Chapter 344: An awkward man who is not good at expressing himself

"Me...... I'm just going to walk around......"

"Lie, you just wanted to see us sooner. Obviously thinking so in my heart, why do you have to say such a sentence in duplicity when answering? Don't you feel awkward? ”

Xiao Jinghuan exposed all his father's careful thoughts, and his eyes shone with a cunning light.

Xiao Zhidong smiled, his face was full of connivance.

The situation of father and daughter getting along is so heartwarming-the tense atmosphere when getting along with mother and daughter forms a strong contrast, Su Jin couldn't help but sigh secretly.

Jin Hengyuan, because of this scene, his expression was inexplicably a little trance.

When he was a child, what he most often did was to stand outside the gate of the old house with his grandparents and eldest brother, waiting for his father to come back.

At that time, waiting for my father's return was a thing to look forward to.

Now, the roles seem to have changed: those who wait for others are the elders, and those who are waited for are the juniors.

At this moment, he suddenly realized that his father was really old.

"We're back!"

Still didn't call my father.

I haven't called it for many years, and the word "Dad" seems to have become strangely rusty.

"Happy birthday."

Then he added.

Su Jin glanced at him, and saw that he didn't call, so naturally she didn't call either-husband and wife advance and retreat together.

"Happy birthday to you. The tea set is Hengyuan for you to choose, this calligraphy and painting is painted by me before, not valuable, but the expression of ......"

She stepped forward and handed over the two things she was carrying.

"It's good to come, it's good to come."

Xiao Zhidong wiped out a happy smile, and happily took the things, not caring that they didn't call "Dad".

"Come, let's go in! It's a little chilly outside. ”

He beckoned them in.

"Dad, wait a minute, there's one more person, I'll be there soon!"

Xiao Jinghuan grabbed Xiao Zhidong and looked at his watch:

"Five minutes at most."

She gestured to her, wearing a rabbit hat, and the whole thing looked shady.

"Who else did you invite?"

Jin Hengyuan squinted at her.

"Guess."

Xiao Jinghuan looked like a sample, and her smile was very bright.

Jin Hengyuan narrowed his eyes: That mysterious light flashed in his sister's eyes since he returned to Hong Kong and sent a few short messages-it is impossible for ordinary people to make her so excited, let him guess?

An unexpected person for sure.

Or someone who is completely unlikely to be here.

Of course, it can't be Gu Lijun, this girl hates that person, please that kind of person, you can only come to spoil the scenery......

Therefore, the person who comes should be able to make everyone happy.

"Did you invite Mom?"

Su Jin gently said the conjecture in Jin Hengyuan's heart.

Xiao Jinghuan's eyes widened suddenly, and she was very surprised: "Sister-in-law, are you ...... How did you guess that? ”

"Guess."

Actually, it's not hard to guess.

"Huanhuan, you...... Did you really bring your mother here? ”

Xiao Zhidong asked anxiously with a strange expression.

"yes, yes...... I wanted to surprise you, but I didn't expect to be broken by my sister-in-law, Dad, Mom can come, are you happy? ”

As a daughter, she is happy and pleasing with a face.

The father was shocked, and it took a long time to respond:

"Happy...... Of course happy ......."

On the side, Su Jin looked carefully, probably really happy, Xiao Zhidong's originally happy eyes seemed to light up a little: It seems that mother-in-law Jin Yuan is still very meaningful to Xiao Zhidong.

"Wait a minute...... Huanhuan, come here......"

Suddenly, Xiao Zhidong lost his temper and hurriedly pulled Xiao Jinghuan to the side, lowered his voice, and asked softly:

"Why didn't you say a word to me beforehand...... Isn't it too casual to dress now......"

Xiao Jinghuan was stunned for a moment, but hugged his father:

"It's not casual, it's not casual...... My dad looks good in everything...... You don't need to look good at all...... We are a family, and the family should be casual and ...... naturally."

"Yes and yes ......"

