Chapter 169: First Visit
When Sister Chen Fang heard that name, memories came flooding in from all directions for a while. From the Wenyuan when I was in college to the figure chasing me on the platform when I left X City, everything seems to have happened yesterday, and I remember it vividly. After experiencing reincarnation, my heart naturally has mixed feelings. But what else can you do except shed a few tears that have passed through the times?
"What's wrong with you?
Perhaps seeing that something was wrong with her sister, Chen Fang hurriedly walked to her sister's side and sat down, gently stroked her back, and asked softly.
"It's okay, your boss is very similar to an old man of mine, and I unconsciously remembered some of the past!" How much does a person in the depths of memory have to be integrated into life to make a person cry?
Chen Fang didn't ask any more questions, but said, "It's over, let it pass!" The two sisters sat next to each other in the shop, the snow outside was blowing and falling, and the originally noisy city was much quieter.
At the other end, when the snow in the mountains accumulated a thick layer, Lin Jiaming and Lu Haowan finally arrived at their destination, but the promised greeting did not come as promised, only the white snow blanket in front of the door and the desertion in the house.
"Mom~ I'm back!" Lu Haowan jumped into the house like a child, leaving two lines of footprints on the snow blanket outside the house. Lin Jiaming, who followed behind her, carried the cigarettes and alcohol that Lu Haowan had bought, and followed Lu Haowan's footprints into the house.
"Dad, Mom?" Lu Haowan stood in the living room for a long time, but no one answered.
"Wan'er is back?" After a while, Jin Shutong slowly walked out.
"Hello Auntie!" Lin Jiaming hurriedly said hello.
"Well, Xiaolin is also here, come in and sit~" Jin Shutong's tone was obviously much colder than before.
"Mom, where's my dad?" Lu Haowan patronized the excitement of arriving home, not noticing these subtle changes.
"Your dad is in the house!" Jin Shutong's tone was still a little cold.
Lin Jiaming followed Lu Haowan to the living room, Lu Feng sat on the sofa with his back to the door, holding the remote control in his hand to the TV, switching TV channels back and forth with a displeased face, and finally simply turned off the TV and threw the remote control on the coffee table.
"Dad, I'm back!" Lu Haowan rushed to Lu Feng in three steps and two steps, and shouted loudly.
"Come back, come back, what are you yelling about!" Lu Feng said coldly.
Seeing Lu Feng like this, Lu Haowan's mood instantly fell.
"What's the matter with you? It's rare for me to come back, and I don't have anything to provoke you, right? Why do you look like this when you enter ......the house?" Lu Haowan said aggrievedly.
Lu Feng didn't speak, and glanced at Lin Jiaming.
"Hello uncle!" Lin Jiaming said hello awkwardly with cigarettes and wine.
"Oh, good!" Lu Feng replied perfunctorily.
"Sit down, I'll take care of something!" After speaking, Lu Feng stood up and walked upstairs, leaving Lin Jiaming and Lu Haowan looking at each other.
Lu Haowan didn't understand what was going on at home, the originally warm home became so deserted, the atmosphere was weird, and Lin Jiaming was even more embarrassed, he couldn't imagine that the first time he came to Lu Haowan's house, it was such a scene.
"Xiaolin, don't be surprised, we had an argument just now because of some things!" Jin Shutong's explanation somewhat relieved Lin Jiaming's embarrassment.
"It's okay, Auntie, this is something for your second elder, a little heart, I hope your second elder will not dislike it!" Lin Jiaming remembered the thing in his hand and handed it to Jin Shutong.
"Just come and play, and bring something! You're out there, when you need money...... By the way, you haven't eaten yet, have you? I'll get you something to eat, you can sit down first!" Jin Shutong took the things in Lin Jiaming's hand and turned around and entered the room.
A minute or two later, Jin Shutong walked to the kitchen and began to get busy in the kitchen.
Lin Jiaming stood in place for a while, hesitated and sat on the sofa. Lin Jiaming turned his face sideways and looked at Lu Haowan who was sulking on the sofa distressedly. He wanted to comfort her, but he didn't know how to speak. After all, he didn't know what was going on, and he didn't know the specific situation in Lu Haowan's family. Even her parents, he only met him more than three times, and every time they met, he felt a little depressed.
Since he didn't know how to be relieved, Lin Jiaming didn't say much, and at this time, it seemed better to be by her side silently.
There was nothing else in the room except for the sound of Jin Shutong busy in the kitchen. Lin Jiaming once again truly realized what it means to sit on pins and needles, and seconds are like years.
I don't know how long it took, but the kitchen finally quieted down, and Jin Shutong beckoned Lin Jiaming and Lu Haowan to eat.
"Xiaolin, it's the first time I've come to the house, don't be surprised if I don't greet you well!" At the dinner table, Jin Shutong took a pair of chopsticks and said while serving Lin Jiaming vegetables.
"Auntie, look at what you said, I am the first time to come to the door, please bear with me if the etiquette is not good. Lin Jiaming used a bowl to pick up the dishes that Jin Shutong had brought over, and said a little embarrassed.
Lu Haowan sat next to Lin Jiaming, bored there without saying a word, but Lin Jiaming urged her to hurry up and eat.
"Nier, hurry up and eat, it's such a cold day, it'll be cold later!"
Lu Haowan reluctantly picked up the bowl and took two mouthfuls of rice.
Looking at his daughter's appearance, Jin Shutong wanted to sigh, but finally held back, after all, at the dinner table, Lin Jiaming was also there, and sighing was not good after all, so he had to beckon the two of them to eat more.
"Don't you eat?" During the meal, Lin Jiaming found that only he and Lu Haowan had bowls and chopsticks, and Jin Shutong had nothing else in front of him except for a pair of chopsticks to pick up vegetables.
"We've eaten, you eat, you eat!"
Seeing Jin Shutong say this, Lin Jiaming didn't ask anymore, just ate the food on the table by himself, and glanced at Lu Haowan from time to time. Under her own "leadership", this girl finally ate normally.
After eating, I sat down for a while. Lin Jiaming looked outside through the glass, the snow was falling a little less, and after looking at the time, he felt that he couldn't delay any longer, so he got up and said goodbye to Jin Shutong.
"Auntie, I have to go, otherwise I won't be able to get home today!"
"Are you in such a hurry? I'm going to stay here for the night today!" Jin Shutong also stood up and retained Lin Jiaming.
"No, I have to rush back to X City tomorrow, there are some things that I can't leave!"
Seeing Lin Jiaming's resolute attitude, Jin Shutong no longer kept him, but just told him to be careful on the road.
"Uncle Lu, I should tell him about it too!"
"It's okay, don't worry about him, I'll talk to him later!" Jin Shutong said.
"Okay then, Auntie, I'm leaving, I wish you a happy new year in advance!" After speaking, Lin Jiaming glanced at Lu Haowan, and the girl also looked at him with red eyes.
Although Lin Jiaming was reluctant to give up, he returned to the car and drove away from the Lu family.
