The Lost City of Alien Beasts

Chapter 523 Parents’ Love Story (1)

Gao Yang was in pain and almost couldn't scream. He hurriedly found a tissue to wipe his mouth and covered his mouth.

"Haha, it's normal. Relationships need to work together, and quarrels are also a form of communication." Gao Shou said.

"Dad, are you really planning to propose to mom on the anniversary?" Gao Yang changed the subject.

"Of course!" Gao Shou was serious.

"Why do you suddenly want to do this?" Gao Yang asked.

"It's not sudden. I've been thinking about this for a long time."

Gao Shou took it as a matter of course, and then he sighed a little regretfully: "At that time, there was no such thing as a proposal. We all got married in a hurry. After we got married, we gave birth to you and Xinxin. We were busy making money to support the family. In a blink of an eye, it’s here now.”

"You know your mother's temperament. Even if she wants something in her heart, she will never say it out loud."

"She has always been very particular about rituals. I owe her this proposal ceremony, and it is also a regret in my heart."

Gao Shou took a sip of the drink and looked at Gao Yang: "Son, I seem to have never told you how your mother and I got together."

"I told you." Gao Yang said deliberately: "You struck quickly, accurately, and ruthlessly, and you took advantage of my mother in one go."

"puff--"

Gao Shou almost spat out his coke with a mouthful of coke, "Cough, cough, bastard! I was bragging, but you took it seriously!"

Qing Ling's eyes lit up without knowing when: "Uncle, tell me, I want to hear."

"Haha, okay." Gao Shou put down the Coke, rubbed his nose, and showed off: "The fate between me and Lin Yue, it's so true that even romance movies wouldn't dare to do it like this..."

Gao Shou lives in a rural area. Thanks to his father's (Grandpa Gao Yang) friends, he joined a local textile factory after graduating from junior high school.

Although grandma hoped that Gao Shou would continue to go to high school, although Gao Shou was smart, he didn't like to study. In those days, being able to work in a textile factory was a job that many people dreamed of. Gao Shou's brother also entered the job right after graduation. Textile factory.

The work in the textile factory works in three shifts, but Gao Shou is a "connected person" and has his brother to take care of him, so he doesn't have to work the night shift. He works from [-] to [-] every day, working in the factory, canteen, and dormitory. The days are so regular that they are boring.

Gao Shou had dinner in the cafeteria every day, and then went to a small shop run by an old woman in the town outside the factory with a few coworkers to stay.

A few young people did nothing. Each of them bought a bottle of soda, some snacks such as melon seeds and peanuts, and squatted on the curb outside the store to look at the beautiful women.

Diagonally across the street from the store is the only high school in the town. There are a few people standing guard, waiting for the high school students to get out of school and watch the female high school students.

Several people specially selected beautiful female high school students to admire, and even named and rated them in private.

"Isn't this just a second-rate guy?" Gao Yang looked disgusted when he heard this.

"You're just a second-rate brat, and your whole family..." Gao Shou realized something was wrong and immediately stopped: "Your father and I have a serious job. We've been tired from working all day. What happened to the beautiful young high school girl?"

"You are a young man of seventeen or eighteen years old. He is curious about the opposite sex. Isn't this human nature?"

"We didn't step forward to tease them. We didn't even dare to blow our whistles. We just looked at them from a distance. How could we become second-rate when they come to your mouth?"

"Okay, okay, I was wrong, dad, don't get excited." Gao Yang couldn't laugh or cry.

Qing Ling was also laughing.

"Xiao Ling." Gao Shou glanced at Qing Ling: "Gao Yang's mother back then was as beautiful as you. She was tall, thin, fair, and had black and long hair. However, her personality was not as cheerful as yours. , very silent, always with a cold face, we all call her Snowman..."

Every time Lin Yue appeared, Gao Shou's colleagues would push Gao Shou: "Look, Lao Gao, your snowman is out."

