Chapter 20: Your Early Love

She looked away, and her hair covered half of her face.

Lu Rin looked at her for a while, and suddenly thought of what she looked like a tomboy at that time.

The lighting was ambiguous and soft, and the living room was quiet for a while, except for the crackling sound of grandma cooking in the kitchen.

Lu Rin's gaze fell on his knees without focus, as if he thought for a while, and then said:

"The important thing is not how many people accompany you for your birthday, but the most important people in your heart are with you for your birthday. ”

This sentence is very informative, and Yao Qing raised his head suddenly, what did he just say?

She didn't dare to turn her head to look at him, afraid of those deep eyes that seemed to be true and false, but in her heart she was carefully distinguishing the true and false meaning of his words little by little.

Be... The answer she's been running away from and never daring to be more serious seems to be about to come out.

"I'm referring to my grandmother. ”

……

While she breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, her heart slowly hit a faint sense of loss.

She was suddenly at a loss for a moment.

"You don't think I'm talking about you?" Lu Rin raised his eyebrows high and deliberately asked her in a mocking tone.

Yao Qing unconsciously tugged at the hem of his clothes with both hands, his eyes stared at the foot of the table, his eyes widened, and he said as if surprised: "Ah? I'm very self-aware, a man who compares me to an ashtray will like me?"

When she said this, the organs in her body seemed to be out of order, so that every cell in her body was neatly concentrated on Lu Rin's face, holding her breath and staring, as if she was looking for an untrue answer.

Lu Rin also stared at that face, as if trying to find a flaw in the seamless disguise.

Maybe she is acting in her true colors, Lu Rin smiled, cynicism mixed with the taste of gnashing teeth, and a layer of ethereal sadness.

If he was serious, then she would not immediately shrink into her shell.

"That's good, I'm afraid that some people will be amorous and troublesome. ”

She also smiled hypocritically, "Then don't worry, I will remember my identity." ”

Grandma Lu made a table of dishes, and when Lu Rin saw the birthday cake swept away with surprise and disgust on her face, Yao Qing secretly couldn't help but secretly rejoice.

A Barbie doll, next to which Lu Rin was written with jam Happy Birthday, and a pig was drawn between the words Lu Rin and Happy Birthday, which went without saying that she secretly told the clerk to add it later.

This is the first time Lu Rin has a birthday cake for his birthday, it is very funny to say, when he was a child, on his birthday, his grandmother had a gloomy face, he didn't know why, and he didn't dare to mention the birthday, and then he followed his second uncle to go abroad and came back again, and grandma took the initiative to give him a birthday.

There was still no birthday cake, and he never touched anything like this dessert again.

Yao Qing filled the cake with colorful candles and asked Lu Rin to make a wish.

When he was a child, Lu Rin would make a wish to the plum tree in the courtyard, and after the age of eighteen, all these processes were saved by him

Lu Rin's face flashed red, as if he was a little embarrassed.

He frowned, "Eat directly, what else do you wish? I'm not a child." ”

"Who said this is a child's prerogative?" Yao Qing looked at him stubbornly, "If you don't make a wish, it won't be a full birthday." ”

She had always naively believed that what her grandmother told her that all her wishes on her birthday would come true, even though she had never gotten what she wanted for so many years since she could remember.

Grandma also smiled and said, "Yes, Rin, you can promise one." ”

Lu Rin folded his hands very reverently, and Yao Qing somehow wanted to laugh.

As soon as Lu Rin blew out the candle, he caught a glimpse of Yao Qing's tiger-eyed eyes, and following her line of sight, Lu Rin quickly picked up the "pig", don't think he didn't know what she had in mind.

The duck flew to her beak, and then looked at Lu Rin's smug expression, she poked the fork in the plate to vent her anger, and her cold calf was kicked by Lu Rin again.

Lu Rin's 26th birthday ended between him and Yao Qing "talking and laughing" and fighting openly and secretly.

*

Tomorrow, the two will leave the town.

Lu Rin was lying on the kang, with his hands on the back of his head, looking at the moon outside the window, occasionally glancing at Yao Qing who was packing his luggage from time to time, and the words "years of quietness" suddenly popped up in his mind.

"Yao Qing, don't you ask me what I just made?"

Yao Qing finished folding Lu Rin's pants and put them into the innermost layer, "Then what wish did you make?"

To be honest, she was really interested.

Lu Rin shook his fingers, and the corners of his mouth turned up, "If I don't tell you, it won't work if I say it." ”

Then she was naΓ―ve and sick, Yao Qing shook his head and expressed helplessness, "Won't it be that Xu Company will earn it 100 million next year?"

Lu Rin turned to her, "You think everyone is as vulgar as you?"

Yao Qing paused, glanced at him, and then said: "Then I know, eighty percent of the company will lose 100 million next year." ”

.......

