Chapter 65: Tiger Oil
On the baby's birthday, Zhou Yiyan's cloth book was still not finished after all, and she bought a six-sided drum music box for the baby.
Ho has been calling and chatting with her every week since that trip to the aquarium.
She and Zhou Jianye are now helping Zhou Yao manage the company, although life is not as good as when the Zhou family was prosperous, but compared to the previous time when he was poor, it is much better.
He Fengying's headache now is that Zhou Yao seems to have fallen in love with a college student who came to their company for an internship during this time, and often uses his identity as a boss to harass others in the workplace, and the girl has come to her to cry several times, and said that if Zhou Zong does this again, she will resign.
He Fengying didn't believe that her son would be interested in such a yellow-haired girl, but the fact was that Zhou Yao really liked someone else, and asked He Fengying to leave this matter alone, he had his own measure.
He Fengying was going to be angry with him.
She didn't tell Zhou Yiyan about these troubles, because Zhou Yiyan and Zhou Yao have always been at odds, and she must have heard that even if she doesn't pour cold water, it's good, and she will definitely not help her make up her mind.
Therefore, He Fengying naturally doesn't remember her grandson's birthday, although Zhou Yiyan's relationship with her has eased, but she still has a grudge with Zhou Jianye and Zhou Yao, so the baby did not invite He Fengying to come over at this year's birthday banquet.
So only Mai Li and Zhu Xiuyu were present that night.
Neither of them had ever bought a gift for such a young child, and they discussed for a long time, but there was no result.
Mai Li came out after changing his clothes and said, "Why don't you go directly to the mall and ask the salesperson to introduce us?" β
Zhu Xiuyu lay lazily on the sofa and glanced at her, "Listen to your baby, but we don't have much money now, so we can't buy too expensive ones." β
Mai Li walked over, looked at him condescendingly, and asked, "...... Speaking of which, you haven't even told me what you used to do. β
Zhu Xiuyu propped himself up, sat upright, combed the broken hair in front of his forehead, and said seriously: "Just look at me, I have a good image, good temperament, and I am the best candidate for a public relations manager." β
Mai Li hesitated for a moment and asked, "Hotel?" β
Zhu Xiuyu said; "It's a big company anyway."
Mai Li didn't ask what big company it was, but was a little puzzled, "Then why did you resign?" β
Zhu Xiuyu said distressedly: "Because I am always molested by female guests." β
Oak: "......"
"What about you, what kind of job do you plan to find in the future?" Zhu Xiuyu asked rhetorically.
Mai Li's last appointment with Yiyan was actually to discuss this matter with her, at that time she was quite hesitant and undecided, but now she has figured it out and made up her mind.
"I'm going to Licheng next month." Seeing his surprise, Mai Li immediately added, "Don't think about it, I didn't go there for you." β
Zhu Xiuyu stood up and stretched out his hand to hug her and said, "I don't believe it, you are preparing to marry a chicken." β
Mai Li couldn't help but smile and asked, "Are you a chicken?" β
The two fought for a while before going out.
"Wait a minute, Aunt Wheat's boyfriend is going to call Uncle Hello, you know?" Zhou Yiyan saw that it was almost time to eat, and it was estimated that Mai Quercus and they should come, so he told the baby in advance.
The baby said in a soft voice, "Tiger oil." β
Zhou Yiyan: "...... No, it's uncle. Tell me again, uncle, uncle. β
Baby: "Ahhh β
Zhou Yiyan gave up, well, in fact, her baby is not very good at talking, coming and going is cute and pinching, I don't know how to get through the second pulse of Ren Du before, learned tiger oil, but in addition, it is "goose goose goose" and "ah oh oh" all day long.
I've heard that boys tend to speak late, so don't be too him.
As a result, when Mai Li and Zhu Xiuyu entered the door, the little guy ran over with "puff", staring at the fruit basket in Zhu Xiuyu's hand with shining eyes, and then raised his hand to Zhu Xiuyu's face and shouted excitedly: "Pig!" β
Zhu Xiuyu: "......" Who did I recruit and provoke whom?
Oak: "Poof." β
Zhou Yiyan: "Poof...... That, no, little girl, can't be so rude. β
The baby opened his little arms to hug the fruit basket, but it was not high enough and jumped very hard.
"Pigs! Pig! β
Only then did Zhou Yiyan react, "It's uncle, little girl, tell me, uncle, uncle." β
Then the baby turned around and said softly, "Tiger oil." β
Mai Li's heart trembled by his cuteness in an instant, and he squatted down and picked up the baby, "Oh my God, the baby is so cute." Let Aunt Wheat hug her. β
The butler had been standing beside him with his head down, not squinting, the light of the hallway falling behind him, his face hidden in the shadows, and he couldn't see what his expression was.
Zhu Xiuyu handed the fruit basket to Zhou Yiyan and said with a smile: "Hello, Xiaozhou, we met in a hurry last time across the night, but I will definitely never forget a beauty like you." β
Zhou Yiyan: "...... Thank you. She stiffened and took the basket.
This person is the same as his appearance, a little unreliable, what should I do?
She couldn't help but be a little worried, was it really good for Wheat to choose him.
The baby was curious about the curly hair of the wheat oak, and the little hand gently grabbed it, and then let go, and found that the hair was actually very elastic, so he grabbed it again and let it go again......
Oak: "......"
At the other end of the restaurant, Xiaomei had already delivered the last dish out of the kitchen, Zhong Ying walked up to Ji Feng and whispered to him that the meal was ready.
Ji Feng took a step forward, bowed slightly, and showed a standard welcome smile, "Everyone, please move to the restaurant." β
Oak turned her head to look at him, just in time to make eye contact with him.
