at the dinner table.
Qin Guanglin sucked the crab's legs into his mouth, his eyes turned back and forth on the faces of the two women.
It seems a little strange.
"This crab paste is rich, why not try it." Qin Ma broke open a crab, and handed it to He Wu's plate with a hey sound.
"Thank you... Auntie."
Why not lower your head and purse your lips.
"Eat quickly." Qin's mother was so happy that she rolled her eyes, she was in such a good mood...
"What are you looking at?" She turned her head and saw Qin Guanglin Gaba Gaba biting a crab leg, peeking at herself with lowered eyes, and couldn't help but clicked, "Eat!"
"oh."
Qin Guanglin didn't know what happened to these two people, so he just ate his own food with peace of mind.
Anyway, it must be a good thing to see the happy look of the old lady.
"It's said that the green island crabs are delicious, but in fact they're just that. They're similar to the ones in our city of Los Angeles. It's not as good as they say... The crabs raised in the Luohe River are much fresher than those in his place."
While eating the crabs, he did not forget to comment a few words, the green island crabs are amazing, they are not as good as advertised.
"How do you compare different varieties? It's pure nonsense."
Mother Qin can tell the difference between crabs and crabs, unlike Qin Guanglin who only knows crabs.
"I wanted to bring back some special products, but the special products over there are all seafood, so I gave up. I'll take you for a stroll next time."
"No, you can just go and play. My old arms and legs will stay at home and I won't go anywhere - Los Angeles is so big that I don't even bother to go out to play, let alone go to other places." Mother Qin shook her head "You guys are full of energy when you are young, and you have a great life. You also climb mountains and swim. Like when we were young, we went to the mountains to collect grass and feed pigs every day. Climbing a mountain is the same as going to work. You have never done that kind of thing. I feel that mountain climbing is new, hey, give me money now so that I don’t even have to climb…”
"Okay, okay, don't climb, don't talk about your glorious deeds of feeding pigs." Qin Guanglin didn't know how many times he heard Qin's mother talk about the hardships at that time, so he nodded to stop, paused and corrected: "That's not called climbing mountains and swimming , that’s called traveling in mountains and rivers.”
"I like to call it mountain climbing and swimming." Qin's mother stared, "Is it still showing off after two years of study?"
"Why don't you say which one?"
"Climbing and swimming."
"..."
Qin Guanglin was at a loss for words, gnawed at the crab silently, and muttered after a while: "When I finish what I am doing, I will draw you two on the official account."
He said that he was busy with the work at hand, and just after dinner, he plunged into the studio again, and ran over to work for the next few days, until he started working after the National Day. Wash it off and put it on again the next day.
It looks like a big project.
Why not come here all the time, stay at home for the next two days to prepare for school work and write novels, come to buy vegetables and cook with Qin's mother at meal time, and then the three of them eat together, and watch TV with Qin's mother at night.
Although he didn't know what Qin Guanglin was up to, since he said it was a surprise, why didn't he secretly watch it, but the sense of anticipation in his heart was getting stronger and stronger by his mysterious appearance—this dead straight man sometimes The surprise turned into a fright, but the painting aspect is still very reliable.
"What is this kid doing?"
Qin's mother couldn't restrain her curiosity, she wanted to sneak in several times to have a look, but who would have thought that Qin Guanglin was such a dog, not only locked the door when he was inside, but also took the key to lock the studio with the key when he went back to sleep at night Wake up, treat it like a baby and don't even let people look at it.
"I don't know, he kept it a secret."
After dinner, He Wei sat on the sofa, looked back at the closed studio door, and shook his head to express that he didn't know.
"This kid... I guess he's drawing the two of you." Qin's mother looked determined, "Maybe he was drawing your wedding photo."
"No... right?" Hearing what she said, He Wei was really not sure.
Qin Guanglin is stupid, thinking about when to get married every day, and now he can't wait to draw a wedding photo first... It's something he can do.
"I think it's quite possible."
Qin's mother grinned, the topic was related to marriage, so she had to say something, she moved her buttocks to He Wu's side, and whispered: "Have you discussed it?"
"What?" He Wei's heart skipped a beat.
"Oh, just... that's all. When did you get married? He must have discussed it with you, right? Every time I ask him, he always talks about it. You talk to your aunt, how did you discuss it?"
Mother Qin wouldn't be in such a hurry if the two were talking about friends normally. Now that they've been living together for more than a year, it's not right to be so bored without getting married.
"This... haven't discussed it yet, he said to prepare first." Why not throw the blame on Qin Guanglin without hesitation.
After a pause, she continued: "And it's not just about the two of us, there's a lot to consider... It's better to take it slowly."
Qin's mother couldn't help nodding, "Well, yes, this is a big matter, of course there are a lot of things to consider... The most important thing is what you two think."
