Mr. Dong Guo

Xie Zhenrou:

"After the famous family"

"Ladylike"

"The Cellist"

"Excellent atmosphere"

"Gentle and demure"

"……what are you writing?"

Meng Xiaoyan leaned over and snatched the paper that Guo Qiyu was constantly writing.

"Hey..." Guo Qiyu wanted to snatch it, but Meng Xiaoyan held it up high and watched it with half-closed eyes.

"Why are you writing this?" Meng Xiaoyan put down the paper and said with some dissatisfaction.

Guo Qiyu grabbed the paper, smoothed it carefully, and muttered to explain, "Let me think about it first..."

Meng Xiaoyan put his head on Guo Qiyu's shoulder, "What are you thinking, how can you praise her?"

Guo Qiyu acquiesced.

A chuckle came from behind, Meng Xiaoyan's voice was right behind his ears, and the warm breath made Guo Qiyu itchy, "Are you preparing a speech?"

Guo Qiyu glared at him, and then changed the subject, "Didn't you tell Cheng En to wash his hands and then come out, why have you been there for so long?"

With that said, he went straight to the bathroom.

After learning that he would not leave this morning, Meng Xiaoyan's behavior seemed to have relaxed a lot, and he was no longer so restrained and polite. Guo Qiyu didn't show it on the face, but secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

He hoped that Meng Xiaoyan would be mature and sensible, but he didn't want him to be alienated from him.

Contradictory and complicated emotions have always made him uneasy.

Meng Xiaoyan stood still, looked at the paper, took a photo, and sent it out.

In the evening, when they arrived at the restaurant, Meng Xiaoyan said something special, "It's only us tonight, Dad, you can relax a bit."

The implication is that there is no Meng family.

Guo Qiyu still couldn't relax, pulled the corners of his mouth stiffly, and stared straight ahead.

"She's here, I'll pick her up outside the door." Meng Xiaoyan said, then walked out.

After a while, Guo Qiyu saw Meng Xiaoyan coming in, followed by a woman.

When they walked in front of Guo Qiyu, Guo Qiyu suddenly realized that the words he wrote on the paper today could really be integrated into one person.

Xie Zhenrou stretched out her hand generously, with a gentle voice, "Mr. Guo, hello, I am Xie Zhenrou, and I often hear Xiao Yan mentioning you."

Guo Qiyu was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to hold it, "Ah, hello, I'm Guo Qiyu, the adoptive father of Xiao...Meng Xiaoyan."

"Sit down." Meng Xiaoyan said.

"Please sit down, Mr. Guo." Xie Zhenrou also retracted her hand from Guo Qiyu's hand gracefully.

Guo Qiyu felt that he had lost his composure, and sat down blushing.

Meng Xiaoyan asked in a low voice what kind of dishes Xie Zhenrou wanted to eat, then ordered the dishes and handed them to the waiter.

Xie Zhenrou noticed Cheng En, who was always quiet at the side, and greeted him kindly, "You are Xiao Cheng En, you are so cute!"

Cheng En called out obediently, "Hello, sister."

Xie Zhenrou is very good at talking, her voice is soft and soft, she doesn't talk much about herself, but she has been secretly guiding Guo Qiyu to speak.

"I heard from Xiao Yan that your life in W City must have been difficult, right?" she asked.

Guo Qiyu was stunned for a moment, then stopped his chopsticks, glanced at Meng Xiaoyan, and talked about some past events.

Xie Zhenrou seemed very interested and asked a lot of questions.

Meng Xiaoyan didn't speak much, and took good care of Cheng En all the time, as if he didn't notice Guo Qiyu's embarrassment.

Guo Qiyu had no choice but to recall by himself, and then answered slowly.

After a meal, everyone except Guo Qiyu was probably very satisfied.

After the meal, when standing at the door waiting for Meng Xiaoyan to pick up the car, Xie Zhenrou apologized, "I'm really sorry, Mr. Guo, our engagement banquet has been postponed, and it must have delayed your time. I'm sorry."

Guo Qiyu shook his head quickly, "It's okay, your performance is also very important."

Xie Zhenrou was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "Xiao Yan already told you?"

Guo Qiyu nodded.

Xie Zhenrou's eyes showed a little joy, "Yes, this performance is also very important, otherwise the engagement banquet would not have been postponed. Fortunately, Xiao Yan didn't blame me, and he didn't say trouble. Well, the engagement banquet can be held again if it is cancelled. , the opportunity is lost.”

Xie Zhenrou talked about how important her performance was, Guo Qiyu pursed her lips, not knowing how to answer.

When Meng Xiaoyan talked to him, he thought about it and thought it was reasonable. Now when the person standing in front of him kept emphasizing it like this, Guo Qiyu frowned, feeling uncomfortable.

"Actually, if Xiao Yan hadn't insisted on setting the engagement banquet on that day, maybe we wouldn't have met it," Xie Zhenrou said as if he hadn't noticed Guo Qiyu's dissatisfaction, "Now we can't help it. He backed down..."

"Miss Xie, haven't you asked Meng Xiaoyan how he feels?" Guo Qiyu interrupted Xie Zhenrou's complaint and questioned.

Xie Zhenrou was taken aback, and looked at the man who had been submissive all night but suddenly made an attack at this moment with some surprise.

"Mr. Guo, I think you have misunderstood. I have already said that the engagement banquet has been cancelled, and we can do it again. If the opportunity is missed, there will be no more." Yan is already an adult, he can think clearly."

"Then you just—"

"Father!" Cheng En rolled down the car window not far away and waved to them, "Here, come here!"

Xie Zhenrou smiled, "Mr. Guo, the car is here, let's go."

