(16) Evasion
When Ling Feng said this, his attitude was as normal as if he was urging Su Mu to eat before. Su Mu looked at Ling Feng with tears in his eyes as if nothing had happened, and he didn't know for a moment whether he should persist or give up.
She is not stupid, she knows that the result of this meeting must be that the two parents must reach a consensus to prevent these two people from being together. She could even guess that the two families would definitely put the choice in her hands and force her to give up.
They won't persecute Ling Feng, because let alone them, even Su Mu thinks that Ling Feng is a child, and he usually has to be patient with him a little more, not to mention parents, if they want to talk to Su Mu about this matter next, they will definitely tell her that Ling Feng is still young, not sensible, and doesn't understand these truths, but when she is old, she should know right and wrong, and she should also understand the trade-offs. It is useless to covet momentary pleasures, and it is not for momentary pleasure that two people are together. Ling Feng was with her, it was not harmful to him at all, because if the two of them broke up in a few years, he would be just the right age, and he would meet many more suitable people, but for Su Mu, being with Ling Feng more would be equivalent to wasting one more day of her time. Women's youth is limited, even if equality between men and women is advocated now, but in fact, there are more things about inequality between men and women, Su Mu himself doesn't think it, it doesn't mean that everyone doesn't think it, the power of gossip is very great, and Su Mu will definitely be under a lot of pressure when the time comes, and he will definitely give up in the end.
Su Mu had thought about these words many times a long time ago, and she understood them all without them saying them. But understanding the truth is one thing, and whether or not it can be done is another thing, Su Mu obviously didn't do it, and not only did he not do it, but he also fell deeper and deeper into his mistakes, and he couldn't extricate himself at all.
When did he fall into this trap, this question Su Mu actually thought about for a long time and didn't think of an answer. But it was obvious that now was not the time to think about it, she wanted to know what the two families had said, and even more so what kind of attitude Ling Feng had.
In fact, for Su Mu, she actually has a lot of shadows about this kind of thing, the boy she liked very much in high school was because she broke up with her after a parent-teacher meeting, and the reason was also because her parents disagreed. So she has always been afraid that this kind of thing will happen to her repeatedly, which is the biggest reason why she is worried about the two parents meeting. No matter what happened to her and Ling Feng, she felt that the two of them could solve it on their own, but once the parents intervened, the originally simple problem would definitely become very complicated.
In fact, Su Mu has always had her own thoughts, and to a certain extent, she is still very stubborn. Unless she wants to change her mind, it is very difficult to get her to be obedient and make changes, and sometimes even coercion does not work. Because she's still very strong. She likes to take control of everything herself, so to a large extent, it is very difficult to find something that can force her. But it's a pity that while being strong, she has a very weird soft-heartedness. And this soft-heartedness is reflected in her obedience to her parents. So much so that now while she was worried about other things, she was also constantly worrying about whether she would obey her parents and give up on Ling Feng as before.
She really didn't want to give up on him, and if it was possible, this time, she really wanted to be with him for the rest of her life.
Ling Feng actually reacted to Su Mu's gaze, but he really didn't know what kind of response he had to make to her attitude. To be honest, after listening to the parents' conversations, he really had a deep feeling, and now his mind is also very confused, and he has no idea what he thinks. He didn't even dare to talk more, for fear that if he talked too much, he would blurt out that he wanted to break up with Su Mu.
Before these things happened today, he always felt that he had the ability to give Su Mu happiness, and he had always worked in this direction. But after listening to what the parents said today, he suddenly had doubts about his firmness. He does not deny that he loves Su Mu and really loves her. But now he has no way to guarantee whether he can give Su Mu happiness.
If she really can't give Su Mu happiness as they say, then does she still want to be with Su Mu?
Those vows he made, the moment he blurted it out, he really hoped that he could do it. But if it really can't be achieved forever, then do you still have to keep this oath and not give up?
After all, don't they say that to love someone is to try to give her happiness? If you can't give it yourself, then don't you have to let go and let her find her own happiness?
So should he let go and let Su Mu find her true happiness?
With such a question, Ling Feng simply controlled his idea of going to see Su Mu, he lowered his head and kept watching the movements of his hands, and did not stop for half a moment, for fear that as soon as he stopped, he would not be able to help but mention to Su Mu the content of the conversation with those adults tonight. She didn't want Su Mu to know these things at all, because he knew very well that Su Mu's words would definitely cause her a lot of harm when she heard these words. She's a very sensitive person, although she usually shows a very indifference, indifferent to everything, and her mentality is pretty good, but in fact, she cares about these things more than anyone else. She can hide it from others, but he gets along with her day and night, and she can't hide it from him. He didn't say anything, he just wanted to give Su Mu the face he wanted, which was also a very important reason why he was determined to protect Su Mu.
He felt that Su Mu had too many things to support by himself, and in his eyes, many things should not be something that Su Mu had to bear as a girl. He hoped that she would be able to live a little easier, and that she would be able to smile especially happily when facing him like she did when they first met.
But now it seems that things are not so simple.
After Su Mu stared at Ling Feng for so long and didn't get a response, tears finally fell. Like an abandoned child, she didn't know what she should do, so she could only silently shed tears, turned her back, and continued to make her unfinished ring. For the first time, Ling Feng forced himself to ignore Su Mu's tears, pretending not to see anything, and only wanted to finish the ring on his hand as soon as possible, and then get out of this environment.
