At dinner, after everyone sat down, Chen Xu could feel the awkward atmosphere in the air, Fang Huiwen didn't even look at the old lady, and she didn't know what happened between the mother and daughter.

The relationship between Fang Huiwen and Fang Zhiyuan doesn't seem to be very good, and the two hardly chat.

Looks like she should have been pulled back by her husband. However, since she has returned to see her mother, it means that her attitude has softened, and now there is an opportunity to reach a reconciliation.

At the dinner table, it wasn't until the brother-in-law mentioned it that Chen Xu knew that today was the old lady's birthday, and the strange thing was that Luo Xiyun hadn't mentioned it to him before.

Fang Zhiyuan suddenly asked, "Xiao Xuan is about to graduate from college, right?" ”

He asked about Fang Huiwen's son, whose name is Zhang Yixuan.

Zhang Yixuan replied, "Uncle, I have already obtained my graduation certificate. ”

"Are you going to work abroad or return home?"

Zhang Yixuan said as a matter of course, "Of course I returned to China, the discrimination there is too serious, and no matter how good you are, it will be difficult to get ahead." And there are more opportunities at home. ”

Fang Huiwen couldn't help but say, "What nonsense, your father's development over there is not good." As long as you are good enough, you can excel anywhere. ”

Zhang Yixuan pursed his lips and said, "It's your business that you like to stay abroad, and I'm going back to China anyway." ”

"You ......" Fang Huiwen was very angry.

Zhang Rui next to her grabbed her hand, and she endured it without having a seizure.

At this time, Luo Xiyun took the opportunity to say, "Auntie, sister-in-law, why don't you go back to China too." ”

Fang Huiwen was silent, but Zhang Rui said, "We have to think about this matter." ”

After that, no one brought up the topic again.

Chen Xu noticed that during the whole process, the old lady didn't say a word, and she couldn't see what kind of attitude she had.

After eating, Luo Xiyun accompanied the old lady back to the house first, and Xiao Fanghao followed a tutor to the piano room to practice the piano. Fang Zhiyuan didn't know where he went.

In the living room, only Chen Xu and Fang Huiwen's family were left, and everyone chatted naturally.

During the chat, Chen Xu learned that Zhang Rui was in the field of microelectronics and a partner of the company. And Fang Huiwen herself is a lawyer, and she also co-founded a law firm with others, and she can be regarded as a successful person in the United States. No wonder I can't let go of the career over there.

Next to him, Zhang Yixuan kept silent, playing with his mobile phone with his head down. He has been ignoring Chen Xu, and seems to be haunted by what happened at the airport last time.

Fang Huiwen asked, "Chen Xu, what do you do?" ”

After Chen Xu came to Fang's house, she was the first person to ask about it, and before, neither Mrs. Fang nor Fang Zhiyuan had asked him about his work.

"I used to be in the same company as Xiyun, but then I started my own business, opened a noodle restaurant and an IT company, and later, opened several laboratories."

Laboratory?

Zhang Rui was slightly stunned, but he thought that he opened a noodle restaurant, maybe it was related to food. This also proves that his company should be quite big.

Fang Huiwen said, "I'm really young and promising." ”

…………

At night, Chen Xu spent the night alone in the guest room, and for the first time, out of respect, he did not touch Luo Xiyun's room, and slept in the guest room alone for one night.

Early the next morning, Chen Xu got up for a morning run and ran into Luo Xiyun halfway.

I don't know when she also began to pay attention to sports. It's just that he doesn't have amazing endurance like Chen Xu, and he runs at most two or three times a week.

At this time, the sky is just bright, the street lights on the side of the road are still shining orange light, the greening in the community is very good, and there are green plants on both sides of the road.

There was silence all around, and Chen Xu heard Luo Xiyun next to him breathing a little quickly.

He controlled his pace and jogged side by side with her on such a road, some cold wind blowing on his face, making his lips dry a little.

After running for more than ten minutes, Luo Xiyun couldn't hold it anymore, slowed down, and panted as he walked. Chen Xu was beside her.

After a while, Chen Xu saw that her breath calmed down a little and asked, "What's the matter with my aunt and grandmother?" "He never got a chance to ask that question yesterday.

Luo Xiyun wiped his sweat with a towel on his shoulder, and said, "After graduating, my aunt has been working in the Fang Group, and within a few years, she became a department manager. Then, my uncle also joined the company, and soon, the position surpassed her. ”

"In terms of ability, my uncle is indeed inferior to my aunt. Therefore, she always felt that her grandmother was partial, and later after her uncle became CEO, she was angry and ran to settle abroad. ”

Chen Xu listened to her story and thought, what a temper tantrum. From this point of view, there are some similarities with Luo Xiyun's personality, and I don't know if it's genetic.

He felt that things were definitely not as simple as Xiyun said. Judging from yesterday's contact, Fang Huiwen does not look like a difficult person to get along with. She will fall out with her biological mother and younger brother, most likely because there are other hidden secrets.

However, he didn't ask much questions.

He said something else, "By the way, why didn't you tell me that yesterday was my grandmother's birthday?" I should have prepared a better gift for her. ”

"My grandmother is more superstitious, and she goes to fortune telling every year, saying that she can't celebrate her birthday this year, so it's best to pretend that she doesn't know."

"And that kind of statement?"

"This is nothing, a few years ago, Fang's Group's performance began to decline. The fortune teller said that my grandfather's feng shui was not good, and he suggested moving the grave, and I tossed for a long time for this matter. Luo Xiyun sighed.

Chen Xu was a little surprised, "I really can't see that your grandmother is still superstitious." ”

"She wasn't so serious before, but after my grandfather died, she became more and more superstitious."

While the two were talking, they had already returned to the Fang family's villa.

Luo Xiyun asked, "I'll go back first, are you still running?" ”

"I'll do one more lap." Chen Xu hadn't been running for a long time, and he hadn't even sweated.

Next, he ran around the road of the community alone, until the sun came out, he sweated, and then returned to the villa and saw Zhang Yixuan and Luo Xiyun playing basketball.

At some point, an assembled simple basketball hoop was erected next to it.

Luo Xiyun dribbled, Zhang Yixuan defended, she made a feint and changed her heading to take it inside, but she was recognized and couldn't break in, so she shot on the spot.

Zhang Yixuan was half a head taller than her, and as soon as he stretched out his hand, he covered the ball. Then burst out laughing.

The ball rolled all the way to Chen Xu's feet, and he picked it up.

"Chen Xu, educate him." Luo Xiyun shouted.

Zhang Yixuan glanced at Chen Xu with a provocative look.

Chen Xu slapped the ball up and said, "Then, let's play." ”

"Come on."
