Shen Xi slept deeply, lying on the sofa and falling asleep, with his face buried in the pillow and only the back of his head facing the person.
The first moment Mrs. Fu entered, she saw her child sleeping on the sofa. She was lying on the sofa, curled up in a small ball. Only the back of her head could be seen. The look in her eyes was gentle and helpless. .
Ah Xuan's friends, like him, fell asleep in the laboratory when they were tired.
When Ah Xuan was doing experiments, he often forgot about food and sleep, and went around day and night. It was common for him to fall asleep anywhere in the laboratory.
His habit was not good, and she refused to listen to him despite being told countless times. Later, she ordered someone to set aside a special place in each laboratory, with a lazy sofa and a small coffee table for sleeping when she was tired. A sofa is better than just a place to sleep.
There was a storage cabinet next to it. She walked over quietly, opened the cabinet and wanted to take out a blanket to cover her so as not to catch a cold.
Unexpectedly, the girl who was sleeping on the sofa suddenly stood up and looked in her direction with a pair of dark, vigilant eyes like cold sharp swords.
After a moment, the coldness in those bright black eyes disappeared, leaving only calmness and a hint of surprise as they looked at her unblinkingly.
Fu's mother was also stunned on the spot at this moment, her reaction was much stronger than that of Shen Xi, her eyes were gentle and filled with tears, and her emotions were complicated.
Shen Xi was also stunned. It only took him a moment to realize that the person in front of her was not Li Jingran, but the woman she had caught a glimpse of in the airport. He nodded slightly to her as a greeting. .
If she was still a little unsure about her guess at the airport, now she was certain that the woman in front of her was the wife of the Fu family and the mother of the Fu family brothers.
"Are you A Xuan's friend?" Fu's mother suppressed the throbbing in her heart, but the surge and excitement in her heart made her feel the deepest sense of closeness in her bones and blood.
"Who are you?" Shen Xi still asked politely.
"I'm Ah Xuan's mother." Fu's mother walked towards her with a gentle face, looking at her carefully and reluctant to take her eyes away from her.
Shen Xi felt a little uncomfortable being looked at by her gaze, and finally introduced himself to prevent her from misunderstanding him: "Hello, Mrs. Fu, my name is Shen Xi, Li Jingran's daughter."
In fact, she really didn't want to mention Li Jingran, especially as a mother, but the feeling of being misunderstood was not that comfortable.
Now that she has understood, Fu Qingli and Fu Qingxuan must have regarded her as a substitute for her sister. After all, Li Jingran looks exactly like their mother, so she naturally looks similar.
Once she knows, people will no longer misunderstand. It is best to clarify many things in advance to avoid making herself uncomfortable and them uncomfortable too.
really.
After her words, the bright color in Fu's mother's eyes disappeared for a moment, and her mind was a little confused. She didn't pay attention to anything she said before, and she only heard the words Li Jingran's daughter.
Her mind was spinning a thousand times at a time, and it was impossible to say that she was not disappointed, but she had endured this kind of loss more than once, and she still looked at her tenderly, with a bit of emotion: "You are her daughter!"
No wonder it gave her such a familiar and friendly feeling. The girl in front of her was also related to her by blood.
"Yeah." Even though Shen Xi didn't want to admit it, she still said yes.
The conflict between her and the Su family is her own business. She doesn't need to let others know about it, and she doesn't want others to sympathize with her. She doesn't need it.
Mother Fu looked at the girl in front of her who had a smile on her face but was actually calm and distant towards her. She felt a little uncomfortable for a moment and her voice was a little hoarse, but she was equally gentle: "When did you and Ah Xuan meet? "
Shen Xi didn't shy away from these questions. He briefly talked about it and didn't tell her about Fu Qingxuan pestering her and following her home for the New Year.
"That's it." Mrs. Fu smiled and didn't ask any more questions. She asked if she couldn't find out, or if it would be more practical to ask her son after she got home.
She has long said that the grudges of the older generation do not need to be involved with the younger generation. A Xuan can be friends with her because he has already listened to her words.
But now that this boy knew her, he brought her back and kept it secret from her. Was he afraid that she would be stimulated when she saw this girl
This girl was obviously avoiding her, and what she said was equivalent to not saying anything. Ah Xuan, a child, had been slow-tempered and cold-tempered since he was a child. He was indifferent to everything except family members and medical matters.
A Xuan's ability to bring her to the laboratory shows that in A Xuan's mind, she is not such a shallow friend as she said.
"This time I was too bothered about my friend's affairs." Shen Xi continued to be polite: "Master Fu is a kind man, and I am very grateful to you for agreeing to this matter."
She didn't expect to meet Mrs. Fu here. It was just the two of them. It was better not to get involved in anything, let her leave quickly, and don't pay attention to her.
If Fu Qingli knew that she had met Mrs. Fu, he might cause trouble to her. She didn't want to see him again!
"It doesn't matter." Mrs. Fu felt a little sad after hearing her words.
This girl was polite to her at all times, and was trying her best to clarify her relationship with Ah Xuan, as if she might have misunderstood something, but she barely said it herself, so don't start a relationship with her.
Shen Xi felt that the atmosphere was a bit awkward. She didn't know what to talk about for a while. She had already set up a high wall in her heart, warning herself to control her speed and not to exceed the warning line.
But I don't know why, but when I saw the sadness flashing in her eyes because of her indifferent attitude, my heart suddenly hurt.
Fortunately, at this moment, the reminder bell she set finally rang, which saved her life. Otherwise, she didn't know how long she could maintain this state.
"Mrs. Fu, I have to go and be busy. I'm sorry." Shen Xi looked at her apologetically and stood up.
Mrs. Fu's distant and polite words made Fu's mother feel uncomfortable again. She looked at her and smiled: "Go quickly, don't delay your work."
Shen Xi nodded to her again, then stood up and put on his white coat. His whole body exuded alienation and indifference.
Mrs. Fu looked at her, feeling complicated for a moment. She put the small cake on the coffee table for her and looked at her cold back: "There is cake on the table. Eat some when you are hungry."
Shen Xi responded without even looking back: "Thank you."
Mrs. Fu sighed in her heart. She could clearly feel her repulsive attitude toward her, and she almost showed it on her face that she didn't want to have anything to do with her.
