Chapter 76
Chapter 76:
The age of forty-something happens to be the most mature period of femininity.
Chi Jia knew her because she was her mother’s best friend, and she used to see each other often. Chi Jia stepped forward and greeted her, “Auntie Yang is here too, long time no see.”
“Yeah, long time no see, Jiajia is getting more and more beautiful.” Yang Lu looked at Chi Lishu beside him and smiled, “I told your mother a few days ago to make an appointment Let’s have dinner together and chat.”
When they looked at each other, Chi Lishu’s expression was subtle.
Chi Jia just smiled awkwardly, and there was a scene in front of her that caught her off guard.
Chi Lishu had the same reaction as Chi Jia, and she was also surprised. After a short pause, she asked, “You…Didn’t you say there is a party at night?”
Mother and daughter were both a little absent-minded.
“I’ll bring my friends to dinner first.”
Friends and girlfriends, the difference between words is a world of difference.
After finishing speaking, Chi Jia subconsciously turned her head to look at Jing Rui, the hand that was holding Jing Rui was now empty, her fingertips rubbed against her pants, and she felt a little at a loss.
Chi Jia let go too quickly, before Jing Rui had time to react.
She broke away her hand without hesitation, making Jing Rui feel sad. And Chi Jia also read the loss in her eyes, and she felt uncomfortable. Just now, why didn’t she continue to hold Jing Rui’s hand and not let go?
Not long ago, she swore to Jing Rui that she would tell her mother about them, but she didn’t even have the courage to hold Jing Rui’s hand. Not to mention Jing Rui, she herself was disappointed with herself.
Jing Rui followed Chi Jia’s gaze, still with a pretty decent smile on her face, there were two women sitting at the table, the age was similar, the one with slightly longer hair should be Chi Jia Mother, because their eyebrows are somewhat similar.
Chi Lishu looks much younger than Jing Rui imagined.
“Hello Auntie, I’m Chi Jia’s friend.” Jing Rui greeted politely first, and when she mentioned the word “friend”, she deliberately looked at Chi Jia.
“Jiajia said she was going to pick up friends in the afternoon, right?” Chi Lishu smiled affectionately, and couldn’t help but stay on Jing Rui for a few more seconds, she was really beautiful and temperamental .
“Yes, trouble Xiaojia.”
Chi Jia hurriedly said, “It should”
The two of them sang and pretended to be ordinary friends. It was like that.
Be quiet again.
The four looked at each other for a while, the atmosphere was a bit strange, but Chi Jia couldn’t tell how strange it was.
“Just the two of you?” Chi Lishu didn’t see anyone else. After exchanging glances with Yang Lu, she said, “Let’s eat together? We are just about to order.”
“Mom…” Chi Jia subconsciously wanted to find a reason to refuse, but the current situation is really embarrassing. Jing Rui answered Chi Jia with a smile, “Will it not disturb Auntie?”
“Why, let’s change the table.”
In this way, the four of them were sitting together in confusion.
Chi Jia was forced to sit down by Jing Rui. She thought about it, but she never thought that Jing Rui and her mother would deal in such a situation.
In fact, the current situation is far more complicated than Chi Jia imagined…
Not long after we sat down, Chi Jiake knew why Jing Rui wanted to stay and eat together. Miss Jing’s wishful thinking was good, and her mouth was even more cunning. Because in just a few minutes, the fox spirit coaxed her mother into ecstasy, and her favorability increased sharply.
As soon as Jing Rui came up, she praised Chi Lishu for her beautiful skin and good skin, and exchanged skin care experience.
Wife and mother get along so harmoniously, Chi Jia thinks she should breathe a sigh of relief?
Jing Rui took over the company’s business for so many years, and she is best at observing words and communicating with people. Now sitting opposite her future mother-in-law, she will naturally be very attentive.
Chi Jia held a teacup and tilted her head to look at Jing Rui. She is really a fox who can make people happy, but it is difficult for someone to dislike a woman as good as Jing Rui. Now the key is , can her mother accept two women together.
“Are you and Xiaojia colleagues or…” Chi Lishu and Jing Rui chatted more and more speculatively.
“I work in L like Xiaojia. We have worked together in the past, and we have known each other for several years. Auntie, you can just call me Rui Rui.”
Chi Jia was drinking tea when she heard Jing Rui suddenly calling herself “Rui Rui”, she almost sprayed a sip of tea on the opposite Yang Lu’s face, and finally choked herself Bundle.
