Chapter 900: The Passerby in the Campus Story Rejects Puppy Love 23
Words that are half true and half false are the most effective in fooling people.
Especially since the person who said this was Xie Yanzhou. There is no reason for the Xie family's prince to lie, right?
Therefore, the truth or falsity of these words is directly judged as true by the listener.
As soon as these words were spoken, not only Jiang Daliu, but even Zhao Gang looked over curiously.
Xie Yanzhou explained with a smile.
“Because we were good friends at school, I knew her hometown was Pinglan County.
She told me that the people here are very simple and honest, and there are many special snacks, such as sugar-roasted chestnuts. She even took the time to mail me a big bag yesterday.
The projects I was originally responsible for in the capital had just ended. In order to prevent me from neglecting them, my father recommended several counties for me to try out another project.
Pinglan County happened to be within the selection range, so I chose it for research.
It is indeed a bit of a coincidence. I was originally thinking of finding an opportunity to visit Miaomiao's family after the research was completed, but I didn't expect to meet you today.
Is grandma feeling better now?"
Xie Yanzhou's words were still half true and half false. He mentioned the selfish motive of "choosing Pinglan because of Miaomiao", but also packaged it with the attitude of a junior who "wanted to visit his family". This made him seem to value Miaomiao without making Jiang Daliu feel "abrupt".
The most important thing is the last sentence. Miaomiao’s grandma is the key. If she is not a close person, how could she know these things about Miaomiao?
After this sentence was said, it meant that Xie Yanzhou and Miaomiao’s relationship was indeed unusual.
Jiang Daliu felt warm in his heart after hearing this and was deeply moved for a moment.
As he spoke, he actually patted Xie Yanzhou's shoulder.
"My mother-in-law is much better now, thank you for your concern.
But what's the point of visiting or not!
Come home with me tonight, and I'll ask your aunt to cook some Pinglan specialties for you. Your aunt has always wanted to thank you in person.
If you hadn't taught Miaomiao and helped each other, Miaomiao wouldn't have been able to go from 50th in the grade to 30th now.
It's only been half a year, Yanzhou, you are really a benefactor to our family.
This time you chose Pinglan to conduct research. I won’t say anything else. Thank you, uncle!
Xie Yanzhou didn't expect things to go so smoothly. He originally wanted to say something more to get his father-in-law to take him home.
Who would have thought that my father-in-law's personality was not as calm as imagined, but had a bit of Pinglan's unique boldness.
Xie Yanzhou suppressed his excitement, looking like he wanted to go but was afraid to disturb others.
"Uncle Jiang, is this not a good idea?
Will it disturb Auntie and Miaomiao?
Mainly because I heard that grandma was injured, and I was afraid that my sudden visit would disturb you."
What he wanted was "Jiang Daliu's active invitation" rather than his "deliberate request", so that subsequent meetings would be more natural.
Xie Yanzhou even deliberately blurred the time when Jiang Daliu invited him, changing the evening that the other party originally said to be at noon, or a while later.
Jiang Daliu waved his hand with a firm tone.
"Don't bother me! Although you are much younger than me, I think we must be close friends.
From now on, let Miaomiao call you uncle and show some respect to your uncle."
Very good, Jiang Daliu is now completely drunk.
After hearing his father-in-law's words that he wanted to be brothers with him, Xie Yanzhou's expression froze like a wooden sculpture.
Who wants to be Miaomiao's uncle, and who wants to be the best friend of his father-in-law?
Zhao Gang also didn't understand why the welcoming banquet for Mr. Xie who came from the capital turned out like this.
However, it seemed that neither of the two parties found anything strange. Jiang Daliu even picked up his phone and prepared to tell his wife the good news.
"Uncle Jiang, don't worry. It's not too late to go back after dinner. Don't delay Auntie's cooking."
Xie Yanzhou deliberately slowed down his pace, which not only appeared considerate but also gave himself time to "sort out his mood".
I never thought that after simulating so many chance encounters between two people, I would use them all on my future father-in-law...
But so what?
