In the early hours of the morning, the TWA lounge of JFK Airport is like a big concrete bird, showing a posture of fluttering wings with romantic and graceful curves. The red chairs and floors inside made Qu Shulei's heart even more anxious.

She leaned on Fu Yuanshan's shoulder, a little tired. Fu Yuanshan said: "We are going to get on the plane and return to China soon, you should be in a better mood." ”

"Let's go back and tell our parents about getting married."

"This, won't it be too urgent, I think you better arrange the work first, and then we will talk about marriage."

Shulei stood up upright, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Don't you want to marry me as soon as possible?" I've been fighting for so many years, and I've finally seen the moon, so what's there to think about. ”

Yuanshan didn't know how to respond, and looked at Shulei's somewhat impatient actions, and sighed in his heart. "It's not that I don't want to get married so early, it's just that I think that since we are both in China, this is a matter of course, and there is no need to be in such a hurry."

In fact, Yuanshan wanted to say in his heart: "We have been separated from each other for so long, and we should adapt to it for a while, so that the days to come will last for a long time." "But it doesn't seem to be in a good state right now, and if you say that, they might be noisy at the airport.

I don't know when their relationship became tense overnight. Love and marriage are really two different things, as long as one thing has a commitment and a contract, everything that seems to be easy to prepare can become complicated and cumbersome in an instant.

Shulei said: "I don't like to wait, I've been waiting for seven years, I don't want to give up my work because I wait another month or two, I don't feel safe, I need everyone to witness the promise you gave me, love me for the rest of my life, and never give up." ”

"Since you are so decisive, I will listen to you, you pick a time." Thinking that Chinese-style marriage is not so simple, it is enough to toss for a while if you need to choose a location, choose a wedding dress, write invitations, and install a new house.

Just as he was deep in thought, the phone rang, and when he saw this familiar call, he felt a pang of worry in his heart. He hung up the phone immediately.

"Who? Why don't you pick it up. ”

"A colleague from the company called, I don't want to pick it up, I'll talk about it when I return home, now I just want to wait quietly with you for the plane."

After a while, the same number came again. Yuanshan hung it up again and turned off the phone.

Seeing Yuanshan like this, Shulei just wanted to accompany her regardless of the company's urgency, and felt much more relieved than just now. She continued to lean on his shoulder.

Passengers flying to Shanghai are requested to board now...... A boarding announcement came over the radio.

Shu Tao on the other side of the world had dinner with her parents today, they sat around the big round table, and Qu's mother said, "Hey, great, great, I can see my baby daughter tomorrow." ”

"Mom, did you commit Alzheimer's disease in advance, didn't your daughter sit opposite you?"

"Who said you? Self-inflicted, I'm talking about Shulei coming back! ”

"Huh?" Father and daughter exclaimed in surprise at the same time.

Father Qu said, "Why don't you tell me?" She's on vacation? ”

Qu's mother was a little embarrassed and said, "Hey, there is no holiday, Shulei has taken a leave of absence." ”

When Father Qu heard this, his expression was solemn, as if he was a little angry. He said, "What a non-fuel-efficient lamp!" She's the most worrying, okay, what's the suspension? ”

"They're back to help you recruit horses!" Qu Mu said with a smile.

"What kind of pony?" Father Qu looked puzzled.

Qu's mother frowned and said, "You work outside all day, you don't even care about your daughter's affairs, of course you are getting married when you come back!" ”

Shu Tao had heard her sister say this, but how could her mother be so supportive after she knew, so she thought that Shulei had finally surrendered, and it was not Fu Yuanshan who came back to marry, but the golden beetle son-in-law hand-picked by her mother, so she asked, "Who to marry?" ”

"Fu Yuanshan!" Qu's mother deliberately raised her voice.

Father Qu was puzzled at this time, and with a hundred question marks in his mind, he asked, "Didn't you disagree before?" Don't dislike people being poor now? ”

"Don't talk so ugly, at least people's parents are also working-class, how to describe it as poor!" Qu Mu retorted.

