Half an hour later, Lingxiao Manor.
Leng Lingxiao, who was looking forward to having his little wife come back from get off work and having lunch with her, received two messages.
[I'm sorry Huahua, I miss grandma, and I decided to go to Huangcheng at the last minute. I will come back to have dinner with you tomorrow. I love you! 】
[Don’t worry, Cheng Shi is following you. 】
After reading the message, the man's hot heart instantly became as cold as ice, and his eyes were full of loss.
That's easy to say. If you say you don't worry, you won't worry anymore? I won't worry if Cheng Shi is following me. How is that possible?
Leng Lingxiao frowned and dialed the phone.
But before he could ask, the soft voice of the young wife came from the other end of the phone: "What's wrong, my dear handsome man? You don't miss me, do you? So fast!"
The man's thoughts were captured by her words.
"Don't be so cute, I just want to ask, have you seen my newly bought tie?"
Tang Xiaowan was stunned when he heard this.
New tie? I bought four pairs recently, how do I know which one you are referring to?
Oh, I see!
"Bought it new! Oh, it seems to be thrown on the chest of drawers in the cloakroom." Tang Xiaowan replied gently, but in fact, she was just talking nonsense.
Of course, men are not stupid.
He knew that this was the little wife who was teasing him, but since she said it, he should cooperate.
"Oh, on the chest of drawers, I got it."
"Excuse me, is there anything else?"
"I made pig's trotters, braised with rock sugar, so I won't leave them for you. Okay, that's it."
Before Tang Xiaowan could answer, Leng Lingxiao quickly hung up the phone, but his deep eyes flashed, making it hard to tell whether he was happy or angry.
"Madam... you want to work overtime?" Zhao Renjie asked softly, not even daring to take a breath.
"Going to the airport, Huang Cheng."
Zhao Renjie: "?"
She looks soft, sweet, and juicy, but when she does things, she does things neatly and without ambiguity.
Not a family, don't enter the same door!
Zhao Renjie thought of this sentence immediately.
"Master, it's probably not too late. Madam must not have boarded the plane yet. Do you need..."
"I miss Grandma Tang, let her be."
Although Leng Lingxiao said this, he had mixed feelings in his heart.
Less than a week after receiving the certificate, have you fallen out of favor?
I'm a good, seven-foot-tall man with a jade tree and the wind, but am I so unattractive in your eyes?
snort! Let's settle the accounts when we get back, even if we kneel down and beg for forgiveness... it won't work. The newlyweds are like glue, and they are all just deceiving others.
You're so heartless, you're so mad at me!
"Master, could it be that Madam found out about the Jiang family, was touched, and is worried about Mrs. Tang?"
Zhao Renjie's guess was very accurate.
But Leng Lingxiao had watched Tang Xiaowan grow up, so he naturally thought of it.
The reason why no one in Lingxiao Manor talks about the Jiang family is because it is controllable. But it is different in other places. Not only are there many employees in Chihai, but there are also customers from all over the world. I heard that one or two is normal.
"Go down and evacuate everyone from Chunlei Street. Don't let Tangtang misunderstand anymore." Leng Lingxiao nodded thoughtfully and ordered softly.
"Yes, Master."
So Zhao Renjie immediately called and conveyed Leng Lingxiao's order.
The restaurant was deathly quiet.
Until a moment later, several servants entered the restaurant one after another carrying exquisite dishes.
Leng Lingxiao glanced at the casserole coldly. Inside it was braised pig's trotters, which he specially made for Tang Xiaowan and stewed for two hours.
How could he eat without the company of his little wife? He wasted a table full of delicious food.
"Master, may I serve you a bowl of soup?"
Leng Lingxiao said nothing, tapping the table with his slender fingers.
At this moment, Shen Yiming came slowly. He first signaled for Zhao Renjie to leave, and then sat down opposite Leng Lingxiao with a smile, as if he was just watching the fun and not taking it too seriously.
"Why, that little girl...is only leaving for one day...and is she planning to go on a hunger strike?"
"Tangtang, is it for you..."
Leng Lingxiao was so angry that he hesitated to speak.
"Well, I said hello in advance. How about I leave my wife and children alone and come to find you?"
Leng Lingxiao said in surprise: "Child?"
"Please, the one in the belly counts. Hey, the little guy may be struggling. You said he is only one month old...how can he be so capable?"
"Li Ruonan's morning sickness has gotten worse again?"
"It's not that good, I'm so worried! I said, those nourishing soups you made...couldn't they have been tricked by others? Hey, why don't they seem to have any effect?"
