The night is as cold as water!

After Si Lan hung up the phone, he put the cigarette between his fingers into his mouth. The silent room became inexplicably depressing with his slow and low breathing, and he gently exhaled the white smoke in his mouth.

, he stubbed out the remaining half cigarette between his fingers in the transparent glass ashtray.

The atmosphere in the Si family tonight was very abnormal. From the moment Si Lan's father entered the house to now, there was first an incredible quarrel coming from the second floor, and then there was a loud banging sound as someone slammed the door.

This is how the father and son of the Si family get along. There are rules and regulations everywhere in the family, dictating how you must be and what you cannot do. In this family, you have no right to say 'no'.

So much so that the servants of the Si family did not dare to make too heavy footsteps when walking downstairs, for fear that the fire upstairs would spread to the downstairs.

Mrs. Si stood in the living room on the ground floor. After listening to the quarrel upstairs, she told the maid to prepare some food and send it to her son's room.

The maid prepared a bowl of sweet soup, and Mrs. Si went upstairs and knocked on the door of her son's room, knocking four times as a habit. This was a required lesson for her every time her son quarreled with her husband.

The people inside did not keep her waiting for long, because she knew that her son was a man who could distinguish right from wrong. He had a quarrel with his father, but he would never bring such bad emotions to her.

Mrs. Si stood at the door and looked at her son, who was still wearing a shirt and trousers and had not washed up. She motioned to the servant to go downstairs first, and she walked in with the bowl of sweet soup.

"I haven't seen you eat at night, let's drink soup!" Mrs. Si is a woman with a quiet face. This kind of woman is seen in the market a lot, especially after staying with her husband, who is a politician, for almost thirty years. Her grace and calmness

They have all been washed over the years. Just like the fierce confrontation and argument upstairs, she still didn't panic at all. Instead, she walked in with a sweet soup. Without saying anything, she first persuaded her son to drink a bowl of soup.

, it seems that in her role as a mother, her first concern is her son's body.

"No appetite!" Si Lan responded, sitting directly on the sofa opposite his mother. The gloomy expression on his face showed how bad his mood was at this time, and the cold light in his eyes was trying his best to suppress it.

While frowning, he picked up the glass of red wine on the coffee table and poured it into his mouth.

Mrs. Si did not try to persuade her anymore, but sat there quietly looking at her son who was still angry. After watching him quietly finish a drink, she said softly: "Si Lan, you can adopt your father's opinion."

There are other options!”

Si Lan, who was holding the wine glass, turned around and laughed at himself, "Mom, you still don't know his temper. Is there any room for roundabout discussion in any decision he makes after what he says?"

Mrs. Si looked at her son quietly, and what he said was right, because in this family, her husband's words were the authority. Even though she had tried hard to mediate between them over the years, the two fathers and sons seemed to be naturally at odds with each other, and they always fought each other as soon as they got together.

, she and her husband had just returned from France today, and as expected, they still didn't have a decent family dinner, and it still started with a cold scene and ended with a confrontation.

Mrs. Si was so tired that she stretched out her hand to rub her swollen temples. She had not even recovered from the jet lag after getting off the plane, but she was so entangled in this family war that her head was swollen. In fact, she had become accustomed to it over the years. No matter how calm she was, she would act normally.

She treats this kind of relationship with her heart, but there will be times when her spirit is weak. At such times, she feels tired, especially tired!

"Si Lan, since you also know that your father has this temperament, you have never disobeyed him when you grew up. This time -"

"Mom!" Si Lan looked at his mother with wide eyes and said coldly, "Ten years ago, he wanted me to enter the officialdom and follow the path he had taken. Now he wants me without giving any reason.

Exit, why?”

Yes, they had a quarrel tonight because of this matter, and it was the most heated of all the quarrels.

Mrs. Si looked at her son, was silent for a while and whispered meaningfully, "Si Lan, your father must have his own reasons!"

reason?

Any reason he gives is based on his unwillingness. He cannot make any choice in his life by himself. Reading, choosing a major, getting engaged, career, almost everything must follow the route he has planned.

He could not deviate in any way, and he used all the tough methods used in officialdom on him.

He is the guinea pig under his power.

Si Lan stood up from the sofa, picked up the coat on the hanger, put it on her shoulders and walked out. Mrs. Si saw that her son was about to leave, so she wanted to stop him. After all, it was so late and he was going

Where?

Si Lan walked to the door without looking back. He turned his back to his mother and spoke in a low voice. His tone was so decadent that he had no strength to speak, "Mom, I have been thinking about what kind of person I am to him."

Existence? Can you consider my feelings when he makes one decision after another? I am not a puppet, I am a thoughtful person!"

