Chapter 51: Returning from a Business Trip
Ma Mei's matter, Cui Miqi confessed to her mother. She was afraid that her mother would be asked about by her father, so it was better to explain it earlier. This is also good for the mother to be mentally prepared.
However, after hearing this, Meng Lisa didn't react much, just nodded lightly, weak, and obviously didn't take this matter to heart. She knew that her mother had a hard time these two days, but she was not in such a bad spirit.
Meng Lisa looked in a very bad state, as if she was seriously ill, her face was pale, her eyes were blank, and the dark circles under her eyes were frighteningly large. This look deeply stung Cui Miqi's eyes. My heart was sore and painful, like being held tightly by an invisible hand, uncomfortable but unable to speak. How could she not feel this way before, taking everything her mother gave for granted, and never thinking about it from her standpoint. During this period of time, she clearly realized that the pressure on her mother was much greater than she imagined.
She suddenly felt overwhelmed. She was afraid that her mother was really sick, and she was even more afraid that it was because she was not good enough that she would make her mother sick. She looked at Meng Lisa's face distressedly: "Mom, why don't we confess to my dad, don't hide it like this again." ”
"What do you think, do you think he will believe you when you say it? Will anyone in this world believe what you say? I'm fine, don't worry. Your dad is to blame for this, and if he hadn't played his cards according to reason, we wouldn't be where we are now. You don't know, he ordered takeout at home last night, and all the orders were your favorite barbecue and drinks, and I didn't sleep all night after eating, so I became a ghost today. ”
"Yo, it's still my dad who is interesting."
"It's interesting. You father and daughter are wearing the same pair of pants, and you want to take advantage of my absence and no one cares about me to kill me. I'm the one I owe you both in my last life. Lisa gave her an angry look. Look at her happy like that, dare not eat, and listen to it. It's yourself who suffers, and you have to force yourself to smile. This acting is really a university question.
"Where, look at what you said. Mom, I don't know how much I wish we could change identities soon. You see, it's time to experience it, both of us have experienced it, and now, you can be considerate of me, and I can be considerate of you, which is something that I couldn't have imagined before. But the old man couldn't find anyone now, and he didn't know when the time would come. I'm worried that if we continue like this, we will collapse sooner or later. ”
"This matter depends on the will of God, and we are not in a hurry. I'll make up for my sleep now, I have to go back to sleep so that I can have the energy to go to class in the afternoon. You read these books first, and you don't have to sleep at noon, because you have a lot of time anyway. ”
"Mom, how can there be such a thing as you, I have to sleep too!"
"Then you're going to get a zero score."
Meng Lisa walked away, leaving Cui Miqi to hide her face and sigh at the thick pile of books. God, there is no reason, even the sleep time has to be used to review, is there an adult who is so tired? It's nothing short of abuse.
It's Wednesday in a blink of an eye. That is the day when Cui Miqi pretended to come back from a business trip. Cui Daqing called early in the morning and asked her when she would come back so that he could pick her up. When she received the call, she was at work. In the quiet library, when there is a disturbance, everyone present can hear it clearly. She was afraid that Ma Mei would hear it, so she secretly ran to the hand-washing indirect phone, and her voice was the lowest, for fear of reaching the ears of others.
"Your company is busy, I'll just go home by myself. Also, I'm going to pick up my daughter from school, so you can go to work with confidence. Cui Miqi whispered with her hand next to her phone.
"Lisa, where are you now? Speak too quietly for me to hear. Did you get in the car? I didn't hear anything over there, so why don't I send someone to pick you up?" Cui Daqing didn't know what to do, and he was worried about his wife, so he wanted to send someone to Xihai City to pick her up. The two cities are not far away, and it takes about five hours to go back and forth.
"No need, don't worry, I'm fine. I'll pack my things first, and you can wait for me at home. I'm going to be busy, goodbye. ”
Without waiting for Cui Daqing to speak, Cui Miqi hung up the call. She patted her chest, let out a sigh of relief, and looked around again. There was no one around, quietly. I opened the door to the bathroom, and there was no one outside, and it was still quiet. Fortunately, no one should have heard what she said just now, so she was relieved. Talking on the phone is like a thief, all the grass and trees are soldiers, sneaky, and nothing will make people mistakenly think that she is doing something that is not human. She tugged at her clothes unnaturally, reached out to straighten her hair, looked regained her composure, and walked to the bookshelf, pretending to tidy up the books on them.
