Xiaoliang Rui made one last phone call to me before he left. He asked me whether the opportunities for dolls in the United States were different from those here. I suddenly felt a little sour at that time. I could tell that he was reluctant to leave here, but he was relatively the same age. The child is much more sensible. Even at his age, he still cannot understand many things, but he knows that his parents are doing their best for him, so he obeys their advice most of the time.
I have never been to the United States, so I can’t give a definite answer to his question. I can only say that it should be about the same. I also told him that if it was really different, he could video chat with me and I would analyze the new techniques with him. Then he said "Hmm" with satisfaction, and finally said: "Sister Genius, when I am not around, you have to help me take good care of Xiao Liang Sheng, and tell him not to always be stinky. When I grow up, I will Will be cooler than him. I’m getting on the plane, bye sis.”
The caller had hung up, but I still kept answering the call, lowering my head silently, my eyes slightly moist.
Xuanxuan poked a piece of cantaloupe and handed it to me, "What did the little devil tell you?"
I took the fruit, put the phone aside, and pretended to smile casually: "He asked me to help him take care of Liang Sheng."
"Hey, I can't tell, but he is quite sensible, and he seems to like you very much." Xuanxuan raised her eyebrows at me and said with a smile.
What Xuanxuan means is that Liang Rui is my brother-in-law after all, and I have won over at least one person's heart in the Liang family, well, two if you include Qiao Wan. I stuffed the cantaloupe into my mouth, chewed it and said, "What's the use of him liking me? A child has no right to speak. But you, didn't you go to meet your parents yesterday? What's going on?"
Xuanxuan probably called me out to complain about this matter. As soon as I mentioned meeting my parents, she immediately turned on the complaining mode. Her originally proud face suddenly sank, and she sighed: "Stop talking, I don't know." what's the situation."
"I don't know what the situation is?" I was a little confused.
Xuanxuan put her chin on her hands, with a sad look on her face: "Yesterday Chu Jin took me to his house for dinner. I met his parents, but I didn't talk to them the whole time. Chu Jin introduced me to them and said I was his girlfriend, and his mother just smiled and said three words to me in total: "Sit down," "Eat more," and "I'll do it." His father was even more confused. As soon as I took the initiative to speak, He coughed violently, and I felt like they didn’t want to accept me.”
"How could this happen? Have you asked Chu Jin?" I asked. I thought Xuanxuan would definitely be successful when she went to meet her parents. After all, she was well-behaved, cute, and good at talking, so she should be the type that would be more popular with her elders.
"I asked, and Chu Jin said he didn't know. He said he would communicate with his parents and tell me not to think too much. If not, I would come to find you. I don't know how his communication is going." Xuan Xuan simply lay down on the table depressed, tapping the screen of my phone with her fingers, and muttering: "I thought Chu Jin's parents had similar personalities to Chu Jin, and they should be easy to get along with. But how could this happen?”
"Maybe his parents are not very good at expressing themselves. Since Chu Jin asked you not to think nonsense, just listen to him." I comforted her, but some scattered pictures could not help but appear in my mind. If Liang Sheng takes me home to see him My parents, well, this doesn’t seem to be true. Even if he really brought me to meet him, it would probably be Liang Mohua and Ning Jing.
Liang Mohua would have welcomed me warmly, and Ning Jing would have been as silent as Chu Jin's mother, but Liang Mohua would not have accepted me so easily. At least for now, he seems to have deliberately separated me from Liang Sheng, maybe I feel that my status is not worthy of their Liang family, or it may be that I simply don’t like me as a person, or some other reasons.
As I was thinking about it, Xuanxuan suddenly held my cell phone and waved it in front of my eyes: "Telephone, phone, phone! Why are you so stunned!"
I came to my senses immediately and answered the phone without hesitation. I was about to put it to my ear when I suddenly realized the name on the screen: Liu Nanhao!
