Gold Mediator [Quick Transmigration]
Chapter 60
???? The scene was very embarrassing for a while, and the air wanted to be silent after hearing it.
???? Hua Baihe never expected that someone would dare to break into her room casually. These days, the nanny guarding the door has followed her words to the extreme. She is afraid that anyone who doesn't have eyes will offend her, and the life of the entire Xue family will be disturbed. better off.
????result……
???? Was this Jiang Xue breaking through the secret she had been hiding for so long?
???? Hua Baihe secretly breathed a sigh of relief while feeling that he couldn't hold back his old face.
???? This classmate Jiang looks like a girl from a well-educated big family. Although what the system said last time made her doubt Jiang Xue's sexual orientation, Hua Baihe is still willing to believe in herself and the system's vision of people.
???? Good girl Jiang Xue, she probably wouldn't know what she was holding.
???? So, she pretended to be calm and threw the thing in her hand that was stained with an unknown liquid to the back of her head. With a soft 'boom', Hua Baihe secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and pretended to be angry:
???? "Who let you in?"
????Jiang Xue never expected that she could see such an exciting scene. She was shocked by Xue Ling's 'unknown' side for a while.
???? But soon, she came to her senses, took another step towards the door calmly, quickly closed the door with her backhand, and came to the bed.
???? The shadow fell from the top of his head, Hua Baihe watched Jiang Xue put his hands on the edge of his bed, and leaned over, with a condescending meaning.
???? When Hua Baihe faintly sensed an aura coming from the other party, Jiang Xue spoke, using the soft, low voice before, with some hesitation in her words:
???? "Sorry, Sister Ling, the nanny said you were taking a nap. I was planning to wait at the door, but suddenly I heard a voice calling for help from inside. I thought it was the situation last time, but I didn't expect... "
???? Hua Baihe didn't really want to know what the 'sound like a distress call' she heard was.
???? Her gaze couldn't help wandering.
???? When she heard Jiang Xue's pause, she thought that the topic had stopped there, but it might as well be that the other party was talking, and slowly moved closer to her, and was already very close to her during the radio.
???? Hua Baihe was stunned in doubt, and found that Jiang Xue's voice was much lower when she spoke again, hoarse and hard to distinguish:
???? "Unexpectedly, I misunderstood."
???? Then she asked again: "Sister Ling, do you need help?"
???? Hua Baihe sensed that something was wrong, and when she looked up, she happened to bump into the dark light in her eyes.
????"you……"
???? The man covered by the quilt only showed a slightly pale face, as if he had lacked blood all year round, with a pointed chin, pale lips, and only a pair of eyes that could tell the owner's temperament.
???? Hei Yaoyao's eyeballs, but the corners of the eyes are drooping. He is obviously a proud and arrogant person, but when the lines fall, he turns into a cute and pitiful person.
???? Especially from the perspective of looking at yourself from the bottom up, it seems that you are waiting for someone to pity you, and you look forward to it with a bit of eagerness. sinful thoughts.
????Jiang Xue realized that if she continued to read, she would not be able to resist the Fa-rectification on the spot. She paused for a while, and then she suddenly backed away.
???? Standing still in front of the bed again, she seemed to understand nothing, and also seemed to know everything that happened just now, looked at the expression on Xue Ling's face, and repeated her own words:
???? "Do you need help, Sister Ling?"
???? Hua Baihe: "..."
???? Help?
????How to help?
???? The relationship between her and this child was only a few encounters, and it took a stranger to hold... um... to help her solve her needs. How much heart does this have to do?
???? The aggression revealed by the other party just now has been completely absorbed, like an illusion that has passed by in a flash.
???? Hua Baihe met her gaze, and while secretly sizing up this person, he tensed up his avatar as if nothing had happened: "No, next time you enter my room, remember to knock on the door."
???? It's one thing to play by yourself, but it's another embarrassment to be broken by others.
???? As I said before, Hua Baihe has no interest in Jiang Xue, a kid, and she has no perverted idea of dragging a generation of talented girls into depravity. Her attitude towards this person has always been:
???? You walk your Yangguan Road, I cross my single-plank bridge.
???? After all, they are born out of the ordinary.
???? Hearing her answer, Jiang Xue subconsciously raised her hand to help her glasses, so as to block the chaotic emotions in her eyes at the moment, but she didn't remember until her fingertips touched the bridge of her nose. ——
???? Every time she came to Xue's house, she would take off her glasses and replace them with invisible lenses, or she would not wear them at all.
???? Thinking of this, she closed her eyes until the blood churning in her heart cooled down again, then opened her eyes and smiled at Hua Baihe, then walked around the end of the bed and walked to the other side of the bed.
???? Picking up the little pink toy from the ground, she walked to the indoor bathroom without changing her expression. When she was about to wash the thing, Jiang Xue looked at the size of the thing and thought:
???? This is too thin.
???? I'm afraid I can't satisfy that guy outside, right?
???? She thought of the many new products purchased at her home, and her mind was running wild for a while. Only the clothes on the leather bag were tightly hung. After cleaning and wiping the things, she walked out and looked at the person on the bed. One delivery:
???? "I remember that there is a special detergent for this one, but I'm not familiar with it. It's not easy to mess with your things, so I can only do this temporarily."
???? Hua Baihe looked at the things in her hand, it didn't matter if she picked it up, or didn't pick it up.
????There is only one sentence left in my mind:
???? How do you do this?
???? She glanced at Jiang Xue, then at the thing in her hand, feeling as if she had discovered some secret.
???? Unexpectedly, a talented woman from the dignified Jiang family, who looks like a perfect body, unexpectedly secretly...
???? But after today, this matter will probably become a tacit affair between the two of them. Hua Baihe thinks that Jiang Xue will not want to meet him very much in the future.
???? That's fine, no third person will know about the black history.
???? She made a guess in her mind that she thought was the most correct, and dug out another box from the bed, which was specially placed for that object, and there were specially prepared detergents and disinfectants in it.
???? Just when Jiang Xue raised her hand to take it, thinking that she was really planning to ask her to help clean it and reinstall it, she heard the other party say lightly:
???? "No, just throw this box away. I was just curious, but I found that the size doesn't match me."
???? Jiang Xue: "..."
???? For a while, she almost blurted out, 'What kind of mismatch is that? '
???? It's so hard to swallow it.
???? Only the fundus of the eyes was almost filled with blood.
???? In order to cover up her emotions, Jiang Xue could only pretend to do what Hua Baihe said, looked at the thing that had just been unpacked and used once, and threw it into the box without changing expression, and listened again Following the command of the other party, he took out an environmental protection bag from the drawer of the bookcase, so that when he took the box out to throw it away, no one would know what was inside.
???? Hearing the rustling sound of tidying up, Hua Baihe's face was calm, but his heart was bleeding:
????Actually, this gadget is quite suitable for me, the effect is excellent, and most importantly, it can be like a perpetual motion machine, as long as there is electricity, it can last infinitely, and it is not as easy to exhaust as human power.
???? She almost loves this baby.
????However……
???? But this little gadget was born at an untimely time!
???? She tried her best to take her gaze away from the other person, and secretly bit the handkerchief in her heart: I must go to the store to buy a similar model in two days!
????Jiang Xue believed her false impression of 'the first taste is nothing but this', and when she was about to leave with her things, she thought about it, and turned her head and said to Hua Baihe:
???? "By the way, Sister Ling, I might come to visit with my family during the Chinese New Year. After Liu Ying heard about this, she also said that she wanted to come with her, is that okay?"
