Marry a female star at a bargain price

Chapter 63 63. Deteriorating employment relationship

After my second aunt Deng Juan calmed down, the birthday party was finally able to go on smoothly.

Then Lin Xiao was targeted.

My uncle-in-law Liang Bin tried his best to get him drunk, and finally they started to attack him alone.

Liu Liyun was so angry.

In the end, Lin Xiao lived up to everyone's expectations and got drunk, and he didn't even know how he left the restaurant.

When I woke up, it was already dark.

The winter sunset shines through the window, the air outside the quilt is cold, and a huge feeling of loneliness sweeps over me.

He rubbed his eyes.

It took me a while to figure out that this should be Xixi's grandparents' room.

Just as I was staring blankly, two familiar voices came from the living room.

"When you were a child, you were afraid of the dark. You would cry when it got dark... Do you remember?" Shen Suzhi joked.

"Grandma..." Han Xixi started to act coquettishly.

The two spoke in an affectionate tone.

Lin Xiao looked up and just happened to see through the crack in the door the backs of the grandparents and grandchildren snuggling in the living room.

One has black hair like a waterfall, the other has white hair.

The trajectories of time intersect and brush against each other at this moment, and then rush forward without stopping.

"Xiao Lin is such a great kid!"

Shen Suzhi suddenly smiled with emotion and said, "He is calm and filial, honest, and doesn't talk much..."

Han Xixi couldn't help interrupting: "How do you know he's honest?"

Shen Suzhi laughed and said, "Your uncle-in-law forced him to drink so much, but he didn't hide and just drank one cup after another. Isn't this honest?"

Han Xixi didn't say anything.

Shen Suzhi sighed again, "Grandma has lived to this age and has no regrets in this life, but she is worried about you, a little crybaby! Now that you can find such a reliable young man, grandma will feel at ease..."

"grandmother……"

The grandparents and grandchildren leaned against each other again.

Lin Xiao secretly took a look at this scene, and inexplicably, the loneliness at dusk was dispelled, and replaced by peace of mind.

……

We had dinner at Mingyue Garden.

The families of Liu Lisong and Liu Linian have already left, leaving only the families of sisters Liu Liyun and Liu Lixia.

There are suddenly a lot fewer people!
The two sisters always talk more than they do with their brothers, and the atmosphere at the dinner table is more intimate than at noon.

Liu Liyun specially cooked porridge for the drunk men.

But Lin Xiao felt sick with his appetite and couldn't eat anything. Then Liang Bin was scolded by the two sisters again.

Liang Bin: Hey...the new son-in-law is a treasure, but the old son-in-law is nothing but a piece of shit, right?

I winked at my brother-in-law for help, but Han Haijun pretended not to see it!
After dinner.

Han Xixi has a flight early tomorrow morning, so prepare to evacuate.

Liu Liyun originally wanted them to go home and sleep, but after they exchanged glances, they decided to go back to Tianlan Garden.

Liu Lixia immediately burst into laughter: "Sister, this is called an extroverted girl, just accept your fate!"

Liu Liyun rolled her eyes in anger: "Just wait, Tiantian is already seventeen, I think you will be seventeen soon too!"

Liu Lixia disagreed: "I am open-minded. Tiantian wants to find a good husband like Xixi. I am not jealous no matter how she supports her husband..."

Liang Tian then said: "I'm not looking for a husband. Boys are so childish. Eh..."

His look of disgust made everyone at the table laugh.

Han Xixi retreated amid the ridicule of her elders and went out to feel the cool wind. The blush on her face then dissipated a lot.

Along the way, she didn't say much. She drove and looked ahead with a gloomy expression.

"What's wrong? Are you worried about something?" Lin Xiao asked from the passenger seat.

Han Xixi pursed her lips and said nothing.

"You can talk, I promise to just listen and not talk!" Lin Xiao said with a smile.

Han Xixi also smiled hesitantly.

Then he spoke in a low voice: "Well... Actually it's nothing, I just feel that I'm older and grandma is older... Time is really cruel!"

