Running Snail - Chapter 43

Lu Shuang’s face sank, and he quickly answered the phone.

Unexpectedly, a soft female voice came from the other end of the phone: “Nan Nanzhu, why haven’t you answered the phone for so long? You won’t fall asleep again?”

He was relieved because it was not Xu Zhiheng’s call, and Lu Shuang cocked the corners of his mouth and smiled slightly, “Is it Xiao Qing? Hello.”

The other end was stunned, and after a long time he smiled: “Nan Nanzhu, don’t hold your throat and pretend to be a man, the voice is so awful.”

Lu Shuang touched his nose: “Is it hard to hear? I think my voice is pretty good.”

After a long silence, Xiao Qing trembled: “You… are you?”

Lu Shuang chuckled, “Well, I’m Lu Shuang, Wei Nan’s friend, I saw it at the last party.”

“Oh… then why is her mobile phone with you?”

“As you might expect, she slept like a dead pig, so I had to answer the phone for her.”

Xiao Qing was silent for a long time, and she trembled: “Nan Nan…I am so open-minded…have you been living together so soon?”

Lu Shuang smiled, did not explain, and changed the subject: “Do you have an urgent matter on the phone? I’ll tell her for you.”

“Well, then tell her that I will get married next month. If she has time, come over and be my bridesmaid.”

“…Getting married?” Lu Shuang was startled.

Xiao Qing smiled and said lightly: “Yes, get married.”

After hanging up the phone, Lu Shuang put the phone back to Wei Nan’s pillow, but his brows became more frowning.

Xiao Qing couldn’t hear any fluctuations in her voice, and because of this, Lu Shuang felt even more strange. It stands to reason that with such a big event as marriage, you should at least get excited when you call? But Xiao Qing seemed to be saying “I want to eat rice”, with a plain and unrelated attitude.

——Isn’t she the one who had an accident?

Lu Shuang sighed, and whispered to Wei Nan who was sleeping in bed, “You have too many sisters, so it’s really troublesome.”

Although complaining, but turning around, he still had to work hard to help her with these trivial matters. Lu Shuangzhen felt that he should be a “love fairy” brand, put it on his chest, and then go parade and accept everyone’s admiration.

After arriving in the bedroom, Lu Shuang logged into QQ and contacted Zhou Fang. At the cost of a barbecue, he got Xiao Fan’s number from Zhou Fang, who was so skinny and faceless. After dialing the phone, a very freezing male voice came in his ear: “Hello, who is it?”

Lu Shuang said solemnly: “Lawyer Xiao? I’m Lu Shuang, I want to talk to you in an emergency.”

“Sorry, it’s not my working time. I’m sorry if I haven’t taken the case recently.” The man spoke coldly, and he really deserves the title of an iron iceberg in the lawyer industry.

Lu Shuang smiled slightly and said, “It’s about your cousin, Xiao Qing.”

When he arrived at the agreed coffee shop, Lu Shuang saw a man sitting in the corner with a cold face, frowning and shaking the cup in his hand.

Lu Shuang walked over to him and greeted him politely: “Sorry, there is a traffic jam on the road.”

Xiao Fan raised his head, turned his cold eyes around Lu Doubles, and said, “Let’s get to the point. What’s wrong with my sister Xiao Qing?”

Lu Shuang smiled and sat down and spoke politely: “Xiao Qing asked my friend to go abroad to be her bridesmaid. I want to ask some details about the wedding so that I can prepare in advance.”

“Wedding?” Xiao Fan frowned, “What wedding?”

Lu Shuang wondered: “Xiao Qing is getting married, don’t you know?”

Xiao Fan frowned even more tightly. “She rarely contacted me after she went abroad. She only said she was busy studying, but I don’t know the details.”

Lu Shuang laughed, “Is that how you behaved as her brother?”

Xiao Fan frowned displeasedly: “How can I be a elder brother? It seems that you don’t need to ask me?”

Lu Shuang shrugged, “Well, let you have the throne of the world’s first bad brother.”

