After Being Bent by Reader
Chapter 93
The weather was very cool in November, Murong Mingshu was wearing a plain satin dress, and suddenly felt a gust of wind blowing, she shivered, looked at the empty door, and said: "Alian, I was just now Isn't it dazzled? I seem to see the two of them..."
Aunt Lian shook her head in a daze, and said, "It's not my eyesight, I saw it too."
The silky shawl fell quietly on the floor, Murong Mingshu didn't notice it, her mouth was slightly open as if she was dumb, unable to make a sound.
Aunt Lian walked towards the gate, opened it, and looked outside to make sure that the two had left. She closed the door again with a "bang", and quickly walked back to Murong Mingshu, saying, "Let's go!" gone."
Murong Mingshu grabbed her wrist with fingers like dead branches: "What do they mean?"
"You ask me, how do I know!" Aunt Lian looked anxious, "No matter how good the relationship is, you can't kiss, you say these two children..."
Murong Mingshu stared at her blankly: "Did you notice that there was something wrong with them before?"
Aunt Lian thought about it, and said: "Yes, yes! One weekend, Xiaoshi went out for a walk with you. I saw that Chuan Chuan hadn't woken up, so I wanted to go up and ask her to get up and eat something. When she opened the door, she hadn't changed her pajamas yet. I just saw..."
"what did you see?"
Aunt Lian's old face became hot, she pointed to her chest below her neck, and said: "She has several red spots here, I asked her what's the matter, she immediately panicked, covered it with her hand, and said she was bitten by a mosquito." Yes. I thought about it later, how could the mosquito bite such a large piece, as if someone sucked it out with his mouth. "
"..." Murong Mingshu said frightenedly, hesitantly and unbelievably, "Could it be Xiaoshi???"
There were no outsiders, so Aunt Lian simply guessed boldly: "Don't you find it strange? There is a guest room at home, why do these two people sleep in the same room? It seems that they are almost inseparable except for eating. There was another day in the middle of the night, I got up to find water, Just as I was about to go downstairs, I suddenly heard a strange sound coming from Xiaoshi's room, as if a man and a woman were on the bed... Do you understand?"
To put it so bluntly, how could Murong Mingshu, who has experienced it, not understand?It's just that she felt that this matter was too ridiculous, and it was difficult to accept this fact for a while.
Aunt Lian picked up the shawl and stuffed it into her arms: "I've heard that two men and two women would do that kind of thing before, but I never thought of Xiaoshi and Chuanchuan..."
"No, it won't." Murong Mingshu interrupted her, "Could it be that we are thinking too much?"
They are all old and conservative people, and Aunt Lian also hoped that she was overthinking, but seeing is believing, how can she deceive herself?
"Would you like to visit their room?"
"Okay, okay, go and have a look."
Aunt Lian usually does the cleaning, and every time she is very disciplined and does not touch Murong Shi's things, when something like this happened today, the two elders didn't care about being reserved, and started rummaging through boxes and cabinets after entering the room.
When I opened the bedside table, I could see everything inside, a few packs of unopened finger cots, a vibrator, a jumping egg... Seeing these novelties, the two old people blushed and dared not touch them.
Then Aunt Lian found a book from under the pillow, neither of them could read the words clearly, so Aunt Lian hurriedly went to Murong Mingshu's room to find reading glasses for her.
After reading the brief introduction, Murong Mingshu's face turned pale, and she didn't dare to read any further.
Aunt Lian hurriedly asked, "What did you write?"
Murong Mingshu closed the cover, her lips trembled, it was hard to speak.
In the car.
Xu Chuanchuan's heart was beating wildly, and he said anxiously: "Auntie and Aunt Lian must be suspicious."
Murong Shi's tone was relaxed: "I just want to make them doubt."
Xu Chuanchuan stared at her side face with wide eyes: "Why didn't you tell me in advance so that I can be mentally prepared?"
"what to prepare?"
Xu Chuanchuan was stopped by her question.
Murong Shi smiled and said: "My mother and Aunt Lian should be the ones who need mental preparation. I think the two of them must have gone to my room now, and they will understand everything when they see those things."
Thinking of the embarrassing scene at Murong's house, Xu Chuanchuan was so ashamed that she wailed and covered her face with her hands.
"Do you think they can accept it?"
"How would I know."
"Then how dare you suddenly?!"
Murong Shi took advantage of the red light to stabilize the car, looked at her and said, "What are you afraid of, my mother and Aunt Lian both like you so much."
"But..." Xu Chuanchuan hesitated to speak, but didn't know where to start.
Murong Shi held her hand and said, "Don't worry, you'll know what their attitude is when you come back at night. Why are you sweating and nervous?"
Xu Chuanchuan rubbed the sweat from his palms to his trouser legs, and said angrily, "It's not all because of you, you kissed me in front of them without saying hello, and I was so scared that I broke out in cold sweat."
Murong Shi couldn't help laughing.
Xu Chuanchuan also knew that it would be a matter of time before she came out, and she also thought that the test at home would not be so easy, after all, her parents only met Murong Shi twice.Murong Mingshu and Aunt Lian were different. These two elders treated her as if they were their daughters.Although Murong Shi kept comforting her, she was still worried.
