Chapter 11: Father-Daughter Talk
i.
Xiao Jixi just walked into the bathroom and was about to wash up, Shao Yi walked out of the living room, and the moment he opened the door, he saw Jian Hao standing outside the door, his left hand stopped in mid-air, he should be about to knock on the door.
Looking at each other, the two were stunned, Jian Hao swept a bathrobe, Shao Yi, who had messy hair, glanced at him, and said, "...... Brother Yi? ”
Shao Yi was very embarrassed, what would a person think when he appeared in a girl's hotel room with such a look early in the morning. But what Shao Yi didn't expect was that in the next second, a middle-aged man walked out of Jian Hao's side and stood in front of him.
Xiao Yuanshan glanced at Shao Yi a few times, frowned, and said, "May I ask who you are?" ”
"Uh, I...... You're here to find Xiao Xi," Shao Yi didn't know what to do, so he turned around and shouted to Xiao Jixi, "Xiao Xi, someone is looking for you." ”
Xiao Jixi walked out when she heard the sound, holding a toothbrush in one hand and toothpaste in the other, after seeing the three people standing at the door, she was stunned, and her eyes finally fell on Xiao Yuanshan's face. She said lightly: "What are you doing here?" ”
Xiao Yuanshan glanced at Shao Yi and said, "Who is this?" ”
Xiao Jixi also glanced at Shao Yi and said, "My boyfriend, Shao Yi." ”
The remaining three people were stunned, Jian Hao seemed to be smiling behind him, and Shao Yi's whole face turned white. Xiao Jixi then turned to Shao Yi and said, "This is my dad." ”
The scene was very embarrassing, the three of them were motionless, only Xiao Jixi looked calm, and he really responded to the sentence "serious nonsense". But what can Shao Yi say, dressed like this in the morning and stayed in a hotel room with a girl, and denied that it was her boyfriend in front of her father, it was strange that her father didn't beat him to death!
Shao Yi smiled hard and said, "Hello uncle, I'm Shao Yi." ”
Xiao Yuanshan looked at him carefully, and there seemed to be displeasure in his eyes. The first time I met my parents, I used this kind of scene, and no parent would be too happy. He greeted Shao Yi briefly: "Hello." Then he said to Xiao Jixi, "Xiaoxi, Shao Yi accompanied you to Paris, why don't you invite you to sit at home." ”
Jian Hao noticed the quilt on the sofa, and added behind him: "Xiaoxi, why is there a quilt on the sofa, you won't let Shao Yi sleep here, right?" ”
Xiao Jixi was slightly stunned, and then replied: "No, we built it when we were watching TV in the living room." ”
Xiao Yuanshan quickly said to her: "Xiaoxi, my father came to you today to talk to you alone.
He would come to her, and she expected it, but she didn't expect it to be in front of Shao Yi. Early in the morning, the person she was chasing saw her father coming to the door, and her relationship with her father was so on thin ice, and her mood was not much better. Xiao Jixi opened his mouth and said, "Then you go downstairs to the restaurant and wait for me, after I wash up, I will go down to find you." ”
"Okay." Xiao Yuanshan said and slowly turned sideways to leave, and glanced at Shao Yi when he turned around.
"Uncle walks slowly." Shao Yi said quickly, smiling politely at Xiao Yuanshan.
After the two of them left, Xiao Jixi's face was not very good, and he said to Shao Yi stupidly: "It's really embarrassing, I let you see this kind of scene in the morning, you don't think I'm a bad girl who was caught by my father and brought home, right?" ”
Shao Yi seemed to have pity in her eyes, looking at this scene, she should still be unable to let go of her father. He didn't want to puncture, so he said, "I'll go first, you and your father have a good talk, what's the matter...... You can come to me. ”
Joy appeared in her eyes, Shao Yi raised the corners of his mouth slightly at her, and then turned around and left the room. Xiao Jixi took a deep breath before re-entering the bathroom.