???? Hua Baihe was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect that she would suddenly mention this person, and she suddenly lost interest. She didn't want him to come over at first, but...
???? Making money is important.
???? She secretly said to herself.
???? "Okay, by the way, let her remember to bring her girlfriend with her."
???? After saying this, Hua Baihe wanted to applaud himself for being witty!
???? In this case, even if the other party has some unruly thoughts about him, there is no way that person will be bold enough to do anything against him with the supervision of his wife.
????Jiang Xue waited for a long time, and finally waited for this opportunity to explain to Hua Baihe face to face.
????God knows how long she held it back!
???? She let out a sigh of relief, and turned sideways from the door, barely holding on to the careless expression on her face, as if slightly surprised, lightly raised half of her eyebrows:
???? "She has a girlfriend?"
???? Jiang Xue said firmly: "Impossible, she has been single for more than 20 years, everyone knows."
????I don't know why, but when she heard her say 'single for more than 20 years', Hua Baihe always felt that Jiang Xue was gnashing her teeth inexplicably.
????After saying this, Jiang Xue breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that Xue Ling should believe that she has such a hard-core 'friend' to help her speak this time, right?
???? Unexpectedly, after waiting for a long time, she only got sympathy from the other party's eyes.
???? The translation is:
???? I didn't expect you to have such a good relationship with Liu Ying. She even kept you a secret. How pitiful.
???? Jiang Xue: "..."
???? Jiang Xue: "???"
???? Hua Baihe didn't realize that the sympathy in his eyes was too obvious. He couldn't explain Jiang Xue's appearance for a long time, so he could only say:
???? "Hey...you can find out by looking at her latest Weibo."
???? Even the idea of writing an 18r book for a partner can come up, Hua Baihe secretly thought, don't make yourself a single person all of a sudden.
????Jiang Xue is determined to wash away the grievance of "leaving the group" for her single dog today. She vowed to show her determination to join the group. Her thoughts turned so fast that almost Hua Baihe replied:
???? "She told me about this when she first posted on Weibo. Her book was given to a person she had a crush on for a long time. She hasn't caught up with her yet. Where did she get it from?"
???? Hua Baihe was almost moved by her spirit of 'anxiety for friends'.
???? Then I was shocked by the point of the words:
???? What kind of genius brain does this have to come up with the operation of sending 18r articles to the crush?
???? The complexity on her face changed again and again, and in the end she could only pinch her nose dryly and say:
????"Fine."
????Since it was Jiang Xue who said there was no match, she reluctantly believed it.
????Jiang Xue was afraid that her explanation was not clear enough, so she added: "I grew up with Liu Ying, and I know best if she has a relationship."
???? Hua Baihe was amused by her resolute attitude of interceding for her friend, and said with a smile:
???? "If you want to say that you don't have a date, maybe I believe it. After all, you are so good-looking, you don't look like a puppy love at first glance. As for Liuying, I still have to meet to know."
After finishing speaking, she glanced at the bag in Jiang Xue's hand, cleared her throat, and added:
???? "Although things went wrong today, but you are kind after all, I still have to thank you."
???? Hua Baihe felt that what she said was the most appropriate expression in such an embarrassing situation. Sure enough, although Jiang Xue looked a little stiff, she finally nodded, turned the doorknob, and did not forget to help her again after walking out. Close the door.
???? "Phew, I'm scared to death. If this happens a few times in the future, I'm really afraid that I will become sexually frigid."
???? After Hua Baihe was so frightened just now, all her attention was devoted to dealing with Jiang Xue. At this moment, she was finally the only one left in the room, and she immediately lay back on the bed regardless of her image.
???? Then, he wrapped his little quilt tightly in distress.
????...
???? Outside the door.
???? Jiang Xue carried the bag of things and stood at the door of Xue Ling's room for a while.
???? Her eyes were slightly closed, and she was sorting out the emotions in her heart.
????The other party's words were still echoing in her ears before she went out, so she couldn't help asking herself:
???? Are you really kind?
????Ah.
???? She inhaled and exhaled slowly, and after going back and forth several times, she finally calmed down her mind.
???? Don't worry, now is not the most suitable time.
???? There are guests in the hall outside the door, and the nanny will come back at any time. I can lay the groundwork today to let the other party know that 'Liuying' has no partner. My wish has been fulfilled. As for more...
???? She still needs to wait for a good opportunity.
???? She was looking forward to it so much, when the other party found out that she and Liu Ying were the same person, the surprise appeared on her face——
???? In that case, the taste is the best.
???? "Miss Jiang?"
???? A voice sounded tentatively from the side.
???? Jiang Xue suddenly opened her eyes, and a cold light appeared in her eyes.
???? The nanny was taken aback by her cold appearance. She didn't know what was wrong with the young lady of the Jiang family.
???? Immediately, a gentle smile appeared on Jiang Xue's face: "Auntie, Sister Ling woke up once just now and wanted to call someone in. I saw that you were not there, so I went in to help. Now she has gone back to sleep down."
????The nanny breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good."
???? No wonder, she thought, Miss Jiang was empty-handed before she left, so how could she be carrying a bag in the blink of an eye.
???? Jiang Xue smiled at her and walked away.
???? Until the elders of the Jiang family finished chatting with the Xue family, checked the time, offered to leave, and took her out.
???? Her father, Jiang Gan, was sharp-eyed. He noticed that she was carrying a bag in her hand, and asked casually:
???? "Yo, who gave you this?"
???? Jiang Xue squeezed the mouth of the bag calmly, hugged her in her arms, and smiled at her father: "Sister Ling gave it to you."
???? Jiang Gan was a little surprised, recalling the person who was said to have ruined his talent in a car accident when he was a teenager, the evaluation of Xue Ling in the circle was instantly in his mind.
????Perverse, capricious, lost talent, unbearable talent.
???? He was very surprised that his daughter had a good relationship with such a person, and even got a gift from her: "When did you have friendship with her?"
???? Jiang Xue just laughed and didn't speak.
???? He originally wanted to persuade, but suddenly remembered that his child has always been very assertive. Although he has all kinds of playmates around him, he has never lowered his demands on himself. In the eyes of adults, he is really a 'out Silt but not stained' good boy.
???? So the words came to my lips, and finally became: "You just know what you know."
???? Jiang Xue nodded, followed her father around the path in the courtyard, and walked towards her home.
????...
???? There is a reason why she can come to visit frequently.
????The community where Xue Ling's family is located is an old courtyard in the capital.
????The Xue family was assigned a house in the 70s. Xue Cheng’s brothers and sisters are also very close to this community. On weekdays, everyone would visit each other. After dinner, it is common to go to the brother’s house for tea. .
???? At the same time, many other families enjoying state subsidies, such as the Jiang family where Jiang Xue lived, and the Lin family where Lin Wanxiu lived, all lived in such old courtyards.
????The community looks short from the outside, and the color is still dark brick red, but the decoration inside is quite extraordinary. People who know how to look at the little brother standing guard at the door can naturally guess who lives inside.
???? As for other outsiders, they just regard this place as an ordinary residential area.
???? On weekdays, many professors ride second-hand bicycles from home and run out in the morning breeze. No one can see that this ordinary old man and old lady hide a piece of national history.
????Now that the Chinese New Year is approaching, there is a regulation that fireworks and firecrackers are not allowed in the fifth ring road of the capital, but the enthusiasm for the Chinese New Year has not diminished in every household in the old alleys of the capital.