She looked at the time, it was nine o'clock in the morning, a three-hour drive back from a "business trip", and it was just in time to pick up her mother from school at noon. When I got home at night, I really couldn't help it, so I found another excuse to go out, and went out for a few more days, and next week it is estimated that my father should also go on a business trip.
The reality is that plans often fail to keep up with change. Cui Miqi is indeed right, as long as it drags on for a few more days, as soon as her father leaves, she will be able to return to her original appearance, and she will no longer have to hide in Tibet. Unexpectedly, the time that the old man said would come, and when he was caught off guard, it came.
At the end of school, Lisa waited for Trimici to come and pick her up. Today is the day she nominally returns from a business trip, and the calculated time and reason are only missing her appearance.
Cui Miqi hasn't shown up yet, and she probably has found an excuse to go home and drive an electric car so that she can pick her up, so the time is a little later than usual. She was bored by herself, so she wanted to find a place to sit and wait. I just walked to the door of a bubble tea shop, but I didn't expect a person to come to me. When the man saw her, he stopped her and did not let her go.
Lisa looked confused. What's the matter with this guy, I haven't seen him for some days, and this eagerness is to show whom. Didn't you say that they have nothing to do with each other, what does it mean to stop her now? She didn't say anything, but wanted to see what the other party had to say to her.
That person was Lu Bufan, the senior Cui Miqi avoided before. But what Meng Lisha didn't know was that Cui Miqi had a hot chat with this senior in the past two days, and it was not the same attitude of resistance as before. Cui Miqi had her phone with her all the time, so she didn't expect it to develop like this. It turned out that the two not only saved each other's phone numbers, but also added each other's WeChat accounts. Just because Cui Miqi didn't have time to reply to the message at work, Lu Bufan hurriedly came forward to say hello as soon as he saw Meng Lisa. But he never expected that the "Cui Miqi" in front of him was not the Cui Miqi who communicated with him.
"Mickie, you didn't reply to my message all morning, and I was in a hurry. Is your phone dead? Lu Bufan walked up to Meng Lisha and stopped her.
Meng Lisa was stunned for a moment, and immediately replied to him: "I, I didn't bring my mobile phone." Excuse me, what's the matter with you? ”
"I see, I know that you won't ignore me for no reason. Miqi, can you add me on WeChat, willing to chat with me, I, I'm very happy. Don't take those things that happened before, let's make friends. Let's go, I'll invite you to drink milk tea. ”
"No, I don't have time, I'll go first." This damn Cui Miqi, didn't he say okay, don't add this person's WeChat, don't save this person's number, don't reply to messages, and don't call? What's going on now, and when did the two of them add it? It seemed that a fire was burning in her heart, and the fire was still burning more and more, and she couldn't wait to see Cui Miqi right now and interrogate her properly.
"Mickey, what's wrong with you? We didn't have a good conversation, like they didn't know me. ”
"I'll talk about this later, my mother came to pick me up, I'll go first, bye-bye."
Meng Lisa seemed to run away, without looking back to the ground, without looking at Lu Bufan, and directly passed by him. Lu Bufan, who was behind him, stretched out his hand and wanted to grab it, but he didn't dare to do it, so he could only watch Meng Lisa walk farther and farther, and he didn't turn around and leave until he couldn't see it anymore.
He couldn't figure out how Cui Miqi looked at him just now, like looking at a stranger, very cold, very light, even stranger than the first two times he saw her. But she is not like this in the mobile phone, after two days of communication, her personality, her witty language, always appear in his mind, she should not be like this. What the hell is going on? Did he say the wrong thing? Thinking of this, he took out his mobile phone from his pocket, opened the chat history of the two of them, and looked at it carefully from beginning to end, but he didn't see anything.
