When they met again, the boss' eyes turned red, kissed her and said sweet words to her

Xu Nanyin was stunned for a few seconds, "Do you know my father?"

"I..." A trace of sadness flashed across Shen Wenjie's brows. He glanced at Wang Tong and Shen Wei beside him, but still shook his head, "I heard about it from a friend."

"Who?" Xu Nanyin looked at him anxiously. She wanted to know any trace of her father.

"I'm the parent of a student at Beicheng Middle School. I heard that your father is a very good teacher." Shen Wenjie said nothing more.

Xu Nanyin buried her head in eating, but her eyes slowly turned red.

Under the table, a hand gently grabbed her hand and interlocked their fingers. She turned her head and saw Pei Jingmo frowning and looking at her with gloomy eyes.

She forced a consoling smile and glanced at the braised prawns in the distance that she wanted to eat but couldn't get.

Pei Jingmo immediately grabbed the glass table top and turned the prawn over. Pei Muchuan, who was picking up the prawn with chopsticks, had a face as black as the bottom of a pot.

Pei Jingmo put on gloves and peeled four shrimps for Xu Nanyin in one go. He placed them on the small porcelain plate in front of her and coaxed her softly, "Eat it."

Shen Wei, who was sitting diagonally opposite, gritted her teeth secretly.

Wang Tong asked calmly, "Ms. Xu is so close to Jing Mo, she must be very talented, right? Where is she doing well? Unlike our Weiwei, who came back from studying abroad and messed around with some cosmetics brand, but didn't achieve anything..."

"Mom, the cosmetics I launched was the best-selling brand on the Internet a while ago."

The mother and daughter sang the same tune, openly criticizing and secretly praising.

By the way, I also want to drag Xu Nanyin down.

Xu Nanyin said calmly: "My highest diploma now is high school, and I haven't even graduated from college. Can I be considered excellent?" Sincerity is always the ultimate weapon.

Wang Tong and Shen Wei, mother and daughter, looked at each other, not knowing what to say for a moment.

You haven't even graduated from university yet and you're still so confident? Pei Muchuan was about to speak when Ye Qingrou's clear eyes swept over him. He coughed lightly and buried his head in his food.

Pei Jingmo's face sank in an instant.

Four years ago, Xu Nanyin was in her third year of university when she left Beijing. She had worked so hard for so many years to get into university, but she dropped out midway and didn't even get her diploma...

He glanced sideways at her calm profile, and when she noticed his gaze, she turned her head and smiled gently at him.

He opened his lips, and suddenly a difficult feeling welled up in his throat. He wanted to say something, but it felt like nothing he said would be right...

Whenever she thought of her father, she always felt regretful. In addition, Shen Wei and her daughter were very noisy. Xu Nanyin put down her chopsticks after eating a few bites of food and walked upstairs, wanting to hide in his room.

Pei Jingmo also put down his chopsticks and wanted to follow.

"You continue eating. I'll go make Xiao Xu a bowl of chicken and spinach noodle soup."

Ye Qingrou stood up and walked towards the kitchen, but suddenly stopped. "Mrs. Shen, I don't know what the situation is in your family, but in our family, we usually don't talk that much during meals."

Wang Tong's face froze when she looked at him with such clear eyes.

Is he disliking her noise? Or is he hinting at her lack of upbringing?!

Seeing Ye Qingrou enter the kitchen, Wang Tong sneered at Pei Muchuan and said, "I've heard everyone say that Mrs. Pei has a strange temper and is difficult to get along with. I didn't think so before, but now..."

She paused meaningfully.

Pei Muchuan had been planning to play golf with Shen Wenjie some other day. Upon hearing this, he scrutinized her with sharp eyes, "Who said that? Make me a list, and I'll call them one by one to find out how my wife has offended them to spread such rumors."

"My wife has the best temper in the world." Pei Muchuan said in a cold tone.

Wang Tong was stunned and the corner of his eye twitched.

Isn’t it said that Pei Muchuan, the playboy in his youth, had a very bad relationship with his wife?

Why did he say something bad about his wife just now? It felt like he was going to beat her up.

"Uncle Pei, these are of course all rumors! Mom, you are really something, how can you believe those nonsense!" Shen Wei said.

Pei Muchuan reluctantly gave up, his face sullen, and even ignored Shen Wenjie beside him.

"Tsk."

Pei Jingmo turned his head to look at him and shook his head. He had been watching this couple for more than twenty years and was becoming less and less able to understand them.

He put his chopsticks on the table, glanced at Shen Wei, a thin smile on his lips, and said lazily and sarcastically: "You'd better not come to our house for dinner in the future."

"I'm quite scared when I see you now. After all, you can get pregnant remotely."

Shen Wei froze as she picked up the food, her face flushing. She was now certain Pei Jingmo hadn't lost his memory. He was so vicious, yet he was only soft on Xu Nanyin, a woman who was nothing. Why did Xu Nanyin have that right?

Suddenly, she looked towards the door and saw a tall figure in a suit and tie walking in.

"Uncle." Pei Jingmo stood up first and walked towards him, showing a rare enthusiasm for others. "When did you come back? You didn't even say hello."

Ye Zheng had a handsome face, but because he always had no expression, he looked cold and indifferent.

"I just came back from abroad." He glanced at the living room and asked, "Where's your mother?"

"Kitchen." Pei Jingmo took the suit from his hand and hung it on the hanger.

Shen Wei's gaze wandered between Ye Zheng and Pei Jingmo. A hint of guilt flashed in her eyes, and she unconsciously clenched her hands.

Ye Zheng walked quickly towards the kitchen.

In front of the sink, Ye Qingrou's slender and beautiful figure was washing spinach. As if sensing something, she turned around, her eyes suddenly brightening, and a smile bloomed on her face. "Just got back?"

"Sister, I haven't come back to see you and Xiao Mo for a long time."

Ye Qingrou looked him over, heartache welling up in her eyes. She gently criticized him, "Why have you lost so much weight? Are you busy with work again and not eating properly?"

Ye Zheng smiled and shook his head: "How old am I? You still worry about me like when I was a child."

"You just need someone to keep an eye on you. You're working like hell. Haven't you eaten yet? I happened to cook a little extra."

Ye Qingrou divided the noodles in the pot into two portions and brought him a bowl. "Eat quickly."

Seeing that she was actually going to carry the other portion upstairs herself, Ye Zheng asked in surprise: "Sister, who is upstairs?"

"Xiao Xu, you'll know when you ask Jing Mo."

Ye Zheng's tall figure froze for a moment, and he nodded slightly, "Okay, I'll ask."

***

Second floor bedroom.

I closed the door, blocked out all the sounds, and finally it was quiet.

Xu Nanyin sat on the chair with her eyes closed for a while, then suddenly remembered something. She walked to the bedside table and opened the first drawer.

He said that he had sent her a lot of messages in the past few years. Could they have been sent from this phone?

After hesitating for a moment, she slowly pressed the power button.
