Back at the Jingjia Mansion, Xia Lan had already instructed the kitchen to prepare a large table of delicious dishes, many of which were Chen Mengyao's favorite dishes, as soon as they were served, Chen Mengyao discovered this, and it felt good to be taken seriously, and it also made her feel very warm.

didn't see Jing Chengxu appear for a long time, Jing Shaoqing naturally wouldn't ask, Chen Mengyao asked Xia Lan: "Auntie, where is my uncle?" Why don't you see others? ”

Xia Lan glanced at Jing Shaoqing: "It's in the upstairs study, maybe ...... I was afraid that Shaoqing would be unhappy when he saw him, so he hid. I persuaded it, but it didn't work. Yaoyao, can you go and call him with Shaoqing? ”

Jing Shaoqing is still very resistant: "I don't go, it's like someone begging for food, if you want to eat, come down, and forget if you don't eat." ”

Chen Mengyao secretly kicked him: "What are you talking about?" How did you promise me on the way back? Hurry up, come with me! ”

Jing Shaoqing had no choice but to take Chen Mengyao, so he went upstairs with her extremely reluctantly. Before arriving at the study, he didn't plan to go in, just stood at the door, Chen Mengyao didn't force him, raised his hand and knocked on the door: "Uncle, it's time to eat, Shaoqing and I are back." ”

Jing Chengxu quickly opened the door of the study, with a kind and decent smile on his face: "Okay, I'll go down immediately." ”

Jing Shaoqing turned around and left when he heard this, Chen Mengyao smiled slightly awkwardly, and followed downstairs.

Soon, Jing Chengxu went downstairs and sat down, on the surface it seemed that the family was in harmony, but in fact the atmosphere was not so good, but a little subtle. Chen Mengyao didn't know what to say to enliven the atmosphere, she bit her chopsticks and was stunned, if every time she came here to eat in the future, she would be so scared that she didn't want to come......

Xia Lan gave Chen Mengyao a chopstick dish: "Yaoyao, come back with Shaoqing more in the future." She can only count on Chen Mengyao now, if there is no Chen Mengyao in the middle, Jing Chengxu and Jing Shaoqing's father and son may not even be able to sit and eat together.

Chen Mengyao met Xia Lan's complicated gaze, and suddenly felt that she had a heavy responsibility: "Okay, it will definitely be." Anyway, it's troublesome for us to go back and cook by ourselves, if you don't dislike us, we will come to eat often in the future. ”

Xia Lan smiled: "Of course not, how can anyone dislike his own family?" I like you from the bottom of my heart, I don't want our relationship to be like a mother-in-law and a daughter-in-law, but I want you to treat me as a mother and I treat you as a daughter. Shaoqing doesn't have a younger brother or sister or anything, I've always wanted a daughter, and now it's finally going to be fulfilled. ”

Chen Mengyao was a little embarrassed, did Xia Lan really have no opinion on her? Do you really like her from the bottom of your heart?

Suddenly found that Jing Chengxu and Jing Shaoqing had not spoken, and she started to be a peacemaker in the middle: "Uncle, you must be very good at painting, right?" I also learned to paint, but after graduation, I became a designer, and I didn't develop in pure painting, and now I work under Shaoqing. ”

Jing Chengxu naturally exuded confidence and calmness in the face of his own strengths, and he no longer spared words like gold: "It's okay." In the line of painting, the emphasis is on persistence. Every path is not so easy to walk, and I have taken many students, most of whom have changed careers, and only a very few have persevered. Either way, it's good for you. ”

Jing Shaoqing's eyes showed a few uncertain emotions, as if he was mocking, and he seemed to be enduring something. For him, Jing Chengxu left their mother and son for more than 20 years just to paint, and when he saw Jing Chengxu's look when he mentioned painting, he felt uncomfortable and panicked. Even if he is back now, in Jing Chengxu's heart, painting is more important, right?

After all, he still couldn't promise Chen Mengyao, so he got up with a cold face and went back to the car to smoke, intending to leave.

Xia Lan's face froze, Jing Chengxu also resumed his silence, and the atmosphere dropped to freezing point for a while.

Chen Mengyao was a little helpless about such a scene, of course she couldn't stay, so she said hello to the second elder and followed outside: "Jing Shaoqing, why are you like this?" Didn't you say that you should look forward? Can't you be nice to your dad? We're getting engaged and we're definitely going to have to come back for dinner more often in the future, and I'm embarrassed in the middle of it every time! Your mom wants me to persuade you to forgive your dad, and I think so too, but you've always been like this...... I'm not asking you to respect him right away, be kind, or at least don't embarrass everyone......"

On other issues, Jing Shaoqing can laugh and discuss with her, but this matter is not good. After all, after more than 20 years of shadow, he wanted to forgive, but every time he met with Jing Chengxu, he found that he couldn't do it at all.

He smoked a cigarette and didn't know how to respond, that kind of complicated emotion, Chen Mengyao may not understand.
