"No!" I stood up, turned around and walked away.

Walking all the way to the intersection in front, I turned a corner and walked out again, only then did I look back at the back, and Lian Jincheng did not follow.

I walked aimlessly for a while, and the phone in my bag rang again, and I didn't even take it out to look at it.

When I got to the next intersection, I really didn't know where I could go.

The traffic light at the intersection has changed several times, and there is a faint desolation in my heart, H City is so big, but I don't even have a place to go!

Taking a deep breath, I decided to go home. The "home" of me and Lu Xudong.

On the way back by taxi, the mobile phone in the bag rang again, and I took it out to see that it was actually my mother.

I was startled and quickly pressed the answer: "Mom, why haven't you slept so late?"

"You also know that it was late, you didn't answer my phone call a few times, called Xudong, and said that he was not with you when he was out socializing. My mom was not angry, "Why are you doing so late?"

"I didn't do anything, I had a meeting at work today, and my phone was muted, and I forgot about it. I was afraid that she would dig deeper, so I quickly changed the subject: "Do you have something?"

"It's fine. "My mother squeaked, and it took a while to say that Lian Jincheng called her.

"Why did he call you?" I was a little panicked, this bastard, I couldn't pretend to be a good person, and I went to tell my mom something.

"No, just ask me how you're doing!" my mom sighed, "I told him you're married, and told him not to call in the future." Don't forget that you're married, Xudong is a good boy, you see he's still socializing for work so late, don't do anything foolish!"

I breathed a sigh of relief, and I felt like crying, I really wanted to say that the good boy in your mouth is a homosexual/sexual, but in the end I swallowed the words back, "Mom, I didn't have any contact with him, I just met him on the road that day." ”

"It's good that there is no contact!" My mother also breathed a sigh of relief, praised Lu Xudong again, and told us to go home often when we were free, and then hung up the phone.

I held my phone and looked out the window blankly, and the street lamps quickly passed in front of me, and soon, the familiar gate of the community appeared in my eyes.

After paying and getting out of the car, I stood there again and looked at the tall buildings in front of me for a while, with sporadic lights shining through different windows on each floor, like starlight out of reach.

I don't think Lu Xudong will come back at night, I witnessed such an unbearable scene, but he didn't have a single phone call or message.

He doesn't even have the heart to perfunctory me, does he?

Surprisingly, when I opened the door and entered the house, there was no room of darkness waiting for me.

The lights in the living room are on, and there is a faint movement in the room. I was stunned for a moment, very overwhelmed, and the first thought that came to my mind was: Lu Xudong won't bring people home, right?

The people in the room should have heard me open the door, and soon came out, and it was actually Lu Xi.

"I'm finally back. She looked at me, her usual eyes, the first thing she said to me was not disgust, and she smiled and made excuses for the reason why she was here: "Adong is going on a business trip tomorrow, let me come over and help him collect a few clothes." ”

Business trip? Such a lame excuse!

I smiled, instantly feeling very tired, and said to her while changing my shoes, "Sister, you have something to say!"

Lu Xi was obviously relieved when he heard me say this: "Yes, then I won't go around the bend with you, Ah Dongfei said that he wanted me to be tactful, I grew so big, I don't know what tactfulness is, it's really awkward." ”

As she spoke, the person had already walked to the sofa and sat down, "Adong told me everything about the evening, and he asked me to ask you, what do you think?"

I originally wanted to ask her why Lu Xudong didn't ask herself, but when I thought that his good looks would be pestering him drunk, how could he walk away.

So I smiled again and asked Lu Xi: "Did he really tell you everything?" he really ......" I looked at Lu Xi, I really couldn't say those three words, I just felt that my heart had finally calmed down, and I was panicked again.

I wish she had told me no, it was just a misunderstanding.

But Lu Xi ruthlessly extinguished my extravagance: "Yes, he doesn't like women!" Ah Dong talked about a girlfriend when he was in college, but that slut coveted our family's money, and my dad only spent 50,000 yuan to let her dump Ah Dong without any suspense, and Ah Dong began to fall out with my dad at that time, and avoided all women. ”

Lu Xi glanced at me, and in his eyes was the familiar contempt and contempt: "At first, I thought he was just out of love and temporarily lost interest in women, but later, he never fell in love again, so many women who chased him, he couldn't look down on any of them, including I wanted to introduce him to a girlfriend, and even the family wanted to arrange a blind date for him, he refused all of them, and the reaction was great." ”

She paused, and her tone gradually became a little resentful: "I pressed him privately, only to know that he not only doesn't like women, he is very disgusted, he thinks that every woman who approaches him under the guise of love and marriage is that slut!"

