Man is such a creature, sometimes I really can't tell.

Their growth does not seem to be linear, but staged.A state can be maintained for a long time, and then when it encounters some catalyst, it jumps up with a "click" like a high jump.Sometimes you think they are childish ghosts, but after a while, they suddenly become mature and modest gentlemen.

Right now, Levi has encountered another catalyst on the road to growth.

He has a daughter.

Le Wei is now also starting a company as the boss, so he is naturally more motivated than he was six years ago.But his daughter gave him something that a successful career could not give him. Looking at his daughter's carefree back, he instantly felt the reality of being a father.

This sense of substance is not clear. If he has to explain it, Le Wei thinks, it probably means that he knows that he will no longer be childish, nor can he evade his responsibilities. Instead, he must work harder and never let his daughter down.Even if my daughter wants the stars in the sky, I have to overcome all difficulties and pick them off and give them to her.

Use stars as headbands to tie on the daughter's braids, the daughter will definitely be cuter.

The two strolled into the cold drink shop, and the blonde waitress Donna greeted Sophie immediately, saying hello to Sophie very familiarly: "Hey Sophie, long time no see. Oh, your hairstyle today is very unique."

Sophie proudly tossed her pigtails—they were still high and low, swaying as she walked—and smiled reservedly: "I designed it myself."

Donna gave a doting smile, leading the two to sit down at the table, and glanced at Levi and Sophie in turn: "What do you want?"

"Strawberry smoothie!" Sophie didn't even think about it.

Donna wrote it down in the order book and asked, "Do you need anything else?"

Levi flipped through the menu and asked Sophie, "Want some donuts?"

Sophie thought for a while before saying cautiously, "Just one."

Levi ordered a chocolate donut, and then ordered a cup of iced tea for himself.

Donna responded, confirmed that there would be no more additions, and then returned to the front desk.The seat designed for adults is too high for Sophie. Just now she climbed up the seat one leg at a time like a little animal, which turned Le Weimeng over. Now she is supporting her body with her hands, wearing a white The swaying of the stocking's legs made Levi want to hug him immediately.

It's nice to have a daughter.

Xia Chu wanted a daughter before.He has suffered from a special constitution for many years, so he naturally hopes that he can have a daughter to end the continuation of this pain.Le Wei doesn't care about men and women. If Xia Chu wants a daughter, he thinks her daughter is also very good.At that time they bought a lot of clothes for their unborn children, both men and women, mostly girls.Xia Chu also chose a nickname for the child in advance - "manman", which means a complete life and happiness.

In Xia Chu's life, he has experienced far more pain than happiness.He hoped that his daughter would no longer be like himself, who was always knocked down when she was about to reap happiness.

Thinking of this, Le Wei looked at Sophie in front of him: "Sophie, do you have a Chinese name?"

"No." Sophie was a little confused when asked.Her name is SophieXia, why do I need a Chinese name?

Xia Chu said that the child's nickname is chosen by himself, and the first name is left to Le Wei to worry about.At that time, Le Wei felt that the responsibility was heavy, so he specially bought a "Modern Chinese Dictionary", and even called home for help.His mother had a big heart and advised him not to worry, but his father snatched the phone and told him in a very serious tone, this is a big deal, let yourself think about it carefully.

But later, they lost the chance to name their child after all.

Le Wei once thought that he would never have the chance to name his child. Fortunately, God finally gave this opportunity back.

"Sophie, do you have a nickname? It's in Chinese." Le Wei asked again, looking at the girl in front of him with a smile.

The question Le Wei asked was so strange, Sophie was always wary of him, and tried to be cautious in every word she said to him.But she thought, ask the name, it should be okay?

After all, he already knew his name was Sophie.

So Sophie nodded: "Yes."

"Let me guess what it's called..." Le Wei said intentionally, then watched Sophie's eyes gradually round and brighten, and finally caught him by surprise, "Your nickname is Man Man, right?"

Sophie's expression became extremely complicated for a moment.

Le Wei shrugged: "I didn't lie to you, did I? I'm really your father's friend."

Compared with children of the same age, Sophie is indeed smarter and more mature.She has always been on guard against Le Wei, but deliberately confuses Le Wei with a sweet smile.She thought Le Wei couldn't see it, but she was a child after all, how could Le Wei be deceived by her?

