springtime

"Did I get bitten by a dog last night?" Cen Ran muttered.

Luo Shishu shaved next to him, glanced at him, then showed the tooth marks on his shoulder, and said, "Is my situation more similar?"

Cen Ran glanced at it, felt that the tooth marks still hurt a little, pretended not to care and wiped off the water droplets on his face, but still couldn't hold back, leaned over to blow on it, Luo Shixu touched the back of his neck, and Like a kitten.

It was Luo Shixu who drove back to Tongcheng. He wanted to take Cen Ran to the door of his house, and then take a taxi home by himself.Luo Mu moved to a new house the year before last, almost a whole city away from Cen Ran's house.

Luo Shixu parked the car, and Cen Ran took a nap in the car. When he got out of the car, his hair was a little messy. Luo Shixu stopped him and combed it a few times.Cen Ran said: "Would you like to sit at my house for a while?"

Taking out the trolley case from the back seat, Luo Shixu said, "Let's not do it this time, and I didn't bring the gifts prepared by my uncles and aunts."

"My parents mentioned you before, and it's been a long time since I saw you." Cen Ran said, and then realized the amount of information in Luo Shixu's sentence, "Did you buy gifts for my parents? Why are you being so polite?"

"It's polite, and it's not about Gu Xun coming to your house to copy your homework, and just calling sweetly uncle and aunt with empty hands." Luo Shixu said, "Didn't you also buy it for my mother?"

Cen Ran felt that his little secret had been discovered, and said, "Guan Xianglan told you..."

"Guess, I still don't understand you." After Luo Shixu finished speaking, he straightened Cen Ran's collar, "Don't worry, the project is just over, you should go home and get a good night's sleep."

After returning home and watching Luo Shixu slowly walk out of the community on the balcony, Cen Ran sighed, if he still lived upstairs, he wouldn't have to make a long detour.

Luo Shixu would definitely stay up late every time he was on a business trip, and he came here in such a hurry that he was still jet-lagged, so he was the one who should rest the most.

It has become a habit to wash your face with cold water when you feel sleepy, and it has been like this since high school until now, but when Luo Shixu was around, he only asked Cen Ran to use warm water, and then told Cen Ran to go to bed when he was sleepy with a frown.

After Cen Ran washed his face, he became more energetic. He helped Cen's mother wash the vegetables, and Cen's father went to pick up the old man to have a New Year's Eve dinner with him.

"I can cook some simple dishes. I'll cook tonight?" Cen Ran asked.

Cen's mother said: "After being away for a year, how can I let my top student go home and go to work, wash the dishes and watch TV."

"I want to spend more time with you."

After Cen Ran finished speaking, Cen's mother glanced at him with a smile. After they washed the dishes, the table was full of ingredients waiting to be cooked. She asked Cen Ran: "What dishes do you know?"

"It's all fine, but I don't do it very often, and the taste is barely edible." Cen Ran said.

He and Luo Shixu lived together in their senior year of college. When they lived together, he would watch Luo Shixu cook and often help out. Over time, he became a little bit better. He almost burned the kitchen down. Cen Ran didn't lose confidence and tried many times. Afterwards, his cooking skills were incomparable to Luo Shishu's, but he was still able to eat.

Cen's mother said softly: "That's great. I used to be afraid that you would never have a meal outside. When I was a child, I didn't pay attention to three meals a day, and I didn't care about other things when I was doing problems. Now I feel relieved."

"You always worry about this for me."

"Yeah, I'm worried about your partner. You're going to be exhausted at the stall." Cen's mother joked with him, and then said, "Now I'm worried about other things. When I was shopping for vegetables today, your father and I met Aunt Li. , guess what she told me?"

When Cen Ran heard the words Aunt Li, his whole body stiffened. A few years ago, he was almost annoyed. When he wanted to introduce the little girl to Cen Ran, he first mentioned her daughter, and then many people he knew, more than his father. Mom still has to worry, for fear that Cen Ran will die alone.

At that time, Cen Ran also casually said that even if you die alone, it is no big deal, not only marriage can make people happy and fulfilled.

Later, Auntie Li retorted for 10 minutes, telling him the importance of marriage and how interesting children are. Today's young people are following the trend, and it is too late to regret it at the age of 30.

Cen Ran didn't want to refute. Being single or not is his own idea, and it has nothing to do with the trend. He and her parents politely faced Aunt Li's persuasion, and then Cen Ran looked at her and made a detour.

