Wang Shuxiu said something, and neither Lu Lingxi nor Xiao Feng wanted to go against her will. Lu Lingxi hesitantly followed Xiao Feng out the door, looked back at the next door, and quickly sent a text message to Yan Yue.
He was naive but not stupid. The atmosphere at home was a little off in the morning, especially when he wanted to go find Yan Yue after dinner. Wang Shuxiu's tone immediately sounded unhappy. He vaguely sensed Wang Shuxiu's rejection of Yan Yue, and he felt unspeakable. From the community to Micro Gardening, Lu Lingxi was not unfamiliar with this road. He didn't say much after getting in the car, and kept thinking about Wang Shuxiu's reaction.
He didn't speak, and Xiao Feng didn't speak either, and the car fell into silence. In fact, Xiao Feng was thinking about saying something to Lu Lingxi about Wang Shuxiu's attitude while driving, so that Lu Lingxi could be mentally prepared in advance. Speaking of which, Xiao Feng was one of the first people to know about Lu Lingxi and Yan Yue's affairs. When he hadn't yet set his mind on Xiaohua, Yan Yue quietly trapped Lu Lingxi. Xiao Feng saw it clearly, but he didn't care about it. It wasn't until he wanted to pursue Wang Shuxiu and Lu Lingxi might become his son that he began to care about this matter.
Xiao Feng has been in the society for many years and has seen all kinds of people and life. He doesn't care about two men being together. He is open-minded and always thinks that life is like drinking water, and only you know whether it is hot or cold. As long as you live well, other people's opinions are shit. He insisted on being single despite Xiao Hong's soft and hard persuasion, and later married Wang Shuxiu despite everyone's eyes, which further illustrates this point. From his own perspective, Xiao Feng thinks that who Lu Lingxi is with is his own business, not to mention that even he can't find fault with Yan Yue's intentions towards Lu Lingxi. It can be seen that Lu Lingxi is also very happy.
But even though he said that, he also understood Wang Shuxiu's feelings. For so many years, Wang Shuxiu and Lu Lingxi have been dependent on each other. Lu Yishui is unreliable, and Xiaohua's whole heart is on Lu Lingxi. What a mother hopes for is nothing more than that her son lives a good and peaceful life. Apart from anything else, the current society seems open, but the acceptance of two men together is not as high as it appears. Lu Lingxi and Yan Yue are together, and it is foreseeable that they will encounter many problems. These problems were originally not faced by Lu Lingxi if he changed his lifestyle. From Xiaohua's point of view, it is natural to choose an easier path for Lu Lingxi.
With these thoughts in his mind, Xiao Feng was about to speak, but Lu Lingxi asked first, "Is mom angry?"
He asked directly, so Xiao Feng told the truth. "Xiao Hua is indeed a little unhappy." Without waiting for Lu Lingxi to continue asking, Xiao Feng said carefully: "Xiao Hua feels that you and Yan Yue are a little too close, Xiao Xi, and I am a little worried."
Lu Lingxi knew what he was worried about without Xiao Feng telling him. His relationship with Yan Yue was no secret to Xiao Feng. Lu Lingxi paused and asked, "Does mom not agree with me and Brother Yan being together?"
Although Wang Shuxiu was still unsure about the relationship between Lu Lingxi and Yan Yue, her attitude clearly showed that she disagreed. Xiao Feng did not admit it directly, but explained tactfully for Wang Shuxiu: "Xiaohua is also worried about you. Xiaoxi, you know that society is not very accepting of two men being together. It is inevitable that some people will look at you with prejudice. Your mother is also worried that you will feel pressured under such discrimination. Besides, Xiaohua thinks that you are still young and do not know how to distinguish what you really want. What if you regret it when you are older?"
Lu Lingxi listened to Xiao Feng's words and understood his mother's worries, but he didn't understand the connection between social discrimination and his pressure.
"Why would I feel stressed? Irrelevant people have nothing to do with my life."
He said it calmly. Xiao Feng was stunned for a moment but soon he started to laugh. "Okay, he's my son."
Originally, Lu Lingxi's life was very simple. Micro-gardening, home, and flower garden constituted his entire life. He had a clear mind and a pure heart, and nothing in the outside world could affect him at all. Xiao Feng was a little worried about Lu Lingxi, but it seemed that he was overthinking. He patted Lu Lingxi with relief and said, "Xiaoxi, just make your own decision. Whether it's your mother or me, we are just giving you suggestions. It's up to you to decide how to go in the future."
Lu Lingxi nodded vigorously upon hearing this.
After Xiao Feng sent Lu Lingxi to Micro Gardening, he did not leave immediately, but waited for Yan Yue at Micro Gardening. Not long after they arrived, Yan Yue also arrived soon. As soon as Yan Yue received Lu Lingxi's text message, he guessed something. Obviously, Wang Shuxiu began to doubt his relationship with Lu Lingxi.
