Chapter 97: Returning Home
The studio's annual meeting was a success, and the cohesion and sense of belonging of the staff was greatly enhanced.
This also laid a solid foundation for the planning and development of the studio in the coming year.
After the banquet ended, looking at the busy streets and the crowd of people gradually dispersed to go home, Wu Huai's mood was suddenly a little low.
No matter how ambitious and high-spirited he is, at this time in this strange world, he is somewhat lonely.
"What's wrong?" a soft voice rang in his ears.
Wu Huai turned his head to see that it was Xu Ke, who had been by his side.
She drank a lot of wine today, there was a red cloud around her neck, and her eyes were a little misty, and she was watery.
"It's nothing, it's just that I'm a little unaccustomed to being free all of a sudden. Wu Huai retracted his gaze and said with a smile.
Xu Ke glanced at Wu Huai seriously and asked softly, "Let's go together?"
The wind outside today was not strong, and Wu Huai saw that both of them were dressed quite thickly, so he smiled and nodded.
The two walked side by side on the street-lamped street under the camphor tree, and the occasional cool breeze blew in them, making them unconsciously wrap their clothes tightly.
"Are you going home for the Chinese New Year this year?" Xu Ke was blown by the cold wind, his head was much clearer, and he looked at Wu Huai, who had a calm face, and asked softly.
Wu Huai had no way to answer this question, his home wanted to go back but couldn't go back, and Wu Cunzhai's home ...... For him, how different is it from his residence in Yanjing?
Seeing that Wu Huai was silent, Xu Ke sighed lightly and said, "Your family's situation is more complicated...... I can't persuade you, but no matter what, my cousin is really good to you!"
Wu Huai immediately captured the key word - cousin...... That is, she is the daughter of her own mother's cousin or cousin?
In this way, it should be outside the three generations of collateral blood relatives!
A stone fell in Wu Huai's heart, but he still wanted to confirm it.
He turned his head to look at Xu Ke and asked casually, "I haven't figured it out...... We're generations of blood relatives!"
Xu Ke was stunned, a blush covered his cheeks in an instant, and said angrily: "Why are you asking this!"
"I'm curious. Wu Huai remained silent, but his heartbeat unconsciously accelerated.
Xu Ke looked at Wu Huai for a few seconds, then turned his head and said softly: "Where are there several generations, we are far away, and we are all out of five suits!"
Wu Huai's heart almost jumped out of his body, and he took several deep breaths to suppress the excitement in his heart.
Beyond the Five Suits...... That means that the two don't have much blood relationship!
Looking at the smile that couldn't help but appear on the corner of Wu Huai's mouth, Xu Ke finally became angry and gave him a punch.
Wu Huai was not annoyed, and looked at Xu Ke with a smile a little more, as if he had picked up money.
Xu Ke looked at Wu Huai with this appearance, and couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Wu Huai's hand stretched out and gently held her pink ~ tender hand next to her.
Xu Ke's hands were slightly cold, soft as boneless.
She shrank slightly, but didn't pull out, her face seemed redder under the neon light.
Sending Xu Ke home, Wu Huaicai reluctantly let go of his hand.
Xu Ke hid his hand back in his pocket, stood in front of Wu Huai and said, "Don't think about it, I'm your cousin." ”
"I know," Wu Huai said with a smile on his face and a little smugness, "Far away." ”
"The distant cousin is also a cousin!" Xu Ke snorted, his face slightly red.
"That's also distant. Wu Huai said firmly, the issue of principle cannot be retreated.
"Fuck off. Xu Ke finally became angry, turned around and entered the house.
……
When he returned to his home, Wu Huai was in a somewhat happy mood, and finally he didn't have to suffer from gains and losses.
As soon as I finished washing up and lying on the bed, a message came from my mobile phone.
It was his cousin Wu Qingman: "Brother, when will you come back, what you said you would do this year to go home for the New Year?"
Wu Huai sighed inaudibly, some things always have to be faced, and it is useless to escape!
