Tolerate

Ling Suzhen didn't want her birthday to be too big.She is going to celebrate her [-]th birthday in three years, and she always feels that it's a good idea to play chuidao now.

So when Chi Muqiu and Chi Muyun called in the morning to urge her to get in the car and come to the hotel, she was taken aback——

"Didn't I tell you all, don't do it!"

That's what she said, the children gave her such a surprise, she was still happy in her heart, put on the newly bought cheongsam, and got in the car.

Chi Muyun and Chi Muqiu didn't want to hold a particularly big one either, they only invited relatives or close relatives and friends.

Ling Suzhen and Chi Tianxiang have been kind to others all their lives, and they have a lot of good relationships. If they are invited down like this, they are also people at several tables.

The entire third floor of the hotel is dedicated to Ling Suzhen's birthday.

Needless to say, the relatives and friends of the Ling family of the Chi family all came, as well as Xia Bing, Jiang Bei, Tang Yun, and some friends of Chi Muqiu.

Coupled with the presence of Grandpa Chi and Grandma Chi, some old friends and elderly relatives also came from afar.

Sun Juan's family also brought their "daughter-in-law" Tian Xin over.

Tian Xin's birthday wishes were thought of by Kevin for her. Her Chinese is so poor that she memorized four idioms and even made two mistakes, which made the elders laugh out loud.

Sun Juan is neither satisfied nor dissatisfied with this future daughter-in-law.Naturally, she still likes the graceful and indifferent Chinese girl like Chi Muyun the most, but who made her son Kevin like Tian Xin.

Kevin is more than 30 years old, and he never falls in love. Sun Juan is almost worried to death.Fortunately, a few days ago, she fell in love with Tian Xin—the son fell in love with a girl, so Sun Juan was thankful.

But since Kevin said that Chi Muqiu was suspected of being a lesbian last time, Sun Juan began to observe carefully.

... She didn't see anything, but felt that Chi Muqiu had a good relationship with that girl named Xia Bing.

She felt more relaxed.It seems that she still has hope to get married with an old friend's family.

"Hi, beauty, we meet again." Tian Xin walked up to Chi Muyun with a wine glass in her hand, and toasted her.

Chi Muyun also raised his glass with a smile, "Thank you for coming to celebrate my mother's birthday."

Lu Qingming turned his head and saw that woman named "Tian Xin" was talking to Chi Muyun again, she frowned and walked over to say hello, "Hello, sister."

Tian Xin's eyes lit up when he saw her, "Oh, it's a beautiful little sister, how are you!"

When Chi Muyun saw Tian Xin staring at Lu Qingming, he also felt uncomfortable.

She didn't want to just walk away and give Tian Xin a chance to spend time with Lu Qingming alone, so she started chatting with Tian Xin.

But she didn't expect that Lu Qingming had exactly the same idea as her, and the two chatted with Tian Xin like this.

It turns out that Tian Xin and Kevin met when they were studying abroad.Tian Xin grew up abroad and learned Chinese from a Chinese friend. This is her first time in China.

"Hot pot is the best." Tian Xin praised sincerely.

The three chatted awkwardly for a while, before Kevin realized that Tian Xin was gone, and came over to hold Tian Xin back, "What are you doing, this is, hurry up and eat, what are you doing pestering him?"

Tian Xin was dissatisfied and said, "Can't I talk to the beauties?" She turned around and looked at the two women with another warm attitude, "Then I'll go there first, and we can have a good chat when we have a chance."

After she finished speaking, she blinked and blew a kiss.

Kevin looked at her incredulously.

Chi Muyun and Lu Qingming were left looking at each other, and then they both laughed at the same time.

After dinner, most of the relatives and friends left separately, and only some family members stayed to talk to Ling Suzhen and his wife.

When bidding farewell, Tian Xin was still winking at Chi Muyun, Kevin pulled her behind in embarrassment, seeing his mother saying goodbye to his old friend, he whispered in English, "Do you want to go out of your way?"

Tian Xin shrugged her shoulders, "It doesn't matter to me if you get worn out, but you are finished."

Kevin begged in a softer voice, "Sister! Just three more days! Do me this favor, you are my friend forever!"

Others might not be able to hear their conversations, but Lu Qingming could hear them clearly.Moreover, Lu Qingming's hard work in English for so many years was not in vain, he could fully understand their speech.

???

Three huge question marks slowly appeared on Lu Qingming's head.

What are these two doing? ? ?

Over there, Kevin was still begging Tian Xin in a low voice, Tian Xin folded her arms and said, "Okay, I know. You can rest assured that others won't see it."

Seeing that his mother had already looked over, Kevin quickly shut up and bid farewell to his elders with a warm smile.

After seeing off the guests, Chi Muyun found that Lu Qingming had disappeared at some point, she looked around, and then saw Lu Qingming walking in from the outside holding a big box.

Isn't that... the box that "Senior" gave her? ? ?

When did Lu Qingming move the box here?Chi Muyun has been busy today, so he didn't notice at all...

Lu Qingming walked up to Ling Suzhen with the box in his arms, put the box on the ground and said, "I wish my uncle and grandma good health, long life, and happiness every day!"

The elders all laughed, interested to see what Lu Qingming was going to do.

Lu Qingming carefully opened the box, revealing a green leaf inside.After all the packaging was removed, Ling Suzhen said pleasantly, "Oh, did Qingming raise this herself?"

On the ground is a pot of orchids with outstanding posture, or the rare "Cymbidium"!

Ling Suzhen likes to take care of flowers and plants, especially orchids in recent years.The price of lotus petal orchids in the market is relatively high, and people in Alan know its preciousness.

