Chapter 54: Putting Yourself in the Right Position 01
Lu Yao stood in front of the mirror of the bathroom sink, looking at his face in the mirror, he hadn't slept all night, and the blue halo under his eyes couldn't even bear to look at him, and his face was even more pale without a trace of blood.
And what makes her feel pale and powerless more than her face is the helplessness of "people go to the empty building".
Lu Yun put away all the things related to Yin Fangjie, her clothes in the cabinet, her favorite ornaments in the living room, her toothbrush cup in the bathroom, and her towel...... Everything she had was missing.
Although Lu Yao knew that Lu Yun was afraid that she and her daughter would see things and think about people, she was still angry and unbearable, as if this person suddenly disappeared from her side, disappearing completely without a trace.
"Ah Yao?"
Someone's voice rang out outside the bathroom.
The corners of Lu Yao's mouth sank, and the face in the mirror changed from pale to angry so fast that no trace could be found.
This house has three bedrooms, two living rooms and two bathrooms, Lu Junfeng now lives in a suite, with his own independent bathroom, Yin Fangjie also considered that he had changed his living environment, I am afraid that he will not adapt to life here, in order to let him not be too restrained, but also have a more private space, forced Lu Yao to give up the room. The other bathroom is connected to the living room and belongs to the guest bathroom.
Lu Yao once argued with his mother for a long time and was reluctant to change rooms, just because he was reluctant to "have an independent bathroom".
"Haruka ......"
He heard the sound of her opening the door in the room, and then he kept standing behind the door of his room and listening to the movement outside, Uncle Lu went to work early in the morning, and now there are only two people left in this family, himself and Lu Yao.
Lu Yao had been in the bathroom for more than an hour, and ten minutes ago he finally pushed open the door and walked to the living room.
As soon as she called her, she opened the door and walked past him with an indifferent face, as if there was no such person as Lu Junfeng in front of her.
She was wearing a white Korean nightdress, with a thin silk ribbon knotted at the neckline, revealing a clear collarbone, and the cuffs were puff sleeves that were knee-length, and the skirt gently brushed the white calves as she walked.
Lu Yao's waist-length black hair naturally hung down on both sides of her shoulders, and the two colors of black and white that were too conflicting and clear made her whole person look too thin.
"Breakfast...... It's already good. ”
Lu Yao's closing sound muffled Lu Junfeng's words.
From morning to noon, and then from noon to afternoon, Lu Yao stayed in his room, the door of the room of the two people was facing each other, sharing a wall, and the sound insulation was not very good, but Lu Junfeng didn't hear any sound from the room, as if Lu Yao was not in the room at all.
Breakfast was changed to lunch, and Lu Junfeng even prepared her favorite snacks for her, and he remembered what she liked to eat.
Seettalk's mille-feuille, Breadtalk's milk beans, Touch's ice cream, and Lillian's custard tarts, before she went home, asked for directions and searched for everything she wanted to eat in this strange city.
When Lu Junfeng finally mustered up the courage to knock on Lu Yao's door, there was a knock outside the door.
"Haruka! ...... are you" Xiao Meng flashed a trace of surprise on his face when he saw the person who opened the door for him, and then immediately remembered something, "You are Lu Junfeng?" ”
"Yes, ...... are you looking for?"
Xiao Meng reached out and grabbed Lu Junfeng's collar, and went straight to the door, after he walked around the living room and didn't see anyone, his hand gradually became stronger, and he asked sharply, "What about Yaoyao?" ”
The door of the small room that had not moved was finally opened, Lu Yao stood behind the door, and the two people standing at the door looked at her at the same time.
It wasn't until he saw Lu Yao that Xiao Meng let go of Lu Junfeng, he walked quickly in front of Lu Yao and hugged her into his arms.
"Are you alright? I came back to the city to look for you a few days ago, but my grandmother said that you didn't see anyone, so why didn't you see me? Well? Xiao Meng stroked Lu Yao's back with his hand as he spoke, and Lu Yao was held in his arms, silent, quiet as a cat.
Lu Yao's mother had an accident that day, and the phone at home couldn't get through, and no one bothered to go home to notify Lu Yao in order to rescue him, but Xiao Meng's father remembered that his son who was out of tune liked to find Lu Yao the most, so he tried to call his son who had just bought a mobile phone.
Xiao Meng's father sent someone to send Lu Yao to the hospital, he didn't enter the gate of the hospital himself, he was stopped by his father, he didn't fight with his father that time, and sat quietly in the car and waited.
He was born and his mother left, in fact, his feelings for his mother are not much deeper than the aunt who takes care of his daily life all the year round, if he has to say that he has received any "maternal love" when he grows so old, it is the care he received from Lu Yao's mother.
At Aunt Yin's funeral, Xiao Meng stood behind the adults, looking at Lu Yao's back holding the portrait, how much he wanted to walk to her side and hold her hand like in the past, he wanted to comfort her, but he knew that his "comfort" was miserable, because he had not enjoyed the love that his biological mother had poured into him for more than ten years, he didn't understand that feeling, so he couldn't understand how much pain it would be when he lost all this.
Only empathy will be deeply felt, so he can only look at her slender and thin back, and he can't do anything.
After the funeral, he went back to the city to look for her, but she locked herself in her room and saw no one, and her grandmother said that she didn't even want to answer Uncle Lu's phone.
