Chapter 395 Another Person Who Loves Lin Wanzhou
"My mom said she's waiting for me in the parking lot." Lin Wanzhou hung up the phone and said to Xu Cheng.
When Xu Cheng heard this, his face became even gloomier.
Just now I was still able to hope that Gao Manman didn't come to pick up Lin Wanzhou, and only Lin's father came. Now this last glimmer of fantasy has been shattered.
"Xu Cheng, where is your dad going to pick you up?"
“…Uh, that…”
Xu Cheng hesitated, causing Lin Wanzhou to glance at him strangely.
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing, I just have a stomachache. I want to go to the bathroom after I get off the bus. You can go back first."
"Why do you suddenly have a stomachache? Did you eat something bad?" Lin Wanzhou looked Xu Cheng up and down. "I'm not that anxious. I'll be fine after waiting for you for a while."
“…”
Xu Cheng was silent, and Lin Wanzhou thought of something.
"Are you afraid of running into my mother? You don't want to see her, so you're making excuses."
"What are you talking about?"
Xu Cheng was like someone who had been wronged, and he quickly emphasized, "Aunt Gao is so good to me, how could I hide from her? I will definitely visit her as soon as I get home."
"whispering sound--"
Lin Wanzhou glanced at him suspiciously, "Is this true?"
“Really, really.”
The train began to slow down slowly. As Xu Cheng spoke, he quickly put his hand behind Lin Wanzhou's head to protect her head.
These small details integrated into every corner of life are as natural as flowing water. His and her lives seem to be intertwined and fused, filling every gap of each other and breathing the sweet breath that is closely related to each other.
Lin Wanzhou rested her head lightly on her palm, feeling her own tender heartbeat again and again.
"You didn't meet him?"
"Yes."
"Does it hurt?"
“It hurts so much!”
The girl puffed her cheeks and said against her will .
She was carrying a heavy backpack, and the straps pulled down heavily on her smooth arms, so when she awkwardly raised her hands, it was difficult for her arms to rub her head.
Xu Cheng watched the scene with a smile and said nothing, but the meaning in his eyes was self-evident - look, without me, you little fool can't do anything well.
The lights in the carriage were reflected on the windows, and the glass reflected the two people's shadows faintly. As the train slowed down, the figures of the two people floated and jumped slightly under the influence of the light inside and outside the car.
The movement of Xu Cheng's palm changed from light support just now to gentle caressing on the back of the girl's head.
Her brown hair had a wonderful texture, and it felt like touching a strand of fine silk.
When Xu Cheng touched her head, Lin Wanzhou lowered her eyes, bit her lips, and enjoyed the great "beauty" she had gained by her small "lie."
She could hear the sound of Xu Cheng's palms rubbing gently against her hair, and felt an itchy, yet indescribable, wonderful feeling on the back of her head. She felt her whole body stretch out, and her throat inexplicably wanted to moan.
She held it back.
Lin Maomao cannot guarantee whether his call will be meow meow meow.
Of course, the greatest pleasure of patting the head is looking down at the girl shyly burying her head, which can give boys a great sense of accomplishment.
Girls may not be able to understand this strange enjoyment. After all, boys are always taller than girls, which makes it almost impossible for them to lower their heads to touch boys' heads.
But if you change this to lifting the boy's chin with your toes, then the girl should be able to understand the sense of accomplishment and satisfaction that the boy gets from touching his head.
"Dear passengers, the train has arrived at Jinghai East..."
The train stopped as the voice announcement was made.
At this time, the flight attendant, who had been patient for a long time, was finally able to drive the two away without beating around the bush.
"Those who want to get on the bus, please make way!"
"Get out of the car quickly!"
"Watch your step!"
The two of them came to the platform in a panic, dragging their suitcases.
Xu Cheng did not rush to follow the crowd to the exit. Instead, he closed his eyes and took an exaggeratedly deep breath.
“Ah, the taste of home.”
"Fool."
Lin Wanzhou muttered to himself and complained, then followed his example, closing his eyes and taking a deep breath.
Sniff.
This taste...
"Huh?"
She opened her eyes and found Xu Cheng's face in front of her.
He asked her with a wink.
"How about it?"
"……What?"
"I mean, how do I smell?"
"Yue! It stinks!"
Lin Wanzhou pushed him away exaggeratedly, and Xu Cheng quickly followed behind her.
After a period of struggle between conscience and desire, Xu Cheng finally accepted his fate.
It was obviously not appropriate to take a taxi or ask someone else to pick him up now. After all, his father had already told Lin Wanzhou's father to give him a ride.
So there is basically no excuse for not getting in the Lin family’s car.
Just be ruthless.
Sooner or later I have to face Gao Manman anyway. Escaping won't solve the problem, so I'll just .
After all, dragging it out is not a solution. A short pain is worse than a long one.
"Don't you need to go to the bathroom?"
"Not yet."
“???” Lin Wanzhou looked at Xu Cheng suspiciously.
The boy shrugged.
"You know, I'm very capable. I can hold it in until I get home."
Lin Wanzhou was stunned for three seconds before reacting immediately.
