Xu Hongdou was sitting at the dining table with an embarrassed look on her face. Her sister Xu Hongmi was sitting opposite, with her legs crossed, staring straight at her without speaking.
Housing prices in the capital are extremely high. The house Xu Hongdou rents is not big, with one bedroom and one living room. Xu Hongmi can see the messy bed at a glance.
Wang Gang was still washing up in the bathroom, leaving the two sisters staring at each other.
"Sleeping?" Xu Hongmi raised her left eyebrow, and two words suddenly popped out.
Xu Hongdou was startled and said with a guilty conscience: "Sister, don't talk nonsense."
Xu Hongmi sneered, pointed to the bed and said, "You don't have a second bed here, right?"
Xu Hongdou seemed like a child who had done something wrong and was caught by his parents. He said in a panic: "We just slept yesterday and didn't do anything?"
Xu Hongmi raised her eyebrows again and said three more words.
"He can't?"
Xu Hongdou glanced at the bathroom nervously and said, "It's not what you think. We just chatted for a while yesterday and fell asleep when we were tired."
Xu Hongmi sneered: "I'm not a mother, you don't have to explain to me."
"Don't tell mom, I don't want to be annoyed by her." Xu Hongdou said.
"Don't think of my mother as an antique. She is actually quite open-minded." Xu Hongmi said, "Just pay attention to safety and take the necessary measures."
Xu Hongdou felt that she couldn't explain clearly.
Actually, I don’t blame her sister if I think about it. If I were in this situation, I would think wrong too!
Wang just came out of the bathroom, and the two sisters were still staring at each other, and neither of them spoke.
"I'm going to wash up." Xu Hongdou couldn't glare at her sister, so she had no choice but to run away.
Wang Gang sat opposite Xu Hongmi.
"Miss Xu, nice to meet you." Wang Gang greeted.
Xu Hongmi said nothing, but looked at Wang Gang with aura.
Wang Gang was also calm. Don't say that he didn't do anything last night. Even if he did something, it was done consensually. There is nothing to be embarrassed about.
Xu Hongmi seemed to appreciate Wang Gang's calmness and slowly looked away.
"My sister is not an easily emotional person." Xu Hongmi said suddenly.
"I know that I will be good to Hongdou in the future." Wang Gang said firmly: "I will never let her down."
"I hope you will keep your word." Xu Hongmi sighed and said, "My sister is very fragile mentally. Especially after her good friend left, she almost collapsed. If possible, I don't want you to be together."
Wang Gang was puzzled: "Why?"
"I've seen your paintings, and I can see from them that you are an emotional person." Xu Hongmi looked at Wang Gang and said.
"I never avoid my past, Hongdou knows it." Wang Gang said calmly.
"I know many artists who are very emotional. When emotions come, everything is fine. But when emotions go away, they are colder than anyone else." Xu Hongmi frowned and said:
"Hongdou is my sister. I don't want her to be sad in the future."
Wang Gang promised: "I can promise you that Hongdou will never be sad because of me in the future."
"You don't have to promise anything. A man's promise is worthless." Xu Hongmi said disdainfully.
"Then you should take a good look at the development of Hongdou and I." Wang Gang said firmly.
While they were talking, Xu Hongdou walked out of the bathroom. Xu Hongmi and Wang Gang had a tacit understanding and stopped talking.
"Sister, why did you come to see me?"
"I can't come to you if I have nothing to do?"
The two sisters fell in love as soon as they met, and they cared about each other more than anyone else behind their backs.
"Let's have breakfast together!" Wang Gang suggested.
"I have no problem." Xu Hongmi looked at her sister and asked, "Are you familiar with this area? Is there any good food here?"
Xu Hongdou said: "There is a steamed stuffed bun shop downstairs, and the bean juice is delicious."
"I don't want to drink that stuff, it's so bad and smelly." Xu Hongmi said dissatisfied.
"You can drink soy milk." Xu Hongdou didn't like her sister.
Wang Gang could tell that these two sisters couldn't talk to each other well.
The three of them went to the breakfast shop together and ordered a cage of vegetable buns, two bowls of soybean juice, and a bowl of soybean milk.
While Xu Hongdou was eating, he said to Xu Hongmi: "Brother Wang is not satisfied with your publicity plan. Please stop changing it."
Wang put down his chopsticks and was about to speak when Xu Hongmi said nonchalantly: "I have given up on the project."
Xu Hongdou said in surprise: "Why? Don't you care about the art exhibition? You even went to Yunmiao Village yourself."
Xu Hongmi said calmly: "The company has received bigger projects."
"How could this be possible? First come, first served, do you understand?" Xu Hongdou said angrily.
