Chapter 486 Always doing good things for no apparent reason
Lu Teng walked downstairs leisurely, walked out of the community, turned a corner, and got into a car.
In the driver's seat, Liang Fei was talking on the phone with Nian Gao.
"Dad is a little worried and says that the time for the two families to have dinner together has to be postponed. Alas, Teng Teng is a good child in every way, but he is too honest. He answers everything his father asks truthfully."
Listening to Nian Gao's complaints, Liang Fei quickly said that it was nothing to worry about, and sighed heavily and said: "The problem is still with me. If I were not such a person, uncle would definitely not hesitate. But it doesn't matter. I will behave well in the next few days and dispel uncle's concerns as soon as possible. Oh, by the way, I will visit you again after you have visited your relatives."
"It's the only way."
Nian Gao asked worriedly, "Will you be angry?"
"Angry? Why are you angry? He's your father." Liang Fei said seriously, "From a father's perspective, Uncle Nian did nothing wrong. You are the apple of his eye. He must be very cautious about this important matter. It would be the same if I were to marry my daughter."
Nian Gao exclaimed, feeling very amazed: "You even considered my dad. Don't think I don't know that you said a lot of bad things about him behind his back before."
Liang Fei laughed: "That was all because I was young and ignorant. Now I respect Uncle Nian very much."
You have to respect him, and it would be best if he always cares about you.
Nian Gao thought for a moment and asked again: "Well, will the uncles and aunts guess? You have to explain it to them nicely, so as not to make a bad impression on my dad."
Liang Chui-fung and Valen Hsu?
They must be very grateful to Nian Zheng.
After repeatedly assuring that she would explain everything to her parents, Liang Fei kissed the phone several times before she hung up the phone contentedly. She glanced at Lu Teng who was leaning back in his chair and looking out the window in deep thought.
“Well done.”
Liang Fei took out a not-new mobile phone from the storage box: "Here, it's just a small token of my respect, please accept it, Brother Teng."
"well……"
Lu Teng sighed heavily and murmured, "I am so confused. I actually became an accomplice of the scumbag. When I came out of Sister Nian Gao's house, my heart ached. I understand that this is the pain of my conscience..."
Looking down at the new phone that Liang Fei had thrown on his thigh, Lu Teng sighed again: "Can a mobile phone buy off my conscience?"
Liang Fei started the car and looked ahead expressionlessly: "Nineteen years old, a freshman female student at Minghai Art College, 1.65 meters tall, fair skin, beautiful face, big breasts and hips, soft voice and gentle body."
Lu Teng stopped breathing, afraid of missing any information.
Liang Fei looked at him with a smile: "Does Brother Teng's conscience still hurt?"
Lu Teng smiled and said, "What is conscience? I have lost it a long time ago. When can I meet this beautiful girl, cousin?"
People, they have almost no bottom line.
Teng Teng has none of that.
On the way home, Lu Teng asked Liang Fei excitedly, "I've taken care of this, but where's Li Xingchen? I don't think he'll be around. It's obvious that he can't act, so don't bring him along when we go out to play. I'm already stressed out with a big handsome guy like you around, and if a little handsome guy comes along, I won't feel like playing with him."
"You kid, you like to eat alone." Liang Fei chuckled and said while steering, "I believe in Li Xingchen, he definitely has the potential to achieve great things."
Lu Teng didn't believe it: "How awesome can it be?"
Liang Fei glanced at Lu Teng: "He took a bath yesterday."
"What's the matter? I took a shower yesterday."
"Cold shower."
"Cold, cold shower!?" Lu Teng was extremely shocked. "It was only once last night, once!"
Seeing that Liang Fei didn't seem to be joking, Lu Teng exclaimed a few times, extremely surprised: "Damn, this is too much, he is even more greedy for girls than I am, this is something I never expected, he doesn't look like the kind of person who is greedy for beauty."
"Teng Teng, you can't judge a person by his appearance. Just like I couldn't believe you were a bootlicker before."
"Brother, can we stop talking about being a dog licker? I am now a man who travels the world and swears to have seen all the beauties in the world ."
“…”
On the other hand, Li Xingchen was in a terrible situation.
Since the surgery in high school, Li Xingchen has been going to bed early and getting up early, eating a proper diet, and exercising every day to keep his body healthy and strong. What did this lead to? It led to him taking a cold shower and feeling no pressure at all.
Helplessly, I had to wash it again and poured cold water on it every day. Finally, I caught a cold and had a fever.
Old House
Li Xingchen was covered in a thick quilt, feeling both cold and hot.
Li Xingruo squatted beside the bed, took out the mercury thermometer that Li Xingchen had held under his tongue, raised it up and squinted at it: "38 degrees, the temperature has dropped a bit, do we really not need to go to the hospital?"
"Need not."
