Chapter 559 Xixi's Harbor

Ying Chanxi felt his mood was in a mess.

After staying in the bathroom for more than ten minutes and washing my face with cold water several times, I finally broke free from the inexplicable irritability and regained my calm.

By the time she came out of the bathroom, lunch was over.

Today it was Li Luo and Yan Zhusheng's turn to clean up the dishes, but after Ying Chanxi saw it, he also quietly joined in to clean up.

It seems that only by finding something to do can I occupy my brain's thinking space and stop myself from thinking about random things.

Li Luo didn't notice anything unusual about Ying Chanxi, and just asked, "Why did you stay in the bathroom for so long?"

"...My stomach feels uncomfortable." Ying Chanxi barely found an excuse to deal with it.

"Did you eat something bad?" In the kitchen, Li Luo reached out and touched Ying Chanxi's stomach, then gently squeezed it. "Are you feeling better now?"

"It's okay now." Ying Chanxi's face turned red. She turned her head to look at the living room. After confirming that she couldn't be seen from the sofa at this angle, she felt at ease and enjoyed Li Luo's touch.

As a result, when Li Luo heard her say it was okay, he took his hand back.

Seeing this, Ying Chanxi immediately pulled Li Luo's hand back, pressed it on her stomach, and then whispered, "I suddenly feel a little uncomfortable."

"Will it feel better if you touch it?" Li Luo laughed, and simply walked around behind Ying Chanxi, hugged her soft and petite body with both hands, and put both hands on her belly, gently stroking and kneading it, "Is it better now?"

"Hmm..." Ying Chanxi leaned gently in Li Luo's arms, feeling a little comforted and warm in her heart. Her previously chaotic mood gradually eased.

At this time, Yan Zhusheng, who came into the kitchen carrying dishes from the dining table, paused after seeing this scene, then walked to the sink with a normal expression and put the dishes in it.

Perhaps thinking of something, Yan Zhusheng glanced at Ying Chanxi, and then took the initiative to say, "I want to practice the piano for a while, Xixi, please wash the dishes for me."

Yan Zhusheng, contrary to his usual behavior, took the initiative to give in. He did not say "I want one too" and then force his way in, which surprised Li Luo.

But after seeing Yan Zhusheng's eyes, Ying Chanxi instantly realized Yan Zhusheng's thoughts and attitude.

She pursed her lips and nodded gently at Yan Zhusheng, feeling a little guilty for no apparent reason.

However, after Yan Zhusheng left the kitchen, Ying Chanxi quickly fell into Li Luo's arms, turned around and hugged him tightly.

When she was pressed against the wall by Li Luo and bullied, Ying Chanxi couldn't help feeling strongly stimulated when she thought that the elders were sitting in the living room at this time, and her whole body became dazed by the kiss.

The love in the eyes and the blush on the cheeks turn into a beautiful scene, which makes people feel pity and love.

As a result, it took me more than half an hour to finish washing the bowl.

Ying Zhicheng and Yuan Wanqing in the living room had not left yet. They said they had a whole day off today, so they could stay here.

So Cui Suling suggested going to their house.

Because a while ago an old professor from Qianjiang University retired and returned to his hometown, and there was a mahjong machine in the house that he couldn't take with him.

When Cui Suling heard Xu Rongsheng mention this, she simply bought this second-hand mahjong machine.

Seeing that everyone was still there in the afternoon, Cui Suling simply invited everyone to their home and have dinner there in the evening.

Thinking that there was really nothing to do in the afternoon, there was no other entertainment activities in Bi Hai Lan Ting except for a TV in the living room.

So everyone readily agreed and went downstairs to Bi Hai Lan Ting.

It just so happened that Ying Zhicheng had a car, Li Guohong had a car, and Xu Youyu also had a car. The ten people drove to the Qianjiang University staff building and all the way to Xu Youyu's home.

The mahjong machine was placed in the study by Cui Suling.

Lin Xiuhong called Yuan Wanqing to follow, and then took Xixi with her, and they were the first to take over all the mahjong machines.

Seeing this, Li Luo, Yan Zhusheng and Xu Youyu watched the game from the side. Xu Youyu also turned on the computer in the study to see if there were any games that could entertain him.

On the other side, the three men who stayed in the living room sat on the sofa and watched TV, chatting while watching.

Three grown men, one was the CEO of a film and television company, one was a professor of literature at Qianjiang University, and one was the owner of a hot pot restaurant. It was unknown what topics they had in common, but they were chatting very enthusiastically, and laughter could be heard from time to time.

In the study, Xu Youyu, who didn't find any interesting games, sat back next to his mother.

Yan Zhusheng also obediently sat between Yuan Wanqing and Lin Xiuhong.