Lu Rin sneered, "If I run out of money, see where you can find such a generous owner as me." As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly asked her with a serious look: "If I have no money, will you leave me?" ”

Here it again is, he knows that he is about to drive her crazy, always saying these ambiguous and vague words, but telling her that he is just making himself amorous.

Deliberately ignoring the deep and scorching gaze he cast, Yao Qing lowered his head and replied casually: "Of course, I only recognize money and not people." ”

Lu Rin snorted, knowing that she couldn't say anything good in her mouth, she turned around angrily, and suddenly remembered the biography of Zhen Huan that Yao Qing watched that day, and said angrily: "You poisonous woman." ”

Yao Qing ignored him, closed the suitcase and put it to the wall, pulled the lamp, took off her shoes, got into the quilt, wrapped it twice, her brows were furrowed, and a faint sadness was brewing, she stared at Lu Rin's back for a moment before she said, "Lu Rin, when will our relationship end?" She had this idea for a long time, because slowly she found that some things had exceeded her expectations, and she was afraid that she would not be able to control the deviance, but a proud person like Lu Rin probably couldn't bear to say that his mistress would end it first.

After waiting for a while, the person on the other side didn't answer, Yao Qing chuckled, thinking that maybe she was really asleep, wrapped in the quilt, she closed her eyes and said, "Mr. Lu, good night." ”

The upper and lower eyelids were just about to meet at the Queqiao, when they suddenly heard Lu Rin in the dark say, "Why don't you tell me that you have lived here since you were a child?"

The old-fashioned wall clock ticks.

This.... I don't think it's a dream.

Yao Qing turned around and pulled the light line, glared at him, and no longer hidden, "You know?"

Lu Rin glanced at her and acquiesced.

Yao Qing closed her eyes, her hukou had already moved, if she didn't deliberately check, she wouldn't be able to find out her former hometown, then he was deliberately investigating her! He already knew that she lived here before, and she had gone around in such a big circle! So what else did he know?

A deepest, darkest secret was spied on, and a sense of panic quickly swept over her.

She tried her best to calm her fluctuating mood, lay down, pretended to be indifferent, and said very calmly: "You investigate me." She was suddenly a little scared, Lu Rin was the president of the dignified Lu family, and the depth of his city was beyond what an ordinary person could guess.

But when she thought about it, she seemed to have nothing to deceive except this heart.

Is this still a matter of investigation? Lu Rin glanced at her with resentment, and he didn't know who had forgotten him completely.

He was unjustly killed.

He casually lied, "I have to know the details of the people around me, in case it's a commercial espionage." ”

"Do you think I look like this?" Yao Qing's tone was still very calm, but the emotions in her eyes revealed her cramped and uneasy at the moment.

She then asked, "What else do you know?"

Her relatives died, the missing disappeared, and she was like an orphan without relatives and for no reason, but Lu Rin just replied: "No." ”

Yao Qing didn't want to be more truthful than what he said, but answered his initial question, "That was a long time ago, and I don't need to say it if you didn't ask me." ”

"Really, you've forgotten about this place?" Lu Rin seemed to be caught in a memory, and there was an imperceptible sadness in his tone.

Yao Qing seemed to be a little confused about the meaning of his words.

She deliberately escaped from this place from the bottom of her heart, this place had brought her countless joys, but often the pain was more impressive, she seemed to have put a time box in her heart, put a switch, lock all the unhappy past into the box, and wait for it to slowly decay.

She can't forget, and she can't face it, it's really pitiful.

What was it that crossed her cheeks, heh, tears, it's been a long time, such an indisputable thing.

Did she cry?

Lu Rin was both surprised and a little flustered, and stretched out his hand to comfort her, "Yao Qing?"

Tears crossed her pale cheeks like beads of broken thread, and the past that she had carefully and deliberately hidden for many years slowly emerged in her mind like slow motion, overlapping, she desperately tried to remove those memories but couldn't, she obviously felt that she had succeeded, but those memories would always occasionally jump out and disturb her peace.

In the blur, the anxious face appeared in front of him.

What's wrong with her?

Lu Rin couldn't care about her struggle anymore, and took her into his arms.

He asked in an extremely distressed tone, "What's wrong?" Yao Qing. ”

Yao Qing stared at his vague face, and only after a while did he slurred his speech and said intermittently: "Called... You... Investigate me, bully me for not having the ability, I didn't even investigate you. ”

Lu Rin knew in his heart that things were definitely not as simple as they seemed, but he pretended to be relaxed and said: "It's all my fault, you don't have to investigate me, now I report myself, I am twenty-six this year, graduated from B University, went to the United States to study for three years, the president of Lu's Group, and lives in City B," he thought for a while and teased: "I also raised a little white rabbit, stupid and stupid." ”

Who this little white rabbit is, it goes without saying.

