In late July, it was midsummer, and it got dark late.
Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, the trees are lush and the sky is full of sunset.
In the restaurant on the first floor, after Du Ruo was seated, she solemnly returned the bank card to Ming Yi. First, she thanked her uncles and aunts for their support over the years, but she has not used the money in the card since half a year ago, and she will be able to support herself in the future.
Ming Yi was particularly surprised: "You child! Now is the time to study, shouldn't you rush to work?"
Du Ruo explained: "No, it's just tutoring twice a week, plus the money I saved from part-time work during the winter vacation. I will start my sophomore year soon, and I will get a first-level scholarship for majors, which is about 20,000 yuan, which is enough for a year's living expenses."
Only then did Ming Yi feel relieved, looked at her husband, and said with a gratified smile: "Xiao Ruo usually works really hard, there are so many outstanding students in school, and she can still get a scholarship."
Jing Yuanshan said: "I said at the beginning that Xiao Ruo is smart and hardworking. Even in the new environment, he will not be compared to others." Turning to look at Jing Ming, "It's not like this kid who failed all the exams."
Du Ruo was embarrassed.
Jing Ming didn't care, he leisurely picked up the food on the plate, and said, "Can you stop belittling me every time you praise her, and destroy my relationship with her?"
Jing Yuanshan frowned: "Is there something wrong with what I said, did I fail the exam?"
Jing Ming: "You are the boss, you are right in everything you say."
"Hey, you kid!" Jing Yuanshan gave him a light look, and then said seriously, "I watched your game in Shenzhen, it was good."
Ming Yi chuckled: "It's not bad, I'm so happy. During this period of time, I was on a business trip, and I called me every night to praise me until I came home today."
Jing Ming smiled and picked up vegetables for dinner. Du Ruo also pursed her lips and smiled.
"I'm calling to ask you. By the way, ask him." Jing Yuanshan coughed lightly once or twice in embarrassment, "What are you going to do next?"
Jing Ming: "In two or three months, the car will be launched."
Jing Yuanshan: "Or don't let your father invest?"
"It's my own business. I used your money in the early stage and gave you shares."
Jing Yuanshan laughed twice: "Okay... So, the investor has been found?"
Jing Ming: "Speaking is foolish."
Jing Yuanshan and Ming Yi exchanged glances: "When did it happen?"
"last week."
"I didn't hear you."
Jing Ming: "You didn't ask."
Minyi glared at him.
Jing Yuanshan said: "It seems to be really amazing to make Yan Lao like it. It's not that I, the father, made it beautified with an emotional halo."
Jing Ming has black lines all over his head: "..."
Ming Yi and Du Ruo looked at each other and smiled.
Jing Yuanshan sighed again: "Mr. Yan is a person with a big heart. He has been doing his best to support his country's high-tech team and improve his country's competitiveness all his life. This makes many business people feel ashamed. He invests in projects and pays more attention to brand building. Long-term development is not like other investors who put short-term profit as the primary goal.”
Jing Ming: "So he is the best choice for Prime. After the Shenzhen competition, I knew he would come to me." He smiled, "Sure enough."
"Don't be complacent." Jing Yuanshan said.
Jingming raised his eyebrows.
The atmosphere at the dinner table was relaxed and happy, and Du Ruo was also very relaxed. He unconsciously stretched his foot and accidentally kicked Jingming's leg. Surprised, she lowered her head to pick up the rice.
He glanced at her, pretending nothing happened.
Jingming finished eating quickly, seeing that there was still Du Ruo in the bowl, he was afraid that she would be embarrassed to be left alone, so when she came down to the table together, he filled another bowl of soup and drank slowly. Seeing that she had finished eating, when she put down her chopsticks and was about to speak, he said in advance: "It's finished."
Du Ruo also stood up easily.
As usual, Jing Ming slumped on the sofa and played with his mobile phone for a while, while Du Ruo sat aside and looked at his mobile phone.
Halfway through, I received a voice call from He Wang, asking him to play a game.
He replied: "Next time."
She unintentionally glanced at the screen of his mobile phone, and saw that her note read: "Our crystal."
She was taken aback.
