Just as Lu Taoyao finished speaking, Shen Lie, who was eating, put his chopsticks on the table with a snap, making her tremble.
Shen Lie looked up at Lu Taoyao and said in a cold voice: "Lu Taoyao, I think you have misunderstood something.
I came to invite you to lunch these two weeks because I agreed to your conditions before. I don’t want to owe you anything or have anything to do with you.
But this doesn’t mean that our relationship has gotten better. Who do you have the right to care about how long I haven’t been home and whether I can come home to celebrate my dad’s birthday?”
The relationship between Shen Lie and his father Shen Gang seems to be an eternal pain in his heart, a scar that bleeds whenever he mentions it.
Lu Taoyao looked at the suddenly angry Shen Lie and said at a loss: "No, I didn't mean that, it's because Uncle Shen actually misses you very much. Every day when you are not at home, he will often take the bedding from your room." Go out and show off, I think there may be some misunderstanding between you father and son..."
"Lu Taoyao," Shen Lie interrupted her again, looked into her eyes and asked, "Why are you so concerned about me and my dad all of a sudden?"
Lu Taoyao said frankly: "Because during the time I have been in contact with you, I feel that you are not the deviant person you appear to be.
And I can also see that you are deliberately living a cool life outside. In fact, your clothes and shoes are all glued and threaded. You definitely don't have as good conditions outside as you do at home.
I think if you can go home and our two families sit down and have a good chat to resolve the misunderstanding between us, we can become a family, and my mother can take care of you like she takes care of me, so..."
"That's enough! Stop talking!" Shen Lie raised his voice again, interrupting Lu Taoyao's words.
When the people around heard the movement, they all looked sideways.
His attitude was so bad that Lu Taoyao's eyes turned red again.
But this time, she didn't shut up and dare not speak after Shen Lie yelled at her like before.
She suddenly stood up from her seat and shouted to Shen Lie with red eyes: "Why are you so mean? Why are you so mean!"
I have good intentions and think about you. If you don’t appreciate it, then you won’t appreciate it. Why are you trying to hurt me? I don’t owe you anything!
Call me being sentimental, Shen Lie, I never want to care about you again!"
After speaking, Lu Taoyao picked up her lunch box, glared at Shen Lie angrily, raised her beautiful chin, and strode away first.
After walking out for a few steps, he turned back and said fiercely to Shen Lie: "Don't treat me to lunch for three days if you still need it. I really don't want you to pay for these meals!"
Shen Lie looked at Lu Taoyao's back as she strode away, looked at her flying ponytail, and was stunned on the spot.
Did he just...did he really go too far?
In fact, when I think back carefully, it seems that Lu Taoyao has never done anything excessive.
On the contrary, Lu Taoyao seemed to be quite accommodating and took care of him.
Her teaching building was far away from the No. 1 cafeteria, but in order not to keep him waiting, she jogged here almost every day, her smooth forehead covered with beads of sweat.
After the two of them ate together for a few days, she remembered his taste. There were a few days when he had no appetite to eat because of things outside school, so she ordered two portions of food, and the portion she gave him was full of him. Favorite dish.
She has been observing him silently and remembering his preferences. Ever since she was a child, not even his own mother has been so attentive to him.
And then again, how could a simple and innocent person like Lu Taoyao know the specific things that happened between her mother and her father? She just believed whatever her mother told her.
So he just used a particularly bad attitude to reject someone who was full of sincere enthusiasm for him...
After Shen Lie realized what he was thinking, he immediately shook his head vigorously.
What was he thinking just now? He was so soft-hearted towards his father’s mistress’s daughter? He is really crazy!
At the same time, the slag elimination system broadcast: "Just now the mission target Shen Lie's favorability value for you has increased by ten points. Now his favorability value for you is 41 points.
It was a good move to deliberately slap Shen Lie in the face just now, how did you know that Shen Lie was doing this?"
Lu Taoyao tossed her hair coolly: "To deal with such a rebellious and arrogant young man, we need to use both soft and hard tactics.
Moreover, men are living creatures. If you blindly obey him and treat him well, over time, it will only make them think that your kindness is taken for granted.
So you must seize the opportunity, and when it’s time to shame them, you must shame them, so that they will reflect on whether they have gone too far, and then remember how good you are.”
The slag elimination system was stunned for a while and said: "I've learned it, I've learned it. When it comes to dealing with men, you have to be the one!"
After Lu Taoyao returned home that night, she used her pocket money to book a large sea-view suite for Shen Gang and Lu Ya for seven days and six nights, a sweet cross-country trip for two.
Lu Taoyao said to Shen Gang sincerely: "Uncle Shen, I know you happen to be on annual leave starting tomorrow. This is my birthday gift to you. You worked hard for my mother after moving to City A, and went abroad to play with my mother. Take a few days to relax and unwind!”
Shen Gang was so moved on the spot that he held Lu Ya while wiping his tears and said: "It's better to have a daughter. Daughters are all caring little cotton-padded jackets. Sons have come to collect debts in their previous lives. It feels so good to have a daughter!" woo woo woo woo……"
Lu Taoyao couldn't bear to look at the one crying with snot and tears.
Shen Gang and Lu Ya set off early the next morning. They had been reminding each other for a long time about the safety of using fire and electricity at home. They finally left when they were about to miss the plane.
Lu Taoyao whistled: "Wuhu, we can finally start seducing at home unscrupulously, oh no, let's conquer Shen Lie's plan!"
Slag elimination system: "...you were right, you just want to seduce Shen Lie, right?"
Lu Taoyao: "I hate it, I have to say it so clearly!"
That day was Friday, and there were no classes in the afternoon, but classes ended at 1:30 p.m., so everyone would still have lunch at school.
Lu Taoyao did not go to the first cafeteria as usual, but went to the second cafeteria with several female classmates.
Shen Lie walked to the door of the No. 1 canteen out of habit.
He didn't realize until he reached the door that Lu Taoyao had told him at noon yesterday that he didn't need to treat him to lunch for the remaining three days.
But he’s already here, so let’s just wait and see. He agreed to treat me to meals for two weeks, and he didn’t hesitate to treat me to the last three days.
As a result, Shen Lie waited in the No. 1 cafeteria all day long. When all the people in the cafeteria were gone, Lu Taoyao was not even there.
Shen Lie pursed his lips. This woman really meant what she said. She said she would never pay attention to him again, and she really didn't even come to the No. 1 cafeteria.
He suddenly felt a little irritable, kicked the tree hard, and cursed: "I am really sick, why do I care about her!"
Shen Lie spent the entire afternoon and evening doing everything absent-mindedly.
I was playing billiards at the billiards hall in the evening and accidentally missed several shots.
Even Sister Zhu next to me saw the clues. She asked: "Brother Lie, you are not in the right state tonight. You feel like your soul is not in your body. If I didn't know that you don't have a girlfriend, I would suspect that you are having trouble with your partner." in argument."
Shen Lie glanced at Sister Zhu lightly: "What nonsense are you talking about."
As soon as he finished speaking, his cell phone rang. When he took it out, he saw that it was Lu Taoyao calling.
The corner of his mouth curled up slightly, hehe, he just let him go at noon today, and he called me to apologize in the evening?
After picking up the phone, Lu Taoyao's anxious voice came from over there: "Hey, Mom, why is there a power outage at home? I think the power in our building is black, what should I do? It's so dark at home, I'm a little scared! "
