Chapter 208

The atmosphere in the living room was very stagnant.

Gu Yan and Wen Yi sat on the sofa in the middle.

On the left and right side sofas, there were twin daughters sitting on one side, and Lu Man, the boy who came to the door, sitting on the other.

"Cough cough."

Gu Yan stretched out his hand to the coffee table, and pushed forward the edge of the fruit plate: "It's hot, eat some fruit."

"Thank you Uncle Gu."

Lu Manban sat there upright, and after saying a word, he didn't make any further moves.

"Is your father's business doing well in the first half of the year?"

"Fortunately."

"Does your mother often run around that artificial lake in the morning?"

"I'm still going."

Then there was another silence.

Gu Jiaer sat on Gu Lingyi's lap and leaned in her arms, being hugged by her own sister, the more she listened to the awkward conversation between the two, the more anxious she became.

"What's going on, brother, hasn't he become eloquent during this period of time, his skin is thicker than the city wall." Gu Jiaer yelled anxiously, "Now is the critical time to lose the chain and be beaten back to his original shape?"

She struggled under her elder sister Lingyi's hug, but Gu Lingyi hugged her younger sister even tighter.

"Be honest, don't move around, Jiaer."

Gu Lingyi said with a flat mouth.

If my brother and father are so stiff, let's be stiff, and we can't let my sister take advantage of the situation to do unnecessary things.

They don't need to heat up the atmosphere!

I hope this is a normal meeting between the neighbors of the elders and the younger generation... maybe.

"Lingyi, let me go."

Gu Jiaer almost bit her sister Ling Yi's ear: "Because my parents are watching my brother, I moved the snacks for the two of us to the second floor."

"oh oh."

Upon hearing this, Gu Lingyi immediately let go of the arms that held her sister.

Gu Jiaer went around behind the sofa and tiptoed to a corner. Her mother didn't notice her small movements, so Gu Jiaer gently lifted two large plastic shopping bags.

However, the rustling sound of plastic bags rubbing against each other was clearly audible in this living room where the air was almost still due to silence, no less than the noise of beating gongs and drums.

"Gu Jiaer."

Wen Yi turned around and called out the full name of the youngest daughter.

"What did you buy in these two bags? Huh?"

Gu Jiaer stayed where she was, smiling awkwardly.

Wen Yi saw that the two bags were stuffed to the brim, with the corners of the chocolate box protruding from the opening.

"What did mother tell you? Did you ignore it?"

"elder brother--"

Gu Jiaer whispered for help, looking at Lu Man with bitter eyes.

"That... Aunt Wen, I'm sorry."

Lu Man hurriedly said: "I haven't been here since I went to middle school, and it's the first time I've officially come here. I just wanted to buy some gifts for Ling Yi."

Wen Yi's mind was active, she walked up to Gu Jia'er, saw that the bag was full of the daughters' favorite snacks, and knew, how could this be Lu Man's idea, the little daughter must have wanted to eat it herself.

"You really don't let go of any chance." Wen Yi looked at the nervous little daughter, Gu Jiaer admitted she was wrong, and lowered her little head cowardly.

"I'll settle the accounts for you after your classmate leaves."

Wen Yi laughed and said: "Let's put it here first, the guests are still there, so let's use the gifts brought by them."

"Oh……"

"Don't be dejected. For Lu Man's sake, mom won't confiscate your snacks this time."

"Really?" Gu Jiaer resumed her smiling expression, "Mom is so kind! I love you!"

"It's okay, it's okay, I have already graduated from high school, and I have become a big girl, and I am still so naive."

Wen Yi glanced at the other things that Lu Man brought, the wine and tea that he gave to Gu Yan were of high value.The two sets of skin care and cosmetics for her, La Mer and SKⅡ gift sets, cost a lot.

Even though Gu Lingyi and Gu Jiaer had already heard about it beforehand, Wen Yi still felt a little unbelievable that Lu Man had started a profitable business in her alma mater, Binhai Normal University.

She also knows about Lu Man's family conditions, a tepid individual merchant business, ordinary working class, take out a bottle of face cream from the gift box he gave, it is a month's salary for a normal small shop employee, if there is no Lu Man With a full extra income, he would definitely not pick such an expensive gift to pay a visit.

But Wen Yi recalled Lu Man's appearance when she was a child. She also saw the scene of a half-grown kid in elementary school leading her two daughters out to play. She still vividly remembered it, as if it was just yesterday.

Wen Yi still feels a little unreal for such a boy next door to suddenly grow up and even have a lot of capital accumulation.

"It's the same with your uncles and aunts."

Wen Yi said politely: "You are not allowed to bring anything with you next time, or Auntie will directly block your door, and simply won't let you in."

"And next time?" Gu Yan almost choked on his own saliva, he subconsciously glanced in Lu Man's direction.

It happened that Lu Man was also looking at him.

The Adam's apples of the two men moved, and they looked away in unison.

Wen Yi looked amused, a husband of his own, who is powerful outside, can talk impromptu with politicians, but when faced with his daughter's male classmates, he was dumbfounded, and he dared not let go of his back. .

And the other one is his daughter's male classmate. According to the youngest daughter, he is humorous and well-mannered among his peers.Now he is not as open as he was when he was in elementary school. Although he is indeed well-mannered, sitting with Gu Yan only leaves him staring.

"There is still some time before dinner time. The nanny is also cooking, and it's not ready yet." Wen Yi looked at the clock at home, and thought to himself, don't let the two of you just sit around. If there is no opportunity, they can chat It's just a joke too.

"Gu Yan, at this point in time, shouldn't you make a few phone calls to arrange the factory's night logistics?"

Wen Yi gave her husband a look: "Why is there no movement today?"

"Well, yes." Gu Yan heard this, and immediately got up, "I'll go upstairs to make a phone call, so don't disturb you—Wen Yi, call me again when you're eating."

"Go ahead."

She gave her husband a reasonable reason to run away, and Gu Yan got the order immediately, and went upstairs in a hurry.

Gu Jia'er and Gu Lingyi looked at each other, and felt that once Dad left, the atmosphere suddenly became less dignified, and the air flow became much more joyful.

The aura of silence between the two of them just now made Gu Jiaer feel embarrassed to speak up.

"elder brother."

Gu Jiaer was so excited that she ran to sit sideways on the armrest of the sofa where Lu Man was sitting, and stared at Lu Man closely with a smile.

"Do you want a smoothie, or ice cream?"

"You rest, I won't eat anything." Lu Man seemed to be relieved, and his tone was much more relaxed.

"Then I'll pour you some water."

Gu Jiaer shook Lu Man's arm: "What to drink?"

Lu Man's enthusiasm for this girl was a bit overwhelming, it seemed that after Gu Jia'er returned home, she became more lively in her own home court.

There was also the future mother-in-law, Wen Yi, looking at him and Gu Jiaer with a smile on her face.

"I'll drink whatever you drink."

"Then let's make cold tea, jasmine tea, I asked the nanny to store a lot in the refrigerator yesterday!"

After Gu Jiaer finished speaking, she ran to the kitchen with small steps.

As she walked away, there was also a voice of support to her elder sister Gu Lingyi.

"Lingyi, get me a cup with a better pattern."

Gu Lingyi looked at her younger sister Jiaer's busy back, and inadvertently pursed her mouth.

"The road is full."

At this time, Wen Yi said to Lu Man with a meaningful smile on his face.

"You probably haven't seen Jia'er at home, what's it like usually."

"She never serves tea and water at home."

Wen Yi's voice was soft, with a touch of emotion as a mother.

"But when you are here, she becomes busy, like a little daughter-in-law."
