183 gifts
The next morning, when Chen Xu woke up, he saw that the sky outside the window was already bright, and he took out his mobile phone to see that it was almost six o'clock.
It's an hour later than usual, and he doesn't need the phone alarm clock anymore, and he wakes up every day at that point. A biological clock is formed.
He rolled over and sat up, rubbing his face with his hands. Last night, he chatted with Bai Jinxuan on video until more than three o'clock in the middle of the night, and he drank a lot of beer before he overslept.
To be honest, he couldn't remember exactly what he had talked about with Bai Jinxuan, it was probably all in a dream.
He only remembered that she later said that she wanted to come to him, but he persuaded her.
For a while, it is not the time for them to meet.
With her current popularity, once she returns to China, there will definitely be countless reporters who follow her openly and secretly, wanting to get a big news. Meeting her during this time is too risky and can easily be exposed.
Luo Xiyun is even haunted by his ex-girlfriend who has broken up, can he tolerate him having such a relationship with Bai Jinxuan?
What's more, he has a huge secret and doesn't want to be a celebrity at all. When the time comes, everything he does will be put under a magnifying glass, and there will be nothing to speak of. It was never the life he wanted.
Only after this gust of limelight has passed is the time for them to meet.
You can't meet in person, but you can keep in touch.
Her QQ number is too sensitive, in order to avoid being noticed by those who care. The two added WeChat to each other, so that it was easier to contact.
Thinking of this, he stood up, went to the bathroom to wash up, changed into sportswear, and went out for a run.
Although he got up late, he still didn't want to be lazy, many things, as long as they were interrupted once, there would be a second time, and then countless times. He didn't want to give himself an excuse.
…………
In the next few days, Chen Xu has been busy with the decoration of the new store.
Soon, on Wednesday, at six o'clock in the evening, a red BMW stopped in front of the noodle shop.
Chen Xu walked out with a duffel bag, and when he saw the car, he couldn't help but cover his forehead.
Yesterday, he euphemistically said that going back to his home and driving that Porsche was a bit too ostentatious. So, Luo Xiyun said that she could borrow Yumeng's car, her car was relatively ordinary.
Sure enough, in her eyes, a BMW of five or six hundred thousand is already ordinary?
He suddenly felt the pressure he had to face with her.
However, he didn't say anything, just walked over and said, "I'll drive it." ”
In any case, this situation, sooner or later, he will have to face it one day. The disparity between the two family backgrounds is too huge, whether it is on his side or hers, there will always be all kinds of invisible pressure and resistance.
Since he chose to be with her, there was no other way than to deal with these pressures head-on and find ways to resolve those resistances.
He knew that now in the company, there are many people secretly saying that he is eating soft rice.
So what? If he cares too much, the first person he will hurt is Luo Xiyun.
If Luo Xiyun has to be careful and take care of his self-esteem all the time when the two of them get along, then sooner or later, this relationship will turn sour.
He will try to erase the gap between the two. Until then, though, he'll have to be more assertive.
Luo Xiyun asked a little hesitantly, "Is this car okay?" Otherwise, I'll borrow Secretary Guo's car. ”
Chen Xu smiled, "No, this car is very good." My mom would be happy to know that I had such a talented girlfriend. ”
Luo Xiyun couldn't help but be a little shy, no longer entangled in the car, got off the driver's seat, and sat on the co-pilot's side.
After Chen Xu got into the car, he saw a big bag in the back seat and asked her, "What are these?" ”
Luo Xiyun said, "A gift for your family." ”
"You don't need so much." Chen Xu saw that there were at least dozens of copies here, and said in surprise.
Luo Xiyun counted with his fingers, "Your parents, your grandmother." There are fifteen people in your uncle's family. There are two people in your third uncle's family and eleven people in your uncle's family. Your aunt's ......"
"Wait." The more Chen Xu listened, the more surprised he became, "You counted my entire family into it?" ”
"yes, ninety-three in total. There's still one in the trunk. ”
Chen Xu was dumbfounded when she heard this, no wonder she had been inquiring about the situation of his relatives in the family for the past two days, it turned out that she was preparing gifts. To be honest, he didn't count it himself, and the relatives on both sides of his parents combined, there were more than 90 people. It's kind of scary.
The main reason is that his parents have many brothers and sisters, and in his generation, the number is even more, plus marriage and childbirth, the number is huge.
"Chen Xu, you didn't wait for me." At this time, the back door was opened, Chen Ziqi got into the car with his things, and first shouted sweetly, "Hello sister-in-law." ”
Then, when she saw so many gift bags in the back, she was surprised and asked, "Why do you bring so many things?" ”
Chen Xu said, "Xiyun bought a gift for everyone. ”
When Chen Ziqi heard the word gift, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "Then do I have it?" ”
"Absolutely." Luo Xiyun likes this sweet-mouthed, well-behaved and cute cousin very much. He took out a gift from his handbag and handed it over.
Chen Ziqi happily took it and said, "Thank you, sister-in-law." ”
"Take it apart and see if you like it."
"My sister-in-law gave it to me, I like it all."
Chen Ziqi said, while opening the box and seeing the contents inside, he suddenly screamed, "Sister-in-law, you are really good." As he spoke, he hugged Luo Xiyun excitedly from behind.
Chen Xu also saw that it was a fruit laptop, looked at Luo Xiyun helplessly, and said, "How can you buy such a valuable thing?" ”
Luo Xiyun patted Chen Ziqi's head and said, "The main thing is that Ziqi likes it." ”
"I like it, I like it so much." Chen Ziqi finally let go of her, opened the outer box, and then held it in her arms babyishly.
Chen Xu looked at her happy appearance and was a little funny. Although the third uncle loves her, he has always been thrifty. She muttered for a long time that she wanted to buy a fruit laptop, but the third uncle refused to buy it for her, saying that she had a mobile phone, a tablet, and an old notebook that he didn't use. Why spend that unjust money.
This time, she was sent to a key high school, and she was only asked to choose one, either a mobile phone or a laptop. In the end, she chose her phone.
In fact, her own pocket money is enough to buy, but she inherited the tradition of the old Chen family, and after hesitating for a long time, she was still reluctant to take out so much money.
Now, when someone finally sent her, she would be so happy.
"Then we're going." Chen Xu didn't say anything more, after all, this was Luo Xiyun's heart. I started the car and drove in the direction of my hometown.
Chen Xu concentrated on driving, Luo Xiyun turned around and said, "Ziqi, what kind of person is your second aunt?" ”
Chen Ziqi touched the notebook in his hand, and his face smiled like a flower, "Sister-in-law, don't worry, my second aunt is fine." The people are also gentle, and the dishes they cook are delicious. It's just that sometimes there is a lot of talk. Overall, she's a very nice person to work with. She's going to love you. ”
Luo Xiyun heard her say this, and relaxed a little, "Then, what about your second uncle?" ”
"He just doesn't like to talk. But people are very nice, and they don't care about this or that. Chen Ziqi said, comforting her, "Don't worry, everything has me." My second uncle and second aunt like me, Chen Xu has to go to the back row, and when the time comes, I will definitely help you get them. ”
Luo Xiyun asked a little curiously, "Why do you call the second aunt, shouldn't it be the second aunt?" ”
"It's more kind to call your aunt for more children, or to call your aunt. In our place, the hometown dialect is called Ermu. She was better to me than my own mother. ”