After working in a daze for a whole day, Xu Chuanchuan didn't move when he finally got off work.
Everyone else in the office had left, Murong Shi came to her and said, "Let's go."
Xu Chuanchuan looked constipated, hesitantly said: "How about...you can go back today by yourself."
"Scared?"
Xu Chuanchuan pursed his lips and nodded.
"What am I afraid of?" Murong Shi forcefully pulled her up, "An ugly wife will see her in-laws sooner or later."
"I'm not ugly."
"So what are you afraid of?"
"..."
Going up to help Fang Qin feed the fish, Xu Chuanchuan finally compromised and went back with Murong Shi.
"Mom, we're back."
"Ah, auntie." Xu Chuanchuan smiled stiffly.
Aunt Lian was preparing dinner in the kitchen.
Murong Mingshu was sitting in the living room watching TV, her complexion looked the same as usual, but when she saw their two tightly clasped hands, her eyes changed.After a while, Murong Mingshu smiled politely and said, "You're back? The meal isn't ready yet, do you want some fruit first?"
Xu Chuanchuan tried to pull his hand out, but Murong Shi clasped it even tighter, and pulled her over to sit on the sofa.
As soon as she sat down, Xu Chuanchuan saw the book on the coffee table, and when she saw the familiar cover and text, her breath stopped.
It was a novel she wrote...
She didn't know when Murong Shi brought the book back, and she didn't know how Murong Mingshu found it. Her body tensed up, and she didn't even react when Murong Shi handed her an apple.
"Open your mouth." Murong Shi touched her lips with a sliced apple.
Xu Chuanchuan was really embarrassed in front of Murong Mingshu, took the apple with his free hand, took a bite anxiously, his eyes were uncontrollably glued to the novel.
Is it too late to hide now?
"Xiaoshi, Mom has a question I want to ask you." Murong Mingshu said.
Xu Chuanchuan's heart skipped a beat, and she accidentally bit her tongue, causing her to yell "ah" in pain.
Both pairs of eyes looked at her, Murong Shi asked: "What's wrong?"
Xu Chuanchuan shook his head reluctantly, trying to laugh but couldn't.
Murong Shi picked up the novel on the coffee table, flipped through it casually, looked at Murong Mingshu and said, "Did you find it in my room?"
Embarrassment flashed across Murong Mingshu's face, and she said, "It's not that Mom doesn't respect your privacy, it's just because..."
"I know." Murong Shi interrupted her calmly, "You came into my room to find evidence."
Murong Mingshu remained silent.
Murong Shi took the dazed Xu Chuanchuan's hand and kissed it, ignoring Murong Mingshu's strange eyes, and said: "Mom, I like Chuanchuan, we have been together for a long time, I was afraid that you would not be able to accept it, so I kept it a secret until now. "
Murong Mingshu had prepared a draft for a long time and was ready to ask for clarification, but she didn't expect that Murong Shi confessed before she had said a few words, she was a little at a loss: "But I don't understand, didn't you date Shaohua before? "
Murong Shi lowered her eyes and said, "Jiang Shaohua and I are just acting in a show, there is no actual relationship, we are just pretending to be a couple."
"..." Murong Mingshu was too surprised to speak.
"I know you have always disliked Jiang Shaohua. You think there is something wrong with his character." Murong Shi paused for a while, looked at Xu Chuanchuan beside him who was so nervous that his palms began to sweat again, and smiled, "What kind of person is Chuanchuan?" You and Aunt Lian should both know that she is a good girl."
Murong Mingshu looked at this for a while, looked at that for a while, opened and closed his mouth, unable to hold back a word for a long time.
Xu Chuanchuan said timidly: "Auntie, I really like Murong, I want to be with her forever, I hope you can help us."
Murong Mingshu's ears are soft, how can she stand up to these two people attacking back and forth?The tirade that had been brewing was forgotten in an instant, she stood up abruptly, evading the question and said, "I'll go see if Aunt Lian is done."
The two of them were left staring at each other.
Xu Chuanchuan said dejectedly: "She doesn't seem to be able to accept it."
Murong Shi pondered for a while, and said, "I may not be able to accept it in a short time, but it will be fine in the future."
Sun An didn't come back, so the four of them ate dinner.Without the joy and harmony of the past, the atmosphere at the dinner table today is a bit weird.
The four of them tacitly did not mention that matter again, but they all tacitly agreed.Knowing that Murong Mingshu has always been a vegetarian, Xu Chuanchuan silently made a piece of steamed pumpkin for her.
Murong Mingshu's eyelids trembled, and he smiled at her and said, "Eat more, too."
Seeing her eating that piece of pumpkin, Xu Chuanchuan breathed a sigh of relief.
Aunt Lian was not too taboo here, Xu Chuanchuan gave her a piece of tenderloin.Aunt Lian also ate with a smile.
Overall, the meal was still awkward.
It was raining outside, Murong Mingshu couldn't go for a walk, and she was afraid of being embarrassed and didn't want to stay with the two of them, so she said she wanted to go back to her room as soon as she was full.
Murong Shi picked up the novel on the coffee table and followed, saying, "Have you read it?"