The big man of the business world was there to respond gently.

The wind sent the words over.

Su Jin was in a very complicated mood when he heard this.

Because he cares about it, he thinks that his appearance is not proper - Xiao Zhidong, a man who has failed his wife for 18 years, will care about whether he is dressed appropriately in front of his ex-wife after 14 years of divorce, which is really embarrassing.

She turned her head to look at Jin Hengyuan, he took her hand, the smile on the corner of his mouth was a little bitter, he must have felt sad for his father!

Five minutes later, a masalati drove in, and it was none other than the former hostess of the villa: Jin Yuan, who got out of the driver's seat.

"Mom......"

"Mom......"

Jin Hengyuan and Su Jin greeted him.

Jin Yuan, who was dressed in a fashionable and elegant skirt, carried a beautiful bag, responded with a smile, and then turned to look at Xiao Zhidong and greeted him.

"Ayuan ......"

Xiao Zhidong looked at his ex-wife, who had been as beautiful as a flower for thirty-two years, and his eyes were a little stunned inexplicably, and then he sighed:

"Unexpectedly, you will come ......"

"What? Not welcome? ”

Jin Yuan asked lightly.

"No, it's not ......"

The business tycoon is extremely rare to show his still clumsy side:

"How could it be ......?"

"Huanhuan said, Xiaoyuan will come here today to celebrate your birthday. She said, if I don't come, I will never see me again in this life! ”

I see.

He looked at the intimate baby who was standing next to him and winked at him, and his heart swelled with thousands of emotions, he really had to thank his daughter!

"Older people don't like birthdays. After a year, you will be old for a year. I remember you don't love birthdays either. But since Huanhuan said it, then I have to come here. Happy birthday. ”

opened the bag and took out a delicate small brocade box, and Jin Yuan handed it over:

"It's a pair of cufflinks. Just buy it according to your previous hobby. If you think it's not good, don't let me see it when you throw it away. ”

In the past, Jin Yuan spoke very tactfully in front of Xiao Zhidong, but now, every sentence is like a thorn, stabbing people badly.

"Thank you."

Xiao Zhidong took it, and his voice was rare and gentle:

"Let's go in, come in and sit ......"

He got out of the way, very gentlemanly.

Under the eyes, there seems to be tenderness flickering.

Su Jin carefully found that Xiao Zhidong's fingers were gently rubbing the cufflink box......

took advantage of Jin Yuan and Xiao Jinghuan to speak, and secretly glanced at the gift, there was cherishment in his eyes, he thought he liked it, but he was restrained and didn't show it.

Alas, now, she finally fully believes: Xiao Zhidong is really an awkward man who is not good at expressing himself.

In this world, it is common for a family to reunite.

Who has no parents, who has no spouse, who has no children?

But this kind of thing is difficult for Su Jin, because she never knew which pair of parents they were. No matter how well the Su family treats her, it will always be the Su family, not the own family.

In fact, this is also a difficult thing for Jin Hengyuan.

In his memory, there was rarely a time when their family sat around and ate happily.

At this moment, he stood there, looking at the back of his sister holding his mother with one hand and his father with the other, walking towards the main house of the villa, and his heart turned up with infinite emotion.

"What's wrong?"

Su Jin saw his strangeness and asked softly.

"The most ordinary family reunion has a reunion dinner, I stretched out my fingers, and I can't count the ten times. Xiao Su, you don't know at all, my father and mother have been divorced for 14 years and have never been together again. Normally, there is no father when there is a mother; At a banquet with a father in his presence, the mother would definitely avoid it. Unexpectedly, today let Jing Huan facilitate it. ”

Jin Hengyuan sighed softly.

Su Jin listened quietly, and sighed leisurely, every family really has a scripture that is difficult to read......

As glamorous as their home, everything is not satisfactory.

God gave them wealth and status, but did not give them the most precious family harmony and husband and wife love.

