Chapter 489 Small-minded

Chapter 489 Small-minded

Halfway through the drive, Xu Mingyuan remembered that there were two copies of the contract, and he had not yet taken his copy.

Su Muqing sent two text messages. The first one explained: I had a high fever of 40 degrees yesterday and felt a little dizzy.

Second: I was joking, I won’t say it again, and don’t block my phone number.

There is no standard answer as to whether it is a joke or not. It can be and it can not be. It is similar to quantum mechanics. It depends on how you observe it.

Being able to establish contact with Xu Mingyuan must be in line with Su Muqing's current interests.

As a woman, she is more rational than emotional. The fact that she made such a request must have been the result of careful consideration.

But Su Muqing was overthinking. If Xu Mingyuan was really a young boy who was just starting out, he would not be able to withstand her tricks.

It’s a pity that Xu Mingyuan is not one of them.

Yang Zhi had a sharp nose and could easily smell the fragrance on Xu Mingyuan.

But Yang Zhi didn't ask in a hurry. He waited until he got home in the evening before asking the reason indirectly.

"Brother, why do your clothes smell good?"

Yang Zhi took Xu Mingyuan's coat and sniffed the smell on it.

"Is it true? Is it still available now?" Xu Mingyuan asked in surprise.

"No more, there's more at noon..."

Yang Zhi looked away guiltily, not daring to look at Xu Mingyuan.

"Oh, I went to Su Muqing's house this morning."

Xu Mingyuan smiled and didn't take Xiao Yangzhi's little tricks seriously.

"You two... hugged each other?" Yang Zhi asked in a low voice.

"No, the apartment she lived in was too small, and the perfume on her clothes stained the sofa. I sat there for a while and the smell stained me."

Xu Mingyuan grabbed Xiao Yangzhi's legs and carried her to the room in a princess-like manner.

When Taotao was not at home, the two of them seldom stayed in the living room. Not long after dinner, they were too lazy to go upstairs to exercise, and usually went back to their room to stay for a while.

When she was about to be thrown onto the bed, Yang Zhi hooked her arms around Xu Mingyuan's neck tightly, and they fell onto the bed and rolled around twice.

Yang Zhi likes to play this kind of childish game very much, and every time Xu Mingyuan will follow her own wishes and play childish games with her.

At night, Xu Mingyuan usually did not work. In order to let him spend more time in the room, Yang Zhi considerately found her laptop and put it on the stand. Then she lay down beside him and pressed her beautiful long legs on him.

"Brother, what are you doing at her house?"

"When signing the contract, she said she had a severe fever and couldn't leave the house, so she wanted me to go."

"Oh."

Yang Zhi was no longer curious and continued to browse the web with him.

"Then she said she wanted to have a baby with me."

"what?"

Hearing this, Yang Zhi, who had just been lying on Xu Mingyuan's chest, immediately raised his head.

"scared?"

"Then...brother, have you agreed?" Yang Zhi asked in a low voice.

"Am I sick? Of course not."

"You want a child even though you have a fever. You have no shame..."

"Haha, you don't understand? This is called being able to advance or retreat. It's not necessary today." Xu Mingyuan said with a smile.

"Brother, Sister Taotao is quite pitiful."

"You little girl, do you have empathy? Are you still using Xiao Taotao as a shield?" Xu Mingyuan pinched her face and said.

"..."

Yang Zhi pursed her lips and didn't dare to say anything.

"Ah, how can I put it? The person I feel most sorry for in this life is indeed Xiao Taotao. She is a silly and naive girl, and she doesn't have any thoughts. I also deceived her again and again, which is really inhumane."

Xu Mingyuan is very self-aware and understands that he cannot give Tao Shuxin a perfect life.

"You've already done it, and you're still saying these things..." Yang Zhi was a little speechless, and continued: "Brother, you don't owe anyone anything in this life, just be true to yourself."

"Hiss, you little brat, are you forcing me to make mistakes?"

"No, you still say sorry to me, but I don't feel that way." Yang Zhi said.

"Bullshit."

"Brother, if you think this is nonsense, then I also want one..."

"What do you want?"

"We want a child." Yang Zhi said with blinking eyes.

"Don't come on, you're just a little older."

"I was born when my mother was my age."

