The next day, when Lu Yan went downstairs to Li Yuting's studio, her assistant came down to pick him up.The other party knew him and chatted with him with a smile.After leading him in, the assistant said, "I'm putting on makeup for Teacher Meng and taking a video. I might have to wait on the sidelines."

Lu Yan agreed, opened the door and walked in without making a sound, pulled a chair and sat on the side with his assistant to watch.

Meng Tunan was obviously very reluctant, and when he saw Lu Yan coming, he winked to express his dissatisfaction.

Li Yuting teased while transforming, and said to the camera: "In the future, let Mr. Meng wear makeup to write and engrave, and then let the platform move him to the beauty anchor. I think he will be out of the circle in a week."

"...Do you think you are very humorous?"

Lu Yan took a closer look, although he didn't quite understand what was on his face, but after looking at it, it looked pretty good...

As soon as Lu Yan came to Meng Tunan, he began to twitch. Before, he chatted with Li Yuting gags, but now it stopped, and he sat down and let people play with him.In fact, he was putting wax on himself in his heart, feeling that he would be laughed at for a long time, and he regretted that he agreed to let Li Xiaoyuan take this picture.

After Li Yuting finished showing his makeup, he turned off the device and said it was ok, Meng Tunan immediately asked to remove his makeup, but Li Yuting gave him a sharp reprimand, saying that it took him a long time to put on makeup.

Seeing his aggrieved look, Lu Yan was amused, and agreed: "It's pretty nice."

Fortunately, he has a good foundation, his face is soft, and there is no sense of disobedience when he melts it.

Meng Tunan became angry with embarrassment: "You still see my joke!"

"It's really not bad, I feel that the facial features are more three-dimensional." Lu Yan even looked closer, "You can just go out to eat like this."

"……do not laugh!"

Lu Yan lowered his head and looked at him at the same level: "I didn't laugh at you, it's pretty."

He spoke softly, with a very gentle tone.

Smelling his breath, Meng Tunan's waist softened, and he immediately turned into a man thinking with his lower body and rushed forward to kiss him.

Lu Yan cooperatively helped him to sit on the dressing table and kissed him, biting his tongue gently...Meng Tunan soon fell into a state of confusion and fascination, and his legs were crossed up.

When it was almost over, Li Yu stopped and knocked on the door: "I've changed my clothes... come out quickly, let's go eat."

After making a fuss and then coming out, the makeup that Li Yuting worked so hard to put on him was also a little mottled, so he had to remove it.

After going to the mall, they managed to buy a diamond-encrusted cross, and they found a western restaurant for lunch.Li Yuting probably couldn't bear the sour smell of love between these two people, so he hurried away with his bag after eating.

Seeing her step by step like a queen when she left, Meng Tunan sighed, "This woman is really remarkable."

Lu Yan nodded: "Indeed."

"How did you come up with the idea of ​​becoming a beauty blogger... I didn't dare to ask her."

Lu Yan hesitated for a while before saying, "Maybe it has something to do with me."

"……what?"

"She didn't find a job very well when she just graduated. She may have suffered from her looks. She was depressed for a while and was also confused... I think she has a little low self-esteem and can't get out." Lu Yan recalled, " I didn't know how to comfort her, so I went to the mall and bought some cosmetics for her... I didn't know how to choose, it was all randomly chosen. Then..."

Later, a mistake led to the transformation of a girl.

After hearing this, Meng Tunan was filled with jealousy: "You must have something to do with her."

Lu Yan thought for a while, "I always feel that I owe her something... Don't you feel that way? Her mother died when she was in the third year of high school. It is very difficult to go out alone to this day. Sometimes I feel that I also have Responsibility, if that year..."

"Okay." Meng Tunan quickly interrupted him, "I believe you are innocent."

In fact, Meng Tunan also always felt this way - as if he owed her something, otherwise he would not have allowed that woman to put makeup on his face.

Lu Yan glanced at him: "Suspicious all day long, she obviously liked you, so don't beat me up."

Meng Tunan raised his eyebrows: "So what! Anyway, you haven't given me much!"

"You chased me twice, why did I give you something?"

"You didn't buy it for me even when we were together."

"...to buy you cosmetics?"

"Ha ha."

"I used to help you pass the math and get into college. Isn't that a gift? You should kowtow to me."

"That doesn't count!" Meng Tunan looked unhappy, "It seems that I paid by mistake, and I paid for nothing!"

Lu Yan glanced at him, then silently took out a card from his wallet and handed it over: "...Buy it yourself, don't let me buy it."

