Ruan Bai showed the way awkwardly.
Braised chicken and rice are not delicious in every shop. To be on the safe side, Ruan Bai asked Mu Shaoling to drive to the house she rented before.
After returning to China, Ruan Bai lived here, and she was very familiar with the nearby shops, and she knew which shops had delicious food.
The black Range Rover parked domineeringly on the side of the road, and the surrounding residents would glance at the people who got on and off the car.
The father with a tall and straight figure, and a pair of twins who are fair and cute, are very eye-catching no matter what angle you look at.
It's meal time, and the braised chicken and rice shop is full of people.
The boss yelled: "No. 23 braised chicken and rice, it's ready!"
A high school student in school uniform came to the front desk, handed the boss a round plate with the number 23, and took away his braised yellow chicken and rice.
When the proprietress saw a family of four entering the door, her eyes lit up.
It's not because the business is good that people's eyes are bright, but the four are so good-looking, like movie stars.
Might be a movie star!
"Sit down, there is a seat inside!" The proprietress warmly entertained, and asked people at other tables to join the table: "One person, two people, join the table, it's meal time, and there are not enough seats!"
The high school student in school uniform took his braised chicken and rice and hurriedly sat down at another table, sharing the table with another couple, instead of occupying a four-person table alone.
The proprietress neatly wiped the table vacated by the high school students, and let the family of four sit down: "What do you want to eat?"
Ruan Bai took a look at Mu Shaoling, and remembered his reply "You are the master", so he ordered nervously and decisively: "Four servings of braised chicken and rice, two servings of normal taste, and two servings of non-spicy."
"We can eat spicy food..." Xiao Zhanzhan and Ruan Ruan said together.
Ruan Bai couldn't believe it, and looked at the child's father again.
Mu Shaoling stood in front of the table and didn't sit down: "Zhan Zhan can eat spicy food, but not soft food. The doctor told me to avoid it."
Ruan Bai told the proprietress.
The proprietress took it down and went to tell the boss.
When she came to deliver the tableware, the proprietress asked Ruan Bai in a low voice: "Aren't you celebrities?"
"No," Ruan Bai shook his head, and explained: "I used to rent a house in this community, and I have eaten at your restaurant many times."
The proprietress wiped the table again as if she didn't hear it, and smiled while wiping: "I thought you were big stars, here to experience life, what's the name of that...reality...reality show? If my small shop If I am lucky enough to be eaten by you once, then I will be angry!"
Ruan Bai knew it was all because of Mu Shaoling: "It's really not a celebrity..."
Strictly speaking, Mu Shaoling is indeed not a celebrity, but he is even more mysterious than a celebrity.
Fortunately, most of the people in the shop are ordinary people, some of them are migrant workers from nearby construction sites, they are very old, they don’t play Weibo, and they don’t pay attention to financial magazine news, so they don’t know who Mu Shaoling is. Let him and his family enjoy the rare time without being disturbed.
"Braised chicken and rice, good!" The proprietress helped to bring it over.
Zhan Zhan and Ruan Ruan took the chopsticks and began to eat excitedly. It was obvious that they liked it very much.
Ruan Bai suddenly felt very satisfied and happy. Did the two little guys inherit the ordinary genes of her ordinary people? I can adapt so quickly to any food and like it...
...
One p.m.
Mu Shaoling took the child and left the street with her.
The phone rang.
Mu Shaoling answered: "Grandpa, what's the matter?"
"It's like this, Shaoling. Your second aunt came to City A with the medical team. You know that your second uncle is seriously ill. He is about to die, and his mind is confused. Your second aunt thought, Try to take Zhanzhan and Ruanruan to the hospital, show it to your second uncle, and say that these two are your second uncle's grandsons, so that he can be happy before he dies."
said the old man.
The two little guys in the back seat of the car heard Mu Shaoling's speakerphone.
Ruan Bai also heard it.
"Then we, can't we go to the drama?" Ruan Ruan wanted to go to the drama with his father and auntie Xiaobai.
Ruan Bai couldn't get involved in the Mu family's family affairs.
"You can watch the drama another day." With one sentence from Mu Shaoling, the matter was settled.
...
Forty minutes later, Dong Zijun took Zhan Zhan and Ruan Ruan away.
"Aren't you going?" Ruan Bai sat in his car, not daring to get out of the car.
At the main entrance of the company, if she got out of the car, she would be seen by countless pairs of eyes.
Mu Shaoling drove: "I'll go, I'm afraid the old man will remember that I am the father of the children."
This time, Zhan Zhan and Ruan Ruan are pretending to be children from other people's family, and they are deceiving the old man who is about to die in good faith.
"Please stop a hundred meters away, I'll get off and walk back," Ruan Bai said.
Mu Shaoling didn't listen to her, and drove towards the theater: "I think we should talk about the children."
There are no two children in the car to enliven the atmosphere, and there are only two adults sitting, the atmosphere can easily deteriorate, and even every breath has a somewhat inexplicable meaning.
Talking about the child's problem, Ruan Bai was 100% willing to get off the car and go back to the company.
All the way to the repertory theater, Ruan Bai was silent.
Wait for him to speak.
But he didn't know what he was thinking, and he kept silent.
It is not suitable to communicate this question while watching a drama, Ruan Bai was forced to ask helplessly: "Can I see them more often?"
"Um."
The Range Rover drove to a full intersection, Mu Shaoling nodded, focused on the road, turned the steering wheel half a circle with his big hand, and the car drove to another street.
Ruan Bai breathed a sigh of relief: "Can I, occasionally...occasionally pick them up to live with me for two days?"
From the perspective of the child's biological mother, this request is not too much, she just wants to be closer to the child.
On this question, Mu Shaoling thought for more than ten seconds, but nodded in agreement.
Ruan Bai was greatly satisfied, and changed a lot towards him.
Outside the theater.
In the shared parking lot, Mu Shaoling's deep gaze swept across the Porsche Cayenne that was two parking spaces away from him.
Looking at the license plate number, it was Zhang Xing'an.
He also came to the play?
Based on his understanding of Zhang Xing'an, Zhang Xing'an should not be alone.
Ruan Bai actually didn't want to watch the play with Mu Shaoling, after all Zhan Zhan and Ruan Ruan didn't come, so the two of them seemed to be dating.
But Mu Shaoling's every sentence is very reasonable and convincing. Zhan Zhan Ruan Ruan likes this drama, but unfortunately she couldn't watch it. As a mother, she watched it and told it to her children when she went back, which is also an expression of love for children.
Mu Shaoling and Ruan Bai's tickets were not in the first row. When Dong Zijun booked, he understood the boss's psychological needs: he didn't want to be recognized, which indirectly caused him to be greeted by others and discuss business matters during his leisure time with his children.
After taking his seat, Ruan Bai faced the front and looked at the center of the stage.
Waiting for the drama to begin.
At this time, a cold and familiar voice sounded from the front row.
