Chapter 44: My Mother Arrives
Although Li Kaile did not make it clear that he gave up the "pursuit" of Rongyue, he did not pester her in the next two days except for the normal work handover, which is also good news.
Rongyue is happy and quiet.
As a result, when it was time to get off work on Friday, Li Kaile suddenly came to ask her to go to the movies together.
"No, I have something." Rong Yue simply refused, waved his hand and went directly to the side of the road to take a taxi and left.
Li Kaile pouted.
This woman is hard to catch.
He was about to go back to the office to get his bag, but when he reached the door, he heard two colleagues inside chatting quietly before leaving.
"You said that there is a Li Kaile now, can Rongyue stay after the probationary period?"
"It should be okay in terms of ability, but it's obvious that Director Han can like Li Kaile."
"I thought Shao Zihao was gone, and Rongyue would be stable, but I didn't expect it."
β¦β¦
Although they haven't been with Rong Yue for a long time, they do recognize her work efficiency.
The two of them came out one after the other with bags on their backs, and they didn't notice Li Kaile who was hiding to the side.
This guy's expression changed.
Dare to love Rongyue is just a probationary employee like himself?
Li Kaile frowned.
On the first day of coming, Director Han only introduced the respective positions of his colleagues in the department, and he didn't ask in detail later. And seeing that Rong Yue is so handy in doing projects, I thought he was a mature designer, but I didn't expect it......
Phew, wasting his time in vain.
Li Kaile rolled his eyes in disdain.
His gaze turned to Rong Yue's workstation, then twisted away, and his gaze fell on Director Han's workstation again.
In my heart, I already have a plan.
Rong Yue, who had just arrived at home, shouted as soon as he entered the door: "Xi Zhengxuan, have you eaten?" β
In fact, it is just casually said that his legs and feet are inconvenient, and he doesn't come back every day, so he can only sit stupidly and starve.
Sure enough, Xi Zhengxuan's voice came from the bedroom-
"I didn't eat, I'm waiting for you."
Rong Yue chuckled, and before he could change his shoes, he saw him limping with his hands on the wall.
"Didn't you say you couldn't go to the ground?" She reproached.
Xi Zhengxuan couldn't walk anymore after only two steps, standing in place against the wall, his facial features were twisted a little in pain.
Rong Yue hurriedly went over to hug him, angry and funny.
"That ......" Xi Zhengxuan didn't know why, his face was a little red.
Seeing that he wanted to speak and stopped, Rong Yue wondered: "What's wrong?" β
I wanted to take him back to the bedroom, but he didn't move, and I wanted to take him to the living room to sit, but he didn't move.
Rong Yue frowned.
Then Xi Zhengxuan said stubbornly: "I want to go to the bathroom......"
"Flutter!" Rong Yue didn't hold back.
It's okay if she doesn't smile, but when she laughs, Xi Zhengxuan's face turns even redder.
The sudden flush reached Rong Yue's laughing hole more and more, and she couldn't help laughing, almost falling into Xi Zhengxuan's arms.
"I'll do it myself......"
Xi Zhengxuan saw that Rong Yue had been smiling, and seemed to want to lose his temper, so he was angry and wanted to shake off her hand and go straight to the bathroom.
"Ahem!" Rong Yue hurriedly tightened his expression, "I'll help you." β
She was afraid that Xi Zhengxuan would be stubborn again, so she directly grabbed his arm.
Although Rong Yue's strength is not small, it is still difficult to set up Xi Zhengxuan, who is more than 1.8 meters tall.
So when she finally got him into the bathroom, she was so tired that she leaned against the outside door and gasped for air.
As a result, Xi Zhengxuan inside also said sullenly: "You go farther." β
Just waiting outside through a door, how embarrassing.
Xi Zhengxuan's pants were not embarrassed to unzip.
Rong Yue choked and resigned herself to the living room.
Okay, for his sake, bear with it.
When the guy called her inside after going to the toilet, Rong Yue thought about it in pieces, and pulled Xi Zhengxuan out again.
