Even Xiao didn't dare to show any temper, so he was dragged by Liao Ran and took his family on a one-night in-depth tour.

Except for the open-air balcony, I checked all other places once.

When she came to the hospital the next day, Lian Xiao's mother took a look at her son and then at Liao Ran. Why did these two children seem more sleepy than yesterday?

Didn't sleep well?

After Lian Xiao brought Liao Ran to the ward, he went out to buy breakfast by himself with an insulated box.

Liao Ran was left alone, feeling prickly all over his body, and didn't know what to say.

Lian Xiao's mother saw the nervous look on Liao Ran's face, so she took the initiative to find a topic to chat with.

"Xiao Ran, have you graduated from university now?"

Liao Ran hesitated for a moment: "I, I never went to college..."

"Oh." Lian Xiao's mother still had a smile on her face.

Liao Ran quickly explained: "After I graduated from junior high school, I went to learn painting from others, and now I mainly make money by painting."

"Well," Lian Xiao's mother nodded, "Where is your home?"

"..."

Liao Ran felt a little suffocated.

Except for a few people who mentioned his family to Lian Xiao and Lao Li, he didn't say much to anyone else.

Because he doesn't think it's a glorious thing to say it.

But looking at Lian Xiao's mother's gentle eyes, he still said something: "My father and my mother divorced when I was in junior high school. After the divorce, I lived with my mother and changed places everywhere..."

Although even Xiao's mother's tone was calm and she didn't ask any excessive topics, Liao Ran still felt uncomfortable while chatting.

He found the gap between himself and Lian Xiao.

Lian Xiao has a diploma and a family that should be in the eyes of ordinary people, and has received a good school education.

On the other hand, he himself has a broken family and hasn't studied for many years.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a sinking heart. Could Lian Xiao's parents accept him for an incomplete person like him?

Do you feel that you are not good enough for Lian Xiao?

A feeling of uneasiness began to spread in his heart.

He was a little eager to want Lian Xiao to come back immediately, and then he could hide in a quiet corner without talking anymore, or if he had something to say, Lian Xiao could help him block it.

He knew that if he wanted to be with Lian Xiao and be accepted by Lian Xiao's family, he would inevitably be scrutinized by the other family.

He felt that he was not ready at this moment, and he didn't know when and to what extent he would be considered ready.

The air became more and more solidified.

Before Liao Ran waited for Lian Xiao to come back, Lian Xiao's father woke up first.

"..."

He was so desperate that he wanted to hit the wall.

Lian Xiao's father opened his eyes and when he saw him, he immediately greeted him first: "Uncle, hello uncle, my name is Liao Ran..."

Lian Xiao's father moved his facial muscles, then put on the glasses beside the bed, glanced at Liao Ran, and said with a smile: "You are Liao Ran, hello, the young man looks very energetic... "

Lian Xiao's father didn't ask any trivial matters about his parents, but turned on the TV and chatted with Liao Ran about the current affairs news broadcast on TV.

"..."

This topic is even more difficult for Liao Ran. He rarely pays attention to celebrity gossip, and he doesn't understand these important national affairs.

It's good that way, since we're still strangers to each other, it's even more embarrassing if we talk too much.

Moreover, Liao Ran could tell that Lian Xiao's parents were somewhat uncomfortable when they saw him.

Fortunately, soon, Lian Xiao came back with an insulated box.

When Lian Xiao saw his father woke up, half leaning on the bed watching TV, and talking to Liao Ran, his whole body trembled, and he froze on the spot, not daring to move.

"Why are you standing there?" His father asked him, "Come and sit down and eat."

"Ah, oh oh."

When his father woke up and saw him yesterday, he didn't say much, but just chatted about his arrangements for the next semester of his senior year.

Now that there is one more Liao Ran, he is afraid that his father will do something unexpected.

After eating breakfast, Lian Xiao found that his father didn't seem to dislike or reject Liao Ran very much. Instead, his father wanted to eat the flower cake brought by Liao Ran, but his mother stopped him.

When he went to wash the insulation box with his mother, he left Liao Ran alone with his father.

He was a little nervous, took two steps and looked back once.

His mother smiled: "Why are you nervous?"

"Ah," Lian Xiao faltered, "Just, Liao Ran himself, will my father..."

"Will it be the same as that day, beating someone?" Mom laughed again, "Don't worry, it was the first time your dad did it, and he wouldn't do it to Liao Ran. You were born by him. It's okay to hit him, he can't beat Liao Ran, right?"

"Oh."

After walking for a while, his mother said again: "I think Liao Ran is much more sensible than you."

"..."

"Although he didn't go to college, he looks more pleasing to the eye than you." Mom gave him a look. "You're fooling around all day, making people worry about you."

"..."

Has anyone said that about their son?

But Liao Ran will be your son in the future, hey, go ahead, go ahead and belittle me as much as you want, and raise your new son up!

Lian Xiao couldn't care less about arguing with his mother about his daily performance, but focused on Liao Ran's problems.

"Mom, he told you about his family?"

"Well," my mother nodded, "we had a chat when you went out to buy breakfast."

"What did you say?"

"His parents divorced."

"Then why they divorced, do you know?"