Zheng Yi, Lu Qingming's senior in the same school, has excellent grades and has his own garden around the school for experiments and research.Lu Qingming rented a corner of his garden, picked orchid seedlings himself, and gave them to Ling Suzhen after they wanted to grow into a good shape.

It's just that Zheng Yi insists on not charging her rent and courier fees, which makes her very confused and a headache.

"It's so good..." Ling Suzhen knelt down and praised repeatedly, "I have never been able to grow such a good lotus petal orchid. Qingming has really grown up and is so powerful."

Lu Qingming touched the back of his head and said, "My uncle and grandma taught me."

Seeing that Lu Qingming is not only slim now, but also working hard and knowing how to be grateful, Grandpa Chi and Grandma Chi laughed until their wrinkles stretched out.

Xiao Zhuzi looked at the inconspicuous orchid, and asked in confusion, "What's so great about this flower?"

Lu Qingming smiled, "I don't understand either, you can ask your uncle."

Xiao Zhuzi looked at Ling Suzhen, Ling Suzhen smiled, and explained to Xiao Zhuzi the rare features of the lotus petal orchid.

Xiao Zhuzi half-understood, with an expression of ignorance.

The adults all laughed.

Sitting on the seat, Lu Qingming peeled a macadamia nut, and quietly handed it to Chi Muyun.

Chi Muyun took the nut and didn't put it in his mouth, but just looked at Lu Qingming.

She felt a little pleasantly surprised, and also slightly blamed. The happy thing was that this mysterious big box was not a gift from the "senior" to Lu Qingming, but a birthday gift that Lu Qingming entrusted the "senior" to send to Ling Suzhen.What she wanted to blame was, since it was a birthday gift for Ling Suzhen, why did she hide it from her.

Lu Qingming saw that she looked at him silently, completely unable to understand Chi Muyun's mood, and said with a smile, "Yun, why don't you eat it? I still have it here. Eat it quickly, and I'll peel it for you."

But...it seems to be just a small thing.

As long as it wasn't given by the "senior", she would be relieved.

Chi Muyun put the macadamia nut into his mouth, smiled slightly and said, "It's delicious."

Lu Qingming smiled, and peeled off another one for Chi Muyun.She rolled her big eyes and saw that the elders were chatting, so she moved closer and fed nuts into Chi Muyun's mouth like a thief.

Then he watched Chi Muyun's red lips move slightly and ate the nut with a smile, like a big mouse that had stolen lamp oil, complacent.

This secret love made her feel that she was the happiest person in the world.

Ling Suzhen was talking to her parents-in-law, when she turned her head inadvertently, she saw Lu Qingming and Chi Muyun sitting at a table in a corner, the young girl looked at Chi Muyun with shining eyes, as if looking at her most precious thing generally.

Chi Muyun kept her head down, but Ling Suzhen didn't see her expression.

"... Qingming is really promising." Seeing her staring at Lu Qingming, Grandma Chi changed the subject.

"That's right..." Ling Suzhen withdrew her gaze, responding to her mother-in-law's words.

"In our village, there is an 'immortal' named Er Xiazi, do you still remember?" Grandma Chi asked.

Ling Suzhen nodded, "Remember, didn't he tell Xiaoyun's fortune and gave him his birth date. He glanced at me and said the horoscope was wrong, so I didn't dare to say anything, only that I remembered it wrong."

Grandma Chi laughed and said, "That blind man is really a god, he knows everything. I even showed him the horoscope of Qingming, and he said that this child is blessed, but the blessing is not with the parents, but with a noble person in the southeast."

Ling Suzhen reacted quickly.She thought, according to the orientation of the village, from Lu Wensong's house, Chi's house is located in the southeast.

Her heart skipped a beat again.

Looking back, Lu Qingming and Chi Muyun were no longer sitting together.Chi Muyun went to help Chi Muqiu deal with the matter, while Lu Qingming and the driver repacked the lotus petal Cymbidium, and transported it back to Chi's house safely.

Ling Suzhen couldn't help but nodded.

This kid is really a very good kid...

If...if Lu Qingming was a boy...

Ling Suzhen felt another chug in her heart, she thought that she was really confused, thinking about such outrageous things.

Regardless of whether Chi Muyun was her biological child or not, in her heart, Xiaoyun would always be her biological daughter.

Her thoughts... completely messed up her seniority!

Thinking of this, she shook her head, and said inwardly that it was a pity.

After such a busy day, it was past ten o'clock at night when they returned home. Both Lu Qingming and Chi Muyun felt very tired.

"Yun, take a shower first." Lu Qingming said while sitting in the living room.She could tell that Chi Muyun was tired.

"You should wash first," Chi Muyun thought for a while and said, "I take a long time to take a shower, when I come out, you should be asleep."

"No, you wash it first." Lu Qingming sat firmly on the sofa, with his long legs raised, and resolutely said.

Chi Muyun's red lips were stained with a smile, it was a smile that Lu Qingming hadn't seen for a long time - it was when she was very young, when she peeked at Chi Muyun who was still in college.

So many years have passed, time has not carved any traces on Chi Muyun's face, that face is still fair and smooth, but there are very few sly and mischievous smiles when he was young.

Sometimes, some things don't disappear, but because there is no suitable person to show them, so they are quietly hidden in the bottom of my heart.

Only in front of Lu Qingming can Chi Muyun let go of all the so-called "adult calmness and calmness", and release the childish and playful side of his nature as he pleases.

Chi Muyun tilted his head and said with a smile, "Then... shall we wash together?"
