Usually, Xu Moyan wouldn't come back during the three-day break, so they lied about Xu Qingrui being hospitalized to trick Xu Moyan to come back. Who knew that there was no need to lie, Xu Moyan was already on the train.
"If not, why don't we eat here? Why don't we eat dinner here too?" Li Lanying said. "You just came back not long ago. Jin City has changed so much. Have you gone out these few days?"
"Yes, I just came back and planned to rest for a while, so I went around. But I didn't see everything, and there are still some places I don't know," Tian Yuwen replied.
Xu Qingrui had always been in charge of the Xu family. At this moment, Xu Qingrui got up and went to the kitchen to prepare lunch. He said, "I'll go prepare lunch first. You guys have a good chat here."
"Dad, let me help you," Xu Moyan said. She was now clear about her parents' plans, but of course, she wouldn't let them do as they wished.
Without needing Li Lanying to say anything, Xu Qingrui had already stopped her. "Child, when did I let you do anything when you came back? Just sit here and enjoy yourself. Also, Yuwen came today. As an old classmate, you should have a good chat with him. "
"That's right." Li Lanying also said and even looked at her husband with approval. This made Xu Qingrui very happy and he walked briskly to the kitchen.
"That's good. Moyan has been working outside for a long time and only comes back a few times a year. She's not as familiar with Jin City as before. Why don't you guys go out and have some fun these two days?" Li Lanying suggested and poured tea for Tian Yuwen.
"Don't be so busy, Director Li. I can do it myself." Tian Yuwen quickly took the teapot from Li Lanying and poured tea for Li Lanying first and then for Xu Moyan. "If I can go out with Moyan, that'd be great."
When he entered the door, he realized that Xu Moyan didn't seem to be too friendly. She had the necessary manners, but he didn't know if she knew what he was thinking, so she took the initiative to distance herself from him.
If that was the case, Tian Yuwen was a little disappointed. He hoped that Xu Moyan was unfamiliar with him because they hadn't seen each other for many years, and not because she didn't want to go further with him.
Hence, he was afraid that Xu Moyan would reject this suggestion, so Tian Yuwen added, "After all, we haven't seen each other for a long time, and we want to take the opportunity to catch up. I heard that Mo Yan is working in B City. It's rare for her to come back and meet her. It's not easy. "
"That's right, Moyan. Go out with Yuwen after dinner," Li Lanying said.
Xu Moyan was really annoyed now. She was just thinking of how to politely persuade Tian Yuwen to leave, but Li Lanying just had to add fuel to the fire.
Xu Moyan had a good impression of Tian Yuwen, but it wasn't a good impression that had anything to do with romance. Instead, she remembered how he always helped his female classmates in high school in a gentlemanly way.
He was a polite and good-natured boy.
Even now, she didn't want to embarrass Tian Yuwen. After all, he didn't do anything. He just expressed his affection for her. As for the fact that she had a boyfriend, he didn't know.
The only thing that stifled his heart was that Li Lanying didn't know anything and still wanted to help by the side.
Xu Moyan thought about it. If there was a chance to talk to Tian Yuwen alone later, it would be good to hint to him. It was better than Li Lanying standing there.
If she said that she had a boyfriend on the spot, everyone would feel awkward.
Xu Qingrui prepared lunch. Because there were four of them, there weren't many dishes. There were six dishes and one soup. It was already very sumptuous when placed on the table, and it was obvious that he had put a lot of effort into the dishes.
"Oh right, Yuwen, after you came back, what plans do you have for work? Which field are you looking for? "Xu Qingrui said.
He was happy and even opened a bottle of white wine.
Tian Yuwen had been studying abroad and didn't really drink this. His alcohol tolerance wasn't very good, but to make Xu Qingrui happy, he also poured a glass and drank slowly.
"I studied venture capital overseas, so after I came back, I also want to find a job in this field," Tian Yuwen said. "These two days, I also learned about some companies in Jing City and realized that the development here isn't very mature yet. There are more opportunities in B City. So I plan to rest for a while and then go to B City to develop. "
"That's true. Young people should go out and explore more." Li Lanying nodded. "In the past, I always felt that among the students in Old Xu's class, you're someone who has a plan. You know what you want and have a plan for everything. This is very good. It just so happens that Moyan is also working in B City. After you go to B City, the two of you can take care of each other. Although it has been many years since Moyan made her way in B City alone, I still can't be at ease. "
"Don't worry. Also, when I go, I will need Moyan's help. After all, I'm a newcomer and Moyan has lived in B City for a long time," Tian Yuwen said with a smile.
"Yes, yes, yes." Li Lanying nodded. "If there's anything, feel free to ask Moyan for help. After all, she has been in B City for a long time and is familiar with all kinds of places and things. Don't stand on ceremony with her. "
As Li Lanying said this, she looked at Xu Moyan, waiting for her to express her opinion.
