Forcibly set
Chapter 4
No matter how much he wanted to see the old man, he had to go home first. When he dragged his suitcase into the small iron door with delicate carvings and pushed open the cold doorknob, Xu Jie was wrapped in a silk nightgown, still looking graceful. Leaning on the sofa with his body, he still hurt his eyes deeply.
Xu Lu casually dropped the suitcase on the floor, and kept the heavy down jacket in his arms, and put it on the hanger properly.
"Are you back?" Xu Jie flipped through a fashion magazine lazily, his voice was unmoving, his face was stiff, and only when he got close could he see that there was a thin layer of mask on her face.Like the inner skin of an egg.
Xu Lu kicked his slippers, sat down opposite Xu Jie, and breathed out from his nostrils when he sat still. "Um"
"How have you been recently?"
"Fortunately."
Xu Jie put away the magazine, and used his free index and middle fingers to tidy up the slightly crimson mask on the corner of his eyes, "One time your instructor called and said you were missing, where did you go?"
It's hard for him to remember this, Xu Lu lied naturally, "I went to the ski resort for a few days."
"The condition is not good?"
Xu Lu didn't respond, and rubbed his straight nose with his index finger and thumb.
"Your condition is not good and you need to adjust it is your business. Let me know after you leave next time, otherwise you will trouble many people in the future."
She paused, then glanced at Xu Lu with the end of her eyes, which was very meaningful. Her eyes were really beautiful, and she was naturally charming. To those eyes from start to finish, after years of baptism, the spirit inside is more and more revealed.
"Your affairs are your freedom, and I have no right to interfere. However, since you have become a natural person in the legal sense, you should be responsible for your own affairs. This is what I agreed with you since childhood."
Xu Lu was stunned for a moment, he never doubted that Xu Jie knew about him and Zeng Jibei for a long time, with this woman's terrifying insight.But even though the relationship between her and himself seemed to be bound by legal responsibilities and obligations, Xu Lu still had a splitting headache when he heard her indifferent reaction when she spoke so clearly for the first time.
Is that the only way?Is this just the way this woman is?Never be surprised by changes, always rational and calm to the point of indifference, and always stab a knife coldly in the warm heart of others.In her world, there are only achievements?Achievement?and social status?Can't even get a little bit of extra thoughts off?
He froze there for a short while, but Xu Lu said again without hesitation, "Is there somewhere to play during the winter vacation? I can invite some of your college classmates to come here to play."
Xu Lu suddenly came back to his senses and realized that there was something wrong with what he said.
But Xu Jie stood up from the sofa and walked to the carved spiral staircase. Xu Lu could catch a glimpse of her delicate white nails on the handrail. Will go to Bali to get married, I know you won't go, so find a place to have fun, you are about to graduate."
She just left without looking at Xu Lu's expression at that moment, which was a mixture of astonishment and panic.
She never wanted to have too much interaction with this son, and she didn't want to give birth to her if possible, and even if she gave birth to him, she didn't want to get too close to him.She inherited her mother's beauty and her coolness, but this child inherited her most beautiful eyes, but he didn't have the same heart as before. He cried and cried when he dragged his long nose and stuck to her smart skirt. Unconsciously calling her mother, she could tell that this child was a loving person, worthy of those affectionate eyes.
But she doesn't want this kind of fetters, his essence is just a bargaining chip, how can a gamer allow the bondage of pawns?So she has always used the most rational and ruthless methods to forcibly correct the warmth and affection brought out of his bones, but she failed, he still grew into the appearance she least expected, deeply attached to herself, forever in vain Waiting for his so-called family affection, his lack of love is like a fish dying of thirst.
After Xu Lu was stunned for a long time, he couldn't stand steadily, his body weight probably sank from his heart to the soles of his feet, and he was about to be taken out of a stagger when he took a step.
It feels good to have a nightmare come true, because a sudden accident, compared to the feeling of being immersed in fear all the time, and the heartstrings are tightened by the breeze, it takes a shortened painful cycle.
He almost couldn't control the tears that were about to fall, but he immediately raised his neck fiercely, wishing to bend his neck back, saying that the tears were only shed for the old man, didn't he know the result a long time ago?Is it interesting to shed tears at the end of a TV series whose ending has already been spoiled?
On New Year's Eve, with the sound of firecrackers, new peaches are exchanged for old talismans.Xu Lu stayed alone in the empty room, and if a ghost appeared out of nowhere, he could have a drink and be a drinking buddy.
My aunt had already taken her annual leave, and she came back to work after the [-]th day. The exquisite quick-frozen dumplings in the refrigerator are hand-wrapped and eaten directly. They need to be heated. was starved to death.
He unpacked a bottle of champagne next to the lonely dumpling bowl. There was still hot soup in the dumpling bowl, which could be used as a big stuffed wonton. He is also the No. 1 way to eat wontons with champagne throughout the ages.
He is waiting for the old man to call. The old man has been crazy busy recently. Perhaps, he hasn't sent any messages to his mobile phone since he came home.The dumpling soup was almost cold, and his nose was sour. It was impossible to expect the old man to call and eat this bowl again. He wiped the back of his hand vigorously, and turned on the phone.
The phone rang for a long time before being answered, "Why did you answer it?" Xu Lu said lazily with a nasal voice.
The other end of the phone was quiet for a few seconds, the old man probably found a quiet place, "Well, there's a table full of people eating."
Xu Lu played with the exquisite ivory chopsticks in his hand, "I've been back for a few days, why haven't you contacted me?"
