Back to 2002

After half a holiday, Lin Qinghe is good at cooking, not only can fry eggs, but also cook a few simple home-cooked dishes, all of which taste good.

Mengmeng has a part-time job every two or three days, sometimes as a graphic model, sometimes in a bar to sing, and sometimes to distribute flyers or something, all of which can be done in two or three days. The rest of the time is spent spending time with Lin Qinghe, or taking him to study together.

Their school divides classes once a semester, and divides them into key and non-key classes according to their grades.Lin Qinghe did well in the final exam this time, and he will be in the same class with Mengmeng next semester, so he has to work harder, otherwise it will be embarrassing to be left behind.

"It's almost Chinese New Year, did your family urge you to go back?"

Hearing what he said, Mengmeng looked up at him, "Is your family urging you to go home? Or you can go back, I can do it myself."

Lin Qinghe frowned, "Hearing what you mean, why do you feel that you won't go home during the Chinese New Year?"

"Go back, how could you not go home, I'm still waiting to go home to collect the New Year's money." Although Mengmeng spoke in a high voice, her mood was very low, and she didn't have the joy of a child looking forward to the New Year's money.

Lin Qinghe touched his head, and wanted to ask him what kind of conflict he had with his family, why Mengmeng's mood was so low when he mentioned family matters, but he was afraid that Mengmeng didn't want others to ask, so he asked give up.

"How about I wrap you a big red envelope too?"

"You want to be my parent?"

"Call Dad and listen."

Mengmeng looked back at him with a smile, and kissed him on the mouth, "Dad."

Lin Qinghe didn't expect that he would really yell, and he was so startled that he almost fell off the chair.

He raised his hand to cover Mengmeng's mouth, "Scream well, why kiss me?"

Mengmeng's mouth was covered by him, and he couldn't answer, so he could only hum with his nose. After humming a few times, he found that the other party didn't intend to let go, so he stuck out his tongue and licked his palm.

His palm felt numb after licking it, and he quickly let go of it.

"Just play a hooligan."

"I'm not kidding you."

Lin Qinghe gave him a blank look, and poked his head, "You have these unscrupulous things in your head all day long, why do you still get such high marks in the exam?"

"Because I have special abilities."

"Stop it."

"I really have supernatural powers." After Mengmeng finished speaking, she made Lin Qinghe's leg, raised her leg and put her foot on Lin Qinghe's shoulder, "Do you think normal people are as soft as me?"

Lin Qinghe grabbed his ankle and wanted to take it off for him, but when his fingers touched his smooth skin, he was a little reluctant to throw it away, and grabbed and touched it twice.

"Are my legs white?"

"Bai, it's white, long and slippery, are you satisfied?" Lin Qinghe hurriedly took it off for him in fear that he would get tired.

Mengmeng took advantage of the situation and wrapped her legs around his waist, straightened her waist forward, bumped into Lin Qinghe face to face, and almost knocked Lin Qinghe back into reaction.

Lin Qinghe didn't think about pushing him away like before, but hugged him and asked, "Have you practiced dancing before?"

"No, I have practiced yoga. I want to make my body softer. I can do more postures."

"I know nothing good can come out of your mouth."

"Okay, then I won't say anything, can I do well?" Mengmeng was about to take off her pants after speaking, and just as Lin Qinghe was about to stop him, his phone rang.

He glanced at the phone screen in a blink of an eye, and if it wasn't someone important, then ignore it and continue to mess with Lin Qinghe, but when he saw the word "Mom" in front of the screen, his face immediately changed, and he hurried away from the phone. Lin Qinghe stood up and took the phone to the living room to answer it.

"Mengmeng, it's almost Chinese New Year, come back, don't work part-time, you're too tired, mom will give you more pocket money."

Holding the phone, Mengmeng felt a little tangled in her heart. Although his adoptive father was not a good person, his adoptive mother was still very good. She treated him like her own son and never treated him badly.

It's really unreasonable not to go back to spend the New Year with his mother, but he doesn't want to see that man.

He knew that the man who apologized to him before was not sincere, but just to trick him back, that's why he said that.

He hit that man with a brick before, and that man must have been upset. He called him back just to find a chance to get revenge.

That man dared to blatantly pick the lock to enter his room, there is nothing he can't do.

"Mengmeng, are you listening? Is the signal bad? Why can't I hear your voice?"

"No, I'm listening."

"Then why don't you answer me? Mom asked when you will come back for the New Year?"

Mengmeng walked from the living room to the balcony, and locked herself on the balcony. The balcony was open-air, and the ground was covered with snow. The two of them usually didn't come to the balcony very often, so they didn't sweep here.

He squatted on the ground and scribbled on the ground with his fingers. It took a long time before he said: "I won't go back, I'm too busy with work."

There was a little helplessness in his words, but he had to do it.

"When you come back, your mother will cook you something delicious, and your father will drive you to work in the morning. You don't need to live outside."

Hearing the word father, Mengmeng frowned, "I want to exercise my ability to take care of myself..."

"Wait until you grow up to exercise, now go home first."

Mengmeng replied with some embarrassment, "Mom..."

There was a sigh on the other side of the phone, the two of them dealt with it for a while, and finally his mother finally compromised, "Okay, if you don't come back, don't come back, then your father and I will go to see you and bring you something delicious , or I won't worry about you."

Mengmeng hesitated for a moment, "Then can you come by yourself?"

"Are you..." Her mother was silent for a while, as if she didn't know what to say.

Without saying anything, the two of them froze for a while before her mother said again: "Do you know what happened last time? Your father was just impulsive."

Mengmeng's heart skipped a beat when she heard this, "You know he..."

He didn't know what to say. Could it be that his mother knew what that man did to him?

"Last time, he hit me on impulse. Don't blame him. He has already apologized to me. He won't do it anymore. Don't be angry with your father."

Although what his mother said was not the same thing as what he was worried about, Mengmeng still did not breathe a sigh of relief.

"Mom, he beat you to the hospital, how could you forgive him so easily?"

"He didn't mean it."

"But if there is a first time, there must be a second time, not to mention that the last time he hit you was not the first time, right?"

His mother obviously didn't want to discuss this topic with him, so she hurriedly said, "Okay, then I'll go see you by myself, and you send me the address."

Mengmeng sighed, said yes, and then hung up the phone.

Within two days, Lin Qinghe went back, and Mengmeng lied to him that her parents would come to accompany him to celebrate the New Year, so she told him not to worry.

Lin Qinghe also wanted to stay and celebrate the New Year with him, but his family didn't allow it, and it was too embarrassing to celebrate the New Year with Mengmeng and his parents in this state.

Or wait a little longer.When he can really take on this responsibility, it will not be too late to stand upright in front of his parents and say that he likes Mengmeng.

In the past few days when Lin Qinghe was away, Mengmeng arranged a few more jobs for herself, which squeezed all the time, leaving only the time for sleeping.

That night, he went to the bar to sing, and didn't come back until after two o'clock in the morning.

When going upstairs, the voice-activated light in the corridor was broken. He could walk home with his eyes closed this way, and he didn't care too much. He went upstairs and took out the key to open the door.

As soon as he entered, before he had time to close the door, the door was held down by a big hand, and a man squeezed in from the door.

Mengmeng was startled, and the key in her hand dropped to the ground.

"Why, I was so excited when I saw Dad coming." After the man finished speaking, he raised his hand and closed the door behind him, and squeezed Mengmeng's face with a smile, "Are you alone at home today? Are you afraid of the dark? Do you want me to accompany you?" ?”
