"You feel so relaxed now. You can walk much more briskly."
Li Han acted as the driver and drove him to Xiao Jin's house.
The scenery on both sides of the road keeps flowing backwards.
Xu Bai, who looked a little heavy when he arrived, looked a little more relaxed now.
The change is quite obvious.
Hearing his words, Xu Bai smiled bitterly and nodded thoughtfully:
"Most of my life has passed. I have worked so hard. I have done so much. Everything is done in order to eat food, take care of the children, and take care of the family. I only have this half of my life left, and it is still my own."
"Who lives in this world not just for food?"
Li Han sighed casually.
Keep your eyes on the road.
The steering wheel in his hand turned from time to time, and he was no stranger to the road to Xiaojin's house.
It was he who found the house that this child wanted to rent.
In Qingyang County, he has a thorough knowledge of real estate.
Listening to his emotion, Xu Bai smiled bitterly,
indeed so.
Everyone works hard just for a bite of food.
...
Xu Gu's family.
On the sofa in the living room,
Xiaoya sat on the sofa, naturally put her long legs on Xu Gu's legs next to her, stared at him, and asked:
"Since you won't tell me what you talked about, then tell me your dad's story, I want to hear it!"
"My dad's story? Haha, what kind of story can my dad have? Do you have any misunderstandings about him?"
When Xu Gu heard this, he laughed.
He really couldn't make up the story.
Xiaoya pouted her mouth and hummed:
"Hmph, then you can tell us about his past. I always think your dad is quite amazing."
"It's quite magical? What a magical method, tell me. I'm quite curious about what dad is like in your eyes."
After listening to her words, Xu Gu became interested. He naturally squeezed her legs with his hands and asked.
The degree of pinching in my hands is just right and I am very skilled.
"Hmm~ How should I say it?"
Xiaoya felt very comfortable on her legs and murmured to herself. Thinking of what she had seen before, she quickly said:
"You know the last time I went back with my mom to talk about kiwi fruit? It was just last week. When I went back, I found my dad in a daze, looking at an old photo."
"In a daze? Aren't you often in a daze? What's the point of it?"
Xu Gu joked with a smile.
Immediately afterwards, Xiaoya glared at him angrily and continued:
"Listen to me, the photo that dad took was very mysterious. As soon as mom and I walked in the door, he quickly hid the photo. I felt something was wrong!"
"Xiaoya, don't you always claim to have very accurate intuition? Who do you think he is in that photo, and why is he avoiding you?"
Xu Gu asked while squeezing his legs.
Look at Xiaoya.
The latter thought for a moment and shook his head:
"I don't know, but I can feel that he is avoiding mom. If mom goes back alone, he will definitely hide her on purpose."
"Does Dad really have a new love?"
Xu Gu asked directly.
Xiaoya gave him a light hammer and scolded:
"What are you talking about? My parents have such a good relationship. Don't you know better than me what my father is like? He can't be that kind of person! I have always envied your parents' relationship. We will be like them in the future.
Give birth to a son and a daughter, and we will be happy. Then we can retire together, and I will be satisfied for the rest of my life!"
"Um!"
Xu Gu nodded with a complex expression.
There was silence for a moment.
"What's wrong? There's something wrong with your expression all the time!"
Xiaoya frowned and asked quickly.
"I'd better be honest with you. My parents are divorced! My dad won't let me tell you, but I've been thinking about finding a suitable opportunity to tell you."
Xu Gu hesitated and said.
As soon as the words came out, a look of shock appeared on Xiaoya's face.
Looking at Xu Gu in disbelief:
"Xu Gu, do you know what you are talking about?"
"I won't joke about this kind of thing. After all, the relationship between the two of them has always been good. Not to mention you, even Xiaojin and I are very envious. Who knew that they would get divorced suddenly!"
Xu Gu said quickly.
Hearing this, Xiaoya asked:
"When did this happen?"
"Just today, I just found out not long ago."
Xu Gu lamented that the incident was too sudden.
Maybe the parents had discussed it before but didn't inform their children.
Seeing Xiaoya's shocked expression, Xu Gu could only continue to squeeze her legs silently.
"No wonder, when I asked Dad to take the kiwi fruit back, Dad's expression stiffened. You asked him to give it to Xiaojin! So that's how it is!"
Xiaoya thought about what just happened.
murmured.
