385. The Little Woman Who Makes Men Speechless
At the dining table on the first floor, Catherine was sitting next to Chen Rui, Chen Chuan and Chi Yanran were sitting opposite them, and Wang Li sat on the other side of Chen Rui. Because Catherine was present, the few people lost their usual freedom Ye Xiaofan was not at home. There were a lot of things in the police station these two days. This group of people in the Middle East had just been cleaned up, and there must be a series of things next, so she didn't have time to take a vacation for the time being.
The French dinner at this table was fragrant. Catherine smiled, holding a long-handled spoon in her hand, drinking the soup, and only her knife and fork were placed in front of her. This was also her habit. She did not make any sound when she was eating, and she sat very elegantly, with a standard aristocratic etiquette. Even when drinking the soup, she did not make a crisp sound when the spoon and the bowl collided, let alone the sound in her mouth, everything was perfect.
Chen Rui glanced at her and shook his head and said, "Miss Catherine, since your goal is to follow the local customs, you might as well learn to use our chopsticks, so that it will be considered a bit like that. Moreover, our family is just an ordinary family in Shanghai, very ordinary, and you don't have to show such standard aristocratic etiquette. It seems to be a bit of a big deal, and even I feel a little tired."
Catherine put down the spoon in her hand, finally reached out to take the pair of chopsticks handed over by Wang Li, and said softly: "I remember saying that I am very principled. No matter what I am interested in, the things I am interested in will not be a whim. This etiquette is the same. For me, it is not something that someone forced me to learn, but something I am really interested in, so I will stick to it. No matter where I am or who I eat with, I am in this state. As for chopsticks, I can accept it. This is also part of Chinese food culture. I am very interested."
Chen Rui glanced at her and stopped talking to this woman. She was always so powerful. At this time, she did not forget to express her determination again. This was said in English. So Chi Yanran looked anxious and wanted to know what the two were communicating, but she was not able to understand, so she could only glance at Chen Rui and Catherine, and then lowered her head to eat with a little helplessness.
At this moment, the phone at Chen Rui's home rang. He looked at Catherine first, smiled slightly, then pulled open the chair and sat on the sofa. Indirectly, Tang Wan's calm greeting came from the phone. Finally, when he heard Chen Rui's voice, he complained directly: "Chen Rui, why are you so ignorant? Aren't you not allowed you to walk around privately? You are so upset, you ran out of the hospital directly, and what's so annoying is that why did you turn off your phone? Come back soon, even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about it. I don't want you to have any accidents. Why do I do temporarily regain your relationship with you? I will give you a limited time of half an hour, go out immediately. No matter what method you use, you must come back, otherwise I will call Aunt Chi directly. Your body is not iron-clad, and the earth will still turn away if you leave you."
Chen Rui was speechless and had a bit of an iron lady, but the taste of her words was clearly that she was really nervous. Of course, she didn't really want to tell Chi Yanran about this, otherwise she wouldn't have been that gentle voice at the beginning, and she couldn't be sure whether Chen Rui was just at home.
"I understand, I'll come here soon. I had some urgent matters just now, so I forgot to turn on the phone after I turned off the phone and came back. But I said it again. I know my own situation. Don't worry, I'm fine, not as weak as you thought." Chen Rui answered her words with a little obscure way. This kind of thing is really too transparent at home.
Tang Wan snorted and said, "What do you know? Everything has to be spoken by data. Qinglan's report has come out. If you are just like someone who is injured, going out now is like seeking death. You are better and driving your car away. I don't know what you think, are you a human or an iron man? Anyway, it's right to come back soon. If you continue, I will send two people to your house to get people."
The more she said, she became more and more anxious, and she even felt a little excited when she spoke. She seemed to be really anxious for Chen Rui. Chen Rui could only agree with her a few words calmly, and then she smiled and said, "Okay, it'll be over soon, but you always have to let me finish the meal? It's not easy to come back. There are so many things happening recently. I haven't had time to stay with my parents for a home-cooked meal for a long time. Just give me twenty minutes of leisure time. After I finish eating, I'll leave immediately."
