Lin Manla's face immediately darkened when she heard this. Although she didn't know Tang Zhongkai's current position, she knew something about his father. Originally, she should have expected the gap between the two families, but she never expected that such a small shrimp like herself could actually help Tang Zhongkai's mother come to the door in person.
Next, is she going to give herself a check to stay away from his son? Lin Manla recalled the plots in TV and scripts in the past, and felt that something like this was about to happen to him.
But Ning Xiaowan did not take out the check. Instead, she poked her head to look inside Lin Manla's house, "Won't you invite me in to sit down?"
"Ah?" Lin Manla was stunned, "Aren't you going to give me a check?"
"Check? What check?" Ning Xiaowan was confused and even thought that Lin Manla's brain was burned out.
Is this stupid girl in front of me really the one that my stupid, scheming son likes? Oh my god, will such a stupid wife affect her grandson's genes in the future? No, is it too early to consider this now? Ning Xiaowan secretly beat herself up in her heart.
Although Lin Manla didn't know why Ning Xiaowan came to her place today, she was an elder after all, and it was obvious that she didn't mean to embarrass herself, so she quickly got out of the way and went to the shoe cabinet again. Give Ning Xiaowan the slippers.
When Lin Manla opened the shoe cabinet, Ning Xiaowan caught a glimpse of the men's slippers inside. It seemed that Tang Zhongkai had already been here. In addition, Ning Xiaowan also looked at Lin Manla carefully from top to bottom, and the furnishings in the house were still decorated.
Lin Manla led her to the sofa where she had just been sitting, and then went to pour her tea.
"Auntie, let's drink some jasmine tea." Lin Manla rubbed her hands awkwardly, because Lin Manla usually didn't have the habit of drinking tea, so the only thing in the refrigerator was what her mother brought when she came to see her last time. Jasmine.
Although Lin Manla didn't have time to clean herself up today, such an unadorned appearance made Ning Xiaowan more comfortable. In addition, the furnishings in this home are mainly simple and fresh, but the coffee table in front of the TV is
It seems that there are... too many snacks. However, this is understandable, girls!
Lin Manla's eyes followed Ning Xiaowan's. Wherever she saw, she also saw. Because she didn't know the purpose of her coming today, whether she was here to beat the mandarin ducks or to test the enemy's situation, Lin Manla did not take the initiative to speak for a while.
"Do you usually talk so little? How did you discuss your project?" Ning Xiaowan looked at Lin Manla strangely, then she also picked up the teacup and blew on the hot air.
Lin Manla didn't know how to answer, so she just smiled awkwardly.
Seeing that Lin Manla had been so nervous, Ning Xiaowan relaxed first.
"Originally, I heard from my little sister that I met Zhongkai and you on the street. I thought it was that girl Yujing, but later I found out she wasn't. So I dragged my friend to check. Today I I didn’t tell Tang Zhongkai when I came here, and I hope you won’t tell him either.”
Coming? Coming? Lin Manla's heart suddenly became a little hot. Could it be that the long-awaited story of a bad mother-in-law making things difficult for her daughter-in-law will come next
It’s obvious that Ning Xiaowan is not the bad mother-in-law in the story. She simply asked about Lin Manla’s family situation and also had a brief understanding of the development between the two. To Lin Manla, she felt... more like a gentle head teacher in school
"Auntie, I thought..."
"You think I must be the kind of bad mother-in-law in the TV series, and I came here today just to break up you two miserable couple, don't you?" Ning Xiaowan made an exaggerated expression while speaking, as if she was really there. It's like acting in a TV series.
However, Ning Xiaowan, who was so interesting, could not make Lin Manla relax. Instead, she smiled even more nervously.
"You juniors actually got together to deceive us old men and old ladies. Hey, old lady, I'm really sad!" Ning Xiaowan didn't change her dramatist nature and continued to perform.
Lin Manla also felt a little embarrassed. As early as the day they got together, Tang Zhongkai said that he was just acting for his parents when he drank Zhong Yujing, but Lin Manla had always felt that this
This was wrong, but she really didn't have confidence in herself. She didn't know what to do at the moment, so she could only listen to Tang Zhongkai's arrangements.
What's more, they have only been together for a few months, and no matter what, they are still not ready to get married, so Lin Manla also deliberately made herself forget these bad things and live in the present.
Ning Xiaowan saw that Lin Manla was really "stupid", so she didn't ask about her anymore, but she knew in her heart that she might not be of much help to Tang Zhongkai's future, but as long as she could be sincere The ground is together, which is pretty good. Originally, their family didn't need any marriage to support their appearance.
Lin Manla just listened to Ning Xiaowan's questions in a daze, and then sent the person away in a daze. After a while, Lin Manla realized what he had just done.
Oh my god, I didn't take care of myself at all just now, and my house... Lin Manla looked around, but luckily it wasn't particularly messy. However, from what Ning Xiaowan said just now, maybe these are nothing in her eyes? Also, it seems like she just mentioned the cocktail party tonight? And she still asked herself not to attend and asked Zhong Yujing to go for her
Lin Manla had a headache, but he had clearly promised Tang Zhongkai to attend. If he suddenly couldn't say yes now, would it make him feel that he had broken his promise? Maybe, or just say you feel unwell? Auntie is here! My foot is sprained! There's always a reason, right
But when Tang Zhongkai came back, before Lin Manla had time to tell him about Ning Xiaowan's visit today, Tang Zhongkai mentioned the reception first, and the name he mentioned was Zhong Yujing. It seems that Ning Xiaowan also informed Tang Zhongkai in advance, and I don't know what she said, but she was able to convince Tang Zhongkai.
However, although Lin Manla knew in her heart that Zhong Yujing was a much more suitable person to attend the reception than herself, when her boyfriend told her that he was going to take another woman to the reception, Lin Manla felt that It was still a little uncomfortable, no matter how indifferent she appeared on the face.
Just as she was struggling, Lin Manla's phone rang...
