Throughout the afternoon, the four of them chatted leisurely while packing up and preparing for the evening meal. The TV was also turned on, and they watched each other without a glance. Mrs. Bao seemed to be the main force in preparing the dinner. Feng Nan and Lao Bao
At first, she planned to help, but Mrs. Bao kicked her out because she was clumsy. Wu Juan also went to help, but she was not a handy woman either. Mrs. Bao scolded her, "How can I get married in the future?"
When Lao Bao heard this, he laughed and said, "I'm still worried about getting married, but my boyfriend is handsome and rich."
Wu Juan also laughed after hearing this, but Feng Nan noticed that when she smiled, there was a flash of worry between her eyebrows. It seemed that she was not sure about her boyfriend Chu Yan.
Such a busy and joyful afternoon passed quickly. First, Zhou Zhengling brought her son to the appointment, which suddenly added a lot of life to the room. After all, most women have a natural motherhood regardless of whether they are married or not.
Wu Juan and Mrs. Bao competed to hug Bai Bai and tease him, while Zhou Zhengling had time to quietly ask Feng Nan: "What on earth is going on? Such a big pomp." She was not familiar with Wu Juan and Lao Bao.
, hence this question.
Feng Nan smiled and said, "Let's talk about it later during dinner."
"Pretend to be mysterious." Zhou Zhengling muttered, and at the same time felt relieved. It seemed that she was not in trouble that day because she spoke freely.
Su Ran and Tang Junxia arrived a little later, but a few minutes earlier than the agreed time. It seems that everyone is punctual.
When everyone arrived, everyone sat around the table. Mrs. Bao asked Feng Nan to accompany the guests. She was still busy in the kitchen, while Lao Bao and Wu Juan took turns to serve as waiters. Su Ran smiled and said: "Nowadays, we usually treat guests.
I rarely experience this feeling since I eat out all the time.”
Feng Nan said: "I originally just wanted to let everyone try my craftsmanship, but I didn't expect that I would have to trouble my sister-in-law."
Lao Bao was very happy to see everyone, and he felt quite proud, as if he was treating the guests today. He said with a smile: "She is a neighbor, and she is used to being busy. If she is not busy, she will feel uncomfortable all over."
At this time, Mrs. Bao happened to bring a dish of soup herself. When she heard what Lao Bao said, she retorted: "I'm not that mean. I'm just helping Xiao Feng. In fact, I'd rather not do anything one day and let him do it."
You are taking care of me."
Everyone laughed, and Wu Juan added: "Actually, Sister-in-law Bao, I don't think this day will be far away. Your Xiaolong is so smart and good at studying. He will definitely have a big future in the future."
As soon as Mrs. Bao was praised by someone for her son, she immediately became energetic, and immediately started bragging about her own son again. It wasn't until she smelled the smell of batter coming from the kitchen that she screamed and ran back, making everyone laugh again.
Not long after, Mrs. Bao also came to the table, and everyone was there. After all, Feng Nan was the host today, so she was pushed out to make the opening remarks. Feng Nan didn't say anything special, it was just a normal dinner opening remarks, and then
Everyone started eating and drinking with cups and plates, which was no different from a normal family gathering. After drinking for three rounds, Su Ran couldn't stand it anymore, but she couldn't ask questions herself, so she secretly kicked Tang Junxia's feet under the table.
The two of them had actually discussed it before going out, so they understood immediately and asked with a smile: "Xiao Nan, what's going on with this sudden invitation to dinner for no reason? You're not telling us that you're getting married, right?"
"
Everyone laughed after hearing this, and Feng Nan also smiled and said: "What kind of marriage are you getting? It's more like having a dizzy head."
Mrs. Bao said: "Speaking of which, it's time for Xiao Feng to find one. You see, guys your age have had several girlfriends."
When everyone was talking about this topic, Zhou Zhengling seemed a little uncomfortable, because she knew in her heart that it was not easy for Feng Nan to find a girlfriend due to her own drag. In addition, she did not want Feng Nan to find a girlfriend.
, because once Feng Nan finds a girlfriend, she may not have enough energy to take care of their mother and son. Although her thoughts are selfish, they are real.
Feng Nan was already smiling, took a chopstick and put the fish-flavored shredded pork into his mouth, chewed and tasted it, and then said to Mrs. Bao: "Sister-in-law, your fish-flavored shredded pork is really authentic, better than the ones in restaurants outside."
There are many.”
Mrs. Bao was praised by him and said happily: "Of course, no one in the hotel would be willing to use such low-quality ingredients."
Feng Nan turned to Su Ran and Tang Junxia and said, "We have a good relationship as neighbors."
Su Ran smiled and said: "Of course, I think Brother Bao and Sister-in-law Bao are just like brothers and sisters to you."
After hearing this, Wu Juan hurriedly asked: "What about me?"
Feng Nan said: "Just like my little sister."
Wu Juan grinned, obviously very satisfied.
Feng Nan added: "As the saying goes, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. Although I, Feng Nan, have always been unlucky, I am lucky enough to meet these good neighbors. To be honest, I don't want to lose you. So, Brother Bao and Sister-in-law Bao, unless
It's because you have a better place to go, so don't mention the move again."
Lao Bao and his wife did not expect that he would talk about this topic first. In fact, if you think about it, playing mahjong is originally a matter of accepting a bet and accepting defeat. What they did was indeed inappropriate. Bao's sister-in-law refused to speak out of shame, but for Lao Bao
He hurriedly said: "If you don't want to move, why don't you move to such a good place?" without any rebuttal.
