you are my uncle

in the coffee shop.

"Why did you suddenly drag me into the coffee shop just now?" Liu Jiming asked Li Mo expressionlessly.

Li Mo's expression froze, "That's right, I suddenly want to drink coffee."

"Why didn't you tell about Xiao Rong and us together?"

"After watching the movie, Brother Rong had a stomachache and went back first, so I just said it and didn't mention him." Li Mo smiled a little pale.

Liu Jiming's interrogation-like attitude made him a little guilty. He admitted that he deliberately lured Liu Jiming in for coffee, just because he saw Zhaoming sitting and drinking with another strange man outside the glass window. Coffee, he wanted to see Liu Jiming's reaction.

He didn't mention that Xiao Rong went to the movies with them on purpose, he wanted to create a scene where he and Liu Jiming were dating alone, to show off in front of Zhao Ming.

Liu Jiming didn't deny it at that time, he thought that Liu Jiming was also willing, even though after drinking a cup of coffee, Liu Jiming's face was not very good-looking.

He raised his eyes and looked at Liu Jiming with some dodge, Liu Jiming seemed to sigh silently, "Let's go after drinking."

"Yes." He followed Liu Jiming out of the coffee shop.

"Take a taxi back first, I still have things to attend to." Liu Jiming suddenly stopped on the road.

Li Mo was stunned, "Okay."

"Be careful and rest early." Liu Jiming said caring words as before, but his tone was not as gentle and intimate as before.

Liu Jiming really changed, ever since he came back from abroad.Especially in front of that boy named Zhaoming, he seemed like another person, gloomy and forbearing.Just like now, after seeing Zhaoming, Liu Jiming's whole body is not right.

Liu Jiming slowly walked towards the parking lot, and Li Mo couldn't help but call him, "Jiming."

"What's wrong?" Liu Jiming turned his head, under the dim light, he couldn't see the expression on his face clearly.

Li Mo paused, and the two of them looked at each other from a distance of more than ten meters, "It's okay, you should also pay attention to safety, go home early."

"En." Liu Jiming nodded, and finally left without looking back.

Zhaoming sent Shen Shaofan to a nearby hotel, and the good man helped Shen Shaofan open a room, arranged everything, and put the room card given by the front desk lady into Shen Shaofan's hand, "Here, go in and rest quickly .”

Shen Shaofan looked at him with some reluctance, "Xiao Mingming, did you really throw me here?"

"Stop talking nonsense, there are two hundred yuan left, you can take a taxi home after dinner tomorrow." Zhaoming stuffed another 200 yuan into Shen Shaofan's hand.

Shen Shaofan slowly took the room card and money from Zhaoming.

"Okay, I'm going home too. You should think about what your dad said about letting you go to the army tonight. Anyway, I think it's fine." Zhaoming said, "I'm leaving, good night."

Shen Shaofan stayed on the spot all the time, and finally said with some disappointment: "Okay, good night."

Zhao Ming patted him on the shoulder, turned around and left the hotel door.

Sitting in the car, Liu Jiming watched Zhaoming and Shen Shaofan enter the hotel from a distance through the car window. Has it reached this point?In order to avoid him lying that he was going home, he ended up having a room with Shen Shaofan at the hotel.

Liu Jiming sneered, and there was a bit of inexplicable sadness in his smile. He watched Zhaoming and Shen Shaofan both enter the hotel gate, and stayed alone in the car for a while. He didn't stay for too long. He started the car , Melting into the busy traffic and red and green neon lights on the street.

As soon as Liu Jiming's car drove away, Zhaoming walked out of the hotel in the next second.Zhaoming stretched his muscles and heaved a sigh of relief. Tonight, it was almost like a war, and everything was finally settled.

Zhao Ming drove home with some apprehension. The speed of the car was slightly faster than usual. It was past twelve o'clock. Will that woman really wait for him?

Zhaoming returned home, walked quickly through the courtyard of the house, and walked towards the gate. When he approached the gate, he slowed down again, unable to move his legs.

Finally plucking up the courage to open the door, he looked towards the living room with anticipation and nervousness.

There was only one light on, which was dimmer than usual, in the living room. It was empty and lonely, and there was no one there.

Ah, really, how could I take it seriously, what an idiot.Zhaoming smiled self-deprecatingly, the fluctuations in his heart gradually calmed down, how could anyone really care about him and would be willing to wait for him to go home in the middle of the night.The only one there is his biological mother, and his mother passed away more than ten years ago.

"Mingming, you're finally back?" When he was disheartened, a familiar female voice rang out. He looked up, and Du Mengyi was coming out of the kitchen next to her, holding a glass of boiled water in her hand. Can't help but be delighted.

Zhao Ming suddenly froze, is this woman really waiting for him?

"I know you young people like to play, but you can't play until so late. It's almost one o'clock. It's cold outside. Auntie will go get you a cup of hot water." Du Mengyi walked over with the water glass and put the water glass on the bed. table, turned around and entered the kitchen.

Zhao Ming is glad that the light is so dim that she doesn't see his red eye sockets.

"Obviously, drink a cup of hot water." The woman walked out with another cup of warm water in a blink of an eye.

Zhaoming took the water glass, and finally couldn't help but say, "Thank you, Aunt Du." This was the first time he called a woman by the name of aunt.

The woman was stunned for a moment, and soon she smiled, "Hey, no thanks, no thanks, why are you so polite."

Zhaoming gulped down the water in one gulp, "I, I'm going back upstairs, and you should go to bed early too, good night."

"Okay, go to sleep." Du Mengyi said with a smile.

Zhaoming went upstairs quickly, he was afraid that if he stayed for a second longer, he would not be able to help crying.

When he went upstairs, he saw that the lights in his father's study room were still on, and the door was open. When he passed the study room, he heard his father ask in a vague way: "You're back?"

He stopped in his tracks. Inside the door, his father was lowering his head and processing a pile of documents. He thought he had heard it wrong, and was about to walk over quietly. His father said again: "Next time you go out, don't come back so late, you and I Aunt Du is very worried."

When Zhao Ming turned his head, his father had already put down the documents in his hand and was looking up at him.

"...Okay." Zhaoming felt a bit bitter in his throat, so he responded quickly and walked over quickly.

He heard the conversation between Aunt Du and his father behind him.

"Look at you, you're still pretending to be serious, if you're really worried, come downstairs with me and wait for Mingming..."

"Isn't that just like old-fashioned parents who are worried about returning home late as a minor, even though they're already such grown-ups."

"Then why don't you pretend to be processing the documents and ask me to call?" Aunt Du said with a smile.

......

Zhao Ming entered the room and finally shut the door of those words.

He came back, is it really just to remember his mother before leaving?