Her movements have always been neat, in less than ten minutes, she has already washed and changed her clothes, and her makeup has been painted delicately and decently. Picking up his bag and walking out of the door, he paused as he passed 506 before continuing on.
Xiao Yuanshan sat alone in the VIP double seat, and after Xiao Jixi sat down, the waiter pulled down the curtain for them. There were a few delicate dishes on the table, he had brought her to Paris before, and she casually said that a few dishes were delicious during the meal, and now there are exactly those dishes on the table in front of her.
Xiao Yuanshan was the first to speak: "Dad remembered that you liked these dishes before, so I ordered them for you first, and I don't know if this restaurant is good or not." ”
Xiao Jixi sat very upright, there was no emotion on his face, and said lightly: "I don't like these dishes anymore." ”
Xiao Yuanshan was a little disappointed, and said, "Then why don't you change the dishes, you used to like to eat, and Dad didn't know that you had changed your taste." ”
Her voice was indifferent: "Yes, you only know what I liked before, and I like it now, but I don't know it anymore." ”
Xiao Yuanshan pursed his lips and was speechless for a while. Xiao Jixi quickly continued: "No need to change, just eat these, it's just a breakfast, I still have things to do after eating." ”
Xiao Yuanshan looked at her carefully and asked, "That Shao Yi, what does he do?" ”
"Actor."
"What is he worth now? Do you know who you are? You see, people should pay attention, don't let some people with ulterior motives delay you......"
"I'll pay attention to this kind of thing myself." Her voice was so calm that there was no wave.
After Xiao Jixi finished speaking, Xiao Yuanshan's eyes drooped slightly, and he suddenly fell silent. She has been very clingy to him since she was a child, and today, she has reached the point of being speechless. After a while, Xiao Yuanshan sighed and said in a deep voice: "Xiaoxi, I know you hate your father......"
"You're my dad, I won't hate you." Xiao Jixi picked it up quickly. It's just that I don't hate, but there is no explanation.
He was silent for a moment before he said, "About Aunt Jane, your mother should have told you that Dad knew your mother a long time ago......"
"I don't know." She interrupted him coldly. Regarding Jian Lanxin's qiē, Ji Min told her, he never gave her any explanation, until the day he was going to leave her, he just said sorry briefly, packed his bags, and left resolutely.
"Xiaoxi, let you out of such a family, Dad is sorry, Dad...... There is no other option. After Xiao Yuanshan finished speaking, he paused, and his voice became heavier, "Aunt Jane, she ...... She had cancer, and her father had been taking her to the doctor for several years, and she didn't get better until the beginning of this year. Xiaoxi, Aunt Jane has been very bitter all her life, I hope you can understand Dad and forgive Dad ......"
Xiao Ji Xili said on the ground: "You don't seem to have done anything wrong, you have been protecting the people you love all your life." You love your grandmother and obey the marriage she arranged, you love Jian Lanxin, and you categorically returned to her after her grandmother's death...... You just choose to sacrifice someone you don't love, because you don't care in the first place, like Mom, like me......"
"Nozomi!" Xiao Yuanshan stopped her sharply, "How could Dad not love you!" ”
"Really? Do you remember, when was the last time you saw me? When was the last time you spoke to me? Her cold voice fell, and he was speechless.
"This time I came to Paris, I also saw the person I should see, and there will be someone to do my filial piety to you for me in the future, I hope you will take care of yourself in the future, I am also here to promise, I will live well, you don't have to worry." Xiao Jixi was about to get up as he spoke.
"Nozomi!" Xiao Yuanshan nervously stopped her, his eyes were a little red, and said, "This qiē is all Dad's fault, but you must know that Dad will always love your ......."
