Chapter 144 Money Tree
Tonight, the Lu family specially held a banquet to welcome the Lu family couple back and celebrate Mu An's coming to their home.
Sitting alone in the corner by Mu An was always awkward, as if this was their family feast.
Because she can't get in the conversation at all, but she is indeed an outsider.
So, she lowered her head in boredom and kept playing with her phone.
"An'an, what's wrong with you? You don't look very comfortable, why keep your head down?"
"Ah, no... I just don't know what to say."
Lu Hongying naturally put her hand on the back of Mu An's hand, so scared that she immediately took her hand back.
"Sorry, I was abrupt."
"Uh...it's okay, eat your food quickly."
Mu An quickly picked up his chopsticks and picked up a dish for Lu Hongying. It wasn't until Lu Hongying picked up the dish and put it in his mouth that Mu An suddenly realized something.
"Uh, that...I picked it up with my chopsticks..."
"It's okay, I like to eat An'anjia."
Xiao Zicheng, who was sitting on the other side of Mu'an, watched the two of them talking and laughing, feeling very irritable.
"I'll go out and be quiet." After speaking, he got up and left.
Mu An turned his head and stared blankly at his back, what's wrong with Xiao Zicheng, this person really has a very volatile temper.
"An'an, what are you looking at? Continue eating."
"It's nothing."
Mu An lowered his head and began to eat food thoughtfully.
Lu Hongying always felt that Xiao Zicheng and Mu An were working and getting along every day now, would there be secret feelings for each other?
Probably not...
Lu Hongying still knew very well that Xiao Zicheng still liked Zhong Lingxuan very much, because he often looked at Zhong Lingxuan's photos alone in a daze...
In that case, nothing will happen between him and Mu An, it's better to worry too much.
Xiao Zicheng wandered quietly in the backyard by himself, took out his mobile phone, and looked at the latest trending searches.
Tsk...Mu An really did something good in his previous life, so he was able to gossip with him in this life.
But when he saw the next item, he squinted his eyes uncomfortably, it turned out to be the scandal between Zhong Lingxuan and Yan Kai.
That's right, thinking back on this variety show carefully, Zhong Lingxuan and Yan Kai are always very close.
Hehe, why didn't I notice it at the beginning?
"Hey, what are you thinking?"
Mu An curiously patted Xiao Zicheng on the back, and sat beside him.
"Why don't you go eat?"
"I'm full, I went out to digest, and then I saw you."
"Oh."
"You are very bad at talking."
Mu An couldn't help complaining, "You're like this, it's no wonder there are girls who like you."
When Xiao Zicheng heard this, he was furious, and turned his head to stare at her: "So don't you girls like Lu Hongying who is gentle like Lu Hongying, and Yan Kai who is so affectionate?"
"What does this have to do with Yan Kai and Lu Hongying?"
"It's just an analogy."
"I'm dying of laughter, but to be honest, Lu Hongying is indeed very gentle."
"Then you marry him."
Mu An froze for a moment when he heard this, could she think that Xiao Zicheng was jealous?
No... He still likes Zhong Lingxuan in his heart.
"This... Let's forget it, and wait until when I become a gold agent and become awesome."
"Heh, with me as a cash cow, you can't immediately become a gold broker."
"Don't think too highly of yourself, okay? The current circle is very mixed, and there are so many newcomers. If you just come back, if you don't work hard, you might be surpassed."
"Laughing to death, it's impossible."
Xiao Zicheng rolled her eyes in displeasure. This woman speaks really badly, so why can't she obey him?
"Okay, it's time to go back. Uncles and aunts must be in a hurry after being out for so long."
"I think you are afraid that Lu Hongying will be in a hurry?"
"Tch, whatever you say."
This time, Mu An didn't refute, and she really wanted to see what Xiao Zicheng's reaction would be.
But I didn't see any unnecessary expressions on his face, so... this sick and delicate villain is difficult to attack.
After returning to the kitchen, Lu Hongying's expression froze when he saw the two of them coming back together.
Sure enough, Mu An went to look for him.
"An'an, Zicheng, you've been out shopping for so long, come sit down and eat something."
Lu's mother looked at the two of them lovingly. Although she said that Xiao Zicheng was her younger brother, the age difference between the two of them allowed them to be mother and son.
"I'm not very hungry yet."
Xiao Zicheng stretched out his hand and casually opened a chair and sat down, but he was quite tired.
"An'an, come and have something to eat."
Lu Hongying enthusiastically picked up new bowls and chopsticks for Mu An and packed many dishes for her.
Mu An took the dishes with an awkward smile, but she really couldn't eat any more.
"thanks, thanks."
However, under Lu Hongying's fiery gaze, Mu An bit the bullet and finished the dishes.
"belch……"
She hiccupped uncomfortably and touched her belly with her hands. She was really full, as if she had been pregnant for several months.
"What's wrong? Too full?"
Lu Hongying spoke softly, looking at her with tenderness in his eyes.
"That's right, I ate too much. I finally digested it, but I was hungry again."
"Then let Hongying go for a walk with you to digest food."
Mother Lu seized the opportunity and made this proposal.
"Ah? No need..."
"That won't work."
Mother Lu gave Lu Hongying a look, and he immediately understood, and pulled Mu An out directly.
Looking at the backs of the two of them going away, Lu's mother was very satisfied, "It seems that these two children still need our assistance, don't you think, Zicheng?"
"Yes."
"Why are you so perfunctory?"
"No, I just think you worry too much about their affairs."
"You don't understand. They're both at the age of marriage. They have to match up. I know my son very well. He must like Mu An."
"Hehe, then I really thank you for Hongying, mother."
"Tsk..."
Mother Lu stood up and walked to Xiao Zicheng's side, and patted him on the shoulder vigorously, "You have been very strange lately. I heard that Zhong Lingxuan is back. Did she come to look for you?"
"Sister, this matter has nothing to do with you."
"Lu Yu, look at him, how come this has nothing to do with me?"
"Oh, Zicheng, after all, she is also your older sister."
Lu Yu is a strict wife, and when he heard what Lu's mother said, he quickly agreed.
"Sister, I have nothing to do with her, so don't worry."
Hearing this, Mother Lu seemed to have heard a joke, "Are you okay? As far as I know, she just found you a few days ago and asked you to attend her banquet or something. You told me that you have already no problem?"
