As soon as she entered the house, Mencius collapsed on the sofa, she was really tired, this tiredness was also accompanied by a faint pain in the lower body, she knew that this was the economic personnel, her eyes were misty, she turned over, buried her face in the sofa, and did not let the shrewd Meng Ma find out.

Seeing her like this, the hard-mouthed and soft-hearted Meng Ma saw her like this, and the anger just now was completely gone, but she felt distressed, she walked into the room and took a blanket to help her cover it, "See if you dare to have a hangover in the future, you sleep well first, and then get up to eat something, and Mom will help you clean up the house first." ”

Mencius wrapped the quilt tightly, and somehow, her nose was sore, and tears were falling down, she lifted the blanket and got up to hug Meng's mother, who was bending down to help her clean up the table, from behind.

Meng Ma heard her sobbing, stopped what she was doing, and turned to look at her, "Why are you still crying, Mom just said a few words to you, and didn't beat you and scold you, how big a person, I can't bear this little grievance, if you get married in the future and are said by your in-laws for a word or two, then you can't cry to God!" ”

Mencius burst into tears and laughed, "Then I can not marry!" ”

"Phew!" Mother Meng quickly covered her mouth, "Don't talk nonsense, Mom wants to keep you by our side, but how can parents be so selfish?" will also make others laugh, people still have to find a companion in the end, and they will not be desolate when they are old. ”

"What if you can't find it?"

"How can I not find it, isn't there a ready-made one?"

"Where?"

"Pretend, you continue to pretend to me!"

"I didn't pretend!"

Mother Meng pointed at her head with a look of hatred, "I'm talking about the kid Xingchen!" ”

As soon as Meng's mother finished speaking, Mencius remembered what happened last night, wailed, and fell on the sofa, "Mom, why haven't you given up on others?" I treat him like an older brother, how do you tell me to be with others? ”

"How could I die? Putting such a good child to others, think about me I am not reconciled, when you are young, you can treat him as a brother Yes, when he grows up, he is older than you, he can take care of you, this is even more true, when it comes to this issue, have you been in contact with each other recently, tell your mother about it! ”

Mencius saw that Meng's mother suddenly looked like gossipy, so frightened that she quickly changed the topic, she touched her stomach and said pitifully, "Mom, I'm hungry, what delicious food have you brought me?" ”

"If you know how to eat, Mom will bring it to you." After Meng Ma finished speaking, she walked in the direction of the kitchen.

Mencius escaped and smiled luckily, but she was indeed hungry, so she immediately got up from the sofa and ran to the table to sit down, and at this time, Meng's mother also brought the food out of the kitchen, put it on the dining table, and walked into the kitchen again.

There are osmanthus glutinous rice lotus root, a stir-fried seasonal vegetables, and braised elbow.

Mencius exclaimed excitedly, "It's all my favorite food!" She took a piece of glutinous rice lotus root and stuffed it into her mouth, "Sweet and soft, Mom, your craftsmanship is really getting better and better!" ”

Meng Ma, who was in the kitchen, heard her admiration and smiled proudly, "Of course, don't eat too much first, drink some soup first," and after that, Meng Ma brought out the soup and put it in front of Mencius, who looked at the black soup in front of him and asked, "What is this?" ”

"This is the black chicken soup that my mother specially stewed for you to replenish qi and blood."

After Mencius listened, he naturally thought of last night again, and immediately choked a few times, and Meng's mother hurriedly patted her on the back, "Everyone is such an adult, you will choke when you eat, hurry up and drink the soup, I see that your face is pale, and at first glance, you are staying up all night and lacking in qi and blood!" ”

Mencius took a sip of the soup and said mischievously, "Don't worry, drink your bowl of love tonic soup, and immediately come back to life full of blood!" ”

After Meng Ma sat down, she said, "Okay, okay, don't be poor, you haven't answered the question just now, Mom?" ”

Mencius drank the soup and said, "What's the problem? ”

Meng Ma was angry now, "Xingchen! ”

When Mencius heard this, the mouthful of soup that he hadn't swallowed immediately spurted out, "Mom, I beg you, don't worry about other people's work?" Maybe people don't look down on me at all! ”

Meng Ma hurriedly wiped it on the dining table with a rag, "If you don't look down on it, after so many years, will you still remember to come to see you and catch up with you?" ”

Mencius was helpless, "What does this have to do with taking a fancy to me, other people's work is here, just by the way!" ”

"By the way, he came all the way to see you!"

Mencius was stunned, remembering what he said at Jiuqu Bridge before the sun went down in West Lake Park, he said that he had come to see someone, and it turned out that the person he wanted to see was her.

Meng Ma said again, "Anyway! You just try to get along with the stars for a while, and if you don't get along well, don't say anything inappropriate. ”

Seeing Meng's mother's resolute eyes, Mencius was so helpless that he could only silently bury his head in the soup, this soup just felt sweet, but now, it was as light as boiled water, and even a little bitter, just like the unspeakable bitterness in her heart at this time.

It is said that after Lu Xingchen came out of the hotel, he drove the car directly to the community where Mencius lived, and learned from the property that Mencius had moved out of the community in the morning.

This news undoubtedly made Lu Xingchen a little lonely.

At this time, Lu Xingchen's mother Qin Wenjuan called, and she was a little excited.