“Cough…” Chi Jia raised her head and brushed her while the other three stared at her at the same time. She took the tissue on the table, wiped her mouth lightly, and pretended that nothing happened.
I ordered a few signature dishes and opened a bottle of red wine. Because Jing Rui could chat, the atmosphere was not so embarrassing.
“Rui Rui, what do you do?”
“Doing investment management and starting a small company.”
Chi Jia glanced at Jing Rui, a small company, and Boss Jing is modest enough. Her mother was too, and Rui Rui called each other so affectionately that it was hard to imagine that this was the first time the two met.
“It’s not easy to start your own business,” Chi Lishu and Jing Rui met unexpectedly, chatting, but still couldn’t help but admire, “You’re so beautiful and capable, now you…”
Chi Jia thought her mother was going to introduce a partner to her fox spirit next, but she was in a hurry. Before Chi Lishu finished speaking, she raised her head and interrupted, “Mom! She The famous flower has an owner! Don’t worry about it!”
Seeing Chi Jia’s nervous expression, Jing Rui smiled and took a sip of red wine, now she knew she was in a hurry.
“I want you to learn more from others.” Chi Lishu glanced at Chi Jia, “Look at you, you are twenty-five years old, and you still look like someone who hasn’t grown up.”
“I just like Jiajia, she is cute and very sensible.” Yang Lu praised Chi Jia, and then half-jokingly said, “If only I had such a daughter.”
“Cough…” Chi Lishu suddenly cleared her throat, then made a gesture with her eyes.
“Mom, Auntie Yang is much better than you. I’ll treat her as a daughter.” Chi Jia said with a smile, picked up the wine glass and touched Yang Lu, and drove the car. Can’t drink alcohol, so use orange juice instead.
“Okay.” Yang Lu smiled, then rubbed Chi Lishu’s arm affectionately, raised her eyebrows at her, and asked in a low voice, “Did you hear me? , do you have an opinion?”
“If you want, I don’t mind.”
“Of course I would.”
There is something in the words.
Chi Jia looked at her mother and wondered, is it necessary to laugh so happily after saying such a few words?
Jing Rui’s eyes are sharp and sensitive, and she seems to have caught some intriguing clues.
Since I just came to the topic of finding a partner, Chi Lishu asked Chi Jia by the way, “When are you going to bring your boyfriend back for Mom to meet?”
Chi Jia’s hand froze, thinking, my “boyfriend” is sitting across from you.
Chi Lishu just finished asking this question…
“Uh…” Chi Jia frowned, gasping for breath, she turned her head to look at Jing Rui, Jing Rui was eating with a smile on her face, as elegant as possible.
Under the table, Jing Rui stepped on Chi Jia’s instep, showing no mercy. If you don’t confess that it’s your girlfriend, it’s just a boyfriend.
In fact, I can’t blame Chi Jia, she just admitted that she has a partner, and her boyfriend is completely the default of Chi Lishu.
“What’s wrong?”
“I bit my tongue…” Chi Jia casually found a reason, and then threw the question to her mother, “I also want to ask you, when will I meet my future father? ?”
“Don’t talk nonsense.” Chi Lishu’s eyes warned Chi Jia.
Chi Jia thought it was inconvenient for Chi Lishu to talk about this issue now, so she winked, “You know what I mean anyway.”
A few people ate and chatted, and it was over an hour later. When they walked out of the restaurant, Chi Lishu heard that Jing Rui was staying at the hotel, so she invited her to stay at home.
Jing Rui hadn’t spoken yet, but Chi Jia quickly refused, “The hotel has been booked, don’t worry about it, I know how to arrange it.”
Chi Lishu understands the minds of young people, and she is restrained when she lives there, so she doesn’t say anything more.
“Mom, that…” Chi Jia folded her hair and lied again naturally, “We have other parties in the evening, I may go back later.”
Jing Rui smiled and took Chi Jia’s arm, turned her head and gave her a look to let her experience it slowly.
Miss Chi understood in seconds, and she wanted to survive, and immediately added to Chi Lishu, “If it’s too late… I won’t go back.”
Chi Lishu looked at her, “Are you and Rui Rui together?”
Chi Jia nodded, “Let’s go together.”
Hearing that she was with Jing Rui, Chi Lishu was not so worried, but told Chi Jia, “It’s fun, don’t drink too much alcohol.”
Jing Rui smiled, “Don’t worry, Auntie, I will watch her.”
