Chapter 8 It hurts a little(1/5)
(Good guys~ It’s the end of the month, I’m going to update the third update today and beg to clear my monthly tickets! There will be another chapter tonight!)
What does it mean to call east and west?
He only answered half of the questions Mu Hongyan asked and used the other half to lead to a new topic.
Didn't you ask me about my attire, and didn't you mention the army? Hey, I'll just pick out the ones you're interested in talking about.
Borrowing a military-related joke, Mu Hongyan continued to chat with him about past events.
Mu Hongyan had some objections to Li Xuewu, but for some reason, he became happy while chatting.
After Li Xuewu talked about his past, his mischief when he was young and ignorant, his life in the army and his growth during the war, and then some bad things that happened in the unit after work.
Mu Hongyan was filled with emotion as he listened to this mental journey. The story of the prodigal son turning back will always stir people's hearts.
So when Li Xuewu told some rumors and slanders in the work unit, and when someone even wrote a report letter to slander him, Mu Hongyan also frowned a little.
"Actually, the two people you saw that day, one is from our courtyard and the other is her coworker. They are both from the same workshop and help me manage the guest house."
Li Xuewu prepared for a long time before talking about the unpleasantness at the guest house that day.
"One is a widow with three children, and the other is a domestic abuser whose husband is away from home all year round. The reports and messages that slander me are about them."
"so"
Mu Hongyan narrowed his eyes and asked, "Do you have that kind of relationship with them?"
"Haha, what do you think?"
Li Xuewu chuckled and said, "Do you know why Xiao Ning is angry?"
Still did not answer Mu Hongyan directly, but used another question to make a twist.
"Because many female friends I met before joining the army gave me gifts."
Mu Hongyan glanced at Li Xuewu, then looked in the direction of the restaurant, and then he understood why today's return was so unusual.
Thinking of the little girls Li Xuewu mentioned, hearing what he said and the two women he saw that day, and remembering that the nanny he saw on the wedding day was still a girl, Mu Hongyan felt as if he had misunderstood him.
"Then I went to find you, why didn't you tell me?"
"You believe what I said?"
Li Xuewu still didn't answer, but just asked a rhetorical question and pushed Mu Hongyan up.
Mu Hongyan was also a little confused.
Yes, he went away angrily. Even if Li Xuewu denied it, would he believe it?
"Oh~ what I said is, work matters should be dealt with by work, and family matters should be dealt with by family. This is the truth."
Li Xuewu took the teapot and refilled Mu Hongyan's tea, and explained: "Even if I explained it clearly to you that day, it was still the result of the quarrel, which caused harm to my work and the harm to those two comrades.
It is inevitable, and the gain outweighs the loss.”
"So you admit it?"
Mu Hongyan stared at Li Xuewu and asked, "Aren't you afraid that I will tell Xiao Ning, or that I will tell my family and make you break up?"
"Not afraid"
Li Xuewu smiled and said confidently: "I don't believe you didn't tell Xiao Ning, and I don't believe you didn't tell your mother, but look at it, isn't it good now?"
"Are you so confident?"
Mu Hongyan was not ashamed that Li Xuewu had seen through her informant, but was surprised by Li Xuewu's confidence.
Is it because he dislikes Xiao Ning? Or is he disdainful of families like theirs.
This kid has a criminal record, and it was because of this that he rejected his family.
"I'm not confident"
Li Xuewu shook his head and said: "But my uncle was "picked up" by my mother on the hospital bed, and my husband was "robbed" by Xiao Ning in the war. It was because of their self-confidence."
"Hey~~ you are so eloquent"
Although Mu Hongyan was convinced by Li Xuewu's words, he still felt that what Li Xuewu said was a bit... disgusting.
Li Xuewu smiled nonchalantly and said: "Family, we understand each other. We didn't know each other before, so it's normal for you to have misunderstandings about me. I also have to say that you are a good sister-in-law for being able to protect your sister-in-law.
”.
After quietly putting on the top hat for Mu Hongyan, Li Xuewu smiled again but said in a very formal tone: "Thank you, sister-in-law."
Li Xuewu used several sets of five consecutive whips in a gentle and elegant manner and immediately gave Mu Hongyan a hard time, which made him feel embarrassed.
"You really don't think of me as your sister-in-law."
