Chapter 4: Forced to agree to a date
Unexpectedly, Qiao Shuyan agreed.
This matter was full of twists and turns. When Liang Yu sent a message to Qiao Shuyan, he was still on the subway. As Liang Yu expected, Qiao Shuyan was reluctant to go hiking with a man he just met in such a cold weather. However, he also thought Liang Yu was a good person, so he struggled for a long time on how to reply. So Liang Yu saw him "typing" for several minutes, and finally said: Sorry, I have something to do tomorrow, how about next time?
Liang Yu felt relieved when he received this reply.
He doesn't want to mess with straight men, so the best way is to stay away from him.
However, when Liang Yu returned home and took a shower, there was a missed call and two unread WeChat messages on his phone, all from the same person.
Yan: Which mountain are you going to tomorrow?
Yan: What time do we leave? Can you pick me up?
Liang Yu was caught off guard by the 180-degree turn of events, but Qiao Shuyan didn't want to see it either.
When Qiao Shuyan came in with a big bag of skin care products, Ms. Sun Xumin was sitting on the sofa in the living room watching TV. When she saw her son coming back from the blind date, Ms. Sun quickly turned off the TV and greeted him with a big smile on her face. Qiao Shuyan observed that his mother's expression was a little more nervous and excited than when he met those 37 girls before. It was very puzzling. How could a mother be so happy just because her son met a man on a blind date, and she almost went out to set off fireworks to celebrate.
"How is it?" Ms. Sun asked eagerly.
Qiao Shuyan placed the shopping bag in his hand on the small sofa in the entrance hall, took off his coat and changed his shoes, and then said, "It's okay."
"Please tell me more."
Qiao Shuyan: "…She is just pretty good-looking, better looking and taller than me, which makes me feel ashamed of myself."
Ms. Sun said proudly, "Of course, don't you see whose best friend's son he is?"
No, your best friend's son has nothing to do with you. Why are you showing off? Qiao Shuyan rolled his eyes in his heart. Besides, your own son is standing in front of you. Why are you feeling a little emo because of your best friend's outstanding son?
Qiao Shuyan said that it was time to "take a bath". "Mom, I'm going to take a bath first." Then he was about to walk towards the bedroom.
However, Ms. Sun quickly grabbed him and said, "Wait a minute, explain everything clearly before you leave."
"Mom, this is the first time we met each other today. What do you expect me to tell you?" Qiao Shuyan collapsed. If she had known, she should have come back later.
"So what are your plans?" Qiao's mother still insisted, "When are you two going to meet next time? You are already 26, time is running out, so you should hurry up and cultivate your relationship so that you can get married."
"...Mom, first of all, I still have some time to go before I turn 26. Secondly, the average life expectancy in our country is almost 80. I think I still have plenty of time." People who didn't know would think he was dying.
Mother Qiao frowned and said, "Don't dodge the important questions. Tell the truth."
Qiao Shuyan raised his hands in surrender, "What do you want to confess?"
"What does Xiao Liang think of you? Have you two arranged a time to meet next time?"
"I don't know how he evaluates me, I didn't ask!" Qiao Shuyan collapsed.
"What's the second question?" Mother Qiao asked.
Qiao Shuyan said somewhat guiltily, "How could it be that fast?" He looked away unconsciously.
Unfortunately, he couldn't escape the sharp eyes of Qiao's mother, who said sternly, "Don't lie to me."
Qiao Shuyan suddenly dreamed of his childhood, and in the next second he explained clearly that Liang Yu had asked him to go hiking.
Ms. Sun was in a good mood after hearing this, and forced Qiao Shuyan to call Liang Yu to change his mind. If the call didn't go through, she would just send a WeChat message.
So, it was Liang who received the WeChat message and felt depressed. Why couldn't he avoid it?
And the bag of skin care products placed on the sofa in the hallway is also emo: I am so big and so expensive, why does no one pay attention to me?
When Qiao Shuyan came out of the shower, he saw his mother was about to open the bag of skin care products that was so big and so expensive, and he hurriedly shouted, "Mom, please have mercy!"
