Returning to the familiar environment, Ni Huairou saw that the food covered by the dishes was placed on the table of the dining table, and three pairs of chopsticks were placed in three places safely, as if they were waiting for the master to return and enjoy it together.

Has Uncle Shen been waiting for her to come back for dinner? Ni Huairou's heart swelled with warmth, this feeling of someone waiting to return was really touching, looking at Uncle Shen's kind face, as reliable as a father.

"Please be seated."

Uncle Shen looked at Pan Weixuan and greeted him, he was not so polite to Ni Huairou, it seemed that Pan Weixuan was a foreign guest, and Ni Huairou was his own family.

"Thank you, you're so kind."

Pan Weixuan's smile was humble and gentle, Uncle Shen looked at Pan Weixuan and just kept his smile unchanged, and some kind of strange electricity seemed to burst out between the two of them.

Ni Huairou looked at the two of them and sat down on the sofa next to Uncle Shen, I don't know why she always felt that Uncle Shen didn't seem to welcome Pan Weixuan.

"You said you were Xiaorou's cousin, right? Did you come all the way to find someone? ”

Uncle Shen poured out three cups of tea as he spoke, one was returned to Pan Weixuan, one was held up and sipped in his mouth, and the other cup naturally belonged to Ni Huairou.

Pan Weixuan bowed his head and held the teacup with his palm, with the respectful attitude of the younger generations to the seniors, and he also drank the tea before answering slowly and gently.

"Yes, I'm Rourou's cousin, and my name is Pan Weixuan. I didn't know what happened to her before, but I bothered you to take in and take care of Rourou, and I came to find Rourou this time. ”

Pan Weixuan handed the business card to Uncle Shen and explained his origin by the way.

"Well, it's not a hassle. It's just that Xiaorou has been missing for so long, why is she only looking for it now? Xiao Rou had an accident and came to the courtyard, during which it was about two or three months, and Xiao Rou couldn't find any clues when she searched around. The answer given by the police was that there was no such person. ”

Uncle Shen's voice was calm and unhurried, and his eyes moved away from the business card and fell on Pan Weixuan, with scrutiny and exploration in his eyes.

"Huh. Old man Shen, right? I heard Rourou talk about you, and she was very good and took care of her. As for what you said, I'm afraid I can't tell you the specific reason in detail, but I really didn't know that something happened to Rourou before. So I felt guilty for delaying the time and making Rourou suffer a lot. But now that she's been found, I'm hoping to be able to pick her up and take her home, and I hope you'll allow it. ”

"Shall I allow it?" Uncle Shen looked at Pan Weixuan with some surprise, and put the business card back on the table with a serious expression.

"I don't think I can sway Xiaorou's thoughts, she's a very assertive girl, and I admire her. As for whether she wants to go back with you, there is no conflict with me whether I allow it or not. ”

Pan Weixuan was a little dumbfounded, his face changed, and then he continued: "Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to target you, it's just that Rourou has been out for so long, and I thank you for taking her in." Out of courtesy, I would like your permission. Because Rourou has a home after all, I want to tell you that I can take Rourou home to live in. Rourou's grandmother is also looking forward to her coming home......"

"I don't feel like it's my home."

Pan Weixuan's words were coldly interrupted by Ni Huairou, the sick old man Liu Manwen in the Liu Mansion was not her relative, and she preferred to live in the courtyard compared to Liu Manwen.

For what Pan Weixuan said again and again in front of others, Ni Huairou was dissatisfied and already had some anger, and Pan Weixuan, as his cousin, seemed to want to decide whether she went or stayed.

Uncle Shen couldn't help but smile when he heard Ni Huairou's words, no matter how he looked at Pan Weixuan, he felt that it was an eyesore, just now he almost forced Ni Huairou to go on and leave, but he was interrupted by this old man, and now he forced Ni Huairou to refuse directly.

Pan Weixuan looked at Ni Huairou with a bad face with some embarrassment, and saw the resolute resistance and resistance from Ni Huairou's face, and felt in his heart that the possibility of maybe wanting to take Ni Huairou home had been reduced to zero in this situation.

