sweet kiss bitter summer

On the doctor's suggestion, Liang Luo'an stayed in the hospital for observation for a few days, and Tan Chen accompanied him.

During the hospitalization, Liang Luo'an was never visited by Liang's father and Liang's mother, but he called them, and Liang's mother answered.

Her tone was indifferent, without any disturbance, she just asked about Liang Luoan's physical condition, when he would return to the capital, and if he needed to bring anything, Liang Luoan answered all the questions cautiously, Liang's mother only said "yes", Then without saying anything, they hung up the phone.

But they didn't mention anything about Tan Chen throughout the whole process, so Liang Luo'an didn't know whether his mother was still angry or had acquiesced in his relationship with Tan Chen.

On the morning when he was about to be discharged from the hospital, Tan Chen went out to buy breakfast, and when he returned to Liang Luo'an's ward, he carried an extra brown cloth bag in his hand, which was handed over to him by the nurse at the nurse's station.

Liang Luo'an felt that it looked familiar, so he opened it and looked. Inside the cloth bag were two fresh-keeping boxes, containing braised beef and hand-made fish balls, and a bright red glass jar, filled with round hawthorn fruits, rich in sweet juice, It should be the last crop of red fruit on the hawthorn tree at home.

Liang Luo'an stared at the canned hawthorn she didn't like for a long time, then called her mother and said thank you.

After breakfast, they were discharged from the hospital. They first went back to the hotel where they were traveling to pick up their luggage, then reversed the car and returned to the capital. After arriving, they took a taxi. Tan Chen sent Liang Luo'an downstairs. In order to help carry the luggage, he They also got out of the car together.

Perhaps because it is approaching late autumn, the days are getting shorter, and the sun has begun to sink towards the west around four o'clock in the afternoon.

"Tan Chen."

While waiting for the elevator, Liang Luo'an suddenly asked, "Do you want to stay for dinner?" Liang Luo'an picked up the brown cloth bag his mother gave him, patted the surface with his palm twice, and landed on it. On the fresh-keeping box, there was a very soft muffled sound, and he said with good reason: "Mom gave too much food, I can't finish it by myself, you have to help me solve it."

Liang Luo'an thought that his words must be very convincing, so Tan Chen agreed without hesitation.

But after all, Tan Chen has a younger sister who is good at cooking. It is hard to say whether she will be picky about her taste. Get vaccinated.

"Simple dinner, limited to filling the stomach."

Liang Luo'an, who warmly invited Tan Chen to have dinner just a second ago, said somewhat coldly.

Tan Chen didn't seem to mind, or maybe he understood Liang Luo'an's subtext, and even proposed very kindly: "I know that there is no free lunch in the world, although my level can only guarantee that I won't make trouble, but please tell me I."

"Tan Chen, this is not lunch, it's dinner."

Liang Luoan corrected him.

After bringing Tan Chen into the house, Liang Luo'an took the lead in changing his shoes, put the bag in the kitchen, and opened the refrigerator door very anxiously.

Although Tan Chen's expectations have been lowered earlier, this is the first time Tan Chen has eaten at his home since he came back. Out of hospitality etiquette, Liang Luo'an didn't want to make it too shabby, so he prepared to urgently brainstorm the dinner menu .

It's a pity, because Liang Luo'an is not a person who lives alone with a very delicate life, and there is only eggs and yogurt in the refrigerator that has not been filled with ingredients for a long time, as well as the half pot of lemonade that has not been finished. On the surface of some turbid water, the edges have been swollen and whitish.

He secretly thought that it was not good, and walked out of the kitchen resentfully, and found that Tan Chen was still standing at the door, with his leather shoes on the floor mat, which seemed a little cramped.

Tan Chen pursed his lips, looking a little pitiful and said to Liang Luoan: "I didn't find any slippers, do I want to come in barefoot?" "Ah!" Liang Luoan reflected on his carelessness, so he could only explain : "No one else has been to the house, so there is only a pair of slippers."

For some reason, Tan Chen's pursed lips suddenly curled up, looking very happy.

