Was it a habit to cook noodles with a pair of murderous hands?
Xiao Zheng was dumbfounded on the spot. His first reaction was to withdraw his hand to prevent Ye Yuhua from probing further.
But very quickly, when this thought popped up in his mind, Xiao Zheng quickly suppressed it. His hand rested motionlessly on Ye Yuhua's palm. His expression was normal.
It was obvious that Ye Yuhua understood everything about him. Whether it was what Lin Chaotian had told her or what she knew herself, Ye Yuhua's visit this time, in addition to celebrating her daughter's birthday, was most likely to see what the man by her daughter's side was like.
Xiao Zheng couldn't guess Ye Yuhua's attitude, but at least up until now, his mother-in-law didn't show the slightest rejection or dislike. Everything he did for her, all the attentiveness he offered, she accepted it all calmly and elegantly.
Since the other party was so frank, Xiao Zheng really couldn't find a reason to hide it, and there was no reason to deceive the other party and hide his true self.
After a short period of contemplation, Xiao Zheng smiled as usual and said, "Habit."
"Do you like it?" Ye Yuhua was still gently holding Xiao Zheng's hand, maintaining a posture that looked very strange, but was completed by her to be pleasing to the eye. She asked gently.
"I like it." Xiao Zheng nodded lightly and said softly.
"Good child." Ye Yuhua smiled very brightly. Vaguely, Xiao Zheng felt as if he had returned to twenty years ago, when Ye Yuhua was in her prime, admiring her most radiant appearance.
Lin Huayin's mother was indeed a very charming woman. Even though she was nearing middle age, her appearance, her bearing, and her manner of speaking were all incomparable to women of the same age. Even if a proud daughter like Lin Huayin was compared to Ye Yuhua, she still lacked a trace of maturity, and had an extra touch of youth.
Ye Yuhua let go of Xiao Zheng's hand and gazed at Xiao Zheng with a kind gaze. She said gently, "Huayin wants to be strong and refuses to admit defeat. If you're tired of being with her, just let me know. Although I can't help you much, I can recite a passage of scripture to help you calm your mind. "
"Thank you, Auntie," Xiao Zheng said in fear and trepidation. "Although Hua Yin is stubborn, she usually treats me well and has never bullied me."
Ye Yuhua smiled and said softly, "She is my daughter. I understand her."
Xiao Zheng said awkwardly, "Yes, you must be the person who understands her the most in this world."
"Not necessarily." Ye Yuhua shook her head and smiled. "The one who understands her the most in this world should be her father, not me."
Xiao Zheng was slightly startled, but he didn't know what to say. He just smiled honestly and asked Ye Yuhua to drink some tea.
He didn't know if it was the natural nervousness of a son-in-law meeting his mother-in-law, or if Ye Yuhua was really a woman who hid her depths. After experiencing a short period of comfort, Xiao Zheng gradually felt pressured. It was as if Ye Yuhua's clear and moving eyes could easily see through the depths of his soul. It made Xiao Zheng feel a little unnatural and a little restless.
"Auntie, please take a seat first. I'll go wake Huayin up. It's already half past seven. "Xiao Zheng left the living room as if he was escaping and rushed up to the second floor.
For the first time in his life, Xiao Zheng rushed into Lin Huayin's room without any burden. He didn't feel any psychological pressure. Usually, every time Xiao Zheng entered Lin Huayin's room, he would cheer himself on and even recite a passage of domineering Rivers Run Red to boost his courage.
Click.
Xiao Zheng pushed the door open and entered. Just when he was about to wake Lin Huayin up, he found that Lin Huayin was already sitting in front of the desk in her work attire. She didn't express any opinion about Xiao Zheng's sudden intrusion and his overnight stay. She didn't even raise her head. She just quietly read through the documents with a normal expression.
"You're already up?" Xiao Zheng anxiously leaned over with great pressure. "Your mother is sitting downstairs. Why don't you come downstairs to accompany her?"
Lin Huayin didn't answer Xiao Zheng immediately. Instead, she finished the work at hand and slowly raised her head. She expressionlessly said, "She has hands and feet. Why should I accompany her?"
"— —" Xiao Zheng's expression froze. He didn't expect the relationship between the mother and daughter to be so bad. He couldn't help but sit next to Lin Huayin and tried to persuade her with kind words. "Auntie came all the way from Beijing to celebrate your birthday. Can't you have a better attitude? We're a family. Is there a need to be so stiff? "
Lin Huayin put down the pen and said without changing her expression, "I've never thought about my birthday. I don't plan to waste time on the working day. If you're interested in chatting with her, I'll give you a day off. "
After that, Lin Huayin coldly stood up and packed up the documents, preparing to go to work.
Seeing Lin Huayin's cold attitude, Xiao Zheng immediately became furious. He couldn't help but make up his mind. He suddenly grabbed Lin Huayin's waist and fiercely slapped her perky butt twice. Then, ignoring Lin Huayin's struggle, he couldn't help but throw her on the bed and fiercely said, "I want to see how you're going to leave this house today!"
"You're going against the heavens! As a mother, I came all the way to see my daughter. It's only for a day. You actually want to go to work? "
Xiao Zheng felt that his attitude wasn't tough enough. He continued, "How can there be overnight hatred between a mother and daughter? Not to mention that she's just too busy with work and has no time to take care of you. Even if she really did something to you, can't you be more magnanimous as a daughter? You're a top student who graduated from a famous university. In terms of family affection, you're even worse than me, an illiterate high school dropout. "
Lin Huayin's butt was numb and painful from Xiao Zheng's slaps. She only felt that half of her butt seemed to have lost feeling. Lying on the bed, she didn't feel anything. A pair of resentful eyes stared coldly at Xiao Zheng. It was as if the two of them had an irreconcilable hatred. She was extremely angry.
"What are you looking at? Aren't you tired of looking at her every day? "Xiao Zheng said angrily. "If you don't serve my mother-in-law well today, do you believe that I won't kill you? You're simply too lawless! "
Lin Huayin fiercely stared at Xiao Zheng like a shrew who kept jabbering on and on, especially when he said that she should serve his mother-in-law well. Her pair of ice-cold eyes quietly changed. The coldness slightly eased, and a look of surprise flashed on her fair and pretty face. She stiffly said, "Can't you just talk nicely? Is it very promising for a man to hit a woman? "
Xiao Zheng listened to Lin Huayin's obviously soft words, and his hanging heart finally relaxed. He secretly thought, 'Sure enough, I still have to be reasonable. Otherwise, wouldn't this ice-cold woman chop me up with a knife? '
After pondering for a moment, Xiao Zheng also became amiable. He stepped forward to help the rather aggrieved Lin Huayin up and softly persuaded, "You see, our mother is a nun, and it's not easy for her to come all the way to Mingzhu. You're her daughter. Even if you have some opinions about her, you still have to give her face, right? Does your butt hurt? Do you want me to give you some safflower oil? "
"Go away."
Lin Huayin pushed away the naughty Xiao Zheng and coldly said, "Get out, I want to change my clothes."
"What are you afraid of? What's our relationship? You want to avoid me when you want to change your clothes? Tell me, where are your pajamas? I'll go get them for you. "Xiao Zheng very boldly said.
"Xiao Zheng, if you go too far, don't blame me for turning against you." Lin Huayin coldly said. Her eyes were filled with anger. She was obviously angered by Xiao Zheng.
"Okay, okay. You quickly change your clothes, I'll go down first. " Xiao Zheng took two steps back. He was afraid that Lin Huayin would take the scissors under the pillow and stab his crotch. If that happened, it would be a big loss.