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Lin Wanzhou hurriedly clarified what she thought was Xu Cheng's biggest accusation, "What do you mean by strong? You're not strong at all. You're so weak, so weak!"
"???"
When checking tickets at the exit, Xu Cheng was about to throw the ticket in his hand into the trash can when Lin Wanzhou took it away.
"Why did you throw it away?"
"There's no point in keeping it."
"It would be great to keep it as a souvenir. I'm going to collect all the tickets we took to go to school and go home during the four years. When I look at them after graduation, they will definitely feel very special."
Xu Cheng listened to the girl's idea and thought it was really good.
Although they are just train tickets, they seem like a USB flash drive that stores memories and time. Each ticket that looks similar carries a different story.
Of course, it is also a record of their shared journey. When they are old, they can take out the train ticket and count the distance they have traveled together. They will have no regrets in their life because they have walked thousands of miles together.
Lin Wanzhou had no idea that Xu Cheng had already thought of what to name their grandson. She glanced around the crowd of people receiving guests and soon saw her parents.
"Dad, Mom!" She waved at them happily.
Xu Cheng's thoughts were pulled back. He glanced at the two familiar elders and waved politely like Lin Wanzhou.
"Dad...Uncle, Auntie !"
Dragging the suitcase over, Lin Wanzhou gave his mother a big hug first, and Xu Cheng could only stand beside him and smile foolishly.
Father Lin walked over with a smile and patted Xu Cheng on the shoulder.
"I haven't seen you for half a year, Xu Cheng. You've changed a lot. It feels like you've become an adult in an instant."
"It's okay..."
"You must have been tired from the ride. I've prepared some dishes at home, all of which are your aunt Gao's specialties. Let's go to your uncle's house and have dinner together." Father Lin's tone allowed no room for refusal.
Xu Cheng forced a smile on his face and nodded his head like a chicken pecking at rice.
"Okay, okay. I haven't tasted Aunt Gao's cooking for a long time."
"Come on, let's get in the car."
Father Lin bent down to pull over Lin Wanzhou's suitcase, and then went to take Lin Wanzhou's schoolbag. Unexpectedly, when he looked up, he found that his daughter's bag was already on Xu Cheng's back.
The old father felt mixed emotions for a while, but they were soon overcome by the joy of the family being reunited.
The car starts.
Xu Cheng sat in the passenger seat.
Father Lin is always busy while driving.
“Is it cold in Shanghai?”, “Is the food tasty?”, “How did you do on the final exam?”…
Xu Cheng answered Lin's father's series of questions honestly.
As for Lin Wanzhou, she sat in the back row, pulling her mother's arm and acting coquettishly.
Girls talk a lot. The young girl kept complaining to her mother about how tired she was from reviewing every day and how bad the food in the school cafeteria was.
Gao Manman listened with a smile, rubbing her daughter's head from time to time. The mother and daughter had a very happy chat.
But since meeting Xu Cheng just now, Gao Manman hasn't said a word to Xu Cheng.
This made Xu Cheng, who was sitting in the passenger seat, feel very uncomfortable.
He always felt that Gao Manman was staring at him from behind, which made him feel creepy.
Of course, when telling Lin's father about his grades in school, his scholarships, and his ranking in each subject, Xu Cheng couldn't help but puff out his chest and feel quite proud.
Look, the man who hooked up with your daughter is not a dishonest guy. He is as good as your daughter.
Gao Manman, who was sitting in the back row, finally spoke to Xu Cheng at this time.
"Xu Cheng, during the National Day holiday, I heard Zhou Zhou say that you have become the deputy director of the Student Affairs Department and are also the director of the Freshman Party. You are really amazing."
"Not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning." Xu Cheng scratched his head embarrassedly.
Gao Manman continued.
"I knew you were an excellent kid since you were young. You're also very independent. Look, you can go to college by yourself, and you can make a living even without your parents around."
“…”
Xu Cheng was sweating profusely after hearing this.
Fortunately, Gao Manman's attention was quickly diverted to Lin Wanzhou, which made him feel a little relieved.
Familiar neighborhood, familiar floor, familiar room.
After changing her shoes, Gao Manman went to the kitchen to busy herself. Lin's father went to help, and Xu Cheng followed Lin Wanzhou into her bedroom.
"Are you scared? Hehe." Lin Wanzhou locked the door and looked at Xu Cheng with a smile on his face. "Aren't you in a hurry to go to the toilet? Did you wet your pants?"
“…”
Xu Cheng looked at the arrogant little girl at this time and took two steps forward shamelessly.
"Then feel it yourself and see if there are any water stains."
"Go away, rascal."
The girl pushed him away, mumbling softly. Xu Cheng took the opportunity to pull her to sit on the bed and held Lin Wanzhou on his lap.
Anyway, she had just locked the door, so he wasn't too scared.
Lin Wanzhou resisted symbolically for a few times, and finally leaned on the chest of her childhood sweetheart.
"My mother just wanted to scare you. She's a mean girl, so she's definitely not mad at you."
After hearing this, Xu Cheng really thought it made sense. After all, Lin Wanzhou's little witch side was definitely inherited from Gao Manman.