It's just that Le Wei still thinks a little simpler.

He thought that Sophie lied to him just to eat strawberry smoothie, but in fact, people thought he was a slut, trying his best to eliminate harm for the people.

Le Wei looked at Sophie and asked softly, "How have you and your father been doing well for so many years?"

Sophie was completely fooled by Le Wei. She wasn't sure whether the person in front of her was a friend of her father's or a skilled gangster, so she stared at him subconsciously and guardedly, without answering.

"Did Dad take you alone, did you suffer a lot?" Le Wei asked again with a softer tone.

Sophie still didn't answer.

The strawberry smoothie came, and Donna added a big scoop of strawberry jam to Sophie's portion. In addition, she sent a plate of homemade cookies.

"To your new friend." Donna laughed.

Just as Le Wei was about to thank him, Sophie said sharply, "He's not my friend!"

Donna was a little dazed, and turned to Levi.Le Wei realized something, and smiled dryly at the waitress.

Donna left with deep doubts, leaving the father and daughter at the table.

Too impatient, Le Wei reflected in his heart, he wanted to get closer to his daughter too quickly, so he didn't choose the right way.

Le Wei sighed as he watched the other side eating smoothies and being wary of his children from time to time.

"You don't know me, it's normal. I haven't seen your father for six years." Le Wei said, "We met in China. He is a noble person in my career and a person in my life..."

Le Wei didn't know how to describe it, Xia Chu's gentle side face emerged in his heart, and he couldn't help smiling: "For me, your father is a very important person."

"Sophie," Levi looked into the girl's eyes, "I've missed your dad a lot these years."

So you're really daddy's friend?

Sophie was really confused.

This person's smile at the beginning was too flattering, no matter how you look at it, it seems that he has no good intentions. Sophie was very sure that he was a bad person, but the expression and tone of his words were so sincere that little girl Sophie couldn't help but believe it.

In fact, she had a strange feeling for this man.Rationally, she reminded herself to beware of him, but emotionally, she had an instinctive trust and dependence on this man.

What to do? The clever Sophie thought of a good way.

"Do you know Dad's favorite color?" Sophie asked.

test?

Le Wei smiled confidently: "White."

After three seconds, he hesitated to change his words: "Black?"

After another three seconds, he narrowed his eyes: "Could it be... gray?"

Three seconds later, Sophie picked up the donut and took a bite.

Le Wei looked at the chocolate shavings that fell on the table, and thought without confidence: Isn’t Xia Chu’s favorite color black, white and gray? Otherwise, how can he explain his frigid home decoration style?

Halfway through a donut, Sophie asked a second question: "Do you know who is Dad's favorite movie director?"

Le Wei suddenly had the feeling of sitting in the college entrance examination room.

After deliberating for a minute, Le Wei tentatively answered an answer that he thought was closest to the truth: "Han Song?"

"Who is that?" Sophie thought for a long time, and suddenly realized, "Is that the uncle with the short beard?"

Han Song did start to grow a beard this year, but...was it taking this long?

Le Wei stayed for a long time, unbelievable: "You don't remember him? He is your father's best friend!"

You even have a photo with him!

But Sophie seemed to have lost her memory, and said to him: "Didn't you say that you are a good friend of Dad?"

Levi suddenly fell silent.

For the last question, Sophie cleared her throat: "You said Dad is very important to you, but do you know who is the most important person to Dad?"

This is the sub-question of the Taoism. Le Wei smiled and rubbed Sophie's head: "It's you, my little princess."

He made the sending sub-question into a sending proposition.

In Western culture, touching the head is a very intimate gesture.Unless the two parties are very familiar with each other, it is not allowed to touch a child's head casually.

And Sophie is full of suspicion and wariness towards Le Wei. Le Wei's seemingly intimate behavior is undoubtedly a very offensive behavior in the eyes of Sophie who grew up in Western culture.

There is no need to continue to verify, Sophie's heart flashed a red light.

She puts her smoothie spoon horizontally on the corner of the table and eats the last bite of the donut.

Le Wei pointed to the cookies on the plate and asked softly, "Do you want to try it?"

