Chapter 372: Chapter 218: Visit to the Wen Family
When Luo Ye and Xing Nongyao found the parking lot, Wen Song was already in the car. Mou Ye approached the window with a grin, "Eldest Uncle, sorry to have kept you waiting!"
"What formalities with your uncle? Hurry up and get in!" Wen Song said with a laugh as he poked Luo Ye’s forehead, then turned his attention to Xing Nongyao who stood behind Luo Ye, looking slightly uneasy, "Welcome, you two girls!"
"Thank you, Uncle!" Xing Nongyao replied in unison, and the corners of Wen Song’s lips curled into a smile, "Xing Nong, Yaoguang, I’m not a military man, just relax."
His warm smile eased Xing Nongyao’s slight nervousness at once.
"Uncle, you actually know our names?" Xing Nong asked, her face full of joy. Who wouldn’t be happy to be given such attention?
"Ye’er has been talking about you on the phone, and so has Little Pumpkin. It would be wrong if I didn’t know."
Hearing that Little Pumpkin had also been talking about them made Xing Nong feel guilty. Ah, they were talked about even before arriving, what to do now?
"Pumpkin, Demon, hurry up and get in the car." Luo Ye opened the car door, urging them, but then heard Uncle Jiang’s voice sounding quietly from the car next to them, "Little girl, after seeing your uncle, you don’t see your uncle Jiang anymore, the distinction of closeness is made just like that!"
Startled and pleased, Luo Ye turned around and saw Uncle Jiang slowly winding down the car window next to them, his smiling face appearing, to which Xing Nongyao saluted promptly, "Greetings, Commander!"
Uncle Jiang waved his hand with a laugh, "We’re in a private setting, don’t be so formal."
"Uncle Jiang, were you specifically waiting for me? Am I that distinguished?" Luo Ye moved closer to Uncle Jiang’s window, "Didn’t you say your current identity made it inconvenient to meet me?"
"Did I see you?" said Uncle Jiang as he wound the window back up.
Luo Ye stood in a daze, scratching her head, then patted Xing Nongyao, who was also dazed by Uncle Jiang’s actions, "Let’s get in the car and ignore him."
"Ha ha..." Uncle Jiang laughed heartily as he wound the window back down, "Ye’er was nitpicking, how could I not play along?"
Luo Ye pouted unhappily, "Ever since I came here, this is the first time I’m seeing you. Even phone calls weren’t allowed. How did it become my fault?"
Uncle Jiang smiled and gestured with his hand, "Alright, alright, I won’t tease you anymore. It’s Uncle Jiang’s fault. Hurry up and get in the car, I’m going to the Wen Mansion too."
"Why didn’t you say so earlier? Uncle Jiang is getting more and more annoying." Luo Ye turned and pushed Xing Nongyao into the car.
Uncle Jiang sighed dramatically, "Uncle Jiang is becoming more annoying, while Brother Ye is becoming cuter and cuter. Alas, my status is plummeting."
"Uncle Jiang!" Luo Ye protested softly and quickly got into the car and closed the door, sneaking a glare at Wen Song, knowing from the smile on Eldest Uncle’s face that he was in on it with Uncle Jiang and hadn’t reminded her earlier.
Without looking back, Wen Song said, "Ye’er, Uncle has spotted your little movement."
"Eldest Uncle, what little movement?" Luo Ye looked innocently puzzled.
Wen Song’s face turned serious, "I see, it seems Ye’er has an eye twitch. Are you tired from the selection today? Remember to have your Eldest Aunt massage it when you get back."
"Pfft ha ha..." Xing Nong and Yaoguang couldn’t hold back any longer.
The driver also had a smirk playing on his lips, trying to suppress a chuckle. After following the secretary for five years, this was the first time he had seen the secretary in such a light.
Luo Ye made a face behind Wen Song’s back. Thinking about how Eldest Uncle was just trying to help Xing Nongyao and herself relax, she felt a warm feeling inside. To make the solemn Eldest Uncle crack a joke was a real sense of achievement!
The laughter continued all the way to the Wen Family, with the cars entering the antique Wen Family Mansion one after another. Gazing upon a courtyard the size of a village, Xing Nongyao’s mouth hung open for ages.
After the car stopped, Luo Ye prodded their foreheads, "Don’t look like you’re about to eat someone, get out of the car."
Having been pulled out of the car by Luo Ye, the two were still in a daze, overwhelmed by the ancient charm and vast size of the courtyard.
"Ye’er, look after the two friends," said Wen Song without surprise at their reaction. In fact, it would be strange if they were truly calm.
The Wen Mansion had many envious admirers not only because of the legendary dragon vein, but also due to its environment, landscape, size, and architecture among other aspects.
...
Wen Family guest room.
Luo Ye went to call her mom, leaving only Xing Nong and Yaoguang in the guest room.
"Embarrassing, embarrassing, embarrassing..." Xing Nong buried her head under the blanket, rolling back and forth, as Yaoguang gave her a pat on the butt, "It’s already done, rolling into a dough won’t help."
