Chapter 41: Jianghu Liars

Xu Bai also felt a little confused about this situation. Maybe this was a magical feeling between mother and daughter.

"Sister Hong, do you need my help?" Xu Bai interrupted Hong Jinghe's doubts.

Hong Jinghe immediately looked up at Xu Bai: "No, no, no."

"You told me to treat me as your own, so it's not too fast for me to take the bowl, right?" Xu Bai teased and said with a smile, not looking like he had seen the weird scene just now.

Hong Jinghe's well-maintained face was also full of smiles: "Okay, okay."

Just when she answered, Xu Bai discovered that Hong Jinghe dialed the cell phone unconsciously and pressed the speaker phone.

The person on the other end quickly answered: "Hey, wife, what's wrong?"

Hong Jinghe seemed not to have heard anything, put her phone next to the sink, and went to serve the food.

He didn't hear an answer, but he wasn't surprised at all. Instead, he said very naturally: "Xiao Taotao, I'm in the garage. I'll be home in about five minutes."

The call was then hung up.

"Xiao Tao's father will be back soon. Xu Bai, go and sit down, Ang."

Everything Hong Jinghe did was very natural, as if it was really Tao Keke who had just finished talking to Tao's father on the phone.

The real Tao Keke was standing next to Hong Jinghe, looking a little at a loss.

Xu Bai quickly brought the bowl and waved to Tao Keke: "Little Tao Tao, let's go out and wait for your father."

Hong Jinghe's words were addressed to Tao Keke in her fantasy, but Xu Bai's words were addressed to the real Tao Keke.

Tao Keke lowered his head and followed Xu Bai out of the kitchen.

If Captain Zhang and the others were here, they might be surprised that they could actually feel human emotions in ghosts. This is truly incredible.

Xu Bai was sitting at the dining table, and Hong Jinghe also came over with a sumptuous lunch.

There was the sound of a key opening the door, and the three people present looked up together.

"Xiao Taotao, honey, I'm back." A man's magnetic voice came from the entrance hall, which made people think he was a mature elite.

Hong Jinghe hurriedly wiped her hands on her apron and went to greet him.

"Thank you for your hard work, husband. I have a guest at home today. She is my tenant, a very beautiful girl." Hong Jinghe helped Tao's father take down the briefcase, with a happy smile on his face, "She is about the same age as little Tao Tao.

, she and I really hit it off."

Father Tao was a little surprised.

Since Xiao Taotao's death, there have been no guests at home for a long time. First, they don't want to expose the secret unintentionally and make Hong Jinghe feel pain. Second, they think it's weird for Hong Jinghe to talk to the air like this.

"Guest?" Tao's father changed into slippers and hurriedly walked into the living room.

In the restaurant, a cute and beautiful little girl stood next to the seat, looking at them with a slight smile.

Father Tao was confused for a moment, almost thinking that his daughter was really back.

"Hurry and wash your hands and eat. Don't keep the guests waiting." Hong Jinghe patted Tao's father on the shoulder angrily.

Father Tao looked at Xu Bai thoughtfully before nodding.

In the restaurant, a sumptuous lunch, four chairs, three people.

However, what Hong Jinghe and Tao's father didn't know was that there was indeed a chair where the daughter they cherished was sitting.

"Xu Bai, try it. Little Tao Tao likes the braised pork I made the most. I don't know if it suits your taste." Hong Jinghe put a piece of meat into the bowls that Xu Bai and Tao Keke gave to Xu Bai and Tao Keke on the expressway, "Ten million

You're welcome."

The braised pork is very fragrant, golden in color, fat but not greasy, and melts in your mouth. Xu Bai couldn't help but praise: "This craftsmanship, no wonder Xiao Tao never forgets it! Xiao Tao, please eat more!"

At this time, Tao Keke was sitting next to Xu Bai, holding the bowl in her arms. Although the contents in the bowl had not moved, she felt as if she had really tasted the braised pork, and her face was full of satisfaction.

"Thank you, Sister Xu Bai." Tao Keke's voice came in a low voice.

"Why are you so polite?"

Tao's father gradually became suspicious when he looked at Xu Bai.

He understood that his wife had hallucinations because she could not accept the death of her daughter, but what was the situation with this guest? Why did he look like he could see little Taotao?

He's not a charlatan, someone who deceives people, is he?

Of course Xu Bai knew about Tao's father's suspicion, but she didn't have the time to care about him. Her mission was just to help Tao Keke fulfill his wish.

Hong Jinghe felt very happy seeing Xu Bai and Tao Keke enjoying their craft very much.

The lunch passed happily like this.

Hong Jinghe quickly put away the bowls, and Tao's father gently hugged her waist: "Just leave it for now. I'll wash it later. I'll go chat with the guests."

"Okay." The two of them seemed to get along like this at home before. Hong Jinghe was not polite and quickly put the bowl into the kitchen and said, "You can entertain the guests first, and I will help little Taotao with her homework."

"Go." Tao's father waved his hand and invited Xu Bai to the balcony.

Tao Keke hesitated for a moment, but chose to follow Xu Bai. She did not want her father to embarrass Xu Bai.

"Father Tao, what do you want from me?" Xu Bai was not nervous, and his demeanor was grand. It was hard for people to believe that a girl like this could be a charlatan.

But even so, Tao's father was not at ease.

He didn't want to see his wife immersed in endless grief.

"Who are you?" Tao Fu got straight to the point.

When Xu Bai was invited by Tao's father, he knew that the other party would ask him some questions.

"I'm Sister Hong's friend. She helped me rent a house in Linxing Community, Room 603." Xu Bai didn't hide it either. It would do her no good to hide it at this moment.

Father Tao looked serious: "603? Which building is 603?"

Xu Bai smiled lightly, which looked soft and harmless in the sunshine, "That's the building Xiao Taotao rented."

Father Tao felt horrified: "Who are you? What do you want to do?!"

He didn't believe that all this was a coincidence. He knew about Little Taotao's situation and rented the house next door to her. Now he even came to his own house, pretending that he could see Little Taotao and defrauding his wife's trust.

Nowadays, the tricks of charlatans are becoming more and more sophisticated, so you really have to be on guard against them!

Xu Bai sighed softly: "I don't have anything to do, I just want to help Sister Hong. She has been like this. Aren't you uncomfortable?"

Although Father Tao was laughing and joking in front of Hong Jinghe, his heart was definitely more painful than hers.

He was sober and pretending to be stupid, knowing all the truth, but he still had to help Hong Jinghe protect the pure land in his heart. In fact, he was under the greatest pressure.

"She doesn't need help." Tao's father said with a cold face, not accepting Xu Bai's words.

Regardless of whether she wanted to deceive or deceive her, or whether she really wanted to help, he would not accept it.
