"You want to use me as a shield?" Tian Jing realized something was wrong and her pretty eyes flashed.

Lai Yang was stunned for a few seconds before he understood the meaning of her words, but he didn't really think so at first, so he just said it casually.

But An Jing was not happy anymore. She stood up and said that she was sleepy and she owed her food first.

Faced with this female CEO who was in hot and cold moods, Laiyang was really unsure of her pulse.

But when it comes to shielding, he really hasn't thought about it. The main reason is that there is a big gap between An Jing and himself. If he really wants to take it back, his parents probably won't believe it.

After leaving the school gate, the quiet Mercedes-Benz e300 was parked on the roadside. Seeing this car, Laiyang felt the gap between them even more.

An Jing drove Laiyang back, and on the way Laiyang learned that she would stay in Xi'an for one more day and return to Shanghai the day after tomorrow.

After hearing this, Laiyang wanted to ask if he wanted to join us, but the words came to his lips several times, and he finally choked out, "How is your assistant driving?"

"Better than me." Tranquility held the steering wheel in her hand and stared forward with a pair of big, watery eyes. Viewed from the side, her eyelashes were as dense and long as a small fan.

"Oh, then where do you live?"

"hotel."

"Oh, I thought I was sleeping under the overpass." Laiyang retorted.

"If you want to talk like that, get off the bus right now." Tian Jing was really angry, with a cold look on her face.

Laiyang rubbed the back of his head, confused as to why she suddenly turned against him?

The car arrived at the gate of Laiyang's community. After getting off the car, he stood by the car window and looked at Tianjing.

"Can you tell me what made you unhappy? Just because you went to my house for dinner? Did this offend you?"

Quiet and slender fingers rubbed the steering wheel, making a squeaking sound. She turned her beautiful profile to Laiyang and sighed, "I really don't like others to take advantage of me. You have done it twice. If I don't say it, it doesn't mean that I don't know clearly.

.”

After saying that, she drove away slowly.

The world suddenly became quiet, and the scent of white magnolia disappeared from the air. All of this made Laiyang feel a little lonely, so he wrapped himself tightly in the coat given by An Jing and walked home in the wind.

…

The parents did not expect their son to come back suddenly, so after Laiyang entered the door, the two elders stared at him in disbelief for several seconds before coming forward to greet him.

The originally deserted home suddenly became lively. Laiyang's parents had already had dinner, but they started cooking for him and started working in the kitchen again.

After a while, there were three or four home-cooked side dishes, a bowl of millet porridge, and two steamed buns on the dining table.

Although it was just a simple meal, Laiyang ate it with gusto, maybe because he had been hungry all day, or maybe because the meal tasted like home.

His parents sat at the dining table and watched him eat, which made Laiyang feel a little embarrassed.

Yang Ma took advantage of his meal and asked a lot about the recent situation. Is it cold in Shanghai? Are you used to the food? Is there a lot of pressure at work? Wait...

Laiyang had long been tired of hearing these trivial murmurs, but this time he felt warm in his heart. Maybe he had been alone for too long.

Laiyang felt that he hadn't been cared about like this for a long time.

Dad Yang's question is much simpler, just two sentences, why are you back? What happened?

Laiyang originally wanted to get some sleep before talking about Gu Qian, but Yang's father's wrinkled eyes were like bright mirrors, leaving him nowhere to hide.

It is said that a son is better than his father. Father Yang could tell at a glance that something was wrong with Lai Yang. After asking a few questions, Lai Yang put down his chopsticks and told her everything about breaking up with Gu Qian and transferring the house to her.

When he said this, Laiyang could already feel his parents' mood reaching rock bottom.

He was also prepared to be criticized, but what he never expected was that after hearing this, his father just said: "Drink the porridge first, it will cool down after a while."

Just this simple sentence made Laiyang almost shed tears.

It is filled with the family's tolerance, understanding and comfort for themselves.

This kind of tolerance and understanding was something Laiyang couldn't find even with a lantern after leaving home.

He drank the last mouthful of millet porridge with red eyes, and a warmth flowed from his intestines to his heart.

After the meal was finished, Yang's mother put away the dishes and washed them. Laiyang wanted to help, but her mother just shook her head and said with a smile: "Yang, go and have a chat with your dad. He must have a lot to say to you."

Upon hearing this, Laiyang's outstretched hand froze slightly, nodded and walked toward the living room.

Father Yang was sitting on the sofa, lighting a cigarette absentmindedly. When he saw Laiyang coming over, he took a heavy sip and motioned for him to sit down.

Father Yang knew that Laiyang smoked, but he had never smoked in front of his father.

It's not that he is very filial, but that he was caught smoking by Yang's father in junior high school, and his butt was spanked until it was swollen for a week...

"Yang, don't blame your family for this matter. Our family only has so much ability. Your mother and I have done our best to collect a down payment for you."

Father Yang's words made Laiyang's heart seem to be hit hard by something!

He completely did not expect that his father not only did not blame him, but instead blamed himself for breaking up with Gu Qian and for not creating a more favorable condition for him.

Laiyang looked at his old father in front of him. He was sitting hunched on the sofa, with bags under his eyes and white hair on his temples.

The fingers holding the cigarette are full of rubbing, because he has always been an electrician in the factory, so there are still many scars on the palms that will not fade away.

This scene, coupled with Yang's father's words just now, made Laiyang's emotions that he had been holding back since entering the door burst out.

Tears blurred his eyes for a moment. He gritted his teeth and did not whimper. He just covered his face with his hands. After a while, he shook his head and said, "It's okay, Dad, why are you saying this... It's my problem..."

"Yang, if you think Shanghai is too tiring, come back and find a new girl when you come back." Yang's mother also poked her head out of the kitchen.

"It's okay, it's okay, I'm fine, everything is fine."

…

It seems that when every child grows up, no matter what they encounter outside, the last thing they say to their parents is "I'm fine." But their parents never believe this sentence, because when they were young, they also said the same thing to their parents.

What the elders said.

That night, Laiyang talked a lot with his parents and talked about the many interesting things he had seen in Shanghai.

He also talked about the situation of his small theater. Of course, he always talks about the good side to his parents.

From what they heard, it seemed that this small theater was not far away from being listed on the market.

At the end of the chat, Yang's mother held Laiyang's hand and asked about Yuan Qing's (Yuan Shengda) situation.

After saying this, Laiyang noticed that Father Yang's expression also changed slightly.

This made him a little confused. Looking at the second elder, Laiyang said that she was also very good. She was now running a theater with him and rented a house very close to her.

As a result, Yang's mother suddenly asked: "Then have you ever liked her?"

"Well, actually, you two have been on good terms since you were little. Qingqing came back a while ago and came to see us. Now you've changed a lot. You've become more graceful." Dad Yang exhaled a puff of smoke and looked towards us.

son.
