My family turned out to be the richest man

Chapter 45 Eating is a Difficult Job

"Hey?"

Rong Yue yelled into the phone nervously.

"Where have you been? The food is getting cold." Xi Zhengxuan's voice was still gentle, but there was a little tension and doubt in the gentleness.

He originally planned to wait for Rong Yue to come back to have dinner together, but he waited and waited until she was nowhere to be seen, and he still didn't answer the phone, so he felt anxious right away.

"You eat first, don't worry about me."

Rong Yue covered her mouth with her hand, lowered her voice and secretly looked at her mother.

Li Peilan, who was washing pots and dishes in the kitchen, just turned her head.

"Yueyue, although you don't cook, there are quite a lot of things in the refrigerator, and why are they so fresh?"

Rong Yue was shocked, and hurried back to the bedroom before she could answer.

He even squeezed his phone tightly!
Just in case Xi Zhengxuan heard it!
But he still seemed to hear some voices on the opposite side.

"Is there anyone there?" Xi Zhengxuan frowned, although he couldn't hear clearly, but...

"No, no, no!" Rong Yue was devastated.

"Where are you, I'll go find you." Xi Zhengxuan asked again.

Rong Yue listened faintly, as if he was getting up.

Perhaps his leg accidentally hit the coffee table, causing Xi Zhengxuan to groan in pain.

"Wait a minute! Don't move!" Rong Yue rubbed his temples with a headache for fear that he would hit him again, and made a "stop" gesture in mid-air, "I'll go back right away, go back right away! Don't mess around !"

Without giving Xi Zhengxuan time to react, she immediately cut off the phone, then ran out and shouted to Li Peilan, "Mom, I'll go out and be back soon."

Li Peilan, who hadn't cooked for a long time, nodded and agreed: "Don't be too late, mom's cooking skills, rice—"

"boom!"

The door slammed shut.

Li Peilan glared at the empty living room complainingly: "It's reckless."

Rong Yue pressed the elevator but couldn't wait for a long time, so she went to climb the stairs. When she knocked on the door of her house on the 20th floor, Xi Zhengxuan's voice rang above her head.

"What are you doing, you look mysterious."

"That...an old classmate whom I haven't contacted for a long time called, so I went down to answer it."

Rong Yue lied while panting heavily, her eyeballs rolling around.

Xi Zhengxuan just asked casually, mainly worried that Rong Yue would be hungry if he didn't eat at such a late hour, so he greeted her and handed the bowl and chopsticks to her.

Rong Yue smiled dryly, poured a glass of boiled water, and sat at the dining table, chewing white rice absently.

Xi Zhengxuan saw that she was not moving the food, so he put it in the Rongyue bowl, chatting with her casually.

Rong Yue responded indiscriminately, either "um" or "oh", and it was obvious that she was not listening carefully.

This "perfunctory" attitude made the good-tempered Xi Zhengxuan slightly annoyed.

He stopped talking.

Rong Yue bit her chopsticks, and it took a long time before she noticed that Xi Zhengxuan's expression was a bit ugly.

She closed her eyes in annoyance, and was about to smile to please him, but the damn cell phone rang again!

Take a look at the notes...

It's over, it's mom.

"Why didn't you answer it?" Xi Zhengxuan squinted at her carefully taking out the phone from her pocket, as if she was a thief, with a very complicated expression.

Rong Yue covered the note, smiled stiffly: "Go."

Then she took it.

"Yueyue, didn't you say you'll be back soon? Where did you go, go home for dinner."

Although Li Peilan is a wealthy wife, she still learned how to cook well when she lived in a rental house with her husband and daughter.The three dishes and one soup are very simple for her, and it will be done in a while.

Rong Yue, with one head and two big ones, replied "Okay, I see", put down his chopsticks, stood up and walked out.

She even pretended to chat with her old classmates after the call ended, saying "Long time no see".

Then he turned his head and said to Xi Zhengxuan who was looking at him as if nothing had happened: "I'll go down and answer the phone."

After finishing speaking, Rong Yue slipped away and ran away again!

Xi Zhengxuan choked in his throat with the words "Why don't you pick it up in the bedroom", and couldn't get up or down.

Do you have to go down and pick it up?

It was as if he was worried that he was eavesdropping.

Xi Zhengxuan laughed angrily, put his chopsticks on the table, and lost his appetite for dinner.

This girl is starting to be wary of herself?

What kind of old classmates, he was rather curious, for Rong Yue to value him so much.

Xi Zhengxuan pondered alone.

And Rong Yue, who was out of breath and ran downstairs, was so tired that she wiped her sweat with her hips on her hips in the aisle.

Finally regaining her strength, she patted her chest, took a deep breath, and walked into the room on the 19th floor.

As soon as the door opened, the smell of food from the restaurant wafted over.

"Yueyue, look at what mom made, they were all your favorite food in the past, and the craftsmanship hasn't changed at all."

Li Peilan pulled Rong Yue to sit down at the table as if taking credit, and then pushed a big bowl full of rice in front of her.

"It's very late, you must be starving, eat more, there is still enough in the pot."

She came after having a meal at home, so this table of big dishes was all prepared for her daughter.

Rong Yue looked at the fish and the meat, and felt that the nausea from the strenuous exercise just now was getting stronger and stronger.

She had tried her best to spit it out in front of her mother.

And just now I ate half a bowl of rice upstairs, now... I really have no appetite at all.

There was no other way, Rong Yue bit the bullet and grabbed the vegetables with the chopsticks.

