Qiangwei's "protest" against Yang Chen's acquisition of the new nickname did not yield much. As he drove to the restaurant along the way, Yang Chen seemed to be addicted to calling "Bun Ben".
In the end, Qiangwei blushed and said angrily: "This name is like'Puppy'. If you call it that way, I will be really angry!"
Yang Chen suddenly realized that "Stupid" did not resemble a person's name, so he smiled slowly and vowed not to call Qiangwei like that again.
Qiangwei didn’t care much about what he ate, so he didn’t have any opinions. Yang Chen simply chose a farmer’s restaurant that looked relatively clean. The two of them ordered four dishes and one soup at will, and they said while sitting by the window. Ate with a smile.
Yang Chen didn't mention anything about the Blue Dragon Club until this time. Because of the relationship between Gao and Yue, Yang Chen hoped that Qiangwei would no longer cooperate with his brother-in-law Liu Qingshan, and even hoped that Qiangwei would not give Qinglong Society too much freedom in Zhonghai.
Qiangwei was a little surprised when she heard that Gao Yue had persecuted a female college student and sold her as a young lady. Then she twisted her eyebrows together, as if thinking about something.
Yang Chen said: "You will definitely not feel comfortable after hearing this, so I didn't say it during the day just now. It's not pleasant to save your mind. Now I tell you, the decision is still in your hands. No matter what you do, I will support it."
Qiangwei smiled and said: "What my dear husband wants me to do, of course I will do what my husband wants. Didn't you say that you are not polite with my things? The Red Jing will be mine, which means it is yours. , You don’t want me to cooperate with Qinglong Club, of course I accept it. And I’m also a woman. I hate men who force women to betray their self-esteem. That Gao Yue deserves to go to jail.”
The matter was so settled, Yang Chen wouldn't say much, there was no need to bother about these things between the two.
Then, Yang Chen brought up the matter that his mother-in-law Ma Guifang lived in Qiangwei's house, and asked Qiangwei if she felt uncomfortable, after all, a strange elder suddenly appeared.
However, Qiangwei shook her head altogether, "There is nothing wrong with it. Anyway, it is Qianni's mother, and she is not an outsider. Besides, Aunt Ma will take care of me after she comes. Aunt Ma will make a lot of delicious food for us. He eats and teaches me how to cook, which is very nice."
"That's true. You and Qianni live in such a big house. It's not very good to be empty." Yang Chen said with a gloomy expression. "It hurts me. I want to go to your place to lie down most of the night. Lie down, you have to be afraid of being discovered."
Qiangwei giggled and said, "So you didn't confess the relationship with Qianni to Aunt Ma? I thought Aunt Ma had already accepted it!"
Yang Chen smiled bitterly, "I'm about to confess, my mother has promised to meet with the mother-in-law, and she will have to say it when the time comes. But I am worried, after all, my mother-in-law looks very kind, but it doesn't feel like a fuel-efficient lamp. I guess it will take some time, but I think there is always a way to overcome it."
Qiangwei bulged and said, "Huh, who asked you to recruit peach blossoms like this. When I first returned to China, how hard I tried to approach you, you still pretended to be. I didn't expect that once I opened my arms, I would hold so many arms. I feel like I've missed it. I knew that when your woman is so stressed, it's better to be quiet."
"Tsk, baby Qiangwei, what you said is wrong." Yang Chen said with a smile: "Look at her, Qianni, she's still working hard under pressure, and no one cares about you. Be free and don't be afraid. The elders interfere, and you are much happier than her."
When Qiangwei heard this, her eyes dimmed for a while, "Yes, I have no elders, and no one cares who I am with..."
Yang Chen was taken aback and scolded himself as a "idiot". He didn't mention which pot he opened. Qiangwei personally sent out his father Situ Mingze abroad, staying alone in China, and he even mentioned that she has no relatives. Things, I am "stupid"! Can this kind of thing be viewed happily?
"Although Lin Ruoxi has no grandma and mother, there is a mother who loves her at home, Qianni, and aunt Ma, my husband, you were an orphan before, and now you have found your biological mother... It seems that there is really only me. I am left alone," Qiangwei murmured sadly.
Yang Chen stretched out a hand and shook it in front of Qiangwei's eyes to attract Qiangwei's attention, and then softly said: "I was wrong, I shouldn't say that kind of thing. Sweetie Qiangwei, although no elders will take care of you, but A man loves you."
Qiang Wei said: "I'm not that delicate, don't treat me like a little girl and eat."
Yang Chen was better off now, seeing that the food was almost cold, so he gulped.
After the two of them had eaten, they paid the bill and walked out of the restaurant. The pedestrian street outside was already full of neon lights, and the sky was lightened a little white, with no stars in sight, only a crescent moon hanging in the sky.
