desire to be loved

This Sunday night, Qin Xiulan prepared a large table of delicacies for the return of her youngest son. It has been four years since the last time the whole family ate together. Xiulan, who was so excited about this, took her son-in-law to the restaurant at seven o'clock in the morning. The market buys the freshest ingredients so that my son can taste the local cuisine.

In order to present her son with the best dishes, she even skipped lunch and asked others to handle it by herself, and forbade anyone from entering the kitchen.

And the only daughter has never done housework since she was a child, and usually opens her mouth for tea and food, so Xiulan only explained to her a few simple tasks.

Bringing the fruit cut by her mother to the table in the living room, Tingting saw her father and husband making tea in the study, she rolled her eyes and sat down on the empty seat beside Roy, "Second brother, what about you?" What are you doing all week?" She leaned on Roy's body like a bird, wanting to find out the progress between him and Luo Jie.

Roy forked a piece of apple, said while eating, "either stay at home and read a book, or wander around." He deliberately said it very boring, so that she would not be interested in it.

Regarding what happened in these six days, he didn't dare to recall or mention it at all, he was afraid that he would sink into that dark, endless gray world.

"Did you go out with Big Brother?" Tingting asked curiously.

"Yes, he invited me to a photography exhibition a few days ago, and introduced his colleagues to me." Roy responded casually, feeling that this matter was not enough to worry about.

"Other than that?" Don't mention the "flower arrangement" by a third person, what she wants to hear is what happened when the two were alone.

"We are all adults. Even if we live together, we have our own routines, so we seldom see each other."

Roy would tell such a lie because he hoped that Tingting would stop digging.

Tingting pouted and glared at him, "You liar!" She didn't believe that the two of them would live in peace, there was not even a spark, and Roy's eyes clearly said: "I have something on my mind." The four words.

Qin Xiulan saw this scene from the kitchen, and read to her: "Luo Tingting, don't bother your brother all the time, hurry up and set the dishes."

Tingting stood up reluctantly, "Got it!" She went to the dining table and started to prepare the tableware.

Ye Qingfeng came from the study at this time, and asked Roy who was alone in the living room: "Roy, would you like to come and make tea with us?" He vaguely felt the murderous aura coming from behind, he looked back and found Ting Ting was staring at him with a bad face.

"You seem to be idle!"

Hearing what his wife meant, Ye Qingfeng hurried to her side and snatched the bowls and chopsticks from her hand, "Wife, I'll help you, and you can make tea and rest instead."

"That's about the same." Tingting let out a big breath through her nose.

Seeing this, Roy smiled and teased him, "I never thought Ye Qingfeng, the all-powerful campus legend in school, would now be a member of PPT."

"It can't be helped, who told me that I'm the kind of "Aiduka died tragically", so don't blame me, Roy. "Ye Qingfeng begged him for mercy with his eyes.

Listening to Ye Qingfeng's not-so-"rotating" Taiwanese, Roy's eyes became more crooked with a smile.

Tingting didn't take the conversation between the two of them seriously, and interjected directly: "Second brother, tell me quickly." She returned to Roy, clung to his arm like a sticky candy.

Obviously the two live together, but the second brother came home first, what does this mean?Could it be that the two had quarreled?That's why the second brother looked depressed.

"Please spare me! Do you have to break the casserole and ask the end?" Roy frowned.

"Ye Qingfeng, take care of your wife."

Ye Qingfeng responded to him with a helpless expression.

"Brother~" Tingting shouted impatiently.

Unable to defeat her, Roy finally surrendered, "There are so many people here now, I'll tell you later..." Suddenly a voice made all the hairs on his body stand on end.

"Sorry, I'm late."

Luo Jie came in from the entrance with a big bag of drinks in his hand.

Tingting let go of Roy very simply, and ran towards Luo Jie, "Brother, why did you come back so late."

Luo Jie apologized, "I'm sorry I just have to work overtime this week." His eyes flashed past Roy quickly, as if ignoring his existence.

A chill ran from the top of Roy's head to his heels, and what Luo Jie said at that time jumped out of his mind: "I feel ashamed to have a brother like you. If you can't recover your sexual orientation, then you should never appear in front of me again."

He immediately turned his face away, not daring to look at Luo Jie at all, and quietly left the living room without saying a word.

As soon as 06:30 arrived, the whole family gathered at the dining table. Seeing that his mother was still busy in the kitchen, Roy got up and went in to check, "Mom, what are you still busy with? Come and have dinner together."

"Come on, this is specially prepared by mom for you. You have to eat it all." Xiulan put the chicken drumsticks in oyster sauce in the pot and showed them to him.

Staring at the shiny chicken drumsticks, Roy couldn't help admiring: "Wow~ it must be delicious." Chicken drumsticks in oyster sauce is his favorite dish, and his saliva drools just by the smell.

He hugged his mother from behind, "Mom, thank you for preparing so much food for me, thank you for your hard work!" He will remember the taste of this dinner well in his heart.

She didn't know how many years she hadn't been hugged by her son like this, Xiulan felt a little embarrassed, "Sanba! Why don't you hurry up and go out for dinner."

"Come on, let's go out together." Roy pushed his mother's shoulders from behind and led her out of the kitchen.

Pineapple and shrimp, Kyoto pork ribs, stir-fried fresh vegetables, beef scrambled eggs, steamed sea bass,,,, etc., the five-star state banquet dishes are mouth-watering. Everyone present is ready to eat with chopsticks, and wait for the mother to take a seat Finally, everyone took out their chopsticks to snatch the food.

