you rely on me to like you

Back at home in City C, Nao Nao jumped up and jumped into Zhong Haochen's arms.

"Nao Nao has been staring at the sofa in your bedroom for the past two days, and I don't know what you're thinking?" Grandma pointed at Nao Nao:

"Did you say you missed Xixi?"

Zhong Haochen: "..."

Grandma wants to say, does she miss her brother?

"Can you rest tomorrow? I asked Aunt Jiang to go back and come back the day after tomorrow."

"En, good." Zhong Haochen agreed.

"What do you want for dinner? I'll make it."

"What are you doing? You are a man, how can you cook?" Grandma smiled, as if she had something to say.

"Grandma, who do you want to eat?"

"You know." Grandma said with a smile on her brows and eyes:

"I heard from Mu Mu that she also went on a business trip to City A? Have you two met?"

"Grandma, I... don't like Qing Mu, I've made it clear to her." Zhong Haochen was helpless.

He knew that when he returned home, he couldn't escape his grandma's questioning.

"It doesn't matter if you don't like Qing Mu. The relationship between men and women is not all about personal love. All love will become family love when they get married."

Grandma said earnestly and earnestly:

"Of course, grandma doesn't have to have Qingmu, as long as you like it, grandma likes it."

Zhong Haochen remained silent, and really wanted to say something to grandma:

"Not always."

But when the words came to his lips, he didn't say anything.

It's better not to let grandma know about liking men.

"Chenchen, grandma is getting old, and you are now 30 years old. Can grandma embrace her great-grandson when you are 31?"

"Grandma, there's no need to rush this matter." Zhong Haochen felt a little guilty, but there was nothing he could do.

"Then there is something, you should think about it." Grandma's tone was a little melancholy, as if the matter of holding her grandson made her feel very uncomfortable.

"what?"

"Nowadays you often travel between two places for work, and it's too much trouble to go back and forth. Why don't we go to City A and live with your parents and younger brother, what do you think?"

Zhong Haochen was taken aback for a moment, he didn't expect grandma's topic to change so quickly.

It's not that grandma hasn't mentioned this, but he refuses every time.

At that time, his work did not require such frequent business trips.

"Grandma knows that there is a gap between you and your parents. But after all, you are related by blood. No matter what, you can't be separated for a long time, right?" Grandma took Zhong Haochen's hand and patted it lightly:

"What's more, grandma is old and wants to live with her son and grandson and enjoy the blessings of her children and grandchildren."

"Grandma, I'm sorry, I didn't think carefully, it was my negligence." Zhong Haochen felt blocked in his heart.

Before, he only cared that he didn't want to be with his parents for a long time, but ignored his grandma's feelings:

"I will seriously consider this matter when the project I am working on is finished."

"Really?" Grandma was both surprised and delighted. She never thought that she could convince the eldest grandson so easily this time.

"En." Zhong Haochen nodded, secretly making a decision in his heart.

Lying on the bed at night, Zhong Haochen held Nao Nao in his arms, flipping through the books.

But after reading a few pages, I remembered Chi Xu's cute and handsome face and what grandma said.

In fact, it is not impossible to move to city A!

Thinking of this, Zhong Haochen picked up his mobile phone, looked at Chi Xu's circle of friends, and found that there was a new development two hours ago:

The most beautiful boy:

Other people's brother VS my family's brother.

Picture: on the left is a pile of snacks, on the right is a black font on a white background: where are you?

There is Lin Yiyi's comment at the bottom: brother, aunt said, your wish for brother cannot be fulfilled for you.But you can consider getting a younger brother for you!

The most beautiful son replied: The only child is very good, so don't bother my mother!

The corners of Zhong Haochen's mouth turned up unconsciously, a little envious of Chi Xu's way of getting along with his mother.

In just a few words, Chi Xu must be at home and probably very favored.

Also, he's so cute, who wouldn't like it?

Just as I was thinking, a message popped up on WeChat, it was a new friend.

Open it,

The other party sent a verification message: I am Pu Jin.

Zhong Haochen stroked Nao Nao's hand and paused.

The noise was unclear, so he licked his palm and signaled the host to continue.

Then, the other party sent a second message:

Why, your little boyfriend still restricts you from adding your old classmate WeChat?

The word "old classmate" made Zhong Haochen a little annoyed, he threw his phone aside and forced himself to read.

During lunch break on Monday, Zhong Haochen was running a program on the computer when a subordinate came over and said to him:

"Boss, someone is looking for it outside the door. It seems to be quite beautiful."

Upon hearing this, the surrounding colleagues who hadn't eaten in the cafeteria were surprised.

Zhong Haochen is notoriously indifferent, he is usually unsmiling, and even colleagues from other departments who come to confess their love are rejected by him without mercy.

At this moment, could it be some new beautiful colleague who couldn't resist the graceful and elegant demeanor of the boss?

Zhong Haochen was also taken aback, and only after walking out of the office did he see that it was Qing Mu.

"Brother Haochen, let's have dinner together? I happen to be here to do some business." Qing Mu didn't seem to be affected by the last time, with a smile on his face.

She wore a red low-cut dress today, light gold high heels, her hair was naturally scattered aside, and she exuded a lazy and sexy charm.

"En." Zhong Haochen nodded, and followed Qing Mu to leave.

