Eternal Burning - Chapter 37
[Chapter 37 He Can’t Be Tamed By Me At All]
On the rectangular dining table, Shang Muxiao and I sit on the side, and Fang Qinian and Shang Yunrou sit on the side, leaving the top seat for Shang Lu.
Shang Yunrou was really well-bred, and she didn’t drive me out with such an ugly face. She recruited servants to set the dishes and treated me like a normal guest.
I actually didn’t want to stay, but I didn’t even know where the gate was, and I couldn’t leave if I wanted to, so I had to swallow the embarrassment for the time being and wait and see.
“Dead shemale, who allowed you to touch my stuff?” Since there was no meal yet, the servant only served some fruit to satisfy his hunger. Shang Muxiao bit down an apple and pointed the metal fork at Fang Qinian, his tone. Very negative.
“It came to find me on its own.” Fang Qinian couldn’t pick out any faults in his clothes or outfits. He could go up the stairs to take pictures of the calendars of the Republic of China-style beauties. play.
If he said the same thing when he saw Yang Haiyang, then I can only say that Yang Haiyang is indeed a straight man, so he doesn’t even doubt his gender.
“How are you, cheapskate.” After that, Fang Qinian lifted the egg yolk and put it on the ground.
In just an instant, the originally well-behaved and quiet little dog turned into a screaming chicken, dragging its hind legs around like a headless fly.
Shang Yunrou had never seen such a dog before, she said with a shocked expression, “What’s wrong with it?”
“Before, I had bad legs and was spoiled. Now it’s very squeamish and refuses to walk at all.” Shang Muxiao She raised her hand and said in a loud voice, “Sister Wang, come here and take the dog up.”
Sister Wang agreed, and hurriedly stepped forward and picked up the egg yolk into her arms, and took a few steps upstairs.
Without the screams of the little dog, the restaurant was quiet for a while.
Shang Yunrou glanced at the time and said, “Dad should be back soon, let’s serve it. Professor Bei, do you have any taboos?”
Compared with the first time she met me, she was obviously a lot more polite, even They all called me “Professor Bei” instead, and it can be said that the attitude is quite clear.
“No.” I said.
Shang Yunrou nodded, summoned a servant, and notified the kitchen to serve dishes.
The cold dishes were served one after another, and Shang Lu didn’t return. Shang Yunrou picked up the phone irritably, as if to make a call. At this moment, the landline in the living room rang.
Sister-in-law Wang ran to answer the call, hung up after a few sentences, and then came over to inform everyone that Shang Lu had a social party temporarily and couldn’t get away from it, so he wouldn’t come back for dinner, so that everyone didn’t have to wait for him.
Shang Muxiao snorted coldly, and said to Fang Qinian, “I won’t come back on New Year’s Eve, do you think he got married outside? Or found a… woman who is more like you?” Fang Cai
was still smiling . , The man who seemed to be worried about Shang Muxiao’s vicious words suddenly sank his face, put down the teacup in his hand, and said coldly: “Whoever provokes you, go to whom, don’t put your anger on me. ”
Isn’t that why the man didn’t come back?”
“Oh, then I’ll wait to see you talk to him like this tomorrow.”
“You…”
“Okay!” Yunrou couldn’t see it, so she just snorted.
Silence was restored all over again. Although Shang Muxiao’s face was hesitant, he still obediently did not quarrel with Fang Qinian.
“Since he won’t come back, then I’ll go up and change my clothes.” Fang Qinian stood up and went upstairs.
I stared at his back, and I felt a sense of absurdity that had nowhere to say – Shang Lu was simply crazy, and normal people couldn’t do such a thing.
“What are you looking at?” Shang Muxiao’s unhappy voice came from the side, and in the next second, his face was cut off, “Is it beautiful?” Shang Muxiao asked with a stingy smile on his face.
In the past, I would always coax him and let him. After all, I am much older than him, but today I am suddenly a little tired.
So I replied, “Well, it’s beautiful.”
The corners of his eyes twitched, staring at me with a terrifying expression, as if I couldn’t believe that I thought Fang Qinian was beautiful.
I stopped looking at him, looked away, and focused on the tea in front of me.
He wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Shang Yunrou’s soft cough.
