Xu Linyue nodded: "After all, this is her life, let her make her own decisions." ”

"But she's repeating under pressure, how can she do it at home?" Tao Ting said anxiously, "I have to go to work again, and my parents can't take care of her, so I must find a school, otherwise I won't worry." ”

Xu Linyue looked at her, lifted the corners of his mouth and said, "You know what? You're speaking in the same tone as my sister. ”

Tao Ting raised her eyelids: "Don't say it." She blinked, gasped, and said as if she had suddenly woken up: "Yang Fangting usually talks like this. ”

"I became my mother." Tao Ting's eyes widened and she covered her mouth, unable to accept this terrible truth.

Many images flashed before her eyes, and finally settled on the conversation she had with Yang Fangting in the bedroom when she decided to go to graduate school.

At that time, she felt that Yang Fangting was always worried about her, always trying to find the safest way for her to go, but in the name of doing good for her, she did not respect her wishes, and she often felt bored and powerless about this.

However, now that her identity has been reversed, she is standing in the position where her parents once were, saying similar things and having the same heart.

At this moment, education reached a closed loop, Tao Ting hung her head and whispered: "I didn't understand my mother before, but now I seem to be able to understand her." ”

Xu Linyue took her into his arms, patted her on the back and said, "Maybe this is growth." ”

He returned to the room after taking a shower, and Tao Ting stared at the ceiling in a daze.

Xu Linyue lifted the quilt and lay down, asking, "Are you still thinking?" ”

"Hmm."

"Let her call for herself, trust her, she will come to you when she needs you."

Tao Ting nodded: "Okay." ”

After a while, Xu Linyue suddenly laughed lowly.

Tao Ting turned her head to look at him: "What are you laughing at?" ”

"I just think so." Xu Linyue turned over and hugged her into his arms, "I thought it would be at least ten years before I would lie on the bed with you and talk about this." ”

Chapter 67

The bedroom was quiet again, Xu Linyue only left a wall lamp, and turned up the temperature of the air conditioner.

That sentence was said at such an ordinary moment, whether light or heavy, Tao Ting was stunned for a long time, not knowing what to say, Xu Linyue probably didn't wait for her response, closed his eyes and prepared to sleep.

Hearing his even breathing, Tao Ting moved her head, raised her gaze and asked, "Are you asleep?" ”

Xu Linyue let out a lazy "um" in a lazy tone.

Tao Ting felt funny: "Lai Lai chirped two days ago, and slept like this today?" ”

Xu Linyue opened his eyes and asked sincerely: "What is Lai Lai?" ”

"It seems to be a Northeast dialect, saying that you are clingy."

"Oh." Xu Linyue laughed, "I'm afraid that you will be emotionally burdened by one thing, and I am really three years old." ”

"Ah......" Tao Ting patted him on the back, "Mr. Xu has good intentions."

"Sleep." Xu Linyue lowered his voice.

"I feel like you've been so tired lately." There was a fallen eyelash on the tip of his nose, Tao Ting reached out to help him twist it off, "Did the headquarters put pressure on you?" ”

She wanted to ask two days ago, Qianque has launched four new products a year in the same grade of beauty brands, and this year's development momentum is not bad, it will be the end of the year, and the last few months just need to maintain the status quo, no need to suddenly be ambitious to compete with Huanyan for customers.

"Not really." Xu Linyue said, "The order given by that side is that we must clearly define our position, and by the beginning of next year at the latest, we must choose a road to take."

Tao Ting frowned: "What do you mean?" ”

"Citrus China, or a secondary brand specializing in the Asian market."

Tao Ting was not clear: "Is there any difference?" ”

Xu Linyue paused for a few seconds and replied: "Dual-line brands have more autonomy, but they have to bear more performance pressure. ”

Tao Ting said firmly: "You want to do this." ”

Xu Linyue nodded: "Carol also promised me, but the new boss didn't agree." ”

"It doesn't hurt them, does it?"

"I'm afraid that we have too many rights and deviate from the core of the brand, and these two new products are actually not satisfied."

Tao Ting pouted: "Originally, the audience needs of the Eurasian market are not the same, and our localization has been successful in the same type." ”

"Can we stop talking about this?" Xu Linyue tightened his arms.

"How?" Tao Ting thought he was guarding against himself from taking trade secrets, "Am I not your confidant?" Can't you talk to me? ”

"You're my heart, okay." Xu Linyue sighed, "The Lord has a headache when he thinks about it." ”

Tao Ting rubbed in his arms: "Okay, don't talk about it." ”

"Good night."

Tao Ting kissed his chin: "Good night." ”

Xu Linyue suddenly raised his head and looked at the door, and shouted seriously: "Good night, strawberry bear." ”

Tao Ting was amused by his actions and learned to shout: "Good night strawberry bear." ”

She closed her eyes and fell asleep peacefully in her lover's arms.

