When Tang Tu got up in the morning, he habitually turned on the computer first to check the author's background.

Because of the time difference, he usually gets up early to update, but he didn’t need it today, but he still put a chapter’s update into the manuscript box in the background, went through the manuscript for the last time, modified two wordings, and then set up a chapter for this chapter. Regular updates at night.

In the morning, it seems that I can't start working. At noon, I will meet my brother's girlfriend for the first time. According to the custom, as the eldest brother, he should be regarded as an elder, and he has to prepare a meeting gift for the woman to show his approval for her.Because of this unexpected task, Tang Cu's room will not be returned for the time being. He takes care of himself, puts the lipstick engraved with "Giving a piece of feather" into the deepest part of the box, and then takes a taxi into the city.

The only luck is that she doesn't need to worry about what to buy for Lin Long.When Tang Cu set off, he thought bitterly, after all, the day before, he had just made up for what gifts to give to girls of the same generation. He didn't expect that this strategy would be reused for the second time.

Tang Cu, who really has no experience in gift giving, is going to the mall to buy another lipstick of the same kind—only this time there is no need to engrave it.

The taxi slowly drove into the central hinterland of this huge and prosperous city. After wandering for seven years, the time to return to "home" was approaching.Some people who have returned from a long journey will feel timid when they are close to their hometown, but Tang Cu is just the opposite. He feels that all his emotions have sunk into the deep sea. Seeing this ancient city where he was born and raised with his own eyes once again, he seems like an indifferent Stranger, with no expression on his face, no sadness or joy in his heart.

He deliberately did not choose the subway, but took the ground transportation, allowing himself to reunite with the city face to face.These familiar scenes stimulated all the protective mechanisms in his subconscious to the greatest extent, and his true self was buried in the deepest and darkest corner, and beyond that, it was locked with the coldest masks layer by layer.

Extremely prepared, extremely indifferent, and sealed his heart from the very beginning. Only in this way can he not bleed or collapse when dealing with the deadliest blow.

Tang Cu walked into the bright and colorful shopping mall, identified the location of the make-up area, and walked forward.Even on a Monday morning, such a popular shopping mall would never be deserted. Among the crowds of people, Tang Cu looked out of tune with the crowd.

He is wearing a black jacket with a slim-fit stand-up collar today, which is calm and dignified. If someone knows the goods, he can recognize that this jacket is a luxury brand's spring style last year, and it is expensive.He has a tall and straight figure and a handsome appearance, but his expression is frozen and indifferent, as if he is separated from this lively and noisy place, like a clump of bamboo on a high mountain, inaccessible and inaccessible.

The expensive clothes on his body and the indifference between his eyebrows shocked the shopping guide on the counter. She quickly picked up a lipstick according to the picture shown by the other party, and didn't even dare to recommend other products to him as a routine. The back is gone.

The time when I met Lin Long was a little earlier than Tang Cu had expected.

Near lunch time, they met at the entrance of the high-end villa complex. Lin Long got out of the car and waved to the bodyguards not to follow her.After passing the security check at the entrance of the community, she took off the huge pair of sunglasses that covered half of her beautiful face, and within two seconds of meeting the eyes of the man standing there, Lin Long smiled and said, "Brother Tang Cu."

Tang Cui hasn't returned home for seven years, and there are not many photos left from her youth. She recognized someone so quickly, obviously she did her homework beforehand - so it seems that she treats the relationship between herself and Tang Qi, Still very serious.

Thinking of his mother who was waiting at home not far away, Tang Cu didn't know whether this girl's serious attitude was a good thing or a bad thing, so he just nodded and said, "Hello."

"We haven't seen each other for many years."

How to take this?Tang Cu thought tensely, the two of them probably met a total of two or three times at the banquets when they were young, and he only had a vague impression of the Lin family's children, and there was nothing old to recount.Although he specially prepared another lipstick as a gift, he never thought that he would run into his brother's girlfriend alone.

Unprepared, he thought of the process that he had prepared but didn't use yesterday.

"I brought you a small gift." Tang Cu said back stiffly, "Just be careful and treat it as a meeting gift."

Greetings with strangers, he was too nervous and forgot the gift bag handed out, Lin Long didn't care, took the bag and took it, looked at it and said with a smile: "I like this brand very much, thank you brother."

Tang Cu looked at the ground in embarrassment, "You're welcome."

