Professor Lin's middle-aged love

"I'm going to take a shower." Back in the bedroom, Zhou Mo threw the phone on the bed, took off his coat, found a change of clothes, and went to the bathroom.

Lin Yuxi stood at the door, listening to the sound of rushing water, turned around and sat by the bed to wait for her.

"Why are you still here?" Zhou Mo brushed his hair and came out, surprised to see Lin Yuxi still staying in the bedroom, frowned and asked her: "Didn't you have unfinished work? Do it quickly, don't stay up late."

"It's okay, there's only a little finishing touch, and it's the same tomorrow morning." Lin Yuxi got up and took the towel in her hand, and said warmly, "I'll blow your hair for you."

"No need." Zhou Mo was still thinking about the dispute with his father just now, and subconsciously refused.As soon as the words fell, she realized that her attitude was too cold, passed the hair dryer over, and warned, "Be careful of burning your hands."

Lin Yuxi took a deep look into her eyes. It was the first time that Zhou Mo had such a cold attitude towards her. His eyes paused on her for a few more seconds. He raised the hair dryer high with his right hand, and flicked her hair lightly with his left hand.

Zhou Mo was sitting facing the dressing table, the two of them accidentally looked at each other through the mirror, Zhou Mo frowned and pursed his lips to avoid it.

About 2 minutes later, feeling that the hair under his palm was half dry, Lin Yuxi put away the hair dryer, sat down in front of Zhou Mo, and asked, "Can you tell me what happened?"

"I don't want to say it." It was rare for Zhou Mo to say no to his wife. At the end, he glanced at her from the corner of his eye with some guilt, and saw that Lin Yuxi was also staring at her for a moment, and turned around awkwardly.

"What's the matter? Even I complained?" Lin Yuxi said softly, and deliberately stood in front of Zhou Mo slightly sideways, pouted her lips and teased her, "Why are you avoiding me?"

Zhou Mo was struggling, after all, she had never exposed her violent side to Lin Yuxi, this was the first time.She was a little embarrassed, "You... Do you think I shouldn't talk back to Dad just now?"

Lin Yuxi pursed her lips and thought, "It's a bit too much, after all, Dad is the elder. But..."

Zhou Mo thought that Lin Yuxi would follow her words to comfort her, but she didn't expect that she was really thinking about the scene downstairs just now, and even responded solemnly that it was a bit too much.

Zhou Mo already felt in his heart that his good image was ruined, but now hearing what Lin Yuxi said, his heart seemed to be blocked by a stone, he couldn't get up and down, and he was very depressed.

"I still have a contract to read, don't wait for me, you go to bed first." Rather than saying that Zhou Mo and Lin Yuxi were at odds, it would be better to say that she fled in despair.Standing up and fastening the belt around her waist, Zhou Mo walked over to the bed to get her mobile phone, and Lin Yuxi hugged her from behind.

"What's wrong? Are you really angry with me?" Arms wrapped tightly around Zhou Mo's waist, Lin Yuxi put her lips behind her ears, "I haven't finished speaking yet, don't you want to listen to my heart?" ?”

Zhou Mo stood still, letting Lin Yuxi speak softly to her without showing any expression, but there were already layers of ripples in his heart.

Feeling Zhou Mo's tense shoulders relax, Lin Yuxi raised the corners of her lips slightly, let go of her arms around her waist, raised her feet and walked up to her, holding her hand, and the two walked to the bed.

Lin Yuxi bit her lip and glanced at Zhou Mo, with a smile in her eyes, and pressed her shoulders with both hands to let her sit down.

Zhou Mo didn't know why, as soon as she sat down, Lin Yuxi sat slightly sideways on her lap, wrapping her arms around her neck, very active and intimate.

"what are you doing?"

"I want you to stay with me, so I won't go to work tonight, okay?" Lin Yuxi rarely showed a coquettish gesture, Zhou Mo looked up at her, his throat rolled, a little dry.

"Okay." By coincidence, Zhou Mo lost his principles and was still awkward just now, but Lin Yuxi disarmed and surrendered after acting coquettishly.