She thought about it, suddenly took his hand, and gently rubbed it to persuade her:

"You should think of it this way: you're lucky compared to me. At least you still have parents who can see it, and a sister who can make a fuss about you. What about me, I have nothing. ”

"Wrong, you have."

Jin Hengyuan's eyes flashed.

Su Jin was stunned, and then smiled:

"Yes, I have. Your parents are my parents, and your relatives are my relatives......"

That being said, it's just a nice thing to hear.

It's not the same in essence.

Still, she was willing to go along with what he said.

"Hmm!"

Jin Hengyuan also smiled, and dispersed the inexplicable sorrow:

"Got in."

"Good!"

The two husbands and wives went hand in hand.

Dinner started very early and the dishes were very rich.

Jin Hengyuan feels that when a family gets together, sometimes, it is not about the quality of the dishes, but whether the atmosphere is warm enough.

I remember when I was a child, Huanhuan once said: "I think when my parents accompany me for my birthday, or when I accompany them for their birthdays, we can be together, that is the most satisfying." ”

But it never got my way.

Since that incident happened six years ago, he and his father have become strangers, and Huanhuan's idea has naturally become more and more difficult to realize.

In this way, it also proves that today's gathering is not easy and precious.

Therefore, Xiao Jinghuan was very lively, not only sang a birthday song to Xiao Zhidong, but also diligently handed a cake to his mother, and called the word "mother" very happy.

Because of Jing Huan's intention to please, Jin Yuan was full of joy.

A great dinner was a great meal.

Jin Hengyuan drank some wine, Xiao Zhidong didn't drink it because of his health problems, and only ate a little freshly squeezed juice, but Jin Yuan was drunk.

Without him, Xiao Jinghuan toasted hard, and pulled Su Jin to toast several glasses.

Jin Yuan was difficult to drink while riding a tiger, and finally got drunk into a puddle of mud, lying there motionless.

"Why are you drinking so violently?"

In the end, Jin Hengyuan blamed his sister for doing things willfully.

The younger sister was still holding a glass of red wine in her hand, her face was very red, and she laughed innocently and shouted there:

"Happy! Of course, if you're happy, you have to drink more......"

"Crooked."

Jin Hengyuan wanted to help his mother into the guest room, but when Xiao Jinghuan saw this, he stumbled, came over and pulled him away, and said with a big tongue:

"Brother, you, you, you...... You are not allowed to move...... Don't move...... Sister-in-law is almost drunk, you help your sister-in-law back to your room, Mom, there is Dad......"

Is Su Jin drunk?

No, she's not drunk at all, she's far from being drunk, she's just a little dizzy.

Su Jin knew it in his heart, and he also heard it, that girl seemed to be intent on creating an opportunity for her father and mother to be alone.

This doesn't seem to be a good fit!

The mother has already married another, and the father also has his own marriage - Jing Huan is doing this, it is just nonsense.

Su Jin glanced at it: her mother-in-law was already drunk, and her father-in-law was leaning on the side, staring at her deeply, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

She thought that Jin Hengyuan would stop it, but as a result, he glanced around, turned his head to help her up, and said in a low voice:

"Help you to my old room and rest for a while......"

Xiao Zhidong doesn't know how many years he hasn't been so close to Jin Yuan.

Close enough that tentacles could touch her.

"Xiao Huan, little villain, help my mother to sit in the garden...... Fill me like this, scoundrel...... How do you tell me to go back...... Xiaoyuan, find someone to take me home...... I don't spend the night here...... This is not my home. ”

Jin Yuan grunted, her voice a little muffled.

The people in the restaurant have long since disappeared.

Jing Huan climbed upstairs, Jing Heng also helped his wife to leave, the housekeeper was sent by him to make tea, and no one from the staff dared to harass him.

He went up to help her.

She leaned against him, dizzily followed his rhythm and went out, and sat on the swing that Huanhuan loved to sit on.

Actually, that's where she likes.

