Everyone inside and outside the door was stunned.
Before the two sides could say hello, Xu Huaishi was shocked and said "Wow", which made Ruan Yu feel embarrassed. She swallowed the words "Auntie" that were originally on the side of her mouth.
Tao Rong smiled, relieved her discomfort and said, "Hello, I am Huai Song's mother. Is Huai Song here?"
Ruan Yu smiled and said, "I remember you, aunt. He went back to San Francisco with some urgent matters, and it might just happen to be staggered with you."
"An urgent matter?" Tao Rong's face changed slightly, "Is there something wrong with her work?"
"No..." Seeing that standing like this is not a matter of not being a big deal, Ruan Yu stepped aside and said, "You and Huai Shi come in first."
She invited the two of them to the sofa and asked them to put down the big bags.
Tao Rong explained to her: "I was afraid that he would come in advance, so he didn't want us to make trouble, so he drove a long distance back to Su City, so he came without saying hello."
Ruan Yu discovered that Tao Rong lowered her posture when she said this, as if as Xu Huaisong's mother, she might as well be close to him as a woman who appeared in his room.
After all, they have been separated for too many years, and the mother and son seem to be a little separated.
Ruan Yu quickly explained to Xu Huaisong: "He was thinking about you and planned to go back to Su City. He bought all the festive gifts." As he said that, he pointed to the gift boxes piled up in the living room, "I just didn't decide whether tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, so I haven't told you yet."
Tao Rong looked at him from a distance and smiled: "This child..."
Seeing the two of them sitting fucking, Ruan Yu stood up and said, "I'll make you a cup of tea."
She said that and went to the kitchen counter to work. After a while, she heard footsteps coming from behind. When she turned around, she saw Tao Rong coming up unnaturally, and whispered, asking, "Is there something wrong with his father in San Francisco?"
Ruan Yu was originally hesitant to tell the truth because he was not sure about Xu Huaisong's current family situation. Now he seemed to not want Xu Huaisi to know about it, so he nodded slightly and said softly: "It seems that the old illness recurs."
Xu Huaishi, who was playing with her cell phone over there, heard the slight movement and turned around and muttered: "Mom, what are you talking to your sister?"
Tao Rong turned around and looked at her.
Ruan Yu smiled and changed the subject: "You are here all the way, so you should call Huaisong."
"No." She waved her hand, "He must be in a hurry to drive now, so don't tell him, we'll leave right away." As she said that, she looked down at her tea-deleting hands, "Don't be busy either."
Ruan Yu didn't insist, so he poured her a cup of boiled water. Seeing that she was absent-minded when she took it, he added in a low voice: "Don't worry too much."
Tao Rong, who was seen through her mind, smiled a little, and after a while he was cheered up again, saying, "Are you doing well with Huaisong?"
Ruan Yu was choking. Knowing the situation today, it was difficult for parents to understand it. While considering how to explain it, Tao Rong seemed to have misunderstood her silence and quickly said, "If you think he is not good, take more responsibility. This child has never had friends before, and may not understand many things."
Ruan Yu was stunned for a moment and subconsciously blurted out: "He hasn't talked about it for so many years?"
Speaking of this, Tao Rong's previous restraint was slightly reduced and she also told her: "As far as I know, it is not easy for Chinese to be a lawyer in the United States. If you don't show some ability to convince the public, you will often be discriminated against. Especially after his father's case, he has to rely on himself in everything and put all his energy into his career. How can he have the heart to talk to friends?"
Ruan Yu said "hmm". What she cared about at this time was not what she had been curious about for a long time, Xu Huaisong's emotional history.
The heart is sour and astringent, and it feels indescribable.
Tao Rong was still watering her heart: "Actually, Huaisong has some flaws in character." She said as if she was afraid to scare Ruan Yu, and explained, "I am not referring to pathological flaws."
Ruan Yu turned his head: "Hmm?"
Tao Rong smiled and sighed: "Hello he told you about my father?"
She nodded.
"We had a disagreement before he entered junior high school. This matter had a more or less impact on his growth, so he inevitably had a cringe in his personality. Maybe sometimes it made you feel that you were not straightforward and decisive enough, but that was often a manifestation of his concern too much. I hope you forgive me, this is because his father and I were not doing well."
Ruan Yu gently patted Tao Rong's back of her hand and gestured to comfort her: "I understand, don't worry."
The two chatted for a while, and Ruan Yu's cell phone rang.
It was Liu Mao’s phone call and asked if she was still in the hotel.
"exist."
"Then you just wait there. Xiao Chen will arrive soon, and Huaisong asks him to take you home."
