Curved by the hero's white moonlight

Chapter 23

Meng Xia opened the door, and Ning Qingwan stood by the door, her back straightened, her chin slightly raised, revealing her delicate face under the brim of her hat, with a look of weariness hard to hide between her brows and eyes.

Looking at Meng Xia who landed on Xia Nianzhi behind her, Ning Qingwan smiled politely and said, "Hello, Auntie, I brought you a present." Her voice was a little tired and hoarse than usual.

Just hearing this voice made Meng Xia's heart tremble, and Ning Qingwan seemed very tired.

Xia Nianzhi took the gift box from Ning Qingwan's hands in a flattered manner, "Come here, why don't you bring any presents?" He said, glaring at Meng Xia who was blocking the door, and quickly beckoned Ning Qingwan to come in and sit down.

Mom doesn't love me anymore!Meng Xia blinked and stared dumbfounded at Xia Nianzhi's extraordinary hospitality to Ning Qingwan. She glanced at the gift box in Xia Nianzhi's hand, and Ning Qingwan actually prepared a gift in such a short time...

As if knowing Meng Xia's doubts, when Ning Qingwan walked past her, she leaned slightly to her ear and whispered: "It's a gift from the program team, borrowing flowers to present Buddha." Staring into her eyes, she asked again, "Little rabbit, what are you doing?" Are you crying again?"

Meng Xia rubbed her eyes, then firmly denied: "Well, no, it was blown by the wind." She turned and closed the door.

Could her eyes be reddened by the wind in the house? Ning Qingwan pursed her thin lips, not exposing her clumsy lies.

"My baby is always said to look a bit like you, but after all, a star is a star, and you look better." Xia Nianzhi praised while placing the gift box by the TV table.

Ning Qingwan smiled and said, "Meng Xia is also pretty."

All mothers like to be praised for their children. Xia Nianzhi smiled and asked curiously, "How did you make friends?"

"It's because of the hug." Before Ning Qingwan could answer, Meng Xia rushed to answer.

Ning Qing glanced at Meng Xia thoughtfully, remembering the first time the little girl asked her "Are you in love?", the corners of her lips curled up into a faint smile.

Seeing Ning Qingwan's half-smile, Meng Xia couldn't lift her head in shame, she was too stupid at that time.

"Oh that's it." Xia Nianzhi had no doubts about him, and beckoned Ning Qingwan to sit down on the sofa, "Baby, pour your husband a glass of water, I'll cook first, and I'll start dinner with two dishes left." Xia Nianzhi ordered.

Hearing Xia Nianzhi's words, Ning Qingwan sat on the sofa and raised her eyebrows to look at Meng Xia.

Looking at Shang Ning Qingwan with a slightly teasing look, Meng Xia's sense of shame soared when she thought of uttering her nickname and "your husband" from her mother's mouth. It prints three rooms and two halls.

Meng Xia hurriedly looked away, walked into the kitchen and poured Ning Qingwan a glass of water, and poked Xia Nianzhi by the way, "Mom, don't call me baby, and don't say...it's my husband."

Xia Nianzhi was cooking, glanced at her, and said teasingly: "Mom has always called you that, besides, isn't it you who call me 'My Wanwan Husband' and 'My Husband' every day?"

"..." Meng Xia wanted to cry without tears, so she took a peek at Ning Qingwan, who looked at the phone calmly as if she hadn't heard it, she was relieved, and begged coquettishly, "It's too embarrassing Oh, mom~ don't call me that."

Xia Nianzhi originally wanted Meng Xia not to think about those unhappy things, so he deliberately said this to tease his daughter, seeing that Meng Xia was so ashamed, Xia Nianzhi stopped teasing her, and urged: "Okay, quickly bring the water Go to your idol."

"Sister, were you downstairs early in the morning?" Meng Xia handed the water glass to Ning Qingwan, asking out her doubts.

Ning Qingwan took the water glass, and said frankly: "I came here directly after getting off the plane, and I only remembered to ask you if you have time when I got downstairs."

Meng Xia's heart was warm, and she felt sorry for Ning Qingwan who was so tired and busy. She felt that Ning Qingwan was very kind to her, but when she thought of the dream at night, she felt timid, and she said "Why are you so kind to me?" Can't even ask.

She suppressed the ripples in her heart, but her words turned into another sentence, "Sister, are you particularly afraid of eating alone?"

Ning Qingwan took a sip of water, but almost didn't spit it out. The little girl didn't know how to tease her elm head. She smiled, bent the corners of her eyes, and said slyly: "Yeah, so I will trouble you often in the future." Come eat with me, okay?"

