I complained a few times, and Pei Shi Yu just listened quietly. After I finished, she asked:

"You can't stand the loneliness after just a few days?"

"It's the problem of not having anyone to talk to. I can endure three days, but if it's extended for a few more days, I'll suffocate."

"Can't you talk to Xiao Long?"

"He cried at night and wanted to sleep with you. I coaxed him for half an hour."

"Okay, I'll try to come back as soon as possible. I won't talk to you anymore, I'm a little tired today."

Pei Shi Yu hung up the phone without waiting for me to reply. At this moment, Xiao Long on the bed turned over, mumbling in his sleep. Although I couldn't hear him clearly, I knew it was a scene from playing with him during the day.

After I took a shower and lay down, Wang Rui called back. Her voice sounded very excited. It seemed that everyone except me had a great time today. First Pei Shi Yu, and now Wang Rui, I seemed to be infected as well.

"Were you on the phone with your husband just now?" I asked exaggeratedly on purpose.

"I don't know if I'll marry him yet, where did a husband come from!" Wang Rui replied while eating.

"Don't talk nonsense to Mom about my affairs in the future. I didn't know how to answer when she called just now."

"Then you ran so far and there was no progress at all?"

"If she was as open as you, I would have taken action long ago. I don't dare mess around with a woman who's like a nun."

Wang Rui ignored my words and grabbed the first sentence to ask, "How am I open? You have to explain clearly today, otherwise you're ruining my reputation."

"Even your younger brother said you're fickle when it comes to relationships."

"Is being selective the same as being open? What kind of logic and brain do you have?"

"You look like you're very casual, like you can be won over with a midnight snack."

I thought she would get angry if I slandered her, but she didn't. She just warned me in a serious tone:

"This lady doesn't want to curse, change your habit of hurting people in the future. This is a prerequisite for harmonious coexistence."

"Or else?"

"There's no or else or then, this is a warning to you!"

Only then did I put away my joking words and asked her, "When are you planning to go back?"

"Aren't I waiting for you? We were supposed to play together, but you left me in Germany for a woman."

"You Xiang and the others have to go to school, right?"

"Isn't that obvious? Do you know how bored I am!"

"Then why don't you come to Rome? Pei Shi Yu just happened to go to Milan on business. It was originally supposed to be three days, but she just called and said it would be delayed. If you come, I'll have a companion, otherwise I won't have anyone to talk to all day long, which is not only boring but also extremely tedious."

"I'll consider it for one night."

"If you really come, you have to find your own way here, I can't travel far."

"Just tell me the address of the hotel when you're sure you're coming."

Then she jumped back to the previous topic: "Is she really ignoring you?"

"Pretty much, if it was someone else, I would have taken her to bed long ago." I replied confidently.

"It seems she's more serious than me." Wang Rui laughed after saying that.

I didn't slander her anymore and ended the call with the harmonious attitude she wanted.

Staying here is just making phone calls and talking to Xiao Long. After a day, it feels a bit boring. After lying down completely, I separated my quilt from Xiao Long's, for fear of waking him up if I moved.

...

The next day, we received Wang Rui's call just after lunch, telling me that she had not only come, but had already arrived in Rome. I found it a bit incredible.

"Where are you now?" I asked in surprise.

"I've already arrived in the city center, and I haven't eaten yet. Just tell me where you are."

"We live in the most prosperous area of Rome."

Then I told her the name of the hotel, and Wang Rui, like a clairvoyant, was not far from the hotel.

At this time, I was strolling outside with Xiao Long, and then we agreed on a landmark where I was located and asked her to come and find us. It was not a problem for her, she could find it in a matter of minutes.

We arrived at the agreed location before Wang Rui, and Xiao Long asked me, "Is Auntie back?"

"No, you call her Auntie later."

"Who is it? Have I ever seen her before?"

This age is the most curious time. If I don't explain it to him clearly, it seems like he will ask to the end. I looked at him and found that certain personality traits were very similar to Pei Shi Yu, such as being very smart, pursuing food, the tone of speech, liking what he likes, and not being able to force him if he doesn't like it. I have slowly realized these inherent characteristics of their commonalities in the process of contact.

So I explained very patiently: "A friend from our country, you will understand what she says later, and she is also here to see us. You have to be enthusiastic."

"I don't know her."

"Uncle didn't know you before either. After the first contact, won't you know each other in the future?"

"Okay." Maybe he was bored these past few days, so he agreed very obediently.

Wang Rui came very quickly. We only waited for about twenty minutes before we saw her pulling her suitcase and waving to us from a distance.

I immediately greeted her and took the suitcase from her hand. It was very light, and I guessed that after the things inside were taken out, it had become an empty box.

"Let's find a restaurant to eat first, I didn't even eat breakfast." Wang Rui complained as soon as she opened her mouth.

I carried the suitcase in one hand and Xiao Long in the other, and took her directly to the restaurant that Pei Shi Yu had booked for us. Walking side by side with Wang Rui, I introduced to her, "We always eat at this restaurant. Pei Shi Yu originally wanted to send it up to us, and the money has already been paid, so you can order whatever you want."

She smiled and replied, "I love to hear that. My dad cut off my food supply recently, and he didn't give me much money for this trip abroad. He only gave me money for round-trip tickets, saying that he would only reimburse the expenses used on You Xiang, and everything else was at my own expense."

"It's okay, there's still Li Rui. As long as you open your mouth, I believe he will transfer money to you immediately. Although you can't say you're the most beautiful, you still have that charm."

"Thank you for your exaggeration, but I can hear it. The meaning is that I'm not as good as the woman you like. She's beautiful, but I'm more energetic than her."

Wang Rui's analysis was very accurate, but I just like Pei Shi Yu's type, sometimes gentle, sometimes like a little wild cat, able to completely arouse my desire for her, the kind that I would be willing to endure even if she tortured me.

I put Xiao Long on the ground and gently pushed open the door of the restaurant. It was already past lunchtime, so it was very empty and quiet inside. Wang Rui chose a seat herself, and then skillfully ordered her favorite food.

"Is it okay to have a glass of red wine?" She sounded very modest, but she only asked for my opinion after she ordered it.

I smiled and said, "As long as you don't cause trouble, anything is fine."
