take care of

Leon was only happy for one day this autumn, and after that, he began to follow Lu Qing on blind dates in his spare time.His father had very curious tastes, and he liked teenage girls—and boys.Once they dated a girl who was obviously just 16, and Gu Qing asked her coldly "Can she swim?" The older sister cried "Wow" and disappeared without a trace.Later, he took over the job and turned it into asking, while Gu Qing sat aside and didn't know what he was thinking.Leon felt that he had broken his heart, not only had to find a girlfriend for his father, but also marked those people's information with asterisks according to categories, for fear that Gu Qing would forget about them when he turned around.

"You said, before I had time to question why he found me a new mother so quickly, I had to help him choose a new mother. Am I very miserable?"

[A little bit. 】The newcomer raised the whiteboard in his hand.

His name is Toyama Mingyue, a few months younger than him, a gifted child of Japanese descent, without parents, unable to speak, worse than him.

"I'm just afraid that he will end up alone. When he sits by the lake and relaxes, alas, it's so pitiful."

[Professor Gu Qing?Pitiful? !Did you see him scolding someone last week?I think you are crazy. 】

"I'm connected with him by blood," Leon pinched his left chest, "You don't understand, I understand."

"It's time to practice!" Darcy stood up from behind the "mountain" and shouted.

"Let's go, let's fight together." Leon took Mingyue's hand.

He has done almost the same job as an oiler recently. Darcy started to let him learn assembly. The occlusion of parts is the foundation, and the structure of the machine is the second step. It may take three years to learn simple knowledge, and after the long-term memory is stable, then Start learning the theoretical knowledge of AI.Leon, a little impatient to wait to grow up, feels that childhood should be just another word for disability, one that offers no benefit other than inconvenience.

"Did your father succeed in choosing a concubine?" Darcy asked Leon when he got on the chariot.

"No."

"I have received several resumes during dinner these days. If you can, you can show him too."

"How did they know that my dad was looking for a girlfriend?" Leon raised an eyebrow, "I only told you and Mingyue, Mingyue doesn't know anyone, did you say that? Destroying my dad's perfect image?"

"Someone met. You always go on a blind date at the most delicious cake shop nearby. It's hard not to meet."

"Annoying," Leon rubbed his face, "My dad doesn't even like it."

"What can Gu Qing like?"

young.The word turned and swallowed back on Leon's lips.His dad was a great man, and he shouldn't be talked about like that—he should keep his own mouth in the future, too.

Feeling annoyed, Leon suddenly started the engineering vehicle and rushed towards the shivering moon: "You pull out your lightsaber!"

The white flag and the whiteboard were raised together. [Where is the lightsaber? o(╥﹏╥)o]

Hey, there is no one around to worry about.

Leon wanted to have a chat with Gu Qing, but he didn't meet the right opportunity all day long.We bumped into each other in the cafeteria at noon, but Mingyue didn't dare to eat with Gu Qing, and it was inconvenient to talk about it in front of Mingyue.It wasn't until the two of them went home and started working again on the third floor that Leon found the opportunity - the bag containing the blind date information was placed on Gu Qing's right hand, within easy reach.

"Dad, what did you do today?"

"Write a program." Gu Qing replied.

"What procedure?"

"Secret work, you will know later."

Leon nodded.It was always inconvenient for Lu Qing to tell him one thing, if he was busy with that matter, he would use "secret work" instead.Under normal circumstances, the chat between him and Gu Qing would be over here. When Gu Qing was doing secret work, he really didn't like being disturbed by others.

Leon decided to ask directly.

"Dad, have you chosen your governess?"

"I think they are all good, you choose one." Gu Qing pushed the thick file bag over without raising his head.

"Couldn't you have found another job?" Leon looked at the bag.

"Then change it." Lu Qing was even more ruthless than Delia.

"Then I choose!" Leon took the bag and returned to his own table.

Not to mention Gu Qing, if it wasn't for the star marks, Leon himself wouldn't be able to remember a few of them.Lyon first picked out the men, and then selected the one with the highest overall star rating: a 22-year-old Danish girl named Suzanne, who is of Chinese descent, can cook Chinese food, and can also write calligraphy.Because of Gu Qing's blood, Lyon has always been very curious about Chinese culture, and it would be good to pick someone who can teach him Chinese.

"This one." Leon pushed Suzanne's resume over.

