Deluge - Chapter 59

[Chapter 59]

The year Xu Juan was born was when Xu Jiren was the busiest. He grew up a little bit, but Xu Jiren was still busy until he was an adult. Adding up all the time he spent with his father at home, it probably wouldn’t be long.

After the age of 20, before graduating from university, Xu Juan moved out and lived on his own.

When he was young, although Xu Juan didn’t mention it, he occasionally complained in his heart, why didn’t his family understand him? No one ever takes care of his inner feelings, they only give money, they only make demands, they don’t ask “Do you like it or not”, and they don’t care about his thoughts.

He used to be unhappy about this, but he thought in his heart that there was nothing wrong with this model. As long as he followed this route, he could become a successful person like his brother.

The motivation that supported him to study various courses at that time actually came from his admiration for his father and brother – the

best boy is Mu Qiang. Before the age of 20, he habitually regarded Xu Jiren and Xu Zhouyi as the goal of hard work. They were on the same page, but the more they grew up, the more shaken they became, and gradually began to think about “who I am” and “why should I learn from others”, so he wanted to find his own way.

However, his own path is not so easy to walk. He has tried, failed, and hesitant, and now he is barely successful. Although this level of success is not worth mentioning, he can only support himself, and there may be new opportunities in the future. risks of.

But what’s not risky?

Life is a process of constant change. Things rise and fall, people grow old, get sick, and die. It is enough to do well in the present moment and cherish the people in front of you.

As if reporting on his work, Xu Juan told his father about his experiences and thoughts in the past few years.

This is a high-end ward. Xu Jiren was leaning on the bedside to read, but when he saw Xu Juan coming, he took some free time to listen to him. He was very pleased at first, but when Xu Juan talked about his feelings, Xu Jiren was not very happy. .

No one is perfect, Xu Jiren is undoubtedly wiser than Xu Juan, but he also has his own limitations. He cannot understand and accept homosexuality. In the past, Xu Juan was playing around outside, but he was too lazy to care. Now when it comes to marriage, it is inevitable that he will mind. .

However, if you mind, he will not be able to do anything, so it would be disgraceful to oppose it too fiercely. At most, he beat Xu Juan a few times, and asked Xu Juan to be more careful, and reminded him several times over and over again: Is it appropriate for you to spend a lifetime with a man? You two can’t have children, won’t you regret it when you get old?

These issues are not new at all, Xu Juan thought about it, but didn’t think about it, because he didn’t care about issues such as inheritance.

What age is his father? What era is he from? The ideological gap created by the times is difficult to eliminate. He does not require his family to understand him now, he will communicate well, and if he cannot communicate, forget it.

He has figured out that relatives do not necessarily become confidants, and even if they cannot understand each other in some things, they still love him and he loves them, so that’s fine.

Xu Juan had nothing else to ask for.

The same is true for Pei Yu’s family. He doesn’t expect Pei Yu’s mother to like him and not drive him out of the house.

Thinking of this, Xu Juan asked cautiously before leaving the ward: “Dad, can I bring him to see you?”

He Xiangzi was sitting beside the bed peeling an apple, and glared at him when she heard the words.

Xu Jiren sighed, he couldn’t say it at first, but after thinking about it, he let go: “Forget it, you can bring him here, your father may not live long, I will give you a face.”

“…”

One sentence almost brought Xu back again Tears trickled down.

That night, Xu Juan went back and called Pei Yu for more than an hour. When talking about it, Pei Yu said, “Before someone gets married, the parents on both sides will meet first. This is a tradition, you know?”

“I’ve heard of it.” Xu Juan said, “But when my parents meet your mother, the scene will definitely be embarrassing. Forget it for the time being. I guess they don’t want to.”

Pei Yu admitted: “Yes, in fact, my mother doesn’t even want to see you.”

“Then how did you convince her?”

“Tell me the truth.” Pei Yu paused, his tone lighter, “I said that in my life I only have You are one, I recognize whether it is good or bad, my mother has no choice but to accept it.”

“…”

Pei Yu is different from Xu Juan, he is used to regular rules, never out of line, and occasionally out of line once more lethal Big, what the hell is Pei Yu feeling, Xu Juan knows without guessing.

But because of this, she can better understand Pei Yu’s determination.

In any case, the reason is easy to understand, but tension is still unavoidable.

The next day, Xu Juan set aside an afternoon to buy gifts, and then drove to Hongda early to wait for Pei Yu to get off work.

He came here once, and they hadn’t reconciled last time. He pretended to be a student and sneaked into Mr. Pei’s class.

Today, he repeated his old tricks, left things in the car, slipped into the classroom lightly, and sat in the back row of a group of girls.

When Pei Yu saw him, he was first surprised, then frowned, and glared at him several times during the class, because he had been secretly playing with his mobile phone under the desk. In fact, others were playing, but Pei Yu only targeted him, halfway through He also stepped off the podium and confiscated his cell phone.

“…”

Xu Juan couldn’t tell because he had nothing to do in the second half of the class, so he could only stare at Teacher Pei. He thought he could stare at Pei Yu nervously and blush, but Pei Yu was more dedicated than he thought, finished the class as usual, packed up his things, and could leave work.

“Hey, why are you unhappy?” Walking from the teaching building to the parking lot, Xu Juan tightened his scarf and turned to look at Pei Yu.

The crowd of people after school was crowded together in the campus, making a lot of noise. Seeing that a group of girls rushed to the side, they almost bumped into Xu Juan, and Pei Yu immediately pulled him and dragged him to his side. He was really unhappy. , asked him: “How do you always know where I am in class?”

“I have eyeliner.” Xu Juan said with a smile, “Spy, didn’t you think of it?”

“…”

Pei Yu glanced at him: “Who? Tang Sisi?”

Xu Juan choked: “It’s boring to guess so accurately, Teacher Pei.

Pei Yu snorted: “Didn’t you say that you are nervous to see my mother? I think you are fine, not nervous at all, and still have the energy to come to my class to make fun.” Xu

Juan felt guilty and could not refute, Pei Yu said again, “My mother asked me to buy a bottle of soy sauce when I get home, and we’ll go to the supermarket later.”

“Okay.”

Xu Juan’s scarf slipped down again. To help him untie it, and tie it again.

Pei Yu is an influential figure in Hongda, and he has a very high rate of turning heads wherever he goes. He is so close to Xu Juan in broad daylight, and more people are looking at them, Xu Juan is a little afraid of affecting him: “Let’s do it this way. It’s not good to move your feet.”

“Why not?” Pei Yu directly took Xu Juan’s hand and dragged him forward, “I’m not afraid, what are you afraid of?”

“I’m not afraid either.”

” Then you still say such meaningless words?”

Pei Yu’s eyes slanted over and looked at him like a warning, Xu Juan felt wronged: “You are so fierce, Mr. Pei, I am obviously for your own good, but you still teach me.”

“There’s no need for this ‘for my own good’, you just—” Pei Yu suddenly grabbed his scarf, dragged him all over himself, and gave him a quick kiss, “Just love me well.”

“…”

Xu Juan heard a gasping voice behind him. A girl pressed her voice and shouted, “Oh my god!” The tone was so shocking that he, who has always been cheeky, couldn’t help but face Shang was so embarrassed that his ears turned red.

But Pei Yu took the car key from his hand, unlocked it, sat in the co-pilot, and handed it back to him: “Let’s go, let’s go buy soy sauce.”