"Say, what did you say..." Cen Ran asked.

Aunt Li's daughter is three years older than Cen Ran. She was worried about her daughter at first, and regarded Cen Ran as the best son-in-law. She didn't know what happened these years.

"Xiao Li has brought her boyfriend to meet her parents these few days." Cen's mother said, "Your father and I congratulated her, we chatted a little longer, and then we talked about you again. Think about how many people are staring at you ? Want to be a matchmaker."

"Ugh."

Cen Ran was a little embarrassed. Although he was not very old, it was time for him to fall in love. His parents never embarrassed him at the dinner table, but after hearing about the neighbors in the neighborhood, he must also be eager to meet his partner as soon as possible. Don't worry, even if we can't see each other, a little discussion is fine.

What pair of parents don't want to know more about their son?They are considerate, but I have given them so long to cover up and hesitate to speak.

"A few days ago, I met someone who said that his little girl is also a graduate student in Weidu. She is about the same age and can play the piano. I can get to know you. Oh, my mother really likes children who can play the piano, elegant and elegant. Cen's mother recalled that when she bent her eyes, there would be several lines at the end of her eyes, "but I refused."

"Thank you mom." Cen Ran said.

Cen's mother was not in a hurry to cook, so she went to fetch a few oranges, Cen Ran took them knowingly, peeled off the skins and planned to squeeze the juice for the old people to drink later.

"Don't thank me in a hurry. When are you going to let us meet your partner? It's so well hidden, so people can't see it." Cen's mother said, "Mom and Dad have prepared the red envelope for a long time, so they won't let us give it out?"

Cen Ran also wanted to say that he was a long-term relationship partner, and maybe the two of us would not be able to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau for a while, but Cen's mother said that it would be too redundant to cautiously probe for this.

Under her mother's loving gaze, Cen Ran nodded with a sore nose.

He conceived how to speak when he saw Luo Mu, which was his biggest headache every year, and he often thought of various plans, but before he could implement them, he died because of Luo Mu's indifference.

There is no occasion that makes him more annoyed about his lack of emotional intelligence. He hopes that he can be like Gu Xun, who is noisy and makes others feel better, or Luo Shixu, who is polite and not unfamiliar, and behaves appropriately no matter how you look at it. to perfection.

This cannot be taught, and memorizing scripts cannot hold up the opportunities to adapt to changes.He wanted to please Luo Mu, but he was unable to please Luo Mu.

Sleeping on the bed depressed at night, he thought, no wonder Luomu, how much he had impacted her in his third year of high school, puppy love was originally wrong behavior in the eyes of adults, and he still kissed Luo Shixu in front of Luomu, at his home, Parents are outside and haven't held back the youthful impulse, it's really dead, this image is so frivolous and frivolous.

The first 17 years didn't get any better. He was Luo Shixu's follower. Apart from better grades, he had nothing to recommend him. He ran to Luo's house all day long. He touched the piano that she said could not be played by outsiders. His character is not as lively as those children jumping up and down in the alleys.

[Cen Ran]: Are you asleep?

[Brother]: Just woke up.

[Cen Ran]: It's just after twelve o'clock, are you going to sleep later?

[Brother]: I'll pick you up at seven o'clock, and we'll take wedding photos for Yang Chao.

Yang Chao’s wedding photos were mainly taken on the island, and the rest were taken locally, because the best man team was really busy, and there were not enough people in the previous days.

[Cen Ran]: I have dark circles under my eyes.

[Brother]: Isn't this unable to cover Yang Chao's limelight?I thought about it, maybe the two of us have to be mosaiced from head to toe.

[Cen Ran]: My mother secretly wanted me to bring the object back to show her. I thought about it and felt that the object she was clearly referring to you.

Cen Ran thought that his Chinese reading comprehension was not bad, but he was very cautious in the topic of meeting his parents, for fear of making a mistake.

Parents were not enlightened in this regard. What they have to do is not to make people correct it like popular science, but to change themselves to be acceptable, or to become a special case.

He was only moved by Luo Shixu and fell in love, and the two of them didn't have any doubts in the process. He expressed his heart and soon got together. All these worries that he should savor carefully were put on hold and put here. critical moment.

[Brother]: I have to get rid of the jet lag, put on a mask later, and knock on your door tomorrow with breakfast.

Cen Ran chuckled, and changed into a comfortable posture on the bed.

