secret galaxy

Chapter 48

After a three-day business trip, Liang Qian returned to Yuzhou in a hurry.

The door opened, revealing a longing face.

He suddenly became stupid and said without thinking: "Hi."

Duan Xinghe pursed his lips and smiled, his long and narrow eyes were bent into crescent moons, and there was an imperceptible joy hidden inside: "You are back."

"Where's your mother?"

"In the kitchen," Duan Xinghe turned sideways, ready to let Liang Qian in, but just moved a little, Liang Qian suddenly put his arms around his waist, pulled him in front of him, bowed his head and kissed him.

Duan Xinghe was stunned, let him hold him in a daze, his body was as stiff as a stone, only his lips and tongue were soft, he entangled with the other party according to his instinct.

Ten meters away, Sun Juan was cooking, and the sizzling sound of the frying pan could be heard clearly. Just by turning her head slightly, she could see a couple kissing at the door.This sense of crisis that can be discovered at any time creates an excellent sensory stimulation. Liang Qian's blood boils and his heart beats violently. Duan Xinghe is also intoxicated by it. His eyes are half-opened, and his slightly raised neck is like a piece of warm jade.

The sound of the range hood stopped, and the two hurriedly separated, each wiping their lips with their sleeves.After a burst of quick and swift footsteps, Sun Juan walked to the entrance with a spatula in her hand, and said with a smile, "Xiao Liang is here! I heard movement at the door, hurry up, come in and sit down!"

"Hello, Auntie." Liang Qian handed the grouper to Sun Juan, "You can steam this."

Sun Juan waved her hand and refused to take the bag: "Oh, you just need to come over, why buy these again, what a waste of money."

"Then I can't eat and drink for nothing."

After pushing and pulling between the two, Sun Juan finally accepted the gift, ordered Duan Xinghe to entertain Liang Qian, and went back to the kitchen to continue cooking.

As soon as Liang Qian sat down, he heard noises from the bathroom. After a while, Duan Xiaoyou opened the door and came out, wearing a bright yellow dress that was slim and showing a slim curve. Walking is natural and calm, vaguely revealing the dancer's temperament.

What a bright color, Liang Qian thought to himself, Yao Xuyun probably picked it for her.

"Brother Liang Qian." Duan Xiaoyou nodded and greeted softly.

"Xiaoyou is here too," Liang Qian greeted with a smile, "Didn't my sister follow?"

Duan Xiaoyou froze for a moment, then shook his head, frowning vaguely.She sat on the sofa opposite, fiddled with her phone absently, like a delicate and sad Barbie doll, and occasionally let out a low, restless sigh.Liang Qian felt weird, and asked Duan Xinghe "what's the matter" with his eyes, Duan Xinghe looked over innocently and confused, expressing that he didn't know.

Liang Qian raised his eyebrows, thinking that's fine. Anyway, if Duan Xiaoyou didn't take the initiative to speak up, it would be futile for them to ask any questions. With this skill, it's better to talk privately.

"Did the business trip go well this time?" Duan Xinghe had a tacit understanding with him, leaned his shoulders, and when he spoke, his warm breath made Liang Qian a little emotional.

"It's okay, but I encountered a strange thing."

Liang Qian's expression was mysterious, and he hooked his fingers in a serious manner, beckoning Duan Xinghe to come closer, as if what he was going to talk about was something world-renowned.Duan Xinghe was confused, inexplicably followed nervously, and asked in a low voice: "What's wrong?"

Liang Qian cleared his throat, and gestured as he spoke: "I was staying in a hotel, and when I woke up in the middle of the night, I saw a female ghost sitting by the bed, her hair—so long."

Kindly treating him like a donkey, Duan Xinghe resentfully moved to the side, not wanting to be next to him: "Why didn't you take your life!"

"You're so cruel," Liang Qian grabbed Duan Xinghe's hand, interlocked his fingers, and shook it with a smile, "I came to see you by narrow escape."

Duan Xiaoyou on the opposite side raised his head, glanced at them, pouted slightly, and buried his head in playing with his phone again.

In the kitchen, Sun Juan turned off the range hood, leaned out half of her body, and was about to ask the children to eat. Seeing the scene in the living room, she suddenly stumbled when she came to her mouth.

She paused, took a breath, and shouted loudly: "It's time to eat!"

That night, the atmosphere at the dinner table was a little weird.

