Chapter 272: Good things happen every year, especially this year
Just as foodies can't restrain their appetite when facing the Manchu and Han banquets, Zhao Xiaozi also can't restrain his yearning for hypnosis research.
Dai Yiran's favor was too tempting, no matter how rational Zhao Xiaozi was, he finally accepted his kindness.
Not only that, as a sensible "social person", Zhao Xiaozi also took the initiative to visit Dai Yiran's parents.
After all, without the support of his parents, even if he wanted to allocate funds for Zhao Xiaozi for the research of hypnosis in the development of the enterprise, there would be no way to pass.
On a sunny weekend, Zhao Xiaozi dressed up appropriately, brought the gifts that had been prepared a long time ago, and got into Dai Yiran's car.
Ah Bin went out to buy vegetables early in the morning, and was thinking about conquering Zhao Xiaozi's heart with the food route, and watched Dai Yiran's car go away from a distance and was stunned for a long time.
"What do you mean? What did he do?"
In order to learn the food route from Abin, Qian Jiashun also went to the vegetable market early in the morning, and heard a very natural interface: "Of course, I followed Dai resolutely to meet his parents!"
"What? What are you doing when you see your parents? What did Zhao Xiaozi take and bring a gift over?" Ah Bin's eyebrows were about to fly.
"yes, don't you know?" Qian Jiashun asked rhetorically with a bit of wickedness.
In fact, compared with Dai Yiran, who has a complicated family, he vaguely knows Abin's identity, and he thinks that Abin is more suitable for Zhao Xiaozi.
However, since the showdown with Zhao Xiaozi, he often thinks of himself as an elder brother, and he has a bit of a sister-in-control tendency, so that Abin can easily take Zhao Xiaozi, but he is still unhappy. So if it's okay, I want to add some blockage to Abin.
Ah Bin didn't have time to ask Qian Jiashun why he hadn't told himself earlier, so he threw down the food in his hand and went straight to his car, trying to chase Zhao Xiaozi back.
What the hell happened, how could Xiaozi be willing to go to meet her parents with Dai Yiran? Abin carefully recalled the bits and pieces of the three of them getting along recently, and still didn't have a clue, so he had to increase the accelerator and rush forward.
Dai Yiran was happily talking to Zhao Xiaozi, and suddenly saw Qian Jiashun send a WeChat message, saying that Abin drove to catch up. So I also increased the throttle and drove fast in the busy city on weekends.
"What are you doing driving so fast, are you in a hurry?" Zhao Xiaozi looked at the several cars that were left behind in a row, and was a little puzzled.
"It's nothing, there are too many cars, it's annoying! By the way, I don't seem to have my mobile phone, so lend me your phone to make a call." Dai resolutely did not change his face.
Zhao Xiaozi handed over the phone indifferently, and Dai resolutely turned off the phone while she was not paying attention, and then pretended to slip under the seat inadvertently.
"Eh, there's a car ahead, be careful!" Zhao Xiaozi kept looking ahead, and when she saw that Dai resolutely did not avoid the car in front, she hurriedly reminded her.
"Oh, I dropped your phone under the car seat, and I'm picking it up for you!"
"No, no one is looking for me on the big weekend, and it's the same to pick it up when I get off the bus. ”
"Okay, then you remember to remind me later, lest I forget ......"
……
Ah Bin set off late, and because Dai resolutely deliberately detoured, he got rid of him who followed him after a while.
When Abin saw that he had lost someone, he remembered to call Zhao Xiaozi, and only after this call did he find that Zhao Xiaozi's mobile phone was turned off.
For a while, many speculations poured into Ah Bin's heart, only making him feel like he was burning in a pot, and he kept grunting.
After calming down for a long time, Abin checked the address of Dai Yiran's house and drove over directly, no matter what the situation, he only knew when he went.
……
When she got out of the car, Zhao Xiaozi patronized and listened to Dai resolutely introduce the basic situation of their family, but she forgot to bring her mobile phone.
Entering the house, Zhao Xiaozi first took out the gift she had prepared: "This is for my aunt, the flower dew produced by the Harvard laboratory, without any additives, you can drink it directly or wipe your face."
This one is for my uncle, a club used by Brooks Koepka, one of the world's top 10 golfers, and it has his autograph on it. ”
Dai Yiran's mother hadn't realized what the concept of Harvard Lab was, and Dai Yiran's father had taken the cue in surprise.
"Is this really what Brooks Koepka used?"
"Yes, uncle, this is something he gave me after I met him in the United States to encourage me to learn golf. ”
Dai Yiran's father was already carefully studying the signature on the golf club, and the surrogate mother leaned over to take a look, and saw that it was just a somewhat old club, and she was a little unimpressed.
But she also knew that she didn't know how to play golf, so she turned to the flower dew she received: "I really didn't expect the Harvard lab to produce flower dew!"
Oops, that's a shame, I've been using La Mer lately, so I'm afraid I don't have time to use your dew. Why don't you give your gift to our nanny?"
Zhao Xiaozi's eyes narrowed slightly, and the atmosphere was a little stagnant.
