Fang Zhicheng's heart skipped a beat. He felt guilty, thinking that Cheng's father had discovered something. He smiled awkwardly and said, "Sister Yuming seems to be traveling recently. I haven't seen her for a while."

Father Cheng was silent for a while, then whispered, "You were very close to Cheng Bin and Yu Ming at the time. If you have the chance, see if you can help them get back together. It's better for this couple to be the original couple."

Fang Zhicheng was a little unhappy. The old couple regretted it now. Qin Yuming had suffered so much in the Cheng family, but he had never seen Cheng's father so enthusiastic. He responded by saying, "Now that Brother Cheng has just married Geng Hong, you bring up this matter. Isn't it a bit inappropriate?"

Father Cheng's face turned stern, and he said in a deep voice: "I only have Yu Ming as my daughter-in-law. As for Geng Hong, don't think I don't know what she's thinking. She's planning to sell our house now."

"Selling the house?" Fang Zhicheng said in disbelief with his eyes wide open.

"She thinks my house is too small, so she plans to sell it and buy a bigger one." Cheng's father sighed, "I am the owner of the house, so she hinted to me in disguise that she should change the name of the owner. I know what she is thinking."

Fang Zhicheng thought to himself that Geng Hong was indeed too cruel. Compared with Qin Yuming, there was a world of difference between them. Cheng Bin was also unlucky. He didn't want such a good wife and brought home a fierce one instead. His life would be difficult in the future.

As for Qin Yuming, she would never get back together with Cheng Bin. The two elders of the Cheng family ended up trapping themselves in trouble. It was the father's fault for not raising and educating the child. If they had not sided with Cheng Bin in the first place, a good family would not have fallen into the current situation.

After another seven or eight days, there was a noise coming from next door. After all, Cheng's father and mother were no match for their strong daughter-in-law Geng Hong. They first transferred the house to Cheng Bin, and then put it on the market with a real estate agency, ready to sell it at a reasonable price.

Facing the empty house, Fang Zhicheng couldn't help feeling a sense of loss. In less than half a year, everything had changed and the people had changed. The speed of change was very moving.

During this period, in addition to being busy with work, Fang Zhicheng also picked up books and prepared to apply for graduate school next year. For long-term planning of official career, academic qualifications are a hard indicator. If the academic qualifications can keep up, promotion will be much smoother in two or three years. This is what Qiu Hengde hinted to Fang Zhicheng many times.

After get off work, Fang Zhicheng just stepped out of the government compound when a black SUV honked not far away. Fang Zhicheng followed the sound and saw a pair of snow-white arms exposed in the back seat, waving at him vigorously.

Fang Zhicheng glanced over, a smile appeared on his lips, and he called out softly: "Le Le, why are you here?"

Approaching the SUV, Fang Zhicheng glanced at the person in the driver's seat, and his face suddenly darkened. The car window was only half open, and half of Du Xi's face could be vaguely seen. Half of her face was covered by sunglasses, and there was a faint smile at the corner of her mouth. Compared with the appearance on the poster, she was more handsome and attractive.

Xie Yuxin was sitting in the passenger seat. She waved at Fang Zhicheng and said with a smile, "Someone is inviting you to dinner. Hurry up and get in the car!"

Fang Zhicheng glanced at Du Xi with mixed emotions, then sat on the passenger seat with a helpless smile. As soon as Lele saw Fang Zhicheng get in the car, she threw herself into Fang Zhicheng's arms and rubbed against him.

Since the anti-trafficking incident, Lele has become very attached to Fang Zhicheng. She somehow got Fang Zhicheng's mobile phone number and secretly called Fang Zhicheng in the kindergarten's communication room several times. Fang Zhicheng is also very attentive to Lele. If there is a chance, he will pick Lele up from school from time to time. Therefore, the kindergarten teachers also know Fang Zhicheng. Occasionally, when Lele is naughty in the kindergarten, she will call Fang Zhicheng and ask him to deal with the problem.

Therefore, Xie Fang deliberately let Lele call Fang Zhicheng "godfather", and Fang Zhicheng and Xie Yuxin did not say much, indicating their tacit agreement. However, now sitting in the SUV and thinking about it, I feel a little awkward. Du Xi is Lele's godmother, and I am Lele's godfather. This relationship is a bit complicated no matter how you think about it.