???? Especially when it comes to Spring Festival couplets that can show off their literary talents, many old professors cheerfully picked up brushes in their study rooms, flying dragons and phoenixes on the red paper, writing with spirit.
???? After the juniors in the family have posted their Spring Festival couplets, they will take a look around the houses in the corridor, secretly considering which one will be the best.
????The community neighborhood committee will also organize some competitions and activities, or couplet competitions, or do some New Year poems, and then organize the children and the elderly to make dumplings together, which is very lively.
???? This year, all the old men in the Jiang family have retired. Taking advantage of the Chinese New Year, to examine the characters of the younger generation. Not long after Jiang Xue came home, she was arrested for drinking tea and appreciating articles. She couldn't relax at all. .
????When she was busy with those old treasures at home, she couldn't help secretly heaving a sigh of relief:
???? Fortunately, I didn't do it a few days ago.
???? Otherwise, the trace of eating and wiping and running away is really unclear.
????Compared to the Jiang family's wholehearted preparation for the excitement of the New Year's Eve, the Xue family originally had this in mind. However, when Xue He and the others were discussing the unified purchase of new year's goods, Xue Cheng's family was not peaceful.
???? For no other reason, Xue Jiming's relationship was discovered.
???? He hid it very well at first, and barely sent voices or videos with Zhao He under the noses of his parents - not trying to hide it, but just looking for a mature time.
???? As a result, one day, when he was taking a shower in the bathroom at night, his phone rang.
???? At that time, his mother, Liu Lu, was tidying up the closet in his room. She was kind to her son, and she was the type who took care of everything. Xue Jiming had to approve the color of his socks since he was a child, and he almost never pretended to be a nanny. and hands of servants.
???? When she saw the 'little lotus' ringing on the phone, she glanced at it by the way. At first, she just felt strange, how strange this nickname looked.
????Then the phone rang twice again. Seeing that her son wouldn't come out for a while, she wanted to answer it and ask the other party to call later——
???? As a result, the female voice over there said carefully: "Okay, okay, Auntie, sorry to disturb you."
????Things are still operating normally.
???? However, after Xue Jiming came out of the shower, the situation began to take a turn for the worse.
???? "Mom, I thought I heard the phone ringing just now. Someone called me?" Xue Jiming wiped his hair with a goose yellow towel, and stepped out of the bathroom with slippers on.
????Liu Lu was brought up by him, and said a lot: "It's a girl, called 'Little Lotus' or something, Jiming, you can't joke like this with your classmates, a girl's reputation is very important."
???? Xue Jiming returned to the room at an instant speed, and at the same time retorted: "It's not a classmate, it's my girlfriend."
????Since they have been discovered, the correct way is to admit it directly!
???? Xue Jiming thought very responsibly.
???? However, Liu Lu's parents, who suddenly discovered the nicknames of their son and daughter-in-law: "..."
???? She was taken aback by the shocking news, and rushed into his room after a while: "Girlfriend? What girlfriend? Whose family is in the capital? Do the other's parents know? What does her family do?"
????A series of questions made Xue Jiming stunned.
???? He reacted for a long time before he said: "I didn't ask carefully what does her family do, but she is not from the capital, and her hometown seems to be in Sun County next door."
???? Where is Sun County?
???? If one day, the capital is willing to expand the [-]th Ring Road to radiate the surrounding backward and poor areas, maybe this place will barely be considered.
????Liu Lu almost fainted after hearing this, and stopped asking him about Zhao He's information. In her mind, she had already sentenced the relationship to death.
???? "No! Absolutely not!"
Seeing her categorical denial, Xue Jiming was no longer busy pressing the phone, but looked at his mother suspiciously: "Mom, you haven't heard me tell you what kind of person she is, why are you in such a hurry Come to a conclusion?"
???? Is this still worth listening to?
???? Liu Lu refused to accept it all over her face.
???? "No way, no way."
???? Xue Jiming was a little annoyed by her completely unreasonable, nonsensical attitude, and said bluntly: "If I must continue, if I tell you, I even plan to marry her in the future?"
????What?
???? He actually thought of getting married?
???? Under the shock of her son marrying a village Cinderella, Liu Lu even forgot her usual good manners, and said earnestly: "Mom married into the Xue family with great difficulty, not for you to marry such a woman! "
???? "Her family doesn't deserve you at all."
???? It is not worthy of the origin and packaging that I have worked so hard to pick out for you.
???? Xue Jiming's eyes showed a bit of astonishment.
????Maybe Liu Lu has already sensed his determination, so Liu Lu said such words directly, but this has always been something she was ashamed to mention in this family, after all...
???? Not glorious.
???? After the voice fell, she felt a little guilty under the gaze of her son, as if she had revealed her most unbearable side by herself, and said to the other party:
???? You have nothing to criticize me, because everything about you is paid for by my hard work.
???? You are also an accomplice, so don't look at me with such eyes.
???? Xue Jiming had countless words stuck in his throat, but as a son of man, he couldn't say a single word.
???? He just looked at Liu Lu in disbelief, with some hurt in his eyes.
????Suddenly, there was a chuckle from somewhere.
???? The mother and son, who were stalemate in silence, turned their heads and saw the girl who came out to pour water. Her thin body was sitting on a black wheelchair, which was highlighted by the color and became even thinner.
???? The white paper cup in her hand, I don't know which one is whiter than her face.
???? She looked so weak, but she stopped her spine like a sharp dagger, piercing the unsightly scene in front of her.
???? She didn't say a word, just raised her hand and drank the water in the paper cup, then turned around and left while operating the wheelchair.
???? However, the laugh she left was like a slap on Liu Lu's face with her raised hand, which made her feel hot and painful.
???? It seems to be asking her:
???? It turns out that you also know that you have exhausted all your efforts to win all of this.
???? I also want to remind her that what she has done is not unknown, and the victim has been watching her here.
???? That was the original sin she couldn't erase.
???? Liu Lu couldn't hold on any longer, turned around and returned to her room in a hurry, leaving only one sentence: "In short, you are not allowed to have any contact with that girl again. I will tell your father about it, and neither will he." Support you."
???? If Xue Cheng's approval is lost, Zhao He will never be able to step into Xue's house for the rest of his life.
???? Xue Jiming has always understood this truth.
???? He watched his mother's figure disappear in front of him, stood in the room, looked at the long corridor in front of him, and felt anxious for a while.
???? "Squeak -" sound.
???? The friction sound of the wheels suddenly braking caught his attention.
???? Xue Jiming froze for a moment, quickly put down his phone, and rushed towards the living room. At the same time, he heard the anxious voices of the servants around him, "Miss!", "Miss, are you okay?"
???? Fortunately, the man didn't fall too hard. He just waved his hand to the people around him. When he was carried into the wheelchair again, he thought of something and glanced at him:
???? "Xue Cheng, you don't have to worry."
???? She said this in a very light tone.
???? But coupled with the picture of her being carried back into the wheelchair with all her hands and feet, especially the thin legs that are powerlessly hanging on the ground, it seems very unconvincing.
???? Xue Jiming squeezed his fist beside him, and subconsciously said, "I'm sorry."
???? But as soon as the words came out, he felt that it was too pale.
???? He stood three feet away, with an embarrassed expression on his face, until he saw the man in a daze, and then waved to him, just like before in front of the coffee shop.
???? Xue Jiming asked again: "Does it hurt?"
????The car accident that year, and the wrestling just now, must have been very painful.
