The Pretender's Taoyaoyi Building

kitchen.

Mingtai turned the carrot into an object of venting, and chopped it off one by one.

After Mingcheng washed some of the vegetables, he came over and saw that the carrots on the cutting board were really horrible, "Why are you cutting carrots so hard? This cutting board is not a punching bag."

Mingtai put down the knife, and said angrily, "I'll help you cook, and you're still accusing me of working hard?" After speaking, he chopped again.

"What stimulated you?" Mingcheng couldn't stand it.

"I was bitten by a snake!" Mingtai didn't get any answer from Taoyao, and turned to Ah Cheng.

"Bite by a white snake?" Mingcheng probed, "I didn't hear that you have a girlfriend. When did it happen? Why did you get bitten without telling me? Broken love?"

"Frustrated and crazy!" Broken love, he not only lost his unrequited love, but he was about to lose his dearest brother sooner; he chopped everything with a carrot.

Mingcheng snatched his knife, with a look of distaste on his face, "It's okay, don't help, the more you help, the more busy you are, look at what you cut?" He thought about his masterpiece, "Go and study, don't you still have to take an exam? Well."

Mingtai is full of anger and has no place to vent, "Shouldn't you just study? Do you have to go to Hong Kong? I'm just wondering, can't there be a desk in such a big Shanghai?"

"Is it useful for you to shout at me?" Mingcheng felt that he was deliberately finding fault. "I can't make up my mind."

"Yes, you can't make up your mind, when will you be able to make up your mind? I have to find someone who will keep his word." Mingtai said more and more anger.

"Why are you losing your temper, young master?" Mingcheng also got angry, and put down the knife.

"You are only allowed to do it, and I am not allowed to say it?" Mingtai has always been unreasonable and merciless.

"What did we do? You made insinuations like this!" Mingcheng didn't want to be said by him again.

"You are traitors!" Mingtai stopped him with one sentence.

Mingcheng was startled, and immediately shouted, "Get out!"

"You think I want to stay here." Mingtai roared impulsively.

Mingcheng ignored him angrily, picked up the radishes he had cut and smashed them on the plate, stepped back a little distance, and treated him with silence.

Mingtai also withdrew some of his temper, and it took a while before he said, "I figured it out."

"What do you want to understand?" Mingcheng listened to him before answering him.

Mingtai muttered, "Isn't it just an exam? It's the same everywhere. I don't like to follow the steps." His voice calmed down, "Solve the problem, right?" Suddenly he drew a sharp blade from the knife holder, "Then cut the mess with a sharp knife!" rushed out of the kitchen.

Rao Mingcheng was half a beat too late to respond, "Alas—" and chased him out, "What are you doing, what are you doing, Mingrui is outside! Mingtai, what are you doing, don't be fooled!"

Mingtai had already walked through the kitchen with a knife and went straight to the hall.

"I don't know what nonsense is!" Mingtai raised his hand and threw the knife in his hand, inserting it into the Wendan on the coffee table.

The one who was reading the newspaper in Minglou just slightly raised his eyes and looked at the knife.

Mingtai stood behind the sofa, while Mingcheng stood behind him, staring at him closely.

Mingrui, who was nestled in Taoyao's arms, was naturally taken aback, but he didn't say anything.

"If you don't cook properly, why are you messing around!" Ming Lou remained calm and unmoved.

Mingtai saw that his trick had failed again, "I'm hungry!" and walked over, "I can't wait for the meal to be ready, I want to eat some fruit." Going around, sitting down, he picked up the Wendan, raised the knife in his hand, and dropped it neatly "Mingrui, little uncle will cut the fruit for you."

"Knife skills are good, cutting fruit is overkill." Minglou slowly looked away from the newspaper at this moment, and signaled Ah Cheng to continue cooking.

Mingtai pulled all Wendan away, and put the two pieces in front of Taoyao and Mingrui roughly, "I think so too, I want to buy a snake tomorrow, and peel off the skin to make snake soup!" A sharp blade "This is the knife I use, it's very handy!"

