Chapter 29 A Gamble

Seeing her frowning, Xi Zheng suddenly said, "Don't you like eating this bun?"

"..."

Sang Yu subconsciously wanted to nod, but suddenly felt something was wrong. Given the previous relationship between Xi Zheng and Sang Yu, would Xi Zheng and Sang Yu pay special attention to what the other party likes to eat?

Thinking again of what Xi Zheng asked An An just now, she quickly adjusted her expression and said, "Where did you see that?"

Xi Zheng had never bought this bun before, he just wanted to deceive Sang Yu, but he didn't expect that the other party wouldn't take the bait at all.

But it also made Sang Yu even more suspicious.

He spoke in an unhurried tone, "This is a local vegetarian bun. I thought you would like it."

... Damn, I was tricked.

Sang Yu took a hard bite of the steamed bun, which was filled with dried tofu and vermicelli. It tasted much better than she thought. After swallowing it, she said, "It's just like that if you eat too much."

I don't know if it was because of her good acting skills, but Xi Zheng didn't say anything more, just curled his lips. This scene once again stunned Xi Baiyang and An An.

In my impression, Xi Zheng doesn't seem to like to smile much.

Xi Zheng's eyes moved, and Xi Boyang quickly lowered his head and drank the soy milk.

Well, it's pretty sweet.

At the end of the meal, several people at the dinner table had their own thoughts.

Xi Baiyang put on his military green schoolbag and prepared to go to school. He walked to the door peacefully, with Xi Zheng following behind.

"You all know the way, right?"

"Ah."

Xi Zheng took him for a trip yesterday, and Xi Boyang came back by himself after school at noon, without the need for anyone to pick him up or drop him off.

... Sang Yu, who had just lost her way some time ago, felt insulted.

She was about to go back to the house when she suddenly heard the sound of the door opening next door. Sang Yu rolled her eyes and took two steps forward quietly.

Suddenly he found someone standing next to Xi Zheng:...

Xi Baiyang thought Sang Yu had something to say to him, so he paused for a moment. At this moment, a figure walked out from the next door.

She was pushing a [-]-inch large sedan with a little girl in the back seat.

When she saw Xi Zheng, a smile appeared on the woman's face, "Director Xi, are you going out so early?"

After saying that, he noticed a little girl standing next to Xi Zheng. After seeing the stranger, he quickly hid behind him without even seeing what she looked like.

Xi Zheng recognized that this was Lin Mei'e, the daughter-in-law of the deputy factory director, and nodded slightly, "Sister-in-law wants to go out too?"

"My daughter sprained her feet two days ago. She has her final exam soon. If she doesn't go to school, she will have to take the test and come back with a duck egg. I thought about giving it to her as a gift."

Lin Mei'e said it over, but her eyes kept circling on Xi Baiyang and An An. The boy should be the one she saw yesterday. Who is this little girl?
"You should go there early, sister-in-law, be careful on the road." Sang Yu waved her hand, looking forward to her leaving.

"I'm not that anxious."

Lin Mei'e wouldn't have the intention to leave unless she asked him clearly, but she couldn't say anything to Xi Zheng, and her face almost turned red.

Sang Yu thought to herself that she really thought she was easy to bully. Otherwise, with such a good opportunity, why didn't she just ask Xi Zheng who the child was?
"I go first."

Seeing that Sang Yu had nothing to say, Xi Baiyang's eyes dimmed slightly and he left without looking back.

After seeing off the people, Xi Zheng was about to go inside. Lin Mei'e finally couldn't help but say, "Director, is this your child?"

"I remembered, my sister-in-law asked about Baiyang before and forgot to introduce him." Sang Yu pressed her temples, mainly because she didn't know how to introduce him.Lin Mei'e nodded like a chicken pecking at rice. Xi Zheng also understood Sang Yu's difficulty and took the initiative to answer, "Bo Yang is my son and An An is my daughter. I have been living in my hometown before. I just took it over a few days ago.”

"So it is."

Unexpectedly, Xi Zheng's child would be so big at such a young age. Lin Mei'e looked at Sang Yu with a sigh of relief. When she first got married, many people envied her, but she ended up being a stepmother.

No wonder there were only a few tables set up for the banquet...

"Ouch, I have to go to school quickly, or I'll be late."

Lin Mei'e remembered that her daughter was still in the car, so she quickly got on her bicycle and turned around to chat with the others.

Sang Yu had to go out today, which might make Xi Zheng suspicious again. She had planned it carefully, waiting for Xi Zheng to go to the factory before leaving, so as not to make the other party suspicious again.

Unexpectedly, the other party did not come out after entering the study. Sang Yu had packed up, and Xi Zheng's bicycle was still in the yard.

She hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward and knocked on the study door.

"Come in."

After Xi Zheng's voice fell, Sang Yu pushed the door open and entered.

The man sat in front of the window, staring at the information in his hand, and asked without raising his head, "What's the matter?"

"Aren't you going to the factory today?"

"Go there later." Xi Zheng then raised his eyes, "What's wrong?"

"It's the toothbrushes I bought for An An and Bai Yang, but they don't seem to have used them. If you're not busy, you can teach them how to use them."

Previously, Xi Zheng made a special trip to other places for An An's affairs, which caused a backlog of things in the factory, and indeed he neglected things at home.

Xi Zheng nodded, "I'll be back early in the evening."

After a while, seeing that Sang Yu still didn't leave, he raised his eyelids and asked, "Is there anything else?"

Sang Yu took a few steps forward, walked around the desk, and came to Xi Zheng's side. She traced her fingers across the table and leaned lightly, "Do you still have money in your hand?"

Xi Zheng's eyes moved from her fingers to the other party's beautiful face. He took a deep breath and then straightened his expression, "Have you spent all your living expenses?"

"It's not that the family needs money." Sang Yu licked her lips, "I have a friend whose father needs an operation, which costs 600 yuan."

After saying this, Xi Zheng stood up from the chair. He was tall and had long legs. He only took half a step to reach Sang Yu. Sang Yu had no choice but to retreat.

Xi Zheng pressed forward step by step until her back touched the bookshelf.

The man put his palms on the bookshelf and looked at her condescendingly, "Friend?"

"Very important friend."

Sang Yu took a deep breath, suddenly raised her chin, and reached out to hook the other person's neck. Xi Zheng's back immediately froze, and his pupils shrank slightly.

Sensing the change in the other party, Sang Yu felt happy in her heart, but she didn't dare to show it. She looked into his eyes with watery eyes and exhaled, "I know I can't get this money from you, nor should you pay it. So I want to help her raise some money myself, and I might be a little busier during this time, you won’t object, right?”

Xi Zheng wanted to answer her question seriously, but the heat in the air seemed to be able to burn people, and his thinking could not function normally. He could only roll his Adam's apple and said a few words from between his teeth, "I Go teach An An how to brush her teeth."

He pinched Sang Yu's arm, pulled the distance between them, and turned around almost fleeing.

A few seconds later, Sang Yu covered her beating heart, thanks to her gamble.

But, does Xi Zheng need to be so afraid of her?
It’s like Tang Monk saw a goblin...
