C730 Good Boy
Xu Zhiyuan had trusted Lu Zhiwei all these years. Even his phone was taken away by Lu Zhiwei, let alone locking the study room.
If everything in the study room was the same as before, even if Lu Zhiwei did not find any reliable clues, she would not feel anything. But Xu Zhiyuan had locked the study room.
This lock was very suspicious, as if there was a secret hidden inside.
The more Xu Zhiyuan did not want Lu Zhiwei to go in, the more Lu Zhiwei wanted to know what was hidden inside.
Lu Zhiwei stood at the door of the study for a long time but could not dispel her doubts. But today was not early. Even if Xu Zhiyuan went out, he would be back. Lu Zhiwei wanted to find someone to pick the lock, so she could only suppress her doubts.
As long as she stayed at home, Lu Zhiwei would think of the locked door. She might as well go out for a walk alone.
Lu Zhiwei walked aimlessly on the road. When she saw the couple talking and laughing, she felt sad. She used to be so close to Xu Zhiyuan, but now there was only unfamiliarity between the two of them. Xu Zhiyuan even locked the door of the study room.
At this moment, Xu Zhiyuan did not have the same thoughts as Lu Zhiwei. He rushed to Zuo Muye's house with the incubator and found that he came too hastily. Furthermore, he did not have any interaction with Cheng Nuo. It was too strange that he came to their house just like that.
"Uncle Xu?" The person who opened the door was Zuo Muye. The meaning of the two men looking at each other quickly became clear. Zuo Muye nodded slightly at Xu Zhiyuan and turned to shout at home, "Cheng Nuo, Uncle Xu is here."
Cheng Nuo only knew Xu Zhiyuan. She was sleeping with Yunxiao when she heard Zuo Muye calling for her.
"Uncle Xu." Cheng Nuo was a little surprised. Xu Zhiyuan gave her the impression that he was an amiable elder, but even so, she did not have much interaction with Xu Zhiyuan. Xu Zhiyuan's sudden visit surprised her.
"I haven't told you before, have I? Uncle Xu and I are old friends. Uncle Xu brought me my favorite food today." As smart as Zuo Muye was, he knew Xu Zhiyuan had brought food with him when he saw the thermos in Xu Zhiyuan's hand.
Of course, Xu Zhiyuan must have brought food for Cheng Nuo, but it was not the right time to tell Cheng Nuo the truth. Therefore, he had no choice but to flatter himself.
"Yes, yes, yes. Today's meal was personally cooked by your Aunt Lu. I remember that you used to like eating it the most..." Xu Zhiyuan said that, but his eyes were always on Cheng Nuo.
Actually Cheng Nuo did not look very similar to Xu Wanwan at first glance. However, when one looked closely at their faces and facial features, they were about sixty to seventy percent similar.
Probably because the temperament of the two of them were different, the feeling they gave people was also different.
Cheng Nuo felt a little strange being stared at by Xu Zhiyuan like that, but it was just a little strange. She did not feel uncomfortable. Instead, she looked at Zuo Muye helplessly and said, "You are really not polite. You even asked Uncle Xu to bring you food from far away."
"We are all on the same side. What is there to be polite about?" Zuo Muye's words were full of meaning. It was just that he was used to being indecent. Even Cheng Nuo did not understand the other meaning of his words.
"Yes, yes, yes. We are all on the same side. What's there to be polite about? Nuo, can I call you Nuo?" Xu Zhiyuan looked at Cheng Nuo eagerly. The person in front of him was his daughter. He was the only child in the world who was related by blood.
Being stared at like this by Xu Zhiyuan made her feel uncomfortable, but Cheng Nuo still nodded, "Of course you can."
Although it was just a simple promise, Xu Zhiyuan seemed to have found a great treasure. He immediately brought the thermos to the table with a smile on his face.
"Is this... Sweet and sour?" Cheng Nuo's eyes widened in surprise. Zuo Muye did not like to eat food with sugar, but he preferred to eat dishes like sweet and sour fish.
"Yes," she said. This is the spine of the sweet and sour fish. Uncle Xu must know that you like to eat sweet and sour food and specially brought it for you." Zuo Muye went to get the chopsticks and chopsticks as he spoke. He did not show any signs of discomfort.
Cheng Nuo had always trusted Zuo Muye and naturally did not have any doubts about his words. She nodded and thanked Xu Zhiyuan, "Uncle Xu, thank you."
"No need to thank me, no need to thank me. Quickly try it and see if you like it or not. If you like it, I will ask your mom... Auntie Lu to make it for you in the future."
"By the way, Uncle Xu came at this time. He must not have dinner with Auntie Lu, right?"
Of course Xu Zhiyuan wanted to bring Lu Zhiwei over, but with Cheng Nuo and Qiao Yumeng's relationship, Lu Zhiwei would definitely make things very ugly.
"It's okay, I left a part for her."
Cheng Nuo nodded and took out the vegetables from the thermos one by one. When she poured it into the plate, she found it was full. It was enough for the three of them.
"Why are there so many? Is the rest enough for Aunty Lu?"
Xu Zhiyuan felt touched and sad when he heard Cheng Nuo's question. The kind girl in front of him was just as Lu Chen had said. She was as kind as Qiao Yumeng.1
Moreover, such a kind girl was his daughter.
"What's wrong with Uncle Xu?"
"No, no. I just feel that you and Meng are very similar. Both of you are good children."
"It's because we have similar personalities that we play so well. Me and her..."
Cheng Nuo could not stop talking. Xu Zhiyuan listened to her seriously and did not show any signs of impatience.
After dinner, Cheng Nuo brought Xu Zhiyuan to the room to look at the sleeping Yunxiao. Looking at this little child, Xu Zhiyuan felt his heart was filled with tenderness. This child was his grandson and he also had a grandson.
After making an appointment to return the next day, Xu Zhiyuan reluctantly left Zuo Muye's house.
When he returned, it was only past eight o'clock in the evening. Because he had finally gotten to know his daughter intimately once, Xu Zhiyuan was in a very good mood. Even his face had a smile on it.
Seeing Xu Zhiyuan's smug look, Lu Zhiwei suspected that there was an unclear secret between him and Qiao Yumeng.
"Ah Yuan, where did you go tonight?"
"Wife." Xu Zhiyuan smiled at Lu Zhiwei and walked over to sit with her on the sofa. "Can you cook with your own hands tomorrow?"
Xu Zhiyuan had not called Lu Zhiwei's wife for a long time. This touched Lu Zhiwei a little, but what Xu Zhiyuan said next made Lu Zhiwei feel like someone had splashed a bucket of cold water on her head.
"Why?" Her voice was cold and hard.
"This..." Xu Zhiyuan did not know how to explain. He could not say that Cheng Nuo liked Lu Zhiwei's food very much, could he?
