Standing at the door of Li Mengqing's house, looking at the doorbell on the door, Cheng Xu hesitated for more than a minute before pressing it.
As everyone knows, Li Mengqing, who was inside the door at this time, was also listening intently to the movement outside the door.
"I saw him go upstairs on the balcony just now, why hasn't he arrived yet?"
Li Mengqing's little heart was also thumping, Ding Dong! Doorbell rang.
She got up at the speed of light, rushed to the door, and opened it.
Li Hengyun watched his daughter's actions, and he was also suffering from angina. Suddenly, he regretted agreeing to let Cheng Xu come over for dinner. He felt that this was the rhythm of giving away for nothing!
At the same time, the door of the leader's house was also opened. Seeing the two who were looking at each other at the door, Ding Zhen also showed an awkward smile and said:
"Yo, is this the first time a boyfriend has come to the door? I said why the aunt refused to introduce you to a partner several times. It turns out that she already has a boyfriend!"
Li Mengqing also blushed at this remark, and replied in a low voice:
"No, Aunt Ding, this is a very good classmate of mine."
"Is there any classmates who come to play at the New Year's dinner? Auntie understands it. Let me take a look and bring a gift."
While talking, Ding Zhen probed her head and looked at the bag that Cheng Xu was carrying. She did not expect that Cheng Xu was actually carrying two pillows.
Xin said, "It's not good for you to find yourself! It's too shabby to pick up two pillows when you come to your door during the New Year. If you don't cherish the golden turtle son-in-law I introduced to you now, you will regret it later."
Of course, she didn't say anything, but she didn't continue to speak at this time, which was equivalent to expressing her attitude.
Cheng Xu really didn't like this kind of gossip-loving aunt, so he didn't care about being nervous, so he moved forward.
Li Mengqing also immediately understood what he meant, simply greeted Auntie Lingju and welcomed Cheng Xu into the door.
"It seems that you are very popular. How many people are waiting to come to propose marriage?"
Cheng Xu originally wanted to make fun of the topic just now, but for some reason, he always felt a little sour when he said it.
"I don't even need to guess, you must have someone to introduce you to."
Li Mengqing fought back.
"Yes, yes, but I rejected it directly."
"It's the same with me. I refuse as much as I come. I'm an emotional killer."
"Hahaha."
The two smiled at each other and walked into the living room together.
After overcoming his own psychological obstacles, Cheng Xu also successfully entered the state.
First, he said hello to Li Mengqing's parents, and then presented his carefully selected pillow.
Originally, when Li Hengyun saw Cheng Xu and brought gifts, he wanted to refuse. He didn't know how many people he would refuse to give gifts every year. Moreover, Cheng Xu was not only a classmate of his daughter, but also an entrepreneur in Sanlin County. Human identities are actually quite sensitive.
Who knew that Cheng Xu came up with a good uncle and aunt, and completely substituted himself into the role of the junior, and he couldn't say anything else.
And he also looked at it. The gifts that Cheng Xu brought were only two pillows, and they were not valuables. He was afraid that it would save his daughter's face, so he accepted it.
Zhou Shu is preparing today's lunch in the kitchen. There are a lot of dishes to make. Today, Cheng Xu is not the only guest.
Hearing Cheng Xu coming, he also came out of the kitchen to say hello, and then returned to the kitchen again, there was no way, the dishes in the pot were waiting for no one.
Li Mengqing and Cheng Xu were sitting on the sofa, chatting about some recent events, but the more they talked, the more comfortable they became.
At this moment, the doorbell rang again. Cheng Xu, who was already relaxed, suddenly became nervous. Is there any relatives coming?
"It is estimated that my cousin is here. I will open the door."
Li Mengqing lifted the hem of his skirt and stood up gracefully, in stark contrast to just opening the door for Cheng Xu.
"Hello, Sister Jing, you're here!"
"You finally came back from vacation. It's really not easy to see you. Quick, help me carry the fruit, it will kill me."
Cheng Xu also got up, thinking that he should say hello to Li Mengqing's relative, and looked at the door, but he didn't expect that Li Mengqing's cousin turned out to be Teacher Li Mingjing!
Although both of them have the surname Li, it is too coincidental that "Li" is a big surname.
Cheng Xu got up together, and Li Mingjing immediately noticed that there was a stranger in the room, and after a closer look, it turned out to be Cheng Xu!
There was a clear look on her face, no wonder she rejected herself, it turned out that she already had a blind date.
"Xiaoqing! You told me that you are not interested in blind dates, so who is this?"
Li Mingjing didn't say hello to Cheng Xu for the first time, but asked deliberately pretending not to know each other.
I want you to not believe my vision and refuse the person I introduced to you. You see, this is still a kiss.
"Oh, Ms. Jingjing."
Without waiting for Li Mengqing to explain, Li Mingjing looked at Cheng Xu again and said:
"Didn't Boss Cheng say that these two days are busy and don't have time for a blind date? Isn't this still here Do you know each other?"
Li Mengqing was a little surprised, she just wanted to explain that Cheng Xu was just her classmate.
Cheng Xu also nodded awkwardly and replied:
"This is my college teacher."
At this time, the two also wanted to understand that the blind date who was rejected before they met turned out to be each other.
Seeing the familiar eye contact between the two, Li Mingjing also said in surprise:
"You two didn't know each other long ago, did you?"
"Can you not know me? Cheng Xu is Meng Qing's high school classmate."
Li Hengyun, who was watching TV, also interjected.
He had eaten the melon completely, and realized that the last time Li Mingjing said that the person he wanted to introduce to Mengqing was actually Cheng Xu, which was really a coincidence.
"This time it's really counted as my many times, try to explain, if there is fate, there is no need for a matchmaker at all."
Li Mingjing sighed and looked at the two with a smile on his face.
At this time, Li Mengqing's blushing face had already dropped, and he couldn't say a word.
After chatting for a while, Zhou Shu's dishes were already ready, and he greeted everyone to come to the table to eat.
Even Cheng Xu had to admit that some things really need a sense of ritual.
On the eve of the Spring Festival, listening to the lively music dedicated to the Spring Festival on TV and eating a home-cooked meal is an experience that no high-end restaurant can give.
Li Mengqing's mother's craftsmanship is very good. At first glance, she often studies and cooks at home, and she almost catches up with the hotel's standard.
After a few chats at the dining table, Zhou Shu realized that Li Mingjing and Cheng Xu also knew each other. She only knew that Li Mingjing was also a teacher at Xiakou University, but she didn't expect that the two of them happened to be in the same department.
