CHAPTER XXIII. 5
Song Li didn't know how to tell his mother about his feelings, and his mother knew that he quit his job in the design office, but he didn't speak, she knew that Song Li was uncomfortable, but then suddenly he didn't go to work in the mall, and slept until nine o'clock on Monday morning, and he couldn't help but have something to nag a few words.
But Song Li's worries were all seen by Chen Xi, Chen Xi picked up Song Li and went to the mall at three o'clock in the afternoon, he didn't buy anything for himself, nor did he buy anything for Song Li, and Song Li stood in front of the cash register when he checked out, "What are you doing?" ”
Chen Xi raised his eyebrows, "When I see my mother-in-law, I can't be empty-handed." ”
Song Li's face turned red, and before she could say a word, the people around her who were queuing up to check out laughed, and she stubbornly got out of the way, thinking that she would find a place with fewer people to have a good chat with him.
"It's not the New Year's holiday, why are you buying so many things?!" Song Li got into the car and began to bomb indiscriminately.
"Who said that seeing my mother-in-law must be a New Year's holiday, this is the first time I have officially come to the door, and I must make enough face." Chen Xi said seriously.
"What mother-in-law, don't talk nonsense." Song Li was angry and ashamed.
"Why isn't it my mother-in-law, let me tell you, I'm just going to get married, I don't want to have fun, I'm 26 years old, and I'm considered an older unmarried young man, I don't want to wait until I'm in my thirties to find a random woman to marry, besides, your mother doesn't also urge you to find a partner, if you don't tell your mother about the two of us, then I'll say it myself." Chen Xi's temper came up again.
"It's not that I don't say it, it's just that I don't think it's time yet, I ······" Song Li explained, but was interrupted by Chen Xi again.
"What's not the time, I don't know you yet, you just don't trust me too much, okay, don't talk nonsense to you, let's go, it's past five o'clock!" Chen Xi waved his hand and asked the driver to drive.
Mom was stunned for a moment when she saw Chen Xi at first, and then saw that Song Li on the side didn't speak, so she acquiesced. After Chen Xi was busy with one foot in the kitchen, Song Li and his mother were frightened, the dishes were finally served, Song Li sat down with Chen Xi in his arms, and the three of them were finally able to stop eating and talking for a while.
"Auntie, my name is Chen Xi, and you have seen me." Chen Xi smiled.
"I've seen it, Song Li was in the hospital for a while, thanks to you for taking care of him." Mom smiled.
"Mom." Song Li didn't want to mention anything about Ran Changan in front of people, even if it was his former vulnerability.
Mom smiled, and then said, "Song Li rarely brings boyfriend friends to the house, and the ones who came the most in the past were Qu Ran and Xiao Mo, what's the matter, Song Li, don't introduce me to my mother." ”
Song Li lowered his head, blushing a little, looked at his mother for a while and said with a smile, "Mom, this is my boyfriend, Chen Xi." ”
This may be the most beautiful memory of Song Li that Chen Xi can remember, she blushed and told her mother that he was her boyfriend. At that time, the love had no purpose, it was simply that he loved her.
Song Li's mother suddenly smiled, she looked at her daughter, then at Chen Xi, and then asked, "It's decided?" ”
Song Li was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Hmm." ”
"Auntie, I'm going to marry her." Chen Xi said loudly.
Song Li and his mother were startled, Song Li touched his elbow, and his mother smiled for a while, "I've always been worried about what to do if she doesn't have a partner, it's not the time to be seventeen, eighteen or nineteen years old, find a little boyfriend, the two of them are talking and playing, they are both 26 big girls, and they are still like a child in front of me, I still think when she will grow up." Chen Xi, Auntie doesn't mean anything else, I'm just such a girl, since you have known her for a long time, you must know a little bit about her, Auntie doesn't want to lie to you, I don't want you to have any estrangement in the future because of these things, she was expelled from college and is still in the detention center······" Mother suddenly talked about Song Li's past, which made Song Li inexplicably sad, not because he was young and ignorant, but why in the end it was his mother who loved him the most.