???? Hua Baihe was cared for by this cheap brother, and she felt warm in her heart. She only frowned at him, shook her head, and said nothing. No one knew that she was actually busy arguing with the system that hadn't appeared for a long time.
????At this moment, the system is mocking Hua Baihe in his mind:
???? "Keep drifting, old driver."
???? Hua Baihe threatened: "It seems that you want me to show you your true strength, okay, see you in bed later."
???? The laughter of the system stopped abruptly.
????At the same time, Xue Jiming watched her being sent back to the room by the nanny, looked at her back, and suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart.
He knew that no one else could help him about his feelings. Although he didn't know what Xue Ling was going to do, he decided to confess directly to Xue Cheng during the day tomorrow.
???? Xue Jiming spent the whole night thinking about how to persuade Xue Cheng the next day, tossing and turning all night.
????...
???? The next day, on the breakfast table.
???? Xue Cheng was watching foreign scientific research results with a tablet, eating breakfast with two minds, while the TV in the background was still showing news from international channels.
???? Until Liu Lu made the first move.
????Because Xue Cheng devoted himself to scientific research, it is common for him not to go home for a few months after the project is completed. Fortunately, this year’s Chinese New Year caught up with the good time, and the handover coincided with the handover period between the new project and the old project. Most of them are academic forums and salons, as well as participating in seminars at home and abroad.
It was already three o'clock in the middle of the night when Xue Cheng came back last night. Because he didn't want to disturb his wife's sleep, he just made do with the whole night in the study, and it was only now that he had the opportunity to communicate with his family.
???? Liu Lu cleared her throat, and was about to start with other topics. Just as she was about to ask him if he was busy recently, a voice suddenly sounded from the opposite side:
????"dad!"
???? It was Xue Jiming who spoke.
???? Hua Baihe never imagined that Xue Jiming would be able to steal the conversation just by taking an extra sip of oatmeal, with a sense of sight that he was eager to confess his relationship with his parents.
???? The system frantically urged her to die in her mind:
???? "What time is it! Can you put down the spoon first!"
???? Hua Baihe quickly stuffed an extra mouthful into her mouth, after all, she was afraid that if she finished this mouthful, she would have nothing to eat today.
???? Xue Jiming successfully attracted Xue Cheng's attention. He moved his eyes away from the tablet, turned off the conjecture without any experimental progress, and looked up:
????"Um?"
???? "I have something to say."
???? Xue Jiming was about to speak, but a voice next to him grabbed Bai.
???? Everyone's eyes successfully shifted to the thinnest person present.
???? Xue Cheng raised his hand to show his younger son a stop gesture, looked at Hua Baihe with probing eyes, and asked:
????"what do you want to say?"
???? This is really strange, people who have always been dismissive of family topics, now want to take the initiative to announce something.
???? Xue Cheng thought that she was recently moved by the harmonious atmosphere at home, and the hostility in her body was dissipated. After all, the family has been peaceful for a long time recently.
???? But the facts quickly proved that the head of the Xue family was too naive.
???? Hua Baihe wiped his mouth with a tissue, looked up at him, and said, as if to say 'I'm done eating':
???? "I'm gay."
????Compared to the background of same-sex marriage in the previous world, although Huaguo in this world has retained many good traditions, it has not let go of marriage. When foreign countries clamored for the passage of same-sex marriage, domestic This situation is still a minority.
???? After all, in the Song Dynasty, Cheng Zhu Neo-Confucianism had developed to the point of "preserving the principles of nature and destroying human desires". Although the current world has corrected a lot of excessive development of Confucianism, in general, it is still not let go too open.
????As soon as Hua Baihe's words came out, everyone at the dinner table fell silent.
???? Xue Cheng thought he hadn't heard clearly, so he paused for a long time with chopsticks, and asked:
???? "What did you just say?"
???? Is he getting tinnitus from old age?
???? Hua Baihe opened his mouth, and Xue Jiming next to him seemed to have suddenly realized something. He didn't know where the courage came from, and suddenly raised his hand to cover her mouth, and said quickly to Xue Cheng:
???? "No, Dad, my sister is talking nonsense. She just wants to help me, because I am with a female classmate in school. She is afraid that you will disagree, so she said that on purpose."
???? Hua Baihe whose mouth was covered: "...Hmmm?"
????no!
???? Didi, you think too much, I just want to inform them, I am not talking nonsense!
???? After such a short time, Xue Cheng had already gone through that sentence several times in his mind, and his brain, no matter how dull, had already reacted. He waved his hand to Xue Jiming, "Let go of her—— Xue Ling, what you said just now, you can say it again."
???? Xue Jiming quickly winked at the people around him, pushed Hua Baihe's wheelchair away from the dining table, and then took two steps forward to block his father's anger:
???? "Dad, calm down, calm down, my sister is talking nonsense."
???? "No, I'm telling you seriously, I will never take back what I said today." Hua Baihe supported the wheelchair, was pushed quickly by the servants, and his speed of replying was not slow.
???? Xue Jiming had a headache and turned his head to perfunctory her: "Yes, yes, you are serious."
???? "Xue Ling! You put her down for me—you have the ability to come back to me. If I don't drive you out of the house today, my name will be reversed..."
???? "Dad, calm down! Calm down! You are old, pay attention to your blood pressure, don't be angry, you only get together if you are destined to get together in life, whoever you want to be angry with yourself, don't you think so?" In front of this.
???? Liu Lu who was watching: "..."
???? She didn't quite understand, why did the situation suddenly develop into this?
???? Especially the youngest son, who was still on the sidelines and added: "Dad, really, it's because I want to be with a female classmate that my sister--"
???? "I don't care what kind of girlfriend you are, whoever you love, you pull that rebellious Xue Ling out!"
???? "Okay, then I will take it as your agreement, Dad, I will bring her back during the Chinese New Year—oh, my sister is just saying it casually, don't compete with her for an injury."
????...
???? Within a few days, the news about the Xue family spread throughout the community.
???? "Do you know? That Xue Ling made a new joke again, hey, I really don't mind embarrassing the Xue family."
???? "Hey, what can I do? You don't know about their family's situation? Isn't she just running around all day to get mad at Old Cheng?"
???? "If I want to have such a daughter, I would have strangled to death a long time ago."
???? "I don't know who brought her here..."
???? Gossips are flying all over the sky. When Lin Wanxiu came to Jiang's house, she secretly dragged Jiang Xue to talk about this in the room, and by the way gossip:
???? "Hey, she really has the courage to admit this directly. Thinking about it this way, her future partner is quite lucky..."
???? Can be with such a courageous person.
???? Lin Wanxiu smacked her lips: "I actually feel a little envious of her future partner?"
????Although she and her boyfriend are in the same family, that's it. Neither of them can say that there are no ups and downs in their relationship. For those minority groups, they must have more problems than her.
???? But Xue Ling cleared some obstacles first, which she still admires very much.
????Then, she heard the people around her smile, and then suddenly corrected her expression, and said to her:
???? "Well, you can start to envy."
????Lin Wanxiu: "...???"
???? "Does this have anything to do with you?" She asked incredulously.
???? "I am her future object." Jiang Xue said bluntly.
???? The two chatted in the corner of the living room. At that time, there were other peers chatting. Before Lin Wanxiu could react, she suddenly found the living room quiet.
???? It turned out that when everyone happened to be quiet just now, they heard her gossip.
