Chapter 104 It's Snowing Here

The newspaper covering his face was pulled away abruptly, and a blinding light was cast overhead.The light was quickly blocked by someone.Li Mu narrowed his eyes, and it took him a long time to recognize the face of the man dangling above his head, "Mom?"

Li Mu's mother, Ms. Ye Lin, rolled up the newspaper in her hand and knocked on Li Mu's head several times.The movement was not heavy, Li Mu dodged a few times subconsciously.

"Still hiding, still hiding! What time did you get up today? Did you mop the floor you were told to mop? You are so lazy and shameless—how did I raise such a lazy waste like you!"

Li Mu couldn't dodge in time, so he simply let her fight. Anyway, his mother's strength is not too heavy, and it will not cause any bad effects.A roll of newspaper hit Li Mu's forehead, and Li Mu endured it honestly. After a long time, he opened his eyes, "...do you feel better now?"

Ye Lin laughed angrily: "Ah, you think I'm just in a bad mood, and I want to vent my anger on you, right?"

...Isn't it?

Ye Lin shook her head helplessly, and threw the newspaper away, "It's been almost a month since you've been home, isn't your hand sharp? It's not a problem to stay at home all day, if you—"

"I won't go to the company." Li Mu covered his ears, "I don't know anything, I won't go to the company."

Ye Lin was so choked that she couldn't speak, and the newspaper that had just been discarded came in handy again, and while beating Li Mu, she cursed: "You don't go to the company! Then where are you going! There is no one at home who eats for nothing!"

"I don't want to go..." Li Mu didn't sit still now, and jumped back to the room. His mother kicked the door open, "You don't have to go to the company!"

Li Mu almost suspected that he had heard wrongly, and looked at his mother hopefully.Ms. Ye Lin put her hands on her hips, "If you don't go to the company, go on a blind date with me tomorrow!"

Li Mu dragged out his voice, "Mom—"

"It's useless to call grandma!"

"Tell me about you, why bother?"

Li Mu changed his posture, chatting boredly with the person on the other end of the phone.Zhao Shengyan's voice came lazily, "I also quit my job and ran home. Isn't it just breaking up! The old one doesn't go and the new one doesn't come. With your appearance, you don't have to worry about it." No object?"

"Brother." Li Mu said helplessly, "I don't want to talk to you about this."

Zhao Shengyan sneered: "Then what are you talking about? About him?"

Li Mu lowered his head and stopped talking. One picked his foot and the other stroked the cat. They didn't speak for a long time. They made the phone call purely to listen to each other's breathing.

After a while, Zhao Shengyan coughed lightly.

"I don't know what happened between you two." Zhao Shengyan said, "Since we are separated, don't be nostalgic anymore. Xiao Li, listen to my brother's advice. Feelings are feelings, and careers are careers. Feelings are just life. Don't think that if I lose love, my life will be over."

"...I know." Li Mu said, "Did he make things difficult for you?"

Zhao Shengyan chuckled, "Why is he embarrassing me? Besides, even if he embarrasses me, I'm afraid he won't succeed...Why are you still thinking about him now?"

Li Mu sniffled, "Just asking."

Zhao Shengyan sighed.

Li Mu was in a mess that day, and he could tell that they were all from the circle. He knew what happened to Li Mu, but out of the sake of protecting Li Mu's face, he didn't say much.Of course, I felt that Yue Renge had gone too far.What's wrong with Li Mu?No stealing, no snatching, no cheating, just sneaking out to participate in a competition - if it wasn't for the competition, they wouldn't know how good Li Mu is!

Zhao Shengyan looked at Li Mu as a younger brother and a son.Not only because they have known each other for a long time, but also because they hit it off.There are many excellent people, many beautiful people, and many hard-working people, but it is very difficult to concentrate these three things on one person.

In Huadu, he has worked in the bar industry for so many years, what he is afraid of is not the hardships ahead, but the lack of successors.What Zhao Shengyan was afraid of was not that Li Mu would end up alone forever, but that he was really disheartened because of this matter, and finally chose to change careers and quit completely.

He had to help Li Mu get out.

Zhao Shengyan rambled, "Humans are just animals who like the new and hate the old, and have a bad memory. Isn't there a saying that the best way to forget an old love is to find a new one, so I think your mother's idea It still makes sense. A blind date can help you meet more new people..."

Li Mu reminded him a little embarrassedly, "My mother asked me to go on a blind date with a girl."

"...Then change your mind." Zhao Shengyan choked for a moment, "Scientists said again that people's memory has a repair function, and they emphasize the good part of the memory. How happy do you feel to be with him now? , in fact, there should be many bad things, but you forgot..."

Is there anything bad about him being with Yue Renge?Maybe it's because his repair function is too strong, Li Mu can hardly find any unhappiness - even their last dispute.Yes, including that atrocity, Li Mu's memory began to fade a bit.Li Mu felt that he was really a thick-skinned person who didn't learn lessons, and maybe his IQ level was not very good. Otherwise, why would he miss Yue Renge a little bit besides being angry, unwilling, and unhappy?

I'm probably crazy.

Or, this is also part of memory restoration.Those bright pains began to become dull. Even after replaying the images over and over again, Li Mu began to become like a bystander, not easily affecting his emotions.

