Bamboo horses in the morning and evening

Chapter 17

The situation became that Zhou Huaisheng and Lin Zhiyi were sitting on the sofa, while Lu Qifan and Zhou Zhimeng were standing by the coffee table, undergoing two interrogations. Zhou Zhimeng wanted to act coquettishly and get away with it, but was frightened by Lin Zhiyi. Stand up straight now.

He put his hands behind his back again, and secretly tugged Lu Qifan's sleeve, telling him to speak carefully.

Lin Zhiyi saw it, and said coldly, "Stand apart."

Zhou Zhimeng took a step aside aggrieved.

How did the situation develop like this?Why did his daddy and baby daddy look so angry?Lu Qifan obviously came to give him a gift.

"Xiaoqi," Lin Zhiyi looked up at Lu Qifan's face, and asked, "When did you come? How many times have you been here? Did you tell your parents? Also, why is Juanjuan crying?"

Zhou Huaisheng could no longer hold back his anger, and there was no love in his eyes when he looked at Lu Qifan, and he said seriously: "Answer honestly."

It was obvious that Lu Qifan also felt it. He changed from his previous idleness, straightened his back, and replied seriously: "I just arrived in the afternoon, this is the second time, the last time was in October, my parents don't know, Juanjuan— —”

Zhou Zhimeng said: "I was crying because I was moved. I thought I was going to celebrate my birthday alone. Xiao Qi didn't bully me. Don't get me wrong."

Zhou Huaisheng didn't let him interrupt, but still asked Lu Qifan: "Tell me clearly, what time will you arrive?"

"Get off the plane at 03:30, and arrived at the hotel at around 40:[-]." Lu Qifan showed the taxi record to Lin Zhiyi and Zhou Huaisheng.

Lin Zhiyi checked the time, and it was indeed the same as what Lu Qifan said, it was ten past five, which meant that the two children had only met for less than half an hour, so he finally felt relieved.

It's not that he doesn't trust Xiao Qi, it's just that he is frightened by Juan Juan's teary eyes.

This picture will have to appear at least three or four years before he can reluctantly accept it.

Not even a small one.

"Xiao Qi, I'm sorry, uncle misunderstood you." Lin Zhiyi said.

"It's okay, uncle, you should be angry, I can understand."

Lu Qifan was very calm, as if he had been prepared for a long time. When the door was knocked, he turned around and opened it, and asked someone to bring the ordered dinner to the table. He put the cake in the middle, went back to the living room, and asked: " Uncle, I was afraid that Juan Juan would not be able to go to the restaurant in time for class in the evening, so I ordered a table of dishes in advance, and the portions are quite large, so you can just eat here, or do you have other arrangements?"

"No, just eat here, thank you Xiaoqi, you are very thoughtful."

The atmosphere finally died down and calm was restored, Zhou Zhimeng said in a grudge, "Why are you so angry?"

Zhou Huaisheng and Lin Zhiyi looked at each other awkwardly.

What are you angry about?

The little pig from Qi Lu's family came to tease Cabbage, and Qi Cabbage was so stupid that he still devoted himself to Xiaozhu, even hiding such a big thing as the two of them secretly meeting in October, and he kept it from them.

The gifts all over the place, the diamond bracelet on the wrist, the cakes and dishes on the dining table, the two children's tacit gaze at each other, and their sneaky tricks...all were noticed by the two adults.

Zhou Huaisheng sighed, and Lin Zhiyi patted his leg, "What else can I do? Accept it slowly."

Today is Juju's birthday.

The child already has a sense of independence. He is training alone in the capital, and he is homesick. Lin Zhiyi has been chatting with Zhou Huaisheng to discuss how to make Juanjuan overcome his love for home, but he did not expect that when the time comes to separate, the child adapts very well. Hurry up, but parents can't accept it for a long time.

Lin Zhiyi smiled helplessly, walked over and rubbed Xiao Qi's ears, "Uncle's tone of voice was not good just now, are you angry with Uncle?"

Lu Qifan shook his head.

"It's not that uncle doesn't allow it, but you are still young."

"I understand that everything will wait until I am an adult, and then we will start to fall in love—"

Before Lu Qifan finished speaking, Zhou Zhimeng shouted: "What, why wait until you become an adult? You can go to university first and then talk about it. Don't think about such nonsense!"

Lin Zhiyi thought that Lu Qifan was going to get angry, but Lu Qifan didn't respond at all, and nodded, with a cute appearance of whatever he said.

Zhou Zhimeng lit a squib, only to be angry with himself, and went to untie the tie of the cake box sullenly.

Zhou Huaisheng and Lin Zhiyi also bought him gifts, and after unwrapping the gifts and blowing out the candles, Zhou Zhimeng closed his eyes and made a wish.

After opening his eyes, he saw three people sitting beside him.

Zhou Zhimeng suddenly felt so happy.

No matter what, no matter how far away, his family will always surround him and love him.

After dinner, Zhou Zhimeng asked the teacher for leave, and the four of them went shopping in the surrounding streets together. The adult walked in front, and Zhou Zhimeng grabbed Lu Qifan's arm viciously, "I told you not to say that Talking!"

Lu Qifan took Zhou Zhimeng's hand, "What wish did you make? Is it related to me?"

"No!"

Lu Qifan smiled slightly.

Zhou Zhimeng was in a state of confusion, "Xiao Qi, why did you suddenly become... I wasn't ready, you just..."

"What do you need to prepare?" Lu Qifan held Zhou Zhimeng's hand tightly, and said slowly, "Don't you still have two years to get used to it?"

