Growth pain

The matter of finding a house was temporarily put on hold, and Lu Shining hadn't been home to visit his parents for a long time.

After coming to other provinces, he has been using the new mobile phone card and the old mobile phone number, but he only calls his parents and friends.

Speaking of friends, Zhang Lei even called to complain a while ago: "Lu Shining, you are so scary when you are young."

Lu Shining asked: "He asked me where I went?"

"That's not true. I thought about it and told him I don't know, but he didn't ask." Zhang Lei muttered, "But he added me on WeChat and sent me a smiley face."

Lu Shining: "..."

He also couldn't figure out what Yuan Sen was doing, and Yuan Sen would indeed do some confusing things occasionally.

Lu Shining could only say, "Thank you for your hard work."

Zhang Lei scratched his head, and asked plainly and deeply: "You two just broke up like this, and we will never see each other again?"

Lu Shining didn't answer.

I really don't know what to say, rationality tells him that he won't, one day he will go back to his hometown, and he will go back during the Chinese New Year and holidays.If Yuan Sen really stayed in Chuanyang, they would meet sooner or later.

The matter on Yuansen's side has not been resolved yet, and Lu Shining has encountered new problems.

Chen Shuangyi, whom he met not long ago, is half of Shao Qing's boss.According to Shao Qing, the man now greets her every day, and asks about Lu Shining by the way.

Lu Shining only said five words: "Don't tell him."

The attitude is firm and the tone is affirmative.

Shao Qing is much more reliable than Zhang Lei. He really didn't disclose any news, but he can also see some clues from the performance of the two.

"Did Chen Shuangyi fall in love with you?"

On Saturday, Shao Qing came to see Lu Shining alone, and spoke out what he had been holding back for a long time.

Lu Shining said, "Nothing."

Shao Qing narrowed his eyes: "Stop lying, I was only familiar with you when I was in college, and I met him twice, and Zhang Lei followed me every time. I thought it was because he and Zhang Lei had a good relationship. Now that I think about it, it is You have a better relationship with him, right? Zhang Lei just incidentally."

Lu Shining: "Don't say that about Zhang Lei, it's poor."

Shao Qing brushed her hair, crossed her arms and looked at Lu Shining: "Don't change the focus, we are talking about you and Chen Shuangyi now."

Lu Shining asked: "Didn't you mean to come with your girlfriend, where is she?"

Shao Qing paused, and finally sighed, "Okay, I don't want to talk about it. She was called to work overtime, and she probably won't be here until the afternoon. Let's have lunch first."

"Are you so busy at work?" Lu Shining looked at her, "What about you?"

Shao Qing curled her lips, "I've been here for a long time, she's still a newcomer, she might be better next year, after the company comes to intern..."

Shao Qing waited for a while to see that he had no intention of speaking, and said, "Is Chen Shuangyi okay?"

Lu Shining raised his head blankly, and the woman gestured with her fingers: "He looks good, he talks well, and his family conditions are pretty good. The most important thing...is he curvy?"

Lu Shining blinked slowly, "Yes."

"Do you think there is something wrong?"

"No."

"Then why don't you try it out?"

Lu Shining also couldn't answer, being single for 24 years, is he going to stay single like this forever?

Shao Qing saw that he was thinking, and immediately struck while the iron was hot: "There's nothing wrong with meeting and chatting, and you can be friends if you can't be a partner."

Lu Shining noticed the strangeness: "Why are you so active?"

Shao Qing raised his hand and scratched his hair, and finally chose to tell the truth: "The two of us have WeChat. He always talks to me recently. Can we small soldiers not reply when the leader speaks? Even if we don't see it, what happens every two or three hours Come back too."

Lu Shining understood the sadness of this social animal very well, and nodded accordingly.

"But Xu Jia doesn't think so. She always thinks that Chen Shuangyi is interested in me." Shao Qing was a little embarrassed, "I told her that's not the case."

Lu Shining was very straightforward: "Then you can push his WeChat to me."

Shao Qing was taken aback, "Are you sure?"