Gao Shou, who was squatting on the roadside, forgot to drink the soda. He bit the straw and stared at Lin Yue in the crowd.

In summer, high school girls wear white shirts and blue skirts. Lin Yue stands out among them. Her hair is very long and tied in a big braid.

She usually goes to school with her two female classmates and always walks on the inside.She nodded slightly and said little. When the two classmates were laughing and playing, she would occasionally smile cautiously.

Every time Lin Yue smiled, Gao Shou's heart rippled slightly like the surface of a lake blown by the spring breeze.

In his fantasy, Gao Shou had come up to chat with Lin Yue countless times, making her smile in a cool and funny way.

In reality, Gao Shou just squatted on the curb and watched her and her classmates carry their schoolbags after school, and disappeared at the intersection after a while.

Occasionally, she would stay with her classmates at roadside food stalls or stationery stores. For Gao Shou, these were additional benefits.

Gao Shou squatted for a year.

Gao Shou's colleagues stopped coming after the initial excitement wore off.

They prefer to go to dance halls to dance disco and meet some unrestrained and enthusiastic social girls. They imitate the celebrities in magazines, wear floral shirts and bell-bottom pants, put mousse on their hair, smoke, drink and fall in love.

Gao Shou has a good appearance and occasionally goes to dance halls with his colleagues. Many girls are interested in him, but Gao Shou is unmoved because he has someone in his heart, that is, the "snowman" who has never spoken to him.

Even if no one is with him, he will still go to the small store on time every day, drink a bottle of soda, wait for Lin Yue to finish school, and then watch her leave.

"Dad, you are such an idiot! You won't be following her directly later, right?" The more Gao Yang listened, the more disappointed he became: But don't let my father follow my mother, and then accidentally commit to a hero who saves a beautiful girl. Something like that.

Gao Yang no longer wanted to hear it.

"In your eyes, is this the kind of person your father and I are?" Gao Shou was very excited: "Besides, there is communication between me and your mother, it is not unilateral on my part!"

"Uncle, please ignore Gao Yang and continue talking." Qing Ling was already fascinated.

Gao Shou continued to reminisce.

Back then, it was not entirely wishful thinking that he could persist for a year.

Because Gao Shou discovered that every time Lin Yue walked out of the school gate after school, she would always look at him.

At first, Gao Shou thought that he was overthinking, but later, he became convinced that Lin Yue had really noticed him.

Every day after school, she would pretend to smooth her hair casually, then raise her head and look at Gao Shou, no more, no less, just take a look.

Then she would pretend nothing happened, get out of school with her classmates, and disappear around the corner.

Then one day, Gao Shou was delayed for something and came 10 minutes late. When he arrived at the canteen, Lin Yue had already finished school.

Gao Shou was still lucky: Maybe Lin Yue would finish class late today?
As a result, naturally we didn’t wait.

Gao Shou was depressed and just about to leave when it suddenly started to rain heavily. Gao Shou was trapped and went to a small store to buy a bottle of soda and wait for the rain to stop.

The old woman who looks after the store is thin and somewhat old.

She had a wrinkled face and was sitting on a small bamboo stool, holding a tattered cattail leaf fan in her hand to shoo away the flies on the shelves.

Gao Shou comes every day, so the two naturally know each other, but on weekdays the old woman is busy doing business, and Gao Shou only stays for 10 minutes and then leaves, so the two rarely communicate.

Today, a heavy rain trapped Gao Shou, and there was no one else in the store.

The old woman cheerfully asked: "Young man, you come here every day at this time, drink a bottle of soda and leave. Is the soda in my store so delicious?"

"Mother-in-law, the soda in your store is different from other stores. It has a kind of magical power. If I don't drink it for a day, I will feel uncomfortable and have no energy to work." Gao Shou lied without blushing or heartbeat.

"Oh, I'm old, but I'm not confused." The old woman smiled: "It's not my soda that has magic power. I'm afraid it's some girl from the school opposite?"