Learning from the TV series she had watched, Sophie shook her head in a haughty judge's manner.

"My dad's favorite color is yellow." Ms. Sophie said after staring at Le Wei for a long time, "He doesn't have a favorite director. Dad said that as a producer, he can have a preference, but he can't have one." My favorite. My dad has a lot of friends, but most of them are my dad's colleagues or business partners. But, you are right, my dad loves me the most."

"The teacher said, what you are doing is wrong and violated the law. Although she also said that we should run away immediately when we see people like you, and report to parents, teachers and the police, but as citizens, we should assist the police in arresting you. You are my responsibility."

Sophie is righteous, but Le Wei has no idea what she is talking about.

"What do you mean?" Levi asked.

"It means..." Sophie stood on the chair, with her legs spread apart, one arm on her hip, the other straight out, her index finger pointing directly at the tip of Levi's nose, "You're under arrest, Mr.

In the next second, Le Wei was knocked down by several forces rushing from behind.

After traveling thousands of miles to catch the first flight to the United States, Le Wei never expected that he would be sent to the police station by his own daughter instead of seeing Xia Chu.

Putting the spoon horizontally on the table is a secret alarm method known by local merchants. It is specially used to send information to the merchants when it is inconvenient to call for help, so that the merchants can help to call the police.Donna, the waiter, was suspicious and called the police when Sophie stepped across the spoon.A few minutes later, the police arrived.

No matter how much Le Wei makes excuses, the police only verify the evidence, and while he is trying to clarify for himself, there is also a white policeman with a big belly who warns with a cold face that if he keeps yelling, the police don’t mind using it. Some very means to make him quiet.

Le Wei had no choice but to endure it for the time being.

The internal facilities of the police station are similar to those in Hollywood movies, the difference is that the person locked up by the iron fence is now Le Wei himself.There was also a black man in the same cell, not tall, with tattoos all over his arms and neck.

"I robbed a convenience store, damn it, only got 48 bucks. What about you, man, why are you in here?"

Thinking of Sophie's last accusation, Le Wei became annoyed: "Don't mention it! Everything is a fucking misunderstanding!"

But when will the misunderstanding be resolved?

Le Wei was locked up until very late. He thought he would be locked up forever, and he might even be deported, but the policeman suddenly opened the door of the cell and told him, you can go out.

Le Wei followed the police until he walked to the lobby of the police station and saw Xia Chu.

And there was Sophie, who was following him, looking down and pitiful, who had obviously experienced a violent K.

Xia Chu was signing a document, and the police were very polite to him, and even treated Le Wei a little better.

"Sign here, and then you can go." The policeman pointed to the bottom of the document and said to Levi.

"What's this?" Levi asked.

The policeman looked at Xia Chu, and Xia Chu hurriedly said in Chinese in a low voice: "I told them that everything was just a misunderstanding. Sign this, so as not to leave a criminal record."

Le Wei looked at Xia Chu, and Xia Chu also looked at him.

Le Wei didn't ask any more questions, and obediently signed.

Xia Chu thanked the police, and the three walked out together.

As soon as he went out, Xia Chu stopped.

"Sophie." Xia Chu said coldly.

Sophie immediately bent down and bowed to Le Wei very standardly: "Uncle Le Wei, I'm sorry! It's all my fault, please forgive me!"

Xia Chu also explained to him: "Sophie's school held a lecture on anti-**** today, and she treated you like a****. Sophie has a very rich imagination. I always think this is not a bad thing, so I haven't corrected it. think……"

Xia Chu apologized, "I'm sorry."

The father and daughter apologized to Le Wei together, with such a sincere attitude, and it seemed that Xia Chu tried to save herself, and Le Wei couldn't get angry anymore.

"Forget it." Le Wei said, "It's just a misunderstanding."

It was too late, and it was inconvenient to go back to the hotel at this time, so Xia Chu invited Le Wei to stay at his home for a night.Le Wei was so tired that he didn't get entangled in this issue.Apart from police cars, there was only a silver-gray Infiniti parked on the small parking lot in front of the police station.The three walked to the front of the car, and Sophie hugged Xia Chu's leg coquettishly, and was about to sit in the co-pilot. Xia Chu stared coldly, and said sternly: "Sophie, even if uncle doesn't care about you, you have to review yourself. Do things So reckless, reckless, and clever, did your father teach you? And do you know that uncle's job is very sensitive, if this matter is found out by the media, it will cause uncle a lot of trouble!"

