It turns out that no one survives in love

After this incident, Li Tian and Lin Rui's relationship took a step forward.This is also an unexpected gain.

On Saturday of this week, Li Tian went to Lin Rui's place to help him pack his things, preparing to move into Li Tian's house completely.Lin Rui didn't have many things. Except for a box of documents and materials, his carry-on luggage barely filled a suitcase.

Li Tian was both funny and distressed, "Oh, you are poor enough, you can't even get a dowry!"

Lin Rui has been with him for a long time, and his face has thickened, "Oh, then you can keep me."

After speaking, he turned around and went out empty-handed, leaving his boss Li who "nurtured" him behind with a big box in his hand and locked the door.

Early the next morning, Lin Rui arrived at the school and knocked on the door of Zhou Yan's office.With the sound of "Please come in", Lin Rui collected himself, opened the door and walked in.

Seeing him coming in, Zhou Yan was obviously a little surprised, and then sat up straight as if facing a formidable enemy.

Lin Rui walked to the desk and put the keys of the car and the apartment on the table, "I don't need this anymore, you can help me return it to the department when you see the time. Thank you for taking care of me these few months .I know that you are helping to organize these things." After speaking, there was a slight smile on his face.

Zhou Yan looked at Lin Rui and suddenly felt a little discouraged.He has always thought that Lin Rui has no temper, is easy to get along with, and is an easy-going person.But he was wrong, Lin Rui is not easy-going, he is just cold.He doesn't care about many things, not because he is kind, but because he doesn't care.

It seems that now, Lin Rui is only disappointed with him, but has no pain.So in the face of him, you can still laugh it off.

He thought, so I was the saddest one.

Zhou Yan didn't speak, and Lin Rui didn't wait any longer, "By the way, I finished revising the paper. As you said, I voted for Management Science. Fingers crossed. I'll let you know when I get a reply." He smiled, turned and walked out.

When he arrived at the office, Lin Rui sat in front of the computer and pretended to have a cup of coffee, but he didn't read anything.

Zhou Yan was wrong about something, Lin Rui was actually very sad.He doesn't have many friends, and he lacks love, but he cherishes anyone who he can truly believe as a friend.Coincidentally, Zhou Yan is one of them, or once was one of them.

The revolutionary friendship of mutual cooperation and mutual support is always precious.The two collaborated on four papers, which directly laid the capital of the tenure of both parties.Not everyone has a collaborator who works so well.It can be said that among all Lin Rui's collaborators, Zhou Yan is the most reliable comrade in arms.However, these are all in the past.

He didn't show anger or heartache, not because he didn't care.When a person is betrayed by a comrade-in-arms, his first reaction is not to blame the comrade-in-arms, but to blame himself and feel sad.Lin Rui picked up the coffee and took a sip, the bitter taste slowly spread.

In the afternoon, Lin Rui answered emails, tidied up the desktop, watered the flowers, and was completely out of work.The last one who was appointed sat on the chair, thinking to himself, since there is nothing to do anyway, it is better to go home early, clean up the house and cook a meal, so as to save Li from busy work all over the world.

Just as he was laughing at himself that he was becoming more and more aware of being "nurtured", the phone rang.Lin Rui picked it up and saw that it was indeed Li Tian.Lin Rui picked it up with a smile on his face,

"Hello? The patron misses me?"

The other side was obviously taken aback, and then a voice that was obviously much deeper than Li Tian came over, "Xiao Lin?"

Lin Rui was taken aback, and looked at the phone again, "Old Litouer" was clearly written in big characters, Li Tian was right, he was confused, "Uh, I'm Lin Rui, and you are...?"

"Oh, hello Xiao Lin. I am Li Tian's father."

Lin Rui only felt a big thunder "click" on his head, and he sat up straight when Ge You was paralyzed, "Oh, hello, uncle."

Father Li thought it was funny, the child pretended to be calm, but his voice trembled. "Oh, Xiao Lin, that's right. Li Tian was at home and told us about your affairs. I discussed it with Li Tian's mother and came to have dinner at home in the evening. I'll put down the phone and send you the address later. .”