Murong Mingshu didn't know what she wanted to do, she moved her lips and said, "I didn't mean to look through your things on purpose, but I just glanced at them casually."
"Does it look good?"
"..." Murong Mingshu's expression was unnatural, "I just read it casually, the content... I didn't remember the content."
Murong Shi smiled lightly and said, "Actually, it's pretty good-looking. This is a novel written by Chuan Chuan."
"Written by Chuan Chuan?" Murong Mingshu was stunned for a while, looking over her shoulder for Xu Chuan Chuan.
It happened that Xu Chuanchuan was looking at them, heard their conversation, and bowed his head in embarrassment.
"Well, she is very talented. She has written six novels like this one. If you are interested, I will bring them back for you to read someday."
The nasolabial folds on Murong Mingshu's face trembled, and he waved his hands and said, "Forget it, I can't see clearly because of my old eyesight. Besides, these... how can I see it, you child must be angry with me."
Murong Shi examined her face and asked softly: "Then are you angry?"
"What are you angry about?"
"I'm angry that we kept it from you."
"...Let's talk about this matter later." Murong Mingshu didn't want to talk about it anymore, so she pushed open the door and walked in.
Feeling very annoyed, Xu Chuanchuan decided to stop for a day tonight.The two of them took a shower and lay on the big bed, not in the mood to make out, nor did they want to sleep.
"Auntie didn't smile much today, does she not accept me?" Xu Chuanchuan asked nervously.
Murong Mingshu didn't make a clear statement, Murong Shi didn't know what to do, she was silent for a long time, and said: "Don't worry, she might need some time."
They stayed at home for three days before they left. Fang Qin called to say that she had returned from a business trip and that she would treat them to dinner.
As soon as I met Murong Shi, I reached out and asked her for a gift.
Fang Qin rolled his eyes and said, "No gift."
"There are no gifts, so there are always some biscuits, right? The peach cakes from last time were good, I like to eat them." Murong Shi teased her.
"..." Fang Qin ignored her teasing and looked at Xu Chuanchuan sullenly, "What's wrong with you?"
Xu Chuanchuan rested his chin on one hand, sighed, and said, "Auntie Mingshu and Auntie Lian know about us."
Fang Qin's eyes lit up: "Come out?"
Xu Chuanchuan let out a listless "hmm", flipping through the recipes boredly.
Seeing her frowning face, Fang Qin thought they had encountered obstacles, but seeing Murong Shi's expression was calm, the contrast between the two of them was so great, she couldn't help being confused: "Tell me."
"There's nothing to say." Murong Shi said lightly, "Don't say it's my mother, it's hard for me to accept this kind of thing for a while, but I've already figured out a way."
"What way?" Xu Chuanchuan raised his spirits.
Murong Shi pretended to be mysterious and didn't say anything.
That day Xu Chuanchuan posted a Weibo to ask readers for help, asking experienced people how to deal with coming out. Many people gave her advice, and she chose one of them.I bought a lot of health care products for middle-aged and elderly people at the online flagship store, and Xu Chuanchuan thought about delivering them to Murong Mingshu and Aunt Lian during the weekend.
But on that day, Murong Shi didn't take her back, so Xu Chuanchuan had to stay in the dormitory alone.
Murong Shi brought back the precious health care products she bought. Murong Mingshu sighed after seeing it, and said, "Why waste all this money, she doesn't have much salary for a month, right?"
Murong Shi added embellishments: "It took her a month's salary, and she can only eat instant noodles this month."
"How can I do that! Can these be refunded?"
"What are you going to do? It's her wish, so you can accept it."
"Then why didn't she come back with you today?"
"She dare not come."
"why?"
Murong Shi shrugged and said, "I'm afraid you'll see her make trouble."
"..."
Another week later, Murong Shi came back by herself, and by the way, brought back the gift sheet that Xu Chuanchuan bought for Murong Mingshu, and said, "This is a foot bath sheet, not expensive."
Before Murong Mingshu opened his mouth, she was silenced by her.
"It's cold, soaking your feet is good for your health." Murong Shi said, "I'll boil a pot of water for you."
Murong Mingshu had the habit of soaking her feet before going to bed, but she didn't expect that Murong Shi would wash her feet this time. She was shocked: "What are you doing?"
"Give you a massage."
Murong Mingshu saw that she was doing well, and said, "That's all right, all right, you don't have to please me so much."
Murong Shi kept moving her hands: "You gave birth to me and raised me, so how can I press your feet to please you?"
Murong Mingshu was speechless, looked at her focused look, and said: "I know you have always been very assertive, and there are some things that I say are useless. About you and Chuan Chuan..."
Murong Shi looked up at her.
Murong Mingshu sighed heavily, and said: "Tomorrow is the winter solstice, it's a festival anyway, let Chuan Chuan come to my house for a meal."
When Murong Shi called to tell Xu Chuanchuan the news, Xu Chuanchuan jumped up from his chair excitedly.This compromise meant that Murong Mingshu had begun to acquiesce in their relationship, and she was so excited that she didn't fall asleep all night.
She refused Murong Shi to come pick her up, and took a taxi to Murong's house early the next morning.
