Chapter 70: Making Amends
For a while, Lu Ao's heart was complicated and inexplicable, and Tang Yi looked at Lu Ao's somewhat calm and incomprehensible face, and looked uneasy.
Lu Ao drove the car, he didn't know what to think, and the direction he drove to was no longer the direction to the restaurant. Tang Yi saw it, and he didn't talk much, now he didn't care where Lu Ao was going to drive, this was not the point.
Looking at Lu Ao's obviously sinking face, Tang Yi was worried about whether Lu Ao was angry, because he seemed to be a little childish and concealed.
However, he was really embarrassed to say that although he was very hopeful in his heart, he always felt that what he asked for seemed a little bad, and it also seemed that he was too unreserved.
Although, men may not need to be reserved, Tang Yi still can't be so open!
"I'm sorry, Lu Ao, don't be angry, I didn't mean to hide it from you. Otherwise, you can just take it as if there was no such thing, we just had a meal, walked around the mall, and now it's time to go home. Do you feel better like this? ”
Tang Yi felt that his mind was in a mess, and every time he faced Lu Ao's calm and deep expression, Tang Yi was flustered and even incoherent.
In his heart, he seems to cherish Lu Ao too much, so he is afraid that Lu Ao will be angry, especially when Lu Ao's mind is completely incomprehensible.
"Lu Ao ......" Tang Yi even had some thirst, he just regarded today as his birthday in his selfish heart, hoping to spend it with Lu Ao, he never thought of making the atmosphere so bad, so that he felt a little regretful.
Hearing Tang Yi so powerless, and even with some chagrin, Lu Ao finally came back to his senses from his deep thoughts, turned his head to look at Tang Yi's nervous expression, and said in surprise: "What are you talking about?" It's a good thing for you to celebrate your birthday, why should I be angry, I'm just thinking about how to make up for it! ”
"Huh?" Tang Yi was stunned for a moment, and looked at Lu Ao a little confused, "Is that so?" ”
"It's not like that, it's like that!" Lu Ao glanced at Tang Yi, and the corner of his mouth twitched with a smile, "Tang Yi, you are really strange, you think about some mess every day, shouldn't you be in menopause!" ”
"Ah, do men have menopause too?" Tang Yi didn't mind Lu Ao's jokes, but the focus of his attention was a little strange, which made Lu Ao look at him in surprise, and then couldn't help laughing out loud.
"Tang Yi, you man, you are really ......" stupid and cute!
"Don't laugh at me! Really, every time you sink your face, my brain feels like a mess of mush. I can't guess why, so I'll look for problems from me, and naturally I'll think about it. Tang Yi didn't care about Lu Ao's ridicule, on the contrary, he took this issue very seriously.
"Then your imagination is too rich!" Lu Ao shook his head amusedly, "Okay, don't talk about this, I'll take you to a place now." ”
"Where are you going?" Tang Yi looked at the unfamiliar environment on the side of the road and asked blankly.
"You'll find out later!" Lu Ao deliberately left some suspense, just at this time Lu Ao's phone rang, and after seeing that the caller ID was Lu Ziqian, Lu Ao made a booing gesture to signal Tang Yi, then put on the Bluetooth headset and pressed the call button.
"Hey, Dad, are you back?" Lu Ao opened his mouth and asked directly.
"Well, I just got home and I'm eating something!" At this time, Lu Ziqian was sitting at the dining table, holding a pot of seafood porridge that was still hot, picking up the big soup spoon used to hold the soup inside, and eating it directly.
"Okay, there's a lot of food on the table, you can have someone warm it up for you. Auntie has bone broth in the kitchen, and it's still hot on the fire, so you can drink some to warm your body. Lu Ao nodded, and said such homely words with a serious face.
Lu Ao like this, to be honest, Tang Yi has never seen it, in his eyes, Lu Ao is elegant and noble, and such a trivial and homely appearance is really strange.
However, the way Lu Ao said these words did not give people a sense of disobedience, but a natural expression of true feelings. It is completely different from the verbosity of those who love to nag women, but it is a kind of sensual tenderness.
Although he knew that the person Lu Ao was calling was his father, Tang Yi was really envious and even a little jealous in his heart.
Tang Yi looked at Lu Ao without blinking, wanting to imprint all his tenderness at the moment in his heart, but Lu Ziqian, who was envied over there, didn't feel how lucky he was at all.
Nodding comfortably, Lu Ziqian said while eating: "Well, I know, someone has already made it." Oh yes, didn't you say there's something to say, when are you coming back? ”
"Originally, yes, but I still have something to do, and I may not be able to go back! However, it's not a big deal, wait until next time, and then talk about it in detail! ”
Originally, Lu Ao wanted to tell Lu Ziqian about these things in time, but he really couldn't leave the current situation.
He still has to go back to the army in the evening, so he doesn't want Lu Ziqian and them to wait longer, just wait for him to get everything done, and talk about it after he comes back from the army.
