Chapter 25: Don't be a general taste

At breakfast time, Su Luoluo took her mother Su Yi to the restaurant to meet Lu Lingchen, and Su's mother thanked Lu Lingchen very sincerely and repeatedly, and returned the expenses of Su Luoluo to him in the past few days.

Lu Lingchen smiled faintly and said politely: "It's nothing, as a teacher, it should be like this." ”

The three of them chatted about the travel anecdotes of the past few days while eating, and spent breakfast happily.

Su Yi asked: "Since the passport has been recovered, is the replacement passport going to be cancelled?" ”

Lu Lingchen pondered for a moment: "It stands to reason that it is needed, I'm afraid I have to go to the embassy in London today." In addition, when does Su Luoluo plan to return to China? ”

Su Yi looked at her daughter and asked for her opinion.

Su Luoluo made a bitter face: "Ah, I'm really reluctant, Britain is so beautiful~"

"Silly boy, you don't recognize life. But no matter how beautiful you are, you have to go home after all. Su Yi thought for a while, "My medical seminar will end the day after tomorrow, why don't you go back together?" ”

Hearing this, Su Luoluo nodded.

Su Yi turned her head again and said politely to Lu Lingchen, "Teacher Lu, do you have any plans?" ”

"I'm almost going back to prepare the lesson plan for my third year of high school, so I'll go back to China with you."

So the date of returning to China was set for the day after tomorrow.

*********

After Lu Lingchen accompanied Su's mother and daughter out of the embassy, Su Luoluo took her mother away under the pretext of going shopping with her mother.

The mother and daughter spent a long day shopping at Harrods Department Store, a shopping paradise, and finally chose an Armani shirt and wallet as a thank you gift for Lu Lingchen.

Su Luoluo remembered Zhong Wenbin, who was also very hard to help this time. After discussing with my mother, I also bought a more stable tie of the same brand and planned to give it to him as a thank you gift.

When it was time for dinner, the three of them chose a western restaurant not far from the hotel.

Lu Lingchen was a little surprised to receive a gift from Su Luoluo's mother and daughter. After repeated excuses, he finally accepted it implicitly.

Su Luoluo's vision is very in line with his usual low-key style. He liked the gifts.

Su Luoluo took out another gift bag and asked him to help give it to Zhong Wenbin, thanking him for his great help. Lu Lingchen nodded and took it.

Eating traditional British Western food, in addition to talking about British customs and customs, the topic inevitably fell on Su Luoluo, who was about to enter the third year.

"Mr. Lu, thank you very much for your dedication to Luoluo this semester. Not only has her English improved a lot, but her math score has also improved a lot, which has made me feel a lot more relieved as a mother. Su Yi raised the wine in front of her and toasted Lu Lingchen.

Lu Lingchen smiled and held up the lemonade in front of him, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry Mother Su, I can't drink well, I'm not good at drinking." Thank you for your kindness by replacing wine with water. ”

After clinking glasses with Su Yi without being humble or arrogant, he drank half of the water in the cup.

Su Yi meditated in her heart: Don't smoke, don't drink? He's a good man.

"As a Cambridge graduate, will Mr. Lu have some nostalgia for this revisit?"

Hearing her mother ask Lu Lingchen about the question, Su Luoluo quietly pricked up her ears to listen.

Lu Lingchen pursed his lips and chuckled, "It's okay." ”

"By the way, Mr. Lu mentioned last time, do you plan to stop being a teacher in the future?"

Lu Lingchen didn't expect Su Yi to still be thinking about this, it seems that this aunt is really concerned about this matter.

He pondered for a moment, then simply nodded and admitted, "Yes, I won't be a middle school teacher all the time." Late may return to the financial circle, after all, it is an interest and a specialty. ”

Su Luoluo pretended to concentrate on cutting the steak and forcibly suppressed the shock in his heart: he is no longer a teacher?!

Su Yi nodded clearly: "Yes, Mr. Lu is a financial talent, and he has achieved success in his studies, so it would be too wasteful not to continue to work in the financial circle." ”

"Are you going to go back to the UK, or do you want to stay back home?"

