Chapter 408

"How is the procedure for Mu Liting's transfer of the company's shares going?" Mu Xiangqing asked with concern.

Mu Shaoze frowned when he heard this. He has been too busy and under too much pressure recently. He needs to reflect on what he learned at the time. "It's almost the end. Basically, it can be done in two days."

"Think of a way to delay it first, I've found a good way to temporarily control Mu Liting." Mu Xiangqing ordered, Mu Shaoze was confused, although he was not quite sure what was going on, But he hastily agreed to what his father ordered, and everything will be obeyed by the veteran's father's arrangement.

……

France.

It has been a few days since Gu Xiaoxiao left home, and she misses Mu Liting so much, she always dreams of him when she sleeps and dreams, and she is very tired, lying on the bed and recalling the past memories, it is always sour.

But when she thought of the little baby in her belly, she tenaciously cheered up and cheered up.

Thinking of this, Gu Xiaoxiao thought of John's help to him after she arrived in France, and provided her with a lot of convenience. She should really thank him when she has time.

Suddenly the phone rang. She picked it up and saw that it was John calling. She couldn't help but shook her head with a smile. You really can't tell people behind your back...

"John?" Gu Xiaoxiao answered.

Hearing Gu Xiaoxiao's clear and gentle voice, John, who had been busy for a long time, felt very relaxed like a spring of spring washing his heart: "Luth, how are you? Did you sleep well last night?"

Gu Xiaoxiao subconsciously stroked her stomach, and said, "Well, I slept well, it's very comfortable here, thank you so much."

John's tone rose: "Ruth, are you not helping me as a friend by saying this?"

Gu Xiaoxiao quickly explained: "No, no, I really appreciate your help."

John's tone was still somewhat dissatisfied: "Really?"

Gu Xiaoxiao became a little anxious: "Really, you trust me."

John saw that she was really anxious, and laughed: "You are too cute! If you really thank me, how about treating me to dinner? You still owe me a meal, won't you forget it?"

John offered to say that of course Gu Xiaoxiao remembered how expensive a meal John had treated her to when she first arrived in France.

"Of course I remember, what do you want to eat, I'm going to go out." Gu Xiaoxiao got up and wanted to change out of clothes, but John stopped him directly on the phone.

"You're a mommy now, so you should be good at cooking. Treat me to your cooking. You're economical and sincere." John said curiously, not knowing what her cooking skills were.

Gu Xiaoxiao thought about it, this method is very good, so she agreed: "Okay, you come to my place, then we will go to the supermarket together, but I don't know if it will suit your taste."

John made a decision: "Then it's settled. I'll go to your place now. I didn't even eat breakfast. I'm really starving to death."

Gu Xiaoxiao smiled: "Okay, I'll wait for you."

After hanging up the phone, Gu Xiaoxiao got up and changed clothes, looked at herself in the mirror, and suddenly thought of Mu Liting in her mind, wondering how he is living in China now?
There was very little information about him on the TV news, which made her very worried.

Hey!
Gu Xiaoxiao shook her head, put aside the distracting thoughts in her mind, and secretly sighed at her own thoughts, now that she is in France, don't miss him all the time!
Not long after, John's phone rang, telling her that he was at the door of the hotel and could come down.

Gu Xiaoxiao took a deep breath, left the room, and went downstairs.

John was still wearing a white shirt at this time, half leaning against the side of the car, his elegant profile attracted the eyes of many passing girls.

Seeing Gu Xiaoxiao's figure appearing at the gate, John raised his head and grinned: "Ruth!"

Gu Xiaoxiao responded with a big smile.

"Let's go, let's go, I'm really starving to death!" John led Gu Xiaoxiao to sit on the co-pilot, but his movements were extremely gentle.

Gu Xiaoxiao put on her seat belt and asked by the way: "What do you want to eat?"

John thought for a while: "Chinese food! Chinese food tastes very good! Just do whatever you can."

Gu Xiaoxiao looked at him with a smile: "I can do anything."

In fact, she uttered wild words that her cooking was just a little homework, and she was worried that John would not like too simple dishes, so she planned to let him talk about it, and then she checked the information at night and groped to make it by herself.

John said: "Then can I trouble the beautiful Miss Ruth to cook a meal for me with your delicate hands?"

Gu Xiaoxiao was amused by him: "Are the French so glib?"

John shook his head: "nono, this is respect for women ~ women need to be loved."

Gu Xiaoxiao also laughed, but after getting along for a few days, she can really feel the gentlemanly style of John. She has a better and better impression of him, and she believes more and more that he will help her when she is in trouble. friend.

The two arrived at the supermarket while talking and laughing.She has already thought of a few recipes in her mind, she just needs to buy the required ingredients and some condiments.

John has never been to a supermarket to buy vegetables, and he doesn't know many condiments. He is also curious about this and that, and he sighs that Chinese food is delicious for no reason.

So in a corner of the supermarket, Gu Xiaoxiao carefully selected vegetables, but John was definitely a layman when it came to vegetables, "Wow, Ruth, what is this long green stick-like thing?"