"Are you out there with your friends?" Lu Ziqian wiped his mouth, he didn't care who Lu Ao was with, but this was the first time that Lu Ao had postponed what he was going to tell them because of his friends.
No matter whether what Lu Ao wants to say is very important, this is the first time in this situation, so Lu Ziqian is a little curious, what kind of friend can make Lu Ao pay so much attention.
"Well, yes. My friends and I are still outside, and it may be late to go back, so don't wait, and rest early after eating! ”
"Okay, that's whatever you want!" Lu Ziqian said casually, swallowed the mouthful of soup in his mouth, and said a little sullenly, "Fu Rongxi hasn't come back yet, I have to look for him in a while to see what the situation is?" ”
"Haven't you gone back yet?" Lu Ao glanced at the time, frowned slightly, and asked with some concern, "What's wrong, what's happened recently?"
"It's okay!" Lu Ziqian replied very simply, "I may have been busy with two transactions recently, so I was late." That's it, you play, hang up! ”
Without waiting for Lu Ao to ask anything more, Lu Ziqian hung up the phone directly, Lu Ao couldn't help but guess in his heart, but then he signaled himself not to think too much, even if Ji Chen wanted to fight the idea of the Rong Gang, he shouldn't be able to take care of it now.
Putting this aside, Lu Ao's mood was much lighter, and the expression on his face eased again.
After driving for a long time, Lu Ao took Tang Yi to a particularly large manor in the suburbs. The environment in the manor is quiet, like a private garden, and every tree, every flower, every pavilion, and every lake in it is carefully designed according to the feng shui pattern.
Lu Ao drove the car into the manor, got out of the car and took Tang Yi to stroll along the manor path, and at the same time Lu Ao made a phone call and ordered some things inside.
The cold wind was a little cool, and with every breath, a thick white mist could be seen under the light of the dim street lamps on both sides. Lu Ao saw Tang Yi shrinking his hand a little coldly, so he couldn't help but reach over and hold one of Tang Yi's hands in the palm of his hand.
"......" Tang Yi was a little stunned, and looked up at Lu Ao stupidly.
"Come, let's go over here!" Grabbing Tang Yi's hand, Lu Ao took him and strode forward, walking on the high slope of a lawn, Tang Yi saw that below the lawn was a cool lake, the moon was reflected in the water, and the mottled lake surface was like transparent and shiny amber.
Lu Ao took Tang Yi down, there were a lot of dried reeds and some plants that Tang Yi didn't know by the lake, and the dead branches and the lake water set off each other, although they didn't see the style of the past, but they also had a unique charm.
At the lake, Tang Yi looked at an unknown plant surrounded by a big stone, although the plant had dried up, it still looked good.
"These are lavender, more blue and purple, but there's another one over there with red and pink flowers." Lu Ao saw that Tang Yi admired these flowers very much, so he stretched out his hand and pointed to the water's edge on the side, and explained to Tang Yi.
"Is it really lavender?" Tang Yi was very surprised, due to the dim environment, looking at the bunches of dark flowers on the branches, Tang Yi was not sure, hearing Lu Ao say this, Tang Yi became excited, "It's the first time I've seen the whole lavender, it looks like there's a lot of here!" ”
"Most of the lakesides are, and the scenery by the lake is really nice in summer and autumn when the lavender is in full bloom." Lu Ao said casually, not caring very much.
"yes, it's so beautiful now, and when the lavender is in full bloom, it must be a beautiful view!" Tang Yi was overjoyed, his eyes full of joy and yearning.
"Do you like it very much? If yes, then next year you can come and see when the lavender is in full bloom. ”
"yes!" Tang Yi was excited, "You tell me what kind of place this is, what park or scenic area, and I'll find it when the time comes!" ”
"Huh!" Lu Ao was a little surprised, didn't Tang Yi see it, "This is not a park or scenic spot, this is a private place." ”
"Ah, is it?" Tang Yi was a little surprised, "This place is so big, I thought you brought me to a scenic spot in the suburbs!" But you say it's a private place, isn't this ......?"
"This is my family's manor here, usually no one comes, only in the summer, my dad will come here to escape the heat!" Lu Ao said easily, Tang Yi really couldn't even close his mouth.
Well, this way of showing off his wealth, he accepts!
"You said this is your family's private place, so when the lavender blooms next year, can I still come and see it?" Don't blame Tang Yi for being unproductive, it's just that that kind of scene is too beautiful to think about, he really yearns for it.
"Why not, not only can you come here, you can also stay here and look at it casually." Lu Ao generously said that there was nothing that could not be done.
"That's great, then you're welcome, you must invite me then." Tang Yi was overjoyed, looking at Lu Ao and said excitedly.
"Okay." Lu Ao smiled and nodded, and the look in his eyes seemed to have a doting look in his eyes that made Tang Yi think he was dazzled.
