Chapter 31: The Uninvited Guest
When Gu Nansheng returned to China, Gu Manman was helping Li's mother prepare dinner at home.
Mama Li didn't want her to do it, but she also knew that she was for Gu Nansheng. Then she went. What's more, Gu Manman's craftsmanship is not bad.
Hearing the doorbell ringing, Gu Manman, who was dressed in casual clothes at home and had his hair pulled into a ball, went to open the door in a hurry, and just opened it, "Brother!" He looked excited but suddenly froze.
Behind Gu Nansheng, another person standing, roommate Xiao Beihan.
"Miss Gu, I'm sorry, I just met Mr. Gu's invitation at the door! It's hard to be gracious, but it's coming! Xiao Beihan's tone was soft and difficult to see, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he smiled.
Gu Nansheng didn't speak, glanced at the person who came to open the door, and hummed lightly.
Mama Li, who walked out behind Gu Manman, didn't seem to see the embarrassed look of the three, smiled kindly, looked at Gu Manman's face, and then said in a kind tone: "Why are you standing at the door?" Come in, sit down and start eating! ”
Welcoming Gu Nansheng and Xiao Beihan in, Mama Li turned around and went to the kitchen, leaving Gu Manman, who was a little at a loss, and didn't know where to go.
Xiao Beihan looked at her flustered, and the smile on the corner of his mouth became more obvious.
Gu Nansheng was speechless in his heart, as soon as his car arrived at the door, he saw Xiao Beihan also coming, as if he was waiting there on purpose. Originally, it was just a polite invitation, but I didn't know that someone actually agreed to it, which was not polite at all.
"What are you doing standing? Come to the dining room, tonight's dishes are all prepared by Manman himself! Mama Li suddenly walked out of the dining room, looked at the three people with a strange atmosphere, deliberately looked at Xiao Beihan, and then her eyes drifted to the person who was standing opposite him and was a little cramped, and smiled a little knowingly.
Hearing this, Gu Man sighed lightly and imperceptibly, and then strode towards the dining room, "Okay, Mama Li, I'll help!" ”
I had never seen Gu Manman so homely, and a smug smile appeared on the corner of Xiao Beihan's mouth. A loose ball head, dressed in pink casual clothes, a little more girly, full of playfulness and cuteness.
"Come on, come on, eat more, eat more! It's all done in a long way. At the dinner table, Mama Li kept serving Xiao Beihan vegetables.
She could see that this person had a different look at Gu Manman in his eyes, and people who came over sometimes had such a strong intuition. Out of the habit she has cultivated in the Gu family for many years, she will not ask what the name is, which is rude. I can only keep adding vegetables for him to express my joy. Moreover, he didn't forget to sell him Gu Manman.
"Mama Li, this is Mr. Xiao." Somewhat helpless, Gu Manman opened his mouth gently.
"Don't dare, Mother Li just call me Beihan." Xiao Beihan's tone was rare and kind.
After listening to this name, Mama Li felt like she had heard it somewhere, and after thinking about it for a while, she felt that she had thought too much, just a name, but she was more satisfied, polite and courteous. Not bad!
Chen Chen on the side only lowered his head to eat, and Gu Nansheng didn't speak. Gu Manman had something in his heart, so he didn't speak. Only Xiao Beihan didn't seem to know the atmosphere in front of him, and he was talking to Mama Li while eating.
Mama Li was very happy, as if she was becoming more and more satisfied with him, but she kept glancing at Gu Manman.
After the meal was eaten in an extremely weird atmosphere, Chen Chen was left by Li's mother to help clean up, and Gu Nansheng was urged by Li's mother to wash and change clothes, so that he could rest early. Only Xiao Beihan and Gu Manman were left looking at each other awkwardly in the living room.
Chen Chen and Gu Nansheng naturally knew Mama Li's thoughts, but they didn't break it. Although I don't know how far those two people have developed, at least in their opinion, the situation in front of them is not bad. So they went about their own thing.
"You two go for a walk in the garden, take a walk, it's better to eat." Li's mother walked out again at this time, saying that she was going to eat, obviously to create an opportunity for the two of them to be alone.
"Good!" Glancing at Mama Li with a look of longing a little helplessly, Gu Manman motioned for Xiao Beihan to come with him.
Out of the living room to the left, is the Gu family's garden, because it is already autumn, only some autumn chrysanthemums are still blooming, the moonlight is shining, and the breeze carries an unknown fragrance. A picture of a beautiful scenery before the moon and flowers.
"Good workmanship!" Just as he didn't know how to speak, Xiao Beihan's approving voice came from behind him.
"Mr. Xiao praised it falsely!" With a polite tone, it came faintly.
Neither of them spoke for a while, but Xiao Beihan's heart had already turned several times. He suddenly felt that the woman in front of him must be very cute when she washed her hands and made soup.
"Can I ask you a question?" It seemed that after thinking about it for a long time, Gu Manman's voice finally came.
Knowing what she was thinking, Xiao Beihan said softly, "It's me!" ”
"Why?" Gu Manman was a little puzzled.
The atmosphere was a little quiet, only to hear Xiao Beihan sigh lightly, his purpose was so obvious, why didn't she know? After thinking for a while, he spoke softly, "Because someone is worried!" ”
Gu was stunned for a moment, but he didn't know how to answer next.
"Mr. Xiao, it's so late. I have to go to the company tomorrow, so I won't discuss work with you anymore. Gu Nansheng, who suddenly appeared, broke this embarrassment, and the three people under the moon stood quietly.
Glancing at someone who was in a trance, Xiao Beihan replied lightly: "Okay!" immediately followed Gu Nansheng out of the Gu family.
Standing in the garden for a while, thinking that I don't know if Gu Nansheng, who suddenly appeared, heard that sentence, Gu Manman returned to the living room. saw Mama Li staring at the coffee table.
"Mama Li." Gu Manman gently called her.
"Why do I feel so familiar?" Mother Li didn't seem to hear it, and was still muttering to herself.
Seeing her like this, Gu Manman had to open his mouth again, "Mother Li." ”
"Huh? Alas! Alas ~ long. Mama Li came back to her senses and looked at the woman standing beside her.
After carefully looking Gu Manman up and down for a while, Mama Li opened her mouth with a smile, "Manman, tell me, who is he?" What is your relationship? ”
Hearing Li's mother's question, her heart jumped, and a look of anger appeared on her face, "It's just the people of the cooperative company, the partner." Mama Li, don't think too much about it. ”
Hearing this answer, Mama Li smiled and said nothing, with an unclear look in her eyes.
"Okay, I didn't think much about it, you go and rest, you have to go to the company tomorrow." Mother Li began to urge Gu Manman to rest.
Glancing at Mama Li's expression with some uncertainty, Gu Manman went upstairs and went back to the room.
The expression on Mama Li's face behind her fell into some kind of memory, the more she thought about it, the more she felt that the name Xiao Beihan was familiar, she should have heard it, "Where have you heard it?" Where? Thinking about it, he walked towards his room.
