Mu's old house.
Early in the morning, when Yan Zhenli was still in a daze, she received a call from Mu Nanfeng, saying that Mu Haifeng's flight was back to S City today, and he would come back, too, with a surprise.
Yan Zhenli asked what kind of surprise it was. Who would have thought that Mu Nanfeng's mouth was strict. Since he refused to reveal a word, he just said "you'll know when you get home" and hung up the phone.
"It's almost ten o'clock. You said that he came from Lushui Lily, but he can't tell how far, why is it so long?" Yan Zhenli was restless, and when she looked up and saw Mu Haifan sitting alone in front of the chessboard, she was even more anxious.
What has Mu Haifan never experienced? It's just a little late now, so it's worth worrying about? Wouldn't it make people saddened by so many intrigues in the shopping mall.
"The heavy snow just stopped yesterday, the road may not be easy to walk, safety first."
"Yes." Yan Zhenli agreed, and she became quiet again.
After waiting for another half an hour, instead of waiting for Mu Nanfeng, who might have come first, Yan Zhenli expected Mu Haifeng to come.
Seeing the return of the only younger brother, Mu Haifan finally left the chessboard. The two brothers hadn't seen each other for several months. When they met, they didn't say a word before giving a strong hug.
"It's hard work." Mu Haifan patted Mu Haifeng's back.
Mu Haifeng always had a faint smile on his face: "It should be."
The two of them were left to talk in the living room. Yan Zhenli went to the kitchen to help Aunt Zhou prepare snacks. It was cold now, and Auntie was stewing pork ribs soup on the stove last week. When Yan Zhenli went in, she was steaming hot.
"Is this soup almost ready?" Lifting the lid, Yan Zhenli scooped out a little and tasted it.
"It seems to be a little lighter. Auntie remembers to add a little salt to the pot later. It's okay to simmer for a while. Nanfeng hasn't come back yet."
It's rare for the family to be so lively. The last time there were many people, Aunt Zhou couldn't remember when it was.
"Young master hasn't come back yet, what time is it?"
"Who said no, I told me so early today, I thought I was coming back early in the morning, and I waited for him for so long." She took a radish and peeled it. Because Yan Zhenli was unfamiliar, her movements were compared with Aunt Zhou. Much clumsy.
Aunt Zhou was choosing dishes, as if she was remembering something, and asked Yan Zhenli, "Didn't you say that the young master is going to give you a surprise, Madam can ask what the surprise is."
"No." Shaking her head, Yan Zhenli never imagined that her precious son would bring Gu Chengcheng back.
When Mu Nanfeng's car drove into the Mu family's old house, it was already eleven o'clock. Yan Zhenli hurried out when she heard the movement, and then she saw her son who hadn't been home for several days, no... Not only her son, but also her daughter-in-law!
Overjoyed!
Gu Chengcheng... It's actually Gu Chengcheng, Yan Zhenli never imagined that this kid Mu Nanfeng could bring her daughter-in-law back.
So happy that Yan Zhenli forgot that they had already divorced and were no longer a daughter-in-law.
With her eyes no longer able to see Mu Nanfeng, who had been waiting so hard, Yan Zhenli hurried towards Gu Chengcheng, her voice soft and trying her best to endure the happiness, "You're here."
Gu Chengcheng was also reserved, smiled embarrassedly and nodded: "Yes."
Here I am, in a brand new identity that I never imagined before.
Auntie, what happened in the past is my fault, and now I am in love with Mu Nanfeng, can you give me another chance
Maybe, maybe it's really like what Mu Nanfeng said, the reason why there are so many twists and turns between us is just for this relationship.
"Come in, it's too cold outside, be careful not to freeze." Yan Zhenli treated Gu Chengcheng like a day for decades.
Gu Chengcheng accepted the burden in the past, and now it is even more burdensome, especially after she deeply hurt the Mu family and Jing Yi: "Well." It was this low voice again.
This was indeed a surprise, and even more unexpected. Yan Zhenli walked side by side with her, occasionally turning her head to look at her, thinking that she was wearing too thin.
"You're still young, so you should wear more clothes if you're not afraid of the cold, so that you won't suffer in the future."
The elders' words are naturally for your own good. Gu Chengcheng didn't understand it, so he answered and said, "Auntie, I know, I wear a lot, but there are two or three in my coat."
"That's good." Nodding, Yan Zhenli didn't ask why she came here. She was also a visitor. She could understand the situation of this little girl and Mu Nanfeng at the moment.
In fact, it was expected early in the morning that the two of them could have today. She was not in a hurry, but after being reprimanded and educated by Mu Haifan a few times, she also read it. There will be such a big surprise.
Also, there are lovers who should be married eventually.
The three entered the door in unison. Mu Haifan was stunned for a moment. After a while, he understood the "surprise" that Mu Nanfeng had mentioned earlier in the morning, but it was Mu Haifeng. His gaze stayed on Gu Chengcheng's face for a moment. Kind of complicated.
Yan Zhenli and Mu Haifan were only happy in secret, and didn't notice Mu Haifeng's abnormality at all. Mu Nanfeng's whole mind was on Gu Chengcheng, and he didn't notice Mu Haifeng, so... Mu Haifeng rarely showed the difference. So hidden from the public eye.
After listening to the elders, Gu Chengcheng took out the prepared gift, Yan Zhenli naturally liked it, and Mu Haifan was also satisfied. Everyone sat in the living room and drank tea for a while, and Aunt Zhou said that it was time to start dinner. .
As for why Gu Chengcheng appeared today and in what capacity, Mu Nanfeng did not explain, Gu Chengcheng did not say, everyone was like a mirror in their hearts, naturally no one mentioned it.
Everything in the past is over, happy or unpleasant, that is part of life, and now, the children are happy, which is better than anything else.
What's more, it's not a bad thing to go around some circles. The road ahead is so long, and there are countless frictions. After such an unforgettable period, in retrospect, we will cherish each other more.
Cherish the happiness in front of you, how hard it is to come.
"Chengcheng." When she got up, Yan Zhenli deliberately slowed down two steps. Gu Chengcheng sat next to her, naturally with her.
When the people in front had all walked away, Yan Zhenli said a sincere sentence: "Nanfeng still has a lot of problems. In the past, you were wronged. Now that you are willing to continue to be wronged, Auntie can't say how happy she is."
It was said that it was in the past, so what else should I mention, not to mention the current Mu Nanfeng, Gu Chengcheng doesn't know if this is considered a lover in the eyes of Xi Shi, she always thinks that he is very cute in many places.
"Don't say that, Auntie, Nan Feng... he's very good." After all, he was still embarrassed, and Gu Chengcheng lowered his head after speaking.
At that time, although during the day, the lights of Mu's house were also on, reflecting the gentle smile on Gu Chengcheng's lips, Yan Zhenli thought of a sentence unexpectedly: the most beautiful smile, with all kinds of amorous feelings around her brows.
