Madam always runs away from home [Interstellar]

"Why don't you tell me in advance when you're here, so that I can send someone to the Major General's Mansion to pick you up." Dane walked up to Ren Xiao and said enthusiastically.

"Don't be so troublesome, I'm here with David." Compared with Dane, Ren Xiao's tone was obviously alienated, and he was only thinking about how to escape from his side as soon as possible.

When Dane heard that Ren Xiao said that he came with David, he immediately chuckled lightly, and said to him with something in his words: "I'm right~ Why is Erich willing to let you come to my place... so it is Brought here by David."

As soon as Dane's words fell, Ren Xiao immediately recognized the irony in his words, so he retorted angrily, "Erich didn't restrict my actions, let alone such trivial things."

"I'm going back to David's place. I'm sorry." After Ren Xiao said this, he left decisively without looking back.

Dane looked at Ren Xiao's leaving back, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, secretly proud.Thinking of how he cut off the communication in a panic just now, Dane guessed that the person who was talking to him just now should be Erich.Judging from Ren Xiao's reaction just now, Erich is not like what he said, he doesn't mind such trivial matters and gives him freedom of movement.Erich was really afraid of him, which made Dane feel a little proud.

At this moment, Ren Xiao was in a mess.In a panic just now, he hung up Erich's phone.I don't know if Erich heard Dane's voice, would he realize something?He is called a guilty conscience!Just now he had lied to Erich that he was at David's house, if he realized something was wrong later and called to ask, would he be honest with him?

All of a sudden, various uneasy thoughts emerged in Ren Xiao's heart, and he kept struggling.

On the other side, Erich, who was sitting in the office of the military department, had Dane's questioning voice echoing in his mind, and kept convincing himself that this must be an illusion.But in the end, he couldn't help calling Brook's video call.

"Where are you?" After the video call was connected, Erich asked straight to the point.

Brook: "I just left the house, on my way to the military headquarters. What's the matter, boss?"

Erich asked him in a deep voice, "Is Ren Xiao still at your house?"

Brooke thought for a while, and answered him, "He followed my David to some wine appreciation party, and left before I left home. He should be at that wine appreciation party now."

Brooke answered Erich truthfully, but immediately after he finished speaking, he saw Erich's face suddenly darken and frighteningly so.He asked Erich weakly, "Is there a problem?"

"No."

Erich hangs up the communication without warning, causing Brooke to feel terrified.He tilted his head and muttered in a low voice, "Did I say something wrong again? The major general's mood is really uncertain recently!"

After hanging up the communication, Erich glanced at the date displayed on the terminal—March 3.Isn't this the day Dane holds an appreciation party at home?It seems that the voice he heard in Ren Xiao's communication just now is not an illusion.

Thinking that Ren Xiao was at Dane's house at this moment, and he was lying to him, Erich's anger was about to rise to the top of his head, and he could no longer sit on the office chair.

However, just as Erich got up, put on his coat, and was about to go to Dane's house to arrest Ren Xiao, he received a video request from Ren Xiao.

Erich pressed to answer, and Ren Xiao's face immediately appeared on the screen in front of him.Ren Xiao didn't have any extra greetings, and said directly to Erich, "I'm sorry, I lied to you just now."

After thinking about it, Ren Xiao felt that he did not have the ability to completely hide today's events from Erich.If you said that you came here to accompany David, it was completely without his knowledge; the lying behavior just now was also an unconscious act in a hurry... But if Erich finds out the clue, question him again At that time, if he continues to lie in order to complete the lie, then the nature of this unconscious lie will completely change.

He knew that Erich didn't like Dane and didn't want him to have too much contact with Dane.Originally, he was afraid that Erich would think too much if he found out, so he told the first lie.But if things go on like this, things will only get more complicated.He was not confident that he could fool Erich perfectly, so Ren Xiao chose to confess in the end, before the situation became irreversible.

Seeing Ren Xiao take the initiative to confess to himself, Erich felt at ease in an instant.He looked at Ren Xiao quietly, and did not rush to speak, but wanted to leave enough room for Ren Xiao to explain.

Then, Ren Xiao said frankly to Erich: "I'm at Dane's house right now, at the scene of the appreciation party he held."

"Well, I know." Eli hoped for Ren Xiao and said calmly.

Ren Xiao was startled, did he really hear Dane's voice in the video just now?At the same time, he also felt fortunate that he chose to confess before being exposed by Erich.

