As soon as these words came out, the surroundings instantly fell into a dead silence, as if even the air was frozen.
Lu Huai and his eyebrows jumped violently.
He knew that Shen Zhijin looked over again, even if he didn't raise his head to look, he could still feel that piercing and icy gaze pressing over him as if it were real.
It seems that there is a transparent enchantment covering this small square world, all the hustle and bustle are separated, leaving only the almost suffocating silence.
Then, Lu Huaiyu slowly raised his eyes, and said calmly:
"Mr. Shen, it seems that Ali is very drunk."
Shen Zhijin didn't answer his words.
Because at this time, Shen Li was still half leaning on Lu Huaiyu's arms, and her eyes were also looking at him.
"Lu Huai and."
It seemed like a long while before Shen Zhijin opened his mouth, his voice was exceptionally calm and clear.
He seldom directly called Lu Huaiyu's full name like this, and when he shouted it at this time, he was obviously not emotional, but Lu Huaiyu obviously felt that the surrounding temperature dropped a lot.
Shen Zhijin looked at him with a calm tone.
"Did you hear what she just said?"
Lu Huai and: "."
His throat was a little dry, and after a while, he nodded, with a very serious expression:
"It's true that Ali can't be allowed to drink casually in the future, what do you think?"
Shen Zhijin just looked at him like that, didn't speak, as if he didn't hear his words at all.
The two seemed to be caught in some kind of subtle confrontation.
In terms of getting drunk, it's actually nothing. Shen Li doesn't drink well, but today Lin Fengmian's concert ended successfully, so she drank two more glasses when she was happy. It's quite normal.
As for being drunk and talking nonsense, that's normal.
But.
The most important thing is - when Shen Li asked that sentence just now, her tone was so natural.
So what happened that made her turn her head to look at Lu Huaiyu after she heard "go home" after she was drunk, and said this sentence so smoothly
Time seems to pass quickly, but also very slowly.
During this period of time, Shen Zhijin split up Shen Li's short sentence and repeatedly interpreted it word by word.
No matter how you think about it, how you arrange it, how you solve it, there seems to be no second answer.
Lu Huai and the hands supporting Shen Li also seemed to be hot, and it was not true to touch, and it would be more guilty not to touch.
He really didn't expect that he would hear such a sentence from Shen Li.
The little girl is worried that his marriage to his wife will be too smooth!
explain
There is no way out in the current situation, and he seems to have to explain.
But Lu Huaiyu can be sure that if he really speaks out those things in the past to defend himself, he can open up a way out, it's just—
dead end.
So he made a decisive decision and looked at Shen Li:
"A Li, when Mr. Shen and I are not around, we are not allowed to drink casually by ourselves, you know?"
After the words fell, the little girl in front of her blinked, as if she didn't quite understand.
But Shen Zhijin who was standing not far away did indeed sneer.
Very light, very light.
Lu Huai and: "."
"Tangtang."
Shen Zhijin finally looked away from Lu Huai and his body, and looked at Shen Li.
Compared with the usual gentleness, this sound was slightly unusually calm.
Lu Huaiyu heard it, but Shen Li didn't.
She didn't even realize right away that it was calling her.
So, she ignored Shen Zhijin at all, but still looked at Lu Huaiyu.
Seeing that the man in front of her remained still, she frowned slightly.
Why don't you move
Why doesn't he hug her
Don't you want to go home
Shen Zhijin didn't expect that she didn't respond when he called her, and was about to call again:
"sugar-"
The rest of his words failed to come out.
Because Shen Li raised her hand, hugged Lu Huaiyu's neck, and buried it in the crest of his neck.
"Okay."
She was very self-conscious and very obedient when she spoke,
"let's go."
Lu Huai knew from a long time ago, when he saw Yu Pingchuan chopping up that white chicken in the kitchen, that it was not easy to marry a wife.
But he really never imagined that it would be so difficult.
That's all for Yu Pingchuan, and Mr. Mei can barely handle it. As for the members of the Gu family, he went to Hong Kong City as her boyfriend before she met them.
These are just minor obstacles.
The most difficult thing is Shen Zhijin.
After all, she is his only relative in this world now, and she is also the jewel in his palm that he finally found after suffering eighteen years of loneliness.
Shen Zhijin really hurt her to the bone.
But now, Lu Huaiyu felt that this "pain" was transferred to him.
Of course, it is pure "pain".
Lu Huaiyu closed his eyes and regained his senses.
He looked up at Shen Zhijin again, with a sincere expression:
"Mr. Shen, I don't think Ah Li is too drunk, otherwise I'll ask someone to prepare a hangover soup first?"
Shen Zhijin didn't look at him, but raised his legs and walked this way.
The distance between the two sides was close, and after he walked around Xiaoji, he came to the front.
Lu Huai and Yao hugged Shen Li, and they were sitting on the sofa with her, while Shen Zhijin was standing, which seemed a little more condescending.
"Tangtang."
Shen Zhijin called her again, the voice was a little louder than before, and the tone was also a little deeper.
If this sound is heard by someone who is familiar with Shen Zhijin, they will know that he is extremely dangerous at this time.
Of course, Lu Huaiyu also felt this - even though he and Teacher Shen were not so familiar.
Shen Li vaguely heard someone shouting something in her ear, and it seemed to be shouting towards her, so she was stunned for a moment, then raised her head and looked in the direction of the voice.
A handsome and clean face came into view.
Meeting Shen Li's dazed and blank eyes, Shen Zhijin's heart softened instantly, and the many emotions that had been surging before were covered by heartache.
The first time I knew her was because of Xu Yin.
He heard her name many times from Xu Yin's mouth, and later read her thesis.
Before meeting him, he knew she was outstanding.
After meeting and getting along with her for several months, he understood that this little girl is a very strong and independent character.
But at this moment, he had never seen her expression before.
Even if she didn't say anything, she just looked over, inexplicably made Shen Zhijin's heart hurt as if something had pulled her.
He lowered his voice:
"Tangtang, come here."
Shen Li's mind was full of confusion, she looked at Shen Zhijin for a long time, and finally let go of Lu Huaiyu.
She held Shen Zhijin's hand, bent her eyes and smiled:
"dad."
Shen Zhijin rubbed her hair.
"Good, go home."
Shen Li nodded: "Okay."
Lu Huai and then stood up, feeling a little relieved:
"Teacher Shen, Ali, I'll see you off—"
"Tangtang."
Shen Zhijin didn't turn around and leave immediately, instead he asked a question very calmly and casually.
He pointed to Lu Huaiyu, word by word:
"How many times have you had a drink with him before?"
