Chapter 335: Chapter 336 Shu Tong’s Parents Have Arrived
When I saw the caller ID, my heart suddenly jumped; it turned out to be Liusu. However, when the phone was connected, it was Shu Tong’s voice that ca out, “Chu Nan, where the hell are you, why aren’t you ho? ! And why isn’t Chu Yuan at ho as well?!”
‘That is all because of the stupid assignnt you left her! !’ Shu Tong’s unkind and unreasonable questioning was like a burning match falling into a gasoline can; it instantly caused my anger to burst out. I almost wanted to curse her over the phone. But in the end, I still held it back because I knew that taking out my anger on her was unreasonable. Even if I didn’t co to the company with Chu Yuan, I would still et with Ziyuan eventually.
Taking a deep breath two tis, I barely managed to calm myself, “I’m in Fengchang, what’s wrong?”
“In Fengchang? What are you doing in Fengchang?”
From Shu Tong’s tone, it seed like she still didn’t know I hadn’t resigned? I was a little surprised, but then I heard her say with a panicked tone, “Forget it, we will talk about it when we et. I will pick you up at your company imdiately. This is so annoying! My parents and grandma are coming to Bei Tian city now!”
“What? !” I was taken aback, “Why all of sudden? Did they not notify you in advance? !”
“They called at noon yesterday and said that they would co to Bei Tian city soon, but I didn’t expect them to co so quickly,” Shu Tong said intermittently, “I thought they would co to Bei Tian city during the weekend…”
The ti of her family’s arrival was very important to the entire plan. If there was a slight mistake, it would expose the entire plan of deceiving her family. But this natural airhead actually didn’t ask it clearly when they would arrive. She just assud that they would arrive on the weekend… I didn’t even know what to say to her.
Shu Tong seed to be running while talking, she was panting very badly, “Can you hurry up and get to the entrance of your company, I will pick you up there. We need to get to the station as soon as possible.”
“Okay, I got it…” I reluctantly responded, and then asked carefully, “Liusu… Is she with you?”
Hearing the na of Liusu, a girl and two won stared at my face in unison. I couldn’t help but blush inexplicably.
“Of course, how else do you think I am going to pick you up? I can’t drive. I need her to drive the car. I ca out in a hurry in the morning, so I forgot to take my phone with . Fortunately, she is with ,” Then Shu Tong said with a slightly angry tone, “I know it is not my place to criticize you, but you are a really terrible boyfriend, you know that? Liusu has been sick in the past few days, but not only did you not co to see her, but you never even called her. Just what kind of boyfriend are you?”
“Cousin…” Liusu finally said sothing to Shu Tong, trying to stop Shu Tong from scolding .
Shu Tong’s voice was a bit loud, and Chu Yuan, Mo Fei, and Ziyuan were all standing around ; they all vaguely heard what Shu Tong said, and they all showed a different expression that I didn’t know how to describe.
“She is sick? Ah, Ahem, I’m sorry, I was indeed in the wrong. I’ll apologize to her…” I was telling the truth, but under the cold gazes of Chu Yuan and Mo Fei, and Ziyuan’s suppressed smile, I could only answer vaguely.
I also felt very strange why I lacked even just a little confidence.
I didn’t pay attention to what Chu Yuan said. I only saw that she hung up the phone before . But before she could speak, I asked, “Who called you?”
Chu Yuan originally wanted to ask questions first. She felt a bit resentful after being cut off by so abruptly. However, in front of Mo Fei, Ziyuan, Mo Yizhi, and Long Shan, she felt embarrassed to show an angry look, so she could only honestly say, “Dongfang, she said that soone had knocked on our door just now, and she was scared. I told her that it should be Ms. Shu and Elder Sister Liusu who knocked on the door…”
“Liusu…” Ziyuan asked curiously, “Is it a girl?”
I nodded, “Um…”
“It’s my elder brother’s girlfriend,” Chu Yuan suddenly interjected, “they started dating when they were in college.”
Not just , even Mo Fei was also surprised, because we all knew that Chu Yuan was lying. First of all, I had not told her that Liusu was my girlfriend. Secondly, Mo Fei also knew very well that I had only decided to officially start a relationship with Liusu not long ago…
“Oh? You already have a girlfriend,” Ziyuan was very calm and smiled at slightly jokingly, “Is she pretty? If you have the opportunity, please introduce her to . ”
All n were more or less a little narcissistic, although there was no basis for it. When a girl showed a certain degree of affection to them, even if it was only a little bit of affection, they would think that she liked them. Even if they clearly knew that they were clearly thinking too much.