Xiao Jixi tightened the bag in his hand, looked at him sideways, and said, "I booked a flight back to China tonight, you take good care of yourself and take care." ”
After speaking, she strode out of the seat, Xiao Yuanshan got up behind her and lifted the curtain, stretched out his hand to her, but silently stopped in mid-air. Xiao Jixi straightened his waist and walked forward, as if this was the only way to avoid making himself look wolf.
ii.
Xiao Jixi returned to the fifth floor, and when he was about to walk to the door of 506, the door just opened, and Shao Yi walked out. Xiao Jixi looked up, he had changed into a retro gentleman's fashion, with Fendi's autumn/winter collection of exquisite shoes, both mature and fresh.
Seeing that Xiao Jixi's face was not very good, Shao Yi took the lead and said, "You're back so soon?" ”
Xiao Jixi was calm and calm, and his voice was full of vitality: "Yes, go to see Fendi's show today?" ”
"Well, are you still going today?"
"If you don't have a show card, you won't be able to go, wait and go shopping, and see you at the airport tonight."
Shao Yi hesitated for a moment, and then said, "We'll leave here at half past five tonight, and if you don't have a car, you can come with us." There's also a catwalk waiting for you, so come in with me if you want to go. ”
Xiao Jixi raised the corners of his mouth and smiled, and said, "No need, thank you." ”
After speaking, she bowed slightly, bypassed Shao Yi's side, brushed open the door and walked in.
Until the sound of the door being closed again, Shao Yi still stood motionless. He hesitated for a moment, then slowly turned and walked to the door of her room, only to hear a cry of grief coming from inside.
Shao Yi frowned, knocked on the door twice, and called her at the same time: "Xiaoxi, Xiaoxi!" ”
The crying inside stopped abruptly, and he heard her trying to calm herself and said to him, "I'm fine, you can go." ”
He continued to knock on the door and said, "Xiaoxi, open the door and come with me to watch the show." ”
There was no quick reaction inside, he knocked on the door twice, and Xiao Jixi responded: "No need, it's really fine, you just let me stay by myself for a while, you can go." ”
He silently put his hand down and said, "Okay, I'll go first, you be careful." ”
After saying that, he stood motionless, and after about half a minute, he heard the heart-rending cry from inside again, and his heart tightened, and he was faintly uneasy.
"I'll do it."
A thick male voice suddenly sounded behind him, Shao Yi turned around, it was Xiao Yuanshan. His eyes were red, and he slowly walked to the door of 507, knocked on the door twice forcefully, and shouted, "Xiaoxi, it's Dad." ”
The crying inside stopped again.
After a long time, Xiao Jixi came to open the door, and she reappeared in the door, she had already wiped away her tears, made up her base makeup, her facial features were delicate and sharp, and her eyes were bright and bright, just like the aggrieved and poor little girl just now.
Seeing that Shao Yi was still there, she widened her eyes slightly, but quickly looked at Xiao Yuanshan again and said coldly, "Is there anything else?" ”
Xiao Yuanshan didn't speak quickly, he looked at her with a very painful expression. Seeing that she didn't mean to give way, Shao Yi on the side spoke: "Xiaoxi, let your uncle go in and talk well." ”
Xiao Jixi was stunned for a moment, then turned sideways and got out of the way, Xiao Yuanshan walked in silently, Shao Yi stood at the door, Xiao Jixi said to him: "Thank you, you go and get busy first, I will take care of my own affairs." ”
Shao Yi nodded, but Xiao Yuanshan behind him said, "Shao Yi can rest in the bedroom, where do you let him go in the morning." ”
"He's not my boyfriend," Xiao Ji Xili said on the ground, and the other two were stunned, "I lied to you, I fainted on the balcony when I was drunk last night, and he found someone to open the door and move me in." ”
Xiao Yuanshan glanced at Shao Yi before saying, "So that's the case, thank you for taking care of Xiaoxi." ”
Shao Yi smiled slightly, bowed his head, and said to Xiao Jixi: "Then I'll go first, if you have anything to say, talk to your father." ”
She pursed her lips and remained silent.