"This is a green onion." Gu Xiaoxiao explained carefully.

"What is this hard, deformed coral-like thing?" John was immature and excited like a child seeing a new world.

"This is ginger."

There are many conversations like this, John kept asking like a curious baby, and Gu Xiaoxiao answered patiently.

But she was very curious about how he survived his life in the past, and he was not even familiar with these basic living ingredients.

Thinking about Mu Liting, he is a master cook, better than hers... Thinking about it, I couldn't help but think of Mu Liting, after these days, she was going crazy to miss him.

After buying a cartful of vegetables, Gu Xiaoxiao insisted on paying for it herself, but John was not willing to do so. The belief in loving and respecting all women that he was taught since childhood also made him insist on paying.

The two were at a stalemate, and the waitress smiled ambiguously and said something in French.

Gu Xiaoxiao looked at John suspiciously, but John didn't explain, just smiled and patted her head, asking her to pay.

Gu Xiaoxiao didn't know why, so she stepped forward and paid the money obediently.

On the way home, John kept recalling what the waiter said just now, and unconsciously raised the corners of his lips.

"Let your wife pay. I heard that in China, only those who are close to you and important to you will rush to pay."

For this answer, Gu Xiaoxiao was slightly taken aback, a little embarrassed, and then looked away.

John naturally noticed the look in her eyes, and then explained, "It's not because the waiter's words are funny, I just feel respect for oriental women, so don't think too much about it."

"Well, no." Gu Xiaoxiao replied with a smile, and did not continue the topic.

Arrived at the hotel soon.

John got out of the car and opened the door for Gu Xiaoxiao, picked up two shopping bags from the back seat, and walked side by side to the room with Gu Xiaoxiao.

Opening the door, putting down the shopping bags, Gu Xiaoxiao wrapped up the apron she just bought, and John praised: "Oh, it's so beautiful."

Gu Xiaoxiao smiled: "This is an apron that is worn when cooking in China."

Taking these ingredients into the kitchen, John thought that she was pregnant and it would be bad if she was too tired, so he rolled up his sleeves and went into the kitchen to help him.

Wash the vegetables John still knows how to do it.

Gu Xiaoxiao was also polite, and directly gave the order: "John, wash and peel that potato."

Gu Xiaoxiao neatly chopped the ribs into small pieces and prepared the sauce.

Prepare the chicken pieces by cutting them into small pieces.Marinate the piece of fish you bought.

John also carefully cleaned and peeled the skin, and began shredding under Gu Xiaoxiao's guidance.

Turning on the fire quickly to cook, Gu Xiaoxiao moved very quickly, stirring and thickening the sauce to John's surprise.

Gu Xiaoxiao said: "John, go out and wait for me first, but I'm not moving so fast here."

John helped her prepare the ingredients, thought for a while that there was nothing he could do, so he turned and went out.

Three dishes were cooked quickly, and when it came to the last hot and sour potato shreds, Gu Xiaoxiao looked at the pile of potato sticks and couldn't laugh or cry.

You're used to eating French fries... Haha Gu Xiaoxiao couldn't hide the smile on the corner of her mouth, and helped the pile of potato chips to process.

Soon, Gu Xiaoxiao came out with a few dishes, and John who was waiting outside had already smelled the fragrance inside, and was so hungry that he couldn't die.

"Ruth, what are these dishes called?" John asked curiously.

Gu Xiaoxiao came out with two bowls of rice: "The ribs are sweet and sour pork ribs, the potatoes are hot and sour potato shreds, this is spicy chicken, and this is fish soup."

John took a bite of the sweet and sour pork ribs, squinted his eyes happily, took another piece after eating quickly, and gave a thumbs up with his mouth puffed out: "Chinese food is really delicious!"

Gu Xiaoxiao was also very happy: "As long as you like it."

Seeing that John was eating deliciously, Gu Xiaoxiao's appetite seemed to improve a lot, and she ate two bowls of rice at the end of the meal.

After John ate, his speed gradually slowed down, as if he wanted to say something.

Gu Xiaoxiao didn't notice, but happily ate the dishes she cooked.

Seeing her pure and lovely appearance, John mustered up his courage and reached out to hold Gu Xiaoxiao's hand.

Gu Xiaoxiao was taken aback, then looked up at John blankly: "What's wrong?"

John's face flushed slightly, but he looked at Gu Xiaoxiao very seriously: "Luth, you are very cute and kind, I like you very much, I hope you can be my girlfriend."

After finishing speaking, her deep eyes stared at Gu Xiaoxiao earnestly. Gu Xiaoxiao was startled. She didn't expect him to say this suddenly, and she withdrew her hand in panic: "John..."

John seemed to feel that Gu Xiaoxiao didn't believe it, so he made a promise: "Really! Ruth, I'm serious!"

Gu Xiaoxiao looked at him in embarrassment. John was very kind to herself, but she only regarded John as a good friend. On the other hand, she didn't want to find a stepdad. She was afraid that it would affect her children in the future.

In fact, deep down in her heart, she still can't forget Mu Liting. Although she ran away from him, she never thought about finding another stepdad for her child...