Even though I have only witnessed it with my own eyes, the truth that comes out of Lu Xi's mouth is still difficult for me to accept.

I looked at the wedding photo hanging in the living room, and I really couldn't understand what kind of mood Lu Xudong felt when he looked at it?

Lu Xi also followed me to look at the wedding photos on the wall, and then she smiled, and said to me in a rare and serious manner: "Don't be busy being sad, tell me, what do you think?"

I looked at her and asked persistently, "Then why did he marry me?"

A wisp of mockery floated at the corner of Lu Xi's mouth, and he replied disapprovingly: "Of course, it's to hide people's eyes and ears, and by the way, I'm angry with my dad!"

I smiled bitterly, it turned out that my intuition was really not wrong, but I didn't expect that Lu Xudong's sexual orientation was also problematic.

Lu Xi saw that I was silent, and asked me a little mockingly: "Otherwise? Do you think my brother fell in love with you at first sight? You probably don't know, the blind date with you was proposed by Adong to Di Ming, he knows that you have just fallen out of love, and your family is in a hurry to marry you off, and it just so happens that my father will definitely disagree with your conditions, so ......"

I was stunned and stared blankly at her open and closed mouth.

She shrugged her shoulders, as if to laugh at my incompetence: "Otherwise, depending on my brother's conditions, what kind of woman can't he find?"

I smiled bitterly, and then clenched my fists and looked at her: "Why don't you make it clear early in the morning, you guys are cheating on marriage at all!"

"Cheating marriage?" Lu Xi snorted disdainfully from his nose as if he had heard a big joke: "As far as your family asks for a bride price, I guess even if they know that my brother is gay, they will only ask for more money, right?"

"Bride price?" I looked at her dumbfounded, "What bride price?"

"Don't tell me you don't know!" Lu Xi laughed contemptuously, "When you finalized the wedding, your mother opened her mouth and asked for 80,000 bride price, to be honest, at first I thought she wanted less, but she didn't live up to my opinion of you people, and even asked for our family to transfer another house to your brother's name." ”

I believe my mother will do it when she asks for a bride price of 80,000 yuan, and every time she used to talk about me and Lian Jincheng not getting married, she would also say how much bride price should be paid by his family at that time.

Besides, 80,000 yuan is actually nothing compared to the sky-high bride price in many places, and the Lu family can afford it completely, but I still think my mother is too much, she never told me that she asked for a bride price, and even when I got married, she didn't even buy me a penny of dowry.

I looked at Lu Xi for a long time before I found my voice: "You guys...... Promised?"

"It's beautiful to think about!" Lu Xi glanced at me, "My dad didn't agree with you about this, and he immediately said that he would marry or not." Ah Dong has only been working for a few years, and he hasn't paid off the loan for his own house, where can he get the house for your family? ”

As soon as I breathed a sigh of relief, Lu Xi smiled mockingly: "Later, your family probably knew that the request was excessive, and they changed their words and said that if they didn't add more dowry, the house would be gone, and finally Ah Dong scraped together 200,000 yuan and sent it to your house, and the matter was decided." ”

"I was still thinking, after taking 200,000 dowry, you have to have a decent dowry, but what happened?"

She looked at me with raised eyebrows, and for the first time the contempt in her eyes made me feel ashamed.

No wonder she never looked down on me, and if I were her, I'm afraid I would.

Seeing that I didn't speak for a long time, Lu Xi pondered for a while and shouted in disbelief: "No, you really don't know?"

She looked at me for a few seconds, and sighed a few times, "No wonder my dad always said that the in-laws must find the right family, and sure enough, it's right, your family sold their daughter and kept her daughter in the dark!"

It was so ugly that my face changed, but I couldn't find the words to refute her.

Lu Xi obviously didn't want to tell me more, she looked up at the clock, and there was a flash of impatience on her face: "I won't tell you more, Adong was worried that you would get a divorce, so he called me to persuade you, you turned around and married him as soon as you fell out of love, it can be seen that you don't marry because of love, you need marriage, my brother gives you marriage, everyone is mutually beneficial, not to talk about cheating." Even if we conceal it first, do you dare to say that if Adong confesses the truth to you at that time, you will not marry?"

According to my mentality of who I will marry is not married, even if Lu Xudong is a fool, I will marry, not to mention that it is just homosexual/love, I am afraid that I will marry without any anxiety!

But if that's the case, at least I won't have extravagant thoughts, at least I won't treat his kindness to me as a treasure, and I won't fall in love with him!