After calming down, Ren Xiao continued to speak and explained to Erich: "Today I went to David's house to give him a birthday present. After that, he said he wanted me to accompany him to an appreciation party. I didn't say much. I agreed to him when I asked. When I arrived at the scene, I found out that this was Dane’s home. I felt that it was unfair to leave David here alone, so I bit the bullet and stayed. But I’m afraid you know would be unhappy, that's why..."

"That's why you chose to lie to me?" Erich made up for Ren Xiao's unspoken words.

Ren Xiao nodded honestly, and did not open his mouth to defend himself.He was apprehensive, and remained silent as if waiting for Erich's sentence.

Although Erich heard Ren Xiao's confession of mistakes, the anger in his heart had already dissipated.But in order for him to learn a lesson, Erich still pretended to reprimand severely: "No matter what the reason is, you are not allowed to lie to me again."

"Well, I promise." Ren Xiao assured Erich with words, and then he turned to Erich and asked, "Then you also promise me that you will never lie to me."

Hearing what Ren Xiao said, Erich lost his mind for a moment.In the bottom of his heart, it suddenly appeared that he lied to Ren Xiao that there is no earth.Erich was stunned for a moment, worried that Ren Xiao would only say this because he had noticed something.It was only later that he realized that he was too sensitive. He colluded with Professor Theodore to deceive Ren Xiao, and it was impossible for him to notice this.The reason why Ren Xiao made such a request was probably because he had just made a request not to allow him to lie. For the sake of fairness, Ren Xiao would ask him to do the same.

Then, Erich stabilized his mind, and said to Ren Xiao in an extremely firm tone: "I promise, I will never lie to you."

"...Well, I believe you." Ren Xiao was startled by Erich's unusually serious attitude, and hesitated for a while.

Erich also seemed to realize that he was too nervous, which made the atmosphere a little dignified.So, he changed the subject and asked Ren Xiao, "How long are you going to stay there?"

Ren Xiao replied truthfully: "I don't know either, let's see what happened to David. I promised to accompany him, so I don't want to leave alone."

"Well, I understand. I have nothing against you going there, I'm just worried about your safety. Now that you're all gone, have fun there. Remember what I told you before? You're free , I will not restrict your actions." Erich expressed his position to Ren Xiao.

Then, he told Ren Xiao: "When it's over, don't forget to ask Nilan to pick you up with his guards, and also send me a text message to let me know. My work today is about to end. If it ends before you, I will I'll pick you up at Dane's house."

Ren Xiao: "Well, I remember."

Erich spared no energy to care about his trivial matters in addition to his busy work, Ren Xiao was a little touched for a moment.

"Have fun, I won't bother you anymore." After saying this, Erich hung up the video call.

At this time, David suddenly ran over and pulled Ren Xiao, and said, "Why are you hiding here? Come with me over there, I found a delicious dessert, can you see if you can make it?"

Ren Xiao was dragged by David all the way around the main hall, he found that staying next to David made it very convenient to move around, no inexplicable people would come forward to strike up a conversation, and the crowd around him was also sparse, so Ren Xiao could enjoy himself freely. With wine and food.

After playing wildly with David for a while, Ren Xiao saw that the sky was getting dark outside.So he asked David, "Have you enjoyed yourself?"

David: "So-so."

Ren Xiao immediately suggested: "Since we have enjoyed ourselves, let's go back, it's getting late now."

"Ok."

Just when David finished speaking, Dane suddenly walked up to them and invited the two of them, "It's time for dinner now, and I specially ordered the chef who just came back from Taz to prepare a table of delicacies for you."

Having said that, Dane looked at Ren Xiao and said, "It's all Taz's hometown food. You haven't eaten it for a long time. You must miss it very much, right?"

Ren Xiao: "..."

Seeing that Ren Xiao didn't respond, Dane turned to conquer David and said, "You haven't had dinner with Brother Huang for a long time, so stay here today to catch up with me."

"Okay!" Before David could speak, a voice agreed behind him.

Ren Xiao and David turned their heads and saw Erich and Brook who had already walked in front of them at a glance.

"Why are you here?" David blurted out and asked.

Brook took David's hand, and said affectionately as if no one else was there: "I don't trust you."

"Tsk!" Dane clicked his tongue pretending to be dissatisfied when he saw Erich appearing.

Erich walked up to Ren Xiao, and asked Dane provocatively: "What's the matter, brother, didn't you say you want to reminisce about the past, or are you not welcome?"
