elder sister!
Following a cry that was filled with joy but could faintly be heard as crying, Jiaojiao let go of Lou Xiaoya's hand and ran towards Min Rou.
Min Rou went out this time for exactly a week.
When she was studying in the county town, she would go home once a week. At that time, her parents were both there, so Jiaojiao didn't feel much.
It's different now.
My sister is Jiaojiao's only relative by blood.
Although Lou Xiaoya has taken good care of her this week, she is still worried that she will be abandoned by her sister.
Cui Xiangdong was a little disgusted when he saw Jiaojiao sobbing as she threw herself into Min Rou's arms.
Can't you see that a big man like uncle is standing here?
Thanks to me for treating you like a daughter!
Feed the unfamiliar little white-eyed wolf——
Just as Cui Xiangdong was eating, Jiaojiao finally thought about who was her master, quickly broke out of her sister's arms, and opened her hands to Cui Xiangdong.
Only then did Cui Xiangdong turn from anger to joy and quickly bent down to hold her in his arms.
"Uncle, Jiaojiao misses you so much."
Jiaojiao leaned close to Cui Xiangdong's ear and began to whisper: "Aunt Xiaoya, I miss you too."
Um?
Cui Xiangdong was stunned for a moment.
It's normal for Jiaojiao to miss her uncle.
Aunt Xiaoya misses her uncle, what does that mean? ?
"I didn't lie to you."
Jiaojiao began to report again: "Last night in the middle of the night, I had a nightmare (my sister was not around and I didn't feel safe). When I woke up, I saw Aunt Xiaoya sitting there, holding a photo frame, crying secretly. While crying, he said, Xiangdong, don’t leave me.”
Can a child’s words be trusted?
Cui Xiangdong didn't want to find this answer.
He just looked at the slim woman in a floral dress and black leather sandals. After walking four or five meters in front of him, she stopped, crossed her arms, and looked him up and down.
There is no concealment of the disdain in his eyes!
Cui Xiangdong felt very uncomfortable after looking at her like this.
Although he could tell that Lou Xiaoya was feigning disdain just to show him, "If you don't let me help you, then we are enemies."
"Sister Lou, Xiaoya."
Min Rou, who was about to call Lou Xiaoya "Vice Town Lou", changed her words to a more intimate title: "Thank you for helping me take care of Jiaojiao these days."
Lou Xiaoya's eyebrows trembled.
Min Rou calls her Uncle Cui Xiangdong, but she calls her Sister Xiaoya.
Counting from this title, doesn't Lou Xiaoya also become Cui Xiangdong's eldest niece?
But if Min Rou, who is now tall and graceful, calls Lou Xiaoya her aunt, she will feel uncomfortable again!
Men always like to act mature.
Women always like to pretend to be young.
Min Rou said, and quickly took out a shoe box from the snakeskin bag she carried with her.
Inside, there are new leather sandals that Min Rou specially helped Lou Xiaoya buy from a shopping mall in Yangcheng.
It was a small gesture of kindness to her to help take care of Jiaojiao.
"Why are you being polite? Jiaojiao is very well-behaved."
Lou Xiaoya did not reject Min Rou's intention. She liked it very much. She took the pair of shoes and said to Cui Xiangdong: "Cui Zhen, go to my house for dinner with Min Rou tonight. Even if I thank you for taking me Dad is out to relax."
Not going——
Just when Cui Xiangdong was about to refuse, Lou Xiaoya immediately said: "Of course, you can refuse."
Cui Xiangdong said without thinking, "Then go."
"Let's go, Jiaojiao."
Lou Xiaoya raised her hand and took Jiaojiao from Cui Xiangdong's arms. When she turned around and left, there was a hint of pride on her lips.
Even if he doesn't want her, so what?
She can still find his weak spots anytime and anywhere!
And at the most appropriate time, a light word can stimulate his instinct and change his mind.
"Cui Xiangdong, who went to the south to sell fish, is back!"
Before Cui Xiangdong reached the family compound, the news spread quickly in the compound.
"He looks dusty, his shirt collar is all black, and he has an unkempt beard."
"The little nanny who went to sell fish with him was still wearing the same cheap shirt, trousers, and plastic sandals."
"He was also carrying two large snakeskin bags. He looked like someone fleeing from famine."
"This shows that they have suffered enough during these days in the south."
"Haha, going to the south to sell those gangsters? He is really whimsical."
"Why did I hear those stevedores say that Cui Xiangdong made a lot of money there? It was said that those gangsters could sell it for several yuan per catty there!"
"Do you believe it?"
"Do not believe--"
Such discussions were carried further by the wind.
Others can say whatever they like, Cui Xiangdong will not pay attention.
This is also the reason why he did not deliberately ask the stevedores to help keep the secret strictly confidential.
The frivolous things those stevedores said were not as believable as Cui Xiangdong's dejected appearance when he returned!
Lou Xiaoya knew that Cui Xiangdong was coming back this evening because Lao Lou told her after returning home (Lao Lou and Chao Chao both went to the fishing ground and will load the car early tomorrow morning and start their journey south again).
But Lao Lou followed Cui Xiangdong's instructions and could not tell Lou Xiaoya the real situation.
Just let her ask Cui Xiangdong by herself.
On one side is his beloved daughter, and on the other is his former son-in-law and big boss who appreciates his talents.
Lao Lou was in a dilemma between the two of them, so he decided not to go home!
On the table.
Four dishes and one soup were laid out.
These are all things Cui Xiangdong likes to eat.
Looking at the familiar house, familiar furniture, familiar dinner, familiar woman.
Cui Xiangdong was in a daze.
But he quickly adjusted his mentality, washed his hands and started eating!
Several people chatted while eating.
In fact, Jiaojiao was asking questions, and Minrou patiently explained to her how high the building outside was, how many cars were running on the road, etc.
"Uncle, Sister Xiaoya. I'll go back and take a shower first."
Although Min Rou was a little pretentious, she was still very discerning. She knew that Lou Xiaoya definitely wanted to talk to Cui Xiangdong alone, so she took Jiaojiao away after eating.
Cui Xiangdong glanced outside the door.
Lou Xiaoya immediately said: "If you are afraid that I will stalk you, you should leave."
"You don't have to provoke me."
Cui Xiangdong said in a cold tone: "Actually, you know very well that I will never forget the scene when I just opened the door at noon that day and saw you and Zhao Jian sitting together."
Lou Xiaoya's face suddenly turned pale.
But she didn't defend herself, she just took out a folder from the case.
Contained inside were various investment agreements she signed with Chenyang Group on behalf of the Rainbow Town Government.
Even though Cui Xiangdong's current prestige in Rainbow Town has dropped to a freezing point due to "selling gangsters", he is still the mayor who is in charge of the town's economy.
Lou Xiaoya, the deputy mayor, is just one of his stoppers.
It was normal for her to sacrifice her rest time tonight to report to Cui Zhen on her recent work.
within the past week.
On behalf of Laidi Group, a subsidiary of Chenyang Group, Wang Haiyun invested in a total of eleven factories in Rainbow Town (a total of 13 empty factories).
The total investment amount is as high as 13 million!
Official recruitment started yesterday.
Cui Xiangdong listened quietly and nodded from time to time.
after an hour.
Cui Xiangdong stood up and walked towards the door: "It's getting late. We'll discuss the specific work after work tomorrow."
Lou Xiaoya's voice came from behind: "Cui Zhen."
"Well, is there anything else?"
Cui Xiangdong asked and looked back.
"Can I ask you tonight—"
Lou Xiaoya stood up and said in a difficult tone: "Would you like to eat steamed buns?"
