Saying goodbye to Xi Zi'an, Xi Xun seemed to be in a very good mood, so that Ji Fan couldn't bear to mention some sad things, and he was even reluctant to break the tranquility at this time.

"Ji Fan, can you be serious, be careful that my fish is injured, and then it won't be your life that can be saved in a few meals!" Xi Xun felt that Ji Fan was really a pistachio, at least she felt that compared to being in front of someone she loved, Ji Fan was a very good friend and would not let her feel pressured.

"I've been careful enough, don't worry, if you really like it so much, I'll have someone send you a few more another day." Ji Fan didn't expect that he would have such a patient day, and it didn't seem that it was a good thing to spend time like this.

"You let people send it, no matter how good it is, it's not these few, that's right, people like you shouldn't know the mood of fish farmers." Xi Xun glanced at Ji Fan with disgust and said to himself.

"What about your brother, how does he feel about you raising fish?" Ji Fan's eyes narrowed a little, obviously remembering the conversation with Xi Zi'an just now, and blurted out at this moment.

But when he said it, he realized his gaffe, but at that moment, he suddenly saw a touch of sadness and apprehension in Xi Xun's eyes, which really surprised him.

"What is this for, you ask? My brother was very nice to me, he was very good to me since I was a child, you know we grew up together, my parents were not around at that time, I was dependent on him for everything, so he was really good to me. When Xi Xun talked about Xi Zi'an, his eyes seemed to be shining, but he was a little sad in it, and he said three good words in a row.

If Ji Fan was still in a state of uncertainty before, at this time, he felt the unusualness between the Xi family brothers and sisters very obviously and concretely, and he became more and more worried in his heart, knowing that this kind of risk was impossible, but he was still worried, after all, he liked the warmth of the surroundings so much that he was reluctant to give up easily.

"What about you, what do you think of your brother?" Ji Fan decided to tentatively ask Xi Xun again what he thought of his spoiled brother.

"What about you, have you heard of my brother's reputation outside?" Xi Xun may feel that his gaffe is a little obvious, but this time he learned not to reply, and asked the other party a few words.

"Like you said, it's good, there are almost no scandals, and it's a very powerful character." Ji Fan's evaluation is pertinent, and there are no personal prejudices in it.

"Now that you've heard of it, why are you asking me? I can tell you exactly what my brother is in my mind. Xi Xun's tone also revealed a sense of pride, but there was nothing else unusual, Ji Fan smiled and said nothing.

I washed the fish tank again, and then rearranged the fish and put it back in, and fed it fish food by the way. Xi Xun took Ji Fan to the living room and tasted the pastries specially prepared by the maid.

In the empty living room, Xi Xun was eating the desserts in his bowl alone, without saying a word, without the agility in the courtyard before, but silently lifeless, which made Ji Fan look very uncomfortable.

Xu felt Ji Fan's gaze, and Xi Xun looked up at the other party: "Why don't you eat it?" ”

"I'm not actually hungry, but this snack does look pretty good." Ji Fan took a bite of the sweet soup in front of Xi Xun, and at first glance, it was the taste that the other party liked on weekdays.

Don't forget that he has had dinner with Xi Xun more than once, and I think that the beginning of their conversation and real acquaintance was also from Xi Xun's refusal of his offer to dinner.

"Oh." Xi Xun didn't speak again, and put his eyes on his bowl, he had his own thoughts, and he didn't care so much about Ji Fan.

Thinking that Xi Xun felt that he didn't eat it, he didn't give her face, Ji Fan immediately buried his head, ate two more bites, and kept quiet at the dinner table for a while.

"Ji Fan, you were in the courtyard in the afternoon, are the words you said to my brother sincere?" Xi Xun's sudden question made Ji Fan almost choke, choked a little, and only recovered after slowing down slightly.

"Did you hear something?" Ji Fan could subconsciously feel that Xi Xun must have heard something in the courtyard, and she might have been there a long time ago, but she didn't say it.

"Well, I heard a little, not much." Xi Xun also seemed to feel that her words were a little abrupt in an instant, and at that moment she said with a faint smile as if she was nothing: "Okay, I was just joking, let's eat." ”

Seeing that Xi Xun no longer mentioned that incident, Ji Fan's heart became more and more uncomfortable, and some words wanted to be spit out, but it seemed that regardless of the occasion, he had to give up a little unwillingly.

Since You Jing talked to herself and talked a lot about what happened to Zhong Ming when she was a child, Chen Xinyao's mind became heavier and heavier, and many things were obviously a little far from what she thought.

But all this doesn't mean anything, Zhong Ming's heart still lives in a woman who is real, and the fact that their marriage is fake is also true, irrefutable, so that she can't even find a reason to convince herself.

It's just that she didn't expect that it would be less than two days after You Jing finished chatting with her, and Old Man Chu would come to the door in person, which made Chen Xinyao feel even more heavy.

"Grandpa, don't say a word when you come, this place hasn't been cleaned yet." Chen Xinyao didn't expect that she would see Old Man Chu in the apartment one day, and the small space of the room at this time made Chen Xinyao feel a little embarrassed, and she didn't even know where to put her hands and feet.

"Well, it's indeed a nice house, it feels like home, no wonder you don't go back to live with Tianyao?" Old Man Chu's words fell into Chen Xinyao's ears, and she really couldn't tell whether she was praising or criticizing, but her intuition made her feel that the old man came over in person today, and it was definitely not that simple.

So Chen Xinyao was busy explaining, even if her grandfather knew that her husband and wife relationship with Zhong Ming was not as good as it seemed, she still had to maintain the superficial work, which she promised Zhong Ming.

"Grandpa, this place is relatively close to my company, and I have recently had a project conflict with Tianyao, so it's better for us to avoid suspicion for the time being." Chen Xinyao took out the things at work as a shield.

"I won't participate in the affairs of you young people, I came here today purely to see you, this house is the last inheritance left to you by your father, and it is indeed a good thing to come and live once in a while." Although Old Man Chu did not count Chen Xinyao explicitly, the meaning of the other party's words made Chen Xinyao feel embarrassed.

"What Grandpa said is, I'll pour you a glass of water." Chen Xinyao got up from the sofa, went to the kitchen to clean it a little, and brought a glass of boiling water to Old Man Chu, and the apprehension in her heart has not yet dissipated.

"Okay, you don't have to be busy, I'll just say a few words and leave." Old Man Chu stared at Chen Xinyao's scalp a little numb, she rarely saw her grandfather so weird.

"Grandpa has something, just tell me." Chen Xinyao always seemed to be calm on her face, but she was actually very nervous in her heart.

"I heard Uncle Xu say, you haven't been home for a long time? Even if you are very busy at work, you can't do this, I told you very clearly at the beginning, with my friendship with your grandfather, even if you don't speak, I will help you with that, if you are really dissatisfied with this marriage, you have the right to choose not to get married. ”

"But you took the initiative to agree to this marriage, why is this now?" Probably Old Man Chu had never said such ugly words in front of her, and Chen Xinyao's heart was shocked.

"Grandpa, in fact, I ......" Chen Xinyao really wanted to explain something at the moment, but when she thought that her grandfather's health was not good, I was afraid that she would not be able to withstand the blow of their divorce by agreement, so she swallowed the words back immediately: "Grandpa, in fact, we really don't have anything, it's just because we are busy with work." ”

"Is it really just because of work and nothing else?" Old Man Chu is not so easy to tease, and naturally he also feels the twist in the other party's words, but some words are not suitable to be said too clearly, he wants to force them, but can this be effective?
