"No, we don't know him!" Chen Pingping's face turned ugly. The word 'Nangong' was a thorn in her heart. She had been away from the Nangong family for several years, but in the past two days, she had been involved with the Nangong family one after another.
She didn't like this, she didn't like having anything to do with the Nangong family anymore.
"That's right, we really don't know him. Let's eat." Chu Bai didn't explain anything to Liu Caiyi. He knew that Chen Pingping was taboo about the word Nangong, so he simply didn't mention it.
Although Liu Caiyi was confused, she couldn't ask any more questions when she saw Chen Pingping's ugly face and Chu Bai shaking his head and smiling bitterly.
"Huh? The mashed potatoes are so soft and fragrant. Principal Chen's craftsmanship is great!" After Liu Caiyi took a bite of the mashed potatoes, she found that the mashed potatoes actually melted in the mouth, with a special freshness and sweetness. She didn't expect it.
This simple potato can actually taste so delicious.
"Yes, yes, Caiyi, this taro is more delicious if you eat it, and this egg custard is delicious." Tian Dongdong stuffed her mouth full, and was very afraid that someone would grab the same thing as her, although she
She knew it was rude to eat like this at someone else's house, but these dishes tasted so good. She had never eaten ordinary dishes that were so special and delicious before.
"This is all Chu Bai's craftsmanship, not mine. I said Chu Bai is very capable. How about it? His cooking is also very good, right?" Chen Pingping finally showed a hint of pride and praised.
He glanced at Chu Bai.
"Ah? Are these dishes made by people from Chu Shen? Oh my god, Caiyi, I find that I regret it again!" Tian Dongdong winked at Liu Caiyi and said.
"Don't talk nonsense." Liu Caiyi was very embarrassed. This Tian Dongdong dared to say anything.
"What do you regret?" Chen Pingping became curious and asked with a smile.
"No, it's nothing. Brother Chu is indeed a capable person." Liu Caiyi also praised Chu Bai and glanced at Chu Bai secretly.
Chu Bai was dumbfounded by these three women at this time. Chen Pingping only praised him for his ability in front of outsiders. He knew Chen Pingping's little thoughts, but Tian Dongdong, a girl like Chu Shenren, called him
It was particularly weird, and Liu Caiyi had actually peeked at her affectionately just now. That kind of praise definitely came from the heart.
He suddenly discovered that being praised by several women was also a kind of torture.
Fortunately, the girls ate quickly. In just ten minutes, breakfast was over, and Liu Caiyi and Tian Dongdong also stood up to say goodbye.
Although Liu Caiyi wanted to stay with Chu Bai for a while, she found that there was no reason to stay here, so she could only say goodbye with some disappointment.
On the other hand, Chen Pingping, after sending Liu Caiyi and Tian Dongdong away, immediately stared at Chu Bai and shouted: "Chu Shenren recruited the real people and actually brought the girl home. It's really embarrassing."
"Sister, it's just a coincidence. I still have something to discuss with you." Chu Bai was not stupid. He knew that if he explained to Chen Pingping, it would be endless, so he immediately changed the subject and said: "Sister, how many days do I have to go out?
Days, ten days at the latest and one week at the fastest!”
"What?" After hearing Chu Bai's words, Chen Pingping threw away all the curiosity in his heart. He stood up nervously and said anxiously: "You are going out, where are you going? Are you leaving?"
"No." After Chu Bai saw Chen Pingping so nervous, he suddenly took a step forward, held Chen Pingping's hand, patted it and said: "I want to go out to practice, and it's not far from Nan'an City. In a few days
Just come back."
"Then I'll go with you." Chen Pingping said with a hint of grievance and stubbornness, but more of a reluctance.
Chu Bai sighed softly in his heart, could this Chen Pingping really start to like him?
"Sister, that place is not suitable for girls to go there, and I need peace and quiet to practice. You can just wait at home for me to come back. It's really only a few days."
"Then you keep your word, and it must not exceed ten days." Although Chen Pingping was anxious, he also knew that Chu Bai had his own things to do, and she couldn't stay by force, so he had no choice but to compromise.
"Well, it will definitely not last more than ten days. I will pack my things and leave. If anything happens to you during these few days at home, just call Zeng Hong. I saved his life, and this person is trustworthy."
Chu Bai was really worried about leaving Chen Pingping alone at home.
It seems that Chen Pingping has encountered a lot of troubles after meeting her. The Han family and the Nangong family are now involved in her because of her involvement. Therefore, if she leaves, the Han family or Nangong will come to find her.
When her family came to find her, she couldn't handle it as a woman.
"Well, I know, you have to be careful. I'll help you pack your things, and then we go to the supermarket." After Chen Pingping figured it out, he stood up immediately. Chu Bai went out to practice, which was equivalent to traveling far away, so
She wanted to help Chu Bai bring some daily necessities.
"Okay." Chu Bai nodded with a smile, and then followed Chen Pingping into his room.