Wouldn’t Du Xi and I be a perfect couple

Lele lingered on Fang Zhicheng for a while, and suddenly felt something was wrong. She held on to the seat and glanced carefully at Du Xi and Xie Yuxin, with suspicion in her cool eyes.

Fang Zhicheng touched Lele's pigtails and asked in confusion: "Lele, what's wrong?"

Lele pointed at Fang Zhicheng's chest and whispered, "Mom and godmother's milk is still there, but godfather's milk is gone."

Fang Zhicheng suddenly felt very embarrassed. Seeing the two women in front of him looking at each other knowingly, he asked with a stiff upper lip: "Where did the uncle's milk go?"

Lele held his chin, thought for a long time, and shook his head.

Du Xi, who was in the front, glanced at the rearview mirror and said casually, "He drank his godfather's milk himself."

Lele was slightly startled, then lowered his head to his chest, moved left and right, and made a gesture to drink his own milk, and said frustratedly: "Godmother, I can't drink my own milk!"

Xie Yuxin and Du Xi both laughed, and Fang Zhicheng felt his scalp tingling and sweat oozing out. How should he answer? In front of these two beauties, should he explain to this little Lolita the difference between men and women

Lele thought thoughtfully: "Maybe the puppy drank uncle's milk."

Fang Zhicheng smiled bitterly, cleared his throat, and said, "Yes, the puppy is too thirsty."

Chapter 0085: The National Goddess Is Furious

The four of them had dinner at Pizza Hut. Because Du Xi wrapped herself up well, no one noticed that the national goddess Du Xi was around. This was the second time Fang Zhicheng and Du Xi had dinner at the same table. In addition, the previous scandal had gotten him into trouble, so Du Xi had already fallen from the throne of the goddess.

Lele was not very careful when eating, and the greasy pizza fell on her pure white cotton jacket, leaving oil stains. Xie Yuxin criticized her a few words, then took Lele to the bathroom and asked her to clean her clothes first.

Du Xi sipped the drink, making a sizzling sound. Fang Zhicheng subconsciously frowned. Du Xi was good at observing people's expressions and raised his eyebrows and asked, "Are you dissatisfied with me?"

Fang Zhicheng shrugged and asked, "If you were used by others, would you be happy?"

"Stingy man." Du Xi pouted and said, "That incident was just a coincidence, an idea that the team came up with temporarily. Because of this, your photo also made the headlines of the entertainment section of major newspapers. Isn't this an honor?"

Fang Zhicheng was very dissatisfied with Du Xi's arrogant logic. He snorted and said, "I don't want to join your circle."

Du Xi frowned and asked, "What happened to our circle?"

Fang Zhicheng then exaggerated his understanding of the entertainment industry. Seeing Du Xi's fair face turned red with anger, he said proudly, "It is said that the more popular a star is in the entertainment industry, the more often they sleep with directors. I don't know if this is true. Of course, I just heard it from someone. If it's abrupt or untrue, don't take it to heart, Miss Du."

Du Xi said angrily: "I didn't expect you to be so short-sighted and narrow-minded. It's really speechless." After that, Du Xi ignored Fang Zhicheng and buried his head in drinking his drink.

Seeing Du Xi silent, Fang Zhicheng felt a little embarrassed, wondering if he had gone too far. Then he changed his mind and thought that Du Xi had caused him so much bad luck last time, so it would be okay to hit her now. Who made Du Xi act like a big star and the best in the world all day long

In fact, Fang Zhicheng didn't know that by provoking Du Xi like this, he also wanted to attract Du Xi's attention.

If a man deliberately makes fun of a beautiful woman, he probably wants the woman to look at him more. This is similar to the way a peacock spreads its feathers to attract the attention of the opposite sex.

Xie Yuxin returned to her seat and saw Du Xi's grim expression. She also saw Fang Zhicheng with a smug smile on his face. She asked Du Xi softly, "What's wrong? Miss Du, you seem very unhappy."

Du Xi sarcastically said, "Some people look down on those of us in the entertainment industry, and I don't want to stay any longer. How about paying the bill?"

Xie Yuxin gave Fang Zhicheng a look, and Fang Zhicheng turned around and whispered with Lele, ignoring Du Xi completely. This made Du Xi so angry that he almost vomited blood.
