Chapter 292: Have a glass of iced Americano, the kind that will be as bitter as my life

"How's it going, my big star? I heard that you stayed with us until one or two in the morning to record yesterday."

At ten o'clock in the morning the next day, Chen Lai sent condolences to Han Muxue, who had just woken up and was still sleepy.

"It's okay, but I'm just too sleepy. It's really hard for girls nowadays. They have to be good-looking and know how to do this and that."

Han Muxue was so angry that she got out of bed with bare feet. As soon as she walked to the living room, she saw Ling Ziyue on the table who had gone to work early in the morning. The breakfast left behind included both Chinese and Western food, which was rich in nutrition. She smiled knowingly and picked up a sandwich.

She took a big bite of the beef sandwich. It was still warm and much tastier than the ones sold outside. She opened her eyes wide and took another big bite before she could swallow it. She was very surprised. Good guy, Ling Zi is doing it more and more.

The level of food has really improved by leaps and bounds. If this continues, if she leaves him in the future, she may not be able to eat well.

"What are you eating? It smells so good?"

Chen Lai clearly heard the sound of the other party chewing, and was a little greedy. He raised his hand to get something to eat, only to find that he had nothing. He had to sigh and picked up the only unpacked potato bag left on the table.

Start chewing the slices.

"Sandwiches made by Ling Ziyue are particularly delicious."

Han Muxue was very satisfied with her meal. She also vomited violently last week and had no appetite. Thanks to Ling Zi's use of various methods, she was finally able to eat well.

"very nice."

Chen Lai murmured enviously.

"Where's Gu Yan? Didn't he go up the pole to take care of you?"

"Let's talk about ours, don't mention him if nothing happens."

"Just waste it like this, don't worry if you can't do it alone."

"How about you move here and we live together, so we can take care of each other. That would be great."

"Forget it, you and Lingzi are getting along well, what should I do, make light bulbs? Am I crazy?"

Chen Lai rolled his eyes, a little sour.

"Anyway, don't take care of things yourself. What's the point of showing off?"

"Your parents are back?"

"It's better to go back. My mother is here. She said she wanted to take care of me. She goes out to dance early every morning, but there is no one around."

Chen Lai shook his head helplessly.

"Just wait, I'll ask Xiaoyun to bring you some food and drink later."

"No, it's too much trouble."

"Why are you being polite to me?"

"Oh, by the way. I noticed the powerful girl named Xirui you mentioned. She is quite powerful."

"Yes, yes, what I said is right."

Hearing Han Muxue mention the person he strongly recommended, Chen Lai suddenly became excited and started talking.

"She had been on our show before. At that time, I thought she was talented, but no one noticed her. I didn't have much say at that time. Otherwise, I would have found a way to put her on the big stage! She deserves it!"

"But she is a bit gloomy, haven't you noticed?"

Even though she knew that Chen Lai was very fond of Xi Rui, Han Muxue still had to say what was in her heart.

"Alas, her family background was not good, and her family had always been strongly opposed to her pursuit of her artistic dream. Later, the whole family was buried in a sea of ​​fire, leaving only a grandmother in her seventies, living alone in the countryside, which was quite rough."

"oh."

Han Muxue's mind was filled with the strange necklace around her neck. Whenever she thought of it, she would occasionally see Xi Rui wearing her strange pendant, with her gloomy face that was difficult to distinguish.

The muscles of her right eye began to tremble uncontrollably.

After much thought, she still did not tell Chen Lai about her dangerous thoughts. After all, such unfounded conjectures would only make Chen Lai disgusted.

The friendship between them has not been easy to reach today.

"Anyway, as a mentor, you must pay more attention to our Xi Rui and give her more opportunities. She will definitely not let you down!!"

Chen Lai seized the opportunity and gave Han Muxue another advantage. She said she was not bothered, and Han Muxue could feel his ears getting calloused.

"Okay, okay, I understand. I must pay more attention and give her more opportunities to show off."

"Then it's settled, bye~"

Before Han Muxue could hesitate, Chen Lai hung up the phone and there was a rapid knock on the door.

"coming!"

As soon as she heard this, she knew that this was her mother's return. Sure enough, outside her door, her mother had finished her morning exercise. She was carrying large and small bags with a lot of things. It seemed that she went to the supermarket alone for a big purchase.

"Mom, you didn't even call me when you went to the supermarket. How could you get so many things?"

"It's not like I bought them all. Well, I don't know who sent those."

Mother Chen pouted and asked her daughter to see for herself.

Indeed, there are many bags placed one meter square near the door of the house, neatly stacked.

There was everything to eat and drink. Chen Lai opened the chilled box. There were even a lot of deep-sea fish in it. The sea cucumbers that Chen Lai had always missed were tonic, dried and fresh. They were packed into a large box each. They were top quality.

Abalone, matsutake, and mushrooms can be seen everywhere. In the last big foam box, when you open it, there are chickens, ducks and pigeons that have been killed naked. Chen Lai felt sick and rushed in the door to vomit.

"Seriously, little Gu, why did you buy so many messy things and put them at the door?"

The mother chased Chen Lai into the bathroom and rubbed her back. She was worried and speechless about Gu Yan's behavior.

"Mom, don't take the things."

Chen Lai went to the pool with resentment and poured water to wash away the sour water from his mouth, while not forgetting to turn around and ask his mother.

"Why don't you want it, silly girl? He owes you everything in the first place, so don't give it up for free!"

"Mom~"

While Chen Lai tried to dissuade her, he pulled his mother's sleeves. During the process, she accidentally fell down and hit her knee.

"Are you okay, Lailai?"

As soon as Chen's mother leaned down, the door of Chen Lai's house was immediately knocked open by an uninvited guest, making her more nervous than ever.

His first action when he came in was to skillfully pick up Chen Lai and rush out the door, regardless of what happened.

Until Chen Lai's cold voice sounded in his ears.

"You lied to me?"

Gu Yan just woke up as if from a dream, and stared blankly at Chen Lai, who was staring at him, with an unnatural expression.

"What did I lie to you about?"

"Didn't you say you are penniless? You don't even have money for food."

"Yes, I have no money."

Gu Yan's voice was a little weak.

"Then these, where did these come from?"

Chen Lai went down to the ground and pointed at these things angrily.

"Don't tell me I borrowed it."

"No, my own money, the return on investment projects."

"You finally got some money, and you just squander it like this? The young master still hasn't changed his nature."

"I can earn it myself and spend some money on my wife and children. What's wrong?"

"Why do you accuse me of everything?"

"I don't need it, you go back."

Gu Yan, who had a bad meal at Chen Lai's n-city, wandered aimlessly on the streets of City C. After smelling the smell, he went to a beverage shop that had almond tea.

His face was full of bitterness.

"any drinks?"

The shop owner already knew him, and he still had a deep memory of this man who chased his wife for a long time.
