Luo Lian was fascinated by what he saw. He always felt that the distance between him and Gu Ziyi was a huge chasm. Even if he tried his best to reach it, he couldn't seem to reach the other side.
Luo Lian turned around and leaned his back against the railing. He still had the can of cold drink in his hand. The outside of the drink was frosted, and his hands were covered with water.
Inexplicable emotions welled up in my heart.
"Huh..." He breathed out.
It felt like there was something pressing on my heart.
He turned his head again and took a deep look at Gu Ziyi opposite him. He twitched the corners of his lips, revealing a faint smile. Then he left from the balcony.
Gu Ziyi, who was busy reading, didn't notice at all.
—
Just over a week later, it’s hot summer and it’s time for the college entrance examination.
It seems that only the college entrance examination is always accompanied by rainy days.
The rain seemed to fall endlessly.
These days, Luo Mingsheng and Qian Wenshi have been accompanying Luo Qianqian. During the last subject of the exam, Luo Mingsheng and Qian Wenshi drove Luo Qianqian to the exam center, and then the two of them waited in the car.
Time actually passes very quickly, but for the children taking exams in the examination room, it is a very long time.
This is also a psychological battle.
Children with poor psychological endurance will be very restless, nervous, and cramped.
Because parents and teachers always say the college entrance examination is extremely important. Once you fail, it seems like your entire life will be rejected.
Luo Qianqian's hand holding the pen was shaking. She was sitting by the window on the second floor.
She was still very nervous, afraid that she would fail. Although she may not necessarily go to a good university, she is afraid that she will not have the opportunity to go to school. Always in a panic.
These two hours were extremely difficult.
Some people answered quickly, and many people turned in their papers half an hour in advance.
Luo Qianqian waited until the end, and when only a few people were left, she handed in her papers and left.
When I walked out, I breathed much easier.
It seems that such a long study life has come to an end. I am obviously very happy, but there is also a feeling of reluctance in my heart.
When she walked out, it was still raining, drizzly.
Many parents are waiting.
She looked for Qian Wenshi in the crowd, and then saw Qian Wenshi squeezing through the crowd.
Qian Wenshi hugged her and protected her from the rain with an umbrella, "Go home."
"Yeah." Luo Qianqian showed a smile.
High school life is over.
Qian Wenshi led her back to the car. The two sat in the back seat together.
Luo Mingsheng sat in the passenger seat, and their driver drove.
Luo Mingsheng looked back at Luo Qianqian, "How do you feel about the exam?"
Luo Qianqian: "Well... not bad." She was not very confident.
"Okay, the exam is over now. Relax and relax. Dad has made a reservation at the hotel and we will have a meal together as a family in the evening." Luo Mingsheng did not ask further questions.
Luo Qianqian showed a big smile: "Okay."
The three of them went home first, and Luo Qianqian also changed her clothes.
In the evening, the pouring rain stopped and the weather improved.
The three of them went to the hotel Luo Mingsheng had booked in advance.
The table was very big, Luo Qianqian was next to Qian Wenshi, and the two of them looked at the menu together.
Luo Mingsheng stood by the window and made a call on his mobile phone. It took a while before hanging up the phone.
Luo Qianqian looked up at him and said nothing.
After ordering the food, Luo Qianqian was playing with her phone there.
After almost twenty minutes, the door to the private room was pushed open.
Luo Lian was wearing a dark suit and must have just gotten off work.
Luo Qianqian was stunned and suddenly felt a little embarrassed. I feel very uncomfortable in this situation.
Luo Mingsheng patted the chair next to him, "Are you sitting here?"
Luo Lian pulled out a chair, one position away from Luo Mingsheng. His expression was not soft, of course, nor was he deliberately stern, just a very indifferent expression.
Luo Mingsheng said: "Today our family will have a good time together."
When Luo Mingsheng said "family", Luo Qianqian couldn't help but glance at Luo Lian. As expected, Luo Lian frowned.
Qian Wenshi's expression was still very normal, which she should have expected. Luo Mingsheng had said before that he wanted to have dinner with Luo Lian.
The waiter brought all the dishes they ordered.
It smells delicious.
But Luo Qianqian didn't dare to move her chopsticks, so Qian Wenshi picked the food for her.
"Qianqian, now that you have finished the college entrance examination, you can relax in get out of class. You don't have to be so tense." Luo Mingsheng looked at Luo Qianqian with loving eyes.
Luo Qianqian smiled at him, "Yeah." In fact, her nervousness came from Luo Lian.
Luo Lian held the chopsticks with a natural expression and only picked what he liked to eat. He tried not to speak, not wanting to ruin the good time they had as a family of three.
"Luo Lian, you have to take more care of Qian Qian from now on." Luo Mingsheng said.
Luo Lian paused, raised his eyes, and looked straight at Luo Qianqian.
All the hairs on Luo Qianqian's body stood on end.
"She doesn't need my care," Luo Lian said.
Luo Mingsheng said: "You are her brother after all."
Luo Lian's face darkened.
Qian Wenshi immediately noticed Luo Lian's unhappiness, "Qianqian. If anything happens, just tell your parents. Your parents will always be your strongest support."
"Thank you mom, thank you dad." Luo Qian replied with a smile.
Luo Lian felt like he had no appetite anymore. He didn't want to come today. Luo Mingsheng asked Li Shuyuan to pester him all day, and then called him personally in the evening. Luo Lian felt there was no need to shirk.
"In a few days, I plan to return to the company." Luo Mingsheng looked at Luo Lian.
Luo Lian said "hmm". With Pei Jing's support, Luo Lian actually had great real power. Most of the things that happened during Luo Mingsheng's illness were decided by Luo Lian.
With Pei Jing's support, Luo Lian's plan is indeed progressing rapidly.
"Convene a plenary meeting first then." Luo Mingsheng had plans to abdicate.
A faint light flashed in Luo Lian's eyes, and he raised the corners of his lips: "Okay."
The relationship between Luo Mingsheng and Luo Lian has never been good.
During this period of time, Luo Mingsheng also reflected a lot. In the past, he could not listen to what others said. During this period, Li Shuyuan also said a lot, and Qian Wenshi also said a lot. So Luo Mingsheng thought a lot about the relationship between father and son.
He tried to ease the relationship between him and Luo Lian.
But Luo Lian is like an iron wall, no oil or salt can enter.
He didn't know what Luo Lian was thinking. Just realized that there were no memories left between him and Luo Lian.
Luo Lian took out a red envelope from his suit pocket and put it on the table. Then he turned the table and turned it to Luo Qianqian, "I don't have anything else to give you. I'll give you some money."
Luo Qianqian picked up the red envelope, which was heavy inside. She looked at Luo Lian, somewhat confused.
Luo Lian lost interest in eating. He straightened the collar of his suit and said, "The company still has a contract for me to follow up on, so I won't keep it any longer."
