to demand

Shen Lingfeng came back late, and he was still nowhere to be seen by dinner time.

Xu Mo didn't want to wait for him either.

Chu Qin was arguing that she was hungry, so she went back to China in the afternoon and went straight to the hotel to find Xu Mo, expressing that she missed the food in her hometown very much, and was thinking about finding a good restaurant to fill her stomach at night.

When Shen Lingfeng didn't come back, Chu Qin hesitated, and asked Xu Mo tentatively, "Brother, can you wait for Dr. Shen?"

Tokugawa just knocked on the door and came in to ask for dinner.

"Wait." Xu Mo said, and ordered Tokugawa: "Order takeaway."

Chu Qin: "..."

"Brother," Chu Qin said sadly, "I don't want to order takeaway."

Xu Mo raised his eyelids: "I didn't say it was for you."

"..."

"Brother, you are so cruel." Chu Qin felt aggrieved, rubbed his chin and suggested, "Why don't we go out to eat, there is a Cantonese morning tea shop next to the CBD, shall we go?"

Xu Mo turned his head and looked at her.Chu Qin was so stared at by him that his heart was trembling, and he smiled embarrassingly: "What's wrong, brother?"

"Chu Qin," Xu Mo called by name, "Do you think my legs are suitable for going out?"

Chu Qin was so used to it, he didn't think about it so much, and was stunned by Xu Mo's question for a moment, and he stood there in a daze.Tokugawa sighed silently in his heart, and stepped forward to remind: "Miss, you should go home instead of coming to Ningbei, the young master doesn't like your family."

"I know." Chu Qin grinned stiffly, took two steps back, sat back in the leather chair, lowered his head, and apologized in a very low voice: "I'm sorry, brother."

Xu Mo remained silent, looked down at his phone, and after a while, threw the phone to Tokugawa: "The takeaway from the morning tea shop, order it, you ask them to make it as soon as possible."

Tokugawa responded, "Yes."

Chu Qin raised his eyes and blinked at Xu Mo.Xu Mo looked tired, leaned back into the wheelchair, and sighed in a low voice: "Annoying."

Chu Qin chuckled, leaned close to him, and said flatteringly, "Brother, I'll rub your legs for you."

Xu Mo raised his hand and patted her paws away, Chu Qin persistently rubbed up on her, rubbed Xu Mo's legs, and muttered softly, "Brother, your legs are fine, why can't you stand up?"

"Heart disease." Xu Mo said to himself.

Chu Qin didn't take it seriously, she still remembered Xu Mo from the past, he didn't take big things to heart, he was born with a heartless appearance, as if he didn't care much, so nothing could overwhelm him.

Since when, Xu Mo also started to have something on his mind.

A person like him is born with a golden spoon in his mouth, and if he wants the wind or the rain, he will feel bored at most, but everything is going well, so there are so many worries in his heart.

Since when did I start to worry.

"Brother," Chu Qin sighed silently, leaning back with his arm in his arms, and asked in a daze, "Because of whom, Dr. Shen?"

Girls' intuition is always accurate.

Xu Mo was silent, Chu Qin looked up at him: "You blame yourself for my aunt's death, don't you?"

"No." Xu Mo flatly denied.

"Oh..." Chu Qin twitched the corner of his mouth, and neither of them spoke.Chu Qin, who was such a noisy person, quieted down, causing a strange embarrassment in the small bedroom.

"When are you going to get out?" Xu Mo asked.Chu Qin called out, "Brother, why are you rushing me away!"

"Noisy." Xu Mo looked indifferent.

Chu Qin's sarcastic remarks to Xu Mo didn't take it to heart at all. She had been bullied by Xu Mo since she was a child, although Xu Mo used to use a joking tone before, but now he has become cold and hard, difficult to deal with.

"Brother, next month... Grandpa's birthday, or you, don't go back." Chu Qin said tentatively.

"Can you hide from this kind of thing?" Xu Mo asked coolly.

Chu Qin's throat choked up, and he paused for the next sentence. He didn't think about what to say. No one would feel comfortable when such a thing happened to him.Besides, Chu Wanjun has never mentioned Xu Mo's life experience in the past 20 years, including Xu Mo's grandfather.

"Then what do you do?" Chu Qin was more anxious than himself: "My mother is going to be cruel this time."

"Mind your own business." Xu Mo didn't accept her kindness.

Chu Qin couldn't figure out what was going on in Xu Mo's mind. Considering her own status, Chu Qin stopped asking more questions and relied on Xu Mo to play with his mobile phone and wait for the takeaway.

Shen Lingfeng arrived before the takeaway.

At about seven o'clock, Shen Lingfeng came back with two packs of roast duck.

At that time Chu Qin hugged Xu Mo affectionately and acted like a baby: "Brother."

