Chapter 399 The Warm Family Banquet, First Love
As soon as I entered the study, I saw Xiao Xiao leaning on the sofa with a lazy expression, wearing a light white wool skirt, and her black hair that was slightly curly and casually draped on her shoulders made her outstanding appearance look softer and more delicate.
"I didn't expect that you will arrive first today." Li Rui said.
Xiao Xiao glanced at him, nodded, and said, "I've finished the work in advance today, so I'll come here first."
"Oh." Li Rui nodded, but he just didn't know what to say.
After being silent for more than ten minutes, Xiao Xiao suddenly turned around, looked at Li Rui with a complicated expression, and asked, "Lin Kun, do you think we should really get married?"
Li Rui smiled and said, "Why do you ask this suddenly?"
"It's okay, just ask casually."
Li Rui chuckled and shrugged, "We are having a flash marriage after all. It's normal for you to be unaccustomed to life after marriage. You will slowly adapt to it in the future."
Xiao Xiao remained silent.
After a while, he spoke, "My dad just called me."
Li Rui turned to look at her and found a little sadness in her eyes. He guessed that Xiao Dakang must have said something to his daughter on the phone, otherwise, with Xiao Xiao's personality, he would not have come to the house in advance.
"Lin Kun, my dad, he has never been in good health. I don't want him to worry too much about me. I hope we..." At this point, he stopped and his pink face was slightly rosy.
"Do you hope we can pretend to be loving and comfort our father-in-law?" Li Rui knew that with her face, it was impossible for me to say the following sentence to me, so he had to add it to her.
"Yes." Xiao Xiao blushed and nodded slightly.
"You can see that you are also filial." Li Rui turned his back, so he acted as: "But as far as I am, I am your legitimate husband. When you are with me, you don't need to pretend to be kind."
"You..." Xiao Xiao gave him a blank look, feeling angry, but he didn't dare to attack.
She was worried that she had a quarrel with Li Rui at this time. When Xiao Dakang came back later, the relationship between the two would be revealed.
"However, you can't be too hasty in everything. I'm willing to spend this time for you, waiting for you to change your mind and fall in love with me slowly!"
Li Rui turned his head and said confidently.
At this moment, Aunt Hui's call came from downstairs: "Miss, son-in-law, sir, are back, you guys come down quickly."
"Oh, OK, we'll be here right away."
Xiao Xiao quickly stood up and packed up his clothes. She didn't want to be seen by Xiao Dakang in a lazy look.
"Let's go, my dear wife, go and welcome your father-in-law together!" At this time, Li Rui grabbed Xiao Xiao's tenderness with lightning speed.
Although it was not the first time I touched my wife's little hand, I still felt a little comfortable. It was as gentle as jade, as soft as willow catkins, and the touch was excellent.
Xiao Xiao's face changed and he wanted to shake it away, but he seemed to remember what he had just asked, but he could only let him pinch it helplessly. I don't know if it was because of anger or shyness, but it was a little rosy and fluttering. Combined with her almost perfect face, it looked pleasing to the eye.
"Oh, Lin Kun, Xiao Xiao, are you young couple here?"
As soon as Xiao Dakang entered the door, he watched the two of them pinch their hands together and smiled happily, "You young couple are really sticky. They actually came to me and held their hands and didn't put them down. They were not afraid that I, the old man, would be jealous."
Under Xiao Dakang's slightly gray hair, his kind eyes were gone, but he had the kind of open-mindedness and cheerfulness of an old man.
After hearing what my father said, Xiao Xiao naturally shook Li Rui's hand away, stepped forward to support Xiao Dakang, and said coquettishly, "Dad, didn't you tell me about the company's affairs in the future? Why do you have to go on a business trip in person?"
"Xiao Xiao, dad is not that bad." Xiao Dakang laughed and let Xiao Xiao help him into the house.
"Dad, I didn't say that you are useless. You have retired now and shouldn't do anything like this. It's hard for me to do this."
"Oh, no matter what, I am also the chairman of Wanjiang. Besides, business trips are not a hard work. I just travel while on a business trip." Xiao Dakang, who was used to the surname Xiao twisted Xiao's nose, and a hint of pity and tenderness flashed in his eyes.
"Yes, yes, whatever you say makes sense." Xiao Xiao said helplessly.
At this time, Aunt Hui built the tea and brought it to the tea table.
"Sir, you are busy with a ride and have a cup of tea to warm your body." Aunt Hui smiled.
"Okay, okay, thank you Xiaohui for your hard work." Xiao Dakang pointed to the teapot with a smile and said, "Lin Kun, you have not drunk Aunt Hui's tea yet? Quickly try this tea, the best Tieguanyin."
As he said that, Aunt Hui picked up the teapot, poured six or seven points for the tea cups for the two in an extremely authentic way, and handed them to them respectively.
"Thank you, Aunt Hui."
Li Rui smelled it and it turned out that the heavy fragrance came from his nose. He sipped it and felt the strong bitterness with the tip of his tongue. At the same time, sweetness was produced on his cheeks, and his somewhat distracted spirit couldn't help but feel refreshed.
