The Xishan villa area has been built for some years. The high-quality landscape resources and quiet environment are suitable for elderly people like the old man of the Bai family to take care of their bodies, so after retiring, the old man has been living here.
Bai Feng stopped the car outside, but he was not in a hurry to get in, the window was wide open, and he smoked a lot of cigarettes one after another.
He seldom had such a fierce addiction to cigarettes, but he didn’t know when it started. He was extremely upset or irritable, so he smoked one after another. A lot of cigarette butts piled up.
This time is no exception.
What Bai Jinxu said not long ago is still echoing in his mind over and over again——
"Grandpa is getting old. Fortunately, the people next to him are quick this time, so he just ducked. What about next time? Besides, he is at this age, how many times can he stand it?"
"It won't always be this lucky."
"Go back and have a look, he has always missed you, and he is still thinking about you not long ago..."
Pressing out the cigarette butt, Bai Fenglin rubbed his face, got out of the car, hesitated for a while before ringing the doorbell.
He hadn't been here for a long time, so long that the housekeeper who had been with his grandfather was a little surprised when he saw him, and after the surprise, he was happy that was visible to the naked eye.
When he was greeted to enter the door, the housekeeper even shook his hands.
"It's good to come back, it's good to be willing to come back."
The butler turned his back and wiped his wet eyes. Bai Fenglin hesitated to speak, but in the end he didn't say anything. He silently watched the butler busy, making tea, and going to wake him up Mr. Bai, who just fell asleep not long ago.
Bai Fenglin stopped him and said, "It's okay, let..."
The word "Grandpa" rolled around in his throat, but he couldn't say it no matter what, so Bai Fenglin just frowned, and changed his words: "Let him have a good rest, I just came to see."
The butler could only sigh.
After all, when Bai Fenglin said that he had nothing to do with the Bai family from now on, he was also there.
Both he and Aunt Lin are considered old people in the Bai family. They watched the two brothers of the Bai family grow up together, so they can only sigh about what happened at that time.
They had no position to accuse anyone, but it didn't prevent them from feeling sorry for Bai Fenglin who was only 20 years old at the time, broke ties with the Bai family, and left the capital.
Bai Fenglin knew what the butler was thinking without guessing, but he didn't want to mention the previous incident, so he asked about Mr. Bai's physical condition.
The butler immediately cheered up and talked to him in detail.
The two were so absorbed in their conversation that no one noticed that someone was coming into the living room. It wasn't until the crutches hit the ground and made a "dongdong" sound that Bai Fenglin closed his mouth and subconsciously turned his head to look.
Although the old man in Tang suit is leaning on crutches, it does not prevent him from straightening his back and being hale and hearty. From his demeanor, one can also get a glimpse of the appearance of a former high-ranking man who was not angry and arrogant.
Bai Fenglin got up immediately, opened his mouth and didn't know what to call, so he walked up to the person and supported Mr. Bai.
"Are you awake?"
Mr. Bai turned his head and glanced at him, and hummed.
Bai Fenglin supported the old man and walked slowly towards the sofa. After the butler brought the blanket, he backed out winkingly, leaving time and space for the grandpa and grandson who hadn't sat together for a long time and talked properly.
Bai Fenglin covered old man Bai's lap with a blanket.
Mr. Bai said, "That kid Jinxu asked you to come?"
Bai Fenglin sat down on the sofa on the other side and nodded.
Mr. Bai stretched out his hand and patted the empty seat beside him, "Come and sit."
Bai Fenglin's gaze stayed on the old man's hand for a while, then he got up and sat down as he said.
The old man in my impression has always been a symbol of power. For him, there is no question of whether he is old or not. Even after many years, when he saw him for the first time just now, Bai Fenglin felt that the old man really had the same meaning as the word "old". missed.
But this wrinkled hand, like dead tree bark, made Bai Fenglin suddenly aware of it.
He is really old.
Before Bai Fenglin could continue to think about it, Mr. Bai said, "Do you think I'm getting old?"
Bai Fenglin was no stranger to his ability to easily read people's hearts. No one had seen the old man's eyes, so Bai Fenglin leaned over, fiddled with the tea set on the coffee table, and hummed.
Grandpa Bai didn't speak, looking at the grandson in front of him whom he both loved and hated, brewed a pot of tea using the method of making tea that he had taught him.
When the fragrance of tea gradually spread, Bai Fenglin handed over the cup of tea in his hand, raised his chin and said, "Have a taste?"
"It's been a long time since I touched it, and some steps were wrong in the middle." When the old man took it, Bai Fenglin quickly said again.
Mr. Bai smiled, "If you still know your mistake, it means you still remember it."
Bai Fenglin was noncommittal.
Mr. Bai took a sip and tasted it carefully. As the slightly bitter tea slipped down his throat, a look of nostalgia gradually surfaced on his face.
When I was young, I focused on my career, and almost never cared about my family. I only wanted to give my family the best material life. Later, when I came back to my senses, my only biological son had been brought up to be an idler without knowing it. waste.
Mr. Bai has been tough for almost half of his life. In the end, his son is not good enough, so he is cruel and directly raises his grandson from generation to generation.
So when Bai Jinxu and Bai Fenglin were young, they were almost raised by Mr. Bai's side.
