Chapter 285 How can I still pamper you!
"But speaking of status, I don't know what Mr. Xing is like outside, but in our family, he really doesn't care much about his status... Maybe he is just an easy-going person."
Meng Zixi almost choked on the water he had just taken: "Mr. Xing? Easy-going? Aunt Lan, are you kidding?"
Thinking of that dignified, handsome, and powerful man, Aunt Lan coughed twice in embarrassment.
"Well, I can't say he's easygoing, but Mr. Xing is indeed different from what people say. People outside say he's hard to get along with. At first, I also thought that a man of his status and position should be out of reach, but he insisted on living with the eldest lady, just like marrying into her family."
Meng Zixi laughed at her: "Aunt Lan, you dare to say that Mr. Xing is marrying into the family? You are quite courageous."
"Why should I be afraid of this? When Mr. Xing first came into our house with his luggage and said he would take care of the young lady himself, I told him that he didn't need to take care of her. It didn't matter to him. If you didn't know, you would think he was the son-in-law of the Jiang family. But he didn't listen. He didn't mind, so I'm not afraid to say it.
Besides, Mr. Xing has done something more 'serious' than marrying into a woman's family, so a term like 'son-in-law' is nothing."
When Meng Zixi heard this, his gossip fire instantly ignited, and he leaned in: "Really? Aunt Lan, please tell me more? You don't know, ever since Mr. Xing got together with Qianxun, I rarely even go to her room, and I dare not watch. You serve Qianxun every day, so you must have seen a lot, hurry up and tell me."
After hearing Meng Zixi's words, even Huang Xiaoxiao, who was distracted, looked over and waited for Aunt Lan's words with a calm smile.
Seeing the two young people looking at her expectantly, Aunt Lan took another sip of tea before speaking softly.
“In fact, I didn’t see him much, but he slept in the studio at night, and came out of the eldest lady’s room in his pajamas the next day.
Oh, by the way, there was also that time when the young lady went with you to take maternity photos. When she came back, she was carried out of the car and carried upstairs by Mr. Xing. Mr. Xing was more dedicated than a nanny like me!"
Meng Zixi raised his eyebrows: "You mean that time? What's the point of carrying her back? Didn't you see Mr. Xing staring at Qianxun and taking pictures the whole time? Brother Zheng was driven away by him at that time, leaving only a bunch of female photographers! If it were possible, I guess he would have to give an order that only female mosquitoes were allowed to pass! This damn possessiveness, I'm not jealous at all! Really!"
Seeing Meng Zixi gritting his teeth, Auntie Lan smiled and continued: "What's this? Didn't you hear what the eldest lady said? The eldest lady almost had two threatened miscarriages before, and it was Mr. Xing who took care of her personally, cooking, washing clothes, and personally serving the eldest lady to take a bath and sleep...
It has become even more outrageous recently. He feeds the young lady and washes her himself. He would rather sleep on the floor than not take care of her and the baby in her belly. I even save the job of bringing her midnight snacks.
In fact, he could have hired a nanny to do these things, but he insisted on taking care of it himself. I guess they are almost as loving as a real couple, Miss Huang, don’t you think so? "
Huang Xiaoxiao raised her drooping eyebrows when she was suddenly called, a little stunned: "Ah? Aunt Lan, why are you asking me all of a sudden?"
Auntie Lan also laughed: "Ah, that's right, aren't your adoptive parents the famous Misha? I heard from Zixi that Misha and her husband are a famous model couple. I thought you had seen what a loving couple looked like, so I asked you."
Huang Xiaoxiao suddenly realized and smiled sweetly: "Is that so... Indeed, my adoptive parents have a very good relationship, similar to Qianxun and Mr. Xing. But Qianxun is so outstanding, and she is pregnant with the blood of the Xing family, she really deserves to be loved by Mr. Xing, this is normal."
"That's right! Don't laugh at me, I just think our eldest daughter is the best and a perfect match for Mr. Xing! Although Mr. Xing's actions are not quite in line with his status, I still hope that he can do more things like this, the better."
Having said this, Aunt Lan glanced at Huang Xiaoxiao who was still looking at her with a smile.