???? When she was still in distress, she suddenly saw the person next to her say frankly to the group of partners with different expressions:
???? "You can start to envy me."
???? Hua Baihe never expected that someone would dare to break into her room casually. These days, the nanny guarding the door has followed her words to the extreme. She is afraid that anyone who doesn't have eyes will offend her, and the life of the entire Xue family will be disturbed. better off.
????result……
???? Was this Jiang Xue breaking through the secret she had been hiding for so long?
???? Hua Baihe secretly breathed a sigh of relief while feeling that he couldn't hold back his old face.
???? This classmate Jiang looks like a girl from a well-educated big family. Although what the system said last time made her doubt Jiang Xue's sexual orientation, Hua Baihe is still willing to believe in herself and the system's vision of people.
???? Good girl Jiang Xue, she probably wouldn't know what she was holding.
???? So, she pretended to be calm and threw the thing in her hand that was stained with an unknown liquid to the back of her head. With a soft 'boom', Hua Baihe secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and pretended to be angry:
???? "Who let you in?"
????Jiang Xue never expected that she could see such an exciting scene. She was shocked by Xue Ling's 'unknown' side for a while.
???? But soon, she came to her senses, took another step towards the door calmly, quickly closed the door with her backhand, and came to the bed.
???? The shadow fell from the top of his head, Hua Baihe watched Jiang Xue put his hands on the edge of his bed, and leaned over, with a condescending meaning.
???? When Hua Baihe faintly sensed an aura coming from the other party, Jiang Xue spoke, using the soft, low voice before, with some hesitation in her words:
???? "Sorry, Sister Ling, the nanny said you were taking a nap. I was planning to wait at the door, but suddenly I heard a voice calling for help from inside. I thought it was the situation last time, but I didn't expect... "
???? Hua Baihe didn't really want to know what the 'sound like a distress call' she heard was.
???? Her gaze couldn't help wandering.
???? When she heard Jiang Xue's pause, she thought that the topic had stopped there, but it might as well be that the other party was talking, and slowly moved closer to her, and was already very close to her during the radio.
???? Hua Baihe was stunned in doubt, and found that Jiang Xue's voice was much lower when she spoke again, hoarse and hard to distinguish:
???? "Unexpectedly, I misunderstood."
???? Then she asked again: "Sister Ling, do you need help?"
???? Hua Baihe sensed that something was wrong, and when she looked up, she happened to bump into the dark light in her eyes.
????"you……"
???? The man covered by the quilt only showed a slightly pale face, as if he had lacked blood all year round, with a pointed chin, pale lips, and only a pair of eyes that could tell the owner's temperament.
???? Hei Yaoyao's eyeballs, but the corners of the eyes are drooping. He is obviously a proud and arrogant person, but when the lines fall, he turns into a cute and pitiful person.
???? Especially from the perspective of looking at yourself from the bottom up, it seems that you are waiting for someone to pity you, and you look forward to it with a bit of eagerness. sinful thoughts.
????Jiang Xue realized that if she continued to read, she would not be able to resist the Fa-rectification on the spot. She paused for a while, and then she suddenly backed away.
???? Standing still in front of the bed again, she seemed to understand nothing, and also seemed to know everything that happened just now, looked at the expression on Xue Ling's face, and repeated her own words:
???? "Do you need help, Sister Ling?"
???? Hua Baihe: "..."
???? Help?
????How to help?
???? The relationship between her and this child was only a few encounters, and it took a stranger to hold... um... to help her solve her needs. How much heart does this have to do?
???? The aggression revealed by the other party just now has been completely absorbed, like an illusion that has passed by in a flash.
???? Hua Baihe met her gaze, and while secretly sizing up this person, he tensed up his avatar as if nothing had happened: "No, next time you enter my room, remember to knock on the door."
???? It's one thing to play by yourself, but it's another embarrassment to be broken by others.
???? As I said before, Hua Baihe has no interest in Jiang Xue, a kid, and she has no perverted idea of dragging a generation of talented girls into depravity. Her attitude towards this person has always been:
???? You walk your Yangguan Road, I cross my single-plank bridge.
???? After all, they are born out of the ordinary.
???? Hearing her answer, Jiang Xue subconsciously raised her hand to help her glasses, so as to block the chaotic emotions in her eyes at the moment, but she didn't remember until her fingertips touched the bridge of her nose. ——
???? Every time she came to Xue's house, she would take off her glasses and replace them with invisible lenses, or she would not wear them at all.
???? Thinking of this, she closed her eyes until the blood churning in her heart cooled down again, then opened her eyes and smiled at Hua Baihe, then walked around the end of the bed and walked to the other side of the bed.
???? Picking up the little pink toy from the ground, she walked to the indoor bathroom without changing her expression. When she was about to wash the thing, Jiang Xue looked at the size of the thing and thought:
???? This is too thin.
???? I'm afraid I can't satisfy that guy outside, right?
???? She thought of the many new products purchased at her home, and her mind was running wild for a while. Only the clothes on the leather bag were tightly hung. After cleaning and wiping the things, she walked out and looked at the person on the bed. One delivery:
???? "I remember that there is a special detergent for this one, but I'm not familiar with it. It's not easy to mess with your things, so I can only do this temporarily."
???? Hua Baihe looked at the things in her hand, it didn't matter if she picked it up, or didn't pick it up.
????There is only one sentence left in my mind:
???? How do you do this?
???? She glanced at Jiang Xue, then at the thing in her hand, feeling as if she had discovered some secret.
???? Unexpectedly, a talented woman from the dignified Jiang family, who looks like a perfect body, unexpectedly secretly...
???? But after today, this matter will probably become a tacit affair between the two of them. Hua Baihe thinks that Jiang Xue will not want to meet him very much in the future.
???? That's fine, no third person will know about the black history.
???? She made a guess in her mind that she thought was the most correct, and dug out another box from the bed, which was specially placed for that object, and there were specially prepared detergents and disinfectants in it.
???? Just when Jiang Xue raised her hand to take it, thinking that she was really planning to ask her to help clean it and reinstall it, she heard the other party say lightly:
???? "No, just throw this box away. I was just curious, but I found that the size doesn't match me."
???? Jiang Xue: "..."
???? For a while, she almost blurted out, 'What kind of mismatch is that? '
???? It's so hard to swallow it.
???? Only the fundus of the eyes was almost filled with blood.
???? In order to cover up her emotions, Jiang Xue could only pretend to do what Hua Baihe said, looked at the thing that had just been unpacked and used once, and threw it into the box without changing expression, and listened again Following the command of the other party, he took out an environmental protection bag from the drawer of the bookcase, so that when he took the box out to throw it away, no one would know what was inside.
???? Hearing the rustling sound of tidying up, Hua Baihe's face was calm, but his heart was bleeding:
????Actually, this gadget is quite suitable for me, the effect is excellent, and most importantly, it can be like a perpetual motion machine, as long as there is electricity, it can last infinitely, and it is not as easy to exhaust as human power.
???? She almost loves this baby.
????However……
???? But this little gadget was born at an untimely time!
???? She tried her best to take her gaze away from the other person, and secretly bit the handkerchief in her heart: I must go to the store to buy a similar model in two days!
????Jiang Xue believed her false impression of 'the first taste is nothing but this', and when she was about to leave with her things, she thought about it, and turned her head and said to Hua Baihe:
???? "By the way, Sister Ling, I might come to visit with my family during the Chinese New Year. After Liu Ying heard about this, she also said that she wanted to come with her, is that okay?"
