Ten Years Against the Current of Rebirth

Chapter 339 Return of mother-in-law

Chapter 339 Mother-in-law returns

It was about half past six when the four of us finished dinner.

After watching the horror movie, the time had just reached early eight o'clock.

The level of shock in the second half of the film was much higher than that in the early stages, and Yan Chijuan didn't even know when he pinched Xu Xing's wrist.

Moreover, the sitting posture was unknowingly sitting with Xu Xing, as if being close to him could alleviate a lot of fear.

But when the movie ended, Yan Chijue reacted, and immediately retracted his hand and silently moved it in the direction of Yao Yuanyuan.

"Jianju, do you want to go to the bathroom?" After Yao Yuanyuan left Li Zhibin's arms, she turned around and asked quietly.

"Um."

"Then let's go together."

After watching the horror movie, Yao Yuanyuan did not dare to go to the toilet alone for the time being.

Or should I say, I don’t dare to go anywhere in the house alone.

It's okay for them to be young, but it's embarrassing for them to leave the birthday girl's mother aside and continue playing mahjong at someone else's house.

"Just take it step by step. When you make money, you use it to spend it." Xu Xing played a card and said, "As long as the money can be spent where it should go, be tighter on this one."

"The charity department mentioned before is still operating as a subordinate department of the financial department for the time being." Yao Yuanyuan glanced at Yan Chijie and saw that she had no reaction, so she continued, "To reach the level you mentioned, this department needs more There’s a lot of manpower.”

The five of them moved to the living room, and Yao Yuanyuan came out to find two playing cards.

"You are really a coward."

Pei Qinglan knew that her daughter was in a relationship before, and Yao Yuanyuan had graduated from college and would not hide such a thing.

Pei Qinglan stood up and said, "It's very late. Let's stay here for the night today. We will spend the night with Juju and Yuanyuan. You two boys can sleep in the guest room. Is that okay?"

"Thank you, Aunt Pei." Li Zhibin said quickly.

"Don't ask us, what's going on with you two now?" Yao Yuanyuan asked, "Your parents knew about your relationship before, so what do you say now?"

After solving my personal physical problems, I was not in a hurry to leave.

"It's okay." Yao Yuanyuan shook her head, "It's good if you don't make a fool of yourself."

Although the people in the room knew that horror movies were fake, they still subconsciously accelerated their heartbeats.

Li Zhibin's heart skipped a beat, and his hand froze when touching the cards.

I just don’t know what Yao Yuanyuan was like in her previous life. Isn’t it possible that she was a solo soloist like Yan Chijuan who never had a partner?

Looking at Pei Qinglan's character, the daughter she raised might actually be like this.

"There are also pink notes." Pei Qinglan added.

The key lies in whether the personality, emotions, etc. are compatible.

After the two girls left, Xu Xing sat on the sofa and rubbed his right wrist, feeling that there were marks on it.

Xu Xing looked at it, then simply stood up, patted his butt, and said, "I'm tired from playing mahjong. Let's go sit in the living room. Do you have any playing cards to play with?"

The pressure does not come entirely from Li Zhibin, but because he is worried that Li Zhibin's parents will have objections to the age of their son's girlfriend.

"Then just wait." Xu Xing threw out a big king in a hurry and crushed Yan Chi's jealous little king to death. "It should be at the end of the month. You should have received the news a long time ago. right."

"No...I'm not scary..." Li Zhibin quickly explained, "I thought I heard the door opening outside just now."

"I think it's pretty good." Yao Yuanyuan said, "The only charity plan currently being implemented is to help poor students go to school. After all, we have little experience in this area, so we still have to take our time."

"That would be disturbing."

Everything is completely different from the original trajectory.

Although he is not too old, given the age difference, Yao Yuanyuan is probably more anxious than Li Zhibin.

Yan Chijiu pursed her lips and said nothing, while Xu Xing was also helpless.

"That's what I like about you." Yao Yuanyuan narrowed her eyes and smiled, "There's no need to change it."

"No..." Li Zhibin put his index finger on his mouth, shushed, and asked quietly, "Didn't you hear anything?"

"The next round of financing for Douyu Live will start by the end of the year, right?" Pei Qinglan said, "I'm already ready."

But Li Zhibin is only a sophomore now, and by the time he graduates, Yao Yuanyuan will be rushing to study in 2829.

He's not really afraid of horror movies. At most, he'll be frightened while watching them, but not to the point where he still has lingering fears after watching them.

There are scary scenes and plots in almost every place in the film, including bedrooms, toilets, kitchens, balconies, and living rooms.

