Red Dust and Sand Sculpture

Consolation words are of little use, Li Xiangfu is worrying about his livelihood, and he can only express that he is with him spiritually.

At this time, Li Shasha could already foresee the future... standing shoulder to shoulder with a group of little carrots, shaking her head and learning pinyin.

"I want to skip a grade." He said calmly.

Li Xiangfu had no objection, and said: "Just don't dance too hard."

With permission, Li Shasha turned around and was about to leave.

The next moment, a light voice arrived at the door before him: "With the halo of a genius child, in order to expand the group's popularity, you will have a place in the company's top management in the future."

Li Shasha faltered suddenly, and gave up her plan to go to university tomorrow.

It was pitch black, and after the lights were turned off, the inside and outside of the house showed an ink color.

Li Xiangfu was lying on the bed, his sleeping position was very regular.

He is not used to sleeping with the air conditioner on, and the summer nights are sultry. In his sleep, he strenuously walked in a desert, and was finally awakened by thirst.

His lips were very dry, Li Xiangfu subconsciously pursed his lips when he opened his eyes, and groped on the bedside table with his long arms, only to find that there was no water in the cup.

The corridor was quiet, and at the end was Li Xichun's room, with a warm light source leaking from the crack in the door.

Li Xiangfu guessed that she was still worried about her boyfriend, and the relationship for many years could not be relieved in a short while.

As soon as the cool water enters the throat, you will feel instantly refreshed.

When he went to bed, his sleepiness subsided a lot, he tilted his head, and it took him a long time to fall asleep again.

Li Xichun didn't close her eyes almost all night, and was relieved to see the day, as if sleeping was a difficult task for her.Lying on the bed tossing and turning, I always felt that something was wrong. Looking at the watch, it was already past 07:30.

With disheveled hair, he sat up suddenly, dizzy for a while, and after a while, Li Xichun rushed straight to Li Xiangfu's room with bare feet.

Bang bang bang.

The knock on the door was extremely loud.

After the door opened, Li Xiangfu's eyes were sleepy: "Morning, what's the matter?"

Li Xichun asked quietly: "Why don't you play the piano today?"

The real culprit was to develop a biological clock for himself, and he began to sleep in happily.

Li Xiangfu raised his phone and showed the text message he received a few minutes ago: "Someone asked me out this morning."

"Liu Yu?" Seeing the sender, Li Xichun showed disgust on his brows: "Why are you still friends with him?"

Liu Yu was also one of the members who instigated Li Xiangfu to fight for his family property back then. At that time, he was not particularly bright. Luo An knew how to secretly find the media to ferment public opinion, but he jumped up and down like a leech. The old man warned Luo An, but he ignored Liu Yu. Yu.

Li Xiangfu: "Not long ago, someone took me to buy a guqin. Liu Yu has changed a lot."

After a while, he said again: "I haven't been out much since I got back, it's good if someone is willing to treat me."

The second half of the sentence is the key point.

Li Xichun stared at him for a few seconds, but finally did not stop him.

……

There are not many pedestrians on the street on weekdays.

The meeting place was at a newly opened coffee shop, and Liu Yu was full of praise for it in the text message.

Li Xiangfu didn't take it seriously, thinking that there were elements of exaggeration, but he admitted that there are indeed many merits. The decoration is light and luxurious, and the colors are cleverly used. At a glance, there are only two words in his mind: clean!

Liu Yu went one step ahead of him, saw the person coming from a distance, and found that the person was walking calmly and gracefully.

...It is simply a realistic portrayal of the value of fathers and sons.

After thinking about it, as the person approached, Liu Yu quickly put on a polite smile and waved: "Here."

Li Xiangfu looked around when he opened the chair. There were still many vacancies. The current seat is near the bathroom, so it is definitely not the best option.

Liu Yu seemed to see what he was thinking, and smiled mysteriously: "It's better to be concealed enough."

Li Xiangfu didn't quite understand at first, but after sitting down and talking for a while, Liu Yu suddenly looked at another place and raised his eyebrows suggestively.

Li Xiangfu followed him, his eyes changed slightly, and among the two guests who had just entered the door, he was very familiar with one of them.

Mr. Li was talking with a foreigner, who had gray temples, a pair of glasses, and a gentle temperament that did not match his physique.

"That is Dr. Norton." Liu Yu: "You should have heard of it abroad."

Li Xiangfu nodded.

Norton is a relatively well-known doctor of psychology in recent years, especially the book he wrote last year was successfully released and gained a large number of fans.

Meeting with a doctor of psychology is a very private matter. Liu Yu guessed that Li Xiangfu didn't know about it beforehand, so he said: "I bought coffee these two days, and I can see them talking about things."

Li Xiangfu withdrew his gaze: "I invite you."

Implying willingness to accept this favor.

Liu Yu smiled. Last time, because his impression of Li Xiangfu was still four years ago, he came to visit forcefully, which was unavoidably annoying.

It's better to be able to maintain the plastic camaraderie these days than to be lukewarm all the time.

Both sides have changed a lot in the past four years. Liu Yu is not as noisy as before, and said wittily: "I still have something to do. I will make an appointment next time."

Li Xiangfu nodded, but didn't get up, and kept his eyes on the diagonally opposite side after he left.

In the few days when Aunt Zhang was away, the old man said he was going to a resort, but now he is meeting with a psychological master in the urban area. There must be a problem.