After a few more moments, the parents' meeting was over. Ling Feng's parents didn't come over to see Su Mu alone, and Su Mu's mother only came here to take a look at Su Mu, and then didn't say anything to her, just told Ling Feng to let him go home quickly at night, and not to delay outside for too long, so that his mother would worry. He agreed casually, chatted with Su Mu's mother by the way, and then sent the two of them outside the store, and only after making sure that the two of them were going home did he turn around and go back to the store.
Su Mu still didn't speak, just continued to make the ring on her hand. However, today's time is really not enough, and by the time the mall sounded the announcement of getting off work, the rings of the two people were only halfway done. Su Mu didn't think about continuing to do it, she took the ring in Ling Feng's hand and put it where the customer had deposited it, and she got off work with Ling Feng.
When she walked to the door, Su Mu remembered her mother's explanation, so she was ready to take a car to send Ling Feng away, but just after the car came, Ling Feng threw Su Mu into the car without saying a word, and then got into the car himself.
"Master driver, let's go to Fengqing Community first, send her home, and then go to Dadi Community. ”
As soon as he got in the car, Ling Feng clearly told the driver where he was going, so the driver didn't hesitate at all, stepped on the accelerator and drove towards the first destination.
Before Su Mu's question could be spoken, she was so frightened by the driver's foot on the accelerator that she swallowed it all back, and only after she got used to this speed did she widen her eyes and say to Ling Feng with some anger:
"Didn't you tell you to hurry home? You don't have to send me. ”
"Can you stop talking nonsense? I'm in the car, and it's almost to your house, can I get another car halfway down? How much money would it have to waste!"
Ling Feng said it seriously, and as he spoke, he took Su Mu into his arms as before. Su Mu resisted a little, but she couldn't help her posture at all, so she could only be at the mercy of Ling Feng.
Controlling the person in his arms, Ling Feng subconsciously put his hand on Su Mu's chest. Su Mu thought he was going to do something, so he was so nervous that he wanted to slap his hand off. As a result, just as she raised her hand and wanted to continue the next move, Ling Feng suddenly asked her a question:
"Am I living here after all this time?"
When he heard this, Su Mu almost couldn't control himself and let the tears flow. She wanted to say that he had already moved in, but she really didn't want to say this until she figured out Ling Feng's thoughts. Because her self-esteem admonishes her not to show too much affection for them in front of any man under any circumstances. Otherwise, you will only put yourself in a more humble and precarious situation.
Ling Feng waited for a long time and didn't wait for Su Mu's answer, so he continued to cry and continued:
"After going home in a while, you wash up early and go to bed, my phone is broken, I may go to fix it tomorrow, my parents are at home tonight, it may not be convenient to call you. So don't worry, I won't reply to your messages, and I will definitely contact you as soon as I fix my phone the next day. ”
Su Mu always felt that Ling Feng said these words as if he was confessing his last words, which made her sound very uncomfortable. However, Ling Feng was able to do this, to be able to report his whereabouts at all times, and to report to her before doing anything, which was really a bit unexpected for Su Mu. After all, she hadn't asked for these things before, and it was really not easy for Ling Feng to take the initiative to realize these problems today.
In this way, the two of them did not say another word along the way. After Su Mu returned home, she had completely lost contact with Ling Feng.
Ever since she was with Ling Feng, she had rarely had time to think about things and do what she wanted to do by herself at night. Normally, such an opportunity is not easy for her, he has always wanted such freedom before, but now that she has the freedom to get in such a situation, she hopes that it will only be this time.
After forcing himself to go to bed early, the next morning, the unprecedented Su Mu got up very early. It's just unfortunate that although her mother went to work, the second aunt who came to her house for the New Year was still at home and didn't go out during this time period as before. And more importantly, her second aunt also participated in that conversation last night, that is to say, there is such a witness in the communication between the two families from beginning to end.
Su Mu actually wanted to know what happened last night through her mouth. But when she thought that if she brought up this topic, it would definitely attract her second aunt to educate her, so she gave up her own idea.
Rather than being curious, she feels that a more stable life now is her better pursuit.
It's just that if some things are doomed, they haven't escaped at all, maybe she escaped the soul interrogation of her second aunt last night, and by this morning, she may have to double it back.
This is also to blame for her quick mouth, as soon as she went out, she saw the alarm clock on the wall, and seeing that it was this time, she couldn't help but blurt out a sentence that she got up a little early today, and coincidentally, this sentence was heard by her second aunt, so her second aunt specially took time to prepare to talk to her about Ling Feng before eating.
Su Mu really didn't think there was anything to talk about, as for Ling Feng's question, they should have known very well last night, and they definitely knew more than her, so there was no need for her to repeat it. On the contrary, she has a stomach full of questions now, so compared to her second aunt looking for her to discuss something, it is better to say that she herself has too many questions that need to be answered. So she tried to preemptively take the right to speak, and didn't let her second aunt say so many words yesterday that had no effect at all to her again.
"Hehe, second aunt, what are you going to eat tonight? can you set aside some of it for me when I get off work, or just fry a little more when you stir-fry, don't leave it for me at all." I don't have to go out to eat every day, so you have to get me a pair of chopsticks.
