Chapter 45
Chapter 45
At eight o'clock in the evening, Zhou Jianpu and Lu Jiandie finally went home.
Mother Lu cooked a table of meals, and Father Lu opened a bottle of treasured wine. When he saw his children coming back, Father Lu greeted them both with a smile: "You are back? Get ready to eat, what are you doing? It's cold."
Lu's mother turned her eyes around her daughter's calm face, letting go of the worries in her heart.
When she learned that her husband directly asked her adopted son to pick up her daughter, Mother Lu worried that the siblings would not be able to get along well after seeing each other for many years. Now it seems that she was overwhelmed.
Mother Lu was very happy and said with a smile, "I just made it and it's still warming up. Come and eat."
The meal had a warm atmosphere. During the meal, Lu's mother visited Zhou Jianpu several times. She was completely unable to connect the young man with a cold face and alienated temperament six or seven years ago with the gentle, polite and elegant young man in front of her.
It can only be said that Zhou Jianpu has really grown up.
It's a pity that there are no parents involved in this kind of growth, and the child is completely dependent on the child's own struggles.
Thinking of this, Mother Lu also sighed a little, and couldn't help but take the initiative to order more dishes for Zhou Jianpu.
After dinner, Father Lu said that he and Zhou Jianpu would continue to drink some wine and eat side dishes, and asked Mother Lu to go to rest first, and he and Zhou Jianpu would be responsible for cleaning up the dishes.
As for Lu Jiandie, she took the initiative to go back to her room and said to do homework, but Zhou Jianpu swore that this girl was definitely secretly contacting Liu Mengxian.
Father Lu asked Zhou Jianpu in a low voice: "How is it? Look at Xiaodie...?"
Zhou Jianpu looked at Papa Lu with pity: "She is worthy of being my granddaughter, my aunt's niece, and my younger sister."
Not only Liu Mengxian's talent, but also Grandpa Zhou's curiosity and action, and even Zhou Jianpu's tenacity and paranoia, Lu Jiandie has all the characteristics of the current family, which is quite awesome.
Papa Lu's eyes darkened, and his premonition came true.
Father Lu was so worried: "I knew it! I knew it! She suddenly got a bag of chocolates on Valentine's Day last year, so I knew something was wrong!"
Zhou saw that Pu Xin said that the girl was not at the aunt's level, but at the old man's level!
However, considering Papa Lu's heart capacity, he tentatively comforted him: "You have already experienced what happened to my aunt, what is Xiaodie?"
Father Lu said quietly: "Yes, when Mengxian was in the sixth grade, she provoked the school girls to fight in the playground after class, and Xiaodie just got some chocolate, which is really nothing."
Zhou saw Pu a little wanting to laugh, but seeing Papa Lu's sad expression, he explained: "The so-called uncanny craftsmanship of nature, the real beauty lies between heaven and earth, in the stars of the universe. Gu and Xiaodie, who can naturally carry strange ray energy, will naturally Attract others."
If the genetic mutation of the awakened person can carry 10 energy, then people like Liu Mengxian and Lu Jiandie can carry 1 to 2, not much, just the level that human beings can watch, appreciate and understand, and this amount of energy will not endanger themselves.
"You don't need to worry about Xiaodie's safety. I will take Xiaodie with me, and then ask my aunt to teach Xiaodie to practice. She is very talented and should be enough to protect herself."
"You write me a letter of guarantee. I don't ask too much. You just need to guarantee that Xiaodie graduated from high school."
Zhou saw Pu with a smile on his face: "Don't worry, Xiaodie assured me that she will definitely be admitted to university."
As for how to take the test, uh, let's not talk about it for now, let Lu Jiandie talk about it himself.
Only then did Papa Lu heaved a sigh of relief. If my daughter concentrates on her studies, she shouldn't have too much time to think about messy things, right?
"Do well in the exam. Of course children should study more. You were really..."
Thinking of his adopted son's experience of dropping out of junior high school, Papa Lu sighed, "Forget it, let's not talk about the past, tell me, boy, are you really planning to settle down? If you have a good talk with your partner, In the end, you get involved in trouble again, what will your partner do?"
