What makes you think I will always like you?

After folding a rose, Chen Lu handed it to Liang Zhirou as usual.

In front of the child, Liang Zhirou pursed her lips in embarrassment. Seeing that Chen Lu insisted on giving it to her, she finally had to reach out and take it with a happy smile on her lips.

"...I suddenly want to study." Chen Yunqi picked up his schoolbag and left.

"Wait a minute." Chen Lu called him to stop.

Seeing Chen Yunqi turn around in confusion, he raised his chin towards Chen Muxue who was sitting next to him, "Take your sister with you. You two have grown up and you can't always let me and your mother send you off."

"That's right, that's right." Liang Zhirou quickly agreed.

She can also have the two little guys accompany her as her daughter, and she doesn't have to worry about whether they have enough or not. It kills two birds with one stone.

"Ah..." Chen Yunqi's face froze, and he looked at the confused Chen Muxue, but nodded helplessly, "I know."

Seeing the two children going out, Chen Lu carried the trimmed potted plant back to the balcony, letting it continue to keep company with Duoduo, who was squinting in the sun.

After a while, Liang Zhirou pulled out her hat when she returned to the living room.

The girl puts a white peaked cap on her head, and her long black hair flows down her back, looking full of youthful vitality.

"I'm not going to the store today. Let's go fishing together." Liang Zhirou said softly.

Chen Lu was confused, "Why did you suddenly think of fishing with me?"

She lowered her head and pinched her fingers, and her voice became much softer: "You often go to the store to accompany me recently. I'm afraid you will be bored."

She can't let Chen Lu accompany her to do what she wants to do every day. That would be too selfish.

Chen Lu pondered for a while, then waved his hand: "Forget it, I hate the fish in that reservoir."

I just went there with Jiang Chao a while ago. He caught two very small ones in one afternoon, but Jiang Chao didn't have any. He was so angry that he wanted to buy them from the reservoir and drain the water on the spot.

I usually feed you so much fish food for nothing, but you don’t even offer a sacrifice, right? Then don’t live.

Liang Zhirou took his hand and pulled him back to the sofa, "Then do you have anything else you want to do? I'll go with you."

"I want to go to the balcony and the bathroom." Chen Lu raised his eyebrows at her, "You can also go to the bathtub."

The girl tilted her head in confusion, and immediately rushed over and gave him a hammer after she realized what was happening.

"You are already in your thirties, why don't you take it easy..." Liang Zhirou muttered, isn't this person afraid of kidney deficiency?

"What do you mean?"

Liang Zhirou didn't answer, but silently sprinkled some wolfberry into the water glass on the coffee table, then turned her head and looked at him quietly and obediently.

"...?"

What's the difference between this and questioning that he can't do it? !

Chen Lu was so angry that he pushed her down on the sofa and prepared to prove himself.

Liang Zhirou lay flat on the sofa, holding his cheeks with her hands, her eyes full of doting.

This man has been jogging in the morning for almost ten years, and he is still as energetic as a cow.

So she didn't actually mean to be sarcastic, she just deliberately provoked Chen Lu.

Who would have thought that Master Chen would use all kinds of tricks to manipulate others all day long, but he couldn't even show a provocation in front of her.

After all, she was firmly in control.

……

On the other side, Chen Yunqi was just about to take his sister to pick him up when he suddenly found that Chen Muxue walked in the other direction as soon as he left the house.

"Where are you going?" he asked quickly.

"Go to school."

Chen Muxue yawned and said matter-of-factly: "You go pick up Sister Jiang Nan, I can go by myself."

People often say in TV dramas: If you don’t want to let go of your children, you won’t be able to trap the wolf.

For the sake of my long-term plan, this sacrifice is nothing.

Chen Yunqi hesitated for less than two seconds before reaching out and grabbing his sister's schoolbag.

Chen Muxue looked back at him confused and impatiently, but she saw him saying firmly: "No, I'm not worried."

Whether the road is far or close, yesterday it was clear that her parents would definitely send her off, but today they didn't. There was no way he would let Chen Muxue walk to school by herself.

When the two walked to Jiang Nan's house, she was already waiting in advance, holding two pancakes in her hand.

Jiang Nan stood expressionless on the roadside, her long hair gently blown by the breeze, but her iceberg-like temperament could not be blown away.

