Seeing Zeng Rou call him for dinner, Zeng Li hurriedly chimed in, “Hurry up and eat. I’m starving! Big Fatty, Little Fatty, Eldest Aunt made a lot of delicious food today. Hurry up and go take a look.”
When Big Fatty and Little Fatty heard that there was food, they immediately ran away. Zeng Li collapsed on the ground and heaved a sigh of relief.
She clearly knew that her brother liked people skilled in martial arts, so why did she mention to Zeng Wei that Xiao Sheng was skilled in martial arts?
When Zeng Wei and Xiao Sheng fought previously, they felt that their clothes were in the way, so they only fought in their long johns.
Zeng Wei took out a clean spare towel from the cabinet beside him and let Xiao Sheng wipe his sweat.
Xiao Shengs moves were very swift and his endurance was very strong. When Zeng Wei thought of the team he wanted to build, he had a plan in mind. “Who did you learn your skills from?
Xiao Sheng scooped up his clothes and wiped his body with a towel. “There’s a guy who’s a few years older than me in my village. He and his brother are both soldiers. I learned it from them.”
When Zeng Wei heard that the other party was also a soldier, he became even more interested in the person who taught him. He asked, “What are their names?
Xiao Sheng paused in his actions. “My older brother sacrificed himself to protect the country’s borders. My younger brother’s name is Zhao Xing.”
Zeng Wei patted Xiao Shengs shoulder and said with a heavy tone, “Sacrificing one’s life for the country and the people is honorable. We’re all proud of him.”
Xiao Sheng nodded. People who chose to be soldiers were unafraid of death. Xiao Sheng knew that the moment Brother Zhao died, he definitely felt that his death was worth it.
After Zeng Wei and Xiao Sheng came out, everyone sat down.
After more than an hour of interaction, Xiao Sheng and Yu Bing had become much more familiar with the Zeng family. When they ate, everyone was no longer as restrained as before.
Zeng Wei even opened a bottle of wine. With wine at the dining table, the men ate much slower. From six o’clock, three men ate until almost nine o’clock before leaving the dining table.
Zeng Rou had already brought the two children home.
Zeng Li was drunk. Zeng Wei was dizzy, but at least he could talk and walk normally. Xiao Shengs face was a little flushed, but he didn’t feel drunk.
Zeng Wei and his wife sent Xiao Sheng and Yu Bing to the door. They really liked this young couple. Before they left, they even asked the two of them to come over for a meal before returning to City H.
Lin Xue thoughtfully instructed the chauffeur to pick Xiao Sheng and Yu Bing up first before sending the three of them home.
It was already half past nine when Yu Bing and the others arrived home.
There was a fire in the kitchen’s coal stove and a pot of water had been placed on it before they left the house at noon. At this time, small bubbles were still forming at the bottom of the pot.
Yu Bing poured out half a pot and placed it in the wooden basin for Xiao Lin to wash up first. Xiao Lin quickly washed his face and wiped his body in the kitchen.
Yu Bing took advantage of this opportunity to light a stove in Xiao Lin’s room. After Xiao Lin tidied himself up, he quickly entered the room.
Xiao Sheng leaned against the wall and stared at Yu Bings busy figure. He suddenly felt at home. He was clearly in someone else’s house, but this feeling was very strong.
Yu Bing only saw Xiao Sheng after she finished busying. She went forward and waved her hand in front of Xiao Sheng.
From the moment she realized that Xiao Sheng didn’t speak in the car, she suspected that he was drunk, but it wasn’t that obvious.
Xiao Sheng watched as Yu Bing tested if he was seeing things. He was amused by her cuteness and pulled her hand down gently before hugging her tightly.
When Yu Bing smelled the alcohol on Xiao Sheng, she was surprised to find that she didn’t feel disgusted even though she was so close to him.
She remembered that in her previous life, before she completely gave up on Yao Nian, Yao Nian had accompanied the supervisor to drink once. He got slightly drunk. Then, he lay on the sofa like a boss while she poured tea and took care of him. However, she was very repulsed by the smell of alcohol on him. When she handed him water, she wished that her arms could grow longer so she could stay as far away as possible.
The two of them sat next to each other quietly.
Just as Yu Bing felt that she was about to faint from the smell on Xiao Sheng, his magnetic voice suddenly sounded in her ear.
“Yu Bing, I really want to become an official soon.”
Yu Bing raised her face slightly in Xiao Shengs arms. The dim yellow light shone on the side of Xiao Shengs face and gave him a glow. Every contour of his face made Yu Bings heart pound..