Behind him, the voices of colleagues exclaimed.

"Damn it... the boss actually followed him?"

"Sure enough, even the boss can't resist such a beautiful woman."

Zhong Haochen didn't hear what the colleagues behind him said.

Qing Mu, who was walking aside, was happy in his heart.

She didn't believe it, tried every style, still can't catch Zhong Haochen's heart?

Zhong Haochen took Qing Mu to the third floor of a shopping mall near the company, a Sichuan restaurant.

"Brother Haochen, I'm not very good at spicy food, can you get me a glass of water? I might, I have to rinse it off." Qing Mu whispered softly without moving her chopsticks.

Zhong Haochen was stunned, but still politely called the waiter.

When eating, even though there was a bowl of water in front of him, Qing Mu still ate with sweat on his forehead.

Fortunately, her makeup is waterproof, otherwise it would be really embarrassing.

"If you can't eat spicy food, why didn't you say it at the beginning?" Zhong Haochen couldn't bear it, and took the napkin next to him to the opposite.

"Brother Haochen wants to eat. Of course I want to accompany you for a meal of Sichuan cuisine." Qing Mu took a big sip of water, barely suppressing the burning feeling in his throat.

"You don't have to do this." Zhong Haochen said helplessly.

Qing Mu was also the first woman he met who kept chasing after her.

After a pause, Zhong Haochen felt that it was necessary to speak more clearly:

"I have someone I like, so I won't like you. I'm sorry."

"What, what?" Qing Mu was cooking, when he heard the news, he looked up at Zhong Haochen in surprise:

"I, I haven't heard grandma say that."

"I didn't tell grandma, she didn't know."

"But, but..." Qing Mu didn't know what to say for a moment.

"I'll pay the bill, you... eat slowly." Zhong Haochen got up, strode to the front desk, paid the bill, and left the Sichuan restaurant.

Qing Mu looked at the table of extra-spicy Sichuan dishes in front of him, and at Zhong Haochen's disappearing back, suddenly felt aggrieved.

Arriving at the company in the afternoon, some good-natured employees would secretly observe Zhong Haochen, laughing at the place where he passed by, or they really wanted to go up to him and ask the boss about the girl who was looking for him for lunch.

However, no one has the courage to really dare to act.

When he was about to get off work, a subordinate came to Zhong Haochen to ask about work. He casually glanced at his computer and found that it was an introduction of a house.

"Boss, do you want to buy a house?" The subordinate asked curiously.

"Just take a look." Zhong Haochen closed the computer.

After his colleague left, Zhong Haochen turned on the computer again.

The address of the house above is only one kilometer away from A.

Shaking his head, Zhong Haochen felt a little bored.

Even if you really settle in City A, where is it not good to choose, do you have to choose University A?

But after looking at it, the house has a good layout and fine decoration. You only need to buy furniture, and you can move in with your bags.

When he came to City A for a business trip again, Zhong Haochen brought his grandma along with him.

Grandma misses her son and grandson, so there is nothing wrong with him bringing grandma here.

That night, Chen Ruobing happily cooked a table full of dishes, all of which were Zhong Haochen's favorites.

"Mom, you're really partial. When I come here, I get a big table of food. I usually go home on vacation, but I don't get this kind of treatment." Zhong Xicheng curled his lips, but his eyes were smiling.

In my impression, this is one of the few times when my brother comes to eat at home.

"Mom, don't go back to City C when you come here this time. In the past, you didn't want to settle in City A because you just missed those old neighbors, but now, there are not many people living in the old house." Mom came to live with her in City A.

"Yes, Mom, you can move here. We are usually busy with work, and we can't take care of you because we are far away." Chen Ruobing added quickly.

"Okay, okay, mom knows you are filial. Mom will wait for Chenchen to finish his work and settle the work, and then move here with my grandson. Do you think it's okay, Chenchen?" Grandma took the opportunity to ask her grandson. agree.

Zhong Haochen couldn't tell, it was his parents and grandma singing the oboe together.

But he had no room for rebuttal.

Originally staying in City C was also for grandma.Now that she is willing to come to City A, she naturally doesn't have much to say.

"Okay." Zhong Haochen responded lightly.

Zhong Zhuo and Chen Ruobing smiled happily, and grandma was also happy like something.

Only Zhong Xicheng, pouted, looked at his parents with pleading eyes:

"Dad, Mom, I don't ask you to treat me fairly after my brother comes here, but promise me, my room will still be my room, is that okay?"

"What nonsense are you talking about, kid? Are there not enough rooms in our house?" Chen Ruobing cast a reproachful glance at his youngest son, but couldn't hide the smile on the corner of his mouth.

In the evening, Zhong Haochen hugged Nao Nao and rested in the room specially prepared by his parents in advance.

Chen Ruobing was very attentive, and the layout of the room was almost exactly the same as that in City C.

But Zhong Haochen always felt a little uncomfortable, and his mood was also dull, an indescribably oppressive feeling.

Until, Chi Xu's circle of friends posted a selfie of him holding a kitten, with the text:

"My kitty, do you miss your brother?"

Zhong Haochen thought of the scene in the hotel where Chi Xu was sleeping on the floor, hugging his calf. After suppressing his mood for a day, he finally saw the light and felt instantly at ease.
