Chapter 7: Life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills (II)
Sending Ma Fang away, Lin Xi turned back to the living room and sat for a while, looked at Lin Shu who had not woken up from a hangover, sighed helplessly, got up and went back to the bedroom to continue to make up for sleep.
I slept directly through the noon meal, and when I woke up, it was already more than four o'clock in the afternoon.
Probably because he was already too hungry, Lin Xi didn't feel too hungry when he got up, but when he opened the door, he smelled the aroma of food, and his stomach immediately rumbled.
Lin Xi's nose twitched twice, and he could tell that it was the smell of this roast goose rice, but before he could carefully search for the source of the fragrance, a voice sounded coldly.
"Stinky boy, where did you fool around last night?"
Lin Shu sat on the rattan rocking chair in the living room with Erlang's legs crossed, holding a toothpick in his mouth, and looked Lin Xi up and down, seeing that this kid was stunned and didn't react, he had to put his mouth on the coffee table next to him.
"This is Zhouji's roast goose rice, eat it while it's hot."
Lin Xi stood still and didn't move.
Although he received all the original memories of this body, when he really faced Lin Shu, Lin Xi was still a little "weak-hearted", for fear that his Lao Tzu would see something, but he didn't think that his actions would annoy Lin Shu.
As soon as he thought of his son who was not worry-free, Lin Shuqi didn't fight anywhere, and his voice couldn't help but raise a few points: "What, I can't look at it?" You old bean I owe a lot of debt to others now, it's good to be able to buy you such fast food, what else do you want? ”
Surprisingly, Lin Xi just said "um", walked to the sofa and sat down, picked up the lunch box and ate it.
It could be seen that he was really hungry, and the wolf-eating appearance made Lin Shu angry and funny.
"Eat slowly, and no one will rob you!"
Lin Xi chewed the food in his mouth, answered vaguely, lowered his head and continued to eat his own way.
"Stinky boy!"
Lin Shu shook his head helplessly, stood up and went to the kitchen to pour a glass of water and put it in front of Lin Xi.
As soon as he put it down, Lin Xi immediately dropped the lunch box and grabbed it, regardless of the thirty-seven twenty-one, he poured it down.
"Choking, huh? Let you eat slowly and don't listen. ”
Lin Shu snorted angrily, sat down in the rocking chair again, and no longer paid attention to Lin Xi's side.
Lin Xi poured a big mouthful of water, finally swallowed the food stuck in his throat, and after relieving himself, he breathed a long sigh of relief, picked up the lunch box and was about to continue eating, when he suddenly realized that this was a good time to talk to Lin Shu about it.
"Uncle Ma came to ...... this morning"
Lin Xi cautiously tried to say a word, thinking that Lin Shu would continue to ask him what Ma Fangqi was doing, but he didn't expect Lin Shu to just hum after hearing it, and then there was no response.
In desperation, Lin Xi had no choice but to provoke the conversation: "Uncle Ma asked about your new book, I showed him the manuscript, and he said yes, as long as it is written according to this progress, there will be no problem with publishing." ”
Lin Shu was lying on the rocking chair, his mind was not here for a long time, and when he heard this, he just hummed, and then after thinking about it, he realized that something was wrong.
What manuscript, how do you not know?
Lin Shu turned his head in surprise, stared at Lin Xi and said, "Repeat what you just said again!" ”
"I said that Uncle Ma read the manuscript I gave him, and said that it was very good, and he was ready to ......"
"Wait a minute!" Lin Shu raised his hand and interrupted Lin Xi, "What manuscript, what manuscript did you show to Ma Fangxi?" ”
Lin Xi put aside the lunch box, got up and took out the manuscript he had written all night last night from the study, and handed it to Lin Shu.
"It's a story I came up with on my own......"
Lin Xi's first sentence had already made Lin Shu "thunder" a lot, this kid didn't graduate from middle school, and he was ashamed to say that he had written a novel, and he showed it to an expert like Ma Fangxi.
Lin Shu's first reaction after hearing this sentence was: This time my face is too big!