Murong Mingshu and Aunt Lian were still as kind as ever, and treated her friendly and gentle, but I don't know if it was because they knew about her relationship with Murong Shi that they became more intimate with her.
Murong Mingshu touched her cheeks that were flushed by the cold from the north wind, and said distressedly, "Why don't you wear a scarf?"
Xu Chuanchuan was still a little unaccustomed to it, so he shrank his neck and said embarrassingly, "I didn't expect the wind outside to be so strong."
"Look at this hand is purple from the cold."
Xu Chuanchuan only knew how to giggle.
Murong Mingshu nodded to the kitchen and said, "Aunt Lian has stewed big bone soup, let Xiaoshi make you a bowl to warm up first."
"Then let's drink together." Murong Shi looked at Xu Chuanchuan, "You help me."
Xu Chuanchuan happily followed.
She didn't dare to be too presumptuous outside, so she entered the kitchen, avoiding the eyes from the outside, Xu Chuanchuan hugged Murong Shi and said, "Your mother is so kind."
"Am I not good?"
Xu Chuanchuan laughed until his eyes narrowed, and said, "Your family is well."
Murong Shi shook her head and said, "My dad doesn't know yet."
Xu Chuanchuan's smile froze instantly.
"Although my father has a bad temper, he listens to my mother the most." Murong Shi tugged at her frozen cheek, "Why is it so cold?"
Xu Chuanchuan glanced outside, and lowered his voice: "I called Didi Taxi, and when I got in the car, I found out that the heating in the car was broken, and I was too lazy to get out."
Murong Shi frowned and said, "Give him a bad review."
"That's unnecessary, the driver refunded half of the money to me."
Seeing her overjoyed look, Murong Shi shook her head helplessly and said, "You are really a little money addict."
Xu Chuanchuan stuck out his tongue.
Worried that she would catch a cold, Murong Shi asked Aunt Lian for advice and made her a bowl of ginger soup.Xu Chuanchuan drank the loving ginger soup, but still caught a cold the next day.
Not only did she catch a cold, but Murong Shi was also infected by her. For this, Xu Chuanchuan was very annoyed, and said, "I told you no more last night, but you still come."
Murong Shi hooked her neck and kissed her again, with a strong nasal voice: "Yesterday was a good day, let's celebrate it well."
Xu Chuanchuan: "..." I haven't heard of celebrating by making love.
The cold is not over yet, Murong Shi is going on a business trip.When she went to Taiwan this time, she originally wanted Xu Chuanchuan to go with her, but after comprehensive consideration, Xu Chuanchuan decided to stay.
Murong Shi went there on a working day, so she could only ask for leave. Once she left, there would be no one to do the work at hand, and the boss would definitely not approve it.
After Murong Shi left, Xu Chuanchuan suddenly felt that there was something missing around her, but when Murong Shi sent a video to ask her if she would be bored by herself at night, she said stiffly: "No, just sleep when you want to sleep. Eat as you please, I have never been so free before."
"Freedom?" Murong Shi narrowed her eyes slightly, "What do you mean by this, do you think I was too strict with you before?"
It was.Xu Chuanchuan thought.
Some time ago, Xu Chuanchuan was introduced to a female talent show by a certain reader. She liked a good-looking young lady who could sing and dance very much.A certain person became jealous after seeing it, but he didn't confiscate her mobile phone. He just took off his clothes and kept dangling in front of her eyes.
"No, no, I was joking." The strong desire to survive forced Xu Chuanchuan to say obsequiously, and then changed the subject, "Is Taiwan fun?"
"There are a lot of delicious snacks, Linda ran out to eat by herself."
Xu Chuanchuan was told by her that she was hungry, so she secretly swallowed her saliva and said, "Aren't there many beautiful girls in Taiwan?"
Murong Shi didn't even think about it: "I don't know, I didn't pay attention to it."
Xu Chuanchuan was very happy.
After returning from a business trip, Murong Shi took Xu Chuanchuan home for dinner again.Xu Chuanchuan thought of her hard work and volunteered to be the driver.
At the beginning, Murong Shi chatted with her a few words, but she became more and more perfunctory as she went on, Xu Chuanchuan caught a glimpse of her looking down and playing with her mobile phone from the corner of her eye, and asked casually, "Aren't you done yet?"
Murong Shi said "hmm" and stopped talking.
Xu Chuanchuan didn't bother her anymore, and didn't take it to heart.At night, when Xu Chuanchuan came out wrapped in a towel after taking a shower, she was very puzzled when she saw Murong Shi still playing with her mobile phone.
Murong Shi is not a mobile phone addict like her, but since she came back from the airport, Murong Shi has never left her mobile phone, even replying to messages while eating.
"So fast?" Xu Chuanchuan stood by the bed for a while before she saw it.
Xu Chuanchuan curled his lips and said, "Who are you talking to? Linda?"
"No."
When Xu Chuanchuan wanted to go over to watch it, Murong Shi turned the screen aside intentionally or unintentionally, stood up and stretched, and said, "I'll go wash it instead."
Xu Chuanchuan watched her into the bathroom, and when she heard her mobile phone beeping, she felt a little strange in her heart.
Murong Shi is very wrong today.In the past no matter how much she peeped at Murong Shi, she never avoided her, why did she seem afraid of her seeing it just now?
