Chapter 240 Shen Wanning returns home, Aunt Shen calls Lu Jinchuan, Lu Jinchuan is here - 2
It has been a long time, so long that it seems as if time has frozen at this moment. They haven't sat face to face like this for a long time. The warm time they used to share their thoughts and have dinner together seems to have become a distant memory. But at this moment, he is still handsome, his handsome face and deep eyes make people's heart beat.
She stared at him quietly as he was eating quietly, her mind full of thoughts, but the two of them remained silent and no one spoke first to break the silence.
"Why are you here?" Finally, she couldn't hold back her curiosity and asked first.
However, in the face of her question, he still said nothing, just lowered his head and continued to chew the food in his mouth. Seeing that he did not respond, she stopped asking. For a moment, the only sound in the room was the occasional slight collision of tableware.
After a long while, he slowly put down the bowl and chopsticks in his hands and said softly: "Aunt said you locked yourself in your room every day. She was afraid that something might happen to you, so she called me and asked if we had a fight?" If it wasn't for his aunt's call, he wouldn't have known she was back. He looked for her in many places, but she was not there. No one knew where she went. He was a little angry, really.
Hearing his explanation, she couldn't help but feel a little guilty, and quickly whispered, "Oh, sorry to bother you, I didn't tell them about us." She didn't want her family to worry about her. She was fine, she was really fine, she was fine. She just felt a little more lonely and sad.
"By the way, how did you find this place?" She suddenly remembered this crucial question, and was filled with doubts. Her home was still some distance from the station. She remembered that the last time they met was purely accidental, but why did they meet this time?
"I met an old lady who said she was your neighbor." He explained with a smile, a hint of relief flashing in his eyes. If he hadn't met the old lady, he really didn't know what to do.
"Oh, so when are you going back?" I knew he was busy and wouldn't stay for long, so I was already very grateful that he came.
"The day after tomorrow, I have to fly to the United States the day after tomorrow. Yaolin is getting married." Zhu Yaolin is getting married, and the invitation letter has already been sent, inviting him to come, and inviting him to bring her with him.
"Is she getting married? That's great." She was slightly stunned when she heard the news. Getting married? She envied those who were willing to walk into the marriage hall, at least giving herself a chance to love someone seriously.
"Come with me." His words were like a gentle breeze blowing past my ears, carrying a hint of expectation and earnestness.
"I..." The words came to her lips but she hesitated. Shen Wanning bit her lip, her heart was in turmoil. Going back together? What did it mean? Her eyes fell on him involuntarily, trying to find the answer from his eyes.
Just then, the door opened and it turned out that Wan Ning's parents came back from get off work.
As soon as she entered the door, Li Wanrong said in surprise: "Xiao Lu, you are here."
His eyes then fell on Lu Jinchuan's slightly thin face, and he asked with concern: "Why are you thinner? Is it because of working too hard?"
Lu Jinchuan quickly stood up and politely greeted the two elders: "Uncle, Aunt."
Lu Jinchuan smiled and explained, "The company has a lot of projects recently, so it might be a little busy, but it's okay."
Shen Mingyao smiled and nodded, motioning him to sit down. Then he turned to look at his daughter and said in a slightly reproachful tone, "Wan Ning, why don't you go get Xiao Lu a glass of water? He has come all the way here, don't neglect him."
Shen Wanning muttered softly, "He's not thirsty."
"This kid." Li Wanrong looked at her daughter and gently scolded her. People had already come over, but this girl was still sulking there! I don't know what she was sulking about.
"You guys play, I'll go cook." Li Wanrong shook her head helplessly, then turned around and took out the fresh vegetables she had just bought from the kitchen, preparing to start cooking dinner. After all, it would be better for old men and women like them not to get involved in such matters between young people.
"Mom, I'll help you." Shen Wanning followed her mother to the kitchen, not wanting to stay with him. It had been a month since she last saw him or talked to him.
6:20
"Come, it's time to eat." Li Wanrong finally brought the last steaming soup to the table and warmly invited everyone to take a seat and eat.
"Come on, Xiao Lu, eat more. This pickled fish head is your favorite." Li Wanrong said, and used a spoon to scoop a large piece of tender and plump fish meat and put it into Lu Jinchuan's bowl.
"Mom?" Shen Wanning called out cautiously, staring at him in front of her. She couldn't help but wonder: Would he like to eat pickled fish head? How come she had no impression of him at all?
Sitting across the table, he smiled and responded, "Thank you, auntie." He likes pickled fish head? Did he say he likes it?
He picked up a piece of fish with chopsticks and put it into his mouth and chewed it gently. A familiar taste spread on the tip of his tongue, and his eyes lit up and he exclaimed: "Not bad, it tastes very similar to what my mother cooks."
Seeing this, Shen Mingyao on the side greeted him enthusiastically: "Come on, come on, eat more. We are in our own home, don't be polite!" As he said that, he kept putting food into his bowl, completely disregarding his daughter's feelings.
Seeing her parents treat this man so attentively, Shen Wanning couldn't help but pout and grumble, "Mom and Dad, I'm jealous of you guys!" She really couldn't figure out what the charm of this man was. Was he so likable?
Hearing her daughter's complaint, Shen's mother glared at her in anger and said, "You girl, hurry up and eat."
