My mother's social skills are impeccable. She did talk to Li Xiangze's mother about her godson. But this reason sounds like nonsense.
My mother said that she went to the temple a few days ago to ask an old monk to tell her fortune. The old monk said that something big would happen in their family this year and asked them to adopt a godson. She told this to Li Xiangze's mother, and his mother immediately pushed her own son out. My mother went with the flow and asked her son to be the other party's godson as well.
Xu Yan wanted to refuse, but Yan Qi didn't give her a chance to refuse.
After school on Friday, Dad came directly to the school and took them to the restaurant.
Li Xiangze's mother arrived at noon. Her mother took her out to play for the whole afternoon. Now the two of them sat together drinking tea and chatting.
Li Xiangze was stunned when he saw his mother.
Xu Yan usually runs a restaurant and is busy running around. She doesn't dress up much and keeps herself clean and tidy.
I put on makeup and wore a skirt today, and I suddenly looked ten years younger.
"Yan Yan, look, your son almost doesn't recognize you!" Mom joked with a smile.
"Mom." Li Xiangze walked towards Xu Yan with red eyes and held her hand.
"How about it, Xiaoze, is your mother beautiful?" Yan Qi asked.
"Yeah." Li Xiangze nodded.
"What does 'hmm' mean?" Mom tilted her head and smiled.
"Beautiful." Li Xiangze's voice was trembling and nasal.
Xu Yan blushed and smiled.
Li Xiangze hugged her tightly, buried himself in her clothes, and fell silent.
Xu Yan slowly patted her son's back: "What happened to our Xiaoze?"
Li Xiangze was crying.
Xiao Mingyang knew.
Li Xiangze looks cold, but he is actually soft-hearted and sensitive.
The last time we met, Xu Yan looked very tired. She was about the same age as my mother, but she felt like she was a dozen years older than her mother.
Today, she sat with her mother, talking and laughing.
His Aze must be feeling guilty.
All parents want their children to grow up healthily, and don’t children also want their parents to be happy?
I feel so sad and uncomfortable.
After a long time, Li Xiangze recovered. His mother took his hand and said to him with a smile, "Mom came here to tell you something good. I haven't told you before, but our small restaurant has opened a branch here."
Li Xiangze's eyes were red, and they immediately widened when he heard it. Then he slowly smiled, his voice trembling with excitement: "Really?!"
"Yes! I came here mainly to look at the shops. We have several chain stores of our own over there." Xu Yan couldn't hide the happiness in her eyes.
"That's great!" Li Xiangze's smile never relaxed.
"This is all thanks to your Aunt Xixi, who is the major shareholder of our family. It was she who encouraged me to take this step." Aunt Xu looked at Yan Qi with a smile.
"That shows I have good taste!" Yan Qi laughed, "Our Yanyan is a potential stock!"
"You've made me shy." Xu Yan smiled.
The traditional family recognition ceremony is very complicated, so they deleted a lot of content and only kept the kowtow and tea offering.
After the ceremony, my parents and Aunt Xu chatted about the restaurant's development here. Xiao Mingyang happily picked up some food for his wife and said with a smile, "We are brothers now, right?"
Li Xiangze nodded: "Yeah."
"Brother Aze~" Xiao Mingyang lowered his voice.
Li Xiangze got goosebumps all over his body and frowned at him: "Don't pinch it."
"Okay, brother~" Xiao Mingyang smiled.
Li Xiangze's facial features were grim and he tutted.
Xiao Mingyang was very happy, shaking his head: "Brother, brother, brother, brother, brother, brother, brother, brother, brother!"
Li Xiangze's mouth twitched: "Are you a chicken?"
Xiao Mingyang: "..."
Xiao Mingyang looked at him eagerly: "100 yuan a night, brother, do you want me?"
Li Xiangze: "..."
Li Xiangze wanted to tell her to get lost, but seeing the other person's expression, he changed his mind and said, "Okay, can I skip the third test?"
