On the dining table.
Mo Xingnian ate with big mouthfuls, smiling in a childish voice, but frowned worriedly, "Eat slowly, no one's going to snatch it from you!"
"Delicious!" After Mo Xingnian swallowed the food in his mouth, he looked at Qing Tongyin seriously and said, "Move over and live with me!"
"...Why bring this up again!" Qing Tongyin lowered her head, trying to avoid the topic.
"If you were here, I could see you every day, and I also want to eat the food you cook every day..." Mo Xingnian lowered his head, and kept inserting his chopsticks into the rice and taking them out, with his head down.
Qing Tongyin didn't say anything. Indeed, when he was cooking today, the things in the refrigerator were very clean but they were all expired. Mo Xingnian probably didn't cook much, so even the kitchen was very clean.
"No!" Qing Tongyin still rejected him cruelly. Mo Xingnian raised his head and looked at him puzzledly, "Why?"
"In fact, no matter what kind of relationship it is, the closer you get, the more unfamiliar you will become. Why do many people who used to be good friends eventually become strangers? I don't want us to become like this! So... our current relationship is actually pretty good now!" Qing Tongyin lowered her head with a forced smile on her face.
Mo Xingnian put down his chopsticks and said in a cold voice, "Actually, you think that one day we will... separate, right?"
Qing Tongyin's hand holding the chopsticks began to tremble, and she didn't say anything.
"You've never had the illusion that we can go on forever, right? In your heart, you still feel that this relationship is not worth protecting. You think this relationship is still shameful, right?" Mo Xingnian stood up suddenly and shouted at Qing Tongyin. The whole room was silent.
Qing Tongyin slowly raised her head and looked at him, "I'm afraid our relationship will end up like mine and Ruoshui's!"
"Enough!" Mo Xingnian lowered his head, sighed helplessly, and finally snorted coldly, "That woman Mo Ruoshui is already married and has children, and you're still thinking about her! Qing Tongyin, I've always been the one taking the initiative. I hope my initiative can make you change. I hope you can tell me your true thoughts one day! Tell me, tell me in person!"
"I..." Qing Tongyin looked at his distressed expression, and her heart ached. "I don't know how to say it. I really didn't think highly of our relationship at the beginning... I also wanted to devote myself to it... I... I..."
"Go away!" Mo Xingnian said lightly.
Qing Tongyin was stunned for a moment, didn't move, and looked at him quietly.
"Go away! Since you don't want to come and don't see a good idea, I can't force you!" Mo Xingnian said, turned around and left, going upstairs.
The door was slammed shut. Qing Tongyin came back to her senses, looked at the dishes on the table, and thought about how Mo Xingnian was angry at her just now. She felt a little sad, her nose felt sore, and she cried out of grievance.
Mo Xingnian, since you see me this way... I'm really just afraid that you'll get bored of me if we're together for too long. Why do you have to think so much?
Qing Tongyin cleaned up the food on the table, took her clothes and left.
Mo Xingnian stood at the floor-to-ceiling window on the second floor, holding a cigarette in his hand, looking at Mo Xingnian's leaving back with a melancholy look. Suddenly, Qing Tongyin turned around and looked at the second floor. Their eyes met, and Mo Xingnian turned and left.
Seeing his resolute look, Qing Tongyin turned and left.
Time always passes quickly, leaving people no time to remember what happened. Quietly, the lights of thousands of homes and street lamps fill the air, and the day to wash away the dust has arrived.
"Tongyin, help me get some water. This dough is too thick for me to work with!" Su Mian pressed the large piece of dough and kneaded it repeatedly, struggling. Qingshi stood aside and said, "Why are you making so many? There's not enough for the three of us!"
"Why are there three of us? Xingnian is coming too! The child is staying at home alone. How can I, as his godmother, take care of him all alone? Besides, I promised Qingyi to take care of Xingnian!" Su Mian had just finished speaking when the rolling pin in Qing Tongyin's hand fell to the ground.
Su Mian and Qing Shi looked at him "What's wrong?"
"No, it's okay!" Qing Tongyin picked it up again, washed it, and lowered her head. Mo Xingnian is coming?
It seems like they haven't seen each other for almost a month... I wonder how he is doing.
Suddenly, a headache struck. Qing Tongyin covered her head and frowned, trying not to think about him! He was the one who falsely accused her and refused to listen to her explanation. He even lost his temper and refused to apologize... If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have agreed to you in the first place!
A playboy!
Qing Tongyin raised her head and pinched her nose. Why did it feel sore? She couldn’t cry, absolutely not!
He came out with a rolling pin and stood next to Su Mian. "By the way, did you just say Mo Xingnian is coming?"
"yes!"
"But I remember that the last time we met he said he was going to the United States this month, and the meeting there had not been completed yet! He may not come!" Qing Tongyin lowered his head and said in a trembling voice.
"Ah? Really? Xingnian didn't tell me..." Su Mian said with some regret. Qingshi said with a serious face, "Look, you prepared so much without even asking if they're coming. What a waste!"
"You have to quarrel on New Year's Day, right?" Su Mian angrily threw the freshly wrapped dumplings on the table, pinched her waist, and stared at Qingshi with big eyes, as if she wanted to kill Qingshi with her eyes!
"Okay, okay, I was wrong, I was wrong. Okay, hurry up and pack it up. It's almost noon!" Qingshi surrendered and looked at her helplessly.
Su Mian rolled her eyes at him and continued with her work.
Qing Tongyin didn't say anything, and there was no expression on her face. Only she knew why she was being negative!
It was almost one in the afternoon when the steaming dumplings came out of the pot. Su Mian excitedly brought the dumplings to the table, took off her gloves, and handed the chopsticks to the father and son one by one, saying, "Hurry up, try it!"
I picked up a dumpling and put it in my mouth. When I bit into it, it was full of soup. It was very delicious. "Hmm, delicious!"
"Really? Let me try it too!... Well, my cooking skills are getting better and better!" Su Mian praised herself happily.
“Ding Dong!”
Qing Tongyin stood up and said, "I'll go open the door!"
"good!"
Qing Tongyin opened the door. A familiar figure and a familiar face appeared. The smile on Qing Tongyin's face froze. She lowered her head and asked, "Why are you here?"
"Come and eat dumplings!" Mo Xingnian said coldly, then lowered his eyes to glance at his arm. "You won't let me in?"
Qing Tongyin was stunned for a moment, put down her arms, turned sideways, and Mo Xingnian walked past her. Qing Tongyin was stunned for a moment, wait, I just told my mom that you went to the United States!
Su Mian turned her head to look at Mo Xingnian, and was stunned for a moment, "Xingnian! You are here?..." Then she stood up, pulled out a stool, and asked Mo Xingnian to sit over. Mo Xingnian sat over with a smile.