Lin Yuxi looked at her pursing her lips and smiling softly, like the evening wind blowing by the lake.

"If you don't know the reason for tonight's matter, you will indeed feel that you did something wrong. But as far as the matter is concerned, you and Dad have different opinions, and there must be good reasons for each. It is true that blindly asking you to compromise will make people feel Uncomfortable." Lin Yuxi didn't know what they were arguing about, but she understood Zhou's father's temper, he said what he said, and liked to control people, but Zhou Mo was not the one who was willing to be controlled.So in this family, when there are disputes, it is mostly the two of them.

"You will explode, and I understand." After kissing Zhou Mo's forehead lightly, Lin Yuxi said in a soft voice: "I think you and Dad need to reflect on themselves. First of all, the tone of your speech should not be so aggressive. Dad You shouldn't use a commanding tone, and of course, you shouldn't speak to him with irony, it sounds a bit unconvinced."

"Do I have it?" Zhou Mo put his hand on Lin Yuxi's waist and pressed it.

"It's a little bit, maybe I'm thinking too much. Of course, it's mainly because Dad's attitude is not very good, you are forced, I understand." Lin Yuxi tried her best to be careful, her waist was a little itchy, she complained She glanced at her, "But you are father and daughter after all, how can there be any overnight feud? I think Mom must have persuaded Dad, so I will persuade you too. If your attitude towards Dad has changed, they will definitely think that I am a wife. You must have made a contribution. Only then will you recognize me more and feel that I am a good daughter-in-law."

"You care so much about your image in your parents' eyes?" Zhou Mo asked her with raised eyebrows.

"Well, I know that Dad didn't seem to agree with us very much at first. So, I still hope that there will be a change in his heart. If I can help you repair the relationship between father and daughter, do you think Dad will recognize me more? What about it?" Lin Yuxi found that Zhou Mo was really thinking along her words, and raised his hand to gently caress her cheek, "I know you have been wronged, and you also have your principles and concerns."

Tilting his head and kissing Lin Yuxi's palm, Zhou Mo explained: "I don't want to quarrel with Dad all the time, but his tone always makes me feel that I am his subordinate." Fingers to unbutton Lin Yuxi's collar, Zhou Mo continued : "But for you, I will pay attention to my tone in the future and try my best to be patient."

An hour later, there was only one dizzy yellow wall lamp on in the bedroom, and the shadow of butterflies was reflected on the wall.On the bed near the floor-to-ceiling windows, there was a small hill arched under the quilt. Zhou Mo poked his head out from inside, took a few breaths, and said, "Ask you something."

"What's the matter?" Lin Yuxi was pressed down by her, with her hands still hanging around her neck, smiling sweetly.

"The night Joyna asked you to meet, did I tell you anything? About feelings." Zhou Mo didn't stop asking, Lin Yuxi was pushed by her, frowned and snorted softly, and patted it painfully She looked at her with a blushing face, and after a while, she asked, "Why do you ask that?"

With a gentle movement, Zhou Mo put one hand on her face, and said, "He Yizhen asked me to ask you, because Joyner has been a little cold towards her recently."

"Mr. He...do you really love Joyna?" Thinking of Joyner's state that night, Lin Yuxi frowned.

"I feel love." Zhou Mo thought for a while and responded to her.

"But..." Lin Yuxi hesitated, she didn't know if she could tell Zhou Mo, because she would definitely tell Mr. He, in case it had any bad influence on Joyna.

"Why? Even I can't say it?" As if seeing Lin Yuxi's hesitation, Zhou Mo pinched her chin with his fingers, trying to persuade her, "We are helping them, so speak with confidence."

After being silent for a while, Lin Yuxi said: "Is Mr. He in love with her ex-wife or Joyna? Joyna felt that Mr. He only provoked her because she looked like the other's ex-wife. She was afraid that she was just a substitute. .”

"Is there such a thing?"

"Ah."

"I'll talk to her later."