Meng Tunan was dumbfounded for a while, a little flattered, and took a look after taking it: "Is this the legendary salary card?"

Lu Yan nodded: "Take it to the housekeeper."

"...Where's the password?"

"The day before my birthday."

Meng Tu Nan said desperately: "Is it difficult for you to just say it's my birthday?"

"If you don't, just pay me back."

"I really don't want it. I barely earn enough to support you and my family." Mengtunan said back to him, "Keep it as a small treasury."

After dinner, they went back to Lu Yan's house.Meng Tunan was actually a little apprehensive in his heart, and always felt that his appearance was a bit embarrassing, but Lu Yan looked indifferent, saying that it didn't matter, and we would always meet.

The location is an old neighborhood, and the house has been around for a few years, so it looks very old from the outside.Going upstairs and entering the door, Meng Tunan found that Lu Yan's house was very clean and bright, not like a house in the old community at all.

Lu Yan actually said: "My mother lives now... Maybe it's a bit messy. I probably cleaned it up when I came back yesterday."

...it's a bit messy.

"Your mother lives alone?"

"Yes." Lu Yan nodded, and brought him a pair of slippers, "She came back after my grandparents passed away, and I also persuaded her to go to T City, but she said she wanted to stay here alone."

They chatted in the room for a while, before Meng Tunan finished exploring Lu Yan's room, Xie Lin came back with a large bouquet of white roses.

Meng Tunan thought that Xie Lin must have taken preservatives... There was no change at all, her face was white and tender, and no wrinkles could be seen.Meng Tunan saw that she was calm and stable, with an indescribable aura...it was completely different from the screaming and crying woman in his guest room before.

She should have dressed up specially today, wearing a simple cheongsam, no jewelry, and clean nails... She is so beautiful, just looking at it is very pleasing to the eye.

"Nan Nan is here." She walked over with a smile, "Long time no see."

Meng Tunan nodded quickly and began to flatter: "Yeah, long time no see. Auntie, you are really beautiful with flowers for your heart and snow for your skin!"

Xie Lin hugged the flower and smiled: "You seem to be taller than before."

Lu Yan took the flowers in her hand, feeling that Meng Tunan got along well with her and didn't need to worry about it, so he turned around and went to the kitchen to arrange flowers in a vase.

Meng Tunan was dragged by Xie Lin for a chat, and heard her talk about her plan to become a nun abroad, saying that she wanted to learn to paint and serve the gods at the same time...

After chatting for a while, he handed over the gift. Xie Lin accepted it and seemed to like it very much. He took out a "Bible" from his bag and handed it to Montunan, saying, "It's specially prepared for you."

She asked about Meng Tunan's recent situation, and chatted with him affectionately.Lu Yanshi wandered out to pick up something from time to time, and did not participate in their conversation.

Xie Lin looked at Lu Yan's back from a distance, and asked Meng Tunan in a low voice: "Nannan, are the clothes he is wearing yours or did you buy them?"

Lu Yan wore a handsome dress that Xie Lin had never seen before today, it was a little strange.

"I bought it." Meng Tunan was a little embarrassed, "Isn't it pretty?"

"It looks good, buy him more clothes." Xie Lin began to complain, "I don't know how to spend it on myself after earning so much money... I don't know if it's because I'm lazy or I don't want to buy it. This is exactly the same as his father, obviously He doesn't look bad, and his clothes are so casual, he won't listen to you."

Meng Tunan nodded wildly in agreement: "That's how he is, he won't listen to what he says!"

The two hit it off and talked for a while together.

Not long after the door rang again, Meng Tunan hurriedly stood up to open the door, and saw Xie Yu who hadn't seen him for many years.

He was wearing a very formal black suit, and his face was as cold as in memory.After seeing Meng Tunan, he just frowned slightly, ignored Meng Tunan's "Uncle", and went straight into the door.

Xie Lin saw it, and glanced at Xie Yu: "Boss Xie is so arrogant, I pretended not to hear you when I called you."

Xie Yu remained expressionless, and said, "If I knew this day would come, I shouldn't have sent your son to Dingyan in the first place."

Mengtunan: "..."

"You're almost done." Xie Lin said, "I tried my best to take Yanyan away, but they are not together anymore, are you angry?"

"What's wrong with me?" Xie Yu smiled, "Anyway, it's not my son who will suffer from rolling eyes, questioning, and gossip in the future."

Meng Tunan was very embarrassed when he heard it, and wanted to run away.

