After the conversation under the street lamp that night, Yu Jingzhi deliberately avoided appearing in front of acquaintances with Su Lie.

Not only did he choose to go shopping, date and watch movies in a commercial area far away from home, but the frequency of coming to Su's house for dinner was greatly reduced, and it was even rarer to pick him up from get off work at night.

After savoring the fragrance of flowers, and then going back to simply enjoy the leaves, I am afraid that no one can really concentrate on it.

Su Lie is also irritable and needs to deliberately control his eyes when talking and laughing, even holding hands when others are not paying attention, not to mention holding back the itch not to kiss or approach.

He didn't want Yu Jingzhi to show his eyes that night again.

Self-blame, guilt, and endless loss.

He didn't understand why Yu Jingzhi persistently attributed the main reason for not being open and aboveboard to himself.Su Lie tried to persuade him, but he just smiled silently and kissed his forehead lightly.

Gradually, Su Lie no longer strongly wanted to change his mind, but tried to accept it, hoping to find a point of balance for both sides.

Of course, this is just trying and hoping.

On this day, Dong Cilian bought a fresh yellow croaker and asked Su Lie to call Yu Jingzhi for dinner.

He sent Yu Jingzhi a wechat message, and he was unwilling to come as expected, and even made up an excuse to deal with Dong Cilian.

Su Lie endured it, and said it again in a good voice, but was still rejected.

There is also a photo of the noodles in the pot.

After a few minutes, Yu Jingzhi picked up the noodles that were constantly bubbling and bubbling, and looked at his phone again. He pursed his lips, and just when he was about to type something, the door suddenly opened.

Su Lie stood at the door, gasping for breath, his cheeks flushed, his down jacket unzipped, revealing his gray apron with dark clouds printed on it.

"Why are you here?" Yu Jingzhi ran to him quickly, closed the door first, and led him to the sofa to sit down.

Glancing at him, Su Lie turned his face away and stared at the floor, and said in a muffled voice, "Why can't I come? It's fine if you don't take the initiative to come to me, and I'm not allowed to come to you. Do you have a boyfriend as cold as you?"

Yu Jingzhi laughed: "I just said five words, where did you realize such a lot. I really cooked the noodles, if you don't believe me, go to the kitchen to see."

"No." Su Lie resolutely refused, and gave two choices in a humane manner, "Either you pour the noodles and go to my house to eat on an empty stomach; or you eat all the noodles and go to my house to eat on an empty stomach." He squinted, emphatically, "There is no third option."

"There are so many noodles, how can I go to your house for dinner after eating?"

"That's your business, who asked you to cook the noodles." Su Lie held up his mobile phone and said, "It's only five o'clock, and you have dinner so early now?"

Yu Jingzhi didn't say a word, Su Lie glanced at him, "Are you afraid that my parents will be angry if they find out about the two of us, are you not afraid that I will be angry?"

After being quiet for a while, when Su Lie thought that the atmosphere was going to freeze like this, Yu Jingzhi said suddenly: "I'm afraid."

Not far from dinner time, Su Lie sent a message to Wu Long saying that he would not be going tonight.He took off his work apron, stuffed it into the pocket of his down jacket, and let Yu Jingzhi lead him downstairs.

When they reached the gate of Su's house, the two tacitly let go.

Dong Cilian, who was serving dishes in the kitchen, leaned out to look when the door opened, and said with a smile, "I'm back so soon, I'm still chopping vegetables. There are fruits on the table. If you're hungry, eat some to fill your stomach."

After a few words, the two sat on the sofa, and there was a lot of fruit on the coffee table, but no one of them took it.

The worried Dong Cilian came out to take a look, and shouted at Su Lie who was playing with her mobile phone: "Little tree, go wash the fruit—"

Su Lie paused, looked around in the fruit bowl, chose an orange that didn't need to be washed and threw it to Yu Jingzhi.

"Forget about being lazy." Dong Cilian said angrily, softly told Yu Jingzhi to take whatever she wanted to eat, and returned to the kitchen to chop vegetables.

The navel orange was twirling in the palm of his hand, Yu Jingzhi quietly stuffed it back into the fruit plate, Su Lie just happened to look up from the phone screen.

He frowned slightly, and said timidly: "...I really can't eat anymore."

10 minutes ago, he finished a piece of noodles that was about to fall off, and he has no appetite now.

"You don't eat anything, my mother should scold me again." Su Lie pouted, "Peel it off, half of each person."

It was said to be half for each person, but in the end Su Lie only left one piece for Yu Jingzhi, and he was not allowed to eat it right away, only when Su Xueqing or Dong Cilian was present.

Yu Jingzhi held the thinnest piece of the whole orange, leaned towards Su Lie, smiled slightly, and said in a low voice: "It's Xiaoshu who is thoughtful, I'm afraid I'll have a stomachache if I eat too much."

"Who cares if your stomach hurts or not." Su Lie said blankly, "I don't want my mother to nag anymore, it's annoying to death."

"Oh, I'm being self-indulgent..." Yu Jingzhi replied with his head bowed, with a bit of grievance in his voice.

Glancing at him from the corner of his eye, Su Lie adjusted his posture unnaturally and asked, "Still stretched?"

"En." Yu Jingzhi nodded, and shamelessly grabbed his hand and put it on his stomach to feel it.

In fact, he didn't really want to eat half of it. First, it was too early and he lost his appetite.The second is that the noodles are lumpy, and the taste is indescribable.

But when he proposed to pour it out, Su Lie just stared at him without saying a word, so he had no choice but to continue eating.After barely eating two bites, he proposed to ask Su Lie to help eat a few chopsticks.

