The sunshine in front of the window was warm. Zuo Yue was sitting on the balcony of the bedroom holding the cat. She was half asleep and half awake when she heard someone knocking on the door.

She opened her eyes and looked back in the direction of the bedroom door: Come in.

Xu Yuan pushed the door open and saw that Zuo Yue still looked like she was holding the cat in her arms and leaning on the sofa all day long. She couldn't help but walked over: You have been back for many days, why are you like this every day? You seem to be ignoring everyone? Also, the cats you raise should be kept out in front of your father as little as possible. In the past two days, the old man has been scolding you in front of me and your father. No, you know your grandfather has a bad temper, why do you just like to go against him?

He knew that his mother suddenly came to see him, and it must have something to do with his grandfather.

Zuo Yue leaned on the sofa without moving, squinting at the sunshine outside the window, and sighed: Mom, grandpa doesn't like anyone except Cheng Xin. Who else has he liked in our Zuo family? Me I rarely get in front of him anymore, and he would scold me for it. If I ran in front of grandpa every day like that Cheng Xin, I would have been scolded to the point of losing my temper.

You also know that Cheng Xin comes to see your grandpa every day? Whose real grandpa is that? Why can't you learn from Miss Cheng? Go and say nice things to the old man and be coquettish, otherwise you, your biological granddaughter, will His status is about to be overtaken by others.

Zuo Yue twitched the corner of her mouth: I have a purpose for becoming a core, and you know it, Mom. How can I be a granddaughter who wants to be a family? She has been persisting for several years to win the favor of grandpa. She only wants to I want to be the granddaughter-in-law of the Zuo family.

Seeing that Zuo Yue spoke so straightforwardly, Xu Yuan didn't say much, but she obviously understood in her heart.

Xu Yuan sat on another single sofa in front of the window and looked at Zuo Yue's laziness: You don't seem to be interested in anything after you came back from Boston this time. Are you worried?

Zuo Yue's eyes paused and he didn't answer. He just lowered his head and rubbed the cat in his arms against his neck, then stroked the cat in his arms, as if he didn't intend to answer.

Is it a relationship issue?

No. Zuo Yue raised her hand and rubbed her nose: Mom, I've been trying hard to put on all the weight I lost recently. Didn't you find that I can eat and drink recently and my complexion is rosy? I'm just a little lazy. , what do you have to worry about?

Your uncle specifically asked us to take you back before he left. He also said that you were not in a good relationship and asked us to pay more attention to it. But seeing that you are indeed able to eat and drink after you come back, I wasn't too worried. Just now. If Wang Ma hadn't said that it's not normal for you to lock yourself in your room every day and feel quiet, I wouldn't have had the intention to come over and talk to you. Xu Yuan said softly: Your grandpa's death is approaching, and the Xu family There are too many things for me to deal with in the Zuo family. Mom just hopes that whether it is a relationship problem or anything unhappy, you can think about it and don't get into trouble.

Zuo Yue said hmm and said nothing more.

Have you called your uncle recently?

No.

Did you guys completely cut off contact after we separated? Xu Yuan raised her eyebrows vaguely.

Somehow, even though there was nothing wrong with her mother's words, Zuo Yue still had a vague feeling that her mother was trying to ask something.

Is it because the suspicion from last time has not been completely dispelled?

Zuo Yue immediately raised his eyes and looked at her: My uncle, who is usually so busy, took care of me when he was in Boston. It was all because of you, mother. Now that he is finally free, he doesn't even contact the Xu family. I haven’t kept in touch with you much, so why would you call me specifically?”

Xu Yuan paused, then suddenly bypassed the topic on the phone and asked directly: Zuo Yue, what is your impression of your uncle?

What impression?

What do you think of your uncle?

...It's okay. Zuo Yue really didn't want to mention that person, but her mother kept mentioning Xu Chengfeng. This made Zuo Yue's heart, which was trying to suppress and calm every day, feel like waves again. It hurts like a pin prick.

When a person says he is leaving, he leaves; when he says he has completely cut off contact, he means he is completely cut off from contact.

Let alone a phone call or even a text message, he never sent it again.

It was like disappearing from her life without a trace.

Your uncle is also old enough to get married. I don't know if his little girlfriend I saw when I went there last time left with him. Xu Yuan mentioned this matter again casually.

Don't ask me about this kind of thing, I don't know either. After Zuo Yue answered vaguely, he directly pulled up the blanket on his body and said lazily: I'm so sleepy, I really want to sleep.

As she said that, she closed her eyes and made a gesture to sleep for a while.

Still sleeping? There are twenty-four hours a day, and you can sleep for almost sixteen or seventeen hours every day. Do you come back from vacation just to sleep? Grandpa, you are too lazy to act coquettishly, and you are too lazy to participate in things at home. You know how to hold these cats every day, do you plan to live with cats for the rest of your life?

Zuo Yue immediately opened her eyes: Even if I really spend the rest of my life with a cat, it's better than finding someone who makes you feel like you can't be together and worrying about it and getting angry.

Xu Yuan's expression froze and she immediately looked at her: What did you say?

Sure enough, I was still too impulsive.

If her mother hadn't kept mentioning Xu Chengfeng's matter just now, she would have been calmer, but now she was really upset and uncomfortable.

She simply said nothing and pulled the blanket over her head as if refusing to communicate.

Xu Yuan looked at her thoughtfully for a while, then suddenly turned her eyes to look at the row of small dolls in the crystal box on the cabinet beside Zuoyue's bed. After thinking about it, she didn't want to make things so complicated.

No matter what, she always felt that she might be thinking too much.

Even if Zuo Yue is young and ignorant, Xu Chengfeng must be sensible, so the relationship between those simple uncles and nephews should always be that simple relationship and nothing else.

But who was the person Zuo Yue mentioned that she felt she couldn't be with?

Zuo Yue.

Oh, Mom, just think that I accidentally fell in love with a married man. Is this explanation enough? Stop guessing and let me sleep for a while! Zuo Yue said in a muffled voice while hiding under the blanket. .

Xu Yuan's breath froze immediately: Zuo Yue, you must have limits as a human being.

Knowing that her mother was a little convinced by the reason for her random talk, Zuo Yue did not say a word, just burying her face in a piece of cat hair, her nose gradually became sore.