Sophie was scolded again, and her eyes that had finally smiled dimmed immediately.

"I'm sorry, Uncle Levi." Sophie apologized to Levi again.

Le Wei didn't plan to care about it at first, but seeing Sophie so pitiful, the unhappiness disappeared in the end.He even defended his daughter: "It's okay, it's okay, uncle is not angry with you. Xia Chu, she doesn't understand, forget it."

In the light, Xia Chu took a deep look at him, and opened the back seat door.

"Get in the car." Xia Chu said to her daughter.

It took 10 minutes to drive from the police station to Xia Chu's house. Sophie sat on the back seat and became dishonest after a while.With Xia Chu's endorsement, she no longer guards against Le Wei, and the intimacy in the subconscious is revealed. Coupled with the hidden chatterbox attribute, the girl asks Le Wei: "Uncle, what is your occupation?"

Le Wei sat in the passenger seat, looked at the girl in the rearview mirror, and smiled: "Uncle is an actor."

"Then you are my father's colleague?" At some point, Sophie's braid had been tied back, and she asked while tugging at the end of her braid.

Le Wei hesitated for a moment, then said with a dry smile, "Forget it."

"But why didn't my dad ever mention you?"

A simple question made the car instantly quiet.

Le Wei looked at Xia Chu, Xia Chu was holding the steering wheel, and the staggered street lights made his face sometimes bright and sometimes dark.

After a long while, Le Wei wasn't sure if Xia Chu wanted to change the subject, and asked, "Are you hungry? There is a Chinese restaurant in front, which is probably still open. Shall I go buy something for you?"

Le Wei touched his stomach and nodded.

Xia Chu went to buy spring rolls and steamed buns, and packed white rice porridge and shredded pork with green peppers. When she got back to the car, Sophie had already fallen asleep in the back seat of the car.

Le Wei took off his coat and covered Sophie. Xia Chu didn't stop her, but tucked the corner of the coat that Le Wei forgot to cover.

The door of the villa has an automatic sensor, Xia Chu drove to the door, and the door opened automatically.He parked the car in the garage and hugged Sophie in the back seat first.Looking at Xia Chu's movements, Le Wei was surprised that Xia Chu, who has always been strong, has become so gentle.

The food packed for Le Wei was also placed in the back seat of the car. Le Wei took it out and asked Xia Chu in a low voice: "Do you have a bag? I'll take it for you."

Xia Chu replied in a low voice: "There is a boarding box in the trunk, please take it out for me."

They didn't dare to make too much noise for fear of waking up their daughter.

The door lock is still controlled by fingerprints. Xia Chu hugged her daughter and squatted halfway so that her fingers could touch the touch screen.When the door opened, Le Wei also came over.The small boarding case is a bit heavy, and its owner seems to be ready for a long-distance trip. Le Wei couldn't help but ask, "Did you plan to travel far today?"

Xia Chu answered vaguely, the door opened, he pushed the door open with his shoulder, and walked in.

Le Wei followed closely behind: "Sorry, because of me, I made you unable to go."

"What are you apologizing for?" Xia Chu turned her head, glanced at Le Wei with a half-smile, the corners of her lips curled up slightly, "It's obvious that you are the worst."

Levi laughed too.

In fact, when Xia Chu received the call from the police station, he had already checked in and was queuing up to pass the security check.He confirmed with the other end of the phone three times before he finally believed that the person who was arrested was really Le Wei.

Levi is here.

He turned around and rushed back.

After entering Xia Chu's house, Le Wei understood why Sophie said that Xia Chu's favorite color now is not black, white and gray.

This house is very big, with two floors, and the decoration style is completely different from Xia Chu's home in Beijing.The duplex apartment in Beijing perfectly implements the cold style, which looks cold and angular, but this house is decorated with warm colors, which looks warm and cozy.As he walked in, Le Wei saw walls with decorative paintings, green potted plants in the corners, and a slightly messy living room.