She gave it to Chen Yunqi first, and when she saw that Chen Muxue was there, she handed out her own.

"Don't you want to eat?" Chen Muxue tilted his head towards her.

Jiang Nan heard her stomach growling, but she still shook her head.

"I ate at home."

"Sister, you don't look happy."

"My mother found me a personal piano tutor. From now on, I will study Mathematical Olympiad on Saturdays and piano and dance on Sundays."

Jiang Nan and her brother and sister walked side by side on the street and let out a sigh of relief: "I can't hang out with you anymore on weekends... maybe during summer vacation as well."

"what?"

Chen Muxue opened her mouth slightly, her eyes filled with shock.

Jiang Nan looked at Chen Muxue's incredible eyes and suddenly smiled bitterly.

She is really not as smart as Chen Muxue, and maybe even not as smart as Chen Yunqi. Now she and Chen Muxue take turns taking the first place in the exam from time to time, which is all the result of her hard work.

But as far as she knew, the two of them didn't even read the book after finishing their homework, and they had never attended any cram school.

"I'll give you the pocket money I saved, or else you run away from home!" Chen Muxue had a sudden thought, "If you scare them, they might not let you make up classes again."

Jiang Nan's eyes lit up for a moment, then dimmed again quickly, and he lowered his eyes and said:

"Forget it, they will be worried if I run away from home, and they might even quarrel over it."

Her father has been trying hard to spend time with her and her mother in the past few years. He often watches TV with her despite dark circles under his eyes. Sometimes his eyelids would fight and he would fall asleep in the middle of the movie.

Now her parents have finally stopped quarreling about work, and she doesn't want them to quarrel again over how to educate her.

When she got to school, Jiang Nan stopped complaining about making up classes.

She was used to it, used to being a mature person.

Not long after I sat down, a boy wearing glasses came up to chat with me enthusiastically.

"Can you do the last big question in yesterday's math test? If you can't, I can teach you..."

"Go away." Jiang Nan still looked at Chen Yunqi and said coldly.

"Oh."

Wherever he looked, the brother and sister were whispering.

"Brother, do you also want to experience the feeling of running away from home?"

"Summer vacation is about to begin. Do you want to experience the feeling of having your summer homework doubled by your father?" Chen Yunqi asked.

It's not that Chen Lu has done this before. They made their mother unhappy before, so Chen Lu left an extra set of papers for them - the answers were not torn.

He later found out that the answer was a fake created by Chen Lu. The fill-in-the-blank and big-question questions were all correct, but he had secretly corrected a few wrong answers to the multiple-choice questions to fish for law enforcement.

And then... no more.

So sometimes he really would rather be beaten by his father, otherwise he would be punished who knows when.

Chen Muxue stopped talking, thinking that it would be better to give up the idea of ​​taking her sister and running away from home.

On the one hand, they are reluctant to let their mother be sad. On the other hand, when they see their mother sad, their father will definitely deal with them severely...

There was no need for dad to do anything himself. He just called his aunt over and it was terrifying.

This is the legendary killing with a borrowed knife.

"What should I do if sister Jiang Nan is always unhappy?" she asked again.

Chen Yunqi shook his head, he couldn't figure out this problem either.

I was just about to think about how to make my sister happy, but then I remembered that I had made an appointment with my dad this morning to get into the top five in the final exam...

"..."

Chen Yunqi suddenly felt that he was suffering from troubles that his age should not bear.

……

As time goes by, the tenderness on Peng Leyun's face has been completely taken away by time, and he is no longer as young as when he shouted "Primitive man, start".

Now that he has reached the threshold of thirty years old, although he is still a "social phobia", he can no longer do things like shouting slogans in public.

this day.

"Lady boss...you know Lin Miaomiao so well, can you give me some advice?"

He finally couldn't help but came to Liang Zhirou, scratched the back of his head and asked.

Chen Lu, who was sitting next to him sorting out reports, raised his head: "Do you think it's almost time?"

He subconsciously felt that Peng Leyun was a little abnormal.

Peng Leyun pondered for a while and just said:

"I'm not sure...but I can't wait any longer."

He is thirty-three years old this year, and Lin Miaomiao is thirty-two.

Obviously there are still many longing scenery that I want to see with her.

If they wait any longer, they will really get old.
