Chapter 132 You've forgotten?
Chapter 132 You've forgotten?
Ma Junjie took out his phone and looked at it.
Upon checking the name in the notes, it turned out to be Carina Lau.
Ma Junjie was a little puzzled. It was the weekend, so why was Carina Lau calling him?
At this moment, Fat Tiger shouted from the side,
"Brother Jie, answer the phone!"
"Brother Jie, which beautiful lady is looking for you?"
Ma Junjie glanced at Pang Hu, and Pang Hu immediately fell silent.
Ma Junjie took his phone and walked outside the store before answering the call.
As soon as the call connected, Carina Lau on the other end said,
"Ah Jie, where are you?"
"I...I have some things to take care of outside!" Ma Junjie replied.
Upon hearing this, Carina Lau's tone became serious.
"Ah Jie, have you forgotten what we're supposed to do today?"
"What...what are you doing?" Ma Junjie had indeed forgotten.
"Hmph, you!" Carina Lau said, seemingly speechless and somewhat annoyed.
"Ah Jie, let's learn to drive!"
"You forgot? I told you I'd let you learn to drive with me this weekend!"
Ma Junjie's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly remembered...
"Sister Liu, I'm so sorry, I really forgot today!"
"I……"
Carina Lau, somewhat exasperated, interrupted Ma Junjie.
"Alright, alright, when will you be back? I'll come pick you up from the factory!"
"I... about an hour!"
"Okay, see you in an hour!"
After saying that, Carina Lau immediately hung up the phone.
Ma Junjie stared at his phone, which had been hung up on, and remained silent for a moment.
After a while, he looked up at the alleyway in the distance.
That alley was dark, secluded, and deserted.
He sighed and said to himself,
"Forget it, Hu Ling'er is Hu Ling'er, she will never be Ma Xiaofang!"
"Ha, Ma Junjie, stop playing the nice guy, let's go!"
At this moment, Gian came out and called from behind.
"Brother Jie, what's wrong? Are you alright?"
Ma Junjie turned his head and said.
"Gian, let's go back!"
"Huh?" Fat Tiger was taken aback, then burst into laughter.
"Okay, okay!"
"Brother Jie, you've finally come to your senses!"
"That's more like it. We're not related, so why should we meddle?"
Ma Junjie ignored Pang Hu and went into the store, then went to the living room.
Grandma Wang and Sister Guihua are still eating.
Ma Junjie greeted him.
"Grandma, Sister Guihua, Little Fatty and I are getting ready to go back!"
Thank you so much for today!
Grandma Wang smiled, then slowly stood up.
Looking at Ma Junjie, he said,
"Ah Jie, meeting you is fate!"
"I'll definitely come back more often when I have time!"
"This old woman has no sons or grandsons, but I really like you!"
Ma Junjie was a little embarrassed for a moment, then smiled.
"Okay, Grandma, looking at you reminds me of my own grandma. She was so kind and capable!"
Upon hearing this, Grandma Wang came over and took Ma Junjie's hand.
I patted it gently.
"Ah Jie, it's a deal then..."
"You must come see me next time!"
"Next time you come, I'll prepare a sumptuous meal for you!"
Ma Junjie was deeply moved.
Two strangers who met by chance could instantly develop a chemistry.
They each felt a sense of regret for not having met sooner.
In this foreign land, Ma Junjie suddenly felt the warmth of family affection.
After exchanging a few more pleasantries, Grandma Wang turned to Sister Guihua and said,
"Guihua, they're leaving. Do you have anything to say?"
Sister Guihua tilted her head back and took a big gulp of wine, saying with a disdainful look,
"Fine, let them go. What else is there to say?"
"But Ah Jie, you must remember, a man's word is his bond. Next time, you absolutely must come!"
After saying that, Sister Guihua took another big gulp of wine.
Fat Tiger listened with a grin.
He says,
"Grandma Wang, Sister Guihua, can I come to eat with you next time?"