Mu Hongyan scolded Li Xuewu and said, "You didn't even have time to make a phone call afterwards? That person came to the hospital in a hurry, what do you want us to think?"
"Yes, yes"
Li Xuewu smiled and nodded, saying: "I didn't think about it at the time. I didn't expect that someone would still care about me, a person with a big scar on my face, and someone who reported to the organization that I was planning to get married. It was a miscalculation."
"Longer your memory"
Mu Hongyan got the step deliberately given by Li Xuewu and said: "You don't have to take a look at what kind of cadre you are. You think your face is ugly. Who knows who dares to think you are ugly? In addition, the person you cultivated in the past
Such magnanimity, no little girl would think twice about it."
"Yes, yes"
Li Xuewu nodded and said: "I didn't expect that I was so good. When I was with Xiao Ning, I was worried that she and her colleagues didn't want to introduce me. After experiencing it, I also know that I have to stick to my heart and be sensible about right and wrong."
Mu Hongyan did not feel that Li Xuewu's words were wrong at all. On the contrary, he admired Li Xuewu's ability to alert him.
Li Xuewu's words brought up Gu Ning's feelings, and he didn't introduce his colleagues at the hospital several times.
In addition, those who went to the wedding this time did not recognize Li Xuewu when they met. This must be because Li Xuewu was overthinking it.
"Hey~ You're still talking about it!"
Mu Hongyan persuaded in a low voice: "Those in our department all like to gossip. You also know Xiao Ning's character. She doesn't like to talk to them. If I hadn't said that I had to ask for a favor, otherwise she wouldn't have asked.
”.
After speaking, Li Xuewu nodded: "Our colleague is like that. It's not because of your scars that he didn't introduce you, but because Xiao Ning didn't care about their attitude. Whose driver did he think you were when I saw you last time? Xiao Ning didn't know.
You didn't ask me to explain, but you deliberately made them angry!"
"That's right!"
Li Xuewu laughed along with Mu Hongyan and said: "Then I will have to pick up Xiao Ning from get off work. One day is enough for me."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "I'll break it to you~"
After chatting with Li Xuewu for such a long time, asking and talking, the relationship between the two has returned to what it was before.
Mu Hongyan even felt embarrassed because of the "misunderstanding", but she was much nicer to Li Xuewu. Now the two of them were drinking tea on the sofa, talking and laughing.
But when Gu Ning pouted and followed Ding Fengxia out of the restaurant, Mu Hongyan said jokingly to Gu Ning: "Look, what can you do if you go home a little late and make him panic?"
What should I do if I get bumped?"
After saying that, he pulled the pouting sister-in-law to sit down, and then advised: "These men are all big-hearted. When going out, dressing up and down is a woman's face, so you have to be careful."
Gu Ning is so angry!
I was told by my mother just now in the restaurant.
You shouldn't be chasing after Li Xuewu, you shouldn't bully Li Xuewu, you shouldn't have a cold war with Li Xuewu, you shouldn't...
Good guy, my mother didn’t tell her anything specific, she just gave her an education.
When she came out, her sister-in-law, who had a problem with Li Xuewu, was worried that she and Li Xuewu would quarrel in the living room, but when they came out, they were talking and laughing.
Not to mention this, my sister-in-law started talking about her again!
What did this person say to her mother and sister-in-law?
When Gu Ning looked at Li Xuewu angrily...
Hey hey hey! Look! Why are you like this again!
I saw Li Xuewu looking aggrieved and distressed when Mu Hongyan was talking about Gu Ning, and looking at him with slightly worried eyes.
Okay, seeing Li Xuewu like this, Mu Hongyan took her sister-in-law and started talking about how to match a man's clothes, how to organize his clothes, what to wear in which season...
Seeing her uncle like this, Ding Fengxia also held Li Xuewu's hand distressedly and expressed her condolences. From time to time, she would glare at her daughter when Mu Hongyan was talking.
What happened!
When he first entered the house, his mother and sister-in-law were standing at the door to welcome him!
Why did this happen for just a moment? It’s all my fault!
"You are so insidious!"
On the way back to the courtyard, Gu Ning glared at the proud Li Xuewu angrily and said, "You are a child! You know how to complain!"
"Hehehe~"
Li Xuewu didn't argue with Gu Ning either. She just smiled no matter what she said. Anyway, she got the advantage.
To be continued...
