Chapter 57: A Good Karma
Shen Linxi returned to the dormitory with two gift bags in annoyance. Fortunately, no one else in the dormitory was there, otherwise, they would have to be interrogated for another half a day. She put the gift in the closet and sat on the bed, remembering the day's events.
She was very angry with Shang Yuchen's attitude towards her, thinking that he was simply unreasonable. He actually thought that He Tianling might want to pursue her, but Shen Linxi thought it was complete nonsense. Just imagine, He Tianling has been crisscrossing the mall for many years, what kind of woman, he has never seen. If he wanted to find a lover, he would have found it long ago, and he wouldn't have been guilty of pursuing her at all.
Speaking from the heart, Shen Linxi admires He Tianling very much. He was born from the grassroots, but he started from scratch and fought his own world with his bare hands. Such a tenacious and tenacious entrepreneur is deeply impressed by Shen Linxi. And He Tianling himself is gentle, calm and serious, modest, and does not offend her in the slightest, and is completely a gentleman's style.
As for why He Tianling gave her these gifts, maybe it was because he had always been generous, and these things were not expensive for him as a rich man, he just used gifts to express his gratitude to her because she could take the time to accompany him to visit the school. However, Shang Yuchen had many suspicions.
When thinking of Shang Yuchen, Shen Linxi was both angry and unbearable. She was angry that he was indiscriminate, so she charged her indiscriminately, as if there was some unclear relationship between her and He Tianling, which made her feel that it was tolerable and unbearable.
However, what she couldn't bear was that Shang Yuchen had already relented to her later and wanted to ease the conflict with her, but she left in anger and left him there alone. She couldn't help but think back to yesterday, his angry but devastated expression. Today, she wanted to ask him if he was in a better mood when she saw him, but she didn't expect it to turn out to be like this.
What Shen Linxi didn't expect was that at noon the next day, she actually received a call from Shang Yuchen's mother, which surprised her.
Shang Yuchen's mother's voice was very gentle on the phone, she said that if Shen Linxi had time in the afternoon, she wanted to invite Shen Linxi to her house for afternoon tea, just the two of them.
She said it very easily, but Shen Linxi felt a little strange, but she still agreed to Shang Yuchen's mother's invitation. So, her mother drove to school and picked up Shen Linxi.
She drove her luxury BMW into a villa area, and when Shen Linxi looked at the luxurious-looking villas along the road, Shang Yuchen's mother asked Shen Linxi with a smile: "Linxi, are you angry with Yuchen?" ”
Shen Linxi glanced at Shang Yuchen's mother, who was concentrating on driving, and said "um" with some embarrassment.
His mother smiled and said, "Shang Yuchen came back to me last night, looking lost and depressed. ”
Shen Linxi didn't know if his mother meant to blame her, so she was a little uneasy in her heart.
Shang Yuchen's mother parked the car in front of a villa, and after the engine was turned off, she took her bag and a large paper bag from the back seat of the car, and said to Shen Linxi: "I just bought some snacks in the shopping mall near the unit, and we will eat together in a while." With that, she pulled Shen Linxi into the house.
Shen Linxi saw that the decoration and furniture in this villa were all exquisite, and every place was full of fashion taste, which made people forget to see it. Seeing that the spacious living room was very neat and clean, she said, "Auntie, you are so clean here." ”
Shang Yuchen's mother smiled: "Yuchen's side is also clean, right?" ”
Shen Linxi's cheeks turned red, could it be that Shang Yuchen told his mother about her going to his house for the night?
Shang Yuchen's mother didn't care about Linxi's reaction, she said: "I hired a terminal worker to come over three times a week to help me clean up, and Yuchen will also find her to clean up if needed." So, don't think it's Yuchen cleaning it himself. He rarely goes back there, and basically lives in school or works overtime in the company. ”
Shen Linxi concealed the embarrassment in her heart and nodded. Shang Yuchen's mother skillfully brewed the coffee, and served all the pastries and snacks she had just bought on beautiful plates, and then brought these things to the sun room on the first floor, and Shen Linxi also helped her take all kinds of things together.
There are several large pots of greenery in the sunroom, which are shiny and lush. The sun was shining outside the house, and the inside of the house was warm and pleasant, but her mood was still a little restrained, and her expression was unnatural.
She felt that Shang Yuchen's mother came to her today, it shouldn't be as simple as small talk, but she really couldn't think of what his mother would do, so she had to wait passively to see what to do.
Shang Yuchen's mother poured coffee into Shen Linxi and her own coffee cup, and handed a small glass jar with sugar to Linxi and said, "Yuchen said that you are not used to drinking unsweetened coffee, you can add sugar according to your preference!" ”
Then, she picked up her coffee cup, took a sip gently, leaned back comfortably on the back of the chair, looked at Shen Linxi, and said with a smile: "Linxi, my son has never been so careful and serious about other people, I am a little jealous!" ”
Shen Linxi embarrassedly added some sugar to the coffee and gently stirred it with a small spoon.
