Unexpectedly, when I was downstairs at my house, I actually met Lu Li and my mother talking.

Lu Li didn't know what he said, which made my mother laugh.

Recently, because of the house, my mother has been sad all day, and I haven't seen her smile for a long time.

I walked over, took the dish my mother was carrying, and greeted Lu Li, who I hadn't seen for a long time, "Lu Li, long time no see." How did you get here today? ”

"Let's take care of something." Lu Li's expression was a little unnatural, and he looked a little weak when he saw me.

I casually looked at his hand, which was dragging something that looked like an envelope. But before I could see clearly, Lu Li quickly rolled them into a roll and stuffed them into the pocket of his pants.

God is mysterious, I don't know what he's doing?

"Xiao Lu, it's almost noon, why don't you have lunch at my house, Auntie happened to buy a lot of vegetables today."

I hurriedly waved my hand at my mother, "Mom, no need, Lu Li ...... him"

Lu Li interrupted me, grinned and said, "Then thank you, Auntie, I just happened to go up to visit my uncle." ”

I looked at Lu Li in surprise, I thought that since he rejected my confession last time, he was not very willing to get along with me.

But he readily agreed to come to our house for dinner just now, I feel that Lu Li is strange today, what is strange, I can't say.

"Zhen, why are you stunned, the elevator is coming." My mom stood in the hallway and shouted at me, who was still standing in a daze.

I relieved myself and trotted into the elevator.

Before entering the house, I deliberately dragged Lu Li and asked in a low voice, "Why did you agree to come up for dinner?" Didn't you say ...... last time"

"Didn't Auntie say that she bought a lot of vegetables? I'll help share some so that I don't waste it. ”

It seems to make sense, but Lu Li didn't answer to the point, I obviously meant that the two of us had such a stiff quarrel last time, don't you feel embarrassed?

I gave him a blank look and asked, "Then what were you talking to my mother about downstairs?" She was smiling so happily. ”

Lu Li looked at me, "Oh, she said you broke up, let me introduce you to someone, I said that there are many young talents in our medical school, and you can choose when the time comes." ”

I was a little embarrassed, and pouted, "What kind of mother, my daughter is so happy to break up!" ”

Lu Li suddenly hooked the corners of his mouth, and his face was gloating.

I stared at him, but he didn't let me stride into the living room, greet my dad for a while, and talk familiarly.

In between getting my mom's hands in the kitchen, I kept looking into the living room. Lu Li is playing chess with my dad at the moment, chatting about world events while playing chess.

My mother also stretched her neck and probed, "I used to think that Lu Li's child was very good, but I didn't expect him to be even better when he grew up." Look at how much he talks with your father, people who don't know still think they are father and son. ”

I turned on the faucet and put the selected vegetables into the basin to rinse, "He is usually so stuffy that he refuses to say a word, and today I don't know what evil he has fallen into!" ”

"What nonsense are you talking about, you kid!" My mother slapped me on the arm, then glanced at Lu Li in the living room again, and praised, "The more I look at this child, the more I like it." Mom inquired for you just now, he doesn't have a girlfriend, and it just so happens that you two are high school classmates, I think you two are a good match, or ....."

"Mom!" I interrupted angrily, but my face turned red unconsciously, "I just broke up not long ago, and he doesn't like me anymore." ”

"I didn't really like your boyfriend who was a doctor before, he was so busy with work, he stayed in the operating room all day, how could he take care of his family? Mom wants you to find a man who can be there for you whenever you need him. ”

But Mom, this is the boy you like, when I needed him the most and wanted to find him the most, he disappeared for seven years for no reason! Now that I know the truth about his disappearance, and I know that I have indirectly caused him to no longer be able to play the piano, I have no face to continue to like him.

"Mom, I'll talk about this later, I just want to earn money to buy the house back for you now."

Unexpectedly, this meal was very awkward and embarrassing.

After the meal, my mother vigorously served Lu Li vegetables, and it seemed that she really treated him as a future son-in-law.

"Xiao Lu, eat more, look at you so thin."

I watched as my favorite braised pork piled up in Lu Li's bowl formed a small mountain, and unhappily poked the Huaishan slices in front of me.

"Auntie, I don't usually eat much meat," Lu Li saw my thoughts, moved the plate containing the braised pork to my bowl, and replaced the Huaishan slices in front of me, "I prefer to eat this Huaishan slices you made, which is particularly crisp and refreshing." ”

Is this man Lu Li? Does he usually have such a sweet mouth?

"If it's delicious, you can eat more," my mother smiled from ear to ear because she was praised, and suddenly remembered something, and asked seriously: "I heard that you went abroad to study after the college entrance examination, I remember that you played the piano very well, why did you suddenly go to study medicine again?" ”

Lu Li's injury once brought him indelible psychological trauma, my mother really can't open any pot.

I touched my mom with my foot under the table, winked at her, and motioned for her not to ask.

But the old man didn't realize it, and continued to ask, "In the past, your grandmother was proud of your piano playing, and the old man often praised you for your talent on the piano in front of us. Why did a good talent suddenly give up? ”

"Mom!" I couldn't help but shout at my mom, but it scared my mom out of the way.

