Just like what Qin Nan said, I feel sorry for Qiao Ruoyu, but Qiao Ruoyu is an elder, so it's too inappropriate to describe it like that, but when Li Rou met her eyes, he really felt a desire, as if he was willing to let this woman She is no longer so timid and frightened, and wants to calm her heart down.
Probably Lin Daiyu looks like this, but it's different from Lin Daiyu's temperament due to problems such as life experience and sojourn feelings. Qiao Ruoyu's hidden sadness seems to be a bit groundless. For such a woman, what can be buried in her heart to make her depressed What about widowed? Her husband is a real high-level government official, and her daughter now holds the most powerful secret service force.
Although Li Rou has always felt that the relationship between relatives must be established through the years of living together, he does not dislike Qiao Ruoyu's care and concern for her, and he does not feel awkward or unnatural. It feels very natural and comfortable, which seems to be the way it should be for a nephew who has just met.
But should this jade bracelet be accepted? Such a jade bracelet should have been given to An Zhishui by Li Rou's mother, and it has a special meaning inside.
Although it was given to An Zhishui, Li Rou had to decide whether to accept it or not, because even the stupid An Zhishui knew that it was impossible for Aunt Qiao to give such a precious gift just because she liked her for the first time. Gift.
"Take it if you like it." After thinking for a while, Li Rou said to An Zhishui.
"Thank you, Aunt Qiao..." An Zhishui happily put it away, thought for a while, and then took out a Jade Buddha from the bag, "Aunt Qiao, I'll give this to you, let's exchange gifts with each other."
"Okay, okay, thank you Zhishui." Qiao Ruoyu happily rubbed and played with the Jade Buddha.
"I have a knot here, but it's the simplest...I made it myself." Seeing that Qiao Ruoyu liked it, An Zhishui took out a red and black lanyard.
"I'll take a look."
"let me help you!"
Li Rou watched An Zhishui and Qiao Ruoyu get close all of a sudden, it was really hard to understand, how do women get along with each other? An Zhishui and Qiao Ruoyu seem to be quite eye-catching, but they are enemies with Qiao Ruoyu's daughter.
An Zhishui stood up and helped Qiao Ruoyu wear the Jade Buddha around her neck. Although the red and black lanyard was simple, Qiao Ruoyu's neck was fair and delicate, but it was also very beautiful. The crystal clear color of her skin made the Jade Buddha glow. .
An Zhishui also wore a jade bracelet, proudly showing off to Li Rou.
"Dinner... When Zhishui is free, let's go shopping together." Qiao Ruoyu said again.
"Okay, you call me, my phone number is..."
After the first dish was served, An Zhishui picked up some food for Qiao Ruoyu, and Li Rou was carrying a bowl of soup, only to find Qiao Niannu walking over.
Qiao Niannu often eats at Yuemanlou. It is not surprising that Li Rou saw her here, but Li Rou felt that the current scene was a bit awkward. Qiao Ruoyu and An Zhishui got along well, but when An Zhishui and Qiao Niannu met There will be awkwardness, Qiao Ruoyu is caught in the middle, I'm afraid it's not easy to do, Li Rou... the same.
"Mom, why are you here?" Qiao Niannu sat down directly, without any intention of seeing outsiders. For her, An Zhishui is actually an outsider here, and the other three people are all blood relatives.
"I'm here to find Principal Xu." Qiao Ruoyu tossed her hair and said nervously, then pointed to Li Rou: "Then I met Li Rou by accident."
Qiao Ruoyu obviously doesn't know how to lie. If it was really just a coincidence, why would she deliberately add an "accident"? Li Rou was very surprised, why did Qiao Ruoyu lie to Qiao Niannu about this matter, Qiao Niannu was her daughter, did she need to show such a nervous expression
"Mom, you're not in good health... If you want to see Li Rou, I'll take him home next time." Qiao Niannu said worriedly, holding Qiao Ruoyu's palm.
Qiao Ruoyu trembled, but withdrew her palm.
"Auntie, are you Teacher Qiao's mother?" An Zhishui was surprised at this moment. She never thought that although she already knew that Qiao Niannu was Li Rou's sister, she did not connect the two.
Qiao Ruoyu nodded, and glanced at Li Rou and Qiao Niannu, but showed a bit of worry.
"Miss An, you..." Qiao Niannu was about to say that An Zhishui's yelling was a bit too affectionate, but he caught sight of the jade bracelet on An Zhishui's arm.
"My aunt gave it to me." Seeing the look in Qiao Niannu's eyes, An Zhishui felt a little proud, but was afraid that Qiao Niannu would snatch it from her, so he quickly grabbed his arm and put it under the table, not even eating.