"Don't you like The Legend of the White Snake? You said you wanted to read it a few days ago. Why do you hate it like this now?" Tao Yao took the words, "Which White Snake was bitten by you? Tell me, sister-in-law, why was the staff officer killed?" She bit."

"He's just like this, he's the same in doing things and studying, he's not up to date." Ming Lou broke the stage beside him.

"Brother, you know me so well?" Mingtai looked at the couple squarely, "I've changed now, I know what persistence is!"

"Oh?" Ming Lou was surprised, "I didn't know that my little brother has made so much progress."

"Of course I have to make progress, otherwise how can I be worthy of the tuition paid by my elder brother and the earnest teaching of my sister-in-law!" Mingtai made up his mind.

Minglou put down the newspaper, "So, you don't need me to worry about this exam?" There was a pun.

Mingtai fixed his eyes on Taoyao, "Brother, you should think about your own affairs, and sister-in-law too, don't always try to test me!" Full of apology, "Mingrui, eat some fruit, I'm going to cook!" He picked up the knife and returned to the kitchen.

Minglou put the newspaper aside, picked up a piece of Wendan, and took a big bite.

"It's bitter." Tao Yao lightly mocked.

Minglou's originally calm expression revealed a smile, "Sweet."

Tao Yao shook her head: The pet brother mode is on again?

restaurant.

Mingrui felt that this meal was the dullest he had ever eaten. Dad, Uncle Cheng, mother, and little uncle all ate with their heads down, and no one spoke.

Tomorrow, he suddenly put down his chopsticks, and Uncle Ah Cheng also patted down the chopsticks. Mingrui was so frightened that he stopped and stared at the two uncles.

Mingtai told, "I want some soup." Seeing Mingrui's sensitive and nervous appearance, he restrained his seriousness guiltily.

Tao Yao turned the spoon over.

Mingtai served the soup and put back the spoon.

Ming Lou seemed to want to break the imminent silence, "How long will it take for the Asahi and Yomiuri news tomorrow afternoon?"

Tao Yao also filled a bowl and placed it in front of Ming Lou.

Mingcheng did his duty, "It will probably take a quarter of an hour, plus the reporter's questioning session, it will take about an hour to finish. Have you read the press release?"

"I've seen it." Minglou put down the bowl, glanced at his wife, and drank the soup.

Tao Yao also picked up her chopsticks again, ready to pick up vegetables.

Unexpectedly, Mingtai's chopsticks caught the eggplant together with her.

Both Minglou and Mingcheng saw it.

Tao Yao resigned.

"It's becoming more and more unruly." Minglou taught his brother a lesson: he can tolerate Mingtai being rude to himself, but he is not allowed to do this to his wife.

Mingtai was innocent this time, "Sister-in-law doesn't say anything, how do I know the goal is the same?" But he couldn't give Taoyao the chopsticks because she was his sister-in-law.

"Don't talk about him, the injury on the leg is still not healed." Especially when she kicked him again at noon.

Ming Lou sighed, "Then why don't you ask Dr. Su to come and have a look, Taoyao, you are his sister-in-law, and Ah Cheng and I are busy outside, you should pay more attention."

"She just rested today, so I just found out." Mingtai rescued Taoyao, "Actually, she's fine."

"Be careful when you go out in the future." Minglou sincerely cared, and opened up the voice of his favorite brother in the past.

Mingtai lowered his head and hummed lightly.

Mingcheng took out a box at this moment and handed it to him.

Mingtai turned his head.

Mingcheng looked at his elder brother, and indicated that Mingtai was really a gift from his elder brother.

Mingtai put down the bowl and chopsticks, picked up the box, and opened it: there was another watch at hand, and it was the exact same new watch that he had lost in the Japanese consulate, and he looked at his elder brother puzzled.

"It's for you. Didn't you drop the watch? I don't think you wear the one I gave you last time." Ming Lou said very naturally, "How can you go out without a decent watch?"

