Chapter 56 I was bewitched When Wu Xianyu took Lin Miaomiao to open the door of the master bedroom, Lin Miaomiao's heart skipped a beat when she saw that everything in the room was covered with dust cloth, and she turned to look at Wu Xianyu. Wu Xianyu didn't explain, but just took out his parents' wedding photo. The wedding photo of the two was also very unique, both of them were wearing military uniforms. Putting the photo on the cabinet, Wu Xianyu hugged Lin Miaomiao, whose body was already shaking, and said "This is the only way you can meet my parents." “Salted fish.” With tears in her eyes, Lin Miaomiao hugged Wu Xianyu, buried her face in his chest, and dared not look at the wedding photo again. "I went to ask Uncle Liu specifically this time to confirm what I can tell you, because I thought that I should not hide some things from you. It is a matter of time. But I don't want to tell this matter in school. If they know, they will only look at me with pity, and I don't like that kind of look." After hearing what Wu Xianyu said, Lin Miaomiao took off her newly-matched glasses, the same style as Wu Xianyu's, wiped her face vigorously, and nodded. "Well, I won't tell you. Thank you for trusting me." The voice was still nasal. Wu Xianyu looked at the tearful face and wiped away her tears with pity.
"Don't be so excited. They are doing this for our country. I understand. I have gotten over it a long time ago. Thank you." "Yeah, I know, I know" "Then stop crying. Your eyes will get swollen and I won't be able to explain to my aunt." "I just want to cry, let me cry for a while" Helplessly, he hugged Lin Miaomiao and sat on the sofa. After coaxing her for a long time, he finally stopped her crying with fish balls and Lao Tie. But looking at Lin Miaomiao's swollen eyes, Wu Xianyu already had a headache about how to explain it to Wang Shengnan. Lin Miaomiao saw his distress, came out of his arms, rubbed her eyes, hugged Wu Xianyu's head and kissed him on the side of his face. "I explained to my mom myself that it's okay, I'm going out to play in a few days, I'll be able to adjust quickly." After saying that, Lin Miaomiao left Yuwan and Laotie behind and walked out of Wu Xianyu's house. Wu Xianyu touched his face, then looked down at the large puddle of water on his chest, and couldn't help but sigh. “This person’s tears are free.” After returning to the master bedroom, he put away the photos and restored the room to its original state. Wu Xianyu played with Yuwan and Laotie for a while. They were also angry because they had just been abandoned by the hostess. When Lin Miaomiao returned home, Wang Shengnan and Lin Dawei immediately noticed the redness and swelling of her eyes, and immediately asked Lin Miaomiao what happened. Lin Dawei stood at the door, ready to rush downstairs to find trouble with Wu Xianyu at any time. They both were silent as they listened to what Lin Miaomiao said. Finally, Lin Miaomiao couldn't help crying again and went to the bathroom to wash her face. Wang Shengnan and Lin Dawei sat on the sofa, with complicated expressions on their faces. Lin Dawei sighed and looked at Wang Shengnan. "Let Xiaoyu come up to eat more often in the future. It's not a problem for him to be alone at home." "You say it" Wang Shengnan tried hard to pretend that nothing was wrong, but she couldn't help but reach out to catch her tears. She had her own children and her parents were still alive, so she could empathize with Wu Xianyu's family from two perspectives. As a mother, she feels very sad when she thinks her child will be alone in the future; as a child, she lost her parents in her teens and has to walk the rest of the way alone. The feeling of having no one to rely on can really crush a person. The more she thought about it, the more blurry her vision became. Wang Shengnan simply covered her eyes with paper and leaned on Lin Dawei's shoulder. In the end, Wu Xianyu almost regretted confessing to Lin Miaomiao and had to go to comfort Lin Miaomiao's family by himself. Fortunately, seeing Wu Xianyu in high spirits, Wang Shengnan was relieved and paid more attention to Wu Xianyu, treating him almost like her own son.
