"You're acting ...... You're pretty skilled. ”

night

On the way home, Zhang Xueming asked abruptly.

The process of bringing Lu Zhengyi to the door today was smoother than she imagined.

However, under her mother's words, she did have some thoughts.

That is, Lu Zhengyi is too calm.

"Have you had a similar experience before?"

Sitting in the passenger seat, Zhang Xueming turned her head and looked at Lu Zhengyi, who was driving.

The street lamps on the side of the street crossed from time to time, shining on his face, whether it was his eyes or expression, it looked so calm.

"As long as you prepare the things that need to be prepared, you can do it smoothly."

Clearly feeling the gaze from the side, Lu Zhengyi replied softly, "As long as you have a serious attitude, many things can actually be considered in advance." ”

Attitude...... Seriously?

Zhang Xueming, who was going to ask carefully, unconsciously withdrew her gaze, and looked out of the car window unnaturally.

Inside the car, it's quiet.

Because the weather is getting colder, the windows on both sides are closed, so the inside of the car is almost an enclosed space, and it is very quiet when neither of you can speak.

Zhang Xueming sat there, staring out the window with unblinking eyes, looking at the people, scenes, and things that kept throwing backwards.

But his mind had already turned around, paying attention to the man who was driving the car next to him.

Warm.

Obviously not very close, but Zhang Xueming can still feel that the heating is turned on next to her, bringing warmth.

'Maybe it's because of practice or something?' ’

Thoughts crossed her mind.

But is he serious when he wants to close the distance? ’

With such a sincere attitude, he shouldn't have really been tricking me from the beginning. ’

'And he looks a little too strong, and when the time comes, ......'

Zhang Xueming's gaze subtly withdrew from the car window, and she glanced at Lu Zhengyi inadvertently.

But then, she paused again and turned her head again.

'Hey, why did mom ask me such a strange question!' ’

"Ding—"

And just then, a bell suddenly rang from inside the car.

Zhang Xueming's nerves tensed, and she trembled violently, startled.

Her expression was a little empty-hearted.

"Sorry, take the phone."

Lu Zhengyi glanced at Zhang Xueming, who was strange, as if she was frightened by the ringtone.

Although it was strange in her heart, she should not be such a frightened person, but she still said apologetically.

Zhang Xueming brushed the hair in front of her forehead behind her ears and replied casually, "No, it's okay." ”

Her eyes fell on the car monitor.

'Mountain view people. ’

Because Lu Zhengyi's mobile phone is connected to the car as a navigation, the contact person of the incoming call is displayed on it.

But then, a pair of wide palms appeared in her field of vision.

'Huh? ’

Zhang Xueming raised her head in a trance, and looked at Lu Zhengyi who picked up the phone very directly, without turning to the Bluetooth headset.

"Are you here to talk about Zhou Jie?"

Lu Zhengyi asked as he drove the car.

"Well, I simply met and exchanged identity information, and after registration, there was no contact with him."

A calm voice sounded from the car stereo, "Miss Zhou, I probably feel very ashamed." ”

Zhang Xueming sat silently in the passenger seat, and even the sound of breathing was unconsciously lowered.

"Shame, haha...... That's the age after all. ”

Lu Zhengyi replied with a smile, "If it weren't for the poor level, maybe she would be able to do it." ”

He didn't need to ask carefully, he could know what Zhou Jie was ashamed of.

After the change in the body, some people are born with the idea of superiority, which is not special.

Some people change, they will think about hibernation, they will think about hiding themselves,

But there are also people who think about things like finding their kind, huddling together for warmth, or even conquering the world.

It's normal, these are all normal.

But Zhou Jie's level is too low, and all of a sudden, the idea of winning over and organizing the team has become very ...... Immature.

It's like a girl in the second middle school who wants to trample the world under her feet, and when she puts it into action, she suddenly finds that she is not a very special one, and Tang Guo itself even has a relatively perfect management system to maintain order.

Then it's normal for shame to come out after that kind of hot blood.

On the other side, the mountain watcher was silent for a while before he spoke again, "...... Is the level poor? ”

Among the people Lu Zhengyi knew, he was the only one who seemed to have a better identity in this area, and he was the only one who was arranged to guard the mountain.

So the contact information he gave to Zhou Jie at that time was the number of the Guanshan Daoist.

"Forget it, I'm just telling you about it."

He didn't ask any more questions, "That's the case, she and the monk have already been recorded, and in the future, she shouldn't be able to do those things about organizing teams easily." ”

"Because you're the informant, I just need to make a return receipt call."

"That's it, I'll hang up first."

As he spoke, the Taoist was about to hang up the phone.

