let me smell the pheromones

Chapter 101

Lin Pei stayed in his hometown for a while, meeting and visiting relatives every day, and suddenly gained several pounds from eating.When Chris saw him when he went back, he couldn't help but tsk tsk, saying that his thin pointed face before had been eaten into a small round face.

Lin Pei was very ashamed when he and Song Xun ran with great difficulty in the leg muscles that were so tense before. Seeing this, Song Xun turned to comfort him, saying that he was too thin before, but now he is very well-proportioned. Just right.

After Chris knew these words, he couldn't help joking: "I can say all kinds of nonsense in order to chase you."

But eating a little fat is also good. Before school started, Lin Chengxuan took the company staff to the hospital for a physical examination. Lin Pei also went for a full set of examinations. When he got the blood test sheet back, he found that the hemoglobin concentration was barely enough to reach 125g/L.

Finally out of anemia.

On this day, Lin Pei, like most of the students, was lying in front of the desk doing his final homework when he suddenly heard the sound of the door knocking, and his aunt's voice came in through the crack of the door, "Why did Mr. Lin come back at this time?"

Lin Chengxuan replied: "Come back and get a document."

As he spoke, Lin Pei heard the slight creaking sound of leather shoes stepping on the stairs.

Just as the teacher wanted the parents to sign the homework feedback form, Lin Pei casually picked up a pen, and just as he walked to the door of the study, a bell rang through the half-closed door.

There is a call.

Maybe it's just a coincidence, why don't you wait...

Lin Pei hadn't had time to go outside when Lin Chengxuan picked it up, and a calm voice rang out, "Mingyu?"

It's mom.

He subconsciously stopped.

The other end of the phone didn't know what was said, Lin Chengxuan listened quietly for a while, "Your father's health is fine, the doctor said that his resistance is a little weak because of his age, he was much better after hanging the water two days ago, now the old lady is at home Take care of him."

Lin Chengxuan never called her father "Dad" in front of Sheng Mingyu. Maybe there were times when the two were in love, but probably Sheng Mingyu hated her father for having an extra "son". Her face called it that.

The old man had a cold and a fever a few days ago, and Lin Pei knew about it, so he went to the hospital to hang two bottles of water with him.

Lin Pei lightly pressed his fingers on the door frame, and moved his body back, keeping a distance where Lin Chengxuan couldn't see him, but he could hear their chatting.

What Sheng Mingyu said again, Lin Chengxuan hummed a few times, and said before she hung up the phone: "Xiao Pei will be in his third year of high school next year, and we need to help him plan his ambitions in advance, you are his mother..."

"……Oh, I see."

Lin Chengxuan said lightly, "I have the obligation to tell you, but it's up to you to participate or not."

Looking at his expression and look, Lin Pei knew that his mother had probably become a 'hands-off shopkeeper'. Anyway...he, like his father, had no expectations of her.

The last time my grandfather gave Sheng Mingyu's contact information through her father, Lin Pei guessed that Sheng Mingyu should also know his phone number, but she didn't want to have another person to bother her.

When running in the morning the next morning, Lin Pei was so weak that he had no strength. Song Xun watched for a long time and stopped him.

Speaking of running in the morning, Lin Pei didn't intend to drag Song Xun with him. For this reason, he woke up an hour early and sneaked out before seven o'clock.

Unexpectedly, when I opened the door the next day, I saw Song Xun doing warm-up exercises by the side of the road.

"..."

So in the long twilight, another slender figure appeared under the street lamp.

"Why are you unhappy?"

Song Xun thought about several reasons, and finally his eyes fell on Lin Pei's stomach, "Is it—?"

"...I ate some bread before I ran."

Not so hungry.

But this matter really weighed on Lin Pei's heart. Chris's mother remarried and was not in the country, and the other party had no feelings for his father, so he couldn't get effective advice even if he asked.

Song Xun, on the other hand, has a happy family, so perhaps a bystander will know.

So, Lin Pei told him about his parents' grievances and the recent things about Sheng Mingyu.

Song Xun nodded, and after a brief analysis of the relationship in his mind, he probably guessed why he was so awkward, "Do you think that since she ignored you and her biological parents for more than ten years, then Just be unfeeling to the end, why come back to disturb your life again?"

Lin Pei let out a wow, looking at him with eyes full of admiration, "...how did you come up with this idea? In fact, I don't quite understand it myself. Only after you said that did I realize that it seems to be the case."

Song Xun let out a sigh.

In fact, Lin Pei's psychology is easy to understand when he puts it into the relationship between men and women. The relationship he wanted very much before, and the person he wanted very much kept ignoring him. Mutual friends, it is inevitable that there is something weird in my heart.