Just a few days before school started, Jiang Tianhao invited everyone out to play. Wu Xianyu finally breathed a sigh of relief, as he thought Jiang Tianhao was going to stand them up. He was not greedy for this meal. It was mainly because Lin Miaomiao had been acting abnormally recently. She had to do everything by herself, just like taking care of her paralyzed husband in bed. Even Lin Dawei felt something was wrong and was a little jealous. The two walked out of the community. Lin Miaomiao bought two sausages at the door and handed one to Wu Xianyu. Wu Xianyu finished his own in two or three bites, and then kept looking at Lin Miaomiao's profile. When she couldn't ignore Wu Xianyu's gaze, she turned around and looked at the sausage she had already bitten and asked uncertainly, "What's the matter?" "I've already bitten you, but you want one too?" "Then you didn't dislike the drinks I drank." "." After hesitating for a while, Lin Miaomiao handed over the sausage in her hand, but added: "Okay, I'll give you a bite." One bite? That was enough. Wu Xianyu ate the remaining three quarters of the sausage in one gulp. Lin Miaomiao stared blankly at the bamboo stick in her hand. She felt a nameless fire rising in her heart. She raised her head and looked at Wu Xianyu. Seeing his face, Lin Miaomiao's anger subsided a lot. "Forget it, forget it, don't bother with him" However, Lin Miaomiao underestimated Wu Xianyu's shamelessness. Wu Xianyu would have a bite of everything she ate and drank along the way. Finally, when they were not far from the subway station, Lin Miaomiao could not help it and protected the candied haws in her hand. "No, I won't give you any more. You've already eaten so much. Don't forget that you still have to eat today." "Ha, I thought you really had a people-pleasing personality." Wu Xianyu had eaten so much on the way that he was already a little overwhelmed and burped quietly. "I kind of regret telling you about my family. Look at what you've become these past few days. You even fed me fruit. You didn't see the look in your father's eyes. I almost didn't walk out of your house. Let's just get along the way we should. Don't make me sound pitiful." "Humph, I've been bewitched these past few days. I'm so polite to you. Bah, so disgusting." Lin Miaomiao was so cruel that she even scolded herself. She took a bite of the candied haws and glared at Wu Xianyu. "It seems like you are really fine. You have been able to eat and drink all the way. How can you look like you are in a bad mood? I am at a big disadvantage, hum." Seeing that Lin Miaomiao had returned to normal, Wu Xianyu felt much more at ease and let her scold him. As a result, when she arrived at the security checkpoint, the inspector stopped Lin Miaomiao "Girl, you can't bring food into the subway" "what?" In fact, both of them had brought food into the subway before, and no one stopped them. But this time, for some reason, Wu Xianyu looked at the people in different uniforms behind the inspector, probably because they were being inspected. He touched Lin Miaomiao and signaled her not to speak. "Look over there, they probably have to go through an inspection. Eat quickly, don't waste it, and take the bus after you finish eating." Lin Miaomiao bit a hawthorn ball with a sad face, her mouth full. "I can only eat one at a time, and the ones here are not tasty, too sour, and I still have five or six." As she was talking, Lin Miaomiao looked at Wu Xianyu with a somewhat unwilling expression, and gritted her teeth as she handed him the string of candied haws. “You can eat the rest.” Wu Xianyu took the candied haws and bit off two of them, with a strange smile on his face. "I didn't want to steal it this time. You gave it to me yourself." "Yes, yes, eat quickly, hurry up, my stomach is sour, I didn't finish anything I ate today, I won't go out with you next time." The two of them shared the last three and passed through security as the security officer tried to hold back his laughter. Lin Miaomiao looked around and felt a little regretful. "There are so many people watching. If I had known, I would have eaten slowly. It would have been troublesome if someone I know saw me." Wu Xianyu also looked around. There weren't that many people, and there weren't many young people. Occasionally there were a few who looked unfamiliar, but Wu Xianyu still said to Lin Miaomiao confidently:
"It's okay if they recognize me, it's not a big deal. I can handle the pressure when the time comes. As long as our grades remain stable, there won't be any problems." Looking up at Wu Xianyu's profile, Lin Miaomiao felt that the sour candy balls she had just eaten had become a lot sweeter. She took two steps and got a little closer to Wu Xianyu. A girl who was playing with her cell phone behind them looked up at the two of them, curled her lips, and continued to chat with her boyfriend with her head down. It was only a few days before school started, so why did they have to meet each other? This time Jiang Tianhao did not eat at his own restaurant, but found a farm house, which was said to be the kind with a wood stove. However, Wu Xianyu was skeptical about this kind of farm house in the city. In his hometown, he had to drive to the countryside to eat at a farm house. Could there really be an authentic farm house in such a place? There were a little more people coming this time, probably about ten, but they were all acquaintances, especially Liang Yunshu and Wei Xindi who also came this time, plus another girl from the science class and Lin Miaomiao, there were four girls in total. It’s just that Deng Xiaoqi, whom