Qiao Niannu looked at Qiao Ruoyu, but Qiao Ruoyu turned her head away, but said nothing.
"Let's eat together... I'll order another dish." Li Rou smiled wryly, and Qiao Ruoyu gave An Zhishui the jade bracelet, no doubt thinking that Li Rou and An Zhishui were very good together, how could Qiao Niannu accept this? Especially Qiao Niannu must be upset that his mother actually helped outsiders. Li Rou yelled, "Waiter, bring me another set of bowls and chopsticks, and I still have an order."
Li Rou's voice was a bit loud, so he was regarded as a person of low quality. If he came to pay attention and felt the gaze of others, Qiao Niannu came back to his senses and said to the waiter who came over: "Take the bowl and chopsticks." That's it, no need to order food."
When the dishes came, Qiao Ruoyu ate very politely, almost chewing rice one by one. An Zhishui obediently served Qiao Ruoyu with food, "Auntie, eat this crispy fish skin, it's not greasy at all, it's here signature dish."
"Okay, okay, thank you." Qiao Ruoyu smiled.
"Li Rou, you eat these chicken feet. Dad said that men can make money if they eat more chicken feet." An Zhishui brought food to Li Rou again. Just like the master, Qiao Niannu can't let Qiao Niannu find an opportunity to talk small things about her behind her back.
"Sister Qiao, drink some soup!" For Qiao Niannu, An Zhishui always felt that it would be too contrived to serve her food, so he reluctantly could only greet her like this.
"Thank you." Qiao Niannu filled a bowl, but gave it to Li Rou first, "Li Rou, you should drink more soup. Usually when you eat, you always eat only meat and vegetables. This is not okay."
An Zhishui suddenly felt that she had failed. She originally wanted to bring food for Li Rou, but she felt a little embarrassed to show off her sweetness with Li Rou, so Qiao Niannu did it first.
"Li Rou, you eat this... There is gym class in the afternoon, so I need to replenish my energy." An Zhishui couldn't care less at this time, and hurried to pick up food for Li Rou.
"There's a physical education class, so it's more important to stay hydrated... Have a bowl of soup, and I'll bring you a drink after class." Qiao Niannu said not to be outdone.
"Mr. Qiao, why did you bring drinks to Li Rou?" An Zhishui suddenly became unhappy, and reminded Qiao Niannu that she was a teacher at school. What does it look like for a boy to deliver drinks
"I'm his older sister. I'll bring him a drink. Do you need something?" Qiao Niannu smiled slightly. You, An Zhishui, have the status of a girlfriend. Doesn't sister Qiao have a valid identity as a mother
"Then I want it too!" An Zhishui blurted out in a hurry.
"Okay, I'll give it to you later." Qiao Niannu said without hesitation.
An Zhishui knew immediately that he was impulsive, so wouldn't it mean that he agreed with Qiao Niannu to deliver drinks to Li Rou? Although she also promised to give An Zhishui... but the boys and girls in the physical education class are completely separated in two places because of the different sports. For example, the boys are in the gymnasium in this section, and the girls are practicing yoga in the fitness center.
Qiao Ruoyu finally couldn't help laughing out loud, watching the two girls bicker with a smile.
Li Rou has been burying his head in eating vegetables and drinking soup. The two of them are too busy fighting, and they don’t want to see how much they picked up for him. Fortunately, Li Rou eats far more than ordinary people... He still concentrates on dealing with these foods, mixing them with women. A man who goes through the struggle is absolutely thankless, and in the end he will always fall into the wrong place and offend both sides.
Because Li Rou and An Zhishui had to attend a regular meeting of the student union, An Zhishui and Qiao Ruoyu made an appointment to go shopping after dinner, so they took Li Rou and left first, while Qiao Ruoyu and Qiao Niannu were still sitting in the restaurant.
"Mom." Qiao Niannu put down her chopsticks.
Qiao Ruoyu was silent, she knew what Qiao Niannu's "Mom" was emphasizing.
"Isn't it good that Li Rou and An Zhishui are together? Look at him and An Zhishui are happy together, just like any ordinary person is in love... Mom just hopes that Li Rou can live a happy life of ordinary people An ordinary girl like An Zhishui is the most suitable for him." Qiao Ruoyu was silent for a moment before explaining.
"Li Rou is no longer an ordinary person. Do you think it is possible for him to live like an ordinary person?" Qiao Niannu shook his head, "Even if he can, it's just in front of him."
"How much hardship he has endured over the years, even if he can be happier and happier now, are you going to destroy it?" Qiao Ruoyu's breathing suddenly became rapid, as if suppressing the anger and resentment in his heart, and tears fell down.
Qiao Niannu stared blankly at her mother, her mother's misunderstanding and estrangement towards him seemed to be getting deeper and deeper.
