Chapter 1367： Undercurrent

Following Ming Wei's response, Jiang Li seemed to understand something, and seeing Xi Jingyu walking into the living room, this undoubtedly confirmed her suspicion.

It seems that the two young people have made great strides towards becoming lovers from a relationship of pursuing and being pursued!

Curving the corners of her lips, Jiang Li faced Xi Jingyu and said with a smile: "It's cold outside, right? Come to the stove and warm your hands."

“It’s a bit cold.”

 A faint smile appeared on Xi Jing Yujun's face. He nodded lightly and then sat on the bamboo chair next to the stove.

“Aunt Jiang, I have something to do at home, so I’m going back first. I’ll come over and sit down another day when I’m free.”

Shen Shenqing felt panicked at this moment. He stood up and said goodbye to Jiang Li, and said hello to Mingrui, Minghan and Tuanzi. When his eyes fell on Mingwei, he moved the corners of his mouth and said, "You just came from Come outside and drink some hot water to warm yourself.”

After the sound fell, he nodded to Xi Jingyu as a greeting before leaving.

Mingwei: "I'll give it to you."

“It’s cold, don’t freeze.” The implication is that there is no need to go out to see him off.

Shen Shenqing's eyes were filled with a soft color, she shook her head and walked out of the living room.

However out of courtesy, Mingwei still followed Minghan and sent the person to the gate of the courtyard with the three dumplings.

Looking at the back of Shen Shenqing walking away, Minghan said to the three dumplings: "The wind is a bit strong. You should go back to the living room quickly. The second brother will say a few words to your third sister and we will go in after a while."

After taking away three dumplings, Minghan asked, "Don't you see anything?"

Ming Wei looked puzzled.

“Then you didn’t notice anything?”

Minghan asked in a different direction.

"Second brother, if you have something to say, just say it directly. There is no need to keep talking to me."

Ming Wei felt very confused. What should she see? What did you notice?

"Your emotional intelligence is not low, why are you like a piece of wood?!"

Ming Wei quit after being insulted by Ming Han, her eyes widened: "Second brother, can't you talk properly?"

You say she is just a piece of wood, is there anyone who would bury his own sister like this?

Minghan sighed and shook his head, with the word "idiot" written in his eyes, and said: "Shen Shenqing saw you and that boy Xi Jingyu walking into the living room one after another, and her mood was obviously not right. Also, Your face is so red that anyone who looks at it will think too much. "

"..." Ming Wei's face turned red because of what Minghan said. She dug out her eyes at Minghan angrily and said, "Are you just idle and have nothing to do? I don't care if I'm blushing or not!"

After a slight pause, her expression returned to normal and she continued: "There is nothing between Shen Siqing and I. You'd better not talk nonsense."

“What if he really likes you?”

Minghan asked.

“He didn’t say anything, so how could I run up to him and say, ‘I don’t have feelings for you, so don’t like me’?”

Ming Wei's eyes were full of disgust: "Second brother, I don't want to be called an arrogant maniac, let alone being said in reply, 'You are overthinking'!"

“Are you worried about being misunderstood by Shen Siqing as being sentimental?”

Minghan is thoughtful.

Ming Wei rolled her eyes: "Isn't this possible?"

Hearing this, Minghan was silent for a while, and then asked: "What do you think of Xi Jingyu now?"

Without waiting for Mingwei to say anything, Minghan put one hand in his trouser pocket, glanced into the courtyard door, and said: "If you feel it, confirm the relationship; otherwise, give someone an accurate word. Lest that kid expects you. The reply was like wishing for the stars and the moon. It looked like an idiot. It made my teeth hurt when I saw it. Furthermore, once you two confirm the relationship, just think about it and think about it. If it does, he can give up thinking about you as soon as possible. Think about it, so as not to get stuck in the mud. Of course, this is true for Xi Jingyu. I don’t want him and I to have to be brothers one day because of you! "

“What kind of mud is enough to sink deep into? Am I mud?”

Mingwei was about to vomit blood because of Minghan's metaphor. She puffed up her cheeks and said, "We are all adults, not three-year-olds, okay? I originally didn't want to get involved in relationships too early. It was Xi Jingyu who said I wanted to pursue it. I saw that he was sincere, so I gave him a chance. It has been at most half a year since I gave him the chance. Xi Jingyu himself doesn’t have any objections, but you stand up and tell me first. Second brother, are you sure it’s me? My second brother?”

