Xu Jingyan seemed to sigh: "This is also the first time I met Zhengdong's wife. I happened to be abroad when he got married, and I didn't have the chance to meet her later."

Bai Xiao was not stupid. From Xu Jingyan's words, he discovered that his topic had never moved away from Su Manrong.

As for why Xu Jingyan was so curious about Su Manrong, she didn't know, and she didn't want to delve into it, because it had nothing to do with her.

"I haven't had breakfast yet," Xu Jingyan parked the car in front of a Yonghe soy milk store, "You don't mind, would you like to spend some time here with me?"

Bai Xiao twitched her lips and thought, after you said that, can I still turn around and leave?

Xu Jingyan ordered a very simple meal, and also ordered a cup of soy milk for Bai Xiao. Bai Xiao got up early today and drank most of a bowl of porridge. At this moment, sitting in the breakfast shop, he was also a little hungry, so when

Xu Jingyan brought the soy milk to her, but Bai Xiao still took it: "Thank you."

"You're welcome." Xu Jingyan saw her reddish cheeks, smile, and faint fine lines at the corners of her eyes, which made him look more calm and approachable.

Bai Xiao took a sip of hot soy milk and subconsciously pressed her hand on her lower abdomen.

"You know? When I saw you for the first time, I had some misconceptions, thinking that I had met an old friend I hadn't seen for many years." Xu Jingyan looked at the girl opposite, who had her eyes lowered and was a little distracted, and smiled indulgently: "But you and I

She is different, your temperament is more cheerful than hers."

Bai Xiao raised his head and looked at Xu Jingyan. He said, "Look carefully now, you actually don't look much alike."

"There are a lot of people who look alike in this world." There is a Xu family between them, and what happened last night means that Bai Xiao can't talk to Xu Jingyan like she did in C City.

Xu Jingyan was middle-aged, and of course he could see Bai Xiao's caution when talking to him, but he never blamed him. Didn't he come to her with a certain purpose? He* didn't sleep, and the past came flooding back.

He desperately wanted to know some truth, but couldn't find a way to find out.

The Yu family... can't. He can't talk to his elder brother and sister-in-law. The only person who can pry is Bai Xiao in front of him.

She is the future wife of the third child of the Yu family. Last night, he saw Ning Xuan talking to her. Judging from the tone of her voice, they were no strangers...

In fact, even he himself didn't know why he thought of Bai Xiao in the first place. He inexplicably trusted this girl whom he had never met a few times.

Even the secrets that have been buried deep in my heart for many years are willing to be shared with her.

However, when Bai Xiao really sat in front of him, Xu Jingyan found that he didn't know where to start to find out what he wanted to know from her.

Bai Xiao's cell phone rang. It was a call from Yu Shaoting. She answered it without leaving her seat: "Hello?...It's outside."

"..."

When Yu Shaoting asked her what she was doing, Bai Xiao glanced at Xu Jingyan opposite, who had already stretched out his hand: "Give me the phone and I'll talk to him."

Xu Jingyan said two or three words to Yu Shaoting, which was nothing more than pleasantries, and then returned the phone to Bai Xiao.

Bai Xiao heard Yu Shaoting say over there: "If you are tired from shopping, go back and rest early."

It was somewhat beyond Bai Xiao's expectation. She thought that with Yu Shaoting's temper, he would directly order her to go home immediately after learning that she was with the Xu family.

——————————

Although Bai Xiao has lived in Fengcheng for twenty years, he has been busy with work in recent years and has not taken a good trip to Fengcheng's scenic spots.

Perhaps because of her pregnancy, Bai Xiao looked a little weak after not shopping for long, and her legs were sore.

"Are you tired?" Xu Jingyan noticed her strangeness very carefully.

Bai Xiao wanted to say it was okay, but considering the child in her belly, she still nodded and laughed at herself. She didn't know that she didn't feel anything before she was pregnant. As soon as she knew she was pregnant, she immediately became squeamish: "I'll find a place to sit down."

, you can go up and have a look yourself."

Xu Jingyan glanced towards the top of the mountain. In fact, he was not very interested. Seeing that Bai Xiao was not feeling well, he proposed to go down the mountain and return to the car to rest.

When the two returned to the car, it was noon time. Xu Jingyan said: "Let's find a place to have lunch first."

Bai Xiao had no objection. When she noticed Xu Jingyan looking at her, she remembered that she was the "tour guide" and took Xu Jingyan to the famous Yufu Tower for dinner.

"Last time you went to Liyang, was the old man in good health?" Xu Jingyan asked suddenly.

Bai Xiao calmed down, realized that he was referring to his grandmother, and said: "It's not bad, but I'm older and don't feel at ease living alone."

"Liyang is also a relatively affluent small and medium-sized city with a developed light and textile industry. Which town are you from?"

Bai Xiao just opened his mouth when a call came in. It was the landline number of Li Yang's hometown. He put the phone to the right and called softly: "Grandma."

Xu Jingyan glanced at her, but he didn't deliberately inquire about her sexual thoughts. He concentrated on driving.

Bai Xiao knew that Jing Xing went to Liyang to pick up her grandmother yesterday. Although Yu Shaoting didn't mention it much, Yang Xi told her when she met Yang Xi by chance. Later, she felt unwell and ignored it. At this moment, her grandmother called,

She wanted her to persuade Jing Xing to go back because the old man didn't want to move to Fengcheng.

"When people get old, they all want to return to their roots. I accept your and Shaoting's wishes. If you have time, just come and visit me more often."

"... As for moving to Fengcheng, don't worry about it. Let Secretary Jing go back first."

