Chapter 22
"Hi, Xiao Nian, I'm Aunt Wang next door to your house. Your mother has been standing outside the door talking to herself for more than half an hour, but she didn't open the door. She didn't answer when I asked her, as if she didn't know us. What's going on, come back and see."
Heart sank, Mo Xiaonian got up from the bed in a jerk, and replied repeatedly,
"Okay, I'll go back right away. Aunt Wang, thank you, and I have to trouble you to take care of my mother for a while."
After hanging up the phone, Mo Xiaonian grabbed her bag and ran outside.Lin Jiajia, who hadn't reacted yet, stepped forward and stopped her.
"What's the matter? It's midnight, where are you going. What happened to your mother?"
"I'll explain to you later, I have to go back first."
"Then I'll send you off, wait a minute, I'll change a pair of shoes."
"Come on, take good care of yourself at home. I'll find Lu Yiming to take me there."
After speaking, he took out his mobile phone to call Lu Yiming, and ran outside.If she ran 800 meters at this speed when she was in college, she would have been selected for the national team and participated in the competition.
It was completely dark, the car gradually drove into the suburbs, and there were fewer and fewer pedestrians on the road.Mo Xiaonian clenched her hands into fists and took deep breaths to remind herself to calm down.
Although Lu Yiming had already driven the car very fast, Mo Xiaonian still felt that the road was too long.I wish there was a portal that would allow her to reach the door of the house directly.
At this moment, she was worried, afraid, and all kinds of emotions came to her heart.I just hope mom is okay.
When I arrived at the door, my mother was squatting by the door, holding a small book in her arms, and looked suspiciously at Aunt Wang who was talking to her.
"Mom~"
Mo Xiaonian cried out tremblingly.Seeing her come back, Aunt Wang finally let out a long breath and told her with her mouth that her mother was staying outside and no one would care about her.
When she heard her voice, her mother turned her head and looked in her direction.She was suddenly terrified of seeing disappointment and anger in her mother's eyes again, of being driven away again.But this time, when her mother looked at her, she was full of joy, like a child who just got lucky money.
"Nian Nian, you are finally back. Mom can't find the key and can't open the door. Come on, take me home."
This long-lost "go home" made her eyes wet for no reason.Although she knows that her mother will accept her again because she has temporarily forgotten her father's departure, and maybe she will cruelly ask her to leave soon after she wakes up, but she is extremely greedy for this hard-won warmth, and only hopes that time can pass Slow down, slow down.
With trembling hands, she reached into her bag and took out her spare key from the innermost compartment.She kept this key with her all the time, and she almost thought that she would never have a chance to use it to open the house again.
As soon as the door was opened, my mother couldn't wait to take her hand and walk in.This step into it startled Mo Xiaonian and Lu Yiming who came in after him. Wherever they went, the water covered the heels of their shoes.It turned out that the faucet of the sink at home was not turned off, and the water overflowed from the sink, flooding the entire floor.Mo Xiaonian quickly turned on the faucet.
Seeing this, my mother looked innocent.
"It's not me, I didn't do it."
"Auntie, let me testify to you that you are innocent. It's all Xiaonian's fault. She forgot to turn off the water when she went out and locked you outside. Hehe"
Lu Yiming showed his signature smile again, moreover, his trick was suitable for all ages, it even coaxed Mo Xiaonian's mother, who saw him for the first time, to giggle, and hurriedly and enthusiastically beckoned him to sit down quickly.This made Mo Xiaonian, who had been forgotten, very jealous, and pinched him bitterly. Unexpectedly, this "villain" exaggeratedly yelled "pain~", and took the opportunity to complain to her mother, which attracted Mo Xiaonian. Xiao Nian gritted her teeth in hatred.
This warm scene happened to be seen by Zhao Lingfeng who came in a hurry.As soon as he stepped into the door, he felt a chill all over his body, and his already resolute face became even colder at this moment.Mo Xiaonian didn't know why she suddenly felt a little guilty, but then she thought that she and Xue Zhiqing had reached a consensus, and that she only had a working relationship with Zhao Lingfeng.As a result, he felt that there was nothing to be afraid of or feel guilty about, so he met his dissatisfied and searching eyes directly.
"Doctor Zhao, why are you here?!"
Thinking about it, it should be Aunt Wang who called him. Aunt Wang was entrusted by him to help take care of his mother.At this moment, he was able to come here, which actually moved her a little, but since they were destined to be just partners, there shouldn't be too much involvement.
Facing her question, Zhao Lingfeng did not answer.Instead, he stared at Lu Yiming thoughtfully.For some reason, he felt uncomfortable when he saw this person. Although it was the first time they met, he just wanted to tell him that the other person was not a "good thing".Uh, of course, he is not the only one who feels this way, Lu Yiming is also there.
And Mo Xiaonian's mother had already recognized him, she clapped her hands and said,
"Aren't you Nian Nian's colleague who came to see me a few times, come here, sit down quickly." He said to Mo Xiaonian again, "Why do you let the guest stand at the door, let him sit down quickly."
But there is no place to sit in this room full of water.
Then, he called Mo Xiaonian to introduce them to each other.Although there is a hundred thousand unwillingness in my heart, I still have to do it to save face.
She reluctantly invited Zhao Lingfeng into the living room, and met Lu Yiming face to face. After briefly introducing their names, she smiled dryly and didn't know what to say.Because she always felt that the air was filled with embarrassment, but she didn't know why.
Next, she began to feel grateful that these two strong "workers" came to the family.Otherwise, when will they be able to drain the water in the room.No, with the help of these two men, she and her mother are at ease, and only need to direct from the side.
"Hey, hey, who is that, bring another mop over here."
"You, you, go to Aunt Wang's house to borrow a basin. Pour out this basin of water first."
"No, this place needs to be wiped with a towel."
When all the water was drained, the two men were out of breath.Mo Xiaonian and her mother were watching TV and eating snacks at the same time, feeling very uncomfortable.
After they rested, Mo Xiaonian handed each of them a bottle of water and watched them drink it.
"Thank you two for today, I'll treat you to dinner another day. It's too late today, how about..."
Any fool could tell that Mo Xiaonian meant to see off guests.
I can't blame her for being stingy, the main reason is that their house has limited space, and it is really inconvenient to squeeze two more big men.Moreover, this house has been soaked in water for so long, and it is dirty and messy everywhere. It is really not the way to welcome guests.
Unexpectedly, Lu Yiming sat down on one end of the sofa like a fool, and said, "I won't leave, I'll just stay with my aunt. If there's anything to do in the middle of the night, I'm still a hard worker."