"Those are some expensive medicinal materials. My mother specially prepared them for Tangtang, and she's so picky!"
"Just kidding, let's eat."
"I'm not hungry." Leng Lingxiao replied lightly, his lost eyes unconsciously glancing at the empty seat next to him.
"Oh, just think of it as accompanying me. If you don't eat, how can I, a guest, have the nerve to put down my chopsticks?"
"Okay then, let's eat."
The deserted restaurant now felt a touch of warmth, and the two grown men began to chat while eating.
In the past few days, due to Li Ruonan's severe morning sickness, Shen Yiming had been eating with him in the bedroom. The reason he came out now was indeed to appease Leng Lingxiao's frustrated heart.
Of course, Tang Xiaowan had specifically asked her to do so. Naturally, she knew her best.
…
On the other side, boarding is complete.
Tang Xiaowan smiled and showed no panic at all because she was about to see her grandma.
Seeing how calm Tang Xiaowan was, Cheng Shi couldn't help but be curious and asked: "Miss, let's go over... why don't we tell the old lady?"
Tang Xiaowan slowly turned her head and smiled mysteriously at Cheng Shi: "Don't worry, someone will tell you."
Because she knew that Leng Lingxiao must be angry, and the complaint call would have been made before the plane arrived in Huangcheng.
Cheng Shi was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
Shortly after the plane took off, the flight attendants began to serve lunch to the passengers one by one.
Tang Xiaowan and Cheng Shi's lunch was an exquisite Western meal, which included two pieces of tenderly fried beef, vegetables and mashed potatoes.
Opening the lunch box, the aroma is fragrant.
Cheng Shi took a taste of the beef, and the tender and juicy taste made him smile.
Sure enough, you get what you pay for!
He took a deep breath and tasted the delicious food while feeling the tranquility and comfort of the flight.
In the first class cabin, Cheng Shi enjoyed a more private and luxurious space, as well as attentive service, which was different from his previous experience.
Yes, after all, Tang Xiaowan used to take Lin Xiaoxiao with her on long trips, and he was only responsible for driving.
Gradually, Tang Xiaowan felt sleepy.
She adjusted the angle of the seat to find a comfortable position, then closed the shades, closed her eyes, and gradually fell asleep as the plane flew through the clouds.
In the quiet cabin, other passengers were also enjoying their own time.
Some of them were chatting in low voices, some were enjoying music alone, and some were admiring the beautiful scenery outside the window. Only Cheng Shi was looking forward and sitting upright.
As a bodyguard, he did not dare to let down his guard.
Time passed quietly, and at 2:30 in the afternoon, the plane landed smoothly at Huangcheng Airport.
"Wow, it's finally here!"
"Miss, do you want to take a rest first and let me tell Lao Li?" Cheng Shi asked softly.
"Just take a taxi back, it'll be fine."
So they immediately took a taxi and rushed to Chunlei Street. At this time, Tang Xiaowan's expression suddenly became excited and no longer calm.
She misses grandma so much!
Although Huangcheng is not a real home for Tang Xiaowan, her grandmother Tang Mei is here, and this is the place where Tang Mei was born, so she has a sense of intimacy.
When the taxi arrived at the door of No. 66, as she expected, her grandma was already waiting for her.
She rushed into Tang Mei's arms without saying a word.
"Hey, what's going on?" Tang Mei patted Tang Xiaowan's back and said with a smile.
"Grandma, I haven't seen you for a long time. You don't know how to come over to see me. You rarely make phone calls. I call you every time. Do you miss me at all?"
The sudden incident in Jiang's family had a great impact on Tang Xiaowan, reminding her once again of the car accident in July and the night attack on Meiyuan in August.
The fragmentation of her memory frightened her.
At this moment, she hugged her grandma tightly, feeling unspeakable feelings and worries in her heart.
"Exaggeration, we haven't seen each other for only nine days!"
"That's also...it's been a long, long time, and you don't even know it. I miss you so much, you've..."
Tang Xiaowan spoke intermittently, tears welling up in her eyes, as if she had been greatly wronged, and Granny Yu's eyes were filled with tears.
"Miss, don't cry, what's wrong?"
"Grandma Yu, I miss you so much. Do you miss Tangtang?" Tang Xiaowan curled her lips and said.
"Think about it, can you not think about it?"
After saying this, Granny Yu quickly took out a tissue and wanted to wipe Tang Xiaowan's face, but Tang Mei waved her hand to indicate that she didn't need it.
I still don’t understand my granddaughter!
Even if Leng Lingxiao didn't call an hour ago, Tang Mei would have made a good guess.
