Chapter 291 Accomplice
Wang Yiyang handed the small bowl in front of him to his mother, who happily took it but said disdainfully:
"I usually ask you to eat more, but you always say you're full. Today, the sun really rose from the west, and you actually asked to eat."
While complaining, Sister Wu filled a bowl of clay pot rice for her son and gently placed the bowl back in front of her son.
"Eat more, you look so thin."
"Okay, Mom, when have I never finished the meal you served me?"
Sister Wu smiled with satisfaction and patted her son's arm shyly.
Wang Yiyang smiled at her and then started eating.
Zheng's mother, who was sitting opposite, couldn't help but think of her own son Zhu Kai when watching the interaction between Sister Wu and her son.
After Zhu Kai knew the truth, the two of them hadn't had a proper private chat yet, and he didn't know if the other party was willing to call her "Mom"...
The Zheng family mother and daughter had no appetite for the meal, but Sister Wu looked very happy, as if her son was going to get married tomorrow.
"Little sister, you see we are so destined to be together. I got along well with you when we were working together, and our children know each other. How about asking them to add each other on WeChat? That way it will be more convenient for us to go out and play."
Mother Zheng glanced at her daughter and saw that she had no special reaction to Sister Wu's words. She cautiously urged:
"Daughter, Aunt Wu asked you to add Xiao Wang on WeChat..."
"Auntie Zheng, we've already added each other on WeChat. Previously, due to work needs, I added several people from their company on WeChat, including Zheng Yi."
Wang Yiyang glanced at the listless Zheng Yi and explained first.
After hearing what the man said, Zheng Yi smiled at her.
Wang Yiyang felt that the smile was extremely bitter, like a cup of bitter coffee that could not be dissolved.
Sister Wu pulled Zheng's mother aside and whispered a lot to her, and Zheng's mother nodded frequently.
"Little sister, what's wrong with you?" Sister Wu only noticed that something was wrong with Zheng's mother at this time.
"Ah? What did you say?"
Mother Zheng pulled herself out of her confused thoughts and asked in a trance.
Sister Wu looked at her strangely and repeated:
"I asked you what's wrong... Why do you seem so absent-minded? You don't even know what I just asked you."
"Oh... I just ate too much... I feel a little dizzy."
Sister Wu laughed heartily, clapped her hands and said:
"I'm full too. I really enjoyed this meal today."
The two families walked along the mall for a while, and finally Wang Yiyang drove the Zheng mother and daughter home.
As soon as Zheng's mother entered the house, she slammed the door with such a loud bang that the wall was almost cracked.
"I'm home?"
Father Zhu came over with a smile on his face and took the bag from Mother Zheng's hand.
"You're back so soon?" The middle-aged man bent down, looking at Zheng's mother and asked, "Is the Cantonese food delicious?"
The response he got was a roll of the eyes from Zheng's mother.
amount……
Zhu Gaoyuan touched the back of his head in confusion. Did he say something wrong again?
But he didn't say anything...
The middle-aged man looked at his daughter following behind Zheng's mother and felt that she looked very much like his ex-wife, even their walking posture was exactly the same.
Others say that sons look like their mothers and daughters look like their fathers, but in their family it’s the exact opposite.
Zhu Kai looks like him, and Zheng Yi looks like his ex-wife.
"Uncle Zhu, is there something on my face?" Zheng Yi's eyes were confused and she wiped her face randomly with her hands.
"No... no." Zhu's father said quickly. The middle-aged man looked behind his daughter and asked, "Why didn't Zhu Kai come back with you?"
Upon hearing this, Zheng's mother in the living room quickly adjusted the expression on her face.
When Zhu's father and Zheng Yi came to the living room, the middle-aged woman's face was no longer filled with resentment. Zheng's mother pretended to be concerned and asked:
"Is Zhu Kai not back yet? I often heard Zheng Yi say that he had to work overtime in meetings until very late." After saying that, Zheng's mother looked at Zheng Yi and asked, "Really? Zheng Yi..."
Seeing that the elders on both sides looked concerned and sympathetic towards Zhu Kai, Zheng Yi felt even more ashamed of Zhu Kai's behavior, as if she had become an accomplice of his strange behavior.
When the man comes back, she will definitely ask him if it is because of work that he did not reply to her messages for almost the whole day and instead had dinner with another young and beautiful girl.
But at this moment, she had to pretend that nothing had happened and appease the elders on both sides.
"Yes, Mom, Uncle Zhu."
"Zhu Kai sent me a message this afternoon, saying he would be home late that night."
"Then why don't you prepare something for him to eat? It won't be too late to cook when he comes back." Father Zhu turned and walked towards the kitchen.
"No need to cook for him!" Zheng's mother blurted out. After she finished speaking, she realized that her tone was very impolite. She immediately smiled and said, "I mean, he's already grown up. He should eat something in advance."
"Even if he didn't eat, he came home so late, it would be better for him to eat some noodles that are easy to digest."
Mr. Zhu thought about it and realized that there was nothing to prepare for making noodles.
So he nodded and said, "Okay, let's wait until he comes back."
The news from CCTV-1 was playing on TV. Zheng's mother sat on the sofa, picked up the remote control to change the channel, and chose a local satellite TV station that was broadcasting a family ethics drama.
When Zheng's mother was in her hometown, she had watched the previous episodes of this drama. As soon as the male protagonist appeared, she started to speak in front of the camera.
The voice was sonorous and powerful, and the movements were very ups and downs, as if she wanted to eat the male protagonist alive, which scared Zhu's father.
The middle-aged man put his knees together, dug his toes into the ground, and shrunk his neck to pick his fingers.
Zheng Yi saw Zhu's father's reaction and quickly explained,
"Uncle Zhu, don't mind it..." Zheng Yi whispered secretly to Zhu Gaoyuan.
Zhu Gaoyuan smiled, revealing the crow's feet at the corners of his eyes.
Zheng Yi was in a trance for a moment, and the expression on Zhu Kai's face when he condoned her strange behavior flashed through her mind. It was very similar to the look on Zhu's father's face at the moment.
"This male protagonist is such a piece of shit. He clearly has a girlfriend, but he's still having an affair with another woman. The female protagonist is kept in the dark. It's so pitiful..."
Mother Zheng sighed and said, "I won't watch it anymore. It's annoying!"
Mother Zheng stood up from the sofa, and at this moment...
The combination lock is open!
It’s Zhu Kai who’s back.
Father Zhu hurried to the entrance and looked at Zhu Kai with a smile on his face.
"Son, you are finally back!"
Zhu Kai bent down to change his shoes and took off his mask.
"You haven't had dinner yet... Can I make you some noodles?" Zhu's father asked.
Zhu Kai looked down at the shoe rack and saw Zheng's mother and Zheng Yi's shoes neatly placed together.
The man spoke, his voice a little louder than usual, as if he was afraid that the people in the living room couldn't hear him.
"Dad, I've already eaten outside, you don't have to cook for me!"