The distance is too far, it is impossible to hear the communication between the two sides.

Li Xiangfu finished his cup of coffee quietly, then stood up without warning and walked over there.

"dad."

Mr. Li was looking down at something when he heard the sound and frowned.

At this time, he and Dr. Norton had almost talked, and finally said a few words, and Dr. Norton left first.

Li Xiangfu naturally sat in Dr. Norton's original position.

They were speechless, and for about half a minute, Mr. Li pushed the documents in front of him.

From the first page, Li Xiangfu's expression became serious.

This is a complete report, the object of analysis is not the old man himself, but Li Xichun.

According to Mr. Li's dictation, Dr. Norton tried his best to analyze Li Xichun's character.The second half transitions to the feasibility analysis, and formulates a detailed conversation between father and daughter.

Although the purpose of writing on the paper was communication, Li Xiangfu could feel that the focus of the report was on how to persuade them to break up.

After reading them one by one, there was a loud noise when closing the document. Li Xiangfu disagreed and said, "Humans are not machines."

Mr. Li crossed his hands on the table, and his image of a strong parent has not changed over the years: "Her mother and I have met Gao Xun. They are not suitable, and sooner or later they will become a bitter couple."

"That's not the problem." Li Xiangfu tapped his finger on the report.

The plan given in the information is quite specific, such as deliberately speaking for the man to agree with machismo, so as to make the woman feel disgusted, and at the same time use the rebellious psychology to introduce a person with a different personality at the right time, and then verbally demote this person to nothing.

"It's about respect."

For anyone, knowing how to be analyzed as a sample and calculated by close relatives to break up, the psychological feeling is absolutely indescribable.

It's a pity that Mr. Li has always been stubborn and only looks at the result.

"It's nothing more than verbal persuasion," he said unmoved, "The difference is that it uses a more efficient method."

Li Xiangfu said seriously: "You are secretly changing concepts."

"Wrong, I should have done this a long time ago," Mr. Li's eyes suddenly changed: "I wouldn't let your sister waste so many years in vain."

After a while, he said again: "It just so happens that she is staying at home these few days, you go and find out, if you can persuade her, then let it go."

Chat broke up.

Li Xiangfu sat for a while to check out and left, sitting in the car lost in thought.

Gao Xun was blocked, but it was just a way for Li Xichun to vent his distress. He knew very well that they would contact again soon and enter into a new wave of entanglement. As for the outcome, no one can predict whether it will be good or bad.

When he got home, Li Xichun didn't go to the gallery, but lay on the sofa rubbing his brows.

"Are you worrying about your relationship?"

Li Xichun forced a smile.

Li Xiangfu was silent for a while, then walked over and asked, "Is that why you like Gao Xun so much?"

Li Xichun's expression was a little bit confused: "After so many years of relationship, I know the root of it anyway, if I don't marry him, I don't even know who I will marry."

"Why do you have to marry?"

Li Xichun joked, "Could it be that you will end up alone?"

Li Xiangfu couldn't empathize, so he didn't speak out.

Li Xichun's nails sank into the soft sofa cushion: "It's one thing to know something in your heart, but another thing to put it into practice."

Observing her unnatural expression for a moment when she spoke, Li Xiangfu frowned.

"Actually, I'm just afraid. As I grow older, there is an indescribable panic..."

She didn't know exactly what she was panicking about.

"If you're just afraid of loneliness," Li Shasha, who had been sitting on the carpet and reading in silence, suddenly raised her head: "I can visit you during the holidays, and I can also take care of you when you are in bed for a long time."

Li Xichun didn't speak.

Li Shasha: "The premise of marriage is love, not marriage itself."

Li Xichun laughed and said: "You are a child, where do you have so many reasons?"

Li Shasha lied without changing his face: "Father said it."

Li Xiangfu has already gone to the kitchen now, skillfully cooking a piece of fish. The sliced ​​fish is as thin as a cicada's wing, and put it on the ginger slices to remove the fishy smell.

Looking at his back, for a moment Li Xichun even forgot how uneasy his younger brother used to be, and couldn't help wondering what changed him?Have you found the lifestyle you want?

Until the eve of Mr. Li's return, Li Xichun had been thinking about this problem, unconsciously clenched his lips, almost oozing blood.

……

After spending a lot of money to consult with Dr. Norton, Mr. Li already has a complete plan to persuade his daughter to break up.After entering the door, he sorted out his thoughts and was about to take the first step in the plan, but Li Xichun took the initiative to say, "Dad, I figured it out."

Mr. Li was stunned for a moment, and then his expression softened: "Just think about it."

Looking back at his former self, Li Xichun suddenly felt a little funny: "I shouldn't regard marriage as a task that must be completed. The younger brother is right, the premise of marriage is to love each other, not marriage itself."

At this moment, Mr. Li felt ominous.

Li Xichun's smile returned to its usual radiance: "Dad, I won't get married in this life, let's do whatever happens."

"..."

After a brief silence passed, an extremely depressing voice sounded in the villa, and Mr. Li roared in a deep voice:

"Li-xiang-fu! Get out of here!"

upstairs.

Li Xiangfu was gently wiping the dust on the guqin, his voice startled the sparrows on the treetops outside the house to fly away, his hand trembled, and his fingertips were almost cut by the strings.

The author has something to say:

Li Xiangfu: Why is it so difficult to live a stable life?