"You don't have to be in such a hurry, right? Governor. ”

Lu Zhengyi glanced at the time, "Listen to the voice, are you already busy and going back to the mountain?" ”

Compared with the previous phone calls, the tiredness in the voices of the people who watched the mountain was revealed.

This time, his voice was noticeably lighter, and he should have resolved the incident, or stabilized it.

"I can't reveal much, I can only say that it may be an old big guy."

The voice of the mountain watcher became vigilant, "But you can probably guess this matter." ”

After all, the news of this spiritual creature was revealed to them by Lu Zhengyi.

As for the fact that it is very powerful, he also analyzed it.

Lu Zhengyi laughed, "Don't be so outside, Dao Chief. ”

The mountain watcher paused, and then said very bluntly, "...... Director Lu, I think it's better for the two of us not to contact each other for a while. ”

"Or should I say, if you talk about these spiritual things, don't contact them."

"I'm afraid I'm getting more and more confused."

It's the truth.

I don't know when it started, every word and action of Lu Zhengyi has a special meaning in the eyes of the people of Guanshan Dao.

In-depth interpretation?

Something like this.

In general, people are not strong because they have the right to speak, but because they are strong, they have the right to speak.

And Lu Zhengyi in the eyes of the people of Guanshan Dao is becoming more and more mysterious and powerful, and the words he once said are becoming more and more profound, like a needle piercing into the heart and soul, making people unconsciously think about and deny the past.

This also led to those disagreements between the two, which would affect his practice from time to time.

Especially after knowing that Yu Wenxiu had also changed, he was even more chaotic.

In that way, you can also embark on the path of cultivation?!

And it's such a special change!

"yes......"

Although the words were straightforward, Lu Zhengyi didn't care.

Everyone is quite familiar with each other.

As a normal person, the Guanshan Taoist is a very enthusiastic person.

In general, such things are not spoken, and there must be a reason for saying them.

"Actually, in addition to cultivation, there are also some things in life."

Lu Zhengyi slowly slowed down the car until it stopped at the red light intersection, "I'm going to get married in a while, does the Taoist have time to participate?" ”

Zhang Xueming, who was sitting quietly, raised her eyes and looked at the car monitor.

“…… Is it so fast? ”

The voice of the mountain watcher came into her ears clearly.

"I remember, it's only been two or three months since you decided to get married, right?"

"The parents, the marriage room, the wedding ...... I remember that you have just finished these things, so you shouldn't have time to deal with them. ”

"By the way, something seems to have happened in the group recently, but you haven't participated in the discussion, so you've been ...... this time"

He seemed to remember something.

"Ang, the film has been reviewed, just take advantage of the review time to complete these basic steps."

Lu Zhengyi glanced at Zhang Xueming, who was sitting in the passenger seat, "I just went to meet my father-in-law and mother-in-law today, tomorrow, take Xueming to meet my parents, and the wedding time should be set after the film is released, probably from December to January." ”

"When the time comes, the rest of the crew will also come to participate."

"When the time comes, the Taoist can join them."

To participate in this kind of wedding, you still have to know someone a little bit.

Otherwise, it is certain that a person will sit in front of a table of people he does not know at all.

"In that case, I'll pass."

The people of the mountain view did not refuse.

Since they didn't plan to talk about the affairs of Xiangcheng in detail, Lu Zhengyi didn't ask, and after saying a few words casually, he hung up the phone.

"I thought you'd avoid me for all these things."

Zhang Xueming finally spoke.

"Although, even if you are a husband and wife, it is normal to leave some space between each other."

Lu Zhengyi explained, "But this matter is not necessary, you have to get used to it sooner or later." ”

Like everyone else in the crew, get used to the presence of ghosts, lower the old cognition, and let the new cognition occupy a high position.

"Speaking of which."

As if he had thought of something, he took out a red talisman from the small locker next to the stall, "This is what I asked the Taoist chief to help with the rest of the crew, it doesn't work, I don't know it very well for the time being, but you still wear it on your body." ”

"Huh!"

Zhang Xueming's expression froze, and she took over this talisman that looked ordinary on the outside like a treasure.

After knowing that there are some special things in this world, she has long wanted to ask for something to protect herself.

But because there is no channel, I can only give up.

"But, isn't that what you're going to give to the rest of the crew?"

After Zhang Xueming took the talisman, she asked in a low voice.

"Don't worry, they have it too."

Lu Zhengyi replied.

But looking at her expression, he seemed to understand something, "By the way, there are also father-in-law and mother-in-law, as well as my parents." ”

"Although with the current situation, ordinary people may not encounter a special event in their lifetime, but they still have to be a little safe."

"In this way, I'll find a time to go to the Qingniuguan and see if I can ask for more talismans."