"Auntie," Chen Xi suddenly interrupted Song Li's mother's words, "I know, I know." He smiled, and then continued, "I'm sorry, I couldn't stay by her side when she was in the most difficult time, even if it was for her, but Auntie, the more this is the case, the more I love Song Li." I know what kind of girl she is, and I will be good to her, and I will always be good to her. ”
Song Li silently wiped away the tears that fell from his anger, and then tried to squeeze out some smiles and said, "Why are you talking about this, it's all fine." ”
"Song Li, since you have thought about it, let's talk about it, since people are sincere to you, then you have to be sincere to others, although we have no money, we also have to compare our hearts with our hearts, my mother can't accompany you for a lifetime, there must be someone to take care of you in the future, and I can rest assured." Mom held Song Li's hand and said.
"Oh, Mom, why are you suddenly saying this, you are really, why don't you do anything, just talk about this, and let people not eat······" Song Li said but still couldn't hold back, lowered his head and cried.
Chen Xi stretched out his hand to wipe away Song Li's tears, and then said, "Don't cry, I'm crying so much that my makeup is spent." ”
Song Li burst into tears and laughed, slapped Chen Xi's hand away, and the three of them looked at each other and laughed.
After dinner, his mother urged Chen Xitian to go back early, and Song Li put on his coat and accompanied him to the gate of the family courtyard.
"Look at you, you didn't let me come at first, you see how much your mother likes me." Chen Xi pouted.
Song Li lowered his head a little embarrassed, and then said, "Who knew that you would please my mother so much!" ”
Chen Xi was amused by Song Li's appearance, the more he looked at it, the more he liked it, and then suddenly he held her face and kissed her deeply. Song Li was taken aback, but he was encircled in his arms, pushed twice and didn't push away, so he simply let him come.
Chen Xi gently left her lips, and then whispered softly in her ear, "What I said is true." ”
"Huh?" Song Li's heartbeat was disturbed by the breathing in her ears, and she blushed and didn't react for a while.
"When I said marry you, it's true." Chen Xi said with a smile.
Song Li's face turned even redder, she patted his chest, and when she saw someone coming, she pushed him away.
Chen Xi stood on the side of the road and smirked like a silly boy, Song Li looked at him and laughed himself. Then the mobile phone rang suddenly, Chen Xi came up and glanced at the name on the caller ID, Song Li was also stunned, and only remembered to answer the phone after a while.
Song Li: "Hey? ”
Qu Ran: "Song Li, it's me, Qu Ran." ”
Qu Ran's voice was a little tired, Song Li could also hear it, she asked with some worry: "What's wrong with you, where are you, have you come back?" ”
On the other end of the phone was the sound of refractive breathing, and then she suddenly smiled and said, "Which of your many questions do I have to answer first?" ”
Song Li was relieved when he heard the long-lost laughter on the other end of the phone, "Then answer me first, are you okay now." ”
"Well, it seems like it's a tough question." Qu Ran smiled and said, "What about you, how are you?" ”
Song Li looked at Chen Xi beside him, and then said, "Well, I'm fine." ”
"Oh," Qu Ran replied, and only spoke after a while, "Song Li, I'm getting married, can you be my bridesmaid." ”
Song Li was stunned, she knew that Qu Ran was going to get married, but she didn't expect it to be so sudden and so fast, "When?" ”
"Next month, the 25th, Christmas." Qu Ran said, "Be my bridesmaid, you promised me before." ”
Song Li took a deep breath and said, "Okay." ”
"Thank you." Qu Ran hung up after speaking.
"What is she doing, is she back?" Chen Xi saw Qu Ran's name just now, so he asked directly.
"She's getting married." Song Li was a little sad.
Chen Xi doted on Song Li and kissed her hair.
