Lin Wang's parents live in another district of Hangzhou, and it takes about an hour to get there by subway.

Lin Wang slept lazily as usual in the morning, and didn't get up and go out until ten o'clock.

When he got home, it was almost just in time for lunch.

He is very familiar with this set of operations, and has obviously been tested countless times.

Wu Yuerong opened the door and saw Lin Wang, paused for half a second, and couldn't help but glance behind him.

"See what?" Lin Wang thought that someone was quietly following behind him, but when he looked back, there was nothing.

"Tang Xiaomian didn't come?" Wu Yuerong was holding a spatula in her hand, her expression a little disappointed.

"I've only been with her for a long time, how can anyone come to the door so quickly, everywhere, everywhere."

Lin Wang entered the door to change his shoes and glanced towards the living room, "Where's my dad?" ”

"I'm going to your uncle's house, and I'll be back soon."

After Wu Yuerong finished answering, she continued to care about his lifelong affairs, "What is Tang Xiaomian doing at home, do his parents know about you together?" ”

"Uh......" Lin Wangqu scratched his cheek, thought for a moment, and felt that there should be no problem in this regard, "The situation in her family is a bit special......"

"Special, what's special?"

"Her parents left early, and she was raised by her relatives."

"Gone?"

"That's what you mean by that."

"That's ......" Wu Yuerong frowned slightly and tilted her head to look at him, "So she's alone now?" ”

"Almost." Lin Wang nodded.

"Then today on the winter solstice, you won't bring her home?!" Wu Yuerong's eyes widened, and she couldn't help but raise her voice.

"......" Lin Wang was powerless to refute, caught a glimpse of the spatula in her hand out of the corner of her eye, and immediately changed the topic in a voice, "Is there still vegetables burning in the pot?" ”

"You ......" Wu Yuerong saw through his little trick at a glance, but she couldn't ignore the dishes that were simmering in the pot, her expression became anxious and angry, "I'll tell you later!" ”

She glared at her son, turned and hurried back to the kitchen.

"Whew......" Lin Wang breathed a sigh of relief, walked to the sofa in the living room, sat down, and turned on the TV.

As long as you get through the emergency just now, it will be a phased victory.

After that, if Wu Yuerong wants to mention Tang Xiaomian's matter again, her emotions will not be as excited as just now, and her words will be much more tactful.

On the coffee table is a snack plate filled with all kinds of fruits and snacks, which is enough for one person to eat.

Wu Yuerong is unforgiving, but she is actually quite concerned about her son's homecoming.

Lin Wang smiled, grabbed a handful of sunflower seeds from the snack plate at random, and watched the TV and ate melon seeds.

Five minutes later, there was a sound of a lock turning in the direction of the door.

Within a moment, Lin Wang's father, Lin Weifeng, walked into the living room with a bag of things.

When he saw Lin Wang on the sofa, his footsteps paused slightly, and then he said with a smile: "It's quite early." ”

"Well, just to get back for lunch."

Lin Wang threw away the melon seed shell and glanced at the bag in his hand, "What's that?" ”

"The fresh beef that your uncle brought over and stewed it at night."

Lin Weifeng put aside the bag containing the beef, walked slowly to him and sat down, and grabbed a handful of melon seeds, "Listen to your mother, have you found a partner?" ”

"Well, we've been talking for just a few days."

"Where?"

"It's just us, her house is quite close to where I live, and it's very convenient to meet each other." Lin Wang said casually.

"Oh, that's good."

Lin Weifeng responded, absentmindedly watching the advertisements on TV, was quiet for a moment, and couldn't help but turn around and ask, "When will you bring people back for a meal together?" ”

"Huh? Oh, huh...... I'll go back and ask her for her opinion and discuss the time, but it will definitely not work recently. Lin Wang said helplessly.

In the face of his parents, he obviously couldn't use a perfunctory way to get past with mud, so he could only delay this matter as much as possible to see if there would be any change in the future.