I couldn’t tell whether it was relieved or lost. I nodded to Ziyuan with a complicated feeling, but the heaviness in my heart eased a lot. Then I heard Mo Fei say indifferently, “You will have plenty of opportunities to et her. She is also a Fengchang employee. And she also works in the investnt departnt.”
“Oh?” Ziyuan said with a smile, “That’s great, Xiao Nan, can you ask her out tonight? Let’s go have dinner together. Of course, it’s your treat.”
“I’m afraid today is probably not a good day…” I smiled bitterly, “I’m in a bit of a hurry. I have to go now. Can we change it to tomorrow?”
As the host, I was supposed to take the initiative to invite Ziyuan who ca back from abroad to dinner to welco her back. However, I had already made a promise to Shu Tong, so I could only decline Ziyuan’s dinner proposal.
I didn’t conceal my apology and helplessness. Ziyuan frowned and said, “What’s so urgent?”
Mo Fei also asked, “That call just now, it should be Liusu’s cousin, right?”
“Mhm,” I nodded and glanced at Mo Yizhi. The old fox put on a smiling face, making unable to understand what he was thinking. After hesitating, I eventually told them what happened…
No matter how strange my situation was, I was still just a small employee after all, so I needed a reason to leave. Not to ntion that there was Ziyuan who I hadn’t seen for a very long ti. So I simply told them what Shu Tong had asked to do, and asked them to keep it secret.
“Asking her boyfriend to pretend to be her cousin’s boyfriend, hehe, Xiao Nan, your girlfriend is very interesting.”
I really couldn’t tell whether Ziyuan was complinting Liusu or mocking Liusu.
“I don’t know what you and Cheng Liusu are thinking in your heads. This is ridiculous,” Mo Fei said it like this, but she had already put her car key in my hand, “You can drive my car to pick up her grandma. It is not easy for old people to make a long trip to co to the city. Even if it’s a lie, you still need to take care of them and let them stay here for a few more days. There are still many good places in Bei Tian city.”
Before I could decline, Mo Fei said first, “Aunt Shan will take ho after work. You don’t have to worry about . The rented car is not easy to drive. You are more familiar with my car, so just take it.”
I really didn’t dare to decline it anymore, because I clearly noticed that the way Ziyuan looked at and Mo Fei started to beco strange.
…
I didn’t mind using the word ‘escape’ to describe my mood when I left the company.
Ziyuan ca back suddenly and appeared in Fengchang, which made very excited; but after the excitent, it was uncontrollable anxiety.
Suspicions were not the source of fear. The source of fear was often the answers one guessed. It was like there were no ghosts in the world, but there were a group of people who were afraid of ghosts.
I needed so ti to sort out my thoughts, digest the fear of the speculation that scared , and then go to Ziyuan calmly to verify the answers I guessed one by one.
I knew that Chu Yuan, who felt guilty, did not dare to stay with Ziyuan, so when she begged to take her with , I readily agreed.
There was also one more reason why I wanted to bring Chu Yuan with . It was that I hoped Chu Yuan could explain to Liusu why I appeared in the company today.
Mo Fei was afraid of embarrassnt, so she deliberately avoided Liusu. Ziyuan had just beco Mo Fei’s assistant, so there were many work problems that needed to be arranged and explained to her, therefore neither of them went downstairs.
When Liusu saw that Chu Yuan was with , her gloomy little face obviously beca a little better, but when she saw that I was holding Mo Fei’s car key in my hand, her face darkened again. However, Shu Tong was very excited because Mo Fei’s BMW was of a higher grade than the Honda comrcial car she rented.
I guessed that Liusu definitely wanted to oppose it. She didn’t oppose it in the end because she was trying to have a cold war with , and she didn’t want to laugh at her for being a jealous girlfriend.
After Chu Yuan got out of the company, she imdiately changed her mind and told that she wanted to go ho. The first reason was that she didn’t like to et strangers, and the second reason was that she was not in the mood to fool old people with .
Liusu didn’t want Chu Yuan to see that she was angry with , and Shu Tong didn’t want her student to see her embarrassnt, so we took a little detour and sent Chu Yuan back ho.
When we rushed to the station, the late train ca slowly into the station. Fortunately, in this way, we avoided the embarrassnt of being late.
