"Brother Xu, please don't say that. This is troublesome."
"Haha. Okay, hurry up and wash up and come over for breakfast. The breakfast your mom made tastes really good."
"Yeah, I've always thought my mom's cooking was delicious. If she opened a restaurant, she would definitely make a lot of money."
Right at this moment.
The door of the house suddenly rang.
Then a voice sounded from outside the door.
"Why can't I open the door! Damn, who locked the door?"
It was a man's voice.
Xu Xiuwen didn't react at first.
Qiao Gang was shocked.
After the surprise.
Qiao Gang was very nervous, as if a flood or a monster was coming.
Of course, what's outside the door is not a monster.
He could already tell that it was his father outside the door.
The reason why the door cannot be opened.
Because he locked the door from the inside.
The reason he did this was because he was worried that his father would suddenly come back last night.
What if he saw another man in the room
That would be bad.
Although my father can't come in for the time being, he will come in sooner or later.
Xu Xiuwen finally noticed that there was something wrong with Qiao Gang's expression.
He is not slow to react.
I immediately guessed that the person outside the door should be Mu Zhilan's husband.
He remembered what Mu Zhilan had said to him in the kitchen last night.
Mu Zhilan said that her husband was narrow-minded and couldn't stand her talking to other men.
You can't even speak.
If he saw his wife inviting another man home and spending the night with him.
Xu Xiuwen could almost imagine the face of an angry man.
He couldn't help swallowing.
You didn't provoke the fox, so why did you get into trouble
He felt so wronged.
Mu Zhilan also heard the sound and came out of the kitchen.
Fear and worry were written on Mu Zhilan's face.
Qiao Gang knew that he couldn't let his father see Brother Xu in his house.
He hurriedly whispered, "Brother Xu, go hide in my room first. Come out when I call you. Don't let my dad find you."
"Okay." Xu Xiuwen nodded immediately, then stood up and walked towards Qiao Gang's room.
After he entered the room.
Qiao just said to his mother: "Mom, don't let it slip. Go open the door."
Mu Zhilan went to open the door tremblingly.
After the door opened.
Father Qiao appeared outside the door.
He pushed Mu Zhilan away and cursed, "Why are you locking the door in broad daylight? What the hell are you doing?"
"I..." Mu Zhilan saw her husband's fierce face and didn't know how to explain.
Fortunately, Qiao Gang helped her out.
Qiao Gang said, "Dad, I locked the door. You won't be home at night, so it's just me and mom at home. It's more peaceful to sleep with the door locked."
"You're not hiding someone at home without telling me, are you afraid that I'll see you when I come back?"
The mother and son fell silent at the same time.
Fortunately, Mr. Qiao just said it casually and didn't really mean it.
In his opinion.
This woman Mu Zhilan might deceive herself.
But it was impossible for her own son to help her deceive herself.
Father Qiao sat down at the table and said, "I'm hungry. Hurry up and serve the porridge."
"Oh, okay." Mu Zhilan immediately turned around and went to the kitchen to get some porridge.
Xu Xiuwen came to Qiao Gang's room and kept an eye on the movements outside.
No sound of quarreling was heard.
He breathed a sigh of relief.
Then he smiled silently.
This situation is ridiculous.
He just came to have a meal and accept others' thanks.
It's like you're having an extramarital affair and you have to hide when you see her husband.
As the saying goes: Don't put your shoes in a melon field and don't straighten your hat under a plum tree.
Xu Xiuwen thought to himself that in order to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings, he would never come to Mu Zhilan's house again.
I waited for more than ten minutes.
Joe just opened the door.
"Brother Xu, I'm sorry to ask you to hide."
"It's okay. Is your dad gone?"
"He's gone. He got the money and left. You can leave now."
"good."
Worried that Mr. Qiao would suddenly return and catch them red-handed.
Xu Xiuwen did not dare to stay and quickly left Mu Zhilan's house.
Came to his BMW.
Xu Xiuwen finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Then he got in his car and drove away quickly.
Because today is Saturday.
Xu Xiuwen doesn't have to pick up Lu Xinyao for work.
Otherwise.
He went to see her still wearing yesterday's clothes.
Lu Xinyao must have known that he didn't go home last night.
It is easy to cause unnecessary suspicion and misunderstanding.
But in the afternoon.
Xu Xiuwen still came to the company.
"Hello, is this Sister Yan?"
Xu Xiuwen sat in the office and said as he looked at the information he had just obtained from the investigation.
Ji Yan on the other end of the phone was very happy when she received Xu Xiuwen's call.
"Xiu Wen, it's me. You haven't contacted me for a few days, and I thought you had forgotten me."
This time, Xu Xiuwen didn't beat around the bush with her.
He got straight to the point and asked, "Sister Yan, let me make it short. I would like to invite you to come to Guangming Winery. I wonder if you are interested."
Ji Yan was stunned.
I never expected Xu Xiuwen to suddenly bring up this kind of thing.
"Xiu Wen, I don't quite understand what you mean. Do you want me to switch to your winery?"
