Sky-high pillow: the chief domineering substitute bride

Chapter 99
In order to welcome Nangong Junyan's first visit, Xia Zhaoyang also went upstairs and changed into a newly bought silver-gray suit, paired with a new tie with red and blue stripes, looking beaming.

Seeing her father's appearance as a groom's official, Xia Yuan pursed her lips and smiled, thinking of her mother who was about to be released from prison, her eyes felt sad.

Xia Yuan was sure that her father would not want to know any news about her mother now, otherwise, why didn't he take any action when he could help her mother to be released on parole early?

Although she and her mother were divorced, after all, they still had her as a bond of flesh and blood. How could her father ignore her mother so much? When she first learned from Nangong Toshiyan that her father had not done anything to help her mother, Xia Yuan was hit hard.

Compared with her father's "cruel heart", Xia Yuan always cared about protecting him. Perhaps, the experience of being murdered by Qin Rui's mother and son in her previous life was too miserable.Xia Yuan subconsciously wants to protect her parents.

As the news spread that Nangong Junyan was coming to the house for dinner, the whole family was mobilized. Even though Qin Rui felt unhappy, she changed into a more dignified dress, showing the air of a middle-aged lady .

And Xia Qian, who just came home from school, didn't know what kind of idea she had. She even changed into a short skirt with a small belly button. It was not until she was reprimanded by Xia Zhaoyang that she quickly changed into another set of clothes. It is still a small suspender outfit that reveals a large snow-skinned back.

"It's been a few months, are you cold?"

Seeing that her father was speechless, Xia Yuan had no choice but to speak.

Xia Qian is cold even if she is not wearing clothes, but Xia Yuan is afraid of being laughed at by Nangong Junyan because her family has no tutor.

Seeing that her mother was silent, Xia Qian knew that her mother was on her side, so she snorted coldly, pretending she didn't hear what Xia Yuan said.

Even the servants in the family knew that the eldest lady's fiancé was going to visit. Everyone heard that this fiancé was young and wealthy, and they were full of mystery and curiosity. For a while, the table was wiped, the floor was wiped, and the house was cleaned up in a blink of an eye. It seems to be cleaner than the New Year.

A large bouquet of pink roses picked from the garden greenhouse was placed in the center of the living room, and Xia Zhaoyang praised it, making Qin Rui very proud.

Seeing that the Xia family had done enough to entertain guests, Nangong Toshihiko did not arrive for a while. Everyone was sitting or watching TV, but they were all looking forward to it in their hearts and making up their own minds.

But at this moment, Xia Yuan's cell phone rang, and she saw that it was Nangong Toshihiko calling. Could it be that she lost her way?Impossible, he can feel it at night, how could he get lost?

"I'm sorry, I'm in a hurry and I can't go to your house tonight. I'll visit you another day and say sorry to my uncle and aunt."

As soon as the words fell, before Xia Yuan could say anything, Nangong Toshihiko hung up the phone, as if there was really something urgent and unexpected that he needed to deal with.

"Dad, Mom, he's not coming, he's busy."

As soon as Xia Yuan said this, the mentality of everyone in the living room changed significantly.

Qin Rui reckoned that Nangong Junyan didn't pay much attention to Xia Yuan, and the engagement was very strange at that time. Seeing the performance tonight, it was really solid. Going back and asking Lao Xia, what happened on the night of the engagement, he would agree to his heart Baby is engaged to Toshihiko Nangong.

A mocking smile appeared on the corner of Xia Qian's mouth, and she said:
"Yo, brother-in-law is also true. The first time I came to visit, we released everyone's pigeons. It's hard for my parents to look forward to it so eagerly. It seems that brother-in-law doesn't value our family as much as he imagined!"

Xia Qian's words were like pouring cold water into hot oil, which made Xia Zhaoyang furious:
"Qianqian, look at what you said, your brother-in-law's family has a big business, and it's normal for him to be busy with work, so why are you cynical here?"

Xia Zhaoyang has always been majestic, and Xia Qian is most afraid of him among the few people. Seeing that he got angry, she had to stick out her tongue and "Gedeng Gedeng" went upstairs to play computer games.

Xia Zhaoyang's eagerness to receive Nangong Junyan was also cooled by his phone call.The marriage between Nangong Toshihiko and his daughter was indescribably strange and strange, but under the circumstances of that day, it seemed to be the best choice.

Afterwards, Xia Zhaoyang has been paying close attention to Xia Yuan's movements. Seeing that she is normal, he puts his heart down a little bit. After many investigations, he finds out that Nangong Junyan is really Jiangnan Wushuang's golden bachelor. full of anticipation.

Unexpectedly, Nangong Junyan missed the appointment the first time he came to the door, and Xia Zhaoyang was really disappointed.

However, of course he couldn't show it like his wife and youngest daughter, so he remained calm on the surface, for fear that Xia Yuan would be sad.

Seeing Xia Yuan's calm face, Xia Zhaoyang coughed dryly and said:

"In half an hour, we're ready to eat."

Xia Zhaoyang gave an order, and everyone scattered like birds and beasts.

Xia's house is a huge Gothic building, divided into left and right wings. On the left is the living space of the Xia couple, and on the right is the living space of the three children. However, Xia Yuan's room is not the same as that of Xia Qian and Xie Shaojun. On the first floor, men and women are different because of their blood relationship, so there are some taboos.

Seeing Xia Qian leave, Xia Yuan smiled faintly. She felt everyone's disappointment and didn't feel particularly embarrassed. She returned to her room on the third floor.

After not coming back for several days, Xia Yuan's room was still tightly drawn with curtains, and if the lights were not turned on, it would be like a dark cave all day long.

In this terrible room, Xia Yuan has many bad memories from her previous life. To be honest, she really doesn't like living here.

The plant in the room that Xia Yuan had tampered with had already been replaced. This time it was a giant plant with a bulging tree. Without thinking about it, Xia Yuan turned back to the bathroom, boiled a pot of water, and poured water on the roots of the tree. go.

Seeing that there was still enough time, Xia Yuan strolled to Qin Rui's exclusive territory in the back garden, her garden greenhouse.

At this time, the autumn wind is just starting, and there are still remnants of the tyranny of autumn tigers in the autumn in the south, so the heating in the garden greenhouse is not turned on. Xia Yuan turns on the lights and walks into the garden greenhouse, where there are hundreds of flowers carefully planted by Qin Rui. and green plants.

Xia Yuan thought for a while, picked up her mobile phone, and took pictures of plants she didn't know. Although she didn't know these plants, botanists must know them.

She doesn't know botanists, but there are many professionals who like to show off on the Internet. Xia Yuan plans to find a professional forum and post these unknown flowers so that everyone can identify them.

Xia Yuan was taking photos here, but she didn't notice that the sky was getting darker. There was a faint rumble of thunder in the sky, and lightning flashed past from time to time. A strong wind with water vapor swept in. A thunderstorm was about to come It's about to come.