Qingniuguan is one of the ancestral gardens of Taoist priests.

The master of the Taoist people who watched the mountain was originally from the Qingniu Temple, and later he was sent to the mountains of Jiangcheng to build a concept of cultivating the mind.

When Yu Liang went up the mountain, he also persuaded people to go to Qingniuguan for a few years to retreat.

Therefore, he is actually a person in that lineage.

……

Northern Capital,

At the door of an old house in an alley,

Lu Zhengyi carried his things and stopped.

Next to her, Zhang Xueming looked at the old house curiously.

Although their family is well-off, they didn't have the idea of buying this kind of old house back then.

This kind of house is good-looking, and it has a sense of time in the old times.

But it's really not as convenient to live as modern buildings.

"This ...... Shall I step over a brazier, or something, before I go into the house. ”

Zhang Xueming stood hesitantly at the door, staring at the doorrail stone that was as high as her calf.

"It's just that the house is old, and we don't have so many rules in our house."

Lu Zhengyi smiled and shook his head, and led her into the house.

Crossing the gate railing and entering the courtyard, a stone path appears in front of you.

On both sides of the stone path, there are lush lawns and potted plants.

In the main room, a man and a woman had heard voices and came out of it.

One is wearing a shirt, tall and mighty, and his facial features look fierce,

One was wearing a navy blue cheongsam, gentle and soft, and beautiful in appearance.

One is Lu Yiyong and the other is Liu Huiyun.

But at this time, they were standing under the eaves outside the main house, and their expressions were different.

Lu Yiyong's usual frowning brows eased a little after looking at the two people who walked into the house.

Next to her, Liu Huiyun's demeanor was a little dazed.

Her eyes did not focus on her future daughter-in-law, and she analyzed.

Instead, he kept looking at Lu Zhengyi, with a bit of strangeness, hesitation and apology in his eyes.

"Mom, Dad."

Lu Zhengyi carried his things and greeted the two of them very casually.

Lu Yiyong and Liu Huiyun paused.

Both froze there, as if they didn't know how to respond to the salutation.

"Uncle and aunt."

Fortunately, Zhang Xueming also shouted softly after approaching.

"Well, let's get inside."

Lu Yiyong nodded and motioned for them to enter the house.

Although he tried his best to soften his face, the seriousness and old-fashioned that he had become accustomed to all the years was not so easy to change.

And Liu Huiyun's eyes were always on Lu Zhengyi, from the time he entered the house, put down his things, and then sat down.

She stared the whole time.

And Lu Zhengyi glanced at her when he entered the house and shouted, and his eyes almost fell on Zhang Xueming at other times.

Didn't say, blame for a mother who hasn't seen her all year round.

Didn't say, expectation.

It is a plain relationship between mother and son under the maintenance of blood.

Inexplicably, she felt a sense of loss......

"I didn't know what my uncle liked, so I bought cigarettes and alcohol."

Zhang Xueming sat down next to Lu Zhengyi, "I heard Ayi say that Auntie likes old paintings and old books, so we went to the antique street together and tried to find something more vintage." ”

"But because neither he nor I are very good at these, I don't know if I have been deceived."

"Auntie, are you familiar with this aspect?"

As he spoke, he took out a few boxes from the delicately packaged bag and handed them over.

“…… Yes. ”

Liu Huiyun, who was looking at her son, was suddenly awakened by this call, "A little, I'll take a look." ”

She said casually and took the thing.

"It seems that it should be true, but the specifics need to be studied to be clear."

Liu Huiyun opened the box, looked at it absentmindedly for a few times, and then closed it again, "But Xiaoming, how did you two meet?" I haven't heard much about this matter, only occasionally from his father's mouth. ”

"This matter, in fact, ......"

Zhang Xueming replied with a smile, talking about her experience with Lu Zhengyi.

In the cooperation again and again, I slowly deepened my impression of each other.

And Lu Zhengyi was beside him, listening silently and not interjecting.

Yesterday, when I visited Zhang's house, he was the one who needed to perform, as the main attacker.

And today in the Lu family, Zhang Xueming is the one who needs to perform.

He's next to him, just to be an assistant.

It's just that Zhang Xueming's ability to talk obviously doesn't need Lu Zhengyi's assistance, from chatting about the process of understanding when drinking tea, to talking about future plans during meals.

She is very decent, and she seems to be at ease.

However, compared to Lu Zhengyi yesterday at Zhang's house, she really unconsciously regarded the process of meeting her future in-laws as a ......

"It's kind of like having dinner with a client."