“I’m relieved she’s with you.”
How harmonious this scene is, Chi Jia really hopes that her mother can say this with a smile after knowing her relationship with Jing Rui.
Chi Jia still drives Chi Lishu’s car, and Yang Lu also drives, “Auntie Yang, then please take my mother back.”
“Goodbye.”
A little snow fell in the sky.
It was chilly.
Chi Jia and Jing Rui stood side by side on the street, their eyes following the backs of Chi Lishu and Yang Lu not far away, arm in arm, each thinking.
In the past, Chi Jia was always worried that her mother’s relationship was not safe, but now she can rest assured. At first, when Chi Lishu said that she was doing well, she was not relieved, but now she can really feel it, her mother The state is very good, even a little bit like a little woman in love. She also had a big wish.
“What are you looking at, so serious?” Chi Jia turned to Jing Rui, stretched out his hand and shook it in front of her.
Jing Rui returned to her senses, stared at Chi Jia, and said nothing.
Chi Jia hurriedly took Jing Rui’s hand and held it in his palm, warmed it intimately, rubbed and breathed, and couldn’t wait to express herself, for fear that she was just an ordinary friend, and Jing Rui was angry with her again. Angrily, “Are my hands extremely warm?”
Jing Rui looked at their clasped hands now, a little helpless, she whispered, “It’s a bit cold, go back to the hotel.”
Get in the car, Chi Jia turned the steering wheel and drove towards the hotel. Along the way, the two didn’t talk much, maybe they thought more or less in their hearts.
Back at the hotel, just as Jing Rui took off her high heels, Chi Jia hugged her from behind.
A hug in winter is extra warm.
Chi Jia quietly hugged her for a while, and the first sentence she said was: “I admit my mistake.”
It is not so much that she is afraid of Jing Rui being angry with her, it is better to say that she is afraid that Jing Rui will be disappointed with her. A look of disappointment flashed across Jing Rui’s face.
Jing Rui asked knowingly, and said softly, “What’s wrong?”
“I shouldn’t have thrown your hand away.” Chi Jia was sure that when she shook Jing Rui away, Jing Rui must have felt bad, and she also felt that she was going too far.
Jing Rui knew that for Chi Jia, the psychological pressure of coming out of the closet was not small, and in such a sudden situation, Chi Jia was unlikely to introduce herself to her mother as a girlfriend.
“I was wrong.” Chi Jia said dully again, admitting his mistake very sincerely.
Jing Rui didn’t want to put any more pressure on Chi Jia, she turned around, but smiled lightly, “Well, kiss me and I’ll forgive you.”
Chi Jia was stunned and moved, she hugged Jing Rui tightly. She was probably blind before, so she didn’t realize that Jing Rui was good, “Would you like to be so gentle and considerate…”
“I fell into your hands, you know?” Jing Rui also hugged Chi Jia tightly, helpless but willing.
“I promise you, there will be no next time.” Chi Jia made up her mind and wanted to confess this matter to Chi Lishu as soon as possible and fulfill the promise she made to Jing Rui before. Jing Rui had said that she would accompany her to face it, but she was trying to escape like a tortoise.
Chi Jia hugged Jing Rui, stared into her eyes and said seriously, “Meet my mother again, I mean you are my wife and I want to marry you, no, yes You’re going to marry me…”
“So this year’s proposal, will you agree to me?”
“You can try it.”
Chi Jia kissed Jing Rui twice, held her face and asked, “What do you think of my mother? She seems to like you very much.”
From an optimistic point of view, at least her mother is very satisfied with Jing Rui.
“I can’t figure it out. Your mother has such a good personality, why are you such a bad temper? Like a little tigress.”
“Please, everyone in the company calls me a goddess. How come you are either a dog or a tiger…”
“I’m praising you for being special.”
“There’s a reason to hurt me…”
Jing Rui smiled and pressed Chi Jia’s lips again, her voice drowned in the small kisses.
“I’ll invite my aunt to dinner tomorrow night, and we’ll have a serious chat with her.” Jing Rui came here on purpose this time, just because she didn’t want Chi Jia to face it alone, and Chi Jia was impatient again.
“Tomorrow night?” Chi Jia said unexpectedly.
Jing Rui thought for a moment and said, “I think your mother will understand us.”
“How do you see that?”
Chi Jia thought what a wonderful analysis Jing Rui could give, but only heard Jing Rui say, “A woman’s intuition.”