Meng Xia pursed her lips, hesitating in her heart, saying that it was a lie that she didn't want to have more contact with Ning Qingwan, but every time she came into contact with her, her heart couldn't stop jumping to her, and she was afraid that if she didn't answer, it would be broken How to deal with yourself.

"Ok?"

"Okay." Meng Xia bit her lip, annoyed, Ning Qingwan's monosyllable was like a switch, as long as she pressed it, she would not refuse.

There was a smile on Ning Qingwan's lips, and she pretended to be wronged: "Am I being too difficult? Actually, you don't want to?"

"No, I'm willing." Meng Xia hurriedly explained, and when she raised her eyes, they bumped into smiling pupils, realizing that Ning Qingwan was deliberately teasing her again, she looked away in embarrassment and bowed her head in silence.

"Xia Xia, come serve the dishes." Xia Nianzhi called her from the kitchen.

Meng Xia hurriedly approached the kitchen as if she had been granted an amnesty, Ning Qingwan stared at her back for a while, curled her lips into a silent smile, and the smile reached her eyes.

Xia Nianzhi cooked five dishes and one soup, which was enough for three people. Ning Qingwan's etiquette at the dinner table was very good, and she ate slowly. When she saw Xia Nianzhi's expectant eyes, she smiled and sincerely praised: "Auntie's cooking is delicious."

"Eat more if it tastes good, there's still in the pot." Xia Nianzhi likes to hear others praise the most, and happily picks up vegetables for Ning Qingwan, "You're too skinny, eat more."

Ning Qingwan looked at the dishes in the bowl and rolled her eyes. Ms. Fan would never pick up dishes for her.

Thinking of Ning Qingwan's appetite, Meng Xia reminded her in a low voice, "Mom, celebrities must keep in shape."

Only then did Xia Nianzhi withdraw his hand and sighed, "It's not easy to be a celebrity." Thinking of celebrities, Xia Nianzhi asked carefully, "Xiao Wan, do you know about the 'fortunate to meet you' program? ah?"

"Cough—" Meng Xia choked on drinking water, but Xia Nianzhi's eyes warned her when she wanted to speak. She pursed her lips and did not dare to speak.

She didn't tell Xia Nianzhi that Ji Tong's evil deeds actually stemmed from his obsession with Ning Qingwan. She vaguely guessed that Xia Nianzhi might want to seek Ning Qingwan's help.

Obviously she thought so at first, but the more she got along, the more afraid she would trouble Ning Qingwan.

Ning Qingwan took a panoramic view of the silent communication between the mother and daughter without looking at it. She couldn't figure out what the purpose of Xia Nianzhi's questioning this show was, but it must have something to do with Meng Xia.

Li Li had already pushed back the invitation to the show, and she had an intuition that the result could not be said directly.

After thinking for a moment, Ning Qingwan said ambiguously: "I know, I received an invitation from the program group some time ago."

Xia Nianzhi's eyes lit up. It was the first time Ning Qingwan came to eat at home, and she wanted to ask someone for help. She hesitated and didn't know how to speak.

"Auntie, why did you suddenly ask about this program?" Ning Qingwan asked casually, but actually encouraged Xia Nianzhi to speak.

"Oh, that's right. Xia Xia's father took the initiative to agree to the program group's invitation. I am a little worried that she, a college student who has not graduated, will participate in this kind of program." Xia Nianzhi smiled and hesitated, "So Auntie misses you If you also participate in the recording of the program, help me take care of her more."

Ning Qingwan was stunned. If she remembered correctly, the show was a love observation show.Ning Qingwan lowered her long eyelashes and lowered her eyes. The little rabbit didn't seem to be planning to tell her about it.

"Okay, don't worry, auntie." When she raised her eyes again, Ning Qingwan restrained her emotions and said calmly.

Xia Nianzhi was really relieved and breathed a sigh of relief, and then he did not forget to tell Meng Xia to listen to Ning Qingwan obediently during the recording of the program.

Meng Xia repeatedly responded "Yes", but she didn't know if it was an illusion, she sensitively noticed that Ning Qingwan was much colder than before, did she think she was too troublesome, Meng Xia poked the rice in the bowl, but couldn't taste it.

After the meal, Xia Nianzhi washed the dishes and said he was going to visit Meng Yuanxiu's company. Before he left, he took his cosmetic bag for Ning Qingwan to sign, and said with a smile, "I'm your mother's fan~ the supporting actress you played The acting is really good."

Ning Qingwan said modestly: "Auntie, I'm overwhelmed." She signed the cosmetic bag seriously.

After Xia Nianzhi left, Meng Xia and Ning Qingwan nestled on the sofa together. There was a fruit platter on the tea table, but Ning Qingwan hardly moved.

