Quiet doorstep for private dishes.

Xu's mother and Xu Li watched the car marked with the Sheng name plate out of sight.

Reunited with friends again after many years, Xu's mother was in a happy mood, and when she looked back, she still had a faint smile on her face.

It's rare that her son has time to accompany him out, and Xu's mother doesn't want to let him go back so quickly, so it is estimated that he will be soaked in those scripts again.

I booked a tea room.

The fragrance of tea in the porcelain cup is curling.

Mother Xu looked at Xu Lizhi, who was sitting opposite, and quipped.

"Seeing how tight you are at this meal, do you think I'm going to introduce you to a girlfriend again?"

Xu Lizhi frowned slightly: "Mother-"

"Okay, good, don't say it, don't say it."

Mother Xu grabbed the hair in her ear: "Don't worry, just now I just took you to have a meal with a classmate who had a good relationship with my mother when she was studying, and there is no other meaning." ”

"I know you don't like me and your father to worry about your affairs, and in the future, we just don't care."

Xu Lizhi slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing him like this, Mother Xu was angry, and immediately snorted: "But I want to officially introduce you to the daughter of Aunt Sheng just now......

"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"

Mother Xu only knew that the car accident that day was caused by Sheng Yuan, who happened to pass by to save Xu Lizhi, but she didn't know that the two of them were filming in the same crew for a month.

But her words made Xu Lizhi choke on a mouthful of slightly hot tea.

Mother Xu was startled and hurriedly handed over the tissue: "Be careful, it's okay." ”

"Nope." Xu Lizhi covered his lips with his palms on the side, and after tidying up, he lowered his eyes, not knowing what kind of emotion he should be for a while, it couldn't be complicated.

This is a rare time when Xu Lizhi is at a loss.

Xu's mother misunderstood his appearance.

"What's your expression?"

"Not happy? Or is it the same as the girls before me? It's annoying to know Aunt Sheng's daughter. ”

“…… No, no. ”

Mother Xu didn't notice that Xu Lizhi answered these words quickly, immersed in her emotions, and glared at her son with self-care.

"Even if you want to get to know someone, you don't have a chance."

"The little girls are all engaged."

“……”

The sound of the wind outside the window seemed to pause for a moment with these words.

Xu Lizhi felt that he didn't hear clearly for a while, or that he heard it wrong.

…… Betrothal?

In his mind, he subconsciously recalled the cold back of the young man who had a dinner party and hugged Sheng Kite into his arms that night.

"Lidea?"

"What do you want to talk to?"

“……”

Xu Lizhi's eyes returned to clarity: "I'm sorry, mother." ”

Mother Xu shook her head helplessly.

"You kid, what's the matter, can you still get distracted at this time?"

She then sighed.

"Your Aunt Sheng's daughter is beautiful, I mean really."

Xu Lizhi pursed his lips and did not speak.

"If our Xu family can return to Beijing a year earlier, maybe-"

After the next words, Xu Mu didn't finish speaking, picked up the cup and took a sip of tea.

"When the little girl was a child, many people rushed to hug her, just like a delicate porcelain doll, very beautiful, just ......"

"She's very recognizable."

Mother Xu frowned slightly, recalling.

"I still remember, when I wanted to hold her little hand, she was scared, but she didn't cry, your Aunt Sheng said that she didn't like to cry, when she was unhappy, she would only sit by herself, and she didn't like to talk, a small person, very quiet."

Mother Xu looked at her son with disgust: "How like you, you are a year older than others, you are about the same age, you are crying with tears all over your face, and you can't persuade you." ”

Xu Lizhi: "......"

He?

Xu Lizhi captured the key in Xu's mother's words.

"When she was a child? Have you seen it? ”

Behold.

He saw his mother give her a 'I knew it was going to be like this' look.

"We went to other people's homes as guests, not in Beijing, but in Jiangcheng's Sheng family."

Xu Li's silver-gray eyes suddenly flashed with a strong shock.

He blurted out, "When?" ”

Mother Xu was not angry.

"When you were six years old, you came back with us."

“……”

This time.

Xu Lizhi is really completely unable to hear anything.

There is a small buzzing in the brain.

The brain is racing, recalling.

…… Ever seen it?

He actually saw Sheng Kite when he was a child?

But why he didn't remember it at all.

It stands to reason...... Children as young as six or seven years old already have their own sense of memory.

But in his mind.

But he didn't have any impression of meeting Sheng Kite when he was a child.

Opposite side.

Mother Xu put down the porcelain cup in her hand.

"Lizhi, since you're done, don't continue to stay in the hotel."

"Our residence in Beijing is ready, let's go home and live, it will also be good for your sleep."

Xu Lizhi hummed.

Three days later.

The assistant came out of the elevator and panted to put down a box.

"Brother Lizhi, it's all here."

Xu Lizhi is cleaning up his new study.

The cardboard boxes all over the floor were the books he read when he was in France, and his mother asked them all to move from France to Beijing.

He has never liked these things touched by the domestic servants, all of which he has always done by himself.

Even the assistant was not allowed to interfere.

But when the assistant was about to leave, he suddenly patted his head, as if he remembered something, rushed to the parking lot, and when he returned, he had a paper bag in his hand.

"Ah, by the way, Brother Li, Madame said, this is also your book, I found it in her when I moved and cleaned up the house in France."

Xu Lizhi put down the things he was busy with, took them, and took out the contents of the paper bag.

- is a French fairy tale book.

Brown leather border, engraved with a line of gold edges, the cover is a childlike illustration.

Xu Lizhi was slightly stunned.

It was a gift from his father on his fourth birthday.

Xu Lizhi remembers it very well.

At that time, I liked this book so much that I put it next to my pillow every day when I went to bed and took it with me wherever I went.

But somehow, one day, this fairy tale book was lost, and I couldn't find it no matter how I looked for it.

For this reason, Xu Lizhi had a big temper.

The whole family went up and down, almost rummaging through the house or everywhere they had been, but they didn't see a trace of books.

Although Xu's father bought a copy for Xu Lizhi later, he didn't like it either.

All he wanted was the one he lost.

In the end, the matter is closed.

Xu Lizhi didn't expect it.

I found it from my mother.

And, after so many years, it can still be returned to him.

He stroked the lines of the cover with his fingertips.

Then.

He flipped it open, and as soon as he opened it.

Something got caught in the mezzanine under the cover and fell to the floor.

Xu Lizhi bent over.

Pick up.

It's a very well-sealed photograph.

-

Meanwhile.

"Huh? Little Ancestor, the chain in your hand seems to be glowing all the time. ”

Zhang Bai's eyes widened in surprise.
