Chapter 93 Gift
After eating, Liu Wangxue turned on her computer to check her emails. She was shocked by the "candor" of Du Yunkai and Xu Qingsong yesterday. She was still in a daze when she thought about it before going to bed. So I forgot to check.
Du Yunkai’s assistant from Jingshan Technology made an appointment with her in the city.
Liu Wangxue regretted it. She shouldn't have been thinking about teasing. She had already imagined what kind of "dark" scene it would be when they met.
If the two of them had let slip even a little bit when they were talking about PC games and wanted to continue working on "The Case of Zhaozhao 21", she would not have concealed the fact that she was the original author.
If they didn't send her a message asking her to do part-time work after renewing the contract, she wouldn't be interested in it.
If she hadn't had the intention of teasing him, she would have been surprised at most when they met.
No, she shouldn't have talked about copyright fees last night. This was a big mistake! Liu Wangxue simply couldn't imagine how awkward it would be for the three of them to sit together.
Will Xu Qingsong and Du Yunkai be angry? Liu Wangxue thought to herself that she seemed to have become a scheming girl unintentionally.
"Forget it, I'm just scheming! Who in the world hasn't been scheming yet!" She was mentally building herself up while replying to the email, "Although I'm scheming, the clues on my side are all obvious. What I gave you is because of your own misconceptions, and it is none of my business..."
So Liu Wangxue made a special request that pets should be allowed in the meeting place.
The reply was very quick, and he sent her the confirmed time and location, and also asked her for other contact information. After all, communication will be more frequent in the future, and there may be many trivial matters. It is not convenient to use email all the time.
Liu Wangxue gave him the account of another social platform. This platform is the first choice of most working parties. The storage function is relatively powerful and the files will not expire.
Not long after, both the assistant and Du Yunkai became her friends.
After saying hello and exchanging pleasantries, Liu Wangxue went to the living room to groom the three cats. Cats and dogs must be groomed, but the parrot just joins in the fun and must receive the treatment they deserve.
In the afternoon, Shen Nian'an came over carrying two large watermelons.
Following them were two children. Jinghe held Yuyou in one hand and croissant in the other. Yuyou also carried a bag of small tomatoes, red, yellow, black, and camouflage. Several colors mixed together.
Gu Xuelan washed a bowl of grapes, cut some pineapples and cantaloupe, and brought them out from the kitchen. She happened to see the family of three and greeted her warmly: "Come in, come in, I was talking to Xu Xu just now. , talk about Youyou and Jinghe for a while It’s time for you to come over and play. I’ll wash some fruits for you.”
Youyou and Jinghe said together: “Hello, grandma!”
“Hey, okay!” Gu Xuelan was very happy when she heard them call her "grandma".
Liu Wangxue was sitting under the grape arbor reading a book. Three cats were playing next to her. They came over when they heard the sound.
Youyou held up the tomato as if it were a treasure: "Sister, look! What a beautiful tomato, with so many colors! My brother and I picked it together."
Liu Wangxue Express your love with a cooperative exclamation.
Shen Nian'an said: "They are all grown by neighbors. I bought some and thought of sending some to you. The two children have been disturbing you a lot during this time."
"What are you disturbing? , I’m not happy enough that they came to play, there are so many people, it’s so lively.” Gu Xuelan handed the fruit to Liu Wangxue, and went to the kitchen to cut the watermelon with Shen Nian’an.
Jinghe took the tomato from Youyou's hand and followed the two adults.
Youyou never forgot to tell your brother: "You need to wash it!"
Jinghe said: "I know!"
Youyou happily ran to the grape trellis, He happily hugged the cat on the rocking chair, then climbed up and squeezed in with the cat.
Liu Wangxue put the fruit on the small table and tried to communicate with Youzi again: "Little Youzi, can we discuss something?"
Youyou, who was concentrating on sucking the cat, raised her head: "What's going on?" Liu Wangxue said seriously: "Let's change our words and call me 'aunt', okay?"
"Why?"
"Because...because I am older." Liu Wangxue said.
“Are you as old as dad?”
"Almost." Liu Wangxue said, just a few years older, but about the same.
"Brother also calls you sister."
That's not because of you, Liu Wangxue thought to herself, she said, "How about you two change it together and call you 'auntie'." "
She really can't accept it. Her mother has become a grandma, and she is still a sister. Brother Shen doesn't correct the child. How bad is this poor generation.
Gu Xuelan and Shen Nianan came over with watermelons, and Jinghe brought cherry tomatoes.
Shen Nian'an saw Liu Wangxue's expression and asked, "What's wrong?"
"I asked him to change his name to aunt, but he refused." Liu Wangxue said.
“But, I like my sister.” Youyou’s chubby hands held the cat’s face, kissed it, and asked it, “You also like your sister, right?”
Children’s thinking is so frustrating sometimes.
Gu Xuelan said: "I call you young, isn't it good?"
Shen Nian'an smiled and said to Liu Wangxue, "It's okay, let him do whatever he likes."
Okay, Liu Wangxue called Jinghe, and the two of them moved two chairs out of the sun room.
Gu Xuelan added: "Ask Xiao Xu and Yun Kai. If they are not busy, ask them to come over." There are so many things on the table that they can't finish them all.
Of course Xiao Xu and Yun Kai were not busy. Within two minutes, they came over and brought a small gift to Youyou and Jinghe.
They are all imitation pendants, one blue gold gradient, one golden retriever, and two peach-faced peony parrots.
When he was going to the departure hall, he passed by a handicraft shop and Xu Qingsong took a fancy to these two at first sight. Seeing that he bought it, Du Yunkai couldn't go empty-handed, so he walked around the store and actually found the parrot pendant.
The two children were very happy to receive the gift. They compared it with the three others. Youyou said: "Brother, look, they are exactly the same!"
Du Yunkai looked at the two children and felt that they had not seen each other for a long time. I feel the sense of accomplishment of giving a gift, which is the real joy from the heart of the person who receives the gift.
Shen Nian'an thanked them and said, "Whatever is missing, I need to make up for. I don't know how many toy cats and dogs I have bought at home."
Xu Qingsong suddenly asked Shen Nian'an: "I see that these two children like small animals so much. Don't Brother Shen have any at home?"
Liu Wangxue also asked: "I heard from Jinghe that my sister-in-law seems to be allergic to animal hair?"
Shen Nian'an nodded: "Actually, we both like small animals. We were too busy at first, so Time to raise. Later, when I got a stable job, I planned to raise a border collie, but With the addition of Jinghe, the plan had to be put on hold temporarily.
After Jinghe was born, her physical condition changed a little and she became allergic to animal hair, so she never raised her.”
