When Liu Xingchen came home and saw his father's big pullman occupying the space of two cars on the lawn, his heart immediately trembled, he didn't expect his father to come home so early today. Uncle Paul personally came out to open the door, the intention was too obvious, it was to come out to remind him that the chairman was angry. Liu Xingchen and Uncle Paul whispered as they walked into the building.

"When did my dad come back?"

"I'll be back in the morning."

"Huh?" Liu Xingchen choked in shock, and asked again after a long time: "Does my dad know about my coming home yesterday?" ”

"Yes, Madame said it all. However, Madame said that you went to see off Wu Jiao last night, and you stayed there. ”

"Huh?!" He stopped even more in astonishment and said indignantly, "How could my mother say that! ”

"Madame can't help it, because in the morning the chairman asked where you went, and Madame didn't know where you went, so she could only say that you stayed at Wu Jiao's house last night."

"Oh my God!" He tried to keep the volume as low as possible, and stood at the door of the flower hall, holding the doorknob with one hand to prevent anyone from coming out to hear, and he protested to Uncle Paul with his mouth: "I dare say my mother did it on purpose!" Old! Meaning! Target! She's bored! She wants me to marry Wu Jiao as soon as possible! Then she'll have something to do! You need to buy a lot of things to get married, right? If you have children, you need to buy a lot of things, right? Then she will have a sense of zài, because she likes to buy the most! Thing! Finish! ”

Uncle Paul's expression was flat: "Don't you want to get married?" ”

"I ......" he almost said something, and hurriedly said: "It's not that I don't want to get married, but it's my own business!" How can my mother say that I live in Wu Jiao's house! In that case, my dad must go to Wu Jiao's house to officially meet his in-laws! ”

"Isn't that sooner or later?" Uncle Paul shrugged his shoulders with feigned ease.

......Suddenly, he realized that he was overreacting.

At this time, his mother was pulling the door of the flower hall inside, he opened his hand, and his mother opened the door, saw his eyes, and immediately asked, "Son, what's wrong with your eyes?!" ”

Liu Xingchen ignored her and walked past her with a look of indignation.

His mother chased after him: "Son, son, what the hell did you get your eyes?" ”

Liu Xingchen walked into the living room, looked around, and turned around and asked, "Where is my dad?" ”

"Upstairs."

Liu Xingchen looked like he had just been sentenced to death, brushed his sleepless face, and walked up the stairs hard. When he came to the door of his father's study, he knocked on the door and heard the chairman of the board of directors say inside, "The door is not locked." ”

Liu Xingchen walked in, the father and son only looked at each other, he immediately lowered his head, the chairman of the board of directors was angry when he saw him dressed up, he wore a white terry shirt on his upper body, and a pair of linen torn pants between pajama pants and slacks, wearing a pair of straw slippers on his feet, his hair was messed up as if he was mentally ill, I didn't expect him to go to sleep at the house of his future father-in-law and mother-in-law with this image, what a shame!

The chairman's face suddenly turned blue and green, and it seemed that he was trying his best to endure the outburst*: "You slept in Wu Jiao's house last night?" ”

"Well......" At this moment, Liu Xingchen found that this excuse might be the best, because his father felt that it was shameful enough, so it was impossible for him to call to verify with his father-in-law.

"That's it?!" The chairman asked.

Liu Xingchen hurriedly explained: "Dad, listen to me, that's the case, I went out to chase Wu Jiao yesterday, and I didn't have time to change my clothes, and I said that I didn't want to enter their house, but Wu Jiao had to let me in......"

As soon as the chairman slapped the table and "snapped-", Liu Xingchen immediately shut up, just like a voice-activated switch. In the eyes of the chairman, a man with a lot of excuses is a scum who has no responsibility, and he can't imagine that his son has gone abroad for so many years, and after he comes back, he hasn't changed at all, and he is still a child! These words have been fully expressed in the angry eyes of the chairman, and Liu Xingchen understands it without looking at it. He was really wronged in his heart, but there was no way, and now, this eight-year-long lie can only continue to be made up.