Rong Yue was tired for a week, and she didn't want to cook anymore, so she ordered a takeout directly, and then lay on the sofa and watched TV.
Xi Zhengxuan sat next to her, glancing at her intentionally or unintentionally with a face that had not yet faded.
Just as Rong Yue was drowsy, her phone rang.
She thought it was takeaway, rubbed her eyes, and put on her slippers and went to the door.
As a result, it was Uncle Qin's voice at the other end of the conversation-
"Miss, no! Just now my wife said that I miss you, and my lord asked people to drive directly to you! β
Rong Yue yawned and choked in his throat, and suddenly he was completely awake with fright!
"What!" Rong Yue subconsciously shouted.
Xi Zhengxuan was also frightened by her roar, and asked, "What's wrong?" β
Rong Yue didn't have time to reply to him, and his mind went blank in an instant.
Although her family's main house is not close to here, even if she catches up with the traffic jam, it will only take more than an hour at most.
How can I convince my mother to go back or ...... in an hour? Convince Xi Zhengxuan to go out?
Rong Yue grabbed his mobile phone and glanced back at Xi Zhengxuan with a complicated expression.
He looked dazed, and his ankles were swollen like a big steamed bun.
It would be too unkind to let Xi Zhengxuan go out.
Rong Yue excused himself to go downstairs for a walk, and rushed out in a hurry.
She hung up the phone and immediately dialed her mother.
Li Peilan quickly picked it up.
"Mom, are you coming here now?"
"Yueyue, how do you know? What did your dad tell you? Li Peilan heard the sound of a car honking when she heard it, "Really, my mother still wants to surprise you, no, let people stew chicken soup, keep it warm, and bring it over to drink." β
"No, Mom, I'mβ"
Rong Yue was about to lie and say that he was working overtime, but Li Peilan said, "Don't talk about it yet, I'll call you when my mother arrives." β
Fortunately, Rong Yue's overtime sentence was not spoken, otherwise Li Peilan, who had already learned from the general manager that she got off work on time, probably noticed that something was wrong with her daughter.
In the mobile phone, the short sound of the toot gave Rong Yue a headache.
What to do? What to do!
Mom is rushing over, and there's an adult male in her house!
Dressed at home, it will definitely be unclear when the time comes!
And as soon as her mother came, Rong Yue estimated that her identity would be exposed.
Sweat was oozing from her forehead.
No, the two must not be allowed to meet!
Rong Yue bit her lip and was so anxious.
Just when the delivery man arrived, she took the takeout and staggered into the elevator.
What can you do......
Rong Yue stared at the numbers on the elevator display screen and slowly climbed.
Then, her eyes began to brighten slowly!
Pregnant!
She remembers chasing the anime detective Conan in college, and in one episode she used an elevator to create a "new" space.
If you can......
Rong Yue's mind was opened, and as soon as he got out of the elevator, he stood in the aisle and called Uncle Qin.
After talking about his inspiration and requirements, Uncle Qin on the other end of the screen was taken aback by Rong Yue's idea.
"Miss, wait a minute, I'll go ask Xiao Wang first."
Rong Yue responded, went home first and hurriedly handed the takeaway to Xi Zhengxuan, and then trotted out again under the puzzled gaze of the other party.
"Hey! Honor youβ"
"You eat, I'll be back later."
Rong Yue didn't look back.
Weird.
Xi Zhengxuan shook his head helplessly.
"How is Uncle Qin?" Rong Yue kept wandering in front of the elevator.
"Yes, Miss, Xiao Wang said that the house downstairs is indeed the same as the one you live in, and no one has moved in for the time being."
Uncle Qin was still in the main mansion at this time, and there was no way to come immediately, so he had already let Wang Tao go directly.
Rong Yue breathed a sigh of relief, and after thanking Uncle Qin, he hurriedly took the elevator downstairs.
