Chapter Fifty-Eight: Lingering Memory

At Yas's house, Min Qian had just gotten up, and he was still wearing a pair of soft plush slippers on a hot day. He opened Yas's door and sneakily felt inside, only to see that the room was empty, he even opened the toilet door, and there was still no one.

No one? He looked at his watch to confirm the time. My brother got up so early?

Min Qian went downstairs stupidly. Min Sister Yu had already brought breakfast to the table, and Gao Zhengnan was snorting a bowl of porridge freely, and his voice was terrifying.

But the old brother is not downstairs, when did he go out? So early?

"Mom, where's my brother? Went out so early? He asked, walking down the stairs with his hands in his trouser pockets.

"Isn't your brother in the room?" Min Jieyu replied nonchalantly.

"No, when did he go out?"

"Then when Xiao Si gets up, you can call him and ask him where he is, if he wants to come back for breakfast."

"Okay, I'll send him a message." Min Qian lazily slid the screen of his mobile phone, watching Yas speak, and made a "tsk" sound.

"Why are you so lazy when you call, who wants to read your message?"

Min Qian smiled and said nothing.

The two of them went to Yas's house with breakfast.

On the road, Yas kept paying attention to the emotions on Lin Xi's face. He had long felt that Lin Xi was in a bad state from the moment he walked into the food street.

Maybe she was afraid of being discovered, he thought. So, he resisted the urge to hold her hand to prevent her from being separated from him in the crowd. He walked ahead of her because he wanted her to see herself at all times, and she wouldn't feel like she was alone even if she wasn't walking together. Moreover, he couldn't guarantee what kind of eyes he would look at her all the time if he walked behind her. He knew that with her in place, his eyes must be filled with stars.

Silent......

He didn't know what was wrong, he had already confessed to each other, held hands, and even kissed, why wasn't it what he imagined?

The two of them went home in silence. Yas gentlemanly pushed open the big iron gate of the courtyard and waited for Lin Xi to advance. He looked at her with a slight smile, and each time it tugged at his heart on an abnormal trajectory. This time, it wasn't just as simple as embarking on an abnormal trajectory, his heart was tightly tensed, as if he was being bound by an elastic bandage. That feeling, like...... brought back a daughter-in-law to his family.

I'm so nervous now, so what if I'm lucky enough to see my mother-in-law one day?

He couldn't help but laugh when he thought about it.

But Lin Xi and Yas's mentality is completely opposite. Lin Xi quickly put away his smile, pursed his lips, and took a deep breath.

Every time I came here before, it was very relaxing, just to get rid of the loneliness of being alone at home or the oppression from Lin Minyu's aura. It's always been her little paradise. There is a gentle and kind aunt, a cute and naughty younger brother, and an uncle who can't be met often, but every time she comes, she can feel the warmth of her father. She suddenly felt heavy at the foot of the door, because Yas was beside her, and they held hands. So she didn't know how to face his family when she walked in.

Lin Xi looked at his smirk suspiciously, and also let go of his worries, and couldn't help laughing. She likes him, in addition to his sunny appearance before, his handsome appearance now, and his stupid appearance.

They entered the door one after the other, and the door opened by Yas still let Lin Xi go first. Hearing the sound of the door, Min Jieyu and Min Qian looked at each other, and Lin Xi was suddenly at a loss.

"You've already eaten? I also brought the wonton back. Yas said with a bright face, holding the wonton in his hand above Lin Xi's head, showing off his breakfast, as if showing off the people he brought back.

"Hee-hee is also here, come in for breakfast." Min Jieyu beckoned to Lin Xi. Lin Xi smiled back, but it was unnatural.

"Auntie, morning." Lin Xi changed his shoes and walked to the dining table to say hello to Min Jieyu. She knew how stiff she was when she walked over, just like she had caused some trouble and was found out by Lin Minyu to talk.

Min Qian lowered his head to eat without raising his head.

"Did you two meet on the road or did you go out for breakfast together?" As soon as Min Jieyu saw Lin Xi's restrained appearance and combined with the previous performance of Yas and Lin Xi when they were together, she knew that it was not simple for these two to appear at the same time, and she wanted to deliberately ridicule her.

Min Jieyu wouldn't mind if her child fell in love, after all, Yas will be eighteen years old next month, and he is approaching adulthood, so it's nothing to fall in love? In her hometown, there are many eighteen-year-old children who become fathers. Lin Xi is also seventeen years old, what an excellent child, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, cute and delicate, can cook, mix drinks, and it is best to marry home.

But Lin Xi seems to be much more old-fashioned than Min Jianyu, and in the face of Min Jieyu's ridicule, Lin Xi's heart is entangled. Because she thinks that all mothers will have the same mentality as their own mothers.

One afternoon a few months ago, she was suddenly called to the teaching conference room by the dean of students, and there was also her mother in the conference room, who was so busy that she would not even be absent from the parent-teacher conference.

Lin Minyu sat on the first chair facing the door, full of aura. She didn't know what mistakes she had made in school, and she didn't know what the director of education had suddenly called Lin Minyu and her to do? But Lin Minyu's murderous eyes when she saw her can still make her feel fear when she thinks about it.

