Pan Ning really does what he says.
After Xiang Huan left the hospital and rested at home for two days, his mother arranged to have afternoon tea with Chenghong.
When he was discharged from the hospital, there was no phone number or WeChat message from Chengye, and he didn't show up in person, as if he had forgotten Xiang Huan's existence.
Xiang Huan was not disappointed, but he quickly adjusted his mentality and took the initiative to send a WeChat message to Chengye on the way home to tell him that he was home.
But I never said thank you.
Chengye didn't reply to the message, nor did he come directly to the door without saying hello like before, and disappeared from Xiang Huan's life like evaporation.
Knowing that he was going to have afternoon tea with Cheng Hong, Xiang Huan was very interested in it. He thought about everything from what to wear to what to say in advance.
The meeting place was the VIP cafe of Lincheng five-star hotel. At 2:30 in the afternoon, there were still many customers.
Xiang Huan arrived an hour early, waiting for his mother and Cheng Hong to come together.
While waiting, the store called and said that the sofa set Narino ordered was out of stock, and he was not sure how to contact him.
Xiang Huan thought for a moment and said he would contact him. Then he sent a WeChat message to Cheng Ye to explain the situation and asked him if he wanted to return it or change it to another style.
When it’s convenient, give yourself a reply.
Less than half a minute after the WeChat message was sent, Narino sent a request for a video call.
Xiang Huan answered, and Cheng Ye looked at her surroundings and asked who she was with.
"I made an appointment with my mother and your aunt for afternoon tea at the VIP cafe of Hotel Z." Xiang Huan told the truth.
Narino agreed, then frowned and said a little unhappy, why do you love drinking coffee so much.
Xiang Huan laughed, but then he thought about why Chengye didn't accept coffee, and the corners of his mouth drooped.
Cheng Ye noticed the change in her expression, lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, asked Xiang Huan to send him the location, and then hung up the phone.
Is he coming over too?
Xiang Huan was not sure. As soon as he sent him the hotel location, Cheng Hong came over.
Seeing that she was alone, Xiang Huan asked where her mother was.
Cheng Hong sat down opposite Xiang Huan and replied that Pan Ning met an acquaintance in the elevator and wanted to chat for a few words before coming over.
Xiang Huan wondered in his heart what kind of acquaintance could make his mother leave behind the important thing Cheng Hong.
"He is a master who could control everything in Lincheng ten years ago, but not anymore. He lived with your mother for several years, so you should know him." Cheng Hong quickly answered Xiang Huan's doubts.
When Xiang Huan heard this, the face of an old man immediately appeared in front of his eyes.
When Pan Ning first established himself in Lincheng, he was with a powerful man. Xiang Huan also had dinner with them, but they never saw him again after he went to college elsewhere.
I just heard Pan Ning say that the man was dying and would never interact with him again.
At that time, I used this incident to hammer Xiang Huan, telling her not to secretly think about the man in prison. They were destined to be different people.
Xiang Huan took a deep breath.
Who would have thought that the man in prison would now be the one that their mother and daughter miss the most.
Cheng Hong didn't wait for Pan Ning to come. He ordered drinks and food first. After ordering, he made up his mind and ordered a set for Xiang Huan without asking what others wanted.
Xiang Huan didn't mention that Cheng Ye might come, after all, she wasn't sure.
After waiting for ten minutes, Pan Ning appeared in a hurry.
Xiang Huan glanced behind his mother, but didn't see the old man.
"Did you get rid of your old flame?" Cheng Hong spoke directly and loudly, so the guests nearby could hear her.
Pan Ning smiled and sat down next to Cheng Hong. After taking a quick look at her daughter, she said something that her old friend didn't know, just that they had business contacts in the past.
Cheng Hong snorted, laughed contemptuously, but didn't ask any more questions.
Coffee and cake snacks were served, and the three of them drank and chatted. Xiang Huan rarely spoke and mainly listened with a smile.
She was wondering in her mind whether Narino would come and how long it would take.
Being so distracted, she didn't hear what her mother and Cheng Hong had just talked about. When Cheng Hong called her, she was so embarrassed that she didn't know how to answer the conversation.
