Bai Yuxiu saw Zhuang Yan on the show, and almost recognized him at first. She knew that the show was about Yan Zong, so she didn't tell the truth about the matter, but now seeing Zhuang Yan appear in Bai Menglu's house, she was not mentally prepared at all.

"You are... Zhuang Yan?" Because everyone on the show was shouting like that Zhuang Yan, Bai Yuxiu also subconsciously called out this form of address.

"Good aunt." Zhuang Yan had already guessed that she was Bai Menglu's mother, so she leaned over to invite her to come in.

Bai Yuxiu put Bai Menglu's spare slippers at the door for her, and conveniently also saw Zhuang Yan's slippers on her feet. He was wearing men's slippers, and they fit his feet really well, they should be his slippers... In that case, the two of them were already living together?

She pulled the door open and followed Zhuang Yan into the living room, seeing him put the computer and documents on the table, it seemed like he was still working here a moment ago. Bai Menglu sat in front of the dining table, just finished eating a chopstick of food, and saw her mother following behind Zhuang Yan.

"Mom, why are you here?" She stood up from the chair, somewhat surprised to see Bai Yuxiu. Bai Yuxiu smiled at her, subconsciously glanced at the food on the table: "Just ate dinner now? Why did you eat this at noon?"

Zhuang Yan said: "She has a little fever, temporarily eat something light."

Bai Yuxiu heard, then somewhat worriedly walked two steps in Bai Menglu's direction: "What fever? How do you feel now?"

"Much better now." Bai Menglu just said this, and coughed twice again. Bai Yuxiu went to her side, helped her sit down on the chair: "You sit down first, this is still coughing."

Zhuang Yan stood at the side of the table, and said to Bai Menglu: "I just made salted oranges, now the time is just about right, I'll bring it out for you."

Bai Menglu looked at him in slight surprise: "You also made salted oranges?"

"Yeah, you have a little cough, and you don't drink sugar water."

"..." She didn't just forget about this.

Bai Yuxiu watched Zhuang Yan go into the kitchen, although she had a belly full of questions in her mind, but she still first cared about Bai Menglu's physical condition: "Are you still burning up now?"

"Just a little fever, it's not a big problem." Bai Menglu hadn't been alone with her mother for too long, and it was rare for mother and daughter to live in the same room, and she felt a little embarrassed for a moment, "That, mother, did you eat lunch?"

"I've tasted it." She said while looking at the porridge on the table, "Trang Yen will eat this with you? He's a big man and can't eat enough."

"Ah..." As soon as her mother said this, Bai Menglu also realized that letting Zhuang Yan accompany her to eat a patient's meal seemed a bit wrong, "However, there's no other food at home. I went to the show before and emptied the refrigerator. After returning, I was always busy with many things and didn't have time to buy anything."

"Then Zhuang Yan didn't buy anything?"

"...Ah?"

Before Bai Menglu could figure out why her mother asked that, Zhuang Yan had already brought the well-salted steamed orange back to the dining room.

"Be careful, it's hot." He placed the small bowl and spoon of steamed orange in front of Bai Menglu, then walked to the place where he had just sat down.

Bai Yuxiu didn't think that there would be another person in the house, but she also didn't have the good or the bad stance to push Zhuang Yan out, she could only not treat him as an outsider and just opened her mouth like that: "Mother came today, is to tell you about Jiang Chi's matter."

"... Ah." Bai Menglu replied, lowered her head and picked up a spoon to scoop orange meat.

"I just found out yesterday, it turns out he colluded with his friend, wanting to cheat you of the inheritance matter." Bai Yuxiu frowned slightly, looking at her, "This matter is all his good-natured thoughts, definitely not your and Uncle Jiang's intentions, we have already taught him a lesson. Today, I originally wanted to let him personally apologize to you, but he..."

"Then there's no need." Bai Menglu curled her lips and smiled, "In any case, I don't really want to see him."

Bai Yuxiu's lips twitched, Bai Menglu and Jiang Chi were both her children, the two of them were blood brothers, she naturally hoped that the two of them could get along in harmony, but up to now, she had no position to ask Bai Menglu for anything: "This matter is indeed his fault, but you can rest assured, he definitely won't dare in the future, the inheritance your grandfather left you is yours, mother absolutely wouldn't think of the idea of ​​taking that sum of money."

"I know, I don't think it was you and Uncle Jiang who ordered him to do this." If it was really them who gave him the hint, they probably wouldn't have thought of such a stupid move.

Bai Yuxiu knew that what she said was sincere, but she still felt a little miserable in her heart. She herself couldn't say why: "Monroe, I know that you must be uncomfortable in your heart. Jiang Zhi felt that his grandfather was unfair since he was young, so after he knew that you had a large inheritance, his heart became even more unbalanced. At your grandfather's funeral, I already scolded him once, but he still didn't think it through. It was my fault that he caused you such great trouble."

Bai Menglu tilted her head to look at her: "Mom, you didn't do anything wrong, you don't need to help Jiang Zhi apologize."

Bai Duc Tu pursed his lips and was silent for a while, then opened his mouth and said: "It's me who didn't teach him well."

For Bai Menglu's daughter, Bai Yuxiu felt guilty. She and Feng Zhengbin had just gotten married a few years ago, and had always lived very happily. At that time, they had also loved their daughter wholeheartedly. Even after she divorced Feng Zhengbin, she had wanted to continue to carry Bai Menglu, but after remarrying, she quickly became pregnant with Jiang Chi, and the time and energy she could give Bai Menglu became less and less.

