This trick is wrong!

At the dining table, seeing Cui Qingjie entered the bathroom, Chen Shiru slapped the chopsticks on the table, "Look at what you put in for me, it's so spicy, are you going to curse me for acne! This, it's so salty, give it back to me!" I took a big bite, you want me to have high blood pressure!"

Lu Ran also put down his chopsticks, and couldn't help laughing, "I see you're so happy to eat," Lu Ran deliberately imitated the other party with Chen Shiru's exaggerated tone, "So I ask you to eat more."

Shaken by Lu Ran's smile, Chen Shiru cursed in a low voice. "Look at your honesty, I didn't expect it to be so bad." He dragged all the dishes he didn't like on his plate into the trash can, and picked out a few things that suit his appetite and put them on the plate, "Your mother's face is dark, I guess you It's too bad, I'll see what you do in a while."

Lu Ran took a sip of tea, looking very calm.

In fact, Huo Yichen designed this plan for him to come out of the closet is also very simple, but for him whose parents are both teachers, it seems to be tailor-made.

Teachers are strict with their children's education, but they also have a strong sense of responsibility.

In view of this, Huo Yichen asked Chen Shiru to be his girlfriend.

Chen Shiru has a high spirit, and it is impossible to have thoughts about a man who has a lover. This is probably the main reason why Huo Yichen chose Chen Shiru.

When Cui Qingjie came to D City, the two of them vigorously showed off their affection in front of Cui Qingjie, which made Cui Qingjie realize that this son of hers had an extraordinary and excessive pampering towards his girlfriend.

But Cui Qingjie also knew that her son was not such an enthusiastic person, so she wanted to know why his son doted on his girlfriend so much...

When Cui Qingjie came back, his complexion was better.

Lu Ran knew that she already understood that there was something wrong with the relationship between him and Chen Shiru, so she calmed down and planned to find a chance to ask him.

In the afternoon, Lu Ran showed more enthusiasm for Chen Shiru, almost responding to every request and pampering him.

But Cui Qingjie also noticed that there was almost no physical contact between his son and Chen Shiru. The two were very affectionate, but their bodies seemed very cold.

She also saw that once Chen Shiru wanted to hold her son's arm, but was rejected by her son, and then the son coaxed and teased, and finally made the pouting girl happy.

Even after living for more than 50 years, she still can't fully figure out what's going on.

All the things they wanted to buy were bought in the afternoon. This time, at Cui Qingjie's suggestion, they sent Chen Shiru away first.

Chen Shiru got off the car in front of a beauty salon, and said that she invited a friend to have a beauty treatment together.

There were only their mother and son left in the car, and Lu Ran casually chatted with Cui Qingjie as if nothing had happened.

As soon as the topic changed, Cui Qingjie went straight to the point: "Of course, what's going on with you and this Chen Shiru?"

Even though he knew that his mother hadn't noticed the real relationship between him and Chen Shiru, Lu Ran's heart skipped a beat at the other party's stern tone.

So the guilty conscience and apprehension were expressed more vividly.

Lu Ran didn't speak, but Cui Qingjie was sure that there must be a problem between his son and that girl, and it wasn't a purely emotional problem.

"Find a place, let's sit down." Cui Qingjie casually pointed to the side, indicating to Lu Ran to find a suitable place for chatting nearby.

Lu Ran was reluctant, but he quickly found a cold drink hall.

There were not too many people during the day, and the waiter ushered them into a single room in the back.

The two ordered some drinks casually, and Lu Ran stroked the glass of iced drink he ordered uneasy, not daring to look into Cui Qingjie's eyes.

Of course, these performances were all designed by him in advance.

The only thing he didn't expect was that his mother would find out the problem between him and Chen Shiru so quickly, and chose to have a showdown with him.

It seems that he behaved too much today and made his mother anxious.

"Speak, I'll listen." Cui Qingjie put on the expression of a teacher interrogating a student again.

