Xiao Yue has not been in a good mood these days, and it can be clearly seen. When he is in a bad mood, he will not lose his temper, at least in front of Ye Ning and Nan Nan, he has no temper to have.

Nan Nan felt that her father was in a bad mood, from a conversation.

"Dad, you've been distracted by telling me stories these days!" Nan Nan complained.

Xiao Yue didn't speak, and touched Nan Nan's head.

"Dad, what's upset about you?" Nan Nan wondered.

"Daddy isn't unhappy." Xiao Yue replied.

"I don't believe it!" Nan Nan is not stupid, of course she can see it.

"Heh, the reason why people are unhappy is because they are too greedy." Xiao Yue whispered.

"What do you mean?" Nan Nan was confused when she heard it.

Xiao Yue smiled and said softly: "For example, when you don't have a set of Lego, and Dad buys you a set, you will be very happy and satisfied." But when you crave 10 sets of 20 sets, and when you see someone else having 10 sets of 20 sets of Lego, you will be unhappy, even if Dad buys you five sets, you will still be unhappy. ”

In Ye Ning's words, that is, resources are limited and infinite.

Nan Nan thought about it and felt that it made sense, but after thinking about it again, she was confused again.

Daddy wants Lego?

And Nan Nan felt that her father was in a bad mood again, from her father's phone.

In the past few days, Dad has made a few phone calls, but the tone is not very good, and it seems that the other end of the phone is scared enough.

He was stunned, this kind of father is very different from the father who usually plays with him.

He couldn't help but lean over and ask, "Dad, what were you talking about just now?" ”

Xiao Yue put away his mobile phone and said in a solemn tone: "Dad is going to open a café." ”

Yes?

Nan Nan wondered, thought for a while and said: "The café is not easy to open, the competition is too big, my mother opened one before, and I only closed it when I was in trouble." ”

In fact, Ye Ning didn't talk to him much about these things, but the villain knew more or less about the occasional phone call or something.

Xiao Yue listened and smiled: "Let's take down the café opposite first, we won't dominate that business district." ”

Nan Nan blinked: "Then how do you bring him down?" ”

After Xiao Yue handed his son a cup of hot milk, he began to preach and preach: "Low-price strategy, buy one get one free, lottery coffee cups, and send someone to find faults, he naturally can't open it." ”

"This ...... Is that okay? Although Nan Nan didn't understand, she still felt weird.

Xiao Yue raised his eyebrows: "Why not?" Within a week, let him close the door. ”

Nan Nan thought for a while, figured it out, and suddenly felt that her father was so powerful: "Dad, you are so smart, why can't my mother think of this idea!" ”

Xiao Yue touched his son's head: "Let's go, let's do this first." ”

************************************

Ye Ning didn't expect Huo Chen to really return to China.

Huo Chen's words were sincere, hoping to meet and have a good talk.

Ye Ning felt that there was nothing to talk about, so he wanted to hang up the phone directly.

Huo Chen hurriedly said: "Ning Ning, in the United States, I am sorry for you, but even if we can't be lovers, aren't we friends, aren't we classmates, we have known each other for so many years, after I returned to China, I just want to catch up with my old friends, so you don't want to see each other?" Or do you still have a lot of love for me? ”

Ye Ning smiled helplessly: "Huo Chen, when I hear your name now, it's no different from hearing A, B, C, and D on the street, don't mention hatred to me, I almost forgot about that little thing." Now I don't have time to see you, because I'm busy, I have to work and take care of my son, do you think I have time to go out and have coffee and chat with people and have lunch? ”

Huo Chen hurriedly said, "I'm downstairs in your office building, you want to eat at noon, right?" Why don't we just have a bite to eat and just talk? ”

Ye Ning can think about it: "Okay, I will start eating at 12 o'clock at noon, and I must come back before half past one, just a little time." ”

Huo Chen was naturally full of promises.

When he arrived downstairs, Huo Chen was already waiting there.

Huo Chen, who is already thirty years old, is naturally not the young boy he was back then, wearing a suit, tie, and a simple flat haircut, he looks quite energetic.

As soon as Huo Chen saw Ye Ning, he smiled bitterly: "Ning Ning, I only returned to China yesterday." ”

I only returned to China yesterday, and I can't wait to find myself today, Ye Ning doesn't think that he is so important.

But she didn't say anything, just looked nearby: "What do you want to eat, I invite you." ”

Huo Chen didn't have anything to pick, and when he saw a Western restaurant next to him, he said, "Let's eat steak." ”

Ye Ning nodded.

