The parking lot is very large, and the shopping mall has a lot of traffic, so the vehicles inside are almost crowded one by one. Coincidentally, the lights in this parking lot are broken, and they flicker so hard to see. Ji Xi didn't quite remember where he parked his car, squinted his eyes and looked around but couldn't find where his car was.
"Sister Xiaoxi, we have already passed here just now." Xiaotuanzi pulled Ji Xi to a stop, and pointed to the pillar next to it. There was a sign to turn right at the exit, and someone mischievous posted a sign below. A picture of a pig, "I've seen that pig just once."
Ji Xi also knew that he went around and rubbed his temples, "I'm looking for our car, please be quiet."
Xiaotuanzi didn't expect that Ji Xi was looking for a car, so he thought he was looking for something, "But we passed by the car just now."
Ji Xi paused, then lowered his head and asked, "Why didn't you say it earlier."
Xiaotuanzi raised his head innocently, his emerald-like eyes were innocently clear: "I thought you saw it."
Ji Xi moved his hand, but it was really not Xiaotuanzi's fault, so he could only rub her hair and ask, "Then where is our car?"
Xiaotuanzi rolled his eyes, and instead of answering directly, he said, "I want to eat strawberry cake."
Ji Xi: "..." I really know how to bargain.
"Sister Xiaoxi, can you do it?" Xiaotuanzi is already a little used to Ji Xi's murderous aura, not to mention that the debt is not heavy, so why not let yourself enjoy it before accepting the punishment, maybe this is the "last supper"
"Yes." Ji Xi almost said these two words through gritted teeth.
Xiaotuanzi also accepted as soon as he was ready, and hurriedly dragged Ji Xi left and right for two minutes, and finally found Ji Xi's car.
Ji Xi looked at the license plate, it was really her car, and looked at Xiaotuanzi in surprise, "How do you know you're here?"
"Because I remember." Xiaotuanzi waved his hand disapprovingly.
"Do you remember such a complicated position?" Waiting for Xiaotuanzi to nod, Ji Xi found himself underestimating Xiaotuanzi. She thought this little monster would only be cute, but she didn't expect her memory to be better than hers now. Or is this the unique ability of monsters
Ji Xi couldn't think of a result, so he took the key and opened the car door, then asked Xiao Tuanzi to sit in the back row, went to the driver's seat by himself, and then paid and left the parking lot.
Xiaotuanzi was always thinking about his dim sum, and talked about it all the way, but it was too late, and all the bakeries and dim sum shops along the way were closed.
"I'll buy it for you tomorrow." Ji Xi looked at another dim sum shop that was closed, then turned to Xiaotuanzi and said, "It's very late now, most of the shops are closed."
Xiaotuanzi puffed her cheeks, turned her head to look out of the window, and said sullenly, "But I'm going to eat tonight."
"It's not long since you finished your meal, so you shouldn't be hungry." Ji Xi frowned. The children's set meal in that store is very generous, and there are snacks, so you can be full no matter what.
"I want to eat." Xiaotuanzi turned his head and stared at Ji Xi, "You promised Auntie to buy it for me tonight."
"But it's so late now, and the shop is closed, so you can't blame me." Ji Xi tried to reason with Xiaozhi's emotion, but it was a pity that Xiaotuanzi was rarely determined. When she spoke until her mouth was thirsty, Xiaotuanzi refused to compromise, nor did she have the slightest intention of backing down.
Usually, Ji Xi was flattered by others, so it was rare for him to coax him in a low voice, but Xiaotuanzi was still like this, and immediately became angry: "Ji Cao, don't be so ignorant."
Xiaotuanzi's mouth trembled, and he looked at Ji Xi as if he was about to cry.
"If you say you don't buy it, you don't buy it." Ji Xi got angry and ignored her, and started the car towards home after speaking.
Xiaotuanzi twitched his nose and muttered softly, "Ji Xi is a bad guy."
Passing the red light at the intersection, Ji Xi noticed that it was too quiet behind him, so he looked back.
Xiaotuanzi was lying by the window, breathing towards the window constantly. It was cold at night, and when the breathing gas came into contact with the window, it immediately became foggy, and then Xiaotuanzi drew pictures on it.
Sensing Ji Xi's eyes, Xiaotuanzi turned his head, gave her a resentful look, and then continued to blow on the window.
Ji Xi: ... It made her commit a heinous crime.
The car drove for another distance, Ji Xi looked back and saw that Xiaotuanzi was still in the previous posture, and sighed.
Isn't it just a few pieces of cake, as for this
Although he didn't understand Xiaotuanzi's enthusiasm for cakes, Ji Xi's heart softened and he turned a corner at the intersection.
"This is not the way home." Xiaotuanzi said quietly, wondering whether Ji Xi had forgotten the way home just like he forgot the location of his car in the parking lot.
"I know, shut up." Ji Xi squeezed between his brows, slowed down his driving speed, and kept looking around to see if there were cake shops still open.
