Chapter 19 Chapter 19

When Jiu Jiu took Xu Dongmei home from the nursing home, Lao Xingtou was sitting at the entrance of the corridor, his eyes fixed on the gate, and there was a dark cloud on his forehead that anyone could see.

"Uncle Xing, happy Chinese New Year, do you have any activities tonight? Why don't you invite your girlfriends upstairs to see the Spring Festival Gala or something?" When I passed by for a long time, I said hello to old Xingtou, but I saw his eyes locked on the door. Department: "What are you looking at? My son is coming to pick you up?"

Old Xingtou was silent for a while, and waved his hand as if to throw something away in the air: "What are you picking up, those fake foreign devils, do you remember the Spring Festival? It's all nonsense."

Smiling for a long time, he lit a cigarette for him.

Old Xingtou took a puff of cigarette, and suddenly said to Xu Jiu: "Old Jiu, people, looking back and looking forward to something, is the greatest happiness. For someone or something, you can only live if you still have expectations. Meaning. Others, hey, three meals a day, porridge and side dishes are enough.”

Narrowing his eyes for a long time, he said with a smile, "It's cheap." The sound of burning tobacco sizzled in his ears.There was still no one at the gate, and he watched and watched with Lao Xingtou for a long time.

Neither of them made a sound, and finished smoking in silence.

When Lu Zhiyao wandered to the door of Jiujiu's house, every household in the whole street wafted an enticing aroma of food. It was obviously home-cooked food, but it superimposed the feeling of a gluttonous feast for a full feast of Manchurians.The dishes made by the professional chef-level servants of the Lu family can hardly pick out any flaws, but Bazhen Jade Food is no more than three taels of small dishes, this is the feeling of home.Lu Zhiyao just finished eating but still felt hungry.

The door was left for him for a long time, but Lu Zhiyao pushed the door in without knocking. The temperature of the floor heating made Lu Zhiyao warm from the soles of his feet to his forehead.

The TV in the living room was tuned to the channel of the Spring Festival Gala in advance, and there was no one on the sofa.Lu Zhiyao turned his head and found that Jiu Jiu and Xu Dongmei were crowded in the kitchen.

"Auntie, Happy New Year!" Lu Zhiyao leaned against the kitchen door, showing an intoxicating smile.

"Hey, Xiao Lu is here, you and Lao Jiu go out first, I still have a dish to cook, and I don't care if you two come to make dumplings in a while." Xu Dongmei laughed, and moved the dish deftly. Shuala" poured into the iron pan and stir-fried.

Lu Zhiyao saw that Jiu Jiu was pulling out a piece of beef brisket from the pot and blowing it on his mouth, as if he wanted to taste it.Lu Zhiyao flashed to Xu Jiu's side, bit off the beef brisket from Xu Jiu's chopsticks and stuffed it into his mouth.

"You!" Jiu Jiu adjusted the posture between his fingers and chopsticks, as if to beat him.

It's a pity that President Lu is too thick-skinned.

"Delicious! Auntie's craftsmanship is top-notch!" Lu Zhiyao said with a smile.

After a long time, he twisted his mouth: "I burned this!" Then he pushed Lu Zhiyao out and sat down in the living room together.

"Boss Lu is finally busy with a multi-million dollar project?" Jiu Jiu poured a cup of tea for Lu Zhiyao from the teapot and stuffed it into his hand.

Lu Zhiyao's long almond eyes were bent into a slit, showing the little lying silkworms under the eyes: "Are you still angry? I was really talking about something that day, and I didn't hang up on your phone on purpose."

"Am I so fussy? Do you like to pick it up or not." After a long time, he turned sideways angrily, holding a teacup and looking at Xu Dongmei in the kitchen.

Lu Zhiyao grabbed his face and forced him to look at him: "I also have a project worth hundreds of millions and want to talk to you. I wonder if Team Xu is free?"

Surprised for a long time: "With me? Talk nonsense, I don't do business."

Lu Zhiyao's pupils are brown, and his eyes are sharp and moving. When he looks at people, he has a sense of aggression that wants to drag them into his own world. to the chest and continue all the way down.

After a long time, he finally realized what Lu Zhiyao's so-called billion-dollar project was, and pushed his face away: "Are you courting death, kid?"

The hands of the two of them hooked each other and pushed each other's faces, and they were in the posture of kindergarten children fighting each other on the sofa.Xu Dongmei came out with the food at this time: "Hey, why are you still fighting during the Chinese New Year? You two must have eaten too much hormone to ripen it! Hurry up and go in and make dumplings."

The two children finally gave up.

He snorted for a long time: "Let's go! Go wash the flour!"

Lu Zhiyao rubbed his face that had been pinched and deformed for a long time, got up and followed.

Xu Dongmei looked bewildered: "What kind of flour do you wash? Can you two do it?"

In the kitchen, the hot air scorched Lu Zhiyao's face flushed.