As far as I know, Wu Cunzhai is not close to his family, and he hasn't even returned home for a few years.
And Xu Ke also revealed a piece of information to himself just now, that is, the situation in his family is more complicated......
Wu Huai pondered for a moment and replied, "I'll go back tomorrow!"
"Really, I'm staying at your house today, so I can tell my aunt the news!" Wu Qingman replied.
"I don't believe it, you send me a location!"
"Hmph...... You don't trust me#map#" Wu Qingman sent Wu Huai the location.
"I believe you," Wu Huai saved the address, and replied when he saw that there was nothing wrong, "I'm going to rest, and I'm going to get up early tomorrow to take the car." ”
He originally planned to call someone to pick him up after he arrived in Oushi, but now that he has the address, he will go there himself.
In a luxury villa in Ou City, Wu Qingman dropped her mobile phone in annoyance, she felt that her cousin was not close at all.
At this moment, a woman with a very good temperament and a dignified appearance knocked on the door and walked in.
looks five or six points similar to Wu Huai, but without Wu Huai's edges and sharpness, it looks softer, she is Wu Huai's mother Xu Wan.
"How is it, Qingman, is Ahuai coming back?" asked Xu Wan softly.
"I'll be back tomorrow, it's all thanks to my persuasion, auntie, how do you want to reward me!" Wu Qingman hugged Xu Wan's arm and said coquettishly.
"You girl," Xu Wan pointed at Wu Qingman's head with her index finger and scolded with a smile, "Auntie, I'll give you which jewelry you like in the house!"
"yes, auntie, I love you!" Wu Qingman jumped up from the bed, and ran towards Xu Wan's dressing room without bothering to put on his slippers.
Xu Wan shook her head, but the smile on her face couldn't be hidden...... Finally willing to come back!
Walking downstairs to the living room, Wu Jiansheng, a middle-aged man sitting on the sofa, put down the documents in his hand and asked softly, "Still unwilling to come back?"
Even if he is careless, he still has a thick momentum when he speaks.
"It's been four years, and I'm finally back this year. Xu Wan said with some sadness.
Seeing that his wife's face was a little sad, Wu Jiansheng smiled and said, "The child is still young, and when he grows up, he will understand your hard work!"
"I hope so. Xu Wan said with a reluctant smile.
"......Shh It's best not to come back, it's annoying to see him, and he looks self-righteous!"
It was a fashionably dressed boy, fourteen or fifteen years old, who spoke, and said with a look of disdain.
His name is Wu Menghao, and he is Wu Huai's half-brother.
That is, the son of Xu Wan and Wu Jiansheng after marrying into the Xu family.
Xu Wan frowned and scolded: "Menghao, that's your brother!
"He's not my brother...... What you don't do well, you just want to do a show, it's embarrassing!" Xu Menghao said arrogantly.
Xu Wan was already uncomfortable in her heart, but when she heard Cheng Menghao say this, she was even more annoyed in her heart, and she stepped forward and wanted to pinch his ears.
Cheng Menghao made a grimace and escaped from the villa with a snap, and the voice came from afar.
"I went out to play with my friends...... Not coming back in the evening!"
"Wu Jiansheng, your son doesn't care!" Xu Wan saw Wu Jiansheng's silent appearance, and vented her anger on him.
"Isn't it also your son, the child is still young, and it is normal to love to play and make trouble!" Wu Jiansheng said nonchalantly.
"If you cause a big disaster one day, I think it's all your favor!" Xu Wan scolded angrily and walked towards her room.
Down the stairs was a delicate-looking and feminine girl, twenty-five or sixteen years old.
Seeing Xu Wan's voice softly greeted, "Mom." ”
"Well, you're going out?" Xu Wan didn't want to give her stepdaughter a look on her face, and responded with an angry face.
"Well, hasn't my brother come back yet?" the girl continued.
"I'm coming back tomorrow......" Xu Wan said with a light sigh.
"It's good, I haven't seen you in a long time!" the girl smiled softly.
