The first person to recognize Gu Qian was Lai Yang's mother. She called out "Xiao Qian" in great surprise.
This title seemed to break some taboo, broke some time wall, and made Lai Yang feel uncomfortable.
Gu Qian was the same. Her beautiful brows furrowed, and her cheeks, which had just been rosy, suddenly turned as pale as rice paper.
Yes, she might not have forgotten that when she went to her home for the first time during the summer vacation of her junior year, her parents called her like this, and her mother also held her hand and talked to her a lot.
But now things have changed.
So this old name shook the new time and once again shook out those dusty tears that should have been squeezed out long ago.
Then Lai Yang saw that her eyes were red.
The mother probably didn’t expect that this name could have such great “power”. She was a little embarrassed, and then quickly changed the subject and asked her if she was feeling unwell.
Gu Qian shook her head and said nothing.
But the mother was still very sharp-eyed. She lowered her head and just glanced at the test report in Gu Qian's hand, and her face suddenly froze.
After a moment, she smiled palely again: "Oh~Xiao Qian, are you here alone?"
"No... Also, my parents."
Lai Yang's father uttered a long "oh" and said with an awkward smile: "I thought the man in the hall looked familiar. He should be your father. OK, then go and get busy. I think they are waiting anxiously."
Lai Yang was silent on the side. He could basically guess his parents' mood.
Because he and Gu Qian's parents had met each other before, it seemed as if marriage was only one step away.
But it is this step where the slightest mistake can lead to a huge disaster.
Gu Qian said goodbye, then glanced at Lai Yang, said nothing more, turned around and walked towards the hall. After a few steps, she was blocked by the crowd.
At this time, the parents' faces were extremely ugly, but they endured and said nothing. They took the elevator with Lai Yang to the second mother's ward.
…
In the ward, Lai Yang pushed the door open and found that only his second father was accompanying his second mother who was lying on the sickbed.
Second Mother looked very weak, with an IV hanging on the back of her hand. Lai Yang knew that she had always had high blood pressure, and it seemed that this incident had a deep impact on her.
Seeing Lai Yang and his parents coming over, the second father immediately stood up to greet them. The second mother also struggled to lean forward, and Lai Yang's mother quickly stepped forward and told her not to move and just lie down.
Dad put the fruit he was carrying on the cabinet next to the bed and asked about my second dad's condition.
My second father looked much thinner. I still remember that when he was a child, he was the only one in the factory who could drive a truck. He was very capable and strong at that time. Every time he drove back to the factory, a group of children would follow behind the car and scream.
Yuan Shengda is always proud of him. It is also because of the protection of her second father that she has developed such a fearless character.
In the blink of an eye, he turned into the thin man in front of him, with his back hunched when he spoke.
Life has left wrinkles on his face, his skin is dry, and his eyes always seem to be covered with a veil, without the spirit of his youth.
Not only him, but also his stepmother and his own parents are like this.
Lai Yang suddenly felt that he was an unfilial son and his mood became gloomy.
During the chat, everyone seemed to avoid the issue of Yuan Shengda breaking off the engagement, and simply asked about the second mother's illness.
It was not until a long while later that Second Dad asked Lai Yang what the relationship was between that man named Li Dian and Qing'er
Lai Yang quickly realized what was happening and replied, "He was the first person we started doing theater with, and he's also a very good friend of Qingqing."
"oh… "
The second father and mother looked at each other, and after a short silence, they said, "Yang, Qing'er has gone downstairs to buy food. Go talk to her. I have something to talk to your parents about."
"… good."
Lai Yang walked forward, shook his second mother's hand, exchanged a few words, and then left the ward.
When he left, he looked back and found that everyone was looking at him. At this moment, Lai Yang basically guessed what they were going to talk about.
…
After leaving the hospital building, Lai Yang was just about to call Yuan Shengda when he saw her walking towards him alone, carrying two lunch boxes.
Yuan Shengda's eyes moved and she found Lai Yang. She opened her mouth slightly and her oval face was full of surprise.
The two of them were about five or six meters apart. After staring at each other for a while, Yuan Shengda strode in and asked, "Why are you back?"
"My second mother is in the hospital, how can I not come back?"
Lai Yang took the lunch box from her hand, looked at Yuan Shengda in front of him, and suddenly wanted to hug her, very much!
"Hey, why are you looking at me like that?" she asked with a twinkle in her eyes.
Lai Yang came back to his senses and said awkwardly: "I... I thought I wouldn't be able to see you for a while, so I just looked at you a few more times."
"Humph, you're eager for me to leave, right? Besides your own Jing Jing, is there anyone else you want to see?"
Laiyang
She curled her lips, avoiding the topic and said, "You posted a circle of friends when you came back. Did you block me? What does this mean?"
"Why, I can't decide my own circle of friends?"
"Uh... No, why are you so angry today?"
Yuan Shengda suddenly kicked Lai Yang's calf, and said angrily, "This is all your fault. Who told you to bring Li Dian here?"
"Ah? This... This has nothing to do with me. He wanted to come here on his own, and he doesn't care about the theater anymore. I can't stop him."
"I don't care, get him away, get him away quickly! What a psycho!"
Lai Yang reached out and touched his face, looked at her and asked, "Where is Li Dianren?"
Yuan Sheng's eyes widened, and he put on a horrified expression: "He is everywhere now, you know? I am even afraid that I might run into him when I go to the toilet."
"Is it so exaggerated?" Lai Yang was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
"Don't believe it? Why don't you try shouting it out?"
After saying this, Lai Yang looked around and did not see Li Dian, but he still took a deep breath and shouted: "Li Dian - Li Dian -"
After waiting for a while, Lai Yang looked down at Yuan Shengda and said, "See, you are still exaggerating. There is no one here."
Yuan Sheng turned angrily and looked at the crowd behind him and shouted.
"Li Yuanba!"
"Hey~"
Immediately, Li Dian popped out from a convenience store, carrying a box of pure milk, with an embarrassed look on his face.
After seeing Lai Yang, he leaned back slightly, then licked his lips and walked towards him with hesitant steps.
Lai Yang was stunned. As soon as he came up to say hello, Yuan Shengda kicked him hard and called him a psycho.
Li Dian, blushing as he held the milk, said that he just wanted to be nicer to his aunt. How could this be considered insane
As soon as he opened his mouth, Yuan Shengda reached out and grabbed his collar and scratched his face. Li Dian shrank his neck like a turtle, dodging and begging for mercy.
The most bizarre thing is that he actually had a happy smile on his face...
It's very weird!
But on second thought, maybe... Li Dian likes this feeling.
But Lai Yang knew clearly that Yuan Shengda had no love for Li Dian at all. Even Aru couldn't turn his emotion into love, so how could Li Dian, who was as dull as a stone, do it
So, will there be an ending for these two
If so, will the final ending be a tragedy or a comedy
