Winner Takes All

After Li Shuo went home, he called Wen Xiaohui and said that his assistant would deliver a box of fruit he had brought back from Sanya.

Wen Xiaohui said a few words and asked carefully, "brother Li, are you in a bad mood? Are you ok? "

"It's OK. Why do you ask?" Li Shuo pretended to say it easily.

"Oh, no, I don't have much spirit to listen to your voice. I'm tired."

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

"OK, thank you. Oh, yes... " Wenxiaohui continued, "well, Shao Qun is out of the hospital."

Li Shuo said "Oh" plainly. He didn't care about Shao Qun. He'd better never hear the name related to Zhao Jinxin.

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

"That's good. It's more convenient for us to meet later."

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

Li Shuo smiled and didn't take over.

"By the way, brother Li, I have met several friends recently. They are models, actors and Xiaokai. The conditions are all very good. When are you free, make an appointment to meet them."

"Thank you, Xiaohui, but I haven't adjusted yet. I want to relax myself for a while." It's said that the best way to forget a relationship is to start a new relationship. He has also tried to contact others, such as Qi. As a result, he is extremely embarrassed. Before he feels ready, he doesn't plan to date anyone again.

"I know I know. It's better to be single, really. I thought that I was a wanderer in the flowers, just like a free wolf running on the grassland. Now I have to report in advance for a drink when I go out

Li Shuo is amused by Wen Xiaohui's description of "not conforming to the real thing": "so to speak, it's hard for you to fall in love."

"It's not. The family is too strict." "So, really, it's good to be single," said Wen

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

Most of the bad things in the world are caused by the first use of heart.

The next day, Li Shuo received a text message from Zhao Rongtian, with only a few words: OK, I'll return home tomorrow.

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

He had just booked a ticket here, and his father called. He had a bad feeling.

As expected, Mr. Li said happily, "I heard that your uncle Zhao and aunt are going to visit the branch office back home. By the way, I'm going to come back with your mother. We haven't been back home for more than two years."

Li Shuo can only echo: "yes, I just took you to Sanya to have a look."

"OK, let's have a drink with old Cui, ha ha."

Mrs. Li grabbed the phone: "son, it's not cold in China. What clothes should I take?"

Li Shuo had to patiently analyze what is suitable for her to wear in the current season. At the same time, he sent a message to his assistant and cancelled the ticket to Sanya.

He thought that if he had to see Zhao Jinxin then he would make another excuse.

On the morning of the day after tomorrow, the four elders landed at the capital airport. Li Shuo expected that Zhao Jinxin would not be able to pick up the plane, so he drove to the airport.

When we arrived at the airport, Zhao Jinxin did not come, but Shao Wen did. They were embarrassed to meet each other. They just greeted each other politely.

Li Shuo and his parents had a good time, so he went to greet Zhao Rongtian and his wife.

Zhao Rongtian holds Li Shuo's hand and pats him on the shoulder: "Li Shuo, I asked you to help me last time. Thank you."

Li Shuo said sincerely, "don't say that. I'm sorry that you didn't help me

"Well, it's not your fault. I'll see what the boy is doing when I come back this time." Zhao Rongtian frowned. He didn't know whether he was talking to Li Shuo or talking to himself, "it's strange that he hasn't been like this since he grew up..."

Li Shuo pretended not to hear and took over his mother's luggage: "let's go home."

The two separated at the airport. Li Shuo took his parents and headed home.

On the way, Mr. Li asked Zhao Jinxin, "Hey, what's going on with Jinxin? Long time no work. What can't happen if the old Zhao doesn't cover up? "

"It's nothing. I went to see it. I'm fine. Maybe I'm young and lazy."

"Jinxin really loves playing." The Lifu said, "you forgot how much you made his parents care when he was a child."

"Isn't that when I was a child? What anti discrimination did our son organize when he was a child? He also went to Africa to aid education."

Li Shuo couldn't help crying and laughing: "Dad, I'm not playing with those things, and there's nothing wrong. It's not the same thing at all." Public welfare is a social obligation for him now, not a way of self realization. He has a fixed proportion of public welfare expenditure in his annual financial budget, but he will never do anything as zealously and boldly as he did when he was young. Of course, he is still proud of his excitement and emotion when he was young. How can this be compared with Zhao Jinxin.He doesn't want to compare anything with Zhao Jinxin.

Mr. Li said with a smile, "that's right. It's xiaoshuo that makes us worry."

When he got home, Li Shuo settled his parents and asked his father to make a phone call with general manager Cui. General manager Cui went abroad to discuss business again. For the time being, the project in Sanya is being followed up by the head office of general manager Cui, and the progress is very good.

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

Li Shuo agreed on the surface. The next afternoon, he began to pretend to have a headache and avoided the meeting of the two families.