Ruan Yu choked: "It's a big holiday, why are you still having trouble getting to Xiao Chen? I'll go back by myself, you call me..." She said this, glanced at Tao Rong, took Yuan's cell phone and asked her, "Auntie, how did you come here?"
“The high-speed train is taken.”
"When you go back?"
"Oh yes." Tao Rong turned to Xu Huaishi on the sofa and said, "Huaishi, please see if you can change the ticket for the return journey in advance."
No need to watch it. According to the number of passenger flows during holidays, it is impossible to have the opportunity to change the book in advance at this time, unless you stop all the way back.
Ruan Yu took the phone closer again: "I really want to trouble Xiao Chen, please call him over."
Chen Hui arrived at the hotel soon after. Ruan Yu greeted him, thanked him repeatedly, and sent Tao Rong, who insisted not to eat here, downstairs.
Xu Huaishi stopped talking again, and when she came to the car, she grabbed Tao Rong's arm: "Mom... I've come here, can I play here for two days?"
"Can you feel at ease when you leave you alone in Hangzhou? Go back with me and come back when your brother is there another day."
Xu Huaishi bulged her mouth and got into the car. Halfway through, she turned around and looked at Ruan Yu pitifully.
Upon receiving her distress signal, Ruan Yumo mourned and took a step forward: "Auntie, if Huai Shi wants to stay in Hangzhou for two days, I will take care of her."
Xu Huaishi didn't know what happened to her father, and she was not as worried as Tao Rong, so she was so happy that she stayed.
But when Ruan Yu asked her where she wanted to go, she shook her head: "It's too hot, and there are crowds of attractions on holidays. I actually want to chat with you sister. Let's go back upstairs or go to your house."
I didn't expect it to be a homestay too.
Ruan Yu thought about it, called her parents, saying that something happened temporarily and she had to go there another day, and then asked, "Is that your brother's place or my house?"
"How far is this place from your home?"
"If it's not blocked, it's half an hour's drive."
"It must be blocked! Forget it, I almost vomited when I took the bus."
The two of them finally returned to the room without any pursuit.
Xu Huaishi put down the schoolbag on her shoulder, took out a stack of white papers, and said bitterly: "Sister, you don't have to take care of me. I have homework to take care of you. You can do your business."
Ruan Yu laughed.
Xu Huaishi might have mistakenly thought that she lived with Xu Huaishong, but she didn't know that she had nothing to do here.
What can she do? She held up with nothing for a while, remembered the orange cat, opened the bedroom door and saw that it was nestled inside.
She carried the cat out, and Xu Huaishi saw it and said in surprise: "Wow, my brother is really a change. He used to be very annoyed to take care of cat-haired and dog-haired!"
Ruan Yu was stunned.
Didn’t Xu Huaisong like cats very much when he was in high school?
Xu Huaishi rushed over to play with the cat and asked, "What is its name?"
"Now there is only one English name, why don't you give it a Chinese name and follow the local customs?"
"Then you take it, sister, I heard from my brother that you are a writer, so you are very educated."
How can I cultivate it by taking a cat name?
Ruan Yu came casually: "Type a rhyme with Tiffany, call it Pipi. Well... Xu Pipi?"
"Okay, okay, take my last name!"
Ruan Yu smiled "hehe" and did not say the words "It's your brother's surname" to hurt her. Unexpectedly, "If you want Cao Cao, Cao Cao will arrive", and the next second he followed Xu Huaisong's call.
She immediately asked, "How is the situation in Uncle?"
"It's still in the rescue room," Xu Huaisong comforted her, "It's okay."
She said softly, "Then you can concentrate on driving and stop calling."
"I heard from Chen Hui that you and Huai Shi are here with me now?"
"Yes, we are over forty years old together, so you don't have to worry about it."
Xu Huaisong seemed to smile a little helplessly: "I'm afraid you're bored, so tell you that my computer password is also your birthday, and you can use it casually."
After hanging up the phone, Ruan Yu finally found something he could do. With his permission, he moved his computer to the living room, but he paused when entering the password.
Xu Huaisong set her birthday as the password for her mobile phone and computer. So, is that payment password of special meaning? Will it also be related to her?
309017…
Out of such a narcissistic complex, Ruan Yu began to force this string of numbers to himself.
30-I can't think of it.
90-No idea.
17—She likes this number quite well, because the high school number is it.
Thinking of this, she suddenly stood in front of the computer.
She is No. 17 of Class 309.
Is this what this string of numbers mean?
But she has not disclosed such real information in the novel. Where did he find it?
Ruan Yu was puzzled, but at this critical moment, he asked Xu Huaisong about such an insignificant little thing, so he had to suppress it for the time being.
As the meal was approaching, because Xu Huaishi was too lazy to go out and was rushing for the test papers, she asked someone to send some fresh food to make delicious food for her.