Lin Xiao did what he said and didn't respond.

"When I was a kid, I lived with my grandma, and I looked forward to my parents coming to pick me up every day!"

Han Xixi said to herself, "Now that I'm older, I finally don't need to be picked up by others. I have my own job and life. When the time comes, I have to leave... Sometimes, I really don't want to grow up!"

Lin Xiao smiled.

Look straight ahead with a calm expression.

"Brother Lin, thank you for today!"

"..."

"Um...you can talk now!"

"call!"

Lin Xiao let out a long sigh, "Thank you for what?" Han Xixi said shyly, "Thank you for what you said to grandpa and grandma today... Grandma said this afternoon that she had a very happy and contented birthday... All thanks to you!"

Lin Xiao smiled.

"You're welcome... We signed the contract, so it's only natural!"

"Ah?!" Han Xixi was stunned.

Lin Xiao pursed his lips.

He didn't know why he had to add this sentence, it just popped out of his mind for some reason.

The atmosphere in the car suddenly became awkward.

He wanted to explain, but stopped when the words came to his lips!

Lately, their roles as husband and wife have been getting better and better.

They had such a tacit understanding that even he would sometimes forget he was acting and say certain words without thinking.

The final result is of course that everyone is happy and joyful.

But he was the only one who knew that this shouldn't happen!

At this moment, he interrupted Han Xixi's tender offensive like a conditioned reflex, and used the cold contract to drag their relationship back to the fact of an employment relationship.

He knew it was the right move.

However, even he himself did not realize that this strong subconsciousness was itself a stress response to the deterioration of their relationship!

His brain was trying to extricate him from this illogical and illegal contractual relationship.

Once the rescue action is established.

This means that his mind has been hijacked...

……

Return to Tianlan Garden.

Because of the awkward conversation in the car just now, neither of them had the time to spend time together, so they washed up and went to bed.

It's past eleven o'clock.

Lin Xiao was no longer drunk and was too hungry to sleep, so he came out to look for something to eat.

As a result, there was nothing at home except noodles and a bag of fruit brought back from Mingyue Garden.

I wanted to just deal with the two of them.

The door of the master bedroom suddenly opened, and Han Xixi poked his head out: "Brother Lin, are you still awake?"

"Ah, I'm hungry..." Lin Xiao scratched his head.

"Oh... then shall I make you something to eat?"

"Ah? You?!"

Lin Xiao recalled the last time she almost blew up the kitchen, and his tone was full of distrust.

Han Xixi didn't explain. There were a few tomatoes in the fruit and a few eggs in the refrigerator.

"Scrambled eggs with tomatoes?" She was eager to try.

"Forehead……"

Lin Xiao thought that fried tomato and eggs should be eaten with rice, so he said, "How about tomato and egg noodles... Is that okay?"

"..."

Han Xixi thought about it and felt that it should be about the same, so he nodded.

A meal in the kitchen.

Lin Xiao was trembling with fear outside, and told himself that no matter what he ate, he had to say it was delicious.

Conscience is something that should be violated!

After waiting for about ten minutes, a big bowl of steaming noodles was served.

It has bright colors, attractive aroma and looks very marketable.

It’s just that...the eggs are in lumps and don’t look very pretty when soaked in the soup!

But it doesn’t hurt.

Lin Xiao was a little surprised. He picked up the chopsticks and took a bite, his eyes lit up.

"Mmm, it's delicious!"

"Brother Lin...if it doesn't taste good, you can just tell me directly!" Han Xixi was very unconfident.

Lin Xiao said seriously: "It's really delicious, didn't you try it?"

Han Xixi shook his head and thought to himself, I dare not taste it, if I taste it I might have to pour it into the sink.

"Then try it!"

As Lin Xiao spoke, he picked up a handful of noodles with chopsticks, put it in the spoon, blew on it, and then fed it to her.

Han Xixi was a little dazed.

Lin Xiao also realized it later.

The chandelier above the dining table is a warm yellow, and the heat is thick under the light.

Both of their cheeks started to feel hot at the same time...