Xu Moyan was a classmate. Even if they were friends, it was only right for her to take care of them when they went to B City.
Although she didn't like Li Lanying's attitude, she still nodded and said, "Yes, feel free to look for me if there's anything. It's okay."
"Yuwen, do you still not have Moyan's phone number?" Li Lanying asked, not giving Xu Moyan any chance to dodge.
Tian Yuwen immediately took out his phone and asked for Xu Moyan's number.
Xu Moyan told him the number and Tian Yuwen called after keying it in. Xu Moyan's phone rang for half a second before it was cut off. Then, she keyed in Tian Yuwen's name.
After lunch, Xu Moyan wanted to help clean up but was chased out by Li Lanying. She told her to go out with Tian Yuwen.
Xu Moyan frowned, thought about it and agreed.
She went downstairs with Tian Yuwen. It was afternoon and the children had already finished eating. The courtyard became lively again.
When Xu Moyan and Tian Yuwen walked, they would pass by children running around crazily.
"Where is a good place to go now?" Tian Yuwen asked. "I drove here. Why don't we find a coffee shop? We haven't seen each other for many years. We can have a good chat. "
Xu Moyan looked at the time. She had to leave an hour earlier to go to the airport. She also had to prepare some ingredients to cook for Wei Zilin at night. There wasn't enough time.
So, Xu Moyan rejected. "No need. Actually —"
"Do you have something to do in the afternoon?" Tian Yuwen asked. The afternoon sun shone on his body, giving him a warm feeling.
Although Tian Yuwen's looks weren't as good as Wei Zilin's, he had a scholarly air. He was delicate and pretty, the kind that gave people a good impression.
Since Tian Yuwen mentioned it, Xu Moyan took the opportunity to say, "Yes. Actually, my boyfriend is coming today."
Tian Yuwen's face froze for a moment. He couldn't hide his disappointment. "You have a boyfriend? Director Li and Teacher Xu both said — "
He thought that Xu Moyan was purposely finding an excuse to reject him.
Xu Moyan shook her head and said, "We got together after Chinese New Year. Before this, I was in B City and didn't come back. My parents don't know about this. Actually, I came back today because of my boyfriend's suggestion. He wants to meet your parents. "
At the mention of Wei Zilin, Xu Moyan's face seemed to be glowing. It was especially dazzling under the sunlight.
The color of her face was indescribably good. It was fair and translucent. Her eyes shone with starlight and were filled with love for that man.
This made Tian Yuwen's heart sink bit by bit. He was indescribably disappointed.
"Originally, I wanted to give my parents a surprise today. But when I came back, there was a small accident. I didn't even have the chance to tell them about it when I came in. My boyfriend had already bought two tickets to come with me. But he went on a business trip two days ago and was in a hurry to finish his work. He booked a flight in the afternoon and will arrive at 5 pm. When I go back later, I have to tell my parents about this, "Xu Moyan said. Her smile was very gentle. There was no smugness or boasting. There was only yearning when she mentioned her boyfriend.
She took out her phone and showed a photo to Tian Yuwen.
This photo was taken of Wei Zilin one morning a week ago when she woke up.
At that time, Wei Zilin was still sleeping. His handsome and elegant face was indescribably peaceful. Looking at him, it was as if he was also in a beautiful dream.
His brows were relaxed and he seemed to be dreaming about something. There was a faint smile on his lips.
It was just that after she took this photo, Wei Zilin woke up and was discovered by him. He pressed her into his arms and kissed her wantonly. He almost took her.
Luckily, Wei Zilin stopped in the end and gently kissed the tip of her nose.
But his voice was tight and husky. It wasn't as relaxed as that kiss.
"If I didn't have to go to work, I —" Wei Zilin said halfway and couldn't continue.
Speaking of which, the two of them hadn't reached the last step.
She didn't know what he was thinking. Did he think that she wasn't ready yet? So even if they slept on the same bed, no matter how much he kissed her, he would never break the last line of defense.
But she couldn't take the initiative to say that she could.
She could only wait for Wei Zilin to slowly understand.
Thinking of the scene at that time, Xu Moyan couldn't help but blush. Under the spring sun, she looked even more beautiful.
Anyone who saw her would not doubt that she was in love.
But now that Xu Moyan was standing in front of Tian Yuwen, people might misunderstand that they were a couple.
But Tian Yuwen felt bitter. He knew that Xu Moyan wasn't like this because of him.
Looking at the photo on the phone, the last bit of doubt in his heart disappeared. If they weren't so intimate, how could it be possible to take a photo of a man sleeping?
Xu Moyan also didn't want such a private photo of Wei Zilin to be seen by others. If she wasn't afraid that Tian Yuwen wouldn't believe her, she wouldn't have taken it out.
She hurriedly kept her phone.
Since her boyfriend was coming over today, Tian Yuwen couldn't stay any longer. He smiled and said, "Since that's the case, I'll leave first. We'll contact each other when we're in B City. "