Xiaotuanzi said "Oh" and continued to think about life sullenly. At first she pretended to be melancholy to gain sympathy, but seeing that Ji Xi didn't notice her at all, her fake melancholy suddenly became real melancholy.
In this situation, Xiaotuanzi remembered the scene on TV and suddenly said, "I want to sing."
Ji Xi, who was looking around, paused, wondering what Xiaotuanzi was going to do, but she was sure that nothing good would happen. Just looking at Shang Xiaotuanzi's resentful eyes, Ji Xi's words of refusal turned into a "hmm".
With consent, Xiaotuanzi cleared his throat with his right hand, and then began to sing:
"Only a mother is good in the world, and a child with a mother is like a treasure.
In my mother's arms, I'm laughing in my sleep
…”
"Sa—" A white Audi slammed to a stop on the side of the road, almost hitting a tree on the side of the road.
Ji Xi didn't bother to talk about Xiaotuanzi, and quickly got out of the car to make sure he hadn't been hit, and heaved a sigh of relief when he found out that nothing happened. Just noticing the vicinity, her eyebrows furrowed immediately.
"It's scary, why did this car suddenly turn around here?"
"Terrible female driver, almost hit a tree."
"I said that the one who can drive like this must be a female driver."
Ji Xi couldn't listen anymore, and went back to the car with a dark face. Since she was learning to drive, this was the first time she had such an accident. If Li Qingqing and the others knew about it, she would probably laugh for half a year.
Thinking of this, Ji Xi's face turned even darker.
"There are only mothers in the world, and a child without a mother is like a grass
…”
The resentful song was still singing, and only then did Ji Xi think of the culprit. When she turned around and faced Xiaotuanzi, the murderous aura on her body was so strong that it was about to become real, "Shut up."
Xiaotuanzi shut up immediately, but his eyes were still full of resentment, and he hesitated to say "ahhh" a few times.
Ji Xi frowned: "What do you want to say?"
Xiaotuanzi pointed to his mouth. She is a good baby, when Ji Xi said shut up, she shut up.
Ji Xi wondered if he really wouldn't throw Xiaotuanzi away someday, so he pinched the bridge of his nose: "Tell me."
Xiaotuanzi got the consent, and then said aggrievedly: "Just now you agreed to my singing."
Ji Xi had no choice but to say, "I agree with you singing, but I don't agree with you singing this kind of song." He still used that resentful tone. Those who didn't know thought that Ji Xi was going to abandon his family.
"But I just learned this song from TV." Xiaotuanzi felt that the human mind was really difficult to understand, so he asked her to sing and shut up.
"Then stop singing." After such a toss, Ji Xi had given up looking for the bakery and was about to turn around and go home. However, she didn't know if it was extremely peaceful or not. When she turned the corner, she saw a bakery still open.
Ji Xi parked the car on the side of the road, and told Xiaotuanzi while unfastening his seat belt, "Stay in the car well. Don't move around, and don't talk to others."
Xiaotuanzi panicked suddenly: "Are you finally getting bored and leaving me?"
Ji Xi: "... If you ask me again, I will really leave you here."
Xiaotuanzi stared at her for a while, and then said "oh" after making sure that the other party didn't mean that. It's okay even if she is left here, she remembers where her home is, and she will always find her home.
Seeing how well-behaved she was, Ji Xi's originally irritable heart eased a little, and he patted her on the head before getting out of the car.
Ji Xi was lucky, when he entered the store, it was less than five minutes before the store closed. Ji Xi ordered three types of strawberry-flavored cakes, paid quickly and returned to the car.
"This is the strawberry cake you wanted. Hold it carefully so you don't drop it." Ji Xi gave the bag to Xiaotuanzi before returning to the driver's seat, "Are you satisfied?"
Xiaotuanzi didn't expect Ji Xi to detour to find a cake shop for himself, and his heart felt warm immediately, and he nodded hastily when he heard Ji Xi's question.
"Go home." Ji Xi looked at the time, she had to go to work tomorrow, and she would have gone to bed early at this time.
"Yeah." Xiaotuanzi nodded, happily smelling the fragrance wafting out of the bag, her delicate nose twitched, "Sister Xiaoxi, you are really a good person."
Ji Xi, who received the good person card, had already seen through the essence of Xiaotuanzi, so he drove the car calmly. Just now I sang nonsense songs without buying a cake, and I didn’t even call people when I spoke. Now that I have a cake, I will sweetly call her sister Xiaoxi.
When they got home, Xiaotuanzi hurriedly wanted to open the bag, but Ji Xi took the bag away first.
"Did you forget one thing?" Ji Xi only remembered the matter of Xiaotuanzi selling water for glory when he saw the three empty water cups on the coffee table, squinting his eyes and picked up Xiaotuanzi to the sofa, "You promised before You have to behave well, but where did your performance go?"
Xiaotuanzi's brain, which was blinded by the delicious food, suddenly came back to his senses.
