"Hey, I'm only 19 years old now, and it's still too early to get married. I don't know if I'll still be here when I have a baby. She asked me to go have a full moon drink. If the money doesn't come back in the future, I'll lose a lot.
La." said a little girl.
"Stop talking. The more I talk, the angrier I get. I think my normal relationship with her is pretty good. Two years ago, when my son was one month old, I invited her to go. She told me that she had something to do at home and couldn't go. Now,
But she had the nerve to ask me to attend her daughter’s full moon party. I’m really angry.” Another colleague expressed dissatisfaction.
"Actually, she didn't go to your son's full moon party. You don't have to go to her daughter's full moon party. Otherwise, the red envelope should be at least 1,000. Otherwise, people will think you are too stingy. You also
You can find an excuse not to go." Someone said angrily.
"She is such a shrewd, calculating and greedy person. I can't be like her," said the colleague.
"Hey, let's go, let's go, she's already screaming. Besides, this is a big happy event, so it's okay to spend some money to enjoy it." Someone acted as a peacemaker and said.
Everyone sighed sadly and said nothing.
"Xia Lan, do you need to give money to attend the full-moon banquet?" She had never participated in such a banquet and did not know that such a thing happened when her child was one month old.
"Yes!" Xia Lan replied.
"But I only have 500 yuan on me, and I heard them say that they should give away at least 1,000 yuan." Shui Xi said with a sad look on his face.
Thinking about her salary this month, she has basically spent it on Tangtang, so there is no money left.
Xia Lan frowned slightly and looked at her with contempt in her heart. She really knows how to pretend. How can she only have so little money if she is kept/raised by Ling Muze?
This woman looks innocent and harmless on the surface, but in fact she is very scheming. Otherwise, how could she hook up with Ling Muze, the proud man of heaven?
Fortunately, her follow-up made her see clearly what was going on behind the scenes, otherwise she would never have imagined that she was such a hypocritical person.
In fact, she really wanted to send the photos of her and Ling Muze entering and leaving the apartment to all her colleagues, and she almost couldn't help it.
However, she still had some use for her, which was to use her to get Ling Yucheng to marry her. But whether she could convince Ling Yucheng or not, she had to distribute those photos. She wanted to see how she could withstand the strange looks from her colleagues.
Although I hate her so much in my heart, my expression on my face is extremely friendly: "I brought 3,000. If I don't have enough later, I'll lend it to you."
"Well, thank you, but I have to wait until this month's salary is paid before I can pay you back."
"Why don't you say thank you to me? It's okay. If you are tight on money, you will get better gradually." Xia Lan said with a gentle smile.
"Yeah!" Shui Xi nodded.
My colleagues walked into a hotel that was average in terms of decoration and service.
When we walked into the banquet hall, there were many people sitting there, and there seemed to be about 20 banquet tables.
"I'm just giving birth to a daughter. I'm hosting a full moon party and inviting so many people. I just don't know how many people are willing to come," said the 19-year-old girl.
"It doesn't matter whether you have a son or a daughter. As long as you have a good relationship with yourself in the future and be filial to yourself, now that we are all here, let's stop being resentful and let go and eat more." Xia Lan said.
.
"Xia Lan is right, let's each find a seat and sit down. Let's eat as much as we can." A colleague shouted.
Everyone sat apart, and she and Xia Lan sat next to each other.
There are some cold dishes and a few cooked dishes on the table, but most of them are vegetarian dishes.
Since the reception hadn't started yet, everyone just sat there chatting and didn't move their chopsticks.
The waiter served a few dishes and one soup one after another and then stopped serving.
"No way? Just serve these few dishes? I still want to eat enough, but it looks like it's not enough for more than a dozen of us." A colleague said.
"She's really stingy. She has a full moon wine table. She doesn't even have crabs and shrimps. She just has braised pork and steamed hairtail fish that can be put on the table. The rest are either vegetables or radishes. She can't bring them out. I'm sure she is.
You invited us here because you were greedy for our red envelopes." Someone said angrily.
"Okay, she's already here, what else can I do? I can't ask her to serve more dishes." A colleague said helplessly.
As soon as the place got quiet, the host came up with a microphone and just said some high-sounding blessings. Then the couple came to the stage to speak with their children in their arms.
Because of the distance, she couldn't see clearly how the children in Xiaoling's arms looked like. She could only see them exaggerating how happy they were with tears.
The colleagues around them were too lazy to listen to them showing off their happiness and just kept eating by themselves. Shui Xi kept staring blankly at the child in Xiaoling's arms.
Boy, what an exciting word.
But, will she have children with her beloved in the future?
Ling Muche's cold and handsome face flashed through her mind. Her hands softened in fright and she almost lost her grip on the chopsticks.
She knew very well that the person who appeared in her mind was the current Ling Muze, not the one she had grown up with. She was really frightened.
