Chapter 106 New Year 03 Don’t arrange it for me, I don’t want blind dates. …
Chapter 35
When the last dish was served, Yue Fanglin said, "There aren't many people eating here, so I didn't ask Auntie to prepare too many dishes, so that they won't be unable to finish them. Don't complain that there aren't enough dishes."
"How could that be?" Lu Changfeng said repeatedly, "If you really prepare a table full of dishes that no one can finish, it will be a waste."
Yue Fanglin brought over some red wine. "You two will be taking a taxi back soon anyway, so have a drink. My daughter brought this to me when she came to celebrate Chinese New Year with her grandma yesterday."
Lu Changfeng waved his hands quickly: "Let's not drink the wine. We can't drink much. If we can't finish the red wine, it won't taste good next time."
"There's beer at home, too. One can per person."
Lu Changfeng unscrewed the fruit beer, "Fruit beer is good."
Jing Jue also said hurriedly: "Yes, fruit beer is already very good. I really can't drink much. If I drink too much later, Captain Lu will not only have to take Chunlai back, but also me. It will be too difficult for him."
My mother-in-law said, "Wine is not a good thing. It's better not to drink it. Just drink some fruit beer."
Yue Fanglin was no longer obsessed.
It was snowing outside. A few people were in the courtyard, looking at the falling snow through the transparent windows, while the food on the table inside was steaming.
Yue Fanglin picked up some food for Lu Changfeng and Jing Jue: "Just treat this as your own home, don't be polite."
"Okay, okay, you don't have to take care of us. We'll serve ourselves and make sure we're full."
After the meal, it was already nine o'clock in the evening.
Lu Changfeng and Jing Jue helped to clear the table, and Jing Jue offered to help wash the dishes.
Yue Fanglin said: "No, we have a dishwasher at home. Usually, it's just me and my mom living here, so it's not convenient for her to do housework. I'll just slack off on these chores if I can."
After watching TV series with my mother-in-law, it was time for her to go to bed.
Yue Fanglin helped pack up the cat's things and insisted on sending the two of them out of the alley.
When they reached the alley, Lu Changfeng said, "It's cold outside, go back quickly, and we'll send you a message when we get back."
Yue Fanglin waited with them until the car arrived before going home.
The two were silent all the way. Chunlai didn't like riding in the car very much, so as soon as he got home and opened the cage, he crawled under the sofa.
Jing Jue took a can and put it next to the sofa. Chun Lai smelled the can, came out from under the sofa and ate the can.
Jing Jue squatted aside and looked at Chunlai, "You little rascal who only recognizes Can Can and not his father."
Lu Changfeng opened the refrigerator to get some water and asked Jing Jue, "Would you like some water?"
Jing Jue nodded.
Lu Changfeng took a bottle of water and handed it to him.
Turn on the TV to add a little liveliness to the room.
He also sent a message to Yue Fanglin to tell him that he had arrived home.
After doing all this, Lu Changfeng and Jing Jue felt a little awkward being in the same room.
Just at this time, Qiu Shaoyang called via video and Lu Changfeng answered the call.
Qiu Shaoyang got straight to the point, "I have arranged your blind date."
"What?" Facing Qiu Shaoyang's zero-frame start, Lu Changfeng subconsciously looked up to see Jing Jue's reaction.
Jing Jue also raised his head in shock and looked at Lu Changfeng in disbelief.
Lu Changfeng panicked and rushed into the bedroom and closed the door. "Isn't there any blind date? Why did you arrange one for me?"
Qiu Shaoyang said: "We didn't want to arrange it at first, but then we talked to Mingtang on the way, and we thought it would be better to arrange a blind date for you."
"Why?" Lu Changfeng didn't understand.
Qiu Shaoyang: "If you don't hate your blind date, you can give it a try. If you really like your blind date and both of you are satisfied with each other, it will be a good story and you will have a plan for the rest of your life."
"But if I don't like someone, then I'm just wasting their time."
Qiu Shaoyang doesn't think so: "Blind date itself is a process of mutual selection. If you don't catch the other person's eye, you won't even have the chance to meet them a second time. If you don't like them the first time, you don't have to continue meeting them. Maybe it can help you recognize your true feelings as soon as possible."
Lu Changfeng rejected Qiu Shaoyang's idea: "Don't arrange it for me, I don't like blind dates."
"You don't want this or that, what do you want to do?" Qiu Shaoyang felt powerless.
Lu Changfeng glanced at the door guiltily, fearing that Jing Jue was lying on the door and eavesdropping: "You didn't even have a prelude just now, and Jing Jue heard everything. If I really went on a blind date as you said, the blind date would be in the morning, and the person would leave in the afternoon."
"Don't think about Jing Jue all the time. The more you do this, the more he will have fantasies about you."
Mingtang sat next to Qiu Shaoyang, took the phone and said to Lu Changfeng: "Changfeng, to be honest, you are not young anymore. You really need to sort out the things between you and Jing Jue as soon as possible. If you keep being trapped in love and wasting time, even if you want to be with Jing Jue in the future, he may not still have the same feelings for you. People will change. If I am always rejected by the person I like, I may not be able to keep pestering him. People have self-esteem."
"I will consider it carefully. Don't arrange any blind dates for me. I will think carefully about my relationship with Jing Jue and make a decision as soon as possible."
After hanging up the phone, Qiu Shaoyang raised his head and asked for a kiss.
Mingtang lowered his head and hugged Qiu Shaoyang and kissed him for a while, "The old neighborhood has poor sound insulation, so let's forget about it tonight."
"I didn't say I wanted to do it. Am I that hungry?" Qiu Shaoyang kicked Mingtang.
