He's mother: "My mother-in-law is so polite. I heard Lishu say your cooking is very delicious early in the morning. I have long thought that I must try it if I have the chance."
Several people talked, quickly washed their hands and sat down at the table.
After dinner, Chen Lishu took the two elders to the room arranged for them in advance.
The first room on the right side of the living room was originally occupied by Li Xiulan. She temporarily moved in with Zhao Qiuyue.
The sheets and bedding in the room have been changed.
In the afternoon, the old couple and Chen Lishu went to pick up Ruirui from school.
The next day, the old couple found time to see their son.
However, it was more of a surprise inspection than a visit to see He Ziyu.
I had asked him to be transferred back to Kyoto many times before, and he agreed at first. But a year ago, he suddenly said that he had unfinished business and would not go back for the time being.
This made the old couple very curious as to what could make their son insist on staying against their wishes, so they did not inform him in advance when they came this time.
After refusing Chen Lishu's escort, the old couple took the bus to the entrance of the Medical University. They asked the guard how to get to the staff dormitory, and then walked into the campus in the direction pointed by the guard.
On the other side, He Ziyu heard a knock on the door. After straightening up and stretching, he put down the pen in his hand and stood up to open the door.
The person standing at the door was Xu Ning. He couldn't help but be a little surprised, but he still turned sideways and invited people into the house.
Seeing two pieces of his clothes thrown on the stool, he felt a little embarrassed, so he hurriedly ran over to pick them up and threw them to the bed: "I have been busy doing projects these past two days and haven't had time to clean them up. The room may be a bit messy."
Xu Ning did not sit down, but handed the book in his hand back to He Ziyu: "Thank you for lending me this book. I went to many places and couldn't find it. Now I have read it and made notes on the key points.
I have a day off today, so I stopped by to return it to you."
He Ziyu took the book and put it on a row of information cabinets. He turned around and said, "You don't have to be so polite to me, right? Even if we can't be boyfriend and girlfriend, we can always be good friends, right?"
Hearing him mention the thing he refused last time again, Xu Ning felt a little embarrassed, tried his best to smile, and did not answer the conversation.
He glanced at the furnishings in the room inadvertently, feeling slightly surprised.
He Ziyu did not live in a dormitory for singles, but in a separate one-and-a-half-bedroom apartment specially approved by the school.
It is fully furnished and even has all the kitchen utensils in the kitchen.
You can open the canteen and cook by yourself even if you don't eat in the canteen.
She had been to He Ziyu's dormitory twice before. It had always been tidy and tidy, but now it seemed very messy.
The quilt on the bed was not folded, and the clothes and pants were placed casually. Through the kitchen door, you could see that the kitchen utensils were piled in the sink and had not been cleared away.
Various books and manuscripts are scattered on the desk by the window.
Xu Ning looked at He Ziyu. It was probably due to staying up late that there were thick dark circles around his eyes, and there was even a faint layer of cyan on his chin.
"You didn't sleep all night last night?"
He Ziyu nodded: "I happened to find some useful information in the past two days, so I wanted to sort it out as soon as possible."
Xu Ning continued to ask: "Then you didn't eat breakfast either?"
He Ziyu spread his hands, shrugged his shoulders, and said with a wry smile: "I've been so busy these two days that I didn't have time to have breakfast. When I was hungry, I ate two biscuits. I was just thinking about eating them with all my strength.
After finishing this, go and catch up on your sleep, otherwise you will come over."
Xu Ning frowned: "Your body won't be able to bear it if you continue like this. Besides, it's just a topic. It doesn't matter if you finish it earlier or later. Now you go to bed and sleep."
As he spoke, he glanced sideways at the alarm clock on the table. It was already past nine o'clock, and it was long past meal time in the cafeteria.
After hesitating for a moment, he turned and walked towards the kitchen: "You should go to bed first. I have nothing to do since I have a rest today. I will prepare dinner for you in a while and wake you up to eat."
Looking at her back and the action of rolling up her sleeves, He Ziyu couldn't help but smile with success.
Although what I just said was exaggerated, staying up late is true.
After yawning, he took off his shoes and went to bed, closed his eyes and fell asleep after a while.
Seeing that he was asleep, Xu Ning gently closed the kitchen door, cleaned all the pots and pans in the sink, then washed the rice and started making porridge.
After cleaning up the kitchen, I went to help clean the house.
Finally, I had almost packed everything, and was about to take the dirty clothes to the bathroom outside when I suddenly heard a knock on the door.
Without thinking much, she opened the door and found an old couple standing at the door.
Mr. He and his wife were also a little confused. The person who opened the door was not his son, but a young girl.
He's mother raised her head to confirm the house number again, and then asked with some uncertainty: "Girl, does He Ziyu live here?"
He Ziyu had already woken up when he heard the knock on the door, but he didn't want to move just yet. When he heard He's mother's voice, he jumped up from the bed and ran over in a few steps.
When I saw the two elders at the door, I couldn't help but rub my eyes: "Dad, Mom, why are you here?"
Xu Ning couldn't help but be stunned when he heard He Ziyu's name.
He's mother did not answer her son's words. Instead, her eyes fell on the basin in Xu Ning's hand. The clothes inside were clearly He Ziyu's.
Seeing that the girl in front of her was in her twenties and helping her son wash clothes, He's mother seemed to have suddenly discovered something extraordinary.
No wonder I didn't like any of the blind dates I introduced, and I refused to be transferred back to work. It turned out that I already had a girlfriend.
"Who is this girl?"
He Ziyu knew there must be a misunderstanding as soon as he looked at his expression, and hurriedly introduced: "Mom, this is Xu Ning, who was a student I taught before. Now she works in the provincial hospital. I happened to have a break today to return the books. I saw
I……"
He's mother didn't bother to listen to her son Luo Liba's long words. She took Xu Ning's hand and said with a smile: "Xu Ning, isn't he? He's such a good boy."
Xu Ning was a little uncomfortable being held by her hand, but she still called out obediently: "Hello, uncle and aunt."
He's mother: "Ziyu's father and I are both very open-minded people. There is no need to be restrained when seeing us."
Xu Ning also realized at this time that the old couple of the He family regarded themselves as He Ziyu's girlfriends. She was too embarrassed to explain that they had made such a big mistake, so she just turned around and handed the basin of clothes to He Ziyu.
Ziyu.
"I suddenly remembered that there is something else at home, uncle and aunt, so I will leave first."
Seeing Xu Ning's leaving figure, He Ziyu finally raised his forehead helplessly: "Mom, what are you doing? Look, you scared people away."
In all these years, her son had never been so nervous about that girl. Mother He was even more sure that her son's feelings for this girl were not simple.