Li Xingchen felt that it was actually okay. It was not particularly serious. His state of being unable to move and his extremely weak appearance were mostly pretended.
"Ahem, sister, didn't we agree to have dinner with Brother Liang Fei and his family today? Hurry up and dress up, don't delay business."
After that, Li Xingchen looked up at his sister and said, "Don't worry about me. I'll be fine after a good sleep."
Li Xingruo looks weak and frail, but in fact she is very strong-willed. She is a typical example of a woman who is gentle on the outside but strong on the inside. If not for this, when her parents passed away and left her with a sick brother, an ordinary girl would have collapsed and would not know what to do.
But Li Xingruo was very calm at the time. He decisively dropped out of school and inherited the electronic repair shop left by his parents. With the influence of his parents since childhood and his day and night research, he managed to support the living expenses of his two siblings and the money for Li Xingchen's medicine before the operation.
Just like countless previous late nights, when Li Xingruo came home exhausted from the store, he would go into Li Xingchen's room as usual, just like now, touch his forehead, squat beside the bed to look at his brother, and then reach out to feel his breath.
He was still breathing, which meant Li Xingchen was not dead, so Li Xingruo could go back to her room and sleep peacefully.
Now there is no need to worry about Li Xingchen dying at any time, but Li Xingruo is not willing to abandon her brother and eat as much as she wants. She is not in the mood to do so.
"Forget it today."
Li Xingruo blinked and slapped a cooling patch on Li Xingchen's forehead: "I'll stay here and watch over you. I'll leave when your fever goes down."
Li Xingchen suppressed the guilt in his heart: "What about eating?"
“Forget it this year.”
Li Xingruo stood up and said, "I'll call Uncle Ding and Aunt Pei. They've been very concerned about this meal, so I have to tell them first."
Li Xingchen looked at his sister's thin back and suddenly felt that he was nothing.
Just for the sake of a life of luxury and those cute girls who are only good for the sake of appearance, you hurt your body and deceive the best sister in the world?
At the beginning, I was really blinded by greed and bewitched by the devil, which was why I agreed to Liang Fei's excessive request!
It’s all my fault for not having resisted temptation!
"elder sister……"
Li Xingchen was about to speak when the phone beside his pillow suddenly rang.
More than a dozen pictures were sent by Liang Fei, each of them was pretty and well-proportioned. There were mature ladies, cute girls, pure girls, and coquettish girls.
Liang Fei: [Pick as many as you want. Never mind. I'll have them all in place by then.]
Li Xingchen: “…”
Li Xingruo, who had gone to pour hot water for Li Xingchen, came back, put down the cup, and asked, "Did you call me just now? What happened?"
Li Xingchen stuffed the phone under the pillow and coughed weakly a few times: "Nothing, I just wanted to call you good sister. I'm sorry."
Damn it, I really deserve to die.
Li Xingruo didn't notice anything unusual, shrugged and said, "What's there to be sorry about? You are sick, you didn't do anything bad, and you didn't ask me to be a brother-supporting demon."
Ding Dong~
WeChat is here.
Li Xingruo opened the message and read it, then said to Li Xingchen, "Uncle Ding and Aunt Pei are worried and want to come and visit you."
"No, no need?"
Although he had a cold and a fever, Li Xingchen always felt that he would be exposed, so he resisted: "Uncle Ding and Aunt Pei are such big leaders. They come to visit me. It's not that serious. It's just a minor cold. They won't bring someone to take pictures with them, right?"
Li Xingruo was amused by her brother's words: "You thought Shen Teng and Ma Li were filming a skit, they came to visit as individuals, what are you thinking about strange things."
After saying that, Li Xingruo sat down on the bed, with his back to Li Xingchen, looked up at the ceiling, then turned back to look at his brother and asked, "Hey, do you also hope that Liang Fei and I can develop a closer and deeper relationship?"
Li Xingchen nodded slightly.
Li Xingruo raised her hands and clicked her nails, then lowered her head and said, "But, I can see that he has other girls he likes. Of course, he likes me too. But do you think someone like me can really beat those outstanding girls and make Liang Fei belong to me alone?"
Without waiting for Li Xingchen to answer, Li Xingruo shook his head first and said with relief: "Well, forget it, why bother thinking about these things, but I heard that you and Liang Fei are having a good time now, where are you going to play?"
Li Xingchen thought for a moment and replied, "It's just some, um, places that are more suitable for talking about things. Brother Liang Fei took me to see some high-end places that successful people often go to. The people there have high emotional intelligence, speak well, and are all polite."
Li Xingruo nodded slightly: "That's good, I'll learn more. When I graduate and start working, I won't be inappropriate when I go out to . Hey, where is it exactly?"
A drop of cold sweat slid down Li Xingchen's forehead, and just when he didn't know how to answer, there was a knock on the door.
