heartstrings

After dinner, Ke Zhihan didn't sit for too long, and chatted for about half an hour.

When she got off work, Ke Zhihan took Sheng Ruqi's car directly, and her own car was still parked at the company.Sheng Ruqi said to drive her back, but Ke Zhihan insisted not to.

After sending Ke Zhihan to the car, Sheng Ruqi and Ke Ruochu turned and walked back. Ke Ruochu was in a daze, still thinking about what Ke Zhihan told her tonight.

"Why do I feel that you are more like your sister-in-law than your mother?" Sheng Ruqi said, more referring to the character, Ke Zhihan gave people a gentle and easy-going feeling.

"Huh?" Ke Ruochu was distracted, and smiled again.

Sheng Ruqi could see that Ke Ruochu was a little out of sorts. To be precise, it was because after chatting with Ke Zhihan, she seemed to be in an unusually depressed mood.

It was a bit cold outside, Sheng Ruqi took Ke Ruochu's hand and led her home.

Back home, Ke Ruochu called Yuan Luzhi, but Yuan Luzhi didn't answer.

Maybe still angry.

Ke Ruochu thought about it, and sent Yuan Luzhi a WeChat message: Mom, I'll be back home in two days, let's calm down first.

Sheng Ruqi came out of the bathroom after taking a shower, and saw Ke Ruochu nestled on the sofa by the balcony, quietly staring at the night scene outside.

"Why don't you go to bed, don't catch a cold." Sheng Ruqi sat down next to Ke Ruochu, touched her arm, her pajamas were thin, "Go to bed early tonight, I didn't sleep well last night."

"Did I disturb you?" Ke Ruochu remembered that he couldn't sleep last night and turned over many times.

Ke Ruochu didn't sleep well, how could Sheng Ruqi sleep well.

Sheng Ruqi stared into Ke Ruochu's eyes, saw her brows frowning slightly, and asked softly, "What did my sister tell you today?"

Ke Ruochu turned around to face Sheng Ruqi, and smiled slightly, "She said that my mother didn't let us be together, it was just a moment of anger."

Laughing again, Sheng Ruqi could see her depression.

After staring at Sheng Ruqi for a while, Ke Ruochu's smile faded. She leaned her head on Sheng Ruqi's shoulder, closed her eyes and hugged her, and said frankly, "It's a bit uncomfortable. I always thought that the divorce was my mother's fault. I just found out tonight. , my dad cheated on me, don't want us anymore."

Sheng Ruqi hugged Ke Ruochu's thin body tightly, giving her a distressed and helpless hug. She could only accompany her to comfort her, but could not bear the pain in her heart instead.

Seeing Ke Ruochu's fragile and injured appearance, Sheng Ruqi's heart also ached.

After just hugging for a while, Ke Ruochu let go of Sheng Ruqi, put away her low mood just now, and whispered coquettishly, "I'm a little sleepy, go to sleep~"

The recent things are very bad, but Ke Ruochu doesn't want to give Sheng Ruqi too much negative emotion.

The next night, Sheng Ruqi asked Yuan Luzhi to meet, but Ke Ruochu was not with her.

Sheng Ruqi felt that she might be more effective than Ke Ruochu if she came forward, and she had to stand up and express her opinion on this matter.

"Auntie, I heard from Ruochu that you really like this tea, so I brought some more."

Standing at the door, Yuan Luzhi didn't go to pick up the gift from Sheng Ruqi, but only gave way indifferently, signaling Sheng Ruqi to enter the room.

"You have a heart." Ke Zhihan helped to take it, which made the atmosphere in the room a little less awkward, "You two have a good chat."

Ke Zhihan temporarily avoided it.

On the sofa, the two sat down.

Sheng Ruqi spoke first, "Auntie, I came here today to tell you about my relationship with Ruochu."

"Xiao Sheng." Yuan Luzhi even changed her address, with no expression on her face, and she didn't beat around the bush, "Let me tell you straight, I don't like the two of you together, and I won't support you. You are not young Now, it's time to think about getting married, and now you're looking for a... little girl, isn't this a joke and a waste of your time? "

"Auntie, do you think Ruochu and I are together casually?" Although Yuan Luzhi said it from her own point of view, Sheng Ruqi still understood the key point, "If I wasn't serious, I wouldn't need to be together today." Come to see you. We are together, and we are ready to marry in the future..."

"Marry." Yuan Luzhi cut off Sheng Ruqi's words, "Have you thought about it clearly? Ruochu is ten years younger than you, and the ten years difference is not just age, your vision, your three views and all aspects of conditions are not on the same level .Your qualifications are so good, there should be many people chasing you, why don't you find someone more suitable for you?"

"As you said, I am not young, so I know what I want more clearly. I know that Ruochu is the person I want to find. No two people are naturally suitable for each other. Although there is a gap between us, but because We like each other, we are willing to adjust and change for each other, and we are very compatible together. I think this is suitable."

"You know what you want, but do you know Ruochu? Don't look at her in her twenties, she is actually an immature big kid. She likes things at her age. Ruochu doesn't have her own opinions. I arranged everything for her until now, and I'm sure that she never considered reality when she was with you. Do you think you are suitable? I think you are too impulsive. "

"Auntie, maybe you don't know much about our relationship." After a pause, Sheng Ruqi didn't answer directly, but instead asked a rhetorical question, "But, do you really understand Ruochu?"