Tang Junxia didn't know what happened in the past few days, so she asked without knowing what was going on: "What? You want to move? Okay, what are you moving?"
Lao Bao said again: "I won't move anymore. I just said one or two angry words at that time."
Wu Juan also said: "Actually, this is all my fault."
Tang Junxia even felt that there was gossip and asked with interest: "Hey, what's wrong with you?"
Wu Juan was about to speak, but Feng Nan said first: "We'll talk about this later. In fact, I'm inviting everyone here today. Firstly, I want to get together and have a meal, and secondly, I want to make something clear because some things have happened these days.
, let me think about some things over and over again, and suddenly I felt that I was actually quite stupid. If this person is too obsessed with the past, he will not be able to start a new life. I figured it out, people should
Look forward.”
Su Ran said: "Yeah, don't we all have to look forward? Yesterday I discussed with Jun Xia to see if I could help you find something fixed to do in a while..."
Feng Nan said: "Of course it's good to find something suitable to do. Who doesn't want to be comfortable and stable? But before that, you and I also have something to say."
Su Ran said: "If you have anything to say, just say it. We have been friends for many years. Is there anything we can't say?"
Tang Junxia also echoed: "Yes, if you need anything, tell us and we will definitely help you if we can."
Feng Nan said: "When it comes to helping, I'm afraid you'd better ask me to help you."
Su Ran had a ghost in his heart, but when Feng Nan said this, his heartbeat inevitably accelerated, but he calmed down and said: "Actually, I wanted to say it a long time ago, Xiao Nan, when I received your call that day..."
Feng Nan waved his hand to stop him from continuing, and then said slowly: "There is no need to explain this, I can understand it. And it is natural no matter how you look at it. I am Feng Zichen's son. This is true no matter what.
It cannot be changed. It is also a fact that Feng Zichen and 700 million people disappeared from the world. Now that this case is pending here, it is nothing more than a big bounty for you detectives. You want to use approaching me to find clues to pursue,
There’s nothing wrong with that.”
It was originally a happy meal, but when this issue came up, the scene became awkward. Everyone put down their chopsticks in unison, only Bai Bai kept babbling, Zhou Zhengling coaxed him
, wanting him to make no noise as much as possible.
After a few seconds of silence, Wu Juan first put her hands on the table and said to Su Ran and Su Ran: "You are still his friends, how unjust! If he had a chance to get 700 million, why would he still live here?
ah."
Su Ran didn't know how to explain it for a moment, but Tang Junxia said first: "Xiao Wu, it's not all what you think. We do want to help him, but if this case cannot be resolved, we will continue to pester him."
Wu Juan said unceremoniously: "I see, it's just you two who are pestering him. He has lived a hard life alone, and he has to take care of his younger brother. What else do you want to do?"
Mrs. Bao also said: "Chief Su, Xiao Tang, I'm not talking about you. I usually don't talk to Xiao Wu the same way, but this time I think Xiao Wu is right. Xiao Feng is having a hard time now."
Okay, why don’t you add insult to injury?"
Su Ran took a breath and explained: "Actually, everyone has a bit of misunderstanding. In fact, as an agent of the Anti-Corruption Bureau, if Uncle Feng showed up at this time and was doing business, I would definitely arrest him, but for
Xiao Nan, I sincerely treat him as a friend. If you don’t believe me, you can ask Jun Xia." As he said that, he turned his eyes to Tang Jun Xia, hoping that she would smooth out his words for him.
Tang Junxia understood immediately, but just as she was about to speak, Feng Nan said: "Haha, don't say such lies in front of people who understand. Honestly speaking, in the days after I was sent back from the military academy, I had nowhere to go. Jun Xia
You and I really helped me a lot, but then we gradually became estranged. I won’t say the reason for this estrangement. Some time ago, I felt a little strange when you suddenly appeared again. Although the three of us are good friends, Jun Xia now
I'm in love with you. I did some calculations and found that there were three of us together when we met recently. You and Jun Xia also met alone with me, but obviously Jun Xia and I met alone more often. This doesn't matter.
It’s so normal, I thought at first I was judging a gentleman’s heart with a villain’s heart, until I found out…”
When Feng Nan said this, he deliberately didn't say anything further, but everyone's appetite was whetted. Su Ran also bluffed and said: "Xiao Nan, I think you are suspicious. I am busy at work, so Jun Xia will come and see you more."
It’s nothing.”
"It's nothing." Feng Nan said, "A good friend may be nothing." He said, stood up, strolled to the window on one side, opened the curtains a crack, and took a look outside. This seemed to be subconscious.
Others thought his actions were nothing, but as a detective, Su Ran's expression suddenly changed.
Feng Nan saw Su Ran's expression change and smiled again: "We are all good friends. Jun Xia is here to see me. You can pick her up in the evening. You can just go upstairs or call her, but there is no need.
Just hide quietly at the street corner and keep an eye on me every time. By the way, your surveillance skills are so bad. Every time, I find that your actions are really weird. I didn’t even know you were there.
What are you worried about? In fact, you are trying to spy on me. Since Jun Xia is willing to help you come to me to find out the news, why would she turn her back on you and choose me?"
As soon as he said this, everyone at the table looked at Su Ran with disdain, and Tang Junxia suddenly turned her face: "Su Ran! I thought you were worried that I would walk at night too late, but it turns out you were guarding against this!
