Chapter 21 Overnight Ning Yingying sat nearby and watched, and couldn't help but reach out and gently poke Liu Hong's lower back, trying to remind her and Ning Sheng to restrain themselves.
"mom……"
She called Liu Hong in a low voice, but Liu Hong pressed her hand down as if she hadn't heard.
"Xiao Pei is very capable. He is so young and already has his own business."
Ning Sheng smiled and touched his chin: "You are young and promising."
Pei Shiyan raised his lips and said modestly: "That's ridiculous."
Ning Yingying sighed in despair.
Not only is he young and promising, he directly took over the Pei family!
Still a world-famous elite! "Mom, it's getting late. Is it time to eat?"
Seeing that the topic was about to turn to Pei Shiyan's relationship issues, Ning Yingying finally couldn't help it and interrupted the farce.
Liu Hong sighed after realizing it: "Yes, I almost forgot. Lao Ning, come in with me and give me a hand, so that the children can have a good chat."
Watching Ning Sheng and Liu Hong get up and walk towards the kitchen at the same time.
Pei Shiyan suddenly stood up from the sofa, took off his suit jacket, and rolled up the cuffs of his white shirt with one hand.
Ning Yingying's eyes swept over the forearm, which was covered with a thin layer of muscles and had smooth lines.
Before she knew what Pei Shiyan wanted to do, she heard him say, "Uncle and aunt, let me help. Is there anything you need me to do?"
He took the initiative to ask for help, and the smiles on Liu Hong and Ning Sheng's faces became even bigger.
Liu Hong shook her head and blocked the person outside the kitchen.
"No, just sit with Yingying. Lao Ning and I will be quick."
After saying that, he closed the kitchen door directly.
Pei Shiyan pondered for a moment, but had no choice but to turn around and walk back to the sofa.
However, he picked up the water glass and took a cup of hot water and placed it in front of Ning Yingying.
The latter was still dazed. When he saw the water glass that suddenly appeared in front of him, he was startled for a moment, then looked up at Pei Shiyan.
"Thank you, but how do you know I'm thirsty?"
The latter's eyes only stayed on her for a moment, and then quickly looked away.
"You've been puckering your lips."
When he was chatting with Ning Sheng and Liu Hong just now, Ning Yingying kept looking at him nervously.
The originally light-colored lips also showed some obvious blood color due to her frequent actions.
Holding the warm water cup in both hands, Ning Yingying lowered her head and took a sip of hot water to moisten her throat.
But a hint of surprise quietly crept into my heart, like a buoy floating on the lake that jumped slightly due to a breeze.
"My parents are more enthusiastic. If you...if you mind, you can tell me and I will find a way to make them restrain themselves."
There was silence for a long time, and finally Ning Yingying took the initiative to break the silence.
She looked at Pei Shiyan, whose long legs were crossed in front of her, and said seriously.
Pei Shiyan just responded in a low tone: "This is good."
He didn't lie, he really felt that Ning Yingying's family living environment was very good.
Compared with the overwhelming atmosphere in Pei's family, he still prefers a family with such a warm atmosphere.
"Really?"
Ning Yingying was stunned for a moment, obviously not believing it, but after looking at Pei Shiyan and seeing the relaxation and comfort in his eyes, she gradually believed his words.
A smile broke out on her lips and she noticed the look Pei Shiyan cast on her.
Ning Yingying lowered her head and raised the water glass to cover up the raised corners of her lips by drinking water.
"As long as you like it."
Because I didn't know beforehand that Pei Shiyan would come.
So Ning Sheng and Liu Hong only bought some dishes that Ning Yingying liked to the dinner table, Liu Hong stood up and gave Pei Shiyan more supper, and sighed: "If I had known that you would come back today, Xiao Pei, I should have bought more other dishes. Try it. If you don't like it, auntie, go to the kitchen. I’ll make you something to suit your taste.”
When Liu Hong said this, Ning Yingying had just picked up a golden shrimp.
She paused slightly when she heard this, turned a corner in mid-air, and finally placed it in Pei Shiyan's bowl.
Ning Yingying avoided Liu Hong and looked at her smiling eyes and Ning Sheng's inquiring gaze, and lowered her voice and said, "This dish is quite delicious. Do you want to try it?"
Seeing that he didn't move his chopsticks, Ning Yingying hesitated, thinking that he had mysophobia, so she moved closer and explained in a low voice: "I haven't used chopsticks yet."
Pei Shiyan recovered from his brief memories and shook his head when he heard this: "It's not because of this."
He's just not used to it.
After all, this was the first time someone sat next to him and carefully served him food.
In the past, everyone would just mind their own business and let the servants take care of them. No matter how close they were, they could only pour a glass of water for each other.
The golden shrimp is delicious in your mouth, with a crispy outer shell and tender meat inside.
Coupled with Liu Hong's unique sauce, the deliciousness of the shrimp is enhanced to the extreme.
The Ning family didn't have many rules when eating. At the dinner table, Ning Sheng and Liu Hong talked about some embarrassing things about Ning Yingying's childhood from time to time, which not only aroused her embarrassment but also made Pei Shiyan couldn't help but chuckle a few times.
"Xiao Pei, you and Yingying met after work, right?"
Pei Shiyan responded and looked at Ning Yingying beside him with his ink-washed eyes. Ning Yingying's serious eating figure was reflected in his dark eyes.
"Yes, Yingying, she..."
Thinking of Mr. Pei's evaluation of Ning Yingying, Pei Shiyan's lips curled up slightly.
"Yingying is a very serious and excellent person."
When Ning Yingying, who was cooking rice next to her, heard this, her hand holding the chopsticks tightened slightly, and the tips of her ears hidden behind her hair gradually turned red and hot.
Ning Sheng saw it and nodded with a smile, but also felt a little pity.
"If only you two could have met sooner."
This way she won't meet that scumbag Chen Kang.
The host and guest enjoyed the meal.
When Pei Shiyan stood up and was about to say goodbye, he was stopped by Liu Hong.
"Xiao Pei, it's getting late. It's raining heavily outside and it won't stop for a while."
The four of them looked at the pouring rain at the door. The most embarrassed one was Ning Yingying.
God, did you do this on purpose?
Looking at the weather forecast, it seemed that heavy rain would fall all night. Ning Sheng took over the words at the right time: "It's not appropriate to drive so late. It would be bad if something happens. Anyway, there are many guest rooms at home, otherwise you can stay here." One night?"
Stay overnight?
Neither Ning Yingying nor Pei Shiyan expected this.
The two looked at each other and saw surprise and astonishment in each other's eyes.
Pei Shiyan thought about it for a while, then shook his head and refused.
"It doesn't matter. It's not too late now. My home is not far from here, so I won't bother you anymore."
Night has fallen outside, and the thick ink color coupled with the sound of leaves fluttering when the night wind blows, really has nothing to do with the word "morning".
Liu Hong looked at Pei Shiyan and said disapprovingly: "No, it's already so late. The wind is still strong outside. It looks like it will rain soon. We are worried about you leaving, and Yingying will definitely be worried about you too." of."
"That's it, it's settled. I'll clean up the guest room, and you can live here with peace of mind. We'll have breakfast before leaving tomorrow!"
Unable to resist the good intentions of Ning Sheng and Liu Hong, Pei Shiyan finally stayed.
The guest room that Liu Hong packed up for Pei Shiyan was on the second floor, not far from Ning Yingying.
After cleaning up the room, Liu Hong withdrew, urging Ning Yingying to take people to see how the decoration was.