A little disappointed in the bottom of his heart, and when he wanted to organize the mood to invite again, the door was pushed open from the outside, and a tall figure rushed in, it was the man who had given him a punch just now in the alley, Shen Lang.

When Ni Huairou saw Shen Lang come back, her face stiffened, her lips pursed, all of this looked at Pan Weixuan's eyes, and the panic just now returned to composure.

"This is? Rourou, this must be Shen Lang, right? The midday punch was hard enough, and now my nose still hurts a little. ”

Pan Weixuan seemed to be joking, but he told Uncle Shen about it, making Uncle Shen's face look a little ugly at his son who rushed in and lost his previous calm.

"What kind of system is it to be flustered!" Uncle Shen let out a low snort and stopped Shen Lang's footsteps rushing towards Ni Huairou.

"Dad." was pulled back to his senses by his father's low voice, and originally just wanted to explain what happened to Ni Huairou first.

Seeing Ni Huairou's expressionless face, but he didn't look at him, Shen Lang couldn't tell what Ni Huairou was thinking in his heart.

"Well, Rourou is back, so don't run around looking for someone. Okay, I see that everyone is back, let's eat first. If Mr. Pan doesn't mind leaving his humble beginnings, please come and have dinner before leaving. ”

Uncle Shen's words said that Pan Weixuan had no way to speak, but he was unwilling to be arranged by Uncle Shen to stay, but fortunately, he could still have a dinner as a buffer.

"You're polite, just call me Xiao Pan. This courtyard house is antique, Mr. Shen's residence can be regarded as a long-term residence for elegant people, how can it be simple and how dare he dislike it? Since Mr. Shen is very loving, please forgive me for being respectful and obeying my fate. ”

Ni Huairou was a little uncomfortable listening to the polite words of biting the words, but Uncle Shen nodded calmly and sat down in the restaurant, and Shen Lang looked at Pan Weixuan's face was not good.

Picked a place next to Uncle Shen and sat down, Shen Lang and Pan Weixuan squeezed towards the seat next to Ni Huairou at the same time, and the two big men almost bumped into each other, a little embarrassed, but no one let anyone.

Pan Weixuan is an outsider after all, so he can only choose to make concessions in such a situation, and Shen Lang is kind of aggressive character, so he will definitely not let Pan Weixuan steal his limelight.

Ni Huairou didn't care about the fight between the two men, but when Shen Lang sat down, Ni Huairou's eyebrows unconsciously twisted, but everyone had already sat down, and she could only temporarily resist the urge to leave the table.

Helping to lift the dishes covered on the table, a few exquisite home-cooked meals wafted out of the fragrance, the food was still hot and white mist came out, and a pair of chopsticks were added to Pan Weixuan, and the chopsticks were moved under the signal of Uncle Shen.

The table at the entrance of the meal was silent, maintaining a quiet dining environment, but Shen Lang's eyes looked at Ni Huairou's cheeks from time to time, observing the changes in her expression.

Ni Huairou knew that Shen Lang was looking at herself, her face had maintained an expressionless look since Shen Lang entered the door, and she didn't want to talk to Shen Lang.

Pan Weixuan silently observed the expressions of a pair of men and women opposite, the entrance of the meal is ordinary home-cooked food and is not tasted, after all, Pan Weixuan's purpose is not to eat, when Pan Weixuan's eyes were observing on the other side, Uncle Shen also glanced at Pan Weixuan and the other two people.

Although he didn't know what was going on, Ni Huairou's face and his son's attitude let Uncle Shen know that something must have happened to cause this situation.

Just as a few people were eating in silence, a terrible cry came from Aunt Wu's house next door, which was obviously from Wu Xiaoqi's mouth.

Everyone was stunned and couldn't help but look towards the door, Shen Lang's brows furrowed, and Uncle Shen's expression became solemn, looking at his frowning son.

