In dire straits

Duplicity is perhaps one of the truest human emotions.

And, it's not just girls who do this.

Nie Guangyi is the one who longs for company the most.

He got married in a daze at that time, not only because of his appearance and justice, but also because he wanted to have a family of his own.

As soon as he got married, he found that his relationship and outlook were at odds with each other, and he still wanted to keep the family.

His efforts were fruitless, and he could only live with Xuan Shi, who was also lonely.

The brotherhood between Nie Guangyi and Xuan Shi began in Shanghai Middle School, but more importantly, it was established over meals in Italy.

When I was young, my parents had a very unharmonious relationship.

Needless to say, Professor Nie is busy.

Mom is dedicated to her career, but she is much busier than Nie Tianqin.

At first, Nie Guangyi couldn't stand having so many tutors bothering him all day long, so he worked hard on his own.

I didn't think about it, I just decided to become the king of kings.

But, what's the use?

There has always been a gap in Nie Guangyi's heart.

Only the warmth of family can fill this gap.

The funny thing is that until now, only Xuan Shi has successfully filled it with something.

It might as well be my companionship in Italy for ten years.

It’s just the accumulation of meals in the past ten years.

Nie Guangyi also knew that the reason why Xuan Shi stayed in Italy was because Cheng Nuo lost contact.

I despise him every day, but from the bottom of my heart, I still admire Xuan Shi's persistence in love.

Not everyone can encounter love.

Not everyone can be so firm in love.

The reason why he beat Xuan Shi and hanged him from a tree every day was because he had never experienced what it felt like to want to hang himself.

The mouth is too straight.

Those who dislike goods are the ones who buy them.

Something seems wrong...

In a word, Nie Guangyi's heart was extremely empty.

If not, he wouldn't have cried like a lunatic after reading Nie Tianqin's letter on the plane.

Some desires are hidden deep in the heart.

And expressed in completely opposite form.

This can fool a lot of people.

Including his best brother.

And Nie Guangyi during the day.

But how could he not deceive himself in the dead of night?

After all, he is also a strong-blooded man.

During the marriage, it was already a physical marriage.

Liao Sijia is indifferent to everything and is only interested in money.

Nie Guangyi was not the kind of person who would beg hard and try his best to please for something.

He was depressed, but also happy.

At least, during the divorce, as long as he is willing to leave the house, he will have no other ties.

He has plenty of ways to make money back.

If it doesn't work out, there is still the trust his mother left him, which has never been touched.

Fourteen years have passed and the value has increased several times.

He didn't completely let go of Nie Tianqin's tampering with his wishes.

It was Nie Tianqin's white hair and wrinkles that made everything insignificant.

Dad is seventy years old.

How much longer can I stay with him?

Nie Guangyi can't tell whether he prefers to design futuristic concepts or to rebuild ancient buildings.

The only thing that was clear was that he wanted to spend more time with the gray-haired Professor Nie.

…

Zongyi's life is a little less beautiful.

My sister went to study in England, and my father chased her out without saying a word.

Now it's fine, she and Ms. Menglan are left at home.

Ms. Menglan's cooking skills are obviously very good, but she behaves as if she can't take care of herself.

Even wanting to have a meal at home has become a luxury.

"Mom, why is there still no cooking at home today?"

"Before your father comes back, you can either eat instant noodles or cook by yourself. Otherwise, there are only tomatoes and cucumbers. You can get them from the refrigerator."

"But mom, I'm only eleven years old."

"Who stipulates that eleven-year-olds cannot cook? Your mother and I can burn firewood at the age of six, cook at the age of seven, and scramble eggs at the age of eight. You are already eleven years old, you should have learned four dishes and one soup long ago.

.”

"It's because my mother is so good that I let her cook for Ayi." Zongyi is a snack foodie, and his mouth is sweeter than honey just for one bite.

"It's your father's business to cook for you, what does it have to do with me?"

"But, you are my mother."

"What's wrong with your mother? If you don't believe it, ask your father yourself."

"Ask dad what?"

"Ask him if he said that I am only responsible for giving birth to you, and he will take care of the rest."

"But dad is not in the country right now."