Yao Qing burst out laughing and took a break, "You actually call me stupid or call me stupid?"

Lu Rin knew that she was whitewashing the peace, and her eyes stained with a layer of mist were painful, and both of them changed the topic knowingly.

"I'm talking about rabbits, so don't sit down. ”

"You don't have rabbits. ”

"I haven't confessed yet, I fell in love with a girl when I was in elementary school. ”

Yao Qing wiped her tears, and suddenly became interested, "You are in early love?"

Lu Rin had a complicated look in his eyes, stared at her face for a while, and then said, "To be precise, I have a secret crush, I don't know if she likes me or not." ”

How can you not like it, people like Lu Rin must have grown up handsome from childhood to adulthood, and when he was young, he was also a handsome and dignified campus male god who was haunted by thousands of girls.

"She's from the town, and did you confess? Do you know where she is?" Yao Qing gossiped and asked a series of questions.

Lu Rin's tone was slightly bitter, and it was difficult to hide the loss in his eyes, "It's from the town, we didn't have time to say goodbye at that time, and then I came back and found that she was not in the town." ”

She asked softly, tentatively, "Do you still like her now?"

Lu Rin was silent, and Yao Qing took it as his acquiescence.

She couldn't come to her senses a little, and she couldn't imagine that the invincible Lu Rin had a girl in her heart who had always been obsessed.

She tried to comfort him, "You can try to find her, no one can tell about fate, maybe you two live in the same city now? Maybe it's in an office building, and unless she has a bad brain, she will definitely remember you, after all, you are so good-looking, I tell you that I can still remember the handsome boy in my class." Yao Qing looked extremely serious.

Yes, I forgot about him, who called...

Lu Rin said a little deflated: "I've seen her, but she can't remember me, maybe it's really a broken brain." ”

Well.....

Yao Qing suddenly realized.

She carefully pondered the wording, "Lu Rin, did you say that I look very much like this girl, so you used me as a stand-in." ”

She always thought that it was because of her simplicity and simplicity, unlike the shrewd Bai Fumei in business, he and her could not be calculating, and he could call her around like a nanny, but this could not explain why he found him in the first place, there are not a few who are beautiful and simple and simple, she has self-knowledge and has the capital to make the president fall in love at first sight, could it be that turnip greens have their own love? This probability seems to be too small.

The doubts that had been lingering in my heart for a long time were finally solved.

This reason perfectly explains why he found the ordinary her in the first place.

Sometimes he is gentle with himself because she looks like that girl, and sometimes he is bad because she is not that girl.

Thinking that she was worried about whether Lu Rin loved her or not, and even asked out of her mouth, her face burned in panic.

I see, she thinks too much, but why is there a little bit of loss in her heart, just a little bit.

What does it mean to lift a stone and shoot yourself in the foot, Lu Rin finally understands it deeply.

His face became gloomy, and he only stared at Yao Qing with his eyes.

Yao Qing thought that he was poked at the center, obviously he loved someone else, but he was looking for a stand-in, and his physical derailment was also a betrayal of his loyalty to love, and continued: "It's okay, Lu Rin, I don't mind, originally the two of us were also in a relationship of money and goods, and you treat me as a relationship." Yao Qing knew that only in this way could she maintain her ridiculous and pitiful dignity.

What else is there to be like this?

That other person is her, it's she who forgot the agreement at that time.

But doesn't it matter if you treat her like someone else?

Lu Rin stared at her face carefully, trying to see a little other emotion in those eyes, but no, nothing, still so calm and unwavering.

How could she be so calm?

Lu Rin's mouth pursed into a straight line, and Yao Qing knew that this was a precursor to his anger.

God, it's changing a little too fast.

"Don't be sad, don't cry?" After a while, Lu Rin suddenly asked her such a sentence.

"No.... Don't cry anymore. She was crying so sadly in front of Lu Rin just now, and she was a little embarrassed to think about it.

"Well... All right. The corners of Lu Rin's mouth were raised in pity, his eyes swept around, swept to the cup on the side, and was about to smash it on the ground when he picked it up.

"No, that's grandma's favorite teacup. Yao Qing blocked it with his hand on his chest and stopped him in time.

The subtext is that you can't explain it when grandma comes back.

This violent maniac, she wants to curse him never to find that girl, and if she finds that girl, she doesn't like him.

Lu Rin held the cup tightly in his hand, as if he was about to crush it out of thin air, but finally put it down.

Well, now he can't even move a cup.

Lu Rin's cannibalistic expression frightened Yao Qing and just wanted to run away.

But where can she flee to?

In the end, she raised the quilt with tearful eyes, and resigned: "Otherwise, you will be blinded by me?"

In the past, Lu Rin always covered her head with a quilt when she was angry, and she couldn't cover her anyway.