The roast duck in Shen Lingfeng's hand almost fell to the ground. He carried the packing box and put it on the glass round table in the living room, and walked into the bedroom.The young girl held Xu Mo's arm, Xu Mo bowed his head, and the two were talking.

Shen Lingfeng looked at them quietly, Xu Mo noticed his gaze, looked up, Chu Qin's voice also stopped, and turned to look at Shen Lingfeng.

The three of them were silent in unison.

"Hello." Chu Qin stood up in a hurry. If he was able to enter the hotel to find Xu Mo, he would be very close, if not a friend.

"Hello." Shen Lingfeng nodded with a cool handsome face, and then Chu Qin walked in and said to Xu Mo, "I bought dinner, let's go out to eat."

"I ordered takeaway." Xu Mo closed his eyes, feeling a slight pain deep in his brain.

What responded to him was the movement of Shen Lingfeng turning around and pushing the wheelchair, Xu Mo opened his eyes: "Shen Lingfeng!"

Shen Lingfeng pushed the wheelchair out of the bedroom, went to the glass round table, and bent over to place the lunch box, which was only for two people.

Chu Qin stared straight at the side, so embarrassed that his feet had no place to rest.

"Brother." Chu Qin whispered, "Who is this?"

Shen Lingfeng said better than Xu Mo: "He is married."

Chu Qin opened his mouth wide: "Ah..." He changed into a familiar smile of seeing his relatives: "Brother Shen!"

Shen Lingfeng: "..."

Xu Mo: "..."

"Chu Xiaoqin's daughter." Xu Mo thought Chu Qin was ashamed.

Shen Lingfeng was startled, and smiled lowly: "I made a mistake, I thought she was..."

Xu Mo raised his eyes, Shen Lingfeng paused, didn't say anything, and looked back at Chu Qin who had nowhere to rest his hands and feet, this time his tone was much gentler: "Have you eaten the bowl of rice, come over and have some."

"..." Chu Qin felt something was wrong, and grinned awkwardly: "Well, my brother ordered takeaway, and I'll just wait for the takeaway, you two eat, leave me alone."

"I'm not hungry." Xu Mo pushed the wheelchair away from the glass round table.

Chu Qin opened his mouth, thinking, the atmosphere between these two people is not quite right.

Shen Lingfeng was not annoyed, and did it himself, dipped the dough with scallions and duck meat in sauce, wrapped a piece and handed it to Xu Mo.

Xu Mo didn't answer, Shen Lingfeng was quite patient, and fed it to his mouth, waiting for Xu Mo to open his mouth.

So there was a stalemate like this, Xu Mo's teeth were clenched tightly, and Shen Lingfeng held his shoulder and kneaded it gently.

Even Chu Qin couldn't bear to watch it anymore, so he chuckled: "Brother, just take a bite, Brother Shen is not easy."

"It's not easy?" Xu Mo turned his head and stared at her: "It's not easy to bring it back, or is it difficult to place an order at the restaurant?"

Chu Qin raised his hands in a gesture of surrender: "I was wrong brother."

Shen Lingfeng said: "Children have a temper."

When Xu Mo opened his mouth to speak, the roast duck took the opportunity to stuff it into his mouth. It was quite delicious. It happened that Xu Mo was hungry waiting for the takeaway, so he didn't struggle too much. He chewed and swallowed it into his stomach. Very reluctantly.

Takeaway has arrived.

Chu Qin rushed over to pick up the dinner for two as if she had been pardoned, and said that she could do it alone, so Xu Mo shouldn't waste Dr. Shen's good intentions, go eat the roast duck.

Dr. Shen thought that sister-in-law was really sensible, so she bowed her back and served Master Xu for dinner.

Chu Qin felt that he was a bit of an eyesore, so he ran away immediately after the delivery.

Xu Mo's belly was full, and Shen Lingfeng ate up the rest.

Xu Mo pushed the wheelchair to the floor-to-ceiling windows of the living room. Shen Lingfeng packed up the round table, stepped over, and stood behind him: "What do you think?"

Xu Mo didn't answer him, Shen Lingfeng felt bored, turned on the TV and skipped to the flower arrangement show.

Xu Mo finally moved, turned his head, turned around, and stared straight at him.The corner of Shen Lingfeng's mouth twitched, and he grinned: "Xu Mo."

He pushed Xu Mo back to the TV and asked Xu Mo if he was tired from sitting.

Xu Mo didn't speak, Shen Lingfeng picked him up and sat back on the sofa, letting Xu Mo lean on his shoulder.Xu Mo opened his mouth to yawn, and Shen Lingfeng patted his head.

"Boring." Xu Mo said, Shen Lingfeng thought for a while: "What do you want to play?"

"Not interested." Xu Mo closed his eyes.