He can finally see Miaomiao with a legitimate reason!
It was not until Zhao Gang saw Mr. Xie's free-spirited smile that he suddenly had an idea.
When he got married, he seemed to smile at his father-in-law as if he didn't want him to.
Therefore, the "research" of this prince of the Xie family is fake, he is clearly here to "pursue his deskmate"!
But he was smart and didn't point it out. He just smiled and agreed.
"This is truly fate! Mr. Xie, please come to Pinglan County more often in the future!"
Xie Yanzhou smiled and thanked him, his eyes inadvertently sweeping out the window - the direction of Yuyuan Community was vaguely visible.
It wouldn't even take five minutes to walk.
He will be able to send his father-in-law home and visit Miaomiao soon.
Thinking of this, he sent another message to Assistant Qian, asking him to send someone to buy some skin care products, cigarettes and alcohol. He would go to Jiang's house later and ask Assistant Qian to send them to the door.
He knew that this approach "in the name of fate" had been completed perfectly.
Meanwhile, Miaomiao was still helping her mother pack up New Year's goods. She had no idea that not only had her study partner come to Pinglan County, but through a "coincidental" drinking party, he had become "a must-bring-home junior" in her father's eyes...
Zhao Gang checked the time, then glanced at Jiang Daliu, whose brain was full of water but whose luck was good, and Mr. Xie, who was so calm that the expectation in his eyes seemed to be turning into reality.
In addition to being diligent at work, he also has the advantage of being tactful.
"Brother Jiang, Mr. Xie, it's getting late, let's end the meeting early.
It's a good opportunity for Mr. Xie to go home with you and introduce himself to your family. This is a great fate, so I won't get involved.
When you are done here, please give us your instructions."
His words not only gave Jiang Daliu a way out, but also satisfied Xie Yanzhou's wishes, killing two birds with one stone.
Jiang Daliu immediately agreed. After drinking, Jiang Daliu showed the straightforwardness of the Pinglan man to the fullest.
Please ask Xie Yanzhou to go out.
"Yes, yes, yes! Go back early."
Jiang Daliu didn't want to be in the embarrassing situation of not having to eat anything after they had just finished their meal. He just thought about fate.
Xie Yanzhou agreed with a smile, and before leaving, he gave Assistant Qian a look, suggesting that he deliver the gifts to the Jiang family's door as planned.
This place was very close to the Yuyuan Community, so they didn't drive. The two of them walked all the way. Jiang Daliu started chattering to Xie Yanzhou about Miaomiao's interesting stories, and later he was a little sobered by the cold wind. He always felt that something was wrong.
Instead, Xie Yanzhou listened attentively, nodding in response from time to time.
He knew that his Miaomiao had not gone out today, so he would see her the first thing he saw when he entered the house.
The longing made his eyes inadvertently reveal a hint of greed, but it was forcibly suppressed in the next second.
At this time in the Jiang family, Miaomiao was helping her mother put the newly bought oranges into the fruit plate.
"Mom, when will Dad be back today?"
Miaomiao asked casually. They had already had lunch and were just chatting. At this time, Miaomiao had no idea that she would receive a "big surprise" next.
Just as Mother Jiang was about to answer, her cell phone suddenly rang.
"Wife! Miaomiao's deskmate Xie Yanzhou is coming to our house! He's the top student in the grade!
He's coming back with me now, only five minutes left!
We've finished our meal, so you can wash some fruit and clean up the house."
"What? Miaomiao's deskmate? Why is he coming to our house suddenly?"
Mother Jiang was a little confused, and quickly turned around to tidy up the sofa, and gave instructions to Miaomiao at the same time.
"Miao Miao! Come on, help clean up the living room! Your classmate is coming to our house!"
Miaomiao put the fruit plate in her hand on the table with a clang, her eyes wide open.
"My deskmate? Xie Yanzhou? Isn't he in the capital? Why is he in Pinglan County? And to our house?"
Her mind was full of question marks, but her hands subconsciously tidied up the pillows on the sofa and put them away.
Five minutes later, the doorbell rang.