Mingtai lowered his eyes, staring blankly at the watch: Big Brother's pampering at this moment made him unable to calm down.

Ming Lou looked down at his expression, "What's the matter? Don't you like this watch? Don't tell me it's hot for another 3 minutes, and I'm starting to dislike it."

Mingtai still didn't speak.

"Try the length of the strap." Mingcheng also said softly beside him.

Put the lid on the Mingtai box, "Thank you brother, I'm done eating." Standing up, pushing the chair away, "Let's go back to the room first."

Mingrui also said that he had finished eating at this time, and Taoyao took him to wash his hands.

Minglou sat in his seat with his eyes closed.

Ah Cheng said softly, "Do you mean he will go tomorrow?"

"Notify Guo Qiyun that he will arrive at the designated place on time tomorrow. If Mingtai doesn't show up, he must complete the mission independently." Minglou made a backup plan at this moment.

Mingcheng looked at his expression, put down his chopsticks, "I'd better go to the room to see him."

"No need!" Ming Lou stopped, "If he wants to become a real agent, he must overcome all psychological obstacles to complete the task, otherwise, I will kick him out without hesitation." And the agent who is out of the game is trash.

The two brothers fell silent.

Tao Yao hugged her son and went upstairs.

late at night.

The mansion was silent, Axiu and Hu Ma didn't come back.

Minglou sat in the study, raising his wrist to look at the time.

Mingtai was in his room, turned off the lights and sat on the bed, holding a group photo of the three of them in the past, crying.

Mingcheng sat helplessly on the steps.

"Go to sleep, even if you can't sleep." Taoyao supported Ah Cheng with one hand, "Tomorrow will definitely be hard, so don't think about anything tonight, just close your eyes and sleep."

Ah Cheng closed his eyes, and it took a while before he got up, "You should also go to bed earlier."

"En." Tao Yao silently nodded.

After brewing ginseng tea, he walked in quietly and saw him staring at the group photo of the four of them in a daze.

"Why haven't you slept yet?" It was past one o'clock, and he thought she was asleep.

Tao Yao asked him to stop talking, sat beside him, raised her hand, and gently rubbed his temples, "How can the examiner be more nervous than the examinee? I'm afraid he will not do well in the exam, or he will do well in the exam!?"

Minglou took a deep breath, "What's your expectation?"

"I will get the good grades you hoped for." She said softly, "He is your younger brother."

Minglou stretched his arm through her armpit, and pulled her into his arms, "It's good that you are here." Only by being beside her can he relax a little bit.

"Are you really going to sit all night? Brother Ah Cheng is also sitting on the steps restless." She pressed against his chest and listened to the sound of his heartbeat. The famous aria that no one sleeps tonight; don't make me sing it, I can't sing it."

"What did Mama Hu and Axiu do?" Ming Lou changed the subject.

"All the things needed in the southern Anhui base area have been prepared. They are going to make a turnaround. Mr. Lin is very busy recently to transfer a new batch of grain." Tao Yao pressed his neck "I will be back in two days." She covered her mouth and yawned." If everything goes well tomorrow, the lone wolf will face tremendous pressure. I'm afraid the current cage may not be able to hold her, and Brother Ah Cheng needs to work harder to make her continue to think that she is good at acting; and in this way, you will not be able to tell Mingtai Concealing your identity, you don’t have to take this step if you want him to grow up, why let him know that you are a poisonous snake? This is not like your style; and Nantian disappears, who will take over the super high class? Do you think it will be It's Yoshimasa Fujita, that veteran agent who is very difficult to deal with."

"Go to sleep." He hugged her like this, "Don't think about anything."

Tao Yao leaned against him and closed her eyes, "How about adding us, mother and child, to the family portrait when Ming Hua is full moon?"

"When the elder sister comes back, we will take one picture first, and then we will take another picture when Minghua is full moon." He tightened his arms. "From now on, we will take one picture every year."

"Until we're gray-haired?"

"Until we're gray-haired!"