Then, he frowned again, feeling something was wrong:
"My parents have such a good relationship. Why did they get divorced? They were fine not long ago. I didn't see any disharmony at all. Is it really because of that photo? You said dad has always been nice.
, there shouldn’t be any style issues, right?”
"Well, that won't happen. I'll let him do that and be loyal!"
Xu Gu said quickly.
The eyes are firm.
Xiaoya snorted coldly:
"Huh, I don't dare to say anything else, but I can still control you."
"Hey, that's what I realized!"
"Then why are they still divorced? I can't think of any other reasons or reasons."
"My dad's favorite thing in his life is my mom. I didn't expect him to do this. People, sometimes liking it too much can lead to being too selfish and only focusing on doing things for the other person.
Whether the other party wants it or not..."
Xu Gu sighed thoughtfully.
As soon as he finished speaking, his expression changed slightly and he looked at Xiaoya.
The latter was staring at him strangely.
"Xu Gu, if you don't want to tell me, forget it."
"I do not..."
"It's okay. I can understand that your dad has his own affairs and secrets. You two, father and son, have some secrets, which means they have a good relationship. We just need to be good~"
"Um!"
...
The car is driving on the road.
"Lao Xu, all my old friends have lost touch with me over the years. To put it bluntly, you are the only friend who has been with me all this time! Alas!"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Li Han sighed while driving.
He looks like a businessman, but he can't stop feeling frustrated.
Xu Bai glanced at him and nodded:
"Yes, since Mr. Li became rich, many of your old friends have dispersed. But that's normal. Everyone's circle has changed. Who doesn't become more and more separated?"
"Well, you are different. I am quite strange sometimes."
"Strange? What's strange?"
"When chatting with those old friends, they are either shabby and sour and give me sour compliments, or they are a bit lowering themselves, being attentive, deliberately acting in front of me, and begging me to do things.
...It can be said that all living beings have changed. But you are still the same as before, neither plain nor indifferent, neither humble nor arrogant. When we talk about the topic, you are not as sour as them. I am very surprised, how can you have such a mentality?
So stable?"
"Haha, you confused me. How did I know? I didn't pay much attention. Anyway, it doesn't affect our relationship whether you have money or not. You can even help me. Isn't this great? Don't you
Disgusting, I just need it."
Xu Bai smiled disapprovingly and didn't pay much attention.
Nodding, bowing, and groveling are something he will never learn in his life.
Not to mention that treating an old friend requires careful restraint.
Once the attitude changes, the relationship between the two will deteriorate.
If the relationship deteriorates, the friends will naturally not get along.
No one wants to be friends with someone who wants to be their boss.
"You see, it's this energy! I envy your attitude. No matter who you are, you will never look at it through colored glasses. On the contrary, the more you do this, the more I can feel that you are not simple, like...
He can see through us."
Li Han said quickly, his eyes constantly looking at Lao Xu beside him.
I have experienced a lot in these years, whether it was bankruptcy or a moment of glory, I have experienced it occasionally. Friends and relatives around me have also left one after another, either getting closer or moving away.
There are all changes.
Only this old Xu treated himself consistently.
When you need him, you will never be polite, and no matter how much strength you have, you will never hide it.
When helping him, people will sincerely want to help him as much as possible, and they will not notice any restraint or awkwardness. The relationship between the two families has also become good because of this.
Apart from running around a lot in the first half of his life, Lao Xu later settled down in Qingyang County when his children grew up. His life was ordinary, nothing special happened, and there were occasional changes in his life, but they were all calm.
It makes Li Han a little confused. Such an ordinary person has such a stable mentality.
So it feels strange.
Xu Bai noticed his eyes and quickly reminded:
"The more you talk, the more outrageous it becomes. Please drive well!"
"I'm an experienced driver, don't worry! It's very stable!"
Li Han smiled.
Go to where Xiaojin lives.
It's only about twenty minutes away, so it's not too far.
The power of the car is still very powerful.
When they arrived at the downstairs of the community, the car stopped and the two of them went upstairs carrying the kiwi fruit.
While walking, Li Han said proudly:
"Look, the environment here is pretty good, right? When I was choosing it for Xiaojin, I took a fancy to the environment here! They young people like sports and come out to play when they have nothing to do. This environment, this place, is absolutely comfortable!"
"Yes, it's pretty good."