Lu Yan said to him from a distance in the kitchen: "Meng Tunan, ignore him."

Xie Lin echoed: "Yes, ignore him."

Xie Yu sneered: "Anyway, the villain is me, I shouldn't help you manage him, I should let your son do what he wants to do when he is young and ignorant..."

"You're so old, why don't you care about it? Don't look for trouble to make people look bad." Xie Lin snorted, "Don't make trouble for me today."

"I'm not free to take care of it, and my own children can't take care of it."

Xie Lin glared at him: "Don't worry about it, little Xingxing is only a few years old, and she has been thinking about this and that all day long, and she really came to the house as the boss..."

... The family's speaking style made Meng Tunan very embarrassed throughout the whole process. He was sandwiched between Xie Lin and Xie Yu, neither standing nor sitting, feeling that it was inappropriate to say anything, so Meng Tunan turned silently and slipped into the kitchen By the sink, helping Lu Yan arrange flowers.

After holding back for a while, Meng Tunan tugged on Lu Yan's clothes: "If I had known this was the case, I wouldn't have come... See how much your uncle hates me."

"It's not that I brought you to meet him, but to meet my parents." Lu Yanman didn't care, "He's just like that, no one likes him, so don't worry about him."

I thought that only the family would come, but in the afternoon, two middle-aged men came to visit. They still carried some ingredients in their hands. After greeting Xie Lin familiarly, they rushed to the kitchen.

Meng Tunan looked at them for a while, and felt that these people had very different temperaments. There was an indescribable masculinity, and they were very upright and tough.

After Lu Yan finished talking with them, he took the time to come over and explain to him: "They are my dad's colleagues, and they are all policemen... there should be two or three that haven't arrived yet. These uncles will come here every year on this day to give my mother Cook a meal, and talk and drink with my dad."

Mengtunan was a little surprised: "Every year?"

"Well, even my mother will come back on this day during the years when she went abroad. They should have an agreement."

So long.Meng Tunan sighed: "Your father must be a very good person, otherwise it would be impossible for friends to remember him for so many years."

"Yeah." Lu Yan nodded, "I even thought he was omnipotent when I was young."

Meng Tunan still hesitated: "Is it appropriate for me to appear on this occasion? Maybe your father won't like me either."

"Whether you like it or not is another matter. We should see each other." Lu Yan said, "Just be with me. Every time I participate in this activity, I feel very uncomfortable."

That scene was probably pretty sad.Meng Tunan was puzzled: "Why do you continue to do things that are uncomfortable for everyone?"

"Probably because... we need some sustenance."

"you need to?"

"Of course, otherwise why come."

Meng Tunan sighed.

"Is it just cooking and eating? No worship or anything?"

"No, keep it simple."

When the last meal was ready, another person came to the house, wearing a police uniform, probably rushing over after work.Meng Tunan glanced at the shoulder flowers on the man's shoulders, and he couldn't help but think that he seemed to be an official... Such a style, even a glance would make him feel sharp.

When the man saw Xie Lin, he stepped forward and called slowly, "Sister-in-law."

Xie Lin nodded, and asked him casually, "Why hasn't Xiao Shen come yet? Where's Chen Bin?"

The man and the others looked at each other, and the man continued to answer: "Sister-in-law, Chen Bin has no time this year and has a task. Xiao Shen... Xiao Shen can't come."

"Xiao Shen also has a mission?"

The man said, "Xiao Shen won't be able to come here anymore."

Shailene was dumbfounded.

She seemed a little dazed, looking at the dishes on the table, and when she spoke again, her tone sounded like she was about to cry.

"At the beginning, there were six people, and then there were fewer and fewer. This year, there are only a few of you... Otherwise, don't come next year. I look sad."

The one in the police uniform sighed and said, "We can't say it every year. This year is the last year, but..."

At this time, Lu Yan went to Xie Lin's room and took out a very old police uniform, and put it on the chair in the middle.

He backed away slowly.As soon as it was put down, the people on the table got up one after another and stood up straight.

Meng Tunan quickly followed suit, and Lu Yan pulled him back a bit.

Then, he saw the three men salute neatly to the seat where the police uniform was placed, with solemn expressions.

Xie Lin looked at the police uniform with dazed eyes, as if she was in a trance, remembering something.

At that moment, Meng Tunan suddenly sympathized with their sadness.

He looked at the police uniform from afar, while silently mourning, and quietly, he squeezed Lu Yan's hand tightly behind the crowd.