"Lang'er, what's going on with Xiaoqi? You went to find Xiaorou with her, did you quarrel again on the way? ”

Uncle Shen thought of asking Shen Lang to apologize before, but the two children went out to look for Ni Huairou, why did they start crying again after they came back, could it be that Shen Lang didn't apologize and the two quarreled again?

"No, I don't know." Shen Lang replied simply, and after speaking, he looked at Ni Huairou next to him.

The chopsticks were stuffed into her mouth, and Ni Huairou ate seriously and attentively, and didn't seem to notice Shen Lang's gaze.

However, Ni Huairou's heart was mixed, thinking of the scene she saw on the road when she came back, and she couldn't tell what was going on with this sour feeling in her heart.

Shen Lang and Wu Xiaoqi grew up as childhood sweethearts, and the relationship between the two must be very deep, so hugging may be common for them?

Ni Huairou tried to comfort herself not to think too much, but normal adult men and women have no blood relationship and still hug, no matter how you think about it, it makes people feel that it is a lot of relationship, especially when she saw Wu Xiaoqi's kiss at the corner of Shen Lang's mouth, it was like an ordinary couple.

There was a sour feeling in my heart, and my heart was full of sourness, and the food I ate choked in my throat and was difficult to swallow, and the unpleasant taste was as tasteless as chewing wax.

"Well, when I just came back, I saw that Mr. Shen and the little girl were still in good shape, was there a quarrel between lovers? Hehe, aren't they still hugging each other? Rourou and I were afraid of disturbing you, so we deliberately didn't get out of the car to say hello. ”

Pan Weixuan looked at Shen Lang with a smile, an unknown light flashed in his eyes, and he was also satisfied to see Ni Huairou's face change.

Uncle Shen looked at Shen Lang seriously, the dispute that occurred in the courtyard before, Uncle Shen was afraid that Shen Lang would not be able to handle the relationship with Wu Xiaoqi well, and now it seems that he is afraid that not only did he not handle it well, but also dealt with it and collapsed.

Young people's love and love Uncle Shen really don't have the heart to care, but Wu Xiaoqi is also a child who grew up by himself after all, and Uncle Shen, who has no daughter, loves Wu Xiaoqi as a daughter.

Heard Pan Weixuan say that the two children actually hugged each other? Uncle Shen was actually surprised in his heart, and at the same time, he didn't agree in his heart, for fear that his son would hurt Wu Xiaoqi by not being able to carry his feelings.

"Lang'er, what the hell is going on?"

Uncle Shen's question made Shen Lang not know how to say it in front of others, thinking of what happened on the street before, Wu Xiaoqi's initiative and confession, and the kiss that did not dodge, Shen Lang was a little entangled in how to say it.

He felt that his refusal was quite obvious, but Wu Xiaoqi seemed unwilling to believe it and even more unwilling to give up, thinking of Wu Xiaoqi's last words before leaving, Shen Lang felt that he might really have no choice but to take Wu Xiaoqi.

"Me and Xiaoqi ...... It's a misunderstanding, I'll explain it clearly, I really don't have anything to do with her. ”

Although Shen Lang was answering Uncle Shen's question, his eyes kept looking at Ni Huairou, as if the meaning of the explanation was for Ni Huairou.

No one was eating with chopsticks at the dinner table, all of them were interrupted by Wu Xiaoqi's crying, although the sound insulation of the room was not very good, but after all, it was also separated by some distance, and now Wu Xiaoqi's crying can be heard clearly, it can be seen that Wu Xiaoqi is still crying with a lot of strength.

Wu Xiaoqi's crying was also mixed with a few words of Aunt Wu's consolation, although she couldn't hear it clearly, but Aunt Wu's few words of persuasion could still be faintly heard, nothing more than persuading Wu Xiaoqi not to cry or something.

Ni Huairou furrowed her brows a little irritably, thinking of Wu Xiaoqi's attitude and performance towards her before, Pan Weixuan's proposal made her start to be a little moved.

Perhaps, leaving the courtyard is also a solution, after all, she has never wanted to involve the people in the courtyard.

To go or not to go, to stay or not to stay? Ni Huairou weighed it in her heart.