Looking at Ji Xi's expressionless face, she rolled her eyeballs and smiled shyly, revealing two dimples. She pulled Ji Xi to sit on the sofa, and she climbed onto the sofa and pressed her shoulders behind her, pinching her back and forth as said on the TV, "Sister Xiaoxi, you must be very tired after driving for so long. I'll give you a massage on your back, how about a massage?"
This is the first time Ji Xi has come into contact with such a bad masseur. His strength is either too heavy or too light, and he has no rules. Come back and press the shoulder. It's not so much a massage as it is prodding.
After enduring it for a while, Ji Xi finally said, "Is there nothing else besides massage?"
"This..." Xiaotuanzi had never served anyone before, so he really didn't know what to do.
Ji Xi cleared his throat.
Xiaotuanzi understood in seconds, "Wait a minute, I'll get you a glass of water." He picked up the glass and ran away.
Ji Xi nodded, but the phone vibrated "buzzing" after a while, and he looked down to see that it was Guan Wanwan's call.
When Xiaotuanzi came out with water, Ji Xi was on the phone. She put the water glass in front of Ji Xi before looking at Ji Xi, and found that the other party seemed to have encountered some difficulties, her brows furrowed like a small hill. She didn't rush the other party, she yawned and sat listening to the other party's speech.
"Send me the plan later, and I'll take a look and reply." Ji Xi hung up the phone after saying this, and patted the top of Xiaotuanzi's hair, "You can take a shower and brush your teeth by yourself before going to sleep, I'm going to the study to do my work."
"But—" Xiaotuanzi was interrupted by Ji Xi before he could finish speaking.
"Be good, be obedient." Ji Xi rubbed Xiaotuanzi's hair, then picked up the phone and went straight to the study.
Xiaotuanzi looked at the water glass and the cake bag, pouted. But it was getting late, and she was also sleepy, so she yawned and went back to her room to get her clothes. When passing by the study, she heard talking inside, muttered a few words and continued walking towards the bathroom.
It was rare that Ji Xi didn't care, Xiaotuanzi took a long bath. If the water hadn't turned cold, she might have fallen asleep.
When he came back from the shower and brushed his teeth, Xiaotuanzi could still hear talking in the study as he passed by.
Tell me, why haven't you finished yet? Xiaotuanzi muttered, suddenly remembered that the cake was not in the refrigerator, and hurried to the hall.
"It's great that it didn't melt." Xiaotuanzi took out two cakes and looked at them, only to be relieved when he found that they hadn't melted. Then he picked up the already cold water glass and went to the kitchen to pour another glass of warm water, then opened the cupboard and took a plate back to the hall
"piece."
"Two dollars."
"Three dollars."
Xiaotuanzi put the cake on the plate, looked at the different styles of strawberry cakes lined up side by side, and swallowed.
"Or..." Xiao Tuanzi silently took one, then another, and another, and the plate became empty in an instant.
Xiaotuanzi hugged his head and sighed, "It's so tangled."
About a minute later, she carried the tray to the door of the study.
"Boom boom boom—"
"Sister Xiaoxi." As soon as Xiaotuanzi spoke, Ji Xi waved his hand.
"Xiaolu, I'm busy right now, I don't have time to play with you, you go to bed first." Ji Xi said without raising his head.
Xiaotuanzi looked at the tray in his hand, said "Oh", and then said "You have to go to bed early" before closing the door.
By the time Ji Xi and Guan Wanwan finished editing the video, it was already past one o'clock at night.
"I don't know if Xiaolu is obedient and went to bed early." Ji Xi deliberately stopped and listened to the door before returning to the room, but he couldn't hear anything, and he was a little puzzled, after all, Xiaotuanzi is not such a good person.
"Squeak—" Ji Xi opened a small gap and found that the room light was still on, so he let go of his heart. She just said, the little guy will definitely not go to bed so early.
However, when she got closer, she realized that Xiaotuanzi had really fallen asleep. Xiaotuanzi's sleeping posture was very poor, with his hands holding the corner of the quilt, his feet under the quilt, and his mouth slightly open, purring softly.
Looking again, there is a tray and a piece of paper next to it. There are three cakes she bought and her water glass on the plate. As for the white paper... there are two matchstick figures drawn on it, one tall and one lower, the lower one is crossed out, and the other is pointing from the left to the taller one. Stickman arrows. The taller stickman should be her, and the shorter one is Xiaotuanzi.
Coincidentally, the cake on this plate is on the left. The meaning of the picture is that these things are reserved for Ji Xi.
Ji Xi never thought that the cake was for herself. She didn't have much appetite at night and didn't eat much, so she was really hungry when she saw the cake. She reached out to touch the water glass, the water in it had been cold for so long, and even felt a little cold at night, but her heart was burning like fire.
Looking at these things, and looking at Xiaotuanzi who turned over and muttered something, the corner of Ji Xi's mouth curled up.
Maybe... It's not a bad thing to have this guy by my side.
