Professor Lin's middle-aged love

After Zhou Mo left, Lin Yuxi walked into her daughter's room. Lin Shan had already packed her things and was sitting on the edge of the bed folding her clothes.

The bright sunshine outside the window softly shone in, and golden orange light shone on the daughter's shoulders.

Lin Yuxi's eyes flicked across Lin Shan's body, she blinked her eyelashes, and sighed secretly.

The daughter has grown into a slim girl, and in a few years, I am afraid it will be time to leave her shelter, seek her own happiness, and form her own small family.

There was an obscure light in Lin Yuxi's eyes. While she was happy for her daughter, she also found it difficult to accept the days without her by her side.

Her heart suddenly went blank.

"Mom, what's the matter?" Putting the folded clothes into the closet, Lin Shan turned her head to look at Lin Yuxi's slightly sad eyes, and asked with a frown.

"Huh? It's okay!" Lin Yuxi regained consciousness, tightened her coat, and responded blankly.

"Aunt Zhou Mo is gone?" Knowing that her mother didn't want to say it, Lin Shan obediently didn't continue to ask, and instead asked about the person she happened to meet just now, her eyes filled with anticipation without reservation.

Thanks to her quick response, otherwise it would be bad to embarrass Aunt Zhou Mo.

Lin Shan thought, now that she is a woman, this is the first time in her memory that her mother brought someone home for the night, and the other party was Aunt Zhou Mo, so she was both surprised and happy.

If I had known earlier, she would have come back one day later.

The red lips were drawn into a line, and Lin Shan regretted interrupting her mother's good deeds.

"Shanshan, you saw Aunt Zhou Mo just now, didn't you? Why didn't you say hello?" Lin Yuxi struggled deeply before opening her lips to talk about Zhou Mo with her daughter.

In her eyes, it is very indecent to keep someone overnight without getting married, let alone being bumped into by her daughter?

She felt that she had set a very bad example, even though nothing happened between her and Zhou Mo.

"Aren't I afraid that you will be embarrassed?" There are only their mother and daughter at the moment, Lin Shan has no scruples about speaking, she takes two steps forward and takes Lin Yuxi's hand to sit on the edge of the bed, her eyes seem to be full of thousands Xinghui, flickering, very agile, "Mom, last night you and Aunt Zhou Mo...was it a fire?"

Hearing this, Lin Yuxi's cheeks flushed suddenly, and she patted her daughter's shoulder angrily, "You child...why do you even joke about your mother?"

Her eyes met her daughter's playful eyes, and the two blobs of blush floating on her cheeks deepened again. She lowered her eyes, wishing she could find a hole in the ground to burrow into.

She found that since her daughter was with Ning Caixuan, her personality has become more lively.This is a good thing, so it's not a matter of principle, she is unwilling to reprimand her daughter sharply, she is afraid that her daughter's character will be restrained, like herself, everything is bored in her heart, cold and arrogant, and in the end it is herself who suffers.

"Isn't it? Otherwise, what are you two doing in such a panic? And..." Lin Shan scanned her mother's body as she spoke, causing Lin Yuxi to tug on her coat guiltily, covering the part on her chest. Small lumps are moist/moist.

"And you're disheveled early in the morning, so it's not my fault for thinking too much!" Lin Shan had a touching smile on her lips, which was brighter than the sunlight outside the window. She put her arms around Lin Yuxi's arm and asked: "Mom, are you and Aunt Zhou Mo real?"

"What?" The moment her daughter hugged her, Lin Yuxi straightened her back unnaturally, looking to the side, deliberately avoiding her daughter's prying eyes.

"It's you and Aunt Zhou Mo? Are you dating?" Lin Shan was impatient for a moment, so she asked directly.

Lin Yuxi's mood was surging.

After drooping her eyelashes and thinking for a while, Lin Yuxi raised her head to look at her daughter, the shyness in her eyes receded, and she added a bit of worry, "Shanshan, if mom..." Lin Yuxi paused , took a deep breath, and said solemnly: "If Mom is really with Aunt Zhou Mo, what's your attitude?"

Lin Yuxi knew that her daughter was quite satisfied with Zhou Mo, but she still hoped to hear her daughter's answer with her own ears.

"Of course I support it unconditionally!" As soon as Lin Yuxi's words fell, Lin Shan expressed her position in a hurry, then leaned into Lin Yuxi's arms, and finally waited for this moment.

She suddenly had a sore nose, and her eyes were wet.

"Mom, you haven't found a suitable partner for so many years. It's because Dad has hurt you deeply, right?" Otherwise, why didn't you accept any suitors?Even if it is a blind date, the other party is also female/sexual, must have been heartbroken by a man, right?

Her mother looks like an extremely good-looking and delicate woman, with beautiful features, and a sort of quiet and cool temperament around her, just like a pure white lily, her posture is elegant and intoxicating.