"Did that bad boy Leng Lingxiao... bully you?" Tang Mei asked with raised eyebrows.
In fact, she had a clear mind.
"Well, yes, grandma, you don't even know... He's so annoying. I'm already tired from going to work every day, but he still insists on making me get up early to exercise. It's so big, it's the whole The manor! And when eating, it’s always..."
Tang Xiaowan's face turned red when she complained, and she regarded Leng Lingxiao's advantages as shortcomings.
As he spoke, Tang Mei was pulled into the house.
Grandma Yu couldn't help laughing when she listened to Tang Xiaowan's story. It turned out that the so-called bullying was actually a little sweetness between the two young people.
So, she suppressed her laughter and walked slowly to the kitchen, ready to cut some delicious fruits.
"Tangtang, you are not young anymore. You have to distinguish between good and bad." Tang Mei comforted her gently, "Leng Lingxiao is not that kind of...unreasonable person. He is helping you and trying to make you change." Gotta be stronger.”
Tang Xiaowan pouted and said a little unconvinced: "But he, he is a man, he..."
"Isn't it a man... or a woman?"
"Anyway, he is bullying me anyway. You can't talk to him. You have to go to Chicheng to accompany me and support me."
"Grandma can't go, there are still things to do."
"What? What is more important than your precious granddaughter?"
"It's a secret, I can't tell you!"
As soon as Tang Mei finished speaking, the doorbell rang, and the housekeeper Li Fugui went straight to open the door.
It turned out to be Wang Jinghui. He was holding a wooden tray and looked very energetic, especially when he saw Tang Xiaowan.
This is the red line between him and Tang Mei. Without her, progress would not be so fast.
"Hey, our little Tangtang is back!"
Wang Jinghui walked into the room with a smile, but when he saw Tang Xiaowan's eyes were red, he immediately asked with concern: "Tangtang, why are you crying? Could it be that brat Leng Lingxiao bullied you?"
Tang Xiaowan: "..."
Tang Mei: Well, you can continue to complain, preferably with snot and tears.
Tang Xiaowan looked at Wang Jinghui with a smile, shook her head quickly and replied: "No, no, it's not grandpa, I just miss grandma too much."
Tang Mei: Huh? Why don't you sue? Weren't you very eloquent just now? Confusing right and wrong!
"Yes, it's been a long time!" Wang Jinghui put down the tray and nodded in understanding, "Don't leave when you come back this time. Your grandma and I just started a new small vegetable garden. You can stay as a helper and we'll have it soon. Fresh vegetables!”
When Tang Xiaowan heard this, her eyes lit up: "Wow, there is a small vegetable garden, there must be spinach, right?"
"That's necessary, this season..."
At this time, Granny Yu came out with two plates of fruit. She looked at Tang Xiaowan and Wang Jinghui and couldn't help but sigh in her heart: These two people are really similar. They even have the same hobby of growing vegetables!
With this in mind, she turned her attention to Tang Mei, who was sitting quietly on the sofa.
It would be great if Madam agreed to propose!
In this way, the young lady will have a grandfather, then a father, a mother, a complete family, and, by the way, Mr. Leng, how wonderful!
"Okay, okay, let's sit down first." Tang Mei interrupted the chat with a greeting.
Wang Jinghui quickly nodded in agreement: "Yes, yes, come on, Tangtang, try the black plum cake grandpa just made, and I will rate it later."
Upon hearing this, Tang Xiaowan quickly picked up a piece with a smile and sat next to Tang Mei.
"Wow, I made it myself, it's amazing!"
As a red line, she is very qualified. Not only will she give Wang Jinghui advice behind the scenes, but she will also cooperate when it is necessary.
Black plum cake is Tang Mei’s favorite snack.
Tang Xiaowan didn't like eating very much, but she still ate happily.
So, the three of them sat around the living room, tasting plum cakes, eating fruits, and drinking tea. A warm atmosphere filled the air.
Until half an hour later, the doorbell rang.
Ding dong, ding dong, ding dong...
Tang Xiaowan suddenly had a bad premonition, which could also be said to be a guilty conscience.
Oh my god, isn't it Huahua who's coming after me?
Forgot to forget, he has a helicopter, it is very convenient to come to Huangcheng, and the time is almost the same.
If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have sued him!
So, Tang Xiaowan quickly stood up and ran to the front hall in a flash, as fast as a rabbit, directly ahead of Li Fugui.
"I'll come, I'll come. Lao Li, just go and do your business. I'll just open the door."
Li Fugui nodded: "Yes, Miss."