Xiao Fan glanced at Lu Shuang, dialed the phone, and said with a cold face: “Xiao Qing, who are you going to marry? Shen what? You can’t tell the difference between Jun Ze and Jun?” Xiao Fan turned around. He rolled his eyes and started scolding his sister: “You don’t even remember your name, so you marry? You want to marry someone crazy, right? You just graduated from college, isn’t it too early to marry at the age of 21? Do you think Married? Married voluntarily? Very good.” Xiao Fan hung up the phone with a click, and Xiao Fan looked at the opposite side with a calm face and found that Lu Shuang was touching his nose and smiling meaningfully.

Xiao Fan raised his eyebrows: “Is it funny?”

Lu Shuang shook his head, pretending to be helpless: “I just think that having a younger sister is quite interesting…”

Xiao Fan glanced at him lightly, got up and said, “I’m missing, I’ll go home first to find out the whole story.”

Seeing his disappearing back, Lu Shuang smiled and touched his nose. It seemed that when his elder brother cared about his sister, although the way of caring was slightly different, when Lu Dan married in the future, he would be the brother-in-law.

After I went back, I turned on the computer and found the old bottom of the Xiao family smoothly. By the way, I found out the background of Shen Junze. Looking at the row of data on the computer screen, Lu Shuang reluctantly pressed his temple.

The two sisters Wei Nan are really not easy. A Qi Juan, who had never had a father since she was a child, didn’t say anything, and her mother also left. She is still half-dead lying in the hospital, wrapped in a mummy. Another Xiao Qing has a very complicated family background. Her grandfather is a business celebrity. Before he died, he divided the family property between his two sons. Xiao Qing’s father had been in the real estate business. Recently, the Xiao family almost went bankrupt because of business problems. The young master of the family took advantage of the vacancy and swallowed part of Xiao Qing’s father’s shares, and even Xiao Qing swallowed it by the way-it was shameless.

Wei Nan values ​​the sisterhood of the three people so much. Qi Juan has been exhausted in a car accident. In addition, Xiao Qing is suddenly getting married, so it is only strange that she does not collapse.

Lu Shuang smiled slightly, and said to the sleeping Wei Nan: “I will share some for you first, and you will remember my great kindness in the future.”

Life flies quickly.

Qi Juan’s injury gradually improved.

Because of her chest pain, Qi Juan couldn’t do too much exercise and could only watch TV in the ward. Qi Juan felt that TV was too boring, so she asked Wei Nan to bring the computer. After leaving the house, Lu Shuang leaned into Wei Nan’s ear and whispered, “You really feel relieved to bring her computer over and let her watch violent movies? What if she gets excited and goes crazy and tears the bandage on her chest?” It’s not that Lu Shuang thought too much. He was really impressed by Qi Juan, who was mad that day when she was in a violent state and beat her in the chest. Wei Nan also thought of the scene that day, and couldn’t help shivering. On Lu Shuang’s suggestion, she was taken first. Some of the contents of Disk F were moved out, and a few milder cartoons were played.

After the computer was brought, Qi Juan sat on the bed and bit an apple while watching the cartoon “Detective Conan”. Every time Conan solved the case, she rolled her eyes and took a bite of the apple, saying “so childish” while continuing. Watch the next episode intently.

Although Qi Juan was nicknamed “Lioness”, Lu Shuang felt that perhaps “Lioness” would also have a cute and innocent side… right?

About Xiao Qing’s marriage, Lu Shuang didn’t tell Wei Qi for the time being, he was afraid that Wei Nan would collapse under too much pressure, and he was afraid that Qi Juan would be excited and violent.

After negotiating with Xiao Fan several times in private, he finally learned that Xiao Qing’s marriage was not forced by his family, it was really voluntary. The man’s conditions were good. Lu Shuang breathed a sigh of relief and set out to help Wei Nan go abroad with visa procedures. Come.

This morning, after Wei Nan got up, he suddenly received a call from Xiao Qing.

