Lin Zhengran helped his parents to serve the dishes.
Fang Meng was washing her face in the bathroom, trying to prove to herself that this was not a dream, and the cold tap water splashed on her face.
But it's really deadly.
Fang Meng's mother, who was standing by, saw her daughter washing her face and joked with a smile: "Ranran, come to think of it, are there still a lot of girls wearing makeup in college now? Anyway, girls in our generation were very fond of beauty."
Lin Zhengran responded: "Well, most people wear makeup, especially on weekends, but some don't wear makeup during class."
Fang Meng's mother boasted and laughed: "That's right, for example, our Meng Meng doesn't wear much makeup and has very good skin. Ranran, do you think our Meng Meng is pretty?"
Fang Meng, who was washing her face, stood facing the mirror when she heard her mother's question.
Lin Zhengran replied casually: "Of course, Fang Meng is beautiful."
Fang Meng's mother was happy: "Meng Meng, your brother Ran Ran praised you for being good-looking, come and help serve the dishes!"
Fang Meng listened to Lin Zhengran's praise with trembling voice: "Here it comes."
Lin Xiaoli listened to what Fang Meng's mother said, and suddenly touched her son with her arm.
Lin Zhengran looked at his mother in confusion: "What?"
Lin Xiaoli smacked her lips softly, obviously asking her son what he thought. This mother was very obvious, what do you think?
Logically speaking, since her boyfriend already has a girlfriend, she shouldn't ask about such things anymore, but her son is not normal in this regard.
Lin Zhengran raised one hand and made a six gesture, smiling.
Lin Xiaoli: “???”
Lin Xiaoli: “What do you mean?”
"Six," he replied.
Lin Zhengran continued to serve the dishes, and Fang Meng also helped.
Confused, Lin Xiaoli walked to her husband, muttering the number six.
Lin Yingjun asked: "What's wrong with you? What are you mumbling about?"
Lin Xiaoli looked at her husband and whispered, "I just asked Ranran what he thought of Mengmeng."
Lin Yingjun was curious: "What did Ranran say?"
"He said six."
Lin Yingjun was stunned: "Six? Ranran, have you played too many games?"
Lin Xiaoli frowned: "What games did you play too much? Your son doesn't play games as often as you do. You are the only one who is addicted to games. You still can't get enough at such an old age."
Lin Yingjun did not refute but just silently said: "Six."
Lin Xiaoli elbowed her husband and retorted like a spoiled child: "What are you talking about? You are talking nonsense here."
The meals were served on the table.
Both families sat down, and Lin Zhengran took out the drinks he had bought and handed them to Fang Meng.
Fang Meng took it and said thank you softly.
During the meal, Fang Meng was a little silent, and Lin Zhengran didn't like to talk too much while eating.
The elders were still chatting animatedly, talking about the past and other random things.
Lin Zhengran listened to their chat as he picked up a crab from the plate and cracked it open.
It was full of crab meat. He took a bite of the crab and found it delicious.
Fang Meng also picked up a crab and asked, "When will you go back this afternoon?"
Lin Zhengran broke off the crab legs one by one and ate the meat: "Don't worry, I don't have anything to do today, I just need to go back before tonight."
"Hmm." Fang Meng broke the crab open and looked at the crab roe inside. Although she didn't understand the current situation, she still handed the crab belly to Lin Zhengran.
Lin Zhengran looked at the crab belly on the plate: "You don't eat crab roe?"
Fang Meng didn't look at Lin Zhengran, her ears were still red: "I'll just eat the crab legs, you eat it."
Lin Zhengran inexplicably thought of a certain silly girl who was the same. If she saw that he was eating something and thought it was delicious, she would give it to him.
Fang Meng saw him in a trance and asked curiously: "What are you thinking about?"
Lin Zhengran recalled: "When He Qing came to our house for dinner, she often...
Before she could finish her words, Fang Meng suddenly puffed out her cheeks in jealousy when the other girls' names were mentioned.
He concentrated on eating his crabs, looking stubborn as if he didn't want to listen.
