Chapter 26: Talk
"How about it?"
In the afternoon, after Meng Huo handed over the second chapter of Phantom Thief Kidd to Alice, he asked her what she thought.
"Besides wonderful, I don't think I can find other words to describe it."
Alice looked excited and said, "I can't wait to hand it over to the publisher!"
She carefully put the manuscript into the bag, patted the bag, and nodded with satisfaction.
"I'm leaving."
Meng Huo sent her to the entrance. Alice bent over to change her shoes, kicked her a few times, and opened the door to leave.
"That's right!" She turned around and warned, "Don't stay at home all the time, go out and exercise when you have time."
Alice is very concerned about Meng Huo's physical condition.
Meng Huo said hello, but he was thinking about buying a treadmill and going home. Last month's manuscript fee has already been transferred to his bank card, and the poster's remuneration is 4,000, so there is more than 10,000 in the account after deducting the rent, and the funds are sufficient.
This is not only convenient, but also allows Li Qin to use it.
Li Qin went out to look for a job these days. She said that her body would rust if she was idle. Meng Huo wanted to keep her at home if possible.
She also came back very late that day, with a pile of vegetables in her hand, but her face was not very good.
"I've been walking for nothing all day, and I'm not hired anywhere." She complained while cooking: "I wasted the fare, Xiao Huo, do you think it would be better for mom to go back to Qingcheng?"
"What are you talking about?"
Meng Huo was taken aback: "Mom, don't make jokes!"
"But as a mother, I eat your food all day, and I feel very sorry..."
"Mom!" Meng Huo was angry and funny: "What are you thinking, where mothers don't eat their children?"
He went to the kitchen to fight, and comforted Li Qin by the way. Meng Huo knew that his mother was not used to being away from home, and now was the time to be sentimental, but then again, why didn't that female top student at school show any signs of homesickness?
Meng Huo felt that she must have it too, maybe she would talk on the phone with her parents every day.
Today's dinner was either fish or meat, which made Meng Huo smile wryly while eating.
"I said, Mom, don't buy meat all the time, okay, I'm almost being fattened by you."
"It's good to be fat, but you're too thin." Li Qin glared at him. In her opinion, fish and meat are good things: "You paint like you're desperate and don't care about your body. Mom doesn't help you make up." Who will make it up?"
Meng Huo has been working really hard these days. In order to draw Kidd's two episodes in a hurry, he only sleeps for four hours a day, which broke Li Qin's heart.
"I said you child has tens of thousands of manuscript fees, why are you working so hard?" Li Qin complained: "Mom doesn't spend money, saving seven or eight thousand a month is enough for you to grow up and marry a wife."
Meng Huo couldn't laugh or cry.
"I'm still young, why think about such distant things!"
But there are some things that he really should explain clearly. Meng Huo wants to make up for the regrets of his previous life so that his mother can be happy, but happiness cannot be said to be solved by money. Meng Huo wanted to support each other with her, but why didn't he have a slight expectation in his heart?
"Mom, let me ask you something."
Meng Huo put the bowl on the table with a straight expression, "Is dad rich?"
He had doubts in his previous life,
Who was the stranger who adopted him? He knows all the relatives around his mother, and there are no rich relatives at all. And the person who adopted Meng Huo had unimaginable financial resources...
The money he calls Meng Huo every month is no less than six figures.
Meng Huo didn't know who he was, but if not his father, at least he was related.
"..."
However, Li Qin was silent, and she gave an unexpected answer after the silence.
"I have no idea."
She laughed and shook her head: "I don't know anything except your father's name."
Li Qin never told her son about his father because she had nothing to say. That man was just a dream to her, chance encounters, accidental unions, parting was inevitable.
"what is his name?"
Meng Huo frowned slightly, wanting to see if there was any clue about the name.
"Meng Chu, Chu from Chu State, he is the most handsome and perfect person I have ever seen in my life." Li Qin looked nostalgic: "Speaking of which, I took the initiative to chase him..."
"Huh?" Meng Huo's eyes widened, "You went after him?"
He was a little impressed.
"Yes, I fell in love with him the first time I saw him. At that time, I was really beyond my control." Li Qin said with a smile: "Your father was very upset at the time, so I pestered him hard and made him laugh. , and he asked me why, and I told him I was obsessed with him."
Her face flushed slightly.
"And then there was you..."
Meng Huo's jaw almost dropped, his mother was so strong when she was young! But it doesn't seem to be surprising, she would rather raise Meng Huo alone than remarry, she is very strong in the first place.
"I said Mom, the reason why you don't get married is because I'm still Dad?"
Meng Huo was suddenly a little upset. He always thought that Li Qin was the reason why he didn't remarry because of himself, but now it seemed that he was obsessed with his father.
"It's all right, I don't want you to leave my side." Li Qin smiled slightly: "And any woman who has met your father will not be interested in other men."
"Even if he abandons his wife and son?" Meng Huo couldn't help complaining: "Why are you like a nymphomaniac? A man only needs to look good?"
Li Qin's smile froze.
"Xiao Huo..."
She didn't continue talking, but looked at Meng Huo sadly: "Do you want to find him?"
"In no mood."
Meng Huo shook his head, picked up his bowl and ate in silence.
In fact, he worked so hard before more or less hoping to meet his father. He wanted to know why his father in his previous life didn't come to see him? Is it because he's not good enough? If Meng Huo could become outstanding in this life, would his father appear in front of him?
However, Meng Huo changed his mind after hearing Li Qin's words.
Why did he want to meet the man who abandoned himself and his mother? Even without him, Meng Huo and Li Qin could live happily together, and he would be able to support his mother for the rest of his life!
As for the reason for working hard to make money, there is actually another reason: Meng Huo wants to become even stronger. He wants to become a man who will not stop and move forward bravely. This is also a promise to that admirable woman.
But at this time, Li Qin's eyes were a little complicated. She looked at her son and didn't know what to say. Meng Huo, who was eating with his head down, had clear and bright eyes. His demeanor became so mature at some point, that even Li Qin was attracted by his demeanor. It was only now that he suddenly noticed a slight change in the child's face.
His outline seems to have become more defined, and his eyebrows are thicker than half a year ago...
Li Qin seemed to have found Meng Chu's traces on his face, she shook her head, she must be dazzled.