In addition to this, Xu Chuanchuan also found a suspicious place.From the time they met to now, Murong Shi has never hugged her.
Aunt Lian shook her head in a daze, and said, "It's not my eyesight, I saw it too."
The silky shawl fell quietly on the floor, Murong Mingshu didn't notice it, her mouth was slightly open as if she was dumb, unable to make a sound.
Aunt Lian walked towards the gate, opened it, and looked outside to make sure that the two had left. She closed the door again with a "bang", and quickly walked back to Murong Mingshu, saying, "Let's go!" gone."
Murong Mingshu grabbed her wrist with fingers like dead branches: "What do they mean?"
"You ask me, how do I know!" Aunt Lian looked anxious, "No matter how good the relationship is, you can't kiss, you say these two children..."
Murong Mingshu stared at her blankly: "Did you notice that there was something wrong with them before?"
Aunt Lian thought about it, and said: "Yes, yes! One weekend, Xiaoshi went out for a walk with you. I saw that Chuan Chuan hadn't woken up, so I wanted to go up and ask her to get up and eat something. When she opened the door, she hadn't changed her pajamas yet. I just saw..."
"what did you see?"
Aunt Lian's old face became hot, she pointed to her chest below her neck, and said: "She has several red spots here, I asked her what's the matter, she immediately panicked, covered it with her hand, and said she was bitten by a mosquito." Yes. I thought about it later, how could the mosquito bite such a large piece, as if someone sucked it out with his mouth. "
"..." Murong Mingshu said frightenedly, hesitantly and unbelievably, "Could it be Xiaoshi???"
There were no outsiders, so Aunt Lian simply guessed boldly: "Don't you find it strange? There is a guest room at home, why do these two people sleep in the same room? It seems that they are almost inseparable except for eating. There was another day in the middle of the night, I got up to find water, Just as I was about to go downstairs, I suddenly heard a strange sound coming from Xiaoshi's room, as if a man and a woman were on the bed... Do you understand?"
To put it so bluntly, how could Murong Mingshu, who has experienced it, not understand?It's just that she felt that this matter was too ridiculous, and it was difficult to accept this fact for a while.
Aunt Lian picked up the shawl and stuffed it into her arms: "I've heard that two men and two women would do that kind of thing before, but I never thought of Xiaoshi and Chuanchuan..."
"No, it won't." Murong Mingshu interrupted her, "Could it be that we are thinking too much?"
They are all old and conservative people, and Aunt Lian also hoped that she was overthinking, but seeing is believing, how can she deceive herself?
"Would you like to visit their room?"
"Okay, okay, go and have a look."
Aunt Lian usually does the cleaning, and every time she is very disciplined and does not touch Murong Shi's things, when something like this happened today, the two elders didn't care about being reserved, and started rummaging through boxes and cabinets after entering the room.
When I opened the bedside table, I could see everything inside, a few packs of unopened finger cots, a vibrator, a jumping egg... Seeing these novelties, the two old people blushed and dared not touch them.
Then Aunt Lian found a book from under the pillow, neither of them could read the words clearly, so Aunt Lian hurriedly went to Murong Mingshu's room to find reading glasses for her.
After reading the brief introduction, Murong Mingshu's face turned pale, and she didn't dare to read any further.
Aunt Lian hurriedly asked, "What did you write?"
Murong Mingshu closed the cover, her lips trembled, it was hard to speak.
In the car.
Xu Chuanchuan's heart was beating wildly, and he said anxiously: "Auntie and Aunt Lian must be suspicious."
Murong Shi's tone was relaxed: "I just want to make them doubt."
Xu Chuanchuan stared at her side face with wide eyes: "Why didn't you tell me in advance so that I can be mentally prepared?"
"what to prepare?"
Xu Chuanchuan was stopped by her question.
Murong Shi smiled and said: "My mother and Aunt Lian should be the ones who need mental preparation. I think the two of them must have gone to my room now, and they will understand everything when they see those things."
Thinking of the embarrassing scene at Murong's house, Xu Chuanchuan was so ashamed that she wailed and covered her face with her hands.
"Do you think they can accept it?"
"How would I know."
"Then how dare you suddenly?!"
Murong Shi took advantage of the red light to stabilize the car, looked at her and said, "What are you afraid of, my mother and Aunt Lian both like you so much."
"But..." Xu Chuanchuan hesitated to speak, but didn't know where to start.
Murong Shi held her hand and said, "Don't worry, you'll know what their attitude is when you come back at night. Why are you sweating and nervous?"
Xu Chuanchuan rubbed the sweat from his palms to his trouser legs, and said angrily, "It's not all because of you, you kissed me in front of them without saying hello, and I was so scared that I broke out in cold sweat."
Murong Shi couldn't help laughing.
Xu Chuanchuan also knew that it would be a matter of time before she came out, and she also thought that the test at home would not be so easy, after all, her parents only met Murong Shi twice.Murong Mingshu and Aunt Lian were different. These two elders treated her as if they were their daughters.Although Murong Shi kept comforting her, she was still worried.
After working in a daze for a whole day, Xu Chuanchuan didn't move when he finally got off work.
Everyone else in the office had left, Murong Shi came to her and said, "Let's go."