"Xiao Xi." Yan Yue looked for Lu Lingxi first when he entered the room.
Lu Lingxi was watering the plants in the store. Hearing this, he looked up and smiled at Yan Yue. Seeing that he didn't look like anything was wrong, Yan Yue felt relieved. His eyes swept over Xiao Feng who was standing beside him. The two of them came out of Micro Gardening at the same time and started chatting at the door of Micro Gardening.
Lu Lingxi glanced at the two men's backs, wondering what Xiao Feng would say to Yan Yue, probably about what happened in the morning.
After a while, the two seemed to have finished talking. Xiao Feng did not stay in Weiyuan for long, Wang Shuxiu was still waiting for him at home. Lu Lingxi looked at Yan Yue eagerly as he entered the store, wanting to know what Xiao Feng had said.
Yan Yue smiled at his expression, her eyebrows slightly raised, but she didn't keep him in suspense. "Brother Feng said that mom already doubts our relationship."
This is no longer a secret. Lu Lingxi felt that he knew it earlier than Yan Yue. Although he didn't say anything, the expression on his face clearly showed his thoughts. Yan Yue's lips curled up, and a smile poured out of his eyes. He continued: "Brother Feng said that he is on our side and will find a way to convince mom."
Lu Lingxi's eyes lit up, "But..." Yan Yue changed his tone, "Brother Feng hopes that we can restrain our contact for the next two months. Mom is not in good health, and he is worried that she will be upset."
This was exactly what Yan Yue was worried about. Wang Shuxiu's child came at the right time. While Yan Yue was happy that the child could attract Wang Shuxiu's attention, he had to worry about Wang Shuxiu's health. He knew the position of Wang Shuxiu in Lu Lingxi's heart, and after weighing the pros and cons, he could only agree to Xiao Feng. Fortunately, Xiao Feng meant that it would be fine after the first three months, and when Wang Shuxiu's health stabilized, they would find a suitable opportunity to confess.
"Brother Yan..."
Yan Yue knew what Lu Lingxi was going to ask, and said softly, "I agree."
This was the answer Lu Lingxi expected. While he was relieved, he also felt a little sorry for Yan Yue. It would be great if his mother didn't object to him and Brother Yan being together.
That night, Wang Shuxiu once again brought up the matter of moving, and Lu Lingxi learned his lesson this time, and quickly expressed his willingness to move. Lu Lingxi did not mention Yan Yue at all throughout the night, and returned to his room obediently after dinner. Wang Shuxiu looked at Lu Lingxi's back suspiciously, and she was not very happy in her heart.
"What's wrong with Xiaohua?" Xiao Feng noticed Wang Shuxiu's expression and asked.
Wang Shuxiu hesitated for a few seconds and looked at Xiao Feng anxiously, "Do you think Xiaoxi is a little weird tonight?"
Xiao Feng was stunned, "What's weird about that?"
Wang Shuxiu frowned, "Xiao Xi usually wants to mention Yan Yue a hundred times a night, but tonight she didn't mention him once. Isn't that weird?"
Xiao Feng sneered, "Don't you dislike Xiao Xiti Yan Yue? Why are you still thinking about him now that he doesn't mention him anymore?"
Wang Shuxiu glared at him, "I don't like it, but don't you think it's strange that Xiaoxi is like this? Maybe he and Yan Yue had a fight, or..." She wanted to think that Lu Lingxi saw through her intentions and deliberately distanced himself from Yan Yue. This was what she wanted, but then she thought that if Lu Lingxi really did this, she would probably be unhappy, so Wang Shuxiu began to worry about Lu Lingxi again.
Xiao Feng looked at her helplessly, feeling that women's hearts are as unpredictable as the sea. Xiao Hua's temperament has become more and more unpredictable since she became pregnant. He shook his head and said nothing more.
Although Wang Shuxiu wanted to move, she was used to living in the community after all, and she couldn't move to Xiao Feng's place right away. Besides, Xiao Hong and Zhou Xiaoman lived there, and they would need to pack up if they moved here. The move was delayed for a few days.
These days, Lu Lingxi went to and from work alone, and went home after work, either accompanying Wang Shuxiu or reading in the room, and never mentioned Yan Yue's name at home. Wang Shuxiu saw it and guessed that Lu Lingxi did it on purpose. Although she didn't know whether Xiao Feng "tipped it off" or the little bastard saw through her intentions, no matter what, as long as Lu Lingxi and Yan Yue had a distance, it would be fine.
Wang Shuxiu breathed a sigh of relief, but Yan Yue had a hard time these days. He knew that Wang Shuxiu was keeping an eye on Lu Lingxi, and An Jie was busy, so he simply didn't go to Micro Gardening during the day. In the past, he was too busy to go to the store, but Lu Lingxi would always be by his side at night. Now, although the two of them are separated by only a wall, they can only communicate through text messages. Occasionally, he would have to make a phone call or video call at night secretly, for fear of being discovered by Wang Shuxiu.