"no."

Minghan lazily threw out two words.

Mingwei snorted and said, "I used to be afraid that a boy would approach me. When the name 'Xi Jingyu' came out of my mouth, you were the most nervous at home. You were worried about something happening to Xi Jingyu and me. Now, It’s good that you are so eager to push me out because you are obsessed with bringing us together. I doubt you have ulterior motives!”

“Ouch! You little girl, are you thinking too much?!”

Minghan couldn't laugh or cry: "I'm helping you avoid shouldering too much emotional debt. What's more, you and Xi Jingyu have established a relationship as boyfriend and girlfriend. It's not like you're going to get married the next moment. If you feel it's not suitable, you can separate again. That’s right. Even if you have a good relationship and don’t want to get married too early, then wait until ten or eight years later and see if I will push you.”

“Aren’t you tired from the long-distance race of love?”

Mingwei said: "Second brother, do you like this kind of love model?"

Minghan responded calmly: "If we really care about each other, we won't break up just because of a certificate."

“二哥，你叔要是妈妈知道你的爱情观，知道你喜欢一个女孩子时，并且与对方谈情说爱十年八年，就是不登记领证，给人一个家庭，妈妈会不会揍你ah?"

Ming Wei raised her chin and raised her eyebrows with a half-smile.

"Luo Mingwei, have you forgotten what you once said? What will your future career be?"

Minghan raised her lips: "You mentioned to our mother that you won't get married before you are thirty. If you and Xi Jingyu really become boyfriend and girlfriend, won't you have to wait until he is thirty before he can marry you? this person?"

“What’s the point? After we graduate from university in four years, we’ll be at least twenty-one or twelve years old, and then we’ll study for a Ph.D., which may take several more years. Finally, we’ll get a doctorate certificate, which is thirty years away…”

"Stop it. Let's not go that far..."

“I’m anxious if I can’t say it, hum!”

“I think you have double standards!”

Minghan said "heh" and said: "I just mentioned that after confirming the relationship between boyfriend and girlfriend, as for when to get married, there is no rush. You just put a big hat on me and thought about asking my mother to beat me. Luo Mingwei, I can't compare to your double standard. Forget it, if you really can't listen to me, just pretend that I didn't say anything just now."

“Are you angry?”

Mingwei is a little funny.

"Am I naive?" Minghan glanced at Mingwei: "The fact that you blush because of Xi Jingyu means that you have feelings for him. I'm just giving you a push."

Mingwei smiled: "Okay, okay, I've made an agreement with your good brother and I will reply to him after a while."

Minghan was startled for a moment, and then said angrily: "I said so much before, are you just playing tricks on your second brother?"

The two of them have been going back and forth for a long time, and it turns out that he is actually a clown!

Thinking about this, Minghan felt distressed.

Therefore, he glared at Mingwei: "I won't talk to you anymore. I have to go to my mother for comfort!"

“Childish ghost!”

Mingwei laughed out loud.

…

Shen Shenqing didn't know whether it was due to a shock or something else. After the Spring Festival, he joined a new crew and did not appear at the Beicheng Film Academy or in front of Ming Wei for three whole months.

Mingwei informed Xi Jingyu and Minghan before they returned to school that they had successfully become regular students.

In other words, the two have established a romantic relationship and become official boyfriend and girlfriend.

So, every month whenever Xi Jingyu wrote to Mingwei, he would receive a reply from Mingwei.

On this day, Shen Shenqing showed up at Beicheng Film Academy after three months. He didn't see Ming Wei, but he learned from Song Xiaoran that Ming Wei had been selected by a director to make a film just a few days after joining the crew.

“Joined the crew?”

"Yes, three days later, the college originally refused to let anyone go. It was the director who found connections to convince the college leaders. In addition, Weiwei promised to take the final exam as scheduled and promised not to fail. The college leaders also contacted Aunt Jiang. Through the phone call, Weiwei was let into the director’s crew.”

Song Xiaoran and Shen Siqing walked side by side. She felt particularly sweet in her heart. Perhaps out of selfish motives, she quietly looked at Shen Shen and said, "Weiwei seems to have had a boyfriend since she was in college. You...you also like Weiwei." Wei, right?"