She originally did not agree with the "If you have a stepfather, you have a stepmother" argument, but the truth proved that some things were indeed beyond one's control. Moreover, after Jiang Chi gave birth, Bai Menglu would be even more uncomfortable waiting for her in this family.

Fortunately, she still had her maternal grandparents who loved her, that's right, that's why she could so comfortably hand the child over to them.

Bach Mong Lo also did not speak, since childhood Khuong Tri was jealous of her grandfather's injustice, maybe he did something wrong, and his mother came out to apologize for him, what did she have?..

She also did not know whether or not she was because she was still sick, so her emotions were especially weak, just thinking about it, she felt wronged to the point that her eyes began to turn red. Opposite Zhuang Yan suddenly stood up, and said to Bai Yuxiu: "Bai Auntie, what you want to say is that we all know, she is still sick, needs to rest, you should go back first today." Bai Yuxiu was slightly stunned, nodded and followed him: "You said that, that Monroe will be left for you to take care of."

"Hmm."

Zhuang Yan followed beside her and prepared to send her out, Bai Yuxiu looked at him, and still could not help but ask a question as soon as she entered the door: "You... are living together?"

Zhuang Yan: "...."

Before he could speak, Bai Menglu suddenly nodded and said to her mother, "That's right. We're living together. So you let Jiang Zhi not waste those thoughts and have time to read more books."

"... Good." Hearing Bai Menglu say this with her own ears, Bai Yuxiu was still a little startled. Her mind immediately filled with worries, such as whether Zhuang Yan was serious? Would Bai Menglu suffer a loss by living together? If both of them were serious, had they considered the matter of marriage?

Many thoughts flashed through her mind, but in the end, she felt that she, this mother, should be in name only and not in substance, and had no right to ask.

After Bai Yuxiu left, Zhuang Yan closed the door and went back to the living room, looking at Bai Menglu without saying a word.

"Cough." Bai Menglu knew she was in the wrong, and tactically coughed, "I said this to my mother, mainly to make that idiot Jiang Chi lose hope, don't even think about finding yourself a brother-in-law again." She said this

, clearly feeling Zhuang Yan's momentum soften, she herself didn't know which word was poking Zhuang Zong.

"Eat." Zhuang Yan sat back on the chair under the table, continuing to eat.

Bai Menglu had already finished eating the pickled oranges he had just made for her, and now she asked with some concern, "Can you eat this to your heart's content?"

Zhuang Yan said, "Not bad, sometimes I'm busy, I don't even pay attention to lunch."

"Then you can't help but eat, you're not made of iron." Bai Menglu looked at him and frowned, "Where's your special assistant Meng Xi? He makes you so much salary every month, and he doesn't even remind you to eat lunch?"

Meng Xi, on the other hand, would diligently remind him to eat. Sometimes, he would even leave carefully prepared food in his office, and he would forget to eat.

"Meng Xi himself doesn't even remember to eat." Zhuang Yan said matter-of-factly.

"Achoo."While sitting in the car with the driver, Manh Hi suddenly sneezed. What happened? Someone was saying bad things about him?

He gently rubbed the tip of his nose, looked at the time again, and sent a message to Zhuang Yan: "Boss, the time difference is not much, if you don't go, you won't be able to make it to the afternoon meeting."

Zhuang Yan received the message, glanced at it, picked up the bowl of porridge and drank it all: "I'm full, I'll go back to the company first, if you have any discomfort, call me at any time."

Bai Menglu looked at him, and stood up: "You just ate like this?"

"The company has a place to eat tea at noon, if you're hungry you can eat." Zhuang Yan picked up her computer and documents, and went to the door to change her leather shoes, "Go ahead, you don't need to see me off."

"Oh." Bai Menglu watched him go out, and suddenly had a kind of... illusion of sending her husband to work.

Help, she was really confused. : )

After Zhuang Yan left, Bai Menglu finished eating the porridge, took the bowl and chopsticks and put them in the pond, planning to come and wash again at night. In the kitchen there were many foods and drinks, Bai Menglu took a look, there were fresh vegetables, fruits, chicken eggs, beef steak, and the animal fruit that she often ate, on the ground there was also a box of cow's milk and a box of electrolyte water.

To be able to make so many things in such a short time, Meng Special Assistant was indeed hired by Zhuang Yan.

Not long after, sitting in the car, Zhuang Yan received a message from Bai Menglu: "Help me thank Meng Special Assistant, making so many things was hard ( • ω • )? ."

Zhuang Yan frowned, and replied to her: "I will pay the money."

Bai Menglu: Thank you, the world's best Zhuang Zong!

Zhuang Yan gently hooked her lips, this small expression that exuded a love sour taste, was caught by the front row Meng Special Assistant.

Who can! Quickly save! Their boss! Ah!

"Bai Menglu said thank you Meng special assistant for ordering so many things." In a good mood, Trang Yen also brought a sentence for Bai Menglu.

Meng special assistant solemnly said: "No need, I will do as the boss orders, I am the boss's special assistant, I only do things for the boss."

He is not someone who can be ordered around at will!

Trang Yen's pupils twitched, feeling that his words were not bad, so she passed it on to Bai Menglu: "I will help you by the way, Meng Xi said there is no need to thank me, he will do as the boss orders, you just have to thank the boss."..
