It has been raining intermittently for half a month, and the air still has the fragrance of the rain. The weather is rare, and the street has woken up from the gloom of the previous few days.

Hearing the commotion outside, Sheng Lin poured Xi Hezhou a glass of water. Xi Hezhou took the glass and thanked him, but he didn't drink it. He just put the glass on the table in front of him. place.

There is a lot of traffic outside, and there is awkward silence inside the house.

The atmosphere was a bit delicate. Sheng Lin was a little at a loss in the face of this situation. He didn't expect Xi Hezhou to come to his door. It had been half a month since the incident had passed, and no one had mentioned it. He thought it was over. How could he know? As soon as he was about to go out today, Xi Hezhou blocked the door.

The matter started half a month ago. At that time, Sheng Lin had just resigned from the research institute and was preparing to go home with his things. The glands in the back of his neck suddenly tingled. He knew that his estrus had arrived. His estrus It's never allowed, and this time it came unexpectedly.

From Xi Hezhou's mouth, Sheng Lin knew that he fainted on the side of the road, and it was still raining, and was carried home by Xi Hezhou. Xi Hezhou didn't say that Sheng Lin also knew about the later things. The pheromone released by omega during estrus has an For the fatal attraction, Xi Hezhou can't control it and can't blame others.

The next day Sheng Lin woke up on Xi Hezhou's bed, looking at the mess in front of him, he was at a loss, he had followed the rules for more than 20 years, never thought that such a situation would happen today, before Xi Hezhou woke up, Sheng Lin was so frightened Run away.

After returning home, Sheng Lin checked the marks on his body carefully, and he was relieved when he found that he had not been marked. At that time, he thought, it was an affair, and he would never see him again anyway.

In the next half month, the alliance changed its president, and a certain military officer retired, which aroused some discussions in the society. All these matters that are very important to the alliance have nothing to do with Sheng Lin, and his life is still peaceful There is not a trace of water splash.

He resigned from his original research institute and needed to find another job to support himself, but it was not smooth. Sheng Lin traveled to different places every day, which also made Sheng Lin gradually forget the one night of spring breeze between himself and that strange alpha. .

But he really didn't expect that half a month later, that person would come to the door directly, bring a ring and flowers, and say that he would marry him.

Why, does Yanyu still have this kind of after-sales service?

Xi Hezhou sat in a relaxed but upright posture, which seemed to be a long-term habit, but Sheng Lin seemed a lot more lazy.

"I want to say sorry to you first." Xi Hezhou seemed to have really thought for a long time, because he was not sure whether the solution was suitable, his voice was a little tentative, "It has already happened, and my family is also urging me Marriage, after much deliberation, I decided to come to you."

"Looking for me?" Sheng Lin realized something, "Are you going to marry me?"

He actually didn't understand the logical relationship in it. He slept with Xi Hezhou, Xi Hezhou's family urged him to get married, and Xi Hezhou wanted to marry him. What kind of logical closed loop is there between these three things?

"I'll give you time to think about it, and I won't force you, but as far as I know, your father has been looking for a blind date for you. Instead of sitting at a table with some strangers you don't like at all, why don't you choose me? . "

After all, Xi Hezhou is young, promising, handsome and rich.

Xi Hezhou put the flowers and business cards on the table, keeping a comfortable distance from Sheng Lin, and he kept the flowers.

As soon as Xi Hezhou left, Sheng Lin received a call from his father. He didn't want to answer it very much, it was just about asking him to go on a blind date, but the phone rang urgently like a reminder, so he had no choice but to answer it.

"Stinky boy, why are you only answering the phone now!" His father's voice was so loud that it was harsh even through the screen of the phone, Sheng Lin took the phone away, "There is an alpha who is interested in you, I will meet you tomorrow, I think it's okay Settling down, an omega is messing around outside every day, and wants to work in the research institute like an alpha, and in the end it's not a handyman, so it's better to find an alpha earlier, so as to save people from worrying."

My father doesn't like omega, and always feels that omega is someone else's in the end, and he can't get any benefits. The year when Sheng Lin split into omega, the relationship between father and son, which was originally not good, took a turn for the worse. Sheng Lin is only 25 this year, no matter what It won't be to the point where he will die alone, but his father has already started to urge him to go on a blind date, wishing to drive him out as soon as possible.

"understood."

Hang up the phone perfunctorily, and immediately received the information of the blind date sent by his father on the mobile phone. The photo does not look like a good person, and even looks a little wretched. He is ten years older than Sheng Lin. The only advantage is that this alpha rich.

Sure enough, as long as you have money, it doesn't matter whether it is suitable or not.

Sheng Lin suddenly thought of something, and looked at the vibrant yellow rose and bellflower on the table. If he really wants to get married, he must choose this person himself.

Compared with this so-called blind date partner, Xi Hezhou is much better, and also meets his father's so-called requirements.

Sheng Lin pressed the business card left by Xi Hezhou to dial the number, took his clothes and prepared to chase after him, but the next second he heard the phone ringing at the door, Sheng Lin opened the door, he was a little surprised, Xi Hezhou didn't leave at all, he was still leaning against the door side, holding the phone.

"Xi Hezhou!" Sheng Lin looked at Xi Hezhou, shaking the ID in his hand, "Let's go get married."