Just a few simple sentences: “Nan Nan, you remember to call Qi Juan over, I have not been able to get through her cell phone, I have asked him, and two bridesmaids are fine.” After speaking, he hung up. Wei Nan, who had just woke up, was confused, rubbed his eyes, and muttered: “What messy dream, if the preface doesn’t follow the sentence, the bridesmaid.” Then he fell asleep again.

Lu Shuang came into the bedroom and pulled her out of the bed, “Go and wash your face, I’m going to be late.”

Wei Nan stiffened, “You… why don’t you knock on the door when you enter the girls’ bedroom?!”

Lu Shuang raised his eyebrows: “If knocking on the door can wake you up, I would be happy to knock a hundred times.”

Wei Nan blushed, and quickly got up from the bed in a desperate manner, and quickly ran to the bathroom to wash his face. The speed was as if his **** was burned by fire.

Lu Shuang glanced at the phone under the blanket, where there was a record of Xiao Qing’s call.

Halfway through breakfast, Lu Shuangcai said softly, “I have something to tell you.”

Seeing his serious look, Wei Nan was afraid that he would confess again and say something that makes his scalp numb, so he hurriedly lowered his head to bite the bread and pretended to be an ostrich, “Well, it’s time for dinner… put aside other topics first.”

As a result, Lu Shuang put it aside, but Xiao Qing persevered and called again.

When Wei Nan answered the phone, the bread in his mouth had just swallowed. When he talked over there, Wei Nan choked. Looking at Lu Shuang with wide eyes, Lu Shuang couldn’t help laughing because of the “extreme” appearance. He hurriedly handed her saliva and whispered, “Don’t get excited, I’ll take a picture of you.” She really took out her mobile phone and snapped a photo of Wei Nan’s decayed speechlessness.

Wei Nanbai glanced at him, took a sip of the water, and coughed violently. Then he straightened out his breathing, and said excitedly: “Xiao Qing! You dead man finally remembered to contact me? Suddenly calling him I thought you were cheating on a corpse.” Before the excitement was fully revealed, Wei Nan’s smile suddenly froze on his face, then his face sank, and his brows became more and more frowning: “Married?”

Lu Shuang looked at Wei Nan with some worry, only to see Wei Nan suddenly jumped up when he patted the table, “What are you getting married?! You are only 21 years old, are you still studying? Oh, your dad asked you to marry You just married? Why didn’t your dad marry yourself?!” Wei Nan seemed to hang up the phone there, and Wei Nan sat down angrily, slammed the phone on the table, glared at Lu Shuang who was touching his nose, and said angrily:” The dead girl dared to hang up my phone!”

Lu Shuang coughed slightly, “What I want to tell you is that Xiao Qing is going to get married.”

Wei Nan patted the table again, widened his eyes, and glared at Lu Shuang: “What did you say?!”

Lu Shuang had expected her to react like this a long time ago. It is said that she once broke a dining room table when she was extremely angry, and lost money. It was widely praised by T college students, and Nan Nan didn’t do it when she was very angry. Losing Qijuan… Lu Shuang touched his nose and said helplessly: “Xiao Qing called early and said that she would get married next month.”

“Then why didn’t you tell me and you deliberately kept it secret?!” Wei Nan glared at Lu Shuang.

Lu Shuang was silent for a long time before he smiled slightly: “At that time, Qi Juan had just been in a car accident. You guarded her in the hospital for two days and one night. When you went home, you slept like a dead pig. I didn’t dare to wake you up.”

Wei Nan’s momentum suddenly weakened, and he lowered his head and muttered, “Then… later?”

Lu Shuang’s voice was still gentle: “Later, you were going to take the exam, and you were busy taking care of Qi Juan all day. I’m afraid you are under too much pressure, so I will keep it from you.”

“I finished the exam last week.”

“After the exam, you help Qi Juan’s mother to handle the funeral. Watching you cry at the grave, I can’t bear to say it.” Lu Shuang paused and said softly: “I have contacted Xiao Qing several times. She did marry voluntarily. Human, the man’s name is Shen Junze, and he’s not bad. Don’t worry, the visa will be released in a few days, and then go abroad to see her.”

Wei Nan sat back in silence, but Lu Shuang did not speak any more.