Even the radio gymnastics were performed like someone tripping over: "..."
＊
The next day.
Xiao Mingyang opened his eyes and found the house quiet. He opened his mobile phone to check the time, but his attention was drawn to the transfer message below.
[Ze transfers 20,000 yuan to you]
The sleepiness disappeared instantly.
He put on his slippers and rushed to the room opposite, knocked on the door, but there was no one inside.
He went downstairs again. His uncle was downstairs, drinking tea and chatting with his father.
There was also a breakfast on the table.
Xiao Mingyang greeted them: "Where's Aze?"
Uncle took a sip of tea and said, "Ranran is taking extra lessons in the study."
"Where are mom and the others?" Xiao Mingyang continued to ask.
"I left early. I went out to check out the shops," Dad put down his teacup. "Go wash up quickly. After you're done, come down and have breakfast."
Xiao Mingyang: "Oh."
After a while, he was lying on the stairs again, holding a toothbrush in his mouth: "How long have Aze and the others been in class? When will the get out of class end?"
"Probably another hour." Dad replied.
"oh."
A moment later he came out shirtless, holding a T-shirt: "Don't they have recess?"
"It's past recess," Dad said patiently, "Get dressed."
"Oh." He put on his clothes and went to the restaurant for breakfast.
After a while, he said again: "I'll give them some fruit. I'm tired from studying."
"Have breakfast first," said Dad.
"oh."
While eating, he asked again: "Are there any mangoes at home?"
"It's gone. If you want to eat some, go buy some later," said Dad.
"Where's the pear?"
“No more.”
"Where's the banana?"
“No more.”
"Where's the apple?"
Dad finally lost his patience: "Go and see for yourself after you finish your breakfast."
"Oh." Xiao Mingyang curled his lips and lowered his head to eat breakfast.
＊
It’s not nice to disturb students during tutoring.
Xiao Mingyang peeled two apples, cut them into pieces, and carried them upstairs. He put his ear to the study door and listened for a while. When there was no movement from inside, he knocked on the door.
Just as I was about to push the door open, it opened from the inside.
Li Xiangze saw him raise his eyebrows and asked, "Awake?"
Li Xiangze's hair was a little messy, and he looked a little lazy and comfortable. He had seen Li Xiangze in school who was drowsy after waking up, Li Xiangze spinning a pen while doing exercises, and Li Xiangze lecturing on the podium with great enthusiasm. This was the first time he saw Li Xiangze like this, and he looked at him in a trance.
Seeing that he didn't speak for a long time, the other party raised his eyebrows and looked at him quietly.
"Well, you're tired, eat some fruit." Xiao Mingyang immediately turned his attention to the fruit plate. He stuffed the plate to Li Xiangze and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Come to my room later."
Li Xiangze probably guessed what he was going to say, nodded, and put a piece of apple into his mouth with a toothpick. Xiao Mingyang's eyes followed the apple and drifted to his lips.
Li Xiangze's lips were rosy, and they moved slightly as he chewed, like jelly that had been slapped.
The mole at the corner of her mouth is the finishing touch.
His Adam's apple moved and Xiao Mingyang forced himself to look away.
"That's pretty sweet," Li Xiangze nodded. "Thank you."
He glanced back at the clock hanging in the study: "There are still 40 minutes left, you should memorize the words."
Xiao Mingyang, with his ears red and his head drooping, glanced at him secretly and said, "Don't forget." He went back to the room without looking back.
Li Xiangze closed the door and looked back. The little girl was looking at him.
He placed the fruit plate in front of Ranran: "Eat it, it's almost time to rest now, this problem must be solved."
Xiao Xiran looked at the apple on the plate with a strange expression. He looked at his handsome teacher very seriously and said, "I suspect my brother has been possessed by another spirit."
Li Xiangze raised his eyebrows: "Possession? Have you been reading online novels recently?"
