Yishi Yijia - Chapter 37
Lu Yining didn’t expect that Tang Mubai could see at a glance that the other party was younger than her, but she didn’t think much about it. After all, from this photo, the boy’s appearance was indeed very young, not immature, but he felt full of youth. Full.
Just like Tang Mubai six or seven years ago, or even worse than him.
So Lu Yining simply followed his words and continued.
After she finished speaking, she watched the man in front of her frown at a speed visible to the naked eye, and she felt at ease like never before.
Lu Yining took back the phone, “Is there anything else?”
Tang Mubai didn’t answer, but instead asked, “What do you mean by good physical strength?”
“literal meaning.”
Boys in their twenties and thirties are definitely in better health than old men in their seventies and eighties. Isn’t this a well-known fact?
Tang Mubai’s eyes darkened, and the corner of his mouth twitched, but he didn’t speak again.
After ten o’clock, the evening wind became colder and colder. Without the cover of the coat, every ray of wind easily penetrated her thin clothes and dipped straight into the bone marrow.
Lu Yining stood up straight, her shoulders were stiff and numb from the wind, she resisted the urge to reach out and hug her shoulders, and let out a light breath, “I’ll go back first if I’m fine.”
Tang Mubai still looked at her deeply, but didn’t speak.
Lu Yining waited for two seconds. Seeing that he didn’t move, he turned around and entered the Lu family’s yard. With a bang, the black lacquered iron door was swept by the wind.
She walked very fast, opened the door in a few seconds, then entered the room without looking back, and closed the door again.
Lu Xinrong just came out of the bathroom, spread out on the sofa and glanced at her: “Why did you go for so long?”
“I waited outside with Mr. Fu for a while for the bus.”
Lu Yining poured a cup of hot water and placed it on the coffee table in front of Lu Xinrong.
Sure enough, the pain is usually not in vain, the little niece is caring, like a little padded jacket.
Lu Xinrong adjusted her posture, took a sip of water with a cup of water, and then looked over with a smile: “Xiao Yi, your Aunt Fu has a son who is about the same age as you.”
Lu Yining had already guessed what she was going to say.
She stood up, “Auntie, don’t think about it, it’s impossible for me and him.”
“You child, I haven’t said anything yet…”
Lu Xinrong said “hey”, “Why is it impossible?”
As soon as he finished speaking, the door was pushed open. Lu Jingxing, who was still standing at the entrance and did not come in, heard this and asked, “What’s impossible?”
Lu Xinrong drank half a glass of water and repeated what she just said.
Lu Jingxing raised his eyebrows, looked at Lu Yi Ning, neither of them said a word, they went upstairs together, and then went back to their respective rooms.
Lu Xinrong had met Tang Mubai, but not many times.
The young man is clean and handsome, tall and long with long legs, his eyes are like peach blossoms, and he is very attractive to look at.
At first sight, Lu Xinrong thought that this child was good, and she paid attention to it for a while.
On the left is his own mother, on the right is his good brother, Lu Jingxing couldn’t see it, but Lu Yining was still abroad at the time, so he didn’t care too much.
After all, Tang Mubai graduated from a major domestic university and now works in a large hospital. He has a successful career at a young age, and with a good skin, he has become the prey chosen by the surrounding mothers for their children.
It is not surprising that Lu Xinrong would have this idea.
Unfortunately, she had never seen Tang Mubai before.
Lu Jingxing didn’t reveal his brother’s short habit, not to mention that even if he did, Lu Xinrong might not believe it, and he might even slap his elbows out and say that he was jealous.
People like Lu Jingxing would never do thankless things.
A few minutes after arriving in the room, he folded out again and knocked on the door of the next room.
Soon, the door was opened.
Lu Yining had just washed her face, her hair was soaked with water, and the fingers of both hands were gently circling around her eyes, “What are you doing, brother?”
The brothers and sisters have met quite a few times in the past few years, so they are not unfamiliar at all.
Lu Jingxing didn’t enter the room, but stood at the door and asked her, “Does my mother want to introduce Xiaobai to you?”
“Listening to her, it seems that she has that idea.”
“what do you think?”