Xu Dongmei had already chopped and mixed the dumpling fillings in advance, all she needed to do was roll out the dumpling wrappers with the dough.But Lu Zhiyao probably worked in the kitchen for the first time since he was a child. Based on the simple imagination of housework, Lu Zhiyao watched for a long time adding water to the flour to make up with the mood of watching an alien take a bath. Knead the dough by the handful.

After a long time, I saw Lu Zhiyao rolled up his sleeves, but he didn't know where to put his hands in embarrassment. He suddenly smiled and pulled Lu Zhiyao to the flour: "Come on, Mr. Lu, wash the flour."

Lu Zhiyao felt that his hand must be a prosthetic at this time, tremblingly picked up the dough ball, and squeezed it with the strength of embroidery.

Jiu Jiu: "...I asked you to knead the dough balls, not to kill chickens for the dough balls!"

Lu Zhiyao finally got the point of kneading dough, which is to put effort into it!

For a long time, he crossed his hands in front of his chest, with the posture of a chief supervisor torturing child labor.

Lu Zhiyao, who got the essentials, rubbed his face and asked, "What did you want to say to me that day, and you didn't want to say it until you got home?"

Leaning against the counter for a long time, her tone was calm: "I have already been kicked out of Shen Li's case."

"What the hell?" Lu Zhiyao tossed the flour aside, put his head in front of Jiu Jiu and asked in surprise.

"It hasn't been long since Yuanhong met Cao Wanhong." Xu Jiu said while picking up a small cucumber on the plate on the table with his fingers and took a bite.

Seeing that Lu Zhiyao was a little dull for a long time, he smiled: "You never thought that people from Yuanhong can stretch their arms so long."

Hearing this, Lu Zhiyao lowered his head in silence, and walked back to the table to continue kneading the flour.

Cao Wanhong is Cao Wanhong, but once he is connected with Yuanhong, he is inextricably related to Lu Zhiyao.After a long time, I saw that his mood had turned a little bit. I guessed that my words might hurt him a little. I approached Lu Zhiyao and said, "It's not against you. I never doubted you. I just want to tell you that if you are also investigating Cao Wanhong, you must be careful."

"Well, I know." Lu Zhiyao continued to lower his head and knead his face: "Then do you continue to check?"

"Of course! After I went to another group, Zhao Yi and the others were led to continue the investigation on the surface, but in fact there were many difficulties." After a long time sighed: "However, it's okay even if it's a little slower, I will definitely give her an explanation .”

"Chen Li?" Lu Zhiyao raised his head.

After a long time, he walked over and stood behind Lu Zhiyao, stretched out his hands from both sides of his waist to the kitchen counter, held him in his arms, and helped Lu Zhiyao knead the dough together, silent for a long time, in Lu Zhiyao's ear He said softly: "Someone told me today that the meaning of life is to have expectations. She is dead, but I know what she is looking forward to when she is alive."

Lu Zhiyao leaned back slightly, and asked in a low voice beside Jiu Jiu's cheek: "Then what do you do to me? Have you ever expected it?"

For a long time, he turned his head and looked at Lu Zhiyao's eyes without moving. He seemed to see all the expectations that he had failed in the eyes of that innocent girl eight years ago.

For a long time, he raised his hand and gently stroked Lu Zhiyao's eyes, and there was a silent uproar in his heart. The filth that had been hidden in his heart for more than 20 years was instantly flattened into a field of hope in Lu Zhiyao's clear eyes. Will the relationship between him and Lu Zhiyao come to an abrupt end because of the unspoken past, but he only wants a future that will last forever.

Thousands of words were thought in his heart, but what stuck in his throat was a strong love. He stopped his hand on the dough for a long time, retracted it and gently hugged Lu Zhiyao's waist, hugging him in his arms, head Resting on his shoulder, only two words remained: "Yes."

A warm current gushed out of Lu Zhiyao's heart, and without hesitation for a second, he turned around and kissed his neck that had been hugged for a long time.

This kiss no longer tasted the sting and the feathers, it was delicate and tender, and there was a little bit of heartbreak.Lu Zhiyao gently sucked and bit his lips for a long time, once and for all, like a curious child, tasting all the bitterness and sweetness in the world.

Jiu Jiu pushed him lightly, but Lu Zhiyao didn't let go, and retreated for a long time, only to be supported by Lu Zhiyao's hand on his back.Xu Dui finally couldn't resist the affection of "Overbearing President Lu" and was captured inch by inch by his kiss. He held him tightly with open palms and kissed him back deeply.

In the narrow space, the lips and teeth intertwined intensely and hotly, Jiujiu's strength was much stronger than Lu Zhiyao's, and it didn't take long for him to hug Lu Zhiyao's waist before kissing Mr. Lu slightly backward.However, Lu is always a technical player, and his kissing skills make people stand out. He exclusively demonstrates what is an anti-scientific skill that can make people lose control just by kissing with tongue. live.

Jiu Jiu squinted at the living room with his remaining rationality, afraid of being seen by Xu Dongmei.He quickly hugged Lu Zhiyao with the strength of his wrist, let him sit on the inner counter, stood between Lu Zhiyao's legs for a long time, raised his head and kissed him intoxicatedly.