Chen Pingping found a large suitcase, then got a set of clothes for Chu Bai, and then took two sets of men's underwear, folded them neatly and put them in the box. She was very careful and serious, even folding them
There was no embarrassment or pretense when wearing men's underwear. She seemed to be helping her husband pack his luggage, with a woman's nagging and nagging.
"You should change your underwear at least every three days. In fact, I suggest you change it once a day. If it's dirty, you don't need to wash it. You can just put it in the grocery bag and I will wash it when you bring it back. Also, don't catch a cold when you sleep at night. I will give it to you."
You brought mosquito repellent, and I'll give you my unused mobile phone in a moment.
If you need anything, just call me and I'll drive to you. I also have the decoction for treating your leg injury. You must drink it on time every day. Well, I'll think about it again." Chen Pingping turned his back.
Chu Bai told her everything she could think of, but Chu Bai just leaned against the door and looked at her.
This was the first time that he had been cared for by a woman so meticulously, even to the point of changing his underwear every few days, so at this moment he suddenly wanted to give Chen Pingping a hug, just a hug.
After Chen Pingping thought for a while and found that nothing was left behind, he turned around and said: "Well, the next step is food. Let's go to the supermarket. I will buy you enough food for ten days. Save money."
You have been hungry for ten more days, and I feel sad when I see you!"
"Sister." Chu Bai suddenly called her.
"Huh?" Chen Pingping, who was carrying a suitcase, raised his head in confusion.
"Thank you!" Chu Bai opened his arms and said with a shy smile, "I said I wanted to hug you, will you scold me?"
"Uh." Chen Pingping was stunned, his face instantly turned red, and he cursed: "Of course you scold me, why don't you scold me? Just hug me, you're not an outsider!" After rolling her eyes, she actually put down her suitcase and took the initiative to give it to her.
Chu Bai held her in his arms and hugged her tightly.
Chu Bai gently hugged her waist. He didn't know why. It seemed that words of gratitude could no longer replace the feeling in his heart, so he just wanted to hug her. He had no evil desires or bad thoughts. He just wanted to hug her.
Just a hug.
"Look at how skinny you are, I will cook for you when you come back and make delicious food for you every day." Chen Pingping whispered in his ear, very nervously, his voice was very low, and his body seemed to be shaking slightly as he spoke.
"Yes." Chu Bai took a deep breath of the fragrance emanating from Chen Pingping's long hair, and nodded heavily: "Let's go."
"Wait a minute!" Chen Pingping did not let go of him, but continued to hug him, his voice still trembling: "Do you want to say goodbye to me? Are you going to leave and never come back?"
"No, I will definitely be back within ten days, maybe even earlier!" Chu Bai affirmed.
"Then why are you hugging me?" Chen Pingping said with a blushing face.
"Me." Chu Bai didn't know what to say. Did he say that he just wanted to hug her? Or did he say that he had begun to like you as a woman?
"What are you doing, little devil, let's go!" Chen Pingping pinched Chu Bai's waist, as if she guessed what Chu Bai was thinking. Before Chu Bai finished speaking, she took the initiative to let go of him and picked up Chu Bai.
Just take the suitcase and leave.
Chu Bai followed him, went downstairs together, and then went to the supermarket together.
Two hours later, Chen Pingping sent Chu Bai to the western suburbs and drove away. At the same time, Chu Bai also strode towards Xishan Cemetery.
But just seven or eight minutes later, Chen Pingping's car appeared again at the intersection where the two parted, but Chu Bai's figure was gone, while Chen Pingping was absent-minded, lost, indescribable, and painful.
She suddenly lay in the car and started crying.
Yes, she cried, crying with grievance and hesitation.
She didn't know what was wrong with her. When she brought Chu Bai home, she clearly regarded him as a younger brother, but why did she change her mind? Why was she so happy when he was around? So happy and safe?
She even found a feeling of being in love when she was in college. She felt that she was young again. She felt that she didn't want to grow up or get old. She felt that she had regained her youth again. Even every time she appeared in front of him, she would secretly
Look in the mirror, tidy yourself up, and try to show your best side in front of him.
The joy and longing to have him by her side made her have the urge many times, just like when Chu Bai wanted to hug her in the morning. Why didn't she want to hug Chu Bai?
It's just that she is afraid, afraid of her own fate, afraid that she will harm Chu Bai, and even more afraid that Chu Bai will not like her at all. Also, she is afraid of her past and age.
It's okay to be a sister, she is older than him, so it's normal. But what about being a lover? Can he accept it? Can he accept the fact that he is a widow?
Although... although she is not a real widow, her reputation as a widow has already spread throughout the world. If Chu Bai really has something to do with her, can he accept the criticism behind her?
So she cried. She didn't know what to do. She really wanted to be good to him and wanted to keep him, but she also found that she had no reason, not even a far-fetched reason.
There was a "ding" sound. At this moment, the text message alert on the mobile phone held by Chen Pingping rang. When Chen Pingping looked over subconsciously, he found that it was actually from Chu Bai: "Don't be afraid of losing it. Cry alone."
, go back to class quickly, I’m leaving, and you’re not allowed to turn around and come back again.”