In the restaurant, the parents were still eating and chatting. At this end, neither of them said a word, it was quiet.
Jingming turned the phone, restrained, finally couldn't sit still, glanced at Du Ruo, swept the stairs with his eyes, meaning: go upstairs
Du Ruo pursed her lips nervously, but did not respond.
After sitting for a while, Jing Ming got up and went upstairs. Du Ruo sat on the spot clutching the phone, her scalp tingling, she hesitated for a second, and simply followed.
At the restaurant, Ming Yi looked back at the backs of the two going upstairs one after the other, and frowned slightly.
Du Ruo slipped into the study and closed the door, took a breath, her heart was pounding for some reason.
Jing Ming was already sitting on the ground, intending to adjust the newly completed robot, when he raised his eyes to see her coming in, and patted the floor beside him. She goes and sits down.
"Don't be nervous." He pinched her face, "I won't find out."
"Oh." She nodded, cleared her mind, and worked seriously with him, and the uneasy emotions just now gradually disappeared.
Zizi, Zizi, Eva walked up and down the room, entertaining herself, sneaking up to the two of them from time to time to take a look, and then walked away.
Jing Ming and Du Ruo were debugging the robot, and they had nothing to say except the necessary communication.
At a certain moment, Du Ruo's neck was sore, she raised her head and twisted her neck, and saw his drooping head and black hair. Suddenly, she wanted to touch his hair, so she did.
He noticed, raised his eyes, and looked at her quietly. He bowed his head and continued to work.
Her fingers were wrapped around his hair, refreshing and soft, she didn't want to let go, so she kept grabbing his hair and playing with it.
Played for about a few minutes.
"Addicted, huh?" he said.
"Yeah. Addicted," she said.
He didn't answer, and two seconds later, his finger suddenly poked her waist.
She shrank suddenly and bounced away: "Yeah!"
"Really? Huh? Right?" He poked her again and again, and she twisted into a ball to avoid it. He was chasing after him, and during the frolicking, she accidentally fell on her back to the ground, but he didn't control her body, and suddenly fell forward, and her figure enveloped her.
He goes up and down her.
The four eyes met, and the air was suddenly quiet.
In the air-conditioned room, the face is hot and the heart is beating.
Du Ruo's cheeks heated up sharply in an instant, and he was stunned for two seconds, then immediately rolled to avoid it. Jing Ming pulled her back all at once and pressed her on the floor.
She shyly whispered: "At home!"
He was funny, and said intentionally: "So what?" Touching her lips with his thumb, "They won't come up."
"No." She was anxious and panicked, her face was flushed, and she wanted to get up. He refused and pushed her back. The two competed on the floor, she was smaller than him, and she was also weaker than him, struggling in his arms, but she couldn't make too much noise, her face flushed.
She wanted to get up in embarrassment and anxiety again and again, and he smiled and pushed her back again and again.
She yelled, "What on earth do you want!"
"What do you think I want?" he said, reaching into her clothes. The scorching palm scalded the girl's smooth skin.
Her eyes widened suddenly, and her whole body stiffened.
He lowered his head to touch her lips, slid down, buried her neck and took a deep breath, kissed her, but suddenly stopped, and said to himself in a very low voice: "It's over."
Before he finished speaking, he sat up abruptly, pulled her up, and stopped making trouble with her.
With a blushing face, she tugged at the crumpled T-shirt and muttered softly, "What's wrong?"
"It's okay." He didn't look at her.
I really want to take her back to the bedroom next door and put her on my bed, to kiss and rub her.
He stared at the robot on the ground, remained silent for a few seconds, then suddenly turned to look at her, held her face with both hands, and rubbed her face vigorously as if venting.
Du Ruo was dumbfounded.
He heaved a long sigh, didn't explain, and stopped fooling around, and called her: "Stop playing, do something." He pointed his chin at the robot that was still being debugged.
"oh."
The two bowed their heads together again.
After a while, Jing Ming said, "Stay at my house for a few more days."
Du Ruo was troubled and murmured vaguely.
She was uncomfortable in his house, especially when Jing Yuanshan and Ming Yi were at home.
She wants to go back to school.