"I'm serious," Xiao Xiran said with a serious expression. "My brother used to take an apple himself whenever he wanted one. He wouldn't even bring me one when I was next to him. But now, not only has he peeled the apple, he's also cut it into pieces! That's horrible!"
Li Xiangze didn't talk nonsense with her. He tapped the problem on the table and said, "Solve it in 5 minutes."
The little girl curled her lips and lowered her head to write the questions.
Xiao Mingyang is quite similar to his sister, both of them like to pout.
Li Xiangze chuckled.
Very cute.
＊
The 40 minutes passed quickly.
After Xiao Mingyang finished memorizing a unit of words, Li Xiangze knocked on the door and walked in.
He put Xiao Gan down, dragged out two lazy sofas, and went to the small refrigerator in the room to get a bottle of Coke and Assam.
"What about the 20,000 yuan?" Xiao Mingyang threw Assam to him.
Li Xiangze took it: "My mom sent it to me this morning and asked me to pass it on to you."
Xiao Mingyang plopped down on the lazy sofa and opened a Coke: "I can't accept this money. Isn't your mother going to open a chain store here? Decoration and other things will cost money. I'm not in a hurry here. Let's wait until we settle down." He tilted his head back and took a few sips.
"I have enough money." Li Xiangze also sat down and put the milk tea aside.
"20,000 is not a small amount of money, and the business may make a profit or a loss, but I won't accept it anyway," said Xiao Mingyang.
Li Xiangze stared at him for a while, his eyes reddened.
Xiao Mingyang's heart seemed to be twisted, but his tone was still very determined: "I won't accept your cry!"
Li Xiangze chuckled, "I know. I'll tell Mom."
Xiao Mingyang smiled brightly: "Are you going to the bar tonight?"
Li Xiangze: "No, it's too far."
"You're not going out on weekends anymore?"
"Um."
"Do you still go there normally?"
Li Xiangze's daily routine is truly amazing.
Xiao Mingyang ate with him every day. Li Xiangze's appetite was obviously not less than his, but he was very thin.
It would be a lie to say I don't feel sad.
"I have already resigned." Li Xiangze said.
Xiao Mingyang rushed over and hugged him: "That's great! Brother, you finally don't have to be so tired!"
Li Xiangze chuckled softly and patted him on the back: "Little Lamb, have you forgotten something?"
"Forgot what?"
"You didn't screw the cap off the Coke bottle."
Xiao Mingyang felt something cold in front of him and jumped up suddenly.
Li Xiangze's clothes got wet along with his clothes.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry," Xiao Mingyang quickly put the bottle cap back on and put it aside, "I was just too excited."
"It's okay." Li Xiangze was only wearing a short-sleeved T-shirt, and he took it off swiftly.
Xiao Mingyang's pupils trembled.
no.
Damn it.
If he remembered correctly, he seemed to have come out.
Li Xiangze stared at him for a few seconds, then suddenly realized, "Oh, sorry, I forgot."
He got up and went to the bathroom in Xiao Mingyang's room. The moment he closed the door, Xiao Mingyang collapsed on the lazy sofa.
Li Xiangze's fair skin and slim figure were replaying in my mind.
He does have muscles, but a thin layer. I don't know if they're hard when I pinch them...
The bathroom door opened and Li Xiangze poked his head out: "Get some clothes."
Xiao Mingyang awkwardly went to his cloakroom to get a T-shirt, turned his head to the side, and handed it to him.
Li Xiangze looked at the other person's red ears and fell into deep thought.
If he remembered correctly, during physical education class, when Chen Qiu got hot from playing basketball, he would just take off his shirt. He would do this for the entire class unless the physical education teacher came.
Was Xiao Mingyang so shy at that time?
I'm not sure, usually they play basketball while doing exercises on it.
Li Xiangze pursed his lips and took the clothes: "Thank you."
I'll have to observe next time.