Perhaps out of dignity, Shen Shenqing didn't even think about it. He shook his head: "I came here this time to visit Professor Qin on behalf of my tutor. I thought that since I'm here, I'd like to... meet you by the way!"

It's not that he thought too much, she was really talking about being friends with that boy named Xi Jingyu!

There was a dull pain in his heart. Shen Shenqing pursed her lips tightly, suppressed the pain, and asked casually: "What about you? There are many outstanding boys in the university. Do you have a boyfriend who you like?"

Song Xiaoran shook her head decisively: "No!" As if she was worried whether Shen Shenqing believed it or not, she shook her head like a drum: "Absolutely not!"

Shen Shenqing seemed to be amused by her cuteness, and a low laugh broke out in his throat.

Song Xiaoran's cheeks turned red: "You...are you laughing at me?"

"you are very cute!"

Shen Shenqing stopped laughing, turned his head away, covered his lips with his fist and coughed twice, then looked at Song Xiaoran, smiled and said something.

Hearing this, Song Xiaoran's heart felt like a deer. She lowered her eyelids. After a moment, she looked around and saw that there was no one around. She couldn't help but make up her mind to reveal her thoughts to Shen Shenqing.

…」

"Um?"

“You...do you have a girlfriend?”

"No."

But he has a girl he likes.

Shen Si looked at Song Xiaoran calmly, and then heard the other party say: "Then can I be your girlfriend?"

To avoid Shen Shenqing's rejection, Song Xiaoran said hurriedly: "I liked you since I was in elementary school. Later, you went to study abroad. I thought you would never come back. Unexpectedly, six or seven years later, you returned to China.

do you know? When I overheard Xiao Tong saying that you were going to return to China soon, I was so happy. Shen Shenqing, are you willing to be my boyfriend now? It doesn't matter if you don't want to, after all, it's my business to like you, if you don't like me..."

Handing her head, Song Xiaoran felt a little disappointed. She knew that Shen Shenqing cared about Ming Wei, but she didn't want to miss this opportunity today.

She wanted to give it a try and express her feelings. Even if she was rejected... she would not regret it in the future!

"I...I need to think about..." Shen Shenqing didn't look at Song Xiaoran. His thoughts were wandering to nowhere, and he said in a deep voice, "Go back to the dormitory. I have something else to do, so I won't talk to you anymore."

Taking a step and walking far away.

Because of his outstanding appearance and extraordinary temperament, Shen Shenqing's dress was very low-key, but it still attracted the attention of many male and female students.

But Shen Shenqing seemed to be unaware of it and kept moving forward.

Song Xiaoran stood there without moving. When she was sure what Shen Shenqing had said before leaving, she felt very excited.

She was not rejected directly. Does this mean she still has a chance? Any chance of being Shen Siqing's girlfriend?

She doesn't mind that Shen Shenqing is most likely thinking about Mingwei now, who is her good friend. She believes that when Shen Shenqing agrees to be her girlfriend, it won't take long to replace Mingwei. position in Shen Siqing's heart.

As for Han Qian...she is not afraid, so what if she likes Shen Shenqing?

You can only have one girlfriend. If Shen Shenqing becomes boyfriend and girlfriend with her, Han Qian can't take it from her!

Song Xiaoran didn't take Han Qian seriously at all.

Little did they know that Han Qian, who had taken a break from school to take care of herself at home, showed up at the college with her family behind her back. She happened to see Song Xiaoran and Shen Siqing walking together, and vaguely heard Song Xiaoran confessing to Shen Siqing, and Shen Siqing. Qing's reply to Song Xiaoran.

At that moment, jealousy almost overflowed from Han Qian's eyes.

…

Time is running like water, and the final exam is approaching. Guoguo came home from school that afternoon and asked Jiang Li, "Mom, I miss my sister!"

"Your sister will go back to school to take the final exam in two days. We can go over there after school in the afternoon and take a look." Jiang Li said with a smile.

“Okay!”

Guoguo was very happy.

“Where is my dad? It’s been almost a year, and he hasn’t been home yet, and he still hasn’t received a phone call.”

 Guo Guo frowned: "I wonder if dad has become particularly thin, and I don't know if he misses us."