Bai Xiao still wanted to persuade her, but the old man had already hung up the phone in a hurry. Seeing her depressed expression, Xu Jingyan asked, "Is there something wrong, old man?"

"It's nothing." Bai Xiao didn't want to talk about family matters.

Xu Jingyan didn't force her. He saw the sign of Yufu Tower in front of him and drove the car to the parking space. Then the two of them got out of the car and entered the restaurant.

In the lobby of the restaurant, maybe because the floor had just been mopped, the ground was slippery and stained with water. If Bai Xiao was not careful, her feet would slip and she would fall. Xu Jingyan stepped forward quickly and narrowly supported her. She looked pale as she protected her belly with both hands.

, couldn't help but blame: "Why are you so careless?"

The waiter came over to apologize and quickly asked the cleaner to put a "Slip with caution" warning sign next to it.

"Since it's business hours to mop the floor, if someone falls down, can you be responsible for it?" Xu Jingyan said with a rare stern tone.

"Sorry, sorry..." The waiter bowed: "The new cleaner doesn't know much about it, so please forgive me."

Bai Xiao had already stood firm and whispered to Xu Jingyan: "It's not easy for others to work, but I'm fine anyway."

Xu Jingyan didn't know why he was so angry. It was just because he saw the scene where Bai Xiao almost fell down, or because he found an excuse to vent his suppressed emotions at this moment. He glanced at the potted plant next to Bai Xiao - if Bai Xiao

Xiao fell down just now, and it is very likely that his forehead would be hit there.

But seeing that Bai Xiao didn't want to worry about it, Xu Jingyan's anger gradually subsided, and he asked for a private room with a straight face.

When ordering, Xu Jingyan still looked bad, and the waiter was trembling. Xu Jingyan handed the menu to Bai Xiao and asked her to order first. Bai Xiao browsed the menu, ordered a few light dishes, and pointed at the 'Di San Xian'

The waiter said: "Don't put garlic in this dish."

Here in Fengcheng, it is customary to add garlic when stir-frying ‘Di San Xian’.

Hearing this, Xu Jingyan put down his tea cup and looked up at Bai Xiao across from him, his eyes a little appraising.

"What's wrong?" Bai Xiao closed the menu and handed it back to Xu Jingyan: "I ordered a few vegetarian dishes. You can order whatever you like."

Xu Jingyan took the menu: "You are quite similar to me in this way. You know, I never eat garlic. None of the Xu family likes it."

"Over there in Liyang, most people don't even eat it."

"Really?" Xu Jingyan smiled softly, checked a few dishes at random, and finally asked Bai Xiao what kind of drink he wanted to drink.

Bai Xiao shook his head and pointed at the water glass: "I'll just drink water and it'll be fine."

Xu Jingyan asked the waiter for a pot of hot water. The waiter took the menu with a smile and said, "Wait a moment, and it will be brought to you right away."

When Bai Xiao held the water glass, he couldn't help but think about why there is such a big gap between people. Because Xu Jingyan's dress and temperament are like those of a rich man, so even if he just wants a glass of water in the restaurant, the waiter will be polite and change it.

As a rich man, even if you order a large table of dishes, you will be looked at with contempt.

"What are you thinking about?" Xu Jingyan's voice brought back Bai Xiao's distant thoughts.

Bai Xiao took a sip of boiled water: "I just think that maybe I should help you find a professional tour guide, so that you can have a good time."

Xu Jingyan smiled, not knowing Bai Xiao's desire to run away, "But I think you're quite nice. If you hire a tour guide, you'll have to spend money."

"You still lack this little money?" Bai Xiao didn't believe that he was so stingy. He didn't even blink when he swiped his card to pay for the meal.

For Xu Jingyan, an elder, she saw that he was a person who could distinguish right from wrong and was not pedantic, whether it was just now or in the process of getting along with him in City C. Therefore, even though his surname was Xu, she still did not hate this person, and even

Appreciate it a little bit.

While the food was being served, Xu Jingyan's cell phone rang. He looked at the caller ID, stood up and went outside to answer the call.

After a while, the private room door opened. Bai Xiao thought Xu Jingyan was back, so he turned around and asked, "The spicy chicken must be a bit strong. Would you like a glass of orange juice?"

What he saw was the arrogant old Mrs. Pei, supported by Aunt Rong. Bai Xiao couldn't help but frown.

"I thought I was mistaken, but I didn't expect it was really you." Mrs. Pei snorted, walked in uninvited, and sat down at Xu Jingyan's seat.

Aunt Rong opened her mouth and wanted to greet Bai Xiao, but due to the fierce old lady Pei, she did not call out "young mistress" after all.

Mrs. Pei glanced at the dishes on the table. They were not Yufulou's signature dishes. They were very ordinary. She frowned in disgust. There was a pot on the table for the meeting. Her mouth was a bit dry. She saw Bai Xiao sitting there and didn't move.

Mrs. Pei was not feeling well. The anger that had been suppressed for many days suddenly surged up.

A waiter came in with a plate of spicy and sour Chinese cabbage, put the plate down and left.

Old Mrs. Pei looked away from the door and looked around. Maybe there was someone sitting in the private room that she didn't like, and the private room had lowered its grade in her opinion. Old Mrs. Pei squinted at Bai Xiao: "

You are living a pleasant little life."

As she said that, Mrs. Pei raised her head and said to Aunt Rong: "Go down later and remember to buy their orders, as if they were invited by me."

"..." Aunt Rong looked at Bai Xiao across from her in embarrassment, and of course she could hear the contempt and disdain in her old lady's tone.

Bai Xiao said calmly: "No need to spend any money on you, I just bought the order and the customer will be back soon."

Such an obvious eviction order made Mrs. Pei's face change.
