Chapter 38 Pretend to be pure.(1/2)
In the pink room, the bay window was covered with white carpets and filled with plush toys from children. Today, the chicken doll obtained from the trampoline park was placed in the front, a small one, but it was particularly eye-catching.
Outside the window are white and sparse stars and light moon.
Mianmian blinked her eyes and shone with the light of expectation.
Jian Qing was silent for a while, reached out and rubbed the little guy's forehead, with gentle eyes and whispered: "No."
"Sister is just sister." She said softly: "Mianmian will have a second mother in the future."
The little guy was a little disappointed after hearing this, buried his little face in the quilt and muttered, "Okay then."
Jian Qing didn't say much, and couldn't say anything comforting. She could only continue to tell the bedtime story softly until Mianmian's breathing was slow and she snored quietly.
She closed the picture book lightly, turned off the bedside lamp, and closed the door and left.
The lights were not turned on in the corridor, and the light was dim. The light shining into the living room from afar, and the sound of the TV came.
There is a song-
The windmills are creaking and creaking, and the scenery here is so beautiful.
It sounds like the children's channel.
Jian Qing leaned against the door, her eyelashes drooped, and shed a layer of darkness, so she couldn't see the emotions in her pupils.
My heart seemed to be pressing on a heavy stone.
The mobile phone screen glows in the darkness.
It's a new email message.
Jian Qing opened the email to read.
The light of the screen reflected on her face, outlining soft and beautiful facial lines.
The email came from Huaiyu Games, and it was her official offer passed.
The job is January 4th, and I will go to work after New Year's Day.
She stared at the email in a daze, rubbing her index finger back and forth on the back of the phone.
It is obviously a multiple-choice question without hesitation, but you can know where to go at a glance.
Jian Qing locked the screen, sighed softly, and walked towards the living room.
Lu Huaiyu lazily sank into the sofa, holding a pillow in his arms, not changing his clothes, and was still a suit and trousers during the day. The two buttons on the top of the shirt were unbuttoned, the collar was slightly open, and the deep collarbone inside was vaguely visible.
His eyelids drooped slightly, and he watched the TV casually, with a faint expression on his face. Seeing her coming out of it, his eyes moved to her, "Did Mianm sleep?"
Jian Qing said lightly, and sat down on the other side of the sofa.
The conversation between the two is very similar to the ordinary family of three, with ordinary conversations every day.
Jian Qing sat straight, her back stiff, and her hands were placed on her legs, fiddling back and forth uneasy.
Lu Huaiyu looked at her inadvertently, and saw her restraint and strangeness in his eyes. He slowly withdrew his gaze and landed on the TV again.
Her clean and slender index finger has clear joints and taps it lightly on the pillow. She doesn't rush to ask, waiting for her to speak.
Jian Qing was a little uneasy. After a while, she pursed her lips and finally plucked up the courage, "Well, I have something I want to tell you."
Hearing this, Lu Huaiyu slowly stood up, picked up the remote control on the coffee table, turned off the TV, and signaled her to say.
He has always been very well educated. He watches TV when watching TV and talks about things, and is preparing to listen to her seriously.
Without the noisy sounds of the TV, Jian Qing became even more nervous.
She stared at the man's dark eyes and opened her mouth, "It's-"
Jian Qing has never been a hesitant and hesitant person, but just quit her tutor to go for an internship.
Others can see which one is more important, whether it is more important, or what is more important, at a glance.
But I don't know what's wrong, I just can't say it.
I was afraid that Lu Huaiyu would think she was an indecisive and irresponsible person.
I can't bear to sleep, for fear that the little guy will be sad.
After quitting the tutor, I will have no relationship with this family in the future.
She is obviously the one who doesn’t even want the old house, but she doesn’t want it.
Thinking of this, Jian Qing pulled the corner of her mouth and spoke slowly, "I recently found an internship job. I will be in my senior year next year and have to prepare for my job after graduation, so I can't do the job as a tutor in the future."
She secretly glanced at Lu Huaiyu's face, without any expression, just turned her head and listened quietly to her, without even lifting her eyelids.
"I asked Aunt Qin that her son will be discharged from the hospital next week. I thought that the tutoring and the work of taking care of Mianmian will end at the end of the month." She paused, "If Mianmian still needs a tutor and you don't mind, I can introduce my classmates."
“…”
After saying that, Jian Qing grabbed the hem of her clothes back and forth, waiting for his reaction.
Lu Huaiyu's eyes fell on her face, and he responded with a faint "Okay".
He did not say anything to keep, did not show any disappointment, nor did he complain about her.
It was she who told him, and he knew.
Jian Qing preset a lot of his reactions, but he didn't expect it to be that simple, but he didn't know what to say.
It seemed like he was always like this, plain, making her not feel that she had done something wrong, and the guilt that aroused gradually dissipated without realizing it.
"Are you still short of money now?" he asked suddenly.
Jian Qing was stunned, remembering that he had asked the same question a long time ago.
It's not the kind of offense that is above her and above her.
Instead, I asked calmly, as if I lack money or not, as if the weather is good or not, without any mercy or curiosity.
She smiled and replied frankly: "I'm still missing."
"Then do you mind shifting the tutoring time to the weekend?" he said. "It was Monday to Friday, from 3:00 to 6:00 p.m. If it was changed to Saturday and Sunday, from 10:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., the time was the same, and the price remained unchanged."
“…”
The tutoring salary offered by Lu Huaiyu is already very high. If the tutoring time of a week is concentrated on Saturdays and Sundays, the income will be very considerable.
Jian Qing was a little moved, but she felt it was not good. "But painting still needs to be progressive. If a child sits and draws all day, his efficiency will become lower."
"The purpose of my consultation is not entirely to teach Mianmian to draw." Lu Huaiyu explained: "She is not yet the age to go to kindergarten. I am busy with work. Aunt Qin is older and it is okay to take care of Mianmian's daily life, but she can't play with her."
“…”
Jian Qing was silent, it turned out that she was a playmate.
Although he said that, Jian Qing couldn't really be a companion to play with with peace of mind.
Moreover, she was scared.
I was afraid that she would really get stuck in as Zhou Shanshan said.
Everything about Lu Huaiyu was just right, making her feel comfortable.
reason.
Elegant.
His behaviors all reveal the upbringing engraved in his bones.
You can see at a glance that it was raised in a wealthy family, received a good education, lived a pampered life, and taught by the family with great effort.
It's so clean that there's no stain.
Different from her.
Jian Qing is not the kind of person who has no psychological tolerance. He will not be jealous or inferior just because others have good things.
But I didn't dare to touch the moon that was out of reach for her.
She pursed her lips, raised her head, met his dark eyes, and finally shook her head, "I'm sorry, I may not have time on the weekend."
If you say something refuses, there is no possibility of recovery.
Lin Yi said she is a person who cannot appeal to feelings.
It seems that this is true. She has always been used to restraining feelings rather than following them.
Just like now, she touched a little bit of the edge, and immediately retracted her hand because of fear and cowardice.
“…”
Lu Huaiyu stared at her clear eyes, with repulsion and resistance reflected in her pupils.
After a while, he lowered his eyelids and said lightly: "It's okay, it's because I'm not thinking well."
The atmosphere became a little awkward and he fell into silence for a long time.
Lu Huaiyu turned on the TV again, and neither of them spoke, just stared at the children's channel.
At nine o'clock in the evening, the cartoon episode was finished.
Lu Huaiyu slowly tied up the top two buttons of his shirt, smoothed the wrinkles on his cuffs, looked down at his watch, and broke the deadlock, "I have to go on a business trip tonight, and I shouldn't come back these days."
