Xiao Xiao came in with a smile together with the people who were also coming in. Mo Fei looked at Anran whose face had suddenly whitened. His mouth showed a faint smile. This time he would not let her go, even if he had to force her, he would keep her by his side.
A few people on the other side had sensed the unusual tension between Anran and Mo Fei. Xiao Xiao’s lip smiled. She was pretending to be surprised and asked ” Anran, you knew Mo Zong before, ah ”

 

Anran looked at Xiao Xiao, but did not speak.
Tong Wen Hai looked at Anran, then looked at Mo Fei. He asked “Mo Fei, do you know her?”
Mo Fei looked back, at his father. He smiled and said “Dad, I and Anran were cla.s.smates. We have not seen each other for several years. I did not expect to encounter her here.”
“Oh, ah.” Tong Wen Hai clearly understood, then he nodded.
Huang Dexing stood aside. His eyebrows slightly raised. He just laughed without a word.
Mo Fei then turned to Anran. He smiled and said “Anran, long time no see.”
Anran took a deep breath trying to stabilize her mood. She did not smile, only  tugged at the corners of the mouth. Holding his hand unnaturally, she said “Long time no see.”
Mo Fei was holding her hand. While everyone did not see, he was grinding and rubbing his thumb on the back of her hand.
Anran was frightened. She shoved his hands back. Her eyes suddenly looked at him widely. She felt strange toward the man in front of her, where there was a little bit of the shadow from six years ago.
Anran’s reaction attracted Tong Wen Hai who was standing aside. He looked a little bit puzzled, “How?”
Mo Fei gave a faint smile at Anran, only said “I do not know. Maybe, Anran dislikes my handshake.”
Tong Wen Hai looked at Anran. His eyes seemed to ask Anran whether it was as Mo Fei stated.
“Oh, no. Anran just shy. For me, to shake hands with him makes me happy.” Xiao Xiao stood and said it cooly.
Anran in this case, naturally could not say anything. Then she said “No, no, Mo Zong, Mo Zong’s hand was , no, not accidentally grabbed tightly.”
“Haha, that was full of Mo Zong’s charms, but Xiao Xiao and Anran, the two of you have no chance. Mo Zong is always a family man, Tong juzhang’s daughter is Mo Zong’s love, both are husband and wife. His wife loves him. A few years ago, she went to the United States for further study. Mo Zong always been with her. They just came back from the United States together. “Huang Dexing was said jokingly.
But he did find that Anran’s has just changed significantly compared to Mo Fei’s face, though still with a smile, but that smile a little bit stiff, this point has not escaped with him, after all, he had been with Anran for four years.
Anran avoided his eyes, only saying, “We’ll sit down and talk about it as we eat. I’ll call the waiter to serve the meal.”
“Right, right, right. We sit down first. How can we still standing.” Huang Dexing echoed.
Hearing that, the anxious people had sat down. Anran opened the door and called the staff. On the way, she took a breath. The atmosphere inside was too depressing.
On the outside, she adjusted her emotions. Anran forced herself to try not to look at Mo Fei’s face.
After three drinks, the dinner could be considered officially entering the topic today. Huang Dexing looked at Tong Wen Hai, smiled and asked ” I heard that the government planned to prepare a science and technology city. I don’t know. Is this true?”
Tong Wen Hai glanced at Mo Fei, then turned around and looked at Huang Dexing, only saying “Before the specific file comes down, everything has no set number. It’s hard to say, ah” Then, he stretched the chopsticks, took a bit of the bamboo shoots, and slowly put it into his mouth.
“Oh, there is basically a proposal. It is pretty close to the time. I also hope a lot of care from Tong Ju.” Huang Dexing smiled and poured Maotai* into Tong Wen Hai’s cup.  *) Maotai : a distilled Chinese liquor
Tong Wen Hai with one hand respectfully blocked the wine. He did not pick it up, just shrugged and said “Recently, I have high blood pressure and high lipids. The doctors have told me to drink as little wine as possible.”
Huang Dexing did not put it into his cup. His twinkling eyes watched Tong Wen Hai and did not know what to do next.
Mo Fei saw his eyes. He smiled reaching for the gla.s.s, and said ” Recently, father really can’t drink. Huang Zongjian, if you don’t mind, I can drink this wine on behalf of my father. How about it?”
Huang Dexing holding his gla.s.s, clinked with Mo Fei’s gla.s.s. He said “Extremely happy, extremely happy. ”

 

Anran’s mind was completely blank here. She just wanted to leave as soon as this ended. She really did not know what she wanted to do, but after such an occasion, she still tried to avoid the bar.
Just thinking about how to get out of here, a piece of meat was suddenly put into Anran’s bowl. She was stunned and looked up. She saw Tong Wen Hai smiling at her and said “Here’s the salmon. It is good. Try tasting it. ”
Tong Wen Hai’s move made all of them shocked. Anran looked at him, did not know how to react.
Xiao Xiao looked to the side. Her eyes had a little confusion in them. Huang Dexing raised an eyebrow. Mo Fei, without a word, looking at his own father’s behaviour, and frowned slightly. His hand holding the cup unconsciously tightened.
“Try tasting it.” Seeing that she did not move, Tong Wen Hai smiled and said it again.
“Uh, thank you Tong Juzhang.” Anran was flattered then nodded. She lifted the fish  using her chopsticks then put it into her mouth.
Tong Wen Hai nodded, then turned around and smiled, as if nothing happened.
Mo Fei watched Anran’s small mouth eating vegetables. He wrinkled his eyebrows a bit tighter.
After the group of people was satiated and joked-for a while, they got up to leave.
Tong Wen Hai deliberately slowed down when he went out. He walked side by side with Anran. He said “The thing about last time, I am sorry. I thought that no one among the pack, so I just told them to let them change the room. I don’t know that you had booked it.”
Anran smiled and shook her head, saying nothing directly.
Tong Wen Hai looked at her profile, and could not help remembering the face of the woman who had been in his heart for nearly three decades. He did not think that they would encounter each other. His mouth, eventually lost control, and asked “You, Your mother, recently how is she? Is everything okay?”
Anran turned to look at him and asked “Tong Juzang, are you familiar with my mother? ”
Tong Wen Hai gave her a hollow laugh, then nodded, “Oh, a few years ago.”
Anran nodded, only saying “My mother is very good, and also very healthy.”
“That’s good.” Tong Wen Hai nodded. Knowing that she was safe, he was a.s.sured.