Mr. Bai learned a lesson from his son, and while educating his two grandsons, he did not forget to give them appropriate kindness.
In the summer, after completing all the homework tasks, the three of them sat in the gazebo. Bai Jinxu followed Mr. Bai to learn how to make tea. Bai Fenglin, who was still young at that time, held his chin in both hands and shook his two hands. With short legs, he sat beside him happily and watched.
After a new pot of tea was released and Mr. Bai tasted it, Bai Jinxu poured a small teacup for Bai Fenglin, who had long been unable to restrain himself. While laughing so hard that I couldn't straighten up.
Bai Fenglin jumped down from the stone bench, and wanted to bite his elder brother with all his teeth and claws. Bai Jinxu simply bent down, passed his hands under his younger brother's armpit, and lifted him up with strength.
His body flew into the air, Bai Fenglin subconsciously wrapped his hands around his brother's neck, closed his eyes, afraid of falling.
Bai Jinxu started to laugh loudly, while old man Bai was beside him, sipping tea slowly, watching the two grandsons play, and laughing along with him from time to time.
The sun went down unknowingly, and the afterglow left a final stroke on everyone, and the memory in Mr. Bai's mind was frozen at that time.
Mr. Bai has been here all these years, and he doesn't think he likes to reminisce about the past, but the grandson in front of him, who left as soon as he said he left, is sitting next to him again after many years. It is hard for Mr. Bai not to miss something.
After a while, Mr. Bai sighed.
Bai Fenglin didn't seem to hear the old man's sigh, and turned to ask him how he was feeling.
The old man said it was all right, it was just a flash, it was nothing, Jinxu was just too worried.
The two chatted for a few more words, and the butler came in at the right time and asked what to prepare for dinner.
Mr. Bai looked at Bai Fenglin who was next to him, and Bai Fenglin said no, he was just about to leave, the company had something to do.
As he said he stood up and wanted to leave, Mr. Bai leaned on a cane and disagreed very much, "No matter how busy you are, you still have to eat."
Bai Fenglin still refused, but was glared back by Mr. Bai.
"Then... let's eat here." After a while, Bai Fenglin said.
Only then did Mr. Bai's expression soften.
After watching the movie, Ji Haoyan suggested to go to dinner, Lu Tao naturally has no meaning, and then both of them looked at He Ran in unison.
He Ran thought to himself that they have come out anyway, so there is nothing wrong with having a meal together.
So Ji Haoyan drove and took He Ran to a restaurant that he and Lu Tao often went to.
Because it was a temporary decision, there was no advance reservation, so there were no private rooms upstairs, and we could only eat in the lobby on the first floor.
He Ran thought it was nothing, and when he sat by the window, he even joked about Ji Haoyan by the way.
"Okay, now you know that you come to this kind of high-end restaurant to eat, and you don't like roadside stalls any more?"
Ji Haoyan rubbed his hands, "You think I don't want to?" He squinted at Lu Tao, who was sitting next to him and flipping through the menu, "Isn't Tao here, or the two of us would have eaten at a roadside stall."
Lu Tao didn't even raise her eyelids, "Thank you, where are you two going to eat at the roadside stall in this weather?"
"That's right." Ji Haoyan rubbed his nose, forgot about this, resentfully took the menu that Lu Tao had finished ticking off, and checked a few more dishes head-to-head with He Ran.
Lu Tao shook her head amusingly at the side, and stopped looking at the two of them head to head, and looked around boredly.
Ji Haoyan asked her if she wanted some more desserts, but Lu Tao was about to answer, when she caught a glimpse of someone out of the corner of her eye, she felt a little familiar, and was about to take a closer look, when Ji Haoyan asked again, she had no choice but to look back and say No need to add more, enough to eat.
The waiter took the menu and left, Ji Haoyan poured tea for a few people, when Lu Tao looked sideways again, the table just now was already empty.
Ji Haoyan put the teacup in front of her, and asked curiously, "What are you looking at? So engrossed?"
Lu Tao let out an "ah" and said uncertainly, "I feel like I saw a star just now."
"What?" Ji Haoyan almost spit out a sip of water, "Hahahahahahaha Tao, you want to laugh at me to death, and become a celebrity?"
"Please," Ji Haoyan lowered his voice, and pointed to He Ran who was wearing a hat opposite, "The big star is sitting opposite you, okay?"
He Ran also looked at Lu Tao, and Lu Tao quickly waved his hands, "No, no, it's incomparable with the male god, I just feel familiar."
"I guess it should be an eighteenth-line star."
Ji Haoyan smiled, "You can have an impression, it shouldn't be the [-]th line, but it should be the [-]th line."
Lu Tao glared at him, "Stop talking nonsense."
Ji Haoyan touched the back of his head, "Hey hey hey hey hey hey."
Smiling like a dick, Lu Tao disliked him very much.
He Ran waited for the two of them to have had enough trouble before asking calmly, "Who is it?"
Bai Feng stopped the car outside, but he was not in a hurry to get in, the window was wide open, and he smoked a lot of cigarettes one after another.
He seldom had such a fierce addiction to cigarettes, but he didn’t know when it started. He was extremely upset or irritable, so he smoked one after another. A lot of cigarette butts piled up.
