Mr. Jiang's little trick

Cheng Mu never thought that Jiang Lin's "embarrassment" would refer to this kind of thing.

At this moment, he was cooking a dish of sauerkraut fish, Liu Ma was helping him, and Jiang Lin was standing aside, watching his skillful cooking movements, showing a rare look of surprise.

Well, he underestimated the ability of this little coward. It seems that making a meal is not enough to stump him.

Mama Liu washed the dishes, and the thick white fish soup on the fire already exuded a tangy aroma, she praised: "My little classmate is so good at cooking at such a young age, I am ashamed of myself as an old woman, young master's Friends are really good."

Cheng Mu pressed the fish with a spoon, and without being modest, he smiled generously: "Of course my cooking skills are not as good as yours, Aunt Liu, but they are not bad, especially the soup I cook, my mother praised it as delicious , someday I will give you and Jiang Linlu a hand."

When he said this, he turned his head and blinked at Jiang Lin, the smile on his face was bright and showing off.

Jiang Lin shrugged helplessly and didn't say anything. Liu's mother started to talk to Cheng Mu, she joked: "Little classmate is so sensible and capable, your parents must be reluctant to let you come to someone else's house." Distressed."

"That's not true. My mother was away on a business trip and asked me to take good care of Jiang Lin, otherwise she would beat me up when she came back. As for my father..." Speaking of his father, Cheng Mu's eyes flashed a trace of loneliness, but he was quickly laughed at. He intended to replace it, and his tone was very relaxed, "If my dad is still alive, he must have personally sent me here. After all, our family motto is to be a responsible person, hahaha..."

As soon as these words came out, Liu Ma and Jiang Lin were stunned at the same time. So Cheng Mu is a child of a single-parent family. No wonder he learned to cook at such a young age. Some growth is not necessarily voluntary, but forced.

Jiang Lin is fine, after all, he is used to cold faces, even if he is shocked in his heart, his face will not show too much, but Mama Liu is different, she is a kind-hearted person, she is old, and after hearing what happened to Cheng Mu He also imagined his lonely and miserable appearance in his childhood, and the sympathy and pity in his expression couldn't be hidden at all.

"Little classmate, I'm sorry, I shouldn't bring up these sad things..."

Cheng Mu was probably used to seeing such scenes since he was a child, so he quickly smiled and comforted him: "Aunt Liu, you don't have to feel guilty, and you don't have to pity me. Although my father left early, don't you think I'm living a good life now? , other children have, my mother has never given me less, in fact, I am very lucky, so there is no need to sympathize with me."

Mama Liu wiped her tears, nodded and sighed: "Little classmate is really a good and sensible boy..."

Jiang Lin looked at the old and the young comforting each other. He couldn't tell what the expression was on his face. His dark pupils were like the deep sea where the sun couldn't shine, hiding emotions that people could never fathom.

At this moment, his mobile phone on the sofa in the living room rang. He woke up and walked out slowly to answer the phone.

A cold and careless female voice came from the phone: "I heard from Mama Liu that you accidentally broke your arm, is it okay?"

Jiang Lin's eyes fell on the decayed lilies in the vase, and he said in a flat tone, "No problem, it will be cured after a few months of cultivation."

He heard a cracking sound from over there, as if someone had pressed a lighter, and sure enough, a few seconds later there was a soft sigh of a woman exhaling smoke.

Jiang Lin was very familiar with these voices. When he was very young, his mother often smoked in front of him without any scruples. The brown curly hair and the blurred face in the smoke seemed to be his deepest impression of his mother.

"You didn't want to let you come abroad with us back then. Mama Liu is old, how many years can she take care of you?"

As soon as the woman finished speaking, there was a knock on the door, as if someone was urging her to do something. She cursed and her tone became a little impatient.

"Xiaolin, think about it for yourself. If you are willing to go abroad after graduating from high school, it doesn't matter if you come to my place or to your father's place."

"Okay, I'm going to work, you have a good rest."

As soon as Jiang Lin finished saying "um", her mother hung up the phone impatiently.

Being treated so indifferently by his biological mother, Jiang Lin's heart was still peaceful. He put down his phone, and the expression on his face remained unchanged from the beginning to the end.

Jiang Lin was already used to it. To his parents, he was nothing more than a child with a common bloodline and a bond connecting the two families of Jiang Lin. In fact, one can tell from his name.

Jiang from the Jiang family and Lin from the Lin family didn't choose this name because their parents loved each other, but just because it was convenient and representative.

Parents go abroad not only for work, but also to escape the shackles of this emotionless marriage and let the other party let themselves live more freely.

Jiang Lin lives for profit, and has never felt the warmth of a family, but he doesn't blame his parents, at least in material terms, they have never owed him, right?

Born in a wealthy family, he has had the best food and clothing since he was a child, and his parents will not control and restrain him. As long as he wants, he can make troubles in various ways, and someone will take care of him anyway.

Moreover, although the parents had no feelings, they did not have any illegitimate children outside. Once they passed away, both companies would be his. As long as he did not commit any crimes, he would have nothing to worry about in his life.

Compared with those children who were born in poverty, ate every meal, and carried the family's hope all their lives, he was undoubtedly extremely lucky.

So, what reason does he have to complain?

His whole life has been planned, when and which step to take, as long as he follows the steps, the future will always be unimpeded, bright and promising.

But sometimes he always feels that he still wants something, and he doesn't know what he wants.

Cheng Mu and Liu Ma's laughter came from the kitchen, Jiang Lin turned to look, Cheng Mu was facing him, with a smile as bright as the sun on his handsome face.

Jiang Lin's cold heart suddenly warmed up, but only for a moment, so fast that he didn't even notice it.

At this time, he just thought: With this guy around, this period of time probably won't be boring.