As if nothing happened and nothing was seen, Shang Yunrou raised her glass and said with a slight smile, “Let’s eat first. Come on, I wish everyone a happy New Year.
” Eyes, raise the glass.
“Happy New Year!” He said without much thought, and he drank the white wine in his glass in one gulp.
After hesitating for a moment, I also raised my glass and said, “Happy New Year.” After I finished speaking, I also drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.
There are not many people in the business, but there are a lot of dishes, and the appearance is even more exquisite. Unfortunately, I really have no appetite. I just drink cup by cup and rarely use chopsticks.
Seeing that a bottle of dry white was about to be drunk by me, Fang Qinian came here. The heavy makeup has been removed from his face, and his body has been changed into a home sweater and trousers, completely transformed into the handsome young man I have seen in school.
And with his arrival, the silent dining table became a topic of conversation. He asked about Shang Yunrou’s recent work situation and love life, and Shang Yunrou answered them one by one. The two had a smooth conversation and seemed to get along well.
“What does Professor Bei teach?” Fang Qinian might be afraid that my guest would be bored, so he suddenly turned the subject to me.
Hey, in fact, he can pretend that I don’t exist.
“Philosophy.” I finished my drink in two mouthfuls and said.
“Philosophy.” Fang Qinian said in surprise, “I like Plato’s “Utopia” very much. This is a book full of wisdom and philosophy. We can discuss it when we have the opportunity.”
I smiled and asked: “If there is really Utopia, do you want to go?”
“Go.” Fang Qinian said without hesitation, “I’m curious if the Philosopher King can really rule a country.”
Socrates always believed that only philosophers can be good kings, otherwise mankind will never have peace. But the fact is that philosophers are often too idealistic, naive, and habitually miserable in politics, with no good end.
“No, philosophers can’t be good politicians.” I’m not optimistic.
Fang Qinian laughed: “So it’s an ideal country.”
The servant holding the wine bottle wanted to pour me some wine again. Shang Muxiao covered the glass with his palm and asked her to replace it with water.
I didn’t care, I just didn’t know, but I didn’t touch the glass of water again.
Aside from the bad opening, the meal was actually good, the dishes were good, the wine was good, and Fang Qinian was also good. However, Shang Muxiao should feel that it is not very good. After a meal, the air pressure on his side is getting lower and lower, and in the end, a real cloud is almost condensed.
It’s not even eight o’clock when I drink tea after my meal. Normally, I should sit down again, but it is very strange for me to come to eat in my capacity. If I can’t sit again, how can Shang Yunrou scold me in her heart.
I was thinking about how to go, but the Shang Muxiao started to ask the servants to prepare the guest room.
“What to do in the guest room?” Shang Yunrou asked.
“I’ve been drinking and can’t drive. It’s so late, and I don’t worry about the teacher going back alone.” Shang Muxiao looked at me, his eyes seemed to be full of tenderness, and there was nothing wrong with his words, “I just want the teacher to go back today. Stay here later and leave tomorrow.”
No, it’s not that you don’t worry about me, you’re just not angry with your dad, you’re unwilling, and you want me to stay and continue to perform “Shake the Face” tomorrow.
“Teacher, are you alright?” He came over and took my hand, again pretending to be pleading.
He knew that I would take this trick, that I would be used to him and that it would be difficult to refuse, so he became more and more unscrupulous and arrogant.
I could have just thrown off his hand and left, or slapped the word “not good” in his face to see how he responded, but I didn’t.
Maybe alcohol didn’t work so well for me either. I stared at him and suddenly went crazy too.
“Okay.” I nodded in agreement, wanting to see where things could go.
Shang Yunrou’s expression became very exciting, Fang Qinian was still calm, but there was a smile that saw through everything on the corners of his lips.
“Then live downstairs, it’s convenient downstairs.” Fang Qinian said with his tea cup in hand, “Fortunately, the items in Mr. Shang’s fractured fashion last year were not dismantled, so it’s fate.”
Shang Yunrou took a deep breath, Appears to be patient.
“Then I’ll stay, too,” she said.
Later, Fang Qinian proposed to watch a movie and asked if anyone was with him, but no one responded, he shrugged and went to the basement by himself.