After a while, the chairman said, "When are you and Wu Jiao going to get married?" ”

The problem he was most afraid of finally came, Liu Xingchen used the tolerable margin of a few seconds to think about it quickly, and couldn't think of any good excuse, so he had to push this matter to Wu Jiao, he said: "Then it's up to Wu Jiao, anyway, I don't have any opinion." ”

Unexpectedly, this sentence caused a huge dissatisfaction with the chairman, and the chairman's words almost shouted: "If you were a girl, I would have ignored these things a long time ago!" I won't even ask, you know! The marriage is actually waiting for the woman to take the initiative to say, then I ask you, do you still want to get married in this marriage! If you don't want to tie the knot, go for a job! Doing nothing all day long, who do you count on to feed you! ”

God, Liu Xingchen was almost scolded and cried, he didn't expect to be scolded for doing nothing less than half a month after returning to China, this is the only thing he feels is unfair, as for other aspects, he knows that he should be scolded, if his father would beat himself up like he did when he was a child, he doesn't have to carry a heavy sense of guilt psychologically.

The mother suddenly pushed the door open and blocked between the chairman and her son: "Oh, I haven't seen my son for a long time, can't you talk well?" Your son has only been back to China for less than two weeks, and he hasn't even adjusted his appetite yet, so you forced him to look for a job outside, and you are too ruthless. Besides, the marriage between our family and Wu Jiao's family is said in advance, and it will be done sooner or later, isn't this always making progress for their family, it was so late last night, and my son drove Wu Jiao home, which doesn't mean that I want to get married, my in-laws left him to sleep at home, because I was afraid that he would drive at night dangerously, how many years have I been reforming and opening up, is this still a thing, really, you know that there is a big fuss! ”

The chairman turned his head: "Hmph, you know how to whitewash the peace!" ”

The mother didn't care if the chairman was angry or not, and reached out to touch her son's little face: "Ouch, why are you so haggard, your eyes are so red, didn't you sleep well last night?" Isn't it particularly hot in their house? Why do they all seem to be dehydrated? She took her son's hand and said, "Let's go, mom will make you a hydrating mask, sleep well after eating later, don't go anywhere in the afternoon, watch TV with mom at home, there is a particularly good-looking program, there is a host who looks very beautiful, by the way, do you watch TV abroad......

Fortunately, the chairman's wife was so involved, otherwise Liu Xingchen would be so ashamed that he couldn't get out of that room. He was dragged into the living room by his mother, pressed against the sofa, and covered with a thick strawberry mask. He fumbled for the new key in his pocket and closed his eyes with relief, reminiscing about yesterday's night in the sweet smell of strawberries*.

He remembered that Wu Jiao mentioned Ai Mengmeng's job in the car, if the work of selling alcohol was too hard, he was willing to support her, but Ai Mengmeng definitely didn't want to be a housewife, so help her find an easy job, it doesn't matter how much money she makes, as long as she feels that her life is worthwhile. The more he thought about it, the farther he went, and he couldn't help but giggle when he thought of marrying Ai Mengmeng for his honeymoon, and the mask on his face was twisted by his laughter.

At the same time, the chairman's wife received a call from Wu Jiao in the small living room, Wu Jiao said on the phone that he left after he sent her home last night, she didn't get through to his mobile phone all night, until this morning he turned off the phone, Wu Jiao was very worried, afraid that something had happened, and couldn't help but call home to see if his uncle and aunt had contacted him.

The chairman's wife was very surprised when she heard this, she thought that her son lived with her last night, and the mother was about to ask her son how he got his eyes, whether the little two had a dry fight, but when she heard Wu Jiao say this, the chairman's wife suddenly covered her mouth and thought of another possibility in disbelief. After answering Wu Jiao's call, the chairman's wife sat in the small living room without a master and started a series of thoughts.

Is my son having an affair? No way, Wu Jiao is the girl he has been pursuing since high school. Could it be that the son went out to recruit prostitutes? No, he didn't even have his wallet with him when he went out yesterday, so it was impossible for him to go to the hotel to recruit prostitutes. Did he stay at a friend's house? He doesn't have many friends back home. Did you go to find a classmate? The chairman's wife secretly looked at Liu Xingchen on the sofa, the child fell asleep as soon as he lay down, it seemed that he hadn't slept all night, his little face was thin, his eyes were picked, and his body was full of smoke...... There are signs that my son didn't do well last night. The chairman's wife kept an eye on her, and she didn't show any curiosity at all during lunch, and she didn't mention Wu Jiao's call.