"Our idea is that... we will definitely get married." He Wei smiled crookedly, "No matter sooner or later, this marriage will definitely come to an end, Auntie, don't worry, we two are fine, it's fine, just take it easy It's good to take your time."
"I'm not worried, not worried."
Squeak.
The studio door rang.
Qin Guanglin came out with his arms outstretched, put aside the old coat he was wearing for painting, and walked to the bathroom.
"Come out so early today, finished painting?"
"No, I have to dry it first, and then continue painting tomorrow."
"oh… "
Qin's mother looked at the unlocked studio door, and then at the bathroom. She pushed her shoulders and said furtively, "Do you want to go over and take a sneak peek?"
"Not good..." He Wei listened to the sound of rushing water in the bathroom, and was a little moved.
"Just take a look and see what the hell he's up to these days." Qin Ma continued to encourage, looking at the bathroom, and quietly stood up.
In the past, it took at most two days to complete the painting. Qin Guanglin has been working on it for almost a week this time, and she hasn't finished it yet. She is full of curiosity and always wants to see what big project he is working on.
Why not stand up hesitantly, and also want to see what the hell he is up to this week in advance, so as not to be really shocked when it happens.
"What are you doing?!"
"No, nothing."
The two people who had just got up sat back on the sofa with a bang, their backs straightened, as if nothing had happened.
Unexpectedly, Qin Guanglin didn't forget to poke his head out to watch them while washing his hands in the bathroom.
"I just wanted to get a glass of water..."
Qin Ma looked around guiltily, and got up to pour tea with the cup in her hands, "Why don't you drink more water before going back."
"Good auntie."
Qin Guanglin came out shaking his hands, looked at the two vigilantly, took out the key and turned the lock of the studio door twice before he was relieved.
If it is a surprise, it must be a surprise. If you read it in advance, you can call it a fart surprise.
Why don't you wait until you finish drinking the water in the cup, the two greet Qin's mother, and walk back arm in arm.
"After painting so early today, do you want to go to the gym?" He Wu asked.
"No... I'm a little tired, let's rest first." Qin Guanglin rubbed his shoulders and shook his head, "I'll go in a few days."
"Then I'll rub it for you."
He might as well smile and sit behind Qin Guanglin, put his soft hands on his shoulders and squeeze gently, "Is it okay?"
"Well, try harder."
"Then sit down... forget it, get down."
She hugged Qin Guanglin onto the bed, turned over and sat on his back, poohed her hands twice, rubbed them together, and said with a smile, "I'm going to use my strength."
"How big can you get... Whoops!"
Qin Guanglin felt a numbness in his shoulders before he finished speaking, and his whole body tensed up, "Hey... hiss~ this is fine, yes, that's it."
He closed his eyes and hummed softly, his stiff muscles slowly relaxed, and the fatigue from painting all day disappeared under her hands.
Needless to say, this little hand is quite strong.
…
After dinner, Sun Wen, who had taken a few days off work, looked around in the mirror. The bruises on his face had completely disappeared before he put on his clothes and went to work.
The gym is scattered during the day and there are not many people, and it is really lively at night.
"Brother Wen, are you coming to work?"
"Well, here we come."
"I haven't seen Brother Wen for several days."
"Something happened a few days ago."
After entering the gym, Sun Wen and his colleagues greeted each other and walked into the locker room. Looking back, they felt something was wrong.
Their smiles are kind of weird.
"coming?"
After changing his clothes, the supervisor came out of the cubicle just in time to bump into Sun Wen. After a pause, he came over and patted him on the shoulder, "We'll have a meeting later."
"good."
Sun Wen frowned, walked into the cubicle with his clothes in his arms, changed his clothes and came to the office a few minutes later, there were seven or eight people already seated, just waiting for him.
"Cough... everyone is here, so there is no delay. Today's meeting is mainly to emphasize—"
The supervisor held a plastic stick and pointed to the staff rules hanging on the back, "Every rule and every rule above must be strictly followed, especially the last two."
"Usually you are all lazy, not many people watch this, and something happened..." He glanced at Sun Wen, and continued: "Someone came to the gym to make trouble, everyone knows this, we are a serious gym, It’s all about keeping fit.”
"Chi..."
"Ha ha."
The people below laughed.
Sun Wen looked at him expressionlessly, not knowing what had happened.
Everyone probably knew about being caught for rape, but they didn't say it clearly... This was something that everyone had tacitly understood, and it hadn't been revealed.
The supervisor looked a little unnaturally at Sun Wen, so he looked away and continued to speak: "Usually you dawdle and touch customers, but the company always turns a blind eye—whether it's for performance or for your It's okay to be careful, but I didn't care too much.
But the boss issued a death order this time, and he can't do anything in the future, let alone fumble around. Listen carefully, you will be fined once and fired twice. "
"Then I'm still selling a fart class." Sun Wen twitched the corners of his mouth and stood up unsteadily, "You guys can play by yourself."
boom!
The door was slammed shut, leaving everyone staring at each other.
