"Yes, yes, but..."
Jiang Baobao hesitated for two seconds and then said: "But the game is about to start. I have been at the base recently and I probably don't have time at night. If you want to go out for dinner, you can only make an appointment at noon.
"Okay, let's have lunch then." Cai Xiaotang agreed happily.
But Jiang Baobao still asked a little uneasily: "So what's wrong with you? Can't you tell me a little bit first?"
"I..." Cai Xiaotang opened her mouth, looking like she was hesitant to speak.
After a long pause, he spoke in a low voice: "I can't understand it over the phone. It's better to wait until we meet tomorrow and I'll tell you in person..."
"Okay, then you have a good rest today. We'll see you tomorrow and I'll treat you to something delicious."
Jiang Baobao did not continue to press, but comforted her for a few words before hanging up the phone.
…
the next day.
Jiang Baobao also got up early.
She didn't bother to make breakfast for the little ones, and went directly to the training base to perfect the battle plan she had made.
It wasn't until noon that I hurriedly drove to the restaurant I had made an appointment with Cai Xiaotang last night.
As soon as Jiang Baobao entered the door, he saw Cai Xiaotang already sitting there, but he seemed to have no energy and was looking out the window in a daze.
"Xiaotang, what are you thinking about?"
Jiang Baobao quickly walked over, pulled out a chair and sat down opposite Cai Xiaotang.
Cai Xiaotang suddenly came back to her senses. When she saw Jiang Baobao coming, her eyes lit up and she grabbed her hand!
"Baby! I finally see you!" Her tone was inexplicably excited, and she looked at Jiang Baobao eagerly, successfully frightening her.
"What's wrong with you? Tell me quickly, I've been worried all night! If you keep trying, I'll get really angry!" Seeing her look like she had been wronged, Jiang Baobao's heart suddenly lifted.
Cai Xiaotang sighed heavily and said in a low voice: "Then I said...sit tight...don't be too surprised..."
Jiang Baobao nodded, but his expression became more and more confused. He didn't know what the person in front of him wanted to say to him.
Then I heard Cai Xiaotang lower her voice and whisper: "I...will...get married...in a few days..."
Her voice became softer and softer as she spoke, and the words "marriage" became even more vague.
Jiang Baobao didn't hear anything clearly and asked helplessly: "Please explain every word clearly. What's going on? Are you encountering financial difficulties? The number is so big that you are embarrassed to speak?"
Apart from this possibility, Jiang Baobao couldn't think of anything else for a while.
Cai Xiaotang shook her head and repeated helplessly: "I want... to get married."
"What! Get married!"
Jiang Baobao was stunned when he heard this. He couldn't control his volume for a moment. As soon as he finished speaking, he attracted the attention of other guests around him.
Cai Xiaotang laughed awkwardly twice, then looked at Jiang Baobao speechlessly and said, "Why are you so loud! What's so surprising about getting married..."
"Nonsense! Can I not be surprised when you suddenly say you want to get married?" Jiang Baobao said to Cai Xiaotang in a rare and irritable tone.
Immediately afterwards, he asked with a frown: "What's going on? Why are you getting married so well? Are you being threatened by someone?"
Jiang Baobao's brain was a little confused, and he was afraid that Cai Xiaotang would do something stupid.
Cai Xiaotang's expression became a little subtle.
Thinking that this was the end of the matter, he simply said, "You may not believe it, but the person I want to marry is Li Xiao."
"Li Xiao?" Jiang Baobao looked even more surprised. He sat blankly in his position, unable to recover for a while.
She was stunned for two seconds, and then she hurriedly asked: "How could it be Li Xiao? Didn't you treat him before... What the hell is going on!"
Jiang Baobao's face was full of doubts and confusion, waiting for Cai Xiaotang to give him an answer.
Didn't Xiaotang avoid Li Xiao before?
Why are you getting married all of a sudden!
Jiang Baobao almost had the word "why" written on his face.
Cai Xiaotang opened her mouth and didn't know where to start explaining for a while.
Thinking of Li Xiao's previous warning to him, he could only find an excuse at random: "Anyway... I was on a business trip two days ago, and then... I happened to meet him in the hotel... and then..."
"Then you fell in love with him at first sight and suddenly felt that he was not bad. The two of them hit it off and decided to get married?" Jiang Baobao took the words expressionlessly and said without waiting for Cai Xiaotang's reply, he said speechlessly: " Comrade Cai Xiaotang, do you think I am a five-year-old child?"
Cai Xiaotang's eyes flickered for a moment, and she was speechless.
She also wants to tell Baby Jiang the truth!
But I just can’t say it now!
Cai Xiaotang sighed helplessly in her heart, and then tried hard to defend herself: "Anyway... considering his status, it can save a lot of trouble, right? And he is indeed very handsome. ...You can't tell your age just by looking at his face, and his personality is barely passable. Considering many aspects, he is a very suitable candidate for marriage..."
"You mean, you kind of like him too?" Jiang Baobao took the words hesitantly.
Cai Xiaotang nodded slightly and said reluctantly: "Probably... so..."
Jiang Baobao frowned, still a little unconvinced.
She knew Cai Xiaotang too well and knew that this was not her usual style.
"Xiaotang, why did you suddenly change your mind and want to get married?"
Jiang Baobao continued to ask.
Cai Xiaotang was stunned when he heard this, and then tried hard to find an excuse to answer: "Because... I suddenly figured out something... I thought... maybe getting married is a good choice, mainly because... it has something to do with my family. Bar……"
Jiang Baobao's eyes flickered for a moment, he thought for two seconds, and didn't ask any more questions.
Although she is not very clear about Xiaotang's family affairs, it seems to have caused a lot of trouble to her...
Could she be like my beloved sister...
No, according to Xiaotang's character, it won't happen.
Moreover, Li Xiao had made it clear that he had a good impression of Xiaotang before.
When the two met unexpectedly, something must have happened that they didn't know about...
It’s just that Xiaotang doesn’t want to say it.
Jiang Baobao sighed helplessly in his heart. He knew what decisions she had made and he couldn't dissuade her, so he had to confirm again: "Have you really thought about marrying Li Xiao? The Li family also knows it. Is this the case?"
Cai Xiaotang nodded: "Well... he said he would go back and tell his family today. When you go home at night, Li Beijue might also tell you about it."
Jiang Baobao was stunned for a moment, feeling suddenly confused about whether to laugh or cry.
Xiaotang was still in the mood to joke back then. If the two of them really got married, she would really become Li Beijue's little aunt!