Pan Ning glared at her angrily, then helped her daughter out, saying that Cheng Hong had just asked her if she and Cheng Ye were going to Dawan with her on the weekend.
Xiang Huan was completely unaware and rolled his eyes trying to figure out how to answer.
"I want to go to Dawan to talk about something. Xiaoye said that he has never been there and said that he would bring his girlfriend to accompany me." Cheng Hong raised his eyebrows, "Isn't he talking about you?"
That’s what happened.
Xiang Huan felt that it couldn't be her because Chengye didn't mention it to her at all.
Although there are still four days until the weekend, documents are required to go to Dawan. If Narino wanted to take her, he should have contacted her to confirm.
I felt empty and uncomfortable again.
Following Xiang Huan's silence, the atmosphere became more or less awkward.
Pan Ning was about to speak when his eyes inadvertently glanced at the entrance of the coffee shop, and his eyes lit up.
Xiang Huan noticed his mother's expression and subconsciously turned his head to look.
After seeing it clearly, she was slightly stunned.
Of the three people present, only Cheng Hong continued to drink coffee without any surprise. After drinking, he shouted "Xiao Ye".
Cheng Ye laughed in response, walked over in a few steps, and sat directly next to Xiang Huan.
"Your aunt called you here, didn't she say you don't drink coffee?" Pan Ning greeted Narino happily.
Cheng Hong immediately clarified that she didn't call her nephew over, why did she call him when she knew he didn't like drinking coffee.
Cheng Ye explained with a smile that he came over until they got together because he had something to do with Xiang Huan.
He also said that he wanted to try coffee, but he had to adapt slowly, otherwise he would not be able to keep up with the trend.
"Whatever you like to drink, I want the same drink as you." After he finished speaking, he turned and approached Xiang Huan.
"Mr. Cheng ordered cappuccino for me today. I usually drink iced latte." Xiang Huan explained to Cheng Ye.
"Iced latte then."
Xiang Huan turned his head and stared at Chengye. He had obviously lost weight after not seeing him for a few days. He didn't know what was going on.
Pan Ning also noticed it, and then asked directly about the identity of the elder, and told Cheng Hong that he looked more handsome after losing weight.
Cheng Hong was very pleased with others praising her nephew. She looked at Cheng Ye with a satisfied smile and asked him what he wanted from Xiang Huan.
She sounded like a mother.
Xiang Huan and her daughter looked at each other and waited for Chengye's answer in tacit understanding.
When the iced latte was served, Cheng Ye frowned and took a sip. After swallowing it, he answered his aunt that he was just confirming with Xiang Huan whether there was any problem with the documents for going to Dawan.
After saying that, he turned to look at Xiang Huan and repeated, asking her if the ID was okay for the weekend trip.
"no problem."
Xiang Huan blurted out that the certificate she used to go to Dawan was indeed not expired and could be used normally.
Narino hummed and continued to challenge his iced latte.
At the end of the afternoon tea, Chengye and Xiang Huan walked to the parking lot together.
After sending Cheng Hong and Pan Ning away first, Xiang Huan was about to ask Cheng Ye what happened when he went to Dawan, but he already took the initiative to bring it up.
"I was originally going to be with Yu Na. She's temporarily busy. It's okay if you don't want to." Cheng Ye followed Xiang Huan to where she parked her car.
Xiang Huan found it quite boring, but she didn't show it at all and just replied that she could do it.
Chengye paused, glanced at Xiang Huan who was standing motionless by the car, and just hummed.
Even if it is an agreement.
The two drove away from the hotel separately.
In the evening, Xiang Huan sent Cheng Ye another WeChat message and asked her what her identity was when they went to Dawan together this time.
She had no other intention, just that she was afraid that she would not be able to figure out the situation and cause trouble to him, so it was best to ask.
After waiting for almost an hour, Narino replied.
Just four words - temporary girlfriend.
The weekend is here in a blink of an eye.
Xiang Huan drove to the airport by himself. When he saw Chengye and Chenghong in the terminal, he found that there was someone else beside them besides their subordinates who were traveling with them.
Yu Na, who said she couldn't go, stood next to Cheng Ye.