After dinner, Mr. Li asked Li Shuo curiously, "you really don't know what happened to Jinxin? Didn't you hear anything? He's lost a lot of weight, and he's not very energetic. "

Li Shuo listened to the name, originally pretending to have a headache, which seemed to become true. He said: "I really don't know."

"Oh. By the way, you and I will go to ennan in the morning and have an inspection together. "

Facing the work, Li Shuo couldn't find any excuse to refuse, so he had to promise.

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

Before going to bed, Mr. Li went to take a bath. Li Fu took the opportunity to enter Li Shuo's room. He looked like he was speechless.

"Mom, what's the matter?" Li Shuo patted the bedside. "Do you want to see me? Come and sit down. "

Mrs. Li tightened her shawl and sat beside the bed. She looked at Li Shuo with some dignity: "son......"

Li Shuo frowned at her. He was puzzled by the way he was worried. He was fine before he went to eat, wasn't he What did Zhao Jinxin say?! He was a little nervous at once and held her hand gently: "Mom, what's the matter? There is nothing to hide between us. "

"Are you Ah...... " Mrs. Li said awkwardly, "did you break up with Jin Xin?"

Li Shuo had been prepared for it. Although he was surprised, he didn't show it. He smiled calmly: "Mom, what do you say?" He doesn't know if his mother really knows or guesses.

"Don't tell me the truth. I asked a Guang about his leak in front of me." Mrs. Li sighed, "I can understand why you hide from us. I dare not let your father know. Your father knows. He must be angry."

Li Shuo pacified: "Mom, we are all adults. It's free love. Even if dad knows it, there's nothing to be angry about. Besides..." He lowered his eyes. "It's divided now, not to mention it."

"Ah!" Mrs. Li breathed heavily. It seemed that she was in a bit of a hurry, but she didn't know how to vent. At last, she swung her fist and hit Li Shuo lightly, "you are really You dare say your father won't be angry! "

Li Shuo said with a wry smile, "Mom, this is our business. Don't let my father know. What's your anger?"

"What am I angry with? I'm so angry with you! Jinxin is not an ordinary person. He is your father's friend and the boss's son. You can't say to dump. "

“……” Li Shuo was speechless.

Mrs. Li shook her head and sighed: "Xiao Shuo, don't look at your feelings so casually. Just do it as you like. Just do it as you like. How can you do this. Jinxin is smaller than you. Maybe there is something to break in his character. Let's break in. It's only a few months. I feel guilty when he is so sad. "

Li Shuo rubbed his eyebrows and his heart. He really felt a headache. He whispered: "Mom, it's not what you think. We do Well, it's a peaceful break-up. "

"Break up peacefully?" Mrs. Li turned up her voice. "Today, Jin Xin has been asking me about you, and I'm so haggard. Do you dare to say that it's nothing to do with you if he becomes like that?

Li Shuo opened his mouth and couldn't refute for a while.

From the perspective of others, he is really more like the "fault party", and it is impossible for him to tell the whole story of their relationship to the public, which is beyond debate.

Mrs. Li said painfully, "xiaoshuo, my mother really wants you to find someone to settle down quickly. At that time, a Guang said that when you and Jin Xin were together, I was very happy. He happened to belong to the sheep. Our two families have a good relationship, which is just a marriage The thing of affection is cannot force, but sometimes also cannot give up casually. Mom still wants you to think about it and solve the problems if you have any. It's not easy to be together because of fate, OK? "

Li Shuo was extremely upset. He would like to tell his mother how much grievance and pain this relationship precipitated in his heart, but he confessed that he had done nothing wrong, but looking at his mother's worried, caring and ardent eyes, he naturally could not say. He can only say, "Mom, you believe me, we break up, is not my reason."

"I know he must have made a mistake when he was not mature, but you need to give someone a chance to correct it, right?" said Lifu? My mother doesn't force you to do anything, I just tell you the truth, even if that person is not Zhao Jinxin, I will say the same. "

No matter how many details, Li Shuo is embarrassed by his face. It's hard to say, and it's useless to say more. Two couples with a large age gap break up. The older ones look smart and the younger ones look decadent. Anyone can have the same judgment as his mother. He had to admit his life and nodded, perfunctorily: "Mom, I know, I know."Mrs. Li patted him on the shoulder and looked at him carefully. With a faint smile, she seemed to have some sadness in her eyes.

Li Shuo was a little hairy in her eyes: "Mom, you go to bed earlier."

Mrs. Li sighed, "sometimes I think it's my fault that I gave you such a good life. Your love will be so rough."

"Then I should thank you, or blame you?" he said

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

Li Shuo gently put his forehead on her: "I will, go to sleep."

After Li Fu left, Li Shuo fell on his bed and thought about their mother and son's conversation. He was helpless and miserable. His mother is 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. Fortunately Zhao Jinxin has gone without turning back.

Just, thinking of meeting Zhao Jinxin tomorrow, tonight is doomed to be sleepless again.
