Chapter 16

"Very good." Fan Xing answered truthfully.

"Really? Then, did they give you a gift? Here, the first time you see your in-laws is to give you a gift."

"Well, here it is."

"How much?" Fan Meixi's eyes glowed, a little different from her usual gentle and dignified look.

Fan Xing didn't expect her to ask such a straightforward question, so he pursed his lips and smiled shyly, "I didn't actually..."

Fan Meixi immediately understood that Fan Xing didn't want to talk, and interrupted him with a smile, "Mom has no other intentions, just happy for you. I was a little worried before, after all, people like the He family are a bit complicated, Fan Xing, you are so kind and simple, mother I'm afraid you'll be wronged. But now that it's all right, my mother is finally relieved. Come on, you're hungry, let's talk while we eat."

It just so happened that the food had already arrived, so Fan Meixi took the opportunity to divert the topic and asked Fan Xing to eat.

Fan Xing is really not picky about eaters, he eats what he wants, not to mention that when it was already past lunch, his stomach was already growling, and he felt like he could eat a cow.

But Fan Meixi had a morning meeting by herself. She didn't seem to be hungry at all. She put down the cutlery before eating two bites, and looked at Fan Xing with a smile. She added water to Fan Xing for a while, and wiped the corner of Fan Xing's mouth with a tissue for a while. It seems that the sauce is not here to eat, but to come to see Fan Xing for dinner.

The troubled Fan Xing didn't have the heart to eat, so he put down the cutlery after taking two bites, and thanked her with a smile, "Thank you mom, I'm full too."

Fan Meixi probably didn't really care whether he was full or not. He didn't pay attention to how much he ate. He just asked with a routine smile, "Is it just this? Do you want to order something else? Is the dim sum good? Mingyu That kid doesn't taste good every time he eats, but he eats more desserts than anyone else. How about we have some desserts too?"

"No, I don't like sweets very much. Is there anything Mommy?"

Fan Xing found that he really couldn't get along with Fan Meixi for a long time. He was too uncomfortable, forcing him to lie and escape. At this time, the mobile phone on the dining table rang, and it was He Qingmo's call. Fan Xing seemed to be watching When the savior arrived, I quickly picked it up and connected it.

"Brother." The voice carried an unconscious lightness and joy.

The man on the other end of the phone laughed, "So happy to receive my call?"

Only then did Fan Xing realize that he really seemed too enthusiastic. He rubbed the tip of his nose uncomfortably and asked with a smile, "Are you looking for me?"

The man didn't tease him anymore, "Well, where is it?"

"I was in a restaurant near Qing University, and I wanted to..."

"Give me the address and pick you up."

Fan Xing didn't ask what to do, and quickly agreed to send the address to He Qingmo.

Anyway, in his opinion, staying with He Qingmo is much better than staying with Fan Meixi.

After hanging up the phone, he explained to Fan Meixi apologetically, "I'm sorry mom, my brother seems to have something to do with me. I may have to leave first."

Fan Meixi naturally didn't care, and was even very happy, "It doesn't matter, you can't have dinner with your mother when? Mr. He is so busy, so it's rare for you to be free. Of course, the two of you will have to live in the two-person world. Mr. He will come to pick you up later, right? Exactly, Mom bought the order and went down to wait with you."

No need, I can do it myself!

But without giving Fan Xing a chance to refuse, Fan Meixi had already paid the bill by herself and dragged him downstairs.

But He Qingmo said that he came to pick him up, and it was impossible for someone to be nearby, so he would definitely have to wait for a while.

At this moment, Fan Meixi finally got to the point.

"Fan Xing, actually, Mommy wants to ask you for a favor today. I didn't want to talk, I was worried that Mr. He would misunderstand you. After all, you just got married. But now Mr. He has brought you to meet your parents. The relationship between them is also very good. The key is that if you are in a hurry, your mother will not meet with you. It is your brother who is not good enough. He can't learn well, so he wants to be a star and sign up for a talent show. That show was sponsored by Mr. He's company. As long as Mr. He speaks, it will be much easier for Mingyu to debut. Look, can you find a chance to talk to Mr. He and ask him to do him a favor?"

Fan Xing was a little strange just now. Since He Qingmo had already helped the Gu family as promised, why did his mother come to have dinner with him? Now know that there is something else going on.

He smiled embarrassedly, "Mom, I may not be able to help with this matter. Actually, I and He..."

"Fan Xing!" Fan Meixi interrupted him by grabbing his hand, "I know that you and Mingyu didn't grow up together and have no relationship, but Mingyu is your younger brother. Blood is thicker than water, you help Help him, now he can count on your brother, if it's your mother begging you, you can ask Mr. He for a favor, it's just a little effort for him."

Fan Xing looked at her, and a picture of him on the way to the Civil Affairs Bureau suddenly appeared in his mind that day. His mother also held his hand like this, saying that he begged him, that only he could help the family.

It's only been a few days, and it's here again, and only he can help Gu Mingyu.

For the past 18 years, Fan Xing had never known that he was so important. Without him, it was as if the earth would not turn.

There was a rare irritability in his heart, and he gently broke free from Fan Meixi, his voice was not loud, but his attitude was firm, "Sorry, Mom, I really can't help you."

When Fan Meixi opened her mouth and wanted to say something, He Qingmo's car had already stopped beside the two of them, the window slowly rolled down, the man nodded to Fan Meixi, and turned to Fan Xing, "Go?"

Fan Xing didn't want to wait for a moment. After saying goodbye to Fan Meixi, he hurriedly got on the co-pilot.

Fan Meixi looked reluctant, and seemed to want to say something, the window was gradually rising, and the car was moving away.

She thought for a while, picked up her phone and sent a message to Fan XingFan Xing, please, for the sake of the brothers, help Mingyu this time, okay?

Fan Xing in the car couldn't help frowning when he saw the message, and then deleted the message.

It's not that he doesn't want to help Gu Mingyu. If it's really an effort, it doesn't matter if he helps.

But why did he ask He Qingmo to help? Just because they have obtained the certificate, they are regarded as a family, regardless of you and me?

In fact, so far, they can only be regarded as living under the same roof.

Of course, this matter seemed to be an effort for He Qingmo. He opened his mouth, and He Qingmo might really agree, but why did he want to owe him favors for an irrelevant person?

Gu Mingyu and him are just strangers with blood ties, aren't they?

In fact, even Fan Meixi refused when he begged him to marry He Qingmo to help the Gu family get through the difficulties that day. Why would he marry someone he doesn't know for the sake of the Gu family?

Is he going to say yes because his mother begged him?

No, it was his mother who finally made the condition that as long as he agreed, he would pay him a large sum of money before he agreed.

He did it for the money!
