Chapter Seventy-Five: Coincidence

When Tang Tang received the call, Ji Xincheng had already resumed work at the insistence of Director Ouyang.

Thinking of Xu Tong looking at her delicate big eyes, Tang Tang couldn't find a reason to refuse for a while, so he agreed.

Ji Xincheng came home in the evening, and after washing, the two of them nested on the sofa to drink red wine and watch movies.

Tang Tang told Ji Xincheng about Xu Mo's invitation, but Ji Xincheng didn't think about it and said no.

"The day after tomorrow is a daytime play, and the fireworks show is at night, why don't you go?"

Ji Xincheng glanced at Tang Tang and said with a smile:

"People say to invite me, that's just a pretext, I'm afraid you're embarrassed, I won't understand, you go by yourself, ah? I can help you pick out your clothes. ”

"Ji Xincheng, can you be normal? I really found that since you have been with Gu Shaoze, this brain circuit has become different from before! What you say here has another meaning, why did you never know that you still know so much about other people's emotional problems before? ”

Tang Tang crackled and counted Ji Xincheng, suddenly stopped, and glanced at Ji Xincheng with some anxiety.

"Ah, what did you just say? I didn't hearβ€”"

Ji Xincheng watched the movie and responded casually, obviously her mind was in the movie, and she didn't listen to what Tang Tang was saying at all.

However, Tang Tang was still on the other end of the sofa, kicked Ji Xincheng with his foot, and asked:

"In the past few days, the surname Gu has not been looking for you?"

Ji Xincheng turned around, "No, what's wrong?" ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"On the day I went to the playground, he called and I turned it off. In the past few days, the phone has not been called again, I think he probably really figured it out, so forget it. ”

"That's it?"

Listening to her light and breezy manner, as leisurely as if she was talking about other people's affairs, Tang Tang couldn't help but sit up straight, and said:

"Ji Xincheng, be serious, do you really plan to divorce this marriage?"

"Do you think I've been joking?"

"No, I just think you're angry."

"Angry words are also words from the heart."

Ji Xincheng's eyes fell on the movie screen again, and he didn't answer her directly.

"But I still think you're not done!"

Tang Tang looked at Ji Xincheng's side face and said so.

"Look at me, I'm not the only one who understands other people's emotional problems very well!"

Tang Tang was a little discouraged by Ji Xincheng's gag answer, thinking that she was tired from working all day, and there was no hurry to put this matter aside and mention it again, so he said:

"I don't care, anyway, I promised that Xu Mo for you, you must attend with me the night after tomorrow!"

Seeing that Ji Xincheng turned his head, and without waiting for her to answer, Tang Tang added: "If you don't go, then I won't go either, you decide for yourself!" ”

Ji Xincheng looked at Tang Tang funny, and said helplessly:

"Go, I'll go!"

The fireworks display was held in a farm near the city center, and there was such an empty and quiet place hidden in a lot where every inch of land was valuable, which made Ji Xincheng and Tang Tang sigh secretly, this is not something that can be done with money.

It seems that this Xu Mo's friend is very unusual.

Under the guidance of the farm staff, the two parked the car properly, and before they got out of the car, they saw Xu Mo walking towards them from a distance with his son.

"Miss Ji, Miss Tang, welcome!"

Although the theme is to watch fireworks, Xu Mo is wearing formal clothes, and even his son Xu Tong is wearing a decent bow tie.

Xu Tong's round eyes seemed to be even rounder after seeing Tang Tang, and his whole gaze was fixed on Tang Tang's face, unwilling to stagger for a moment.

Tang Tang saw that he looked cute, so he reached out and touched him, and praised him by the way:

"Xiao Tong is so well-behaved!"

Xu Mo was very surprised by Tang Tang's actions.

"What's wrong? Isn't it okay to touch his head? ”

Sensing Xu Mo's gaze, Tang Tang hurriedly withdrew his hand.

"Nope."

Xu Mo calmed down and said: "Xiao Tong has a slight cleanliness habit, so he doesn't let people touch his head easily, and sometimes even I can't, it seems that he really likes Miss Tang." ”

Xu Mo was surprised, with a smile in his eyes.

When Tang Tang heard this, he turned to Ji Xincheng uncomfortably, and talked to her about him:

"Are we not dressed a little grandly?"

Tonight's Tang Tang is wearing a light yellow silk jumpsuit, and Ji Xincheng is a plain white linen dress with flat shoes, both of them are dressed casually.

Ji Xincheng hadn't answered yet, and Xu Mo said on the side:

"It doesn't matter, I didn't invite many people at night, they are all familiar friends, you can feel free and feel comfortable."