"What's wrong with your hand?" Ning Qingwan asked quietly, she noticed it while eating, but she didn't ask in front of Xia Nianzhi.

"I accidentally got cut by a knife." Meng Xia subconsciously curled up her hands to cover the Band-Aid on her fingers.

Ning Qingwan raised her eyebrows watching her small movements, "So why are you crying? Crying because of a broken hand? Or," she paused and boldly guessed, "Crying because you want to participate in that show?"

The guess was accurate, and the tone of the speech was very serious like a teacher asking a student a question.Meng Xia confessed, "There are all..."

"Then why didn't you tell me?" Ning Qingwan asked hesitantly.

Meng Xia choked her throat and explained: "I'm afraid to trouble you." My sister is so fierce.

Ning Qingwan smiled lightly: "When you first came to me, you weren't afraid to bother me."

Meng Xia was speechless. It was the first time Ning Qingwan spoke to her in such a tone. Meng Xia felt uneasy. She bit her lip and tugged at the corner of Ning Qingwan's clothes.

Seeing Meng Xia's aggrieved and sad look, Ning Qingwan subconsciously softened her heart, sighed, still a little annoyed at her, if Xia Nianzhi hadn't brought it up, would this rabbit be going on the show to fall in love with others.

Ning Qingwan only softened her tone and said, "If you're afraid of troubling me, you shouldn't have looked for me from the beginning."

These words had another meaning in Meng Xia's ears, Meng Xia's face turned pale, his eyes dimmed, and he said in a low voice, "I'm sorry."

"Fool." Ning Qingwan laughed angrily, "Since I promised to help you, don't be afraid to trouble me."

Meng Xia blinked, and her eyes lit up again. Only then did she understand the meaning of what Ning Qingwan said, and the corners of her lips raised uncontrollably, "I see, sister, I won't hide it from you next time."

Ning Qingwan stretched out her hand and flicked her forehead, and when Meng Xia covered the flicked place and looked over with watery eyes, she felt that the anger had really subsided.

"Sister, do you want to eat grapes?" Meng Xia asked flatteringly, but Ning Qingwan couldn't get a response. She tilted her head and saw that she was typing on her mobile phone, and she only nodded slightly.

Meng Xia picked up a grape and handed it to Ning Qingwan's mouth, but Ning Qingwan didn't take it, and took advantage of the opportunity to hold the grape in her hand, gently knocking her white teeth against her fingertips, and then squeezed the smooth tip of her tongue between her two fingers. The grapes entered the mouth, and a tingling sensation like electricity spread from the fingertips in an instant.

Ning Qingwan typed and sent the message as if she had touched it by accident. Meng Xia withdrew her hand like an electric shock, her face was full of heat. In order to cover up her panic, she pretended to be calm and stuffed a grape into herself. mouth.

When her lips touched her fingers, the image of Ning Qingwan eating grapes just now appeared in her mind, and Meng Xia felt her face was going to burn and her heart was beating wildly.

When the little rabbit was blushing and shy, Ning Qingwan licked his lips, thinking that it would be better to change his hands to lips next time.

Ning Qingwan sent Mo Li a WeChat message, asking her to take down the program "Fortunate to Met You". Mo Li said that his ancestors were difficult to serve. Although he kept complaining, but the efficiency was very high, he replied after a while that he had already taken it down. , and issued a list of program guests.

Ji Tong's name came into view on the screenshot of the form, and Ning Qingwan raised her eyebrows, her eyes were cold and gloomy, like frost wrapped in the cold winter and the twelfth lunar month, and she cursed in her heart: Ning Jingjue's work efficiency is really getting worse and worse. It will give Ji Tong time to record the show.

After handing out the form, Mo Li reminded: "Don't forget that you will be singing at the Summer Music Festival tonight. You will be admitted at [-]:[-] p.m., and at [-]:[-] p.m., I will go to your house with Xu'er and the stylist."

Ning Qingwan replied: "Okay." She added truthfully, "I forgot."

Mo Li sent "angry.jpg" and reminded her: "So no matter where you are now, go home and get ready."

Ning Qingwan turned off the phone and looked sideways at the blushing Meng Xia, asking her, "Would you like to watch me sing~"

"Ah?" Meng Xia was stunned for two seconds, remembering that Mosquito said that Ning Qingwan was invited to sing at this year's Summer Music Festival in City C, but they didn't get a ticket, and she regretted it for a long time at that time, she asked cautiously, "Can I go?"

Ning Qingwan smiled and asked her back, "Do you want to go?"

Meng Xia's eyes were dotted with starlight, and she nodded.