"Tang Qi always told me before that his brother had a difficult life when he was a child, and told me to give way to everything after seeing you." Lin Long brushed her hair and sold her boyfriend without hesitation, "But I will Before, my brother told me that his landlord is a very receptive person, so I don’t need to be restrained, so I won’t engage in that kind of nonsense with you—Brother Tang Cu, please tell me the truth, your mother How much does she dislike me? Tang Qi was afraid that I would think too much, and he always comforted me by saying that he would try his best to deal with his mother—I can see that, not yet. "

The elder brother she was talking about was undoubtedly Lin Lang, the eldest son of Lin Kangsheng, the current leader of the Lin Group.

The young master's temper is also unpredictable. The Lin family only has a lot of real estate in the United States, but he didn't want any of them. Relationship for rent.

Lin Lang once told Tang Cu that if it wasn't for the relationship between Lin Long and Tang Qi, he wouldn't be able to rent Tang Cu's house, and would probably have to stay in a hotel.At that time, Tang Cu only thought about some internal changes in the Lin family, and the eldest son could not live in his own house, but he was not a gossip person, and besides, he had not lived in Dongling for a long time, so he didn't care much about such issues. , so he didn't ask any further questions, but now that he thinks about it... At that time, he actually thought that the "relationship between Lin Long and Tang Qi" in Lin Lang's mouth meant the relationship between ordinary friends, and his thinking was too simple.

The characters of this pair of siblings are exactly the same, straightforward, strong and decisive, Lin Long smiled at Tang Cuo and said: "You tell me first, so I can be prepared, such as whether I will be scolded out as soon as I enter the door or something— — To be honest, I have a very important work meeting in a while, and the other party has something to do at [-] o'clock, so I can wait until [-] o'clock at most, the sooner the arrangement, the better."

Tang Cu couldn't help this question, and said, "Sorry, Miss Lin, I really don't know."

"It doesn't matter." Lin Long said casually, "Just call me by my name, or you can call me brother and sister, anyway, I will definitely marry Tang Qi."

Tang Cu smiled unnaturally, did not respond to this sentence, and made an inviting gesture.

When the two walked side by side to the residence of Tang Cu's parents, he thought to himself, after meeting his mother today, Lin Long wondered if he could say this sentence without hesitation.

The person who opened the door was Tang Qi, who seemed to be about to go out to pick up someone, but it was Tang Cu and Lin Long who had arrived early.

Seeing Tang Qi's expression, Tang Cu knew that the situation might be a little worse than he imagined. Lin Long didn't seem to feel anything, and stepped forward with a smile on Tang Qi's arm.

"Brother." Tang Qi first nodded to greet Tang Cu, and then hugged Lin Long vigorously.

"Good afternoon dear." He didn't smile, but said softly, "I'm sorry, today may be a tough battle, but I'm definitely on your side, okay?"

When Tang Qi was sullen and didn't smile, he looked somewhat similar to his elder brother Tang Cu. "Great." Lin Long said happily, as if the other party said "How about Italian food for lunch today?"

"Did Tang Cu come back?" A woman's voice came from upstairs.

"Yes, Mom. Lin Long is also here." Tang Qi replied loudly.

Tang Cu followed behind Tang Qi, and stepped into the gate of this luxurious villa again after many years.Strangely, the moment he crossed this threshold, he suddenly recalled seven years ago, when he stepped out here for the last time, his mother was still threatening with hatred: When he went abroad, he changed that problem, or he would never come back!

As a result, Tang Cuo really never came back.

It's hard to say how Tang Cu felt when he saw the woman in the wheelchair again.

she is old.The deadly disease was consuming her physical strength and spirit visibly. Today she even came out to greet guests in a loose hospital gown, with horizontal wrinkles on her face and no makeup at all. For her when she was young, good face was more important than life , which is completely unimaginable.

Tang Cu thought that she would bring back many unbearable memories for him, such as the blue-faced but still weakly struggling baby, the restraint clothes that strangled him, and the Dongling University admissions that were torn to pieces and burned to ashes. Notice.

But it didn't.She was so old and weak, so different from the strong person he remembered.

"Baby!" Tang's mother cried out, tears pouring out, "Mom's baby, you are already so old, my son..."

She was so emotional that she opened her arms on the wheelchair with tears streaming down her cheeks, beckoning her eldest son, whom she had not seen for a long time, to give her a hug.

Tang Cu stood on the spot and said calmly, "Hello."
