Chapter 238 234. Her Boyfriend
At three or four o'clock in the afternoon, the warm sun slanted.

Xu Luoying walked down the street with a bag of fruits and vegetables in her hand.

When passing the coffee bookstore on the corner of the street, a familiar voice stopped her.

"Sister Xu!"

Xu Luoying turned her head when she heard the sound, and after seeing who it was, she responded with a smile, "It's you, Old Chen."

The manager of this bookstore, Lao Chen, is an old friend and neighbor of her and her husband Lu Zhi for many years.

Yuan'er spent a lot of time in this bookstore when she was a child.

Lao Chen pointed to a row of chairs outside the store, and asked, "Is this the one you just finished shopping for groceries?"

Xu Luoying was not too polite, she sat down and put the bag beside her, and said, "Yes, the food is cheaper at this hour."

"What about you? Business is okay recently?" She asked casually.

"That's it, make do with it."

Lao Chen scratched the stubble on his chin, shook his head with a smile, and changed the subject.

"Where's Yuan'er? Is the little girl home? It's time for a holiday."

Xu Luoying lifted the vegetable bag by her hand, "I came back yesterday, and I went to the supermarket on purpose because of this worry-free girl."

Old Chen laughed, waved his hands and said,

"It's also a good thing to make you worry. When the child really grows up, we don't need to worry about it. Instead, my heart will be empty."

Xu Luoying was stunned for a moment, nodded and said, "What you said... made me not want her to grow up for a while."

"Unfortunately, it's up to us whether we grow up or not, haha."

Xu Luoying also smiled.

Suddenly remembered something, Lao Chen's eyes flashed, and he tentatively asked Xu Luoying, "Yu'er is also 21, should he have a boyfriend?"

Hearing Lao Chen's question, Xu Luoying frowned, sighed, "Yes, we talked secretly, and finally confessed recently."

Hearing her affirmative answer, Lao Chen felt certain in his heart, and said with a smile,
"What's there to worry about? Yuan'er's boyfriend's appearance, there is still something to choose? During the New Year's Eve, the two of them are quite sweet."

When he met this young couple last New Year's Eve, he promised to keep Lu Yuan'er a secret.

But now that the little girl has explained the situation to her family, he doesn't have to deliberately avoid it anymore.

He also saw Xiao Yuan'er's boyfriend on TV last night, and he acted pretty well.

But to his surprise, after hearing what he said, the expression on Xu Luoying's face did not change from sorrow to joy or plainness.

Instead, it turned to. Doubt?

Xu Luoying was stunned, and Lao Chen was also stunned.

After a while, Xu Luoying asked hesitantly, "Old Chen, you just said that you met Yuan'er's boyfriend on New Year's Eve?"

Old Chen blinked his eyes and sensed something was wrong, "Haven't you seen it?"

The corner of Xu Luoying's mouth twitched.

Lao Chen had an answer in his mind.

He smiled wryly and waved his hands, "I promised Yuan'er to keep it a secret for her, so you should ask her yourself."

Xu Luoying's mind, which had been down for a while, began to spin slowly.

New Year's Eve, that is... half a year ago?

Classmate Lu Yuan'er at least talked about her love behind my back for half a year?
And, on New Year's Eve
Xu Luoying searched hard for the memory of half a year ago, and finally confirmed one thing.

That night, Lu Yuan'er didn't go out.

At least not until she went back to her room to sleep.

Xu Luoying narrowed her eyes, and vaguely had an answer in her heart.

She suddenly felt an itchy hand.

From the side, seeing the change in Xu Luoying's expression, Lao Chen panicked.

He didn't want Lu Yuan'er to be "kicked out of the house" because of his unintentional mistake.

After hesitating for a while, he said to Xu Luoying, "Don't think about it, the two of you just stayed in my coffee shop all night, nothing else."

Xu Luoying was surprised and suspicious, "Really?"

Old Chen nodded vigorously, "Really not, young people just want to have a sense of ritual when they get together on New Year's Eve, nothing else."

"Don't worry, if there is something wrong, can I not tell you and your wife?"

Only then did Xu Luoying feel relieved, and glared at her old friend, "I'm fine here, be careful that Lao Lu will settle accounts with you."

Old Chen smiled awkwardly.

But he suddenly remembered the TV series he saw last night, it seemed to be directed by Lu Zhi, right?

What is going on with this family?Is there some kind of infernal affairs going on?
However, he had made an unintentional mistake once, and learned to be cautious this time, so he didn't say any more.

After hearing such news, Xu Luoying didn't have the mood to continue sitting here and chatting.

Shaking her head, she stood up, "You are busy, old Chen, I will go home first."

"Okay, okay, come again when you have time."

After bidding farewell to the bookstore owner, Xu Luoying returned home with vegetables and fruits.

In front of the sink in the kitchen, Xu Luoying was full of thoughts while washing the vegetables to be fried tonight.

For the first time, she felt that her daughter's love affair seemed a bit beyond her expectations.

I thought it was the impulsive impulse of the little girl who grew up ignorant and youthful, but now it seems that it is not the case.

Half a year, or longer
While her thoughts were complicated, she vaguely sensed something was wrong.

In December half a year ago, and now in June, Lu Yuaner's two return home seemed to be related to something.

Xu Luoying frowned, feeling like she was about to grab something, but found nothing.

Exhaling, she turned off the tap and wiped her hands.

Taking the phone, Xu Luoying found a girl's number in the address book.

Press.

Beep. Beep. Beep.

Lu Yuan'er's soft voice came.

"Hello? Ms. Xu? I'm already preparing to come back, don't worry, don't worry."

Hearing Lu Yuan'er's well-behaved voice, Xu Luoying's anxious mood calmed down a little.

But she still snorted coldly, and said lightly, "Can I not be in a hurry? Our family Yuan'er has learned to stay home on New Year's Eve, so should I run away from home next?"

Lu Yuan'er suddenly fell silent.

She was probably taken aback by the content and tone of her words.

Xu Luoying's heart softened, and she continued, "Within half an hour, go home and explain to me clearly, or you can explain to Lao Lu yourself."

"Huh? I'll be right back!"

Lu Yuan'er's voice sounded quickly.

Hearing the girl's voice, Xu Luoying smiled helplessly, paused for two seconds and finally said, "Don't panic, pay attention to safety on the road."

"Got it, Ms. Xu!"

The phone hangs up.

Looking at the background picture of Lu Yuan'er on the screen of her mobile phone, Xu Luoying was stunned for a while.

Lu Yuan'er on the screen smiled brightly and movingly.

Subconsciously, she stretched out her finger and touched Lu Yuan'er's face. A complicated look flashed across her eyes, and then she smiled lightly.

Putting the phone aside, Xu Luoying turned on the faucet of the sink again.

The water splashed down.