“I don’t think so much…”
Lu Yining turned around, squeezed water and patted her face, “It’s impossible for the two of us.”
Lu Yining was so sure, but Lu Jingxing didn’t know what to say.
Although he couldn’t see what Tang Mubai did a few years ago, in all fairness, he has indeed restrained a lot recently. Probably because a previous relationship was dumped, this arrogant young master was stimulated, but he also I don’t talk about girlfriends like I used to.
Lu Xinrong wanted to connect the two of them, but to be honest, it was not impossible.
This thought just popped up in his head, but was quickly suppressed by Lu Jingxing, who had calmed down.
It’s not enough to be restrained, he has a black history, and he is still not worthy of his perfect sister.
Lu Jingxing rubbed her hair, and when it came to his mouth, he changed his words: “Well, you know it’s impossible.”
Lu Jingxing came over, as if to remind her of this.
After the goal was achieved, he quickly returned to his room to deal with the work.
Lu Yining closed the door and lowered her head. She seemed to be able to smell the outsider on the man’s coat that was stained on her body. She wrinkled her nose and went to the bathroom to take her second shower today.
At the same time, Tang Mubai and Fu Yun had just returned home.
Fu Yun was still chatting with his card friend Lu Xinrong on WeChat. Most people of their age didn’t like to type, and the voice messages were sent over and over again with a “huh”. It was obvious that the chat was very lively.
Tang Mubai didn’t ask any further questions, went upstairs and went back to his room. He threw his coat on the bed and walked into the bathroom.
Twenty minutes later, he came out of the bathroom in his bathrobe.
After a busy afternoon and evening, I finally felt a lot more comfortable after taking a shower.
Tang Mubai was not on duty today, but there was an operation in the afternoon, which lasted six or seven hours.
It wasn’t a major operation, the main reason was that the patient’s blood pressure was not stable, so the process was very careful, and he didn’t come out of the operating room until after nine o’clock in the evening.
Tang Mubai knew today that Fu Yun was going to play cards at Lu’s house, so even though he was a little tired after get off work, he didn’t call the driver and drove over to pick him up.
He expected to meet Lu Yining.
Tang Mubai wiped his hair to half dry, then put the towel aside, unlocked his phone, opened WeChat, looked up a name from the contacts, and typed a few words: [You are quite capable. 】
The jet lag problem, it’s still daytime over there, so the news came back very quickly: [? 】
Ancestor: [What happened to me? 】
Tang Mubai: [Are you physically strong? 】
Ancestor: [Alright. 】
Okay?
He still has the face to say okay? !
Tang Mubai sneered: [Haha. 】
This person had intermittent convulsions, and the person on the other side didn’t take it seriously. After a while, he asked: “Who said you can’t do it?” 】
Because no other modifiers are added, this question is very ambiguous.
Tang Mubai: [What are you dreaming about? 】
It seemed that he was afraid that the people over there would not believe it, so to emphasize it, he added: [I have done a good job. 】
There was no more news from the other end, so Tang Mubai didn’t say anything else. He pressed the power button and put the phone on the bedside table.
The “ancestor” named Tang Yu is the youngest ancestor of the Tang family and his nephew.
Tang Mubai has an older sister, who is more than a year older than him. When Fu Yun was born to Tang Mubai, he was regarded as a model of old children in Tang’s father’s circle. When he was a child, he was often taken out by his parents. being watched by others.
When he was young, he was much more lovable than he is now, because he was too good-looking. At that time, many people had the idea of having a second child and a son.
Tang Mubai grew up surrounded by others, and when she was a few years older, her sister got married and had children.
The Tang family was rich and powerful, but they couldn’t resist the non-human being married to their daughter, who was ruined half of their life by a scumbag.
When Tang Mubai was in high school, his sister fell ill and died, and that scumbag was still spending time outside like a normal person.
After all, he was the older sister who spoiled him since he was a child, and this matter had a great impact on Tang Mubai, because he was often called scumbag because of the girlfriends he had made, and he didn’t have too many promiscuous girlfriends later.
Although Tang Mubai never felt that his behavior was scum.
After all, it is a transaction that everyone takes what they need. It is also a skill to be able to trick others into writing homework for him by selling his color.
