Redemption in the night

Chapter 68 The Ingenious Time Node

Here, Yan Yihang's Mercedes-Benz was parked on the road directly opposite the residential area. When he saw Zhou Shixian driving out, he was puzzled and worried at the same time, so he hurriedly called Mengshi.

As soon as the phone was connected, Yan Yihang couldn't wait to ask: "How is it? It's okay."

He didn't mention that he was still at the entrance of her community, nor did he say that he saw Zhou Shixian driving out just now.

Mengshi looked at the note on the call and was slightly taken aback.

In the previous contact with Yan Yihang, Yan Yihang never called her directly regardless of the occasion or time. Sometimes even if he wanted to chat with each other, he would ask Mengshi in advance if it was convenient.

But Mengshi immediately shook off the questions that popped up in her mind, and immediately replied: "It's okay, there seems to be some problems with Zhou Shixian's work, so he left in a hurry."

"Oh oh oh." Yan Yihang breathed a sigh of relief, "Then you have a good rest. I'm dead, goodbye."

Without waiting for Mengshi to say goodbye to him, Yan Yihang hung up the phone, then stared at the call records displayed on the phone screen in a daze...

For several days in a row, Mengshi did not see Zhou Shixian's figure, and only occasionally received a call from Zhou Shixian asking her to deliver a change of clothes.

It seemed that there was indeed a big problem with that research experiment, otherwise Zhou Shixian wouldn't have been on it day and night, eating, drinking and messing around in the company.

The Spring Festival is getting closer and closer. On this day, Mengshi's mother Peng Xiuling called again to urge: "Let's have a holiday soon. Although the statutory holidays are only a few days, according to the usual practice, don't they all be released a few days earlier."

Mengshi was anxious and anxious. In the first year after marriage, Zhou Shixian was still a 24-year-old filial husband who promised to accompany Mengshi back to his hometown for the New Year. He begged Zhou Shixian to go back to her natal home with her on the grounds that she could go there at any time.

At that time, although she persuaded Zhou Shixian to return to her mother's house, she returned to Hangzhou within a few days, and then went to her mother-in-law's house around Hangzhou without stopping. , has been muttering some unsavory words.

"Shishi, Shishi..." Seeing that Mengshi didn't respond, Peng Xiuling kept calling.

"Ah? Mom..." Mengshi replied back to her senses, "Mom, there is something I don't know how to tell you."

Peng Xiuling's heart skipped a beat, but she immediately adjusted her mentality, pretending to be relaxed and replied: "Silly girl, I am your own mother, and the whole family is still so unfamiliar, you can just say it."

"Mom, we may not be able to come back to celebrate the New Year this year." Mengshi bit her lips and said, "Shixian and his company's experimental research has some problems, and they have lived in the company for more than ten days, and we don't have time to go back to my mother-in-law's house for a while. Time. When I usually talk to him, I was afraid of affecting him, so I didn't mention the matter of going home for the New Year... If I really don't come back, I'm worried about Dad..." He hesitated to speak.

Listening to Meng Shi's words, Peng Xiuling immediately understood: the new daughter-in-law will not stay at her in-law's house for two years and New Year's Eve, so it is easy to attract people's tongues.No matter whether Zhou Shixian has been in the company for several days or not, she, as a real mother, cannot let her daughter be talked about and embarrass her.

Therefore, Peng Xiuling hurriedly replied: "Then I won't come back, whether it's to go to my in-law's house for the New Year, or to travel, as long as you two love each other. I will come to your father's ideological work, and wait for the spring to bloom." , it’s the same for me and your dad to come to see you.”

"Thank you, Mom." Mengshi's nose suddenly became sore, and after chatting with Peng Xiuling a few more homely words, she hung up the phone.

As soon as the phone was hung up, Zhou Shixian opened the door and came in. Seeing Mengshi hang up the phone in a "haste", the ingenious timing made Zhou Shixian's heart suddenly filled with green doubts, he rushed forward without saying a word, and slapped Mengshi on the face: "Smelly (cousin), I work day and night in the company, but you cuckold me behind my back!"
