One Can’t Judge by Appearance - Chapter 68
As he got closer to the airport, Yuan Yi’s sitting posture became more and more serious, and his straight back was almost as stiff as a stone statue. In order to relieve his nervousness, Yan Xi had to find a topic to distract him.
“Why do you think of asking someone to send me lunch at noon today?” With Yuan Yi’s style of behavior, if you really encounter delicious things, you should choose to take her to eat next time, instead of letting the driver drive so far. , Just to send her a box of lunch. He is not the kind of person who does things regardless of the influence. The behavior of people on TV stations who talk about food and flowers, looks like a show of affection in the eyes of a good relationship, and in the eyes of some other people, I am afraid it will become The smell is showing up, and it’s spreading, and it’s inevitable that some people will make irresponsible remarks.
Although Yuan Xiaoer’s mouth is awkward, but in his bones he has his own way of doing things.
“I just think you might like to eat,” Yuan Yi didn’t expect Yan Xi to think of it. “There is no reason.”
“There’s really no reason?” Yan Xi looked at Yuan Yi, and only smiled after seeing him uncomfortably, “I thought you were worried about me, and I was afraid that others thought I had lost your favor, so I specially let him People give lunch and flowers.”
“I’m not a girl, so how can I think about this?” Yuan Yi lowered his head to see Yan Xi still looking at himself, pulled a suit jacket, and said with a sullen face, “You women are really troublesome, you like to think about everything.”
Yan Xi laughed and turned to look out the window, “The airport is almost here.”
Yuan Yi saw the building of the Imperial Capital Airport from a distance, his cheeks stretched tighter.
“Lao Song, finally go back to China, wait to go out for a drink at night?” A certain boss of the inspection group patted Song Hai on the shoulder, “I have been out for a long time, and I dreamed of domestic food at night, the so-called Chinese dishes outside. , It’s not as good as what I fry at home.”
“Pharaoh, do you still cook your own food at home?” Another boss joked, “I really can’t see it, it turns out that you still hide deeply.”
“Go, go, I can cook, but it doesn’t mean I have to cook at home.”
Several men brag to each other about their status in the family, saying that a wife is afraid to talk about it. After laughing for a long time, seeing Song Hai not talking, they asked curiously, “Lao Song, let me go to relax together tonight.”
“You go, my girl is going to come and pick me up. From the children’s family, I have not seen my father for so many days. I must be reluctant to bear it.” Song Hai smiled helplessly, “I’m just such a daughter. Make her sad.”
“It’s still the filial daughter of the old Song family. If I have been abroad for less than a month, I will pick it up eagerly.” The boss surnamed Wang is envious and jealous. It’s easy to worry about.”
Soon the topic of these successful people turned to their children, and the game of complaining about children was started. Song Hai had no opinion on this, but was secretly proud that his good daughter could kill everything in seconds.
However, after he walked out of the airport and saw the man next to his daughter, this feeling of pride suddenly became a punctured balloon and disappeared without a trace.
“Dad,” Yan Xi saw Song Hai come out, stretched out his hand and waved at him, “I’m here.”
Song Hai glanced over his daughter, and Zhao Zhao stood on the young man standing beside her daughter. He knew this man. The thigh he had held not long ago was Yuan Yi, the second youngest of the Yuan family and the boss of Hengtai.
Although the daughter was standing side by side with the man without any overly affectionate behavior, Song Hai only glanced at it and noticed something was wrong.
Yuan Yi has an attempt to his daughter.
Turning around to bid farewell to the colleagues and leaders of the inspection group, everyone saw that Song Hai had not lied and his daughter had indeed come to pick him up, so everyone laughed a bit and did not force him to dinner and drink.
After a few steps, one of the bosses said, “Do you think the young people around Song’s daughter are familiar?”
“It seems to be familiar.” Mr. Wang looked back several times and squinted his eyes. “That seems to be the second child of the original family.”
“Which original home?”
“Which original home does our imperial capital have?”
Only then did several bosses react and cursed secretly in their hearts, Lao Song, the fox, unexpectedly boarded the original ship without a word. No wonder he was able to win the cooperation project with Hengtai some time ago.
“Dad,” Yan Xi took Song Hai’s arm, “I booked a banquet with Yuan Yi in the hotel, and I will pick you up.”
Song Hai smiled and looked at Yuan Yi: “Ms. Yuan is too polite, how can I make you spend money. I am a big boss, and I don’t pay attention to those scenes. It’s better to eat outside than to go home and finish the noodles.”
“That’s fine,” Yan Xi stooped to **** the suitcase in Song Hai’s hand and stuffed it into Yuan Yi’s hand. “I’ll go back and make it for you.”