There are many suitors around her mother, Lin Shan thought, Professor Zheng from University A is one of them, but her mother doesn't seem to like her very much.

Otherwise, nothing will happen to Aunt Zhou Mo.

Lin Yuxi didn't know how to answer her daughter's question. She reached out and stroked her daughter's soft hair, and asked, "Shanshan, is there anything you want to know about your father? I think maybe I should tell... ..."

"No, I don't want to know. Since I can remember, he has never appeared in my life. In my heart, he is a dispensable person." Sensing Lin Yuxi's sadness, Lin Shan interrupted she, explained.

If she knew the truth by opening a scar in her mother's heart, she would rather keep it a secret forever.

In Lin Shan's heart, she has already decided that her father failed her mother.

The room was as quiet as a pool of water, and the long fragrance of white orchids lingered on the tip of the nose.Lin Yuxi narrowed her eyes and looked at her daughter who was snuggling in her arms, and said softly: "Mom is going to attend a seminar in another city tomorrow, can you stay at home by yourself?"

"Tomorrow?" Lin Shan sat up straight and asked, "How many days are you going?"

"It will take about three days!"

"So long?" Lin Shan muttered, she looked up at Lin Yuxi's expression, and sighed.

Mom must have forgotten her own birthday again.

Lin Shan was a little depressed. She was planning to surprise her mother on her birthday, and she asked Aunt Zhou Mo to join her.

It's all over now.

Seeing her daughter's disappointed expression, Lin Yuxi thought that her daughter was unhappy because she couldn't be with her, so she put her arms around her shoulders and comforted her: "Don't be sad, it's only three days. Come back, okay?"

Lin Shanwu Yingying's eyes rolled, but she didn't express her worries. She had other plans.

Maybe my mother noticed something strange, she stretched her arms around Lin Yuxi's waist, raised her head and said coquettishly, "That's what you said, you must come back as soon as possible."

Lin Yuxi smiled dotingly at her daughter, and responded with a prolonged voice: "Got it..."

***

Early the next morning, Lin Yuxi packed her luggage and went out to the airport.

On the way, she thought about it, and felt that out of respect, she should tell Zhou Mo.

After all, their relationship is different now.

When Zhou Mo's phone was dialed, the beeping sound rang for a long time, and she didn't hang up the phone until the voice reminded her that there was no answer for the time being.

Normally at this time, Zhou Mo should have a morning meeting at the company.

Lin Yuxi shook her head, the corners of her mouth raised slightly, bathed in the warm breeze, with a bit of sweetness.

She actually forgot about it.

She didn't know how long Zhou Mo would be driving, she might have already boarded the plane when the other party called back, so she left Zhou Mo a message on WeChat.

It took Lin Yuxi nearly 10 minutes to drive from home to the airport. When she arrived, Professor Zheng Yihong was already waiting at the airport.

The other party was sitting on the bench, and the moment he turned his head to see her, his eyes were filled with joy.

Lin Yuxi lowered her eyes slightly, deliberately not looking at her secretly delighted expression, dragged the suitcase and walked two steps forward, and found an empty seat to sit down.

Seeing that she didn't intend to talk to her, Zheng Yihong's face froze, she just licked her face and took the initiative to find her, and stood in front of Lin Yuxi, she twitched her mouth and said, "Yuxi, come here gone?"

Lin Yuxi raised her eyes and glanced at her coldly, then hummed lightly with no expression on her face, which was regarded as a response.

The scene was awkward for a while.

The announcement that the flight they were on was starting to board was broadcast on the radio. Lin Yuxi put her mobile phone in her bag, got up and pulled the suitcase lever to walk to the boarding gate.

Their tickets were booked by the school, and the two of them were sent to participate in the seminar in other places this time, so the seats were naturally arranged together.

Finding her own seat, Lin Yuxi bent down and lifted the small suitcase to put it into the storage compartment above her head, but was caught by a hand that suddenly stretched out halfway.

Lin Yuxi looked sideways slightly, and looked at Zheng Yihong.

"Let me help you!" The other party always had a decent smile on his face.

Lin Yuxi said coldly: "No, thank you!"

Lin Yuxi's seat was by the window. She tilted her head and looked at the blue sky outside the window. Where the sun was visible, there was a soft halo, but the back that could not be seen exuded a sense of alienation and indifference.

Zheng Yihong frowned and looked at Lin Yuxi's straight back, her heart ached, she had been rejected for countless times, she should have gotten used to it long ago, shouldn't she?

But she just couldn't be reconciled. Why did she suddenly change her temperament and start to distance herself from her best friend?

She couldn't figure it out.

Zheng Yihong pursed her lips, and when she was struggling to speak, the purse in the other party's arms vibrated, it should be a WeChat message.