Guo Qiyu followed Xie Zhenrou, staring at her slender back, and the courage to question her just now seemed to be broken again.

After returning home, Guo Qiyu walked to Meng Xiaoyan's side after Cheng En fell asleep, expecting to love Ai Ai, but didn't know what to say.

Seeing that he hesitated to speak, Meng Xiaoyan asked, "What does Dad want to say?"

Guo Qiyu looked at him, lowered his head again, and opened his mouth halfway, not knowing how to speak. After thinking about it, he asked cautiously, "Xiaobei, don't you and Miss Xie like each other?"

Meng Xiaoyan put down the handkerchief in his hand and said, "I have no other feelings for her other than my partner. As for her, I don't know."

I think she thinks the same way, Guo Qiyu said in her heart.

But he still felt unwilling, "Why do you want to be together again if you don't like it?"

Meng Xiaoyan smiled and said, "Father is such a naive person."

Seeing Guo Qiyu glaring at him, he laughed again, "Well, you can be together if you don't like it, as long as you have a clear conscience for each other."

Guo Qiyu still felt awkward in his heart, but he didn't know how to express it. He was thinking wildly until the early hours of the morning before falling asleep in a daze.

Early the next morning, Guo Qiyu opened the refrigerator and poured out the last bit of milk to heat it up.

"Xiaobei, the milk is gone." He shook the empty milk box.

Meng Xiaoyan came over to open the refrigerator and counted it, "I haven't been to the supermarket for several days, and many things are gone."

"Are you going to buy it?"

Meng Xiaoyan looked at his watch, "I have a meeting this afternoon."

"It's okay, I can go by myself." Guo Qiyu said.

"Okay, I'll make a list for you later." Meng Xiaoyan took out another card from the drawer, "You take this. If Cheng En wants to buy anything, you can buy it for him too."

Guo Qiyu quickly declined, "I don't want it, I have money myself."

Knowing that he would say this, Meng Xiaoyan pointed to the words on the card, "This is the membership card of that supermarket. You can get discounts, and some products are also free. Just show it to the cashier and swipe it."

"It's not worthwhile for you to pay yourself." Meng Xiaoyan handed him the card, "And I have to deposit money in when I apply for the card. As long as you can deposit one hundred every month, the supermarket will refund you every month." You 10 yuan."

"I'll give you money again?!"

Guo Qiyu has already attracted all his attention by these insignificant bargains, "How much discount can I get?" He looked at the card, a little annoyed, "[-]% off? Not much less!"

Meng Xiaoyan said: "Junior members only get a 99% discount, and I'm already a senior member, and I get a 7.8% discount."

Guo Qiyu's eyes lit up, "Hey, that's quite a lot!"

In the afternoon, Meng Xiaoyan received a text message in the meeting room. The 0 credit card bound to the XX hypermarket membership card spent 16 yuan at 10:910.8 p.m., a total discount of 9.2 yuan.

Then Guo Qiyu called.

Meng Xiaoyan gestured, suspended the meeting, got up and went out to answer the phone.

Guo Qiyu's panicked voice came from over there, "Xiaobei, why are the things in this supermarket so expensive?!"

He just bought them one by one according to Meng Xiaoyan's list, and then bought some fruit thinking that his family was out of fruit, and then saw the bright numbers on the monitor at the cash register.

"I didn't buy anything," Guo Qiyu was still holding a bag of things, "Why did I spend nearly 1000 yuan?"

He had never spent so much money in a supermarket before, so he couldn't help feeling flustered.

"There are a lot of imported things on the list I gave you, which are more expensive." What Meng Xiaoyan didn't say was that he lied to Guo Qiyu about shitty discounts, monthly rebates, and membership points.

"However, if you think about it, if you spend so many things, you will definitely get a lot of points, and it also returns money every month. In fact, it only costs a few hundred dollars." Meng Xiaoyan patiently made up a story, "Or Very good deal."

"It's too expensive, it's too expensive..." Guo Qiyu still felt that it was expensive, and blamed himself in his heart for just looking at the list and not paying attention to the price when he was shopping.

"How much money will this cost?" he murmured.

Cheng En was happily eating a lollipop, and suddenly he pointed to the other side of the street, "How many! How many!"

Seeing that Guo Qiyu ignored him, Cheng En pinched the lollipop in his hands and pulled Guo Qiyu's clothes, "Dad, look at my sister, that sister!"

Guo Qiyu looked in the direction he pointed, and was shocked for a moment.

Xie Zhenrou was holding the hand of a strange man, talking and laughing, so close.

While talking, she was amused by something, and shyly kissed the strange man's lips.

The two were also making very intimate gestures without any scruples on the street. Guo Qiyu stared, and kept clenching the hand holding the phone so hard that his knuckles turned white.

"dad?"

"what?"

When Meng Xiaoyan yelled, Guo Qiyu came back to his senses, but kept staring at the intimate couple, "Why, what's the matter?"

"I just want to ask Dad what's wrong." Meng Xiaoyan laughed.

Guo Qiyu gritted his teeth and hesitated, "No, it's nothing, I'm hanging up, I'll go back tonight and talk about it."

He hung up the phone in a hurry, trying to catch up.

After walking a few steps, I heard Cheng En trotting behind, "Father, where are we going?"

Guo Qiyu stopped, glanced at the ignorant Cheng En, and sighed.

"Let's go home."

He wanted to chase after him to ask for clarification, but he didn't want to mess things up in front of Cheng En.

He decided to go back and have a good talk with Meng Xiaoyan this time.

The author has something to say: the last chapter was locked and changed, I hope I can pass it. (But I didn’t write anything! Fall! Convex)
