Chapter 141: Woman

Chen Xihong stepped forward and gave Pan Luyao a hug, and whispered a few words of comfort, so that the anxiety in the girl's heart disappeared.

Later, Rachel also expressed kindness with a hug, expressing the family's acceptance of Pan Luyao.

When Vanessa parked her car and came in, it was officially announced that the welcome party had begun.

Fried steak, grilled lobster, fried fish, sausage shortbread and pudding cake are all ordinary home-cooked dishes, but they are permeated with a unique sense of home, which makes this dinner completely affectionate.

During the dinner, Chen Xihong also took the initiative to talk to Pan Luyao all the time, so that she didn't feel coldly treated, and guided her to naturally join the various topics of the family members here, so that the atmosphere has been maintained very good.

Chen Peng secretly admired what his mother did. It's not that he can't do it, but it certainly seems very deliberate, far less free and unobtrusive than his mother. As for Rachel and Vanessa's mother and daughter, as they have received Western-style education since childhood, they are far more selfish than ordinary Chinese people, and there is still a gap in the smoothness of their personalities, so they rarely deliberately cater to other people's feelings, so they can't do this kind of delicate work.

However, Chen Peng also had other things to do - he took out all kinds of gifts prepared along the way, and then asked Pan Luyao to distribute them to a few people one by one, and there was a lot of laughter and laughter for a while, and the atmosphere was very pleasant.

After dinner, Chen Xihong took the initiative to arrange rooms for Chen Peng and Pan Luyao.

Chen Xihong took Chen Peng and the others to the innermost room on the second floor, pushed open the door, turned on the light, and said, "Xiao Peng, this is the room you slept in before, and the bed and bedding have been replaced with new ones." Stay here tonight. ”

Looking through the door, this is a bedroom of about 20 square meters, there is a small door on the east side, Chen Peng knows that it leads to a separate bathroom, and the large double bed is leaning against the west wall, and there is a bedside table on each side of the bed. There is a lamp on it, and the south side of the room is a set of computer desks and chairs in front of the window, and a tablet computer is placed on the computer desk, everything is new.

"Thank you, Mom, for bothering you." Chen Peng can clearly feel his mother's concern for him from the layout of this room.

"Little thing, okay, I'll go first, and you guys should rest early. You must be tired after such a long journey, take a hot bath. When you sleep beautifully, the jet lag will naturally turn upside down. Chen Xihong kindly tidied up the broken hair on Chen Peng's forehead a little, just like she did for him when she was a child, and then she looked at Pan Luyao and said gently: "Yaoyao, it's okay if I call you like this, right?" ”

"It's okay, aunt, you don't care, in fact, my parents at home like to call me that." Pan Luyao hurriedly said.

"That's good." Chen Xihong smiled and nodded. "Don't be restrained here, just like you're in your own home. If there's anything you're not used to, you can come to me. ”

"Yes, aunt."

Chen Xihong smiled at her son and the two juniors who were likely to be her future daughter-in-law, and turned to leave.

Seeing the elders walk away, Pan Luyao, who is traditional, breathed a sigh of relief.

Chen Peng stepped forward to close the door, then pulled her to sit down on the edge of the bed, and asked, "How do you feel?" ”

"Hmm. Auntie's people are nice, as are Aunt Rachel and Vanessa. Pan Luyao said softly.

"Aunt Rachel and Vanessa have always lived in the West, so their personalities may be a little more self-contained, but people are not difficult to get in touch with, and you will know after a long time." Chen Peng grabbed her hand. Pinched it, it felt good, "What about the environment here?" ”

"It's good, I think it's peaceful and peaceful, just like I saw in British dramas, and I think I'll have no problem adapting to it."

"That's good, you're the best to get used to here. After a few days, Vanessa and I got the company in order, we will change the tourist visa to a work visa, and this time we may stay here for several years, and we can only go back once during the New Year's holidays, you don't care. ”

"Well, I understand, it's okay." Pan Luyao smiled softly.

Chen Peng leaned over and kissed her forehead, and then said, "Then I'll go take a shower first, and I'll change you later, or why don't you come along?" Chen Peng winked at her.

Pan Luyao's face turned red all of a sudden, she shook her head again and again to refuse, and pushed Chen Peng away with all her might, she didn't want to leave the impression of "" on the first day to her future mother-in-law.

Chen Peng smiled, stopped teasing her, found his change of clothes and went straight to the bathroom.

Seeing Chen Peng's figure disappear behind the door, Pan Luyao's originally smiling face suddenly collapsed, and she lay on the bed weakly.

