Early the next morning, Lin Ran went out of the room to have breakfast at the usual class time like a normal person.Not only ate fried dough sticks, but also drank two bowls of porridge.Even after eating, I took the initiative to sit beside my mother and chat with her for a while.

Aunt Zhong went to clean up the dishes, Lin Ran stood up and poured Li Meijin a cup of her favorite green tea.

Li Meijin looked at her son who had returned to his previous appearance, and she was about to shed tears. She took a sip of the tea and said thank you.

"Mom", Lin Ran leaned her head on her mother's shoulder as she did when she was a child, and suddenly asked, "Why do you think a person likes another person?"

Li Meijin first sighed, and then replied: "I don't know where the love started, and it goes deeper and deeper."

Li Meijin studied ancient literature, and would tell Lin Ran many stories when he was a child. Lin Ran knew that this was a line from the play "The Peony Pavilion".This is a romantic story in which love can make people go from life to death and back to life again.

What his mother said made Lin Ran thoughtful, and he asked again: "Mom, is it because I like boys that you are particularly angry?"

"It's not angry," Li Meijin looked at him seriously, her eyes were full of pity and distress from a mother, "I'm worried about you, mothers always hope that their children will be fine in the future and everything will go smoothly of."

"Mom", Lin Ran put his arms around her shoulders and hugged her. He felt that she must have not slept well these days because of his own affairs, and looked haggard, and then asked cautiously: "Mom, Did you already know about my dad?"

"..."

Although Li Meijin didn't speak, the painful look in his eyes already explained everything. Lin Ran asked softly again: "Then do you hate my dad very much? Mom, if I were you, I would have divorced him long ago—"

"Xiaoran," Li Meijin stopped him from continuing, and said, "Xiaoran, you are the most important thing in my life now, I just want you not to be hurt a little bit, and I don't mind anything else. -"

"Mom..." At first, Lin Ran wanted to continue, but he couldn't continue because of sobs.

Because even if mother and child are connected, he has no way to personally experience the pain his mother has suffered in these years. She not only has to face the fact that her husband cheated, but also has to pretend that nothing has happened on the surface and maintain the illusion of a beautiful family. Thinking about it, she is not human. Thinking of these days, Lin Ran's love for her mother increased a little.

Li Meijin reached out and touched his son's cheek, and found that he has lost a lot of weight recently.She blamed herself in her heart, she met her son every day, and she is also the kind of mother who thinks she is very responsible, but at this moment she also had to admit her failure, because she couldn't figure out what was going on in her son's heart at the moment something.

Before he knew it, Lin Ran seemed to have grown up in an instant, and he was no longer so dependent on her in a blink of an eye. He had someone he liked, and this person was still a boy... Thinking of this, Li Meijin's heart ached. The heart tightened uncontrollably and felt uncomfortable.

Li Meijin asked again in an almost desperate tone: "Xiaoran, how much do you like that boy? Do you like it so much that you don't even listen to what your parents say? Is it really impossible to change?"

Lin Ran's expression changed obviously when he heard this sentence, and he gradually let go of his mother's hand, it was obvious that he didn't really want to continue this topic.

After a long silence, Lin Ran changed the topic a bit bluntly: "Mom, can I order something for lunch today?"

Li Meijin nodded: "Of course, what do you want to eat?"

"Can sweet and sour pork ribs be okay? I really want to eat this today. I also want to drink your sweet-scented osmanthus liqueur, is that okay?"

"Okay." Lin Ran didn't care about eating these few days, and her body, which was not fat, looked even weaker. Today, she finally got an appetite, and Li Meijin even went out to buy vegetables in person.

At 05:30 p.m., after school time, Chen Han came as expected, but this time Huang Xinzhi did not come.

Lin Ran sat in the living room with a book in his hand, and seemed to have been waiting for him for a long time. As soon as Chen Han appeared, Lin Ran immediately took him to the study to talk.

Lin Ran purposely found a dead spot for monitoring, and asked Chen Han about Lu Mingting's injuries. When he learned that Lu Mingting was awake, but his left hand was broken, he immediately worried whether his career as an athlete would be affected.

Lin Ran asked him if he was taken care of in the hospital now?

Chen Han tried hard to recall: "He has a middle-aged man who takes care of him, and he seems to be doing his best."

Lin Ran immediately realized that the person might be the cheap father who suddenly appeared next to Lu Mingting recently, and he was worried for no reason.

Thinking of this, Lin Ran touched the Jade Guanyin that Lu Mingting gave him during the sports meeting on his neck, and asked Chen Han to return it to Lu Mingting, and Chen Han took it away.

"Chen Han," Lin Ran looked into his eyes solemnly and said, "Chen Han, do you think we are friends?"

Chen Han replied without thinking: "Of course, how can you ask such a question?"

Lin Ran noticed that a trace of displeasure flashed across Chen Han's face.

Lin Ran continued: "I also think so. What I entrusted to you today is a very, very important thing. To tell you the truth, it may be the most important thing in my 17 years of life."

"Hmm," Lin Ran's deep and solemn expression made Chen Han a little nervous, and he asked in a low voice, "What's the matter?"

