"I don't know if the two of them can eat well at home."
Even after going downstairs, Zhao Xuanying was still a little uneasy.
According to Liu Weicheng's words, before going out, he specially handed the money to Zhu Qinqin, not to mention that the other party was already young. If the two sisters did not eat well, they would use the meal money to buy other things...
I can't stop talking even if I wear this seat belt.
Such a state of broken thoughts was reflected in Liu Weicheng's eyes, which gave him a strange feeling inexplicably.
"Why do you look like my aunt now?"
"Eh? What's the same?"
"It's like worrying about your children spending money indiscriminately."
Responding with a smile, Liu Weicheng started the vehicle, drove out of the parking space and left towards the entrance of the community.
"You are not yet twenty years old, but your state of mind is not much different from that of a married woman. Shushu and Qinqin are not children anymore. If you keep the money, you will definitely go to eat if you feel hungry, so don't worry.
.”
"But if you want to give the money to Shushu, I can rest assured. If you give it to Qinqin... don't let the two of them fight over this matter."
Zhao Xuanying made a worried sound in her voice.
Her worries are not all exaggerated. Although there is a five-year age difference between the two sisters, the atmosphere at home is anything but peaceful.
Petty fights are common, not to mention that Liu Weicheng left all the meal money with Zhu Qinqin. If Zhu Shushu, the elder sister, asks her sister for money to eat, the two sisters may cause some trouble.
As the saying goes, the more you think about it, the more worried you become.
Even after getting in the car, Zhao Xuanying looked worried. After mumbling to herself for a while, she clapped her hands and said firmly.
"Why don't you pack some for them to take back? Anyway, the old hen soup usually served is not very quick. You can take it home and heat it up before eating it."
"There should be a lot of sauced elbows left, so I might as well pick them up and put them in plastic bags and take them home."
"Really? Do you think it's feasible?"
"It can be done with wool!"
Zhao Xuanying, who failed to hear the irony in Liu Weicheng's words and still asked about the feasibility, received a rebuttal from the other party.
He shrunk his head and glanced at Liu Weicheng, who was talking loudly beside him.
He buckled his seat belt.
The voice was inexplicably lower.
"I think it's nothing..."
"Why bring something back that has been glued to other people's tachyons? Except for some old ladies, most of the people at the table can't do this."
"..."
"Just focus on eating your food, don't worry about it."
As Liu Weicheng's words fell, Zhao Xuanying, who had been mumbling just now, suddenly became silent.
Driving on the spacious road, Liu Weicheng realized that it was a little quiet.
He glanced at the girl next to him and saw that she had her head lowered and remained silent.
Take a breath.
"The main thing is that you followed me there. Packing it back is a bit pricey."
"Don't waste too much on things that haven't been touched..."
"It's a bit wasteful, but the hotel will handle it themselves, so don't worry about it. If someone sees it, they don't know how to arrange it behind your back."
"Are you... afraid that I will be embarrassed?"
"No, I just feel that except for the old people in the village, young people today basically don't do this kind of thing."
"..."
Listening to Liu Weicheng's rebuttals one after another, Zhao Xuanying, who was still happy about having a big meal before going out, suddenly lost her joyful mood.
Although the man next to him didn't say it clearly, he kept repeating the price reduction of the act of packing.
Zhao Xuanying has been dependent on her grandma since she was a child, and she has lived a hard life for a long time.
It was only in the second half of last year that things started to get better after I got to know Liu Weicheng.
Once bitten by a snake, you will be afraid of well ropes for ten years.
It is precisely because of the hard times that Zhao Xuanying cherishes her current life.
In the past, every time my grandma attended a banquet, she would always bring some food home, and she could eat it for a while each time.
In her opinion, there is no problem at all, but in Liu Weicheng's opinion, the behavior of being diligent and thrifty is somewhat devalued...
As his business grew bigger and bigger, Liu Weicheng seemed to have begun to change.
If it was him who was still setting up a stall in front of the school, he would definitely not think there was anything wrong with his behavior of wanting to pack up and go home.
People... really do change.
However, such changes made Zhao Xuanying feel an inexplicable sense of distance.
It seems...the distance between her and Liu Weicheng is gradually widening.
Once an idea arises, it seems to take root and sprout in your mind.
In order to prevent herself from thinking too much, Zhao Xuanying took the initiative to look for other topics after a long silence. It was only now that she remembered the important point that she had never asked.
"By the way, why didn't you ask Teacher Lin to come with you when you were attending the wedding banquet? Instead, you called me over?"
"..."
"What's wrong? Why don't you speak again?"
"nothing."
The sudden sentence made Liu Weicheng silent for the first time.
It wasn't until Zhao Xuanying asked the second sentence that Liu Weicheng responded uncertainly.
He paused for a while while driving the car, feeling the gaze of the girl next to him. He paused for about half a minute before adding.
"I wanted to call her at first, but she seems to be very busy these days. Even when I called this morning, she declined because she didn't have time."
"Really? No wonder you called me. It turns out that Teacher Lin didn't have time to go."
"..."
"But what has Teacher Lin been busy with recently? It feels like I haven't seen her for a long time."
Zhao Xuanying said that it had been a long time since Lin Nianwei suddenly showed up at Liu Weicheng's home until today, the sixth day after the Chinese New Year.
This contrast is very strong. Unlike when the two first fell in love, they were always stuck together. From the time when the New Year was approaching, Lin Nianwei could count the number of times she appeared on one hand.
Even the slowest person to react can still sense something is wrong in a situation like this.
The same is true for Zhao Xuanying.
"What happened between you...and her? I don't feel as close as before."
"It's nothing, it's just that something happened at her family."
"Why can't you even get away to meet me? Is it serious?"
"I don't know either."
Liu Weicheng replied briefly, and spoke calmly, without seeming to have much emotion.
"She didn't want to tell me, and I didn't want to dig too deep."
"..."
"Everyone has their own secrets and thoughts. I won't force her too much. Of course, if she needs me, I will spare no effort to help."
"oh……"
As Zhao Xuanying finished her reply, the conversation between the two stopped completely.
There was no conversation until we arrived at our destination.
It's not too early.
Excluding the time spent on the road, it was already around ten o'clock when we arrived at our destination. Generally, meals start around twelve noon. The waiting time of two hours is neither long nor short.
After getting off the car, Zhao Xuanying kept half a body's distance behind and quickly followed Liu Weicheng who was striding forward.