Jiang Tianhao had always been paying attention to, didn’t come. When they arrived at the farmhouse that Jiang Tianhao mentioned, Wu Xianyu unexpectedly found it to be quite good. It was indeed a wood stove. He didn't know how they allowed open flames. Jiang Tianhao put his arm around Wu Xianyu's shoulders and asked for credit. "How is it? I wasn't kidding you, it's a very authentic wood stove. You have to make a reservation here, otherwise I wouldn't invite you guys to dinner so late this time." "Yeah, you're awesome, so can you let me go? You're not too hot." After all, there was a wood stove in the room, and everyone was wearing warm clothes. At this time, they felt hot and took off their coats. There is no time to play cards this time, firstly because it is almost time for lunch, and secondly because the meal time here is quite tight. Everyone didn't have to wait long before the restaurant served the dishes to everyone. Wu Xianyu took a look and saw that chicken and duck were cooked together. There was also a small food cart on the side, which was full of vegetarian dishes. It was similar to eating hot pot, with chicken and duck as the base of the pot, and then adding soup to cook the vegetarian dishes after the base was finished. If there was any difference in taste, Wu Xianyu couldn't tell any. He grew up in the countryside and had been eating from a wood stove since he was a child. He never expected that he had to make a reservation to eat from a wood stove now. Liang Yunshu saw Lin Miaomiao drinking beer with many other boys and reminded her, but Lin Miaomiao just smiled and whispered to Liang Yunshu "Actually, I can drink quite well. At least Jiang Tianhao can't drink as much as me." After saying that, Lin Miaomiao took a big sip of beer. She felt that it was not much different from drinking Fanta, except that it was not as sweet. Liang Yunshu and the other two girls also learned something new. Seeing that Lin Miaomiao's face didn't turn red from the beginning to the end of the meal, her eyes were clear, and her steps were steady, they believed what Lin Miaomiao said that some people are born with a good alcohol tolerance. In the subsequent KTV session, with Wu Xianyu, the microphone master, the atmosphere was never dull. Coupled with Jiang Tianhao's red envelope session, the whole party was extremely lively. Of course, they drank a lot of wine, especially Wu Xianyu, who drank it like water. The most frightening thing was that after singing the song, Wu Xianyu could help Jiang Tianhao organize a taxi to send all the classmates home. Liang Yunshu and Wei Xindi looked at Wu Xianyu's increasingly smaller figure in the rearview mirror and couldn't help shaking their heads. "This guy must have drunk seven or eight bottles of beer, and probably a box of beer from the ones he drank during dinner. How come he is fine?" "As expected of a couple, they both have such a high alcohol tolerance that they can't even finish drinking white wine." Wei Xindi smiled very ambiguously. When Wu Xianyu was organizing the taxi, Lin Miaomiao was also helping, looking like a young couple. "Oh, why didn't we see it when we were in the first year of high school? Now the two of them look more and more like a perfect match." Although Liang Yunshu is a top student and seems a bit old-fashioned and unkind in school, who would want to act like a class monitor during the holidays? At this time, looking at the "Thursday Group", there was a gleam of joy in his eyes. The two girls were chattering in the car, and the car was getting farther and farther away. After seeing off the last classmate, only Jiang Tianhao, Wu Xianyu and Lin Miaomiao were left. Jiang Tianhao was not drunk this time, and even felt a little unsatisfied. He looked at the still bright sky and proposed to the two of them: "How about we go to a friend's bar? It's not open yet, so we can just watch some old movies and have some drinks, but he doesn't dare to offer us drinks." “Well, I haven’t been to a bar yet.” Lin Miaomiao was curious about all the places she had never been to. As she was not yet an adult, she naturally could not enter the bar.
Wu Xianyu had no objection and shrugged his shoulders. "Then go ahead. I have nothing to do at home anyway and I've finished my homework." "Don't mention homework. It gives me a headache just thinking about it. If it weren't for the cram school, I probably wouldn't have finished it by now." Jiang Tianhao stopped a car for the three of them, gave a name, and turned to look at the two people in the back seat. "You don't know, the entire cram school is basically made up of classmates, but it's called a cram school, but in fact it's just a place for us to do our homework, and if we don't understand something, the teacher can answer it." "My mom wanted me to go, but she gave up after seeing that I had good grades." Lin Miaomiao was sitting in the back row and recalled that Wang Shengnan once said she wanted to enroll her in a cram school, but Lin Miaomiao used her grades to argue against it. With Lin Dawei's whispering, the matter came to nothing. "Then your cram school is pretty good. At least there are no teachers in school who deliberately leave some knowledge points untaught and only teach them in their own cram school." Wu Xianyu's words were so shocking that even the driver looked at him through the rearview mirror. Wu Xianyu didn't understand their reactions. "What's wrong? Isn't this a normal operation? It's just for teachers to make extra money for themselves." “No, this is not normal.” Lin Miaomiao said this in a very decisive manner. (End of this chapter)