Hearing the sound, Lin Yuxi finally turned around, lowered her head and took out her phone to check the news.

Zheng Yihong kept her eyes firmly locked on Lin Yuxi's body. She watched the corners of Lin Yuxi's lips rippling into a bewitching smile when she saw the content on the screen, like a water lily blooming after rain.

She knew that Lin Yuxi had a good smile, but the other party hadn't shown this expression to her for many years.

She should have felt happy, but it was obvious that Lin Yuxi's smile was not for herself.

Her heart felt like it had been pricked by a needle.

She raised her eyes slightly, and when she looked at the smile on Lin Yuxi's lips, she felt extremely glaring.

Out of curiosity and jealousy, Zheng Yihong squinted at Lin Yuxi's cell phone, and wrote down the name: Zhou Mo.

She couldn't guess whether the other party was a man or a woman, but the only thing she was sure of was that the other party had a very close relationship with Lin Yuxi.

Zheng Yihong clenched her teeth, feeling a faint fire in her heart.

***

The meeting went on for two consecutive days. On the afternoon of the second day, Lin Yuxi and Zheng Yihong received a WeChat message from a college classmate at the same time. The other party learned that they had come to Fanchuan City, and insisted on doing their best to be the landlord, so they made a special reservation at the local hotel. A banquet was held, and two other classmates who were working in Fanchuan City were called together, and a few old classmates were prepared to gather together that night.

In fact, Lin Yuxi was not very familiar with them. Compared with them, Zheng Yihong was closer to them.

During the whole university period, Lin Yuxi spent almost all her time in the library, and a sister who is very close to her is not in this circle now.

Naturally, there are few contacts with them.

But since the other party invited her to join him, she naturally couldn't refuse him face.

The banquet lasted for nearly two hours. During the period, everyone drank a lot. Lin Yuxi was forced by them to drink three glasses of red wine.

She didn't want to drink so much at first, but seeing Zheng Yihong said that she wanted to take care of herself, she frowned, snatched the wine glass in displeasure, raised her head and drank the rest of the red wine in one gulp.

Everyone at the table was amazed by his heroic and capable energy.

After all, in my impression, Lin Yuxi is a taciturn, cold-tempered but elegant woman, and she rarely shows this "heroic".

Today was the first time they met, so they couldn't help but look at her with admiration.

The red wine has a lot of stamina, and Lin Yuxi is a person who can't handle alcohol. She can barely maintain a sober and calm state on the wine table. When she takes a taxi back to the hotel, she feels like she is stepping on cotton. Void.

But even so, she still avoided Zheng Yihong's support, and walked alone in the dimly lit corridor.

Lin Yuxi and Zheng Yihong lived in the opposite door. Lin Yuxi stood at the door of her room, swiped her card to open the door, and when she was about to walk in, her shoulder was suddenly pressed against the wall by Zheng Yihong.

Lin Yuxi's body shook violently, her head ached, and her brows were frowned in displeasure.

"Let me go!" Lin Yuxi said in a bone-chilling voice after seeing the person who was close to Chi Chi.

"Don't let go!" With the help of Jiu Jin, Zheng Yihong finally dared to ask Lin Yuxi the question she suppressed in her heart, "Yuxi, why? We used to be best friends..."

Even though her eyes were full of drunkenness, Lin Yuxi's icy aura remained unabated. Her voice was a little hoarse, but she was still firm and irresistible, "Zheng Yihong, don't make me hate you. I'll say it one last time, let go!"

Lin Yuxi was not prepared to answer her questions at all.

As if frozen by the coolness in her eyes, Zheng Yihong was stunned for a while, then let go of her hand in a daze, turned around and walked out of the room dejectedly.

Under the light, her powerless figure looked extraordinarily lonely.

Lin Yuxi looked up at her, and closed the door without hesitation.

In an instant, the room was completely dark. With the leisurely moonlight outside the window, she staggered to the side of the bed, tilted her body, and threw herself onto the bed.

"Hmm..." Because of that movement just now, the head looks like it's about to explode, and it hurts suddenly.

She lay on her side, curled up with her knees bent, and her thoughts flew back to her college days.

At that time, she and Zheng Yihong were indeed very good friends, but it was also because of Zheng Yihong's meticulousness and understanding that she was moved. Before that, her withdrawn and introverted personality made it difficult for her to accept the approach of strangers all at once.

She is very slow to warm up, and also very resistant to new environments.

Therefore, she began to slowly recognize Zheng Yihong as her friend in the first semester of her freshman year, but what she didn't expect was that Zheng Yihong was the one who hurt her the most in the end.

She has always had the habit of studying in the self-study room after class. Their self-study room at that time was different from the current university. It was a small classroom that could seat 30 to [-] people.But even so, the study room is not full every night.