Yuan Luzhi said coldly: "She is my daughter, how could I not understand."

After Sheng Ruqi pondered for a while, "Then you know, does she always cry alone while playing ball? She told me that she has been living a depressed life, unable to make decisions on her own, as if her life is not her own. She also said that she I don’t like playing the piano, but I insist on practicing because when she practices well, you will be happier. She listens to your arrangement, not without her own ideas, but just doesn’t want to make you angry and sad. She told me more than once, saying You only have her, and she must treat you well."

She said a lot in one breath, and when talking about these things, Sheng Ruqi really felt distressed.

After turning to this topic, Yuan Luzhi became more and more silent as if there was a lump in her throat, her heart was heavy like lead, and every sentence stuck in her heart, especially when she heard the last sentence.

"Ruochu is more mature and sensible than you imagined. She really loves you and considers your feelings. She had a quarrel that day, and she is still suffering. I came today to show my love for Ruochu. The second is that I really hate to see her depressed every day. She really wants your support, even if it is just a tacit approval, she will be very happy. Auntie, give us a chance?"

Yuan Luzhi rested her elbows on the sofa, supported her forehead, and did not speak for a long time.

Sheng Ruqi knew that she had hit a sensitive topic. Although she was an outsider in the relationship between mother and daughter, she still wanted to work hard to reconcile. She didn't want to see Ke Ruochu depressed about these things every day.

"She is still studying, and studying medicine is no different than others. She may continue her studies or even go abroad to study for a doctorate. When she really matures and has seen the outside world, she may find that everything is not what she wants I want it. Besides, you are so much older than her..."

When she spoke again, Yuan Luzhi's attitude softened obviously, and she rationally talked about possible problems.

Yuan Luzhi naturally hoped that Ke Ruochu would find someone in the same circle, understand each other in life, and support each other in career, which would be the best.

But Ke Ruochu made such a fuss because of Sheng Ruqi, she actually has nothing to do.

Sheng Ruqi could hear Yuan Luzhi's subtext.

"I have considered these issues. I know she is still young, and her future is still uncertain, but I believe in the relationship between us." She has never experienced this anxiety, Sheng Ruqi slowed down, and continued to insist, " Taking a ten thousand step back, even if Ruochu thinks I'm not suitable for her and she doesn't want me anymore, I won't regret that I love her now..."

After Yuan Luzhi heard this, she couldn't answer. Someone was willing to be so serious about her daughter, after all, she was somewhat moved.

"In the past, I was also concerned about the age issue. Even if I had a crush on Ruochu before, I didn't think about chasing her or being with her. I thought, how could I be with a little girl. But I don't know what's wrong, I just really like this little girl, and I can't help caring about her, so I had to pretend to be my sister. I struggled and considered for a long time, and when I decided to be with her, I was fully prepared." Sheng Ruqi Recalling all kinds of things, he lowered his head and said with a smile, every word was as serious as digging out his heart.

Sheng Ruqi never imagined that she would have such a day.

"Auntie, you may need some time to accept this matter, but I promise you first, I will take good care of Ruochu and make her happy."

Yuan Luzhi listened quietly, lowered her eyes, and then sighed softly.

It seems helpless, but also seems to compromise.

After Sheng Ruqi left.

Ke Zhihan walked up to Yuan Luzhi with a teacup in hand, "How did the chat go?"

Yuan Luzhi took the teacup and took a sip without making a sound.

Ke Zhihan laughed. With Yuan Luzhi's character, this awkward reaction basically belonged to "being captured".

After all, the attitude of opposition was so strong before.

"I went to see them two days ago. Ruqi was afraid that Ruochu's work would be too far away, so she rented an apartment near the hospital, and the school is only a few minutes' walk away."

"The two of them raised a dog and a cat. Ruqi can also cook, and her craftsmanship is also good. Don't worry, I'll check it out for you. She loves your daughter..."

Ke Zhihan read a lot on the sidelines. Although Yuan Luzhi didn't say a word, she listened quietly, trying to be as serious as possible.

"Do you want to visit them?"

Yuan Luzhi turned her face away, "Not interested."

Ke Zhihan only saw that her mouth was stubborn, and it probably wouldn't last for a few days. Her daughter was her heart, so how could she let it go.

Ke Ruochu originally thought that Yuan Luzhi would have a cold war with her for a long time.

As a result, on Saturday afternoon, when she was about to get off work, she saw Yuan Luzhi send her a wechat on her own initiative: Is there any class tonight?

Ke Ruochu immediately replied: No

Yuan Luzhi sent another message: go home for dinner

Sure enough, he gave in.

Ke Ruochu was so happy that he wrote a line in the input box, and I will bring her back together...

After finishing writing, Ke Ruochu thought about it and deleted it.

Tangled.

2 minutes passed.

The phone message rang again.

Ke Ruochu was dumbfounded staring at the screen, because her mother sent a message slowly:

Take your girlfriend with you.