As he spoke, Xu Mo led his son in front of him, guided them the way, and said that he would introduce them to a few friends.

Coming to the center of the farm, there is a three-story wooden building, the first floor is a living room, the design is both natural and elegant, the whole is a pastoral simple style, very warm.

Almost at a glance, Tang Tang and Ji Xincheng fell in love with this place.

The two of them looked at each other, and their eyes were full of sighs.

The owners of the farm were a husband and wife, both of whom were Xu Mo's classmates, and they didn't find anyone on the first floor, so Xu Mo took them both up to the second floor.

The small building is high, and the view from the second floor is very wide, and on the balcony, the protagonist and his wife welcome them warmly.

"Let me guess, this is Tang Tang and this is Xin Cheng, right?"

The hostess was petite, and against the backdrop of her husband's tall figure, she looked even more birdish. When she came up, she held Tang Tang and Ji Xincheng's hands, a little too intimate.

Ji Xincheng and Tang Tang were obviously uncomfortable, but they were still polite and greeted each other with a smile.

The man hurriedly pulled his wife's hand back and said:

"I'm sorry, she's such a self-acquainted character, mainly because I've heard the names of the two for a long time."

It's been a long time since you've heard their names?

After all, Ji Xincheng is a star, and it is normal to hear about it, but Tang Tang ......

Tang Tang's eyes turned and fell in Xu Mo's direction, but he didn't expect the other party to be looking at her quietly, and he couldn't help but feel hot at the root of his ears, and immediately lowered his eyes.

The protagonist introduces himself, her husband's name is Jiandong, and his wife's name is Aya.

"Your house is beautiful!"

Ji Xincheng had already greeted them, and only in this way would Tang Tang not fall into embarrassment even more.

Aya arranged for them to sit down and poured them fruit tea, as if they had known each other for a long time.

There was a happy look in her eyes and she said, "My husband designed it himself." ”

Jiandong hurriedly said: "The idea was provided by a friend of mine, he doesn't do architecture, but he has quite ideas in this regard." ”

"Yes, yes, this friend is here today."

Aya echoed, turned her head sideways and asked Xu Mo, "Eh, what about them?" ”

Xu Mo also seemed to be looking for someone, and while wiping his son's hands, he replied:

"I was still here just now, maybe I went over there to prepare."

For the fireworks to be set off in a while, on the grassland by the river, I saw a group of people busy there from a distance.

"Jiandong, you can also go over and take a look, do you want to help."

Aya said to her husband.

When Jian Dong heard this, he immediately got up and beckoned Xu Mo, "Let's go?" ”

Xu Mo glanced at his son, obviously he felt that Jiandong was an unreasonable proposal.

Aya said: "With Tang Tang here, I think you can relax a little." ”

Saying this, Tang Tang was drinking tea and almost choked, Xu Mo's attention didn't seem to be on Tang Tang, but he handed her a tissue as soon as possible.

"Xiao Tong, you and Sister Tang Tang stay here for a while, is it okay? Dad went to see the preparations for the fireworks and helped his uncle with them. ”

Xu Mo asked Xu Tong, Xu Tong's eyes were fixed on Tang Tang's face, and he nodded obediently.

"Look, I'll just say you don't have to be that nervous." Aya said with a smile.

Xu Mo turned to Tang Tang, "Miss Tang......"

"Go ahead, I'll watch your son!"

Tang Tang almost didn't dare to look him in the eyes, interrupting her to thank him and let him go as soon as possible.

"Okay, if there's something, you can call me."

"Don't worry, I'm here too!"

Aya winked at Xu Mo to reassure him.

Ji Xincheng held a cup and drank hot tea, looked at Aya opposite, and then looked at Tang Tang and Xu Mo beside him, and couldn't help laughing.

She rarely saw Tang Tang's panicked appearance, and she already thought of a lot in her heart.

"The fireworks display at night was prepared for Jiandong's friend's wife."

After Jiandong and Xu Mo went downstairs, Tang Tang sat in Xu Mo's place, although the little guy didn't seem to have anyone to take care of, Tang Tang was still ready to be on call at any time.

Aya looked at Tang Tang with a smile, but said that to Ji Xincheng.

Ji Xincheng reacted, the hostess was chatting with her, afraid that she would feel that she was left out.

took Aya's words and said, "Looking at the venue they prepared, the scale is not small, right?" ”

"Yes, the pyrotechnic design team was specially invited, and I just won the award in Japan a while ago, and this is the first time in addition to the competition."

"That's really good."