“We father and daughter eat noodles, so we won’t be wronged, and Yuan will endure the hardship with us.” Song Hai wanted to grab his suitcase back, “Yuan Yuan, please come back.”
“Let him carry it.” Yan Xi grabbed Song Hai and shook his arm. “He is young and strong.”
Yuan Yi nodded: “Uncle, I don’t want to eat.”
Song Hai: Actually, I don’t care if you are not picky about eating.
When getting in the car, the three of them were sitting in the back seat of the car, Yan Xi in the middle, and Song Haiyuanyi on both sides. There was an unspeakable seriousness between the two men.
Yan Xi didn’t care about them, and took a box of yogurt in the small refrigerator to drink. The lunch dishes were a bit salty.
Seeing how well his daughter is familiar with the car, Song Hai felt as if the river had broken the embankment, and it was difficult to describe. There were countless thoughts in his mind, but looking at his daughter’s relaxed appearance, he didn’t say anything embarrassing after all.
Since childhood, Yuan Yi has never considered things to please his elders. For the first time today, he couldn’t say a word of all the things he had thought of before coming.
“Uncle,” Yuan Yi said in the quiet carriage. “Did the inspection work outside go smoothly?”
Song Hai was silent for two seconds and then replied: “It’s not bad. Certain industries have a lot of room for cooperation, but some conditions are not yet mature. Everyone is worried about the risks. I am in my early 50s and I just want to I will not try this kind of risky investment by holding on to the family business and saving Yan Yan.”
Song Hai is very aware of his abilities. He has never been an adventurous person. It is not a shame to admit that he is a conservative thinking person: “The future belongs to young people, and my vision can no longer keep up with the times. Going abroad for the second time can only be said to be a long experience.”
Yuan Yi found that Song Hai and his dad were completely opposite people. When his dad was young, he acted very wanton. Now although Changfeng is already in charge of his elder brother, his dad is still often dissatisfied with the decision made by his elder brother. Later, the eldest brother got angry, and the father and son broke out into a big conflict, and this situation improved a lot.
But the desire for control in his father’s bones is actually not much better.
“Uncle started from scratch and created such a big company. Many people couldn’t keep up with it.” Yuan Yi complimented Song Hai. “You are too modest.”
“For the next few generations, who didn’t start from scratch,” Song Hai laughed. “It’s nothing to start a business. A family that has been passed down for hundreds of years like your original family is truly remarkable. We are nouveau riche like yours. , There is no comparability at all.”
Yan Xi finished drinking a bottle of yogurt and began to unpack the chocolate to eat, as if he could not understand the conversation between the two men.
“It’s all due to my ancestors.” Yuan Yi put the empty yogurt bottle in the trash bag next to him, took out a handkerchief and handed it to Yan Xi, and continued to talk to Song Hai, “Hengtai is my own industry and manages the company by myself. I know that starting a business is not easy. But relying on oneself is more confident than relying on eating at home.”
Song Hai finally showed a smile on his face: “This is correct, you can rely on yourself to be your own master.”
Although he didn’t have much dealings with aristocratic families, he understood the pride in the rich family’s bones, so when he saw his daughter had a relationship with Yuan Yi, the first thing he thought about was whether his daughter would be wronged. The son of a fellow industry partner married an actress and went home. The actress seemed to marry a rich man, but in fact he was not seen by the man’s parents, and his life was not very good.
Although their family is also rich, it is very different from the original family. If Yuan Yi can’t be the master, even if her daughter can marry in, her life will not be too happy. But this Yuan Yi is a young man with an idea, better than those rich second generations who rely on their parents for food and drink and can’t do everything.
When the car drove into Song’s villa, Yan Xi knew how many things Yuan Yi had bought when she got off the car.
It was full of gifts in the back of the car, and people who didn’t know thought that their family was going to open a supermarket.
“I don’t know what my uncle likes, so I just bought some meeting gifts, hoping that my uncle will not dislike it.” Yuan Yi and the driver took out the gift boxes from the trunk and placed them all over the floor.
This made Song Hai couldn’t help but think of himself when he saw his father-in-law and his mother-in-law. At that time, he didn’t have much money in his pocket, but he was worried that his father-in-law was not satisfied with him, so he bought back all the things on the market that were said to please the elders.
After more than 20 years, the person who was anxious at the time has changed from him to a stinky boy who pursued his daughter.
He doesn’t care about this pile of gifts, but he rarely cares about it.
Only when a man cares about a woman will he rack his brains to please the elders of a woman. Because of love, I am afraid that the elders will not like it, and because I am afraid, I feel uneasy.