Wang Gang grabbed Xu Hongdou and said, "It doesn't matter, there will be opportunities for cooperation in the future."
Although Xu Hongmi didn't say it, Wang Gang could tell that she gave up the project for the sake of her sister.
She didn't want to affect her sister's feelings because of her interests.
At the same time, Xu Hongmi also expressed to Wang Gang that she would do anything for her sister.
The three of them ate steamed buns in silence, and then Xu Hongmi left.
Before leaving, she told Xu Hongdou: "Go home and see your parents when you have time. They miss you very much."
"I understand." Xu Hongdou said impatiently.
Xu Hongmi glanced sideways at Wang Gang and said, "You can also take him home."
With this sentence, it means that Wang Gang passed Xu Hongmi's assessment.
After Xu Hongmi left, Wang Gang took Xu Hongdou back home and cooked some food to bring to Dean Mei.
Naturally, Xu Hongdou also went to the hospital.
Dean Mei smiled from ear to ear when she saw Xu Hongdou.
"Girl, come and sit next to me." Dean Mei had bad eyesight and wanted to take a closer look at Xu Hongdou.
Xu Hongdou didn't show any pretense, and sat directly by the bed, chatting with Dean Mei.
"Girl, you are the only girl Xiaogang brought back to show me." Dean Mei smiled and said, "It shows that you mean a lot to him."
"Really?" Xu Hongdou looked at Wang Gang suspiciously.
Wang Gang took out the food and said with a smile: "Dean, would you like to eat first or drink the soup first?"
"Let Hongdou eat first, I'm not hungry." Dean Mei said with concern.
"We ate here." Xu Hongdou picked up the soup bowl and said, "I made this wolfberry crucian carp soup. You can try it."
"You made it, then I must try it." Meiyuan happily stretched out her hand, but because of cataracts, she couldn't catch the bowl.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Let me feed you!" Seeing this, Xu Hongdou suggested.
"No, no, I can do it." Dean Mei slowly touched the bowl and declined Xu Hongdou's kindness.
"Just let Hongdou feed you!" Wang Gang also advised.
Dean Mei didn't insist anymore. Xu Hongdou blew it carefully before feeding it to Dean Mei.
The nurse praised this scene.
"Your son and daughter-in-law are so filial."
Just as Dean Mei was about to explain, Wang Gang said to the nurse: "I would like to trouble you to take care of my mother."
In one sentence, Dean Mei's eyes turned red and she choked while drinking the soup.
Xu Hongdou also looked at Wang Gang with appreciation.
Wang Gang later found the attending doctor and asked about the operation. The operation was initially scheduled for the day after tomorrow. Xu Hongdou also said that he would come to the hospital to take care of him.
In the afternoon, Xu Hongdou accompanied Wang Gang to the welfare home to help Dean Mei handle some official matters.
"Is this where you grew up? It's pretty good! There's also a computer game room?" Xu Hongdou walked around the orphanage and said.
Wang Gang explained: "This was all built later. I didn't have a computer at that time. It was good to have enough food."
Hearing this, Xu Hongdou held Wang Gang's hand with some distress: "You had a hard time as a child, right?"
"Actually, it's not bad. Dean Mei's life is even worse." Wang Gang sighed: "The orphanage relies on the support of Dean Mei to survive until now. She sold all the houses to support the hospital."
"The dean is a great person." Xu Hongdou sighed.
Wang Gang stopped and said, "Part of the reason why I sold the paintings was to help Dean Mei."
"The dean has educated you very well," Xu Hongdou said.
"I am very grateful to the dean. If possible, I would like to support him in his old age." Wang Gang asked, "Would you agree?"
"Of course I agree!" Xu Hongdou said firmly.
Wang Gang smiled and took Xu Hongdou to meet the children.
Most of the children in the orphanage are orphans, and some are abandoned by their parents because of physical disabilities.
Xu Hongdou felt very distressed when she saw those children and kept playing with them.
Wang Gang went to deal with the official affairs left by Dean Mei, and repaired tables, chairs and benches by the way. He was busy until seven o'clock in the evening.
Originally, he wanted to take Xu Hongdou out for dinner, but he didn't expect a call from Sun Mansion, asking him to go out for a drink.
Sun Mansion felt a little uncomfortable on the phone, so Wang Gang simply took Xu Hongdou with him.
When they arrived, they found that Sun Fu had already drank some wine and there were many empty beer bottles on the table.
"Why did you drink it before I was here?" Wang Gang pulled Xu Hongdou to sit down.
When Sun Mansion saw Xu Hongdou, he suddenly showed curiosity.