Ms. Sun turned around and looked at Qiao Shuyan dimly, "Isn't this a thank-you gift for Mom?"
"..."Thank you for introducing me to your boyfriend? Qiao Shuyan resisted the urge to roll his eyes and said, "It's a birthday present for my sister."
"Oh, yes, your birthdays are coming soon. What gift do you want this year? Mom will give you a boyfriend." Mother Qiao said happily and put the bag of cosmetics into the top cabinet in the entrance hall.
What kind of boyfriend? Qiao Shuyan returned to the bedroom in silence, turned on his phone and found that Liang Yu had replied to him: I will leave at around six o'clock tomorrow morning and go to Cangnan Mountain in the south of the city. Where is your home? Send me the location.
Yan: So early?
Yan: [Location] Yangliuan
Liang Yu replied quickly: Got it, I'll leave at 6:45 tomorrow morning and arrive downstairs at your house around 7 o'clock.
Hiko: Okay.
Ethan L: Go to bed early, good night.
Yan: Good night.
After replying, Qiao Shuyan suddenly felt something was a little strange. He looked through the few conversations between the two of them, but he felt that he was not used to it. He seemed to have never had such a conversation with anyone before, both parties meeting and saying goodnight to each other...but this feeling didn't seem too bad.
After a busy night, Qiao Shuyan was tired and was about to go to sleep when he suddenly remembered something. He opened his phone and found his brother-in-law's WeChat and sent him a message: Brother-in-law, the birthday gift I bought for my sister is skin care products, please don't buy too much.
After sending it, Qiao Shuyan always felt that he had forgotten something, but he couldn't remember it after thinking for a long time, so he charged his mobile phone, turned off the lights, and went to sleep.
The next morning, Qiao Shuyan was pulled out of bed by Ms. Sun.
——Yes, Qiao Shuyan forgot to set the alarm, Liang Yu went downstairs to call him, but the phone was muted and no one answered. In desperation, Liang Yu called his mother to tell her about the situation, and Ms. Yao called Ms. Sun, who came over and used all her strength to pull her son, who weighed more than 100 pounds, out of bed.
Qiao Shuyan said dazedly: "Mom, today is Saturday... Let me sleep a little longer..."
Ms. Sun roared: "Why are you sleeping? Xiao Liang has been waiting for you downstairs for more than ten minutes. I give you five minutes to get out of the house!"
Qiao Shuyan didn't react for a moment and wanted to lie down on the bed, but Qiao's mother held him tightly and he couldn't fall down.
After a dozen seconds, Qiao Shuyan came to his senses, sobered up instantly, opened his eyes and looked at Qiao's mother, then picked up the phone on the bedside table and took a look. There were several missed calls from Liang Yu and several WeChat reminders. Then, he got out of bed quickly and spent four minutes brushing his teeth, washing his face and changing clothes. Five minutes later, he was fully dressed and stood at the door to say goodbye to his mother: "Mom, I'm leaving." Then, he took the two breakfasts prepared by Ms. Sun and went downstairs.
On the way, Qiao Shuyan opened his mobile phone and took a look at the message sent by Liang Yu. It was the information of his car, a black Tesla Model X, with the license plate number on the back.
Model X, what a leek emperor! Qiao Shuyan sighed, Liang Yu is really good at making money.
Soon we arrived at the gate of the community, and sure enough, there was a black Tesla parked there, polished to a gleaming shine, with its hazard lights flashing.
Qiao Shuyan walked in and was about to open the door when the passenger door opened by itself. Qiao Shuyan was shocked. Nowadays, cars can open their doors by themselves! But he immediately saw Liang Yu's handsome face, so he greeted him and apologized, "Liang Yu, good morning. I'm so sorry I'm late."
"It's okay. Come up first." Liang Yu said.
Qiao Shuyan still felt embarrassed, so she handed him the breakfast in her hand as soon as she got in the car, "My mother prepared breakfast for us, would you like some?"
