Chapter 36: Strange Man
(PS: Don't worry, there's another chapter)
Xia Yu's kitchen is the kind of open in the West, so the movement on the side of the foyer suddenly reached Yang Yan's ears, and he stopped what he was doing and looked over there in some surprise.
Could it be Xia Yu? No, isn't she training intensively? But who else has the key to their house?
The movement in the hall stopped, and after a while, a slightly hesitant male voice came: "Xiao Xia, I don't know if you're at home, don't you live outside......
Soon, Yang Yan saw a man dragging two boxes turn the corner and appear in front of him.
When the eyes of the two men collided, at this moment, the air was filled with an aura of embarrassment.
The man dragging the two suitcases was dressed very seriously, a light gray suit, a black sweater with a high neck underneath, and his silver-rimmed glasses with thin feet, he looked like a very traditional successful person, and of course, he also looked a little old-fashioned......
Yang Yan looked at the other party at the same time, the other party was also looking at Yang Yan vigilantly, in his eyes, a young man wearing an apron, standing in the kitchen with a kitchen knife, and there was obviously a child in the stroller next to him, this posture was ...... It feels like Yang Yan is the owner of this house!
"Who are you?" Almost in unison, Yang Yan and the other party opened their mouths and asked at the same time.
Yang Yan, who knew that he was a guest, hurriedly replied: "Hello, I am a friend of Xia Yu, my name is Yang Yan." During this time, because the child is not feeling well, borrowing to live at her house, you are ...... Xia Yu's relatives?"
The man in the suit flashed his eyes, smiled lightly, and said, "Oh...... It turned out that this was the case, I didn't know, but I just heard Mayor Xia say that Xia Yu went to your province for training. ”
Mayor Xia? Yang Yan thought he had misheard.
However, soon he stopped dwelling on the subject, because what the man in the suit said next seemed to throw a deafening bomb at him......
"Let me introduce myself, I am Xia Yu's boyfriend, my name is He Jiawei, if you are Xiao Xia's friend, just call me Brother He. The man in the suit said as he looked around the house with a hidden look, and saw that only one room downstairs was lit up, and the rest of the place was dark, as if Yang Yan's range of activities was only downstairs, so he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He Jiawei's strange appearance, if Xia Yu was replaced, he would definitely be able to see the clues, but Yang Yan listened to his words at the moment, his head exploded, let alone what he found, he stood there stupidly, with only a big question left in his mind.
Does Xia Yu have a boyfriend?
How can it be?
Yang Yan's head was buzzing, and he was a little dizzy.
Yang Yan has known Xia Yu for more than three months, and when she was in the rental house, Xia Yu would come to Yang Yan almost every night to check on him to take care of Luoluo, and when she moved here, Xia Yu also came over almost every day after work until she went to your province.
For such a long time, Xia Yu not only didn't say that she had a boyfriend, but no matter how you look at it, she doesn't look like a girl with a boyfriend!
He Jiawei saw the doubts in Yang Yan's eyes, he smiled slightly, did not explain directly, but considered the words, and said slowly: "I came today to come to Yangcheng to do business in accordance with Mayor Xia's entrustment. Isn't this the end of the year? Some leaders are going to pay a visit. ”
"Mayor Xia?" Yang Yan finally remembered the question just now, and he asked hesitantly.
"Xiao Xia didn't tell you?" He Jiawei's eyes under the silver-rimmed glasses narrowed slightly, but there was still a smile on his face, and he said, "Then I can't say too much, don't tell Xiao Xia about this, she doesn't like this kind of thing very much." But after all, it's officialdom, and it's always indispensable. ”
He Jiawei said that he wanted to go up to get a bottle of red wine, and said that this was Xia Yu's father's request, so Yang Yan watched him stupidly and went upstairs.
Waiting for He Jiawei's back to disappear on the stairs, Yang Yan hesitated, but still walked to the dining table, turned on his computer, and quickly tapped on the keyboard, searching for the name of the city leader of Hecheng.
Xia Yu told him before that her parents were in Hecheng, but although Yang Yan was from Hecheng, he was just an ordinary person and didn't care about local news, so he didn't know the names of those leaders at all.
But soon, the omnipotent network gave him the answer.