She sat beside Lin Minyu obediently, and Lin Minyu gave her a letter and asked her to take a good look at herself. Then, as she read the letter, she listened to all the ridiculous statements of the dean. Of course, he can't be blamed for that, but he can only blame the humanistic pen who wrote the report letter for being so good, writing so vividly and impassionedly that she almost believed herself.

Lin Minyu listened to the "bitter heart" persuasion of the teaching director with a gloomy face throughout the whole process, and then asked her, "Is there nothing to explain?" ”

She kept her head down and was silent. She knew who did it, and she didn't want to have anything to do with those people or things anymore.

"Lin Xi, you are also a good student, you have a smart mind, there is really no need to think about such a thing now, calm down and study, get a good school in the future, and have a good job, which is much better than you are falling in love with someone now. You are still narrow-minded, you can't see long-term things, and you are not mature, you will be separated sooner or later, is it worth wasting so much time and delaying your studies now? The director knows your age, but if you like it, you can like it, no one can control this, but it can't affect others. When I received this letter, I showed it to Meng Wei and their class teacher, Mr. Liu, and Mr. Liu was going to be angry with you at that age. She worked hard to train Meng Wei for two years, and his grades dropped so much in his most critical final sprint stage, you said that it would be a pity if he was delayed by you. ”

Listening to the director's words, Lin Minyu's hand clenched the handbag tightly under the table, and Lin Xi's hand already felt her anger just by looking at her hand.

"Do you have anything to say?" After listening to the director's words, Lin Minyu asked her again, her eyebrows and eyes sharp, and her tone was cold.

Although she felt that the director's words were ridiculous, because of Lin Minyu's majesty, she still lowered her head and did not speak.

"Childish!" In the end, Lin Minyu only left these two words on her.

Coming out of the conference room, Lin Minyu asked Lin Xi for leave and took her home directly. The director also pretended to persuade Lin Minyu not to be angry and to reasonably solve the matter of early love. Lin Minyu didn't bird him, and led Lin Xi out of school directly.

On the car home, Lin Minyu asked her: "Let's find a place to sit for a while, you call the boy you like out, and my mother can talk to him and listen to his thoughts?" ”

It's abnormal, my mother's tone is gentle that I haven't seen for a long time, to be precise, she has taken off her aura since she got out of school, and has returned to the image of a loving mother several years ago.

But she was still panicked, she didn't know what Lin Min was going to do with Meng Wei. They actually don't have anything, she and Meng Wei made it clear before the Spring Festival, and they haven't said a word since the beginning of this semester.

"Mom, you don't have to go to him, I don't like him, I have nothing to do with him for a long time. He's quit too, and we don't see each other twice a week at school. Lin Xinuo explained.

"Don't you like him? He is so tall, has a good face, reads well, and can play basketball, all of which are the type you like. Lin Minyu's eyes were wrapped in solemnity again in the process of Lin Xi's explanation.

"I don't like him, you and the director can rest assured, I won't have anything to do with him."

"Do you really dislike him or are you afraid that I will find him, I just want to find him to see what his attitude is, you don't have to be afraid of me embarrassing him." Lin Minyu regained her gentleness and patiently explained.

"I really don't like him."

"Okay, so can you explain to me who that one in your closet is?"

Lin Xi's pupils shrank, and when she met Lin Minyu's eyes, her eyes were gloomy, but she didn't see anger and blame in her eyes. Is it a delusion? She actually saw a little distress in her mother's eyes.

She lowered her head and said no more.

Lin Minyu was also silent, and finally sighed deeply.

Lin Minyu didn't take her home directly that day, but turned off her mobile phone, bought her her favorite bubble tea, took her to the children's playground she used to go to when she was a child, played with her on the slide, took off her high heels and jumped the ocean ball pool with her, and took her to the skating rink in the park, where she stood next to her, watched her fall into a dog and eat, and then laughed at her stupid; Eventually, they went back to their grandparents' house to finish their meal.

In the evening, they went for a walk in the park with their grandparents, and Lin Minyu told her that when she and her father were in school, they often walked and dated in the park, and they left all the good things in the park at night.

"Hee-hee, can't be like me."

That day, she not only heard Lin Minyu's gentle words again, but also heard the deepest words that Lin Minyu had ever said to her.

She had listened to too many of Lin Minyu's serious teachings, and all the abnormalities of Lin Minyu that day were telling her that her mother was very disappointed in her. Since then, Lin Minyu's discipline and requirements for her have been reduced, she is very busy every day, and when she is not busy, she travels on business, otherwise she goes on a date with her uncle.

So she is very scared now, afraid that Lin Minyu will know, and even more afraid that Min Sister Yu will know, and afraid that Gao Zhengnan will know. She was so good in their eyes, and she was afraid that they would be disappointed when they knew, but she didn't control her heart.

Knowing that liking Yas is not a desirable thing, she just can't control herself to hold his hand. She may regret it, but she is not afraid of regrets. She was afraid that one day after taking his hand, she would have to let go again. And when she lets him go, she also loses everything about him.
