She is worried that her mother hasn't come to her these days. Is it from the debt collector
Those casino people are brutal in debt collection.
When Li Xi came down from upstairs, he saw her still in the yard and asked the servant, "how long has she been outside?"
"I've been outside since I came back. I haven't come in." the servant put the dishes on the table.
Li Xi nodded: "go and let Niu Niu come out for dinner."
He went to the door and opened the door: "Yu Ning, it's time for dinner."
Yu Ning let out her breath and put her mobile phone back in her pocket: "Oh, here it is."
After the servant had finished the dishes, he withdrew.
When eating, Yu Ning was also very careless. She poked her chopsticks in the bowl several times and didn't send them to her mouth.
Li Xi put down his chopsticks and asked seriously, "I found something wrong with you long ago. I've been haunted from work to now. What's the matter?"
Yu Ning raised her head and looked at the man across the street in a daze. She found that he looked at his face and put down her chopsticks. She sighed: "my mother hasn't called me since last time. It's not like my mother's style. Will something happen?"
Li Xi said, "Oh, it's for this. Even the food is not delicious. Don't worry. She's fine."
"How do you know?" Yu Ning looked at him suspiciously.
"I've given her the money and nothing happened to her," said Li Xi.
After hearing this, Yu Ning didn't show any emotion. Instead, she looked at him angrily and asked, "why did you give her money? Who asked you to give her money."
She raised her voice several degrees uncontrollably. Niu Niu, who was eating at the side, stopped her chopsticks and turned to look at her always gentle mother with some fear in her eyes.
"Yu Ning, you scared Niu Niu." Li Xi said.
Yu Ning was stunned, lowered her head, touched Niu Niu's head, forced out a little smile: "Niu Niu, don't be afraid, mom isn't yelling at you, continue to eat."
"No noise." Niuniu said timidly. She thought her parents were arguing.
Li Xi squints at Yu Ning. Yu Ning explains to Niu Niu with some guilt: "Mom and dad didn't quarrel. We're... Discussing."
Niuniu nodded vaguely. She didn't understand the discussion, but she understood what her mother said and wasn't arguing.
Li Xi frowned and looked sullen: "I thought I was helping you out. I don't ask you to thank me. At least I won't accuse me like this."
Yu sighed. Although he was not as angry as before, he said eagerly: "Do you know that my mother will blame you for doing so? I know that 600000 is small money for you. You may not care about that money, but you don't know my mother. If you help her pay it back once, there will be a second time and a third time. In the future, she won't find me if she owes money. She will go directly to you. You can't get rid of it if you want!"
Li Xi smiled and said seriously, "600000 is small money for me, yes, but it's also money. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't even give 60 yuan."
His words, which are more overbearing than his confession, are to let Yu Ning know, because she, let alone 600000, 600000, 600000, he will also give out.
"Are you so excited that you're afraid I'll be cheated?" Li Xi squinted and looked at her.
Yu Ning was embarrassed by his sudden "confession", stared at him and said forcefully, "in short, next time you don't care about my family, you can't do it. They will pester you like leeches and can't get rid of you."
In fact, she is not only afraid that her mother will rely on Li Xi, but also afraid that she will be despised by Li Xi because of her bad family environment. She finally has a comfortable life now. She has never been so happy since she was born. She is afraid that this hard won happiness will be broken.
Li Xi stretched out her arm across the table and held her hand. Her thumb rubbed the back of her hand: "don't worry, there will be no next time. She won't ask you for money again, let alone me."
Yu Ning smiled bitterly and shook her head: "it's impossible. It can't be the last time. She didn't know how many times she gambled from childhood. How many times were the last time. She was addicted to gambling. In order to gamble, she sold the real estate left by her grandmother, leaving only the small house now. It's said that my biological father couldn't stand her gambling and abandoned us."
Li Xi held her hand and made a slight effort: "after helping her pay off her debts this time, no casino will dare to let her in, even a private casino will not let her in."
Yu Ning looked at him in surprise when she heard the speech: "why? How did you do it?"
"It's not me, it's ouyangye. No one dares not to buy ouyangye's face, so she has no place to gamble from now on. She won't ask you for money because she owes a huge amount of money."
Yu Ning was deeply humiliated and lost her face to ouyangye.
Her ashamed expression was seen by Li Xi. He said with relief: "it's all right. Ouyangye is his own person, and he won't look at you with colored glasses because of your family. Don't think about it."
Yu Ning nodded. No matter ouyangye or others, she could see that they were good people. It was just her inferiority and shame.
"Can we eat?" Li Xi looked at her with a smile.
Yu Ning nodded and looked into his eyes. She was suddenly a little shy. She always felt that his eyes were spoiled and spoiled her.
Because in the past 20 years, no one has ever treated her like this, come forward for her, solve problems for her, and give her a sense of peace of mind.
After a few mouthfuls of rice, Yu Ning couldn't help saying, "thank you."
Li Xi smiled: "we don't have to say this. I don't like listening. I feel very outspoken."
He found that Yu Ning was not good at guessing men's thoughts, so he told her his preferences, dislikes and taboos.
"Oh, I see." Yu Ning nodded and kept it in her heart.
After dinner, Yu Ning takes Niu Niu to do her homework on the tea table in the living room. She patiently tutors Niu Niu. She finds that most of the questions Niu Niu can do. Even if she can't, she can explain them to her immediately.
Li Xi came out of the study and caught a glimpse of the mother and daughter next to each other downstairs. After watching the meeting, the corners of her mouth involuntarily aroused a smile.
He looked around the space of the whole villa and felt that this was the feeling of home.
He walked slowly downstairs and heard the footsteps in the stairwell. Yu Ning and Niuniu turned back and smiled at Li Xi.
"What are you laughing at, so happy?" Li Xi went over and picked up Niu Niu's homework book: "let me see if I did it right?"
"Niuniu is so smart that she can do most of the questions. No, I'll talk a little and she can understand." Yu Ning said happily.
She believed that such a smart girl would be the same as other children under their careful care and the treatment of doctors.
Li Xi looked at it. It was really right. He said proudly, "that's it! Don't look whose daughter it is."