"Because there were some things that needed to be resolved a few years ago, and they are only dealt with now. I hope you can forgive me."
"Can't even send a text message?"
The man seemed a little silent, "I'm really sorry, but I won't be like this from today on."
Xu Lu smiled, and moved to the floor-to-ceiling windows of the restaurant. In the low-rise residential area with sparse floors, the fireworks can be seen from far away. A large piece of gorgeous fireworks exploded in a flash, and then the sound of the explosion came, "Is this my New Year's gift?"
"Can it be part of it?" The man's tenderness can be seen through the screen.
A small kid wearing a furry tiger head hat was dragged by a huge husky from the road behind Xu Lu's restaurant. The silly child let go.
Xu Lu sniffled lightly, pressed his back against the glass, and said with a smile, "Father, I'm the only one at home celebrating the New Year today."
"Where's your mother?" The man's voice was very soft.
"She went to marry someone else, and finally she doesn't want me anymore." Xu Lu said that he was still laughing at the beginning, but his voice could no longer be raised, and he slowly fell to the ground against the glass.
The man didn't make a sound over there, Xu Lu was biting the cuff of his sweater, he thought he could bear it, but in the end he cowardly shed tears, the feeling of being abandoned was so clear that he couldn't escape even if he wanted to.
The man was silent for a while, and then said in sporadic gasps, wait for me. "Xu Lu didn't hear it.
The mobile phone that was nowhere to be placed was thrown directly on the ground. He thought the man had hung up the phone. He waited until his out-of-control emotions slowly recovered, and when he picked it up from the ground, he saw the mobile phone that had been on the phone.
"Hey, why didn't you hang up? It's a shame to cry during the live broadcast."
There was a whistling wind on the other end of the phone, "Where are you? A typhoon is blowing on the roof, why is this sound?"
"I'm on my way to your house, okay?"
Xu Lu stood up from the floor in shock, "Hey, are you crazy? Did your family let you run out in the middle of the night?"
That scholarly family has a lot of rules, the old man couldn't say anything even if he didn't make a phone call a year ago, but now the old man came out on New Year's Eve to disobey?
"He ran out without permission."
"Hey, go back quickly." Xu Lu anxiously wanted to jump here. It is true that his boyfriend is happy to find you, but he is even more unwilling to make trouble for a man.
The man didn't answer, but just told him to check the doors and windows and turn off the natural gas, and he would call when he got to the gate of the community.
When the phone hung up, Xu Lu was still in a daze. He wiped his bald head and laughed out loud under the gorgeous overhead light.
The man's ancestral house is in the scenic spot, with white walls and black tiles, gurgling water, and mottled walls.It took nearly three hours to drive here, Xu Lu listened to him and checked the doors and windows, and closed the main gate when the man came, and then left.
Probably because the road was not blocked on New Year's Eve, or the old man was driving fast, two hours later the old man called him and asked him to wait in the guard room of the community, and he was about to arrive.
The doorman in the community is fairly familiar with him, and asked him why he still went out on New Year's Eve, Xu Lu avoided saying nothing, chatted a few words and the old man's car came over, the old man's car over there hadn't turned around yet, Xu Lu pushed He opened the door of the guard room and ran out.
"Is it really okay to run out like this?" Xu Lu was still worried, he really didn't want to mess with the famous big family.
The old man was busy driving, "I didn't say I wouldn't go back."
Xu Lu realized in his heart that he should be picked up there first, so it would be easier to take care of him.
Xu Lu has never seen an old man driving a car in person. He used to be the taciturn old Uncle Lin. He didn't expect the old man to drive in such a style.
Xu Lu squeezed the seat belt, and couldn't help but sigh, "It's already amazing that you can drive. I didn't expect you to drive so fast."
The man's side face was focused, "I also participated in the team when I was in college, do you believe it?"
"It's exciting, you, does your family agree?"
The man took a moment to glance at him, and smiled softly, "In your eyes, my family is just like...feudal? They will interfere in such things."
"Isn't it? A big family like yours doesn't have strict house rules. You can't smack your lips when eating, smile without showing your teeth, be decent, put on airs every day, let alone run freely on the street." Xu Lu was familiar with it for a while. large skewers.
"You're talking about basic upbringing, right? It has nothing to do with family or not."
Xu Lu raised his brows, "Then I'll keep talking while eating, and I'm always hanging out with hooligans, isn't it uneducated?"
"It's okay when you eat, but you are picky eaters, and you are in a hurry to eat even though no one is robbing you."
Xu Lu leaned back on the chair relaxedly, and stretched out a hand from the cracked window glass, "That's really irreversible, it's been like this since childhood."
"Bring your hand in."
Probably Xu Lu was in the car, the old man restrained his speed, and drove back all the way half a point longer than when he came.
As the car drove all the way into the scenic area, Xu Lu felt a little timid and panicked. When the old man knew the way, he drove the car to a door in Linshui, and honked the horn in front of the newly remodeled door. The door was opened from the inside, and Xu Lu felt that something was wrong.
The author has something to say: Obviously I want to write a sweet and yellow little tail, why~ the more I write, the more I feel wrong-.-
Xu Lu casually dropped the suitcase on the floor, and kept the heavy down jacket in his arms, and put it on the hanger properly.
"Are you back?" Xu Jie flipped through a fashion magazine lazily, his voice was unmoving, his face was stiff, and only when he got close could he see that there was a thin layer of mask on her face.Like the inner skin of an egg.