How could she want to have a child with him? It was absolutely ridiculous. He would never be loyal to a relationship. Falling in love with him was undoubtedly seeking abuse. She could never fall in love with him, absolutely not.
Although she tried her best to get rid of his figure, he still appeared in her mind like a ghost.
She struggled to hold the chopsticks tightly, her emotions fluctuating.
"Shui Xi, you don't look good, what's wrong?" Xia Lan asked.
Shui Xi came back to her senses and smiled at her in a panic: "I'm fine."
"Shui Xi, although I don't really like Xiaoling's style, I still envy her for having a stable family." Xia Lan put her chin in her hands and said yearningly.
"Don't envy others, we will be there in the future too," Shui Xi comforted.
"Family can be found in any way, but the most complete and happiest thing is to be able to form a family with the person you love. Otherwise, what's the point of living with someone you don't love for your whole life, even if you have a family?
." Xia Lan murmured.
"Xia Lan, I will work hard to make you realize your wish..." Knowing what Xia Lan wanted, Shui Xi looked at her and said firmly.
"Shui Xi, is it really possible? Can I really have the greatest happiness in the world?" Xia Lan couldn't help but burst into tears.
Shui Xi felt sour in her heart when she saw it: "You are such a kind person, you will definitely have it."
The two looked at each other and smiled, and then ate their meals separately.
During this period, someone came to distribute wedding candies and receive the red envelopes they had prepared in advance.
"Hey, you only pay a thousand yuan to eat that kind of food and buy such a handful of small candies. It's really cheating." Someone muttered dissatisfied.
"Okay, don't be dissatisfied. The meal has been eaten. If you are dissatisfied, the money will not be returned to your pocket." Another colleague patted her on the shoulder and said.
"Let's go, the food is gone, let's go home." Someone said and stood up.
When Shui Xi saw them standing up to leave, she stood up too.
Walking to the door of the hotel, I said goodbye to Xia Lan and her colleagues one by one, and then took a taxi home.
As soon as she walked downstairs to the apartment, she remembered what Ling Muze said before leaving in the morning, asking him to wash up and wait for her in bed. Maybe he meant this to tease her, but it didn't rule out that what he said was true.
Looking up, she saw that the lights in the apartment were dimmed. She couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief, but she couldn't feel happy at all.
After gathering my mood, I walked into the apartment, turned on the lights, put down my bag, took the dog food and water from the kitchen, and went to the balcony to feed Tangtang.
But as soon as I opened the bedroom door and walked into the bedroom, I saw a person lying on the 1.2-meter-long bed. He didn't take off his coat and shoes, and he was lying on the bed.
There was an indescribable feeling flowing in his heart. It was conceivable that he was waiting for him to come back, but she didn't come for a long time and fell asleep while waiting.
Withdrawing her gaze from him, in order not to wake him up, she walked to the balcony softly to feed Tangtang some dog food.
Since Tangtang recovered from her illness, her appetite has greatly increased, which makes her very happy.
After feeding Tangtang, she returned to the bedroom, carefully took her pajamas and change of underwear and went to the bathroom to take a shower.
When she came out, she saw that he was still sleeping deeply.
She walked to the bed, looked at his sleeping face intently, and sighed vaguely.
He is such a handsome and extraordinary man. I wonder how she can remain calm and composed after spending a long time with him. She is not a saint. No matter how outstanding he is, she can remain indifferent.
Her heart was filled with strong fear. She was afraid that if she stayed with him for a long time, she would fall in love with him uncontrollably, and her feelings for him would unintentionally get deeper and deeper. Although she didn't want to admit it, the fact made her have to face her feelings for him.
My feelings have undergone extraordinary changes.
I really want to run away from him, not to see him again, and to strangle my feelings in the cradle.
However, his power is overwhelming, and as long as he doesn't let her go, no matter where she goes, he will surely be able to capture her.
She sighed in confusion, she couldn't imagine what her future would be like, and she was extremely envious that Xiaoling could obtain the most ordinary and stable happiness today.
Her wish was not big, she just wanted to live a simple life and live an ordinary life, but the vagaries of fate made her suffer the pain of losing her loved ones again and again.
She didn't know if she would be able to overcome her hardships and gain happiness in the future. She only knew that she was confused, entangled, and distressed now, and she was almost suffocated by all kinds of things.
Although it was a summer night, the night air was still a bit cold. Ling Muze's uncovered body shrank, pulling her back from her confusion.
She carefully took off his shoes, then took off his jacket and trousers very gently, then gritted her teeth and pushed his strong body in little by little, straightened him out, and covered him with the quilt.
During this period, he felt the turmoil in his body and opened his eyes, but it seemed that after seeing her, he closed his eyes with peace of mind and then fell into a deep sleep.