Seeing her like this, Lin Zhengran stopped talking.
After the two families finished their meal at noon, Fang Meng was planning to help his uncle and aunt clean up the dishes and wash the plates, but Fang Meng's father suddenly received a phone call.
After talking to the other party for a while, he said, "Honey, who called me? Let's help clean up and go back, shall we?"
Lin Yingjun: "Leaving so early? At least have some tea and rest after dinner."
Lin Xiaoli said politely: "Yes, there is no hurry to leave."
Fang Meng's father was not so polite because he knew them. "It's okay with the company's affairs. Anyway, our two families are close. We can get together again when we have time. Next time, it's your turn to visit our home. We will treat your family well."
Seeing that the other party really had something to do, Lin Yingjun didn't stay any longer.
"Since you have something to do, you don't have to help us clean up these dishes. Go ahead and do your work. We'll meet again next time."
Fang Meng's mother also knew that work was the most important thing: "Okay, then we'll go. Mengmeng, say hello and goodbye to your brother Ranran."
Fang Meng didn't expect to leave in such a hurry.
Look at Lin Zhengran.
Lin Zhengran's family sent Fang Meng's family downstairs.
The elders said goodbye to each other, while Fang Meng and Lin Zhengran also said goodbye while standing in the corridor.
Fang Meng: "I'm going back."
"Well, go slower on the road."
She felt that this way of saying goodbye was so ordinary. Sure enough, the scene just now was not a confession. Although it really looked like one, and Lin Zhengran also said in person that he liked me, but this kind of conversation... "Then I'm leaving..." she was reluctant to leave.
Seeing that she was not happy, Lin Zhengran called out, “Fang Meng.”
The moment he called her, Fang Meng perked up: "Yeah! I'm here, what's wrong?"
"I know you're here." He smiled and said, "Come here."
Because the elders were still saying goodbye and being polite downstairs, no one saw them here, so Fang Meng walked over without thinking too much.
"Come closer," Lin Zhengran said again.
Fang Meng didn't understand what he was going to do, so she took two more steps and stood in front of him, very close to him.
"What's up."
After she asked, Lin Zhengran smiled, causing Fang Meng's heart to stop beating.
Lin Zhengran slowly hugged Fang Meng: "Go slowly on the road, bye."
Fang Meng was hugged by him and smelled his scent. Her voice was like the hum of a mosquito, her face flushed, and she felt light-headed: "Bye..."
A few minutes later, it was goodbye.
Fang Meng's parents drove home with their daughter.
Fang Meng was sitting in the back seat with her head down and her cheeks smoldering.
She pursed her lips tightly, with confusion and shyness in her eyes.
She didn't understand, couldn't tell the difference, couldn't tell anything.
Fang Meng's father said while driving: "Old Lin hasn't changed much over the years. He has a very good relationship with Xiao Li. You can see that when they eat, they touch each other with their arms. It's been so many years."
The mother also had a lot of fun this time: "They really have a good relationship. Mengmeng." She turned around and asked her daughter: "How was the fun this time?"
The daughter didn't say anything again.
"Mengmeng?"
Fang Meng looked up with a red face: "Hmm? What's wrong, mom?"
Fang Meng's mother looked at her daughter's shy look and wanted to laugh: "What's wrong with you? Why do you look so shy? You just came back from shopping with your brother Ranran and you're in a daze again."
Fang Meng looked out the window and stammered, "Nothing, nothing."
Fang Meng's mother didn't ask any more questions, but turned around and knew what her daughter was thinking: "If you really have this idea, hurry up. I think your brother Ranran likes you very much, too."
Fang Meng's father was not in a hurry: "Why are you always in a hurry? Our daughter hasn't graduated from college yet."
Fang Meng's mother complained: "What do you know? Don't you know that youth is gone and never comes back?"
"Okay, here comes the youth literature thing again, Mengmeng, you should never learn from your mother in the future."
Fang Meng in the back seat didn't hear anything at all. She just kept recalling what had just happened. (End of this chapter)