Tang Wan snorted, and finally softened her voice and responded softly: "Okay, I'm not such an unreasonable person. You will probably stay in the hospital for a while now. I think Uncle Chen and Aunt Chi may miss you, so you can have a meal with them first, but you have to come back immediately after the meal. Also, don't be too fierce when eating."
"It seems that I have never been so fierce in my meals? I remember when I was at home, it seemed that some people were much more powerful than me." Chen Rui was speechless. With Tang Wan's spirit of eating, she was really fierce. Most people really couldn't compare with her. She now forgot about her own affairs.
Tang Wan was embarrassed, and her always cheerful voice showed a hint of tenderness, and she said a little embarrassedly: "Okay, anyway, after I finished saying it, then hang up the phone, just do what I said, I was stronger than you in the past, but how long have you not seen me? How could you know that I am still like that now?"
After saying that, she hung up the phone casually. Chen Rui heard a beep sound, and a warm feeling appeared in his heart. He slowly hung up the phone. Finally, he let out a long sigh. Tang Wan's attitude has really changed a lot. Could it be that she is not so fierce now? However, with her tone of speaking and the movements when she hung up the phone, she could not see any changes. It was still the straightforward Tang Wan, only she would say whatever she wanted, and she was very polite.
After adjusting the heat in his heart, Chen Rui sat back to the dining table. Fortunately, Tang Wan agreed to him and gave him some time to have lunch, otherwise this French meal would not be able to eat. Thinking about it, it would be a heart-warming French meal.
"Son, who came here for the phone call? Why does it sound so mysterious?" Chi Yanran put down her chopsticks and asked in confusion.
Chen Rui shook his head lightly: "It's nothing, there's something urgent in the company. I'll rush back to Miss Catherine after dinner. In the afternoon, you'll have a rest at home. If you have something, I'll stay with you in two days. These days, you'll get used to this ordinary day. If you have something, my mother will accompany you." After saying that, he sighed and changed his mind: "There was something that I had to discuss with you. Now it seems that I can only change the time. Anyway, you have to stay in China for a while."
At this time, Catherine was holding chopsticks in her hand, and Chi Yanran kept explaining some tricks for her. She got started very quickly, and after a while she looked quite good. Her expression was really a little bit. It was no longer an aristocratic posture, but a girlish feeling, quite joyful and smug.
Hearing Chen Rui's words, Chen Chuan and Catherine raised their heads at the same time. Both of them looked at him deeply, but Chen Chuan felt relieved, while Catherine was a little ambiguous, as if she thought Chen Rui was playing some ambiguous activities. But from this point, it can be seen that this woman is really not simple. When she heard Chen Rui's words, she knew that he was lying.
"Well, if you have something to do, you can tell me when you come back tonight. Of course, if you have any embarrassment to say in front of me, you can also email me or send a text message. I don't care. As long as you think it's convenient, I will stay at your house for a few days in the past two days. If you have something to do, I can go out alone. Anyway, it's not the first time I've been to Shanghai. A city alone will be another kind of beauty."
Chi Yanran responded immediately, raised her eyebrows, and finally clapped her hands and said, "Catherine, don't be negative, Chen Rui doesn't have time, and I'll accompany you out for a walk, and I'll make sure you can see something that truly has traditional Chinese culture. Although my English is not good, your Chinese is really good. I think there is no problem with our communication."
Catherine agreed with a smile, smiled tooth and held Chi Yanran's hand together. It smelled very close. Chen Rui breathed a sigh of relief. He looked at Xiao Wang Li on the side and whispered in her ear: "Wang Li, if there is something wrong in the future, you don't have to spend time at home. It's important to do it. Take good care of yourself in the past two days."
Wang Li nodded slightly, his eyes turned around Chi Yanran and Catherine, and he stuck out his tongue and whispered: "Brother, don't worry, I know what to do. Besides, in my opinion, my brother's business is the main business. The hamburger restaurant business doesn't matter day by day anyway. At worst, I won't make so much money. My ideal is not to make too much money."