The background setting of the chat between him and Luo Shixu is a photo of the two of them in the snow. Their foreign exchanges were at the same university. It happened to be snowing heavily. The two of them built a huge snowman and drew a smiling face on it. He raised his mobile phone in front of people and took a jerky selfie, the picture was a bit blurry but he smiled brightly.

[Cen Ran]: Luo Gong went on a business trip for half a month, and he was still running around when he came back. Let's be the best man tomorrow with peace of mind.

[Brother]: I really want to be the groom someday.

Cen Ran let out a heavy breath. Chatting with Luo Shixu made him relax a lot. After saying good night to each other, he stopped talking. It is said that taking wedding photos is a physical job. Cen Ran was tired last time and had a high fever for a long time.

In the third year of high school, he ran 5000 meters and developed a fever. He participated in a mathematical modeling competition in college and worked hard for three days. He was working on a thesis before. Shi Shou was sent directly to the hospital, but also had a fever.

After such a fright, Luo Shixu thought that his physique was poor, and he was very strict about his diet and routine. Cen Ran once said that he felt that Luo Shixu was raising a child. Luo Shixu smiled and said, "Yes, this child is at most five years old. .”

He blinked in the dark, and every time Luo Shixu waited at the door of the laboratory in a suit and overcoat, it was as if he was welcoming his lover's groom, his appearance couldn't be more handsome.

·

"Photographer, can you make a mosaic for these two people from head to toe?" Yang Chao pointed at Luo Shixu and Cen Ran, "Yes, just these two, why are they so handsome today?"

The photographer smiled while hugging the DSLR, and said, "Why do you need two handsome guys to be the best man?"

"They're all brothers." Yang Chao said, "If you don't come, you will regret it for the rest of your life. Let's set it off, but it's best to put a mosaic on it, lest they make them look ugly, and the one with long legs will beat me up."

"It doesn't look like he can beat people." The bride muttered.

"You don't know, we used to fight with the seventh class, he was so fierce that he could pick a few, and beat people to cry." Yang Chao waved his hand.

They almost finished filming, the weather was fine, Gu Xun and Yang Yue started to fight each other again, Yang Chao and the bride whispered a few words, the bride glanced at him, raised her chin slightly, her eyes were full of support and enthusiasm Encouraged, Yang Chao walked over to Luo Shixu.

"Sister-in-law is beautiful." Luo Shixu said.

"Yes." Cen Ran agreed.

Yang Chao didn't have a fate with this girl in high school, and met again in the club in college. According to Gu Xun's report, it was like a thunder and lightning, and they got together with sparks and lightning all the way.

Yang Chao said: "You see the light is so good now, and you are so eye-catching, and it's hard for you to play supporting roles..."

"I seem to hear a bit sour in the second half of the sentence."

"Come on, if I'm sour, I'll become a lemon in high school." Yang Chao clicked his tongue, "Don't interrupt, I want to ask how many photos you guys take?"

Cen Ran was startled, and said, "Us?"

"Didn't you guys not take wedding photos? Ran Ran is so thin-skinned, how could she be willing to be stared at for a day." Yang Chao chuckled, lowered his voice and said to Cen Ran, "But I know you definitely want a photo."

"Actually, there are more serious group photos." Cen Ran was already embarrassed, "I received an award from my college with him when we were in college."

But the group photo when receiving the award couldn't compare to this one. Cen Ran's eyes wandered, and Luo Shixu held his hand. Luo Shixu said, "It's your honor, let's take a few photos."

"Yang Chao, what are you talking about?" Gu Xun shouted from a distance.

"It's none of your shitty business, go play." Yang Chao also shouted at him.

Gu Xun said, "It's really boring for you to reject aliens", and then saw the cameraman come to take pictures of Luo Shixu and Cen Ran, as expected, he gave Yang Chao a thumbs up.

The cameraman said that they could be models because of their photos. Yang Yue said beside him, "He is a high-spirited person, and he doesn't rely on his appearance for a living."

At first, Cen Ran was a bit restrained facing the camera, but after being teased by Luo Shixu, his expression was very natural. The two of them didn't put on too awkward poses. Later, they only had to adjust the color, and sent it to their mailbox that night.

Cen Ran said he didn't care, and downloaded the photos immediately. He looked at the screen in a daze, and a call came on his phone.

The moment he saw the contacts displayed, he thought he was hallucinating, his fingers slid across the screen, and his fingertips trembled a little. He didn't know whether it was more shock or bewilderment.

He said: "Auntie, good evening."