I have eaten too much steak in the United States, and I still have to eat steak when I come back, Ye Ning thought at this time, in fact, Huo Chen has been almost Westernized, at least in terms of eating habits.

The two of them came to the restaurant side by side, sat down, ordered food, and Huo Chen asked about Ye Ning's situation now.

Ye Ning replied casually: "Nan Nan is six years old, and I am about to go to elementary school, and the child has grown up, and I seem to be old, and I haven't grown much, so I just mix in my friend's company." ”

So he asked Huo Chen: "What about you, will you stay for a long time after you come back, or will you visit your relatives?" ”

Huo Chen said that this time he came back directly to K University as a university teacher, although K University is not a top 3 school in the country, but the environmental location and academic atmosphere are good, and the conditions for him to open this time are also very attractive, so he came back.

"Actually, I didn't expect to get such a job with good treatment and prospects, after all, it is not easy to get into domestic universities now, who knew that the president of K University specifically mentioned it, added to me, and put forward such good conditions, and I came back. After coming back, I was going to take a look at the house first, and the domestic housing prices have risen sharply in recent years, and I still want to pick and choose, who knows that K University will be directly divided, and the prime location is next to K University, and everything is convenient. Huo Chen looked at Ye Ning's eyes and said so.

Ye Ning nodded: "Congratulations, how old are you, it is still such a good condition to go to K University to become a professor at a young age, they will definitely attach importance to you in the future, and the future is very good." ”

Huo Chen held the knife and fork in his hands, his movements were elegant, and when he heard Ye Ning say this, he smiled:

"Ning Ning, it's time for Nan Nan to go to school now, right? Although I just came back, I also know that it is very important to enroll in primary school now, and there is a K University attached to the primary school over there, and I will go straight from primary school to K University High School, and you also know the strength of K University High School, if you like it, just get Nan Nan's household registration to me. ”

Ye Ning felt funny and raised his eyebrows: "We are not related, why bother, child, I don't expect him to become a talent, just grow up peacefully." ”

Huo Chen sighed, stopped what he was doing, and looked at Ye Ning like that.

In fact, Huo Chen knew well about Nan Nan's life experience, and only vaguely knew that something had happened to Ye Ning, and she gave birth to a child inexplicably, and she didn't know the father of the child. In this case, Huo Chen inevitably had some bad associations.

He thought about this question in his heart, and after thinking about it for a long time, he finally made up his mind.

Now he stretched out his hand and gently held Ye Ning's hand: "Ning Ning, you are not young now, and you have a Nan Nan by your side, at our age, in this case, let alone romantic love, it is still suitable to find someone who knows the roots, finds someone who is willing to be good to Nan Nan, and has the ability to be good to Nan Nan." I know that there were some things that were wrong to me, but people make mistakes, especially in a foreign country, and there are times when I can't control myself. Now that these things have passed, I also know that I was wrong at the beginning, the mistakes I made, I will not make them in the future, now looking back, there is no more suitable than the two of us, Ning Ning, you have always been dead-eyed, stubborn, and admit death, but at our age, you can give a step, and you can breathe a sigh of relief when the time comes, it will be better for you and Nan Nan. ”

Ye Ning looked down at Huo Chen and held his hand, which was as white and slender as ten years ago.

Huo Chen and Xiao Yue are very different in temperament, if one of the two people is jade, then the other is a piece of hard iron, and this difference can also be reflected in the hands.

She stared at the hands, but she thought, Xiao Yue's hands are not as white as others, Xiao Yue's finger bones will be longer, Xiao Yue's hands are also very powerful, when Xiao Yue's hands touch herself, the temperature will be surprisingly high, making her wonder if she or Xiao Yue has a fever.

Just when she was about to withdraw her hand, her mobile phone rang, and when she took the phone, she saw that it was Xiao Yue.

She smiled and took it.

Xiao Yue's mobile phone, talking to Nan Nan, sounded that the background was not at home, but like in a shopping mall.

"Mom, Daddy is going to open a café!" Nan Nan was looking forward to it.

"Cafe?" Ye Ning was stunned for a moment, and said in wonder, "Why did you open a café?" ”

"I don't know, but my father said that he was going to squeeze the new one that opened last month on the other side, so that they couldn't do it, and he would drive a big one when the time came, and he would have to get that group of people to come over to work for him."