Zhou Jianpu quickly said: "I am sure and must settle down. I opened a consulting company, have a formal business license, and a business permit from the association. It is considered a half-manufacturing profession, and everything is in compliance with the rules!"
Father Lu looked at Zhou Jianpu suspiciously: "Wash your hands in the golden basin?"
Zhou Jianpu thought for a while: "Is it a recruitment?"
Father Lu frowned: "So if you encounter difficult things, you will still go out."
Seeing Pu, Zhou felt that it didn't matter: "The only one who can fight with me in the country is the old woman hiding at the White Tower. Our country is a pure land known to ordinary people and awakened people all over the world."
So what if he is despised by some powerful awakened ones?The trick to biological evolution is the dog!Survival is king!
Besides, he can walk sideways abroad, let alone at home?
Papa Lu didn't believe it: "You're not going abroad anymore?"
He knew that his adopted son had a very troublesome older brother!
Zhou Jianpu: "Come on, if Shi Qing and I are really together, we must let my brother meet."
He drooped his head and said quietly: "Let's go to the Yamato Islands next door. Anyway, they are all broken into islands. Even if my brother and I fight, it will only be broken into pieces."
Lu's father's black line: "Enough! It will set off a typhoon and cause troubles to the coastal areas!"
But since Zhou saw Pu even thought about taking Ye Shiqing to see his brother, it showed that he was serious.
Thinking of this, Father Lu corrected his attitude and first warned Zhou Jianpu: "Your situation is special. According to you, that man named Ye Shiqing is an ordinary person, and he doesn't understand your world at all."
"You insist on talking to him because you rashly dragged him into your world. No matter whether he and you can get along in the future, or even if he hates you in the end, you have the responsibility to protect his life."
Father Lu is the son of Mr. Zhou, he naturally stepped on the threshold of this world.
But Papa Lu stopped at the door very vigilantly. He could know and understand the things in the circle through various channels, but Papa Lu never took the initiative, and would even avoid related events and circles.
Because he chose the life of an ordinary person, his wife is an ordinary person, and he needs to protect his wife and daughter.
...And he was fed up with the excitement brought by the old man and the big girl!He wants to be a normal person!
Zhou Jianpu nodded slowly, expressing that he heard it in his heart.
"You are right, I will pay more attention to Shi Qing's safety."
Papa Lu's expression softened slightly: "The world of the awakened is too cruel, contrary to common sense and ethics. If he can't accept it in the future, you can't pester him. Can you do it?"
Zhou Jianpu was silent, he pursed his lips, his stubborn expression was almost exactly the same as Lu Jiandie's before.
"...If it was before, I think I can take a step back and try to maintain the relationship with him as an ordinary friend. But it is a bit difficult now. He is a very serious, simple, and very hard-working person. Seeing him, I will I feel that being alive is a very meaningful and valuable thing.”
"I can not do it."
Father Lu clicked his tongue, this is the most troublesome situation.
In this way, this love can only succeed, not fail, no wonder the adopted son came to learn from it, this is fear.
Father Lu said solemnly: "Then face this love war with the mentality that you must succeed! Where is the situation now?"
Zhou saw Park cheer up: "We have a tacit understanding with each other, he knows that I like him, he also has a good impression of me, and is willing to fall in love with me."
Father Lu: "Yes, this is a good start, then what you have to do next is to slow down."
Seeing Park, Zhou humbly asked for advice: "Slow down?"
"Yes, people are emotional creatures. Emotions come and go quickly. Maybe you can make him emotional and agree to marry you if you pursue the victory now, but what about after that? After the passion passes, maybe he will start to reflect and talk to you." Regret, if there is another awakened person disrupting the situation at this time, you are likely to end up in divorce."
Father Lu and his girlfriend have been running for eight years. How could there be no emotional crisis during this period?
"I'm tired, I've lost my passion, my love has been flattened by life, and I'm thinking about whether it's worth it to continue living such a bland, even trivial life with you... Try to get these things done before marriage."
He sighed: "To put it bluntly, when a man and a woman get married, if one party repents after marriage, and there are children as burdens, people will have the idea of bearing it for the children, but the person you like is of the same sex as you, so you will always be married. The only thing that sticks together is love."
