"What that handsome guy said just now... is actually true!"

After recovering from the surprise, Zhao Jiajia's face turned shocked the next moment.

Originally, she just ran back to look for her wallet with a glimmer of hope.

But who would have thought that what Chen Xu said was absolutely correct!

Zhao Jiajia's little heart was beating wildly.

Is it possible that there are still people in this world who can predict the future and understand the past?

On the other side, Chen Xu walked into the village in the city, passed through several alleys, and then returned to his home.

"Mom, I'll go back... huh?"

He took the key and opened the door of the newly renovated house. Before Chen Xu could shout, the aroma of food suddenly rushed into his nose.

"Xiao Xu, are you back?"

"You're back just in time. Go clean up quickly and come back for dinner later!"

Zhang Lirong came out of the kitchen carrying a plate of steaming braised prawns with a happy smile on her face.

"Mom made a big meal today. Let's sit down and eat together later!"

"Hey, that's good."

His eyes swept over the food on the dining table, probably because he gave his mother two hundred thousand yesterday, and today she cooked a table full of dishes.

Most of these dishes are his favorite.

Chen Xu briefly washed himself, and as soon as he walked out of the room, he immediately saw his mother bringing another cup of stew.

"Xiao Xu, your Uncle Zhao's daughter is coming later, so you have to treat her well."

"Uncle Zhao? You mean dad's friend from the previous company?"

Thinking of Uncle Zhao, Chen Xu frowned.

Before his father died, he and Uncle Zhao had always been friends, and Uncle Zhao often came to his house to play.

But after his father's accident, Uncle Zhao rarely came. Then Uncle Zhao moved to another place to work, and Chen Xu rarely heard from him.

As for his daughter, Chen Xu only met her once when she was studying.

"Jiajia has found a job in Donghai City, but she doesn't have a place to live yet, so she will come to our house for a while."

Zhang Lirong said while clearing the table.

At this time, there was a knock on the door. Zhang Lirong quickly put down what she was doing and opened the door.

The door opened, and a tall figure appeared in front of the two people.

Zhao Jiajia looked at Zhang Lirong who opened the door, and a smile immediately appeared on her face.

"Aunt Zhang, I'm here to disturb you!"

"Oh, Jiajia, you are finally here!"

Zhao Jiajia and Zhang Lirong hugged each other excitedly and greeted each other cheerfully.

"Jiajia, you are already so beautiful, only a few years have passed!"

"In Auntie's impression, you are still the short little girl you were before!"

Zhang Lirong stroked the back of Zhao Jiajia's head happily, her eyes full of love.

Before Zhao Jiajia's family moved away, Zhang Lirong and Zhao Jiajia had always been very happy and sympathized with each other as a real mother and daughter.

Now seeing Zhao Jiajia again, Zhang Lirong was extremely happy.

"Oh, Auntie, how many years have passed, and I haven't grown up yet, so I will be a little girl all my life!"

Zhao Jiajia joked.

"Haha, it's better to grow up!"

Zhang Lirong helped Zhao Jiajia take off her backpack. Suddenly she realized something and quickly turned around to introduce it to Zhao Jiajia.

"Jiajia, you haven't seen your Brother Xu for a long time. I'll take you to meet him. This is your Brother Xu!"

Zhang Lirong took Zhao Jiajia's hand and brought her to Chen Xu.

But the next moment, Zhao Jiajia raised her head, and her expression immediately became excited and surprised.

"It's you?"

What appeared in front of him was Chen Xu, whom Zhao Jiajia had been looking for just now.

Originally, after she got her wallet back just now, she wanted to thank Chen Xu.

But who knew that Chen Xu was not waiting for her there.

Zhao Jiajia thought they would never meet again, but now the two of them actually met at Zhang Lirong's house.

"Brother Xu, it turns out you were the one who saved me just now!"

Zhao Jiajia ran forward excitedly and hugged Chen Xu's arm familiarly.

When they were young, they often played together, although their relationship has faded after not seeing each other for many years.

But because Chen Xu had just pointed him to find his wallet, Zhao Jiajia immediately returned to his previous kindness.

"Jiajia, it turns out that girl is you..."

Being held by Zhao Jiajia, Chen Xu felt that his face suddenly felt a little hot.

Zhao Jiajia is no longer the Zhao Jiajia of before, nor is he the Chen Xu of before.

Looking across Zhao Jiajia's face, Chen Xu felt more of a different kind of emotion than kindness.

"Oh, Jiajia, have you already met?"

"It's a shame that I'm still thinking about how to introduce it to you. It's good that you have already met!"

Seeing Zhao Jiajia and Chen Xu being intimate, Zhang Lirong smiled happily.

Zhao Jiajia also smiled happily and said, "Aunt Rong, you don't know."

"I almost lost my wallet when I came here just now, but Brother Xu helped me find it!"

"Huh? Xiaoxu still has this ability?"

A trace of surprise flashed in her eyes, Zhang Lirong couldn't believe it.

"Uh...this is just a coincidence..."

Chen Xu scratched his head helplessly, blushing and not knowing what to do.

If he had known this earlier, he should have accompanied Zhao Jiajia to look for her just now.

"Haha, Jiajia is here just in time. Let's eat first."

"If anything happens, let's eat first and then talk about it!"

Zhang Lirong pulled Chen Xu and Zhao Jiajia to the dining table. Chen Xu finally breathed a sigh of relief when the girl Jiajia next to him didn't hold his arms.

A few people sat down and had a cozy meal.

During the process, Zhao Jiajia talked about her participation with her father.

After moving that year, Zhao Jiajia went to the city next to Donghai City to study.

It wasn't until she graduated from college and was looking for a job that she came back to Donghai City to stay with Chen Xu's family.

Knowing that Zhao Jiajia had not found a job yet, Zhang Lirong patted her hand and smiled.

"Don't worry, Jiajia, you can come to our house at any time until you find a job."

"As long as you don't dislike my little house!"

Zhao Jiajia held her hand with a smile, wrinkled her nose and said, "I don't dislike Aunt Lirong, I can stay as long as you want!"

Unlike Chen Xu, Zhao Jiajia lost her mother when she was young. Zhang Lirong used to help take care of her.

For Zhang Lirong, Zhao Jiajia already felt like a reborn parent.

"Xiao Xu, you go and clean up the attic room later. Mom will move the luggage there later."

"Jiajia, you can stay in my room from now on." Zhang Lirong smiled.

"How can this be done, Aunt Rong? I'd rather live in the attic. I'm sorry to bother you in the first place." Zhao Jiajia stood up in a hurry and said.

Zhang Lirong smiled and waved her hands indifferently and said, "It's terrible! That attic is so small, and it sometimes leaks. How can it be suitable for you to live in? It's better for me to live there!"

"This is not possible, let me live here!"

"I live!"

Seeing the two people arguing, Chen Xu suddenly laughed.

He stretched out his hand and grabbed them directly.