Xu Chuanchuan looked constipated, hesitantly said: "How about...you can go back today by yourself."
"Scared?"
Xu Chuanchuan pursed his lips and nodded.
"What am I afraid of?" Murong Shi forcefully pulled her up, "An ugly wife will see her in-laws sooner or later."
"I'm not ugly."
"So what are you afraid of?"
"..."
Going up to help Fang Qin feed the fish, Xu Chuanchuan finally compromised and went back with Murong Shi.
"Mom, we're back."
"Ah, auntie." Xu Chuanchuan smiled stiffly.
Aunt Lian was preparing dinner in the kitchen.
Murong Mingshu was sitting in the living room watching TV, her complexion looked the same as usual, but when she saw their two tightly clasped hands, her eyes changed.After a while, Murong Mingshu smiled politely and said, "You're back? The meal isn't ready yet, do you want some fruit first?"
Xu Chuanchuan tried to pull his hand out, but Murong Shi clasped it even tighter, and pulled her over to sit on the sofa.
As soon as she sat down, Xu Chuanchuan saw the book on the coffee table, and when she saw the familiar cover and text, her breath stopped.
It was a novel she wrote...
She didn't know when Murong Shi brought the book back, and she didn't know how Murong Mingshu found it. Her body tensed up, and she didn't even react when Murong Shi handed her an apple.
"Open your mouth." Murong Shi touched her lips with a sliced apple.
Xu Chuanchuan was really embarrassed in front of Murong Mingshu, took the apple with his free hand, took a bite anxiously, his eyes were uncontrollably glued to the novel.
Is it too late to hide now?
"Xiaoshi, Mom has a question I want to ask you." Murong Mingshu said.
Xu Chuanchuan's heart skipped a beat, and she accidentally bit her tongue, causing her to yell "ah" in pain.
Both pairs of eyes looked at her, Murong Shi asked: "What's wrong?"
Xu Chuanchuan shook his head reluctantly, trying to laugh but couldn't.
Murong Shi picked up the novel on the coffee table, flipped through it casually, looked at Murong Mingshu and said, "Did you find it in my room?"
Embarrassment flashed across Murong Mingshu's face, and she said, "It's not that Mom doesn't respect your privacy, it's just because..."
"I know." Murong Shi interrupted her calmly, "You came into my room to find evidence."
Murong Mingshu remained silent.
Murong Shi took the dazed Xu Chuanchuan's hand and kissed it, ignoring Murong Mingshu's strange eyes, and said: "Mom, I like Chuanchuan, we have been together for a long time, I was afraid that you would not be able to accept it, so I kept it a secret until now. "
Murong Mingshu had prepared a draft for a long time and was ready to ask for clarification, but she didn't expect that Murong Shi confessed before she had said a few words, she was a little at a loss: "But I don't understand, didn't you date Shaohua before? "
Murong Shi lowered her eyes and said, "Jiang Shaohua and I are just acting in a show, there is no actual relationship, we are just pretending to be a couple."
"..." Murong Mingshu was too surprised to speak.
"I know you have always disliked Jiang Shaohua. You think there is something wrong with his character." Murong Shi paused for a while, looked at Xu Chuanchuan beside him who was so nervous that his palms began to sweat again, and smiled, "What kind of person is Chuanchuan?" You and Aunt Lian should both know that she is a good girl."
Murong Mingshu looked at this for a while, looked at that for a while, opened and closed his mouth, unable to hold back a word for a long time.
Xu Chuanchuan said timidly: "Auntie, I really like Murong, I want to be with her forever, I hope you can help us."
Murong Mingshu's ears are soft, how can she stand up to these two people attacking back and forth?The tirade that had been brewing was forgotten in an instant, she stood up abruptly, evading the question and said, "I'll go see if Aunt Lian is done."
The two of them were left staring at each other.
Xu Chuanchuan said dejectedly: "She doesn't seem to be able to accept it."
Murong Shi pondered for a while, and said, "I may not be able to accept it in a short time, but it will be fine in the future."
Sun An didn't come back, so the four of them ate dinner.Without the joy and harmony of the past, the atmosphere at the dinner table today is a bit weird.
The four of them tacitly did not mention that matter again, but they all tacitly agreed.Knowing that Murong Mingshu has always been a vegetarian, Xu Chuanchuan silently made a piece of steamed pumpkin for her.
Murong Mingshu's eyelids trembled, and he smiled at her and said, "Eat more, too."
Seeing her eating that piece of pumpkin, Xu Chuanchuan breathed a sigh of relief.
Aunt Lian was not too taboo here, Xu Chuanchuan gave her a piece of tenderloin.Aunt Lian also ate with a smile.
Overall, the meal was still awkward.
It was raining outside, Murong Mingshu couldn't go for a walk, and she was afraid of being embarrassed and didn't want to stay with the two of them, so she said she wanted to go back to her room as soon as she was full.
Murong Shi picked up the novel on the coffee table and followed, saying, "Have you read it?"
Murong Mingshu didn't know what she wanted to do, she moved her lips and said, "I didn't mean to look through your things on purpose, but I just glanced at them casually."
"Does it look good?"