"Times have changed. It's the 21st century now, and people have long advocated for late marriage and late childbearing." "Advocacy doesn't mean it's necessary..."

"You lazy girl just want to stay at home and not go out. Don't I know you? Get up, go upstairs and run for a while."

"I don't want to go, just stay a little longer..."

Yang Zhi hugged him tightly and rubbed him gently.

"No, you have to find excuses every day. You deserve to be punished."

"Then you might as well give me a beating... Bro, be careful, don't step on the notebook."

Suddenly, I felt my body lighten and Yang Zhi was picked up. The notebook on my legs fell onto the bed. I was afraid that the screen would be stepped on and broken, so I quickly called out to remind them.

A laptop is not important, but it contains photos that the two of them have taken over the years. If it breaks, it will have to be repaired, which is very troublesome.

In the end, Yang Zhi was let down. After all, it must be very uncomfortable to exercise in tight thermal underwear, so he had to change into light clothes first.

While changing clothes, Yang Zhi looked back at Xu Mingyuan.

Seeing that he didn't even look at her, Yang Zhi sighed softly. It seemed that she was going to suffer tonight...

……

No one went back to Nanxi this weekend. Tao Shuxin wanted to go shopping, so Xu Mingyuan accompanied her.

"How about going to the amusement park?"

Xu Mingyuan really didn't want to go shopping, and had no intention of doing so, but he had to accompany her.

"Well... no, I've been there many times."

Tao Shuxin has been to the amusement park countless times since she was a child. She and Xu Mingyuan have also been there a few times. It was crowded on weekends and it was not comfortable to play there.

"Sea World?"

"Wow, are you a kindergarten kid? You're so old and still going to the oceanarium." Tao Shuxin complained.

"Do we have to go shopping?"

"The weather is getting warmer, so I should buy two new clothes. Oh, don't bother me while I'm driving, I still need to buy a birthday present for Xiao Zhizhi."

Tao Shuxin looked at the navigation, turned a corner and headed towards the mall.

The shopping malls in Jiangcheng are much bigger than those in Nanxi. You can’t finish shopping here in a whole day. There are so many things to buy.

"Do you remember when Xiao Yangzhi's birthday is?" Xu Mingyuan asked.

"Don't you remember?"

"It looks like next week."

"Hey! You really don't know?"

"I do not know."

"Next Friday is a holiday. Are you guys planning on going somewhere?"

"If it's next Friday, then let's go back to Nanxi and have a meal at home."

"Eh, it's just so-so." Tao Shuxin said with disdain.

"So this is how we live. Little Yangzhi doesn't like to play around, so a simple life is fine." Xu Mingyuan said.

"So will you still buy gold bars this year?"

"No need. She doesn't like to save money anymore. Just buy her a small doll."

"Whatever? You're too perfunctory. Oh, Xiao Zhizhi is really something. When I had no money two years ago, she was thinking about asking for gold bars. Now that I have money in my pocket, she doesn't save money anymore. It's so troublesome." Tao Shuxin complained.

"Really? I told you a long time ago that this little girl is troublesome. She's not as well-behaved as you think."

"Tsk, you'd better think she's troublesome..."

Tao Shuxin curled her lips and didn't believe Xu Mingyuan's words at all.

It is obvious that little Yangzhi is well-behaved. Even if she is difficult and troublesome, she listens to Xu Mingyuan so much, so how could she be a trouble to him?
After walking around the mall for a long time, Tao Shuxin suddenly remembered something.

"By the way, Sister Qingqing said that it's Xiaozhizhi's birthday and she wants to come too."

"Let her stay where she wants."

"Isn't it just that I asked you to carry some things? Are you so reluctant? We can just have something to eat at noon and then go back."

Seeing that Xu Mingyuan was in a bad mood, Tao Shuxin pouted and wanted to take back her pocket.

"Hey, I'm not tired of shopping. Xiao Yangzhi doesn't like Su Muqing. She is a very scheming woman. You should stay away from her in the future."

"why?"

"Where did you get so many and why? You should know the answer."

"Humph."

Tao Shuxin rolled his eyes, not knowing how Su Muqing had offended him.

Tao Shuxin has known Xu Mingyuan for such a long time. She knows him like a mirror and knows that he is a little narrow-minded...