Zhou Zhimeng's face started to feel hot again.

Lin Zhiyi stopped, turned around and coughed twice.

Zhou Zhimeng immediately shook off Lu Qifan's hand, ran forward and hugged Lin Zhiyi's arm, "Little daddy..."

Lin Zhiyi looked at him with a half-smile, Zhou Zhimeng buried his head even lower.

"Okay, little daddy knows that Juan has grown up." Lin Zhiyi pinched Zhou Zhimeng's earlobe, stroked his fluffy curly hair, and suddenly hugged him: "Happy birthday, baby."

Zhou Zhimeng buried his face in Lin Zhiyi's shoulder.

After returning from shopping, Zhou Huaisheng went to the front desk to open a room, and he didn't forget to call Lu Qifan, "Xiao Qi, come here, uncle will open another room for you."

Lu Qifan glanced back at Zhou Zhimeng, then walked obediently to Zhou Huaisheng's side.

After Zhou Zhimeng lay in bed, he talked to Lin Zhiyi for a long time, pouring out all the hardships he had suffered during the training camp. Lin Zhiyi left Zhou Zhimeng's room at almost twelve o'clock, and Zhou Zhimeng was also sleepy. I yawned and was about to go to bed when my phone rang.

Lu Qifan's low voice came from inside.

"One minute and seven seconds left."

"What?" Zhou Zhimeng didn't react.

"There's one minute and three seconds left, and it's twelve o'clock."

"Oh."

Zhou Zhimeng didn't speak anymore, just quietly waiting for twelve o'clock to arrive, when he heard Lu Qifan's breathing.

Seconds finally turned around the last time, Zhou Zhimeng watched the number on the phone screen return to zero, "It's twelve o'clock."

"Jujuu, happy birthday."

Zhou Zhimeng curled his lips, "Thank you, Xiaoqi."

"I will spend every birthday with you in the future."

Zhou Zhi paused and said, "Okay."

After the training camp, Zhou Zhimeng returned to Wangcheng and began to make final preparations for the upcoming competition.It may be that his parents gave him a lot of support, and the pressure was not so great, and Zhou Zhimeng himself was very stable in the exam, so after several rounds of competition, he has maintained a good state, and even if there are small mistakes, he can adjust in time.

Lu Qifan didn't come to disturb him, but just sent a message occasionally, wishing him all the best.

Time passed quickly, not long after the start of the third year of high school, Zhou Zhimeng received the admission letter from Capital University.

He rushed directly to the Dingsheng Group headquarters of his little father, trotted all the way to the president's office, and threw himself into Lin Zhiyi's arms.

"It's finally over, little daddy."

Zhou Zhimeng originally thought that school would only start in September, and now it's only the end of March, and there are still more than five months left, so he can still spend time with Lu Qifan slowly.

Unexpectedly, the Capital University issued a new rule for recommending students to enter the school in advance. Zhou Zhimeng didn't want to go, but the teacher in the admissions office disagreed, "The class that starts now is a compulsory course for the mathematics experiment class. It will start in September. It won't come back on after that."

After hearing this, Zhou Zhimeng's eyes went dark.

He struggled for a long time, but he still walked to the building in the first year of high school. Lu Qifan just came back from playing ball. He threw the ball to his classmates and washed his hands before walking in front of Zhou Zhimeng. When he saw Zhou Zhimeng, his eyes brightened instantly. , "Juanjuan, what's wrong?"

Zhou Zhimeng said apologetically, "Xiao Qi, I'm going to Capital University next month, and I asked the teacher if I can not advance—"

Zhou Zhimeng hardly dared to speak.

The smile on Lu Qifan's face quickly disappeared.

Zhou Zhimeng felt a sour nose, "I didn't expect that, I thought that attending classes in advance was a kind of voluntary registration, and the result was formal classes."

Lu Qifan didn't speak.

"Xiao Qi, I'm sorry, I didn't keep my promise, you can be angry as much as you want."

"It's ok."

Zhou Zhimeng was stunned, Lu Qifan raised his hand and rubbed his hair after a long time, "I expected this possibility, so it's not surprising."

"sorry."

"We are not short of these months, we have been together for 16 years."

Zhou Zhimeng's eyes filled with tears.

"Afterwards, chances to meet may become rare. Can you still promise to miss me once a day?"

Zhou Zhimeng nodded with tears in his eyes, "More than once."

Lu Qifan rubbed the corners of Zhou Zhimeng's eyes with his fingertips, "That's good, wait for me for another two years."

There were a few months of training to prepare the way for the separation. This time, Lu Qifan and Zhou Zhimeng were not too sad. Lu Qifan sent Zhou Zhimeng to the airport, and hugged Zhou Zhimeng in front of several adults. Zhou Zhimeng didn't hide either, he hugged Lu Qifan tightly, and said, "Xiao Qi, be good, don't run to the capital, I will come back to accompany you as soon as I have a chance."

The grown-ups avoided their sights at the same time, and Lu Jincheng finally realized it and asked suspiciously, "When did they start?"

Zhong Ye patted him to signal him to shut up.

In the end, Zhou Zhimeng held back his tears with great difficulty, and reluctantly followed his parents into the boarding gate.

Zhou Zhimeng thought that two years was a long time, but because of the course and distance, they didn't have much time to see each other except for the winter and summer vacations. The four seasons rotated, and two years passed in a blink of an eye.

He had just finished class that day, took out his phone and looked at the class group news, and suddenly remembered that this weekend is Lu Qifan's birthday.
