After getting up in the morning and having breakfast, Zhou Chen found that there was still no movement at all in the master bedroom. He didn't know how late the two women had been chatting last night, and they still hadn't woken up yet.
He could understand their excitement. After all, they were best friends and best friends. They hadn't seen each other for more than two years. If they met again, there would definitely be endless topics to talk about.
After talking to the nanny Aunt Chen, Zhou Chen walked out of the villa and went to the public garden of the community.
Although most residents in the villa area have their own gardens, there are still many people gathering in the public gardens. There are many wealthy people living in the villa area, but there are also many elderly people and children. Young people may not have time.
But the elderly and children have a lot of time, and many people gather here in the morning and evening.
"Xiao He, why didn't you bring your wife with you today?"
The person who asked the question was an old lady with silver hair. She walks here every morning and is very familiar with Zhou Chen and Li Muzi who often walk.
Zhou Chen replied: "Good morning, Grandma Sang. My wife's good friend came yesterday and was staying with guests at home, so I am alone."
"Well, speaking of it, she should be giving birth soon. If she does, you have to inform grandma. Grandma will definitely give you a big red envelope."
"Thank you, Grandma Sang. I will let you know when the time comes."
The people who live here are either rich or noble, so giving a red envelope is just a trivial matter to them.
Zhou Chen walked over to an old man who was placing chess pieces and sat down.
"Uncle Lu, it's so early, why don't I come and kill two sets with you?"
Of course Uncle Lu also knew Zhou Chen, and asked with suspicion: "Can you do it?"
Zhou Chen smiled and said: "Uncle Lu, when it's over, you won't ask this question."
"Oh, you are quite loud. Come on, let me see if you are bragging."
Uncle Lu laid out the chess pieces and asked Zhou Chen to move first. Zhou Chen didn't show any politeness to him and just took the easiest shot.
Uncle Lu played fiercely at chess and was not prepared to save any face for the young man. He made frequent killing moves. On the contrary, Zhou Chen played steadily and responded step by step.
Uncle Lu walked very fast at first, but after ten steps, he became much slower. He had to think about every step he took. In the end, he thought for a long time before leaving.
Ten minutes later, Uncle Lu raised his head and glared at Zhou Chen with dissatisfaction.
"You are here to pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger. You are moving step by step, and you don't have the decisiveness of a young man."
"Uncle Lu, what you said is wrong. Who said young people have to be decisive in killing? I call it dignified and majestic."
"Humph, what the hell, how can I be upright even if I am caught by surprise? I was unprepared, and that's why I was defeated by you. Let me play another game and let you see my true strength."
Uncle Lu was very tough. He felt that he underestimated the enemy too much, so he gave Zhou Chen a chance to catch him by surprise. If he was serious, he would definitely win.
After just setting up the chess game and playing the game again for five minutes, Uncle Lu's frown deepened. He thought for several minutes and finally put down the chess pieces helplessly.
"Xiao He, you have this ability, are you here to amuse me on purpose?"
After two games, Uncle Lu recognized himself. In the second game, he had already shown 100% of his ability, but he lost faster than the first game. He has become more mature with age, and he still can't recognize Zhou Chen's chess skills.
far surpassed him.
Zhou Chen explained with a smile: "Uncle Lu, you have misunderstood me. Didn't I come here to play two games with you because you have no opponent?"
"Haha, I think you came to make me angry on purpose." Uncle Lu scolded angrily.
At this time, Uncle Lu's old rival arrived, and Zhou Chen took the initiative to give up his position.
Even though Uncle Lu is just like an old man who sets up a roadside stall and plays chess, in fact, he is also a great business tycoon, but he is just retired now.
There is also the former Grandma Sang, who was also a famous actor and artist all over the country when she was young. He Fei was not qualified to talk to them before, but Zhou Chen was able to get along with them very friendly.
After Zhou Chen walked around, he returned to the villa, only to find that Li Muzi and Shen Man still hadn't gotten up.
When it was almost noon, Li Muzi and Shen Man got up. As soon as they finished washing, Shen Man started shouting.
"I'm starving, I'm starving, is there anything to eat?"
Li Muzi brought a large bag of snacks to Shen Man and felt very funny watching Shen Man devour them.
"Manman, eat slowly, eat slowly."