"Don't delay it too long, take it home when you should take it home, you're not too young, if it's appropriate, get things done early."

“……”

Lin Wang was speechless and choked.

He felt like he shouldn't be home today.

After a while, Wu Yuerong came out of the kitchen and couldn't help but be angry when she saw the two of them lying leisurely on the sofa and watching TV with melon seeds.

"How many times have you said that don't eat snacks before eating, don't eat snacks...... Do you want to eat? ”

"Eat, eat, eat, how can you not eat!"

Lin Weifeng threw all the melon seeds in his hand back into the snack plate, stood up with a smile, raised his hand and pointed at Lin Wang, "The melon seeds were all given to me by my son, so I ate a little bit with him." ”

“？” Lin Wang looked at him stunned, speechless.

My father is still so shameless.

Wu Yuerong was also very aware of her husband's virtues, glared at him angrily and funny, turned around and walked back to the kitchen:

"When it's time to eat, bring all the dishes to the table."

"It's coming!"

Lin Weifeng shouted, sat down again, and patted Lin Wang's arm, "Go and help your mother." ”

"......" Lin Wang sighed and silently got up to follow.

He's used to it.

……

During the meal, Lin Wang's parents didn't mention Tang Xiaomian's matter again, but casually talked about some parents' shortcomings, and discussed the New Year's arrangements by the way.

After eating, Lin Weifeng said that he was going to the neighbor's house to visit the door, put down the dishes and chopsticks and left directly.

Lin Wang glanced at his mother and silently got up to wash the dishes.

He's used to it, too.

According to the words of the second elder, this is called tempering.

No one wants their children to grow up to be a wreck.

As a result, this tempering is more than ten years without end.

After everything was cleaned up, Wu Yuerong called Lin Wang to the sofa again.

"When will you bring Tang Xiaomian over?" Wu Yuerong asked.

"Uh...... It's hard to say. Lin Wang scratched his head.

"Then it's New Year's Day, and everyone will be free then." Wu Yuerong made a decision.

"I—I'll ask her opinion again, and I'll get back to it." Lin Wang never dared to agree.

It's okay to pretend on WeChat, after all, the other party can't see the real person, and it's difficult to see the problem, but if you really want to bring people home, maybe you will be recognized by the other party because of some details.

Before a lie becomes a bigger lie, it is also a way to tell the truth as soon as possible.

But the problem is that he will have to continue to contact Tang Xiaomian in the future, and even take care of each other, without this identity as a couple, he can't say anything.

After thinking about it, he felt that this lie still had to be maintained.

"Do you have any other photos of Tang Xiaomian in your phone, show me, and when the time comes, you can send a few to your aunt and them, so that they don't have to come to me every day." Wu Yuerong said suddenly.

"Ah, this...... There should be, I'll look for it. Seeing that the other party took the initiative to change the topic, Lin Wang was naturally happy to do so, and without thinking about it, he directly took out his mobile phone and rummaged through it.

He doesn't usually take pictures, but when he encounters footage worth recording, he still chooses to save them with his camera.

Tang Xiaomian's girl is so good-looking, and there are naturally a lot of pictures worth recording, so he took a lot of photos.

Wu Yuerong poked her head over and stared at his phone screen.

"This is what I photographed with her at a convenience store...... This was taken when I was eating barbecue with her and Li Weiqing...... And this one, I took it when she was drawing, she's a painter, I told you before, right? ”

"Wait, don't move yet!"

"Ah, what's wrong?" Lin Wang paused.

"This photo ......" Wu Yuerong pointed to the photo of Tang Xiaomian's painting, and her tone was a little strange, "It was taken at night?" ”

"It seems to be ......"

"Where is it in your bedroom?"

"Uh......" Lin Wang realized that he had made a very serious mistake.

His mother had been to his house before and knew what his bedroom looked like.

The point is that he also took a picture of the night scene outside the window in this photo......

"Did she ever sleep with you?" Wu Yuerong turned her head to look at him, her expression was very serious.
