By the time Lu Chen returned to his apartment, it was already late at night.
After finishing all the competitions of "Singing China" and winning the National Singing Champion, Lu Chen and everyone went to Forget Grass Bar to celebrate and partied until midnight.
He completely relaxed himself and didn't know how many glasses of wine he drank. In a daze, he was sent home by Lu Xi.
When he arrived at the apartment, Lu Chen sobered up a lot: "Sister, why did you bring me back here?"
Lu Xi said angrily, "If I didn't send you back here, would I have left you alone in the studio?"
Drunk people actually need to be taken care of very much. Of course, she would not leave Lu Chen alone.
Unexpectedly, Lu Chen's alcohol tolerance was good, and he didn't get drunk and unconscious.
In the bar, she watched her brother being poured glass after glass of wine, but everyone was so enthusiastic and happy in the evening, so it was not good to spoil the mood and stop them. She just felt a little distressed.
Now that she saw that Lu Chen was sober, her sister was finally relieved.
If she had known earlier, she would have left him in the studio!
Lu Chen said with a smile, "Then I'll sleep on the sofa."
This single apartment was originally rented by Lu Chen. After Lu Xi came to Beijing, he gave it to her.
Lu Xi pinched her nose and said, "Go take a bath first. The smell of alcohol on you is too strong!"
Lu Chen lifted his coat and smelled it. There was no smell of alcohol: "Uh, my clothes are over there."
Lu Xi said angrily, "I bought them for you on the way …"
When she came back, she thought of it. Fortunately, Beijing's business was extremely developed, and there were supermarkets open late at night.
Lu Chen scratched his head. He was really a little drunk.
Lu Xi impatiently stuffed the paper bag in her hand into his arms and pushed him to the bathroom: "Go wash it!"
Lu Chen chuckled and grabbed the paper bag to take a shower.
After taking a hot shower in the bathroom, he washed away the smell of alcohol and drunkenness. After changing into clean clothes and coming out, Lu Chen felt refreshed and comfortable inside and out.
Usually, no matter how busy he was at work, even if he was participating in competitions outside, he would train every day, rain or shine.
After persevering for a few months, Lu Chen's physique was obviously much stronger. The outline of his muscles could be seen on his abdomen. Not only was his physical strength more vigorous, but even his alcohol tolerance had increased a Big.
"Come and eat …"
While Lu Chen was taking a shower, his sister prepared supper for him in the kitchen.
The supper was a bowl of noodles, a simple tomato with eggs, and a few pieces of green onions. The white, red, yellow, and green soup was clear and beautiful. Not only did it smell fragrant, but it also made people want to eat it.
Lu Chen's stomach full of alcohol had been digested by now. It was the time when his stomach was rumbling. He sat down without hesitation and picked up the chopsticks. In the blink of an eye, he ate the whole bowl of noodles and soup!
Patting his belly, he burped with great satisfaction: "I'm full."
It was good to have a home, to have family around!
Lu Xi watched him finish eating, and then said: "Then you go to rest, I will wash the dishes."
Lu Chen nodded: "Sister, thank you."
Lu Xi did not speak, but there was a little more softness in her eyes.
Lu Chen suddenly felt a little embarrassed. His ear was itchy, and he could not help but reach out and dig with his little finger.
During the competition, he wore wireless headphones in this ear.
"Your ear is itchy?"
Lu Xi said: "I will help you. Go to the sofa."
Lu Chen originally wanted to say no trouble, but his sister had already stood up, so he had to swallow his words and follow.
Lu Xi took out the tools from her bag. She let Lu Chen lie down first, pressed the latter's head on her lap, and then cleaned Lu Chen's ear under the light.
At first, Lu Chen was a little nervous because his sister had not been so gentle to him for a long time.
But soon, he relaxed.
He remembered that when he was a child, his sister also cleaned his ear like this.
But when did the brother and sister become estranged and become estranged? Lu Chen really could not remember clearly.
But it was really comfortable to clean his ear!
The two of them did not speak, and the small living room was filled with a faint warmth.
Lu Xi carefully dug out a ball of earwax and suddenly asked softly: "Did you and Ye Zi break up?"
It took a moment for Lu Chen to react, and he said with a bitter smile: "Sister, we did not fall in love."
It was true that he and Ye Zitong had a good impression of each other, but this good impression had not turned into true love, and with the passage of time and distance, it became a faint melancholy and memories.
There were regrets, but they were not sad, because they had not really committed.
After experiencing so many things, Lu Chen wondered if he still had the courage to love deeply.
He said: "At the end of the competition, she sent me a text message, wishing me to win the championship."
Lu Xi was silent for a moment and said: "Ye Zi is a good girl, you did the right thing by not hurting her."
She was very clear how busy Lu Chen had been recently, and he had no time to fall in love.
Or more accurately, Lu Chen did not want to fall in love.
The heavy debt of his family was like a huge mountain, pressing on him.
It was also pressing on Lu Xi.
She could understand Lu Chen's difficulties, but she felt a little sorry.
Ye Zi was a good girl.
Lu Xi's action of picking his ear became more gentle.
"Okay."