But the high temperature weather warning, coupled with Ming Yi's retention, and Jing Ming's eyes, she still stayed for a few more days.
During the day, Jing Yuanshan and Ming Yi went to the company, and they and Mrs. Chen were the only ones left at home.
Jing Ming originally wanted to take her out to play, but she was worried that Mrs. Chen would report to Ming Yi, so she refused.
He stayed with her at home.
The sun was scorching outdoors, and the two of them leaned on the sofa in the living room, eating watermelon and watching a movie. It was not bad to be relaxed and comfortable.
I just saw halfway, and there was a bang beside me. When Jing Ming turned his head, Du Ruo fell asleep on the sofa.
Jingming: "..."
He got up, took off her slippers, moved her legs to the sofa, gently raised her head, stuffed it with a small pillow, and covered her with a thin blanket. She curled up comfortably in her sleep, like a small animal.
He moved closer to her and looked at her closely.
Her eyelashes were black and long, hanging softly, and her lips were red with watermelon juice. He couldn't hold back, and poked her soft and fair face. She twitched her eyebrows, and gradually stretched them out, breathing long and peacefully.
He poked and played for a while, and his phone vibrated.
He sat on the floor and looked at his mobile phone. It turned out that he was drawn into the group by a few high school alumni who had never been in touch with him.
Click to see, a bunch of women are joking:
"Jing Shao is in love?"
"Let me tell you, I felt weird when I saw him posting on Moments that day."
"He never did."
"Absolutely." It was Min Enzhu who said this. Last year, the two broke up very unhappy, and all communication methods were deleted.
"Bamboo is here too? How does it feel, haha."
Min Enzhu: "Don't talk about me, I've just had a new conversation."
"Be tough."
Min Enzhu: "Get out, will I lack a boyfriend?"
"Jing Shao, post a photo to take a look. She must be a big beauty."
"It's not as beautiful as bamboo."
Min Enzhu: "Jingming, post a photo to see what your taste is now."
"Isn't it embarrassing?"
"Don't be kidding, Jing Shao picks a girlfriend, I'm afraid I'll be embarrassed."
Fuck, these women are sick.
Jing Ming was very upset, and typed out a line: "My girlfriend, it's your turn to be blind." After thinking about it, he deleted it, and changed the sentence: "My wife has no advantages, except that her IQ is two or three times that of yours."
Send it, quit the group, and delete all those people.
They are all ghosts and monsters.
After deleting, I found a friend request from Min Enzhu.
reject.
Putting down the phone, he turned his head to look at Du Ruo who was still taking a nap, leaned over to look at her for a while, and lightly pecked her lips to calm down.
In the next few days, the two of them spent most of their time in the study room, reading books, working on machines, not disturbing each other, chatting for a while, discussing problems, or joking around a little bit, and the time passed quickly.
Four days later, after dinner, Jing Ming slumped on the sofa to watch the military channel, while Du Ruo sat beside him, a seat away from him.
Halfway through, her phone rang, and after answering the phone, she went to the dining table and said hello to Jing Yuanshan and Ming Yi who were still eating. She will go back to school tomorrow.
Ming Yi said: "Let's play for a few more days. Anyway, summer vacation is fine, and the temperature is so high, how hot it is to live in the school."
"My student has to make up lessons, so..."
"Okay then. I won't stay if you have business to do. Come and play more when you have time. You should rest more during the summer vacation."
"Yeah. Got it."
Du Ruo walked back to the sofa and sat down, Jing Ming glanced at her.
He heard what she said to Ming Yi just now, so he was not very happy, he didn't ask and ignored him, and continued to watch the TV screen.
Du Ruo took out his mobile phone to reply to the student's message, and unintentionally clicked on the profile picture, an art student, dressed in trendy clothes, and also handsome.
Jing Ming caught a glimpse of it in a blink of an eye, took out his mobile phone from his pocket, and tapped his finger twice.
A message popped up on Du Ruo's screen: "Who is he?"
She was speechless, and replied: "Student."
The next second, his phone beeped.
Both of them froze for a moment and held their breath.
Over in the restaurant, the parents didn't seem to notice the sound.
He turned his phone to silent, lowered his eyes and continued typing: "How old are you?"
