One big and one small are practicing love

Liu Xiaochen hurried to the kitchen, turned off the heat, and was about to bend down to pick up the pot lid when Shen Liang came over and the two of them bumped into each other.

"I'm sorry!" Liu Xiaochen said hastily, immediately dodged, stood in front of the pot, and filled the dumplings pretending to be nonchalant.

Shen Liang turned on the faucet, rinsed the lid of the pot, and said while washing: "Oh, you really can't take a joke! Don't worry, I have a girlfriend, but my mother doesn't know."

Liu Xiaochen took a deep breath and said, "Why didn't you tell Aunt Liu?"

Shen Liang put the washed pot lid on the counter and said, "My mother met her, but she was firmly opposed to it, so I lied to her to break up."

"Why? I think Aunt Liu is very kind."

"My girlfriend graduated from junior high school and works as a liquor salesperson in a bar. She has tattoos, smokes, and drinks. My mother dislikes this kind of girl the most. She likes the type of person who lives at home like you. I am telling you this because I want you to cooperate. I'm pretending. Don't make her too sad. She raised me up alone and suffered a lot. As for me, I just want to make her happy." Shen Liang said with a deep expression.

I have never seen Aunt Liu's husband in the past few days since I came to Shenyang. Looking at her cheerful look, I thought her husband might be working in another place. I didn't expect that she lives alone and raises her children.

Liu Xiaochen was silent for a moment and said, "We can get along like ordinary friends. Don't let Yanyan, Xiaoxu and your mother think that we are really close."

"Don't worry, I love my girlfriend very much." Shen Liang finished speaking and walked away leisurely.

After eating and drinking enough, my body felt better and my mind felt at ease. One afternoon, Liu Xiaochen and his two children, Shen Liang, sat around the desk, each doing their own thing.

Liu Xiaochen watched "A Dream of Red Mansions", Zuo Yan compiled her notes, and Zuo continued to copy Monet's "Water Lilies". Shen Liang wore headphones and watched Hayao Miyazaki's cartoons. He kept a thick blank notebook and a few colored pens at hand.

Shen Liang and Zuo Xu sat side by side opposite Liu Xiaochen. Liu Xiaochen looked at Zuo Xu and Zuo Yan from time to time. He saw that Zuo Xu was not concentrating on painting and often glanced towards Shen Liang. Zuo Yan also occasionally stared blankly for a while.

Because of the two children, Liu Xiaochen observed Shen Liang's behavior.

He watched the movie for a while, stopped for a while, held the pen on the blank notebook, rose and fell easily, and drew simple and neat lines. Also draw marks on the picture and write some text. Although Liu Xiaochen didn't understand much, he seemed to be studying something.

Until it got dark and I had dinner, Zuo Xu had not finished the painting, and the finished part was frizzy. Although Zuo Yan finished taking notes, she only wrote half a page of her thoughts after reading.

After the meal, Aunt Liu and Shen Liang left. Liu Xiaochen talked with the two children and learned that they were also interested in Hayao Miyazaki's cartoons and wanted to study with Shen Liang.

Liu Xiaochen did not dare to make the decision alone, so he promised them to call Zuo Kunmin at night to tell him about it.

In the evening, the two children completed their respective plans and went to bed half an hour later than usual. After putting them to bed, Liu Xiaochen took out his diary and wrote it alone at the desk in the living room, trying to record what happened in the past few days and sort out his messy thoughts.

Just after I wrote two lines, my phone buzzed. I guessed it was Zuo Kunmin, but after looking at the information, it turned out to be the case. So Xiao took his cell phone, went to Zuo Kunmin's bedroom, took off his shoes and sat on his bed, and made a call.

Afraid that the children were still asleep, Liu Xiaochen whispered: "Teacher Zuo."

"Yeah! How is your injury?" Zuo Kunmin's voice was low and weak.

Fever, missing, embarrassing things, Zuo Xu was not concentrating in the afternoon, etc., I wanted to talk to him. But as soon as Liu Xiaochen heard his voice, he could imagine how tired he was at the moment. He couldn't bear to waste his time and energy talking about these secret matters anymore.

He only asked the children if they wanted to learn Miyazaki Hayao animation from Shen Liang. After hearing Zuo Kunmin's answer, Liu Xiaochen decided to communicate with Shen Liang tomorrow.

When Zuo Kunmin said: "Don't just report to me about the children's situation, you should also report to me about your situation. What have you been doing all day? Why didn't you send me a message?"

Hearing Zuo Kunmin's relaxed tone, he encouraged her to speak the truth. Liu Xiaochen once again wanted to tell him what happened during the day, but heard Zuo Yan cough twice and looked at the time. I thought, forget it, it's time to adjust Zuo Yan's sleeping position.

Liu Xiaochen hesitated for a while and responded: "I just slept in and read. I didn't have anything to say, so I didn't post it."

"Didn't you miss me?" Zuo Kunmin said softly.

As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Xiaochen's heart trembled. The longing for this day was now overflowing. Tears fell from his eyes. He couldn't help but trembled: "I love you!"

Liu Xiaochen waited expectantly for Zuo Kunmin's reply. For a while, he only heard him say calmly: "Okay, go to bed early and get more sleep. It will be good for the wound recovery."

Liu Xiaochen's heart suddenly became dull and heavy. Yes, he is mature and stable, how could he be interested in 'sweet words'? So I said good night tactfully and hung up the phone.

After sitting silently on the bed for a while, I returned to the living room again and continued writing in my diary.