Although she had lunch and dinner, on the way home, Zhang Xueming thought back on today's performance and unconsciously had such a feeling, "And I can see that you and your mother are really not familiar with each other." ”

At the end of the day, it was like yesterday at home, and my parents held their 'eating preferences', 'work persistence', and 'work and rest'...... All kinds of things that tempted Lu Zhengyi, she had never encountered them once.

But probably, it's not because the in-laws are too kind.

It's more like that they don't know Lu Zhengyi themselves, so naturally they have no way to test Lu Zhengyi's affairs.

The father-in-law was better, and after the father and son drank some wine, they chatted about the movie, and they were still very harmonious.

But the mother-in-law ......

Zhang Xueming tried her best to remember, thinking about the interaction between Lu Zhengyi and her future mother-in-law within a day of coming to the door today.

When eating, I sandwiched the dishes.

When drinking tea, I made her a few cups.

When I got home, I told her again......

There is little interaction.

Today's lunch and dinner were cooked by my parents-in-law and mother-in-law who called a special chef to cook at home.

The two of them don't seem to know how to cook.

"I told you so."

Lu Zhengyi replied with a smile, and accompanied her from these alleys and alleys to walk out slowly.

Zhang Xueming fell silent.

“…… When you were a child, you must have been very tired, right? ”

It took a while for her to try to speak.

In fact, she can imagine the process, and when she was a child, she was actually similar.

It's just that it's not that serious.

Although my parents are often away from home, because they are still in the same city, there are still many opportunities to meet.

But it seems that in the case of Lu Justice today......

"Huh?"

Lu Zhengyi, who had been observing her and was about to raise his hand, smiled dumbly, "How is it possible, the family has money, my parents are busy, I don't know how comfortable I am." ”

"I can only say that I am missing some of my growth experience, so I don't know them very well."

"Actually, it's okay to pretend to be familiar, but I don't think there's any need."

As he spoke, he paused, "As for what to say, as a rich second generation, I have never felt family affection, and I live a painful life every day. ”

"Anyway, it's a little hypocritical."

Zhang Xueming carefully observed his expression.

After confirming that he really didn't say pretending and suppressing himself, it was incredible.

And at the same time, she was in a trance.

"Honestly, I have a new understanding of you."

Zhang Xueming looked at the road ahead again, unconsciously lowered her head, and moved.

"Huh?"

Lu Zhengyi looked at her and lowered her head, and the hand she raised just now retracted, "Do you think I'm cold-blooded?" ”

"Nope."

Zhang Xueming shook her head and said in a muffled voice, "I think you are very strong, and you are strong in a psychological sense." ”

A person can still grow into what he is now when his parents don't care about his parents, his family has money, his appearance is also good, and he is in good shape.

It's an incredible thing.

Why didn't this man grow crooked?

If it were me, most of them would have become a bad girl, right?

After all, self-control, no matter how strong it is, is extremely limited for a child.

"Maybe it's because of my past self that I educated my current self."

Lu Zhengyi's hand, which had been retracted, stretched out again, and suddenly clenched the palm of the person next to him, "It's a little cold, lend me warmth." ”

“……”

Zhang Xueming, who was originally listening to the previous sentence and was going to ask something, only felt that the back of her hand, which was a little cool under the cool breeze, was hot, and then her palm was wrapped in warmth.

Well?

The warmth of warmth flowed down the palms of the hands, to the arms, then to the cheeks, then to the ears......

Zhang Xueming's mind was blank, and even the train of thought in the last second was directly interrupted.

Obviously, it was just a simple hand-holding, and it was not the first time that she and Lu Zhengyi had done something like this.

When signing a contract, agreeing to cooperate, and when they meet, they often shake hands.

But this time......

She pursed her lips, lowered her head, and walked forward silently under the traction of the other end of her palm.

"Now that my parents have met, it's enough to find a time for them to meet alone."

Lu Zhengyi didn't seem to notice the change in the person next to him, and continued, "On the first commandment side, the audit should be almost over, and then we will have to get busy again." ”

"Your vacation is coming to an end, and it's time to try out."

"In this way, you should go back to live, how to say, a little reluctant."

Speaking of this, he also sighed, "In the empty house, I finally got a hostess, who can accompany me every day to cook, eat or something." ”

"It's over all of a sudden, and I might not get used to it."

Zhang Xueming walked forward silently under his traction, just about to say something, but when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed them back.

'What an empty house, not accustomed. ’

When Wang Xiaoxu came a few days ago, he didn't ask me to quickly arrange a lawyer and assist the firm, and then drove the person away. ’

It doesn't feel like the words of a lonely, empty person at all. ’

In her heart, a large number of thoughts welled up.

Obviously, she just rested for a while, but Zhang Xueming always felt as if she was ...... It's changed.