After a long time, Wei Nan asked softly: “You helped to get the visa?”

Lu Shuang nodded, “Well, my friend from the university helped me.”

Wei Nan lowered his head slightly, not daring to look at his serious eyes again.

Suddenly I felt that I was unforgivable for being angry at him in a very bad mood.

Obviously knowing that he is doing it for his own good, knowing that he silently endured so much and paid so much behind his back, but still couldn’t help yelling at him and lost his temper at him. Xin An is using his gentle self, is it despicable to be incurable?

When Qi Juan had an accident, Wei Nan couldn’t imagine how hard she would have been without him. In the end, even the hospitalization fee was borrowed from his friends. He even helped Qi Juan’s mother’s grave. He was always there when I was crying.

Perhaps because he has been with him for a long time, Wei Nan felt that no matter what happened, he would stay with him and never leave. So when I want to cry loudly, share my joy, or vent my anger, the first thing that comes to my mind is him—because he has never left.

It is precisely because of this that I will gradually become accustomed to nature.

“Lu Shuang…I’m sorry, I shouldn’t lose my temper at you.” Wei Nan said softly.

Lu Shuang laughed, the curvature of the corners of his mouth was still so familiar, he looked unrestrained, and his words were still awkward: “It’s okay, I’m honored to be your punching bag, in fact, I look forward to you coming and punching me. I punched twice.”

Wei Nan looked at him with a narrow smile, not knowing whether he should rush to and beat him or beat himself.

Lu Shuang suddenly said, “Actually, you have never shown your true side in front of Xu Zhiheng, and you have never dared to lose your temper at him, right?”

Wei Nan was silent.

“Because… he is your dream, right?”

Wei Nan suddenly felt sore in his eyes.

She knew it was a dream.

That beautiful dream has been deeply buried in my heart since I was young. She knew very well that the time in her dream was always short and would never have an end, so at the beginning of the dream, she tried her best to cherish it.

Always show the best side in front of Xu Zhiheng, dare not say when there is suffering, dare not express when I am angry, every time I date with him, I have to dress up in the mirror, and always face him with a smile and stay with him. Every day of my visit is regarded as the last day. I hope that every second is happy. Then after waking up from the dream, I can have the longest, most beautiful and most precious memories.

He never dared to show his true self to him, and he never lost his temper in front of him, always smiling gently-does it mean that everything is beautiful because both of them are pretending?

At this moment, Lu Shuang said, like thunder in a sunny day, Wei Nan was so startled that Wei Nan was speechless for a long time.

It turns out that the dedication to Xu Zhiheng for so long was only because that was an unrealizable dream.

It turns out that the so-called love for him can’t even share the joy and pain together.

How much do they know about each other and how much can they do for each other? That relationship is more like a castle in the sky built together, beautiful but fragile. What if the family members oppose it? What if the background is unbearable? We are living our own lives. Why do we use so many excuses to escape? We don’t even have the courage to take a step and try?

Did he know early on that the two of them couldn’t do it for a long time regardless of their personalities or lifestyles, so they tried their best to cherish the time of that month and left a beautiful memory unforgettable.

Then he completed the task and turned around and left.

Does it mean that having that memory is actually enough?

Wei Nan was silent for a long time, and finally smiled slightly under Lu Shuang’s gentle gaze.

“I know how to do it, thank you for your reminder.”

Lu Shuang smiled slightly, and said: “What emotions you have can vent in front of me, but I am actually quite relieved. Because I like you who are so real. You don’t need to wear a mask in front of me.”

After that, there was no more words. Lu Shuang leaned over and patted Wei Nan’s shoulder lightly, “I’m hungry, go make some food.” Then he turned to the kitchen and started cooking ribs in an apron.

Wei Nan looked up and looked at his busy figure in the kitchen. He stared at him for a long time, and his eyes became a little bit sore. It wasn’t until the fragrance came that Wei Nan thought in a daze that Lu Shuang’s ribs were already so fragrant, even more fragrant than his mother’s. He probably, secretly, practiced many times.