"Of course I can't ask him face to face!" Mom gave him a blank look, "Even if you want to ask, you have to ask others behind your back."

"..."

Lian Xiao smelled the gossip-loving atmosphere of his mother.

"It sounds like Liao Ran is quite pitiful," the mother continued, "My parents divorced at a young age."

Lian Xiao gritted his teeth: "His father divorced after he knew about him. His father couldn't accept it and scolded him."

As soon as my mother heard it, she knew what "that thing" was, but she just sighed lightly and didn't speak.

Lian Xiao looked down at her from time to time, and she noticed it.

She raised her head and asked, "What do you see me doing? Are you expecting me to divorce your father?"

"..."

Lian Xiao quickly shook his head: "Where do you think you are?"

He hugged her shoulders tightly again: "I still hope that you two will grow old together and have a happy marriage for a hundred years!"

His mother barked a laugh: "Poor mouth."

The two washed the insulation box and returned to the ward. Lian Xiao made an excuse and called Liao Ran outside.

"What did my dad tell you?" Lian Xiao was nervous.

"Nothing." Liao Ran replied calmly.

"Impossible," Lian Xiao frowned, "He already knows the relationship between you and me, so it's impossible to turn a blind eye."

"He didn't say anything about breaking us up," Liao Ran patted Lian Xiao on the shoulder, "Let's go back, it's time for political commentary, and I still want to read it."

"..."

After dinner, Lian Xiao's mother accompanied his father to the hospital yard for a walk, followed by Lian Xiao and Liao Ran.

After walking for a while, Liao Ran suddenly said, "Xiao Er, go back tonight, I have something to do."

Lian Xiao tightened his back: "Yes, what's the matter?"

Seeing his reaction, Liao Ran rolled her eyes: "It's not what you think."

"What do I think..." Lian Xiao stroked Liao Ran's back awkwardly, "Can't we say it now?"

"Let's talk about it when we go back," Liao Ran thought for a while, "I talked to your father when you were away today."

"it is good……"

Hearing what Liao Ran said, even the soles of Xiao's feet were sweating.

After walking back, Lian Xiao's mother picked up some clothes and asked Lian Xiao to take them home to wash.

His father stretched himself, and said sullenly: "It's too hot, I'm sweating all over, I'm going to take a shower."

"Old Lian, can you do it alone?" Mom folded the quilt, "You feel a little dizzy from time to time, let Lian Xiao wash it for you?"

"Yeah." His dad nodded.

Lian Xiao followed his father to the bathroom. It was the first time he helped a patient take a bath, and it was his own father. He was very uncomfortable and his movements were clumsy.

Several times his father wanted to scold him.

Lian Xiao rubbed his father's back. He is good at this. He used to do it often in the university bathhouse.

His father felt comfortable, hummed a few times, and said, "Are you sure you will stay in Lijiang after graduation?"

Lian Xiao's hands froze, and he returned softly: "Mmm..."

After rubbing it a few more times, the voice became softer: "I don't want to be separated from Liao Ran..."

"I didn't tell you to separate," his father said angrily, "I just asked about your future work plans."

"Oh."

"Think about it yourself. How you live in the future is your own business. I can't control you for the rest of your life."

"Ah."

After taking a bath for his father, Lian Xiao took Liao Ran home.

On the way, Lian Xiao's pace was a little relaxed. After thinking about what his father said, he basically decided that his father would not object to the fact that they were together.

"My dad told me in the shower," he said, "let me decide how I want to live in the future, and he doesn't care about me."

"Yes." Liao Ran listened.

"I just want to," he put his arms around Liao Ran, "after graduation, I will stay in the bank steadily, make money to buy a house, and let us live our lives, hehe."

At this time, Liao Ran stood still and did not leave.

Lian Xiao raised his eyebrows: "Why don't you leave?"

"Lian Xiao, have you ever thought about studying abroad?"

"Why did you ask this suddenly?" Lian Xiao turned around and faced Liao Ran.

"you answer me."

Lian Xiao looked at Liao Ran's serious expression, and replied: "I thought about it, but I wanted to go out at that time to escape the pressure at home. After I came out, my dad didn't talk to me for a long time. I couldn't stand it." This feeling, so I thought about going out and hiding for a few years."

"Then what if I let you out?"

"What do you mean?"

Liao Ran lowered her head, looked up after a while, and looked into Lian Xiao's eyes: "I want you to study abroad and learn more things."

Lian Xiao's breathing was a bit stagnant, his face darkened, blending with the night.

"What did my family tell you?"

"No," Liao Ran shook his head, "Your parents never hinted at me."

He went on to say: "Your dad just wants you to learn more skills, and I think so too."

"Is it okay to study after working in a bank?" Lian Xiao was a little angry, his voice raised a few decibels.

"Your major should not stay in Lijiang," Liao Ran said, "You should go to Shanghai, or return to Shenzhen. These places have a wider platform."

He looked at Lian Xiao and said, "I saw the words you wrote indiscriminately on economics. You said you want to join an investment bank."

"What is an investment bank, do you know?" Lian Xiao asked back.

"I don't understand, I don't know," Liao Ran shook his head, "I only know that you have changed yourself too much in order to accommodate me."
