Chapter 1288: As If I’d Believe You
He Jinxuan looked at Xinyan and chuckled, "It’s alright, I told them you’re particular about your bed, and you only fell asleep late last night."Xinyan pinched He Jinxuan’s ear and said, "Do you believe that?"
He Jinxuan pulled her into his arms, "As long as they believe it, it’s fine."
Xinyan said irritably, "Let go of me quickly, let’s go and have breakfast; it’s not good to keep everyone waiting for us."
He Jinxuan kissed Xinyan’s face, "Got it, let’s go."
When they arrived, the sister-in-law was ladling out porridge, and Xinyan felt a bit embarrassed, "Sister-in-law, let me help you."
Wang Erni saw her coming in and laughed, "You’re used to living in houses with heaters, staying in our house with the coal stove must be uncomfortable. Tonight, when you sleep, put a basin of water in the room, it’ll be better."
Xinyan didn’t expect her sister-in-law to really believe He Jinxuan’s words, nodded, "Alright, I’ll try it tonight, it really is quite dry."
Wang Erni glanced outside and whispered in Xinyan’s ear, "The second family couple is not cut out for business, the money you lent them probably has all been lost.
I think they haven’t given up yet, you better watch out."
Xinyan didn’t expect her sister-in-law to talk about this with her, but she was still grateful, "Thank you, sister-in-law, for the reminder."
As soon as she finished speaking, her mother-in-law came in, "The main family, cut another plate of your pickled vegetables; I see Jinxuan and Xinyan like eating them, they’d go well with the porridge."
Wang Erni responded with a smile, "Alright, I’ll cut some right away. If you like them, take some with you when you leave."
Although what she pickled was also good, and with the Space Stream Water, the taste was naturally impeccable, but since her sister-in-law said so, she naturally couldn’t be ungrateful, "Alright, sister-in-law, we must take some with us when we leave; Mom is right, they’re perfect with porridge."
Wang Erni, seeing she wasn’t picky, smiled broadly, "Alright, take some more when the time comes."
Just after finishing breakfast, the car horn outside on the street was heard.
It snowed a lot last night, but the jeep’s high chassis made it no problem.
Mr. Ye’s people are indeed capable; they somehow borrowed a jeep from somewhere, together with the jeep they drove in before, heading to the mechanical factory.
Thankfully, a large vehicle had already paved the way, or else it would be really hard to see the path through the white snow.
He Jinxuan, familiar with the route, led the way at the front, Mr. Ye’s people followed behind, thankfully it was all dirt roads now, plus there were fewer vehicles, the snow hadn’t been compacted, even on uphill segments, the car showed no signs of sliding.
But Xinyan still reminded He Jinxuan, "We should head back earlier this afternoon."
He Jinxuan smiled at Xinyan, "Alright, I’ll listen to you."
Since they had called Lu Haibo in advance, as soon as they reached the entrance of the mechanical factory, they saw Lu Haibo and Zhao Jianlan waiting there.
As soon as Xinyan opened the car door, an excited Zhao Jianlan rushed forward and hugged her, "Xinyan."
Stomping her feet joyfully, her face full of smiles, "This morning, Lu Haibo told me you guys were coming, at first I didn’t quite believe it, then I thought with all the snow last night, it might be inconvenient for you to come over, and couldn’t reach you, I was almost worried to death."
Xinyan smiled at Zhao Jianlan, "I originally planned to surprise you, didn’t expect Lu Haibo to sell us out early in the morning for the sake of pleasing you."
Lu Haibo, feeling somewhat embarrassed, but with a smile always at the corner of his mouth, "I was just worried the snow would stop you, wanted to vent to someone."
Xinyan and He Jinxuan both wore expressions saying: who’d believe you.
Prompting Lu Haibo to raise his hands and surrender, "Alright, alright, I admit, it was just to make Jianlan happy."
As soon as he said that, everyone still in the car burst into laughter.
Ye Silai and Ye Siyan laughed even louder, "Uncle Lu, you’ve finally found a wife, we don’t blame you."
Lu Haibo pushed aside his buddy in front and went straight towards the two kids, "Uncle Lu really dotes on you two."
He said, lifting the two little guys one in each arm, "You two little ones, did you miss Uncle Lu?"
Ye Silai just nodded with a smile and didn’t say anything, but Ye Siyan directly kissed Lu Haibo’s cheek, "Uncle Lu, can you feel it?"
Lu Haibo was startled by the kid’s cheeky move, lightly tapping Ye Siyan’s butt, "Kiddo, who taught you this?"
Ye Liyan hadn’t expected his son would suddenly do this, he himself felt a bit embarrassed, coughed lightly, and pulled Ye Siyan from Lu Haibo’s arms, "Ye Siyan, where’d you learn that?"
Ye Siyan pouted and glanced at everyone, "Teacher Zhang’s partner did this, then asked us if Teacher Zhang could feel it?"
Ye Liyan was truly a bit upset now, thankfully they’ll be staying in Beijing afterwards; however, he must call the school and give some feedback, otherwise, it might corrupt the kids.
