless all the way.

Taomanman did not dare to find a topic to chat with Xu Maoyan.

When they were alone together, Brother Maoyan was like an ice cube. He could freeze her into ice as soon as she opened her mouth. It was better for her not to speak.

I met many people walking along the way, and they were a little surprised to see Xu Wanning and Tao Manman walking side by side.

"Manman, why are you walking with Mao Yan today? You two are..."

"No, no, Aunt Sun." Tao Manman waved her hands repeatedly: "Brother Xu went to my house to see my dad for something, we were just along the way."

"So that's it." Aunt Sun understood, but she still stared at the two figures for a while: "Don't tell me, you two are quite a match."

Taomanman immediately blushed.

She subconsciously looked at Xu Maoyan, but saw that he didn't even look at her from the corner of his eye. She didn't know whether he didn't hear Aunt Sun's words, or she felt that there was no need to give any reaction at all.

"Aunt Sun, let's go first. Goodbye."

Soon, we arrived at Tao's house.

Sure enough, as soon as Tao's father saw Tao Manman, he cursed him.

Taomanman lowered his head, not even daring to express his anger.

Xu Maoyan stood in front of Tao Manman at the right time.

"Tao Bo, speaking of which, it's not Manman's fault. It's my little sister who caused the trouble."

"A-Ning is back?" Mother Tao's delicate eyebrows wrinkled slightly, her tone mixed with dissatisfaction: "What does this have to do with An-Ning? Did she make Manman drink?"

"No." Xu Maoyan explained the whole story, and then added: "A Ning only knew that Manman liked chocolate, so she gave Manman all the chocolates she had always treasured. But she didn't expect that Manman didn't drink well. I just ate a few chocolates and got drunk.”

"Yes, yes, I don't blame An Ning for this. Besides, An Ning was always with me when I was drunk and dizzy, and I didn't go back until I was completely sober. It's all Bai Ya's fault, yes. She reported me to the director because she didn't like me."

Tao's mother glanced at Tao Manman: "You have done something wrong and you are still justified? Do you know how rare this opportunity for promotion is? If you miss it this time, you may have to wait for several more years."

"My colleagues are all excellent, but it doesn't mean that I will definitely be rated."

"Have you learned to talk back?"

Seeing that things were developing in an uncontrollable direction, Xu Maoyan was about to persuade Tao's mother again, but was stopped by Tao's father.

"Maoyan, come with me to the study. I have something to tell you."

In the study, Tao's father placed a document in front of Xu Maoyan.

"Look at this."

Xu Maoyan looked at it carefully and already had a general understanding.

He was about to speak when he saw a familiar name at the signature.

His pupils shrank suddenly, and his voice was full of shock: "Lin An? Is he..."

"It's what you think. This was handed in by Chief of Staff Shen, and Lin An has already signed up."

"Do you have any ideas?"

"I have to go back and tell Aning to stop Lin An. This mission is too dangerous, he can't..."

"Xu Maoyan."

"Yes!"

Father Tao tapped his knuckles lightly on the table, "That's not what I want to ask."