Seeing that Huang Xiaoxiao was smiling but her eyes were dull, Auntie Lan silently curled the corners of her lips, suddenly lowered her voice, and continued: "But Mr. Xing also has his faults. He is too unrestrained."
When Meng Zixi heard this, his eyes lit up instantly: "Ah? There's a car? Tell me quickly! I love to hear it!"
The smile on Huang Xiaoxiao's face froze!
Auntie Lan saw this and continued, "Every time Mr. Xing and Miss stay together for more than half an hour, their necks become unbearable to look at. Last time when Miss and I went back to the countryside, Mr. Xing came back from a business trip and rushed over. The two of them stayed in the car and..."
"Oh! What is it? Tell me more about it!"
Auntie Lan stretched out her legs and gave Meng Zixi a light kick, "You are a young lady, why do you always like to listen to these things? That's enough! Anyway, the young lady either has a neck or a mouth that cannot be looked at.
I was anxious, after all, the young lady was still pregnant. I had shamelessly warned the young lady more than once that she should not let Mr. Xing touch her before or after giving birth, and it would be best to wait until after the baby was born. The young lady agreed, but Mr. Xing still...
Hey! This man is in pain, but he is still willing to live with the young lady and take care of her personally. This should be what you young people call true love, right? "
Meng Zixi: "It counts! How can it not count? There are so many men who cheat on their wives when they are pregnant. Mr. Xing is so busy, but he is still willing to take good care of her, so it definitely counts!"
"Hey! You three...what are you talking about?" Suddenly, Uncle Jiang's voice rang out. Everyone turned around and saw Uncle Jiang wearing an apron, looking at them with a smile.
Meng Zixi said, "Oh, we were just talking about how good Mr. Xing was to my boss. Uncle Jiang? Is it time to eat?"
Uncle Jiang stretched out his gloved hands and said, "Not yet. I'll probably have to wait another hour. I made a few state banquet dishes tonight, which took a little while. I've run out of dark and light soy sauces. I need one of you to help me open a new bottle."
Aunt Lan put down her teacup: "I'll do it."
Meng Zixi smiled: "Aunt Lan is still good to Uncle Jiang. Uncle Jiang, you are blessed."
Uncle Jiang glanced at Meng Zixi with satisfaction, then looked at Huang Xiaoxiao who was keeping her head down and not saying anything.
He thought for a moment, and suddenly added, "What's my fault? Director An is the most blessed person in the family. When she was only three months pregnant, Mr. Xing arranged for Elder Wen to help deliver the baby. The food she eats every day is freshly airlifted in. He also personally selected the high-end fashion of the season and sent it here. Whether Director An wears it or not, everything is ready. I dare not imagine how Mr. Xing will spoil Director An when she has a baby in the future!"
When Aunt Lan heard that Lao Jiang had also joined the "battle", she immediately gave him an appreciative look.
But the next second, Auntie Lan reacted and asked with her hands on her hips: "Lao Jiang, what do you mean? You mean, I opened the soy sauce bottle for you, but you don't like it!"
Uncle Jiang's face changed: "No, no! That's definitely not what I meant!"
"That's what you meant. I heard it with my own ears!"
"I really didn't...Yulan, listen to me..."
"I don't want to hear it. Anyway, I'll help you open these two bottles of soy sauce and then I'll leave..."
"Stop! Oh no, I accidentally touched the kitchen knife and my hand is bleeding."
"Lao Jiang! How are you......"
......
Seeing Uncle Jiang praising someone until she "turned over", Meng Zixi laughed out loud outside the living room. But as she listened, she couldn't help but curse under her breath because it turned into dog food.
"Is this life even for me? I, a single dog, deserve to be abused! Fortunately, Xiaoxiao is with me... otherwise I would definitely die of jealousy. Even if I were to dig myself out after being dead for three years, my eyes would still be red!"
After saying that, Meng Zixi turned around and looked at Huang Xiaoxiao who was in a daze.
Huang Xiaoxiao didn't react at all.
"Xiaoxiao, what's wrong with you?" Meng Zixi leaned over and asked her with concern, waving his hand in front of her eyes.
