After the engagement, the relationship between Mu Tangchuan and Zhuang Shurong took a leap forward.
The relationship between the two became more tacit and harmonious.
In the blink of an eye, it was approaching the end of the year again, and everyone was very busy during this time. Xie Jiajia's stomach had also started to grow in the past few months. Su Zhengxun even thought of the name of the child. If it was a girl, it would be Su Yu, and if it was a boy It's called Su Chen.
At that time, there were still some traditional ideas in the family, so of course, the people of the Su family hoped that this child would be a boy, but it was not so unenlightened, so they would not reject girls.
Xie Jiajia has been free for a while, and she has become more and more familiar with Zhuang Shurong. If there is nothing to do, she will go directly to Zhuang Shurong's side, and chat with Zhuang Shurong very happily. Most of the things she talks about are about her, Su Zhengxun, Mu Tangchuan, and the others. Someone said that her childhood dream was to become a policewoman, and she made a lot of jokes because of this incident.
Zhuang Shurong liked Xie Jiajia's straightforward and careless appearance, and she didn't feel depressed or abrupt when chatting.
At noon, just as Zhuang Shurong sent Xie Jiajia away, Mu Tangchuan also walked in with a bouquet of flowers in his hand.
"So fast? I wanted Jiajia to have dinner with you just now, but she rushed back when she heard you were coming."
Zhuang Shurong glanced at him, and took the flowers he handed over.
Mu Tangchuan gave her a sideways look, but rather casually took the cup in front of her table, drank the water in the cup, "She is also a very sensible person."
"What?"
"I said she is very smart, clean up and go out to eat."
"good."
Zhuang Shurong arranged the bouquet in a vase beside her, sprinkled some water on it, and she was satisfied, "Today's flowers are pretty good."
"Before I told the boss to keep the best ones, doesn't it look very energetic?"
Mu Tangchuan gave a rare explanation.
"Are you addicted to giving gifts? Every day, the delivery changes in different ways."
"Didn't you say you liked me sending you flowers?"
Mu Tangchuan asked, taking it for granted.
Zhuang Shurong smiled happily, picked up the handbag, and the two left the office.
The place they agreed to have dinner was near Zhuang Shurong's office, and it took about ten minutes to walk without driving.
"By the way, is your expatriate list down?"
It will be the New Year soon, but Mu Tangchuan remembered this matter.
"Well, it's down, without me. This time it's really thanks to you, otherwise, maybe my name will be on it."
Zhuang Shurong's eyes were full of gratitude at this moment, "Thank you, Tang Chuan."
"Thinking about our relationship, do you think it is necessary for us to be so polite? We have been engaged for a long time, and now it will be the end of the year, and then it will be a new year. They are all counting on our marriage Arranged in the next year."
Mu Tangchuan poured lemonade for Zhuang Shurong while talking.
"If this is the case, then let's arrange the date later. I will have an exam next year and I need to prepare for it for a few months. If I have to get married next year, then let's do it on eleventh, okay?"
Zhuang Shurong thought about it seriously and replied.
"You have the final say on this matter. I don't have any opinions. I just listen to you."
Mu Tangchuan replied.
Zhuang Shurong nodded, "Then you tell them?"
"It's your opinion, why don't you say it yourself?"
Mu Tangchuan raised his handsome eyebrows, but looked at her meaningfully.
"Let's leave this kind of thing to you, otherwise what do I want you to do?"
Zhuang Shurong said it confidently, Mu Tangchuan lowered his eyes and smiled, feeling a little helpless, "I always feel that you, Miss Zhuang, are a little bit suspicious of climbing up the ladder."
"You're right to think so, that's who I am."
Zhuang Shurong said without any concealment, "Anyway, there are people who give the pole."
The corner of Mu Tangchuan's mouth widened slightly, and suddenly he reached out and pulled the napkin aside, and passed it to Zhuang Shurong's mouth. Zhuang Shurong was stunned for a moment, and before he had time to react, he had already put the napkin with some sauce on it. into her hand.
Zhuang Shurong looked at it, but was actually a little embarrassed, "I..."
"The weekend is my mentor's 70th birthday. He is going to hold a party at his home. I want you to go with me, okay?"
Before Zhuang Shurong's words fell, Mu Tangchuan's voice had already been heard. Zhuang Shurong paused again, and looked at him with some doubts, "Your teacher?"
"Well, he can be regarded as the nobleman of me and Zhengxun. The reason why we got involved in the political arena at the beginning was largely due to his influence. Every time we had a hurdle that we couldn't overcome, we would talk to him and it would suddenly become clear that he is A wise man, you won’t suffer from knowing him, and, I think, I should take you to meet him.”
Mu Tangchuan seemed to have made some decision at the moment, his tone was full of firmness, Zhuang Shurong couldn't bear to refuse that way, after thinking about it, he nodded, "Then...then I'll walk with you for a while Be it."
After getting the answer he was satisfied with, Mu Tangchuan smiled in satisfaction, and suddenly stretched out his hand over to pour water for her.
…
In fact, Zhuang Shurong was also a little puzzled, what kind of person could make such a noble Mu Tangchuan be regarded as a mentor, and he still respected him so much, and even prepared gifts that were ingenious.
Zhuang Shurong soon met the mentor that Mu Tangchuan was talking about—
It was a very kind old man, who was the class teacher of Mu Tangchuan High School for three years. Although the old man was very skinny, he was in good spirits, and he looked at Zhuang Shurong very kindly.
"You... you are wheat, right?"
The old man patted Zhuang Shurong's hand affectionately, smiling broadly.
"wheat?"
Zhuang Shurong was stunned for a moment, she didn't understand who the old man was talking about, but she already realized that the old man seemed to have misunderstood the person, she was not Maizi, she was Zhuang Shurong.
"Aren't you Maizi? I heard from Zhengxun before that you and Tang Chuan have been together for many years. Do you plan to get married when? This boy Tang Chuan hides deeply, and this is the first time he brought his girlfriend to see me …”
The old man was talking on his own, but Zhuang Shurong's brows were slightly frowned.
It seems that the wheat in the old man's mouth should be Mu Tangchuan's ex-girlfriend
"I'm sorry, Teacher Feng, I'm not Maizi, I'm Zhuang Shurong, is Maizi Tang Chuan's ex-girlfriend?"
Zhuang Shurong finally lowered her voice and asked.
"Are you not wheat?"
The old man was obviously also surprised. Before Mu Tangchuan got engaged, he was still out of town and didn't come back in time. Naturally, he didn't know about Zhuang Shurong's existence.