"It's really good tea."
"You young people like to drink drinks, but they rarely drink tea. In this way, if you like to drink, you will give you a little or two to taste it later."
"Dad, a gentleman does not win over what he loves. How can I get such a rare and top-quality Tieguanyin? I'll drink this pot, and you can drink it slowly by yourself."
"Oh, look at you, why are you polite to me?" Xiao Da Kang said: "Xiao Xiao, let me tell you, Lin Kun's personality is really similar to me. When I was young, I also said the same thing to my father-in-law, what is not to win people's love? The beauty of adulthood. Actually, I really wanted to take it all for him at that time, hahaha!"
The old and the young were chatting while drinking tea. What Li Rui said always made Xiao Dakang laugh. Xiao Xiao seemed to be like a virtuous little wife, sitting beside Li Rui, and for a moment he was a little dazed.
"Actually, I, Xiao Dakang, have three wishes in this life." Xiao Dakang said in a good mood when he saw Li Rui getting along well with his daughter: "First of all, it is to build Wanjiang into a leading company in Shanghai. Half of this goal is now achieved, and I am already very satisfied. The remaining half is left to Xiao Xiao to achieve."
"What about the second one?"
"The second wish was realized not long ago." Xiao Dakang smiled and said, "That is to find a good husband for Xiao Xiao."
"Dad, what is your wish? You can't always think about me alone. Xiao Meng isn't your daughter?"
"Hahaha, Xiao Meng is still young, come one by one."
"Tsk, you just want to worry about it. Let's talk about your third wish."
"This third wish is to hold a grandson." Xiao Dakang looked at the two of them with a pointing eyes and said with a smile: "I, Xiao Dakang, have already completed the first two wishes. Now I am worried about this third wish. You two must hold on to them. I am anxious to hold a grandson."
"Dad, why did you suddenly say this?" In an instant, Xiao Xiao's cheeks were red, and he was shy and coquettish.
Although she has married Li Rui, she is just a nominal couple. Now Xiao Dakang suddenly mentioned having a baby, which makes her feel very nervous.
"Lin Kun, look, Xiao Xiao is still shy." Xiao Dakang saw Xiao Xiao's blushing cheeks and immediately smiled: "You are too old, it's time to have a baby."
"Dad, don't say anything more..." Xiao Xiao was so embarrassed that he was about to collapse and secretly poked Li Rui's waist.
Li Rui received a signal from Xiao Xiao, cleared his throat and pondered: "Dad, Xiao Xiao and I have discussed it. Wanjiang is in an extraordinary period now. We want to wait for a while and it will not be too late to regenerate after a stable period."
"Wait for a while? How long will it take!" Xiao Dakang's face darkened and said, "When your mother and I are too old to walk? Although the company's affairs are important, having children is more important. Besides, this is not a matter of losing sight of one thing and the other, and it can be taken into account. If it really doesn't work, let Lin Kun help you. What can't be solved?"
Li Rui and Xiao Xiao looked at each other, but they didn't expect Xiao Dakang's determination to be so strong.
"Dad, what are you doing? We didn't say that you won't give birth. You will definitely give birth. I'll go back to give birth tonight." Li Rui smiled and brought a cup of tea and said, "Don't be angry, we will definitely listen to your opinions."
"Okay, okay, I won't discuss this with you anymore. I'll give you a year. If I can't see my grandson in a year, or Xiao Xiao's stomach has not moved yet, I'll give you two ways."
"Oh, Dad, what are you doing? You're just a few months old. What should I do if I get angry?" Xiao Xiao became anxious and grabbed Xiao Dakang's arm in panic.
"This is not a discussion with you. If you can't do it, either I, Xiao Dakang, leave this family alone, and you just pretend that you don't have my father, or you leave the company and be a full-time housewife at home."
Li Rui was also shocked. As expected, he had the same father as Xiao Dakang's temper and Xiao Xiao were all carved out in the same shape. A few months ago, Xiao Dakang threatened the couple to register with his unwilling surgery. Otherwise, even if the two were delayed until now, they might not have been married.
But then again, Xiao Xiao is not Xiao Dakang's flesh and blood. Their tempers are so close. Could it be that his Xiao family's inheritance is so awesome?
"Children's father, why are you angry with the children as soon as you come back?" A soft and beautiful female voice came over. Li Rui and Xiao Xiao looked out the door together. It was her mother-in-law Miao Xueyin who came back from outside, followed by two domestic servants to help carry the food.
Li Rui knew that she was her mother-in-law. She never showed any signs in front of Xiao Dakang, and she would not even say anything against Xiao Dakang's wishes. But this does not mean that she is a kind-hearted woman. On the contrary, her thoughts and scheming are definitely unfathomable.
As the hostess of the Xiao family, Miao Xueyin has always played a virtuous and kind image in front of Xiao Dakang. Therefore, Xiao Dakang's people have already returned, so she is late because of buying vegetables.