Father Qu smiled sarcastically and said, "Who said it before, no matter how good the other party's family is in Shanghai, they are all poor compared to our family!" ”

"These are all angry words that were said before, don't take it seriously!" Qu's mother said, but there was suffering in her heart, fortunately, Shutao was so well-behaved, and she loved vanity and luxury so much on weekdays, and she could only hand over this task to her, she smiled and said to Shutao: "Mom depends on you, when will you marry a good family." ”

Shu Tao was stunned for a moment and said coldly: "What does this have to do with me!" Besides, you said that no family is a good family compared to my family, if it is according to your standards, how can I get married! I told you a long time ago, let me be self-reliant, maybe I can lower my figure, you look at now, I live in your mansion, which man dares to enter the house? ”

Father Qu turned to Shutao and said, "Why are you here again?" I want to be independent and self-reliant! You're going to run the gallery for me. ”

"Speaking of the gallery, I have something to tell you, I want to hold a group exhibition of young painters, and put some paintings of young painters in the Taolei Art Gallery, so that people from all walks of life can participate in it and obtain paintings with higher collection value at a lower cost."

Shulei also used the story of "The Ladies in the Garden" told to her by Lixuan as an argument, and told it to her father in general.

Her father thought for a while, thought for a while, and said, "Well, I think it's good, and the ideas are new, but how do you put the positions of those old artists, and you have to take care of their faces when doing things." ”

"Dad! I should be measured in this, if you can rest assured of me, let me be fully responsible for this matter. She turned to her mother and winked, "You said yes, Mom." ”

Qu's mother didn't know how to pick up the stubble, so she responded casually: "You just let your daughter do it, her daughter has grown up." ”

Shutao made a grimace and said, "Dad, can you give me 2 million?" ”

"Huh? Why do you spend so much money to make an exhibition? Father Qu was a little displeased.

"Who told me about doing business when I was a child, and I couldn't bear to let the children be wolves! Now it's so conservative, it's really saying one thing and doing another! Words don't count. ”

"Everything should be said for a reason...... Then you should tell me, how do you use the 2 million, you have to give me a financial statement or something, don't you use this money to buy clothes! You've got enough clothes! ”

Shutao thought for a moment, and she said, "Okay, I'll submit the plan to you within this week." Shutao thought for a moment and said, "Dad, I still want to ask you for a favor." ”

"What's the matter?"

"A friend of mine is looking for a job and I want her to work in your office."

Before Father Qu could speak, Mother Qu asked nervously, "What friend!" Male or female? ”

Shutao glanced at her mother and said, "Girl, look at your nervous ......"

"I thought you were looking for some unworthy boyfriend!" Qu Mu said.

Father Qu interrupted Mother Qu and took Shutao's words: "Then I'll ask Secretary Wang to arrange this matter." ”

Everything has to be arranged by Secretary Wang, Shu Tao is angry in his heart!

Shu Tao was coquettish: "Dad, why don't you let my friend be your secretary?" ”

Father Qu shook his head and said, "Do you think that anyone who wants to do the position of secretary can do it?" Especially for newcomers, if you don't have work experience, it's really a mess for me! Before I hired Secretary Wang, I had already changed three or four! ”

Shu Tao said as soon as he moved: "Why don't you let my friend learn from Secretary Wang first, and then replace her when I learn well?" ”

"Shutao, be a man and do things with affection, Secretary Wang has been with me for four or five years, I can't say that I can change it, if it is you, are you willing to be replaced for no reason?"

Shu Tao sighed, thinking that if this junior succeeds one day, won't my mother be replaced like this for no reason? No way! She must let Li Wen get close to them and get accurate information, so she can rest assured, she retreated and asked: "Then let my friend go to the secretary's office to do things, I really want to help her build a platform, so that with you, at least the people you will contact will be more upscale." ”

"What kind of friend makes my daughter so heartbroken?" Father Qu asked.

"It's a very good friend, don't talk about it! It was decided, I asked a friend to see the works of a few young artists, and I went first! With that, she got up and left.

"Hey, look at it, our kid has grown up and knows how to do things." Mother Qu praised Shu Tao as if protectively.

Father Qu said: "It's getting harder and harder to manage!" ”

After more than a dozen hours of flight, the United Airlines plane finally landed at Pudong Airport. After picking up the luggage and going through the customs clearance procedures, Qu Shulei and Fu Yuanshan walked out of the airport. As soon as I arrived at the airport hall, I heard a woman calling: "Far Mountain, Far Mountain!" ”

Fu Yuanshan turned his head to look, and his heart began to get nervous.

Qu Shulei saw this woman five meters away from them approaching and asked, "Who is she?" ”

Yuan Shan didn't know how to answer: "She is ......"