Grandma Wang and Sister Guihua both looked at Fatty Tiger with disdain.
Grandma Wang joked.
"Little Fatty, if you eat any more, you'll become a big fatso!"
"People who are fat look particularly unattractive. You can come if you want!"
Upon hearing this, Fat Tiger pouted and looked dejected.
At this moment, Ma Junjie had already turned around and shouted,
"Gian, let's go!"
Fat Tiger responded with a "hmm".
"Okay, Brother Jie, I'm coming!"
As the two stepped outside, Ma Junjie couldn't help but glance at the alleyway once more.
Fat Tiger noticed Ma Junjie's expression and said,
"Brother Jie, stop watching!"
"I remember my teacher saying something like this when I was in school: Happy families are all alike; every unhappy family is unhappy in its own way!"
"Brother Jie, that's her fate. We don't need to interfere too much!"
Ma Junjie didn't say anything, but started walking forward.
The two walked out of the village and onto the main road outside.
Fat Tiger asked,
"Brother Jie, how about we take the bus back?"
"However, it might take a little while!"
Ma Junjie no longer believed Pang Hu's promises of "just a little while" or "right away".
He blurted out,
"Fat Tiger, let's take a motorcycle taxi!"
"I have urgent business to attend to back home!"
Gian is a little worried.
"But Brother Jie, it's so far...it'll probably cost at least 30 yuan!"
Upon hearing this, Ma Junjie paused for a moment.
Then he waved his hand.
"30 is 30, we don't take motorcycle taxis every day!"
After saying that, Ma Junjie saw two motorcycle taxis parked next to the bus stop not far away.
Ma Junjie was about to reach out and beckon them over.
Fat Tiger glanced at him, patted Ma Junjie, and stopped him.
"Brother Jie, let me do it!"
After saying that, Fat Tiger shouted at the motorcycle taxi driver.
"Hitchhiking! I'm here to hitch a ride!"
With a "whoosh," a motorcycle taxi driver reacted quickly and rushed over.
"Where are the two handsome guys headed?" the driver asked.
Fat Tiger spoke to the motorcycle taxi driver in slightly accented Cantonese.
In the end, they even managed to bargain down the price by 5 yuan, and the deal was settled at 25 yuan.
The two got on the motorcycle, and the driver sped away, kicking up layers of dust on the ground.
More than forty minutes later, the motorcycle stopped in front of Xingda Toy Factory.
Ma Junjie took out his money to pay the fare, giving the driver 30 yuan.
The driver returned 5 yuan to Ma Junjie.
After the driver drove off, Fat Tiger came up and laughed.
"Hey Jay, how about it? I saved you another 5 yuan!"
Ma Junjie smiled.
"Hehe, Fat Tiger, your Cantonese was pretty good just now!"
"Here, take this five yuan you saved, and I'll buy you a watermelon!"
Upon hearing this, Fat Tiger immediately shook his head and waved his hands.
Without allowing any room for discussion, Ma Junjie shoved it directly into Pang Hu's hand.
Fat Tiger feigned reluctance, refusing with a grin on his face.
My hand involuntarily lowered itself.
He grinned.
"Brother Jie, this...this is so embarrassing!"
"Hey Jay, how about I use these 5 yuan to buy a big watermelon, and we can split it half?"
"Brother Jie, look, it's over there, wait for me a moment..."
After saying that, Fat Tiger took the money and ran towards the food stalls outside the factory.
Seeing Fat Tiger's retreating figure, Ma Junjie laughed.
A casual glance to the side...
Ma Junjie saw a red car drive up.
The car slowly pulled up beside Ma Junjie.
Ma Junjie's smile faded, and he opened the car door and got in.
Soon, the car started moving again and drove off quickly.
Fat Tiger, grinning, grabbed the watermelon and ran to the front gate.
Looking left and right,
"Huh? Where's Brother Jie?"
Looking ahead again, I saw the taillights of a red car slowly disappearing from sight...
