Newlywed Diary Of Memoirs - Chapter 35
After years since that incident, Lu January saw Xu Miao Miao again. She was already carrying a big belly and clinging to a man who smelled of sweat.
Lu January froze in place, shock and guilt unable to move her forward, but Xu Miao Miao looked up and saw Lu January, took the initiative to greet her and said, “January? Come and sit down.”
Lu January held back the tears that were creeping up in her eyes, pulled up a smile, walked over, and said, “Are you pregnant?”
Xu Miaomiao lowered her head and touched her stomach, this gentle look appeared in Lu January’s mind for the first time.
Xu Miao Miao smiled, her eyes full of happiness, and said, “Five months now.”
Lu January reached out and touched it, as if she was electrocuted, she retracted her hand and said, “How amazing.”
Xu Miaomiao’s eyes were narrowed with a smile, and she reached out to take Lu January’s hand and put it on her belly, saying, “Sometimes, he even kicks!”
Lu January looked at the current Xu Miao Miao, tears flowed down, hurriedly lowered his head to cover his face, reached out to wipe clean, before looking up at Xu Miao Miao, said: “Look at you now, I am relieved.”
The man sitting next to Xu Miao Miao – Tan Yiwei – was very sensible and put away the dishes, saying, “You guys talk, I’ll go greet the other guests.”
At Xu Miao Miao’s invitation, Lu January shyly sat down, picked up his chopsticks, but didn’t know what to eat.
While eating, Xu Miao Miao gave Lu January a dish and said, “Originally, I heard Fu Minghao say what you love to eat, and over time, I remembered it all, and he still recites it.”
Lu January picked at the rice in her bowl and lowered her head without saying a word, her mood was very complicated. Xu Miao Miao smiled gently and said, “I’m already married, so let’s let bygones be bygones.”
Listen to the sound of the hot pot boiling, watching the hot pot spitting out a few mist, Lu January looked at the opposite Xu Miao Miao, this moment, in her body saw the traces of the years.
Calming herself down, Lu January smiled slightly and said, “Are you happy?”
Xu Miao Miao paused for a long time and said, “January, do you believe in love?”
Lu January nodded woodenly.
Xu Miao Miao smiled somewhat self-deprecatingly and said, “It’s also true, after all, in your life, you came together with your first love, and I no longer have the means to believe in it, now I, too, am quite well, my husband loves me very much.”
Lu January put down the chopsticks in his hand and said, “Miao Miao, back then ……”
Xu Miao Miao said while adding vegetables to the pot, “January, what happened back then, don’t mention it again.”
Looking at Xu Miao Miao, who had been touched by the sadness, Lu January held back and stopped talking, put on her bag and was about to say goodbye when Xu Miao Miao spoke up and said, “He’s back, isn’t he?”
Lu January nodded, looked at Xu Miao Miao and said, “You still can’t forgive him?”
Xu Miao Miao, who was holding her chopsticks tightly, closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and said, “Forgive? After all, what happened back then was also my own making.”
“Lu January!” Peng Yu’s voice came over with some irritation.
Lu January turned around and looked at Peng Yu who came over aggressively, a little surprised and said, “Why did you come over, didn’t you go to the garage to drive?”
Peng Yu helpless face, said: “I’ve been waiting for you down there for more than an hour, and, Yu Pei Qian called me, said you do not answer the phone, what’s wrong with you?”
Xu Miao Miao got up with difficulty and said, “It seems that January is here with me, too long delayed, you have something to do, go busy.”
Lu January looked at Xu Miao Miao with embarrassment and said, “Miao Miao sorry ah, I’ll come next time, bring some gifts for the baby, today I’ll leave first.”
Peng Yu went straight up and took Lu January’s hand and said, “Don’t mind other people’s business, it’s been a few years, why can’t you listen to it! Hurry up, Yu Pei Qian has already arrived at the airport.”
Lu January hurriedly followed Peng Yu’s pace and said, “She’s not just trying to fix Gu Lin Ye, why do we both have to go too?”
Looking at the two people walking out the door, Xu Miaomiao rubbed her stomach and smiled, revealing a sadness. Tan Yiwei came over and held Xu Miaomiao, saying, “Are they both your friends?”
Xu Miao Miao nodded, eyes a little wet, said, “is my high school years, the most envious of people.”
Sometimes, knowing how to let go at the right time early may not be a good thing for us. Xu Miaomiao although understand a little later, but also have a good result. But Elaine ……
Accepted to the class private change of seats, the class teacher in the class meeting, a serious face said, “I heard that everyone is not very satisfied with the seats in the class, how about this, we also do not follow the original rules, draw lots to decide where to sit, agree?”
Seeing that no one objected, the teacher took out the prepared number box and said, “According to the results, draw one by one.”
Seeing that Peng Yu was still at the same table as Gu Lin Ye, Lu January breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at his own number, and Yu Pei Qian’s, and said, “Qian Qian, it looks like we’re going to be separated.”
Yu Peiqian nodded helplessly and said, “No way, but okay, you sit in front of me, turn a head thing well.”
After packing up our school bags, Yu Peiqian and I moved our positions and moved to our new seats, and were curiously thinking about who was at the same table, when Elin came over, then put down her school bag and sat down.
When Yu Peiqian saw it, she looked shocked and said, “A narrow escape!”
Elaine pretended not to hear and packed her things, even her eyes revealed that she did not care. Yu Peiqian rolled her eyes, pulled Lu January’s arm and said, “January, don’t be afraid, I’m here, see what she dares to do!”
When the class ended, Lu January got up and walked to Peng Yu’s side, saying, “Come out with me.”
Peng Yu put down the pen in his hand, obediently got up and followed Lu January. Standing in the corridor, Lu January stared at him discontentedly and said, “Look at what you’ve done, how embarrassing it is for me now.”
Peng Yu thought about it and said, “How about I scold her.”
Lu January frowned and said, “Why do you scold people, forget it, I’ll do it myself.”
Peng Yu laughed, flicked Lu January’s forehead and said, “As long as you don’t get angry, whatever you want.” By the way, this weekend, my mom wants to see you.
Lu January blinked his glasses and said, “Why?”
Peng Yu squinted his eyes and said, “A mother-in-law seeing her daughter-in-law, there is no reason.”
With a sigh, Lu January dragged Peng Yu back to the class, and while walking, muttered, “Why did I find such a person, who only finds things for me all day long.”
Yilin heard the conversation between the two at a corner, and waited until they were back in class before Yilin finally entered the class.
Soon, the weekend arrived, and early in the morning Peng Yu was waiting downstairs for Lu January, who hopped downstairs, with Lu’s mother behind her shouting, “Remember to buy fruit on the way.”
Downstairs, Peng Yu had already prepared a fruit basket and a gift box, and Lu January giggled and said, “That’s great.”
Auntie Qin was still warm and welcoming as usual. Not long after she entered, the doorbell rang and Auntie Qin was cooking, while Peng Yu was playing.
Lu January stood up and said, “Let me open the door.” For a moment the smile froze, and outside the door stood Elaine.