Liang Yu said, "No hurry, let's go first." Then he started the car.
Model X is Model X, it is a great tool for showing off. The car made no sound and drove away from the gate of the community at a very fast speed, leaving a trail of dust on the somewhat quiet streets on Saturday morning.
Qiao Shuyan looked at the car curiously and made up his mind to try out the two gull-wing doors at the back. Then, he opened his breakfast - a sandwich made by Ms. Sun, AKA "everything on toast" - and started eating. After eating two bites, he felt that he was a bit too much. Liang Yu came to wait for him for a long time early in the morning without saying anything. Now he was driving the car and he was eating breakfast in the passenger seat. It was inappropriate to say anything. So, Qiao Shuyan opened another breakfast, took out some, and wanted to hand it to Liang Yu, but then he thought that he couldn't eat while driving with both hands. In view of the guilt of not muting the alarm ring on his phone and making people wait, Qiao Shuyan raised the breakfast to Liang Yu's mouth: "Liang Yu, eat."
The latter had never expected him to do such a thing and was stunned for a moment. After a few seconds, he said, "No, wait a while."
Qiao Shuyan insisted, "It will take more than an hour to drive from my home to Cangnan Mountain. I'll hold it and you eat it." As he spoke, Qiao Shuyan handed the sandwich in his hand to Liang Yu's lips again.
There was a manhole cover on the road. Liang Yu was a little distracted and didn't avoid it. The car shook, and then Liang Yu felt something touching his lips. He glanced and saw that it was Qiao Shuyan's finger.
Liang Yu's heart couldn't help but tighten, and his breathing became a little disordered. He wanted to refuse the other party, but was afraid that the other party would insist, so he had to take a bite of the sandwich.
Qiao Shuyansi didn't realize what happened. She just smiled and asked, "How is my mother's cooking?"
Liang Yu cleared his throat and said, "Yeah, very good." However, Liang Yu was actually a little confused at this moment and had no idea what this breakfast tasted like.
As if encouraged, Qiao Shuyan stuffed the sandwich into his mouth more diligently.
Liang Yu was disturbed by his actions. He let out a breath and felt a little irritated. He drove less steadily, which led to more skin contact between him and Qiao Shuyan.
vicious cycle.
When Liang Yu finally finished eating the whole sandwich, he felt a blockage in his throat - he ate too fast in order to end the torture as soon as possible.
Qiao Shuyan was completely unaware of Liang Yu's psychological changes. He was just happy that the other party had finished his breakfast, so he also finished his own breakfast with peace of mind.
The heater in the Tesla was turned on quite high, and Qiao Shuyan was feeling very warm and aroused, so he went to have a meeting with Zhou Gong soon.
Qiao Shuyan slept so deeply that Liang Yu was reluctant to wake him up after they arrived at their destination.
Liang Yu and Qiao Shuyan met for the first time last night, but he had no chance to observe him carefully until now. Qiao Shuyan's skin is white and delicate, and you can imagine that it feels good to touch. His eyebrows are not heavy for men, but a little light. The eyes under his eyebrows are clean and clear, like an unpolluted spring. At this time, his eyelashes fluttered slightly, and Liang Yu realized that his eyelashes were too long. Liang Yu had seen his mother's false eyelashes, and he thought Qiao Shuyan's eyelashes were longer than fake ones. His nose is relatively small, and his lips are pink and tender, more attractive than a woman with lipstick on.
In general, Qiao Shuyan's appearance is not particularly delicate, but it is definitely far above average. The key is that this look is also ingrained in his heart.
Liang Yu stared at Qiao Shuyan in a daze. The latter opened his eyes at some point, and their eyes met. The air seemed to stagnate for a moment, and the atmosphere became a little awkward.
Because Liang Yu leaned over from the driver's seat to look at Qiao Shuyan, the two were very close at this time.
It was so close that Liang Yu's breath hit Qiao Shuyan's face, and Qiao Shuyan could hear Liang Yu's strong heartbeat.