The surrogate mother remembered Zhao Xiaozi's means of rectifying Merlin, and suddenly regretted it, but Dai resolutely glanced at the surrogate mother at this time.
Dai Yiran, who was already hurt by Zhao Xiaozi, was forced out of the country during college, and her surrogate mother immediately became tough again: "Xiao Liu, come quickly! I have something for you!"
Xiao Liu, the nanny of Dai Yiran's family, quickly trotted over, and the surrogate mother handed the flower dew to Xiao Liu in front of everyone: "Look, this is the flower dew produced by the laboratory of Harvard University!"
Xiao Liu took it a little helplessly, looked at this, looked at that, and finally set his eyes on his surrogate father.
The surrogate father avoided Xiao Liu's gaze for help, and to be honest, he also wanted to see how Zhao Xiaozi dealt with this situation.
Zhao Xiaozi was really angry, she was reluctant to let go of the flower dew produced in the laboratory of Harvard University, and only used a little bit each time, but she didn't expect the surrogate mother to ignore it like this.
She didn't bother to explain the rarity of this thing to her, seeing Xiao Liu's expression of wanting to cry, she couldn't bear to embarrass a nanny, so she smiled and said: "This flower dew is rare, you are still young, just use a little at a time, otherwise the nutrition is too rich, and you can't absorb it." ”
Zhao Xiaozi explained the usage to Xiao Liu as if no one was around, and repeatedly emphasized that she only had the last bottle left before stopping.
The surrogate mother is even more disapproving, it is really a girl with no family background, a bottle of flower dew, is it necessary to be like this, I don't know!
She naturally forgot Zhao Xiaozi's performance at the charity gala some time ago.
With this episode, in the future, everyone gets along much better, and the surrogate mother is too lazy to talk to Zhao Xiaozi, and she is afraid of surrendering her identity;
As for the surrogate father, for the sake of golf clubs, he is still very kind to her, although he is a little disdainful of Zhao Xiaozi's caution in explaining the use of flower dew just now.
However, from the perspective of the overall situation, this Zhao Xiaozi is still better than an outsider invited by the United States.
Zhao Xiaozi and her surrogate father talked about a happy conversation, but Abin, who followed behind, was not so lucky. First tried to enter the community and was stopped by the security guard, and then was looked at by another security guard like a thief, the phone has been turned off for a long time, and his heart is tormented.
In the end, Abin was even thinking about whether he was usually too confident and had been ignoring the relationship between her and Dai Yiran, so he was the last to know that they had reached the stage of meeting their parents.
It's autumn, and the wind is a little cool, but no matter how cold it is, it can't compare to Abin's heart. He recalled every scene with Zhao Xiaozi, and deeply realized that he couldn't do without her.
The first meeting three years ago, the unexpected reunion three years later, every scene was deeply rooted in his heart. Abin took out a small box from his pocket, poured out a white crystal, and looked at the sunlight for a long time before feeding it to his mouth.
The unique sweetness of rock candy overflowed his mouth, and Abin still felt bitter and panicked. How come, how did they get better? When did it happen? How did it get better?
When Zhao Xiaozi came out, what she saw was Abin who had no love and a sad face, and she was a little surprised for a while, and a little funny: "What's wrong with you?"
"You're out?" Abin asked with a smile as he collected his emotions.
"Well, it's out, why are you here?" Zhao Xiaozi asked again.
"Come to your ...... Did you meet his parents?
"See, it's good! What's wrong with you, what's this expression?"
"It's nothing, it's good to see it...... So when are you going to ......? Married?"
"Marriage? What marriage?"
"Huh? wait...... You, you're here to see his parents today, why?"
"Thank you to his parents! Didn't their group invest in building a laboratory to study hypnosis, and invited me to be the team leader, let me come and thank you!"
"So that's the case?!How can it be?!" Abin's face suddenly burst into brilliance, and then angrily kicked the stone pier on the side of the road: "Qian Jiashun, this guy, is really daring and fat, dare to trick me!"
"Uh...... You, wouldn't it be, think that Dai Yiran and I have something, right?" Zhao Xiaozi immediately made a guess.
Abin scratched his head a little embarrassed.
"Don't worry, I won't have anything to do with him, at most I'm just friends!" I don't know why, Zhao Xiaozi explained more.
Abin couldn't help laughing, and before he could speak, Zhao Xiaozi had already added: "It's even more impossible with you!
Although I said that, compared with the seriousness of the previous sentence, the latter sentence obviously has a strong intimate tone of joking.
Ah Bin's smiling eyes narrowed, thought about it, took out a small box of rock candy from his pocket and handed it to Zhao Xiaozi: "Eat one." ”
Zhao Xiaozi took it curiously, saw that it was translucent rock candy, smiled, and threw one in his mouth: "You are really strange, why do you carry a box of rock candy everywhere?"
"Well, remind yourself that life is full of sweetness!" Abin smiled.
It's good, there are good things every year, and there are a lot of them this year! It seems that there is only one opportunity left, Xiaozi can accept herself! Sure enough, life is sweet everywhere! Next time, change to a bigger box with rock candy!
