Ding junqi looked at Le Tian who had walked away and pressed his hands under his neck. If the big boss was not anxious, why was he, the second boss, so anxious?
When Ye Cong returned to the village, it was already completely dark.
Xin Ya had been waiting at the door with the big cotton-padded jacket her mother had given her, but she waited from morning to afternoon, from afternoon to evening, and still did not come back.
Could she have gone back?
“Sister, are you still waiting for brother-in-law?”Xin Miao came out of the house and jumped in front of Xin Ya. She said with a smile, finally being able to call her brother-in-law openly.
“What nonsense are you talking about?”Xin Ya glared at her sister, her face slightly red.
Fortunately, it was night now, so others could not see clearly.
Xin Miao pursed her lips slightly. Just as she was about to say something, she saw Ye Cong, who was not far away, gesturing at her. Xin Miao immediately understood and turned to look at Xin Ya. “Mother told me to call you. She said that she had something to ask you.”
“Ah?”Xin Ya looked at her sister. She was curious as to what her mother wanted her to do, but she did not doubt her sister’s words at all.
Xin Miao saw Xin ya turn around and enter the house, so she hurriedly ran over and whispered, “Brother-in-law.”
Ye Cong felt that other than Xin ya, everyone in the Xin family was smart. He did not know how that girl had grown up to be so natural.
Ye Cong handed the cake in his hand to Xin Miao. “Hide this first.”
“Understood. Brother-in-law, quickly go in. My Sister has been waiting for you all day,”Xin Miao said with a smile as she carefully held the cake in her hand.
Birthdays didn’t exist in the concept of a country bumpkin, so mother didn’t think about celebrating her sister’s birthday today.
But it was different when brother-in-law came. Their County’s cake shop wouldn’t open during the new year, so brother-in-law must have gone to the city.
Sigh —
It would be great if she could find someone like brother-in-law in the future.
Xin Miao quietly entered the house alone and put the cake in the corner of the kitchen.
Ye Cong came back with some fruits besides the cake because he realized that there were no fruits in the new house.
Xin Ya felt excited but embarrassed to speak when she saw Ye Cong come back. The way he looked made people feel comfortable.
Ye Cong looked away from Xin Ya and put the fruits on the table. “I just came down from the mountain today, so I drove out to buy some fruits. It’s cold, so I can buy more time.”
“You went to the city?”Xin Ya cried out in surprise. It had only been a day, and he still had to go up the mountain. No wonder he came back so late.
Ye Cong knew that she was absolutely shocked not because he went to the city to buy fruits, but because he did not bring her along.
Otherwise, why did she look so upset?
Ye Cong reached over and touched her head to make sure that she was no longer hot.
“How expensive are the fruits these days? Why did you buy these?”Xin Ya’s mother looked at the table full of fruits and felt her heart ache. How much did these fruits add up to?
Xin Ya’s hands landed on Ye Cong’s arms. She tiptoed and looked back. Apples, bananas, fire dragon fruits, kiwi grapes, and mangoes. Such a big bag was estimated to cost 300 to 400 yuan. No wonder her mother felt her heart ache.
However, thinking about how ye Cong spent over 10,000 yuan on a night in a hotel, a few hundred yuan was really not considered money.
“Auntie, it’s not much. It’s good for your health to eat more fruits,”ye Cong said and looked down at Xin Ya. “When I came back, I saw some regular deliveries at the fruit store. Do you have them in Your County?”
Xin Ya blinked and grabbed ye Cong’s arm. She smiled at her parents more unsightly than she cried, then dragged Ye Cong back to his room.