Xu Gu glanced around. The community had good greening, a large area, and a running track and other facilities. It was indeed more comfortable to live in than an ordinary community.
Li Han is interested.
.......
The floor where Xu Jin is located is not high.
After all, she was a girl, so Xu and Bai made a phone call in advance.
As soon as the elevator door opened, a beautiful figure was waiting here.
Xu Jin is tall and slender, with a bit of Xu Bai's look between her eyebrows. She is pretty and has a bit of heroism.
She was wearing a light gray casual outfit and said with a smile:
"Dad, Uncle Li, you are here!"
"Well, here we come!"
Xu Bai nodded and walked out of the elevator.
Li Han on the side was more enthusiastic than him and walked out together:
"Xiao Jin, why are you still waiting here? Just wait at home. Your dad and I are not outsiders! So polite!"
"Haha, it's okay! Why did you bring some fruit?"
Xiao Jin smiled and quickly stepped forward to take the fruit from Xu Bai's hand.
Xu Bai didn't give her:
"It's okay, it's not heavy. You open the door and I'll carry it!"
"Eh!"
Xiaojin had no choice but to nod and go to open the door.
Look at the obedient children.
Li Han shook his head and sighed:
"You said it's great that you two children are so filial. Unlike the rebellious son of mine, who always confronts me, gets embarrassed, loses his temper, and makes me angry! It's not good!"
"You are used to it, so why should you blame the child for not having a good birth? You have to find the reason within yourself!"
Xu Bai retorted.
The two followed and walked in.
The house we rent is not big.
A living room, kitchen, small balcony, single bedroom and bathroom.
After bringing the two people in, Xiao Jin seemed a little restrained.
Standing aside, he smiled awkwardly and said:
"I don't have anything to entertain you. Let's go out for dinner later. Just...I called him! We'll meet at the hotel then."
"He!? Who is it?"
Li Han was stunned and asked.
Xu Bai, who was beside him, nudged him with his elbow before he reacted.
He took a sip of water awkwardly.
Xu Bai said to Xiao Jin:
"Okay, then you should put on makeup and dress up. Let's go there early!"
"I'm ready, I can leave now!"
Xiaojin stepped on her heels, feeling a little nervous and expectant.
They have been secretly in love for two years, and they just announced it officially to their families recently. After careful consideration, the two decided that this was an opportunity to meet their parents. But they didn't expect that they would suddenly encounter the news of their parents' divorce. Now they just
I can let dad meet his boyfriend first.
Xu Bai nodded, looking at his daughter with a bit more complicated emotions.
A Chinese restaurant.
An ordinary-looking young boy with thick eyebrows and big eyes sat on one side of the dining table nervously.
Sitting upright, with a very upright figure.
She is a little fat and has some flesh on her face.
Next to him sat Xu Jin, and in front of him were Xu Bai and Li Han.
Xu Bai asked a few questions briefly. The young man was a down-to-earth person. He kept rubbing his hands with sweat and was a little nervous.
The atmosphere also became a little stiff and tense.
Seeing the three people in an awkward situation, Li Han smiled gently and said half-jokingly:
"Boy, I don't know about the rest, but I should praise you for your vision. It's so precise and vicious! I picked the best girl in one pick!"
"Eh!"
The other party was still a little nervous and smiled cautiously.
The more nervous you are, the more you care about it.
After looking at his dress and understanding his family status, position and background, Xu Bai was quite satisfied.
At least for him, he has initially passed the test.
His face was solemn at the moment, and he spoke earnestly:
"Since you have decided to be together and have decided to come to meet your parents, it shows your attitude that you want to be together. What your Uncle Li said is right. I also know Xiaojin's way of looking at people. I feel relieved. You are also adults.
I believe you have thought carefully about it. I hope you two will be well... You must treat Xiaojin well!"
"Well! Well! Don't worry, uncle!"
The boy's expression became serious.
"dad?"
Xiaojin looked at her father with doubts on her face, even though she was mentally prepared.
I never expected that my father would say so many things to her boyfriend when they first met.
This feeling is like an entrustment~
Completely giving yourself to the other party? That’s it?
"Hahaha, your dad is a little anxious. Come, come, come, eat, eat! The specialties of this restaurant are good!"
Li Han's expression changed slightly, and he quickly smoothed things over with a smile.
