Chapter 169 I hope he can get rid of the knot in his heart that has been there for many years
11am, at the flower shop beside Huaxi River.
There are only Fu Nanxi and Lin Xiaoling in the store today, and Li Shuang is taking a day off.
When Fu Nanxi looked up, she saw Shi Mingjun walking into the store in casual clothes.
She turned her head and glanced at Lin Xiaoling beside her, "Is your boyfriend here?"
She had felt that something was not right between Shi Mingjun and Lin Xiaoling, and when she asked this morning she found out that the two were already boyfriend and girlfriend.
Lin Xiaoling walked up to Shi Mingjun with a smile on her face, "Why are you here so early?"
"Of course I have to eat earlier when I'm with my girlfriend."
After saying that, Shi Mingjun turned around and greeted Fu Nanxi, then continued to flirt with Lin Xiaoling.
Looking at the two people in the distance, Fu Nanxi shook his head, "Men and women in love really stick together all the time."
At noon, the two went out to eat together. Before leaving, Lin Xiaoling told Fu Nanxi that he would bring her food back as soon as possible.
Fu Nanxi looked at the two of them with a smile and told them not to rush and just have a good date.
After the two left, a customer came to the flower shop and bought two pots of snake plants.
Fu Nanxi had just seen off the guests when she received a call from her grandmother. Her grandmother said that she had to go back to Yuncheng early for something and could not wait for her to come back, so she asked her and Ji Yanbei to go to Yuncheng to play next time.
She was about to close the store and go to the airport to see her grandmother off, but her grandmother told her on the phone that her brother was accompanying her at the airport and the plane was about to take off, so she didn't need to go.
After hanging up the phone, she sat on the chair behind the cashier counter, staring into the distance in a daze.
Grandma is getting older, and if she has the chance, she will go back to Yuncheng to see her often.
It wasn't until the door was pushed open from the outside that she came to her senses. She looked up and saw that it was the aunt who bought lilies that day. She walked into the store carrying a thermos bucket in her hand.
She stood up and took the initiative to greet her. "Hello, Auntie."
The woman walked up to the cashier with a thermos bucket, "You're the only one."
"Oh, my colleague went on a date with her boyfriend and will be back after dinner."
The woman opened the lid of the thermos bucket and asked, "You haven't eaten yet?"
"I haven't eaten yet. They will bring it to me later."
"This is the yam, mushroom and chicken soup I made. It's delicious and nutritious. You should try it."
After saying that, she served Fu Nanxi a bowl.
"No, Auntie, my friend will bring me food later."
Seeing that she was a little hesitant, the woman walked to the water dispenser, took a disposable paper cup, scooped two spoonfuls, and drank it herself.
After drinking, she showed the empty paper cup to Fu Nanxi and said, "Don't worry, it's safe. I made too much at noon and couldn't finish it."
Seeing her aunt looking at her expectantly, she took the small bowl, picked up the spoon and took a sip. The temperature was just right and the taste lingered on her lips and teeth.
"It's delicious, thank you auntie."
The woman looked at her with a smile on her lips. "As long as it tastes good, you're welcome."
Fu Nanxi was drinking soup seriously from a small bowl when the door was pushed open from the outside and a man in a hand-tailored black suit walked into the store.
When he saw another person in the store, he was stunned for a moment, and then a look of displeasure immediately appeared between his brows.
Seeing Ji Yanbei coming, Fu Nanxi stopped drinking soup and looked at him, "Didn't you say that there was something important at the company? Why are you here?"
The man walked up to her and said, "I'll have lunch with you."
After saying that, he turned to look at the woman in front of him and said, "Please leave the flower shop immediately and don't disturb my wife."
Fu Nanxi pulled the sleeve of Ji Yanbei's suit and said, "Auntie is a customer of the flower shop. She was kind enough to give me some soup today. Please be more polite when you speak."
The man patted her hands and turned to look at the woman opposite.
"Why don't you hurry up and let me ask you to leave?"
He looked at the soup on the table with disgust, "Take your things away and don't show up in front of us again."
Hearing her son's emotionless words, the woman reached out and grabbed his arm, "Ayan, don't chase me away."
The man shook her hand away and said, "Don't touch me."
Seeing this situation, Fu Nanxi finally realized that this aunt turned out to be Ji Yanbei's mother Yan Fei.
Seeing Yan Fei standing there with a sad face and big tears rolling down, Fu Nanxi reached out and held the man's hand. She could feel the hostility and irritability in him.
She also knew about what happened between the mother and son, and she knew that this was a knot in the man's heart.
This knot is like a thorn in a man's heart. You can't just let it stay there forever. You have to pull it out.
"Hubby, please have a good chat with your aunt."
The man looked down at her. "She and I have nothing to talk about."
"Is there anything to talk about? You'll know after you talk. Just talk to your aunt calmly. Maybe you all had misunderstandings before. Please, husband."
Looking at his wife's expectant face, the man stood there in silence.
Seeing that he had no objection, Fu Nanxi seized the opportunity to speak, "The coffee shop next door is quiet and comfortable. Honey, you and Auntie should go over there and have a good chat."
After saying that, she pushed the man out and turned to look at Yan Fei. Before the man left, she specifically instructed him, "You must have a good chat and don't lose your temper with your mother."
She was at the door of the flower shop and saw two people sitting by the window from afar, so she turned around and went back to the flower shop.
This is the time for mother and son to be alone. The person who tied the bell must untie it. If Ji Yanbei wants to resolve the knot in his heart, he still has to rely mainly on his mother.
She was drinking soup while waiting for them in the flower shop. She sent a message to Lin Xiaoling, telling her not to pack the food and that she would go out to eat with Ji Yanbei later.
They waited until Shi Mingjun and Lin Xiaoling came back and Shi Mingjun left the flower shop before the mother and son returned to the flower shop from the coffee shop.
The man still had no expression on his face, but most of his irritability and hostility had dissipated.
Yan Fei looked at Fu Nanxi with gratitude, "Nanxi, thank you for giving me the opportunity to chat with him for so long."
Fu Nanxi had a faint smile on her face, "Auntie, you're welcome."
The man walked over, held his wife's hand, and looked at his mother across from him, "You can go now!"
When Yan Fei heard her son's words, she hurriedly greeted a few people and turned to leave the flower shop.
Feeling the sweat on the man's palms, the woman took out a wet towel to wipe the sweat off his palms, "Honey, how was your chat with Auntie?"
The man let her wipe his hands and looked down into her eyes, "What do you want us to do."
The woman blurted out, "Of course I hope you guys can reconcile, and I hope you can get rid of that thorn in your heart."
On second thought, the knot in my heart that has been there for so many years cannot be resolved overnight.
She changed her tone and said, "This is just my suggestion. You can make your own decision."
The man snorted arrogantly, "Are you sure this is just a suggestion, not an order?"
The woman said sincerely, "Of course I am giving you advice. You have been through it all by yourself. I cannot empathize with you, and I cannot make decisions for you. In the end, I have to listen to your own opinion."
The man curled his lips and stretched out his hand to pinch her fair cheek. "You are really my good wife. Your husband is hungry. Go eat with your husband."
The woman nodded, "Okay"
The two held hands and left the bank of Huaxi River together.