Su Luoluo couldn't help but immediately raised her head and looked at Lu Lingchen, the question her mother asked was too worrying.

As everyone knows, Su Luoluo's nervous performance, Su Yi and Lu Lingchen saw it without a trace.

In fact, Lu Lingchen has not yet decided what will happen in the future, he just wants to accompany Su Luoluo to finish his third year of high school for the time being.

In order not to make Su Yi continue to be suspicious, he said ambiguously: "It is possible, and it is possible to go to the investment bank on Wall Street." ”

Su Luoluo felt that the steak in front of her suddenly became unfragrant......

quietly put Su Luoluo's disappointment in his eyes.

Lu Lingchen added: "This class of students is the first class I have led, and I have poured a lot of expectations into them, and I just want to accompany them through the third year of high school for the time being, and the title of the gold list." We'll see the rest later. ”

The words were both sincere and decent. Su Yi couldn't help but nodded, and then looked at her daughter with a nervous expression. Su Yi felt that there were some things that could not be left unsaid.

After eating, take advantage of the gap between Su Luoluo and going to the bathroom.

Mother Su Yi felt that she couldn't delay any longer, and she said to Lu Lingchen sincerely: "Thank you very much for taking care of you during this time. Our Luoluo is still young and very young, and she will encounter many people and many things in the future. Now, as a student who is about to enter the third year of high school, the top priority is to study steadily and be admitted to the ideal university. Mr. Lu, you said yes, right? ”

Lu Lingchen is a student with a super high IQ, and he naturally heard the meaning of these words.

From the perspective of a mother, Su's mother's thoughts are actually understandable. He understands that, too.

In fact, he has always planned to wait for Su Luoluo to officially go to college, and then confess to her according to the situation. It's just that too much has happened during this time, and the progress is a bit unexpected.

Lu Lingchen looked at Su Yi and nodded: "I understand your expectations, naturally it is as you said." ”

"You are a talent, you are indeed a very rare good teacher, Su Luoluo is her blessing to meet you," Su Yi heard Lu Lingchen's words, breathed a sigh of relief, and sincerely praised him.

**********

The next day, her mother, Su Yi, was going to a medical seminar. Su Luoluo decided to walk around alone and finally get a good feel for the UK.

She walked to the stop, bought a ticket to board the double-decker sightseeing bus in London, and went up the stairs to the back of the upper floor.

Su Luoluo wears headphones and plays her favorite English song on her mobile phone. The double-decker bus slowly drives past famous attractions such as St. Paul's Cathedral, the City of London, and the Tower of London.

The scenes of traveling around London with Lu Lingchen in the past few days are presented in my mind one by one.

I haven't seen him for a day, but I miss him very much. Think of the demeanor of his shirt and trousers, his deep and magnetic voice, the smell of mint on his body, and three times twice to protect himself.

Obviously, English songs are playing in the Bluetooth headset, but Su Luoluo's heart is full of all kinds of longing verses.

"Ruthless is not as affectionate as bitterness, an inch is still tens of thousands of wisps.

When there is poverty at the end of the world, there is only endless lovesickness. ”

I have to admit that I fell in love with him. For the first time in 19 years, she tasted and liked the taste of being alone.

I can't help but think back to what he said last night. After accompanying them to finish his third year of high school, where will he go?

Looking at the British style that kept moving back outside the body, Su Luoluo only felt very annoyed and had no intention of appreciating it anymore.

This time, she finally realized that "cutting constantly, rationalizing and messing, is sorrowful." Don't just have a general taste in mind. "It's a taste.

*********

I'm going back home tomorrow. Lu Lingchen met up for dinner with two friends from well-known London investment banks, Thomas and John.

During the dinner, I was inevitably asked again why he gave up the financial circle and returned to China.

"Ray, I didn't expect you to really go back to China to become a teacher, I couldn't believe it when I heard the news!" Thomas asked.

Lu Lingchen smiled faintly: "I have never given up finance. In a year or two, I'll be back. ”

"Really?! That's great! We, Boss, have been complimenting you on the M&A project you managed before, well done! ”

John was also excited: "Ray . . , who has terrified the investment banking community. Lu is finally back! ”

The three of them chatted while eating, and exchanged opinions on several recent investment banking projects. I haven't talked to friends in the financial circle for a long time, and Lu Lingchen feels that time flies.