Shang Yuchen's mother suddenly remembered something and said, "By the way, I have a photo of him when he was a child, you can take a look." It's a good thing he didn't come today, otherwise, he would have to hide the photos from you. When Shen Linxi heard this, she was very interested.
His mother then brought several large photo albums, as well as a lot of awards and trophies. Shen Linxi looked at her with an excited expression, and she could feel her strong maternal love for Shang Yuchen.
She looked at Shen Linxi's photos of Shang Yuchen from childhood to adulthood, as well as the various awards he won.
Shen Linxi looked at Shang Yuchen's cute photos when he was a child, and he felt like he was in a different world, which was really strange and kind.
Her mother said with memories of the past on her face: "Linxi, it's not that I'm boasting, Yuchen has been very sensible since he was a child, and he can do many things that children of the same age can't do." Shang Yuchen's mother was proud when she said it.
Shen Linxi can understand her mood. It is true that, as his mother said, Shang Yuchen is a successful model, and any parent who listens to it will probably be envious.
So, Shen Linxi smiled and said, "Auntie, do you feel a sense of accomplishment when you see that your carefully cultivated son is so good?" ”
Shang Yuchen's mother took a sip of coffee, then smiled lightly and shook her head. She looked at Shen Linxi softly and said, "Some people say that there is a good fate and a bad fate between children and their parents. And I often think that the fate between me and Yuchen is a kind of good fate.
It seems that he has always brought me happiness, but no distress. Just now you said that I have carefully cultivated him, but if I tell you that I have almost never taken care of Yu Chen, do you not believe it? ”
Shen Linxi suddenly remembered that Shang Yuchen had told her about the origin of his ability to cook, and she knew a little in her heart. However, his mother now said that she had barely taken care of Shang Yuchen, and Shen Linxi still felt a little incredible.
Looking at Linxi's somewhat puzzled eyes, his mother's face showed a calmness that he hadn't seen before.
She reached for the coffee pot and slowly refilled her cup. She watched intently as the coffee slowly merged into a thin stream, silently melting into the cup.
And Shen Linxi watched the coffee in the delicate and delicate cup gradually rise, increasing little by little, and then increasing. She suddenly felt that Shang Yuchen's mother's thoughts seemed to have wandered away and flew away.
Seeing that the coffee in the cup was about to overflow, when Lin Xi was about to blurt out the words she wanted to remind, Shang Yuchen's mother's hand stopped in time.
She gently put down the coffee pot, carefully picked up the coffee cup, brought it to her lips, and took a few sips. Then, she raised her head and looked into the distance behind Shen Linxi, before she said slowly: "When Shang Yuchen was a child, I was very busy with work and often went to perform in other places, so I found a good friend to help me take care of him. Fortunately, at that time, his father was still working in the unit, so he could also take care of Yuchen when he came home from work.
Later, when Yu Chen was five years old, that friend was involved in a debt dispute at that time, and Yu Chen's grandparents and grandparents were working at the time, so he went to the children's kindergarten of his father's unit. It was his father who picked him up every day, and after returning home, their father and son were often inseparable, so Shang Yuchen was closest to his father when he was a child. ”
"I sometimes envy the relationship between them, and I am like an outsider. But to be honest, I was also too incompetent, I put most of my energy on work at that time, and every time I went home, I had to do housework, so I was so busy that I didn't have the time or energy to take care of Shang Yuchen. However, I am also helpless, I can't leave the career I love and only care about my family. Therefore, although I feel that I owe my son, I always think that I will make up for Qi Yang when I have time in the future. ”
Shang Yuchen's mother touched her forehead with her hand, and her expression was helpless, and she said: "After Yuchen went to elementary school, his father happened to have an opportunity to start a business, so he resigned from the unit without hesitation and started his own company. For several years after that, he was so busy that he had no time to take care of his son. ”
And from that time on, Yuchen was like a child who no one cared for, hanging the key around his neck all day long, and went home by himself. At that time, he went to participate in any extracurricular interest classes in the school. Our purpose is not to let our children learn a few more skills like parents now, but just because there is no one at home, we just want to let Qi Yang stay in school for a while, just for a while. ”
"Once the teacher said that Shang Yuchen has a very strong comprehension of music, so he began to formally learn piano. I can proudly say that he must have inherited my musical heritage. After two years of piano study, he began to participate in various competitions, and he was sure to win prizes.
Shang Yuchen will always be the first in all grades in school, and he has a very good relationship with teachers and classmates. When I went to give Yu Chen a parent-teacher conference, the teacher asked me to introduce to other parents how I raised him. ”
Speaking of this, Shang Yuchen's mother laughed softly, and she was immersed in happy memories.
