"You're stupid." Xue Jinian suddenly turned his head and swiped his nose twice, obviously not wanting Xue Xue to see the corners of his red eyes. "Do you think you're acting in a bittersweet drama? Pretend!"
After these two words fell, the man stepped on the accelerator and walked away, leaving Xue Xue only a tail gas.
Still such an indifference.
Combing the messed up hair back behind her ears, Xue Xue shook her head and laughed.
But that's fine.
Before turning around and entering the door, she looked up at the sky.
There are stars hanging on the ink-splashed night, not as bright as summer, but with a touching tenderness.
After Xue Xue entered the door, Ye Wen asked casually, "What did you say to your brother?"
Xue Xue winked at her.
"secret."
Ye Wen, who didn't expect such an answer, was taken aback for a moment, and then she gave her daughter an angry look.
"It's just you who have so many crazy ideas."
Saying that, she asked Xue Xue to bring out some snacks for drinking.
Xue Xue responded, turned and walked to the kitchen.
What she didn't notice was that after Ye Wen made sure she couldn't see it, she secretly rubbed her eyes twice with the back of her hand.
Really different.
Whether it is the temperament of the daughter or the relationship between the siblings.
Ye Wen never imagined that one day she could still look forward to this day.
The family is so harmonious and beautiful, how wonderful.
After a few cups of yellow soup, Xue Yonghua's eyes flashed a hint of admiration when he looked at Yi Lang, who was as calm as a normal person and responded like a fluent person.
The two of them chatted more happily.
"Mom, how much did they drink..."
"It's okay, it's rare for your dad to have someone drink with him, so let him drink to his heart's content."
"But Yi Lang..."
"Don't worry, that child knows what to do." Ye Wen patted her daughter's hand. "I think about it now, he is the big star you like very much, isn't he?"
Xue Xue was stunned.
"It was for him that you insisted on going to the magazine to become a reporter, right?"
Ye Wen seemed to see through Xue Xue's thoughts.
Facing the woman's kind gaze, the explanation that had already reached his lips suddenly couldn't be uttered.
In the end, Xue Xue pursed her lips tightly and nodded honestly.
Ye Wen didn't ask how she and Yi Lang met, and when did they establish their relationship, she just asked in a relaxed and natural tone like chatting, "Aren't you afraid?"
Xue Xue raised her eyes and met Ye Wen's gentle gaze.
In fact, Xue Zhiyou and Ye Wen are similar in birth, except that Ye Wen has short hair with noodles in clear soup, her face has been polished with frost, and her eyes show the wisdom and peace that have been tempered by time over the years.
She has always been a gentle and strong woman.
Whether in her career or at home, Ye Wen has always used her own methods to build a high wall that can keep out the wind and rain for the people and things she wants to protect.
She is Xue Zhiyou's role model.
"Mom, I always wanted to be like you."
At first glance, the answer was not what she asked, but Ye Wen immediately understood what her daughter meant.
Her eyes moved slightly, and the emotions in the woman's eyes were complicated, but she did not stop her from continuing to speak.
"Like when you were a child, you could resolutely quit a good job in the eyes of outsiders because of Xue Zhiyou's illness, and take your daughter to seek medical treatment. Even if you faced repeated disappointments, you never gave up."
"Even though it is difficult, it is not tears, but a smile to face."
"Maybe I haven't spoken to you, but... Mom, you and Dad are the ones who gave Xue Zhiyou the courage at that time and made her work hard to live."
"You set the best example with yourself, whether as Ye Wen, as Xue Yonghua's wife, or as the mother of Xue Zhiyou and Xue Zhinian."
Ye Wen stared at Xue Xue blankly.
"Xue Zhiyou is proud of her mother."
"So... I want to be like you too."
With that said, Xue Xue stepped forward and gave Ye Wen a hug.
It was full of Xue Zhiyou's feelings for her mother.
The love that was too late to express in the last life, the gratitude that was not expressed in time, the remorse and shame that the white-haired person sent the black-haired person... This life will be settled one by one, and Xue Xue will write a different ending by himself.
The burden on my heart disappeared in an instant.
It was Xue Zhiyou who was finally relieved.
For a moment, Ye Wen seemed to feel it.
It is both parting and rebirth.
It is a rare reunion in life.
"Children..."
The two lines of tears couldn't help falling, and Ye Wen's heart was sour and unbearable.
But she knew the dark clouds had dissipated.
This time, we will be able to see the real blue sky, not just the scenery painted on the window, deceiving ourselves.
"Don't worry, Mom."
Gently patted Ye Wen's shoulder, Xue Xue comforted Xue Zhiyou in a soft voice like Ye Wen coaxed Xue Zhiyou when she was a child, and made a promise like an oath.
"My daughter will live a good life."
That day, Yi Lang and Xue Yonghua drank until midnight.
Yi Lang, who admitted that his drinking capacity was not as good as his father-in-law, later took the water to the point of recognition.
After the two bottles were finished, Xue Yonghua had already regarded Yi Lang as a half son, and dragged him outside the courtyard to call it sobering up.
Xue Xue's mood was so ups and downs today that she couldn't stand with them until after eleven o'clock. After Ye Wen promised to keep an eye on the two of them, she would go back to the room first, take a bath and wash up, and then put it on the bedside table when she came out. The clock on the display shows just past.
This is not surprising.
What Xue Xue did not expect was to see Yi Lang sitting beside his bed with two long legs that had nowhere to rest in a strange posture, listening to music with headphones on.
