In the city [entertainment circle]

80

During family gatherings on weekends, Shen Xiao drove to the door of Li's house early, and then saw Li Ruosen who was waiting at the door. He was wearing home clothes and looked thinner, but he was not that weak and thin. , I think I have been exercising a lot recently.

"I'm late?" Shen Xiao lowered the car window and asked. He deliberately arrived a little earlier, but it was not too early. After all, the relationship between him and Li Zhengying hadn't eased to that point, and the atmosphere of Li's house sometimes made people feel uncomfortable. He felt suffocated.

"No, just right." Li Ruosen said, he has become more cheerful recently, he opened the car door, sat in the co-pilot, and then directed Shen Xiao to drive home, "Brother and Ruoyu haven't come back yet, it will probably be around 7 o'clock " He said to Shen Xiao, "I'll take you around the house first."

Naturally, Shen Xiao would not object. He followed Li Ruosen's instructions and drove to the garage of Li's house. After the two got out of the car together, they went to the garden, "Here." Li Ruosen took Shen Xiao to the garden of his home, and Next to the conservatory, "After she left, only the gardener is left to take care of it." He took Shen Xiao in and walked in, "But it's well taken care of." Many plants were planted in the garden, There was still a smell unique to a greenhouse in the air. Shen Xiao followed Li Ruosen for a while, and came to a table and chair in the greenhouse. The iron table and chair were too small, with a few cushions on it. Here, I come here secretly every time, pick some flowers and run away." He squatted down and looked at the tables and chairs that were obviously not prepared for adults, "I think she must know, that's why I prepared this here. "

Shen Xiao looked at this set of tables and chairs, and could tell that this set of tables and chairs had been around for a long time, but it shouldn't be something from 20 years ago, "This was changed later?"

"Well, the original set is too old and can no longer be used. It was put in the garden and used as a flower stand. This set was re-customized later. It is exactly the same, and it is placed in this garden."

Needless to say, Shen Xiao also knew who wrote it.

"I heard that Li Zhengying is getting married." Shen Xiao and Li Ruosen slowly walked out of the greenhouse. He had just heard from Li Ruosen that Li Zhengying invited him to a family gathering and that Li Zhengying's female companion was from a friend in the circle. Hearing that Li Zhengying already planned to get married, it suddenly occurred to her that the female companion Li Ruosen was talking about was probably Li Zhengying's fiancée.

"Maybe." Li Ruosen said, "I haven't seen her before." Li Ruosen and Shen Xiao walked slowly, and when they saw something interesting, they stopped and took a good look, "You Who did you hear it from?"

"It's been rumored in the circle." As the local tycoon, Li's family also has a lot of insiders in the film and television industry who know some inside information, so it's not surprising that news leaked out, and there is no impenetrable wall in the world—— Although Shen Xiao felt that this was probably Li Zhengying's own intention.

"Is it a family gathering tonight?" Shen Xiao asked, he and Li Ruosen walked out of the greenhouse together and went outside, the weather was fine today, they stood under the tree, chatting casually, "Where is Ruoyu?"

"He hasn't come back yet." Li Ruosen said, "I heard that there are new investment projects recently."

"He's a good fit for the job."

"Maybe." Li Ruosen said, he turned to look at Shen Xiao beside him, "Are you a little nervous today?"

"See it?" Shen Xiao asked, he thought he was hiding it well.

"You don't usually talk so much." Li Ruosen said. From the very beginning, he felt that something was wrong with Shen Xiao today. After careful consideration, he realized that Shen Xiao talked too much today. It is certain that there is no such thing as time-traveling in this world, he must have thought that Shen Xiao was time-traveled.

"There's nothing to be nervous about."

"I haven't participated in this kind of formal family gathering." Shen Xiao said, his host, Li Ruosen, knocked his chin on the top of his head, "It's actually not nervous, I just thought about your eldest brother's fiancee I want to come... just to make a good impression on her."

"Be a good sister-in-law?" Li Ruosen asked with a smile, he stretched out his hand, and pulled Shen Xiao's ear with some difficulty and awkwardness, "She is not nervous, why are you nervous?" Li Ruosen said, suddenly saw Uncle Zhong waved to the two in the distance, "They should be back, let's go."

Contrary to Shen Xiao's expectations, Li Zhengying's fiancée is different from the big woman he imagined, on the contrary, she looks like a weak little white flower. She doesn't look too old, and she looks a little shy when she looks at everyone. Say hello a little.

Li Ruosen greeted her, and Li Ruoyu was already seated, "Today is a family banquet, so don't be restrained." Li Zhengying said, he opened the chair for his fiancée and guided her to a seat, they were useless to Li On the contrary, the hall for meeting guests at home is just a small hall for eating, a round table, which can seat exactly five people, and everyone is very close to each other, and they don't seem so alienated.

"It hasn't been this lively for many years." Li Ruoyu said suddenly.

Shen Xiao was a little confused at first, so after looking at the layout of the table, he understood what Li Ruoyu meant. It seemed that before the mother of the two brothers Li Ruosen passed away, their family of five also sat together to eat like this.

Li Zhengying's fiancée seemed to be a shy person, she didn't talk much, it was only during the chat that Shen Xiao discovered that she was two years older than Li Ruosen.

Li Zhengying didn't talk much, and she was even more indifferent to Shen Xiao, but when talking to her fiancée, she spoke softly, although she was still indifferent, but after all she was a little more gentle... Li Ruosen exchanged a glance.

After the meal, Li Zhengying personally sent his fiancée home. Li Ruoyu lay on the sofa, a little lazily, "I think brother is caught this time." He couldn't tell whether he was happy or unhappy, and it took a while After that, he suddenly asked Li Ruosen, "Are we going to have another sister-in-law?"

"It should be." Li Ruosen was very calm. When Li Zhengying said that he was going to bring his fiancée to dinner at home, he knew that his eldest brother should have accepted this person.He looked at Shen Xiao beside him, "Let's go, we're going back too."

On the way back, Li Ruosen opened the car window, and the breeze blew away the dullness in the room, "I suddenly thought..."

"Ok?"

"I'm thinking, if those things didn't happen at that time, wouldn't it be more lively today?" Li Ruosen said to Shen Xiao, and the next second, he shook his head, "What should have happened has already happened, Cherishing the present is the right truth, why bother to recall the past all day long." He looked into Shen Xiao's eyes, which were a little bright, "I talked to my elder brother at night, and he said she was fine."

"It's time for a lonely person to find a partner." Shen Xiao said, he felt that Li Zhengying came to trouble him because he had nothing to do all day.

When the car drove into the parking lot, Li Ruosen suddenly said another word.

"Shen Xiao."

"Ok?"

Li Ruosen leaned over and leaned gently on Shen Xiao's shoulder, "Although it's a bit late, I still think it's good to meet you."

Shen Xiao didn't speak for a while, and finally he lowered his head and kissed Li Ruosen's earlobe lightly, "I think so too."

Although it was too late to meet, it didn't matter, they still had a long, long time ahead.
