Chapter 498: Chapter 498
The black SUV sped down the street. Xia Shi looked at the scenery on both sides of the road, furrowing his brows slightly, "Xiaxia, this place..." It looks kind of familiar.
Bi Xia lightly curled his lips. At that moment, the phone in the car rang. Bi Xia looked at the caller ID, raised his hand to answer, and a boy’s cheerful voice rang out, "Boss, when are you arriving? Chi and I... Oh, and my foodie dad, we’re already here."
Listening to the boy’s voice, Xia Shi looked at Bi Xia with even more confusion, while the Little Bun sitting in the back seat stretched his little head forward, raised his hand, and knocked on Bi Xiaoyuan, saying in a low voice, "It’s dangerous, sit properly."
Seeing Bi Xiaoyuan obediently sit back, placing his hands on his knees, Bi Xia chuckled softly, saying, "You guys wait a bit; I’m already at the traffic light. I’ll be there in five minutes."
"Alright~" The boy responded, and as he hung up the phone, you could still hear him saying "almost there."
Xia Shi felt that the voice was very familiar, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "Is it... Kuang?"
Bi Xia chuckled, "Recognized it?"
"I recognized it," Xia Shi laughed, "Every time he comes to help at the store, he’s always so loud and noisy, completely different from how he used to be."
"Of course, it’s different," Bi Xia said while turning the steering wheel. Before even pulling over, they saw Meng Chi standing at the door waiting for them, "Their whole family are foodies. To them, you’re practically a savior."
Saying this, he turned the car into the parking lot. After parking, Bi Xia unbuckled his seatbelt, opened the car door, and smiled at the bewildered Xia Shi and Bi Xiaoyuan, "Let’s go, we’re here."
Bi Xiaoyuan obediently stretched out his little arms, raised his head, and looked at Bi Xia with big, twinkling eyes, "Brother, carry me~"
Helplessly knocking on Bi Xiaoyuan’s little head, Bi Xia opened the back door, bent over to pick up Bi Xiaoyuan, and carried him. With Xia Shi following, they walked out of the parking lot.
Outside the parking lot, Meng Chi, who saw the three approaching, stood at the door and pushed it open, "Boss, Aunt Xia, please come in."
"Thanks, Chi." Xia Shi patted Meng Chi’s shoulder and said with a smile.
Meng Chi shook his head and was about to speak when Bi Xiaoyuan, nestled in Bi Xia’s arms, poked out his little head and smiled, "Hi, Brother Chi~" Follow current novᴇls on NoveI★Fire.net
Meng Chi paused, then smiled broadly and patted Bi Xiaoyuan’s little head, "Hello, Xiaoyuan."
Xia Shi raised an eyebrow and looked at Meng Chi, "When did you two become so close?"
Meng Chi smiled, "You call this close? As long as Ye Xiao is around, Xiaoyuan always wants him to carry him."
"Oh?" Bi Xia was surprised.
Meng Chi shrugged, "Because the first day Ye Xiao met Bi Xiaoyuan, he carried him on his shoulders and ran around the streets. Since then, Brother Xiao became Xiaoyuan’s designated ride."
Unable to hold back, Bi Xia burst into laughter, "When did Ye Xiao meet Xiaoyuan? How come I didn’t know?"
"What do you even know?" Xia Shi rolled his eyes at Bi Xia, "When was the last time you went home or helped out at the store after school?"
Saying this, Xia Shi suddenly teased Bi Xia with a wink, mentioning how he didn’t know who frequently went to look for Fourth Brother right after school.
Clearing his throat, Bi Xia rubbed his nose and turned away, ignoring Xia Shi. Meng Chi chuckled and whispered to Bi Xia as Xia Shi walked ahead, "Since Ye Xiao joined Nine Pavilion, we’ve been bringing him along."
So that’s how it was... Wait a minute, Bi Xia turned to Meng Chi, "How come I feel you guys go to my mom’s store more often than I do?"
Hearing Bi Xia’s question, Meng Chi hesitated, his gaze floating around before finally confessing under Bi Xia’s pressure.
First, the boss’s family is their family. Helping out family is Nine Pavilion’s extracurricular activity, and since the store is always busy, and we’ve had troublemakers who are jealous, we didn’t want Bi Xia to worry about home matters while he’s already busy enough with Nine Pavilion and X Group. So we all took turns helping out at the store, also to... keep the peace!
Second... Meng Chi scratched his head, "Aunt Xia’s cooking keeps getting better and better..."
Bi Xia: "...Good brothers! You have great taste!"
007: ...Definitely birds of a feather flock together, following Bi Xia around, they’re all foodies!
