Chapter Thirty-Seven: The Man Who Stirred Up the Trouble
After observing for two days, my mother didn't mention Lu Hao, maybe that kid was just forced to go through the motions, I was secretly glad.
Unexpectedly, I received a message at noon:
"This is my call, thank you Save. Lu Hao"
He actually has my phone number?!
It seems that there are still a lot of things I don't know. I'm not going to bother with this message. But it didn't take long for the phone to ring again, and Lu Hao's text message:
"Do you have time to have a meal together?"
"Busy, what's the matter?"
"I'm very busy at work, my unit is not far from you, so it won't take much time to have a meal together."
It should have been thorough at all, but Lu Hao pretended not to understand, which made me a little disgusted.
"No, it's busy at noon, and I don't have time to move around."
Lu Hao didn't reply again, and I was relieved.
At the end of the class, I just arrived at the hall to check in. Lu Hao, who was still wearing sunglasses, came.
When he entered the hall and saw me, he took off his glasses and raised his eyebrows, still looking cynical.
"Hey, beautiful teacher, do you want to have a dinner at noon?"
"Uh...... I really don't have time, I told you. "I pretended to be busy sorting out the booklet, avoiding his gaze.
"Okay, so let's eat here, right?" He conjured a bag from behind him, lifted it up with a smile and shook it in front of me.
"I ......" I still tried to refuse.
Before I could finish speaking, he pushed my shoulders and sat down in the chair, and I threw his hand sideways.
He smiled evilly, but he didn't care, and continued: "Rice always has to be eaten, I packed it all here, it's not good to refuse people like this, okay?" ”
I looked around and several of my colleagues walked past me laughing. Don't think about it, they must be misunderstood. I pouted with reluctance, but this Lu Hao pretended to be nothing, and even waved to greet them.
Lu Hao is so familiar with himself, and he looks like a gentleman's disciple, I really don't like it.
He opened the lunch box for me and had to open the dishes for me.
"No, I'll do it myself." Except for Mu Liang and my father, I really don't like eating with other men.
The dishes ordered by this guy are okay, there is no meat and fish, they are all Hong Kong-style snacks. I just buried my head in the food, and chose to continue to ignore his gaze, and just wanted to end it as soon as possible.
"Is it still appetizing? I don't know what you like, Hong Kong-style is more convenient, so I ordered it. Come on, try this again. Lu Hao pushed over the crystal shrimp dumplings.
"No...... No need...... cough cough..."I ate too quickly, I choked, and coughed red for a while.
Lu Hao hurriedly unscrewed a bottle of water and handed it to me, teasing: "Are you in such a hurry?" It's the same as when I was in elementary school. ”
I took a sip of water, slowed down, and said leisurely, "I don't remember, who remembers when I was in elementary school." ”
"I just remember. In fact, I met you in the English corner of the square before the high school entrance examination, but there were too many people to disperse, and I didn't have time to greet you. ”
"Oh."
"I remember when you were in elementary school, a few of us still had snot bubbles, and Kangkang played hide and seek together outside the corridor of my mother's unit......"
"Oh." I responded perfunctorily, still didn't look up, and was thinking of a reason to try to make Lu Hao stop pestering, and it was best not to let him tell his mother.
"Eh, that ......" I interrupted him, put down my chopsticks, wiped my mouth with a napkin, pursed my lips and said, "Did my mother let you come?" Actually, we are not suitable. ”
From my observations, if I don't get to the point, I'm afraid he will keep pretending not to understand.
He stopped his chopsticks and looked up in surprise. Without waiting for him to speak, I continued, "But I want to ask you for a favor?" ”
Lu Hao raised his eyebrows again, this time he avoided my eyes, and said with a smile: "Do you want me to say that we are not suitable in front of your mother and my mother?" ”
I don't know what he meant when he laughed.
"Yes." I replied categorically.
"Do you have a boyfriend?" Lu Hao's expression was serious this time.
"I said yes, are you going to make a small report?" I suddenly confessed ruthlessly, and now there is no other way, anyway, I have made up my mind, and no one can separate me from Mu Liang.
"Heh, am I the kind of person who makes small reports?!" Lu Hao sneered, then changed his face again, leaned over and said, "I think why did I quit?" And not him? ”
My heart sank, what does this guy want to do?! I was so anxious that I was speechless for a moment.
"Hehe, you know the environment and nature of my work, so I don't need to say more. You also know a little bit about the family situation, and it's not bad. Is that guy better than me? How much money can I make? How many connections do you have......" Lu Hao's proud tone made me really uncomfortable.
It's just a matter of talking about myself, belittling Mu Liang, which suddenly made me very unhappy and even angry.
"Yes...... You're in a good position, so you can choose something else! But I'm telling you, he's not bad! He can rely on his parents, just like you! It's just business, not what he likes! He is willing to fight for his ideals! Instead of being willing to walk the sunny road paved by your parents! So I'm not the same person with you! ”
I blushed with anger.
Maybe he was a little stunned when he saw me so excited: "Then you don't leave a way back for him?" ”
When you say this, it shows even more that we are different. If you like a person, you should have no hesitation, and I like to move forward without leaving a way back. ”
I stood up, not wanting to talk to him any more. If he reports it, I'll do it. If I didn't say it, I would continue to brainwash my mother secretly and strive for a perfect result.
But Lu Hao said leisurely at this time: "But...... I want to leave a way back for you. ”
I'm wondering what that means. He stood up, tall and strong, and he stood up as if I had become shorter.
The momentum can't be lost! I straightened my back.
He said as he put away the dishes: "Don't worry, I won't tell my mother, and your mother won't know." Am I so unconfident? But...... I don't give up. ”
When Lu Hao said this, I couldn't see his expression clearly, and I couldn't analyze the truth or falsehood.
After wiping the table, when he raised his head, he smiled, still the same as before, with a hippie smile, and said: "He didn't even pass the aunt's level, and you didn't dare to say it, so he lost on this point." ”
I was annoyed to see his triumphant look. If it weren't for the fact that my colleagues had also come back from dinner and passed by the hall, I would have argued with him in annoyance.
"Bye bye!" Lu Hao waved to greet my colleague.
"Bye-bye!" Lu Hao whistled at me, winked and smiled evilly.
vaguely remembers that Lu Hao has been a rebel since he was a child, and he is still very greasy when he grows up.
Standing in the hall and sulking at the sun outside, the occasional bird flying by, always accompanied by another. In my opinion, I exchanged my life with Mu Liang, and he gave me hope like a firefly, which was my courage to live in a dark and hypocritical life. And these, and Lu Hao can't be.
