Gu Pan Sheng Zi

Chapter 13N.15
At the end of the month, the Christmas spirit is already strong in the shops on the streets.All kinds of colored lights are hung on the decorated Christmas tree, and simple gift models are hung all over the branches. Even if you look at it from a distance, you can't help but be infected by the festive atmosphere.

Guan Guan was urging Cen Xun to keep hitting my wallet.So I urged her to get the idea of ​​Qiao Ke's wallet.

But I underestimated Qiao Ke's destructive power. After putting down the phone, Guan Guan searched at home for a long time, and finally asked me in frustration: "Mom, why doesn't our house have a chimney?"

"Because there is heating and geothermal heat, there is no need to burn coal for heating, so there is no chimney."

"But what have chimneys to do with heating?"

I think that if I explain it further, my poor physics knowledge may not be able to fool Guan Guan, "Guan Guan, what do you want a chimney for?"

"Aunt Qiao Ke said that there will be Santa Claus giving gifts to the children, but he doesn't go through the main entrance but through the chimney. But our house doesn't have a chimney, how can Santa Claus come in?"

I wish I could squeeze Qiao Ke into a chimney, and when I was considering whether to tell Guan Guan that Santa Claus was just a legend, Guan Guan hugged me and said, "Mom, I don't want Christmas presents anymore, will you install a chimney for our house? "

Then when I said that Santa Claus is a fictional character, Guan Guan insisted that this was an excuse for my unwillingness to install chimneys.

She was angry and I was helpless.

Xiang Jie's call saved me in time. He said that Xiang Cen Xun was pestering him for gifts, and asked Guan Guan and me if we want to go shopping together. He is not very good at such things as a big man.

I agreed.For nearly a month, Xiang Jie would send me at least one text message every day, and sometimes he would call me at an appropriate time.A mature man like him has a sense of proportion that doesn't make you feel uncomfortable or embarrassed.He made no secret of his desire to pursue me, but he didn't send flowers or gifts or say nasty words.Most of our meetings were conducted harmlessly and openly in the presence of both Guan Guan and Xiang Cen Xun.

I don't hate this man at all, and I don't have the loyal thought of defending myself like a jade for anyone.Everyone has their own life, others continue, and mine cannot stand still.

As soon as he got in the car, Xiang Cen Xun saw Guan Guan's pouted mouth and asked, "What's the matter, your mother didn't give you a gift?"

"Your dad too?"

So the two said in unison, "My lord, you don't mean what you say."

I held back a smile and exchanged glances with Xiang Jie who was driving, he also looked helpless, I asked, "What gift does Xun Xun want?"

"A Chow Chow."

"What's the problem? Are you afraid of dogs?"

He glanced at me and said in a low voice, "Xun Xun has asthma."

I didn't know how to continue the conversation, and I couldn't bear to look at Xiang Cenxun who was having fun with Guan Guan in the back seat.

Xiang Jie asked me, "What does Guan Guan want?"

"chimney."

"The chimney? Did I hear correctly?"

"Yes, that thing that smokes."

Xiang Yan smiled all over his face, "What does she want that for?"

"Providing transportation for Santa to come to my house."

Xiang Yan burst out laughing, and I heard Guan Guan whispering to Xiang Cen Xun, "Look, how happy your father is when he doesn't buy you a gift."

So I dare not laugh.

During the meal, Xiang Zhen, as the chief architect, explained to Guan Guan how impossible and extremely risky it is to open a hole in our house to install a chimney in easy-to-understand language.It is likely to cause the building to collapse, threatening our personal safety.

Guan Guan listened with half understanding, and finally reluctantly gave up the idea of ​​having a chimney.

I used tea instead of wine to express my incomparable gratitude to Xiang Zhen. "Your expertise is too strong."

He leaned close to my ear and whispered, "It's not about demolishing the load-bearing wall. How could it be risky? I lied to Guan Guan. Don't be happy, look serious, and don't let the two brats see it."

Fox, fox.

Xiang Jie loves Xiang Cen Xun, not pampering him. He does not allow Xiang Cen Xun to eat raw and cold spicy food. Even if Xiang Cen Xun sees Guan Guan eating ice cream with tears in his eyes, he will turn a blind eye and hold The napkin carefully wiped off the salad dressing from the corner of Xiang Cen Xun's mouth.

I asked Guan Guan, "Guan Guan, is the ice cream delicious?" At the same time, I secretly pinched Guan Guan's thigh under the table.This is the secret signal that Guan Guan and I colluded to deal with Qiao Ke.

Guan Guan frowned and said in a low voice, "It's not delicious, not at all."

Xiang Cen Xun asked doubtfully, "Really?"

Guan Guan nodded vigorously, "I will never eat ice cream again."

I resisted the urge to boast about being a good boy, because I was afraid that Guan Guan would take it seriously and cry on the spot because I couldn't eat ice cream in the future, which would be a bad thing.

Xiang Cen Xun believed in Guan Guan, and stopped losing his temper, and the two began to study which cake they should eat.

Xiang Jie raised his eyebrows at me, "Thank you."

"Reciprocity."

"I said that you and your wife cooperate well enough. Fortunately, I have eaten ice cream."

I proudly said: "Of course, my own."
