Chapter 53: See Father-in-law and Mother-in-law
Two days before Christmas, Xi Kanglei suddenly called, Xinan was sitting on the sofa watching TV, and Cheng Yi had not come back at this time.
Looking at the flickering screen, Xinan chuckled in her heart, why did her father suddenly call her? Could it be that something is wrong with the company?
Because apart from this, Xinan really can't imagine what else Xi Kanglei can do when he calls.
Xinan hurriedly answered, "Hey? Father. ”
"Nannan, how are you doing with Ah Yi recently? Are you busy with work? "Every time Xi Kanglei calls, the first thing is to inquire about her and Cheng Yi
His voice was calm, not like something big had happened.
Xinan breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, but at the same time she was a little disappointed in her heart, in her impression, every time Xi Kanglei called, she didn't seem to really care about her, her tone couldn't help but be a little sour, "We're fine, not very busy." ”
"That's good." Xi Kanglei put his mind at ease, and then said: "Bring Ah Yi to the house for a meal tomorrow, your mother and I haven't seen you for a long time." ”
"Okay, I'll ask him."
After hanging up the phone, Xinan looked at the phone screen and was distracted, will Cheng Yi go to Xi's house with her?
At half past ten in the evening, the door of the villa was slowly opened.
When he saw Xinan who was still sitting on the sofa, Cheng Yi was slightly stunned, "Why haven't you slept yet?" ”
Xinan glanced up at him, and then said slowly, "I'm waiting for you." ”
Cheng Yi was stunned in place for two seconds, then took off his coat and walked into the living room to pour himself a glass of water.
His cuffs were slightly bent to reveal a small half of his wrist, and he could clearly see the bulging green tendons on the back of his hand, as well as the pulses that beat from time to time.
Cheng Yi drank a glass of water and said slowly: "Say, what's the matter?" ”
He knew that Xinan would not wait for him for no reason.
"My dad called today and said let's go back to Xi's house tomorrow for a meal." Xinan asked tentatively, "Are you free?" ”
"Tomorrow?"
"Hmm."
Cheng Yi frowned slightly, he has an important meeting tomorrow, if it is not something important, it must not be pushed off at this time, but
Looking at Xinan's eyes. Cheng Yi still nodded and said, "I'll be free tomorrow night." ”
"Okay, I'll send a message to my dad in a moment, and we'll go over tomorrow night."
"Hmm."
Speaking of which, Xinan hadn't seen Xi Kanglei and Zhou Rong for several months, and it was about to be New Year's Day, so Xinan was going to buy something to give them.
In the past few years, because of the company's affairs, the family's expenses have been repeatedly saved, and in the most difficult time, Zhou Rong even sold all the jewelry that Xi Kanglei gave her before.
Even the bag she is carrying now was given to her by Xi Kanglei on her birthday several years ago.
Among the rich wives in this circle, which one of them is not wearing expensive jewelry and carrying brand-name bags, but Zhou Rong sold them
Because of this, Zhou Rong has been ridiculed many times by these rich ladies.
After that, Xinan never saw Zhou Rong go to the party of these rich ladies again.
Although Zhou Rong said a lot of sad things to Xinan, she was her mother after all, and Xinan couldn't be ruthless.
As long as she is able, she will still be filial to them.
So, after work the next day, Xinan went to the Hermes counter and picked out the latest bag and a black tie.
Because Cheng Yi got off work late today, he asked Xinan to go first.
Walking to the door of Xi's villa, when Xi Kanglei and Zhou Rong saw that only Xinan came back, the smile on their faces suddenly froze, and the two frowned at the same time: "Why are you yourself?" What about Ayi? ”
Xinan said: "Cheng Yi's company still has some things that he needs to deal with, come over in a while." ”
Hearing this, Xi Kanglei and Zhou Rong's faces softened a lot.
Seeing them like this, Xinan said that it was not lost, it was fake, but he still handed over the gift box, "Mom, Dad. It's New Year's Day coming soon, and this is a gift for you. ”
"Nannan, you are." Zhou Rong hesitated for a moment.
"If the child has this filial piety, just accept it." Xi Kanglei said.
"Okay." In the end, Zhou Rong still reached out and took it.
When I opened it, it was a Hermes bag in her recent photo, but because the price was too expensive, I was reluctant to buy it, "Nannan, you have a heart." ”
Seeing the smile on Zhou Rong's face, Xinan's depressed mood slowly improved.
"Dad, won't you open it and take a look?" Xinan saw that Xi Kanglei was slow to move, so he asked.
Xi Kanglei smiled and said, "It's not too late for me to look at it later, don't be at the door, it's so cold outside, let's go in first." ”
After Xi Kanglei reminded him like this, Xinan felt that it seemed to be a little cold, "Mmmm, okay." ”
She rubbed her hands, sighed, and then walked in, because the heating was turned on inside, so as soon as she entered, her body warmed up a lot.
Xinan took off his coat and wore a white shirt and black trousers, and his hair was tied up casually, simple and clean.
—
After the meeting, Cheng Yi called Ye Rui to the office.
Ye Rui stood at the desk for no reason, "Mr. Yi, are you looking for me?" ”
"Hmm." Cheng Yi put down the Chinese piece in his hand and said slowly: "You go and bring the emerald jade necklace and the ancient calligraphy and painting that you brought back from the auction a few days ago." ”
Why did Mr. Yi suddenly ask him to bring this? When he brought it back, he didn't even look at it, could it be that there was something wrong?
Ye Rui was a little puzzled, but he still nodded and walked out.
In less than ten minutes, Ye Rui reappeared in the office, holding exactly what Cheng Yi wanted.
Seeing that Ye Rui didn't leave after putting down his things, Cheng Yi raised his eyebrows and glanced at him, "Anything else?" ”
Ye Ruidao; "Mr. Yi, it's nothing, I just want to ask you, why did you suddenly remember to take this, is there something wrong?"
"No problem."
"And who are?"
"Give it away." Cheng Yi said.
Giving away? Ye Rui was taken aback, his eyes suddenly widened, and he didn't even give the jade necklace, but even the ancient calligraphy and painting.
That's the best calligraphy in China! There is already no market for it.
And the combined value of these two things is already tens of millions.
How important this man is!
It wasn't until Ye Rui drove into the Xijia villa area that Ye Rui finally knew who Cheng Yi was going to give this gift to, it turned out to be for his father-in-law and mother-in-law!
Speaking of which, this is the first time Cheng Yi and Xinan have officially met Xi Kanglei and Zhou Rong since they got married, no wonder they want to give such a valuable gift.
Today's more!
