Chapter 775: Shopping
At seven o'clock, after the final negotiations, Meng Huo signed the contract. After the other people from Phoenix Company left, he took Alice to return to Jiayuan Community by car.
"Don't you go home?" Meng Huo was surprised that Alice didn't go back to her home.
"No, I just returned once a while ago, and I won't go back tonight." Alice smiled and said, "It means I'm leaving again early in the morning, so it's more convenient for me to move with you."
Whether it is the animation of "Clannad" or the negotiations of the joint venture, these are accidents that disrupted many of Meng Huo's scheduled plans. Therefore, he returned to Ninghai for a short time and had to rush back from tomorrow.
"Okay..." Meng Huo nodded.
Back at Jiayuan Community, Li Qin had already prepared their meals. Unexpectedly, there was another person at home.
"Teacher Hua Meng, why are you here?" Meng Huo asked while washing his hands and having dinner.
Teacher Hua Meng didn't eat with them. She had already had dinner at home and was just sitting in the living room now. But her expression was not awkward at all, as natural as at home, and said, "Sister Qin asked me to go out with you tonight to buy things."
"Buy something?" Meng Huo looked at Li Qin strangely.
Li Qin nodded: "I went to your apartment a few months ago. It was empty and I bought the clothes two years ago... When you came back last time, I wanted to buy you some East 8, ww△w. West. You didn't have time at that time, but you have to accompany me tonight."
Meng Huo was stunned: "My clothes are enough."
"Your clothes are too old. Last time, the newspaper said you were not dressing well." Li Qin said dissatisfied, and Alice couldn't help laughing. She knew about this. However, she had reminded Meng Huo before that she needed to change her clothes frequently.
Since the beginning of this year, Meng Huo's exposure has increased significantly. At first, it was fine. Meng Huo dressed up very much after listening to Alice's words. But in the later stage, he didn't care. He often wore the same set of clothes for interviews, which caused some newspapers to complain that he didn't look like a star.
The media pays great attention to these details, even your hairstyle, buttons and shoelaces will be paid attention to He Xi's popularity, so more people try every means to find his topic. But in fact, it is not a big deal.
"I don't think so..." Meng Huo wanted to refuse, but Li Qin glared at him: "If you don't need it, you can buy some nutritional supplements. I think you've lost weight when you work. If you add some nutrition, maybe you can grow taller in just one word."
Although Meng Huo is already very tall now, Li Qin remembered Shen Jie's situation. Girls can continue to grow when they are so old. Maybe Meng Huo can continue to grow taller, and boys always have no harm in getting taller.
Meng Huo was speechless.
"Then I'll go too." Alice smiled and said, "I might be able to help."
Li Qin nodded. When it comes to choosing clothes, no one here can compare to Alice. So after dinner, three women and one man left Jiayuan community. When Meng Huo asked what Mr. Tomato was doing, Hua Meng gave an answer of "Take care of the children at home".
"When you were the assistants of Meng Huo, I thought there was something wrong with you two." Alice said on the way: "But I didn't expect you to get married so quickly. In the blink of an eye, the children could talk..."
Hua Meng nodded: "Yes, four years have passed in the blink of an eye... Teacher He Xi has also become an adult."
She looked at Meng Huo, remembering the surprise when she first saw Meng Huo. The fifteen-year-old boy had grown up in a blink of an eye and had reached a position she could never have thought of.
"Teacher He Xi was very awesome at that time." Hua Meng smiled and said, "It's like a myth now, and it's really unimaginable what it will become in the future..."
"What else can you do? He doesn't have three heads and six arms." Alice looked at Meng Huo, and looked as if she knew his future changes: "No matter how you change, you will still be Meng Huo, right?"
Meng Huo was a little uncomfortable, why did the topic turn to himself?
"Okay, the subway entrance has arrived. Don't talk about this child all the time. What if someone hears it?" Li Qin saw Meng Huo's discomfort and quickly spoke. Alice and Hua Meng turned around and saw that there was indeed a subway entrance not far away with a stream of people, so she didn't say anything more.
Hua Meng was the guide, and she took Meng Huo and the other two to a nearby commercial street by subway.
"There are the most high-end chain stores here, and many cartoonists come here to buy clothes." Hua Meng introduced that in recent years, the income of cartoonists has increased and the consumption level has also been high. She brought the three of them to a luxurious commercial street.
Alice seemed to know this place, and was very familiar with the surrounding shops.
With the help of these two women, Li Qin bought some clothes for Meng Huo, but the situation reversed halfway. Meng Huo encouraged Li Qin to buy clothes. When he was about to go home at 10 o'clock in the evening, Li Qin was surprised to find that she bought more than twice as many things than Meng Huo.
"This... Why does this seem to be coming to buy something for me?" She said something, and Hua Meng and Alice couldn't help laughing.
"I said Sister Qin, you just realized that Teacher He Xi, you are so good at fooling people!", "That's right, he used all the talents he learned to dub in reality..."
During this shopping process, Hua Meng and Alice were also quite surprised. At first, Meng Huo was very obedient in trying on and buying clothes, and then he used the reason of "I'm here anyway, you try it too", which made Li Qin slowly fall into the trap, and finally made Li Qin forget his original intention.
His words were very deceptive, and even Hua Meng and Alice didn't notice it at the beginning.
"Do you use Sister Qin as a practice tool for dubbing?" On the way back, Alice stared at Meng Huo: "This is not very good. Has Lelouch's practice not stopped yet?"
Hua Meng also looked at Meng Huo curiously: "Lelouch, let's say that... Teacher He Xi, you are so good at today's "Rebellious Lelouch"! This is how you practiced your dubbing?"
Lelouch is a person who deceives and controls others with words, and Alice is not wrong. Meng Huo did try to use the dubbing skills to reality tonight, and he is not very satisfied with his dubbing.
Of course, after looking at Li Qin's face, Meng Huo could not make her angry: "No, I'm going back tomorrow. I can't carry too much stuff on my body, that's enough." He lifted the bag on his left hand and four pieces of clothes, but there were seven or eight bags on his right hand: "Mom, don't always talk about me, you have less clothes at home than me."
Li Qin looked at him angrily, but she really wanted to be angry but couldn't get angry.
"You kid... forget it..." She sighed: "Let's go back and ask your grandma to send someone to send her clothes, otherwise it will be a waste if you put them."
The old lady of the Meng family prepared a lot of clothes for Meng Huo, but they were all placed in the Meng family and never moved them much. Meng Huo wore them during the Chinese New Year, but did not take one away after work. Those were professionally customized clothes. Although they had no brand, Meng Huo was worried that someone would find clues about the Meng family.
When Li Qin said this, he was stunned.
"Grandma?" Teacher Hua Meng shouted in surprise: "Teacher He Xi has found grandma? So, Sister Qin, your husband..."
"Ah..." Li Qin realized that she had lost her mouth at this time. The affairs of the Meng family are still secrets. Meng Huo had not said he would go back yet, so he could not be known by others.
"Look at my mouth... Hua Meng, just pretend you have never heard of this." Li Qin looked at Hua Meng with a little nervousness: "Don't say it out, my husband... this matter has not been settled yet..."
Hua Meng was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "I understand."
She was surprised, but when she heard Li Qin's words, Hua Meng suddenly remembered that she had never seen He Xi's father appear, and Li Qin had almost always stayed in Jiayuan Community. This incident was obviously not something worth celebrating.
Alice thought a little further. When she heard the word grandma, she immediately remembered those unknown vehicles that occasionally appeared on comic island to welcome Meng Huo.
"Can't it be... Meng Huo's grandmother is in Suhua City?"
