Get off work and become a magical girl

Chapter 56 A Farce

Screaming and turning around, Lin Xiaolu backed away for a while, bumping into the railing behind her, then accidentally slipped her footsteps, and hit her head straight on the glass panel beside the railing.

"what!"

The back of her head hurt, she couldn't help but let out a cry of pain, and then fell to the ground and sat down.

Fortunately, Lin Yun was quick-sighted, and before she really fell down, he bent down and reached out, grabbed Lin Xiaolu's arm in time, and lifted her up on the spot.

"Are you okay?"

Seeing Lin Xiaolu grinning in pain, he subconsciously reached out and rubbed the back of her head. Seeing that there seemed to be no wound, he breathed a sigh of relief: "Lulu, walk carefully."

——"I'm not scared by you!"

Lin Xiaolu stood up straight, took his hands away from the back of her head, and said angrily, "Don't suddenly talk behind other people's backs!"

"I see you two are sneaking around here, of course I have to ask."

Lin Yun raised his brows and said, "I've been lying on the third floor and watching for so long, do you really think I didn't notice?"

In fact, he did not notice that it was hard for ordinary people to imagine that someone on the high floors of this kind of shopping plaza would be staring at him.It's just that I can find their whereabouts now, after all, I need another reason.

This kind of reason is somewhat far-fetched on weekdays, but fortunately, the two girls followed up first and thought they were wrong, so they didn't doubt the excuse he gave.

"I'm sorry uncle, I was wrong."

Xia Liang's reaction was the fastest, she immediately pretended to be a good boy, and said innocently, "I didn't mean it, I was just curious."

"Who is sneaking around, I am standing here aboveboard!"

Lin Xiaolu's attitude was not so friendly, and she hit her head just now, she put her hand on the back of her head and said angrily, "I'll see what you're doing, can't you?"

"Then why are you here?" Lin Yun stared into her eyes.

Lin Xiaolu could only keep silent and look away.

She shouldn't, but as always, she was not good at covering up her emotions, and her guilty expression was vividly reflected, so Lin Yun knew it, and asked again: "Did you follow me?"

"I'm just curious." Lin Xiaolu muttered.

"Are you curious too?"

Lin Yun suddenly felt a little funny: "You two are so aggressive, and you have been watching this for a long time, is it because of this?"

"Can't you? You're not, why do you have to go out dressed like this on a day off?"

Lin Xiaolu, who had been exposed, had to go all out, and confessed a little self-defeating: "It's so formal, I thought you came here because you wanted to..."

Only then did Lin Yun understand why she appeared here.

He glanced at Xia Liang, who smiled awkwardly and lowered his head apologetically, obviously knowing that it's not good to follow others.

Also, what do I care about with children.

He sneered in his heart, and simply wiped away the little dissatisfaction left, and then looked at Lin Xiaolu to confirm:

"You think I'm going to find you a stepmother?"

"Otherwise?" Lin Xiaolu looked up at him with a puzzled expression.

"How is it possible? Even if you want to look for it, you must first ask for your opinion."

Lin Yun shook his head, and then sighed a little: "You, I probably can't remember clearly. Today is obviously your mother's and my wedding anniversary."

Lin Xiaolu couldn't help but widen her eyes.

"wedding anniversary?"

As she muttered the words this time, she stuttered for a moment: "Huh? But, but, it was clear that there was no such thing as last year or the year before..."

"Because this year is the 15th anniversary of No., the last time your mother and I commemorated this date was the 9th anniversary, when you were only [-] years old."

Lin Yun continued to explain: "Besides, you also know that we have to visit your mother in a week, and I have to prepare some gifts for her."

"Ha..." Lin Xiaolu let out a breath from her mouth in a daze.

Let go of the hand covering the back of her head, she looked at Lin Yun in a daze, then lowered her head, and repeated again: "It turned out to be like this... I thought..."

For a moment, she didn't even know why she was relieved.

My father didn't come out to date other women, but just to commemorate his mother.

Although it still does not mean that he has nothing to do with the woman named Hong Siyu, nor does it mean that he does not know Delphinium, but at least it shows that the wild thoughts in her mind when she came...

Lin Xiaolu felt her cheeks burning hot.

Xia Liang who was at the side laughed, and lightly touched her arm: "I told you, it may not be what you think, right? You don't believe it."

