Chapter 18 Is this guy playing him? !
"Hey, brother Tang Mu, doesn't he know that the Tang Mu family is going to hold a banquet?"
The girl sat on the sofa, holding the cake in both hands and eating it carefully. She looked at the lazy man sitting opposite with a wine glass in confusion, "It's an invitation sent by Mr. He Cheng to my mother, but my mother has already made an appointment with a client, so I just gave the invitation to dad, and Shinichi and I will go together."
It was precisely because of this invitation that she came to Tang Muqing's address in Tokyo to see if she could go with him. After all, Tang Muqing was the owner.
Hearing this, Tang Muqing shook his head and was about to say something when he suddenly met Zhu Fu Jingguang's gaze.
Zhu Fu Jingguang walked out of the kitchen carrying the fruit cut into small pieces, with a hint of speechlessness in his eyes, "Mr. Hecheng sent the invitation. I put it on the desk when I left. Didn't you see it?"
Tang Muqing:...
Tang Muqing turned his head and glanced in the direction of the study, shook his head, "No."
Didn't even go to the study room.
"I went out to buy some things in the afternoon, but I didn't have time to go to the study." Tang Muqing rubbed his face that was hot from the alcohol, lazily got up and walked to the study, pulled out an invitation and opened it, "Oh... now I know. .”
Kudo Shinichi leaned on the sofa and looked at Tang Muqing for half a month, then turned to Zhufu Jingguang couldn't help but complain in a low voice, "It must be tiring to take care of him, right?"
It feels like all the servants in the young master's house are very tired, especially when they meet an employer like Tang Muqing who takes an unusual approach.
Hearing this, Zhu Fu Jingguang smiled warmly, placed the fruit plate in front of the two of them, and said softly, "Master Qing is not a very picky employer."
This is true. There are many things to note when nit-picking, but when we actually get along with each other, I feel that he is quite easy-going, arrogant but not domineering.
After saying this, Zhu Fu Jingguang sat aside and looked sideways at Tang Muqing, who had returned to the sofa with his legs curled up, "Do you want to attend Mr. He Cheng's banquet? If you are sure to go, I will go in the evening Arrange a vehicle and driver to pick you up.”
"No." Tang Muqing lowered his eyes and tugged at the golden beads on his wrist, not even bothering to lift his eyelids.
The man's always gentle and lazy voice said a decisive refusal, which made Zhu Fu Jingguang a little stunned for a moment.
Isn’t the superficial relationship between the uncle and nephew very close?
One is pampering and the other is admiring, at least they look harmonious on their faces, how come...
He thought for a while, stretched out his hand and put the mobile phone in Tang Muqing's hand, and reminded him gently, "Mr. Hecheng sent the invitation, and it was in the name of the Tang Mu family. You should personally explain to Mr. Hecheng that you are not attending the banquet. "
"Give him shame." Tang Muqing threw the phone back on the table, and repeated with more irritation in his voice: "I won't go."
After the words fell, the two children looked up in shock and looked at Tang Muqing with confusion in their eyes.
Why are you still angry?
"Brother Tang Mu..." Xiaolan hesitated, but couldn't help lowering her voice and said, "Did you have a conflict because of what Shinichi said that day? Or..."
"I misunderstood that day, and I apologized." Kudo Shinichi's face was full of confusion, and he frowned at Tang Muqing, "Brother Tang Mu, did you...find anything later?"
The last time we met, the uncle and nephew were so close that they almost cried on the spot. Why did it suddenly become like this?
On the other side, Zhu Fu Jingguang reached out and picked up the invitation and looked at it again and again, but still didn't see any errors in the wording or other places.
After a long while, Zhu Fu Jingguang hesitated and then asked, "Why?"
"I'm in Tokyo, he's in Kyoto." Tang Muqing opened his eyes and looked at the ceiling, with a rare expression on his face, "I need to take a long car ride to go back, wearing formal clothes and behaving appropriately, chatting and laughing with a group of old men, and drinking alone Get drunk and then drive back for hours.”
Zhu Fu Jingguang:...
Zhu Fu Jingguang fell into silence.
That's true, but wasn't it always like this before?
"The important thing is..." Tang Muqing rubbed his forehead and sighed softly, "I will start school the next day after I come back."
Damn it, who is visiting relatives before school starts? Doesn’t this delay working overtime to catch up on homework?
Although he didn't have any holiday homework, it didn't stop him from being in a bad mood.
Couldn't the regent be more conscious and completely ignore him?
Zhu Fu Jingguang took a deep breath, picked up the mobile phone again and put it into Tang Muqing's hand, with a hint of sincerity in his voice, "I'd better call and say, I heard that there will be many people from the media at this banquet. The news that the Tang Mu family is not getting along is not good."
After saying this, Zhu Fu Jingguang looked into Tang Muqing's eyes, his light brown pupils filled with an expression of 'What nonsense are you talking about'.
"Then you've never been so harmonious..." Tang Muqing sighed softly, lazily leaning on the sofa and clicking on his cell phone, "Whose family can happily make a will..."
Tang Muqing glanced at the time and dialed Tang Mu Hecheng's number.
Hey, this is a reserve guy who wanted to stab himself to death but was forced to stop.
"Uncle Hecheng, it's me." Tang Muqing's face was expressionless, staring at the brick-like mobile phone in his hand, vividly suppressing the shyness and intimacy of a young man when facing his elders, "I received a banquet invitation from my uncle. But I’m about to start school, so uncle…”
Before Tang Muqing could express his polite refusal, Tang Mu Hecheng's steady voice came from the phone, "It doesn't matter, I have asked your teacher for leave. You are an adult. It will be good for you to participate in this kind of banquet."
Tang Muqing:...
When I become an adult, do I still need my guardian to ask for leave from the school?
"But uncle, I've been sick these past few days..." Tang Muqing refused to give up, his voice was extremely gentle, "I will be sad if I infect uncle."
Tang Muhecheng seemed a little disgusted. After a long silence, he continued to speak. His voice also contained the same doting and helplessness towards the juniors. "Xiaoqing is not used to living alone outside. An assistant seems to be If it’s not enough, uncle will send you the servants from the old house. Our family also has many houses in Tokyo..."
"I think I must be in good health before the banquet." Tang Muqing's face was expressionless, his tone was gentle and shy, and he was just right to deal with the embarrassment and confusion of his elders. "I will have to trouble Uncle Hecheng then. I will definitely arrive on time. Yes, uncle, please take care of yourself. If you are tired, uncle, I will be so ashamed and angry that I will commit suicide by committing seppuku. Goodbye."
As soon as he finished speaking, Tang Muqing hung up the phone decisively.
He raised his head for a moment and met three pairs of eyes filled with shock and confusion.
"What's wrong?" Tang Muqing smiled again, bending his eyes gently and elegantly.
"Ahem..." Kudo Shinichi came to his senses, rubbed the back of his head and muttered, "Your acting skills are not much worse than my mother..."
"It seems that Brother Tang Mu really doesn't like to attend banquets..." Xiaolan smiled, but couldn't help but say, "But Shinichi and I will also go, and we will talk to Brother Tang Mu then."
On the other side, Zhu Fu Jingguang's heart sank slightly, his eyes stopped on Tang Muqing, and there was a trace of caution in his eyes.
"Mr. Obara, will you accompany me?" Tang Muqing suddenly turned his head and looked at Zhu Fu Jingguang with a smile, "If Mr. Obara had accompanied me, I don't think I would have spent the whole year at the banquet."
Zhu Fu Jingguang:...
Is this kid playing him? !
