Chapter 60

After Li Shuo went home, he called Wen Xiaohui and said that the assistant would send him a box of fruits brought back from Sanya.

Wen Xiaohui said a few words, and asked cautiously, "Brother Li, are you in a bad mood? Are you okay?"

"It's okay, why are you asking that?" Li Shuo pretended to be relaxed.

"Oh, no, just listening to your voice doesn't make you feel good, you're tired."

"Well, a little bit, eat the fruit while it's fresh."

"Okay, thank you. Oh right..." Wen Xiaohui continued, "Well, Shao Qun has been discharged from the hospital."

Li Shuo gave a flat "oh", he didn't care about Shao Qun, and it was best never to hear this name related to Zhao Jinxin.

"He and Cheng Xiu are going to move back to the capital, just recently."

"Well, it will be easier for us to meet in the future."

"Yes, yes, with our support, Shao Qun will definitely not dare to bully Cheng Xiu in the future."

Li Shuo smiled and did not continue.

"By the way, Big Brother Li, I've met a few friends recently. There are models, actors, and Xiaokai. The conditions are very good. When are you free, make an appointment to meet."

Li Shuo chuckled: "Xiaohui, thank you, but I haven't adjusted it yet. I want to relax by myself for a while." It is said that the best way to forget a relationship is to start a new relationship. He has also tried to contact others. , like Xiao Qi, who ended up being so embarrassed that he didn't plan to date anyone again until he felt ready.

"I understand, I understand, it's better to be single, the jet lag of true love. I think back then, Mr. I was a prodigal son who lingered in the flowers, just like a free wolf running on the grassland. Now I have to go out for a drink before I go out to drink. Report, alas."

Li Shuo was amused by Wen Xiaohui's description of "not matching the real thing": "So, it's hard for you to fall in love."

"No, the family is too strict." Wen Xiaohui said with a smile, "So, really, it's good to be single."

"Well, it's good to be single." Li Shuo also sighed.

Most of the bad things in this world are because of the first use of the heart.

The next day, Li Shuo received a text message from Zhao Rongtian, with only a few words: OK, I will go back to China tomorrow.

Li Shuo decided to run back to Sanya today, otherwise if he was in Beijing, it would be impossible not to meet.

He had just booked a plane ticket here when his dad's phone called, and he suddenly had a bad premonition.

Sure enough, Mr. Li said happily: "I heard that your Uncle Zhao and Auntie are going back to China to inspect the branch. By the way, let's see your son. Your mother and I plan to come back with them. We haven't returned to China for more than two years."

Li Shuo could only echo: "Yeah, I just happened to take you to Sanya to see."

"Okay, let's have a drink with Lao Cui, haha."

Mrs. Li snatched the phone: "Son, is it cold in the country? What clothes should I bring?"

Li Shuo had to patiently analyze for her what to wear in the current season, and at the same time sent a text message to the assistant to cancel the flight to Sanya.

He thought that if he had to see Zhao Jinxin at that time, he would find another excuse.

In the morning of the day after tomorrow, the four elders landed at the Capital Airport. Li Shuo expected that in Zhao Jinxin's state, he couldn't get through the phone, so he should not come to pick up the plane, so he drove to the airport.

When we got to the airport, Zhao Jinxin really didn't come, but Shao Wen came. They were a little embarrassed when they met, and they just greeted politely.

Li Shuo got close to his parents, and then went to chat with Zhao Rongtian and his wife.

Zhao Rongtian took Li Shuo's hand and patted him on the shoulder: "Li Shuo, I asked you to help me last time. It was an unkind request, thank you."

Li Shuo said sincerely: "Don't say that, it's a little hard work, but it really didn't help, I'm very embarrassed."

"Hey, I don't blame you for this. When I come back this time, I have to see what this kid is doing." Zhao Rongtian frowned, not knowing whether he was talking to Li Shuo or talking to himself, "He grew up. It hasn't been like this since, it's weird..."

Li Shuo pretended not to hear and took the fucking luggage: "Let's go, let's go home."

The two families separated at the airport, and Li Shuo drove his parents straight to the house.

On the way, Mr. Li asked about Zhao Jinxin: "Hey, what's the matter with Jinxin? It's been a long time since I went to work. Lao Zhao didn't say anything secretly. Could something have happened?"

"It's okay. I went to see it. The person is good. Maybe I'm young and lazy."

"Jin Xin really likes to play." Mrs. Li said, "You forgot how much he made his parents worry about when he was a child, the devil's naughty angel."

"Isn't that when I was a child? When I was a child, our son organized some anti-discrimination sex, and even went to Africa to teach."

Li Shuo didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Dad, what I do is not for fun, and there's nothing wrong with it. It's not the same thing at all." For him now, public welfare is a social obligation, not a way of self-realization. There is a fixed percentage of public welfare expenditures in the annual financial budget, but he will never do anything with the enthusiasm and fanfare he did when he was young. Of course, he is still proud of his passion in his youth. How can this be compared with Zhao Jinxin.

He didn't want to compare anything with Zhao Jinxin.

Mr. Li smiled and said, "That's right, it's Xiaoshuo who saves us worry."

When he got home, Li Shuo settled his parents, so he asked his father to have a phone call with Mr. Cui. Mr. Cui went abroad to discuss business. The project in Sanya was temporarily followed up by the people from the head office of Cui, and the progress was made. Very good.

Li Shuo plans to invite Zhou Jinxing out for a meal tomorrow, and tell his father about the project in detail. Unexpectedly, Zhao Rongtian made an appointment for dinner the next day.

