Chapter 236: The Beginning of the Cold War
In the car, the atmosphere was a little cold.
Although Tan Man's mood was not high, he saw that his face was not very good, so he took the initiative to speak: "Shouldn't you be angry again?" ”
He remained silent, and finally spoke when she thought he would not answer.
"Zhang Jiakai, how's it going?"
"Now it looks pretty normal." She paused and added, "I'm just out of a friend's concern, don't think about it." ”
She didn't understand, what he minded wasn't Zhang Jiakai at all.
"I'm not that stingy."
When Tan Man heard this, she suddenly skimmed over the car window and laughed, in the morning, who had to ask her to move. It's just that the way he was jealous was so extreme that he even moved out of the marriage event.
Gu Mochen frowned: "What are you laughing at?" ”
She shook her head and looked at him meaningfully, Zhang Jiakai suddenly got sick, which had a great impact on her, life is impermanent, she should really be more grateful, and cherish the talents around her.
"Gu Mochen, let's not make trouble, okay, the time for me to come back is short, I don't want to waste it on quarrels."
He glanced at her, took her hand, put it on his thigh and held it tightly, and said nothing.
……
Tan Man rarely comes back, she must go back to Suzhou, and on the day of the official start of the May Day holiday, Gu Mochen drove her back.
After the last meeting, Gu Mochen and Tan Weiguo got closer, originally Gu Mochen planned to send her over and return to Shanghai directly, but Tan Weiguo insisted on letting him stay and have lunch before leaving.
During the meal, Tan Weiguo announced one thing in front of the two of them, he and Xu Qiong decided to live together, because they were both remarried and old, so they decided to pick a time after the end of May Day and get a certificate in a low-key manner.
When Tan Man heard the news, she was overjoyed, seeing that her father could finally let go of his worries and bravely pursue his own happiness, and saw that Xu Qiong finally entered this house in the name of righteousness, and accompanied each other instead of her mother and father, which was probably the happiest thing for her in recent years.
So, this meal can be regarded as a family celebration in advance. And Gu Mochen seemed to have acquiesced to the identity of his future son-in-law by Tan Weiguo after this meal.
stayed at home for a day, and the next morning, Tan Man hurried back to Shanghai.
Because she was going to the hospital to do bone marrow matching for Zhang Jiakai, she found an excuse and politely refused Gu Mochen's kindness to come to Suzhou to pick her up, and went straight to the hospital after coming out of the high-speed rail station.
After completing the previous procedures, Xue Yuelan accompanied her to wait in line, and at this time, the phone rang.
When she saw Gu Mochen's call on the screen, she suddenly felt empty, because she thought about matching Zhang Jiakai with a type, and she still planned to hide it from him.
Found a slightly quieter corner, and reluctantly pressed the answer button: "Hey? ”
"Manman, are you there, I'll pick you up at the station."
She suddenly felt a little guilty: "It's okay, it's very convenient for me to take a taxi back by myself, it's rare to rest, you can sleep for a while." ”
"I'll pick you up, let's go to a farm for dinner at noon, and take you to meet a few old classmates, just by the way, you don't have to come back."
"Noon?" She was startled and asked weakly.
Gu Mochen thought she was embarrassed, and explained with a smile: "Don't be nervous, I won't cheat you like last time, Chen Rui and Xiao Zhi, you have seen them, and they are all a few old college classmates, they have shouted several times, let me take you out to meet everyone." ”
Because he didn't know how long the blood test would take, Tan Man bit his lip and didn't know what to do for a while: "It's too sudden, why didn't you say it yesterday?" ”
"I proposed it early this morning, and I thought you said that you would come back for dinner at noon, so I simply agreed to them directly."
Tan Man looked back at the waiting room where there was no movement, very annoyed, he knew that he should have said that he would come back in the afternoon.
"What's wrong, what's the problem?" Seeing that she didn't speak, Gu Mochen asked again.
"I ...... I probably won't be able to go. ”
She has tasted the bitter fruit of telling a lie, and she has to use a hundred lies to complete it, besides, she has not been a person who is good at telling lies since she was a child.
"What's the matter, is there something happening at home?"
She took a breath and confessed: "I'm sorry, I lied to you, I came back early in the morning, and now I'm in the hospital, preparing to do a bone marrow matching for Zhang Jiakai, and I'm lining up, I don't know when it will end." ”
There was no sound on the other end of the phone.
Tan Man was a little flustered: "Don't be angry, I'm sorry, I shouldn't hide it from you, I'm just afraid that after you know, it will be like now." ”
At this moment, it is undeniable that Gu Mochen is really angry, but what he is even more angry is Xue Yuelan, what reason, what demeanor, all of them are rolled aside at this moment, anger and a feeling of betrayal are pressed on his chest, as if he is about to surge out in the next second.
"Did Zhang Jiakai and his mother ask you to do it?" There was no warmth in his voice.