Wang Tao didn't even dare to delay for a second after receiving Uncle Qin's call, he ran into the community sweating profusely, and it seemed that Rong Yue was waiting downstairs from a distance, and quickly speeded up.
He didn't ask what happened, but said quickly: "Miss, although most of the facilities in the room on the 19th floor are available, there are really no toothpaste and toothbrushes you said, but I have already sent someone to buy them." β
"Okay, good work." Rong Yue nodded, and followed Wang Tao all the way to the 19th floor.
That's right, upstairs directly below the one I currently live in.
After Wang Tao opened the door, Rong Yue immediately flashed to each room.
It's OK.
Although it seems too neat and clean, at least it can be hidden.
Rong Yue looked at the time, it was already half an hour.
She sent a message asking where her mother was now, and when she got a reply that it would take at least forty minutes, Rongyue finally calmed down a little bit.
Ten minutes later, Wang Tao sent several bags of daily necessities.
I was so meticulous that I even bought yogurt in the refrigerator.
Rong Yue hurriedly and Wang Tao began to clean up!
In that episode of Conan, she was particularly impressed.
The murderer arranged two identical rooms on the upper and lower floors to create parallel spaces and hide people's eyes.
Rong Yue really didn't expect that one day, he would draw inspiration from anime.
She couldn't cry or laugh, and silently apologized to her mother in her heart.
Not daring to breathe, the two made the master bedroom, bathroom and living room look like they have been inhabited for a long time.
The side bedroom was not needed, the kitchen could be an excuse to never cook, everything was perfect.
Rong Yue was so tired that she couldn't move while sitting on the sofa, and just wanted to slow down, her phone rang again.
The note shows that it is a mother.
It seems to have arrived.
Rong Yue was stunned and hurriedly connected.
"Yueyue, Mom got into the elevator by herself, what floor are you on?"
Li Peilan's face, it is estimated that the doorman knows it, so he didn't let her brush the access control, right?
Rong Yue blurted out: "19th floor!" Then she immediately waved at Wang Tao, who understood it and quickly walked away with the things she didn't need.
Although Wang Tao didn't know what was going on, he always felt that he shouldn't be discovered, and after thinking about it, he didn't even dare to take the elevator and climbed the stairs down.
Rong Yue walked around the room again, and after making sure that there was nothing wrong, he cut his hair, pretended to be happy, and ran to the elevator to wait.
During this period, Xi Zhengxuan estimated that he couldn't wait for her to go back for a long time, so he made two calls to come in.
Rong Yue didn't answer and cut it off.
"Dingβ"
The elevator stops and the door opens.
Li Peilan, who was dressed exquisitely and had a new perm for the banquet, came out with a smile on her face.
"Mom," Rong Yue gave her a hug and said angrily, "Why didn't you come over without saying hello in advance." β
"I don't think my daughter can just say that she is coming?" Li Peilan carried the thermos bag, "I stewed the chicken soup and went into the house to drink." β
Rong Yue had to obediently follow.
Probably the common problem of every mother is that when she arrives at her child's home, she spontaneously starts to go around and around.
The same is true for Li Peilan.
Rong Yue was nervous, so she followed her mother wherever she went.
"So clean?" Li Peilan muttered.
Rong Yue smirked: "I usually work overtime all the time, but when I come back, I lie in bed and sleep, it must be clean." β
She is actually on time when she gets off work than anyone else, and her face is not red and her heart does not beat when she lies.
The mother and daughter chatted with each other.
Rong Yue was stunned, his hands were shaking a little when he drank the soup, but the mobile phone on the table rang again.
The buzzing vibration also made noise to Li Peilan, who was about to go to the refrigerator to cook a meal for her daughter.
Rong Yue didn't have time to pick up, so her mother leaned over and looked at the screen.
"Xi Zhengxuan?" Li Peilan read the sentence, thinking that it was a boy's name, and asked curiously, "Why don't you take it?" β
Rong Yue put down the spoon hard.
"Pick up, pick up ...... now"
She pressed answer.
