coffee and snooping

"Xiao Mi, what is this?" Mother Chen looked Li Ting up and down.

Afraid that she knew something, Chen Mi quickly stopped her mother's staring eyes: "Friend! His name is Li Ting."

With a backhand shot, Li Ting watched the slender and white hands that had been maintained from playing the piano fall on his arms, his eyes sank, and when he looked up again, he put on a decent smile: "Hello, Auntie."

"Okay, okay, okay." Li Ting is worthy of being a killer of women. He is dressed in a neat suit and has facial features that are favored by God. The man's mature charm is fully displayed. He bought Chen's mother at once, and said happily Three hello.

"You guys are playing, let's go first." Mother Chen's gaze stayed on Li Shuyang's face for a moment, then she pulled Father Chen to walk in the opposite direction with a smile on her face. After walking three steps, she pretended to be angry, " Brat, remember to come back early."

Chen Mi looked helplessly at her explosive acting skills, thinking that she would definitely be questioned by her when she returned home, and was thinking about how to explain to her, when a burst of laughter suddenly came from her ears.

"What are you laughing at? Well, I don't even know how to explain it to my mother..." Chen Mi said with a sad face.

"Explain? Am I not your friend?" Li Ting seemed to be in a good mood as he pushed the shopping cart. He also took a few extra packs of potato chips, which made Xiao Shuyang cheer like a festival.

Chen Mi felt even more helpless in her heart. He felt in a daze that he had been tricked. He hadn't taken Li Ting seriously as a friend. From the beginning to the end, he wanted to stay away from Li Ting. It was best not to meet again, because once he touched him, Chen Mi always felt that a place in her heart was gradually collapsing.

……

"So? You really regard him as a friend?" Lao Jiang came back the next afternoon, and now he is enjoying Chen Mi's air conditioner with peace of mind, holding a bowl of oranges, twisting out a piece and putting it in his mouth , the leisurely dangling legs did not seem to show that he was worried about his friend at all.

At this moment, Chen Mi was very distressed. The pillow that was originally good was scratched into several wrinkles by him. It was all because the situation was developing in an unexpected direction. His original plan was to meet a handsome guy who was seductive, and then chat with him, but it ended. The long-cherished wish of falling in love for many years, and then returned home and continued to shy away.

Lao Jiang sighed, but put down the fruit. He pulled out the pillow that Chen Mi was hugging tightly so that the two of them could look at each other, and said with a serious face, "What about you? What do you think? You want a Have an affair, and continue to be your turtle?"

"I……"

Old Jiang didn't seem to hear him. He stood up and looked around at everything in the bedroom. There was a calendar newly replaced by Chen's mother, green plants bought by Chen's father, and bed sheets that Chen's mother thought were "suitable for boys". Dark blue, in the bookcase are all kinds of books that Chen's father believes will be "beneficial to men in the future", and every part is mixed with Chen Mi's parents' wishes.

"However, things have already happened. Although I have only known Li Ting for more than two years, I know this person. Unless it is really necessary, he will not pester him." Old Jiang Yu said earnestly, It's a bit like a father treating his son, hoping that Chen Mi will be enlightened, "Are you really planning to live in this small place for the rest of your life, and let those who call themselves elders arrange everything for you? Just like Li Ting?"

Forced to go on a blind date, forced to marry, and then divorced, all the while being dismissed by the elders.

"Me, but I just graduated from university, and I can't be financially independent like him, so I ran away from home." Chen Mi lowered her head guiltily, and quickly found an excuse for herself.

Old Jiang was not annoyed, instead he knelt down and looked at Chen Mi's eyelashes fluttering in shame: "Baby, these are not problems, the point is what you think, if you have this idea, I will be the first to support you .”

Old Jiang was persuasive, like a seductive elf, Chen Mi couldn't help but raised his head to meet his eyes, he heard Old Jiang drop the last bomb: "Don't you think, Li Ting, may have fallen in love with him is you?"

Outrageous!

Until sending Lao Jiang downstairs, he still tried to explain that the two had met twice in total, and once he was still in a coma, how could that be possible!

As if his daughter was going to get married the next day, Lao Jiang just looked at Chen Mi's face with great pity, and left a thought-provoking sentence: "Oh, my poor baby, the physical ties are more important than you think. many."

Back upstairs, just as Chen's mother brought out the last dish, he looked at Chen Mi who was alone in doubt and asked, "Where's Xiao Jiang?"