After dinner, everyone sat in the living room to rest for a while. Because the two old people had to go to work tomorrow, they went to bed early. But he didn't have the habit of going to bed so early. He stood in front of the window, looking through the glass, thinking about his worries.
I heard that she was back, so I followed her here.
Aunt Shen said that she stayed in her room every day, staring at their photos. Their photos? There were so many of them in her room. He had been here before, because many people knew him, and her parents thought they just had a fight, so they didn't come back together. It all looked so natural, without any trace of disguise. Did they get along well before?
A breeze gently blew across the windowsill, bringing a hint of coolness, blowing on his cheek, as if blowing into his troubled heart.
"Ding dong."
I saw that she had just finished taking a shower, and her body still exuded a faint scent of shower gel. Her hair was wet and draped over her shoulders, and crystal water droplets slid down her hair and dripped onto her fair skin.
"Do you have a hair dryer?" Seeing that she didn't seem to want to dry her hair, Lu Jinchuan couldn't help but ask. Although the weather was not particularly cold at this time, wet hair sticking to the scalp always made people feel uncomfortable.
"Yes." Shen Wanning answered with a puzzled look. What did he need a hair dryer for?
"Here." A pink hair dryer was handed to Lu Jinchuan.
"Sit down." Lu Jinchuan took the hair dryer and motioned for her to sit next to him.
"What?" Shen Wanning looked at him in surprise, and couldn't help wondering: Is he going to help her blow dry her hair? She wanted to tell him that there was no need to pretend that they had a good relationship. After all, she had never told her family the truth about their relationship, and she was just afraid that her parents would worry about it. However, what she didn't expect was that her mother would suddenly call him.
"Help you blow dry your hair." Lu Jinchuan said unhappily. What else could he do now that it had come to this?
"No need, I can do it myself." Shen Wanning struggled to do it herself, but was stopped by Lu Jinchuan.
"Just sit still and don't move." Although Lu Jinchuan's tone was a bit tough, the movements of his hands were extremely gentle.
"Okay." Lu Jinchuan carefully used the hair dryer to dry every strand of Shen Wanning's hair. Finally, he nodded with satisfaction, put away the hair dryer and put it aside.
"Thank you." Shen Wanning's voice was as soft as a mosquito, as if she was afraid of disturbing the tranquility of the moment. This thank you was not only for the small matter of helping Lu Jinchuan blow dry his hair, but also included gratitude for all his efforts.
"Actually, there's no need to force yourself. I didn't tell them because I was afraid they would worry about me. I'm sorry for making you make such a trip." Shen Wanning said carefully, because he seemed unhappy again. What's wrong with him?
However, at this moment, the person opposite suddenly asked: "Shen Wanning, do you miss me?" Do you miss me? Just like that, he left without saying goodbye, without saying when he would return, and without saying where he was going.
"You shouldn't ask me this question." Shen Wanning turned her head away. How could he do this? He asked her if she missed him?
Suddenly, a memory came to her mind. Not long ago, the same scene reappeared before her eyes. At that time, he also asked her if she missed him. Was she going to be ruthlessly deprived of even her right to miss him?
"Did you miss me?" Lu Jinchuan leaned over slightly, gently turned her face with both hands, and made her face him. However, when he saw her delicate face clearly, he was surprised to find that she was already in tears. Lu Jinchuan, what are you doing? Forcing her to miss you?
"Hmm?" Lu Jinchuan's low and magnetic voice sounded, with a hint of imperceptible coaxing. His eyes, as deep as a pool of water, locked onto her tightly, as if he wanted to see through her tearful eyes to see through her true thoughts.
"No." She shook her head stubbornly, her lips trembling as she uttered these two words. However, only she knew in her heart that this was just a lie to herself. How great it would be if she really could stop missing him!
"You're lying." Lu Jinchuan whispered softly, as if he had seen through the secret in her heart. He leaned over and gently kissed her trembling lips. The kiss was as light as a dragonfly touching the water at first, but gradually became passionate. He used the tip of his tongue to gently pry open her tightly closed teeth and entangled with her small clove tongue.
"I missed you." Just when both of their breathing became rapid, Lu Jinchuan suddenly moved away from her lips slightly and whispered in her ear.
His breath sprayed on her sensitive earlobe, causing a tingling sensation. He did not leave her lips, but continued to kiss and suck gently, carefully tracing the shape of her seductive lips.
When she heard Lu Jinchuan say "I miss you", she suddenly felt a complex emotion. Did he say he was thinking about her?
In this quiet night, no one can tell who took the initiative to approach the other first, and who first said the affectionate "I love you". It was late at night, the moonlight fell like water in front of the window, and the house was filled with a warm and ambiguous atmosphere.
Everything happened so naturally, and the two hearts embraced each other tightly and intertwined at this moment.
In the early morning, the sunlight sneaked into the room through the gaps in the thin curtains, and the birds chirped happily on the branches.
She felt exhausted and turned over subconsciously, but unexpectedly saw Lu Jinchuan sleeping beside her. He was lying there quietly, one hand on her waist, and his handsome face was particularly charming in the morning light. She stared at him, and for a moment she was a little dazed, unable to tell whether the scene in front of her was real or illusory.
"Awake?" Seeing her slowly opening her eyes, Lu Jinchuan raised his lips slightly and greeted her softly. After that, he leaned down gently and placed a gentle good morning kiss on her smooth forehead.
