Forced into a flash marriage, the cold-faced CEO asks for kisses every day
Chapter 73 A Hongmen banquet invited by my mother-in-law?
In line with the principle of saying more is more wrong than saying more is good, Jiang Yun remained silent alone in the back row, just silently watching the lively evening in B City outside the window.
"Yunyun, are you usually busy with work?" Xu Min, who was in the front row, spoke calmly, taking the lead in breaking the silence in the car.
"I'm fine. I'm not too busy. Unless there are special circumstances, I can basically get off work on time every day." Jiang Yun replied quickly.
Compared with Lin Jianyang, her job is simply leisurely.
"Has Xixi ever come to B City to find you?"
Alarm bells rang in Jiang Yun's head.
Why does this question sound like a trap... Does her mother-in-law hope that her son has never come to City B to look for her, or does she hope that he has come? If she truthfully told her that she had come to see her, would she have any objection in her heart and feel sorry that her son was already so busy at work and had to spend a lot of personal time traveling between places?
For a moment, she couldn't decide how to answer this question, so Jiang Yun carefully chose to say half of it, "He came to City B to accompany me for a prenatal check-up."
This can’t really be a problem, can it? I won’t say specifically how many times I came here, but I only came to accompany him for prenatal check-ups. After all, he is the biological father of the baby in his belly, so it makes sense to accompany him for prenatal check-ups, right?
"Yeah, that's right. I work in City B, so going to City A for prenatal check-ups is too much trouble." Xu Min's words were plain, and there was no obvious emotion.
Jiang Yun still felt a little uneasy, "I will be able to go back to work in City A in September. I came to City B because of a temporary job transfer."
"Have Xixi contacted the obstetrics hospital in City A for you?" Xu Min continued to ask.
"Yes, we should have contacted her already." Jiang Yun nodded repeatedly, and then realized that people couldn't see her movements from directly behind.
"Well, I'm relieved then." Xu Min responded and stopped talking.
Jiang Yun breathed out silently, lowered her head and suddenly realized that she had turned into a sitting posture of an obedient primary school student, and felt funny.
It turned out that facing Lin Jianyang's mother alone was more stressful than imagined.
Jiang Yun's company is located in a bustling office area in the city center. In fact, it is not far from Tidal Road on the seaside of City B. Coupled with a slight traffic jam, it only took about 20 minutes to reach the destination ordered by Xu Min.
Jiang Yun followed Xu Min and got out of the red Bentley, staring blankly at a three-story bungalow on the roadside with the sea and sky in front of her. There is a well-kept green lawn next to the bungalow. There is a large horizontal stone tablet with bright lights erected on the grass. On it is written "Minji Private Kitchen" in five cursive characters. There was a small signature in the lower right corner, but Jiang Yun didn't take a closer look at it for a while.
So this is Min Kee’s only high-end Chinese restaurant in City B? Is it the one that made Xixi salivate that day?
The gentle sea breeze playfully blew away a strand of her long hair on her temples. Jiang Yun lowered her eyes and reached out to tuck her hair behind her ears. She mustered up the courage to follow Xu Min and walked into the bungalow through the open retro door.
It's okay, Jiang Yun. It's just one meal. Who hasn't had a good meal with anyone?
Even if Lin Jianyang's mother doesn't like her, as long as the condition proposed is not to give up the child, she can accept it more or less, and it's no big deal. As for Lin Jianyang himself... let it go, she is too strong-willed to be sweet. If she does not get the respect of his family and gives birth to a child in the future, the two of them may not be able to live well together.
After walking through the brightly lit lobby on the first floor and turning into the Chinese-style corridor on the side, Jiang Yun saw a Chinese-style wooden retro staircase in front of her. Along the way, she heard several male and female waiters passing by smiling and saying hello to her mother-in-law, and her mother-in-law smiled at them all.
Following the wooden staircase to the second floor, Jiang Yun's tense body was able to relax until she entered a spacious and bright private room with pure Chinese decoration.
"Sit wherever you want. I just happen to be in City B, so I thought I'd find a chance to chat with you. Don't be nervous." Xu Min put her clothes on the mahogany shelf on the side with a familiar smile, and invited Jiang Yun to take a seat with a smile. .
Jiang Yun showed a polite smile and looked around.
The table in the private room is a traditional Chinese round table, with about six or seven chairs placed around it.
She originally wanted to sit directly opposite her mother-in-law. There was a big table across the table, so the meal would be less stressful. As soon as he took a step forward, he suddenly felt that it was too deliberate for him to go around in a big circle to sit down, as if he was deliberately avoiding it. In the end, he was cruel and simply sat on the mahogany seat closest to him, which was Lin Jianyang. Mom's side.
Xu Min watched Jiang Yun sit down obediently next to her, with a hint of surprise in her eyes. She thought the little girl would hide on the other side in fear, wishing to stay as far away from her as possible.
Xu Min personally poured two small cups of tea on the mahogany tea table nearby. Xu Min placed another exquisite small teacup on the movable disc in the center of the dining table, and reached out to gently fiddle with the large patterned disc on the round table. , gracefully stretched out his hand and made a "please" gesture to Jiang Yun.
"Thank you, Auntie." Jiang Yun stood up quickly to thank her, carefully took off the teacup, and took a sip.
It is smooth in the mouth and does not have too much bitterness like the teas on the market. The tea is sweet and has a subtle aroma, and there is a hint of sweetness after swallowing.
"Does Yunyun have any taboos now?"
“I don’t like spicy food very much, but everything else is fine.”
After hearing this, Xu Min raised her hand and pressed a white button on the side of the table. Within a few seconds, a waitress wearing a cyan embroidered cheongsam entered the room with a smile on her face and respectfully leaned over to listen to her instructions.
"Package C, replace the tea with passion fruit lemonade, thank you." Xu Min whispered.
The waitress complied and walked out of the private room with her eyebrows lowered and she didn't even look at Jiang Yun from the beginning to the end.
Jiang Yun secretly sighed that her mother-in-law was really attentive. She didn't mention it specifically just now, but she knew that she couldn't drink too much tea or consume too many sugary drinks during pregnancy, so she deliberately switched to lemonade, which was relatively healthy.
She herself was a little embarrassed. She just drank a can of super sweet coconut milk for dinner a few days ago...
"It's just a home-cooked meal. I don't know your food preferences, so I just ordered the customized set meal here. You can tell me what you want to eat at any time and you can add more." Xu Min looked at the little girl next to him and suddenly showed a little struggle in his eyes. I thought she had a special dish she wanted to eat or had any special requirements, so I reminded her gently.
"No, no, it's just my first time eating here. I'm not used to it. Auntie, you're so polite." Jiang Yun waved her hands repeatedly.
Xixi, I'm so sorry. I'll come here to have a meal first and help you clear the way.
Xu Min took a sip of tea, smiled and nodded.
The two were relatively speechless for a while. Jiang Yun didn't show it on the surface, but actually she was digging her shoes with her toes in embarrassment.
What should she do, what should she talk to her mother-in-law? Talking about Grandma Xue or Lin Jianyang? Or should I ask about my mother-in-law's health and care about Uncle Lin's health?
They were silent for a while, then Xu Min cleared her throat and spoke first, "Yunyun, what do you think of Xixi?"