???? Hua Baihe was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect that she would suddenly mention this person, and she suddenly lost interest. She didn't want him to come over at first, but...
???? Making money is important.
???? She secretly said to herself.
???? "Okay, by the way, let her remember to bring her girlfriend with her."
???? After saying this, Hua Baihe wanted to applaud himself for being witty!
???? In this case, even if the other party has some unruly thoughts about him, there is no way that person will be bold enough to do anything against him with the supervision of his wife.
????Jiang Xue waited for a long time, and finally waited for this opportunity to explain to Hua Baihe face to face.
????God knows how long she held it back!
???? She let out a sigh of relief, and turned sideways from the door, barely holding on to the careless expression on her face, as if slightly surprised, lightly raised half of her eyebrows:
???? "She has a girlfriend?"
???? Jiang Xue said firmly: "Impossible, she has been single for more than 20 years, everyone knows."
????I don't know why, but when she heard her say 'single for more than 20 years', Hua Baihe always felt that Jiang Xue was gnashing her teeth inexplicably.
????After saying this, Jiang Xue breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that Xue Ling should believe that she has such a hard-core 'friend' to help her speak this time, right?
???? Unexpectedly, after waiting for a long time, she only got sympathy from the other party's eyes.
???? The translation is:
???? I didn't expect you to have such a good relationship with Liu Ying. She even kept you a secret. How pitiful.
???? Jiang Xue: "..."
???? Jiang Xue: "???"
???? Hua Baihe didn't realize that the sympathy in his eyes was too obvious. He couldn't explain Jiang Xue's appearance for a long time, so he could only say:
???? "Hey...you can find out by looking at her latest Weibo."
???? Even the idea of writing an 18r book for a partner can come up, Hua Baihe secretly thought, don't make yourself a single person all of a sudden.
????Jiang Xue is determined to wash away the grievance of "leaving the group" for her single dog today. She vowed to show her determination to join the group. Her thoughts turned so fast that almost Hua Baihe replied:
???? "She told me about this when she first posted on Weibo. Her book was given to a person she had a crush on for a long time. She hasn't caught up with her yet. Where did she get it from?"
???? Hua Baihe was almost moved by her spirit of 'anxiety for friends'.
???? Then I was shocked by the point of the words:
???? What kind of genius brain does this have to come up with the operation of sending 18r articles to the crush?
???? The complexity on her face changed again and again, and in the end she could only pinch her nose dryly and say:
????"Fine."
????Since it was Jiang Xue who said there was no match, she reluctantly believed it.
????Jiang Xue was afraid that her explanation was not clear enough, so she added: "I grew up with Liu Ying, and I know best if she has a relationship."
???? Hua Baihe was amused by her resolute attitude of interceding for her friend, and said with a smile:
???? "If you want to say that you don't have a date, maybe I believe it. After all, you are so good-looking, you don't look like a puppy love at first glance. As for Liuying, I still have to meet to know."
After finishing speaking, she glanced at the bag in Jiang Xue's hand, cleared her throat, and added:
???? "Although things went wrong today, but you are kind after all, I still have to thank you."
???? Hua Baihe felt that what she said was the most appropriate expression in such an embarrassing situation. Sure enough, although Jiang Xue looked a little stiff, she finally nodded, turned the doorknob, and did not forget to help her again after walking out. Close the door.
???? "Phew, I'm scared to death. If this happens a few times in the future, I'm really afraid that I will become sexually frigid."
???? After Hua Baihe was so frightened just now, all her attention was devoted to dealing with Jiang Xue. At this moment, she was finally the only one left in the room, and she immediately lay back on the bed regardless of her image.
???? Then, he wrapped his little quilt tightly in distress.
????...
???? Outside the door.
???? Jiang Xue carried the bag of things and stood at the door of Xue Ling's room for a while.
???? Her eyes were slightly closed, and she was sorting out the emotions in her heart.
????The other party's words were still echoing in her ears before she went out, so she couldn't help asking herself:
???? Are you really kind?
????Ah.
???? She inhaled and exhaled slowly, and after going back and forth several times, she finally calmed down her mind.
???? Don't worry, now is not the most suitable time.
???? There are guests in the hall outside the door, and the nanny will come back at any time. I can lay the groundwork today to let the other party know that 'Liuying' has no partner. My wish has been fulfilled. As for more...
???? She still needs to wait for a good opportunity.
???? She was looking forward to it so much, when the other party found out that she and Liu Ying were the same person, the surprise appeared on her face——
???? In that case, the taste is the best.
???? "Miss Jiang?"
???? A voice sounded tentatively from the side.
???? Jiang Xue suddenly opened her eyes, and a cold light appeared in her eyes.
???? The nanny was taken aback by her cold appearance. She didn't know what was wrong with the young lady of the Jiang family.
???? Immediately, a gentle smile appeared on Jiang Xue's face: "Auntie, Sister Ling woke up once just now and wanted to call someone in. I saw that you were not there, so I went in to help. Now she has gone back to sleep down."
????The nanny breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good."
???? No wonder, she thought, Miss Jiang was empty-handed before she left, so how could she be carrying a bag in the blink of an eye.
???? Jiang Xue smiled at her and walked away.
???? Until the elders of the Jiang family finished chatting with the Xue family, checked the time, offered to leave, and took her out.
???? Her father, Jiang Gan, was sharp-eyed. He noticed that she was carrying a bag in her hand, and asked casually:
???? "Yo, who gave you this?"
???? Jiang Xue squeezed the mouth of the bag calmly, hugged her in her arms, and smiled at her father: "Sister Ling gave it to you."
???? Jiang Gan was a little surprised, recalling the person who was said to have ruined his talent in a car accident when he was a teenager, the evaluation of Xue Ling in the circle was instantly in his mind.
????Perverse, capricious, lost talent, unbearable talent.
???? He was very surprised that his daughter had a good relationship with such a person, and even got a gift from her: "When did you have friendship with her?"
???? Jiang Xue just laughed and didn't speak.
???? He originally wanted to persuade, but suddenly remembered that his child has always been very assertive. Although he has all kinds of playmates around him, he has never lowered his demands on himself. In the eyes of adults, he is really a 'out Silt but not stained' good boy.
???? So the words came to my lips, and finally became: "You just know what you know."
???? Jiang Xue nodded, followed her father around the path in the courtyard, and walked towards her home.
????...
???? There is a reason why she can come to visit frequently.
????The community where Xue Ling's family is located is an old courtyard in the capital.
????The Xue family was assigned a house in the 70s. Xue Cheng’s brothers and sisters are also very close to this community. On weekdays, everyone would visit each other. After dinner, it is common to go to the brother’s house for tea. .
???? At the same time, many other families enjoying state subsidies, such as the Jiang family where Jiang Xue lived, and the Lin family where Lin Wanxiu lived, all lived in such old courtyards.
????The community looks short from the outside, and the color is still dark brick red, but the decoration inside is quite extraordinary. People who know how to look at the little brother standing guard at the door can naturally guess who lives inside.
???? As for other outsiders, they just regard this place as an ordinary residential area.
???? On weekdays, many professors ride second-hand bicycles from home and run out in the morning breeze. No one can see that this ordinary old man and old lady hide a piece of national history.
????Now that the Chinese New Year is approaching, there is a regulation that fireworks and firecrackers are not allowed in the fifth ring road of the capital, but the enthusiasm for the Chinese New Year has not diminished in every household in the old alleys of the capital.