The temperature in the kitchen was scorching, and the inseparable sound of wetness and slippery spread depressingly in the kitchen.

It was really depressing, panting, Lu Zhiyao lowered his head and kissed Jiu Jiu's neck, leaving a deep hickey.

"Hiss... don't light the fire!" After being sucked by him for a long time, he was a little lost, and his body shrank back a bit. Lu Zhiyao didn't intend to stop, and hugged his back tightly into his arms.

Gritting his teeth for a long time, he whispered, "Lu Zhiyao, what exactly do you want!"

Lu Zhiyao felt all the reactions from Jiujiu's body, he kissed Jiujiu's mouth, showed his captivating smile and said, "I want everything related to you, sweet, sour, bitter, and spicy. "

After saying this, Lu Zhiyao suddenly felt a little sad.I thought to myself, among the five flavors of life that are sour, sweet, bitter, hot and salty, and the seven emotions of joy, anger, worry, thought, sorrow, and fear, only one is sweet and one is joy. Looking at the smiling eyes of his sweetheart, Lu Zhiyao, who is in love, has never had this feeling, but at this time, it is so clear and strong.

Lu Zhiyao pressed against Jiu Jiu's forehead, and asked him softly: "The moment you saved me, I knew I couldn't let go again. What I told you that night in Nanke was true, why can't you give me a chance? "His soft voice caused a slight sad numbness in Jiujiu's heart.

After listening to this for a long time, she gently closed her eyes, and leaned her forehead on his shoulder: "Have you ever thought about whether you want to be with me because you really like me, or because Shen Li gave you about me?" My memory, what do you want to do for her and for me to keep this relationship going?"

Lu Zhiyao was sitting on the countertop, with his arms around his shoulders for a long time, but when he heard this, he suddenly dropped down and propped himself on the countertop behind him.

It is impossible to say that I have been chasing him for a long time, and that this matter has nothing to do with Shen Li.But when Xu Jiu asked, he never asked himself. He originally thought that no matter whether it was himself or Shen Li who gave him the memory, they were all in love for a long time anyway. What difference could there be?

But when Xu Jiu asked this question, he realized that this answer, Jiu Jiu was very concerned about it, and he wanted to understand it himself.

For a long time, he seemed to have guessed Lu Zhiyao's reaction, smiled helplessly, kissed Lu Zhiyao's eyes, and hugged him easily with his wrist.The two remained silent until they finished kneading the dough, woke up, and rolled out the dough.

Xu Dongmei saw that the two of them were lingering and hadn't seen the dumplings, so they went into the kitchen and made dumplings together. Seeing that the two of them didn't speak for a while, and the atmosphere was awkward, Xu Dongmei was a little puzzled, thinking that the two silly sons were still in the kindergarten. Did not graduate.

Fortunately, food is the best medicine to heal the mood. Although Lu Zhiyao's works between gnocchi and meat pimples are a bit unappetizing, but fortunately, Xu Dongmei's stuffing is a must. Lu Zhiyao seems to eat Reaching the taste of childhood, every time I entered the mouth, my eyes couldn't help squinting, watching him for a long time under the light of the dining table, his eyelashes were dyed golden, and raised his hand to wipe the flour on the tip of his nose.Although there were three people for a meal, Lu Zhiyao felt very lively. After eating comfortably, after eleven o'clock, Xu Dongmei reluctantly bid farewell to the hosts of the Spring Festival Gala who were not yet off work.

After watching Xu Dongmei go upstairs for a long time, he said to Lu Zhiyao: "It's late today, you can sleep in my room, I'll make do with the small bed in the study, okay?"

Lu Zhiyao's language function seemed to have been hit by a thousand points, he was stunned for a while, and said, "I sleep in the study."

For a long time, I saw that Lu Zhiyao cherished words like gold as if he had aphasia, so he didn't say anything, took his hand in silence, went to the bathroom to wait for him to wash his hair, carried a quilt to the bed in the study room, turned around and went back to the room asleep.

Lu Zhiyao was lying in the study on the north side of the first floor, staring at the dark ceiling.There is a small river to the north of Xu Jiu’s house. I didn’t realize it when I came here, but I heard the sound of the river beating against the wall very clearly at night. I lost my vision in the dark night, and I felt like a boat floating on the river just by hearing. Somewhat lonely.

After waking up all night and sleeping until early morning, the room was filled with gray-blue light, and the curtains fluttered slightly. Lu Zhiyao sat on the small bed for a while, then got up and walked to the room for a long time, and lay down beside him.

After a long time, he suddenly woke up, turned around and pulled him into his arms through the quilt, looking at his eyes that were red because he didn't sleep well: "What's wrong?"

Lu Zhiyao hugged the quilt tightly for a long time, wrapped him into a big navy blue plaid cocoon, rubbed his chin on his head, kissed his forehead deeply, and said in a hoarse voice: "I go first."

"……Um."

Lu Zhiyao turned over and got out of bed, and it took him a long time to let out the pent-up breath until the door closed "Gada".

He actually started to get scared, afraid that Lu Zhiyao would never come back if he walked out of this door.
