Chapter 1620: Expected or Available (14)
When Yueyue followed Su Zhen upstairs again, she had already held several boxes of handmade chocolates brought back from abroad in her hand. When she was about to run to her room happily, Huo Qiran suddenly called her.
Of course Yueyue knew what it meant for her brother to call her, and she showed her face unwillingly, "Brother..."
Jingli accompanied Xixi and played with candy not far away. When she heard the brother and sister start to communicate, she raised her head, but happened to see Su Zhen walking up too.
"Just let her keep it!" Su Zhen said, "The little girl has been thinking about it for so long. If you don't say it, I won't say it, she won't say it. How could Aunt Qianqian know?"
"Believe me, my mother will know everything she wants to know." Huo Qiran shrugged at her, then looked at Yueyue again, "What do you think?"
Yueyue obviously felt deeply in agreement, and the expression on her face became aggrieved in an instant.
Su Zhen seemed to remember something, couldn't help laughing and said, "Yes, it seems that there is never anything that can be hidden from Aunt Qianqian... What should I do? Why don't I help you with it first?"
"Sister Susu, you won't stay in Tongcheng often!" Yueyue said, "What if you return to Huaicheng?"
Su Zhen thought about it and pointed at Huo Qiran, "Then you can only beg your brother!"
"Brother..." Yueyue immediately adopted the suggestion and pulled Huo Qiran and shaking his head and tail to pray.
Huo Qiran had never had any choice but to reach out to take the chocolate box in her hand, "At most you can eat one box a month."
"Wait a minute! I want to think about which box I will eat first!" Yueyue stared at the boxes of chocolates in front of her, thinking about it, but she couldn't make up her mind after all.
"Eat the red box first, then the blue ones, and the two are the only ones behind!" Seeing her so entangled, Jing Li, who was not far away, finally couldn't help but speak out and gave her advice.
"Really?" Yueyue turned to look at her.
Jing Li nodded with a smile, "These chocolates have their own characteristics, so it should be impossible to eat them like this."
Yueyue immediately walked to Jingli, "Sister Jingli, you seem to be very knowledgeable about snacks and candies!"
When Jing Li heard this, his eyes seemed to be frozen for a moment, and then he smiled and said, "Because when I was a child, I loved eating candy like you!"
"Brother, look!" Yueyue immediately seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw. "Sister Jingli also likes to eat candy, she has not become a fat girl, nor has she tooth decay!"
Huo Qiran was a little helpless. Before he could speak, Jing Li said: "That was when he was a child. When he grew up, he really didn't dare to eat too much. Now he doesn't eat much."
"So you like food, can you just give up if you give up?" Yueyue said, "How did you do it?"
After hearing this, Jing Li still smiled, "Some things, when it's time to give up, they can only give up."
When Huo Qiran heard this, he couldn't help but look at Jing Li in depth, but saw that she had a calm face and a bright smile, and she didn't seem to have thought of any unpleasant past.
He looked at Jingli, and Su Zhen behind him looked at him, and finally suddenly said, "What are we going to eat tonight? I have been abroad for so long and finally come back. Huo Qiran, you want to treat me to something delicious!"
Huo Qiran turned to look at her: "Eat at home tonight. Yueyue will eat a lot of messy things when she goes outside."
When Yueyue heard this, she couldn't help but bare her teeth at her brother.
"Okay." Su Zhen said, "I like your aunt's skills anyway. I haven't eaten home-cooked dishes for a long time!"
Huo Qiran then walked to Jing Li and Xixi again, "Stay here to have dinner together tonight. There are no elders at home, so we can eat."
After hearing this, Jing Li chuckled and said, "If we don't disturb too much, then we will disturb you!"
...
There were indeed only a few of them on the dinner table. Xixi liked Huo Qiran and wanted to rely on him, so Huo Qiran took over the task of taking care of her meal.
Seeing that he was so skillful and meticulous, Jing Li couldn't help but say, "Why are you so good at taking care of the children?"
Su Zhen couldn't help laughing and said, "Isn't it possible? She has been scrambling with her father to take care of Yueyue since she was a child, for fear that she would take less care of herself. No one is better at taking care of children than him. Don't worry if Xixi leaves it to him!"
Jing Li smiled, turned around and saw Xixi sticking Huo Qiran tighter. He quickly picked up a tissue to wipe Xixi's mouth, "Xixi has a good meal, don't disturb Brother Qiran too much."
Huo Qiran heard this and said, "Xixi is much easier to take care of than Yueyue when she was a child. My sister--"
Yueyue immediately became dissatisfied, "Brother!"
Huo Qiran chuckled: "Okay, okay, don't say it."
Yueyue still pouted and snorted, and Su Zhen laughed from the side, "Oh, you brother, have you never loved your sister the most? You are having fun with your sister's embarrassing things now. Isn't it a bit unwilling to be Huo Qiran?"
Huo Qiran glared at her slightly and said, "Don't talk nonsense."
Su Zhen also snorted slightly, "You don't want to listen to me now!"
Huo Qiran picked up a piece of fish and put it into her bowl, "The more you say, the less you eat. Don't you want to eat home-cooked dishes?"
Su Zhen raised her eyebrows, "I don't like eating this fish anymore!"
Huo Qiran looked at her helplessly, and finally picked up another piece of crab meat and put it into her bowl.
Only then did Su Zhen start eating with satisfaction.
Jingli wiped Xixi's mouth and hands with a wet wipe. When she turned her head, Yueyue seemed to be persistent in giving up eating candy. "Sister Jingli, do you still like to eat candy now?"
Jing Li hesitated for a moment, then nodded again and said, "Love."
"Then can you resist eating?"
"Yes." Jing Li smiled slightly, "because she knew that eating a little more would cause tooth decay and gain weight... At that time, it would be her own who was sad to be ugly."
Yueyue seemed to understand but didn't understand, and frowned slightly.
Su Zhen looked up at Jing Li, and just smiled and said, "Don't pay attention to this girl, eat more food."
Jing Li also smiled, "Okay."
...
After dinner, Huo Qiran drove Jing Li Xixi and Su Zhen home.
"Let Jingli and Xixi first." Su Zhen sat in the passenger seat and said, "Then you go to my house and sit for a while, I'll show you something."
Huo Qiran responded lightly.
Several people were chatting while driving, and before they knew it, they arrived at Jingli's residence. Huo Qiran parked the car and got out of the car and took Xixi from Jingli's arms first. He looked at Jingli getting out of the car and said, "If you want to see candy, call me at any time and bring Xixi over to play."
"Okay." Jingli smiled and hugged Xixi, "Xixi, say goodbye to her brother and sister."
"Goodbye brother and sister." Xixi was a little tired after playing for a day. She lay on Jingli's shoulder and said goodbye to the two.
Jing Li said goodbye to Su Zhen alone, and hugged Xixi and turned around and walked towards the community.
Xixi lay on her shoulder and when she entered the community gate, she suddenly said to her: "Aunt, Xixi likes Brother Qi Ran."
"Yeah." Jing Li responded with a smile, "Brother Qi Ran is so nice, right?"
"Does your aunt like Brother Qi Ran?"