Chen Mi remained silent for a while, and drifted back to her room in a daze.

"Ding-dong-"

【You have the latest part-time job】

Chen Mi opened it and saw that it was Li Shuyang's dialog box:

[Teacher, I'm sorry, my father has something to do this morning and took me back to grandpa's house. Let's have piano lessons again tonight! (?ω<)★]

"..."

At this time, Chen Mi wanted to delete this part-time job, but what Li Ting's eyes revealed was that half of the good things came to fruition, and they usually had nothing to worry about.

Chen Mi has never dealt with this kind of ambiguous feelings. He was afraid that he was worrying too much and would make others laugh. Cut off contact.

【Is the teacher not coming?But Dad is not at home at night, I am afraid of being alone...(??ω??)]

Chen Mi fiddled with the leaves of the green plants in front of the window, and did the most shameful thing in her life: "He doesn't like me, he likes me, he doesn't like me! He likes me..."

"Chen Mi! Do you want to eat or not!" Across the door was Chen's mother's roar, and Chen Mi pushed Lv Zhi away annoyed, agreeing to Li Shuyang on the principle of not embarrassing the child.

Li Shuyang on the other end of the phone shook his feet and took credit for the phone screen: "Dad! The teacher will come tonight! I'm not afraid anymore!"

"Okay, then Dad can rest assured to have a meeting tonight." Li Ting smiled, and gave him the potato chips that he promised to give to the child. Looking at Xiao Shuyang's hamster-like appearance, he completely forgot that he had always followed the principle of "manly man". people.

……

Chen Mi pulled the vegetable leaves and put them down again. This was probably the third time he ate air during this meal. Chen's father pushed Chen's mother invisibly, and asked her what was going on in a low voice, and received a message from Chen's mother asking him to eat well. Just after setting off the bowl and chopsticks after warning eyes, he coughed to break the silence.

"Xiao Mi, if you have any difficulties, tell Dad, although you young people have many things we don't understand..."

"It's okay, but I'm going to someone's house to take piano lessons at night." Chen Mi chewed the green leaves and pretended to relax.

"That young man?" Mother Chen asked.

Chen Mi nodded. He could still recall his mother's curious eyes last night. He explained to her that Li Ting met when he went out to play in college. He is the boss of a listed company. He has a car and a house. He has only been divorced once and adopted a child.

Thinking of Chen's mother's pitiful expression, she sighed bitterly: "Such a good man, I really don't understand why the other girl thinks so and even divorced!"

It seemed that the next second, Mother Chen was going to treat him as her own son, and was going to pick up the phone address book to contact him with a blind date.

Chen Mi didn't dare to reveal Li Ting's identity as Tong at all. He could only try his best to persuade Li Ting that he had no intention of remarrying now, and that he just wanted to live well with the children.

Chen Mi is distressed, why do you have to get married in life?

Knowing that he was still thinking about this question when he was sitting by the piano, Li Shuyang saw that he was absent-minded, and proposed to go to the open-air balcony to watch the scenery together.

"I'm sorry." Chen Mi touched Li Shuyang's small head apologetically.

"It's okay! Teacher, come and sit down!" Li Shuyang led him to sit on the soft plush carpet. The cool summer night breeze eased the restlessness of the city, and the night sky in the suburbs was always twinkling with stars.

Looking around, there are two shelves and a small round table in the corner of the balcony, one is used to hold books and magazines, the upper floor is related to finance and politics, the lower floor is children's picture books that children like, and the other is green plants, crowded with meat With a chubby body, delicate and delicate, it can be seen that the master takes good care of him.

Noticing the two shiny ornaments on the small round table, the light was too dim, Chen Mi could only blink to draw the outline of the things carefully, Li Shuyang was also attracted, he simply ran all the way over, took the things and put them in the palm of his hand to show to the teacher .

Only now did Chen Mi see clearly, one was a grand piano made of crystal, and the other was a coffee cup made of ceramics, which seemed to exude the iced American flavor that the host loved to drink.

"This is something my father likes!" Li Shuyang excitedly poked the keys made of crystal, "At first, my father asked me to play the piano because I was old..."

"what's the topic?"

A voice that should not have appeared suddenly lay in the middle. Li Shuyang stuffed something into Chen Mi's arms, hugged the person behind him happily, and shouted at him: "Dad! You are back!"

Eh?

Didn't you say you weren't here?

Chen Mi felt as if she had been cheated.