Ye Ning was even more stunned when she heard it, she probably understood why her café couldn't be opened, but now Xiao Yue wants to use the same method to squeeze people out? One report and one report? He's a bit cautious about some things, but isn't that too much of a fuss?

Ye Ning couldn't cry or laugh, and had a headache again: "Don't make trouble, the café is not for fun." ”

Who knew that as soon as she finished saying this, she heard a deep voice ask, "Where are you now?" ”

It's Xiao Yue.

His voice was cold and deep, even a little oppressive of questioning.

Ye Ning looked at Huo Chen in front of him, but remembered that in that letter, Xiao Yue cared deeply about Huo Chen. She hesitated for a moment, smiled and said, "I'll have a casual meal near the company." ”

"Oh, alone?"

Ye Ning nodded stubbornly and said softly, "Hmm." ”

On the other end of the phone, after Xiao Yue heard it, he paused before he smiled calmly and said, "In this case, I took Nan Nan out to go shopping, which happened to be near your company, why don't we go over and eat together?" ”

Ye Ning looked at the time: "Forget it, the lunch break will pass quickly, and I'm busy at work." ”

As soon as these words came out, there was silence on the other end of the phone, so that Ye Ning thought that the phone had hung up, looked at the screen, and continued, she had to say tentatively: "What's wrong?" ”

Xiao Yue on the other side of the phone smiled: "It's okay, then you can eat." ”

After that, he hung up the phone.

After Ye Ning hung up the phone, he found that Huo Chen had been staring at him.

"What's wrong with the café? You opened a café before, and the business was not doing well? Huo Chen asked with concern.

"Yes, it's not easy to do, so I just stopped, and now I work for people, worry-free." Ye Ning was a little absent-minded, she always felt that Xiao Yue's last smile just now was cold and warm.

When Huo Chen heard this, his eyes were full of gentle pity: "Ning Ning, you are just too stubborn, you have been since you were a child, and you are still like this." In the past, in the United States, you were responsible for everything, but if you had relied on me more at that time, we wouldn't have been—"

Thinking of the phone call that Xiao Yue hung up at the end, Ye Ning had no appetite now. She lied to Xiao Yue today, and she felt very bad after telling the lie, and Xiao Yue hung up her phone, which was simply impossible before.

In this way, she really didn't have any idea of eating the steak in front of her, not to mention that Huo Chen on the other side was still babbling something self-righteously.

In the end, she finally frowned: "Huo Chen, Nan Nan is my son, not your son." In fact, when a child is a person, when his parents are poor, he will be poor, and if his parents have conditions, he will enjoy happiness, which is natural, even if he can't get better conditions with me, he blames him for his own reincarnation skills. I can't push myself to get better conditions for him. ”

She stood up, picked up her satchel, and calmly looked at Huo Chen, who was already frowning after hearing her words.

"Huo Chen, let's eat together now, as old friends and classmates, don't mention our part, that part is over."

After saying this, she left the restaurant without looking back.

After walking out of the restaurant, she remembered that she hadn't paid the bill, and that she had a treat.

But think about it, forget it, it's all a trivial matter, a matter of little money!

After returning to the company in a hurry, the female colleague greeted her mysteriously: "After going out to eat for so long, you went to dinner with your handsome Porsche guy?" ”

Ye Ning shook his head: "It's nothing!" ”

After her car was repaired, she hadn't used Xiao Yue's driver, and she hadn't seen Andy for a long time.

Who knew that the female colleague didn't believe it, and frowned: "Don't pretend, we saw it next to Kerry just now, didn't you just go to eat Western food?" ”

Kerry is the name of the western restaurant where Ye Ning ate steak just now, and she suddenly felt a little numb when she heard this:

"You mean to see Andy next to Kerry? Or did you see Andy driving a Porsche? ”

The female colleague thought hard: "I saw Andy, and Porsche seems to have seen it, is there any difference?" ”

Ye Ning cautiously asked, "That, do you still see other people in the car?" ”

The female colleague thought hard again, and finally gave up: "How do I know this, as soon as I saw that handsome guy at that time, I paid attention to him wholeheartedly!" This man is in good shape! ”

Ye Ning shook her head in frustration, stroked her forehead with a headache, she recalled the scene when Xiao Yue called herself, that tone, unprecedented, could it really be a misunderstanding?

When she thought of this, Ye Ning suddenly found that she was now suffering from gains and losses, and she had no intention of working, it was like secretly having a tryst with a man to be caught by her husband!
