"Young lady, it's the rush hour right now. There are already a lot of traffic. There was a rear-end car accident on the elevated highway we were going to get on. The traffic was paralyzed for more than half an hour. It's just a little smoother now. There's nothing we can do."
Qingkong nodded, there really was nothing we could do, there was a car accident.
It was already 7:30 when we arrived at the gate of Nalan's house.
There was a servant waiting anxiously at the door. Looking around, he seemed to be waiting for Xia Qingkong.
Seeing Xia Qingkong coming, her face immediately showed an expression of surprise, and she ran over and said, "Miss, why did you come so late? The old man and the others have been waiting for you for a long time."
"There was a car accident on the way here, so we're a little late."
"Miss, please go in quickly and let me park the car."
Steamed Bun got out of the car, gave the key to the man and went in with Qingkong. As soon as he entered the hall, Xia Qingkong heard someone complaining, "Grandpa, why don't we start eating first? Xia Qingkong, too It’s so ignorant, it’s my first time to go back to my parents’ house for dinner, I’m so late, I don’t even take you seriously!”
Qingkong was very familiar with this voice. It was Nalan Churou!
"No, Qingkong must have encountered something. Just wait!" The old man's voice came slowly.
"This food is already cold. You are old and it is not good for you to eat cold food. Why don't you use your chopsticks first? Qingkong is one of your own, so you shouldn't mind."
"Even Xia Qingkong is too ungrateful!"
After going back and forth, Xia Qingkong was a little embarrassed to go in. This time she was indeed late. She made her grandfather wait for so long. She promised to arrive before 6:30, but it was already 7:30 before she arrived. .
When Xia Qingkong came in, he could only see that the old man was very happy, but everyone else looked like Qingkong owed them millions.
"Grandpa, I'm sorry, I'm late." Qingkong said apologetically.
"It's okay, it's okay. Just come and sit down. I'll have someone heat up the food." How could the old man be angry when he saw the clear sky
Seeing the old man's attitude, Nalan Churou's face turned the color of pig liver. The old man has always been so partial.
It's really too much. The old man has always been a person with a very good sense of time. He hates others being late, and he hates his grandchildren being late even more. Once, Nalan Churou came five minutes late when eating. They were all scolded by the old man, but this time Xia Qingkong was already an hour late, and the old man didn't even say a word, and said it was fine, it would be fine if someone came.
"There was a car accident on the road just now, a chain accident. The viaduct was blocked for more than half an hour." Although the old man did not ask Qingkong what happened, Qingkong felt that he still needed to explain. It was indeed not good to be late. Qingkong himself was a person with a strong sense of time. What happened today was indeed unexpected.
Mantou and Xu Fei went to the door to wait. After all, this was a family dinner for Nalan's family, so they didn't want to join the table. Delicious meals were prepared for them, so they wouldn't go hungry.
"Won't you come out earlier? Even if you are half an hour late, you obviously don't take it seriously!" Nalan Churou muttered there.
She didn't dare to say anything loudly, because she knew that the old man was very partial to Xia Qingkong. Even if she said it, the old man wouldn't blame Qingkong, and it would only cause trouble.
But Qingkong heard it with the tip of his ears, so he said: "Well, it's my fault this time, I'm late anyway, why don't I apologize to everyone with tea instead of wine, I'm a little embarrassed for waiting for so long. "
After saying that, Xia Qingkong picked up the tea cup, then poured some tea into the cup, walked to Nalan Chu Rou's side and said to Nalan Chu Rou, "I'm sorry for keeping you waiting for so long."
Nalan Churou just snorted coldly when she heard Xia Qingkong's words, turned her head to the side, and pretended not to see Xia Qingkong coming.
"Chu Rou."
Seeing her attitude, the old man couldn't stand it any longer, and shouted with a serious face.
Seeing that the old man was a little angry, Nalan Lei had no choice but to speak, "Chu Rou, since Qingkong encountered a series of car accidents on the road, it was an accident. Let's just forget about it. Besides, it's not the right time to be angry. to make you angry."
"dad."
"Stop making trouble." Nalan Lei glanced at Nalan Chu Rou.
This look also told her not to dwell on this matter anymore, because it was pointless, Xia Qingkong was late, and the old man didn't say much.
As a junior, it was a bit excessive for her to be so angry.
At least the scene was a bit over the top.
And even the old man didn’t say much! The old man has such a sense of time, but Nalan Churou is questioning Xia Qingkong here, which is really inappropriate and will definitely arouse the old man's resentment.
There is nothing to get entangled in such trivial matters. If you want to deal with Xia Qingkong, you must focus on her other matters instead of getting entangled in such trivial matters.
His daughter was just too brainless and too impulsive. Thinking of this, Nalan Lei sighed helplessly.
The servants reheated the food, and the incident was over.
After drinking for three rounds, the old man began to praise Xia Qingkong.
As a wedding gift to Qingkong, the old man specially gave it to Xia Qingkong, two branches of the Nalan family. Now these two branches are doing very well and are about to go public.
The old man praised Xia Qingkong, and others naturally did not dare to say anything more. But whether they thought Xia Qingkong was so powerful behind his back was another matter. Qingkong did not dare to take credit, because these two branches gave After Qingkong, Qingkong will all be handed over to Mu Chenhao. She doesn't know how to manage the company herself, so it is better to hand it over to Mu Chenhao.
Unexpectedly, Mu Chenhao was managing the company so well now, which made Xia Qingkong feel a little ashamed.
"I think she didn't manage these two branches by herself. Master Mu must be helping behind the scenes. Otherwise, with her level, how could she manage the company so well?"
Qingkong was about to say something when she heard the old man say, "So what? I have Master Mu helping me behind the scenes. Do you have it? If you have the ability, find a husband like Master Mu and I will give you two families." The subsidiary will let you take care of it.”
It's not easy to find someone like Mu Chenhao. I'm afraid it will be difficult to find another person in this world, right? Old man, isn’t this forcing others to do something difficult