"Mom, what's so happy?"

"That's right, Mom is going to your Uncle Meng's house as a guest, and now she is at Rongcheng Airport, so I'll come and pick up Mom when you have time."

"Uncle Meng! Why so suddenly? ”

"Not suddenly, the last time I heard you say that you were going to come to Rongcheng to catch up with Mencius, my mother wanted to come, this time, I just happened to talk to your Aunt Meng on the phone, and it happened that Mencius was also at home, I heard that she moved out to live, and now it's okay, I was taken home by your Aunt Meng today."

Lu Xingchen suddenly blessed his heart, "Mom, your call is really timely!" I'll go over and pick you up. ”

——

After Mencius moved home, before she had time to pack her luggage, she fell asleep, and when she was asleep, Lu Xingchen and his mother Qin Wenjuan had already come to her house.

When Meng Ma saw Lu Xingchen, of course, she couldn't help but admire, and in addition to admiration, she also apologized to him for the "blind date" incident.

Meng Ma and Qin Wenjuan haven't seen each other for many years, the two of them shushed and asked for a while, Qin Wenjuan suddenly asked about Mencius, and Lu Xingchen also looked at Meng Ma, waiting for Meng Ma's answer.

However, before Meng Ma could speak, there was a sound of complaint in the aisle.

"Mom!"

It turned out that after Mencius slept soundly for a while, because the door was not soundproof, he was naturally woken up by the movement in the living room, especially when he heard Meng's mother's excited voice, so that she could only run to the living room with sleepy eyes.

Who knows, before she could stand on her feet in the living room, she saw the face that she couldn't hide, and the bad thing was that he also happened to look at her, she was stunned for three seconds, and then ran back to the house at a fast speed.

The moment Lu Xingchen saw her, his mood became very complicated, but after all, he saw that she was safe and sound, and the string he had been tense was temporarily loosened a lot, and he couldn't wait to go to her immediately, but he didn't want to be too abrupt, so he finally calmed down, and when the elders were chatting, he got up quietly and walked in the direction of the aisle.

And Mencius, who had just run back to the house, would still be in the clouds, she never expected that Lu Xingchen would come to her door so blatantly, how could she be embarrassed?

What's worse is that she was so nervous that she wanted to go to the bathroom at this time, so she had no choice but to open a crack in the door to make sure that there was no figure he had caught up, and then she came out of the house lightly, because her room and bathroom needed to turn a corner, so at the ninety degree angle of this bend, she didn't know what would happen on the other side at any time, especially people who walked silently.

No, Mencius was bumping into Lu Xingchen's arms who came from the corner, she fell backwards with an unstable center of gravity, he quickly grabbed her arm so that she could stand firmly, she looked up, this close distance, made her want to find a hole to get into, it was too embarrassing, unprecedented embarrassment.

And what about him? Naturally, it was also embarrassing, but more of a pity for her, just after Mencius reacted and was about to run away in embarrassment, he lowered his voice and said, "I'm sorry! ”

His tone was soft, but also slightly heavy and full of guilt.

Mencius hurriedly lowered her head, she just wanted to escape from this embarrassment as soon as possible, so she spoke a little fast, "This incident started because of me, I don't mean to blame you, so you don't have to feel guilty, so be it!" ”

Lu Xingchen was slightly stunned, and grabbed her arm that was trying to break free a little harder, "Do you mean that I don't have to be responsible?" ”

Mencius nodded vigorously.

His face sank, "What if I want to be responsible?" ”

Mencius's heart chuckled, and he reflexively looked up at him, his face was still clear and extraordinary, but a little more melancholy, I don't know if it was an illusion, she actually saw the longing in his eyes, she looked away a little panicked, and tried to break free of his hand again, but he seemed to grasp it tighter, Mencius was helpless.

"Do you know the meaning of the word responsible, it is a lifelong thing, why do you have to live with a person you don't like for a lifetime? Everyone is an adult, this kind of thing is nothing big, I didn't ask you to be responsible, you don't have to worry, I will blame you! ”

Lu Xingchen let go of her slightly, and the corners of his lips hooked, "You know that I don't like it, it's really not a big deal for this kind of thing to happen to adults, but it depends on who it happens, when it comes to slander, I'm willing to let you slander!" ”

Mencius was sure that she had heard correctly, the meaning of his words made her stunned, she was just about to open her mouth to ask him, at this time, there was a sound of footsteps in the aisle, and before she could react, Lu Xingchen had already half-hugged her and turned the corner of the wall at 90 degrees, fortunately, the footsteps did not continue to move forward, Mencius was greatly relieved, completely unaware that he was still hiding in his arms.

Seeing this, Lu Xingchen let go of her with a smile, along with her arm, "It's okay, what did you just want to tell me?" ”

Mencius paused and asked, "I can understand the meaning of what you just said to you... Do you like me? With that, she felt her cheeks heat slightly, and then pretended to be calm and leaned against the wall, and turned her face away slightly.

"Yes!"

Without hesitation, his cheeks turned from hot to red, turned her back to him, and said angrily, "Look at how you speak so directly!" ”

Lu Xingchen looked at her back intently, "Why do you want to beat around the bush if you like someone?" Do you hate me? ”

"I don't hate you, but... But I don't like you either! She said directly.
