After the divorce, the boss doted on me

There is a convenience store at the entrance of the community, about 300 meters away. Along the way, Lin Jiaming took the initiative to find topics to chat with.

"How is living alone in Shanghai? It's hard, isn't it?"

"well enough."

"When I graduated, I never thought about staying in Shanghai. The hospital at home is relatively quiet."

"Well, I have a friend who is in a hospital in Shanghai. It's really busy."

"Yes, so I live my life by myself. It's really unnecessary to work too hard. Although I have to work overtime at home, I don't have to work overtime regardless of day and night. I can't stand the rhythm of Shanghai. During my internship, I..."

Lin Jiaming started chatting again, but after a few hundred miles away, Tan Man also got to know him for the first time, a little self-inflated, not very motivated, thinking about how to enjoy life at a young age, maybe their family Maybe it's because of the good family conditions since I was a child.

"By the way, I just offered a house in the new area last month. This is in Shanghai, so it's far away."

There was a trace of complacency in Lin Jiaming's words, and Tan Man just smiled. At this moment, she suddenly missed Gu Mochen, his composure, his politeness and humility, his hard work, and his elegance. Demeanor, it turned out that this blind date made her more determined, and no one was more in line with her than Gu Mochen.

If it wasn't for you, I'd rather lack than abuse,
But what about you?
"Manman?" Lin Jiaming beside him frowned and called out to her, "What's wrong with you?"

Tan Man came back to her senses, her voice was a little weaker than before: "What's wrong?"

The other party froze for a moment, then turned his head and said nothing.

During the meal, the elders were still intoxicated with good expectations. They chatted happily while eating, but Lin Jiaming was obviously a little more silent than before, and Tan Man didn't even say a few words. With superficial peace.

After the meal, the mother and daughter didn't linger too long, and went back after sitting for a while.

Tan Man was washing dishes in the kitchen, while Xu Qiong was tidying up the stove, she said with a smile, "I did something bad with good intentions, I don't know if he followed suit."

"Thank you, Auntie, you understand me, but it's good for him to come, I think he understands my attitude to some extent." Tan Man rinsed the last bowl and turned off the water.

"Marriage is a lifetime thing, you have to choose someone you like, otherwise, the long life will be suffering." Xu Qiong sighed.

Xu Qiong was right, Tan Man pursed her lips, and asked cautiously: "Aunt Xu, what do you think of Lawyer Gu?"

Without even thinking about it, Xu Qiong blurted out, "I care about you."

"Huh?" She looked at Xu Qiong with wide eyes.

"The night you rushed back from Shanghai, you didn't even notice the medical trolley by the door of the ward. If Xiao Gu hadn't reached out from behind to block it for you in time, your waist would have been bruised for several days."

"I don't remember at all." Tan Man frowned.

Xu Qiong said with a smile: "You were thinking about your father at the time, but of course you couldn't see that the back of Xiao Gu's hands were black."

Tan Man was stunned, she looked at Xu Qiong fixedly, and didn't know what to say for a moment.

All afternoon, Tan Man locked herself in her room, trying to avoid her father, Tan Weiguo, while struggling with Gu Mochen on what to do.

She really wanted to know what the lawyer was thinking, but she was clearly at a loss for what to do when she was looking forward to it. She lay on the bed thinking wildly, and fell asleep without knowing it.

The phone rang beside the bed, Tan Man looked at the screen in a daze, and it turned out to be Li Zhu.

She sat up from the bed and cleared her throat: "Brother Li?"

"Teacher Tan, it's me, didn't I bother you?" Li Zhu was as polite as ever.

She hasn't seen him since the incident at the hospital last time: "Don't bother, is there something wrong with Xiaoqin?"

"No, no, no," Li Zhu said, "I just want to call to thank you and Lawyer Gu, you are really noble people in our family."

Tan Man didn't quite understand: "Thank you?"

"Yeah, I'm sorry for the fact that I went to the hospital last time. Not only were you not angry, but you even asked Lawyer Gu to find me a job. I really don't know what to say. Teacher Tan, you don't have a scar on your face, do you? "

After Tan Man heard this, she couldn't understand: "Don't worry, my face is fine, but I don't quite understand, what do you mean when you say that Lawyer Gu will find you a job?"

"You don't know?" Li Zhu was also stunned for a moment, and explained, "Last week, Lawyer Gu found me a job as a warehouse manager. It was a night shift, and it didn't conflict with my day job at the construction site, so I could earn more money. , you also know that our family has another mouth to eat, I... hey, I was really desperate for money when I went to the hospital to make trouble, thanks to you and Lawyer Gu, you are really good people. "

It turned out to be the case, Tan Man blinked, "Brother Li, I really can't do the medical trouble anymore. Now that I have an extra job, I should work hard and life will be fine."

"Yes, I will never do that stupid thing again, Mr. Tan, Mr. Gu is your boyfriend, right? He treats you really well, otherwise, he wouldn't have come to help me for no reason. I know that the warehouse manager It was Lawyer Gu who asked someone to introduce me, you tell him for me, I will do a good job and not embarrass him."

