this life

Chapter 22

At noon the next day, I was woken up by the ringing of my mobile phone. It was my mother who called me. When I picked up the phone, my mother asked me how I spent New Year's Day, whether work went well yesterday, and so on.I answered like a standard answer.Wang Shaochong got up and went to the toilet after being woken up.By the time he came back, I had finished calling.Wang Shaochong climbed onto the bed, got into the bed, and stretched his freshly washed hands into my pajamas coldly.He didn't open his eyes, put his arms around my waist, and leaned against me.Rubbed his head against the outside of my arm.I whispered: "It's still so comfortable." I turned around and hugged him into my arms. He buried his head in my chest, and my chin was against his head. The two of us hugged each other like this. No talking, only hearing each other's breathing and heartbeat.This is what we mean by reconciliation, yesterday's incident is written off.We then took a warm nap.

Woke up at three o'clock in the afternoon.Wang Shaochong saw the time and asked me to get up and get dressed.Said to take me out to eat.I asked where to go.He replied: "My house!" I stopped the movement of my hands, "What? Your house? This is too sudden."

Wang: "Why, seeing your parents-in-law and mother-in-law are nervous."

I didn't argue at all with the meaning of the title "father-in-law and mother-in-law". "No, why didn't you tell me in advance, besides, is it appropriate to go to your house so soon? No, what capacity did I go with? Are you a friend?" I was a little incoherent.

Wang: "Daughter-in-law, what else can I do?"

Me: "I'm not joking with you now. Take it seriously."

Wang Shaocong put away his hippie smile, and said solemnly: "Bao'er, don't be afraid, my parents are very nice and won't do anything to you. I'm also serious. You are my daughter-in-law, so I must treat you as my daughter-in-law." I entered the door with my identity."

Me: "Can your parents accept that you bring a man back to meet the parents?"

Wang: "Well, yes. Stop talking nonsense and get dressed quickly. We have to do some shopping."

I have not yet recovered from the shock, "Even if I am heterosexual, this speed is too fast. What's more, I am not mentally prepared for this." In fact, neither of us has confirmed a relationship yet, and now we are going to Going to meet the parents seems a bit out of the ordinary.

Wang: "Why don't we just have a meal together? I spend New Year's Day with them every year, and this year is no exception. I can't leave you alone at home. I'll eat and drink by myself. How can I bear it?" Well. You just obediently go with me, it's the most suitable, if you feel embarrassed, just say you are my friend, don't say anything else, that's all right." Hearing what Wang Shaochong said, I just I can bite the bullet and agree.After tidying up in a hurry, we rushed to their house.

I squeezed the steering wheel nervously along the way.I was a little distracted while driving, but fortunately there were not many cars on the road, so there was no danger.Wang Shaochong's house is a bit far away, and it took him more than an hour to get there. The road conditions are pretty good today. If there is a traffic jam, it will take less than two hours.No wonder Wang Shaochong wanted to rent a house.Wang Shaochong has a car but never drives it. Every time he goes out to run errands, I drive it.He said he was colorblind and couldn't drive.I wonder why people who are colorblind can get a driver's license.He said he got it the day after tomorrow, and I can only act like a fool to show that I understand.

As soon as we entered the house, Wang's mother came to greet us. Wang Shaochong's mother was surprised when she saw me, and then she smiled. She warmly invited me to sit down, poured me a cup of tea, and said that dinner would be ready soon.Wang Shaochong's father sat there without being angry but mighty, which made me nervous all over my body.Father Wang said, "Xiao Wang and my Shao Chong are colleagues?"

Me: "Well, an outlet, I'm talking to the public."

Dad Wang: "Oh, it's good. If Shao Chong has any problems at work, you can teach him a lesson. You're welcome. My son is just too casual and has no rules."

Me: "Oh, no, he is very serious about his work. Uncle, don't worry."

Mama Wang: "Stop chatting, come and eat quickly."

Wang's mother's cooking skills are really good, but I was so nervous that I didn't have a good taste. I guess Wang Shaochong's cooking skills are inherited from his mother.After dinner, Wang Shaochong took me to his room, and he showed me the photos of his student days.When he was a child, he looked like a hooligan, but when he grew up, he became a lot more refined, but he was still a ruffian in his bones.I was chatting with Wang Shaochong about his childhood, Wang's mother called Wang Shaochong out, and I was alone looking through the bookshelf to see what was new.When I picked up a book, a photo suddenly fell out of it.Above is a photo of Wang Shaochong with another boy.Wang Shaochong smiled happily, and so did the boy, with a look of happiness on his face.Looking carefully, this boy is somewhat similar to me.I remembered how surprised Wang's mother was when she saw me when I entered the door just now.These made me think of some possible hypotheses, and at this moment Wang Shao rushed back.He saw the photo I was holding in my hand.He put down the fruit plate in his hand and grabbed it.I smiled awkwardly and said: "Eat fruit, my mother just washed it." My guess seems to have been confirmed.But I didn't say anything, but ate the fruit.It is rare to see Wang Shaochong so flustered, he has always been very calm, why is it because of a photo, or because of the person in the photo.I don't know all this, and I don't want to know.Why do you want to care about his past like a woman? What's more, maybe it won't be long before I will become his past.We are nothing more than companions now, what else can we do for the rest of our lives.Thinking this way, I seemed to have escaped from the matter of the photo, but fell into heartache again.

After staying at Wang Shaochong's house for a while, we left because everyone had to go to work the next day.All the way back, we were both silent.I could feel Wang Shaochong looking at me from time to time, and I pretended to drive seriously without looking sideways.When I got home, I took off my clothes and went into the bathroom. I turned on the shower and prepared to take a shower. As soon as the water was hot, I saw Wang Shaochong push open the bathroom door and come in.Without waiting for me to ask, he pushed me against the bathroom wall and kissed me furiously.

Back on the bed, I was a little tired, I closed my eyes and hugged Wang Shaochong's waist, and fell into a deep sleep.