Lin Xiaolu glanced at her, knowing in her heart that she had made a big embarrassment, but she was not the type to shut up and suffer, so she subconsciously wanted to speak back.

But before she could say anything, she suddenly saw Lin Yun's nostalgic expression, and it was as if cold water had been poured on her heart, and the words that came to her mouth were swallowed back.

"...I see, I was wrong."

She admitted her mistake honestly, and whispered in a low voice: "Since this is the case, then I will go home later."

"That's all, what are you going to do now?"

Lin Yun sighed, and tried his best to draw an arc on his face: "Since you are here, then come and help me with my advice, and consider it as choosing a gift for your mother together."

"I..." Lin Xiaolu looked at him hesitantly. After knowing that she had made a mistake, she didn't know what to say.

"Let's go." Lin Yun patted the railing and pointed to the bottom of the patio, "Or are you planning to visit the grave next week?"

"how is this possible?"

As soon as this topic came up, Lin Xiaolu became more energetic and muttered softly: "If you don't go, I will go."

"What are you waiting for?"

Lin Yun stepped forward, took two steps in the direction of the elevator, and looked back at her: "Or do you want to continue to stand here and be the marshal on the podium?"

"...do you think I'm willing?"

"Let's go then." Lin Yun urged.

"Okay, got it."

"Anything you want for lunch?"

"……ice cream."

On the other side, Xia Liang, who watched the whole process from the sidelines, smiled in relief when he saw the gradually harmonious atmosphere between the father and daughter.

Maybe there is some small envy, even jealousy in my heart, but these feelings are secondary.More importantly, Lin Xiaolu is her friend, she can have a good relationship with her parents, and she can empathize with them and feel happy for them.

"Then, Uncle, Xiaolu."

She waved her hands to the two of them, with a smile on her face: "In that case, then I'll go back by myself first?"

"You..." Lin Xiaolu frowned, wanting to say something else.

It was just that she had just uttered a word when Xia Liang interrupted: "Xiao Lu, you should also study the gift carefully, your mother will be very happy."

She didn't give Lin Xiaolu a chance to finish what she said, even though they all knew that this sentence might be to keep her.

But in her opinion, now is a rare opportunity for the father and daughter to communicate well, and there is no need for her to stay here like a light bulb, as it will only make everyone feel uncomfortable.

So, after she finished speaking, she turned around, quickened her pace, and walked towards the crowd as if she wanted to escape.But before she got into the crowd, she was finally stopped by a voice from behind.

——"Students over there."

The man behind said this: "If there is nothing else, you can come with Xiaolu?"

"...No, thank you uncle, it's very convenient for me to go back by myself." So she turned her head and declined with a smile.

"Why are you being polite, you are Xiaolu's classmate, your name is Xia Liang, right?"

Lin Yun tried his best to make his complexion and tone appear gentle: "Thank you for making such a mess with her, so I have to thank you too."

He actually didn't know what Xia Liang was thinking at this time, but it didn't prevent him from remembering the words "don't be partial" that Xia Liang, who rarely showed her vulnerable side, said to delphinium that night.

Although he is not a delphinium now, and the other party will not recognize it, but this is not an excuse for him to leave this girl aside.

"Come on, I'll treat you to lunch and drive you home."

He looked at Xia Liang and said seriously.

Xia Liang looked at him, opened his mouth slightly, but didn't know how to continue to refuse.

"Don't be there mother-in-law."

Lin Xiaolu on the side also found a chance to finish her sentence, folded her hands, looked sideways and said, "Didn't you say that before, why do you want me to be like your own family? Now you're just pretending?"

Xia Liang looked at Lin Yun, then at Lin Xiaolu, and found that they were all looking at her with some kind of concern.

Reason told her that she was just an outsider here, and seeing someone else's close family relationship was nothing more than a torture of her heart.

However, in her sensibility, she was so yearning for this kind of relationship that she couldn't ask for.

Should I be near them?She would ask herself, trying to stop herself,
But at this time, the care and invitation of the father and daughter in front of her opened a gap in this layer of self-set obstacles, which made her feel a warm current in her heart.

Forget it, let's be willful at this time.

Thinking of someone's teachings, she nodded, showing a helpless but heartfelt smile:
"Then, I'm not polite."