Jiang Li had a look of helplessness on her face, and she said with a smile: "If you lose weight, you will probably lose weight. As for whether you miss us or not, well, you must have thought about it, but your father's work does not allow him to be distracted at all. If he doesn't go home or make phone calls, We should all understand."

After rubbing Guoguo's head, Jiang Li said, "Okay, go wash your hands with your fourth and fifth brothers and prepare for dinner."

She also missed her Mr. Luo, and she had driven to the place. Not to mention seeing people, she couldn't even get in through the gate.

She knew the reason without any explanation from the comrade on duty.

It must be that the project currently being researched by Mr. Luo of her family is classified as top secret, so the entire institute is heavily guarded and no outsiders are allowed to approach.

Even family members would stop a few feet away from the gate.

Jiang Li knew the importance and didn't stay there too long.

What she has to do is: “Understand and support!”

“Mom, after summer vacation, I want to stay in the laboratory.”

Jiang Li had promised to prepare a laboratory for the three dumplings before. Naturally, Jiang Li kept his promise. A month ago, he brought the three little guys to the JL headquarters office building and opened the doors of three laboratories one after another. He could prepare the three dumplings. I couldn't be happier.

The experimental equipment is complete, and the operating table can be raised and lowered according to their height. On the same day, the three dumplings entered their respective laboratories and started to live slowly.

If Jiang Li hadn't asked him to go home, the three of them would have lived in the laboratory.

“All food and accommodation are in there?”

Jiang Li raised his eyebrows.

"May I?"

Tang Yuan’s eyes were full of sincerity.

“Don’t even think about it.”

She couldn't bear to think of becoming a "research madman" even when she was older.

“Mom, why?”

Tuanzi asked.

“You are growing.”

Less than eleven, the body needs nutrition in all aspects and needs to exercise more, otherwise, everyone will not become a dwarf in the future?

Duanzi: “As long as the nutrition is kept up, it will have no impact on the health.”

Tangyuan and Guoguo nodded in agreement.

I really want to combine the knowledge from books with what I think in my heart and verify it through experiments!

“Think about your dad.” When you are so busy, you can’t take care of eating or exercising!

Jiang Li shook his head and said, "If you don't want to have a healthy body and want to be a dwarf, I have no objection."

…”

Are you out of breath after walking a few steps?

Little dwarf?

Thinking of this possibility, all three dumplings shuddered involuntarily.

They don’t want to be like that!

But soon Tangyuan didn’t know what to think of. He smiled and said, “Mom, we can put fitness equipment in the laboratory. Anyway, the laboratory is big enough and there is a special lounge inside.”

“Luo Mingchen, your father’s laboratory is also very big. Later, you can ask him if he has exercised in the laboratory, and then ask him if he has three normal meals in the laboratory.”

Even if someone brought three meals to her, Mr. Luo in her family would not even bother to eat them.

It’s not like she’s never seen it before.

Tang Yuan wilted: "Okay, I'll listen to my mother."

"Mom knows that you are smart, but at your age you need to enrich your knowledge reserves first and have a healthy and strong body. Of course you can do experiments, and since mom has prepared a laboratory for you, it is to make it easier for you to Whatever you think of, combine the knowledge you have learned and make it a reality through experiments, but I still say that you must know the importance and do not ignore your own health. "

"knew."

The three dumplings nodded, completely giving up the idea of ​​spending the entire summer vacation in the laboratory, including food and accommodation.

Suddenly, the landline phone rang.

“Hello! Hello, who are you looking for?”

Walking into the living room, Jiang Li picked up the phone and asked the other party politely.

Before the start of the new semester, Jiang Li took three dumplings to live in a courtyard near Shuimu University.

After all, the three dumplings are studying in the high school of the High School Affiliated to Shuimu University.

“Mom! I’m Weiwei!”

The call was from Mingwei.

“How are you doing on the set?”

“It’s okay! I just miss my mother, dumplings, and Xiao Guoguo.”

“We all miss you too.”

"Mom, I will go back to the college the day after tomorrow. After taking the final exam, I have to return to the set. However, I will take the time to go home and see you before going back to the set."

“There is no need for you to run back and forth. When you finish the exam, your mother will drive over to see you.”