Yan Yue found that he hadn't seen Lu Lingxi for two days, and he couldn't suppress the urge to see Lu Lingxi.
"Xiaoxi, are you there?" Yan Yue sent a text message.
Lu Lingxi was watching TV with Wang Shuxiu, and when his cell phone rang, he suddenly became nervous. He pretended to be calm and replied to a text message, then quickly put away the phone.
"Who?" Wang Shuxiu asked casually.
Lu Lingxi was slightly stunned, then quickly responded, "It was Officer Fang, talking about Dahei."
Dahei has been with Fang Lei for almost a week. Not to mention Lu Lingxi, even Wang Shuxiu misses him. She didn't feel that way when she was at home, but during this period of time when Dahei was not around, Wang Shuxiu always felt like something was missing at home.
"Is Dahei obedient over there?"
Speaking of Dahei, Lu Lingxi immediately became energetic. He nodded vigorously and said excitedly: "Dahei is very powerful. Officer Fang has a lot of stray dogs, and they all listen to Dahei."
He looked like two completely different people in this energetic state and the listless state he had just had when he was watching TV with Wang Shuxiu. Wang Shuxiu glared at him and slapped Lu Lingxi in the face, "Okay, go back to your room. I don't think you'll find this TV show boring."
Hearing this, Lu Lingxi hugged Wang Shuxiu's arm and smiled flatteringly, knowing that Wang Shuxiu saw how bored he was. But he couldn't be blamed for this, because the plot of a life drama like "Chinese Mother-in-law" was really boring. He remembered that Wang Shuxiu didn't like watching it before, and even told him that the plot was illogical. But since she got pregnant, Wang Shuxiu changed her previous preferences and actually watched it with relish, and even liked to catch people to talk about the plot. Xiao Feng hid in time, and it was Lu Lingxi who was caught every time.
With Wang Shuxiu's words, Lu Lingxi ran back to the room. While Wang Shuxiu was watching TV outside, he quickly called Yan Yue.
The two hadn't seen each other for two days. Although they hadn't seen each other before when Yan Yue wasn't around, this was the first time they hadn't seen each other for two days despite being separated by a wall. Not only did Yan Yue miss Lu Lingxi, but Lu Lingxi also missed Yan Yue. The two talked on the phone for a while, and Yan Yue thought about waiting for Wang Shuxiu to fall asleep before seeing Lu Lingxi.
"Yeah." Lu Lingxi nodded in agreement, thinking that it should be fine to wait until his mother fell asleep.
After agreeing to meet in the evening, the two hung up the phone. Lu Lingxi picked up a book and started reading, but he was not paying attention. He looked at the time again and again, hoping that it would be nine o'clock, which was Wang Shuxiu's bedtime.
At five minutes to nine, Wang Shuxiu came over and knocked on the door. "Xiaoxi, I'm going to bed. You should go to bed early too."
Lu Lingxi opened the door and tried to act as usual, "Good night, Mom."
As he spoke, his heart began to pound, almost jumping out of his chest. He was a little afraid that Wang Shuxiu would notice something, and he couldn't help but get nervous. Fortunately, Wang Shuxiu didn't notice his abnormality, and just gave him a few instructions and went back to the house. Lu Lingxi breathed a sigh of relief silently, closed the door and waited for Wang Shuxiu to fall asleep.
"Is mom asleep?"
"Maybe he fell asleep." Lu Lingxi was not sure, "How about waiting a little longer?"
"Okay, Xiaoxi, are you sleepy?"
"Not sleepy." Although it was already his usual sleeping time, Lu Lingxi didn't feel sleepy at all, but was unusually excited. In addition to his eagerness to see Yan Yue, Lu Lingxi was also excited and nervous about being discovered by his mother, which mixed together to form an indescribable excitement.
It was not until ten o'clock that Lu Lingxi tiptoed out of the door. As soon as he opened the balcony door, he saw Yan Yue waiting for him in the yard. The temperature in the early spring night was still several degrees below zero. Yan Yue hugged Lu Lingxi in a heavy down jacket.
"Xiao Xi, I miss you so much.
Lu Lingxi curled his eyes, seriously indicating that he missed Yan Yue too. It was almost the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, a full moon hung in the sky, the watery moonlight sprinkled down, Lu Lingxi's eyelashes flickered, as if there was light moonlight dancing on them.
Yan Yue seemed to be bewitched. He lowered his head involuntarily and kissed Lu Lingxi gently on the eyes.
Lu Lingxi blinked and wanted to say something, but on the balcony, Wang Shuxiu opened the door with a sullen face.