"..." Tan Man was a little embarrassed, "Brother Li, you misunderstood. We are friends. Don't look at Lawyer Gu's indifference on the surface, but he is actually very enthusiastic in his heart. I will tell him."

……

After hanging up the phone, Tan Man leaned against the bed in a daze. After a long while, she picked up the phone again and found Gu Mochen's WeChat account. She didn't reply to the ambiguous instruction that day.

After thinking about it, he quickly typed a few words on the screen and pressed send.

"I had a blind date today, and it was only after the end that I became clearer about what I want."

1 minute, 2 minutes, one hour, two hours... This time it was Gu Mochen's turn to not reply.

It turned out that this feeling was really bad, very bad.

I don't know if she slept too much in the afternoon or was subconsciously waiting for a reply. Tan Man suffered from insomnia and tossed and turned until the middle of the night before falling asleep in a daze. The next morning, with slightly black eyes, she got up to cook Two bowls of noodles.

While eating noodles, Tan Weiguo sized her up and asked, "No, did you sleep well?"

Tan Man lazily raised her eyelids and said, "I probably drank too much tea yesterday."

Tan Weiguo nodded, and then said: "You, Aunt Niu said, today, Jia, Jiaming, is on vacation, for a while, come, come over, and give some New Year's goods, I will keep him, eat, you, be warm, be more affectionate, don't, don't Same as yesterday."

Tan Man sucked the noodles slowly, and when she heard her father's words, her originally not-so-sunny mood became even more gloomy: "What happened to me yesterday?"

"Tell me, what's the matter, stern, stern, with a straight face, and don't, don't talk." Tan Weiguo frowned slightly.

Tan Man didn't want to quibble, she was really not interested in that Lin Jiaming, no matter yesterday, today or tomorrow, she was very sure that she would never talk to him, especially when she thought of the time they went to buy soy sauce together yesterday, when he said something The self-satisfaction and hedonism shown made her instinctively disgusted and repulsed. Yes, there are too many young people who share the same values ​​as him at the moment. It can't be regarded as derogatory. It's not fair to judge whether he is good or not, but the parents' intentions are too obvious. This is an acquaintance who was rushing to get married, so she can only set the standard more harshly.

Considering that her father had just recovered from a serious illness and her emotions should not fluctuate too much, she didn't speak back, anyway, it wasn't about getting married tomorrow, and she didn't reveal her thoughts for the time being. At that time, the parents couldn't say anything.

"Again, no, talk?" Tan Weiguo put down his chopsticks and looked at her seriously, "What do you think, Jiaming?"

She wanted to avoid it, but her father asked straight to the point. Tan Man swallowed the noodles in her mouth, and said softly, "That's it."

"Just, that's it? What kind?"

"He's quite tall."

"..." Tan Weiguo snorted, "You know what I mean."

"Father, how do you ask me to judge someone who just met once?"

"Then, for a while, you two, let's have a chat. I think, then, the child is very good. He is handsome, human, and cheerful."

"Father, I think you are recovering better and better. Look, you speak long sentences much more smoothly than before." Tan Man smiled, trying to change the topic.

"Short, off topic." Tan Weiguo ignored her, "I observed that yesterday, his attitude towards you was quite warm and enthusiastic. Aunt Niu's house, and he knows the whole thing. If you look for it, I can rest assured .”

"Dad, you said before that it's good to just be friends and get to know each other. Why are you going online now? It seems like you really want something."

"Now, let's let you two get to know each other more." Tan Weiguo tried hard to say, "This guy, Dad, likes it."

"You've only met a guy, so just say yes, this conclusion is drawn too quickly, there are a lot of people out there who are better and better than him." Tan Man was a little unconvinced.

"I, I'm afraid that if you think so, you will be fooled by those people outside!" Tan Weiguo raised his voice, "Shanghai, yes, there are many men in the world of flowers, but, no, it's not simple, sweet talk, Easiest, easiest, to confuse people."

Tan Man's resentment grew stronger: "Dad, I am also an adult, and I have the ability to judge and see people. Besides, I am the one who falls in love, gets married and lives a life. I hope to find someone I like."

"So, speaking of it, you don't like it, Jiaming?"

Tan Man didn't speak, she lowered her head and continued eating noodles.

"Or, say, you, already, have, like?"

Tan Man felt guilty for a moment, but she still didn't speak.

"That day, that, that, man?" Tan Weiguo pressed.

Tan Man finally raised her head, pursed her lips, and sighed: "No, no, Dad, let this matter take its course, I'm not a 30-year-old girl now."

"When you don't have a partner, of course, let it be, let it be, now, I see, you are, there is a situation!"

"There is no situation, no object, so don't guess." Tan Man was agitated, picked up the bowl, got up and said, "I'm done eating, I'm going to wash the dishes."
