Chapter 182 (Revised, 2 chapters merged) We are not in a relationship where we can reminisce!
At eleven o'clock in the evening, downstairs of a certain apartment building, a Maybach was hidden under the dim lights. A gust of cold wind swept the withered yellow leaves across the front of the windshield, and two dead leaves fell.
A bony male palm stretched out of the car window, with a scarlet flash between the two fingers.
After a long time, when the cigarette was almost burnt out, Lu Shiqian finally extinguished it.
He took out his mobile phone, pressed the string of numbers that he had memorized, and watched it for a few seconds, then moved his fingers, and an impulse came to his heart, and he pressed it directly.
Li Shujing had just come out of the shower and was wiping her hair when she heard the phone on the bed ringing.
After looking at an unfamiliar number, he hesitated for a while and pressed the connect button.
"Hey, hello, who is that?"
When the tranquility of the night allowed Li Shujing's soft voice to reach Lu Shiqian's ears through the radio waves, he felt his heart skip a beat, and he was inexplicably nervous.
"Hello? Who is it?"
Li Shujing put down the towel, frowned slightly, and was about to hang up the phone when she heard a deep and hoarse male voice: "It's me."
"Lu Shiqian."
As if afraid that she might not hear the voice, the man added.
Li Shujing's heart shrank suddenly, her lips subconsciously pursed, and after a long while she spit out: "Oh, what's up so late?"
Problems?
He himself didn't know what he was trying to do with the call.
Maybe it's because I drank some wine tonight, because of the alcohol.
Lu Shiqian's eyes darkened, he licked his dry lips, and said slowly, "I haven't seen you for many years, I just wanted to ask you..." How are you doing.
"Sorry, we are not in a relationship where we can reminisce."
As if knowing what he wanted to ask, Li Shujing suddenly interrupted him in a cold voice.
Lu Shiqian choked for breath, unexpectedly unable to refute.
In an instant, only the sound of each other's shallow breathing came from each other's ears.
Li Shujing tightly held the fingers of the phone, her eyes seemed to penetrate the heavy curtains, looking at the dark night sky: "Hang up."
There was a "beep", and Lu Shiqian's heart fell instead.
Throwing the phone aside, leaning heavily on the back of the chair, his eyes fell on the dead leaves in front of the car that were blown by the wind, and an inexplicable feeling of depression rose in his heart.
After a long while, he rubbed his face to wake himself up. After his complexion returned to normal, he called the driver to drive.
Li Shujing lowered her eyelashes, watched the screen of the phone gradually go black, took a few deep breaths to calm down, and told herself again and again that the past is over, and no matter what that person wants to do, she can no longer be affected by it.
Remember!Li Shujing.

Ye Lan found out that after her parents went out with Lu Anan for two days, Ye's mother never left Lu Anan's words in front of her. One on top of the other is good.
Even the reticent Father Ye rarely praised Lu Anan.
Mother Ye also bluntly said that being able to meet such a good mother-in-law is a blessing she cultivated in her previous life.
He also specifically told her that she must respect her elders well and not lose courtesy.
Ye Lan nodded after hearing this, and complied softly.
The second day after her parents came back, Ye Lan received a call from Lu Anan, saying that she and McCass would return to Country M today, and also explained a few things about the renovation of the villa's children's room and the customization of wedding dresses, and she said it neatly. hang up the phone.
On the same day, the designer who remodeled the children's room called her and asked her to visit the site and finalize the remodeling plan.
Thinking that the last time I saw the house, I only glanced at it briefly, and I really couldn't remember the layout, so Ye Lan simply took her parents to the villa.
After arriving at the villa, Ye's father and Ye's mother couldn't help being dumbfounded when they saw the ridiculously large and luxurious house.
Mother Ye pulled Ye Lan close to her ear: "Is this house given by Xiao Yao's parents?"
"Well, they said that the house is too small now, and they can't live in it after the baby is born, so they changed it to a bigger one for us."