The only time Tang Mubai felt that he was scum was because of Lu Yining, the first birthday with her when he was with her.
Lu Jingxing didn’t know that they were together, so there was no so-called two-person world at the birthday party at that time, and there was no cacophony. Except for Lu Yining’s roommates and friends, there were only Lu Jingxing and a few boys who were familiar with her and played well. exist.
It was a cloudy day, and the air at night was sultry before the wind and rain came.
The group didn’t go to places like ktv, and just had a birthday party at the Lu family’s villa.
Although there are not too many people, it is still lively.
There was music playing in the living room, as well as the colorful lights that Xie Kun got from ktv. I ordered a bunch of take-out barbecues, and empty cans filled several trash cans. The atmosphere was like Like a disco.
Tang Mubai couldn’t say that he hated it, but he definitely didn’t like it either.
He sat on the sofa in the corner and watched Lu Yingying rubbed the cream on his face by a very good friend, then ran to the bathroom to wash the cream and jam on his hands.
Everyone was infected by this lively atmosphere, and no one noticed him.
Tang Mubai sat for half a minute, then got up and followed.
The door of the bathroom was not closed, leaving a gap, and there was a very soft sound of water coming from it. Tang Mubai stood at the door and knocked on the door. When it was him, he breathed a sigh of relief: “Xiao Bai, why are you here?”
At that time, Lu Yining’s face was much richer than it is now, with bright eyes and a few cream marks on his face, looking a little embarrassed and unprepared.
But Tang Mubai only thought it was cute at the time.
He pushed the door in, and then closed the door of the bathroom with his backhand, giving a very casual reason: “It’s too noisy outside.”
Lu Yining said “Oh”, turned around again, lowered his head and continued to wash his hands.
Cream is not too difficult to wash on hands, there is no need to wash it now on the face, but the hands are different, it is not easy to wash it when it rubs on other people’s clothes.
Lu Yining put her hand under the faucet and ran it again. As soon as she washed her hands and wanted to dry the water on her hands with a towel, she was suddenly pressed on her shoulders and turned around.
Before she could react, the boy’s face was already close at hand, and then a few inches closer, their lips pressed together.
Lu Yining was stunned for a moment, and his eyelids trembled unconsciously.
Tang Mubai didn’t seem to drink much, because he didn’t eat cake much, and the taste in his mouth was not as spicy as alcohol and sweet as cream.
It was a clean kiss, just not very tender.
The boy’s kiss was obviously heavier than the previous few times. After crushing her lips heavily, he stuck out his tongue and licked the cream on the corner of her mouth.
Tang Mubai has many problems. He doesn’t smoke or drink, and he doesn’t like sweets, so the cream on the corner of Lu Yining’s mouth seems to be different from the cake he frowned after just one bite.
The short skirt that Lu Yining wore that day, the skirt was above the knee, her legs were very long and straight, white and thin looming under the skirt.
Tang Mubai glanced over, his eyes were inexplicably warm, and he had only one thought at the time—
Lu Yining must be much better than the cream cake.
Tang Mubai’s hand on her waist fell unconsciously, and as soon as it touched her skirt, there was a knock on the bathroom door.
Lu Jingxing’s voice came from outside the door very out of time: “Yi Ning, are you okay? Jiang Nai asked you to go out and sing.”
Tang Mubai calmed down instantly as if someone had poured a basin of cold water on him.
The two people just like forming a conditioned reflex, one lowered his head, the other released his hand, and separated some distance extremely quickly.
Lu Yining’s breathing was unsteady, she turned the faucet to the maximum, “come soon.”
Lu Jingxing obviously didn’t know that there was another person inside, so he went back not long after calling him.
Lu Yining waited for a few minutes, and then slipped out cautiously like a thief when there was no one outside the door.
Tang Mubai was in no hurry to go out. As soon as the bathroom door was closed, he washed his face and looked up at himself in the mirror. For the first time, he felt that he was really scum.
What a scum.
At the beginning, I promised Lu Jingxing a good promise. Even if Lu Yining confessed to him, I couldn’t promise her, but now?
Not only did he agree, but just now he almost committed an unruly beast to her.