The first is Duan Xiaoyou, who is full of preoccupations and looks gloomy. He just picks up a plate of vegetables in front of him and chews, his eyelids are always drooping, and he doesn't care about anyone.Then there is Sun Juan, who loves her daughter the most. The first few times when Duan Xiaoyou came home, she was extremely excited. To add to the fun, today he is not in the mood, and only occasionally urges everyone to add food, as if reluctantly fulfilling the responsibility of the host.

Liang Qian didn't know what to do, so he could only watch his nose, his nose and his heart, and did his duty as an outsider.

There was a dish of fried fish on the dining table, which was Sun Juan's specialty. Liang Qian took a piece, carefully picked out all the small thorns, and was about to feed Duan Xinghe when he suddenly felt something was wrong.Raising his head, he met Sun Juan's gaze.

In the blink of an eye, he temporarily changed course, put the fish into Sun Juan's bowl, and then showed a sunny and sincere smile: "Auntie, you have worked hard."

"Hey, why are you working so hard, you should eat more."

There was silence again at the dinner table.

Duan Xiaoyou was the first to finish eating, and went to the kitchen with the bowls and chopsticks. Sun Juan hurriedly said, "Xiaoyou, put it down, and I will wash it."

So Duan Xiaoyou put it down, sat back on the sofa before, staring at the lights outside the window in a daze.

Duan Xinghe suddenly said: "Next Saturday, please come over with uncle and aunt."

Liang Qian turned to look at him, sure he was talking to himself, his heart skipped a beat, and he didn't know how to answer.

Duan Xinghe remained calm as usual: "My mother said, you have helped our family so much, I would like to invite uncles, aunts, and sister Taozi to have a meal at home to express my gratitude."

"Yes, Xiao Liang, tell your parents to come and sit at home." Sun Juan took over the conversation, responding a little slowly, with a trance smile.

Liang Qian agreed and said some polite words.

After a while, Sun Juan pushed aside the chair and stood up, going to the kitchen to wash the pots and dishes, Duan Xinghe said: "You rest, I'll come."

Liang Qian also volunteered: "Auntie, please sit down, we will clean up."

After closing the glass door, the two squeezed into the not-so-spacious space, equally embarrassed and helpless, but not in a panic.

Liang Qian turned on the faucet, rinsed off the grease on the plate, then dipped in dish soap, and wiped it slowly and circularly.

"Does your mother know?"

Duan Xinghe was also thinking, and he paused for a while before answering: "It's possible."

Their guesses were quickly confirmed.

Sun Juan broke into the kitchen with a pair of leather shoes, and said to Duan Xinghe, "I'll take your shoes to wash."

She didn't have the so-called "respect for privacy", so she entered her son's bedroom whenever she wanted, and tidied up the room by the way.

Liang Qian looked at the familiar pair of leather shoes and had a bad feeling. Sure enough, Sun Juan said again: "Why is this size wrong? Don't you usually wear 41?"

Every time Duan Xinghe is faced with a major event, he is calm, and after a short hesitation, he explains: "This pair, I accidentally bought a big one."

The two armies confronted each other, and Sun Juan was temporarily defeated, so she turned and went to the balcony.Liang Qian breathed a sigh of relief, and patted Duan Xinghe's shoulder comfortingly.

Judging from this confrontation, Sun Juan is still testing them and has not come to a definite conclusion, but it is only a matter of time. Once the clue is discovered, nothing can be hidden from a keen mother.

Liang Qian asked in a low voice, "Is it your intention to invite my parents to dinner on Saturday, or auntie's intention?"

Duan Xinghe said: "Her."

In fact, from the first time they met, Sun Juan wanted to associate with Liang Qian. In the past few years, Duan Xiaoyou's case has always caused her to toss and turn, and she was in great pain. When she heard that Liang Qian's mother was a judge, she thought that she must I know a lot of people who are public prosecutors.Thinking further, if Yao Nandong entrusted someone to put pressure on the grassroots criminal police, would the case be solved?Those policemen must think that the case is small and their family has no power and power, so they don't take it seriously.

Sun Juan didn't tell anyone about these calculations, but Duan Xinghe knew it clearly.She arranged the dinner for next week, and originally wanted to ask Yao Nandong for help, but today, for some reason, she suddenly realized that the relationship between Liang Qian and Duan Xinghe was not simple, so she was restless and confused.

Liang Qian was silent for a while, gritted his teeth and said, "Why don't you confess next week, while everyone is here."

Anyway, if you can hide from the first day of junior high school, but you can't hide from the fifteenth day, you will always be exposed.