Shen Lingfeng is a doctor, and doctors are always easy to detect changes, both psychological and physical.Xu Mo didn't even watch the must-see flower arrangement show every night. Shen Lingfeng stared at the LCD screen and meditated. The flower arranger was explaining the flower language of tulips of different colors.

Xu Mo didn't speak, Shen Lingfeng took the initiative to strike up a conversation: "Well, I remember you said that you have a tulip garden in the Netherlands."

The people around him still didn't speak, Shen Lingfeng continued persistently: "Red tulips, love and confession, do you know?"

"..."

"Black tulip, mysterious and noble."

"..."

"Xu Mo." Shen Lingfeng whispered.

"I don't want to watch." Xu Mo was sleepy: "It's noisy."

"Yes." Shen Lingfeng stretched out his long arms to catch him.Xu Mo closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Shen Lingfeng simply picked him up and put him back under the quilt. Xu Mo opened his eyes and stared at the ceiling.Shen Lingfeng found that he was always in a trance recently, staring at one place fixedly, as if in a daze, or lost his soul.

Shen Lingfeng took off his shoes and coat, lifted the quilt and got in. Xu Mo didn't move and didn't tell him to get out.Shen Lingfeng looped around his waist, holding Xu Mo's hand, it was cold.

"Is it cold?" Shen Lingfeng pressed his head into his neck, and tucked the corner of the quilt tightly.

"Not cold." Xu Mo narrowed his eyes: "Shen Lingfeng."

"Ok?"

"When I was young…"

Xu Mo wanted to talk about his childhood, Shen Lingfeng encouraged him: "Say it, I'll listen."

Speaking up is better than anything.

"I had a good life when I was a child." Xu Mo's eyelids were closed, he didn't look at anything, and his tone was dreamy and murmured, as if it had been passed down from the distant past to the present: "When my mother was still there, she was very kind to me. Good. Actually, we don’t go back to Ningbei very often.”

"Stay in Japan most of the time." Xu Mo murmured: "Later, my mother's company opened in Shanghai, and I went back to China to study. When I was ten years old, I was in China. Xu Yunze also went to the father's cooking branch."

"You have been living in Shanghai."

"Ah."

Until I met Shen Lingfeng last year, so I went back to Ningbei, the old nest of the Xu family.

"I don't like it here." Xu Mo breathed out.

Shen Lingfeng knew why he didn't like it here, because the Xu family didn't treat him very well, his brother was not like his brother and his father, and he had no affection at all.

Shen Lingfeng patted him lightly on the shoulder: "My hometown is on the edge of Ningbei, Chuxi, do you know?"

"Ah."

"There is a very big ginkgo tree in the yard, which has been there since I was born." Shen Lingfeng clasped his fingers, rubbed them slowly, and warmed them up.

"Two or three families live in the same yard, and when it snows, they have snowball fights and build snowmen together. It used to snow, but it snowed every year. I don't know when it started. It stopped snowing, and it never snowed again after that. Our nature teacher said, the weather is getting warmer, so it won’t snow.”

Xu Mo smiled and grinned slightly.

Shen Lingfeng thought slightly: "Xu Mo."

Xu Mo still closed his eyes: "What?"

"Where do you want to go to play, I can still ask for leave this year." Shen Lingfeng bent his elbows to support his side cheeks, and turned to him: "Go with you."

"..." Xu Mo opened his eyes: "Let's go to your house."

Shen Lingfeng was slightly stunned: "Chuxi? There is nothing interesting there, except for mountains and water, there is nothing to see." A place without even tourist attractions, good mountains and rivers, so lonely.

"You grew up there." Xu Mo said.

Shen Lingfeng smiled: "Well, until I came to Ningbei in high school."

"Go and have a look." Xu Mo said thoughtfully, "Where you grew up."

"Okay." Shen Lingfeng hugged him.

The strange thing is that Xu Mo is clearly in his arms at the moment, but Shen Lingfeng has the illusion that Xu Mo is far away from him. He can't see through Xu Mo, and he doesn't know what he is thinking, but he can feel the heavy burden on Xu Mo's shoulders. .

The mountain-like burden weighed on him, making it difficult for Xu Mo to take every step, as if he was enduring some kind of ascetic ordeal, and he had to cross mountains and seas to reach the other shore.

But whether the other shore is an illusory illusion or not, there is no way of knowing.

Xu Mo grew up smoothly. Chu Wanjun never asked her son to be such a great person. She was extremely tolerant of Xu Mo and developed Xu Mo's arrogant personality.However, a car accident was enough to make Xu Mo gloomy.

Shen Lingfeng suddenly realized that he didn't know Xu Mo that well.

Just like at this moment, Xu Mo seemed to be hiding something, but Shen Lingfeng didn't know it.

"What are you going to do?" Shen Lingfeng asked him suddenly, with his head lowered, his eyes met.

"No." Xu Mo said softly, "Next month..."

Next month, Jiang Mingxuan will be able to come back.