To be honest, Lu Ran was really afraid of the other party's attitude. Every time he saw him when he was a child, he would be scared to death. Even now that he has grown up, he is still a little afraid.

"It's nothing, Mom, why are you asking that suddenly?" Lu Ran forced a smile, "I like Shiru very much..." Speaking of this, Lu Ran was thinking of another tall and tough shadow, so he didn't need to make a special effort. During the performance, the eyes also dodged a little bit flutteringly.

"Don't lie to me, you really like her, you won't go a day without touching her, I mean, physical contact."

Lu Ran was shocked, "I didn't expect" to be discovered this small detail, Lu Ran hesitated and couldn't speak, but it was enough to explain the problem.

Cui Qingjie knew that she had guessed right, there was indeed a problem between the two.

Not wanting to push him too hastily, Cui Qingjie softened his attitude and asked twice what happened.

As if Lu Ran had finally made up his mind, he said to her, "Mom, I do have something to hide from you...but I don't want to say it right now."

"Then when can you tell me?"

"Before you leave City D, next weekend, I'll tell you, is it okay?"

Cui Qingjie nodded, feeling a little heavy.

What was it that made him think about it for a week before telling her?

She had guessed before, for example, the two had accidentally made a mistake, the girl had an abortion for Lu Ran and her son spoiled her desperately, but this shouldn't be the reason why they didn't even have physical contact.

Unable to figure it out, she could only put it aside and wait for her son to tell her.

On the way back to the school hotel, the atmosphere in the car was very oppressive, and neither of them had the desire to speak.

Before getting out of the car, Cui Qingjie only told his son not to do anything wrong to others, Lu Ran nodded with a very frustrated and sad expression.

However, when Cui Qingjie completely left his sight, he showed another state, heaved a sigh of relief, as if he was one step closer to his goal.

As soon as he got home, Gong Zhichao called and asked him what he was up to recently.

"Well, it's nothing. Recently, I'm trying to find a way to come out to my family."

Gong Zhichao said 'oh' at first, and after two seconds, he yelled back, "What? What did you just say??"

"I said, I want to come out to my family."

"Fuck, Lu Ran, I really don't see how courageous you are! I thought you were going to hold back forever."

Lu Ran snorted twice, "What can I do if I don't hold back when I don't have a date?"

"So, you have really considered this now?"

Lu Ran thought of 'now this', and smiled unconsciously, "It's okay, it's just him if there is no accident."

Gong Zhichao sighed after hearing this, and from Lu Ran's tone, he could tell that the man was smiling happily at the moment, "I didn't expect that my personal problem was not solved, but you were the first to get there."

"Hey, what does it mean to get there first," Lu Ran said, "I call it a hit. But... your personal problem has not been resolved? Didn't you just fall in love with a goddess a while ago, and you bought gifts and showed your affection? What's wrong? "

"Hey, my goddess, I didn't expect that she only regarded me as a spare tire."

Upon hearing this, Lu Ran immediately said, "Chao, since this is the case, you must stop rushing and dump her."

"Dumped," Gong Zhichao's tone sounded very low, "but she said she liked me again and asked me to wait for her."

"Fuck his sister, Chaozi, it's my brother, break off with him immediately!"

Gong Zhichao can't be cruel, after all, he likes him sincerely, he knows what to do is right, but it's too painful to do.

After hearing this, Lu Ran explained to him, and at the same time listed all kinds of unworthy things for him, and praised Gong Zhichao's wise move of reining in the precipice by dumping the goddess.

Lu Ran also felt very angry when his good friend was treated as a backup. Thinking of himself, he felt that if Huo Yichen used him as a backup, he would probably castrate him.

When Huo Yichen got home, he caught up with Lu Ran who was still angry, and the look in his eyes made him startled.

What's wrong?Like he did something wrong.

Lu Ran complied with Gong Zhichao's three views, and after some ideological education, he hung up the phone.

Because he just vented his anger to Huo Yichen for no reason, Lu Ran immediately explained.

