Chapter 22: Blind Date
When Xia Yunbo arrived at the North Island Cafe, Wu Peilan was chatting happily with the woman who was going on a blind date. Glimpsing her son open the door and coming in, Wu Peilan hurriedly ran over to stop Xia Yunbo, "You wait......" and then looked up and down to see if there was anything wrong with her son's clothes that caused misunderstanding, she didn't want to encounter something like last time. When he felt that his son had no flaws in his body, he let his son come to the blind date.
The woman has long curly hair, wears a fashionable dress, light makeup, and is smiling. It looks dignified and polite. Although Xia Yunbo didn't feel like his heart pounding, he didn't hate it. The woman looked at Xia Yunbo's upright figure, delicate facial features, the calm aura exuded from her body, and the most important thing was that she had sultry eyes, just one glance made a woman's heart belong, and she couldn't take her eyes off.
Xia Yunbo ordered another cup of Blue Mountain. The two began to talk slowly. At this time, Wu Peilan left early as the previous time, but this time she did not leave the café too far, but found a corner place to watch the battle while drinking coffee.
Seeing the girl sometimes covering her mouth and smiling, sometimes lowering her eyes and shyness, while Xia Yunbo sometimes slightly hooked her lips, and sometimes drank a cup slightly. Wu Peilan's heart was already happy, and she clasped her hands and said to herself, "It seems that there is hope this time."
So after the blind date ended, after Xia Yunbo sent the woman out of the door, Wu Peilan patted Xia Yunbo from behind. Frightened, Xia Yunbo looked back and found that it was his mother, so he asked strangely, "Mom, why are you still here?" Wu Peilan smiled and said, "I'm sitting in the corner not far from you, how about I am satisfied this time." Xia Yunbo really had nothing to say to his mother, only said, "I feel okay, I left my contact information." Wu Peilan patted her son's shoulders with both hands and said excitedly, "I knew you had a good chat," with a smile on her face, not to mention how happy she was with her son's performance today. It's just that Xia Yunbo is curious, why did my mother arrange a blind date for herself again, could it be that the "little girlfriend" thing was exposed last time? With his mother's means, he probably knows that it's right.
On the weekend, Su Ru also arranged a blind date for Liu Yan. This is also the first time that Liu Yan has taken the initiative to ask for a blind date in so many years, so he deliberately dressed himself up, and then left the teahouse that Su Ru said satisfactorily after Su Ru nodded.
According to Su Ru's description, the blind date was dressed in a navy blue suit, aged thirty-five, and held a magazine in his right hand.
Soon, Liu Yan followed what Su Ru said, and locked the target by the window of the teahouse.
"Hello, Mr. Zhou. I'm Liu Yan, Su Ru's friend. ”
"Hello! I'm Zhou Xiaotian," the man excitedly stood up, shook hands, and introduced himself.
"I'm sorry, I'm late," Liu Yan explained as he shook hands.
"It's not too late, I'm just early"
After everyone was seated, Zhou Xiaotian beckoned the waiter over and asked Liu Yan, "What do you drink?" ”
"Biluochun is fine."
From the moment Liu Yan walked in front of Zhou Xiaotian, he had been laughing inexplicably, not knowing what to laugh at, and Liu Yan was furious when he laughed.
Then I heard Zhou Xiaotian say, "Miss Liu, you look really young and beautiful, completely beyond my expectations"
As soon as Liu Yan heard this, he looked at Zhou Xiaotian's eyes when he looked at him, and he felt uncomfortable, so he didn't speak so politely, "Is it?" I'm not young anymore, how young and beautiful I am. But Mr. Zhou seems to be as Su Ru said, very handsome! ”
Zhou Xiaotian clenched his hands in embarrassment, smiled, jumped away from the topic, and asked directly: "Listen to Su Ru, you have been busy with work since your husband was gone, and you don't have time to talk about it?" ”
"Yes, plus the child is still young......"
"Kid?" Before Liu Yan could finish speaking, Zhou Xiaotian asked with a sudden expression, "You mean your own child?" ”
Liu Yan was also surprised, didn't Su Ru tell him about sedum?
With a solemn expression, he replied, "Yes." Didn't Su Ru say it? That's really embarrassing, maybe Su Ru was negligent. My son is three years old this year," Liu Yan took a sip of tea.
Who knew that Zhou Xiaotian, who was still flattering just now, immediately became disgusted when he heard Liu Yan say about the child, and said as if he had changed people, "I thought you were alone, if you don't say it earlier, it will be a waste of my time", and then left without looking back.
Liu Yan shook his head and chuckled, calmly sat there and drank the rest of the tea, and watched Zhou Xiaotian leave the teahouse in a hurry.
After a while, Su Ru's phone rang
"Su Ru, what do you mean, can't I find a woman? Introduce a boy with a child. Are you kidding me? ”
Su Ru was confused by this sudden abuse, and waited until Zhou Xiaotian finished scolding to react to what was going on. Su Ru was also very angry, and she didn't care about any acquaintances or not, she was a little embarrassed to hide that Liu Yan had a child from him, but now she only hated it
"You didn't say you couldn't have children. What's wrong with having a child, you don't deserve to be a child's father?"
Su Ru hung up the phone, knowing that Liu Yan must be sad and angry at this time. I didn't dare to call and ask, just wait for Liu Yan to come back.