Yes, Xia Chu's house is a bit messy now, unlike that apartment in Beijing, which was regularly cleaned by part-time workers. Sophie's toys and books are scattered on the sofa, and there are her graffiti pictures on the carpet.Xia Chu's work documents were placed on the other side of the sofa. Obviously, this father didn't bother to keep things tidy.

Taking a peek at the leopard, Le Wei feels that Xia Chu today is more like a real person full of fireworks than six years ago.

Thinking of this, he casually grabbed the pillow on the sofa.Different cartoon characters were printed on the pillow, and the one he picked up had a bear printed on it, warm yellow.

Xia Chu sent Sophie upstairs first, and Le Wei sat in the dining room to eat.He was really hungry, Xia Chu bought so many, he ate them all.After Xia Chu settled Sophie and went downstairs, there was only an empty packing box on the table, and Le Wei wandered around the stove, looking for something.

Xia Chu knew that he was looking for water, so he opened the refrigerator, took out mineral water from it, and poured him a glass.

Le Wei's drink was not enough, so he drank another.Later, Xia Chu simply gave him the bottle, and he gulped and drank the whole bottle.Xia Chu sat across from him and watched him drink. After drinking, she handed him a tissue to wipe his mouth. He wiped it and threw it into the trash can together with the mineral water bottle.

There are two trash cans in the kitchen, one for recyclable waste and one for non-recyclable waste, Levi hesitated for a moment.

Then Xia Chu said: "I cleaned up the upstairs room for you, follow me up to have a look."

"No rush." ​​Levi said, "Let's talk."

Xia Chu lowered his eyes, already guessing what he was going to say.

Sure enough, Levi asked, "Sophie is my daughter, right?"

Xia Chu didn't intend to deny it, nor could he deny it: "Yes."

"You got pregnant with her in Iceland, didn't you?"

Xia Chu clasped his fingers, and exerted lightly: "Yes."

"Why didn't you tell me?" Le Wei's tone suddenly became angry.

"I also came to the United States later, and I only found out when my belly grew bigger." Xia Chu said.

Xia Chu didn't lie, and because of this, Le Wei was even more angry: "Then why didn't you tell me when you gave birth to Sophie?"

Xia Chu didn't answer right away.

He seemed to have something to hide, and his expression became complicated and tangled.Le Wei looked directly into his eyes, but Xia Chu couldn't immediately respond to Le Wei's gaze. After being silent for a long time in this embarrassment, Xia Chu took a light breath.

"You said that if we survived at that time, it would be better for you to live your life and I to live mine." Xia Chu said, "Your life has finally returned to stability, and I don't want to disturb you anymore."

"I said that I don't want to entangle with you anymore, but you have my child after all!" Le Wei said.

"So I used my child to threaten you not to leave me?" Xia Chu smiled wryly, "I don't want to do this, besides, the situation at the time didn't allow it."

"Why not?" Xia Chu didn't speak clearly, Le Wei asked, but Xia Chu evaded.Forget it, anyway, Le Wei is very upset, and he is upset about many things, such as: "You don't want to disturb my life, but you can disturb Han Song's life with peace of mind?"

Xia Chu froze for a moment: "What?"

Le Wei took out his mobile phone and directly showed Xia Chu his chat records with Han Song.

"Oh." After reading it, Xia Chu sighed helplessly, "You misunderstood. After I came to the United States, I basically had no contact with China, including Han Song. We only met by chance this year. He came to participate in the Golden Globes We only met again at the dinner after the awards ceremony. Since we met, it’s not too much for me to invite him to sit at home, right?”

Le Wei was dubious: "So this photo was taken at that time?"

He clicked on the photo of Han Song and Sophie.

Xia Chu nodded.

"And after that? Did the two of you..."

"Occasionally, I will send a WeChat greeting. I haven't seen each other again." Xia Chu sat up straight, "I made it clear to Han Song six years ago, and he has a new relationship, don't you know?"

He had heard about it, but Han Song hadn't made it public yet, and Le Wei couldn't be sure if it was a rumor or a fact.

However, since their affairs have been turned over long ago, why did Han Song deliberately send photos to stimulate himself? He was showing off secretly, or——wanted to motivate Le Wei to come to the United States to find Xia Chu?

