Chapter 20: cute little one
Xia Shenyue sat on the sofa and looked at the middle-aged woman sitting opposite.
The woman was wearing a couture dress, sitting dignifiedly, her eyebrows habitually tucked slightly, and she looked very serious.
The water glass on the coffee table was steaming, which she had just poured for her.
"Aunt, why are you here?"
"Come and see you, and test your homework by the way. You haven't slackened these days when I'm not here, have you?"
A smile appeared on Lin Jie's face, and she didn't look so serious anymore.
Xia Chenyue shook her head, got up and walked towards the piano.
"What does Auntie want to hear?"
"Let's talk about "Adiline by the Water"."
Lin Jie sat not far from the piano. When she remembered the first note of the piano, she closed her eyes and made a gesture of listening.
But listening to her, she suddenly opened her eyes with a look of anger on her face.
Xia Chenyue didn't see it, just immersed in the world of music, the corners of her mouth raised slightly.
Lin Jie waited until the end of the song before starting to ask questions, with an ugly expression.
"Yueyue, are you in love?"
Xia Chenyue was startled and shook her head.
"You think I can't hear it? Did I forget how I taught you what you said?"
"Remember, but I didn't."
"Even if we didn't talk about it, you still have someone in your heart, right? You children know what love is and what love is? Over the past so many years, I taught you for nothing, didn't I?"
Lin Jie's expression was a little distorted, and she looked a little exhausted.
"Auntie, I have a sense of my own affairs."
"You mean, you've grown up and your wings are hard, I can't control you anymore, right?"
"Auntie, calm down."
Xia Chenyue frowned and her face became cold.
She just played a tune, how could it stimulate Lin Jie.
Lin Jie is a musician, especially good at classical music. She is very accomplished in the piano. Xia Chenyue has been by her side since she can remember, because her parents stay in the laboratory all the year round and can't return for a year. home twice.
She has been growing up under the pressure of Lin Jie, until high school, when Lin Jie left her home to teach a student abroad, she was able to live independently.
Xia Chenyue thanked Lin Jie for raising her, but she was still a little irritable in her heart.
She is like a plant growing in a mold, never able to grow freely.
People are all the same, the older they get, the more they hate others pointing their fingers at them.
Xia Shenyue knew why Lin Jie was so angry. Lin Jie had always told her before that she must not fall in love early, the reason was actually out of concern.
Because Lin Jie's daughter had an accident because of puppy love.
The former Lin Jie, although serious, still makes people feel amiable.
But since Lin Jie's daughter had an accident, she seemed to have injected all her emotions into Xia Chenyue who was beside her, and was more strict, not allowing Xia Chenyue to touch anything she thought was a restricted area.
When Lin Jie's daughter was in the first year of junior high school, she had a boyfriend who was a jerk. It might be a girl of that age who likes bad boys, but Lin Jie didn't know about it.
One day, Lin Jie's daughter went out to play with her gangster boyfriend. When she came back, she met the gangster's so-called boss and the boss' followers.
The still immature girl's body covered with **** is lying in the dirty alley, next to her boyfriend with a **** head.
Lin Jie fainted in anger for a while, called the police, and entrusted the help of her related friends to send the murderers who had a criminal record to prison again.
But she couldn't save anything. After her daughter woke up, she pulled out the needle on her body, stumbled and jumped down from the sixth floor and died on the spot.
Lin Jie returned to the hospital, facing the empty ward and the notice of her daughter's death.
Xia Chenyue saw that kind of pain in her eyes, so much that she endured how much Lin Jie demanded of her later.
But this does not mean that Xia Chenyue must always be obedient.
Xia Chenyue felt that she didn't do anything, that she didn't have a puppy love, she knew Ying Xiao's intentions, she also had feelings, but for this reason she never dared to think deeply.
"I think I'm cool and you've never talked back to me before."
Lin Jie took a deep breath and sat back on the sofa.
"Auntie, this is not talking back, I don't know why you want to define people indiscriminately."
Xia Chenyue's eyebrows were still wrinkled, and she looked straight at Lin Jie.
"Your emotions can't be deceived in music, even if you're not in a relationship, there's definitely something in this regard, Yueyue, you should know that this thing is too harmful, you are so good, you can't be delayed because of this ."
Lin Jie didn't mention another reason, it was the pain in her heart that she couldn't mention.
Xia Chenyue was silent, she didn't want to open Lin Jie's scar, she still wanted to refute, but she didn't seem so confident anymore.
"Auntie, you are overthinking it."
"I hope so, I'm leaving first, and I have other things to do."
Lin Jie didn't intend to leave like this, but remembered her own sadness, and the current situation is not much longer, so she got up and left.
"be careful."
Xia Shenyue sent the person to the door and closed the door.
She looked at the piano with a blank expression.
Distraught, and looking at her homework, Xia Chenyue put down her pen and rubbed her eyebrows.
Ying Xiao was notified by the bell of the result, and the happy ones could fly in place.
But not long after she was happy, she calmed herself down, took out her mobile phone, and called Xia Shenyue.
"Yep?"
Xia Chenyue's voice was lower than before, showing a sense of powerlessness.
"Monitor, what's the matter with you? Are you in a bad mood?"
"Okay, what's wrong?"
"I want to play with you, can I?"
"I'm not in the mood to go out today."
Xia Chenyue twitched the corners of her mouth, but she couldn't be happy.
The troubles have something to do with Ying Xiaoxiao, and Xia Chenyue was very confused.
"Ah...but I really want to take you somewhere."
Ying Xiaoxiao let her voice feel lost and waited for the response from there.
Xia Chenyue was silent for a few moments before the voice reached Ying Xiaoxiao's ears from the other side of the phone.
"Okay, come find me."
"En! Wait for me!"
Ying Xiaoxiao revived herself on the spot, her voice full of vitality.
Xia Chenyue nodded unconsciously, and realized that the people over there were invisible.
In October, the weather is not as hot as before, but there are so many people on the road that it feels very hot and dry.
Holidays are always the peak time for people, and the road is very congested. Fortunately, the traffic is limited, and it is not blocked to the point of immobility.
Xia Shenyue sat in the back seat of the Yingxiao battery car, watching the scenery on the roadside slowly passing by.
"Where are we going?"
"You'll know when it arrives!"
Ying Xiaoxiao looked at Xia Chenyue's face through the rearview mirror, her eyes crooked with a smile.
She wouldn't take Xia Shenyue to any video game city snack street. Those were all tricks Bai Yingting played. Although it only existed in novels, she had her own plans.
Xia Shenyue didn't ask any more, and looked at the scenery on both sides. Ying Xiaoxiao was not riding fast, because there were many cars, so she could clearly see the two figures walking into a barbecue restaurant on the side of the road.
Is that Chen Zhiwen at the same table with him?