"It's hard to keep love fresh. You need to let him tolerate your shortcomings and keep seeing your strengths. Every day brings new stimuli and unknowns."
Having said that, Father Lu looked at Zhou Jianpu.
"It's the same for you. Now that you see Ye Shiqing's strengths, does he have no weaknesses? Do you want to let go in the future? Do you not like him anymore? Have you considered it?"
Zhou Jianpu shook his head: "No, listening to his voice can clear my brain, even if I don't love him anymore, I won't let go."
Father Lu sneered, at this moment he was very much like Mr. Zhou: "Really? Then what if one day his ability doesn't work for you?"
Seeing Park, Zhou was stunned.
Yes, he doesn't know why Ye Shiqing's voice wakes him up. If one day, Ye Shiqing becomes no different from the people around him, will he continue to love?
This love originally originated from a special reason. If this reason was gone, would he still notice Ye Shiqing, an ordinary person?
Father Lu continued to poke Zhou Jianpu ruthlessly: "If he is out of everyone's eyes, if he is not special to you, how can you say that you will always love him?"
"Xiao Pu, you are an S-level awakened person. Maybe you are so successful in this circle that no one can match you. You have evolved to a level that we can't understand. You are no longer the same creature as us. Qualified to look down on everything..."
"But you shouldn't, or it's not suitable to bring this kind of conceit into your relationship!"
"Take off the shell of your body, get rid of his special ability to wake you up, just stare at this person, and ask yourself, do you really like that young man?"
"If you are not an awakener, if he has nothing special, would you be willing to be with him?"
Father Lu emphasized, "Before that, you have to figure out what you want, otherwise you're just playing with your feelings! You're a scumbag!"
Seeing that Pu Ru was struck by lightning, Zhou fell into silence.
No one had ever talked to him about these things. Father Lu's words pierced his heart like a sharp sword. He drank the wine one after another with a gloomy expression.
Just when Papa Lu stared at his adopted son bitterly, and was about to continue speaking, Zhou Jianpu suddenly raised his head and looked over.
Father Lu was startled.
Zhou saw that Pu's eyes had changed. His dark eyes were like black metamorphic rock deposited deep in the earth's crust for countless years, without any light. At this moment, Papa Lu felt that there was no living thing in front of him, only an ancient and silent object.
"...Before I met Shi Qing, I was like this."
Zhou Jianpu closed his eyes, and then opened them again, his eyes became more lively.
"If one day, I am not an awakened person, and he has nothing special, I think I will still be attracted to him."
"It's just... It may take me a long time to see his goodness. After all, people and people are impatient to understand the connotation of another person."
"Thinking about it..."
Zhou Jianpu said seriously: "I am very glad that I am an awakener."
Thank goodness for meeting someone who reignites the love of his life after his future has been warped into bizarre forms.
Seeing such an adopted son, Lu's father heaved a long sigh.
He was really an angel with broken wings in his previous life.
Father Lu: "Then cheer up! Although you have a lot of disadvantages, you can turn these disadvantages into advantages!"
Seeing Pu, Zhou immediately stood up: "How do you say?"
"Don't take the initiative to say, you have to let Ye Shiqing slowly discover your differences, let him arouse his desire to explore, and at the same time let him understand your devotion, tolerance and concerns for him."
The expression on Lu's father's face was particularly cunning.
"As I said before, people are emotional animals, and they are also creatures that are easily deceived and even deceive themselves. No matter how many shortcomings you have, he can choose to ignore them."
"So many celebrities have a lot of dirty stuff, why do fans still like it? They wear filters and pretend they can't see it! As long as you promise to keep Ye Shiqing from losing fans and turning back on you for the rest of your life, you will win .”
"Let him not let you go, let him have a sense of responsibility for you, let him pity you, let him love you, he has invested so much emotion, the sunk cost is so high, even if you have one or two shortcomings, as long as he can continue Feel your love for him, and he won't leave."
Seeing that Pu looked at his adoptive father with a new look, Zhou said slowly, "You are worthy of being Grandpa's son."
He is so naive!His adoptive father is not an ordinary person in the public sense at all!Obviously a fisherman!