***

The winter vacation is coming, Lin Shan moved back to the school dormitory in order to concentrate on preparing for the final exam.On the day I returned to University A, I got up late the next day because I stayed up late to study the night before.Lin Shan packed her schoolbag in a hurry, took a bottle of milk, bit a piece of bread in her mouth and rushed to school in Zhou Mo's car.

Lin Yuxi had no class that day and stayed at home.Pushing open the door of her daughter's bedroom, her eyes widened involuntarily.The bed was messy, there were some bear dolls randomly placed on the floor, and the books on the table were piled up like a mountain.

My daughter is rarely so sloppy, except when preparing for various exams, she is really busy, staying up late is a common thing.

Therefore, Lin Yuxi will not blame her for this kind of thing.When she saw it, she hurriedly cleaned it up.

Lin Yuxi took a new set of sheets from the closet and put on the quilt cover. Lin Yuxi went to the window and opened the half-closed curtains. The bright sunlight streamed in instantly, and the flickering lights and shadows in the room were warm and very cozy. .

Because Lin Shan left in a hurry in the morning, she forgot to lock the drawer.After Lin Yuxi sorted the stack of books on the desk, he saw a pen on the desk, thinking that putting them in a drawer would make them look more orderly.

With the sound of gears sliding, the drawer was pulled open, and there was only one painting inside.Lin Yuxi lowered her eyelashes, and the moment her eyes fell on the painting, her hand holding the pen stopped suddenly.

The woman in the painting, whom she knew all too well, was her sister.

With her eyes fixed on the painting, Lin Yuxi's fingertips trembled slightly, and she took out the painting with trembling hands, her eyebrows tightened unconsciously.

The elder sister in the painting has short shoulder-length hair and a smile on her face, like a spring breeze.It can be seen that the elder sister at that time had light in her eyes.This hairstyle was only worn before my sister got married, before she gave birth to Lin Shan.So this painting... There is no way Lin Shan painted it.

Since it wasn't drawn by my daughter, who would have painted it?How could it be in Lin Shan's drawer?

With a pounding heart, Lin Yuxi was full of thoughts, and the mysteries popped up one after another.

The light and shadow in the air flowed, and the golden light fell on Lin Yuxi's body, but it failed to melt away her frowning.Lin Yuxi stared blankly at the painting in her hand without blinking.When he noticed the two letters in the lower right corner, he froze.

QM

Lin Yuxi didn't think much about Qing's initials, and thought that Q stands for sister. What about M?

She knows that my sister can draw, so this painting is probably drawn by my sister.But after carefully looking at the details of the characters' faces and facial features, I feel that some places are not detailed enough.Compared with my sister's painting skills, it seems to be a little weaker.

"M." Lin Yuxi murmured, trying hard to search for the possible person in her mind, and after trying the first one, it was a match.

Meng Hao?

Lin Yuxi's eyes widened suddenly, her heartbeat seemed to miss a beat, and her fingers subconsciously clenched the painting in her hand.

Did Shanshan meet Meng Hao?Is he going to draw it to her?So the daughter already knew about her life experience?

Countless doubts rushed into his brain like a flood that opened the gate. Lin Yuxi frowned and hugged his head tightly, and his breathing began to tremble.She didn't know what she was afraid of, and she felt panicked.

After a while, Lin Yuxi took a deep breath, lowered her head and put away the painting, turned around and went back to the bedroom to change her clothes before going downstairs.

Qin Xue just said a few words to her aunt and walked out of the kitchen, seeing the neatly dressed Lin Yuxi hurrying around with a handbag, she asked in surprise, "Yuxi, lunch will be ready soon, are you going out? "

Lin Yuxi was stopped by her, her messy steps paused, she turned her head and tried to smile, and responded: "Mom, the school is in a hurry, I have to go there, I won't come back for lunch."

Looking at Lin Yuxi's slightly twisted eyebrows, Qin Xue said: "Then take your time on the road and come back early for dinner after get off work in the afternoon."

"okay."

Lin Yuxi smiled and turned her head. The moment she walked out of the hall, a gust of wind swept by, and the light smile on her lips seemed to be swept away in an instant and disappeared.