"Zhenzhen, why are you so loud all of a sudden?" My mom blamed me resentfully.

Me: "......"

"I had a car accident after the college entrance examination, and the ligaments in my right hand were damaged, and I couldn't play the piano anymore. So I went abroad to study medicine, at least I won't be unable to find a job when I come back. ”

I was so shocked that I swallowed the meat without even biting into it.

The answer I had been searching for was said so lightly by Lu Li.

He smiled committently, but no one in the room, including my mother, could comfort.

In the end, it was my dad who calmly opened his mouth first, and he patted Lu Li's shoulder, "Don't be discouraged, young man, you are still young, the road is still so long, and there are so many choices." I think you'll definitely be very successful in medicine in the future. ”

My mother came to her senses, "Yes, yes, Xiao Lu, you are so good, Auntie believes that you can succeed in doing something else." ”

I was the only one who didn't speak, I looked at him pretending to be brisk, and remembered that Anne said that Lu Li had locked herself in the house without eating, drinking, or talking, and my heart was sour.

"Thank you, auntie, uncle."

After Lu Li finished speaking, he looked at me lightly, and I quickly lowered my head and pretended to drink soup, but in fact, I was so weak that I didn't dare to look up at him.

After eating, Lu Li sat in the living room for a while.

He looked at the suitcase next to the sofa and asked, "Uncle and aunt, are you going to go far away?" ”

This time it was my father's turn to speak, he sighed, "Hey, the investment failed a while ago and I lost my family's house, so I discussed with Zhen Zhen and her mother to go back to my hometown first." Zhen Zhen went out to rent a house. By the way, Zhen, how did you go out to see the house today? ”

"Oh, the house is nice and the rent is cheap. The landlord has been away from home for a long time, and it is said that a son has bought a house outside and will not come back. So I just pay for one room and I can enjoy the whole house. I said proudly.

Lu Li looked at me and opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything.

Lu Li got up to say goodbye, and my mother pushed and shoved me, insisting that I send Lu Li downstairs.

I squirmed out the door, "Wait, me, my mom asked me to drop you off." ”

Lu Li saw that I followed him into the elevator, and he did not refuse or agree.

When I was in high school, the two of us often took the elevator together, and Lu Li didn't like to talk at that time, but I would always chatter next to him.

But now, the two of us have our own thoughts, and neither of us has spoken.

But it's rare for the two of us to be alone, and I'm eager to ask him about his injury.

"You ......"

"You ......"

Coincidentally, we both spoke at the same time.

He and I were stunned for a moment, and after a while, I came back to my senses a little and lowered my gaze crampedly, "You can speak first." ”

"What kind of person is the landlord's son? Are you sure it's okay to live there? ”

"Huh?" I didn't expect Lu Li to ask this question, is Lu Li worried about my safety?

Seeing that I didn't react, he frowned, "A girl is outside, you should pay attention to your safety." ”

Lu Li's serious expression made me laugh, "The landlord is very good, I will pay attention to it myself." ”

At this time, the elevator door opened, and Lu Li walked out with steps.

"Lu Li!" I stood at the elevator door and called out to him.

Lu Li turned around and waited for my next step.

"Why didn't you tell us when you were injured? We, the friends, are with you, at least ......"

At least it will give you some comfort in those dark days of pain, at least you won't close yourself off, at least you won't leave the country out of despair.

"Because I don't want you to sympathize with me," in the long narrow aisle, a beam of light refracted in, and Lu Li was shrouded in a halo, so that I couldn't see his expression clearly, but his tone was like a faint sadness when he walked through the vast desert, "Ye Zhenzhen, I am no longer the Lu Li I used to be, and we can't go back." ”

After Lu Li left, I squatted alone in the corridor and thought about it for a long time.

I don't regret that confession.

Although Lu Li said that we will never go back, at least it has drawn an end to the love of the past ten years.

Eighteen-year-old Ye Zhenzhen didn't dare to say what she liked easily, and twenty-six-year-old Ye Zhenzhen said it for her.

Eighteen-year-old Ye Zhenzhen's most sincere wish is to hope that Lu Li can live a warm and happy life. Twenty-six-year-old Ye Zhenzhen still hides such a wish, hoping that no matter how things change in the world, Lu Li will always be as warm as ever.

(I don't know if you still remember that after Lu Li's art exam, Ye Zhenzhen and Gu Zijin wrote a letter to themselves eight years later.) That's right, it's eight years now. And Lu Li, the tsundere guy, actually ran back to get the letter, and took Zhen Zhen's letter with him by the way! But we're too big to forget about it. This plot will be put on the sidelines.

After reading this chapter, some people must wonder what Lu Li thinks in his heart, whether he likes Ye Zhenzhen or not, if he is hot and cold, he will be angry to watch. Maybe it's because Lu Li really likes Zhen Zhen too much, but because he was injured and became inferior, he couldn't help but want to care about Zhen Zhen, but he felt that he was not worthy of her. He was actually happy to learn that Zhen Zhen had broken up, so he agreed to go to Zhen Zhen's house for dinner. But after being asked about going abroad, he became inferior again, so he told Zhen Zhen in the corridor that he would never go back.

When I wrote this chapter, I was quite struggling anyway! ）