???? Especially when it comes to Spring Festival couplets that can show off their literary talents, many old professors cheerfully picked up brushes in their study rooms, flying dragons and phoenixes on the red paper, writing with spirit.
???? After the juniors in the family have posted their Spring Festival couplets, they will take a look around the houses in the corridor, secretly considering which one will be the best.
????The community neighborhood committee will also organize some competitions and activities, or couplet competitions, or do some New Year poems, and then organize the children and the elderly to make dumplings together, which is very lively.
???? This year, all the old men in the Jiang family have retired. Taking advantage of the Chinese New Year, to examine the characters of the younger generation. Not long after Jiang Xue came home, she was arrested for drinking tea and appreciating articles. She couldn't relax at all. .
????When she was busy with those old treasures at home, she couldn't help secretly heaving a sigh of relief:
???? Fortunately, I didn't do it a few days ago.
???? Otherwise, the trace of eating and wiping and running away is really unclear.
????Compared to the Jiang family's wholehearted preparation for the excitement of the New Year's Eve, the Xue family originally had this in mind. However, when Xue He and the others were discussing the unified purchase of new year's goods, Xue Cheng's family was not peaceful.
???? For no other reason, Xue Jiming's relationship was discovered.
???? He hid it very well at first, and barely sent voices or videos with Zhao He under the noses of his parents - not trying to hide it, but just looking for a mature time.
???? As a result, one day, when he was taking a shower in the bathroom at night, his phone rang.
???? At that time, his mother, Liu Lu, was tidying up the closet in his room. She was kind to her son, and she was the type who took care of everything. Xue Jiming had to approve the color of his socks since he was a child, and he almost never pretended to be a nanny. and hands of servants.
???? When she saw the 'little lotus' ringing on the phone, she glanced at it by the way. At first, she just felt strange, how strange this nickname looked.
????Then the phone rang twice again. Seeing that her son wouldn't come out for a while, she wanted to answer it and ask the other party to call later——
???? As a result, the female voice over there said carefully: "Okay, okay, Auntie, sorry to disturb you."
????Things are still operating normally.
???? However, after Xue Jiming came out of the shower, the situation began to take a turn for the worse.
???? "Mom, I thought I heard the phone ringing just now. Someone called me?" Xue Jiming wiped his hair with a goose yellow towel, and stepped out of the bathroom with slippers on.
????Liu Lu was brought up by him, and said a lot: "It's a girl, called 'Little Lotus' or something, Jiming, you can't joke like this with your classmates, a girl's reputation is very important."
???? Xue Jiming returned to the room at an instant speed, and at the same time retorted: "It's not a classmate, it's my girlfriend."
????Since they have been discovered, the correct way is to admit it directly!
???? Xue Jiming thought very responsibly.
???? However, Liu Lu's parents, who suddenly discovered the nicknames of their son and daughter-in-law: "..."
???? She was taken aback by the shocking news, and rushed into his room after a while: "Girlfriend? What girlfriend? Whose family is in the capital? Do the other's parents know? What does her family do?"
????A series of questions made Xue Jiming stunned.
???? He reacted for a long time before he said: "I didn't ask carefully what does her family do, but she is not from the capital, and her hometown seems to be in Sun County next door."
???? Where is Sun County?
???? If one day, the capital is willing to expand the [-]th Ring Road to radiate the surrounding backward and poor areas, maybe this place will barely be considered.
????Liu Lu almost fainted after hearing this, and stopped asking him about Zhao He's information. In her mind, she had already sentenced the relationship to death.
???? "No! Absolutely not!"
Seeing her categorical denial, Xue Jiming was no longer busy pressing the phone, but looked at his mother suspiciously: "Mom, you haven't heard me tell you what kind of person she is, why are you in such a hurry Come to a conclusion?"
???? Is this still worth listening to?
???? Liu Lu refused to accept it all over her face.
???? "No way, no way."
???? Xue Jiming was a little annoyed by her completely unreasonable, nonsensical attitude, and said bluntly: "If I must continue, if I tell you, I even plan to marry her in the future?"
????What?
???? He actually thought of getting married?
???? Under the shock of her son marrying a village Cinderella, Liu Lu even forgot her usual good manners, and said earnestly: "Mom married into the Xue family with great difficulty, not for you to marry such a woman! "
???? "Her family doesn't deserve you at all."
???? It is not worthy of the origin and packaging that I have worked so hard to pick out for you.
???? Xue Jiming's eyes showed a bit of astonishment.
????Maybe Liu Lu has already sensed his determination, so Liu Lu said such words directly, but this has always been something she was ashamed to mention in this family, after all...
???? Not glorious.
???? After the voice fell, she felt a little guilty under the gaze of her son, as if she had revealed her most unbearable side by herself, and said to the other party:
???? You have nothing to criticize me, because everything about you is paid for by my hard work.
???? You are also an accomplice, so don't look at me with such eyes.
???? Xue Jiming had countless words stuck in his throat, but as a son of man, he couldn't say a single word.
???? He just looked at Liu Lu in disbelief, with some hurt in his eyes.
????Suddenly, there was a chuckle from somewhere.
???? The mother and son, who were stalemate in silence, turned their heads and saw the girl who came out to pour water. Her thin body was sitting on a black wheelchair, which was highlighted by the color and became even thinner.
???? The white paper cup in her hand, I don't know which one is whiter than her face.
???? She looked so weak, but she stopped her spine like a sharp dagger, piercing the unsightly scene in front of her.
???? She didn't say a word, just raised her hand and drank the water in the paper cup, then turned around and left while operating the wheelchair.
???? However, the laugh she left was like a slap on Liu Lu's face with her raised hand, which made her feel hot and painful.
???? It seems to be asking her:
???? It turns out that you also know that you have exhausted all your efforts to win all of this.
???? I also want to remind her that what she has done is not unknown, and the victim has been watching her here.
???? That was the original sin she couldn't erase.
???? Liu Lu couldn't hold on any longer, turned around and returned to her room in a hurry, leaving only one sentence: "In short, you are not allowed to have any contact with that girl again. I will tell your father about it, and neither will he." Support you."
???? If Xue Cheng's approval is lost, Zhao He will never be able to step into Xue's house for the rest of his life.
???? Xue Jiming has always understood this truth.
???? He watched his mother's figure disappear in front of him, stood in the room, looked at the long corridor in front of him, and felt anxious for a while.
???? "Squeak -" sound.
???? The friction sound of the wheels suddenly braking caught his attention.
???? Xue Jiming froze for a moment, quickly put down his phone, and rushed towards the living room. At the same time, he heard the anxious voices of the servants around him, "Miss!", "Miss, are you okay?"
???? Fortunately, the man didn't fall too hard. He just waved his hand to the people around him. When he was carried into the wheelchair again, he thought of something and glanced at him:
???? "Xue Cheng, you don't have to worry."
???? She said this in a very light tone.
???? But coupled with the picture of her being carried back into the wheelchair with all her hands and feet, especially the thin legs that are powerlessly hanging on the ground, it seems very unconvincing.
???? Xue Jiming squeezed his fist beside him, and subconsciously said, "I'm sorry."
???? But as soon as the words came out, he felt that it was too pale.
???? He stood three feet away, with an embarrassed expression on his face, until he saw the man in a daze, and then waved to him, just like before in front of the coffee shop.
???? Xue Jiming asked again: "Does it hurt?"
????The car accident that year, and the wrestling just now, must have been very painful.
