A charming and dangerous character

Qiu Chuyi didn't mention to Cheng Ye that his parents came to him last night.

At that time, Cheng Ye's mother spoke vaguely, and she didn't fully reveal her intention of coming, but she was taken away by Cheng Ye's father, but Qiu Chuyi always vaguely felt that there seemed to be some unnecessary misunderstanding between the couple.

So the next day, Cheng Ye's parents warmly invited Qiu Chuyi and Qiu Chuchu, who were guests, to go to the opposite door for breakfast. Even Qiu Chuchu, who was just a child, noticed the strange atmosphere among the adults.

Uncle Cheng's mother probably didn't sleep well last night, her blue and black eyes were bloodshot, and her face looked tired as if she hadn't closed her eyes for a long time.

But she still cheered up and prepared a rich northern traditional breakfast for the Qiu family's father and daughter:

Soymilk and milk are served in delicate glasses, two plates of appetizing and refreshing stir-fried vegetables are placed in the center of the table, and golden fried dough sticks and fried dumplings are placed in the basket next to it, and there are even a few white flowers Next to each seat is a bowl of salty tofu topped with a layer of black fungus egg meat sauce marinade-in short, this full table looks like thick oil sauce red, full of color, fragrance and taste.

But when she saw their father and daughter entering the room, the smile on Cui Xiuli's mouth couldn't help but stagnate, it seemed more like a formatted professional smirk.

"Come here, Xiaoqiu."

Cui Xiuli warmly greeted Qiu Chuyi, but her eyes couldn't help but glance at the little girl beside him, and her smile froze a bit: "By the way, I don't know your daughter's name yet? "

She stared at Qiu Chuchu, and couldn't hear any specific meaning in her tone, but said kindly: "This little girl is so beautiful, just by looking at her nose and eyes, you can tell that you can do whatever you want."

"Chuchu, come and say hello to grandpa and grandma." Qiu Chuyi gently stroked his daughter's head, he saw the child's appearance which was not very similar to his own, and raised his hand to raise the naughty lock of hair on the child's head Soothe it down.

Qiu Chuchu responded, and called in Cui Xiuli's direction sweetly: "Good morning, grandpa and grandma, my name is Qiu Chuchu."

The lively and lovely little girl intentionally showed her honey-like sweet smile to the adults, but this innocent smile failed to win the love of strangers as quickly as in the past, and fell into the eyes of Cheng Ye's mother. It has become an existence like a hot potato.

Even Qiu Chuchu found that when Cui Xiuli heard her call grandma, the smile on the corner of Uncle Cheng's mother's mouth seemed to freeze there, as if she was afraid of her-this discovery subverted Qiu Chuchu's cognition, and also Let this little girl who has always been "invincible" in front of adults with her sweet and lovely face feel very frustrated.

The little girl tightly squeezed her father's generous palm, and looked up with many doubts, as if she wanted to find an answer from her father that she was suddenly unpopular.

But Qiu Chuyi just shook Qiu Chuchu's little hand back tightly. There was no special expression on his handsome face, just a polite smile on the corner of his mouth as always, as if he didn't notice the silence and embarrassment among the crowd It spread silently.

"...Let's eat first."

Cheng Ye's father suddenly spoke, and immediately broke the embarrassing situation among everyone.Everyone seemed to have received some kind of signal, either with a look of relief or a look of strange doubts, and sat down at the dining table together.

The expression on Qiu Chuyi's face has always been considered normal, as if he didn't see the weird behavior of Cheng Ye's mother towards Qiu Chuchu just now - of course, it is entirely possible that it is because he doesn't care much about these things.

Fortunately, everyone enjoyed this sumptuous breakfast.

Qiu Chuchu was naturally the first to put down the bowls and chopsticks in her hands, and she thanked Cheng Ye's parents very politely. Now, Ms. Cui Xiuli's expression softened a lot compared to before.

However, if you look closely at the expression in the little girl's eyes, you will find that she is only out of politeness, and she didn't care about it when she said it.

The child's stomach is small, and she is used to the delicacies from various countries that her father tried to make for her. These superficially rich "home-cooked dishes" are not very attractive to her.

However, the rest of the people also stopped their own meals one after another, leaving only Cheng Ye who has been busy on the road recently and probably didn't have a good rest yesterday. That is, gobble it up.