"..." Murong Mingshu's expression was unnatural, "I just read it casually, the content... I didn't remember the content."
Murong Shi smiled lightly and said, "Actually, it's pretty good-looking. This is a novel written by Chuan Chuan."
"Written by Chuan Chuan?" Murong Mingshu was stunned for a while, looking over her shoulder for Xu Chuan Chuan.
It happened that Xu Chuanchuan was looking at them, heard their conversation, and bowed his head in embarrassment.
"Well, she is very talented. She has written six novels like this one. If you are interested, I will bring them back for you to read someday."
The nasolabial folds on Murong Mingshu's face trembled, and he waved his hands and said, "Forget it, I can't see clearly because of my old eyesight. Besides, these... how can I see it, you child must be angry with me."
Murong Shi examined her face and asked softly: "Then are you angry?"
"What are you angry about?"
"I'm angry that we kept it from you."
"...Let's talk about this matter later." Murong Mingshu didn't want to talk about it anymore, so she pushed open the door and walked in.
Feeling very annoyed, Xu Chuanchuan decided to stop for a day tonight.The two of them took a shower and lay on the big bed, not in the mood to make out, nor did they want to sleep.
"Auntie didn't smile much today, does she not accept me?" Xu Chuanchuan asked nervously.
Murong Mingshu didn't make a clear statement, Murong Shi didn't know what to do, she was silent for a long time, and said: "Don't worry, she might need some time."
They stayed at home for three days before they left. Fang Qin called to say that she had returned from a business trip and that she would treat them to dinner.
As soon as I met Murong Shi, I reached out and asked her for a gift.
Fang Qin rolled his eyes and said, "No gift."
"There are no gifts, so there are always some biscuits, right? The peach cakes from last time were good, I like to eat them." Murong Shi teased her.
"..." Fang Qin ignored her teasing and looked at Xu Chuanchuan sullenly, "What's wrong with you?"
Xu Chuanchuan rested his chin on one hand, sighed, and said, "Auntie Mingshu and Auntie Lian know about us."
Fang Qin's eyes lit up: "Come out?"
Xu Chuanchuan let out a listless "hmm", flipping through the recipes boredly.
Seeing her frowning face, Fang Qin thought they had encountered obstacles, but seeing Murong Shi's expression was calm, the contrast between the two of them was so great, she couldn't help being confused: "Tell me."
"There's nothing to say." Murong Shi said lightly, "Don't say it's my mother, it's hard for me to accept this kind of thing for a while, but I've already figured out a way."
"What way?" Xu Chuanchuan raised his spirits.
Murong Shi pretended to be mysterious and didn't say anything.
That day Xu Chuanchuan posted a Weibo to ask readers for help, asking experienced people how to deal with coming out. Many people gave her advice, and she chose one of them.I bought a lot of health care products for middle-aged and elderly people at the online flagship store, and Xu Chuanchuan thought about delivering them to Murong Mingshu and Aunt Lian during the weekend.
But on that day, Murong Shi didn't take her back, so Xu Chuanchuan had to stay in the dormitory alone.
Murong Shi brought back the precious health care products she bought. Murong Mingshu sighed after seeing it, and said, "Why waste all this money, she doesn't have much salary for a month, right?"
Murong Shi added embellishments: "It took her a month's salary, and she can only eat instant noodles this month."
"How can I do that! Can these be refunded?"
"What are you going to do? It's her wish, so you can accept it."
"Then why didn't she come back with you today?"
"She dare not come."
"why?"
Murong Shi shrugged and said, "I'm afraid you'll see her make trouble."
"..."
Another week later, Murong Shi came back by herself, and by the way, brought back the gift sheet that Xu Chuanchuan bought for Murong Mingshu, and said, "This is a foot bath sheet, not expensive."
Before Murong Mingshu opened his mouth, she was silenced by her.
"It's cold, soaking your feet is good for your health." Murong Shi said, "I'll boil a pot of water for you."
Murong Mingshu had the habit of soaking her feet before going to bed, but she didn't expect that Murong Shi would wash her feet this time. She was shocked: "What are you doing?"
"Give you a massage."
Murong Mingshu saw that she was doing well, and said, "That's all right, all right, you don't have to please me so much."
Murong Shi kept moving her hands: "You gave birth to me and raised me, so how can I press your feet to please you?"
Murong Mingshu was speechless, looked at her focused look, and said: "I know you have always been very assertive, and there are some things that I say are useless. About you and Chuan Chuan..."
Murong Shi looked up at her.
Murong Mingshu sighed heavily, and said: "Tomorrow is the winter solstice, it's a festival anyway, let Chuan Chuan come to my house for a meal."
When Murong Shi called to tell Xu Chuanchuan the news, Xu Chuanchuan jumped up from his chair excitedly.This compromise meant that Murong Mingshu had begun to acquiesce in their relationship, and she was so excited that she didn't fall asleep all night.
She refused Murong Shi to come pick her up, and took a taxi to Murong's house early the next morning.
Murong Mingshu and Aunt Lian were still as kind as ever, and treated her friendly and gentle, but I don't know if it was because they knew about her relationship with Murong Shi that they became more intimate with her.
