Sit at the wrong table on a blind date, get married to the heir of a billionaire family

Chapter 620 How to be “inadvertent”?

Gan Qi returned home and prepared to clean the house thoroughly.

I don’t know how many days my mother-in-law will be back. She might come to visit us tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, so I have to make the house clean and warm.

Carefully wiping the vase, Gan Qi thought that her mother-in-law was a worldly-wise woman after all. She was so smart that she would probably be able to tell that there was a problem in their marriage as soon as she walked in.

After all, she and Meng Yan had been married for several months and hadn’t even taken wedding photos… Thinking of this, Gan Qi sighed.

I was kneeling on the floor packing food from the bottom layer of the refrigerator when Meng Yan suddenly opened the door and came back.

As soon as he entered the room, he saw Gan Qi busy at work.

"?,What are you doing?"

Gan Qi wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"Mr. Meng, you're back! Did you have a smooth journey?"

Meng Yan changed his shoes at the entrance and said, "Not bad."

Gan Qi: "By the way, how many days will mom be back this time?"

Meng Yan: "What's wrong?"

"I was wondering...what should I say if she asks why we didn't take wedding photos?"

Meng Yan was stunned.

He also realized that after being married for so long, they didn't even have a photo together.

Today, he actually confessed to his mother's change, but Gan Qi didn't know it.

"It's okay, she won't ask about such details."

Meng Yan explained, but his face was blank.

"Mr. Meng, what are you thinking about?"

"It's okay. She came back so suddenly this time that I'm not used to it. I'll have to ask her when she's leaving. I'm upset if she keeps staying here."

Gan Qi was very surprised: "How could you do this? Mom works so hard outside... She left her hometown... She finally came back, and you want to chase her away?"

"If your father knew this, he would be so sad."

Meng Yan: "There are many things you don't know. I'll tell you later."

Gan Qi: “But…”

She wanted to explain to him how to get along with family members, but when she raised her eyes, she met his reserved and steady gaze, and the whole bunch of truths in her mouth were instantly swallowed back.

Yes, it seemed that she had no right to ask about his family's private affairs.

Gan Qi stood up and took out a red envelope from her bag and handed it to him: "This is the red envelope your mother gave me when we had dinner. I will give it to you intact."

Meng Yan was stunned.

"No, it was originally given to you."

Gan Qi smiled faintly: "We are not getting married normally, I shouldn't accept it."

As she spoke, she placed the red envelopes neatly on the coffee table in front of the sofa.

Meng Yan walked over, took the red envelope, gently opened it and looked inside. There was a stack of banknotes and a square gold medal with inscriptions on it.

Meng Yan took the banknotes in his hand. Wow! Brand new Euro and US dollars with consecutive numbers, and even commemorative coins?

The red envelope my mother gave out was really... both traditional and trendy.

Meng Yan: "You should keep the red envelope as a souvenir. I can't use it anyway."

Gan Qi wiped his hands and walked over. Seeing the colorful banknotes in the red envelope, he found it quite novel.

"Oh, are these real money?"

Meng Yan: "It's probably the commemorative coins she collected, which are different from ordinary money."

Gan Qi picked up the square gold medal with the traditional Chinese characters "Peace and Joy" engraved on it. He weighed it and found it was quite heavy.

"This...isn't it pure gold?"

Although she had never bought gold jewelry, she knew that the price of gold was not cheap nowadays. Such a big piece must be worth tens of thousands of dollars!

Meng Yan: "How could it be pure gold? It's probably a decorative alloy collectible. It seems to be popular over there. It means good luck, you should keep it well."

Gan Qi hesitated.

Meng Yan: "Keep it, it's a token of her love!"

"……OK!"

Since they were all commemorative items, Gan Qi felt that the meaning behind these things was greater than money, so she immediately found an exquisite box and put them away carefully.

Meng Yan knew that a lady of his mother's status would never give ordinary gifts, and the true value of these things must be very high - fortunately Gan Qi didn't know them.

"Mr. Meng, what are we going to eat tonight? Do we need to invite mom over for dinner?"

"Mom is at her friend's place. She needs to visit several friends on her trip back."

Gan Qi wasn't hungry. "How about I make something light tonight and we can both consider it as losing weight."

"it is good."

Gan Qi simply mixed a cold dish, cooked some egg soup, and roasted potato chips in an air fryer, and served them on the table one by one.

Meng Yan was not hungry. He turned on the TV with the remote control and picked a TV series to watch.

Gan Qi specially poured two full cups of juice, and according to Tao Xixi's instruction, she and Meng Yan each had a cup.

Meng Yan's eyes moved slightly when he saw the juice that Gan Qi poured into the cup.

He remembered the testing method his mother taught him and thought to himself: Just right.

That’s right, the method that Lai Wanqiong taught her son is the same as the method that Tao Xixi taught her best friend.

They all use the cup to judge whether the other person likes them or not.

The two of them were eating while absent-mindedly watching TV. An idol drama whose name they couldn't remember was being played on TV, and the male and female protagonists were also eating.

Gan Qi quietly kept an eye on the two people's cups, preparing to find a suitable opportunity to "inadvertently" place her cup next to his.

Because they usually sit on opposite sides of the table when eating, she was afraid of arousing his suspicion by rashly placing the tableware too close today.

What she was worried about was also what Meng Yan was thinking at the moment.

Meng Yan ate calmly on the surface, but he was also thinking about how to put the cup next to her "without leaving any trace".