After a round of fighting, the winning or losing amount is only a few tens of yuan. It is purely for leisure.

Although he had met Pei Qinglan before, this was the first time he met Pei Qinglan after confirming their relationship with Yao Yuanyuan.

"What are you talking about?" Yao Yuanyuan touched the goose bumps on her arms, then subconsciously turned her head and looked around to make sure nothing strange came out, "I've finished watching the horror movie, so don't scare people casually, okay?"

At this moment, the mahjong machine finished shuffling the cards. After the noise of the machine stopped, the four people fell into silence.

However, considering the current net worth of Yao Yuanyuan and Li Zhibin, their fundamental choices should not be affected by their parents.

"Uh..." Li Zhibin choked for a moment and turned to look at Xu Xing, wondering what the best answer would be.

"What's wrong?"

"Abin's parents are pretty good." Xu Xing vaguely remembered how his uncle and aunt ran all the way to Kyoto after Li Zhibin's accident in his previous life, looking haggard.

"Okay, okay." Xu Xing stood up and patted his butt, "Let's go to the kitchen."

As soon as these words came out, there was immediate silence.

Besides, we are all acquaintances, so it would be nice to get together and chat.

He doesn't even know how to tell his parents yet.

"Ahem." Li Zhibin was a little embarrassed and glanced in the direction of the kitchen, always feeling that something dirty would come out of there.

In fact, Yao Yuanyuan is only twenty-four years old this year. After her twenty-fifth birthday, she is still far from being considered old.

Pei Qinglan had seen his serious side at work before.

Pei Qinglan left the stage first.

Yao Yuanyuan and Yan Chijuan were frightened by his mysterious appearance, and their expressions suddenly became tense.

"I won't say much more about this." Xu Xing took Yan Chi's jealous offer and said, "Now that you two have confirmed your relationship, when will you meet your parents?"

There is also a mahjong table in the study room of Yao Yuanyuan's home. When she has nothing to do, she invites three people in to play mahjong.

"I originally wanted to give you a surprise." Pei Qinglan raised a gift bag in her hand, "I thought you might still be playing outside at this time, so I came back early to prepare a gift for you."

"If you want to do it, do it yourself. I don't worry about giving charity money to others." Xu Xing shook his head, "Don't be able to find out if you get pocketed later."

"As I said, I am optimistic about the stars."

Now that the tragedy of the previous life has been avoided, and A Bin has been able to embrace Bai Fumei, it is gratifying and congratulatory.

"She said she won't be back until the day after tomorrow." Yao Yuanyuan said after being silent for half a second, "The itinerary is usually scheduled in advance, and it is impossible to change it casually midway."

It's just that in this life, Yao Yuanyuan did not work with her mother after graduation. Instead, she was abducted by Xu Xing and went to Qunxing.

The driver of the truck that caused the accident was held accountable, but the person who indirectly caused the disaster was allowed to walk free.

Sure enough, everyone heard the sound of footsteps approaching slowly.

Li Zhibin twitched the corner of his mouth, not knowing what expression to make. His face was a little stiff. He did not expect to meet Pei Qinglan under such circumstances.

"You are so old, yet you are still planning surprises." Yao Yuanyuan looked helpless, stood up and walked over. She was quite happy to receive the gift from her mother and hugged Pei Qinglan.

"Are you too quick?" Yao Yuanyuan suddenly turned to look at him.

Li Zhibin quickly stood up and was too embarrassed to continue sitting there.

"You don't have much confidence in me..."

"Aunt Pei has a really big appetite."

Li Zhibin looked very nervous. He was able to interrupt conversations before, but since Pei Qinglan came, he suddenly became a boring gourd and couldn't say anything for a long time.

"You fart!" Li Zhibin couldn't admit it and said immediately, "I'm just a little scared, it's not as exaggerated as you think, okay?"

Li Zhibin: "Ah this..."

If this guy had to face Pei Qinglan for the first time, Yao Yuanyuan would really worry that this guy would make a fool of himself.

The next second, the study door was pushed open.

"Why don't you go by yourself? I'm not thirsty."

At this moment, footsteps stopped at the door of the study.

Li Zhibin just wanted to find a new topic to liven up the atmosphere.

Everyone pushed the mahjong into the shuffler and prepared for the next game.

"Oh." Xu Xing smiled and winked at Li Zhibin, "It seems that you and your mother-in-law have something in common."

Mahjong can only be played by four people, but poker does not matter the number of people.