After Wu Jiao put down the phone, she felt that the reaction of the chairman's wife on the phone was a little strange, but she couldn't say anything strange. While she was meditating, a string of unfamiliar numbers flashed on the screen of her phone, and she picked it up and heard a familiar male voice: "Hey? Wu Jiao! Is that you? I'm Cui Xiaokai! ”

It turned out to be an energetic little rocket, Wu Jiao couldn't help but think of the farce that happened in school back then, those things seemed to hurt him the most, and even affected his personal development, I didn't expect him to be able to change his phone number, and he could actually take the initiative to contact her, Wu Jiao felt excited: "Yes, I'm Wu Jiao!" Did you really call? ”

"Yes, I asked for your mobile phone number from Chang Huaizhi, and we are colleagues now, haha. Where are you now, can you come out for dinner? ”

"I'm at home, I'm a little far from home."

"I know where your home is, and I've been driving there every year since you went abroad."

Wu Jiao was surprised: "Huh? Are you sure? Why? ”

"Because...... I've liked you! Although there are many girls I like, only you have rejected me! Ha ha! ”

Wu Jiao smiled and made a little joke: "Don't you give up?" ”

Cui Xiaokai suddenly burst out laughing: "Haha! I'm dying! Anyway, I'm also about to get married now, and I just want to see you and talk to you! Nothing else! ”

Wu Jiao covered her mouth and laughed: "Hehehe...... So I congratulate you, what does a girlfriend do? ”

"It's a teacher."

"And you're a colleague? Also in Kikuri? ”

"That's right. But we are not in a department, she teaches mathematics. ”

"By the way, what class do you teach?"

"I teach...... I'm a counselor, and I specialize in counseling psychology classes for students, which is very tiring! ”

"yes, hehehe, I can't imagine what it's like to be busy with your work."

"Do you mean to sarcastically not do my job?"

"No, it's not ......"

"Alright, I know what virtue I am in your eyes! I'll pick you up! Let's go out and talk! That's right...... Is that guy Liu Xingchen next to him, or call him too? ”

When Wu Jiao thought of that person, she suddenly felt a little lonely in her heart, and hurriedly said: "He's jet lag, don't call him." ”

"That's good! To be honest, I really don't want to invite him! It's just the best of both of us! You wait for me, I'll be at your house in about an hour, you get dressed and wait for me! ”

"Hey, slow down!"

"It's okay, I've run more than ten times on your road!"

Wu Jiao heard the sound of the phone reeling in the phone, this Cui Xiaokai is still so hot and passionate, it feels like nothing has changed, the last time I met him on the street, I thought he was really not available, Wu Jiao guessed that he should have seen Xingchen next to him before he got out of the car. Today, he may have taken the initiative to invite guests out of the good feeling he had in high school, just now I heard that he was going to get married, Wu Jiao felt a little uncomfortable, even Cui Xiaokai was going to get married, and he was pregnant, and he still had nothing to do, which seemed a little sad.

Wu Jiao didn't dare to think about it anymore, because she had been thinking about it all night, what if the senior didn't want her, what if the family knew that she was pregnant, what if she couldn't even find a job, what if the child couldn't be saved...... She even thought of jumping to the big river on the west side of the town, and then she suddenly woke up from that terrible dead end, which may be all kinds of pregnant women's thoughts, anyway, the future in-laws have already passed the guò, in this country, the concept of marriage and parents in charge will still work subtly, and she doesn't believe that the senior will be so irresponsible.

An hour later, Wu Jiao sat in Cui Xiaokai's car, and amazingly, when she saw Cui Xiaokai for the first time, she couldn't help but lie on the car door and cry. Cui Xiaokai was stupid at that time. He pulled over slowly, parked under the shade of a tree, and watched Wu Jiao cry. After Wu Jiao finished crying, she wiped her tears, and then smiled and said to him, "It's not a big deal, let's go?" ”

Cui Xiaokai puffed out his cheeks, saying that this was a challenge to normal people's understanding, he didn't say anything, stepped on the accelerator, and the car flew out. Wu Jiao happily raised her hands, letting the air passing through the windshield shuttle through the gap like a fish between her fingers.

Her screams on the highway frightened the owners of the cars next to her into slowing down, making them look like they were speeding up and flying. Cui Xiaokai still remembers that once he drove her to the movies, she is the kind of girl who doesn't understand Fast and Furious, I don't know why she is like this now, can seven years turn a person into two people? Cui Xiaokai turned his face to look at her from time to time, then looked at her, and then scratched the back of his head vigorously, confused and happy.