Lin Rui swallowed, struggling to die, "Oh, yes. Well, Li Tianhe..."

"Oh, this kid is cooking in the kitchen. Just come here after work. Let's do this first, ah."

After speaking, I hung up.

Lin Rui thought it was a bit convenient, this is really a family, and the speech was so simple and clear.Moreover, Jiang is still old and hot, and he didn't even give the two of them a chance to make a confession.

Just as he was thinking about it, he received a text message. When he opened it, it turned out to be a "sharemy location". Lin Rui said, "The old man is quite trendy."

Lin Rui was really worried when he came to the door for the first time, and really didn't know what to bring.Li Tian told him that his family has long accepted the fact that he likes men, but it is one thing to accept it, and another thing to accept it.

To make matters worse, he had just returned the car to Zhou Yan. Originally, he had discussed with Li Tian that Li Tian would pick him up and go to and from get off work. Now, he can only take a taxi to Li Tian's parents' house, which is not much more convenient. Walk a few places and pick out gifts.

By the time Lin Rui held a few boxes of Cordyceps in his left hand and a large bouquet of flowers in his right hand, he stood in panic at the door of Li Tian's parents' house and rang the doorbell, it was already an hour and a half later.

As soon as Li Tian opened the door, he saw Lin Rui with a standard smile at the door.Standing straight, smiling gracefully, showing four teeth, like posing for a photo. . .Li Tian couldn't hold back anymore, he laughed "puchi".

Lin Rui managed to get his posture right, but who knew that it was Li Tian who opened the door, his expression froze on his face, and he wanted to ask, "Uncle, why don't you play cards according to the routine?"

He stared at Li Tian resentfully, and walked in.

Li Tian closed the door and took the things in his hand, "Look for slippers in the shoe cabinet, I'm steaming fish." After speaking, he turned and walked back to the kitchen. . .

Lin Rui had no choice but to open the shoe cabinet and find a pair of slippers to change into.Walking into the living room, I saw Li's father sitting on the sofa, and his whole body stiffened immediately, "Hello, Uncle."

Father Li glanced at him, "Xiao Lin, come and sit down."

Lin Rui took a second to calm down, and then walked over as calmly as possible.

Father Li looked at him curiously, this young man was interesting, it was the same on the phone, and now he was blushing obviously from nervousness, but he pretended to be indifferent.Looking at it makes people want to tease him.

"cough!"

Seeing Lin Rui trembling involuntarily with satisfaction, Father Li continued, "Xiao Lin, Li Tian said that you are a university teacher, are you usually busy, and are you under a lot of pressure?"

"It's okay. I usually have more freedom except for lectures, and the pressure mainly comes from doing research. But this kind of thing still depends on the individual's own arrangements and plans."

Father Li nodded, thinking "he is a real person", and then asked, "How long have you known Li Tian?"

Lin Rui thought, "Here we come, here comes the important point." Like a confession, "I returned to China in July, and I met him in August because of a cooperation project."

Father Li poured him a cup of tea, "Oh, it's been four months now." Lin Rui quickly took the tea, and then maybe because of nervousness, he felt really thirsty, so he took a sip directly.

As soon as he drank it, he heard Father Li calmly ask,

"Oh, when you answered the phone just now, what did you call this kid, 'Gold Master'?"

"Cough, cough, cough..." Lin Rui almost choked to death, and Li's father quickly handed him a tissue, "What's the matter? Be careful."

This was really embarrassing and embarrassing. Lin Rui wiped his mouth with a tissue, coughed for a while and finally calmed down. He couldn't help but cautiously looked up at Father Li, who knew that Father Li also looked at him with a teasing look on his face.Now, his face was completely red.

After a while, Father Li laughed "haha" and patted him on the shoulder, "Xiao Lin, you are so interesting, kid."

Lin Rui "..." Uncle, I'm really boring, let's talk about something else, okay QAQ. . .