Lu Chen agreed, and the tiredness hidden deep in his body quietly attacked, making his eyelids become heavy.
Closing his eyes, Lu Chen fell asleep, and soon there was a soft snore.
He was too tired.
Lu Xi waited quietly for a moment until Lu Chen fell asleep.
Then she took a pillow and replaced her leg as a pillow.
She covered Lu Chen with a thin blanket, turned off the light, and went back to her room to rest.
Late at night.
The living room was plunged into darkness, and the light outside shone through the glass window, faint and weak.
In the darkness, Lu Chen turned over on the sofa to make himself sleep more comfortably.
He slept soundly and relaxed.
In the darkness, there was a familiar voice telling Lu Chen that he and his sister had really reconciled …
So he was relieved.
…
Early morning, Binhai.
Fang Yun got up very early. After a simple wash, she hurriedly ate breakfast and prepared to go out to the supermarket.
Today was Saturday, and the Big Baifu supermarket, which was not far from Dongping District, had a discount. Many times, the prices of fresh meat and vegetables were much cheaper than those in the market, so housewives often rushed there to stock up.
But if they were late, many of the discounted goods would be snatched up, and even if there were any left, it would be of poor quality.
Fang Yun was in a good mood today, so she wanted to buy more things, and specially prepared two big shopping bags.
Before going out, she was a little worried. After thinking about it, she opened the door of the small room.
The room was still air-conditioned, and the temperature was a little low. Lu Xue was lying on the bed, snoring, half of her body exposed outside the blanket, like a sleepy little pig.
"This child …"
Fang Yun complained, found the remote control to readjust the temperature, and then pulled the blanket to cover Lu Xue.
She stretched out her hand and gave Lu Xue's little butt a light slap.
The latter snorted twice in dissatisfaction in her sleep, twisted herself and shrank in.
Fang Yun couldn't help but laugh, turned around and left the room.
She closed the door very carefully.
On the stairs below, Fang Yun met a neighbor, Zhang Meilan, the wife of Division Chief Lin of the local tax collection department.
The collection management department of the local tax bureau was a key department, and Division Chief Lin was regarded as half a real power in the unit. His wife was a little arrogant, and had always been indifferent to Fang Yun.
However, today's situation was very different. When Zhang Meilan saw Fang Yun, she immediately smiled and took the initiative to say hello, "Sister Yun, you got up so early today? Are you going to Big Baifu to buy groceries? "
Fang Yun was stunned and replied, "Yes, you are also very early."
Zhang Meilan said with a smile, "I'm used to getting up early every day to exercise, but today I want to go to the supermarket with you."
Fang Yun was confused by her, but she couldn't refuse to give face, so she could only agree.
On the way to the supermarket, Zhang Meilan said, "Sister Yun, I saw your Lu Chen on TV last night. He's getting more and more promising. He actually won the championship. He's going to be a big star!"
Speaking of last night's final of "Singing China", Fang Yun couldn't help smiling.
Lu Chen's wonderful performance in this crucial competition not only won the high praise of the four judges, but also conquered countless audiences inside and outside the venue. In the end, he defeated all his opponents by a large margin.
As Lu Chen's mother, Fang Yun was really proud.
After the competition, Lu Chen called her, and then many relatives and friends also called.
Of course, in front of outsiders, she still had to remain modest: "It's not so easy to be a big star. Lu Chen was just lucky to meet it. It's hard to say what will happen in the future!"
Zhang Meilan pursed her lips and said with a smile, "Don't be modest for him. My circle of friends on QQ has been spread all over. It's said that your Lu Chen is a musical talent and the pride of our Binhai City. He will definitely have a great future!"
Then she changed the subject and asked, "Does your Lu Chen have a girlfriend now?"
Fang Yun understood a little: "It seems that not yet."
Zhang Meilan was surprised: "Lu Chen is so handsome and talented. How can he not have a girlfriend? Why don't I introduce him to one? My sister's niece is studying at Beijing University. Her character and appearance are excellent … "
Fang Yun was really speechless. She knew that the other party must have a purpose for being so attentive.
She perfunctorily answered Zhang Meilan and soon came to the supermarket.
There were more acquaintances in the supermarket.
"Sister-in-law Lu is here!"
"Oh, Sister Yun, you also came to buy vegetables. What a coincidence!"
"Accountant Fang, I really want to congratulate you. You have given birth to a good son and won glory for our Binhai City!"
"Lu Chen is so amazing. My son admires him very much!"
"Your Lu Chen is really promising!"
Binhai is a small county-level city, and the local circle is relatively closed. Anything that happens often spreads quickly.
Fang Yun lives in Dongping District, where the staff dormitories of the Municipal Finance Bureau, the State Taxation Bureau and the Local Taxation Bureau are located. The news that her son, Lu Chen, participated in the "Singing China" talent competition has long been spread around.
Many colleagues know Lu Chen, so they naturally paid special attention to last night's final.
As a result, Lu Chen lived up to expectations and won the championship!
So when they saw Fang Yun here, everyone gathered around and sincerely congratulated her.
They pushed Zhang Meilan to the side.
Fang Yun was surrounded by people and was at a loss. Her heart was proud and moved!