Shen Man asked curiously while eating: "Muzi, why aren't you hungry? You are two people. I am also hungry. Why aren't you hungry?"
Li Muzi replied: "It's not that I'm not hungry, it's that I have no appetite."
Zhou Chen came over with milk at this time. Li Muzi smiled sweetly at Zhou Chen and took the milk: "Thank you, husband."
"Eh~"
Shen Man shuddered exaggeratedly, "Are you still my Muzi? You speak so eloquently that I even have goosebumps."
"How can I do that? Don't laugh at me."
Li Muzi blushed. She was used to getting along with Zhou Chen like this and didn't think there was a problem. But when Shen Man heard it, it felt different.
Shen Man kept shaking his head: "Love and marriage will indeed change a person. He Fei, I also want to drink milk. Make me a cup too."
Zhou Chen sighed and turned around to pour another drink for Shen Man. This woman was really polite at all and seemed like a social expert.
"Give."
Shen Man took the milk and imitated Li Muzi's voice: "Thank you~"
Li Muzi couldn't help shouting: "Manman."
Zhou Chen even had goosebumps all over his body. Li Muzi spoke softly, which he found cute, but Shen Man's tone was really scary.
"Hahaha……"
The funny Shen Man burst into laughter, laughing hard, but soon tragedy struck, and a glass of milk spilled all over himself.
"Ah, ah..."
Shen Man jumped up and screamed: "It's over, it's over, why am I so unlucky?"
As he said that, he took off the sweater he was wearing on the spot, "Oh, it's wet inside too."
Seeing that Shen Man wanted to continue taking off his clothes, Li Muzi hurriedly shouted: "Manman."
Shen Man was startled for a moment, then reacted, his face turned red, and he suddenly turned his head to look at Zhou Chen, only to find that Zhou Chen had already turned around.
He breathed a sigh of relief, and then hurried to the room to change clothes. Li Muzi couldn't help stroking his forehead and sighing.
"Aunt Chen, Manman's milk spilled, come over and clean it up."
"Okay, miss."
Li Muzi turned to Zhou Chen and said, "Husband, Manman has always been like this. He got used to it when he was with me. Don't worry about it."
Zhou Chen shrugged and said, "I don't care, but you have to remind him that I am a man in this family."
Li Muzi found it funny: "Okay, I'll remind her that Manman is actually very good, and I think you can also become very good friends."
Zhou Chen smiled and said nothing, becoming good friends with his wife's best friend. Normally, this is not a good phenomenon.
Shen Man quickly changed her clothes. When she came out, she didn't feel any embarrassment at all. She said calmly and generously: "It seems that milk and I still don't get along. Muzi, I want to drink lemonade. There are lemons at home."
"have."
Li Muzi likes to drink lemonade. Although he can't drink it now because of his appetite, he always has fresh lemons at home.
"You don't have to get up, I'll do it myself."
Shen Man dragged on his slippers and ran to the kitchen. He found a lemon from the refrigerator and took a water glass.
When she saw the 'M' symbol printed on the bottom of the water glass, a bright smile appeared on her face.
This is the symbol unique to her and Li Muzi. It is both Shen Man's Man and Li Muzi's Mu.
She knew Li Muzi's habit of using a cup like this, just like she would use a cup with the same symbol. On this point, they were in sync with each other.
She walked back to the living room with the water glass. When Li Muzi saw that Shen Man had chosen this water glass, he also smiled.
"Manman, you finally returned to China. I should have taken you around, but in my current situation, I can't walk. If you want to go somewhere, I'll ask the driver or He Fei to take you there."
Li Muzi looked apologetic. She really wanted to take Shen Man out for fun, but she also knew her situation and going out was just a burden.
Shen Man leaned next to her and said, "What are you talking about? I came back to China just for you. I would rather stay at home with you than go anywhere."
Li Muzi was moved and said: "Manman, it's great to have you."
"Me too. I've been really uncomfortable with you not being with me for the past two years. Now that we are finally together again, I'm really happy."
"Thank you, Manman, for flying all the way back to be with me."
"Isn't this how it should be? If you give birth to a child, it would be a pity if I wasn't around."
Listening to the conversation between the two women, Zhou Chen felt more and more uncomfortable. Are all conversations between female best friends so straightforward?