"My dad knows some people in the Public Security Bureau. Now I guess my mobile phone and that of Lu Mingting have been monitored, so I can only ask someone to bring a message. It really depends on you." Lin Ran emphasized again .

"Okay. Don't worry." Chen Han promised.

"I think..." Lin Ran whispered into Chen Han's ear, afraid that he would forget, and emphasized the important details twice.

After finishing speaking, Lin Ran saw that Chen Han's eyes were full of surprise or shock, and even strictly speaking, there was a hint of disappointment.

It's right to think about it, Lin Ran thought, for such a self, everyone will be disappointed, right?Sometimes he was disappointed in himself.He didn't quite understand how it could become like this now.

When Chen Han seemed to have something to say, the two heard footsteps outside, and Lin Ran immediately led Chen Han away from the study.

The moment Lin Weiguo entered the door, he saw Lin Ran stuffing a book into Chen Han's hand. There was nothing strange about the act of borrowing a book, but the strange thing was that both of them looked damn panicked.It is no exaggeration to say that the expressions of the two are like mice panicked because they saw a cat.

Lin Weiguo instinctively felt that something was wrong, so he naturally grabbed the book and checked it.

This is a very ordinary-looking travel book. The title of "Lonely Planet" is very literary. The only special thing is that the title page of the book is signed with a big "Lu"...

However, the moment Lin Weiguo picked up the book, Lin Ran, who had always been well-educated and polite, suddenly lost his composure.He cried, "Lin Weiguo, what are you doing? Are you a fascist? Why do you bother lending a book to a classmate?"

Lin Weiguo turned a deaf ear to his son's crying complaints. Since it is your little boyfriend's book, and it is still in such a sensitive and special period, how could he ignore it as a father.

He flipped through the book again and again, and sure enough, a small piece of paper fell out of the book. Lin Weiguo picked it up and quickly recognized it was his son's delicate handwriting.

"Lu: Thank you for the acquaintance and companionship in the past few months, but after these few days of thinking, I found that there are too many problems between us. I am too different from you in origin, personality is too different, and our age is too old. We are small, and the resistance and difficulties we face are too great, so let's break up."

This short letter was signed today, and Lin Weiguo was secretly delighted when he saw the content of the letter, but just in case of accidents, he read it three times carefully, fearing that there might be some secret code or hidden acrostic here. In the end nothing was found.

So he finally handed the letter and the book to Chen Han with satisfaction.

Lin Ran ran back to her room with an annoyed expression on her face, and locked herself up.

Lin Weiguo has been busy with his precious son these days. First of all, he contacted an institution for studying abroad. In view of the recent poor relations between China and the United States, he locked the country where he studied in Western Europe.

Then he asked the Internet police who worked in the public security department through his relationship. After working hard for two days, he finally deleted all the posts discussing Lin Ran and Lu Mingting in the No. [-] Middle School forum, and even set the names of these two people as Sensitive words.

In the past few days, Lin Weiguo looked for Huang Xinzhi and Tang Ximeng, just to find out what Lin Ran was doing recently. In the end, he even asked Xiao Zhao to find out the address and went to Lu Mingting's home.

Lu Mingting was still the same as before, he didn't eat oil and salt, he didn't eat anything soft or hard, threats and temptations didn't work, Lin Weiguo had to admit that he was exactly the same as Lin Ran in terms of stubbornness.

From the beginning to the end of their conversation, Lu Mingting didn't give him a good face, and the only answer he had was that sentence: "It's useless to say anything, I only listen to your son."

Later, seeing that Lin Weiguo hadn't left, Lu Mingting directly brought out a gleaming kitchen knife from the kitchen, which scared Lin Weiguo into a fright, and Bai Xiaomo's scream could break through several floors of residential buildings.

Lin Weiguo once thought that he was so angry that he was going to kill someone, and even took out his mobile phone to call the police. At this time, Lu Mingting turned the knife in one direction and handed it to him.

Lu Mingting said solemnly: "If you don't want me to look for him, you might as well hack me to death."

Although Lin Weiguo was not kind-hearted, he really killed a person for this reason. This kind of thing is beyond the bottom line of his moral cognition.What's more, if Lu Mingting really lacked arms and legs, Lin Weiguo would not be able to explain to Lin Ran.Maybe my son will hate himself for the rest of his life because of that kid.

Thinking of this, Lin Weiguo finally had no choice but to leave with resentment.

However, if Lin Ran could figure it out by himself, it would be a different matter.Thinking of this, Lin Weiguo was so happy that he wanted to set off a firecracker to celebrate immediately.Considering that there is still a bottle of Lafite from 00 at home, I also took it out and opened it.

When Lin Ran came out to eat, he saw that the long dining table at home was filled with his favorite dishes, of course there were the sweet and sour pork ribs and sweet-scented osmanthus rice wine that he ordered today.

What's even more exaggerated is that Lin Weiguo and Li Meijin even changed into formal clothes for the holidays. Could it be to match this bottle of noble French red wine?

Lin Ran asked suspiciously: "Excuse me, what are you doing?"

"Congratulations to Xiaoran for your new life." Lin Weiguo raised the wine glass in his hand and said seriously.