"I volunteered, Aunt Lan would definitely not make such a request to me." She replied submissively.
Gu Mochen paused, tried to restrain his emotions, and said word by word: "Now come out for me immediately, and wait for me at the gate of the hospital." ”
By this time, he had already walked to the parking lot, started the car and rushed to the hospital.
Tan Man felt that he was really angry this time, and suddenly panicked a little in his heart, and coaxed in a low voice: "Don't be like this, just draw blood, you will be me, when I volunteer to donate blood on the street, okay, do you want to be jealous with a patient?" ”
"I don't want to say it a second time."
Tan Man was very embarrassed, she really didn't expect that Gu Mochen's rejection and resistance to Zhang Jiakai was so great, at this time, the nurse finally came out and shouted, and her name was called.
She hesitated, but still didn't obey: "Now it's my turn, I have to hang up the phone, I'll call you back in a while, it's estimated that it will be soon, as soon as it's done, I'll go to you, okay?" ”
"Tan Man, if you dare to hang up the phone, don't come." His voice was frighteningly cold.
She gritted her teeth and hung up the phone anyway.
Tan Man's heart was very heavy, she lowered her head and walked back silently, ready to go in to draw blood.
Xue Yuelan seemed to sense something, and took her hand worriedly.
"Is my boyfriend angry?"
Tan Man pursed her lips, pulled out a smile, and shook her head: "It's my turn, then I'll go in first." ”
After entering, the nurse carefully checked her information before drawing blood, asked some questions, and repeatedly determined it several times before starting to draw blood, Tan Man was always in a state of fugue, thinking about Gu Mochen all the time.
……
Gu Mochen was already on his way to the hospital, but when Tan Man resolutely hung up the phone, the accumulated anger ignited instantly, he turned around the steering wheel and drove away with a foot on the accelerator.
I don't know when he started to regard Tan Man as his closest and most important person, and he has always thought that Tan Man has the same idea as him, so in the matter of Xue Yuelan, even if she doesn't know it, she still thinks that Tan Man will be on her side and should be on her side.
Xue Yuelan is the minefield in his heart, this thunder that has been hidden for more than 20 years finally exploded at this moment.
He was angry with Tan Man, he obviously loved her so much, why did he just do it against himself in the things he cared about so much?
He was angry with Xue Yuelan, obviously his biological mother, why did he have to throw himself away ruthlessly back then, and now he is brazenly coming to the door,
He was even more angry with himself, why after so many years, he just couldn't let go, Zhang Jiakai and Tan Man were very innocent, but he really couldn't get over that hurdle......
Tan Man drew blood and immediately came out of the hospital, while calling him, he ran to the side of the road to call a taxi, and the phone rang for a long time and finally connected.
"Hey, where are you?" Because of the trotting all the way, his voice was a little wheezing, "I'll come to you now!" ”
Gu Mochen's tone was very light: "You go home first, I've already passed, on the highway." ”
Tan Man restrained his steps and waved his hand to stop the car and fell.
She knew that she had screwed things up,
This is the first time he has invited her to participate in his social circle, and it also means that he has decided from the bottom of his heart that he wants to invite her into his life, which is a manifestation of a man's love, but now he has messed it all up because of her clever concealment.
"Why don't you send me a location and I'll take a taxi?" She's trying to make amends.
"No need, I've already told them that you can't get over something, next time."
"I know you're angry, I shouldn't have hidden it from you, this time it's me who is wrong." She whispered, "I ......"
"Okay, I'm driving, let's go back."
Tan Man paused: "Then, when will you come back?" ”
"Let's finish eating."
"I'll be waiting for you at home."
The phone was hung up.
Tan Man stayed at Gu Mochen's house all day and didn't go anywhere, accompanied Xiaobei to finish lunch and dinner, finished a storybook, and watched episode after episode of cartoons, but Gu Mochen still didn't come back, during which she called him twice, no one answered, and sent a few WeChat messages, but no one replied.
He never had this way before.
When Xiaobei fell asleep, it was already nine o'clock in the evening.
Minute by minute, Tan Man nestled on the sofa, waiting patiently.
I thought that after being separated for more than a month, this would be a sweet and warm holiday, but what went wrong, from the first day, they were like they were on the wrong track, inexplicable disputes, awkward emotions, lukewarm tones, and even when they did the most intimate thing yesterday morning, they were not as fully engaged as before.
Seeing that there were less than twenty-four hours left to get together, she was anxious, depressed, scared, and lost, what if they were still so deadlocked until her flight took off tomorrow afternoon?
Isn't that the most taboo thing about long-distance relationships......
Thinking wildly, the emotions that had been endured for a day finally collapsed, and the mist in his eyes turned into a tear in his sadness, and suddenly burst the embankment, sobbing and choking, echoing in the huge house.
She was so tired of crying that she fell asleep, but because she had something on her mind, she didn't sleep well at all, and the slightest movement woke her up.