Si Lan's footsteps disappeared in the stairwell. Mrs. Si stood at the door and watched her son leave. She felt sad and covered her face. When she heard slight footsteps behind her, she turned around and looked at the man standing at the door of the study.

The quiet mood of the person beside him fluctuated slightly, "Are you satisfied? He is your son, not a toy in your hands!"

The man standing at the door of the study had a straight back. The lights in the corridor illuminated his resolute face. The outline of his face was exactly the same as Si Lan's. His expression at this time was also so hard and cold. Hearing his wife's

There was a choking sound, and his tightly pursed lips became tense. When he turned around and walked into the study, he said in a low voice, "I have my own reasons, and he will understand one day!"

－－－－－Gorgeous dividing line－－－－－－－－－

After a busy day at the Sea World Aquarium, Lin Xuejing took off the mask on her head when she swam out of the water tank. With the feces cleaned out of the water tank in her hand, she climbed ashore and sat down to rest for a while.

"Xue Jing, you've worked hard today!" The colleague who worked overtime with her gasped and sat down.

Lin Xuejing wiped her wet hair and smiled cheerfully, "It's okay, I have nothing to do when I get home anyway!"

The colleague laughed jokingly, "Shuran used to come here often and was busy helping here and there. Some time ago, the curator would ask from time to time and said that he hadn't seen Shu Ran in a long time. Thinking about it, he hadn't seen her for several months.

Here we are, An An almost misses her!"

Lin Xuejing frowned, "The curator, he feels that there is no free labor to dispatch, so he feels sorry for it. Shu Ran has been helping here for so long and has never taken a penny from him. If I were the museum for such a cheap good thing,

I wish they would come here every day!"

The colleague pursed his lips and smiled. When Lin Xuejing was arranging her hair, she also remembered the scene in the aquarium with Shu Ran. Ever since Shu Ran and Shang Qingwen got together, the two of them had less and less time to be alone together.

, Alas, married women are different. That woman Nuan Yangyang is also a workaholic. When she is working, she will be obsessed with it for days and nights without leaving the laboratory. Coupled with her arrogant mysophobia, Lin Xuejing can hide it.

She can hide as far as she can. She doesn't have Shu Ran's invulnerable face. Whatever Nuanyang says in front of Shu Ran is like a gust of wind. Shu Ran goes in from one ear and blows out directly from the other. Nuan Yangyang is so calm when she says anything.

She nodded and said 'ok', 'ok', but she still did it the next time, but she couldn't do it. She would go crazy if she stayed with that woman Nuan Yangyang for a long time! She couldn't be as calm and composed as Shu Ran!

Lin Xuejing rested for a while and then got up and went to the dressing room to change clothes. She looked at the time and saw that it was almost eleven o'clock. Then she exclaimed that she must talk to the curator about the salary increase this month. She had been working overtime for a week.

!

Some people say that people who don’t have time to fall in love are prone to become model workers. Lin Xuejing now agrees with this statement. She is now a first-class model worker at the aquarium. The model worker is still soaking in the water at 11 o’clock in the evening!

Before Lin Xuejing changed clothes, she first looked at her mobile phone and saw the WeChat message sent by Shu Ran. After reading it, she laughed and started chatting haha. A call was made to Nuanyang Yang. As soon as the call was connected, the woman's voice was so deep that she followed

There was something coming from the ground, so cold that Lin Xuejing shivered, "What's the matter?"

"Shu Ran invites you to dinner tomorrow. See you at the old place!" After Lin Xuejing finished speaking, she hung up the phone before Nuan Yangyang could open her mouth. She was so coldly shaken by the gloomy words of the woman Nuan Yangyang that she felt goosebumps all over her body.

The ground, but she soon got a clue. Look, she guessed that Mr. Shang, who was too busy to lift his feet from the ground, couldn't think of the meaning of the number for a while!

Because people with high IQ do not necessarily have high EQ, and people with high EQ may not be able to react at a certain time. No matter how smart a person is, there will always be times when his brain gets stuck and he cannot react. What's more, then

He is still an uncle several years older than them!

Lin Xuejing feels that IQ and EQ are sometimes inversely proportional to age! Well, Shang Qingwen is a good example!

Lin Xuejing took out her clothes and bag from the locker. After changing her clothes, she heard the text message prompt. She put her bag on her shoulder and looked at the messages on her phone while walking to the door. She had already walked to the door when she saw the text message.

She quickly took a step back and hid in an inconspicuous corner. Her move shocked her colleagues who came out with her. It looked like she was hiding from others. The colleagues patted her on the shoulder and whispered.