Seeing that the time was not early, I ended the meal in a hurry. Lu Lingchen rushed to the largest department store in London to choose a gift for Su Luoluo.

Before the end of the summer vacation, August 28 is Su Luoluo's birthday. About her personal profile, he was fully grasped soon after taking charge.

Lu Lingchen originally wanted to send a necklace to Su Luoluo. But after thinking about it, it was a bit inappropriate to send this as a teacher.

In the past, Lu Lingchen didn't like to go shopping, his daily necessities and clothes were usually fixed with a few brands, and shopping on the street was a quick solution.

But today, after walking around and around, there is really nothing particularly agreeable. For the first time, Lu Lingchen struggled with choosing a gift.

Suddenly thinking of the love saint Zhong Wenbin, he took out his mobile phone, and he dialed Zhong Wenbin's phone.

"Hey, Wen Bin, I'm Lu Lingchen."

"Hi Lu Shuai, are you going well in the UK?

"Smooth. There's something I want to ask you about, what should a girl give her on her birthday? ”

"What? I heard it right, the thousand-year-old ice sculpture, the diamond king asked what to send to the girl?! Which beauty is so lucky~" Zhong Wenbin has a hippie smile.

"You know each other, Su Luoluo." Lu Lingchen decided to tell the truth.

"Hahahaha, I knew it was that chick! It seems that you have real feelings, brother! ”

"Hmm. Her birthday is coming, what should I give? ”

"This ......" Rao is a prodigal son in love, Zhong Wenbin has no experience in chasing such a young girl. What's more, the two have a special relationship. "Give her something she would like, or something practical for the students?"

Something practical and would you like? Lu Lingchen seemed to understand. "Okay, thank you."

Thinking that Su Luoluo has always liked literature and writes beautifully, he decided to give her a special gift.

Then he walked to the relevant counter, carefully selected, and instructed the clerk to help wrap it.

When I returned to the vicinity of the hotel, I unexpectedly saw Su Luoluo wandering around. Lu Lingchen walked quickly to her side.

"Such a coincidence? Where did you go today? ”

Su Luoluo was a little surprised when she saw that it was Lu Lingchen. "Hello Mr. Lu, no, let's go shopping by the way."

"Oh, I'm going back tomorrow. Homesick? ”

Su Luoluo chuckled: "My only family members are here, what else is there to think about." What about you? Homesick? ”

When it came to "home", Lu Lingchen's voice was a little colder: "I don't want to, I'm used to being alone." ”

Thinking that he might have accidentally stepped on the thunder, Su Luoluo lowered his head and walked silently, not daring to say anything. The two walked quietly for a while.

Su Luoluo still couldn't hold back the torture in her heart: "What you told my mother last night, is it true?" You're not going to be a teacher anymore? ”

"Hmm. It's true. Lu Lingchen said lightly.

"You told me before that it was for me that you returned to China to become a teacher. Is it true? ”

Lu Lingchen stopped, and Su Luoluo had no choice but to stand still and look at him.

I saw his dark eyes staring at him tightly: "I have always been serious, and everything I say to you is true." ”

Su Luoluo secretly took a deep breath, "You have always been very good to me and took good care of me. So, that's because, how thankful you are for me? ”

Lu Lingchen's brows tightened, he really wanted to tell her, no! It's because I like her. But because of the identity of the teacher, coupled with his promise to Su's mother last night. He couldn't speak......

Just when he hesitated and didn't know how to explain, a sudden call came out, "Luoluo!" ”

Su Yi happened to get off the taxi and ran into two people.

Seeing the person coming, Lu Lingchen shut up and didn't continue. And Su Luoluo's fleeting disappointment was also tried to hide it in her heart.

When the travel is always over, the next day Lu Lingchen, Su Luoluo, and Su Yi took a plane back to China together.

When the plane soared into the sky, Su Luoluo looked out through the window, and all the buildings on the ground gradually became blurred.

Goodbye, UK. Although she is very reluctant, she will always remember this strange experience during the summer vacation of her sophomore year of high school.
