Since he came out to live independently, Li Chenghao, like many people in H country, has not had the habit of eating breakfast.
in front of the dining table
Looking at the porridge, eggs and side dishes carefully prepared by 'iu mother', Li Chenghao picked up the spoon and took a bite.
iu sat opposite Li Chenghao with his chin in his hands. Seeing Li Chenghao take a bite, he immediately asked: "How is it? Is it delicious?"
"Can my aunt's cooking not be delicious?"
iu almost spilled the beans.
Seeing Li Chenghao pick up the chopsticks with his left hand to pick up the vegetables, he immediately reached out and grabbed the chopsticks: "Don't move your left hand, I will help you pick up the vegetables."
Leaning on the chair, Li Chenghao looked at iu: "What did you hear last night?"
"I didn't hear anything."
"Tell me what you heard last night."
Li Chenghao's expression turned completely gloomy. Iu put down his chopsticks and said, "I really didn't hear anything, I just saw the wound on your shoulder."
"Nothing else?"
Iu didn't dare to look into Li Chenghao's eyes and replied firmly: "Nothing else, just lie down on the sofa and fall asleep."
"Impossible, if I didn't say anything about how you saw my wound, don't use the lame excuse that you have been coveting me for a long time and want to sleep with me."
It was iu's turn to be speechless.
Putting aside the question of whether the excuse is bad or not, IU would not say that she wanted to sleep with Li Chenghao.
"You want to know, right? Let me tell you, last night you said you were going to the aquafield, and you asked for No. 8 to wait on you and help you take a shower."
Li Chenghao frowned: "Me?"
"Yes, that's you."
"You probably didn't make it up on the 8th."
IU asked Li Chenghao: "So who is No. 8 and what is Aquafield?"
Picking up the spoon and taking a sip of the porridge, Li Chenghao said calmly: "Aquafield is a place for bathing, and No. 8 is a technician. His skills are quite good, and his massage techniques are also very professional."
"Tsk tsk tsk, it's the kind of place you mentioned."
Li Chenghao did not explain.
iu continued: "After sending you home, you regarded me as No. 8."
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Chenghao firmly denied: "Impossible, how could I regard you as No. 8? You are not the same type. She has a much better figure than you."
iu became anxious: "I'm not discussing with you the difference between my figure and that size 8 figure."
Li Chenghao spread his hands: "I am also reasonably doubting whether what you said is true and credible."
"Whatever, anyway, you took me as No. 8 and asked me to be careful not to touch your left shoulder when taking off my clothes. That's how I saw your wound."
Nodding, Li Chenghao continued to drink porridge.
"How old are you? Do you still think you are still a student? You use violence to solve problems. If everyone is like you, then the police will have no reason to exist."
Finished the porridge
Li Chenghao wiped his mouth before speaking: "Isn't that how the old injuries on my arms came from?"
"Your old injury..."
iu stopped the car.
Li Chenghao induced her: "What about the old wounds?"
"I don't know how the old injury was caused, but it must have been caused by a fight in my school days."
"fight?"
"What if?"
iu never told the origin of Li Chenghao's old injury from beginning to end.
Last night, she heard very clearly that all the old injuries on her arms were caused by Li Shanhao in the past.
No wonder the two brothers were incompatible when they met. It turned out that Li Shanhao had been bullying Li Chenghao since he was a child.
Every scar, including how the cigarette scar was caused, was explained to iu.
The point is, his family still doesn’t know what Li Shanhao did to Li Chenghao. On the surface, Li Shanhao is an older brother who likes his younger brother very much. He is willing to give up everything to his younger brother and pretends to be very good.
These words were all spoken by Li Chenghao himself last night.
Changing the topic, IU looked at Li Chenghao: "Do you still remember what you and my dad said last night?"
"I didn't drink too much, of course I remember."
If he doesn't drink too much, he'll stagger while walking. If he doesn't drink too much, he'll shout for service on the 8th. If he doesn't drink too much, he'll fall asleep on his shoulder. If he doesn't drink too much, he'll tell himself the secrets he hides in his heart.
