The road conditions were bad on weekends, Yuan Rui was afraid of being late, so he made an appointment with Yang Lu at seven o'clock in the evening, and just after five o'clock, he urged Zheng Qiuyang to go out quickly.
Zheng Qiuyang saw that he took out a few bags from the cabinet, all of which were gifts for Yang Lu, including cosmetics, clothes, and handbags, and asked wonderingly, "When did you buy these?"
Yuan Ruidao: "I asked Fang Shiqing to help buy it. He is the most reliable for this."
Zheng Qiuyang felt the same, and asked again: "What did he do? I haven't seen him for most of the day."
Yuan Rui chuckled and said: "He said that Wang Qili must be alone and sleepless, unable to eat and sleep well. It just so happens that he is fine today, so I will show mercy and go to see Wang Qi."
Zheng Qiuyang looked disgusted, he couldn't understand Wang Qi's aesthetics, Fang Shiqing's effort, if he wanted to let him go, he would have beaten him to death 800 times, fortunately Fang Shiqing only did it to Wang Qi, otherwise Who can stand it. In contrast, Yuan Xiaorui from his family is soft and obedient, not fussy or noisy, just perfect, no wonder his mother has sent more than 20 WeChat messages from yesterday to today asking him if he has chased away the little goblin.
When going out, Yuan Rui put the height-increasing insoles on him very thoughtfully, and Zheng Qiuyang pretended not to care and said, "It's okay if you don't need the insoles, she has seen me so many times."
Having said that, he is still "reluctantly".
Forty minutes later, when he stopped at the entrance of the hotel and met Meng Lai, Zheng Qiuyang regretted why he only put on a pair.
And Yuan Rui was so nervous that he almost peed out. He bought so many gifts because he wanted to say thank you and goodbye to Yang Lu. He didn't expect Meng Lai to come! Why did such a bloody thing happen to him when his first love met his current one? He is too unlucky!
"What a coincidence," he exaggerated his expression and tone in order to conceal his nervousness. "Why is it such a coincidence? Are you here for dinner too?"
Zheng Qiuyang was also embarrassed by these words. Didn't he come to eat, did he come here specially to go to the bathroom
Meng Lai smiled, and said straight to the point: "Did my mother ask you to come here too?"
"Yes, yes." Yuan Rui felt that he was about to be suffocated by the blood.
Zheng Qiuyang was swearing and swearing in his head, the mother and son really didn't feel at ease, but luckily he insisted on coming with them.
Meng Lai's eyes turned to him, and he stretched out his hand and said, "Hi, I'm Meng Lai, Yuan Rui's high school classmate."
"Hello," Zheng Qiuyang reached out and shook his hand, introducing himself lukewarmly, "Zheng Qiuyang."
He had only seen Meng Lai from a distance before, and this was the first time he had confronted each other face to face, and the look in Meng Lai's eyes was no stranger at all, obviously the two of them already knew each other, and they also looked at each other not very pleasingly - not only because of Yuan Rui, The two are completely different people, if they met in daily life, they would be no more than nodding acquaintances, and they might call each other idiots behind their backs.
Both of them looked aloof at the moment, Zheng Qiuyang didn't know what Meng Lai was thinking, anyway, besides regretting the lack of insoles, he also wanted to take out his mobile phone and play the paparazzi kissing video in a loop Show this guy, I'm so envious of him.
Yuan Rui calmed down a little bit, and his mind was brighter than before. He felt that it was most important to show his position first, so he moved closer to Zheng Qiuyang, and said to Meng, "He is my boyfriend."
Zheng Qiuyang was triumphant in his heart, but his face was still cold.
Meng Lai still smiled slightly and said, "I know."
Yuan Rui's eyes were wide open, and his face was full of "why are you here to join in the fun if you know it".
Meng Lai couldn't hold back his smile anymore, he touched his nose and said, "Let's go in and talk about it."
He was walking in front, and Zheng Qiuyang squeezed Yuan Rui's wrist behind him, smiling approvingly.
There were more than forty minutes before the appointed time. The three of them sat in the reserved private room and waited for Yang Lu. Only Yuan Ruihun stayed out of the room, and the other two looked as usual. Lost contact and chatted about Turkey shooting down Russian fighter planes, talked about economy and politics, and talked about work and gossip, as if it was very speculative.