Originally Cheng Ye's mother, Cui Xiuli, should be very pleased to see her son cheering her on and eating her own dishes, but today she didn't know what happened. Seeing that the Qiu family's father and daughter had put down the tableware in their hands, she also stretched out her hand suddenly, Accidentally took a picture of his son who was still working hard.

She said: "Okay, Yezi, don't eat it yet, there will be other dishes for lunch later." Regardless of her son's surprised eyes, Ms. Cui snatched Cheng Ye's dinner plate away, and then called her husband to clean up with her.

Seeing that the Qiu family's father and daughter seemed to get up to help clean up, Cui Xiuli hurriedly stopped them: "It's not heavy work just for this dish, Xiaoqiu, you are a guest, you should take the children back to rest first, I was tired all day yesterday .”

But then she stopped Cheng Ye, who wanted to leave with Qiu Chuyi and the others, and shouted at him: "Yezi, you go back later. You stay and help your father and us to do some work before leaving." .”

Cheng Ye:? ? ?

Obviously he was the one who drove the car all day yesterday, right?Why not let him go back to rest?

But Cheng Ye was also full of doubts at the moment, so he simply stayed and wanted to see what Ms. Cui wanted to do.

This morning, his mother's behavior and expression were very strange, she was not as outgoing and cheerful as usual, and he couldn't help but start to wonder in his heart—could Ms. Cui's menopause be delayed again?

As soon as Qiu Chuyi left with her daughter and closed the door, Ms. Cui's expression changed immediately.

The corners of her mouth that were still smiling suddenly drooped, she first sighed but then stood up straight again, and her tone became more serious: "Yezi, your dad and I already know about the things between you two. .”

Just when Cheng Ye wondered what his parents knew, and even wondered whether they knew Qiu Chuyi's true identity, he heard Ms. Cui say: "Since Xiao Qiu has come, then you can rest assured when you come. Both your father and I can accept psychological work—”

But soon Ms. Cui changed the subject again, and said firmly: "But the big ones can be kept, but the small ones are definitely not allowed!"

"Ah?" Cheng Ye asked in confusion.

Now Monk Zhang Er was puzzled, and asked wonderingly, "Mom, what are you talking about there? Why didn't I understand anything at all, I was completely confused."

He began to wonder in his heart: Did Qiu Chuchu offend these two?

But thinking about it again, it shouldn't be possible.That little girl only met her parents twice yesterday, and she went back to sleep directly after dinner last night, so she didn't have a chance to get in touch with her parents again?

Then why is Ms. Cui's attitude towards this little girl so decisive and merciless?

"Stupid child, mom did this all because of you!" Ms. Cui stretched out her fingers and nodded Cheng Ye's head hard, the back molars seemed to be clenched tightly, with a look of hatred "How can I give birth to a child?" You prodigal son".

"You have to know that the child has a real mother! It is said that blood is thicker than water, but she and her mother are still connected with broken bones! If the child grows up in the future, tell me, can she have a real mother?" How much sincerity toward you?"

These words made Cheng Ye even more confused - no, it doesn't matter whether Qiu Chuchu is with him or not, and whether he has a mother or not?

No, it has nothing to do with Cheng Ye's parents!

At this time, Cheng Ye's father, who had always been silent, finally spoke.

He blocked Cheng Ye's mother's movements, and there was a deep wrinkle between Cheng Ye's brows, which were three to four points similar to Cheng Ye's, and he had begun to show an old look.This father, who seldom took care of his son because of work, seldom sighed—maybe his wife's cries from last night were still ringing in his ears.

Cheng Jiang explained to his son succinctly: "Yezi, originally who you want to marry or what the person is like, we as parents should not interfere with these matters-but since your mother and I have respected your choice Partner, regardless of gender, I hope that you should listen to my advice and your mother’s advice on some important matters. You are still young and have never had children. I don’t know that grown-up children are not familiar with you. ..."

While Cheng Jiang was talking, Cui Xiuli couldn't help but raised her sleeves and wiped away her tears.

Cheng Ye had listened to his father finally speak, and forced himself to listen seriously for a while, but the more he listened, the more he felt that his father's topic was going wrong?

——Why did he suddenly mention his marriage partner, and it has nothing to do with gender, as if he was told not to raise children for others?

Only then did Cheng Ye realize the real purpose of his parents calling him to talk.

He suddenly remembered that when he was still in City S yesterday morning, he seemed to have told his mother not to urge the marriage, and lied that he had already found a "friend"-it turned out that his parents mistook Qiu Chuyi for his "friend"!

Thinking of this, Cheng Ye couldn't laugh or cry.