At one point, Tao Ting was no longer afraid of "going through the process", and she even felt that if every day for the next ten or twenty years was like tonight, it would seem pretty good.

School affairs Tao Ting and Tao Yingnan both took a step back, chose a compromise plan, and decided that after the school year started in September, Tao Yingnan would return to his original high school for another year and stay on board as before.

She was still in the class where she was the head of the class, and Teacher Qian's daughter was about the same age as Tao Yingnan, and she also felt that it was a pity, but after so many years in the industry, to be honest, she had seen a lot of this kind of thing, and after knowing that Tao Yingnan decided to repeat her studies, Teacher Qian and Tao Ting chatted for a long time in the office.

"Don't worry, I believe in this child, she's smart and resilient."

Tao Ting smiled and said, "Please take care of her more, if you have any questions, you can contact me on WeChat." ”

"Eh, okay."

Shen Chun also came on the day she moved to the dormitory, and she didn't throw away the mattress and sheets used by Tao Yingnan in her third year of high school.

Tao Ting still politely shouted "Auntie", and Shen Chun nodded at her.

After that day, Tao Yingnan didn't talk to them, and Shen Chun knew in his heart that he was not bored, so he put down his things and left.

After cleaning up the bed, Tao Yingnan spread out a poster and pasted it on the head of the bed, Tao Ting stared at the handsome young face on it and asked, "Who is this?" ”

"I'll take it."

Tao Ting raised her voice: "Who?" ”

"I love idols." Tao Yingnan carefully aligned the horizontal line and glued stickers to the four corners of the poster, "The lead singer of Kseven." ”

Tao Ting has never chased stars since she was a child, and questioned: "Are you an adult?" ”

"Of course, ninety-eight years old, I'm young."

Being slapped on the head by something called the generation gap, Tao Ting laughed: "Okay." ”

"Then I'll go, the biscuits and chocolates will be put in the cabinet for you, they were bought by your brother-in-law, and you will share them with your classmates if you don't eat them." Tao Ting used to think that Yang Fangting was verbose, but now it seems that she herself is not much better, "I said hello to Teacher Qian, she won't accept your mobile phone, call me if you have something, you must pay attention to your body, health first, you know?" ”

Tao Yingnan nodded and waved at her: "Bye-bye." ”

Tao Ting walked to the door and turned her head and said, "I'll pick you up after the holiday." ”

"Got it."

After coming out of school, Tao Ting called Xu Linyue.

"Hey."

"Are you up?"

"Just woke up." Xu Linyue yawned.

"I'm ready to come back." Tao Ting pulled the car door and sat in, holding her mobile phone in one hand, "Is there anything to eat at home?" I haven't eaten yet. ”

"What do you want to eat?"

"Whatever, just leave me a mouthful."

"I'm going to meet a collaborator later." Xu Linyue said, "I guess I will eat dinner out as well." ”

He has been socializing a lot recently, Tao Ting advised: "Drink less wine and go home early." ”

"Yes."

At the end of September, new products were launched, fashion has always been a reincarnation, this autumn and winter beauty circle has become popular with retro smoky makeup, this time the Akane is lucky, the new eyeshadow palette just takes the theme of rock girl, cold color and silver glitter, punk metallic rebellious and perverse.

This new product is directly related to the performance of the Double 11 Shopping Festival, and all brands are racking their brains to think about how to stand out, but they did not expect that Qianque not only withstood the pressure, but also performed remarkably. After more than a month of busyness, their group of migrant workers can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Xu Linyue had a magazine interview this afternoon, and he was not in the company, so Tao Ting didn't wait for him to get off work together.

After she finished punching the card and was about to enter the elevator, Xu Linyue's call came.

"Hey."

"Are you off work?"

"Just came out."

"My car keys seem to have been left in the office, you can help me take a look."

There was a colleague waiting for the elevator next to her, Tao Ting was afraid that the earpiece would leak, so she pressed her mobile phone to her ear and took two steps to the side.

Xu Linyue said: "It should be in that smoky gray suit pocket, I forgot to take it when I changed clothes." ”

"Got it." Tao Ting asked him, "Are you still going home for dinner?" ”

"I guess I can't leave."

Tao Ting guessed and guessed: "Okay, drink less wine." ”

"Hmm."

She deliberately waited for a while, and when her colleagues had all gone in one after another and filled the square compartments, she naturally took the next elevator up to the 23rd floor.

Vincent hadn't gotten off work yet, Tao Ting stood at the door and knocked on the door, saying, "I'll help Mr. Xu get something." ”

"You go in, the door is unlocked."