"Oh, you like older ones." Lu Qing took a look: "I will make an appointment to see it again tomorrow."

Leon secretly worried in his heart: 22 still feels big?Could it be a child lover... He looked at Lu Qing who had been writing in front of the computer, and felt ashamed for thinking so.He must have watched too many messy movies and books, no, after all, didn't his father live with his mother and give birth to him?But he doesn't seem to know how old his mother is or what she looks like...

"Is it big?" After a long time, Leon mustered up the courage to ask again.

Gu Qing, who had been looking at the computer all the time, looked up at Leon, compared them, and showed the greatest tolerance as a father: "It's okay."

From that day on, Leon felt as if he knew a shameful secret of his father. He made a huge stone in his heart, and then quietly pressed the secret under it, not daring to move it a bit.

After another meeting, Suzanne was sure she could take the job.Willis came that weekend, drove a new Volvo, and changed the layout of Gu Qing's home: all the toys in the Lyon game room were moved to the third floor, and a blackboard was pasted up, turning it into a study room; The unused room on the east side of the first floor has been cleaned up and used as Suzanne's bedroom.When he was busy downstairs, Gu Qing took him to tidy up the third floor. The black box in the middle of the room used as a dividing line was locked in the attic, and the third floor, which was never locked, was also locked with fingerprints. Leon's thumb was printed on it. in.

In such a long time of busyness and apprehension, Leon felt a little happy—compared with Suzanne, he was obviously more trusted by his father.

"If you think she's not suitable, tell me." Gu Qing said to him when he came down from the attic.

"I think she's pretty good." Leon thought about those teenage materials, and said slowly.

Dinner was with Willis.After eating, Gu Qing took Leon for a walk by the river.After Leon walked a few steps, he sneezed very loudly. Gu Qing wrapped him in a plaid scarf to look like a rural peasant woman, with only two eyes exposed.

"Autumn is coming to an end." Lu Qing held his face through the scarf: "Children should wear more."

His father's personal temperament is really too cold, especially when he is wearing a single windbreaker and standing in the cold wind with his back to the street lamp.Other fathers may be very gentle when playing this game, but when it comes to him, they only have the feeling of wanting to teach their son a lesson, or... Kidnapping?Leon tried his best to turn his eyes to see the reactions of the passers-by. Some passers-by walked more and more slowly, and looked at them suspiciously. Two tall young men were about to walk over.

Leon's eyeballs were about to roll out of the corners of his eyes, but Gu Qing still looked at Leon's nose very seriously, as if he wanted to see some snot.

"My size is no longer suitable for picking carrots." Leon lowered his head, trying to land on his feet.

"Don't catch a cold." Gu Qing put him down and turned to look at the river.

Leon exposed his head, smiled at the passers-by, and signaled that he was fine.

"Susanna is a very nice person. Her grades were very good in school, and her published papers are worth reading. You should learn from her more. Although she is old, she is still a girl. You have to learn to protect her."

Leon didn't want to hear these embarrassing words that he didn't know how to answer, he opened Lu Qing's windbreaker, got in by himself, and then handed him the scarf: "You tie the two of us up."

"What?" Gu Qing asked.

"Kangaroo is jumping." Leon said naturally, "I'll count one, two, three, let's jump home together."

"We came here by car." Gu Qing said calmly.

"Jump for a few minutes first."

"One-two-three, jump!"

Lu Qing jumped forward following the child's rhythm.

"One-two-three, jump again!"

Gu Qing jumped forward.

"One-two-three, come on, Dad!"

Lu Qing hugged him and ran forward.

"Hahaha... itchy meat, itchy meat!"

Gu untied the scarf with one hand, lifted him to his neck, and handed the scarf to him.Celle is a small place. Apart from the flowing water in the river and the lights along the shore, the most lively scene at night is only a little bit of light flickering in the darkness in the distance.

Lu Qing wanted to continue the interrupted topic with him, but just as he raised his breath, Leon immediately took out the "Melancholic Poet" from his pocket and handed it to him.

"Why do you bring a harmonica with you?" Lu Qing found that the child could always do things that he couldn't think of.

"I found it when I was packing up toys today. I put it in my coat pocket and want to show it to Mingyue tomorrow. Dad, blow one."

"What do you want to hear?"

"Everything is fine, Little Xingxing."

"I think you don't want to listen to me." Lu Qing tried the harmonica and said to him with a smile.