He said: "Hey, who are you hiding from?" He glanced out the door, turned around and said meaningfully: "Xue Jing, isn't that the man you are dating? He is developing very fast.

!”

What the hell! Lin Xuejing cursed in her heart. She looked at the white Toyota car parked at the gate. The expression on her face was self-evident. She felt depressed and wondered what should she do now? Who should be called to pick her up? Nuanyangyang?

No, that woman will never go out again if she doesn't go out after ten o'clock in the evening, Shu Ran? Shang Qingwen just came back yesterday, I'm afraid they are inseparable now, isn't she looking for trouble when she calls? Shang Qingwen knows how to use his eyes

Kill her instantly!

Lin Xuejing stood in the corner thinking about various possibilities. It was so late now, and he was still waiting here. It had been like this all week. A large part of Lin Xuejing's work overtime and late this week was because of this man. She's become a piece of candy that can't be shaken off. But she's not that clingy. He just picks her up from get off work every day and waits for her later, and he doesn't make any excessive demands from her. Every day when I send her home, I politely go downstairs to say "good night" and watch her go upstairs before leaving. I am always polite and gentlemanly when dealing with her. In fact, to be honest, she is very nice and well-educated. He has a good education, a good job, and a good family background. He is so perfect that Lin Xuejing can't find any faults. However, Lin Xuejing just feels uncomfortable getting along with him. She always feels that such a man is a bit ungrounded and seems to be a blind date. It's a bit unrealistic to think of such a good person. As many people said, if he is so good, how can he be reduced to a blind date?

Lin Xuejing looked at the white Toyota SUV parked at the gate. What should she do? It was the only way out. Seeing her hesitation, her colleagues asked if they should cover for her. In the end, she sighed and shook her head.

I secretly made a decision, so I just took this opportunity today to talk it out!

This blind date man was introduced by Wei’s mother’s colleague. He lives in a community less than two streets away from her home. Wei’s mother said that they are so close together and often run into his mother at the vegetable market. She is not interested in the other person’s family.

We knew the situation thoroughly. The other party was a returnee who had returned from school and was studying biopharmaceuticals. He actually worked in the same company and laboratory as Nuan Yangyang. In this era when dating is unreliable, we could meet him through the introduction of a friend.

A partner whose conditions are so compatible is really good, so I slapped the table with Lin Xuejing, this man, you must continue to have a good relationship with me! If the chain drops at a critical moment, I will blame you!

Lin Xuejing took a deep breath and followed her colleagues to the gate. The man standing next to the white car door saw her coming out, turned sideways, stood up straight, and smiled slightly, "Let's go, I'll take you to dinner!"

Lin Xuejing was stung by the slight smile on his face, which made her nerves slow for a while. She let him go not once or twice, but the fact that the other party still looked good-tempered really made her feel guilty, and the words that came to her lips were inexplicable.

The land was replaced by, "Have you been waiting for a long time?"

The man smiled slightly, shook his head, and opened the car door for her.

Lin Xuejing looked at him with some embarrassment, feeling guilty and conflicted in her heart. After a while, she bit her lip and said softly, "Um, Fanchen, you don't actually have to pick me up every day!"

Fanchen put his hand on the open car door, curled his lips, and said concisely, "I'm on my way!" After saying that, he patted the car door gently, "Get in the car!"

Lin Xuejing said nothing more. Just as she was about to get into his car, she was hit by a dazzling car light that made her unable to open her eyes. She hurriedly covered her eyes with her hands. The car light was on, and the angle of the light hit Lin Xuejing.

Lin Xuejing's eyes were dazzled. She covered her eyes with her hands and cursed in her heart how could such a low-quality person exist. She turned on the high beam before the car even moved.

When Fanchen's Toyota SUV drove out of the gate of the aquarium, the dazzling car lights left behind were still on. Sitting in the passenger seat, Lin Xuejing always felt like something was staring at her behind her.

Especially when she first came out of the aquarium, she felt a chill running down her spine. Now it was even more wet, as if she had been immersed in ice water.

Lin Xuejing declined Fanchen's invitation to treat her to dinner. It was so late and she had no appetite, and it was not good to be alone and alone!

Returning from the aquarium, Lin Xuejing noticed that there was a car following her along the way. Because the light was not good at night, the car always turned on its high beam, and the beam of light hit her rearview mirror, and she could not see clearly due to the refraction.

What kind of car was it? When Fan Chen sent her to the gate of the community, the car just stopped. Lin Xuejing was about to unfasten her seat belt and get out of the car. The car body vibrated. Neither of the two people sitting in the car could react.

Someone hit me from behind.