"How can there be so many things? Your father is not in the country. What's the use of telling me? Did I make your father not in the country?"

"But... uh..." Zongyi paused, "But I can't withdraw it."

"Now that you know to withdraw, then you should do whatever you want."

"Mom, mom, mom, please be reasonable." Zongyi went into rap mode.

"You tell me."

"It's not that you are wrong for keeping dad out of the country. It's not my fault for keeping dad out of the country. Little Ayi is innocent."

"You are so old and still young? How are you innocent?" Meng Lan did not give in at all.

After Zong Yi heard this, he touched his flat belly and curled his lips.

"Don't do this with me! Who asked your father to go abroad? Who did you ask to be responsible for going abroad? Why are you looking for me? I'm still annoyed!"

"I want to tell my sister that you bullied me."

"Tell me, can I still be afraid of your sister?"

"Mom, it doesn't matter if you are not afraid of my sister. I asked my sister to drag my father and not let him come back."

"Have you become more capable? Do you think your father will listen to you?"

"Mom, I think my father might not listen to me. But if I make my sister feel uncomfortable every day and she is not acclimatized all the time, my father will definitely not leave my sister alone."

"Zong Yi, I found that you have become more capable."

"Yes, Mom, I am already eleven years old. I will not be so easy to bully anymore. If you don't cook for me for one day, I will make my sister acclimatized for one day. If you don't cook for me for two days, I will let my sister get acclimated."

My sister has been acclimatized for two days."

"Let me see how many days you can last."

"Mom, I've been eating takeout and instant noodles for three days. My father didn't allow me to eat them before. Now I really think instant noodles are delicious. There are so many flavors. I like every one of them.

Give it a try and give it another ten days and a half, it will definitely not be a problem."

"I found that you are really itchy." Meng Lan never thought that after Zong Ji and Meng Xinzhi left, her little daughter, who had always been submissive, actually became aroused.

"Mom, it's not that I'm itchy, I've always been like this. If dad hadn't asked me to let you go every day, I wouldn't have spoiled you!"

"Are you looking for a beating?"

"Mom, you said that you would never corporally punish children in your life. You also said that if you see anyone beating a child at home, you must report it to the Women's Federation. I even remember the phone number. Do you want me to recite it to you?

"

"You're carrying it!"

"Mom, I forgot."

"It's good to just give in, and you're not hopeless."

"Mom, I'm not cowardly. I can still call even if I forget. You told me that if you don't remember to report the call, just call 110."

"How could I teach you such a monster?"

"You're right, you're a monster. It shows that my mother has taught her daughter well. At a young age, her daughter knows how to protect herself best."

"Okay, I'll be honest with you."

Menglan climbed up from the bed.

Went to the kitchen and took a cucumber and her phone.

Menglan came back and lay down on the bed.

Called the phone: "Hello, are you Zongyi's father?"

"What's wrong, Lan Lanzi?" Zong Ji asked in a hoarse voice on the other end of the phone.

It's half past two in the morning London time. At this time and with this voice, he is obviously sleeping.

"I'm not Lan Lanzi. I'm a suspect now. Someone named Zong Yi said he wanted to call 110 to arrest me. I just want to ask if that is your baby."

"Ayi wants to call the police to arrest you? Why?"

"Say I won't cook for her."

"How could Ayi do this?" Zongji was very angry: "Give her the phone and I will teach her a lesson."

Meng Lan handed over the phone: "Here, your father asked you to answer the phone."

"Dad, it's still early in the morning for you right now? You should go to bed quickly. Mom and I were joking."

"Ayi, of course dad knows you're joking." Zongji's voice was not too gentle, and he didn't seem to want to "teach a lesson" at all.

Zongji asked on the other end of the phone: "Ayi is hungry, right?"

"Yes dad, I don't want to eat instant noodles anymore."

"Didn't Dad make a lot of pasta for you and freeze it in the refrigerator? Just defrost it in the microwave and reheat it."

"I know dad, I accidentally ate two or three days' worth of food in one day, and it was all gone soon."

"Didn't Ayi say that she wants to learn dancing from her sister? Look at her sister's efforts to keep in shape."