Huang Xiaoxiao finally came back to her senses. She forced a smile and said, "Ah? I'm fine. What did you ask me just now?"
"Ah, I wanted to ask you, what's wrong with you? I saw that you were a little distracted. Are you feeling unwell? Or are you hungry?" Meng Zixi put away his smile and asked her with concern.
Facing Meng Zixi's lively eyes, Huang Xiaoxiao's smile faded: "I'm not hungry, I just suddenly feel pain in my wound. Zixi, why don't you watch TV here first? I want to go upstairs and take a rest first."
After saying that, Huang Xiaoxiao was about to leave.
Meng Zixi put down his teacup and quickly stood up: "Ah? Your wound hurts, you just had an anti-inflammatory injection this afternoon? Could it be that the doctor's medicine didn't work? Oh, never mind, I'll help you go upstairs to rest."
"No need. I just feel a little pain in the wound. I just need to talk less, reduce the vibration of my chest, and get some more sleep, and maybe it will be fine." After saying that, Huang Xiaoxiao pushed Meng Zixi's hand away and walked towards the stairs.
Meng Zixi followed her with a smile and insisted on holding her hand.
"Xiaoxiao, don't refuse! I heard from Chihiro that Mr. Xing didn't treat Chihiro very well, and you have always been the one protecting her. Now you are injured because of saving Chihiro, how can I ignore you? You should treat your good friends like you treat Chihiro! Come on, let me help you up the stairs! Be careful with your steps."
People were forcibly supporting her, and Huang Xiaoxiao couldn't refuse, so she had to force a smile: "Thank you Zixi."
"Why are you being polite? Chihiro's friend is also my friend."
So, the two of them went upstairs while chatting, until they reached Jiang Qianxun's door on the second floor, Meng Zixi's lively peach blossom eyes turned, and he suddenly grabbed Huang Xiaoxiao who was about to open the door, pointed at the door opposite with his chin, and whispered.
"Xiaoxiao, look, Chihiro hasn't come out yet, and the door is closed. I really want to put my ear over to listen to what they are doing. Are they kissing? Haha..."
Huang Xiaoxiao held the door handle with one hand and said nothing.
Only Meng Zixi continued: "But, I'm a virgin, so I'd better forget it. What if they're not kissing, but doing something else, like cough cough...right? It would be so embarrassing if I heard it. Forget it, let's go into the house!"
After saying that, seeing that Huang Xiaoxiao was reluctant to open the door, Meng Zixi considerately helped open the door, sent the silent Huang Xiaoxiao in, helped her put on the quilt, and then went downstairs humming a little tune.
In the studio, there was deathly silence. Huang Xiaoxiao lay on the bed, listening to the quiet sounds around her, her eyes unable to close.
At this time, in the small restaurant on the first floor.
Aunt Lan, who had been throwing a tantrum just now, has long since calmed down and is now busy preparing tonight's dishes under Uncle Jiang's instructions.
Seeing his beloved being so considerate, Uncle Jiang, who accidentally cut his hand, quietly extended the cooking time. He gave soft instructions while watching the woman closely. When cutting some raw materials that required strength, he would move closer to her and hold her hand to help.
It was not until the old clock in the living room struck seven that Aunt Lan finally prepared the last bit of seasoning.
"It's finally done. Lao Jiang, please help set the table. I'll go upstairs and call Miss and Mr. Xing."
After saying that, Aunt Lan went upstairs to call someone.
When she reached the master bedroom on the second floor, Auntie Lan glanced at the door opposite, lowered her head and thought for a moment, then knocked on the door of the master bedroom: "Miss, Mr. Xing, is it time for dinner?"
There was no response from inside the door.
Auntie Lan was not in a hurry and knocked again: "Miss, are you asleep? It's time to eat, Miss..."
Before he could finish his words, the next moment, the door opened, and his eldest daughter and Mr. Xing were both standing at the door.
Aunt Lan glanced at the two of them and saw that Jiang Qianxun's face was red, but Mr. Xing looked normal. Although he was still wearing the familiar white shirt and black trousers, his cold and noble aura seemed to have weakened a little, giving the illusion that he was a ferocious beast that everyone feared, but was now defenseless after being sated.