In the past, she loved to sit on it and swing, and Jing Heng would help push and push on the side......

After having Huanhuan, it was often she and Huanhuan who sat on it, and Jingheng was enslaved - his son, who can now control anyone, is willing to be bullied by these two women alone......

Well, rather, that's not bullying, that's a sign of love.

Xiao Zhidong helped her onto the swing.

"I asked someone to prepare some hangover tea, Ayuan, drink some......"

The housekeeper sent the tea, and Xiao Zhidong personally delivered it to Jin Yuan.

Jin Yuan felt dizzy, turned his head to look, and felt a little uncertain, the man's face was infinitely enlarged in front of him, warm, not old-fashioned, and not cold.

Oh, it turned out that it wasn't Huanhuan, it was Xiao Zhidong.

She frowned inexplicably.

A cup rested on the swing seat, a little familiar.

It seems that it is still the set of exquisite tea sets she bought when she was in the past, which is the pattern she likes.

She and he rarely share a hobby, and tea is the only preference.

However, she is a enjoyer, and likes to choose good tea sets, good tea, and good environment tea; As for him, he only pays attention to the quality of the tea, and doesn't care much about anything else.

"Still using this tea set?"

It's been thirty years!

"Well, this is your second birthday present to me. It's also one of my favorite gifts. ”

He replied in a low voice.

"Hah!"

Jin Yuan smiled strangely, looked at the starry sky, sighed long, and muttered:

"Favorite?

"Do you have a favorite?

"Of all the things I buy, how many things do you look at?

"People say I'm picky, I don't think it's right, the most critical is always you.

"No matter how much I try to please you, it's useless. There's nothing you like.

"Now, you actually say it's your favorite."

Xiao Zhidong was silent, and suddenly remembered that this woman had been with him for eighteen years, and he never seemed to have expressed his preferences.

In those years, they gathered less and left more, and they have been wasting the years, and they have never let the two hearts get close.

She once said that it was the walls of his heart that were so thick that he lost the ability to perceive, and could only live in his own besieged city forever.

When she gets tired, he wants to break through the wall and become one with her world.

But fate didn't give him this chance.

"Yes, that's my favorite. I've always wanted to tell you, but I've never had a chance to tell you......"

He looked at the woman who was still beautiful thirty years later, and said softly:

"I like everything you give me."

"Don't say nice to make people happy...... I have self-knowledge ......"

Under the bright light, her face was neither wrinkled nor pigmented...... She closed her eyes, bent her lips and mocked, she was charming, but she didn't believe what he said, she hurt herself, and then said:

"Xiao Zhidong, you never pushed a swing for me......"

The magnitude of the jump in this topic is a little too outrageous.

However, it is the truth.

"Do you want me to push you now?"

"Hmm!"

Jin Yuan nodded.

"Good! I'll give you a push. ”

He moved the cup of tea to a nearby stone bench and gently pushed it up.

As for her, just leaning on it.

The wind is clear and the moon is bright, and the silver shines brightly.

The artistic conception is incredible.

And he peeked.

When he used to be able to see in the bright light, he was busy with messy things; Later, she could no longer get close, she became someone else's wife, his wife, he could only find it in his memory.

Wait until you lose it to know the value of what you have.

The price is too tragic.

"I'm sorry, Ayuan."

She seemed to be asleep, and he stopped and sat down on the side.

After losing her, he often swings alone, imagining that she is still around.

"That's what I want to say to you ...... most"

He stretched out his hand, slowly touched her hairline, and stroked it gently:

"It's me who doesn't cherish you well enough, it's me who ruined this family, and it's me who is ashamed of you......"

A low whisper, tearing the heart.

The regrets in life were created by him with his own hands.

To this result, he sighed not only deeply.

And at this moment, this desire to hug her again occupied his thoughts.

endured and endured, and in the end, he still hugged her into his arms, but his nose was sour.

This stolen hug has become the best gift he has received in recent years.