Although Cheng Ye wished that Qiu Chuyi had such a relationship with himself, but the situation is complicated now, Qiu Chuyi is still wanted by the police, it is not a good time to talk about love at all.And if Cheng Jiang, a retired policeman, knew that there was a fugitive suspect hiding in his home, he would probably be so angry that he would have a heart attack on the spot.

He had no choice but to "explain" briefly with his parents, saying that Qiu Chuyi was just an ordinary friend who had just returned from abroad and came back to D City to visit his relatives by the way.

When the old couple heard what their son said, the boulder that had been stuck in their hearts suddenly fell to the ground. They suddenly felt that there was still hope in life, and they thanked God and Amitabha chose to believe without carefully thinking about the relationship in what their son said.

After Cheng Ye came out from his parents' house and returned to his own house, he found that there seemed to be a person standing on the balcony. Judging by his height and shape, he should be Qiu Chuyi, but Qiu Chuchu didn't seem to be in the living room at this time.

So, Cheng Ye took the initiative to talk to him.

He opened the sliding door on the balcony, walked in and said, "Don't you ask me why my parents left me just now?".

And Qiu Chuyi, who was standing by the window and looking out, heard someone coming uninvited, but turned around and gave Cheng Ye an indifferent look, making it hard to tell what his gaze meant.

Then he opened his mouth quietly, looked out of the window again, and said, "It's snowing."

It was only then that Cheng Ye noticed that a layer of indistinct frost crystals had formed on the window, and looking at the sky outside, it seemed that there were indeed some small snowflakes that were not too dense.

The first snow falls slowly on the roof of the building, on the top of the tree or on the heads of passers-by. It may be that the temperature is not low enough. They are melted almost immediately when they come into contact with things, and they disappear without sight before Qiu Chuyi and Cheng Ye’s eyes. without a trace.

Qiu Chuyi listened to the beginning of Cheng Ye's question and answer just now, pretending to cooperate and asked: "What? What did your parents tell you just now?"

Cheng Ye looked at Qiu Chuyi's non-curious eyes, heard his carelessness, and said "cut" at first, but still couldn't help complaining to him: "Isn't it because you brought a child and killed my parents? It's all irritating. They just think that you are not as handsome as I am, and you have children in the end, so they keep asking me why I am not married."

Feeling good about himself, he raised his bangs there, pretending to save the world and said: "Hey, there is no way, as a handsome B, sometimes you have to bear this kind of incomprehensible 'pain'~"

Qiu Chuyi was amused by Cheng Ye's insincere narcissistic words, and Cheng Ye is indeed the most "thick-skinned" in the D City Branch Bureau. I was very happy, and laughed heartlessly.

"Then why don't you ask me why I haven't been married?" The two smiled and Cheng Ye asked again suddenly.

But his eyes were fixed on Qiu Chuyi for a moment, which made Qiu Chuyi inexplicably feel that there seemed to be some strange atmosphere between the two of them.

Qiu Chuyi didn't answer the words easily, because he had already vaguely guessed the meaning behind Cheng Ye's words, so he only turned his gaze out of the window again, but the hand that had been tightly held by others couldn't help but feel in the dark. trembling.

But he remained calm on the surface, silently watching those snowflakes float towards the seemingly colorful world like newborns—however, what they finally ushered in was only that silent death.

But Cheng Ye obviously didn't care whether Qiu Chuyi talked to him or not, there was no way, he was such a talkative character.

Seeing that Qiu Chuyi turned his head, he simply turned his head away, and still said to himself: "Actually, there is no other reason. I have been single for so many years, what else can I do? It just doesn't fit. Yes!"

Speaking of this, Cheng Ye suddenly smiled: "Besides, I'm also waiting for someone."

He looked out of the window at those Chuxue who rushed to die one after another, and suddenly felt that this kind of determination was also a kind of extreme romance before death.

Qiu Chuyi didn't know what kind of induction he had received in the dark, maybe it came from God or from the heart, when he turned his head, he also unexpectedly found that the person beside him turned his eyes back at the same time as him, and he His eyes were looking at himself deeply.

The two former friends just looked at each other quietly and tacitly under the curtain of the first snow outside the window.

It seemed as if the years they had missed had also landed on the ground, melted away by the warmth that hadn't completely disappeared.

"I always thought I'd missed—"

Cheng Ye said with a low voice that only two people could hear, but with a different kind of affection: "But it's okay, I've finally waited for it now."