When Lin Rui was at a loss, the door opened, and Li's mother came in with two big bags in her hand, "Hey, let me just say, I'm sure I can catch up now."

Lin Rui stood up immediately when he saw it, "Hello, Auntie."

Mother Li looked up and smiled, "Xiao Lin? Are you here?"

Lin Rui smiled and nodded, then walked over a few steps and took the bag from Mother Li.

"Hey, sit down quickly. I went downstairs to buy some candied lotus root. My god, I like to eat theirs. You can try it later, it's very authentic!"

Lin Rui's feeling towards Li's mother is completely different from that of Li's father.He respected Li's father with nervousness, while for Li's mother, he was nervous with kindness.

Several people sat on the sofa again, and Li's mother pushed the fruit plate towards Lin Rui, "Xiao Lin, eat fruit. Don't be fooled, ah." Then, she picked up a small fork and inserted a slice of orange, "You guys Teacher, it's the most throat-consuming, eating oranges is so sweet."

The fruit had already been peeled. Lin Rui took the fork and put the orange into his mouth. The sweet and sour taste permeated his nose.

Li's mother and Li's father glanced at each other, but did not speak.

Li Tian had already greeted the two of them in advance, and made an "appropriate exaggeration".Li's mother has a gentle personality, and she has already begun to feel sorry for the child she has never met before she met her.When we met now, I saw that Lin Rui was very nervous, but from the moment she entered the door, it was obvious that she wanted to get close to her, cautiously, which made her feel sad.

Father Li looked at Mother Li's eyes full of distress, and patted her hand lightly. Without saying a word, he returned another cup of tea for Lin Rui.

"The food is ready!" Li Tian put two plates of food on the dining table, and untied his apron behind his back, "Lin Rui, help me serve the food."

"Tsk!" Li's mother said angrily, "You child! How can you let guests serve food!"

Li Tian smiled at Li's mother, "Hey, what kind of guest is he?"

After finishing speaking, he said to Lin Rui, "Quick, help me solve it."

Lin Rui walked behind him with a smile, and helped him untie the apron. Li Tian hung up the apron, put his arm around Lin Rui's shoulders and walked into the kitchen, "Come, serve food with me."

After the dishes were set, the four of them sat down at the dining table. Father Li took the main seat, and Mother Li was on the left, and he invited Lin Rui to sit on his right, saying that he wanted to have a good drink with Xiao Lin.Li Tian had no choice but to sit next to Lin Rui.

Father Li liked rice wine, so he poured a full glass for Lin Rui, "Come, try the rice wine from our hometown." As he spoke, he took a big sip, and Lin Rui immediately brought the glass. "Hey." Li Tian couldn't stop it in time, Lin Rui had already raised his head and took a big gulp.Immediately afterwards, Lin Rui's face turned red all of a sudden.

Li's father burst into laughter, and Li Tian sighed, followed suit, and said softly, "The wine in my hometown has a high alcohol content. Drink it slowly." Then, he put some broccoli beef for him on the plate, "Eat Order, press it."

Li's mother glared at Li's father, and gave Lin Rui a chopstick of candied lotus root, "Come, have a taste."

Lin Rui took it flattered and bit it down. To be honest, no matter how unpalatable it is, he still thinks it is delicious now.But he was shocked as soon as he took it in, it was really delicious.Lin Rui looked up at Li's mother, his eyes widened, and he gave a thumbs up, "It's delicious." Seeing that it was a sincere compliment from a foodie, all three of them laughed.

A meal was spent happily among the family talking and laughing.Li's father was a soldier when he was young, and all the stories he told were stories from that era. Li Tian didn't feel much when he heard them from a young age, but Lin Rui listened to them freshly, with an envious expression on his face.Father Li was in a good mood.

Li Tian was so helpless, he picked up vegetables and soup for him whenever he had time, and then whispered to Lin Rui's ear, urging him to eat more.Mother Li saw it and sighed secretly.
