"Haha, you are still embarrassed to admit it! Zhiqiang, we have all been here before. I know that you have been busy recently and don't have much time to spend with Xiaoxiao, but you must remember my words and pay attention to your health!"

Looking at Fang Zhiqiang’s still dazed look, Xiao’s mother couldn’t help but smile, and then continued.

"Oh... I understand, Mom..." Fang Zhiqiang, who understood, glanced at Li Xiaoxiao again casually, and then nodded fiercely.

"Hurry up and eat! I made the yam porridge specially for you, so take advantage of it!" Xiao's mother filled a bowl of porridge for Fang Zhiqiang and said while handing it to Fang Zhiqiang.

Fang Zhiqiang quickly took the porridge, then glanced at Li Xiaoxiao again, then slowly realized, and then started eating on his own.

“Eat vegetables!” Li Yonggui saw Fang Zhiqiang drinking porridge and reminded him again.

"Yeah!" Fang Zhiqiang nodded and ate the food like a machine.

The people at the table looked at Fang Zhiqiang’s machine-like figure and smiled.

But only Li Xiaoxiao, when everyone was laughing, she was eating her meal with her head down and expressionless.

"Zhiqiang, why do you always feel that you are a little reserved in this family?"

Xiao's mother never moved her chopsticks, just watching Fang Zhiqiang wolfing down With a look like that, he spoke again.

Of course Fang Zhiqiang devoured the food. At this moment, he didn’t want to stay at this dining table. The atmosphere was really weird.

"Huh? No, I'm a good mom." Fang Zhiqiang stopped the chopsticks that were about to be put into his mouth, then looked at Xiao's mother and said.

"Zhiqiang, you must not be restrained in any way in our own home. You, Xiaoxiao and Xiaoxia are all the same to us. Look, there is no one in our home either. Son, so you are like a biological son to us. We always treat you as we say. You don’t have to take it to heart. As long as you always remember, we will always treat you as a relative. Okay." Xiaoma said seriously, and Fang Zhiqiang nodded hard after listening. In fact, Fang Zhiqiang knew this, Xiaoma and Li Yonggui had always been very good to him, and some At that time, Fang Zhiqiang could indeed feel the warmth of home here.

But Fang Zhiqiang also knows very well that no matter how real that feeling is, it cannot be true. After all, he is in someone else's home. No matter how close he is, he is not his biological child after all, so this One thing will never change.

Speaking of which, Fang ZhiQiang almost forgot what he looked like in front of his parents.

People who have parents must be very happy, right? No matter how old you are, you can act like a baby in front of them...

Act like a baby.

This word sounds a bit pretentious, but for Fang Zhiqiang, how much he wants to act coquettishly now!

In front of Xiao Ma and Li Yonggui, this is obviously impossible. They have high expectations for themselves. Once they do something that makes them look down upon, their situation in this family will be It will become more and more embarrassing.

And Li Xiaoxiao is even more impossible.

Ever since Fang Zhiqiang first met her, she has been a simple and kind-hearted girl. Even after getting married, she has changed a lot, but after all, her nature cannot be changed.

So in front of her, Fang Zhiqiang only had the impulse and desire to take care of her, but let himself act coquettishly in front of her?

Fang Zhiqiang couldn’t even imagine that scene.

Thirty-two-year-old Fang Zhiqiang knows that he is already a man who is about to enter middle age, but how many men of his age are still just children in the eyes of their parents? ?

They may be all-powerful figures outside, they may be upright men, but as soon as they come home, they are still the children who will never grow up.

Perhaps, after a man's sadness and grievances were expressed in front of his parents at home, he could feel their parents' warm comfort, and maybe everything would be fine.

But for Fang Zhiqiang now, these are all extravagant hopes.

"Uncle and aunt, there is something I want to tell you." When the table suddenly fell silent, Wang Xia spoke hesitantly and said this.

"What's wrong?" Li Yonggui looked at her first and asked.

"This year is over, and there is nothing to do here. Otherwise, I will go back after dinner later, right?" Wang Xia said to the two old people in a negotiating tone. .

Because she knows that for the two old people, they definitely hope that someone can stay with them. Although Li Xiaoxiao is back now, when Fang Zhiqiang is not at home, there will inevitably be some problems at home. Empty.

So, Wang Xia actually knew that they did not want her to leave.

But for Wang Xia, staying here is indeed a kind of torture for her. She sees all kinds of trivial things every day, andThe possible ups and downs in the relationship between Fang Zhiqiang and Li Xiaoxiao are, in a sense, too cruel for her to be alone.

"Why? Isn't it nice to live here?" As expected, Xiao's mother asked.

"It's indeed good, but I can't live here forever. The house over there is still vacant, and I'm used to being alone." Wang Xia continued.

　"It's better not to go back. You live in such a big house alone with no one to talk to, and you have nothing to do now. You just stay here. If you have something on your mind, you can't. Wouldn't it be nice if you could tell us about it?" Li Yonggui continued.

Listening to Li Yonggui’s words, Wang Xia suddenly didn’t know what else she could say. She really didn’t want to stay here, but when faced with Li Yonggui’s words, she didn’t know how to refuse. .

"Okay, let's eat quickly!" Li Yonggui said again immediately after seeing Wang Xia's silence.

After eating, while Wang Xia was clearing away the dishes, Fang Zhiqiang stood up, said hello to everyone, and was about to turn around and leave.

It’s just that Fang Zhiqiang didn’t tell Li Xiaoxiao specifically because he is not a person who likes acting. The two of them had a bad time last night, so today Fang Zhiqiang is indeed in front of Li Xiaoxiao. He couldn't let go. At least let him act as if nothing had happened. He really couldn't do it.

However, when Fang Zhiqiang was about to reach the door, Li Xiaoxiao stood up on his own initiative. Looking at Fang Zhiqiang’s leaving figure, he immediately said with a smile: "Be careful on the road. !"

"Okay!" Fang Zhiqiang turned his head, looked at Li Xiaoxiao's worried expression, said these two words with a smile, and then turned and left.

After walking out of the room, the smile on Fang Zhiqiang’s face instantly dissipated, not because he was unhappy, but because he felt sorry for Li Xiaoxiao.

He knew very well that Li Xiaoxiao was clearly feeling very uncomfortable right now, but she still had to pretend to be nonchalant in front of her parents. Fang Zhiqiang could understand that kind of mood very well, and he didn't like it either. A disguise, not to mention a simple and kind-hearted woman like Xiaoxiao?

It is precisely because of these that Fang Zhiqiang feels that Li Xiaoxiao must be very entangled and uncomfortable now, but he has nothing to do. These two days are the most critical moment for Mingda. We must prepare everything in place and strive to win the battle when the time comes!

After Fang Zhiqiang left, Li Xiaoxiao in the room was about to get up and enter the room to take care of Xiao Ai Li.

However, at this moment, Li Yonggui suddenly said: "Xiao"Xiao, please sit down."

Li Xiaoxiao turned to look at his father with a puzzled look on his face and asked, "What's wrong, Dad?" "

"What's going on between you and Zhiqiang? "Li Yonggui asked straight to the point.

"What's going on? pretty good! "Li Xiaoxiao still insisted.

"Do you think we are all fools? Your mother has just reminded you that we have all been here before. What is going on with you two? Can you hide it from us? "Li Yonggui continued to say in a serious tone.

At this point, Li Xiaoxiao finally suddenly became silent. She knew that what her father said was right. If they didn't see something, Nor would I question myself like this.

But, what should I say about what happened last night?