Yuan Rui drank tea in silence.
The two finally talked about him, and Zheng Qiuyang said proudly: "He recently recorded a detective reality show, a remake of an ABC show, and won the championship in the first episode. It will be launched next month. If you are free You can take a look."
Meng Lai said: "I must watch it, I watch all his shows."
Zheng Qiuyang smiled and said, "Aren't you all busy in the media? You have a lot of free time."
Meng Lai also smiled, "I'm busy, I have to find some time to read it."
Zheng Qiuyang said: "It's quite thoughtful."
Meng Lai said: "That's the only snack."
Zheng Qiuyang didn't answer any more. Meng Lai also shut up.
The atmosphere is bad.
Yuan Rui was a little startled, and hurriedly said, "Why hasn't Aunt Yang arrived yet?"
He said this to change the subject, but Zheng Qiuyang immediately answered: "Call Mr. Yang and ask."
Yuan Rui: "..." Even if you want to ask, if your own son is here, then it's his turn to fight
Meng Lai said: "Yuan Rui, you can ask, I also think it's time to come."
Yuan Rui had no choice but to take out his mobile phone, Zheng Qiuyang said again: "The signal here is not good, go outside to make a call."
Yuan Rui: "...it's full."
Meng Lai smiled at him and said, "Go outside and fight, let's talk about something serious."
Yuan Rui thought to himself, who are you kidding? When he is stupid? Definitely kick him out and swear at each other.
Zheng Qiuyang simply chased him away and said, "Go quickly."
Yuan Rui had no choice but to stand up, but he was worried about leaving, and bit his ear with Zheng Qiuyang: "Don't take his mother with you when you say dirty words, his mother is still my godmother."
Zheng Qiuyang: "..."
Yuan Rui came out of the private room. Although he was wearing a black frame, he was still afraid of being recognized, so he called Yang Lu at the end of the corridor where there was no one.
Yang Lu said: "I'm on my way, and I'll be there in about 20 minutes. Are you early?"
In fact, she was always punctual, and she would not come at 7:01 if she made an appointment at 7:00. Yuan Rui didn't make any detours, and said directly: "Aunt Yang, you didn't say yesterday that Meng Lai would come too."
Yang Lu said, "If I told you, would you still come?"
Yuan Ruixin said it was too cunning, since you are not benevolent, don't blame me for being unrighteous. He said confidently, "Not only am I here, but my boyfriend is also here."
Yang Lu: "..."
His boyfriend and first love also tore off the disguise, revealing the self under the mask.
Meng Lai straightened his cuffs with his eyes downcast, and said, "He should have told you that I was his first love."
Zheng Qiuyang glanced at him, and said: "He was ignorant when he was young, but he liked you for a few days, so what? Don't you look down on him? It's been so many years, what kind of lover are you pretending to be here now?"
Meng Lai said: "This is about the two of us, what do you know?"
Zheng Qiuyang's face darkened immediately, and he sneered: "Who are you with 'the two of us'? That's my partner, and it has nothing to do with you."
Meng Lai said expressionlessly: "When he wrote me a love letter, you didn't know where to pick up girls."
"It's been soaked, but I've always been aboveboard," Zheng Qiuyang sarcastically said, "It's not like some people who are timid and take no responsibility."
Meng Lai was silent for a moment, raised half of his eyebrows, and said, "Don't point fingers at Sang Huai, I know what you're complaining about, you're jealous of me."
Zheng Qiuyang felt absurd, and said angrily: "What do you have to make me jealous?"
Meng Lai laughed viciously, and said: "You are jealous that Yuan Rui liked me, that we met each other at the best age, that I was the first person he has ever liked in this life, and that I am the first Someone who kissed him... by the way, I stuck out my tongue."
Zheng Qiuyang: "..."
"Me and Meng Lai's father divorced six years ago. He was in his senior year at the time and lived in a dormitory. He refused to go home during holidays, and he would not answer my calls," Yang Lu said on the other end of the phone, " Even when he applied to study abroad, he never mentioned it to me."