"But the pasta made by dad is so delicious that Ayi can't stop eating it." Zongyi felt a little aggrieved.

On weekdays, when her father is around, she can control her diet to some extent.

Without her father, nothing could comfort her soul except delicious food.

"Dad thought of it."

"Ah? Can you think of all these?"

"Of course, I'm your father. Of course I know you don't want to eat diet meals like your mother." Zong Ji said.

"Only you believe that mom has been eating diet meals?!"

"Listening to this tone, what kind of injustice did Ayi suffer?"

"Yeah, dad, wait until I go upstairs to talk to you."

Zongyi moved to another place and complained seriously: "Dad, when you left, you said that you would make more food for me and my mother, but my mother said that she only eats diet meals. After you left, my mother tried her best to eat what you cooked for me.

It’s delicious. If I hadn’t worked hard to eat more every day, mom would have eaten more than half of what you made.”

"Is your mother that extreme?"

"Well, I haven't had any food from home for several days."

"Didn't you go to the studio on the first floor to have a meal?"

"Brother Shi has gone to deal with things these days, and Sister Nuo hasn't cooked either."

"That's it...it doesn't matter!"

"How come it doesn't matter?"

"Ayi, daddy tells you a secret. You don't want your mother to know, but you want to share it with your mother?"

"Don't let me know how to share, my dad."

"Dad made a lot of dumplings, with seven different fillings. They were all labeled and frozen in the refrigerator of your sister Cheng Nuo's RV. Your mother doesn't know. Give some to your sister Nuo, and then give some to your mother.

, just say it was your sister Nuo who did it."

"Isn't this good, Dad!"

"As long as the two of us reach an alliance, there will be nothing bad."

"No, Ayi won't agree." Zongyi firmly refused.

"Then how can Ayi agree?"

"Unless daddy tells me where else there is some delicious food hidden!"

"Haha, I really can't hide anything from little Ayi."

"Dad, tell me quickly, tell me quickly."

"After your sister Nuo's boyfriend came, he bought a freezer for the studio. Dad made some delicious and convenient things to put in it. Your brother Xuanshi also made a lot. He said that if you are hungry, you can

Go and eat whatever you want.”

"dad!"

"What's wrong? It's so loud all of a sudden."

"Just tell me, did you plan to stay out for a month or two from the beginning, instead of telling your mother to come back in a week?"

"Our Ayi has really grown up! Can Ayi help dad take care of mom?"

"My dad, you are really brave now."

"No, Ayi, this is your sister's first time living alone abroad. No matter what I think, dad still feels uneasy. He must wait until your sister gets used to it before going back. Don't you think so?"

"Yes, Dad, my sister is so good-looking. It must be extremely dangerous to be alone abroad."

"Then Ayi, please tell me if dad should stay a little longer to help your sister arrange everything."

"Of course, no one is more important than my sister."

"Yeah, your sister also said that she will complete her credits as soon as possible and return to China as soon as possible to continue teaching you how to dance."

"It's okay dad, as long as I have good food to eat, I can take care of myself."

"Ayi, you can't just take care of yourself, you have to take care of your mother."

"I know! My mother is still young! I will definitely give her enough time for weaning."

"Ayi, just talk to your father about this, but you must not say it in front of your mother."

"Isn't this nonsense, my dad, do I look that stupid? If you were not here, if I really said that, I wouldn't really be beaten by my mother."

"I'm not stupid, but Ayi is the smartest. In the whole family, Ayi is the smartest."

"Dad, you don't need to say anything like this to deceive a three-year-old child. It's not like I don't know that you and your sister said the same thing. In short, you make arrangements for my sister, and I will make arrangements for your wife."

"That's good, that's good. Can daddy ask Ayi how he plans to arrange it?"

"As long as Ayi has something to eat, Ms. Menglan will not starve to death."

"Ah, this..."

"Is there anything left that is not enough?"

"That's enough! Then Dad is completely protected by Ayi."

"No problem." Zong Yi said, already running to the side of the freezer, "Dad, you go to bed first, I will call you and my sister in the afternoon."

Without his father, Zongyi lives in dire straits every day.

Only good food can make everything okay.
