Chapter 2118: 2045 The Mercedes-Benz Pig in My Own Vegetable Garden (Monthly Ticket 68500 Bonus Chapter ×137)
Back at Golden Palm, Xie Yiren and Lin Wan chatted and laughed, heading to park.
At the doorway, Zheng Ren got out with Xie Ning. Zheng Ren was thinking about going to dig the baby bok choy; to him it was a task that definitely had to be finished.
Seeing Zheng Ren say nothing, not even a greeting, Xie Ning felt helpless.
This is too awkward.
This is also because Xie Ning understands Zheng Ren, knowing this son-in-law who married into the family is not good with words; otherwise, he would surely think this guy had become full of himself, to the point of not even wanting to deal with his father-in-law.
What the hell is going on!
"Are you usually busy with work?" Xie Ning finally couldn't help but ask, breaking the awkwardness with a simple question.
"Not bad." Zheng Ren stared ahead, not picking up on this extremely ordinary conversation topic.
The elevator arrived; they got in, and Zheng Ren pressed the 17th floor.
Xie Ning felt somewhat relieved, knowing that Zheng Ren definitely hadn't been slacking off going upstairs, but subconsciously pressing the floor of that small room still gave him some sense of meaning.
"You pressed the wrong floor; do you usually go straight home to wash up after work?" Xie Ning said with a smile.
"Oh, it's the 25th floor, I know." Zheng Ren pressed the 25th-floor button again, saying, "I'll get off first in a moment; I need to pick up something."
Seeing his familiar movements, Xie Ning's inner drama increased even more.
Feeling stifled and oppressed. Just thinking about the baby bok choy he had painstakingly grown for years being rooted up by this dull-witted pig made Xie Ning feel an indescribable depression.
The elevator was silent.
Zheng Ren stared intently at the elevator floor numbers, seemingly forgetting that his intimidating father-in-law was still beside him. He silently chanted "baby bok choy, baby bok choy" to keep his emotions steady.
Xie Ning was also speechless.
Want to talk to him? I'm practically rushing to marry my daughter off to him? Nonsense!
This guy is practically a technology dog, completely clueless about how to communicate with me.
It's just that his technical skill is too strong, masking his other weaknesses.
Arriving at the 17th floor, Zheng Ren got out of the elevator on his own.
Hearing footsteps following beside him, he paused and asked, "Uncle Ning, do you have something?"
MD! That's what he said.
Xie Ning rarely gave Zheng Ren a vicious glare.
This is my house, okay? You damn dog, actually asking if I have something—is this reversing host and guest or occupying the magpie's nest?
My baby bok choy is about to be rooted up by a pig, and this pig seems to think the whole vegetable plot belongs to him.
Xie Ning expressed feeling resentful.
He sighed again in his heart, what the hell is going on!
Seeing Xie Ning's unfriendly gaze, Zheng Ren hurriedly avoided looking at his eyes, walked to the door, opened it, changed shoes, and went inside.
"What did you come to get?" Xie Ning asked, full of hostility.
"Baby bok choy."
"..." Xie Ning felt suffocated in his chest, his heart racing.
"I bought the seeds a while ago; they were said to be flowers, but what grew was cabbage." Zheng Ren, unaware of Xie Ning's emotional change, walked inside while saying, "This is my first time growing cabbage; Yiren said she'd stir-fry it tonight."
"..." Xie Ning remained silent.
Over the years, Xie Ning has seen many people; in the business world he is unbeatable, and no matter how slick or deceitful someone is, they can't get any advantage from him.
But he never expected that today, facing Zheng Ren, he would suffer one blow after another.
Zheng Ren's sentence precisely hit Xie Ning's most vulnerable spot, with a critical effect.
Not only was it occupying the magpie's nest, but he even claimed the baby bok choy was something he raised!
What can be tolerated, what cannot!
Zheng Ren began digging up the baby bok choy; it wasn't big, looking thin and small. But the soil was still a bit damp, suggesting Xie Yiren had come back at some point to water it.
He also didn't know whether this kind of baby bok choy was edible, but while digging the cabbage, Zheng Ren sensed that the atmosphere was slightly off.
"Uncle Ning, look, this is the baby bok choy I raised." Zheng Ren said with a chuckle, "Back then I was tricked into buying seeds to grow flowers, but ended up growing cabbage."
Xie Ning watched Zheng Ren clumsily dig up the cabbage, as if seeing a pig that had just broken out of its pen, recklessly rampaging through his own vegetable garden in a Mercedes.
No matter how clumsy, that cabbage was still going to be rooted up.
MD!
Xie Ning felt a slight pain in his chest, holding a mouthful of old blood, gritting his teeth.
"Uncle Ning, it's done." Zheng Ren said with a chuckle, holding the baby bok choy.
Task completed, I didn't forget!
Well, overall today was still quite satisfactory; aside from being a bit awkward when picking someone up, the rest could basically score 80 points.
Zheng Ren gave himself a high score without any basis in his heart.
Xie Ning saw that pig, which had just broken out of its pen, holding his own baby bok choy, swaying past before him, casually greeting him.
And he even claimed it was something he raised!
He actually said he raised it!
He couldn't hit or scold him; Xie Ning's bitterness was known to no one.
He fell silent; the usually dominant Xie Ning at the afternoon negotiation table silently shed two tears of an old father.
He watched Zheng Ren skillfully change shoes and skillfully press the 25th-floor elevator button, not knowing how many times this guy had secretly run to his vegetable garden.
Silently watching Zheng Ren hold the baby bok choy in his hand, Xie Ning clenched his fists.
Creak creak.
"Uncle Ning, maybe we still need you to step in." Zheng Ren, holding the baby bok choy, carrying Xie Yiren's task, feeling satisfied and speaking more smoothly, said, "Su Yun has talked for days with no progress."
Praising himself is useless! Xie Ning thought resentfully.
Only now do I think of sucking up to myself, what was I thinking earlier!
Xie Ning's heart roared and bellowed, lightning flashed and thunder rumbled, dark clouds rolled.
Zheng Ren was completely oblivious, holding a bok choy in his hand, as if grasping the whole world. This is the task Xie Yiren entrusted to him; he must deliver the bok choy into her hands.
Arriving at the 25th floor, the Elevator dinged, and Zheng Ren this time remembered that Xie Ning was still by his side.
"Ning Shu, please."
Xie Ning gave Zheng Ren a vicious glare, then walked out with his head held high.
At the very least, I am still the master of this vegetable plot… but the bok choy is already in Zheng Ren's hands.
Just thinking of this, Xie Ning's elderly father's tears surged like a river.
Sigh…
He walked ahead, letting out a long sigh.
One always goal Clarity, methods simple and effective, Xie Ning also showed a hint of confusion. Although it's said that when a girl grows up she will surely marry, but being with someone like Zheng Ren, a live-in son-in-law, it's really too stifling.
Entering the house, Xie Yiren and Lin Wan were laughing and chatting while tying on their aprons, just about to start cooking.
"Dad, you sit first, I'll cook with Mom." Xie Yiren said with a smile.
Looking at his own bok choy, Xie Ning felt a sourness in his nose, really somewhat reluctant. No matter how reluctant, there was nothing to be done.
All that is in the past; this stupid pig has already run rampant in his own vegetable plot who knows how many times. Now he still holds the bok choy, thinking it's his own crop!