For a moment, Mai Li felt that the other party's eyes seemed to flash a trace of amazement.
"Long time no see." She smiled at him.
Ji Feng was stunned for a moment, and also smiled, "It's been a long time." β
Zhu Xiuyu said with a smile: "Let's eat first, it's not too late to catch up after eating." β
Zhou Yiyan thought that there must be a sword and sword shadow between these two men, at least they should kill each other with their eyes or something, but in fact they didn't.
Zhu Xiuyu is very talkative, although the oil tone is smooth, but the proportion is very good, it will not make people annoying, and he likes children very much, he has been teasing the baby to eat more vegetables during the banquet, and also interacting with him, so that Zhou Yiyan, who was originally skeptical of him, gradually changed.
After the meal, Zhu Xiuyu said that he wanted to walk around the yard.
"There are a lot of mosquitoes in the yard at this time." Oak doesn't really want to go.
Ji Feng suddenly said, "I can accompany Mr. Zhu." β
Zhu Xiuyu said happily: "Then let's go." β
After they left, Zhou Yiyan said to Mai Li a little uneasy, "Will they fight?" β
Mai Li put the baby on his lap and hugged him, teasing him, "Anla, I have already talked to Zhu Xiuyu, and he said that he doesn't mind that I once had a crush on Ji Feng." β
Zhou Yiyan hesitated for a moment before saying, "Have you ever thought that Ji Feng may also be ...... to you?"
Mai Li interrupted her guess with a smile, "You think too much, how can it be." β
For a period of time, she chased Ji Feng backwards, and the chase was very obvious, and everyone in the villa saw it, and it was impossible for Ji Feng not to know.
But he just wasn't moved.
There could be two reasons for this.
One is that he really didn't take her seriously, so he pretended not to understand and let her retreat. The second is that he may have been tempted by her sometimes, but he can't be sorry for his fiancΓ©e.
So whether it's based on the first point or the second point, Oak should let go.
Zhou Yiyan was still not at ease, "We really don't have to go with us?" I always feel that Ji Feng's state today is very wrong. β
Especially the moment I saw Zhu Xiuyu.
Because she was closest to him, she felt it very obviously, and she even saw Ji Feng's hand clenched into a fist.
Mai Oak asked her, "If they really start fighting, who are you going to help?" β
Zhou Yiyan thinks there is still a need to ask, "Of course it's to help Ji Feng." β
"Then you can't go because I'm helping my boyfriend." Mai Li analyzed, "So if we go, we won't be able to disagree about who to help, and we will fight." β
Zhou Yiyan: "......"
In the courtyard, Ji Feng and Zhu Xiuyu stood opposite each other, also frowning, their eyes revealing coldness.
Ji Feng was the first to break the silence, "Zhu Shao, do you think that if we haven't met, I won't know you?" β
Zhu Xiuyu was indeed a little surprised.
But when he entered the door, he received the hostile gaze from Ji Feng, and he knew that something was wrong.
Could it be ...... "Lily told you about me?" "Come to think of it, it's the only possibility.
Ji Feng forcibly suppressed his anger and asked calmly, "What is your purpose in approaching wheat?" β
Zhu Xiuyu looked at him calmly, and said slowly: "This is a matter between me and her, and it seems that it is not your turn to care." β
Ji Feng did hear about Zhu Xiuyu in Qin Lili's mouth, and at that time, in order to test him and make him jealous, Qin Lili deliberately told him a lot of things about Zhu Xiuyu's crazy pursuit of her.
and also showed him Zhu Xiuyu's photos, in order to tell him that this man who is crazy about pursuing her has a good appearance and family background, and is a fierce rival.
It's a pity that Ji Feng didn't show impatience or anger, but just said lightly: "I believe in you." β
Qin Lili dropped the cup on the spot and asked him if he really cared about her.
Because Qin Lili almost fell ill later, Ji Feng was deeply impressed, and at the same time kept Zhu Xiuyu in his heart.
"If you're crazy about pursuing Lily just out of a playful mentality, then your feelings for wheat won't be real. One of them is my fiancΓ©e and the other is my friend, and that's why I'm questioning you. β
Zhu Xiuyu sneered: "Lily and I are just friends, the crazy pursuit is just you, can't Lily have one or two friends of the opposite sex?" And what about me, Mai can feel it, she is an adult, has her own judgment, and does not need your so-called friend to point fingers on the side. β
Ji Feng narrowed his eyes, and his usual gentle expression disappeared, replaced by sharpness.
Such a look appeared on his face was a bit rare, and if someone who was familiar with him was present, he would definitely be surprised.
"You don't have to quibble, even if you outsmart me in words, I still don't believe you. You must have bad intentions with Wheat, I just ask you, how did you meet Wheat? β
Zhu Xiuyu clasped his hands to his chest, and did not lose to him in the aura at all, "It's still the same sentence, you don't care." β
"Is it because of ......" Ji Feng suddenly thought of something, and his expression changed drastically, "Is it what Lily meant?" β
Zhu Xiuyu laughed, the coldness in his eyes was enough to freeze people.
"I have no problem with you speculating about your fiancΓ©e like this."
Ji Feng closed his eyes and clenched his fists tightly.
He regretted his recklessness a little. Yes, Lily wouldn't do that, she didn't have that much scheming, she wouldn't use such despicable means.
On top of that, she had no idea of the existence of Oak Oak at all.
He was in front of her, and he didn't mention her in a word.
My own associative power is really too rich.
Maybe all this is really just a coincidence. Zhu Xiuyu couldn't ask Lily, and finally let go, and at this time happened to meet Mai Li.
Oak is a lovely girl, and she is very relaxed, comfortable, and comfortable with her.
It's a matter of course to fall in love with her.
It's just that I've lost the right to like anyone.