Ye Lan couldn't laugh or cry when she thought of the way her father-in-law and mother-in-law disliked the house now.
"..."
After hearing this, Mother Ye also choked. The in-laws probably have a different perception of the size of the house than others.
According to their standards, it is estimated that the house in their hometown is not as big as his toilet.
Thinking like this, Mother Ye suddenly remembered the gift card that Xiaoyao's mother had given her, her eyelids twitched, thinking of some possibility, she immediately had the urge to scratch her head and want to go back and find out.
Ye Lan has been communicating with the designer about the renovation of the children's room, but she didn't pay attention to Ye's mother's abnormality.
After the negotiation was settled, on the way home by car, I realized that Mother Ye was a little restless.
"Mom, what's wrong with you? Are you uncomfortable?"
Ye Lan glanced at the rearview mirror and said in surprise.
"It's okay, you concentrate on driving."
Afraid of affecting her daughter's driving, Mother Ye squeezed out a smile.
Ye Lan was dubious and didn't ask any more questions.
As soon as she got home, Mother Ye hurried into the guest room.
Ye Lan walked to the kitchen, and just poured a glass of water to drink, when she saw Ye Mu holding something in her hand, and walked over in a hurry.
''Xiaolan, come and see, how much money is in this card? "
After a while, Father Ye and Mother Ye sat on the sofa blankly, staring blankly at the thin card in Ye Lan's hand.
2000?
They have never seen so much money in their lives.
"Is this bride price... too much?"
Mother Ye looked at her daughter with complicated eyes, and her tone was full of anxiety.
In fact, Ye Lan didn't expect Lu An'an to give such a lot of gifts, but she didn't find it strange when she thought of her arrogant style.
But for parents who have worked so hard for most of their lives and have never seen so much money, it is indeed frightening.
"Mom, you can keep it at ease. Maybe you think it's too much, but in the eyes of Xiaoyao's parents, this 2000 million is like [-] in the eyes of ordinary people. Do you understand?"
Of course Mother Ye understood. According to her understanding, the 2000 million yuan is not money in the eyes of her in-laws!
Thinking about it this way, she seemed to be able to accept it again.
Mother Ye is not a person who is too entangled. After thinking about it, she is relieved.
And with this money, when Xiaolan holds a wedding, they will also have to add a dowry.
He turned his head and said to Father Ye who still hadn't recovered, "Old Ye, only we and Xiaolan know about the bride price, so don't go out and say it."
When Father Ye heard this, he said in a low voice: "Got it, you old woman, I don't have enough sense for this?"
Seeing her parents bickering, Ye Lan smiled and said nothing, and returned the card to Mother Ye, asking her to keep it, and save it for a regular deposit after returning home to earn some interest.

In the ward, Zhao Ting was lying on the bed acting like a spoiled child to Zhao's mother, when she saw the door of the ward was pushed open with a "bang".
The two were caught off guard and were taken aback.
Zhao Ting caressed her heart, and saw Zhao Xinquan walking in with an angry face, followed by her husband, Chen Ningyuan.
Zhao's mother just stood up and was about to curse angrily, but when she saw Zhao Xinquan's gloomy face, she swallowed the words back in an instant.
"Dad..." Zhao Ting called out in a whisper.
"Old man, what's wrong with you, you are so angry?"
Mother Zhao suppressed the timidity in her heart, approached Zhao Xinquan, and said softly.
Zhao Xinquan swung her away violently, and stared directly at her with angry gloomy eyes:
"A loving mother has many defeated children. You have taught them to be good sons and daughters. The son is like this, and the daughter is also like this! One or two of you, you have to piss me off and defeat the Zhao family to be happy, right?"
Zhao's mother was unprepared, and her whole body fell towards the end of the bed, just hitting the bedpost, a huge pain came from the lumbar spine immediately, and her face turned pale.
