The arrogance of the city

Chapter 149 Good

The world is difficult, and what drives people to move forward is never the faint light ahead, but the vast abyss behind them.

He Caiwei stood outside the door for a while, wiping away her tears, and when her emotions stabilized a little, she took a deep breath, picked up the lunch box that fell on the ground, forced a smile on her face, and walked in as if nothing had happened.

"mom……"

After entering the ward, she seemed to have discovered Li Futu's existence, and she paused, "...Why are you here?"

Li Futu stood up, just like what he said, sneaking up behind He Caiwei's back, and said nervously, "I'll see Auntie."

"Wei'er, don't blame him. He also has good intentions. Mom is really happy to see her daughter's boyfriend in her lifetime."

"Mom, don't talk nonsense, you will surely live a long life."

Looking at her mother's smile, He Caiwei did not argue, but glanced at Li Futu, as if she had acquiesced in the identity of Li Futu's boyfriend, and put the lunch box on the bedside table.

"He girl, you have a good eye. I think this young man is reliable and a good match."

The old man in the hospital bed next door said with a smile that he was very open-minded in his old age.

Li Futu glanced at the other party gratefully, like a young man who came to see his mother-in-law for the first time.

"Grandpa Yang..."

He Caiwei bit her lip, her expression twitched, as if she was a little shy.

"Okay, okay, Grandpa Yang will stop talking."

Mr. Yang's smile widened. Looking at He Caiwei and Li Futu, who were so talented and beautiful, he shook his head and sighed, "It's nice to be young."

Xiao Shu looked at it with a smile, her eyes were gratified. Although she had just met and hadn't been in contact for a long time, and she didn't know much about Li Futu's family background, she felt the same as Mr. Yang through the other party's words and deeds just now. It is indeed a good match.

At her age, in her situation, what could be more satisfying than seeing her daughter find happiness?

"Wei'er, mom has never objected to your falling in love, and you have reached the age to experience feelings, why do you bother to hide it from mom?"

Looking at her mother's slightly reproachful gaze, He Caiwei was speechless, feeling distressed in her heart.

What is the relationship between her and Li Futu? Only the two of them know in their hearts. This is a dirty deal. How can she dare to say that the other party is her boyfriend?Although it's nothing to lie, what should my mother do if she asks to meet her 'boyfriend'?
If I wear it to help my mother know the truth, I'm afraid I'll be really pissed off.

So He Caiwei kept silent about this matter, no matter how hard her mother pressed her, she insisted that she borrowed the money from a friend, but she never thought that Li Futu would find this place on his own initiative.

But fortunately, this man is indeed so different, not only did not expose it, but helped her explain the matter thoroughly, relieved the burden on her mother's heart, and let her have no worries.

He Caiwei bit her lip and took a deep look at the man standing at the end of the bed.

"Auntie, don't blame her, she is also filial."

Li Futu knew that He Caiwei definitely didn't know how to explain it, so he helped her smooth things over. "She planned to tell the news that Auntie would be better. I was impatient."

It is said that the mother-in-law looks more and more happy when she looks at her son-in-law. Looking at Li Futu, who is gentle, humble and polite, Xiao Shu's eyes become softer and softer, and she really has the meaning of looking at her son-in-law.

"Just speak for her."

Smiling, Xiao Shu didn't blame her daughter again, "You haven't eaten yet, come on, let's have something together."

"Okay."

Li Futu, who didn't seem to know what politeness is, nodded with a smile, and then blinked at He Caiwei, "I'm afraid that Caiwei didn't prepare my share."

He Caiwei glared at him, but a smile couldn't help but appear on the corner of her mouth, as if it was brighter than the sunshine outside the window.

Xiao Shu saw it with warm eyes.

Although the dishes were simple, the atmosphere of the meal was quite harmonious. Li Futu gave full play to his excellent eloquence, and kept talking about the customs and anecdotes of foreign countries vividly. The smile on Xiao Shu's face never disappeared.

"Have you been living abroad all these years?"

"Yes, I just returned home not long ago."

Xiao Shu nodded, "Living in a foreign country is not easy, it's hard work."

Li Futu shook his head and said with a smile, "Aunt Xiao, when you recover, I can take you abroad for a change of mood. Let's go shopping on Broadway, the Louvre, the Eiffel Tower..."

Li Futu spoke in a loud tone, and came as soon as he opened his mouth.

"Auntie appreciates your kindness. Auntie is so old, but she doesn't have the heart to make troubles. If you really want to, take Wei'er to see it if you have a chance."

Li Futu turned his head to look at He Caiwei, and nodded with a smile: "Of course."

He Caiwei seldom spoke, and ate in silence. She had been quietly listening to her mother chatting with Li Futu. Seeing the two of them talking and laughing like a family, it seemed as if a ray of sunshine shone into their hearts, gradually becoming warmer.

After eating, Li Futu politely offered to leave, because the doctor reminded to pay attention to rest, Xiao Shu didn't force him to stay, and He Caiwei sent him off. "Wei'er, it's not convenient for mom, you give Futu as a gift."

He Caiwei responded, stood up and led Li Futu downstairs, and the two walked out of the inpatient building side by side, bathed in the bright sunshine, He Caiwei said softly: "Thank you."

Li Futu shook his head and smiled, looked at the patients and their families coming and going, and sighed softly: "You don't blame me, I deserve to be happy."

He Caiwei was silent, sat down on the bench by the flower bed, and said quietly: "My mother seems to like you very much."

"Of course, a 'good son-in-law' like me is hard to find with a lantern. Your mother has a good eye."

Li Futu looked very complacent, and sat beside He Caiwei.He wanted to smoke a cigarette, but thought that this was a hospital, so he restrained himself immediately.

He Caiwei turned her head to look at the side face that was getting deeper and deeper, "You treat me so well, are you not afraid that I will rely on you?"

"Depend on me?"

Li Futu was stunned, and then he couldn't help laughing, "You are the campus belle of your Dongda University. This is something that many men dream of, and I can't ask for it."

He Caiwei was silent, staring deeply at this man for a while, finally let go of the 20 years of strength, slowly leaned her head on his shoulder, and murmured: "I'm so tired."

Orphans and widows depend on each other for their lives. In this cannibalistic society, we have staggered to this day. The difficulties and hardships involved cannot be summed up in one word.

Li Futu had pity in his eyes, and his smile gradually faded.

"it's already over."

"I'll be your lover from now on, okay? I won't cry or quarrel, I won't fight or snatch, and I won't expect extravagant..."

Hearing the soft words in his ear, Li Futu, who was used to life and death covered in sins and called a heart of stone, felt a little distressed.

He was silent for a moment, then spoke softly.

"it is good."