Lu Shining asked strangely: "Didn't you persuade me? And..."

Shao Qing's nerves tensed up, "And?"

"It will cause unnecessary misunderstanding and worry to your girlfriend." Lu Shining glanced at her, "These can be completely avoided."

Shao Qing breathed a sigh of relief, "Is it because of this? I thought..."

"Why?"

Shao Qing stopped talking and reached out to pat him on the back.

Lu Shining always likes to think about others and forgets himself, fearing to cause trouble to others, he will wrong himself.Shao Qing has mentioned his fault more than once, and he admits his mistake honestly every time, and it will be the same next time.

This time, she wanted to teach Lu Shining a lesson, but when she thought about Lu Shining's current situation, she gave up.

There are no good consequences for liking heterosexuality.This is a lesson she has learned from her previous broken loves.Lu Shining's Fa Xiao is a pretty good person, but it's a pity that he can't become Lu Shining's lover, so it's better to look forward and find a suitable person to associate with.

When Xu Jia rushed to the movie theater, the movie had already started for more than ten minutes. The girl found a seat and sat down to chat with Shao Qing, then stopped making a sound, and did not say hello to Lu Shining until the movie was over.

Lu Shining has seen her photos, she looks better in person than in the photos, she is very stylishly dressed, has a round face, has canine teeth when she smiles, like a student who hasn't graduated yet.

"Are you Lu Shining?" Xu Jia actively shook hands and talked with him.

Lu Shining was taken aback, but still responded, "Hello."

"Your voice is so sweet." Xu Jia said.

It was the first time that Lu Shining's voice was described like this. Looking at Shao Qing behind the girl, three words were written all over his face: Help me.

Shao Qing held back a smile and pulled his girlfriend away, "Okay, don't bully others."

"I don't have one." Xu Jia turned to look at Shao Qing, "Your friend is my friend, why should I be more enthusiastic about my friend?"

Lu Shining was taken aback for a moment, his eyes turned around the two of them, and finally he showed a faint smile.

Xu Jia glanced at him from the corner of her eye and immediately said, "You are so sweet when you smile."

Lu Shining didn't dare to smile anymore, with a troubled face, he replied after a few seconds: "...Thank you."

Shao Qing couldn't help laughing this time.

After dinner, Xu Jia went to the bathroom.

There were only two people left at the table, Lu Shining said, "She should like you very much."

Shao Qing was stunned, "Why did you say that all of a sudden?"

"When she looks at you, you are the only one she sees."

Shao Qing covered her mouth and laughed, "Bao'er, are you a master of emotion?"

Lu Shining frowned in dissatisfaction, only slightly, looking a bit childish.

After leaving the shopping mall, Shao Qing went to the front to hail a taxi, Xu Jia suddenly asked Lu Shining, "Do you want to add a WeChat?" She had already taken out her mobile phone while talking.

The two added WeChat, and Lu Shining looked at the girl's profile picture.

"It's a character from an anime." Xu Jia said, "Do you think it's childish?"

"No." Lu Shining said, "It's quite cute."

Xu Jia rolled her eyes, "It's called Chubby, if you're interested, you can watch this anime."

Shao Qing called a taxi to hail the two of them, and Xu Jia said, "I might talk to you tonight, you won't find it troublesome, will you?"

Lu Shining thought about what Zhang Lei awkwardly told him about Xu Jia before, he hesitated and said, "I'll come back when I see it."

Xu Jia: "That's good."

Back home in the evening, Xu Jia really talked to him, told him the name of the anime, and asked about Shao Qing's time in college.

Finally she said: [Do you know Zhang Lei? 】

Lu Shining: [Well, it's a classmate. 】

Xu Jia: [I heard that he chased Shao Qing. 】At the end, a very cute cat expression pack is added.

Lu Shining: [Now we are just friends. 】

Xu Jia: [Yeah, I know]

Lu Shining put down his phone, looked at the last string of texts that the girl replied, and seemed to understand Xu Jia's thoughts a little bit.

Whether approaching Zhang Lei or adding him on WeChat, it is all to get to know Shao Qing better.