"I think it's Uncle Ding and Teacher Pei. I'll go open the door." Li Xingruo got up and went to the living room.
Li Xingchen, who escaped the danger, felt relieved. He quickly wiped the cold sweat from his body and felt a lot more relaxed. After being so scared, the fever seemed to have subsided.
Li Xingchen tore off the cooling patch, put his palm on his forehead and rubbed it back and forth until Li Xingruo brought Ding Dehong and Pei Rou in. He then pressed the cooling patch back on, seized the last bit of time to rub his cheeks vigorously, then stuffed his hands into the quilt, propped himself up, and greeted the two elders.
"Hello, Uncle Ding, hello, Aunt Pei."
Pei Rou put down her bag, walked quickly to Li Xingchen's side, and helped him lie down: "Why are you getting up? Have a good rest."
Pei Rou used the back of her hand to test the temperature of Li Xingchen's face and hissed, "It's still hot. Don't we really need to go to the hospital?"
Li Xingchen said hurriedly, "Really, it's not necessary. I just caught a cold and had a fever. I'm a grown man, I'll be fine after a good sleep. I'm really sorry to bother you, uncle and aunt, to come here in person."
"Xingchen is really sensible."
Pei Rou turned around and said to Ding Dehong, "Bring the thermos bucket."
"I'll go to the kitchen and find a bowl."
Ding Dehong turned to the kitchen, put out the rice porridge from the thermos bucket, and walked into the bedroom with the bowl. Seeing Li Xingruo coming forward to take the bowl, he smiled and said, "I'll give it to Xingchen. Xingchen is my junior. This is a great fate."
Ding Dehong also graduated from Renmin University, a true prodigy.
Although she had already mentioned it on the phone, Li Xingruo still brought up the matter of dinner again: "Uncle, Teacher Pei, Xingchen is like this, I really don't feel comfortable leaving him alone at home. I will go to Uncle Liang and Aunt Xu to apologize for dinner tonight."
Pei Rou held Li Xingruo's hand distressedly, shook her head and said, "You don't have to go. I called Ru Ting on the way here to explain. Ru Ting also said that she wanted to come and visit Xingchen in person. I thought their grandparents were there and needed someone to take care of them, so I didn't let them come."
Li Xingruo nodded slightly. How could an old man be without someone to take care of him?
This is the information gap. No one would have thought that Liang Fei’s grandparents are still tough guys who can climb Mount Tai on foot.
Li Xingchen got up by himself, leaned against the head of the bed, and tried to take the rice porridge with both hands. Ding Dehong had already stuffed a spoon into his mouth and said with a smile: "Xingchen, we are closer than them. We are brothers from the same school. Have you ever attended Professor Chen's class?"
Li Xingchen knew the Professor Chen that Ding Dehong mentioned. He was the famous ancestor of Renmin University, so he immediately started talking: "I've heard of him. Professor Chen is very lovely and amiable. He welcomes us undergraduates to his classroom and even explains the difficult points to us after class."
After swallowing the rice porridge, Li Xingchen continued, "But Professor Chen is old and rarely teaches classes. I don't have many opportunities to listen to his teachings."
After listening to this, Ding Dehong smiled and said, "When I was studying, Chen Lao Ke was in his prime. He was full of ambition and often spoke eloquently on the podium. If it weren't for his influence, I might have gone into scientific research."
The two men, one big and one small, were talking enthusiastically about school matters. Many of the old professors who had taught Ding Dehong are still teaching at Renmin University. When talking about the styles of these masters, the two men exchanged ideas.
Pei Rou went to the kitchen to take a look, and seeing that there were still some dishes, she said to Li Xingruo, "Xingruo, come and help me. We can't have a big dinner tonight, so let's just have a simple meal at home."
"Yeah, okay."
Li Xingruo squatted beside the trash can and peeled garlic. She looked up and said to Pei Rou apologetically, "Teacher Pei, I'm sorry. You and uncle have been preparing for this meal for a long time. I..."
Ding Dehong and Pei Rou had obviously prepared well for today and were dressed very appropriately. Ding Dehong even wore a tie. Although he had an important status and attended many meetings, he would only wear a tie on more formal occasions. This showed that both of them tried their best to leave a good impression on Liang Fei's family.
"What's the big deal? If love is long-lasting, why should we be together day and night?"
Pei Rou turned around and comforted Li Xingruo: "Your uncle and I are worried about you. Do you feel wronged?"
"Won't."
Li Xingruo shook her head and spread the strands of hair in front of her cheeks. She turned around to look at Ding Dehong who was feeding Li Xingchen porridge and chatting in the bedroom. She lowered her head and wiped her eyes, then said with a smile, "I think this is better, especially good."
Pei Rou also smiled. Yes, this kind of warm moment is so precious to all of them. Family is a really good thing.
