Unexpectedly, Fu Xueman was very generous. She was the first to break the awkward atmosphere and smiled at Shen Bing, "Sit down and eat first, otherwise the food will get cold soon."
Only then did my mother wake up from her dream and hurriedly asked Shen Bing to sit down.
Shen Bing's face changed, turning into a bitter one, and she whispered to me, "You almost scared me to death just now. I brought you clothes in front of your fiancée, and called you a bumpkin. I hope this won't ruin your relationship?"
I was stunned. I thought she was unhappy when she heard the news because she liked me. It turned out it was because of this. I was so happy for nothing!
"It's okay, she's not a stingy person, just sit down." She dealt a heavy blow to my mood, which plummeted.
"This is a family dinner. I'm afraid it's not appropriate for an outsider like me to attend. I'd better go back." She whispered again.
When I heard this, it seemed like this girl had some hidden meaning in her words, something about a family dinner for outsiders, clearly trying to test my thoughts. I smiled at her and said, "Stop talking nonsense and take a seat."
The two of us whispered to each other, and our heads were almost connected. Could we be ordinary friends? Fu Xueman could no longer be generous, and her face darkened again.
Shen Bing nodded, smiled awkwardly and walked to the dining table and sat down. I said let's have a drink, it's not as warm as your home, drink some wine to warm yourself up.
"I'm driving, I can't drink, and I don't like drinking anyway. You should drink less. You drank so much last time and kept me awake all night..." As she spoke, she covered her mouth and fell silent.
This girl is outspoken. You should either keep silent or speak clearly. The words that have been tossed around all night will give people endless reverie. My mother opened her mouth wide and was stunned. Fu Xueman's face was as gloomy as it could be, staring straight at the table, looking very angry.
I hurriedly tried to smooth things over: "Last time, you were afraid that I would choke so you served me all night. You were so kind. Otherwise, how could we entertain you when you came to our house?"
When my mother and Fu Xueman heard this, they suddenly realized what was going on, and their faces relaxed. Fu Xueman smiled as she picked up some food for me. I pretended not to notice and picked up a dish for Shen Bing. Fu Xueman tightened her mouth again.
Seeing that the atmosphere was still quite awkward, I said to Shen Bing, "Let's have a drink. If you can't leave today, don't leave. I'm worried about you driving alone during the New Year. Stay here for a few more days and try my mom's cooking."
"Come on, I'm going to sleep with you □□? Your bed smells so bad!" She was about to ruin everything as soon as she said that, but she regretted it right after she said it. She covered her mouth again, blinked her eyes at me, and wanted to cry.
Fu Xueman suddenly raised her head, looked at Shen Bing and said, "What is your relationship?"
"We have nothing to do with each other!" Shen Bing insisted.
One asked a thorny question and the other answered an idiotic one.
My mother looked around, looking very embarrassed. Today was the first time she let her future daughter-in-law have a meal at home, and it was also New Year's Day, so how could such a thing happen
I raised my head and drank a large glass of white wine and said, "We are friends. Her name is Shen Bing, she works at the provincial police station. She came to town to handle a case a few days ago, and we got to know each other."
Fu Xueman was happy again after hearing my clear introduction. Didn't I understand what she meant? She clearly thought I couldn't climb up to Shen Bing's high branch. She smiled and kept picking food for Shen Bing. This girl is quite cunning. To curry favor with Shen Bing is to please me, isn't it