Su Lie lowered his face: "Am I a trash can? You can give me what you don't want to eat. Who told you to cook so much if you can't eat?"

Looking into his eyes, Yu Jingzhi kept silent, obediently ate all the food in one bite, helped him get dressed and led him downstairs.

Su Lie's complexion is better now.

The sound of chopping vegetables came from the kitchen, and Su Lie's hands rested on his slightly bulging stomach, a little irritated and excited.

He coughed twice, took his hand away, lowered his head and took away the orange pinched in his hand, and handed him a wet tissue.

Yu Jingzhi wiped the yellow juice on his fingers carefully, the corners of his mouth were raised high, his smile was so sweet that it seemed to be soaked in the whole orange.

Under Su Lie's trouble, the dinner was successfully pushed from 06:30 to [-]:[-].

Dong Cilian put the last dish on the table and glared at him: "You really treat yourself like a child, you don't care if others are hungry or not."

"You and dad finished a grapefruit, are you still hungry?" Su Lie said, "You guys have really good appetites."

Su Xueqing tapped his knuckles with chopsticks, "Why are you pretending to be stupid, what your mother said is respect."

"When my mother was chopping vegetables, he instructed me to peel three navel oranges. How can I go hungry?" Su Lie looked at Yu Jingzhi and asked sincerely, "Are you hungry?"

Yu Jingzhi shook his head with a smile, and said to the two elders: "I was really not hungry just now, but now I am a little hungry after seeing the dishes cooked by Aunt Lian. Why don't we eat first."

"Okay, let's eat." Dong Cilian picked up a chopstick and put the fish in Yu Jingzhi's bowl, "Xiao Yu, eat more, I haven't eaten for a long time. Is the hospital very busy?"

Yu Jing paused, and replied: "...Well, I'm a bit busy. The temperature difference was huge a few days ago, and many children caught cold."

He is in the Department of Pediatrics. It is true that the number of patients seen during this period has increased, but it has little impact on him as an ordinary intern.

After saying that, Su Lie, who was grilling rice, put the bowl on the table and hummed slightly.

Unexpectedly, Su Xueqing caught him straight, and another chopstick hit his finger.Su Lie rubbed his red fingers, resentful: "I can't even put the bowl, there is no reason for it."

Su Xueqing didn't bother to talk to him, and talked to Yu Jingzhi, he asked, "Jingzhi, where did you spend the Chinese New Year this year? Is your father back?"

"Return. But his vacation is short, and he can only stay for three to five days." Yu Jingzhi chewed slowly, wanting to chew ten times a mouthful of rice.

"Three or five days is fine, it's better than nothing." Su Xueqing said with emotion, "When you were just in primary school, Lao Yu was so busy that he couldn't come back once a year. It's all about your mother's planning for the New Year."

"Yeah, Meihong really worked hard at that time." As she was talking, Dong Cilian suddenly remembered something, glanced at her husband, and said weakly, "Xiao Yu, last time...you said your mother asked you to go on a blind date." ...Has she lost her mind?"

Yu Jingzhi put down the bowls and chopsticks, glanced at Su's father and mother who cared about him, and then at Su Lie who seemed to be concentrating on eating, and said solemnly: "No. But I told the blind date about my situation. We have no contact now. When my mother found out, she scolded me, and then I called her and she didn't answer."

"Why is Meihong like this..." Dong Cilian clenched her chopsticks tightly and muttered, "What age is it, and her thinking is still so feudal. She doesn't say anything when she is old, so she cares about it. It's not that she has no son, she doesn't usually hear about it. Don't ask, as soon as this kind of thing comes up, just pretend..."

"Okay."

Su Xueqing interrupted her, smiled at Yu Jingzhi, and said comfortingly: "Jingzhi, don't be too sad, your mother just can't turn the corner for a while, and it will be fine after a while. You are her son after all, so she can do without you. "

"Dad—" Su Lie suddenly said sharply, startling the three of them.

He quickly glanced at Yu Jingzhi, who was depressed, and corrected him sternly: "What do you want? We are your children, and we are not just random purchases. Auntie Meihong already has a new family, and Yu Jingzhi has already grown up." He is doing his son's duty to tell Aunt Meihong that it is her business that Aunt Meihong doesn't listen. No one asks her to understand."

"Yes, Xiaoshu is right." Dong Cilian regained her composure and echoed, "It's her fault that Meihong doesn't understand, Xiaoyu, you can just live your own life well. I didn't kill or set fire to do anything illegal. It's just... ...It's just different from ordinary people's thinking, and it doesn't matter."

She took another piece of fish belly meat with chopsticks into Yu Jingzhi's bowl, and said with a smile: "If there is a boy you like, I must bring it back to you, Aunt Lian, and Uncle Qing Xiaoshu. Let's have a meal together." Fan, let us check it out for you!"

"Yes! We are also very curious about which outstanding child can fascinate Jingzhi." Su Xueqing said.

Dong Cilian looked at Su Lie who was holding the bowl and couldn't close her mouth from ear to ear, and asked curiously: "Little tree, what are you laughing at?"

Su Lie hid the beauty in his heart tightly, looked at Yu Jingzhi generously, and said, "I'm just happy for him. I want to have such an excellent, outstanding partner."

All three were amused by him.

Yu Jingzhi suppressed his smile, looked at the elder opposite and said, "Thank you, Aunt Qing Shulian," and turned to look at Su Lie next to him, "Thank you, Xiaoshu, too."

He paused for two seconds, and said seriously: "When the time is right, I will definitely bring my dad and come to Aunt Qing Shulian to introduce the boy I like."