"Let's walk on the street, it's still early anyway," Yang Chen suggested, saying that when he is free, he wants to accompany Qiangwei more.
Qiangwei immediately nodded and agreed, and she also cherished the time spent hanging out with Yang Chen alone.
The two held hands, just like the most ordinary couple, walking along the spacious street, occasionally walking into some shops selling small groceries, and occasionally entering some fashion brand specialty stores.
When he reached an intersection with the snack street, Yang Chen paused and looked at a charcoal grilled snack stall on that street corner...
The energetic Rose looked like Yang Chen, and followed it carefully. When she saw the person Yang Chen was paying attention to, she was now a middle-aged man selling charcoal-grilled snacks.
"Husband, who is that person? Is it your friend?" Qiangwei asked.
Yang Chen nodded, "That's right. Remember when I used to sell lamb skewers, I went to your wine and often talked about Lao Li's family, that person is Lao Li."
"It turned out to be him," Qiang Wei realized, "It's Li Jingjing's father, why did he come here to set up a stall? It's quite far from his house."
Yang Chan shook his head. This was what he was puzzled by. Moreover, Lao Li was busy grilling various snack skewers, sweating and embarrassed. Obviously, he has not been doing very well recently.
It stands to reason that Li Jingjing went to the United States to go abroad at public expense. The old couple and Li should not be as tired as they used to be when they were studying for their daughters.
Yang Chen motioned his gaze, took the Qiangwei forward, and came to Lao Li's small stall, looking at the old man who was busy with his head intricately.
Old Li just grilled a few strings of tentacles and sprinkled them with spices. He raised his head and habitually shouted: "What does this gentleman want?"
But when he raised his head, Lao Li was surprised to find that Yang Chen, who hadn't seen him for a long time, stood in front of him. At this time, Lao Li was also a little dumbfounded.
If it was before, Yang Chen and him could be described as a long-lost friendship, but since the incident with his daughter Li Jingjing, Lao Li knew that it would be difficult to restore the intimacy of the past between each other.
"Yang Chen, why are you here? It's been a long time since I saw you", Lao Li smiled awkwardly, glanced at the Qiang Wei beside Yang Chen subconsciously, smiled and nodded, saying hello.
Yang Chen was quite emotional. The men who used to brag and brag outside the vegetable market now have an unspeakable sense of strangeness. The reason is that the relationship between men and women has no results at all, which is really ironic.
"Lao Li, how come here to set up a stall? It's a bit far from your home," Yang Chen asked with concern.
As Lao Li continued to barbecue, he smiled bitterly and said, "Now that the competition is high, there are fewer customers over there. I heard that business is good here, so I ran here. And it doesn't take much effort to walk a few more streets."
Yang Chen was no longer selling mutton skewers, so he didn't know much about the hawker market. He nodded and then hesitated to ask: "Recently... Has Jingjing contacted her home? After sending her to the United States, I haven't heard about her yet, so it should be fine?"
In the bottom of Yang Chen's heart, she still missed the girl who she regarded as her younger sister. Although she had done some silly things, how could she forget the girl who opened her heart as soon as she returned to China.
Speaking of her daughter, Lao Li proudly said, "That girl called back and said that she was used to her and spoke English well. I heard that the professors praised her and wanted her to be a teaching assistant. Maybe she could stay in the United States. maybe."
Yang Chen smiled and said: "That's good, if you really can stay there as an assistant, you and your wife won't have to be so tired in the future."
"Yeah, because that girl is still arrogant", Lao Li said gratifiedly, and then remembered something, and said: "Yes, Yang Chen, our family still owes you the one hundred thousand yuan. The money for my wife’s medical treatment. I will definitely find time to pay you back, but now we don’t have any extra money, so I’m so sorry.”
Yang Chen then remembered that Lao Li's family really owed him money. At first, it was because he gave all the money at hand to Lao Li, that he had no money to do other small businesses and had to sell mutton skewers.
But for 100,000 yuan, he didn’t really care about it, and said casually: “Don’t worry, wait until you have spare money and then pay it back, but you and your wife have to take care of your body, but don’t Jingjing be filial to you at that time. Tired."
Old Li grinned and said with a grin: "It's okay, my bones are still hard, do you want to have a few octopuses with this lady? It's rare to see it once, give a smile to the face, hehe..."
During the conversation, the two seemed to be looking for the intimacy they had originally had. Yang Chen was not polite, and he reached out and planned to pick up the octopus tentacles from Lao Li.
But at this moment, Lao Li's face turned pale with a smile, and his eyes showed a little panic. Looking at the direction behind Yang Chen, the octopus skewers in his hand also fell.