……

When the staff of the Civil Affairs Bureau handed over the marriage certificate to Sheng Lin, Sheng Lin was still in a daze.

Although he personally agreed to Xi Hezhou, he was really angry and irrational at the time. Although the matter is a foregone conclusion, he still needs time to digest it.

The marriage certificate was held in his hand, and the touch of the skin reminded Sheng Lin that he and Xi Hezhou would be legally married in the future.

While Sheng Lin was in a daze, Xi Hezhou took the marriage certificate from Sheng Lin's hand and put it in his coat pocket. Sheng Lin turned his head to look at Xi Hezhou with a silly expression.

"My mother wants to see you."

"Uh-huh?"

Sheng Lin turned his head to look at Xi Hezhou in surprise. He and Xi Hezhou had no relationship foundation at all. If they were asked how they met, what would he say.

"Don't worry, it's just a meal." Xi Hezhou put his hand on the back of Sheng Lin's neck.

Sheng Lin was not used to such intimate actions, so he took a step to the side and avoided it.

Ever since he was a child, Sheng Lin was not very good at getting along with adults. Later, he became divided, and his father didn't like to take him around with his relatives, and even less had contact with his elders.

And he didn't know how to deal with the parents' inquiries in the future given the situation of him and Xi Hezhou.

Sheng Lin stood at the door of Xi Hezhou's house with uneasiness.

Xi Hezhou lives in the same place as Sheng Lin imagined, a single-family villa, but it is far away from the city. Standing at the door, Sheng Lin is nervous and doesn't know where to put his hands.

"Put the ring on."

Xi Hezhou took Sheng Lin's hand and put the ring on Sheng Lin's hand.

The ring was so plain that there was only one band, without any decoration, pattern, or inlay.

"Don't be nervous later, my mother is very talkative."

No wonder you're not nervous!

Sheng Lin hadn't done a good job of building up his heart, so the door was opened from the inside. The aunt of Xi Hezhou's family opened the door. Seeing that it wasn't Xi Hezhou's mother, Sheng Lin was relieved.

"mom."

Sheng Lin was taken aback for a moment, and then saw Xi Hezhou's mother, Jiang Rou, standing behind her aunt. She was wearing a soft and comfortable long skirt, her hair was loosely tied behind her head, and she had a gentle smile on her face. She should have been raised since she was a child. It is her temperament that makes her still charming even in her old age.

"Hey, this is Lin Lin!" Jiang Rou smiled, looking very happy, she grabbed Sheng Lin's wrist and brought Sheng Lin into the house, "Oh, why are you so thin?"

Sheng Lin's wrist bones are very thin, and he doesn't have much flesh. Now that he is being held by someone, he sighs like that again, and only later does he realize whether he is hurting someone else.

He wanted to pull his hand out, but Jiang Rou didn't let go, just sighed: "Hezhou said before that you are not in good health, look at this thin one, it's no wonder that you are in good health, you need to eat more later, and take care of your body return."

Sheng Lin responded, and pulled out his hand without showing any traces, a little cautious, he actually wanted to gain weight, but he seldom had a good meal, and his former colleagues occasionally had physical contact with him, and would mention his bone pain people.

"Where are my sister and my dad?"

"Luyu is in the kitchen. Your father has an impromptu meeting, so he probably won't be able to come back tonight." After Jiang Rou finished speaking, she looked at Sheng Lin who was in a daze, "I'm sorry, Lin Lin, his father's meeting in Hezhou is indeed very important. , there is no way to come back, don't mind."

"Ah? It's okay, I'm fine..."

Based on Xi Hezhou's little habits, Sheng Lin guessed that his father must be a very serious person, and it's fine if he's not around, but he just doesn't know how to face his parents, so one less person would be better.

Sheng Lin was still choked up when it came to addressing Jiang Rou. He looked at Xi Hezhou with a hint of grievance and helplessness in his eyes.

Called "Mom"?

Sheng Lin was a bit speechless. Although he was married to Xi Hezhou, it was his first contact with Xi Hezhou's family. In addition, he was not very good at getting along with the elders, so it was somewhat awkward to call him mother right now.

"We didn't even hold the wedding, and we didn't even pay for the change of mouth. How could Lin Lin be called mother, so let's call him aunt first."

Instead of forcing Sheng Lin, Jiang Rou gave Sheng Lin a step, making Sheng Lin less embarrassed.

"Help me in the kitchen, Lin Lin and I will chat for a while."

Xi Hezhou also left, leaving only Jiang Rou and Sheng Lin in the living room.

"Lin Lin, I want to apologize to you on Hezhou's behalf, I have wronged you for the hasty receipt of the certificate."

I didn't expect Jiang Rou to apologize to him because of this, now Sheng Lin really panicked, and when he panicked, he couldn't speak anymore.

"I will let Hezhou hold the wedding as soon as possible, and make up for everything you need. Just treat this place as your own home, and we will be a family from now on."

Jiang Rou didn't make any urging, just talked to Sheng Lin gently, Sheng Lin could feel that Jiang Rou was a gentle person.

In the days before, the family always got together less often and left more, such a warm scene where someone was sitting on the sofa chatting, someone was cooking in the kitchen, brightly lit, lively and lively, I can’t remember if it happened after a long time .

"Auntie, thank you."

It seems that this marriage is not too bad.