I have to admit that Han Song was quite successful. If it wasn't for seeing this photo, maybe Le Wei wouldn't be so stimulated to come to the United States so soon.

"Well, even if I misunderstood about Han Song, after all, Sophie is my daughter, so I always have the right to know?" Le Wei coughed a few times, and turned the topic back to seriousness, "If I didn't want to ask, Could it be that I didn't even know I had a daughter?"

In fact, Xia Chu never concealed the existence of Sophie, but Le Wei was right, he did not take the initiative to inform Le Wei of this matter.

It's normal for Levi to be angry.

"I'm sorry." Xia Chu said, "It's my fault."

Le Wei has already made preparations for Xia Chu to turn against the general and even be aggressive. After all, he didn't save Xia Chu face at all in his words. With Xia Chu's temper, he would never bow his head even if he made a mistake. How could he not refute himself immediately? Woolen cloth?

However, Xia Chu admitted his mistake very simply and apologized.

Le Wei was stunned for a long time.

"You..." Le Wei laughed angrily, "Have you learned to apologize now?"

"It was originally my fault, I should apologize." Xia Chu said, "I thought about telling you, but many things went wrong, and I'm not sure if you will like this child..."

"Of course I like Sophie! She's so cute!" Levi said.

Xia Chu smiled slightly: "Her personality is like yours."

"I think her personality is like you." Le Wei said seriously, "She also looks like you."

"But her nose is like yours, very straight."

"Of course, our old Lejia's genetics are very strong... cough cough."

The topic is off topic.

After an embarrassing silence for 3 minutes, Xia Chu said: "Le Wei, I know that the apology is very thin, but I should actually make it up..."

"Of course you should compensate me!" Le Wei jumped up.

"How do you want to compensate?" Xia Chu asked.

Good question, I stopped Levi from asking.

Le Wei choked for a long time and coughed three times.

"...Anyway, you want to compensate me. How to compensate, I will talk about it later." Le Wei also knew that he was worthless.

But Xia Chu's attitude is really too kind, and the eyes she looks at are soft, making it hard for anyone to get angry.

Forget it, let's talk about compensation or something.

"I'm tired, didn't you say that you have arranged a room for me?" Le Wei said, "Take me to have a look."

Levi's room is on the second floor.Although it is a guest room, it is spacious and comfortable with complete facilities.He was so tired that he fell asleep as soon as he touched the pillow. He had no dreams all night and slept until the next morning.

Looking at the time, it was a little past six o'clock, and the day and night in China and here were reversed. When Le Wei was asleep, there were some messages and two missed calls, but he didn't hear them all.

Now Le Wei is no less busy than Xia Chu was back then, and his willful running has left many domestic matters behind, requiring him to settle across the ocean.

After leaning against the bedside and dealing with it for an hour, things didn't decrease, but continued.Le Wei had a hunch that if he didn't get up again, he would be able to stay in this position for a whole day, so he got up, washed, walked out of the room, and wanted to see if Xia Chu and the others were awake.

Of course Xia Chu woke up early.

There was noise from the kitchen on the first floor, it sounded like a toaster was working.

Xia Chu is making breakfast.

Xia Chu is a person who likes to sleep very much, but he has never had enough sleep.In his memory, he rarely stays in bed and often gets up early, sometimes even earlier than the alarm clock.He can work on a project until three o'clock in the morning, and after two hours of sleep, he can open his eyes on time at five o'clock and go to the meeting refreshed.And he has lived this kind of life for many, many years, as if it has been wound up, tirelessly.

Tian Xiaomeng admires Xia Chu very much, and always pokes Le Wei's nose to teach him to learn more from Xia Chu.Le Wei refused to accept it, and was stubborn with Tian Xiaomeng, saying that if he had earned so much money, he would still be able to endure such hardship.Later, he became his own boss and made a lot of money, but he couldn't bear it for two weeks, his will was still strong, and his body had already started to have a high fever.

Lying on the hospital bed, Le Wei stared at the drip bottle above his head. At that time, he really wanted to ask Xia Chu, how did you persist for so many years when you were so tired?

Le Wei walked down the stairs lightly. He wanted to help Xia Chu, but when he reached the corner of the stairs, Xia Chu's voice suddenly came from the kitchen.

"Well, here he is."