"I'm just a little embarrassed. There were two of us before, and suddenly there will be one more person, but I will treat her sincerely."

Lu Qing also wanted to tell him this - how to get along with a stranger suddenly.But he found that a child like Leon didn't seem to need guidance in this area. He naturally knew how to keep a distance from others and how to show himself.Is this instinct, or does it come from the three years of experience that he doesn't understand?

"I'm sorry, Dad can't be with you all the time." Gu Qing said to him.

"I just said don't chat, suddenly I feel so sad." Leon rested his chin on Gu Qing's head.

Lu Qing reached out and touched his face.

At this time, Leon suddenly wanted others to come and take a look. His father also had such tender moments.

"Did you see the lights in the church?" Gu Qing asked him.

"Oh, the only bright spot in the dark north?"

"Well, very early on, people found solace in that little light."

"Dad, I feel that you are that light."

"I'm just a light-seeking bug in the dark," Gu Qing said slowly, "You don't want to be a person like me, you should live in the lights of thousands of families behind us."

"Father, I'm so worried that I'll forget what you said tomorrow!" Leon hugged Gu Qing's head.

"Because you will forget, that's why I told you." Lu Qing's tone was soft, as if he hoped that he would forget now.

Gu Qing hugged him down, then leaned on the railing and bowed his head to play the harmonica.He played a piece of traditional Sicilian dance music. Many music boxes like to play this music, accompanied by a smiling couple who are always spinning.There is no smile in Gu Qing’s version. The lovers danced solemnly, following the rhythm strictly, as if the dome carved with intricate patterns would collapse in a second, as if predicting future misfortune.When he played the sad ending, his wrist holding the harmonica trembled, and his index and middle fingers firmly pressed the body of the harmonica.

His father was too handsome in other aspects except for his deep thinking, Leon thought regretfully, he should have picked the most beautiful girl, it was not a mistake to like the young one, it was just a personal choice.

Leon began to feel that he was not a qualified son.Instead of putting his dad first, he took some boring worldly rules too seriously - if Suzanne and Gu Qing got married, he wouldn't mind being a flower girl.

Lu Qing blew back and forth twice, and Leon kept looking at the river without making a sound.He was a little worried that the child would fall into the sad music, the sound became smaller and smaller, and then stopped naturally.

"When will she come?" Leon asked after a while.

"Tomorrow's train."

"Oh," Leon leaned on the railing and jumped a few times, "I will buy a beautiful bouquet of flowers when I pick her up." Lu Qing was silent for a while, and the child said sadly again: "My teeth... will fall out a few days later. alright."

"I saw it just now, and it seems that the one next to it is about to fall."

"Well," Leon drooped his head, "at least symmetrically."

Neither of them went to work the next day, and Leon followed Gu Qing to pick up Susanna with a bouquet of carnations.The weather was very cold, even colder than yesterday. The slightly fat girl was wearing a yellow woolen suit, with a light layer of lipstick on her mouth, and was pulling a large suitcase.

I don't know which one is more beautiful, her or her mother.Leon handed the flowers to her, then took Gu Qing's hand, thinking sourly.He didn't mention his mother yesterday, he didn't want to make his father sad, this is the beginning of his new life.

"Professor Gu Qing, I admire you very much." She took the flowers from Leon and said to Gu Qing enthusiastically.

"Well," Gu Qing nodded habitually, "This is Leon, I hope you can teach him what you learned in normal school, and I need you to take care of him when I'm busy."

"Hi, Suzanne."

"Hello, Leon." Suzanne bent down and held out her hand to him: "I hope you will like me as a tutor."

"Well, I like you very much now." Leon showed the cutest smile he ever knew.

"You can ask me about your academic confusion." Gu Qing said to her.

Leon felt that Suzanne's eyes were like a desk lamp turned on in the middle of the night: "Thank you, I am very willing to study with Professor Gu."

"I hope we can get along well." Lu Qing nodded again.

His dad turned to help Suzanne pack the boxes, and then drove as if he didn't know her at all and didn't intend to.As the half-head of the family, Lyon took Suzanne to familiarize himself with the community environment and accompanied her to add some things.While sitting in the shopping mall waiting for someone, Leon was suddenly a little confused. Could it be that his father was so business-like, was he wrong in the first place?

His father doesn't seem to be very good at dating. I don't know how his mother fell in love with him.This was Leon's self-destructive thought after sitting in a chair for a long time.
