Rebirth: Growing Up Together

The kitten made the girl temporarily forget her previous sorrow.

Rice cakes are also super exciting.

It fluttered and jumped back and forth on the two of them for several circles.

Sniff.

Sniff.

It's an ugly taste!

Meow.

Look.

These two two-legged beasts will soon have kittens...

Chapter 339 Investigation Begins

The lunch was exceptionally sumptuous.

Insect black chicken and water fish soup, boiled shrimp, vermicelli shrimp with garlic sauce, celery, lily, cashews, coprinus comatus and shredded pork...

However, the six people at the table all had somewhat awkward expressions on their faces.

Nian Gao lay beside Lin Wanzhou's legs and kept nudging her. In its opinion, if it followed this female biped, it would definitely eat so much that it would fall on its back today.

However, the girl was too embarrassed to pick up her chopsticks, and she didn't even dare to raise her head, for fear of bumping into the adults.

Who can be blamed for this?

It was her request to ride in Xu Cheng's car, it was she who wanted to buy the ice cream, it was she who slapped the car keys away, and even the oath Xu Cheng made was her request to be stated clearly word for word.

It can be said that in every link, it was oneself who harmed oneself so miserably.

"I'm eating, but I can't even move my chopsticks, hahaha."

He Ying forced a smile and pushed Xu Jianghe's arm, "Old Xu, why don't you propose one first?"

In fact, He Ying was not just forcing a smile.

He Ying was naturally very happy about the fact that her son had taken Director Gao's daughter away with him.

Happy from the bottom of my heart.

However, in order not to irritate Gao Manman, she felt it would be better for her to look like she was forcing a smile.

After all...even though it has arched, it hasn't completely arched over, right?

Since the person is still in the other person's house, let's celebrate after we trick him into doing something.

Ok.

Refuse to open champagne at halftime.

This is the life experience that He Ying has accumulated from his youth to middle age.

Xu Jianghe cooperated and raised the juice.

"Then let me mention one first."

Everyone raised their juice as well.

Xu Jianghe cleared his throat.

"Let me say a few words first. Congratulations to our two children for achieving such good results. Dad is very proud of you..."

Xu Jianghe was talking about himself with great joy, so He Ying secretly stepped on him under the table.

Xu Jianghe quickly realized that he had spoken too early.

He glanced at Gao Manman and Lin Qingyuan's faces, which both looked bad, and coughed twice.

"I mean, Zhou Zhou, Uncle Xu is proud of you too."

"You two will be going to college soon, so dad... and uncle, wish you academic success and hope you can become the pillars of the country soon!"

He Ying interrupted him with a smile.

"I think you have too many meetings. Do you need them as a pillar of society? In my opinion, you should just live a more comfortable life."

"A woman's perspective."

"Xu, Jiang, He?"

"OK OK."

Seeing that He Ying on the other side of the table was about to lose her temper, Gao Manman quickly interrupted her.

"Then I wish the two children a bright future."

"Director Gao is still good at talking."

The six cups clinked together, and everyone began to use their chopsticks one after another.

The atmosphere gradually became harmonious, until Xu Cheng considerately stretched out his chopsticks to pick up a chicken leg and habitually stuffed it on top of Lin Wan's porridge and rice.

The four adults' eyes were all focused on him for a moment.

Lin Wanzhou was so embarrassed that she buried her face in the rice and just focused on eating.

However, the girl's mind was quietly relaxed. While the adults were chatting and not paying attention, she boldly picked up a shrimp and secretly put it into Xu Cheng's bowl.

The meal was finished quickly.

Lin's father said enthusiastically that he would prepare a graduation banquet for Lin Wanzhou in the near future, and hoped that Xu Cheng's family would also come.

Naturally, I agreed very readily.

Xu Cheng’s kitchen.

While washing dishes, He Ying and Xu Jianghe exchanged glances with each other.

After a while, Xu Jianghe wiped his wet hands and came out of the kitchen, looking at his son who was sitting on the sofa watching TV.

"Tell me about it."

"what?"

Xu Cheng looked around and finally pointed at himself.

"Dad, are you talking to me?"

"If I don't talk to you, how about I talk to the cat?"

"Meow."

"Stop pretending to be stupid. Your mother and I are neither blind nor deaf. Tell me the truth. What's going on with you two now?"

"Uh……"

Seeing that he couldn't fool the crowd, Xu Cheng had no choice but to tell the truth.

After all, he was just flirting with his childhood sweetheart, and he didn't commit any crime punishable by beheading.

Besides, in an era when people are less and less fond of getting married, he is able to actively pursue love, and as parents, we should support him in this regard.

Just dip your finger in the juice, draw a curve on the coffee table, and then point to a point on the curve.

"If it's a line like this, we should be here."

Xu Jianghe glanced at him for a while, the expression on his face changed again and again, he seemed to want to say something but stopped, and finally nodded and said something.

"Don't bully others."

went away.

Xu Cheng was left a little confused.

This is the function curve he wrote for Lin Wanzhou. He casually showed it to his father, thinking that he would have to explain it to him, but he understood it at once?

"Dad, do you understand?"

Xu Jianghe turned his head in surprise.

"What's so hard to understand? It's just an intimacy curve."

Xu Jianghe thought about it and felt something was wrong. "How do you know this? Did you hear it from your mother?"

Xu Cheng shook his head and answered the question irrelevantly.

"...Dad, I am sure that I am your biological child."

"???"

the other side.

In Lin Wanzhou’s SUV.

Gao Manman sat in the driver's seat, and from time to time she looked up at the rearview mirror, from which she could see her daughter sitting in the back seat playing with her mobile phone.

Occasionally her eyes would meet her husband's.

The two looked at each other and noticed something unusual in each other's eyes.

It's like they all know something, and this thing is both similar and different.

After returning home, Lin Wanzhou stayed in his bedroom for the entire afternoon.

She rarely went out, fearing that she would be caught and questioned by her parents.

There is always a loophole, and finally when she sneaked out to drink water at night, she was caught by her mother.

Just when the girl was about to retreat back to her bedroom.

"porridge."

Gao Manman shouted.

When Lin Wanzhou was called, he turned around nervously.

"What's wrong, Mom?"

The girl's hands were scratching at the hem of her clothes and shorts, not knowing where to put them, and her palms were wet with sweat.

Gao Manman walked up to her daughter.

Seeing that her eyes were gentle and it didn't seem like she was going to scold him, Lin Wanzhou felt relieved.

Gao Manman raised her hand and touched the girl's head.

"You're growing so fast. When did you become taller than your mom? I didn't even notice it."

The girl pouted slightly and spoke softly in a coquettish tone.

"I've been taller than you for a long time."

"It's been so many years. Mom has grown old, and you've grown into a big girl."

Lin Wanzhou grabbed Gao Manman's arm.

"How can she be old? My mother is still a great beauty."

Gao Manman smiled gently and helped her tidy up her hair.

"Your father and I are both very career-oriented, and neither of us can take care of the family. You've been alone too much these years, and it's your parents who have wronged you."

"..."

Lin Wanzhou didn't speak for a long time.

Her butterfly-like eyelashes fluttered a few times. For some reason, I felt my eyes were hot and my nose was sore.

"No...grievance..."

"You're so sad even though you haven't felt wronged. Are you blaming your mother?"

"That's not strange."

As she spoke, Lin Wanzhou's tears began to fall down her cheeks.

Gao Manman patiently helped her wipe it off with toilet paper.

"You're such a grown-up girl, and you're still crying. When you were a kid and didn't like going to kindergarten, you cried to me at home and I had to wipe your nose for you. That's how I wiped it."