Xiao Meng decided to give Lu Yao time to "heal", but he didn't allow her to be immersed in grief all the time and couldn't come out, Aunt Yin was gone, and Lu Yao was his last relative.
Xiao Meng pulled her to the sofa and sat down, squeezed her hand, seemed to be still angry, and then poked her face with his fingers, and said in an aggrieved tone, "Why haven't I seen you lose weight like this for a week?" How did Grandma and Uncle Lu raise you! Yaoyao, come home with me......"
Lu Junfeng was pouring tea for a while, and the tea spilled out, Xiao Meng's words fluctuated irrepressibly in Lu Junfeng's heart for a moment, making him feel a little panicked for a while.
Xiao Meng's gaze swept over the spilled tea, "You don't want to stay in this house anyway, you move in with me, I'll talk to Uncle Lu, he will definitely agree, okay?" ”
Xiao Meng looked at Lu Yao expectantly, he knew from his father's mouth that Uncle Lu had actually brought Lu Junfeng home, and his father's unintentional and vicious words had been hovering in his heart.
His father said: "Lu Yun is really interesting, his wife brought his 'son' home just a few days after she died, and he is still a person who indirectly killed his wife, why do you think he has such a big heart?" Sure enough, he is a person who understands righteousness and likes 'self-sacrifice'. ”
His father's words shocked him, with Lu Yao's temperament, if she was allowed to see Lu Junfeng, it was estimated that most of them would have to fight with Uncle Lu.
This father and daughter have the same temperament, they usually look very gentle and kind, but in fact, they are stubborn in their hearts, and they refuse to listen to anyone's words well.
Lu Yao, who had been silent, withdrew her hand from Xiao Meng's palm, and since the big quarrel with Lu Yun last night, she has not been able to let herself fall asleep.
She lay on the bed with her eyes closed, but she couldn't sleep, and when she was at her grandmother's house, she could sleep intermittently for a while, but when she returned to her own home, she was like a rare guest who spent the night at someone else's house, and felt that everything around her had become a strange environment and a strange person.
But not sleeping does not mean that she is not tired, she nestled in the sofa, looked down at her fingertips, a face buried in her long black hair, her voice was soft and slow, "I'm tired......"
"I know, that's why I want to bring you back, don't you like Aunt Zhang's dishes the most? There is also our swimming pool, which is at a constant temperature, you can swim at any time, and I can also ask my dad to let out his study, throw away all his books with window coverings, and move all the books and things you like......"
"Little Meng......" Lu Yao called softly, "I'm tired, but I won't go anywhere." ”
This is her home, even if she hates and resents it, it is still her home, grandma said she loves your father, if you love her, you should carry her love and love him together.
How sad would he be if he was gone?
A man who has lost his wife and is abandoned by his own daughter, as long as she thinks of how angry he treated her yesterday, her heart hurts, and she compares her heart to her heart, if she does this to him, his heart must be even more sad.
Lu Yun used to be the eaves of the house for Lu Yao, sheltering their mother and daughter from the wind and rain under him, as if with him, all the skyfall outside had nothing to do with them.
But now she realized that the eaves stood on top of the dangerous wall.
The walls collapsed and the eaves collapsed.
If she left him, would he still be able to stand without something to protect?
Grandma said that in addition to carrying her love, you must also carry the resentment in your heart, and the so-called "growing up" is not that you suddenly understand what the truth is, but that you gradually understand that when you grow up, before you make all the choices, you can no longer just think about yourself.
Xiao Meng finally put Lu Yao to sleep, and gently led her door out.
"Uncle Lu won't agree to you taking her."
Xiao Meng turned around and saw Lu Junfeng standing in the living room, in the living room where the lights were not turned on in the evening, the mottled light between the windows of the south balcony made the entire living room extremely dark and indifferent in the backlight.
"Uncle Lu?" Xiao Meng smiled narrowly.
He walked up to Lu Junfeng, since he was a child, his superior living conditions made him grow taller quickly, much taller than Lu Junfeng, he stared at him with disdain, and mocked: "Do you know how difficult it is to jump up the class? Let me tell you, what if you could live here now? You are not even as good as those phoenix men who flew out of the countryside, they at least rely on their own ability to achieve nirvana, but what about you? It's just a 'cheap son' who was picked up by Uncle Lu! There is a disgusting smell of dirt and slag all over your body, do you think you can walk into Lu Yao's life? ”
Xiao Meng patted him on the shoulder, and changed his sympathetic tone, "I advise you to put yourself in the right position, otherwise you will be sent back sooner or later......"
"Are you going to stay and eat?"
"What?" Xiao Meng was stunned by Lu Junfeng's words, as if he didn't understand what he meant.
"I ask you, do you need to stay for dinner? Uncle Lu is on duty tonight, Ah Yao is asleep, and there is a bit too much to cook for dinner, so you can stay and have a meal if you want. There was no emotion in Lu Junfeng's tone, as if he was really just asking Xiao Meng if he wanted to eat.
"What do you mean!" Xiao Meng felt humiliated from the other party's expression and attitude.
Lu Junfeng is showing off to Xiao Meng: No matter how much superiority you have, how close you are to Lu Yao, but I am the person in this family, I can leave you here for a light meal, because I am the host, you are just a guest!
Lu Junfeng's face seemed to be a little darker than the light in the living room, and he said to Xiao Meng: "I advise you to put yourself in the right position, don't ...... ruined Yao's reputation. ”