Her: "18."
He: "Looking at the photo, he doesn't look like a student, what a bad kid."
"..." Du Ruo turned to look at him, he was slumped on the sofa, watching TV indifferently.
She replied four words to him and put the phone away.
He sat for a while before taking out his phone to take a look.
"Just like you."
He stood up abruptly and went upstairs.
Du Ruo watched TV on the spot for a while, then went back to the guest room to pack his things.
Ming Yi looked back at the empty living room again.
After breakfast the next day, Du Ruo said goodbye to them.
Ming Yi explained: "Jingming, you can send Xiao Ruo back to school. It's too hot, and I'm too tired to squeeze the subway."
Jing Ming let out a "hmm" and went upstairs to get the key.
Jing Yuanshan and Ming Yi went to the company, and Jing Ming and Du Ruo went to school.
Two cars left the complex and headed in different directions.
Mingyi watched his son's aqua-green sports car getting farther and farther through the rearview mirror, and sighed inadvertently.
Jing Yuanshan knew it well, and explained: "Maybe these two children get along well. They have a common language, and it's good to study together."
The mother believed in her intuition even more: "When did outsiders enter his study room? I stopped playing games and stayed with her. I just said to send her back, and I immediately agreed. His temper..."
At the red light ahead, Jing Yuanshan slowed down and stopped, feeling a little worried: "If there is something really wrong with these two children, what should we do?"
"I don't worry about anything else. They are still young. It doesn't matter if they fall in love. Life experience is necessary. Jing Ming has a sense of proportion and won't mess around. But the difference between the two is too big, and I'm afraid they won't make it to the end. Now they are passionately in love. For a while, keep your temper under control, and see what the other person is good at. After a while, the original personality will be released, one has a violent temper, the other is sensitive, and sooner or later they will collapse."
Jing Yuanshan nodded, holding the same opinion.
Ming Yi looked worriedly at the scorching sun outside the window, and said: "I hope we can get together and get together, and don't make any troubles, so that we don't get hurt."
Jing Yuanshan sighed, "I hope."
In the other car, the atmosphere was quiet.
Jing Ming looked at the road ahead, neither spoke nor looked at Du Ruo. Du Ruo only thought that he was concentrating on driving, and didn't feel any difference.
When it was almost near the school, Jing Ming said, "What does your student do?"
"Art students, I don't know what they are doing," she tried to remember, "It seems to be Western music? Forgot."
Jing Ming snorted, "You don't care about being a teacher thanks to you."
"I'm only in charge of teaching, what do I care about?"
Jing Ming's complexion improved when he heard the words. After a while, he remembered something and frowned: "I still need you to make up classes after summer vacation? Shouldn't I be admitted?"
"The cultural class is a little short, but I didn't pass it. Take the exam for another year."
Jing Ming satirized: "It seems that IQ is a problem."
"..." Du Ruo said, "Don't you often fail your exams too?"
Jing Ming turned the steering wheel and looked at her sideways: "I'm enrolled in university, can he?"
Tsk tsk tsk, Du Ruo couldn't stand him anymore, she rolled her eyes and looked out the window.
He kept sending her to the door of the tutor's community.
The car stopped, and she unbuckled her seat belt to get out of the car.
He called her: "Hey."
she turned back.
He put his arms around her waist and dragged her to him, lowered his head and bit her lips, sucking and biting vigorously, then pried open her lips and teeth in an instant, wrapped around her tongue, and sucked hard.
She was dizzy, whimpered in pain, and beat his shoulder several times with her fist. He just let go, glanced at her red and swollen lips, and smiled wickedly.
She looked resentful, wondering why he was laughing.
Her mouth hurt like hell, and she opened the door to get out of the car, regardless of calming down her beating heart.
"Hey, Du Ruochun." He called her again.
"Huh?" She turned around.
He bit his lip for a moment, then smiled and said, "I'm a Leo."
After speaking, the car door closed and the person left.
Du Ruo was puzzled on the spot, not understanding what he meant by saying this suddenly.
Leo, so grumpy like a lion
She walked into the community, pondered all the way, until she entered the student's house, she didn't understand it, and put the matter behind her in a blink of an eye.
