Someone Wants to Kill You
My Dad exchanged a glance, and the atmosphere became strangely tense.
Li Yao's heart skipped a beat! Was there a story? No, something was amiss? Then he heard his mother grumble, "You are indeed my biological child, but are you your father's biological child...? Ask him." Old Li Comrade stiffened his neck and shouted, "Why aren't you my biological child! Don't you look exactly like me?!"
Li Yao: "..."
Dad, are you insulting me or praising yourself? If you look at your own fat body, would you dare repeat what you just said?
never mind,
Even if you touch him a hundred more times Old Li Comrade would still say the same thing.
Mom ignored Old Li Comrade and said earnestly, "Da Yao, you have to believe that you are our biological son. Think about it, if we were to adopt, we wouldn't have chosen you."
Li Yao: "???"
What's wrong with me? I'm so good-looking! My mom said with considerable regret, "We should have had a daughter. That way, we wouldn't have to worry about our pigs not rooting up our cabbages! We could have just collected a bunch of dowry money when we got married. It would have been so wonderful! Tell me, what can you do now?"
Li Yao: "..."
He really wanted to say: Dad, Mom, your son can earn money now! Look at this shop!
Take a look at your son's bank card.
It's full of money, full of money! But he won't tell Dad parents, because if he did, they'd just turn around and ask him for money so they could travel the world.
Li Yao finally understood.
He was merely a product of their passion, a side effect of love. They were the true lovers, and he was just an accident!
My mother's gaze swept over the pub, and she asked, "You work here now?"
Li Yao: "Yes."
Mom immediately leaned closer. "I think that girl at the bar is pretty, very beautiful, and looks like she'd have a lot of children. I think you might like her type, don't you think?"
Li Yao is going crazy!
He said seriously, "Don't overthink it, we're just colleagues."
My mom immediately gave me a look of disgust. "Are you trying to ascend to heaven or something? You're so pure and detached from worldly desires! Tell me, when are you going to get a boyfriend? You're going to drive us crazy! How long are we supposed to worry about you if you don't settle down? Can't you give your dad and me a break? How can we go out and have fun if you're like this!"
Old Li Comrade: "Exactly!"
Li Yao's face immediately darkened.
So, is your real purpose in coming to visit me this time to see if you two can go on a trip?
Li Yao was already used to this kind of thing, and he calmly said, "You two go have fun, there's really no need to worry about me."
Dad chimed in, "See? I told you Da Yao was very sensible." Then he turned to Li Yao and said, "Your mother and I have worked hard all our lives. We had a bit too much fun during the National Day holiday, so we're planning to go abroad for a trip these next few days. We're getting old, and there are still many places we haven't been to. While we're still in good health, we want to travel around more."
Li Yao: "..."
Okay,
You guessed right.
But Dad is right, it's good to walk around and see more while you're still healthy.
Li Yao asked, "Do you have enough money? I've made some money recently."
Mom waved her hand. "That's enough. I heard from your dad that you've made some money, but don't spend it recklessly. Save it to find yourself a partner!"
Anyway,
My mom talks about finding a partner all the time.
It's like you're not a complete person if you don't have a partner.
Li Yao nodded perfunctorily, "If you don't have enough money, just let me know, and I'll transfer it to your parents."
After giving a few more words of advice, Dad parents left.
As she was leaving, my mother grabbed Chen Xi's hand and said, "This girl is quite pretty. Where is she from? And look over there, what do you think of that young man?"
Li Yao felt a chill run down his spine and, while politely declining, saw the two elders out the door.
call...
Li Yao finally breathed a sigh of relief after watching his parents get into the car. It was a wise choice not to go home for so long!
He had no idea how his parents had raised him.
I think I survived entirely by luck.
Chen Xi, resting her chin on her hand behind the bar, smiled and said, "The uncle and aunt are really nice."
She's cheerful and enthusiastic, which makes her quite likable.
Li Yao rolled his eyes. "Come on! You haven't seen how fierce my mom is, she's terrifying."
Otherwise, how could he have managed to discipline his Dad so well? Chen Xi replied, "He's definitely not the real culprit. The boss's family has a really good relationship; I can tell that."
Yeah?
That's it, isn't it?
Anyway, they're my parents, the closest people in the world, so there's nothing to be ashamed of, even though Dad usually take advantage of Dad own son. This time, they were actually quite considerate; they even told me they were going out and didn't ask me for any money! That's progress! I remember when I was little, my mom would always take away my New Year's New Year Money with all sorts of excuses.
When I was young and didn't understand things, I would lie to myself and say that I was too young and would lose all the money, and that she would keep it for me.
But after keeping it, it never came back! Later, when I grew up, it wasn't so easy to fool me anymore.
Just ask for it directly, I won't give it to you!
Anyway, Li Yao didn't dare to say "Let's give it a try!" Old Li Comrade was kneeling on the washboard, is a cautionary tale.
That washboard was an old item from before, something my mom specially brought with her when we moved. Back then, we already had a washing machine, so when Old Li Comrade saw his mom packing up and taking the washboard away, his face turned black.
This is targeting him! Thinking of some funny things from the past, Li Yao couldn't help but laugh.
Chen Xi looked at it.
I felt very envious.
Many people think these trivial, everyday matters are meaningless; aren't they just boring things? Not at all.
For those who have never had it, and for those who have had it and then lost it, this mundane daily life is an unattainable dream.
Chen Xi thought for a moment. Her father and mother's image was just a faded two-inch photograph. The young man and woman in the photo were smiling brightly and were very good-looking. But what kind of people were they? What were their personalities like? How would they interact with her if they were still alive? She had no memory of any of these things.
When I was little, I watched other children playing, laughing, crying, and crying around their parents, and I saw the expressions on those parents' faces, whether they were happy or impatient.
She felt very envious.
She has the most expensive toys, the most attentive servants, and the most comfortable and spacious princess room...
But she has no parents.
She couldn't even remember the tone of her parents' voices when they called her...
Chen Xi still had a smile on her face, but her eyes had dimmed slightly.
Li Yao sat down by the fireplace again, took out his phone and said casually, "What's there to envy? If you like me, ask my parents to come over often. They'll definitely like you. Just treat them like family."
Chen Xi laughed, her eyes shining. "Mmm."
Li Yao smiled, opened Zhihu, and finally saw that "Jiangzhong Convection" had replied to him.
He was just about to have a chat with this person when he received WeChat message from Big Sis Feng Li next door. "Brother, someone wants to kill you."
This is the fourth update, and I'm so nervous! I hope you all enjoy reading it.