The servant quickly tidied up the guest room, and after greeting Shang Yunrou, Shang Muxiao pushed me through the living room, walked a short distance, and entered a large suite.
As Fang Qinian said, next to the soft and tidy big bed, the armrests for getting up have not been removed. It seems that Shang Lu injured his leg last year.
“Okay, let’s go out.” I ordered the eviction directly.
After a long silence behind him, Shang Muxiao didn’t go out. Instead, he gently embraced me from behind and said in a sweet and well-behaved tone, “Teacher, are you angry?”
His lips were close to my ear, Every time I say a word, I feel a tingling.
“Your family is already so wonderful, you really don’t need me to add to it.” I turned my face away to avoid his entanglement.
He paused, tightened his arms, and persevered and leaned back again: “I really want to use our affairs to piss my dad off and let him know that I’m not a doll in his hands, and he will resist, but this is only one of them. Mainly, I still want to take you to meet my family and spend New Year’s Eve with you.”
“I didn’t tell you beforehand, I knew you would definitely not agree. If you’re angry about this, then I apologize to you. I’m sorry, forgive me. Come on.”
Every time he apologized, he was very refreshing, and he seemed to know that as long as he lowered his body and spit out the words “I’m sorry”, even the most angry person would not be able to continue to be angry at his face.
And the result of forgiveness is too easy, which makes it difficult for him to feel guilty. “Apologizing” is just a simple and convenient tool he uses to settle conflicts, and he doesn’t really feel “sorry”.
He’s only 20 years old, and he has everything anyone else wants at his fingertips, money, looks, attention. It came so easily that he didn’t care, including me.
He will only cherish those hard-to-have and hard-won things, such as family affection, such as Shang Yunrou.
This realization left me exhausted from the inside out, and my head hurt.
A bad owl is always a bad owl. How could I have thought that he would be completely transformed after being obedient for a while? There is no way he could be tamed by me.
Sighing secretly, I said, “Go out first, your sister will knock on the door later.”
I wasn’t ready to accept his apology, and I didn’t want to quarrel with him here, so I decided to have an ostrich mentality, Put the matter on hold for now and talk about it later tonight.
“Mu Xiao, is the room okay?” Shang Yunrou really worried about us, almost as soon as I finished speaking, she went outside. But still restrained, did not break in.
“It looks like he was being watched by the ‘teaching director’.” He smiled and put a kiss on my cheek, stood up and said, “I’ll come back to you when she falls asleep, remember to leave the door for me.”
I turned around Looking, Shang Muxiao walked to the door in a few steps, opened the door and saw Shang Yunrou, half-jokingly said, “Sister, do you want to monitor me?”
“What nonsense!” Shang Yunrou quickly swept over me I glanced at it, as if to confirm whether we had done anything inappropriate for children just now.
The door was gently closed by Shang Muxiao, and the sound of conversation gradually moved away from the door.
After confirming that both of them were gone, I controlled the wheelchair to the door and locked the door.
On the bed were clean pajamas that looked like new. I took it into the bathroom, and I was stunned as soon as I entered the door. The barrier-free facilities in it are almost better than those in my own home.
After taking a hot shower, everyone felt a little more relaxed when they came out of the bathroom.
Passing by the door, I inadvertently glanced at the door lock, and thought about it, when Shang Muxiao entered, he might have to pry the door, and he didn’t know that he would make a lot of noise. After hesitating again and again, the door was not locked in the end.
With a little drunk, I went to bed early.
I fell asleep in the middle of the night when I suddenly felt someone touching me. When I opened my eyes, it was still dark, and I could only see a vague figure beside the bed.
I thought it was Shang Muxiao, so I didn’t say a word, and let his cool palm stroke my face and neck. Before the half-awake brain could recall the unpleasantness with him, the body had already subconsciously snuggled up to him.
The figure also came closer, with the smell of unfamiliar perfume on his body.
I frowned, my consciousness regained a little bit, and I felt that something was wrong.
Just when I was trying to think about what was wrong, a deep, magnetic voice suddenly came from the darkness.
“Why did you sleep under it today?”
I woke up suddenly, and my whole body froze.
What’s wrong? Completely wrong, this is not Shang Muxiao at all!