Aya, like Ji Xincheng, looked at the river and sighed: "Yes, I said that I made his wife angry, and I am afraid that I won't be able to coax him back without a snack." ”

Ji Xincheng glanced back at Aya, she could feel that Aya was very happy.

I can't help but feel a little envious.

"What's wrong, Xiao Tong?"

Hearing Tang Tang ask Xu Tong like this, Aya and Ji Xincheng both looked at them, only to see Xu Tong's small palm gently shaking on Tang Tang's wrist, as if he was in need, but he didn't open his mouth, and no one could understand.

"Do you want more cookies?"

Aya asked when she saw that the plate in front of him was empty.

"Do you want to wipe your hands?"

Ji Xincheng thought that Xu Mo said that his son had a slight cleanliness habit, so he handed Tang a tissue.

But obviously not, Xu Tong still shook Tang Tang's hand like that.

"Do you want to go to the bathroom?"

Hearing Tang Tang ask, Xu Tong nodded.

But Tang Tang was embarrassed, did she really want to send the little boy she met for the second time to the bathroom? Asking for help, he looked at Aya.

Aya smiled: "The bathroom is on the third floor, I'll take you there." ”

Tang Tang looked like he was being driven to the shelves, and was encouraged by Aya to take the little boy to the third floor.

On the balcony where Ji Xincheng was the only one left, it was quiet all of a sudden, and he could vaguely hear the voices of people talking in the grassland in the distance, with excitement and occasional laughter.

On the wall of the table, there are many photos that the protagonist is happy to show to the guests.

Ji Xinluo got up and walked closer to see those photos, most of them were photos of Jiandong and Aya, as well as photos of some activities they held, diving, calligraphy, Chinese painting, marathon, and then in the colorful faces, she suddenly saw Gu Shaoze's face.

That's right, it's him!

He and Jiandong are pictured side by side in front of the farm's newly built three-story building, with the time and notes below the photo: designer and inspirational owner.

Ji Xincheng was stunned, and suddenly all the previous doubts were cleared up in his mind.

The friend that Aya said made his wife angry was Gu Shaoze!

She unconsciously sank her face, took her mobile phone and bag, and didn't wait for Tang Tang and the others to go downstairs, she wanted to leave this place directly.

However, when he reached the staircase on the second floor, he was stopped by Gu Shaoze who came up from the bottom of the stairs.

He seemed to have run from somewhere, and he was still panting slightly, and when he saw the bag in Ji Xincheng's hand, he reached out and took it in the next second.

Ji Xincheng didn't let him take it, and wanted to drag it back, but she pulled him into her arms.

"I'm sorry!"

The man hugged her tightly, anxious to regain his loss, and said to her in his ear.

Ji Xincheng only felt annoyed, how could there be such a coincidence, it seemed that Xu Mo invited them to be instructed by Gu Shaoze, she thought of Tang Tang, so she desperately pushed Gu Shaoze.

"You let Xu Mo deliberately approach us?"

Gu Shaoze's hand fell, moved to her waist, pressed her tightly in his arms, bowed his head and said:

"If I have that ability, I can't see my wife for so many days?"

With the joy of reuniting after farewell, he didn't want to let go of the slightest bit no matter how violent she did in his chest.

"You dare to say it's a coincidence?"

"It's really a coincidence that Xu Mo met you."

Gu Shaoze locked her eyes with anger, and didn't dare to slack off, "That day, Xu Mo came to me and asked me to help him check someone, I was shocked when I saw the name, it was actually Tang Tang." asked him why he wanted to investigate, and he said that his son's illness seemed to be saved, and the other party was Tang Tang. I just know what you've seen in the playground. ”

"Xiao Tong is sick? What disease? ”

"Autism, Xu Mo's wife died in a car accident two years ago, Xu Tong was less than four years old at the time, and he witnessed his mother's death with his own eyes, and then he was reluctant to speak. Xu Mo said that Xu Tong might have taken Tang Tang as his mother, and the psychiatrist said that this was a good thing......

When Gu Shaoze talked about this process seriously, the strength in his hand was a little loose, and Ji Xincheng pushed hard and left his embrace.

"So you used Xu Mo to trick us here?"

Ji Xincheng retreated to the balcony and didn't let Gu Shaoze get close across the table.

"How can this be called utilization, his son was going to come over to watch the fireworks, and he was also going to invite Tang Tang to come out, but there was no suitable opportunity before."

He was still laughing? How could he laugh!

Ji Xincheng stared at that smiling face, feeling that it was very eye-catching, and she didn't want to look at it for a second, but why couldn't she take her eyes off?

"Get out of the way, I'm getting out of here!"