Duan Xinghe turned off the tap and said "OK".

"Are you afraid?" Liang Qian couldn't predict the consequences of this decision, good or bad. Based on his understanding of Sun Juan, he estimated that he would cry a lot.It doesn't matter if he is thick-skinned, he is just worried that Duan Xinghe will be wronged.After all, every stabbing between relatives was deep and ruthless, without mercy.

"It's okay." Duan Xinghe looked calm and stood steadily.He is like a willow branch in spring, it looks slender, but it has tenacity, and it cannot be broken by just a gust of wind.Liang Qian got the guarantee, relaxed a little, and said: "Then stay on hold for the next few days."

"Ah."

"Tell me immediately if there is anything, don't force yourself."

This kind of words, he has to tell him once in a while, for fear that Duan Xinghe will bear all the pain in silence again.

Duan Xinghe didn't respond clearly, his eyes flickered here and there, Liang Qian kicked his calf lightly, uselessly, and threatened: "Did you hear that?"

"Yeah." A single word, which sounds strangely reluctant.

After helping Duan Xinghe clean up the kitchen, Liang Qian didn't stay any longer and took the initiative to leave.It just so happened that Duan Xiaoyou was leaving too, so he took on the role of escort.

"Don't trouble others, you can sleep here too," Sun Juan muttered softly, wanting to keep Duan Xiaoyou, but her tone didn't dare to be too harsh.

Duan Xiaoyou explained: "There are only two bedrooms."

"Then I'll sleep on the sofa, or build another bed in the study." Sun Juan asked Liang Qian eagerly for help, "Xiao Liang, can I build a bed?"

"Of course," Liang Qian said hastily, "Auntie, you can do whatever you want."

Duan Xiaoyou hesitated for a few seconds, then shook his head.Sun Juan couldn't hide her disappointment, her dry and pale lips squirmed, and she hesitated to speak.Liang Qian solemnly promised: "Auntie, don't worry, I will definitely hand over Xiaoyou to Auntie before leaving."

"Then, thank you." Sun Juan's expression was unnatural.Her attitude towards Liang Qian is very contradictory, it seems that she is not as affectionate as before, but she is still courteous because she needs others.

"You're welcome," Liang Qian smiled, glanced at Duan Xinghe, and paused gently.

The night in Yuzhou is quite lively, with heavy traffic and bright lights. Looking out through the car window is like a weird movie with filters added.Inside the carriage is another scene, quiet, silent, warm, with a light scent of perfume floating in the air.

At the intersection, Liang Qian stepped on the brake and other signal lights, and habitually glanced at the co-pilot.

Duan Xiaoyou lowered her eyes docilely, her pale fingers tugged at the seat belt on her chest, and her nails scraped unconsciously on it.

Liang Qian cleared his throat and asked, "Listen to music?"

Duan Xiaoyou glanced at him and shook his head.

After passing two traffic lights, she suddenly said, "Sister Taozi may not come home tonight."

"Not going home?" Liang Qian was taken aback, and quickly frowned, "Why didn't you say it earlier?"

"What did she do?"

Duan Xiaoyou said sullenly: "A date."

"Yo, really?" Liang Qian was a little surprised.

"Don't you care?" Duan Xiaoyou's eyes were full of begging, looking pitiful, full of resentment.

Liang Qian laughed: "I can't control her."

However, in order to ensure Duan Xiaoyou's safety and to make sure that she would not spend the night alone, Liang Qian still called Yao Xuyun and turned on the speakerphone by the way.

"I sent Xiaoyou here, where are you?"

The voice on the other end was lazy and very comfortable: "It's home."

"Isn't it a date, with whom?"

"It's over," Yao Xuyun yawned, "Fu Xucheng, remember?"

"He." Liang Qian had the impression that it was Yao Xuyun's first love and a high school classmate with good grades and a handsome appearance.Back then, they always took him with them on dates, and Fu Xucheng even bought Transformers and ice cream for Liang Qian.

"What's the matter, is the broken mirror reunited?"

Yao Xuyun snorted softly, meaning unclear: "Let's talk about it."

Liang Qian joked a few words, and from the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Duan Xiaoyou scratching his nails anxiously, and exaggerated deliberately: "Xiaoyou is still worried that you don't want her anymore."

Duan Xiaoyou really stopped, biting his lips with his white teeth.

Yao Xuyun laughed again, and said softly but firmly, "No."