Or call it maturity.

He has been away from Huadu for two months.

The end of the day was simple.Li Mu put on all his clothes tiredly, tried his best to tidy himself up, put ice packs on his hands, and limped out of Yue Renge's room.

He didn't touch the scattered banknotes. Yes, this was too humiliating.Li Mu was walking in the empty corridor, and applause rang out not far away.

The game is over halfway, and he has already missed the opportunity to play.Even if he goes now, he will not have the ability to compete.His hands, his body, what face does he have to appear in front of everyone?

In the end, Zhao Shengyan found him.

Li Mu went through the resignation procedures, quit the rented house in Xiasha District, bought a plane ticket to go home, and left Huadu.

The family was of course surprised.

My mother discovered Li Mu's injury immediately, and escorted him to the hospital for a specialist emergency.The very experienced doctor told her seriously that it was just a slight flesh injury, and it had been well recovered with proper treatment in the early stage.

Ye Lin was worried and asked Li Mu to stay for a physical examination.She was worried about the inhuman abuse her precious son had received in a foreign country, and she even naturally thought of the unscrupulous boss: Did your boss compensate you?Is this considered a work injury?No?Have you read the labor law?

——According to Li Mu, the injury on his hand came from a bottle of wine accidentally dropped from the cabinet during working hours.

Li Mu's heart was more tired than his body, and he finally persuaded his mother to promise that he would not return to Huadu in the near future, and this day was considered smooth.

In fact, the family is very good.

Yes, why not?In this important town in the Northwest, their family's business is already very big. They bought a villa on the outskirts of the city a few years ago, with a small yard. It was originally planted with flowers and plants, but his mother, Ms. Ye Lin, sent someone to renovate the yard. Turned into a vegetable garden.

But it can't be seen at night.

There was a window open beside the bed in Li Mu's bedroom, and the white curtains were blown up by the wind.It was already very cold, and it was even colder in his hometown. While answering the phone, he struggled to close the window.

"...Hey, are you listening?" Zhao Shengyan babbled for a long time without hearing a response, and called twice, "Hello, are you still there?"

"It's snowing," Li Mu said, "It's snowing here."

The sky had already darkened, but Li Mu stayed in the warm room and didn't notice it.The snowflakes at night are not obvious, because the street lights in the yard downstairs are on, and the snowflakes fly obliquely in the warm yellow halo, like catkins flying in spring, the warm halo made him feel An illusion of warmth.

Li Mu watched in rapt attention, it was a scene he hadn't seen for a long time.

"Yeah, it's time to snow now." Zhao Shengyan said with a smile, "It's time for dinner, I won't chat with you for now."

When Li Mu went downstairs, Li Ye also came back.He took off his snow-covered coat, and the nanny took it and shook it for him.My mother cooks herself and stews the old hen, which fills the room with the aroma.Li Juan didn't know what to do in the room, and her mother yelled several times before she was late.

When Li Ye saw Li Juan, he laughed at her: "Oh, what is our eldest lady doing? What kind of makeup is she wearing? Oh, it's late, Halloween is already over! It's almost New Year's Day!"

When Li Juan heard this, she raised her eyebrows, took two quick steps, and was about to step on Li Ye's feet.

Li Ye dodged nimbly, and the two of them got into a fight.

"Okay, okay! Suning, take care of your husband!" Mom came out of the kitchen carrying the soup, "Leave it alone, ouch, it's time to spill it later!"

The sister-in-law hurried forward to help the mother take away the chicken soup. Li Mu washed his hands and sat at the dining table, ready to eat.

"I'm so lazy." Mom put the rice bowl in his hand, "I really don't know how you live outside."

Li Mu smiled, "It's better to be at home."

It's rare to see this kid say something human, Ye Lin's heart moved, but her face remained calm, "It's comfortable at home, why don't you just stay at home. Oh, by the way, since everyone is here today, it's time to drink Order wine, come, this cabinet over here, you are tall, help me take down the bottle of wine on it."

Li Mu helped her take a bottle of wine from the top of the display case, and when he saw the label, he was stunned.

"It was sent by your friend, in September. He said that his family is in France, and he went to that courtyard, the wine from the grand cru." Mom carefully wiped off the thin dust that fell on the wine bottle, " I asked a friend to appraise it, it is good wine, and you can’t buy it easily. It’s hard to bother him so much. Hey, have you thanked him? Don’t let them say that we don’t understand etiquette.”

The wine bought by Yue Renge.That day when they were at the Keats Court, he carried the wine mysteriously.Li Mu originally thought that it was a gift from him to his parents, but he never thought that this gift went round and round and ended up in his mother's hands.

Yue Renge didn't mention a word to himself.And because I haven't contacted my family for so long, I don't even know about all this.

He always does.Obviously doing things for others, but always unwilling to publicize.You have to have someone who is thoughtful and considerate to know how good he is.

——I wonder if Yue Renge can find such a person?

Anyway, I am not qualified enough.

"...Thank you, of course." Li Mu turned his head in a panic, "I'll help you find the bottle opener, I'll see where it is...Mom, why are your things always misplaced, I can't even find them. "

Yes, I can't find it.

His love, his lover, was lost along with the glorious autumn in Burgundy.
