The time of the city

Chapter 20 You have to be good

It was almost time for dinner when Ni Jiamu came back. He was the same as before, with no changes. Mo Yu peeked at her several times, but couldn't see the expression he had last night on his face. Mo Yu felt relieved. It seemed that Ni Jiamu was just trying to scare her and would never take her abroad. He also thought she was troublesome.

At the dinner table, everyone was eating quietly, with only the sounds of chopsticks hitting bowls and chewing.

"I've almost finished your travel documents. Some of them will take a few days to arrive. Once everything is ready, you can go abroad with me."

Mo Yu looked at Ni Jiamu in confusion. He was still the same, so calm and composed. He elegantly buried his head in his food and didn't respond to Mo Yu's gaze at all.

"Amu, didn't Xiaoyu say she couldn't go abroad? Why did you go to help her get the documents?" Shang Xue was puzzled.

"She wants to go abroad with me," Ni Jiamu put down his chopsticks. "Going abroad can give her the best education, and it can also allow her to study with peace of mind without thinking about those messy things, right?" After saying this, he glanced at Mo Yu meaningfully.

Mo Yu knew that the mess Ni Jiamu was talking about was about his relationship with Gu Bai. "Mom and Dad, I really don't want to go abroad. Can you please persuade my brother?" Mo Yu had no choice but to put her hopes on Shang Xue and Ni Yuantang.

"Jiamu, since Xiaoyu doesn't want to go, don't force her. She is doing well in the country." Ni Yuantang said.

"Mom and Dad will go. I'm done eating and will go back to my room."

Mo Yu grinned at Ni Jiamu's departing back. She didn't believe that he could kidnap her and take her abroad.

In the evening, Gu Bai took advantage of the time when the barbecue restaurant was not busy to call Mo Yu. "Xiao Yu, the boss said that I have performed well recently, so he rewarded me with a red envelope and gave me a day off this weekend. Let's go on a date." Gu Bai spoke in an extremely cheerful tone, and Mo Yu could feel his joy on the other end of the phone.

"Okay, but won't you be tired?"

"Yes, but I won't be tired anymore when I see my Xiaoyu. Let's meet at the small square on the weekend." Later, someone came to the barbecue restaurant, and Gu Bai hung up the phone, but Gu Bai's call did make Mo Yu feel a lot better.

Nan Feng took several deep breaths before dialing the number. "Grandpa, it's me. I've finished my studies ahead of schedule and achieved top marks. Can I return home now?"

"My A Feng is indeed the best," Qiao Zhengrong's old and powerful laugh came from the other end of the phone. "You can come back now. Grandpa is old too, and I'm just waiting to pass on the Qiao family to you."

After getting Qiao Zhengrong's permission, Nan Feng was so excited that he couldn't speak clearly. "Thank you... Thank you, Grandpa. I'll book a flight back right away."

"Nan Feng, do you really want to go back to China? You are very outstanding. If you can stay here, you will have a bright future." The speaker was an American boy who had a good relationship with Nan Feng. He had known for a long time that Nan Feng wanted to return to China, but he still wanted to persuade him again.

"Thank you, Mike. I have to go back. The person I love is in China. I have become better so that I can see her earlier. She is still waiting for me." Nan Feng took out a photo. It was taken when the two of them were in the orphanage.

"Xiaoyu, I'll be back to see you soon. I'm so happy."

The weekend arrived, and Mo Yu woke up surprisingly early, even earlier than Wang Ma. She didn't know how to put on makeup, so she just scribbled a few strokes on her face, making it look like she had no makeup on. Then she found a random blue dress in her closet and put it on.

But even so, Mo Yu is still very beautiful. Her beauty does not need to be embellished with anything. She is beautiful just standing there.

Mo Yu went downstairs after cleaning up. Aunt Wang was preparing breakfast, and Ni Jiamu was indeed sitting on the sofa reading a book. Mo Yu really didn't understand why he had to work so hard when he was already good enough. Maybe he was what people called the king of involution, too involutionary.

"Xiaoyu, why did you get up so early today? Aunt Wang will prepare breakfast soon." Aunt Wang said with a smile to Moyu who was standing on the stairs.

Ni Jiamu heard Wang Ma's voice and glanced towards the stairs. "Are you going out?"

"Oh, I have something to do and need to go out for a while." Mo Yu felt a little guilty.

