Chapter 044: Turn the other cheek
Yan Caiying said with a smile: "With the relationship between you and me, it's just a trip, which is very convenient, so where can we talk about any trouble or not?" I remember you saying that you were in a hurry to get this thing, and you asked me to hurry up and help you find it. I think you must be in a hurry, since you can't leave, then I should run more. ”
Speaking, without waiting for Xuan Ziming to speak, Yan Caiying had already nodded to Yan Shuiran, who was sitting next to him, and said, "Show that Buddha statue to Uncle Xuan, so that Uncle Xuan can determine whether it is what he is looking for." ”
Yan Shuiran answered loudly, and really stood up and put the box in his hand on Xuan Ziming's desk, so that Xuan Ziming didn't even have time to say a word of refusal.
She neatly opened the box, took out the Buddha statue inside, and put it directly in front of Xuan Ziming.
Although he had already seen this Buddha statue for a long time, but when he saw it again, Xuan Ziming still had a feeling of palpitation in his heart, and he was frightened by the hideous expression of the Buddha statue.
He subconsciously tilted his head, not wanting to look at the Buddha statue, and looked like he couldn't avoid it.
At this moment, even Yan Caiying had already seen that Xuan Ziming's attitude towards this Buddha statue was a little wrong.
Yan Shuiran sneered in her heart, but pretended to be ignorant and said, "Uncle Xuan, this Buddha statue looks so scary, why do you want to buy such a thing?" ”
"Hehe, hehe." Xuan Ziming smiled awkwardly, but the expression on his face was very ugly, "I told your father that I wanted a special Buddha statue, but it's not such a scary Buddha statue!" ”
As he spoke, Xuan Ziming looked at Yan Caiying as if he had found an excuse, sighed and said helplessly: "Old Yan, how did you find the Buddha statue, why did you find such an ugly thing back?" ”
Yan Caiying was almost laughed at by Xuan Ziming.
"Xuan Dong, you can take a closer look, the shape and size of this Buddha statue are all the same as you described to me at the beginning." was turned around by Xuan Ziming and refused to admit it in person, Yan Caiying's face suddenly darkened, "If this is for no reason, will I take the initiative to accept such a thing in my hand?!" ”
Yan Caiying directly called Xuan Ziming "Xuan Dong", which has already expressed Yan Caiying's mood and attitude at the moment. If Xuan Ziming still insists that Yan Caiying himself received the wrong thing, I am afraid that the relationship between the two families, which is gradually drifting apart, will fall directly into the freezing point.
Of course, Xuan Ziming had heard this, but even so, he must not leave this Buddha statue behind!
At the beginning, the man told him that as long as he stayed with this Buddha statue for a long time, he would be affected by the Buddha statue. He tried to let Yan Caiying collect this thing, in order to keep this thing by Yan Caiying's side forever, not to Yan Caiying to bring this Buddha statue to him!
For this reason, even if he has to put the face-turning between him and Yan Caiying on the agenda in advance, it is worth it!
"Lao Yan, with your friendship with me, whether it is public or private, I don't need to make such a big joke with you, right?" Xuan Ziming was still playing a round with a sincere face, "What I told you at the beginning was that I wanted a Buddha statue with a unique shape and a mighty face, not like it is now, with a fierce face that people don't even dare to look at it!" Such a thing, Lao Yan, you say, how can I give it away? Isn't that a brain disease?! ”
Yan Caiying was furious: "Xuan Ziming! That's not what you said in the first place! This Buddha statue, I went to find it exactly according to your wishes. If it weren't for you, how could I have accepted such a thing?! Now you're talking nonsense with your eyes open, are you because I'm so confused that I can't remember what happened that day?! ”
Being able to force Yan Caiying, a good-tempered person, to be so angry already shows his anger at this matter.
But no matter whether Yan Caiying questioned or persuaded her, Xuan Ziming gritted his teeth and refused to admit this matter, and always insisted that Yan Caiying himself remembered the mistake and received the wrong thing.
Yan Caiying was so angry that he kept walking back and forth in the office with his waist crossed.
Yan Shuiran had been standing aside without saying a word, she had already determined what she was thinking.
Seeing that the two of them finally stopped, Yan Shuiran reinstalled the Buddha statue and said to Yan Caiying with a calm face: "Dad, since Uncle Xuan said that we received the wrong thing, we can't force this Buddha statue to Uncle Xuan, why don't we go back first?" ”
As soon as these words came out, Xuan Ziming and Yan Caiying were stunned.
Only then did they remember that when they were arguing, there was a Yan Shuiran standing next to them!
Xuan Ziming originally wanted to show an amiable elder image in front of Yan Shuiran, but now his image is estimated to have been almost ruined in Yan Shuiran's heart. What's more, now that this Buddha statue has fallen into the hands of Yan Caiying, it was still hugged by Yan Shuiran all the way, so the value of Yan Shuiran's little chess piece in Xuan Ziming's mind is nothing important.
He sat comfortably in his office chair and looked at the Yan family's father and daughter like watching a show.
Xuan Ziming also wanted to know if Yan Caiying would just leave.
Looking at Yan Shuiran's eyes and looking at the seriousness in Yan Shuiran's eyes, Yan Caiying realized how out of shape she was in front of her daughter.
No matter what, he shouldn't have shown such an angry and irrational side in front of his daughter.
"Okay, let's go back first." Yan Caiying calmed down, and rarely squeezed out a smile to her daughter.
Yan Shuiran also smiled.
Seeing this, Xuan Ziming hurriedly said: "That's right, old Yan." You bring this Buddha statue back first, and I will ask you to continue to help me find the Buddha statue!" ”
"Xuan Dong doesn't need to say any more." Yan Caiying's face sank, and she said coldly, "Xuan Dong's requirements are special, and our antique temple villain is small, I'm afraid that we may not be able to meet Xuan Dong's requirements." If Xuan Dong really wants to find any Buddha statues, he can't help with a bigger antique store! ”
As soon as the words fell, Yan Caiying had already nodded at Yan Shuiran and said, "Ranran, let's go." ”
Yan Shuiran responded, holding the box containing the Buddha statue, and followed behind Yan Caiying.
"Hey, Lao Yan, you said you have a ...... temper" Xuan Ziming was about to pretend to continue to say something, but Yan Caiying ignored him at all and walked out on his own.
The door of the office was closed, and the corners of Xuan Ziming's mouth rose irrepressibly.
It wasn't until she returned to the antique shop that Yan Caiying's face looked much better.
Yan Shuiran looked at the expression on his face, and said cautiously: "Dad, since Uncle Xuan doesn't want this Buddha statue, it is estimated that the antique shop is not easy to sell, so why don't you buy it back privately from Dad, and let me take it home?" ”