“But I don’t want my mother to be affected.”

“How tiring can this be? I’m driving.”

“Okay then! Thank you mom! I love you~”

“You’re so old and you’re still acting like a spoiled brat!”

“No matter how old I am, I am always my mother’s little girl.”

“Yes, yes, you are my mother’s little baby! That little baby should pay more attention to rest, don’t panic during the exam, review the questions carefully, and answer the questions carefully.”

“Don’t worry, I promise I won’t fail the class. I read a book during my spare time while filming, and I have been reviewing hard recently!”

“Don’t work too hard!”

"good."

At this time, Guoguo came over and interjected: "Sister, you are mom's eldest baby, and I am the little darling. Don't make a mistake next time!"

Ming Wei’s laughter came from the microphone: “Mom, Xiao Guoguo is jealous of me!”

When Mingwei heard this, she hummed softly and said, "Sister, I am no longer a little Guoguo, I have grown up!"

Unexpectedly, Ming Wei laughed again.

“Okay, sister knows, Daguoguo!”

Mingwei heard this sentence coming from the phone, puffed up her cheeks, and said to the dumplings and glutinous rice balls: "Sister is laughing at me."

“Who made you childish?”

Give a sentence about glutinous rice balls.

"I'm not naive at all, fifth brother, don't talk nonsense."

Staring at Tangyuan, Guoguo sat on the sofa, resting her chin on her hands, watching Jiang Li continue to talk to Mingwei on the phone.

About four or five minutes passed, Jiang Li put the microphone on the landline.

…

Including Song Xiaoran, many boys and girls at Beicheng Film Academy are envious of Ming Wei for being spotted by a well-known domestic director and chosen to be the heroine of a new film.

However, after meeting Shen Shenqing alone, and recently getting a reply from Shen Shenqing, agreeing to try to watch everything with her, Song Xiaoran's slight jealousy towards Mingwei for being able to make a movie in her freshman year disappeared instantly.

Actually, Song Xiaoran knew that she shouldn’t be jealous that her good friend and bestie could be spotted by a big director.

But everyone has selfish motives, especially when she sees that the boy she admires seems to like her best friend, and her best friend has been selected by a well-known director to be the heroine of a movie. If she is not jealous, Song Xiaoran feels that she must be a saint.

But she is not, she is a little girl with flesh and blood, feelings, selfishness, and her own dreams.

Since I was a child, I have had good friends around me as a reference.

To be honest, she felt quite unhappy for a while.

Her family is better off than her, her parents have better jobs than her parents, she is prettier than her, and she studies better than her...

In short, Luo Mingwei, her good friend and bestie, is excellent in all aspects, and is a particularly perfect girl.

Around her, she seemed particularly unremarkable.

Like fireflies beside the bright moon, dim and dull.

Therefore, she secretly thought about it more than once, hoping that she could shine in a certain aspect, not to mention comparing herself with her good friends, but also that she could be happy in her heart, be noticed by others, and be a good person in the eyes of others. A bright spot.

Now that his wish has come true, Song Xiaoran smiles every day, looking forward to Shen Si Qingduo appearing in his college and meeting her more times.

Little did he know that she was jealous of her good friend Ming Wei, and that there was someone who was also jealous of her, and even wished he could become her and have a relationship with Shen Shenqing.

I do n’t know that the person who is jealous of her has already stared at her. I do n’t know that the other party is an acquaintance and her classmate Han Qian.

I didn’t know that Han Qian had been overwhelmed by jealousy recently and wanted to do something big.

“You’ve been running out a lot lately, tell me, what have you been doing?”

In the study room, Han Bin sat behind the desk. He stared at Han Qian with inquiry and confusion in his eyes.

Knowing that you are not in good health, why don’t you follow the doctor’s advice and have to go out again and again?

“Staying at home is too boring, so I go out for a drive. Every time I go out, I come back safely.”

Han Qian was very unhappy when she was called to the study by Han Bin.

She didn’t want to drop out of school, but she ignored her wishes and directly suspended her studies, and promised to buy her a car. Since she didn’t want her to run away, why should she buy a car as she wished?

Han Qian cursed in her heart.

Han Bin: “If you want to recover, you’d better follow the doctor’s advice, otherwise, no one can save you.”