Men don't regard a relationship as a private matter, and Gong Zhichao doesn't mind others knowing his tragic experience.

So, Lu Ran told Huo Yichen about his brother, and many people joined him in condemning that woman, and Lu Ran felt more comfortable.

After Huo Yichen heard about it, he expressed sympathy for Gong Zhichao's situation, and shook his head, saying that women are simply the most fickle and unreliable creatures in the world, and in the eyes of men, they will always be fascinated.

If you want to really understand them, unless you peel off your skin.

Lu Ran highly agrees.

During the week before the thorough confrontation with Cui Qingjie, Lu Ran lived expectantly and anxiously.

He was looking forward to feeling relieved and relaxed after explaining everything. As for anxiety...he had too many things to worry about.

At the same time, the situation in Huo Yichen's family has undergone new changes.

Due to the turmoil in the stock market, the company's operating conditions were somewhat unstable. After Huo Yichen found out, he sat on the sofa for a long time.

After finishing all the magazine work, Lu Ran found that Huo Yichen was still sitting there, so he walked over and knelt down beside him.

"If you're so worried, go back. I'm afraid that uncle has worked too hard recently and hurt his body."

After hearing what he said, the man turned his head to look at him, leaned back, and put on a comfortable pose, "He has experienced much more storms and waves than me, and this small situation is not enough for him , I'm not worried about that."

"Then why are you looking sullen?"

"Originally, it was to help you earn money from the garage, but now it seems that I have entrusted you with it." Huo Yichen said, pointing to the stock market news.

Lu Ran was stunned for a moment before realizing that the other party was talking about stocks.

Is it because of this...

"How many garages do you want to earn? Didn't you say that you already have one..."

"Of course at least two are needed," Huo Yichen said excitedly, "There must always be a place for my car."

"...You are relying on me."

After Lu Ran finished speaking, he felt that he hadn't discussed the matter of money with Huo Yichen properly.

Because at the beginning, he was attracted by the high price offered by the other party, and this series of things happened later. Perhaps in the other party's heart, he was still that "money stringer".

He had to explain himself.

"Brother Huo, I don't know how you position me in your heart now. Maybe you think I'm a person who loves money more."

Seeing Lu Ran sitting down and talking seriously, Huo Yichen also restrained his half-joking expression before, and listened seriously.

"I admit that it was because Qian agreed to act with you at the beginning, but in fact I don't value money very much..." At this point, Lu Ran rolled his eyes, "Well, it seems too unconvincing to say that, anyway, I want to tell you that I was dazzled by money in the past, but I am with you now, not because of your money. As for the past, at first I thought it was impossible for us. After all, with your shrewdness, you must I don't like materialistic people like me, but during the contact process, I feel that you have not misunderstood my character. I like money, but I don't like you because of money, so..."

The same meaning, Lu Ran said repeatedly, a little eager to explain.

Lu Ran, who always has a clear mind, will lose the advantage of language expression, which shows that he is not in the mood to polish his language, and because of this, it makes people feel his sincerity.

"So you mean you like me?" Before Lu Ran could finish speaking, Huo Yichen interrupted Lu Ran at what he thought was the most important point.

"Ah?" Lu Ran was still in a hurry to clarify himself, but Huo Yichen suddenly pulled him out of a long explanation that hadn't finished in time, and was a little dazed.

Thinking back to the previous scene, Lu Ran was startled to realize that he had accidentally said something wrong just now, and actually said 'I don't like you because of money'...

"Okay, I already understand." Huo Yichen stretched out his long arms, hugged Lu Ran, and pressed him into his arms, "There is no need to explain so much, or do you think I can buy you with money?"

"I don't think what I just said is very good. It's a bit... The words don't convey the meaning." Lu Ran was still a little confused, "So, there is no need... Shall I... talk about it properly?"

"No need, what you just expressed is very good and simple. Besides, I have never misunderstood your character. What I care about most now is whether what you just said is a promise to my pursuit?"
