Xia Momo was worried that Ling Yan was in a bad mood, so she came over to invite her to lunch again at noon. This time, Xia Momo decided to take her to a big dinner.
After some hard talking, Ling Yan was invited to the restaurant on the top floor and asked for a seat by the window. Outside the window were buildings lined with buildings, and in the distance were the blue sky and white clouds.
Everything is lazy, which makes people feel better.
"Momo, you invited me to dinner again, I will definitely invite you back sometime." Ling Yan was very moved.
"Okay, this weekend, let's take Xiaobao to your house for some food and drinks." Xia Momo nodded with a smile.
"Okay, it's just... I promised the children that I would take them to meet their father this Saturday." Ling Yan said with a wry smile.
"Did you tell them?" Xia Momo was very surprised.
"Well, I can't hide it anymore. They guessed it themselves. I'm very surprised how they guessed Gu Xichen." Ling Yan had a confused expression on her face.
When Xia Momo heard this, she laughed guiltily: "Yanyan, I'm sorry, it's all my fault. Last time I took the three little guys to play on the island, I went to Gu Xichen's shopping mall to buy things.
, I happened to meet him there, maybe the children thought he looked too similar to them, so they became suspicious."
Ling Yan was stunned, so that was it.
"Momo, it's okay. I didn't plan to hide it from them forever anyway, but they were very sensible and didn't bother to recognize him. They just said they were willing to let me take them to see him from a distance." Ling Yan said this.
, a little bitter, after all, she is so useless as a mother.
"Don't be sad, otherwise, Mu Xiuhan told me that his company will have a banquet tomorrow night, and Gu Xichen is also invited. I will take you both there. If you don't want to see him, you can
Let's play upstairs, I'll take the kids down to meet him." Xia Momo said immediately.
"Really?" Ling Yan didn't expect that the opportunity would come soon, and she was a little nervous.
"Yes, as long as you trust me and leave the children to me, I will take good care of them for you." Xia Momo assured her.
"Why am I worried? The one I'm most worried about is you, Momo. If it's really possible, you can take my children there. I won't go." Ling Yan sighed and agreed.
"Yanyan, you can go too. If you don't want to go to the banquet hall, I will arrange for you to go to the lounge upstairs and I will bring you delicious food." Xia Momo still hopes that she can go together.
"Okay." Ling Yan nodded in agreement.
The two friends ordered a table of dishes and chatted about trivial matters in life while eating. The atmosphere was very harmonious.
However, when they were about to leave after eating, they met a group of people, led by an old lady, dressed in rich clothes, supported by a young man, who seemed to have just come out from the meal.
Ling Yan looked up and saw a group of people coming towards her. She was so frightened that she quickly lowered her head.
"Ling Yan..." Mrs. Gu recognized her immediately and called her out.
"Hello, Mrs. Gu." Ling Yan lowered her head in shame and greeted politely.
"We happened to meet each other, come here and have a chat with me." Mrs. Gu didn't make things particularly difficult for her, she just said.
"What do you want to talk about?" Ling Yan was very nervous, her pretty face turned pale.
"What? You don't dare to talk to me anymore?" The old lady walked to the balcony next to her. Ling Yan glanced at Xia Momo.
Xia Momo immediately said: "Mrs. Gu, I came here with my friend. I also want to hear what you want to talk about."
"Who are you?" Mrs. Gu immediately frowned.
Ling Yan took Xia Momo's arm and said, "She is my best friend."
When Mrs. Gu heard this, she knew that she was a best friend, so she must have chatted with him a lot on weekdays.
"Okay, why not come together and listen."
The two of them followed the old lady to the balcony. The old lady sat on the sofa and then said, "Ling Yan, have you been in contact with my grandson recently?"
Ling Yan immediately shook her head and replied in a panic: "No, I have never contacted him."
"Very good, do you know about his new girlfriend?" the old lady asked again.
Ling Yan nodded: "I have seen all the uproar on the Internet."
"Now that you know, you should also understand that you no longer have a place in my grandson's heart. I just want to remind you not to ruin their relationship. Nuan'er is the ideal grandson's wife in my mind." Mrs. Gu
Emphasis on the last sentence.
Ling Yan's face turned pale, she bit her lower lip and nodded: "I won't."
But the old lady said forcefully: "You'd better not. If you let me know that you ruined their relationship, I won't let you go."
Xia Momo stood aside with her hands folded on her chest. After hearing this, she immediately said coldly: "Old lady, what you said is a bit funny. It is your grandson who you should educate, as long as he doesn't come to harass you."
My friend is pretty good."
"You said my grandson harassed her?" Old Mrs. Gu looked in disbelief, even a little embarrassed: "My grandson's conditions are obvious to all. What kind of woman does he want to marry?"
"He wants to marry my Yanyan, but can't he?" Xia Momo really couldn't stand it. The old lady thought her grandson was so noble that he needed to suppress Lingyan like this.
When Ling Yan heard Xia Momo talking back, she was so frightened that she quickly held her hand: "Momo, stop talking."
"Why don't you say that? Old lady, you are an old man, we should respect you, but you should not bully young people. My friend has made it clear that he does not want to mess with your grandson, but he comes to your door every day for nothing..."
"Momo, please, stop talking." Ling Yan's pretty face turned pale with fright.
Xia Momo had no choice but to shut up, but she still looked unconvinced.
Old Mrs. Gu was so angry that she snorted: "Ling Yan, look at the friends you have made. They are neither big nor small, light or heavy. You can't even respect the elderly. No wonder you are so old."
I’m still ignorant.”
Ling Yan lowered her eyebrows and said, "Mrs. Gu, I'm not sensible, but please don't say anything bad about my friend. My friend is the best person I have ever met."
"Heh, you two..." Mrs. Gu finally heard it, and they praised each other, but they didn't want it anymore.
Xia Momo glanced sideways at Ling Yan, who happened to be looking at her, with a faint smile on both of their lips.
Mrs. Gu didn't want to pay attention to them anymore. She got up and left. When she reached the door, she turned back and added: "Ling Yan, you'd better remember what I said."
When the old lady left, Ling Yan's whole body seemed to have been drained of its soul, and she looked dull.
"Yanyan, cheer up, no one in this world can survive without the other." Xia Momo quickly comforted her.
Ling Yan nodded and forced a smile: "Momo, you're right, I can't be too negative. I have to set an example for the children."
"That's right, let's go, I'll take you back to the store." Xia Momo patted her back gently, and the two of them got out of the parking lot.
In the afternoon, Mu Xiuhan asked Xia Momo to see a doctor, and Xia Momo came as scheduled.
