Chapter 782: Follow Him First
Cheng Xiangdi had actually woken up by now. After packing up his things in the afternoon, he had not planned to sleep but to lie on the bed for a rest. However, the bed prepared by Cheng Yunchuan and others was so comfortable that Cheng Xiangdi fell asleep accidentally. When he woke up, he found that it was already dark just like Cheng Yunchuan.
So he didn't dare to waste time, and immediately got out of bed and went to the bathroom to wash his face. When he was done and walked out of the bathroom, someone knocked on the door.
Cheng Xiangdi opened the door and saw that the person standing outside was Cheng Yunchuan: "You overslept and just woke up now."
"I knew uncle was sleeping, so I came upstairs to see you. Now that you're awake, let's go downstairs and have dinner together."
"Okay, why haven't you guys eaten yet at this hour? Are you waiting for me?"
"You'll have to ask Siqi and Manman about this later. Mubai and I just woke up not long ago. They might feel embarrassed to eat first and have to wait for us to eat together."
After hearing what Cheng Yunchuan said, Cheng Xiangdi felt really embarrassed.
"Uncle is awake, come and sit down to eat, it's so late I guess you must be hungry."
Jiang Mubai had already washed up and went downstairs to sit in the dining room. Manman and the others had already served the food, and now only Cheng Yunchuan and Cheng Xiangdi were left to go downstairs to eat.
"I'm so sorry, everyone. I accidentally overslept and didn't get up until now. I made you miss dinner so late and have to wait for me to eat together."
"It's okay, Uncle Cheng, don't be so polite. We just prepared this meal not long ago. If you don't believe me, look at how fresh these dishes are."
What Wu You said was indeed true, and he didn't say it on purpose for Cheng Xiangdi.
"Yes, Uncle Cheng, you woke up at the right time. How can you be blamed for all this?"
"Okay, we're all family, so stop being so polite. Uncle, don't be polite to them. Let's eat quickly, or else the food, which is not cold to begin with, will get cold if you're so polite."
"Yes, yes, it's best to eat it while it's hot."
So everyone stopped talking and concentrated on eating. Cheng Xiangdi's bowl was never empty at the table, and several people took turns to pick up food for Cheng Xiangdi.
Cheng Xiangdi had been abroad for so long that he had actually already gotten used to the food there, but after all, it was a Chinese stomach and many of the things on the table were his favorites, which immediately aroused his appetite.
When they finished their meal and left the table, Cheng Xiangdi was, as expected, so full that he could hardly walk.
"Wu You's cooking skills seem to be quite refined. Look how full I am."
"No, Uncle Cheng, my cooking skills are still the same as before, but you haven't eaten what I made for a long time."
"Uncle, you must be feeling uncomfortable being so full. Do you want to take some digestive pills to help digest it?"
"No, I'll go for a walk in the yard. Eating so much is really a big burden on my stomach. I'd better go for some exercise so that it will be easier to digest."
Seeing that Cheng Xiangdi wanted to go for a walk in the villa yard to digest his food, no one stopped him and followed him, so the other people at the table didn't eat too much.
Now that they have finished their meal, Cheng Yunchuan, Jiang Mubai and four others are chatting on the sofa.
"Think about when I can go out. I haven't seen him for more than half a month and I miss him a little. Has the little guy gained weight?"
"He does look a lot rounder now than when he was in the hospital. I guess he's more comfortable in a new environment."
"Yes, I originally wanted to bring him out today, but I thought the child is still young and planned to wait a few more days. Unexpectedly, uncle has to have dinner with Mu Bai's father tomorrow. Uncle came back just to see the child and Mu Bai. If I have dinner tomorrow, I have to bring the child with me no matter what. Maybe you will be able to see the child tomorrow."
"Really? That's great. Actually, we are not in a hurry. Sister Mu Bai, your matters are more important, so let's take care of your own business first."
"Okay, then we'll see what happens then."
"If your two families are going to have dinner together tomorrow, Yunchuan will not have time to go to the company to deal with things."
"Well, I was just about to tell you about this. I'll have to trouble you for a while with the company's matters."
"It's okay. I just happen to have nothing to do. Uncle is back now, so you should stay at home and spend more time with him. Don't worry about the company, I'll be watching over you. Uncle has finally come back, so we should take care of him first. Besides, Uncle gave me such an expensive gift today, and I'm not an ignorant person."
"That's good. I'll leave the company's affairs to you. If there's anything you can't handle, just tell me."
"I've been helping you look after the company for so long and nothing happened, so just rest assured."
"it is good."
The few of them chatted for a while, and it was already very late, so it was time for Jiang Mubai to go home. She hadn't seen her child for the whole day, and Jiang Mubai missed her child. She could live in the villa with Cheng Yunchuan, but Jiang Mubai was worried about her child, so she thought about going back to see her.
"Maybe this is what it's like to be a mom. Think about it, he left my side a few days after he was born and never left me again. I've also gotten used to him being around. If I don't look at him before going to bed at night, I probably won't be able to fall asleep."
"It's okay, that's what being a mother does. Am I not taking you home now?"
When Cheng Yunchuan and Jiang Mubai said this, they had just said goodbye to Cheng Xiangdi at the Cheng family villa and were heading towards the Jiang family villa.
"Take me home now. It will be very late when we get there and it will not be safe for you to drive alone. Why don't you stay at home with me today? This way you don't have to come here to pick us up tomorrow."
"No, I still have to drive my uncle to where we're going to have dinner tomorrow. Our two houses aren't far away, so it's okay for me to get up early."
"It's not far, but it will take two hours to go there and back. You'd better not come to our house tomorrow morning. Dad and I will go to the restaurant to wait for you. Then our two families can meet directly at the restaurant."
"It's okay. I'm very skilled at driving and I don't feel tired."
"That won't work either. I'm worried that you'll have an accident if you keep traveling. In order not to make me worry, you'd better listen to me. Let's meet at the entrance of the hotel tomorrow. The Jiang family has so many bodyguards here, so nothing will happen."
Seeing that Jiang Mubai was unwilling to let go of the matter, Cheng Yunchuan finally compromised and agreed: "Okay, then I'll take my uncle to the restaurant to wait for you tomorrow."
"Well, that's good enough. When you get back, go to bed early and stop playing."
"I know. I'm not a child anymore. Why are you still so worried? Is it different now that I'm a mother?"
"Nonsense, I'm just concerned about you! You were busy before your uncle came back and I didn't see you take a good rest. Seeing you so busy, I'm really worried that your body can't take it."
"I'm fine, don't worry. I've been exercising since you were discharged from the hospital. Haven't you noticed that I'm a lot stronger now?"
"Indeed, I couldn't fall asleep even when I used your arm as a pillow because of your muscles. I was wondering why your arm muscles suddenly became so big. It turns out you were exercising."
"Well, I was busy with work and didn't have much time before. Now that Cheng's is slowly getting back on track, I'm not as busy as before, so I thought about putting exercise on the agenda."