Why did he call me
The call was connected, and his voice came clearly from the receiver: "Ana Shen, is it convenient to answer the phone now?"
I answered directly: "It's inconvenient!"
"But I have something to talk to you about, something very important, about what I told you last time." Liu Nanhao blurted out, as if he was afraid that I would hang up the phone.
I frowned and asked suspiciously: "What did you tell me last time? What?"
Liu Nanhao did not answer me clearly, but just said: "Let's talk in person. I will send the address to your mobile phone. Don't tell anyone, including Liang Sheng."
His words made me puzzled. After work, I often go to Tieba online to read some incredible stories. My first thought was, is Liu Nanhao trying to trick me into a deserted place? What will he do to me? . However, when I received the address from him, I gave up this idea.
"I'll wait for you at the restaurant No. xxx, Huanhai Road." It was the restaurant where Liang Sheng took me to the beach for dinner.
Since it was a public place, there was little chance of harming me, but judging from his tone, telling me not to tell anyone, especially Liang Sheng, then what he said to me was probably related to Liang Sheng. Could it be that he wanted to You want to drive a wedge between me and Liang Sheng.
Sometimes people's curiosity is a very magical thing. Even if you know that the result will be harmful to you but not beneficial, you can never get rid of the strong desire for knowledge or the desire for verification. I want to know what kind of trick Liu Nanhao wants to play.
Xuanxuan knew about Liu Nanhao, but at this moment, she was thinking about Chu Jin's family, and she didn't care about gossiping too much. She just casually asked what he was calling me about, and I just ignored it. A few words and it'll be fine. I didn't tell him about Liu Nanhao's date with me, because as long as I told her, Liang Sheng would basically be in sync.
Before going to the beach, I went to the mall. When I arrived, Liu Nanhao was already waiting for me at my seat.
He is still wearing my favorite white, and his face is still the same as in my memory, but it has nothing to do with me.
I sat down opposite him, Liu Nanhao looked at me and said, "You still like to wear white skirts."
I didn't have the slightest intention of reminiscing with him, so I put my handbag on the table and asked straight to the point, "Tell me, what do you want to see me for?"
Liu Nanhao was obviously surprised by my directness, but he did not answer immediately. Instead, he called the waiter, "I want a black pepper steak medium rare, a Margherita pizza, and a piece of bread." , a caramel macchiato. And please remove this flower, thank you.”
'I'm Waiting for You Here' still maintains a fresh and elegant style, with the light fragrance of flowers everywhere. There happened to be a lavender lamp on this table. The lavender color is very beautiful. I raised my head and said to the waiter: "You don't need to take away the flowers, just put them away." Here it is."
A trace of surprise flashed in Liu Nanhao's eyes, but he didn't say anything. After the waiter left, I asked him again: "What was it you told me last time?"
Liu Nanhao was sitting upright, as if he were in a business negotiation. His eyes were focused on my face, and he spoke after a while: "Actually, I came to you just to fulfill a promise I made before. When I was in school, you really wanted to come and have a meal with me at the beach, but I never could. I regret to satisfy you. Although it’s too late to make up for it now, I don’t want to leave any regrets to myself. I hope you”
"Liu Nanhao!" I interrupted him, "If you have something to do, please tell me. If you have nothing to do, then I'm sorry, I don't have the time to daydream with you."
Liu Nanhao was slightly startled, obviously surprised by my attitude. He probably thought that he still occupied a pivotal position in my heart, and thought that even with Liang Sheng, I still couldn't forget him. He thought that just a few words of confession from him could make me so moved. After all, life is not a bloody drama. When he betrayed me, he should have been very clear that I would never forgive him one day.
"In this case, I will tell you everything I know." Liu Nanhao was silent for a few seconds and then said seriously: "I hope you can understand that I regret the harm I did to you, and I don't expect you to accept my feelings again. , I just hope you can treat me as an ordinary friend, just an ordinary friend."