Li Shuo ostensibly agreed, but in the afternoon of the next day, he started to pretend to have a headache and avoided the gathering of the two families.

After returning from dinner, Mr. Li asked Li Shuo curiously, "You really don't know what happened to Jinxin? Didn't you hear any rumors? He has lost a lot of weight, and he is not very energetic."

When Li Shuo heard the name, what was originally a fake headache seemed to have become real, and he said, "I really don't know."

"Oh. By the way, you can go to Ennan with me tomorrow morning to investigate together."

Faced with work, Li Shuo could no longer find excuses to shirk, so he had to agree.

Mrs. Li glanced at Li Shuo strangely and said nothing.

Before going to bed, Mr. Li went to take a bath, and Mrs. Li took the opportunity to enter Li Shuo's room, looking like she was hesitant to speak.

"Mom, what's the matter?" Li Shuo patted the bedside, "Are you looking for me? Come and sit."

Mrs. Li tightened her shawl, sat beside the bed, and looked at Li Shuo dignifiedly: "Son..."

Li Shuo frowned and looked at her. He was very puzzled by his preoccupied look. It was obviously fine before he went to eat. Could it be... What did Zhao Jinxin say? ! He was suddenly a little nervous, and held her hand gently: "Mom, what's the matter? What's the matter between us."

"Are you...hey..." Mrs. Li said embarrassedly, "Did you break up with Jinxin?"

Li Shuo was prepared in his heart. Although he was surprised, he didn't show it. He smiled calmly: "Mom, what did you say." He didn't know if he really knew or guessed.

"Don't hide it from me, once Aguang leaked something in front of me and was asked by me." Mrs. Li sighed, "I can understand why you hide it from us, but I dare not let your father know that you Dad will be pissed when he finds out."

Li Shuo reassured: "Mom, we are all adults, and we are in free love. Even if Dad knows about it, there is nothing to be angry about. Besides..." He lowered his eyes, "Now that we have broken up, there is no need to mention it. already."

"Oh!" Mrs. Li sighed heavily, and seemed to be a little out of breath, but she didn't know how to vent, and finally raised her fist and beat Li Shuo lightly, "You really... You dare to say that your father won't be angry! "

Li Shuo smiled bitterly: "Mom, this is our business, just don't let my dad know, why are you angry?"

"What am I mad about? I'm just mad at your character that attracts bees and butterflies! Jinxin is not an ordinary person. He is your father's friend and the boss's son. You can't just dump it."

"..." Li Shuo was speechless.

Mrs. Li shook her head and sighed: "Xiao Shuo, don't take your relationship so casually, just take it easy, you can split it casually, how can it be done. Jinxin is younger than you, so maybe her personality needs to be adjusted. It's only been a few months, you can see how sad he is, and I feel guilty."

Li Shuo rubbed his brows and felt a splitting headache. He said softly, "Mom, things are not what you think, we really... um, we can't get along, we broke up peacefully."

"Break up peacefully?" Mrs. Li raised her voice, "Jin Xin has been asking me about you from side to side today, and people have become very haggard. You dare to say that he has nothing to do with you like that?

Li Shuo opened his mouth, but could not refute for a while.

From the perspective of others, he is indeed more like the "fault party", and it is impossible for him to disclose the ins and outs of the relationship between the two of them.

Madam Li said sadly: "Xiao Shuo, my mother really wants you to find someone to settle down quickly. I was so happy when Aguang said that you and Jinxin were together, he happened to be a sheep, and our relationship is still different. Well, it's like kissing and kissing...Emotional matters can't be forced, but sometimes you can't just give up. Mom still wants you to think about it, and resolve any conflicts. It's not easy to be together by fate, okay? it is good?"

Li Shuo felt extremely uncomfortable. He wanted to tell his mother how much grievance and pain this relationship had left him in his heart, and he admitted that he had done nothing wrong, but looking at his mother's worried, caring and earnest eyes, he naturally couldn't say it. He could only say lightly: "Mom, you believe me, we broke up, it's definitely not my reason."

Mrs. Li said earnestly: "I know, he must have made a mistake immature, but you want to give people a chance to correct, right? Mom is not forcing you to do something, I just explain it to you, even if that person is not. Zhao Jinxin, I would say the same."

No matter how many details, Li Shuo can't say it out of face, and it's useless to say more. Two couples with a big age gap broke up. Pretty damn judgmental. He had no choice but to nod his head in resignation, and said perfunctorily, "Mom, I know, I know it."

Mrs. Li patted him on the shoulder, looked at him carefully, smiled lightly, and seemed to have a little sadness in her eyes.

Li Shuo looked a little hairy by her: "Mom, go to bed earlier."

Mrs. Li sighed softly: "Sometimes I think, it's my fault that you gave birth to you so well that your love life has been so bumpy."

Li Shuo laughed and said, "Then should I thank you, or should I blame you?"

"It doesn't matter if you blame me, Mom, as long as you are happy, that's enough."

Li Shuo gently pressed her forehead with his forehead: "I will, go to sleep."

After Mrs. Li left, Li Shuo fell back on the bed, thinking about the conversation between their mother and son, he was really helpless and uncomfortable. His mother was right. According to her mother's idea, if his father knew that he "dumped" Zhao Jinxin, he would be furious. Fortunately, they have been divided, and fortunately... Zhao Jinxin has left without looking back.

However, thinking about seeing Zhao Jinxin tomorrow, I am destined to have no sleep tonight.