Xia Xiangyang, executive vice mayor of the city. Yang Yan was silent, he now knew that He Jiawei was not fooling him.
I don't know why, Yang Yan was even more willing that he couldn't find out, and then deduced that He Jiawei was a liar......
Not long after, He Jiawei came down from upstairs, he took a box of red wine and showed it to Yang Yan, and then he found a bag and picked it up, and then he dragged two boxes and the box of red wine, ready to leave.
When He Jiawei passed by the kitchen, he smiled and said to Yang Yan: "Since Xiao Xia asked you to live here temporarily, then I don't want to ask anything, but don't mess with the things in this house, because Mayor Xia will be unhappy, you know what I mean, right?"
Yang Yan nodded silently, he didn't like the man's eyes in front of him that often narrowed.
However, in order to show friendship, Yang Yan paused, responded to He Jiawei with a smile, and even invited generously: "Brother He, have you eaten dinner?" I cooked tomato brisket, do you want to stay and eat some together?"
Yang Yan didn't want to behave like a gaffe.
He Jiawei glanced at the wok that was still cooking, and there was a hint of disdain in his eyes, but he hid it well, and his mature and steady face still had a polite smile.
"No, I've already had dinner. When He Jiawei refused, he dragged his things and left.
The door slammed shut, leaving Yang Yan standing quietly under the warm light of the kitchen, Nuoda's house, except for his bedroom, was dark and dark, and the riverside lights outside the terrace were refracted in, and the house seemed extremely empty.
Yang Yan stayed silently for a while, and when the time came, he lifted the lid of the pot, poured the potatoes, radishes and the remaining tomato juice into it, and then boiled it for another ten minutes......
During the whole process, except for the tinkling of pots and spoons, Yang Yan did not make any other sounds.
It wasn't until Yang Yan brought the boiled tomato brisket to the table that he exhaled leisurely.
Yang Yan turned around, with a smile on his face, walked towards Luoluo, who had been snubbed by him for a while, the little guy actually lay there silently for a long time, if usually, she found that her father hadn't played with her for a while, and she would have to make a little noise to attract her father's attention!
"Come, Luoluo, how about seeing the super tomato, potato, and carrot stewed beef brisket that Dad made?
Yang Yan sat at the dining table with Luoluo in his arms, and explained to Luoluo how good this dish was: "...... Not only is it nutritious, but you see, when Dad comes over with a bowl of rice, can you pour these fragrant tomato soup on the rice and eat it?"
After talking for a while, Yang Yan lowered his head but found that Luoluo didn't look at the food he made at all, but looked at him intently, and his clear and innocent eyes were like mirrors, reflecting what he couldn't hide.
Yang Yan was stunned for a moment, he lowered his eyelids slightly, and after a while, he lowered his head and kissed Luoluo's little face gently, he smiled, as if he was admonishing himself, and smiled softly with Luoluo: "It's okay, Luoluo, it's okay with Dad, in fact, there is nothing to ask for, your godmother is a very good girl, Dad can't do it! It's okay, Dad hasn't thought about those things, so don't be sad, you say?"
Luoluo seemed to understand the sadness in her father's eyes, her big eyes looked at her father intently, and then raised her small palm, and gently put it on her father's face like when the kitten was coquettish with people.
Yang Yan was stunned, he smiled, his mood suddenly brightened a lot, he lowered his head and kissed the little girl's little fingertips like little shells, and said with a smile: "You sticky little goblin!"
......
Late at night, Yang Yan changed Luoluo's clean diapers and coaxed her to continue sleeping, looked at the time, covered her laptop, and prepared to wash and sleep.
But when he got up from the chair, Yang Yan's face hesitated, he reached out on the table and grabbed his mobile phone, and after thinking about it for a while, he still sent a text message: "Xia Yu, your boyfriend is here tonight, but it's not a big deal, he said he was going to do something for your father, and he has left." ”
Yang Yan kept telling himself the reason for sending this text message in his heart: "I still have to say it, let Xia Yu know, otherwise she doesn't know what's going on, it's too passive." ”
After the text message was sent, Yang Yan walked out and brushed his teeth in the toilet, but he didn't notice that he had just walked out, and the small screen of his mobile phone quietly lit up.