Lin Yuxi is always the last one to leave after learning, and because of this, there was an incident of financial loss in the class.

Without monitoring to prove her innocence, she became the primary object of suspicion.Coupled with her already poor family conditions, she needs to rely on school funding to make ends meet, she can't argue with it.

In this way, she spent two years on the charge of "thief".It wasn't until the second semester of her junior year that she overheard Zheng Yihong's conversation with her girlfriend:

"Why did you steal that little sachet? If you like it, I can buy it for you."

"Do you know how expensive that sachet is? It's made of golden silk."

"But you hurt Lin Yuxi like this..."

"Are you going to expose me?"

Their conversation came to an abrupt end, and Lin Yuxi did not hear Zheng Yihong's response again, although she was looking forward to the other party's ability to prove her innocence, she had been waiting for that day.

But no.

The classmates' avoidance of her became a thorn in her heart, and this thorn was planted by Zheng Yihong.

For his girlfriend, Zheng Yihong chose to sacrifice her friend.

That being the case, she has nothing to regret.

Just think of yourself as a sincere mistake.

She really shouldn't trust anyone easily.

The cool night wind blew the curtains and swayed slightly, Lin Yuxi hugged herself with both hands, and pursed her lips tightly.

She will never tell Zheng Yihong what she knows the truth, because that person has lost her trust.

Although Zheng Yihong might really have some affection for her now, she no longer needs it.

She is such a cold person, once you hurt her once, you will never get close to her again in your life.

She would not give them a second chance to hurt herself.

For so many years, many people around her who don't know Lin Yuxi have hinted in their words that she is indifferent and difficult to get along with, and she is too defensive.

But no one knew how she endured the pain and covered herself with layers of hard shells after being injured again and again until she was unbreakable.

The heavy protective shell is like a shackle, which prevents outsiders from approaching, so why is it not a bondage to oneself?

Lin Yuxi raised her hand and rubbed her temples, and noticed the glaring light of the phone that fell on the ground.

She moved her body and slid off the bed little by little, and fell onto the carpet.

She reached for the phone.

It was Zhou Mo who sent her a voice message.

The fingertips touched the screen lightly, and the other party's voice, as delicate as sweet spring water, resounded leisurely in the empty room.

Zhou Mo: [Have you arrived at the hotel yet?Pay attention to safety on the road, and remember to tell me when you arrive, I am worried about you. 】

Xu Shi's forbearing emotions have been suppressed in her heart for too long, and she was in an unusually low mood tonight, Zhou Mo's voice was like a trace of comfort when she was lonely, a good medicine, making her attached and missed.

Crazy miss.

No longer willing to suppress herself, Lin Yuxi is fed up with such a depressed life now.

She seems to be fighting with her inner self every day.

I really want to live a good life unscrupulously for a person who treats me sincerely.

Once is fine.

Lin Yuxi raised her hand against her head that was about to split open, and dialed Zhou Mo's phone. After a beep, she was connected, and then Zhou Mo's concerned voice came into her ears.

It's a familiar voice.

Lin Yuxi's eyes became hot, and she called out aggrieved and softly, "Zhou Mo~"

At that time, Zhou Mo was dragging her suitcase and had just stepped into the hotel where Lin Yuxi was staying. The other party's voice was unusually warm, soft and gentle, like a spring breeze blowing across her cheeks, filling her throbbing heart.

She wished she could rush to Lin Yuxi immediately.

The author has something to say: Sorry for the late update.Because there was no update yesterday, so today this chapter is a little more updated.I wrote about Professor Lin's inner activities, and felt that I was going to be depressed, as if my nerves were going to collapse in the next second, but fortunately, someone came to save her.

I just changed a small plot again, because I saw a comment in the comment area saying that it is a commonly used stalk.I am very grateful to this reader. In fact, when I was writing, I also felt that the previous stalk was very vulgar and rotten. .In order to make up for the mistakes in time, I have made revisions here, and I feel that the contradiction between Professor Lin and Zheng is better than before.Thank you for the cuties in the comment area. With you, I feel like I'm making progress all the time.Thank you!

Yesterday, I checked the lottery winning situation in the backstage. There were more than a dozen readers who won less than 10 Jinjiang coins. I feel that this kind of random distribution is too unfair. The gap is a bit big. I am really sorry. I don’t know what it is. Condition.In order to make up for my mistakes, at the end of the chapter, the randomly set chapter review lottery quota was increased from 5000 points to 10000 points. The number of winners was still 100, and each person was allocated an average of 100 Jinjiang coins.Thank you all for your support, thank you!

By the way, I have modified some of Zhou Mo's behaviors in chapters 4/5/6/7/10 since the early morning today, and it looks much better, at least his personality is consistent.I really want to thank the little cuties in the comment area for their comments and suggestions, thank you!