Who knew that Liu Yan was not only not angry when she came back, but also happily brought her the Ruyi shortbread in the teahouse.
Su Ru asked embarrassedly, "Liu Yan, are you okay?" I'm so sorry.,I didn't know how to introduce you to each other beforehand.,We've had dinner together a few times before.,I feel like he's pretty good.,I didn't expect ......"
Liu Yan changed his clothes and said with a smile, "It's okay, isn't it just a delay of some time, I have nothing to lose." Besides, you're also in a hurry with me."
Su Ru looked at Liu Yan's appearance, and it didn't seem to be easy to pretend to be, so she asked, "Then will you be the same next time?" ”
"Of course, but you have to make it clear to others. I was supposed to do this for Sedum. Be sure to let the other person know that there is a sedum. Oh, I'll have to take that kid with me next time, and it won't matter if he doesn't like me. Liu Yan changed into a white coat and turned around and added.
At this time, Sedum heard Liu Yan talking about himself in the house, so he came out and asked, "Mom, what good things do you want to take with me?" ”
Liu Yan and Su Ru looked at each other and smiled, and Su Ru said, "I'll know if I take you next time." ”
"Mom also played mystery with me. Then I'm going to go and play with Duoduo? Sedum said that he was going out with a toy.
"You're sick, don't go out and walk around. Just draw at home and watch cartoons," Liu Yan said, holding Sedum.
"Mom, I'm fine. I haven't played with Toto in days."
"Okay, you'll be back after a while."
"Got it!"
Then Liu Yan looked at Sedum and ran towards Duojia.
Li Hui saw Sedum running over and asked with a smile, "Sedum, I heard Duoduo say that you are sick?" Is it okay now? ”
"Yes, Auntie. I'm fine. I'm looking for a lot to play. ”
Li Hui shouted into the house, "Duoduo, Sedum is here, come out quickly." ”
Duoduo happily came out and took Sedum to his room.
"Sedum, you don't have a fever, I'm worried about you," Duoduo said, taking Sedum's hand.
"It's okay, we're all men, what's a fever." Sedum let go of Duoduo, who was a little girly, and patted his chest and said.
"I also had a fever before and took very bitter medicine. What about you? Have you taken your medicine? ”
"I guess I ate it too, I don't know very well, I feel like I've been sleeping. But I got an injection, you look at my forehead. Sedum said as he picked up the place that had been pricked by the needle and showed it to Duoduo.
"Gee, that must be painful." Duoduo said, put his snacks in Sedum's hand and said, "This is my favorite Oreo biscuit, I'll give it to you now, you won't hurt if you eat it." ”
Sedum took the biscuit and said, "It doesn't hurt anymore"
"Why do you think people get sick?" Duoduo asked, holding his chin with his hands.
"I don't know, but it's okay to be sick, and my mother is gentle with me now."
"Yes! Oh, yes! When I was sick, my dad and my mom were babies, babies fed me, ate snacks, and agreed to me for anything," Duoduo excitedly shared the joy of his parents taking care of him.
In fact, for children from normal families, it is normal for parents to take care of them when they are sick. But when Sedum thought of his father, he was a little depressed, he used to be sick and his mother was busy, and at that time Sedum thought he didn't have a father. But fortunately, now that my father is back, I will be accompanied by my parents when I get sick in the future.
Thinking like this, Sedum became happy again, patted Duoduo on the shoulder and said, "My parents accompanied me when I was sick this time."
Duoduo was also curious, blinking his eyes and asking, "Is your dad back?" ”
"Yes."
"Does he live in your house now?"
"No, he has a job to do"
Duoduo nodded as if he didn't understand, "Then next time your dad comes again, remember to call me over to have a look."
"Okay" The two little guys stood up after reaching an agreement.
"What's so happy, two little ones? Come and eat the fruit" Li Hui washed some fruit and brought it in, and when she saw the two children smiling happily, she asked casually.
Duoduo stood up and took Li Hui's arm and said, "When Sedum said that when he was sick, his father came back and has been taking care of him."
"Oh, yes." Li Hui's expression was puzzled, and she went out with a smile.
As soon as he got outside, he pulled his husband and asked, "Hey, do you know Sedum Dad?" ”
Qian Feng shook his head and said, "I don't think I've seen it all along." Why do you ask this? ”
"Duoduo told me before that Sedum's father sent Sedum oil paintings, and I wondered. This time Sedum was sick and heard that he was taking care of Sedum in the hospital. I wondered what kind of person he was. Why have I never seen him come to Liu Yan? ”
Qian Feng saw that his wife's gossip came up again, and quickly interrupted Li Hui's words, "Okay, okay, why are you worrying so much about this family's family affairs." ”。
Qian Feng is the kind of person who is honest and not nosy, so he naturally doesn't want his wife to be troublesome.
Li Hui was not happy with her husband's fear of things, so she pouted and said, "I don't think Liu Yanren is very good, and she always helps us pick up more from school, I just want to care about her."
"It is estimated that people are working outside, so it is inconvenient to go home to see their wives and children," Qian Feng said, fiddling with the products on the shelves.
Li Hui thought to herself, "At first, I thought she was divorced, so she worked so hard to raise children and make money by herself." But after more contact, I found that even if the divorce is made, the man should always come to see the children. It's been more than three years, and I haven't seen him once, and I've never seen Sedum mention his father. But in the past few days, I have always seen Sedum talk about it. ”