"After breakfast, do you want me to take you there?" Ni Jiamu asked seriously after closing the book.

"No, I don't want breakfast. I'll leave first. Thank you, brother." Mo Yu ran out of the house with her bag on her back. When she passed by Ni Jiamu, there was a faint scent of gardenia, which was refreshing.

After arriving at the small square, Mo Yu sent a message to Gu Bai, but he didn't reply, so Mo Yu found a shady place to sit and wait.

Before they knew it, it was noon, and Gu Bai still hadn't arrived. Mo Yu called several times, but Gu Bai didn't answer. It was the hottest time of the day, and Mo Yu's face was sunburned red, with beads of sweat on her forehead.

She ran out without eating breakfast, her stomach already protesting, growling loudly. Let's wait a little longer, Gu Bai must have been delayed by something, Mo Yu thought.

At the Ni family's dinner table, Shang Xue gently picked up some food for Ni Jiamu. "Amu, where's your sister? Isn't she still awake? Xiaoyu is such a lazy bum."

"She went out early in the morning. She might have gone out to play with Lin Xiao."

During the conversation, Ni Jiamu's phone rang. It was Qiao Mu. "Mom, I need to take a call. This guy must want to ask me out to play basketball again." Ni Jiamu answered the phone in the living room.

"Hey, what's going on?"

"Amu, guess who I saw?" Qiao Mu pretended to be mysterious.

"I don't care who you saw. If you don't want to tell me, hang up." Ni Jiamu has never been interested in these gossips. He guessed that Qiao Mu must have seen some beautiful woman again. He picked up the phone and prepared to hang up.

"Don't hang up, I saw your sister Mo Yu"

"She's out for something. You don't need to report to me if you see her. I'm not her housekeeper."

"She's your sister. This morning, I went to the teahouse in the small square to meet a friend and saw your sister waiting for someone. I didn't pay much attention. I played for a few hours and came out at noon. She was still waiting there. I guess she hadn't eaten yet. I was worried she would get sunburned."

"Why didn't you tell me earlier? I'm hanging up now. I'll settle with you later." Ni Jiamu hung up the phone directly, leaving Qiao Mu alone on the phone, saying "Hello, hello, hello". He really couldn't understand Ni Jiamu. One moment he didn't let him speak, and the next moment he blamed him for not speaking earlier. What a fool.

Ni Jiamu grabbed the clothes on the sofa and said to the restaurant, "Mom, I have to go out for something. Please take your time eating." He drove very fast and arrived at the small square in just over ten minutes.

After parking the car, he immediately saw Mo Yu squatting on the ground with her back to him. Her small figure was so adorable.

When Mo Yu went out in the morning, her hair was loose, but now she tied it up, probably because it was too hot.

Ni Jiamu really wanted to scold Mo Yu, but when he remembered that she hadn't eaten yet, he had to suppress his anger. He slowly walked behind Mo Yu, his tall figure looming over her.

"Brother, why are you here?" Mo Yu saw the shadow under her feet, looked up and found it was Ni Jiamu, and asked in surprise.

"I saw you on the way, come with me to dinner." This sentence seems to be an order, but the tone is gentle.

"Okay, brother." Mo Yu hadn't eaten since morning and was really hungry. Ni Jiamu was in a good mood today and was gentle to her. She didn't dare to spoil his fun, so she happily accepted Ni Jiamu's invitation.

They went to the nearest restaurant, and when the dishes were served, Mo Yu didn't care about her image anymore and started to eat voraciously. Ni Jiamu had just eaten and was not hungry at the moment, so he didn't eat much.

"You can't stand hunger. Why don't you eat? You're not a good boy at all." Ni Jiamu poured a spoonful of soup into Mo Yu's bowl.

"Thank you, brother. Why don't you eat? Is it because you see that I can't eat?" Mo Yu looked at Ni Jiamu innocently with her mouth full of food.

"I'm not hungry. Take your time eating. After you finish eating, go somewhere with me."

"Brother, can I go later? I have something else to do."

"Who were you waiting for? Gu Bai?" Ni Jiamu couldn't help but ask.

Mo Yu didn't say anything, but the expression on her face and her wandering eyes had already told Ni Jiamu the answer. "No matter who you are waiting for, you must come with me. Be good."

Mo Yu was ultimately unable to refuse Ni Jiamu.