Before Lin Shu could completely recover from his stunnedness, Lin Xi then came up again: "When I gave it to Uncle Ma, I said that you wrote it." ”
"What did you say?!" Lin Shu's hand shook, his body stood up from the rocking chair, pointed at Lin Xi and scolded: "Stinky boy, it's against you, you dare to use my name to deceive!" ”
Lin Xi had expected Lin Shu to have such a reaction, and continued to eat with his head down, as if he didn't take Lin Shu's words seriously at all.
"You...... You! Lin Shu was confused, pointed at Lin Shu with one hand on his waist and the other at him, and was directly speechless.
"Yes, I'm using your name to trick me, but do you know why I did it?" Lin Xi raised his head and looked at Lin Shu, with an indescribable calmness in his eyes, as if he was telling a very ordinary thing.
"Bastard!" Lin Shu was so angry that he grabbed the water cup in front of him and slammed it on the ground.
Lin Xi just pursed his lips lightly, and continued to pose as a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water, and even squeezed Lin Shu with his eyes: You smash it, keep smashing it, anyway, I don't care!
Lin Shu was really annoyed by Lin Xi, and turned his head left and right to find an object that could be smashed continuously.
At this time, a glass ashtray was handed to him, and Lin Shu took it without thinking about it and was about to smash it on the ground, but when he raised his eyes, he saw Lin Xi's playful ridicule, and his movements suddenly stopped.
Although there has been a lack of communication with Lin Xi over the years, he knows very well what kind of sex his son is, although this kid was rebellious before, he was always a little afraid of himself, but now this kid doesn't know what medicine he has taken wrong, and he is not scared at all in the face of himself.
And his reaction today, from head to toe, there was a strange feeling.
Lin Shu's eyes rolled, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong.
"Ma Fangqi taught you to do this?"
Lin Shu, who calmed down, immediately pointed the object of suspicion at Ma Fangji, but he didn't realize that this was actually the result of Lin Xi's directing.
Lin Xi replied happily: "Uncle Ma didn't teach me anything, these are my own ideas." ”
"Your own idea?" Lin Shu snorted coldly, and it was clear in his tone that he didn't believe it.
"I know you don't believe it, but I'm serious." Lin Xi took the ashtray from Lin Shu's hand and threw it on the coffee table, "I used to be ignorant, but after this while, I suddenly understood a truth, in Hong Kong, no matter how famous you are and how amazing things you have done, you are nothing without money!" ”
The corners of Lin Shu's eyes twitched, and his face became more and more gloomy, but he didn't interrupt Lin Xi's words again.
"Just yesterday, I went to the restaurant where you used to take me to dinner, and I was almost sent to the police station because I forgot to bring my wallet and couldn't pay for it, I called home at that time, but no one answered, what were you doing at that time? You're drunk! ”
After listening to Lin Xi's words full of grievances, Lin Shu suddenly felt that his reaction just now was a little too impulsive.
Lin Xi didn't give Lin Shu a chance to self-examine, and continued: "Of course I'm lucky, I met an acquaintance of yours when I checked out, and he actually took the initiative to help me pay the bill after recognizing that I was your son, but I refused, the reason was that I didn't want others to laugh at you because of me, so I washed the dishes in the kitchen of the restaurant for a whole night, and finally because I met a friend, he borrowed a sum of money to make up for the food money he owed, otherwise you wouldn't be sitting here leisurely today, Thinking about where to continue to get drunk tonight, he went to the restaurant with a gloomy face to ransom me out. ”
"Ni Yu!"
Lin Shu silently recited this name viciously in his heart, feeling a little more guilty in his heart, and his gaze at Lin Xi softened a lot.
"At that time, Ni Yu also brought his son to eat together, and at that time I was thinking, why can't my father be like him, why do I have to suffer so much white eyes and ridicule? Why? ”
Lin Xi stared at Lin Shu with red eyes, at this moment he himself was infected by this disguised love, and at the same time he couldn't help but think in his heart, it seems that he is indeed very talented as an actor.
"So you're using this thing to trick Ma Fangji?"
Lin Shu's tone was no longer angry, but it had a slight coldness. Lin Xi's words certainly touched him a lot, but some of the bottom limits in his heart were not so easy to break through.
"Do you think Uncle Ma is such a deceitful person?" The corners of Lin Xi's mouth twitched, "Maybe you should take a look at what I wrote first, and then make a conclusion!" ”