Maybe both mother and daughter like to play tricks on others.
He lowered his head, leaned close to the girl's ear and whispered.
"Girl, I'm going to take revenge on you for all the injustices I suffered from your mother!"
When Lin Wanzhou heard this, she thought it was a weird play and kicked off her slippers in embarrassment.
"Then since you've taken revenge on me, don't be mad at her, okay?"
"snort."
Xu Cheng pretended to be very angry and tugged at the buttons on his chest.
"Then it depends on whether your performance can satisfy me."
“…”
The girl sat on his lap and thought for a while, then raised her smooth neck and gently pecked Xu Cheng on the cheek.
"Is this satisfactory?"
"Not enough, not enough."
Xu Cheng shook his head.
The girl then pecked Xu Cheng lightly on the other cheek.
"How about this?"
“No.”
Helpless, Lin Wanzhou had to close her eyes and pout.
After thinking about it, she felt very shy, so she opened her eyes, looked at Xu Cheng in front of her face, and covered his eyes with her other little hand. Only then was she satisfied. She closed her eyes again, leaned over and kissed Xu Cheng on the mouth, then asked in a low voice.
"Is this all right now?"
Feeling the lingering sweet and soft feeling on his lips, Xu Cheng still shook his head greedily.
"It's still a little bit off."
“…”
The girl thought for a few seconds, then her feet swung slightly and the slippers fell off her feet, revealing her tender little feet wrapped in small white socks.
She slowly raised it up, then tentatively rubbed Xu Cheng's calf twice with her toes.
Before he could ask, he sensed something was wrong with Xu Cheng. He stood up from Xu Cheng's legs in a flash, his face red and he didn't dare to look at him.
"This will surely work now!"
"Ahem, that's enough."
Xu Cheng answered while hunching over.
After all, we are still at Lin Wanzhou's house, and we can't bully her like we did at school.
Nothing unpleasant happened during the meal as Xu Cheng had worried. Gao Manman's attitude was not cold, but it was not enthusiastic either.
After dinner, it was already late at night.
Lin's father went to send Xu Cheng back to the city center community, leaving Lin Wanzhou and Gao Manman at home.
The girl first helped her mother clean up the dishes, and after washing them, Gao Manman sent her to bed.
She returned to the bedroom, took out the scarf she had bought from the suitcase, hid it behind her, then ran to the living room and opened it in front of Gao Manman with surprise.
“Dangdangdangdang.”
Gao Manman laughed out loud when she saw the black scarf in Lin Wanzhou's hand.
She took it from her daughter, held it in her palm, and liked it very much, but she still couldn't help nagging.
"Kid, your mother is already so old, and she still buys these things for me."
“My mother is obviously very young.”
Lin Wanzhou sat on the sofa with his arm around Gao Manman.
"Hehe, Mom, this is a gift Xu Cheng picked out especially for you. He also asked me what your favorite color is."
“…”
When Gao Manman heard it was Xu Cheng, she stopped talking.
Lin Wanzhou quickly took the scarf.
"Put it on and see."
“This child…”
Amid Gao Manman's symbolic obstruction, Lin Wanzhou wrapped the scarf around her neck.
The girl was wrapping it carefully, but suddenly she noticed a few obvious white strands in Gao Manman's hair, and her hands stopped moving at once.
Seeing that she didn't move, Gao Manman turned her head away, only to see her daughter's tears dripping down her cheeks.
"What's wrong? Did Xu Cheng bully you?" Her tone became nervous.
"No, nothing."
Lin Wanzhou wiped her tears with the back of her hand. Her voice was choked and her speech was intermittent.
"I, I saw that you had white hair... and I couldn't help it..."
“This child…”
Gao Manman's eyes were filled with tears, and she didn't know what to say to comfort her, so she wiped her eyes with toilet paper.
"Mom will always get old, you are already so old, but don't worry, mom will still see your child born and help you take care of her ."
"Then mom, please don't be angry with Xu Cheng, okay?" the girl asked with sobs.
Gao Manman was stunned.
"Why would I be angry with a kid like him?"
"But he moved the company to Shanghai. Isn't this very important to you?" Lin Wanzhou looked at her with tears in his eyes.
After hearing this, Gao Manman couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"My silly girl, what are you thinking about? Those things are never important."
Lin Wanzhou looked puzzled, so Gao Manman reached out and touched her head.
"You are the most important to me."
"But, but, you helped Xu Cheng so much in the past, this is not how he didn't repay you..."
"Since you have chosen Xu Cheng, Mom will of course do her best to help him. As long as it's good for you two, why would I care about any reward?"
“…”
Lin Wanzhou felt warm in her heart.
She felt that she must be the happiest girl in the world. She had the love of her mother and Xu Cheng. It was doubly loved, but it was a different kind of love.
"Okay, it's getting late. You must be exhausted after sitting in the car all day. Go to bed quickly."
"Um."
Lin Wanzhou nodded slightly.
"Good night, mother."
Gao Manman picked up the girl and kissed her forehead gently.
"Good night, daughter."