"What's wrong?" Liang Luo'an was puzzled.

"It's nothing."

Tan Chen stepped on his leather shoes on the spot and said, "Otherwise, I'd still be barefoot."

"...Wait a minute!" Liang Luo'an rolled his eyes, took off the slippers on his feet, changed into his own sneakers, stood next to Tan Chen, and said to him, "Go out and buy."

Tan Chen looked at him with some amusement: "I thought you were going to give me your slippers."

"Do not.

I think it's better to buy a pair. "

Liang Luo'an naturally speculated: "What if you come here often in the future? Don't wear mine all the time."

There is a daily necessities supermarket downstairs in the community unit, and slippers can be bought, but Liang Luoan insists on walking a long way to a large supermarket outside the community.

Tan Chen didn't understand at first, but Liang Luoan insisted, so he had no choice but to follow him, but after Liang Luoan walked into the supermarket and pushed the shopping cart into the food area, Tan Chen seemed to realize something.

"Choose ingredients for a simple dinner?" Tan Chen smiled and looked around pretendingly, "Your refrigerator is so big."

Liang Luo'an glanced at Tan Chen, felt that there was something in his words, but he couldn't understand, so he ignored him, picked up a small bundle of packaged carrots, and turned to Tan Chen: "Tan Chen, your The taste hasn't changed yet, right? Do you still like this kind of carrot?" Tan Chen looked at the carrot in Liang Luoan's hand and frowned slightly, "It's better not to take it, it's too much, and you don't like it either."

"Oh."

Liang Luo'an obediently put the carrots back on the shelf, pushed the shopping cart and walked forward quickly, muttering in a low voice: "Didn't you say you like carrots before, then forget it."

Tan Chen looked at his somewhat stubborn back, and said in a very light tone: "It's not because I like carrots, it's because I like you."

Because Tan Chen's voice was too low, he didn't intend to tell Liang Luoan to hear it, so Liang Luoan continued to walk forward, as if he really didn't hear it, stopped in front of another shelf, pointed at some Fungus turned around and asked Tan Chen, "What about these? Do you want to buy some?" Before Tan Chen could answer, Liang Luo'an began to carefully select the items on the shelves, full of interest, and looked like a newlywed wife who was a virtuous housekeeper.

"Don't stand there watching, you don't even say what you want to eat, I don't know whether to buy it or not."

Liang Luo'an said to Tan Chen who was standing there in a daze with some displeasure.

Tan Chen's gaze was fixed on Liang Luo'an for a long time, like a ray of tough gossamer, pulling his heart with very little force, and soon made him approach Liang Luo'an again.

Liang Luoan's unhappiness came and went quickly, but after that, Tan Chen was very active and took the initiative to put some ingredients in the shopping cart, which relieved Liang Luoan's difficulty in choosing to a certain extent .

After returning home, Tan Chen sorted the ingredients he bought into Liang Luoan's refrigerator. illusion.

In the end, they ate hot pot, which was convenient and there was no room for major mistakes. Liang Luo'an was very satisfied with Tan Chen's proposal.

Tan Chen conscientiously fulfilled the promise of "just order" and arranged everything in order, as if he was afraid that if he didn't do enough, the domineering master Liang Luo'an would deprive him of his right to have enough food.

Of course not.

Green leaves and fresh vegetables, fat beef and sheep, and miscellaneous pills were all on the table. The dining table in Liang Luo'an's house was not big, and the dinner looked extraordinarily rich in contrast.

But in the end they forgot to buy slippers. In order to help tidy up as soon as possible, Tan Chen had no choice but to step on the floor wearing white socks.

While eating, Liang Luo'an accidentally dropped his chopsticks on the ground, and when he leaned over to pick them up, he happened to see a gray mark on the bottom of Tan Chen's socks.

"What are you laughing at?" Tan Chen asked.

Liang Luoan said honestly: "My land has stained your socks."

However, his attitude was very good, and he said: "I will pay you a new pair."

Tan Chen didn't comment at first, smiled, and then told Liang Luo'an: "There are still slippers, next time I'll come and get them together."