"You told my father that you would always take good care of me and not let me suffer any grievances."
"I just remember saying accept your flaws."
"Don't you tell me that I almost forgot that I have so many shortcomings?"
"more than"
"Forget it, I'm talking about what you said later when you were drinking with my dad."
Li Chenghao vaguely remembered that last night iu's father said a lot about iu's suffering as a child, and asked iu calmly on the surface: "So did I make you feel wronged?"
"That's not the point. The point is that you agreed to go fishing with my dad."
"Me?"
"Well, you also accompany me to visit my grandma every month."
"Did you tell me?"
"I told you that I would go to my cousin's house with me during the Mid-Autumn Festival to meet my relatives as my future son-in-law."
Li Chenghao was silent.
IU continued: "You also told my mother that you often helped the family make kimchi when you were a child. I can call you next time I make kimchi at home."
"I also said that in addition to real estate, you can consider the new media business and the semiconductor business. If my mother is interested, she can talk to you at any time and invest in projects together."
Li Chenghao tried hard to remember.
When I first arrived at iu's house, it was obvious that except for her grandma, it was a bit awkward to talk to anyone else.
After drinking, I felt relatively relaxed, and the content of the conversation was very ordinary. iu's father asked him what he thought of iu, and talked about some topics about hobbies and market investments, but most of the time Li Chenghao was the one listening.
Did he really say that much?
Although it is not an important commitment, this is not his style.
Will you become completely different after drinking too much?
I didn't seem to drink too much when I played with Choi Chenggen and the others before. Every time I drank enough, I would leave early, so I don't know what I will look like after drinking too much.
"哐啷"
When I came back to my senses, Iu had already gone to the kitchen to wash the dishes.
"What are you doing?"
"Wash the dishes. Whatever you want to eat for lunch, I'll make it for you."
Looking at iu's petite back, Li Chenghao said slowly: "Don't get the wrong idea. Yesterday I was just cooperating with your acting. Don't misunderstand that I like you, so you have to show me the appearance of a good wife and loving mother."
Iu said while washing the dishes: "Just think of it as thanking you for cooperating with me in acting last night. Is that okay?"
"grateful?"
After putting the dishes away, Iu wiped her hands and turned to look at Li Chenghao: "If you think it's wrong to say thank you, you can think that I'm sympathizing with you."
"pity?"
Iu said: "You are a grown man living alone with no one to take care of you, and there is nothing to eat in the refrigerator. Don't you deserve sympathy?"
But all I was thinking about were the special experiences that Li Chenghao mentioned last night from childhood to adulthood.
IU is the third person besides Cui Minjing and Lin Sangmin to know these things, and the first person to hear Li Chenghao take the initiative to reveal these past secrets.
She had to pretend not to know. Li Chenghao's previous temptation was actually to protect his self-esteem. If she knew, I'm afraid Li Chenghao would never see her again.
Li Chenghao didn't realize what Iu was worried about. Since he said it was sympathy, he should use his kindness more.
"Before you think about what to eat, you should clean up first. Pack up the clothes on the balcony and send them to the laundry. By the way, take back my clothes from the day before yesterday and hang them in the cloakroom."
"I want to wear the pair of brown leather shoes in the shoe cabinet tomorrow. Please clean them and apply oil on them, and..."
Iu walked to the dining table and put his hands on his hips: "I sympathize with you for not having enough to eat. I didn't come here to be a nanny."
"Then I did it myself? Hey, my left shoulder suddenly hurts. Should I take medicine half an hour after a meal or half an hour before a meal?"
Thumbs up, iu nodded: "Very good, I can do this, just consider it as fulfilling your wish."
"A wish is a wish, and sympathy is sympathy. This is the first time I have accepted sympathy from others. Are you sure you want to give up the opportunity to sympathize with me?"
"I'll help you clean and tidy up, and then I'll buy groceries and cook them for you, that's all."
"First help me take the tablet from the study to the living room, and then make a cup of green tea, thank you."