Should I be under the car?
Seeing how close the two women were, he finally couldn't help but cough twice.
Li Muzi turned his head and asked with concern: "What's wrong, husband?"
Facing the curious eyes of the two women, Zhou Chen sighed and said, "I just feel like my wife has been snatched away. I'm very helpless."
"Pfft!"
Li Muzi and Shen Man were both amused by Zhou Chen's pretending to be aggrieved.
Shen Man even hugged Li Muzi and said loudly: "I didn't steal Muzi, it was you who robbed me of Muzi. I have known Muzi for more than ten years, and you have only known each other for more than two years. Our relationship is comparable." You are much deeper."
Zhou Chen retorted: "That's not what you said, and feelings are not measured by time. Although we have known each other for a short time, our feelings are deep. I heard Muzi say that you have never been in love, so you must not be able to understand me. The relationship between you and Muzi."
When Shen Man heard this, he immediately became anxious: "I have never been in love, but that doesn't mean I don't understand it. I am a drama director. I have directed many love dramas. How can I not understand love?"
"hehe."
"No, what do you mean, you look down on me?"
"No, I just think it's funny."
"Ah, you actually think I'm funny."
Shen Man was very angry at Zhou Chen, his 'love rival', and complained to Li Muzi: "Muzi, your husband laughed at me, you take revenge on me."
Seeing the two people closest to him arguing, Li Muzi did not stop them, he just smiled and watched.
She knew her man well and knew that Zhou Chen was deliberately teasing Shen Man. As for the reason, Shen Man must have robbed her last night.
"Husband, stop teasing Manman."
Shen Man immediately glared: "Did you do it on purpose?"
Zhou Chen smiled and said: "Just kidding, who asked you to steal my wife?"
Shen Man snorted in dissatisfaction. He wasn't really angry at all. He was just unhappy because he was tricked by Zhou Chen.
"I still think you robbed my Muzi. If you dare to treat Muzi badly in the future, I will fight you."
Zhou Chen said solemnly: "You can rest assured that my mission is to be good to Muzi. Even if I am not good to myself, I will be good to her."
Shen Man's face softened: "I hope you remember what you said. Muzi is definitely the person who loves you most in the world."
Li Muzi pulled Shen Man to sit down and said softly: "Manman, why will he be good to me? I believe in him."
Shen Man was a little annoyed. Li Muzi used to be on her side, but now, although Li Muzi still treats her the same as before, there is an extra Zhou Chen between them.
Although she also understood that if one more person loved and cared for Li Muzi, Li Muzi would be happier, but after all, they had been getting along day and night for many years, and Li Muzi now had a husband and children, so she still felt a little sad.
"I'm going to the bathroom to give you and your wife some private space."
When Zhou Chen saw Shen Man leaving, he immediately sat next to Li Muzi and hugged her.
"She still has some sharp eyesight."
Li Muzi found it funny, but Zhou Chen's intimacy still made her feel warm. She had never seen Zhou Chen competing for favor like this before.
"Don't bully Manman."
"I didn't bully her. Who asked her to steal my wife? I couldn't sleep since you weren't by my side last night."
Li Muzi leaned on Zhou Chen's shoulder and said softly: "I don't believe it."
"Then do you want to sleep with her tonight?"
"Well, Manman and I haven't seen each other for a long time. I want to stay with her for a few days. Husband, don't be jealous."
Zhou Chen scratched Li Muzi's nose and said with a smile: "I'm not jealous. As long as you are happy, I can do whatever you want."
Li Muzi leaned into Zhou Chen's arms again and hugged his hand: "Husband, you are so kind."
"It's good to know. As long as it's good for you, I'm willing to do it."
Zhou Chen gently stroked Li Muzi's face. Perhaps because she hadn't slept well these days, her face turned a little yellow.
"You stay at home with Shen Man today. I have to go out. Huo Ran has come to see me several times. If I don't go to see him, he will come to our house."
Li Muzi nodded obediently: "You go ahead. Manman and I are at home. If anything happens, we will call you."
"Well, call me if you need anything."
Zhou Chen went out after lunch. Huo Ran had been in a hurry recently, and he was ready to solve this problem as soon as possible.
Although mosquitoes are small, they are always buzzing in your ears and may bite you at any time. The best solution is naturally.