???? Hua Baihe was cared for by this cheap brother, and she felt warm in her heart. She only frowned at him, shook her head, and said nothing. No one knew that she was actually busy arguing with the system that hadn't appeared for a long time.
????At this moment, the system is mocking Hua Baihe in his mind:
???? "Keep drifting, old driver."
???? Hua Baihe threatened: "It seems that you want me to show you your true strength, okay, see you in bed later."
???? The laughter of the system stopped abruptly.
????At the same time, Xue Jiming watched her being sent back to the room by the nanny, looked at her back, and suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart.
He knew that no one else could help him about his feelings. Although he didn't know what Xue Ling was going to do, he decided to confess directly to Xue Cheng during the day tomorrow.
???? Xue Jiming spent the whole night thinking about how to persuade Xue Cheng the next day, tossing and turning all night.
????...
???? The next day, on the breakfast table.
???? Xue Cheng was watching foreign scientific research results with a tablet, eating breakfast with two minds, while the TV in the background was still showing news from international channels.
???? Until Liu Lu made the first move.
????Because Xue Cheng devoted himself to scientific research, it is common for him not to go home for a few months after the project is completed. Fortunately, this year’s Chinese New Year caught up with the good time, and the handover coincided with the handover period between the new project and the old project. Most of them are academic forums and salons, as well as participating in seminars at home and abroad.
It was already three o'clock in the middle of the night when Xue Cheng came back last night. Because he didn't want to disturb his wife's sleep, he just made do with the whole night in the study, and it was only now that he had the opportunity to communicate with his family.
???? Liu Lu cleared her throat, and was about to start with other topics. Just as she was about to ask him if he was busy recently, a voice suddenly sounded from the opposite side:
????"dad!"
???? It was Xue Jiming who spoke.
???? Hua Baihe never imagined that Xue Jiming would be able to steal the conversation just by taking an extra sip of oatmeal, with a sense of sight that he was eager to confess his relationship with his parents.
???? The system frantically urged her to die in her mind:
???? "What time is it! Can you put down the spoon first!"
???? Hua Baihe quickly stuffed an extra mouthful into her mouth, after all, she was afraid that if she finished this mouthful, she would have nothing to eat today.
???? Xue Jiming successfully attracted Xue Cheng's attention. He moved his eyes away from the tablet, turned off the conjecture without any experimental progress, and looked up:
????"Um?"
???? "I have something to say."
???? Xue Jiming was about to speak, but a voice next to him grabbed Bai.
???? Everyone's eyes successfully shifted to the thinnest person present.
???? Xue Cheng raised his hand to show his younger son a stop gesture, looked at Hua Baihe with probing eyes, and asked:
????"what do you want to say?"
???? This is really strange, people who have always been dismissive of family topics, now want to take the initiative to announce something.
???? Xue Cheng thought that she was recently moved by the harmonious atmosphere at home, and the hostility in her body was dissipated. After all, the family has been peaceful for a long time recently.
???? But the facts quickly proved that the head of the Xue family was too naive.
???? Hua Baihe wiped his mouth with a tissue, looked up at him, and said, as if to say 'I'm done eating':
???? "I'm gay."
????Compared to the background of same-sex marriage in the previous world, although Huaguo in this world has retained many good traditions, it has not let go of marriage. When foreign countries clamored for the passage of same-sex marriage, domestic This situation is still a minority.
???? After all, in the Song Dynasty, Cheng Zhu Neo-Confucianism had developed to the point of "preserving the principles of nature and destroying human desires". Although the current world has corrected a lot of excessive development of Confucianism, in general, it is still not let go too open.
????As soon as Hua Baihe's words came out, everyone at the dinner table fell silent.
???? Xue Cheng thought he hadn't heard clearly, so he paused for a long time with chopsticks, and asked:
???? "What did you just say?"
???? Is he getting tinnitus from old age?
???? Hua Baihe opened his mouth, and Xue Jiming next to him seemed to have suddenly realized something. He didn't know where the courage came from, and suddenly raised his hand to cover her mouth, and said quickly to Xue Cheng:
???? "No, Dad, my sister is talking nonsense. She just wants to help me, because I am with a female classmate in school. She is afraid that you will disagree, so she said that on purpose."
???? Hua Baihe whose mouth was covered: "...Hmmm?"
????no!
???? Didi, you think too much, I just want to inform them, I am not talking nonsense!
???? After such a short time, Xue Cheng had already gone through that sentence several times in his mind, and his brain, no matter how dull, had already reacted. He waved his hand to Xue Jiming, "Let go of her—— Xue Ling, what you said just now, you can say it again."
???? Xue Jiming quickly winked at the people around him, pushed Hua Baihe's wheelchair away from the dining table, and then took two steps forward to block his father's anger:
???? "Dad, calm down, calm down, my sister is talking nonsense."
???? "No, I'm telling you seriously, I will never take back what I said today." Hua Baihe supported the wheelchair, was pushed quickly by the servants, and his speed of replying was not slow.
???? Xue Jiming had a headache and turned his head to perfunctory her: "Yes, yes, you are serious."
???? "Xue Ling! You put her down for me—you have the ability to come back to me. If I don't drive you out of the house today, my name will be reversed..."
???? "Dad, calm down! Calm down! You are old, pay attention to your blood pressure, don't be angry, you only get together if you are destined to get together in life, whoever you want to be angry with yourself, don't you think so?" In front of this.
???? Liu Lu who was watching: "..."
???? She didn't quite understand, why did the situation suddenly develop into this?
???? Especially the youngest son, who was still on the sidelines and added: "Dad, really, it's because I want to be with a female classmate that my sister--"
???? "I don't care what kind of girlfriend you are, whoever you love, you pull that rebellious Xue Ling out!"
???? "Okay, then I will take it as your agreement, Dad, I will bring her back during the Chinese New Year—oh, my sister is just saying it casually, don't compete with her for an injury."
????...
???? Within a few days, the news about the Xue family spread throughout the community.
???? "Do you know? That Xue Ling made a new joke again, hey, I really don't mind embarrassing the Xue family."
???? "Hey, what can I do? You don't know about their family's situation? Isn't she just running around all day to get mad at Old Cheng?"
???? "If I want to have such a daughter, I would have strangled to death a long time ago."
???? "I don't know who brought her here..."
???? Gossips are flying all over the sky. When Lin Wanxiu came to Jiang's house, she secretly dragged Jiang Xue to talk about this in the room, and by the way gossip:
???? "Hey, she really has the courage to admit this directly. Thinking about it this way, her future partner is quite lucky..."
???? Can be with such a courageous person.
???? Lin Wanxiu smacked her lips: "I actually feel a little envious of her future partner?"
????Although she and her boyfriend are in the same family, that's it. Neither of them can say that there are no ups and downs in their relationship. For those minority groups, they must have more problems than her.
???? But Xue Ling cleared some obstacles first, which she still admires very much.
????Then, she heard the people around her smile, and then suddenly corrected her expression, and said to her:
???? "Well, you can start to envy."
????Lin Wanxiu: "...???"
???? "Does this have anything to do with you?" She asked incredulously.
???? "I am her future object." Jiang Xue said bluntly.
???? The two chatted in the corner of the living room. At that time, there were other peers chatting. Before Lin Wanxiu could react, she suddenly found the living room quiet.
???? It turned out that when everyone happened to be quiet just now, they heard her gossip.
???? When she was still in distress, she suddenly saw the person next to her say frankly to the group of partners with different expressions:
???? "You can start to envy me."
