Chapter 378: Fiancé
Hearing that the Zhuge family didn't track me down, I breathed a sigh of relief, "It's okay to hang up. And, congratulations."
"Thank you!"
The phone hung up, and we took the train from the county seat to Zhao Dailei's house in Huadu.
On the way, Sun Mingjin looked at the bustling metropolis and couldn't suppress his excitement, "Big brother, we can finally get to the city, and we don't have to live like a savage anymore!"
During this time, Murphy was also very tired, and sat by the window and fell asleep.
I also took a nap and fell asleep with my body tilted......
Only Sun Mingjin was so excited that he was jumping up and down like a monkey.
Modern means of transportation is fast, we transferred to the high-speed rail halfway, but six hours, we arrived in Huadu.
This trip is very secretive, so I didn't inform Zhao Dailei in advance.
The flowers are near the sea, and the sea breeze blows, carrying the fragrance of early spring flowers and green grass.
Sun Mingjin took a deep breath, "It's so fragrant, when you get to the big city, even the air smells of herbs."
Murphy yawned and said with some disdain, "You don't want to be dirty, can't you?" It was a lawn mower that had just passed by, and the lawn smelled of grass oil."
I wiped the saliva from my neck with a tissue and looked at Murphy with disdain.
When the bus arrived at the stop sign, we came all the way to the villa area and arrived in front of Zhao Dailei's house.
The door was open, there were many flower stands inside, the floor was covered with a goose-down red carpet, and two aunts were cleaning inside.
The three of us, covered in wind and sand, are not unkempt, but they are almost like beggars.
One of the sweeping aunts saw me and was stunned for a long time before she tentatively said, "Are you ...... Mr. Zhuge ?"
"It's me."
I didn't expect that after leaving for so long, the workers of Zhao Dailei's family would still recognize me.
I said, "Excuse me."
"Okay, you wait here, I'll call Miss Zhao!"
After a while, Zhao Dailei hurriedly went downstairs.
She was wearing a red dress and light makeup, which was less cold and more feminine than before.
Murphy took a step back with some embarrassment and stood behind me.
I then remembered that Zhao Dailei had chased Murphy before, but she rejected her.
What I didn't expect was that this time Zhao Dailei just said hello superficially, "Hello Miss Mo, hello Mr. Sun."
Murphy: "Hello."
Sun Mingjin scratched his head embarrassedly, his eyes dodged, "That...... You're okay too."
Zhao Dailei took my arm affectionately, "Mr. Zhuge , you came all the way and didn't say hello to me, so I can send a car to pick you up."
"Something has happened recently, and it's inconvenient for our identities to be revealed."
"I see."
Zhao Dailei welcomed us to the living room and poured tea herself, "Mengfu's business has been doing well recently, I heard that it is thanks to you."
"Speaking of which, you can be regarded as a great benefactor of our family."
Zhao Dailei talked to us warmly, and 90% of her attention was almost on me.
Her attitude is good, but I always find it weird.
In the past, Zhao Dailei frowned all day long, busy like a spinning top, and cherished words like gold with a plain face, almost dedicating her entire life to work.
Now she is much more lively and cheerful.
Could it be......
On the wall, there is a photo of Zhao Dailei and a handsome man, with roses in a vase.
Sure enough, Zhao Dailei fell in love.
I had no interest in probing into Zhao Dailei's private life, so I just handed her my hand-drawn sheepskin map.
"This is our next destination, please."
Zhao Dailei smiled and said, "Mr. Zhuge don't worry, I promise to find you a *** as soon as possible!"
Maps were left over thousands of years ago, and it's not easy to find.
I reckon,
Zhao Dailei will be able to do it in about a month.
In the last month, we have been taking a break in her villa area.
The human spirit is like a bow, if you don't know how to relax in a certain way, then the bowstring will definitely break.
In the villa, we no longer have to pitch a tent and take turns keeping vigil.
I was lying on the soft bed, drinking Zhao Dailei's iced Coke, eating freshly made fries from the kitchen, and lazily looking out the window at the beach, as if I had been reborn.
Even if I don't need to cultivate, I can feel that my spiritual strength is slowly increasing.
I opened the storage bag, took out a treasured hibiscus flower, held it up to the window, and looked at the distant shore of the water and sky.
I don't know how Fuso is living in the fairy world.
I have collected all four seven-star life-sustaining lamps, and I am still three lamps away, so that I can open the legendary tomb of Wuhou and find the gate to heaven.
At that time, I will be able to reunite with my grandfather again and figure out why my parents were killed that year!
I didn't sleep well on the train, and I made up for it in the afternoon.
At around seven o'clock in the evening, Zhao Dailei prepared a reception banquet for us.
On the dining table, there are charcoal-grilled steaks, roasted whole lamb, roasted pork knuckle, Cantonese dim sum, hot pot, etc., and the richness makes people can't help but be jaw-dropping.
Sun Mingjin held the chopsticks, stunned and didn't know which one to eat first.
"My mother, there are so many delicious dishes here, I haven't seen so many dishes during the Chinese New Year!"
Zhao Dailei said enthusiastically: "You don't have to be polite, just move the chopsticks."
It's true that we haven't eaten anything good for a long time, and when I saw such food, I was not polite, grabbed an elbow and began to nibble.
Seeing that I had done it, Sun Mingjin was embarrassed to tear off the chicken leg and stuff it into his mouth.
Only Murphy is still Sven, and he unhurriedly uses chopsticks to put vegetables on his plate.
The door opened, and a young man in a white suit, with long hair and light makeup, entered the door holding roses.
I couldn't help but frown when I saw the living people enter the door.
You know, our identities are kept absolutely secret and cannot be discovered by outsiders.
The man entered the door, hugged Zhao Dailei, and sat down beside her.
Zhao Dailei stood up and said a little embarrassedly, "Let me introduce to you, he is my boyfriend Kaidi, a bridge engineer who has returned from studying abroad."
"We...... I'm going to get married in a month."
Getting married in a month? Zhao Dailei's marriage came really fast!
Since he is a fiancé, he can be regarded as half of his own person.
I nodded, "Hello."
Cady didn't pay attention to me, but stared at Murphy for a second, then nodded perfunctorily, "Hello."
After taking his seat, Cady's tone was a little questioning, "Honey, what are you friends for?"
"They are ......"
Zhao Dailei hesitated for a moment, and then said, "They are the backbone of my previous company, and then they started their own business abroad, so they don't come back often."
Fortunately, Zhao Dailei did not reveal our secrets to outsiders.
Cady didn't say anything, but there was obviously a little disdain in the eyes that looked at us.
It's no wonder that people look down on us, after all, our picture of eating is like fleeing and coming back.