Chen Peng's mother, Chen Xihong, gave her a very good impression, not at all as harsh as the mother-in-law in other people's mouths, and always competed with her future daughter-in-law, which made her feel very lucky, but she didn't expect that the pressure brought by another person was no less than the pressure on her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship she originally imagined.

This person is Vanessa.

For many women, many things about each other can be felt intuitively, and they can know it by just looking at each other.

From the first meeting, she could clearly feel that the other party was a woman with an extremely strong sense of "territory".

In her eyes, Vanessa is like a lion who is very attached to her territory, and she feels that she is regarded by Vanessa as an alien intruder, which is undoubtedly a great provocation for Vanessa, who has been trying to put pressure on her from the beginning to expel her as an uninvited guest from the territory.

This feeling of this villa became even stronger, which made her secretly bitter, but she couldn't say it, could you tell Chen Peng that your sister is very hostile to me?

Forget it, if you think about it, you will know that this kind of words will not have any other results than to create a rift between her and Chen Peng.

At first, she was worried that there was a relationship between Vanessa and Chen Peng, in this way, these two people could be regarded as perfect examples of childhood sweethearts, and she, a latecomer, would become very disadvantaged, but when she added dinner along the way, she found that it was not as she thought, there was only pure family affection between Vanessa and Chen Peng, and no other emotions were mixed.

Then she should be relieved.

That's weird!

Because she really saw that the family relationship between Vanessa and Chen Peng was by no means the kind of family affection of ordinary ordinary families, but several times stronger.

She had a general understanding of the situation of their family from Chen Peng, which is an alternative family composed of two single-parent families. She speculated that perhaps it was because the family did not have an adult male character who could protect them in the process of Chen Peng and Vanessa's growth, which made them attach great importance to each other and act as each other's umbrella roles, so the bond between them was much stronger than that of ordinary siblings.

Pan Luyao didn't know what happened between them, but she could already confirm that Vanessa completely regarded Chen Peng as her personal belongings, and she was the most important and precious one, but now this treasure is about to be taken away by Pan Luyao, what will Vanessa think of Pan Luyao?

A thief who carved a piece of his territory from his territory and also took his most valuable belongings to strengthen the thief?

The two will get along for many years in the future, and it's scary to think about it.

Thinking of this, Pan Luyao felt a terrible headache.

Knock knock!

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

Pan Luyao felt that she stood up, rubbed her face vigorously, put on the most perfect smile of her sense, and then went over to open the door.

The door opened, revealing the tall Vanessa.

She casually glanced at the situation in the room, and then used her height advantage to look down at Pan Luyao condescendingly, and asked, "What about Leon?" ”

"He's gone to take a shower." Pan Luyao smiled even brighter, as if she couldn't feel the oppression of the other party at all, and said softly: "Is there something wrong?" ”

"Well, you can hand over these materials to him later." Vanessa nodded indifferently, and then handed the folder in her hand to Pan Luyao.

"Okay, I got it." Pan Luyao continued to maintain her proper smile. "Is there anything else?"

"Something?"

Vanessa muttered, then looked at Pan Luyao's face for a while, with a somewhat strange look on her face, and after a while, she suddenly stretched out her right index finger and picked it at Pan Luyao's chin, making her face slightly raised.

Pan Luyao was stunned by Vanessa's demeanor for a moment, and then her cheeks flushed, as if she had become the goods selected by the other party, but she did not make drastic actions such as shame and anger, but made her smile gentler and more decent.

Vanessa was also a little strange about Pan Luyao's reaction, and after a while, she put down her hand a little bored after finding that Pan Luyao had no other behavior, showed a meaningful smile to Pan Luyao, and then turned around and left directly.

"Interesting." Her voice came slowly, then slowly faded as her footsteps stretched to the other side of the aisle.

The first "war" died down, and it was only then that Pan Luyao breathed a sigh of relief.

Closing the door, she leaned her back against the door, couldn't help but pout, and reached out to rub her face.

"Who just came?" At this time, the door of the bathroom opened, and Chen Peng, who had wet hair, walked out in a bathrobe, wiping his head with a towel as he walked.

"It's Vanessa." Pan Luyao's expression returned to the same as usual, and she raised the folder in her hand towards Chen Peng, "She said that these materials are for you to see." ”

"Oh, yes, I know what it is. This is not in a hurry, it will be too late to see it tomorrow, you go wash first, let's go to bed early and have a good rest. Chen Peng took the folder and put it on the computer desk.

"yes, okay." Pan Luyao nodded obediently, picked up the change of clothes she had taken out in advance and walked towards the bathroom.

When she closed the door, she made a determined expression at herself in the plane mirror, clenched her fists and waved them before going to take a bath. (To be continued......)
