Chapter 27: I'm leaving
In the bedroom, Lin Dier was talking on the phone. She had just woken up and felt tired, so she leaned lazily against the head of the bed and didn't get up, like a lazy cat.
"Di'er, have you been busy at work lately?" Lin Di'er's grandmother on the other end of the phone, and her concerned voice came, which made Lin Di'er instantly remember the old man's loving face, just like the sun shining on her quilt now, giving people a warm feeling.
"It's fine. Grandma, I have a great job, and now I am an assistant to the director. Lin Di'er said happily.
"Yes, hehe, my Di'er is excellent. The old man's words were full of relief and pride.
"Of course, don't look at whose granddaughter I am. ”
"You don't know who you are, with such a sweet mouth. Did you eat on time and sleep well?"
"Of course, next time I go back, you'll see that I'm fat as a little fat pig. ”
"It's good to be fat, you're just too thin. If the money is not enough, I will ask your Aunt Wang to remit some money to you. ”
"It's enough, I'm the assistant director, don't worry. Lin Dier knew that the old lady didn't worry about spending money, but she especially wanted to be as good as her mother, so after graduating from college, she yelled to be self-reliant.
"I'm afraid you don't have enough money, so you have to do it. The place in the famous city apartment is some distance away from the company where you work, and it is always unsafe for you to live in such a remote place as a little girl, so grandma will buy one for you near your company, our family has the conditions, why do you have to work so hard yourself?"
"Grandma, my mother was like that at that time, and I think I can too. Speaking of her mother, Lin Di'er's heart couldn't help but twitch, she hadn't seen each other for 14 years, even if she came back to see her grandmother, it was Lin Di'er's school time, Lin Di'er had been unable to understand her mother's indifference, but she was helpless, after all, she couldn't find the answer, and no one would tell her what all this was for.
“······ Di'er, yesterday your father asked someone to bring you a lot of gifts, he has been busy with work recently, he can't get out, and he is afraid of delaying your rest when he calls. When will you come back, see if you need anything, you can take it back and use it!" Whenever Lin Di'er talked about her mother, her grandmother would pay special attention to her emotions, so she quickly changed the topic.
"Grandma, I'······ I'll come back in a while. I had just been promoted to assistant director, so I was familiar with a lot of work and a little busy······ Just a little, not tired, don't worry. I'm busy, I'll go back to see you. Lin Di'er's wound was still aching, and she didn't want the old lady to worry, so she casually found a reason. "That, grandma, I'll go to work first, or I'll be miserable if I work overtime at night. ”
Listening to Lin Di'er's inconsistent and unusually answer, the old man did not expose her, but said with a smile: "Then you go quickly, don't work too hard, it's a big deal, come back to grandma to raise you." ”
"Okay Grandma, I see. You pay attention to the body, I'm going to be busy. Bye. ”
Mountain villa on the outskirts of the city, the air is refreshing. The old man was sitting in a delicate European-style sofa, his gray hair delicately coiled, dressed in an emerald green cheongsam with a curly grass pattern, a white and withered wrist with an emerald green jade bracelet, and shrewd eyes staring at the phone that had just been hung up. "Xiao Wang?"
"Madam, what do you command?" a middle-aged woman in a professional suit came and stood beside the old man and waited respectfully.
"Let's find out what's going on with Di'er?" the old man's smile on the phone had disappeared, and all that was left was majesty.
"Yes, ma'am. The middle-aged woman turned and left.
The old man was still sitting on the sofa, his face full of worry.
After Lin Dier put down the phone, she was a little sad, her father had not come to see her this year.
"Knock knock. Suddenly there was a knock at the door.
This made Lin Di'er startled, and she realized in an instant where she was now. "Wait a minute, this is up. She immediately rolled over and got out of bed, but she inadvertently touched the wound and sent a heart-piercing pain. She almost forgot that the wound had not healed.
Lin Di'er eased the wound for a while, and turned to open the door.
As soon as the door was opened, facing Lin Weichen outside, he was already fully dressed, and he looked ready to go to work.
"Let's have breakfast after washing. ”
"Will you do it?" said Lin Di'er with wide eyes and suspicious.
"I'll buy it. Lin Weichen looked at Lin Di'er with a smile, "Hurry up, it'll be cold for a while." ”
"Oh. Lin Di'er was indeed hungry, so she quickly washed up and went to breakfast.
Lin Weichen was already sitting at the dining table, reading the newspaper, watching Lin Di'er come and hand over a cup of hot soy milk.
"I've bothered you these days, I'll go back after breakfast. Lin Di'er took the soy milk and hadn't taken a sip yet. In fact, she is especially grateful to Lin Weichen for taking care of her in the past few days, but it is not a way to live in her employer's house and occupy other people's beds, and besides, it is not good for a lonely man and a widow to be in the same room. The main reason is that Lin Weichen changed her dressing yesterday, which really scared her.
Lin Weichen was drinking soy milk, and when he heard this, his movements paused obviously, and then he said as if nothing had happened: "Okay." After only a moment of hesitation, Lin Weichen agreed. Treating others as stand-ins, it is obvious that even Lin Dier herself can see that since he can't guarantee that he can come out of the pain of that incident and fall in love and get married like a normal person, then it is better to end this ambiguity as soon as possible. And Lin Di'er obviously has no superfluous thoughts about him, and this result may be better.
He eventually gave up on the idea of letting Lindier redeem himself.