Mingtang asked Qiu Shaoyang to move to the other side to make room for him. "Do you think this trick of yours is useful?"
"Trust me, it will definitely work. After all, there are successful cases."
Mingtang was a little confused: "Where is the successful case?"
Qiu Shaoyang lay on Mingtang, held him and kissed his chin, "Aren't you a successful case."
"Me?" Ming Tang thought about Ling Chuan, "So you deliberately got close to Ling Chuan to provoke me?"
"Not entirely." Qiu Shaoyang changed to a comfortable position and lay down: "I really didn't like you that much at that time, I just had a little crush on you, and Lingchuan was the object of my crush when I was young. I naturally had no reason to refuse his invitation, but when I was with him, I could never think of you. At that time, I realized that although Lingchuan was the object of my crush in the past, that was in the past after all."
"I think Changfeng also likes Jing Jue, he just lacks the courage. I hope he can figure it out on his own."
In their opinion, Lu Changfeng's behavior was indeed not straightforward, but from Lu Changfeng's perspective, it was different. Lu Changfeng cherished Jing Jue very much. It was precisely because of this that he could not allow himself to make a mistake and cause him to lose Jing Jue.
The family affection between them is more important to Lu Changfeng.
Perhaps only when another person appears can Lu Changfeng realize his own heart and muster up the courage to take his relationship with Jing Jue to the next level.
Now it is a safe bet for Lu Changfeng. Even if he does nothing, Jing Jue will still be by his side.
But as Mingtang said, people have self-esteem, and if they are rejected too many times, they will gradually become numb. At that time, their relationship will not be able to remain the same as it is now as Lu Changfeng wants.
Their current stage is like rowing against the current. Jing Jue has already taken the initiative, and if he doesn't move forward, he will fall behind.
As a friend, Qiu Shaoyang hopes that Lu Changfeng can recognize his true heart and have happiness, instead of regretting it after missing it.
Lu Changfeng looked at the closed door. It was easy to close, but it took courage to open it.
He was afraid that Jing Jue was outside the door, and if he met Jing Jue's gaze, he would not know how to explain.
After he entered the room, Jing Jue didn't stay in the living room for too long and went back to his room.
The moment Jing Jue heard Qiu Shaoyang say that he would arrange a blind date for Lu Changfeng, he was shocked, followed by anger. His anger reached its peak.
There is a feeling of betrayal.
But when he calmed down, he felt it was reasonable.
Lu Changfeng and he are not in a relationship. It is Lu Changfeng's freedom to fall in love, get married, and have children. Lu Changfeng has no obligation to tell him.
The bond between him and Lu Changfeng is that Lu Changfeng has looked after him since he was a child, and that Lu Changfeng is now his immediate superior.
At most, he is Lu Changfeng's pursuer, and the pursued person has no obligation to inform the pursuer of all movements.
Jing Jue was helpless, not knowing whether the problem was with his gender or the fact that he had grown up under Lu Changfeng's care.
Jing Jue didn't know how to face Lu Changfeng. If Lu Changfeng could come and explain to her, that would be great. But if he was unwilling to explain, she had no right to ask him to explain anything.
The more I thought about Jing Jue, the sadder I felt. I hid under the quilt and cried secretly.
He really didn't know how to catch up with Lu Changfeng. As soon as he made a move, Lu Changfeng would hide like a mole.
Lu Changfeng was also repeatedly thinking about what Qiu Shaoyang and Mingtang said, and felt that what they said made sense. The current peace was based on the fact that Jing Jue still had feelings for him and was willing to stay by his side and wait for an opportunity.
In the future, when Jing Jue is no longer willing or tired, he will still leave, and it will be too late for him to keep him.
Lu Changfeng was also thinking seriously about the future of himself and Jing Jue.
The next day, they went back to work and went out together in the morning. Lu Changfeng and Jing Jue were both very nervous.
One is afraid that the other person will ask about a blind date, and the other is afraid that the other person will mention wanting a blind date.
The two glanced at each other from time to time, but nothing happened.
After we parted in the office, we both breathed a sigh of relief.
After a while, the office door was pushed open, and Lu Changfeng was so scared that he immediately straightened his back.
Yue Fanglin came in and saw this scene, and said, "Why are you acting like you've been caught doing something bad? What bad thing did you do?"
"No, I was just thinking about something, and suddenly I heard the door open, and I was startled."
Yue Fanglin joked: "If you haven't done anything wrong, you are not afraid of ghosts knocking on your door. What have you done wrong?"
Lu Changfeng laughed and was fooled.
After a while, the door was pushed open again. Lu Changfeng was startled again and looked up at the door. It was Zhou Yu standing at the door with something in his hand.
Zhou Yu also noticed Lu Changfeng's abnormality and quickly apologized, "I forgot to knock on the door."
Yue Fanglin looked at Zhou Yu and said, "What did you bring? I can smell the fragrance."
Zhou Yu smiled and said, "Dumplings, stuffed with pork and green onions, corn and shrimp, and cabbage and pork. My wife made them. I'll bring them here for you to try."
Zhou Yu gave each of them a box, which came with chopsticks and dipping sauce.
"Thank you. Thank you." Yue Fanglin took it quickly, "I like eating dumplings very much, but I am not good at making dumpling fillings."
Lu Changfeng also thanked Zhou Yu.
To be honest, the dumplings made by Zhou Yu’s wife are delicious and tasty.
After Zhou Yu left, Yue Fanglin asked Lu Changfeng, "Are you really alright?"
"Really not."
Seeing that Lu Changfeng was unwilling to talk, Yue Fanglin stopped asking: "Okay, then if you need my help with anything, just tell me. If you need someone to talk to about anything that bothers you, you can also tell me."
"Yes, I will."