Li Peilan quickly picked up a large piece of braised pork with another pair of chopsticks and put it in her bowl!
The fat and lean pork wrapped in thick red sauce has a bright and greasy surface.

Rong Yue desperately suppressed the torrent of water in her stomach, grabbed the cup and drank water.

Mom kept looking forward to Rong Yue, wanting to see herself take a bite of the dishes she carefully prepared.

For the first time, I felt that eating is a difficult job.

Rong Yue didn't have a big appetite, but for her mother's sake, she stuffed half a bowl of rice, two bowls of soup, three pieces of braised pork, half a fish and some vegetables.

This is already the limit of her usual appetite!
After finally ending this tormenting dinner, Rong Yue slumped on the chair, unable to move.

What a coincidence——

The deadly cell phone rings again!

When Rong Yue heard this voice now, her hair stood on end in an instant!

Without even thinking about it, I knew it was Xi Zhengxuan.

She wanted to cry, but got up from the seat holding her belly, shouting "immediately", but her steps were very slow.

I was too full to walk.

On the 20th floor, Xi Zhengxuan pointed to the leftover half bowl of rice on the table, and urged earnestly: "I ate too little just now, it's not good for the stomach, finish it."

On the 19th floor, Li Peilan mopped the floor, reminding with concern: "It's about half an hour after the meal, you can take a bath, go to bed early after washing, and don't stay up late."

Rong Yue really wanted to blurt out——

"Am I eating too little? Added up, I have eaten the previous day's amount!"

"Digestion? It doesn't exist, mom, I only digested it for half a minute!"

But she ran back and forth upstairs and downstairs without daring to say a word.

Rong Yue took a shower and changed clothes on the 19th floor, took Li Peilan to the gate of the community, watched the driver drive away with her own eyes, and hurried back to the 19th floor to change back to the original clothes, and then dragged her limp legs , fell on the sofa in the room on the 20th floor.

Xi Zhengxuan asked sourly: "Did you finish the phone call with your old classmate?"

With a bloated stomach and tiredness, Rong Yue said "hmm" without thinking about it.

As a result, Xi Zhengxuan, who was sitting next to him, suddenly let out a cold snort for no reason.

Humming is quite obvious.

It is the kind of emotion that expresses strong dissatisfaction by blowing air out of the nose.

Rong Yue heard it, so she turned her head in a daze.

Xi Zhengxuan got up on crutches.

She could only force herself to sit up, trying to help him.

Unexpectedly, Xi Zhengxuan turned his head, stopped looking at Rong Yue, and limped back to the bedroom in a brave manner.

Before closing the door, he gave her a vicious look.

Rong Yue scratched her head.

Why are you suddenly angry with yourself?

She was the one who was wronged that night, yet Xi Zhengxuan lost his temper?
Rong Yue pursed her lips, and went to sleep in anger.

Xi Zhengxuan, who was lying on the bed, tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.

Are you jealous?

He had never been in a relationship before, and he couldn't grasp the reason for his mood changes for a while, but he just felt uncomfortable.

Maybe so.

It seems that the feelings towards Rong Yue are becoming more and more different.

But he was not good at words, and he never knew how to express it.

Xi Zhengxuan sat up with support, staring at the lights of Wanjia in the darkness outside the window in a daze.

The next day.

Early in the morning, Rong Yue went out.

Xi Zhengxuan saw that she had left breakfast and a note on the table, stating that she was going home. He reckoned that she would be back on Sunday night if it was early, and Monday if it was late.

It happened that the phone received the notification.

He opened it and saw that it was Rong Yue's message reminding him to remember to eat.

Xi Zhengxuan smiled slightly, and the trace of unhappiness last night disappeared.

That's okay, Rong Yue is not at home, and no one stopped him from going to the club.

Although this leg is still a bit inconvenient, it can walk around anyway.

When Xi Zhengxuan took a taxi to the stadium, he was half an hour behind Dong Le and the others.

"Captain? Why are you here?" Pan Qirui was the first to spot him, and he took off his helmet in shock.

The others turned their heads one after another, and they were all stunned when they saw Xi Zhengxuan.

With such injuries, is it possible that he still has to train and prepare for the trials?
The team members immediately rushed up and surrounded Xi Zhengxuan.

He sat aside, like a coach.

"Continue training, don't be lazy." Xi Zhengxuan grabbed the club and hit Dong Le's buttocks.

In the past few days, everyone's training effect has not been very good. It may be because the backbone of the team is not there, or it may be because they have lost some fighting spirit.

But as soon as Xi Zhengxuan was present, the atmosphere changed immediately.

It was as if, even though he couldn't fight side by side with them, with him by his side, he always had confidence in his heart.

Watching the players gallop on the court, Xi Zhengxuan looked down at his ankle.

In two more days, he will try to continue on the ice.

"Team Xi, why doesn't my sister-in-law come to the team recently?" During the intermission, Dong Le muttered.

"Yes, we all miss our sister-in-law." Sun Bo echoed.

"How far have you two developed now, captain?" Someone else asked gossipingly.

It caused a burst of laughter.

One mouthful and one sister-in-law, she was really more affectionate than herself.

Xi Zhengxuan shook his head and smiled helplessly.

But for some reason, he didn't explain the relationship between the two embarrassingly like Rong Yue did when he first came to the club, he just said: "She's busy."

Dong Le and the others felt a little regretful.

Xi Zhengxuan leaned against the wall and thought to himself——

development of?

Maybe... tryouts are a great opportunity.

He smiled slightly.