Yuan Rui didn't know why she suddenly said this, but she still said: "The divorce of parents has a great impact on children."
Yang Ludao: "He refused to forgive me for six years, not because I divorced his father, but because I lied to him."
She was silent for a moment, and said: "When he was seventeen years old, I lied to him. I had a mastectomy, and every day was a countdown. Later, I divorced his father, because of property division and a lawsuit, he stood on my side. Here, his father was in a hurry and told him the truth."
Yuan Rui was a little dazed, there was so much information, his head couldn't handle it, and asked, "Why did you lie to him like that?"
Yang Ludao: "At that time, I thought that I was here to save my son who had gone astray."
Yuan Rui: "???"
"My marriage with Meng Lai's father was a family marriage for a certain purpose. I have never had any feelings. I am busy with work, and he has always had lovers outside," Yang Lu said slowly, "Our marriage It’s just an empty shell, with nothing but a son, but I have placed great hopes in Meng Lai. He has been excellent since he was a child, and he will definitely have a bright future in the future. He has always reassured me, Not long after he was in his second year of high school, a friend of mine among the school leaders told me about my son and one of his male classmates hiding in the small garden of the school, and the two were kissing."
Yuan Rui: "..."
Zheng Qiuyang and Meng Lai had a fight, but fortunately the private room was large enough, only a few chairs were knocked over, and basically no damage was caused.
He was kicked by Meng Lai, but he hit Meng Lai in the face more than once, which is cool.
The two stopped, gasping for breath.
Meng Lai rubbed the corner of his mouth with his thumb, his skin was bleeding a bit, but he laughed and said, "You beat up Yuan Rui, I owe him."
Zheng Qiuyang said in a huff: "Young mother, try to change the way to break up with him. I really won't be merciful again."
Meng Lai still laughed, and said, "This time it's really not a picky thing, our whole family is sorry for him."
Zheng Qiuyang: "... What are you talking about?"
Meng Lai lowered his head and said: "He wrote me a love letter, but it was stuck in my notebook. I accidentally copied it. The whole class read it, and the whole school knew about it. Someone tipped off to my mother. At that time, Yuan Rui's mother was sick, and my mother came to the door with the love letter, and she was so angry that she became seriously ill. If it wasn't for this, maybe his mother could have stayed with him for a few more years. After being tormented by this, he didn't even pass the college entrance examination, his grades were not bad, but he didn't even pass the ordinary heavy exams, and he left the country in a daze."
Zheng Qiuyang: "..."
He hadn't heard Yuan Rui say anything about it, and Yuan Rui probably didn't even know about it.
He became even more angry, and said angrily: "Is your mother out of her mind? You two didn't really get along, so what are you doing with his house?"
Meng Lai pressed the tip of his tongue against his cheeks, spit blood and saliva, laughed, and said, "It's going to get better soon, I've kissed him, and I've seriously thought about what to do in the future. After the college entrance examination, I will come out to my family when I am admitted to university. If my mother disagrees, I will work while going to school. I can always support the two of us. I even think about adopting a child in the future."
Zheng Qiuyang: "..."
"The sky was very blue that day, and the clouds were big and beautiful," Meng Lai said with a grin. "I've never been so happy in my life. I didn't wear a brake on my bike on the way home."
He stopped, with an erratic and confused expression, as if stuck in that short-lived good memory.
Zheng Qiuyang opened his mouth, but swallowed the ridicule in the end.
"When I get home," Meng Lai came back to his senses, and continued, "My mother is actually at home, and she actually told me that she has a tumor and has undergone surgery, but she can only live on the countdown. She said that she After reading the love letter Yuan Rui wrote to me and listening to some things our teacher said, she asked me if I could stop her from hearing that her son is a pervert while she is still alive."
Zheng Qiuyang doubted: "She lied to you?"
Meng Lai didn't answer, just said: "I didn't fall asleep all night. When I arrived at school the next day, Yuan Rui asked me why I kissed him the day before. Do not take it seriously."
Zheng Qiuyang: "..."
He remembered the first time he kissed Yuan Rui, and Yuan Rui asked him that too, and he replied that it was kissing and playing, fuck, damn it.
