People are running for men, and Bai Mengyan is crying at the beginning

“What’s wrong with me talking to Xiao Xiang? He didn’t do anything wrong in the first place.”

Bai Mu said with a smile.

Although she and Xiang Long have never met, she already has a preliminary impression of Xiang Long from her usual phone calls with her daughter, and knows how good he is to Bai Lu.

Moreover, she also knew that Xiang Long’s reputation was getting higher and higher day by day. It could be said that he had excellent character and talent. Naturally, such an excellent son-in-law could not be missed easily.

Hearing Bai Mu’s words, Xiang Long smiled proudly at Bai Lu.

Bai Lu gave Xiang Long a roll of his eyes: “Virtue!”

Immediately, he grabbed the phone from Xiang Long and asked, “Mom, why are you calling me so late?”

“I just wanted to ask you and Xiao Xiang what they want to eat tomorrow.”

Bai Mu replied: “I prepared some seafood.”

Knowing that Xiang Long was with Bai Lu, Bai Mu asked, “Xiao Xiang, what kind of food do you want to eat? Auntie will cook it for you.”

“No, no, aunt, you don’t have to cook it specially for me. I’m not picky about food.”

Xiang Long said quickly.

“Yes, Mom, there is nothing Lili doesn’t like to eat.”

Bai Lu also said: “I want to eat braised pork, sweet and sour pork ribs, pickled fish, braised pork with pickled vegetables, tiger skin…”

Bai Mu is a good cook, not much worse than a hotel chef, so Bai Lu’s dishes are so smooth.

However,

Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted directly by Bai Mu:

“Yanyan, you gain weight by eating these things, and you have to work hard to lose weight after eating them. Let’s forget about it.”

Bai Lu: “…”

Are you still my mother?

If you had known I would be rejected, you might as well not have let me order.

Xiang Long also chuckled.

Bai Lu then rolled her eyes and asked with a smile: “Lili, do you want to eat what I just mentioned?”

While asking, his little hands skillfully climbed to Xiang Long’s waist.

Xiang Long’s face froze, feeling the soft flesh around his waist tightening, and he quickly said to Bai Mu:

“Auntie, actually I really want to eat the dishes Yanyan ordered.”

Only then did Bai Lu let go of her hand with satisfaction, and said with a smile: “You heard me, Mom, this is not your daughter who I want to eat, but Xiang Long wants to eat it, you just have to say whether you want to do it or not?”

“You’re such a stinky girl, you know how to bully others, Xiao Xiang.”

Bai Mu laughed and scolded, and comforted Xiang Long: “Xiao Xiang, please leave Yanyan alone and tell Auntie what you really want to eat.”

“No, Auntie, I think these dishes Yanyan mentioned are quite good, really.”

Feeling that the soft flesh around his waist was being manipulated again, Xiang Long had no choice but to tell him honestly.

Although Bai Mu couldn’t see it, she could probably guess what happened. However, she was naturally happy to see that her daughter could control her son-in-law, so she immediately smiled and said:

“Okay, since ‘you’ like to eat, then Auntie will cook it for you.”

“Thank you, aunt.”

Xiang Long politely thanked him.

Bai Lu also said loudly: “Thank you, Mother!”

“Go, go, if you want to thank me, come back early and help me pack my things.”

Bai Mu’s face changed instantly.

“Hello? Hello? Mom, I can’t hear what you said. Oops, my signal is too bad… I won’t say anything anymore, hang up now.”

Snapped!

Bai Lu simply hung up the phone.

Xiang Long: (｡ŏ_ŏ)

“What are you looking at?”

Noticing Xiang Long’s eyes, Bai Lu looked at Xiang Long sideways.

“Oh, nothing.”

Xiang Long quickly closed his eyes and smiled with some emotion: “I didn’t expect that you and auntie have such a good relationship.”

Generally speaking, we cannot say that there is indifference between children and their parents, but there is always a lot of unfamiliarity when they get along with each other.

In the previous life on earth, Xiang Long was not very close to his parents.

Of course, this does not mean that their feelings are not good, but they just do not know how to express their concern.

The same goes for the predecessor known from memory.

Therefore, Xiang Long felt faintly envious when he saw Bai Lu and Bai Mu getting along like friends.

Bai Lu didn’t think so much. She just thought that Xiang Long was thinking of his deceased parents. There was tenderness in his eyes and he said softly:

“It doesn’t matter, Lili, I will be your family from now on. If you don’t mind, you can treat my mother as your mother.”

“What do you mean?”

Xiang Long didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He held Bai Lu in his arms, lightly scratched the tip of her small nose, and said, “When we get married, aunt is my mother-in-law. What do you mean by taking it as such?”

“whee.”

Bai Lu also realized this and smiled sheepishly while lying in Xiang Long’s arms.

At this time,

From her angle, Bai Lu happened to see the clock on the wall, and then she realized that the time had reached around 11:50 pm.

She asked Xiang Long with some expectation: “Lili, it’s our birthday soon, what gift have you prepared for me?”

? ”

“Gift?”

Xiang Long pretended to be startled: “Isn’t it the wine and cosmetics I brought home with you?”

“Um?”

Bai Lu sat up from Xiang Long’s arms, her delicate cheeks full of surprise, and said anxiously:

“No, it’s just a door-to-door gift for my parents, I mean a birthday present for me – you…you’re not really unprepared, are you?”

As he spoke, his eyes began to turn red due to anxiety and disappointment, and his eyes became crystal clear.

If others said this, Bai Lu wouldn’t believe it. After all, this is a birthday gift for his girlfriend. How many men would forget it?

But there was no way, the image of Xiang Long’s wooden head was so deep into Lu’s heart that Bai Lu didn’t even suspect that Xiang Long was teasing her at this moment.

Seeing that Bai Lu was really disappointed and about to shed tears, Xiang Long stopped teasing her, laughed, and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes:

“I’m teasing you, and I even dropped a little pearl. How could I not prepare a birthday gift for you?”

Only then did Bai Lu understand. Her tears turned into laughter, and she slapped Xiang Long in annoyance: “I hate you. You tease me with this kind of thing, which makes me worry in vain.”

As she spoke, she said deliberately: “No, my weak heart has been seriously hurt, you have to compensate me.”

“How to compensate?”

“Well…one birthday gift is not enough, I want you to give me many birthday gifts!”

Bai Lu said charmingly.

“How much is a lot?”

Xiang Long asked with a smile: “Is 24 enough?”

“Well?”

Bai Lu was about to nod when she suddenly realized something and looked at Xiang Long with bright eyes:

“Wait, Lili, you mean…you prepared 24 birthday gifts for me?”

“right.”

Xiang Long nodded, gently rubbed Bai Lu’s hair, and said with a smile:

“Tomorrow is your 24th birthday, and it is also the first birthday that you and I have spent together. In the future, we will celebrate many birthdays together… Then, I suddenly felt a little regretful, because you spent the first 23 birthdays together. Without me, I was thinking that I must make up for all the 23 birthday gifts you received before!”

“Wow–”

Bai Lu felt warm and moved in her heart, her eyes became moist again, she hugged Xiang Long’s arm and said:

“Lili, I will fight with anyone who says you are an elm-headed person from now on – you can think of such romantic things, how could you be an elm-headed person?”

“Is this romantic?”

Xiang Long scratched his head and smiled: “I just wanted to make up for the regret that I couldn’t participate in the first 23 years of your life.”

“Yeah, that’s the romantic idea!”

Bai Lu nodded affirmatively, then jumped out of bed eagerly, holding Xiang Long’s hand and urging:

“Quick, it’s almost 12 o’clock, take me to see those 24 birthday gifts!”