Levi stopped.

That "he" refers to himself.

Levi's intuition.

"...It should have arrived yesterday... No, he went directly to Sophie, and then... something happened. Anyway, he is at my house now."

The sound of the refrigerator door opening and closing came from the kitchen. Le Wei was not sure whether Xia Chu was using the earphone or making the phone call with one hand, but he couldn't hear the voice on the other side.However, the call will be made after [-] o'clock in the morning, so the other party should be a good friend, right?

Is it Han Song? Or someone else? Does Le Wei recognize him?

Le Wei couldn't hear Xia Chu's tone, he seemed to be simply stating the facts - Le Wei came and stayed at his home.Le Wei held his breath and listened quietly, as if the person opposite was talking about something. After a while, Xia Chu said: "Yes, he is not familiar with the place here, so I don't feel at ease living outside at such a late hour."

When the bread is baked, the bread machine makes a "ding".Xia Chu seemed to be processing, knives and forks colliding with dishes, he busied himself expertly while keeping on the phone.

"What did I think?" After a pause of three seconds, Xia Chu sighed, "To be honest, I'm a little surprised. His presence disrupted my original plan."

So what were your original plans?

Did I come over suddenly and disturb your life?

Le Wei held his breath and listened quietly, what he wanted to hear was this, and what he was afraid of hearing was also this.

The hand subconsciously supported the handrail, and the wooden stairs made a muffled sound.The sound from the kitchen stopped for a moment, and Le Wei heard Xia Chu say "I'll call you later" to the phone very quickly and in a low voice, then hung up the phone and walked over.

Le Wei pretended that he just got up and walked downstairs: "Morning."

Xia Chu smiled: "Morning. Did you sleep well?"

Le Wei also smiled: "Very good."

"That's good." Xia Chu pointed to the kitchen, "I made sandwiches, with bacon and salmon, in the kitchen, I can eat whatever I want. There are juice and milk in the cup, which are not sweet enough. There is sugar."

"Yes." Le Wei responded.

Xia Chu smiled: "Go and eat, I'll go up and wake Sophie up. If you don't get up again, you'll be late for school."

Le Wei nodded, Xia Chu rubbed his shoulder and went upstairs.

After a while, Xia Chu came down alone.

Le Wei didn't have much appetite, and the sandwich was tasteless, and it took a long time to eat less than half of it.Xia Chu thought it was because he didn't cook well, so he said apologetically, "Is it not to your taste? There are noodles in the drawer, how about I cook a bowl of noodles for you?"

According to Lewei's usual temper, at this moment he would definitely joke, "Do you know how to cook noodles?" Now that he was not in the mood, he just said, "No need. By the way, is Sophie awake yet?"

"Get up. Staying in bed." Xia Chu said.

"You don't need to help her dress and wash?"

"No. She is very good at taking care of herself, she can do all these things by herself." Xia Chu saw that Le Wei only ate a sandwich and then gave it up, so he handed him a packet of cookies.Le Wei received it in his hand, didn't open it, just squeezed it.

Is it possible that Xia Chu is not single now?

He doesn't have many contacts in China, and now he works for a Hollywood company.Guilao pays so much attention to privacy, how could it be possible for people to know the personal life of executives casually? Maybe, the information Fang Xiaomao told Le Wei was completely behind. Just found my soul mate and now has a stable relationship.

Maybe the person on the other end of the phone just now is Xia Chu's new boyfriend.

And he didn't understand the situation at all, so he came here rashly, making Xia Chu embarrassed.

No wonder he said he disrupted the original plan.

but……

Levi squeezed the cookie bag tightly.

In the hotel, when I dragged him into the bathroom, why did he take the initiative to kiss him?

It was because of that kiss that Le Wei felt that maybe not only he had never forgotten Xia Chu, but also Xia Chu had never forgotten himself in six years.

bother.

Le Wei really wanted to ask Xia Chu directly if he was single, but he couldn't ask after they met for less than 24 hours.

Xia Chu didn't know anything about Le Wei's complicated and tangled psychological activities.With his back to Levi, he put Sophie's breakfast on a plate, brought it to the dining table together with the milk in the cup, and said casually: "By the way, I forgot to ask last night, what are you doing in America this time?"