Murong Mingshu touched her cheeks that were flushed by the cold from the north wind, and said distressedly, "Why don't you wear a scarf?"
Xu Chuanchuan was still a little unaccustomed to it, so he shrank his neck and said embarrassingly, "I didn't expect the wind outside to be so strong."
"Look at this hand is purple from the cold."
Xu Chuanchuan only knew how to giggle.
Murong Mingshu nodded to the kitchen and said, "Aunt Lian has stewed big bone soup, let Xiaoshi make you a bowl to warm up first."
"Then let's drink together." Murong Shi looked at Xu Chuanchuan, "You help me."
Xu Chuanchuan happily followed.
She didn't dare to be too presumptuous outside, so she entered the kitchen, avoiding the eyes from the outside, Xu Chuanchuan hugged Murong Shi and said, "Your mother is so kind."
"Am I not good?"
Xu Chuanchuan laughed until his eyes narrowed, and said, "Your family is well."
Murong Shi shook her head and said, "My dad doesn't know yet."
Xu Chuanchuan's smile froze instantly.
"Although my father has a bad temper, he listens to my mother the most." Murong Shi tugged at her frozen cheek, "Why is it so cold?"
Xu Chuanchuan glanced outside, and lowered his voice: "I called Didi Taxi, and when I got in the car, I found out that the heating in the car was broken, and I was too lazy to get out."
Murong Shi frowned and said, "Give him a bad review."
"That's unnecessary, the driver refunded half of the money to me."
Seeing her overjoyed look, Murong Shi shook her head helplessly and said, "You are really a little money addict."
Xu Chuanchuan stuck out his tongue.
Worried that she would catch a cold, Murong Shi asked Aunt Lian for advice and made her a bowl of ginger soup.Xu Chuanchuan drank the loving ginger soup, but still caught a cold the next day.
Not only did she catch a cold, but Murong Shi was also infected by her. For this, Xu Chuanchuan was very annoyed, and said, "I told you no more last night, but you still come."
Murong Shi hooked her neck and kissed her again, with a strong nasal voice: "Yesterday was a good day, let's celebrate it well."
Xu Chuanchuan: "..." I haven't heard of celebrating by making love.
The cold is not over yet, Murong Shi is going on a business trip.When she went to Taiwan this time, she originally wanted Xu Chuanchuan to go with her, but after comprehensive consideration, Xu Chuanchuan decided to stay.
Murong Shi went there on a working day, so she could only ask for leave. Once she left, there would be no one to do the work at hand, and the boss would definitely not approve it.
After Murong Shi left, Xu Chuanchuan suddenly felt that there was something missing around her, but when Murong Shi sent a video to ask her if she would be bored by herself at night, she said stiffly: "No, just sleep when you want to sleep. Eat as you please, I have never been so free before."
"Freedom?" Murong Shi narrowed her eyes slightly, "What do you mean by this, do you think I was too strict with you before?"
It was.Xu Chuanchuan thought.
Some time ago, Xu Chuanchuan was introduced to a female talent show by a certain reader. She liked a good-looking young lady who could sing and dance very much.A certain person became jealous after seeing it, but he didn't confiscate her mobile phone. He just took off his clothes and kept dangling in front of her eyes.
"No, no, I was joking." The strong desire to survive forced Xu Chuanchuan to say obsequiously, and then changed the subject, "Is Taiwan fun?"
"There are a lot of delicious snacks, Linda ran out to eat by herself."
Xu Chuanchuan was told by her that she was hungry, so she secretly swallowed her saliva and said, "Aren't there many beautiful girls in Taiwan?"
Murong Shi didn't even think about it: "I don't know, I didn't pay attention to it."
Xu Chuanchuan was very happy.
After returning from a business trip, Murong Shi took Xu Chuanchuan home for dinner again.Xu Chuanchuan thought of her hard work and volunteered to be the driver.
At the beginning, Murong Shi chatted with her a few words, but she became more and more perfunctory as she went on, Xu Chuanchuan caught a glimpse of her looking down and playing with her mobile phone from the corner of her eye, and asked casually, "Aren't you done yet?"
Murong Shi said "hmm" and stopped talking.
Xu Chuanchuan didn't bother her anymore, and didn't take it to heart.At night, when Xu Chuanchuan came out wrapped in a towel after taking a shower, she was very puzzled when she saw Murong Shi still playing with her mobile phone.
Murong Shi is not a mobile phone addict like her, but since she came back from the airport, Murong Shi has never left her mobile phone, even replying to messages while eating.
"So fast?" Xu Chuanchuan stood by the bed for a while before she saw it.
Xu Chuanchuan curled his lips and said, "Who are you talking to? Linda?"
"No."
When Xu Chuanchuan wanted to go over to watch it, Murong Shi turned the screen aside intentionally or unintentionally, stood up and stretched, and said, "I'll go wash it instead."
Xu Chuanchuan watched her into the bathroom, and when she heard her mobile phone beeping, she felt a little strange in her heart.
Murong Shi is very wrong today.In the past no matter how much she peeped at Murong Shi, she never avoided her, why did she seem afraid of her seeing it just now?
In addition to this, Xu Chuanchuan also found a suspicious place.From the time they met to now, Murong Shi has never hugged her.