Fortunately, no one knows about this.
No one will ever know.
Including Lu Yining, she just thought it was a simple and pure kiss.
—
After the May Day holiday, Lu Yining started to go to work normally.
The magazine office clocks in at 8:00 in the morning and leaves at 5:30 in the afternoon.
A few days before joining the company, Lu Yining had nothing to do, except to get acquainted with the working environment, that is, to get to know the colleagues in the group.
The group she belongs to is the natural ecology group in the north of the country. As the name suggests, the photos about the humanities and the south are not under their control. If nothing else, the scope of their photos is limited to the north and landscapes.
There are eight people in the group, five men and three women. One of the girls is an intern who has just graduated from a bachelor’s degree, and another is the same age as her, who has just been a full-time worker for a year.
Lu Yining is different. Although he has only been working for the first year, he has won many awards after graduating from prestigious schools, so he is a regular worker as soon as he joins the job, and the basic salary is not low.
The younger one didn’t feel anything at all, but the female colleague her age was obviously not balanced, and she was a bit yin and yang when talking to her these days.
But this is only in private, when a boss like the editor-in-chief or deputy editor comes over, she acts like a caring and patient senior.
Lu Yining didn’t care about her either. The two were not in the same office. Anyway, no matter how strange she was, she couldn’t affect her.
After such a peaceful week, Lu Yining quickly familiarized herself with the operating mechanism of the magazine. When she was sitting in front of the computer editing a film on Friday afternoon, the screen of her mobile phone lit up.
It was Jiang Nai’s text message: [Ning Ning, I’m off work tomorrow, go out shopping together? 】
Lu Yining just remembered that she and Jiang Nai had not met since returning to China.
After graduating from university, the two were not in the same place, and neither of them was so free, so in the past few years, they mainly relied on WeChat chat to maintain their relationship.
However, friendship has a long shelf life. Although they often do not meet each other, they will still tell each other if they have anything.
For example, Lu Yining knew that Jiang Nai had frequently kissed several times during this period.
For another example, she also knew that among the few people who had a blind date with Jiang Nai, none of them liked her.
Magazines are no better than news newspapers. News is published every three days, even during holidays.
It is relatively easy to do photography. In addition to the need to travel around and travel frequently, there are many holidays in normal times, and Saturdays and Sundays are also closed as usual.
Lu Yining didn’t hesitate, and quickly responded.
The next day, Lu Yining didn’t get up until after ten o’clock.
The day before, a photo was repaired by the intern in the same group. The color was too dark, and the feathering coefficient was a little messy. After the repair, the whole photo looked a little dirty. The little girl sighed at the computer for a long time. , Seeing that he was about to cry, Lu Yining took over the job.
It’s not that she hasn’t encountered this kind of thing before. It’s common for them to repair bad pictures in this business. It’s not a big problem.
There is no doubt that the car accident in the photo of the little girl has reached the level of restoration.
Lu Yining tossed until after one o’clock in the morning, and it was almost two o’clock when he took a shower and went to bed.
So the original alarm at eight in the morning was turned off by her as soon as it rang.
After Lu Yining woke up, she remembered that she had an appointment with Jiang Nai today. When she saw the time, she felt that it was a bad thing, so she quickly sent a message to Jiang Nai while putting on her clothes: [Nana, unfortunately to tell you… I just got up. 】
Jiang Nai’s message came quickly: [I’m lucky to tell you… me too. 】
The two breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, and the meeting time was changed from nine in the morning to two in the afternoon.
Lu Yining put on make-up after washing up, changed clothes, and drove out.
She arrived a while earlier than Jiang Nai, and while waiting for her at the cafe on the first floor of the mall, she checked the circle of friends by the way.
Lu Yining changed her phone number a few times, but she didn’t change her WeChat account. There were a few more contacts and a few fewer contacts. She swiped and swiped and suddenly remembered something. She found a contact and sent him a message: [Xiaoyu, I accidentally used you a few days ago. 】
Lu Yining: [But there’s no problem, you don’t know each other anyway…Wait, I’ll ask again, you really don’t have a brother, right? 】
Tang Yu: [No. 】
Another sentence, he did not send: I have an uncle, dear.
