Translator: 549690339

Xia Anlan did not say anything as he was not thinking about anything else.

They stayed at home until lunch, but it wasnt as lively. The atmosphere at the table was a little gloomy, and su ningmei couldnt sit still. She kept thinking about her mother.

After lunch, Xia Anlan also planned to leave.I should go too. This trip to the capital is a temporary official business. I have to hurry back to sea city. If I dont go back soon, it will be a mess.

The old Madam pretended to have suddenly recalled something and said,By the way, Anlan, you came here on a private plane, right? youre going back too, right?

Xia Anlan nodded.Yes, the Secretary has already made the arrangements.

Thats great. Do me a favor and take Meimei back. Shes going back to Sucheng. Itll be much easier to get back to Sucheng if you take her to Sea city.

Su ningmei waved her hands.Ah, no need, no need. Im just going back to visit my mom. Ill just take the plane to Sucheng. Theres no need to transfer to Sea city. Its too troublesome.

The old Madam did not even ask for her sons opinion and said,Whats so troublesome about that? its much more convenient than waiting for the plane and rus.h.i.+ng on your own. Once you and an LAN reach Sea city, let him arrange a car to send you back. Thats too convenient.

Nie qiuping nodded.I think thats a good idea, mom. You Yis subordinate called just now and said that the earliest flight to feisu city will take off at six in the afternoon. You cant wait that long.

Nie qiupings words moved su ningmei, but she was still hesitating because she felt extremely uncomfortable at the thought of being alone with Xia Anlan.

But ... This will delay Mayor Xias work.

Theres no need to delay, grandma Jian said.Its just on the way. Its much faster than waiting for a flight.

Xia Anlan saw that his family had already made the decision for him. He said,Were all friends, no need to be so polite.

Thats right. Were all friends. Mom said that sister Mei used to call him big brother just like me when we were young. Why are we so distant now?

Xia Anlan glanced at nie qiuping. How could he not know what they were thinking? they were just trying to create an opportunity for him and nie qiuping to get along.

Forget it, let them be.

If it wasnt for his family, he wouldnt have bothered to worry about him.

Xia Anlan looked at the time and said to su ningmei,Lets go,he said.

Alright, he said.

The family sent them off, and the old Madam said,Anlan, you must take good care of Meimei.

Xia Anlan nodded.Mm, I know. Dont worry.

The two of them walked into the elevator, and the door slowly closed. There were only the two of them in the enclosed s.p.a.ce. Su ningmei gulped, and her feet involuntarily moved to the side.

Being alone with Xia Anlan, su ningmei felt that her breathing was not smooth.

Neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere was too awkward. Su ningmei hesitated and said,That ... Thank you.

Xia Anlan smiled.Youre too kind. I ... Really have a deep memory of the meal you made last time. This is a thank you gift for cooking for me.

He said it so seriously, as if he was really grateful for the meal she made last time, which made her particularly embarra.s.sed. She blushed and said,I ... I ...

The elevator arrived with a ding.

Were here, Xia Anlan said.Lets go. Im really grateful for your meal. Dont overthink it.

Su ningmeis legs went soft. Your sister, you said it so deliberately, and you call it not overthinking?
