Chapter 287: Gatekeeper
The study has been cleaned up, there is a brand new bedding on the single bed, of course I didn't sleep directly, but chatted with Luo Jinxuan on WeChat. After more than an hour, the living room began to quiet down, and I asked, "Are you going to see if your parents are asleep?"
Luo Jinxuan: What are you going to do? (blushing)
Me: Yes!
Luo Jinxuan: ......
Me: Wait for me!
Putting away the phone, I gently pushed open the study door, the living room was dark, I cautiously touched Luo Jinxuan's room, and when I was halfway there, a person suddenly sat up on the sofa, "Xiaofang, what are you doing?"
The voice came so suddenly that I shuddered, and I turned around sharply to see from the light in the study that it was Luo Jinxuan's father, who was sitting on the sofa staring at me.
"Ah...... Uncle, I want to go to the toilet. "I hastened to make excuses.
"The bathroom is over there, over there. Luo Dad pointed his finger, I hurriedly sighed, turned around and walked into the bathroom, waited for a minute, flushed, came out, Luo Dad was still sitting on the sofa, "Xiao Fang, go to bed early if you have nothing to do, you have to drive tomorrow." ”
I sighed and asked, "Uncle, why don't you go back to your room to sleep? What if you catch a cold in the living room?"
"I drank a little too much today, so I'll sober up on the sofa and I'll be back to my room later. ”
"Well, I'll go back to my room first. ”
I reluctantly returned to the study, and when the door was closed, I took a special look, and Dad Luo really lay on the sofa again.
After waiting in the study for more than an hour, it was almost twelve o'clock, and I carefully felt it out again. This time, before I took two steps, Dad Luo got up from the sofa again, made a stretching movement, and then "inadvertently" saw me, "Eh, Xiaofang, haven't you slept so late?"
I laughed dryly, "Well, no, I'll go to the toilet again." Without waiting for Dad Luo to speak, I went to the bathroom, and returned to the study a minute later.
This time I figured it out, Luo's father didn't drink too much at all, he just used drunkenness as an excuse to deliberately sleep in the living room, just didn't want me to sneak into Luo Jinxuan's room.
The ginger is still old and spicy, and I have no choice but to endure it this time.
Luo Jinxuan sent me a snickering expression, I said I was very unhappy, wait until I go home tomorrow, and see who else will show you the door!
The next morning, Luo's father had dark circles under his eyes, and after breakfast, he rested in the living room for more than an hour, and Luo Jinxuan and I set off. Before leaving, Luo's mother had to give me 6,000 yuan, saying that it was a local custom, and the first time I met my parents, I had to give red envelopes. There is also this custom in my hometown, but I definitely didn't give 6,000 so much, so I kept refusing, and finally Luo Jinxuan took it, "What are you polite to my parents, don't you give it to me? I'll take it for you." ”
Luo's mother snorted and laughed, glaring at Luo Jinxuan, "You're a money fan!"
Luo's father put the specialties of L City that had been prepared a long time ago into the car, "These are for your parents, there are nothing particularly valuable, they are all local specialties." ”
"Thank you, uncle!"
Luo's mother took Luo Jinxuan's hand again, "Jinxuan, pay attention to safety outside, don't wronged yourself." Come back more when you have time. When she spoke, Luo Ma's eyes couldn't help but redden.
Luo's father pulled Luo's mother's clothes, "Okay, don't talk about this, Xiaofang will take care of Jinxuan." Xiao Fang, if you let me know that Jinxuan has been wronged a little, I won't be able to spare you!"
I nodded hurriedly, "Uncle and aunt, don't worry, I will never let Jinxuan suffer the slightest grievance!"
Dad Luo nodded, "Well, it's okay, it's not early, let's go early, pay attention to safety on the road." ”
Luo Ma wiped the corners of her eyes with her fingers, "Jinxuan, you guys slow down on the road, don't worry." Give me a call when it's time to go. ”
Luo Jinxuan's eyes were also a little red, "Dad, Mom, let's go." ”
Watching them part, my heart is also a little sour, but life is like this, we can't stay with our parents all the time, we always have our own life and career.
The distance between L city and my hometown Z is even farther away, more than 500 kilometers, and it takes at least six hours to drive, and if you add the rest time in the service area, it will be almost seven hours, so we set off in the morning and try to rush back in the evening.
It cost more than 300 to find a gas station in L City to fill up the gas, and the oil price is really getting more and more expensive.
Maybe it was because she had just separated from her parents, Luo Jinxuan's mood didn't seem very happy, so I kept looking for words to tell her, and after an hour she finally recovered, and I also took the opportunity to ask, "What is your parents' impression of me?"
Luo Jinxuan pursed her lips, "That's it, I didn't say it was good, I didn't say it was bad, I just thought your mouth was too sweet." ”
I laughed twice, "How can they marry you to me if your mouth is not sweet?"
"Who said I was going to marry you!" Luo Jinxuan was still stiff-mouthed.
"I know if you say it or not, you will definitely marry me anyway. I said very seriously: "I met my parents today, go back and discuss, and see when it is convenient for my parents and your parents to come out to meet and decide on our marriage." ”
Luo Jinxuan's face was slightly red, "Let's talk about it after seeing your parents first, I don't know if they will have an opinion on me." ”
"How can there be an opinion?" I smiled: "I have found such a beautiful, gentle, and virtuous daughter-in-law for them, and they are too late to be happy, how can they have an opinion?"
"Let's hope so. Luo Jinxuan is still a little lacking in confidence.
I didn't go on with that, but moved on to something else and said something related to the company to distract her, hoping to make her relax.
After running on the highway for three hours, just in the middle of the day, we found a service area to rest and have a bite to eat. The meals in the service area are not generally unpalatable, but fortunately, Luo's mother has prepared and prepared meals for us, as long as it is hot.
I said a few good words to the boss in the restaurant in the service area, and paid 20 hard money to let the boss help us heat up the meal, and after a brief lunch break, we continued on the road.
The journey has been halfway, I go home a little anxious, the speed of driving is inevitably faster, out of less than half an hour, suddenly a Range Rover from the left rushed out, scared I quickly stepped on the brakes to control the speed, the next second Land Rover with the roar of the engine away.
I am very unhappy in my heart, the most annoying thing is this kind of overtaking on the highway, and it is a major accident if I am not careful.
With this episode, I slowed down and preferred to go back a little later than have an accident. Unexpectedly, I drove forward for more than half an hour, and I saw the Land Rover just now overturning on the side of the road, without any movement.