"Mom, are you being too partial, the whole table is full of dishes that Second Brother likes to eat." Tingting complained dissatisfied.

"Luo Tingting, take a look at your own bowl. With so many dishes, be careful not to scare your husband." Luo Jie reminded her, don't lose her image when her husband is by her side.

"I like Tingting's fleshy ones. It's more comfortable to hold them this way." Ye Qingfeng jumped out to help his wife speak.

Tingting looked smug, "Look! Qingfeng said that, so I'm trying to gain weight." She said it as if she had to.

"That's really wronging you."

Hearing the topic of fat and thin being mentioned by her children, Xiulan glanced at her youngest son, and when she saw his thin cheeks, she clicked her tongue.

"Xiaoyi, you're so skinny that you're going to be blown away by the wind, come on! Eat more meat and see if you can grow some more." She gave him a piece of chicken leg.

"Thank you, Mom." Roy picked up the chicken leg and took a bite.

"That's right! Second brother, you look thinner than when you came back, did your elder brother abuse you!"

Hearing his wife's nonsense, Qingfeng hurriedly stuffed a shrimp ball into her mouth, "Tingting, don't you like this the most."

Tingting glared at him, "Ni'an!" This stupid husband, can't he hear that she said this intentionally to irritate elder brother?

From the very beginning, she felt that there was a strange atmosphere between the two of them. Not only did they not speak a word, they didn't even meet their eyes.

Looking at the two people who were ignoring each other, she suddenly opened her eyes wide, thinking that something might happen, maybe it was Roy who confessed to her elder brother.

"Luo Tingting, what are you talking about? How could I abuse Roy." Luo Jie smiled, and at this moment he finally set his sights on Roy.

It's just that after not seeing him for two days, Roy lost a lot of weight, and his face was even less angry.

He couldn't help asking in his heart: Roy, since you want to be with that man regardless of my stop, why do you make yourself look like this?

Luo Ruirong, who had been silent since the beginning, finally spoke, "Roy, do you have any plans for the next step?" The joyous atmosphere dropped to a low point in an instant.

Roy put down his chopsticks and responded with a duplicity: "It hasn't been decided yet."

When he heard the words that Luo Jie wanted him to relay from Jill, he knew that there was no room for negotiation between himself and Luo Jie, so he decided to return to the United States early.

"Dad, don't worry, Xiaoyi is also engaged in architectural design work in the United States. I think it should not be a problem for him to find another job in Taiwan based on his strength."

Roy was surprised that Luo Jie would speak for him, but when he looked up and saw the indifference in Luo Jie's eyes, his heart felt like a sauna.

He stared at Luo Jie and smiled faintly, Luo Jie, do you know?It's really cruel to me that you don't care about it.

"Roy, you are an adult, don't do anything that will worry your mother." Luo Ruirong reminded.

Roy made a vague response: "Well..."

"Husband, you are really serious. Don't mention such a serious matter at a family reunion. You want everyone to have indigestion." Qin Xiulan hurriedly interjected.

Tingting looked around at the dining table, "Mom, don't you prepare soup?" While her father was still nagging, she had already finished eating the food in the bowl.

"Ah! I forgot that the chicken soup is still in the electric pot." Qin Xiulan walked into the kitchen immediately.

After carefully bringing the whole pot of chicken soup to the table, she gave Roy a bowl of soup with a spoon, "Xiao Yi, come and drink some chicken soup to replenish your body."

Roy took the soup bowl with both hands, picked it up and enjoyed it

.

"Be careful, the soup is very hot."

When his mother yelled, Roy shook his hands in fright, and the hot soup in the bowl suddenly spilled on his hands. He let go of his hand reflexively, and as a result, the whole bowl of hot soup spilled on his chest.

"Ah~"

Tingting's scream came from beside his ear, and a hot and tingling sensation spread from Roy's chest, and he frowned slightly.

"Xiaoyi, go to the bathroom and take off your clothes, and rinse the burnt area with cold water." Qin Xiulan said anxiously.

Seeing his mother and Tingting pale with fright, Roy comforted them, "I'm fine, don't worry too much." He got up and walked to the bathroom.

"Really, what are you doing shouting that? If you hadn't shouted, Roy wouldn't have been burned." Luo Ruirong scolded his wife.

Qin Xiulan kept silent, she only cared about whether her son was seriously injured or not.

"Things have happened, is it useful to talk about it now?" Luo Jie spoke for his mother.

"Mom, I'm going to see my second brother."

"Wait a minute!" Qin Xiulan didn't have time to stop Tingting, and saw her rushing out of the restaurant.

"Luo Jie, go to the refrigerator and get some scald medicine for Xiao Yi to rub, and by the way, tell Tingting to go upstairs to get a piece of Qingfeng clothes for Xiao Yi to change into."

"Um."

Luo Jie got up and went to get the medicine.

Standing in front of the bathroom and waiting for a while, seeing Roy walking out of the bathroom with his upper body naked, Tingting asked with concern: "Second brother, are you okay! Do you want to go to the hospital?"

Roy smiled and said, "I don't think it's serious enough to go to the hospital. I just washed it with cold water and it's fine now." To be honest, he still felt a little tingling in his chest, but he didn't want everyone to worry.

Luo Jie then also came to the bathroom door, but when he saw Roy, his face changed drastically, "Luo Tingting, take it." He handed her the scald medicine with a straight face.

Tingting reached out and took the medicine jar.

Looking at Luo Jie with a livid face and Roy who avoided Luo Jie's gaze, the woman's sixth sense told her that a big storm was about to fall on them both.