On the one hand, it is complaining, there are regrets in the heart, or hatred; on the other hand, hatred is actually a secret expectation.

Looking forward to the other party's turning back, but clearly knowing that they can't.

What's more, the other party is not a lover, but his biological mother.

He didn't pierce Lin Pei's little thought that he didn't realize, "Otherwise, I'll accompany you to see her?"

"No..." Lin Pei couldn't do this in his cognition. He was afraid of going to the hospital, afraid of seeing his parents quarreling, afraid of seeing his mother impatient with him, "I don't want to go."

Song Xun clearly understood his concerns.

"I know." He gently encouraged, "We can find someone, we don't need to make a visitor record, and we don't bother her, just go to see her and see how your mother lives."

This sentence touched Lin Pei.

Check out her life.

That was the world that Lin Pei couldn't touch, the world that he wanted to get close to and understand.

But he still hesitated, "But..."

The words are not finished.

He clearly understood that if he broke this exception, he would not be satisfied with just 'look at her'.

He wanted to know why, why she left her husband and son, why she was so cruel that even her parents could abandon her, why she wanted to hang up a nominal marriage with her father like this.

Since you hate them so much, why don't you choose to leave.

"I'm not going."

he said suddenly.

Song Xun looked at him in astonishment. Just a second ago, there was still a slight desire hidden on his face, but at this moment, his attitude became resolute in an instant.

The reason why Schrödinger's cat is still 'alive' is because he has never opened the box. Although he, like everyone else, is looking forward to the ending after opening it, it is still not what he wants.

Throughout last year, the only two words he learned were 'let go' and 'future'.

Don't be obsessed, not attached, go your own way.

At this moment, Lin Pei made a decision.

Sheng Mingyu has been absent from his path for too long, no matter what the facts are, it is her and Lin Chengxuan's story, and has nothing to do with his future.

"Anyway, thank you anyway."

Lin Pei didn't explain too much, just showed him a shallow smile, "Speaking of which, I'm not that unlucky...Come on, run."

As he said that, he stepped on the sneakers under his feet, with a light body, and ran forward quickly amidst the white belly revealed in the early morning.

Song Xun watched quietly behind him, and after a while, he chased after him.

·

Lin Pei was unwilling to open the box, but Song Xun thought about it for a long time, and decided to go to the nursing home by himself.

Sheng Mingyu's ward is on the top floor of the building, on the 24th floor. Ordinary elevators can't take it there, and you need to swipe your card to enter. Visitors from outside also need to register at the front desk and seek approval from patients and family members before entering.

Song Xun's trustee found a relationship, but he didn't completely break the rules, so he asked the nurse to call Sheng Mingyu.

Unexpectedly, Sheng Mingyu agreed.

Song Xun guessed that she didn't even know who she was.

Sheng Mingyu's ward is actually a set of two bedrooms and one living room. When you open the door, you will see a simple and beautiful living room with a large balcony outside. There is a recliner inside and a small round table with An unfinished cup of coffee and a half-read book.

Song Xun sat down on the sofa. There was a door in the room that was not closed. He vaguely saw a towering retro-colored bookshelf cabinet inside. Rows of hardcover books could be seen inside the two glass cabinet doors.

After a while, footsteps came from the master bedroom next to him. He looked up and saw a woman in her 30s wearing a shawl and a pair of house slippers, walking out slowly.

Her hair was very long, and most of it was pulled up and pinned with a very simple jade hairpin. A few strands of long hair fell down and hung down on her neck.

Song Xun looked at her facial features and realized that Lin Pei's cold white skin was originally inherited from her genes. Her eyebrows were curved, her narrow double eyelids were shaped like almonds, her nose was tall and straight, and there were only a few wrinkles at the corners of her eyes. There is no need to guess that she was a standard beauty when she was young.

She doesn't wear makeup on her face, maybe because of her poor health, her face and lips are a little pale.

Song Xun subconsciously wanted to stand up, but Sheng Mingyu pressed his wrist and motioned him to sit still, "What do you want to drink?"

Perhaps it was because of the medicine she had been taking all year round, her voice sounded a little hoarse and deep.

But it still sounds good.

Seeing her, Song Xun understood why Lin Chengxuan was tall, but Lin Pei was a weeping, fragile little beauty.

He said: "I'm not thirsty, you sit and rest."

Sheng Mingyu was noncommittal, took the cup back, and went to make a cup of tea. Song Xun looked at her back and asked, "You don't know me, do you? Why did you agree to meet me?"

Sheng Mingyu took a sip of her tea, and after a while, she waited until a little bit of blood returned to her pale lips before she replied, "I know you."

She turned around and glanced lightly over Song Xun, "You are Lin Pei's fiancé, right?"