As for Li Luo, he glanced at Lin Xiuhong, then at Ying Chanxi opposite him, and finally moved a stool and sat next to Xixi.

Seeing this, Ying Chanxi pursed his lips, glanced at Li Luo beside him, and was in a good mood.

"Wanqing is going to Xiuhong's house to celebrate the New Year again this year?" Cui Suling found topics to chat while playing mahjong.

Yuan Wanqing smiled and nodded: "They have a good relationship with each other. Zhu Sheng and I will spend the New Year alone. It will be more lively if we go there together."

"Xixi's family only has three people celebrating the New Year. In the past, our two families celebrated together every year, just to make it lively." Lin Xiuhong said with a smile, "Besides, it would be so impressive if a big star could come to our place to celebrate the New Year."

Ying Chanxi, who was sitting opposite, listened to the three aunts chatting, pursed his lips, and played mahjong silently.

Li Luo sat aside, peeled an orange for Ying Chanxi and fed it to her with his own hands.

According to Ying Chanxi's personality, she would definitely feel embarrassed if Li Luo fed her food alone in front of so many people.

But at this time she opened her mouth very actively, and even after Li Luo fed her an orange, she urged him in a low voice to have another one.

Cui Suling watched the intimate interaction between Li Luo and Ying Chanxi and felt secretly anxious. She couldn't help but turn her head to glance at her daughter.

Xu Youyu pointed at her mahjong tiles and said, "Mom, why didn't you play this one just now? All the tiles it ate have been played."

"Don't talk too much when you're looking at the cards," Cui Suling said unhappily, "Peel an orange for me."

At this time, Yan Zhusheng had already brought fruit for his mother, and then he did not forget Lin Xiuhong and peeled an orange for her as well.

Lin Xiuhong took it with a smile, and after a while, she ate grapes from Xu Youyu again.

Xixi on the opposite side also played a nine-tube for her to gang, and it was a direct gang.

Playing mahjong is so enjoyable.

"Why are they missing?" Cui Suling suddenly asked in the middle of the fight, "Li Luo, can you go out and take a look?"

The door of the study was not closed, and one could see directly into the living room. As a result, the three grown men who were watching TV on the sofa were nowhere to be seen.

Li Luo got up as he was told, walked out of the study, looked around the living room, and saw three figures leaning against the railing on the balcony.

When I looked closer, I realized that he was smoking.

At this time, Xu Rongsheng was standing in the middle, with Ying Zhicheng and Li Guohong on his left and right. They were leaning against the railings and looking at Qianjiang University not far away. They held a cigarette in their hands and took a puff from time to time.

Because the glass door of the balcony was closed and it was windy outside, Li Luo couldn't hear clearly what the three of them were talking about.

But when Li Luo approached, he found that the expression on Li Guohong's face looked a little surprised, even a little shocked.

"What are you talking about?" Li Luo opened the balcony door and asked curiously.

"Nothing." Ying Zhicheng shook off the ash from his cigarette and was the first to respond, "Just some gossip about the entertainment industry."

"Yeah...indeed." Li Guohong's expression was complicated, and his eyes couldn't help twitching. Xu Rongsheng's expression was normal, but he would occasionally glance at Ying Zhicheng out of the corner of his eye, as if he was still digesting some news.

Li Luo did not suspect anything and chatted with the three fathers on the balcony for a while. When they finished smoking, he turned around and went back to the study.

"They just went to the balcony to smoke."

"Oh." Cui Suling nodded. "Then ask them if they want to play mahjong? We'll probably play until about three o'clock, then we have to go buy groceries."

"Row."

So, it was soon three o'clock in the afternoon.

Cui Suling originally wanted to take Xu Youyu with her to buy groceries.

But Lin Xiuhong also wanted to go, Xixi and Zhusheng wanted to help, so Yuan Wanqing also went along.

The women went to the vegetable market together, leaving only a few grown men at home.

Li Luo was almost dragged away by the girls.

But after the mahjong machine was vacated, the three dads couldn't play alone at home, so Li Luo stayed to keep them company.

While playing mahjong, Xu Rongsheng said, "We can't go on New Year's Eve, and our family here also needs to get together."

"I'll take Su Ling and You Yu with me on the first day of the new year."

"Since the school is on vacation, there is no rush to visit relatives, so you can stay a few more days."

When Li Guohong heard this, he immediately smiled and nodded in agreement: "That's definitely no problem. We have plenty of empty rooms."

"Yes." Ying Zhicheng also nodded and said, "There is an empty room upstairs at Lao Li's place. You and your wife can sleep there."