“Come here, why do you buy so many things?” Song Hai saw that there were too many things, and Yuan Yi and the driver couldn’t finish carrying them. He bent down and carried a few large boxes to the front, “Come in.”
Seeing that Yuanyi’s hands were covered with things, Yan Xi was almost unable to walk on the road. He was two steps behind secretly and wanted to help him carry it.
“No, such a thing, how can a man do it by a woman.” Yuan Yi didn’t ask Yan Xi to help him. “You are still wearing high heels, and walk well.”
Yan Xi looked at him with a faint smile. If his face was not so red and the veins did not appear, this would probably be more convincing.
But Yan Xi didn’t insist. At this time, she helped Yuan Yi too much, and her dad should be upset when she turned her head.
The four of them entered the door, Yan Xi invited the driver to stay for dinner, but the driver hurriedly left after refusing. If he stayed at this time, he probably wanted to lose his job.
“Dad, you sit with Yuan Xiaoer for a while, and I’ll cook the noodles.” Yan Xi’s cooking skills are average, but his noodle cooking skills are not bad.
“Uncle, let me help.” Yuan Yi handed the remote control to Song Hai, got up and followed Yan Xi into the kitchen.
Song Hai looked at his back and turned on the TV, but his attention drifted to the kitchen door.
“What are you doing following up?” Yan Xi said amusedly when Yuanyi came in, “You can cook?”
“No,” Yuan Yi turned his head blushing, “I’m a big man, I can’t let you do things alone. Let’s watch TV by yourself.”
Amused by his words, Yan Xi stuffed him with a handful of green onions and a few cloves of garlic: “Then you help me sort this out.”
Picking up the shallots that were still in soil, Yuan Yi saw Yan Xi lowered his head to wash the pot, sneaked out of the phone, and started searching the Internet as to what to do with the shallots and garlic used to make noodles.
Thanks to the omnipotent network, so that the second young master, who has no distinction of everything, knows how to start with these things.
“By the way, don’t the elders pay attention to the way that men can’t cook?” Yan Xi wiped off the water on his hands and started to boil the water. “You elders enter the kitchen, what kind of elders are you?”
“What kind of man is that,” Yuan Yi said in embarrassment when Yan Xi was pierced in his mind, “what time is it, of course the conditions of the man have to be updated.”
“Oh.”
“Oh what?” Yuan Yi felt that he couldn’t make it through his face.
“I just got it,” Yan Xi turned his head and smiled brightly at him, “Are you a good man in the new era.”
Yuan Yi snorted: “It’s good to know, if there is a good man like me chasing you, you should stop looking at other men.” Especially the hypocritical villain of the Song Dynasty.
Yan Xi chuckled, seeing Yuan Yi squatting awkwardly next to the trash can, peeling garlic. He was about 1.8 meters tall, curled up there, quite cute.
Before the water boiled, Yan Xi began to wash the vegetables and meat. When cutting vegetables, Yuan Yi saw that the knife in Yan Xi’s hand was shining silver, flying up and down, not even daring to get out of the atmosphere, for fear that she would cut her white and tender fingers by accident.
Her fingers are so thin and tender, will they disappear after a single stab?
Seeing Yan Xi finally finished cutting the meat and vegetables, Yuan Yi finally breathed a sigh of relief and continued to peel the garlic with his head down. He spent a lot of time with a few cloves of garlic and a few green onions, but he took care of it very cleanly, and even the small black spots on the garlic cloves were pinched off by him.
“It’s so clean.” Yan Xi took the onion and garlic and praised Yuan Yi.
Yuan Yi snorted, “What’s so difficult for such a small matter.”
Yan Xi cut the shallots that had been cut off in half, and nodded with a smile, “Yeah.”
After frying two dishes, the water boiled, and Yan Xi started down. Yuan Yi saw her movements proficiently, and seemed to have done it countless times.
After the noodles came out of the pot, Yuan Yi saw that she was going to end the noodles, and hurriedly said, “Don’t move, I’ll come.”
When he finished speaking, he had to reach out to serve the bowl. The moment he touched the bowl, his index finger was hot and flushed.
“Hey!” Yan Xi took his hand under the faucet and washed it with cold water. After seeing that his fingers were only slightly red, he breathed a sigh of relief, lowered his head and blew at his index finger, “put on heat-insulating gloves. End it again.”
Yuan Yi, who had failed in front of his girlfriend, was initially a little depressed, but seeing Yan Xi worrying about himself, he suddenly felt that it was worth it to scald twice.
Hearing the movement in the kitchen, Song Hai, who was about to come in and take a look, walked to the door and did not enter.
He wiped his face, and sat back on the sofa resignedly.
Noodles, don’t leave it for too long, it will be mushy!