Several people were not short of money, but under Yan Chijiu's suggestion, they still only played the game for one yuan.

"Don't use polite words." Pei Qinglan said with a smile, "I'm betting on the potential and development of the stars, and I'm betting on your ability as the founder."

"I'm going to take a bath. You young people are in good spirits. Take your time and play."

It's like the sound of a key being inserted into a keyhole and turning...

Li Zhibin immediately stood up and saw Xu Xing following him. He immediately breathed a sigh of relief and went to the kitchen to pour a glass of water.

Although Li Zhibin has this kind of character in front of Xu Xing, Yao Yuanyuan and others, when it comes to work, after more than a year of hard work, he is much more capable in everything he does.

"Come with me to the kitchen and get a glass of water. You should have boiled hot water before."

Let alone being in someone else’s home.

When Shenglan International invested in Didi Taxi, the person responsible for the co-investment of Qunxing Investment in Kyoto was Li Zhibin.

But just when he was about to take out his phone to see if there was any WeChat message, Li Zhibin next to him couldn't help but said: "Brother Xu, can you do me a favor?"

"Mom, why are you back?" Yao Yuanyuan breathed a sigh of relief, but became confused.

"You are nosy." Yao Yuanyuan rolled her eyes at him.

"What does it mean to reach the level that Xu Xing said?" Li Zhibin looked curious, "Are you very demanding? I thought it was donated to other charities."

Fortunately, the four of them stayed in the study and did not spread out. Otherwise, the flag that someone alone must encounter something supernatural might have been triggered.

"You still say it's not scary!" Yao Yuanyuan felt a little hairy, and Yan Chi next to her was also a little jealous. The aftereffects of watching the horror movie still haven't completely subsided.

After playing down a deck of cards, it was soon past eleven o'clock in the evening.

Thinking of this, Li Zhibin's whole body froze on the chair. He was neither standing nor sitting. He didn't know where to put his hands. His eyes fell on the mahjong in his hand, and he was stunned and didn't know how to react.

Listen carefully to what's going on outside.

Then there was a knock on the door.

"Can we talk about something relaxing?" Yan Chijiu spread the cards in his hand and lost his temper.

Pei Qinglan didn't think there was anything wrong. Her eyes fell on Li Zhibin and she could see that this young man was much simpler than Xu Xing.

Li Zhibin looked at Pei Qinglan's leaving figure, then looked at Yao Yuanyuan, and said worriedly: "Did I not perform well just now?"

"I always welcome friendly cooperation."

Pei Qinglan looked into the room and saw four young people sitting around the mahjong table. She couldn't help but smile and said: "I thought you would go out to play. How did you think of playing mahjong at home? Have entertainment activities developed to the middle-aged and elderly stage?"

"

This time Yao Yuanyuan invited Li Zhibin to her home for her birthday, which actually had the intention of making him familiar with her.

Seeing him like this, Xu Xing couldn't help laughing: "I thought you weren't afraid. You weren't hiding in Sister Yuanyuan's arms just now, were you?"

It's more of a chat session than a mahjong game.

But she wasn't that disappointed and wouldn't ask questions in front of people. Instead, she started chatting with Xu Xing.

The other three people did not pay attention to the outside world. Xu Xing also urged: "You touched the cards. Why are you so stunned?"

At this time, two girls in the toilet came out, so Li Zhibin whispered again: "Would you like to accompany me to the toilet again?"

But just as the card shuffler was shuffling the cards, Li Zhibin vaguely heard the sound of the door opening.

"I think you two have a good relationship. If you work hard, you might be able to get your certificate first without waiting for A Bin to graduate." Xu Xing chuckled.

"YY Live Broadcasting is coming very fast, and it was successfully listed early." Xu Xing said with a smile, "Aunt Pei has thought about it."

"You're going too fast." Li Zhibin muttered.

"Uh..." Xu Xing was not that scared and just asked, "Are you sure your mother won't come back today?"

Pei Qinglan sat on the single sofa, looking from Yao Yuanyuan to Xu Xing, wandering around the four young people, with a sense of curiosity and exploration in her eyes.

"Can you please pay attention to the occasion?" Xu Xing sighed.

"Only the state officials are allowed to set fires, but the people are not allowed to light lamps?" Yao Yuanyuan laughed, "You were much more excessive than the two of us before."

"How about not going too far?" Xu Xing asked shamelessly, "I can give A Bin to you tonight."

Before Yao Yuanyuan could reply, Yan Chijue on the side had already looked over with a sideways eyebrow: "It would be better for you to shut up."
