Chapter 17
◎Uncle and aunt◎
Sister Xu only stayed for three days because she had her own schedule and Liang Beihai was not very familiar with her, so she only greeted her mother via video on the day she arrived.
Before Xu's sister left, Liang Beihai packed his clothes and sent them to the company. Seeing Luo De's pitiful behavior, Zhang Xin ruthlessly exposed his mask.
"When I was busy before, I wanted to live in the office every day and never leave. It made no difference whether I rented an apartment or not. Now I have installed it."
"When your girlfriend was away on a business trip, you were so eager to stay at the office. How dare you criticize me? If you have so much free time, why not stay and work overtime with me?"
Liang Beihai felt ashamed to see Luo's unreasonable behavior, so he held his forehead and stopped Luo from continuing to speak: "I will work overtime with you, okay? I will work overtime with you today."
"No, you should go home early. I don't want to work overtime while you're here."
Liang Beihai was happy with his flawless concealment. Sister Xu went out early and came back late, and only when his mother and Aunt Xu had dinner together did they start a video call again.
"Beibei, I'm sorry to bother you these days."
"It's okay, Auntie. My sister just lives here and brought me a lot of food. Thank you too." Liang Beihai said as he greeted the middle-aged woman in the video and leaned on Xu's sister and acted coquettishly.
Because they were about the same age, and the Xu family's daughter was slightly older than Liang Beihai, they used to play together often. Later, when Liang Beihai went to college, they became a little distant.
"Tiantian, if you have anything to do, just ask Beibei to do it for you. She is too lazy to do it unless you tell her."
"Without Auntie, Beibei takes special care of me. Our Beibei has grown up." Xu Tian rubbed Liang Beihai's head and said, "The room is also very clean and tidy, which is completely different from when he was a child."
As he spoke, Xu Tian raised his phone and looked around the apartment. Liang Beihai thought proudly that Luo had done a thorough cleaning that day, and the room was in tidiness, which made Liang Beihai feel very proud.
It is true that a virtuous wife is like a treasure in the family.
Because Xu Tian had to leave early the next morning and Liang Beihai and she were going out for dinner, he hung up without saying a few words.
"I can't bear to part with you. This is the first time we play alone after growing up." After dinner, the two of them didn't plan to go anywhere else, so they walked back to their residence. Xu Tian sighed as he walked.
"Yeah, you have plans this time. Next time we can hang out together and stay a few more days."
"Okay, Beibei, hurry up, you've really grown up. You were just like a little brat before."
"No way, I was far ahead of my peers in maturity before. You're just too good, sister."
"You're still so sweet, but I'm relieved to see that you're doing well now. I heard from your aunt that your studies are going well and you're living well."
Liang Beihai held Xu Tian's arm, and the two continued to talk about the past and the present. After getting along with the people in the past, he suddenly realized that he had really grown, which made Liang Beihai feel happy and satisfied.
Liang Beihai has a driver's license, but he doesn't have much experience on the road, so he borrowed Luo's car to take Xu Tian there.
"Ah, I've only ridden in friends' cars before. It feels so magical to drive you now. I really feel like an adult." Although Liang Beihai spoke lightly, he was still nervous as he gripped the steering wheel.
Xu Tian looked at Liang Beihai, who was sitting upright, and was amused by her: "Beibei, don't be so nervous. You're nervous, and I'm nervous too."
Liang Beihai drove to the airport very carefully and parked the car carefully in the parking lot. He was wondering whether he should call Luo to come to the airport and drive him back. Although driving made him feel like an adult and free, he still really hated driving.
Liang Beihai felt a little sad after saying goodbye to Xu Tianhou. She didn't like parting, and she couldn't bear to part with him even if it was a very short meeting and happiness.
I was sitting on the bench, wanting to daydream for a while, and then I received a call from Luo.
"Where is Beibei?"
"The airport. Didn't I tell you I'd lend you my car to take someone there?"
"So where are you?"
Liang Beihai was a little confused when he heard Luo's words.
Luo De is here. At this moment when Liang Beihai needs someone to accompany him, Luo De is finally not absent. It’s so good to be married and to be in a relationship. I like Luo De so much.
The two continued to talk about their location, and soon Liang Beihai saw Luo waving at him.
"How about it? I didn't move you to tears, did I?" Luo De took Liang Beihai's hand and they walked towards the parking lot together.
"Almost. Add to that the sadness of parting. If you hadn't called me and I showed up unexpectedly, I would probably have cried."
"Then I'll keep trying next time."
"Well, keep up the good work." Liang Beihai, imitating the speech of an old-school leader, nodded in response to Luo's words. "Actually, I was going to call you to come, but I really didn't want to drive back. Lady Luo, you are truly my favorite."
Luo put his arm around Liang Beihai's neck without pressing down hard: "I told you you were fat and you're still panting."
"As a reward, I'll treat you to a big meal today. You've been living in the company lately and it's been hard." Liang Beihai broke free from Luo's restraints, put his arm around his waist and tickled him.
On the way back, Luo drove Liang Beihai to check restaurants and make reservations by phone. Finally, they drove directly to Ginza for dinner and also visited the exhibition that Liang Beihai had wanted to see before.
We decided to cook dinner at home, so we went to the supermarket again. Liang Beihai went out very early in the morning, and it was dark when he returned to the apartment after a busy day.
Liang Beihai suddenly realized that this was their first time going on a full day date and then returning home from the supermarket after buying groceries: "I noticed you didn't go to work today."
"Please spare me. I've been working overtime these days and there's so much work to do. The company won't be able to do anything without me."
Luo stopped talking before he finished speaking, and Liang Beihai also saw the person standing at the door of the apartment.
Yesterday, she was still praising her mature mother and her father whom she hadn't seen for a long time in the video, but the atmosphere was more suffocating than every time she faced her parents before.
Liang Beihai held Luo's hand tightly in an instant, and the voice in his head was: Run.
But she couldn't do that. Luo De also shook her hand back to give her some feedback, and Liang Beihai felt a little relieved.
"Mother"
Liang Beihai thought that he was indeed a little too proud. He carelessly sent the address to his mother and proudly showed off the apartment environment. If he had thought more about it, he would not have shown his mother the high-end apartment that did not meet his financial conditions.
Luo seemed calmer, swiped the access card, opened the door and stepped aside: "Uncle and aunt, please come in."
The four of them got on the elevator in silence. Liang Beihai thought he must be crazy, as he actually felt happy and at ease in such a tense atmosphere.
In the past, when I asked A Yu to give me courage to face my parents together, I always felt guilty and felt that I had implicated A Yu.
But at this moment, being with Luo, Liang Beihai found himself grateful.
It's great that Luo's is her accomplice.