"Youyu can sleep over at our place. Xixi and Zhusheng are also here, so they can keep you company."

Li Luo listened to the three of them discussing arrangements for the New Year and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "How many days will Uncle Xu stay for the New Year?"

"Yes." Xu Rongsheng said with a smile, "Your countryside has a nice environment, so we'll go over and bother you for a few days."

"Then the New Year's celebration will be even more lively this year." Li Luo also smiled, wishing that the relationship between the elders would be more harmonious.

The four of them continued playing mahjong, and then Xu Rongsheng suddenly said, "Speaking of which, it's a rare opportunity for you to come to our house, so I'll have to cook a couple of dishes for you to try."

Upon hearing this, Li Guohong became interested: "You are showing off your sword skills in front of Guan Gong, right? I haven't shown off my skills for a long time."

"This..." Ying Zhicheng on the other side hesitated, "It's not like I can't make one."

Considering Ying Zhicheng's level, Li Luo was a little worried. Then he rolled his eyes and said simply, "Why don't we let Mom and Aunt Cui cook tonight? Let's cook and let them continue playing mahjong after they come back."

"It's not impossible." Li Guohong said with a smile.

Xu Rongsheng was a little embarrassed: "This is a bit too much trouble."

"No trouble." Ying Zhicheng shook his head, "Anyway, I'll just cook one dish, and you guys can leave the rest."

"Uncle Ying, what are you going to do?" Li Luo asked curiously.

"Xixi likes to eat scrambled eggs with tomatoes, so I'll make this."

"That's fine." Li Luo nodded, "Then I'll help you later."

When Ying Zhicheng heard him say that, he was about to say that it was not necessary, but then he thought about it and recalled Li Luo's cooking skills, so he nodded and said, "Okay, you can help me watch over it."

After the four people discussed it, they waited for Cui Suling to come back with her people. They explained the situation, carried the ingredients into the kitchen, and occupied this precious land.

The women were naturally happy and relaxed, and went back to the study to continue playing mahjong.

period.

Xu Rongsheng personally prepared two home-cooked dishes, and Ying Zhicheng also completed scrambled eggs with tomatoes with the help of Li Luo.

The remaining seven or eight dishes were shared by Li Luo and Li Guohong.

After all, Li Guohong opened his own restaurant and cooked there, and Li Luo was also a chef in his previous life, so he cooks quite fast.

By around six o'clock in the evening, a table full of sumptuous dishes was ready.

The four families of ten people sat together again and enjoyed their dinner.

By the way, we also entered the guessing game.

"This must be made by our Lao Xu. There is also this dish." Cui Suling picked up a piece of fried pork with peppers and pointed to the spicy and sour potato shreds next to it, saying with a smile, "He only knows these two."

"Just tell me if they are delicious." Xu Rongsheng glanced at his wife and sighed, "These two dishes you make are always too spicy. They are not as good as mine."

"Your taste is too bland." Cui Suling rolled her eyes at him and tried other dishes.

At this time, Ying Chanxi stretched out his chopsticks, picked up a piece of scrambled eggs with tomatoes, put it into his mouth and tasted it carefully.

After Ying Zhicheng noticed it, he kept watching Ying Chanxi's reaction.

"Is it delicious?" Li Luo asked from the side.

"Yeah, delicious." Ying Chanxi nodded.

Ying Zhicheng let out a long sigh and a relieved smile appeared on his face.

"This was made by your father. It tastes delicious, right?" Li Luo said with a smile.

When Ying Chanxi heard this, he immediately glanced at him and muttered softly, "Of course I know it was Dad who did it."

If it was made by Li Luo or Li Guohong, it would definitely taste better.

However, this reminded Ying Chanxi of the summer vacation more than two years ago, when the high school entrance examination had just ended. Li Luo cooked a table of dishes for Ying Zhicheng and asked her father if the dishes were delicious.

Ying Chanxi found out about this later and felt a little embarrassed and angry.

Thinking back on it now, she couldn't help but smile.

"What are you thinking about? You're smiling so happily." Li Luo picked up a piece of cola chicken wing he made and put it in her bowl.

Ying Chanxi lowered her head and nibbled on the chicken wings, her taste buds enjoying the deliciousness of the wings. She turned her head and glanced at Li Luo, and it seemed as if there would always be a safe haven in her heart.

"you guess?"

"I guess..." Li Luo really pondered at this time, then suddenly smiled, leaned close to Ying Chanxi's ear, and whispered, "I guess you are wondering whether this dish was made by the real father or the fake father."

As soon as these words were spoken, Ying Chanxi realized that Li Luo, like her, was recalling the interesting things that happened in the past.

Then a certain sweet taste instantly blooms in the buds of my heart.
