Chapter 2726  : Give them some time to be alone

Xia Anlan did not say anything as he was not thinking about anything else.

They stayed at home until lunch, but it wasn’t as lively. The atmosphere at the table was a little gloomy, and su ningmei couldn’t sit still. She kept thinking about her mother.

After lunch, Xia Anlan also planned to leave.””I should go too. This trip to the capital is a temporary official business. I have to hurry back to sea city. If I don’t go back soon, it will be a mess.”

The old Madam pretended to have suddenly recalled something and said,””By the way, Anlan, you came here on a private plane, right? you’re going back too, right?”

Xia Anlan nodded.”Yes, the Secretary has already made the arrangements.”

“That’s great. Do me a favor and take Meimei back. She’s going back to Sucheng. It’ll be much easier to get back to Sucheng if you take her to Sea city.”

Su ningmei waved her hands.”Ah, no need, no need. I’m just going back to visit my mom. I’ll just take the plane to Sucheng. There’s no need to transfer to Sea city. It’s too troublesome.”

The old Madam did not even ask for her son’s opinion and said,””What’s so troublesome about that? it’s much more convenient than waiting for the plane and rushing on your own. Once you and an LAN reach Sea city, let him arrange a car to send you back. That’s too convenient.”

Nie qiuping nodded.”I think that’s a good idea, mom. You Yi’s subordinate called just now and said that the earliest flight to feisu city will take off at six in the afternoon. You can’t wait that long.”

Nie qiuping’s words moved su ningmei, but she was still hesitating because she felt extremely uncomfortable at the thought of being alone with Xia Anlan.

“But ... This will delay Mayor Xia’s work.”

“There’s no need to delay,” grandma Jian said.”It’s just on the way. It’s much faster than waiting for a flight.”

Xia Anlan saw that his family had already made the decision for him. He said,””We’re all friends, no need to be so polite. ”

“That’s right. We’re all friends. Mom said that sister Mei used to call him ‘big brother’ just like me when we were young. Why are we so distant now?”

Xia Anlan glanced at nie qiuping. How could he not know what they were thinking? they were just trying to create an opportunity for him and nie qiuping to get along.

Forget it, let them be.

If it wasn’t for his family, he wouldn’t have bothered to worry about him.

Xia Anlan looked at the time and said to su ningmei,””Let’s go,”he said.

“Alright,” he said.

The family sent them off, and the old Madam said,””Anlan, you must take good care of Meimei.”

Xia Anlan nodded.”Mm, I know. Don’t worry.”

The two of them walked into the elevator, and the door slowly closed. There were only the two of them in the enclosed space. Su ningmei gulped, and her feet involuntarily moved to the side.

Being alone with Xia Anlan, su ningmei felt that her breathing was not smooth.

Neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere was too awkward. Su ningmei hesitated and said,””That ... Thank you.”

Xia Anlan smiled.”You’re too kind. I ... Really have a deep memory of the meal you made last time. This is a thank you gift for cooking for me.”

He said it so seriously, as if he was really grateful for the meal she made last time, which made her particularly embarrassed. She blushed and said,”I ... I ...”

The elevator arrived with a ding.

“We’re here,” Xia Anlan said.”Let’s go. I’m really grateful for your meal. Don’t overthink it.”

Su ningmei’s legs went soft. Your sister, you said it so deliberately, and you call it not overthinking?
