Furthermore, the fact that Zhang Xiao was Zhang Hao Tian"s daughter, was also a fact that at the same time tormenting Mu Chen, which made him extremely conflicted; he could only use the excuse that he was busy with work as an excuse so that the two of them would not be able to meet again.Actually, every time he went through the phone and heard Zhang Xiao"s clear voice, Mu Chen would always have an impulse to pull the radio waves with all his might, hoping to pull Zhang Xiao from the other side in front of him.
One could only hear his voice, and seeing him was even more tormenting than meeting him face to face. That kind of voice that imagined her looks and playfulness when she spoke made Mu Chen go a bit crazy. During this month, not only did he not stop to develop feelings for Zhang Xiao, he instead developed feelings for him, and had to work hard to control her emotions.
"Aunt Lan, when did you return home for the past month?" Zhang Xiao suddenly asked about the time of Mu Chen"s return and decided to wait for his return in Mu Family tonight. She was going to start her spicy stick business again tomorrow night, and the time to get off work was changed to four o"clock in the evening. This was what Mu Chen had promised her when they had signed the agreement.
Aunt Lan thought for a bit before replying, "Usually, it is after eleven in the morning or before three in the morning."
Hearing that, Zhang Xiao frowned her delicate eyebrows.
He was so busy?
While they were talking, they had already reached the first floor.
Aunt Lan was preparing to send Zhang Xiao out, but Zhang Xiao just stood there and did not leave. Aunt Lan looked at her in puzzlement, and asked: "Miss Zhang, what"s wrong?"
Zhang Xiao left Aunt Lan"s side and walked towards the sofa. She sat down in front of the sofa and picked up a fashionable magazine from under the table, leisurely flipped through it and replied Aunt Lan: "Aunt Lan, I"m not leaving. I"m waiting here for Mr. Mou to come back, I want to talk to him."
The Aunt Lan smiled indifferently: "Then you wait here for me, I"ll go back to my room and watch TV. Oh right, if Miss Zhang wants to watch TV, you can go watch it in the living room. "
"I will." Zhang Xiao replied Aunt Lan as she flipped through the magazine.
Aunt Lan warned her a little before hurriedly returning to her room to watch TV series.
Being a servant in Mu Family, night time was the most free and relaxed. There was no need to wait upon others. And everyone"s room was equipped with WebTV. What TV do you want to watch?
There was only Zhang Xiao left in the hall.
"Ring, ring, ring …"
The cellphone"s ringtone suddenly rang, loud to the point of being ear-piercing.
Zhang Xiao held onto the magazine with one hand and took out her phone with the other. Seeing that "Gao Shao Liang" was flashing on her phone, she smiled and pressed the answer b.u.t.ton.
Gao Shao Liang would call her every day. He would either ask her out for dinner or ask her out to play.
Although Gao Shao Liang did not say anything, his actions had already told Zhang Xiao that her Old cla.s.smate was just as Ye Qing had said, chasing after her.
"Zhang Xiao, did you get off work?"
Gao Shao Liang"s gentle voice came out from the phone.
"Not yet. Is something the matter?" When Gao Shao Liang still had not broken that layer of paper, Zhang Xiao had already treated Gao Shao Liang as a friend and a cla.s.smate. Even if Gao Shao Liang tore that layer of paper, she would not intentionally avoid him.
Although she had a knot in her heart, did not believe in love, did not believe in marriage, but she was not the kind of person who only knew how to avoid things. Thus, she would calmly face every suitor and tell them that it was impossible for them to do so.
Some people would tactfully turn around, while others would continue to pester them, thinking that they would be in love with each other in the long run.
Zhang Xiao always said that long periods of time might not give birth to feelings, and it would make her sick. For example, her parents.
Gao Shao Liang smiled gently, "Can I go and wait for you to get off work?"
Zhang Xiao"s beautiful eyes flashed, and then very obediently refused. "Shao Liang, there"s no need.
"Well, what time do you get off work?" Gao Shao Liang immediately questioned his closely. Realizing that he was asking a little anxiously, he quickly explained, "Zhang Xiao, I didn"t mean anything else. I was just worried about you. You got back to your rented apartment after work from Royal Courtyard. It was a long journey, and since you were riding a bicycle, your car was even further away. It was not safe on the road. I just happened to be free tonight, so I wanted to pick you up from work. "
Gao Shao Liang was not stupid. He knew that Zhang Xiao only thought of him as the Old cla.s.smate and didn"t have any other intentions, so he didn"t dare to confess to Zhang Xiao rashly. He was afraid that if he confessed, he wouldn"t even be able to be a friend.
Zhang Xiao laughed, "Shao Liang, thank you for your good will. I have something I need to talk to Mr. Mou about, and will be waiting for him to return home. If it"s too late, I will stay in Mu Family for the night. Even if I cannot borrow a place to stay, I will still get Xiujie to come and pick me up. He has a car. "
At this point, Gao Shao Liang could only smile, "That way, I won"t have to worry."
Zhang Xiao thanked him once again. No matter what, it was a happy thing to be cared for by a gentle handsome brother.
, I have a date with w.a.n.g Ping and the rest to go fishing at the lake in the park, do you want to come along?...
Zhang Xiao was still smiling: "Shao Liang, I am so sorry, I may not have the time. You know, I am just a nanny servant. I also have to start anew tomorrow. It"s been almost two months since the market closed, if I don"t open up for business now, the customers acc.u.mulated over the past few months will all be gone. "
Gao Shao Liang was a little disappointed, but he did not reveal it on his face. Instead, he said gently: "Don"t go too far, you must pay attention to rest, and don"t be tired. I"ll look after your stall tomorrow night. "
Zhang Xiao giggled: "Shao Liang, you are central hospital"s slightly famous pediatrician, I believe many parents know you, you look like it"s easy to remember. Are you sure you want to help me look at the stand? That would be a waste of talent. "
"It"s also a good thing to get some social experience."
Zhang Xiao agreed straightforwardly: "Since that"s the case, then I won"t be polite and use a talented student like you. "Don"t worry. Help me look after the stall. I"ll give you a salary. I definitely won"t let you suffer a loss."
Gao Shao Liang also laughed, "Why do you have to talk about money, it"s too foreign to talk about money."
After the two of them chatted for a while, Zhang Xiao took the initiative to end the call.
Anyway, I have a night with her tomorrow.
After hanging up, Zhang Xiao continued to look through her magazines. When she finished reading one, and saw that it was still early, she got up and walked into the living room. She sat on the sofa in the living room and watched TV.
She was in the catering business now, so when she was watching TV, she liked to watch gourmet food shows and learn to cook from the chefs on TV. Most of her good culinary skills were obtained from countless of practice through gourmet food shows.
The night was getting darker.
Zhang Xiao watched the TV until her eyelids were full. After yawning twice, she could no longer hold on and leaned against the sofa, closing her eyes, telling herself to take a nap. As long as she heard the sound of Mu Chen coming back to the car, she would immediately wake up from her dream.
When Mu Chen returned, before the carriage even entered the courtyard, he noticed that there were still lights burning inside the house.