Do you regard Zhang Lei as a rival in love?

Lu Shining thought while wiping his wet hair.

But he wasn't going to tell Shao Qing.

This kind of thing is more meaningful for the parties themselves to find.

It's definitely not because Shao Qing laughed at herself after dinner.

He never held a grudge.

After becoming friends with Chen Shuangyi, the man didn't rush to invite Lu Shining to meet, but asked him first if he found the house.

Lu Shining replied that he was still looking.

Chen Shuangyi: [Are you looking down on my apartment? 】

Lu Shining: [The price is too low, you are at a disadvantage. 】

Chen Shuangyi: [I see. 】

After a while, Chen Shuangyi said again: 【How about turning it up a bit? 】

Lu Shining: 【I can't afford to rent it anymore. 】

Chen Shuangyi sent a helpless expression: [Shi Ning, what exactly do you want? 】

Although the two have not seen each other for three or four years, they are not ignorant of each other.

Lu Shining said directly: 【At least don't be tied together because of the house. 】

Chen Shuangyi: [Then let's meet this weekend. 】

Lu Shining: [Not this weekend. 】

Chen Shuangyi: [Is there something wrong? 】

Lu Shining: [I want to go home, I haven't been back for a long time]

Lu Shining did not lie.

There is no conflict between him and Chen Shuangyi that cannot be resolved. The past is over, and he doesn't really mind it.It would be great if he could meet up and explain clearly, but he really didn't have time this weekend, so he made an agreement with Father Lu in advance to go home.

And Chen Shuangyi did not give up easily, and asked him to meet next week when he was free.

Lu Shining agreed.

On the day of returning to his hometown, Lu Shining deliberately changed into relatively thick clothes.Chuanyang is not as warm as Jingshi. In the middle of September, the weather turns cold, and I can't even eat more ice cream.

When Lu Shining came home with fruit and almond milk, Lu's mother nagged again, but this time he was prepared and said, "You can put it there, I'll eat it."

Lu's mother poked his forehead on tiptoe, Lu Shining obediently lowered his head, and called "Mom".

Lu's mother stopped scolding him, and patted him on the shoulder, "Okay, how old is he and he's still so tired, go and call your dad back for dinner, he must still be watching people playing cards outside, even if you say he won't get tired of it! "

When Lu Shining went out, he met Yang Qiongfang who came back from shopping. He called "Aunt Fang", and Yang Qiongfang said enthusiastically, "It's Ningning, you're back."

She looked behind him, her eyes seemed to be looking for someone.

Lu Shining knew who she was looking for, so he turned to pass her by.

Yang Qiongfang made sure that there was no one behind him, and turned to him after going up the stairs, "Yuan Sen came back a while ago, didn't he come back with you this time?"

Lu Shining shook his head.

He wasn't ready to meet Yuan Sen yet, but he would meet anyway during Chinese New Year.Unless Yuan Sen went back to his father this time.But this idea was too bad, he thought about it for a while and then stopped thinking about it.

After Lu Shining found Father Lu, he walked back with the old man.Father Lu said: "Where do you work now, don't tell me."

Lu Shining pursed his lower lip, "It's a bit far away."

"How far can it be?" It was already dark, and Lu's father took out the flashlight. This is the bad thing about the old community, and there is not even a voice-activated light.

"In Jingshi."

"Oh." The little old man squinted his eyes and pondered, "It's a bit far away, why did you think of running there?"

Lu Shining lowered his head and illuminated Lu's father's feet with the light of his mobile phone. His voice was quiet, and no one heard what he said.

He said he was hiding from people.

"Is there a place to live? I asked you on the phone and you didn't say anything."

"Yes, I live in the staff dormitory, and there is a middle school next to it." Lu Shining answered honestly.

"Isn't that noisy?"

"It's okay." Lu Shining lied, "I can sleep well."

The author has something to say: I originally wanted to write about meeting Yuan Sen in one breath, but I overestimated myself.And the name of the anime is "Magic Girl Madoka Magica"
