Chapter 1678: one thousand six hundred seventy-eight
When Ning Xiner suddenly saw him, she couldn't believe her eyes. This... isn't that coincidental?
At this time, he had already walked to Ning Xiner. He looked at Ning Xiner who was staring at him stupidly and smiled: "What's wrong? I was so stupid when I saw me."
At this time, Ning Xiner recovered and smiled and said, "No, I just didn't expect to meet you."
"I didn't expect to meet you, and I didn't expect you to really come to Sanya." There was a hint of surprise in Peter Chen's eyes.
Upon hearing this, Ning Xiner lowered her head and smiled, saying, "Sanya is indeed a good place with all seasons of spring, so I came."
"By the way, where are you going?" Peter Chen asked with a frown.
After all, today is New Year's Eve, and people are preparing for the New Year at home, and the streets are deserted.
Ning Xiner replied: "I want to go to the supermarket to buy some fruit."
"I just came back from the airport and went to the supermarket to buy some fruit. Today is New Year's Eve. My mother is preparing supper at home. Why don't you come to my house for the New Year?" Peter Chen warmly sent an invitation.
Although Ning Xiner was very grateful to Peter Chen's invitation, Ning Xiner still declined: "I will not disturb your family of three for the New Year. I have prepared the ingredients needed for supper."
Peter Chen insisted, "Xin'er, since we are friends, when you come to Sanya, I will naturally have to do my best as a landlord. I have no other intentions. If other friends are alone in Sanya, I will invite them to my house for the New Year. Of course, you are not the first friend I invited to go back to my house for the New Year. In previous years, if a friend stayed here on New Year's Eve, he would go home with me for the New Year."
"But..." Ning Xiner still wanted to say something.
However, Peter Chen did not give her a chance, and reached out to pull her by her arm and pulled her into the car. "Don't let it go, hurry up and buy some fruit with me, and then go to my house for the New Year's Eve dinner."
In this way, Ning Xiner had no choice but to follow Peter Chen to the supermarket first and then to Peter Chen's house.
When entering Peter Chen's house, Ning Xiner was stunned by everything in front of her!
She has also been to many rich families, but she has never been to many high-end, luxurious and bookish families like Peter Chen’s family.
The house is big, all with brown and red decorations and furniture. The low-key luxury is full of cultural atmosphere, which makes Ning Xiner very restrained.
Ning Xiner was holding a fruit basket and holding a bouquet of flowers in her arms. She stood in the center of the living room. Peter Chen then helped a woman in her fifties and very elegant walk to her.
"Auntie, happy new year, I wish you eternal youth!" Ning Xiner quickly handed over the flowers in her arms with her hands.
Chen's mother smiled and took the flowers from Ning Xiner's hand and said, "Miss Ning, thank you."
At this time, Ning Xiner found that Chen's mother was secretly looking at her. Ning Xiner couldn't help but lower her head, a little embarrassed.
Because although Chen's mother's eyes were enthusiastic, they were sharp, as if she wanted to see through her.
Chen's mother was wearing a burgundy little suit with her hair tied high behind her head. The jadeite on her chest was very eye-catching. She looked like a shrewd and capable professional woman from the official wife.
Seeing Chen's mother looking at her, Ning Xiner felt very regretful that she had come to her house with Chen Peter, but it was too late to say anything now.
"Mom, I'm starving to death, can I have a meal?" At this time, Peter Chen discovered the stagnation in the air, so he quickly smoothed out the situation.
At this time, Chen's mother hit Peter Chen's back and said with a smile and a angrily: "What are you going to die during the Chinese New Year? Can't you say something auspicious?"
Chen's mother then smiled at Ning Xiner and said, "Miss Ning, don't laugh at me, my son is speechless."
Ning Xiner smiled and said nothing.
Afterwards, Ning Xiner and Peter Chen and his son walked into the restaurant.
The restaurant is very large, with long tables and chairs, which can accommodate more than a dozen people to eat at the same time. The crystal chandeliers illuminate the food on the dining table so beautifully, and the dishes are also very exquisite.
"Mom, did you make this by yourself?" Peter Chen smiled at the dish in front of him.
"Where do I have that time? This is what I asked the chef from the hotel to come back. After ordering this, I asked them all to go back." Chen's mother smiled.
Ning Xiner looked at the exquisite food in front of her and thought to herself: No wonder the food is so exquisite. It turned out that she was cooked by the hotel chef.
At this time, Chen's mother
Suddenly he looked at Ning Xiner and smiled, "Miss Ning, what job are you doing? Who else is there in the family?"
Upon hearing this, Ning Xiner replied politely: "Aunt, I am an accountant. My parents have divorced since I was a child. They all organized their own families, so now I live alone."
Hearing this, Chen's mother's face sank slightly, but there was still a smile on her face. "You are a woman, and you are quite hard-working. I think you should be not young, right? You have had a boyfriend before?"
After hearing this, Ning Xiner was stunned. Unexpectedly, Chen's mother would ask her such a question.
At this time, Peter Chen frowned and said, "Mom, I brought my friend back for dinner, why did you check your household registration?"
"You kid, I care about you, my friend, Miss Ning, don't care. I see you are kind-hearted, so I want to know your situation." Chen's mother still had a smile on her face, but her eyes were sharp and distance.
At this time, Ning Xiner realized that Chen's mother probably misunderstood her relationship with Peter Chen and thought she was interested in Peter Chen.
So, the next moment, Ning Xiner smiled and said, "Peter, Auntie is right. My aunt and I hit it off at first sight. Of course, we need to learn more. Auntie, I have been married for seven years and just divorced. I have a job with Peter. Today I happened to meet him on the street. He saw me spending the New Year alone, and it was deserted, so out of the kindness of my friend, I asked me to come here for the New Year's Eve dinner. In fact, Peter and I are just ordinary friends, so I am very moved. Peter is a kind person and always willing to help others."
After hearing this, Chen's mother frowned first, and then her brows loosened again, because she had already understood from Ning Xiner's words that Ning Xiner had no interest in her son, they were just ordinary friends.
"Yes, yes, Peter has been kind since he was a child and loves to make friends, regardless of gender." The next moment, Chen's mother became happy.
At this time, Peter Chen and Ning Xiner's eyes collided in the air. Peter Chen lost any interest, but Ning Xiner became much more calm.
Afterwards, Peter Chen's father walked out of the study. Chen's father was a high-ranking official, but he was approachable and very enthusiastic about Ning Xiner. Ning Xiner could be said to have a delicious New Year's Eve dinner at the Chen family.
