The distance is not far, and it didn't take long to arrive at the community where Xia Zhen lived.
"Are you free tomorrow?" Pei Chengan asked.
The next day was Sunday. On previous Sundays, Xia Zhen basically slept in in the morning, surfed the Internet after lunch, or went out with friends, and continued at night.
"Yes." Isn't it just a date
"The weather will be fine tomorrow, let's go hiking together." He thinks this healthy way of dating is very good.
Xia Zhen readily agreed, isn't it just climbing a mountain? Although she doesn't go there often, she is also a person who loves sports, but she hides it in her heart most of the time.
"Then I'll pick you up at 7 o'clock tomorrow morning."
"7 o'clock?" Is it seven o'clock in the evening? Hey, it won't be light until 7 o'clock in the morning, okay? And it's cold in the morning.
"Do you think it's too early?" Pei Chengan's schedule is reasonable and healthy, but he knows that many young people like to go to bed late and wake up late, especially on weekends. "Early to bed and early to rise is good for your health. The air in the morning is fresh and the temperature is not too high, which is suitable for mountaineering. If you go late, the sun is high, you are prone to sweating, and the ultraviolet rays are strong... If you don't like it, then don't go."
Xia Zhen really didn't want to go, but she thought that she wanted to show that she liked Pei Chengan at this stage. If she sacrificed her weekend sleepover for him, then her mother would definitely believe in her love.
"Of course I'm going! It's early, I can go to bed early tonight. See you tomorrow." Xia Zhen opened the door and got out of the car after speaking.
"I'll take you downstairs." Pei Chengan also got out of the car. Xia Zhen hurriedly stopped, "No, no, it's still early, and you can see that there are still many people walking in the neighborhood, so it's safe."
Pei Chengan thought for a while, then followed her, "Call me or send me a text message when you get home."
Speaking of this, Xia Zhen withdrew her hand and took out her phone. "Let me add your q|q number and WeChat, you also have Weibo, right? What's it called?"
Pei Chengan: "I only have the q|q number, but I don't use it very much."
"No WeChat?" Her Moments and Weibo content are quite exciting, which can show that she is a person who loves to play, loves to eat, but is not very hardworking and gentle. How can he let him miss it!
"No." Pei Chengan was reflecting on whether he was too outdated. "I'll go back and study it."
As a result, Xia Zhen joined Pei Chengan's q|q, and when she found out that his q age was 15 years, but his level was only one moon, she felt very disappointed.
Pei Chengan went home to live tonight, his community was only a five-minute drive from Xia Zhen's house. There is a square between their homes, and it is also the best place for aunts and sisters to dance square dances. Xia Zhen's mother and Pei Chengan's mother met there.
Pei Chengan usually lives in the house assigned by the research institute, and he doesn't necessarily go home on weekends. Today is different.
When he got home, his mother immediately pulled him to sit on the sofa, beaming. "How was the blind date today?" Although she already knew the result, she still wanted to hear it again.
Pei Chengan was in a happy mood, and said with a smile: "Miss Xia is very nice, we have decided to date."
"It's great, I'm going to have a daughter-in-law!" His mother, Ms. Zhang, was so excited that she turned to her husband who was watching TV and said, "Are you happy?"
Old Mr. Pei didn't even turn his head, and said, "You haven't written your horoscope yet, what are you doing so excitedly?"
Ms. Zhang snorted, then turned to face Pei Chengan again, "Son, write that apostrophe quickly!"
Pei Chengan: "...I'm going to take a shower."
After taking a shower, Pei Chengan downloaded WeChat and Weibo on his mobile phone, and registered an account, but he was not very good at playing. It was already 10 o'clock, so he decided to turn off the phone and go to sleep. Before turning off the phone, he sent a text message to Xia Zhen, which read: I am very happy today, looking forward to meeting tomorrow, good night.
After sending it, he waited for five minutes, but did not receive a reply from Xia Zhen, so he turned off the phone and went to sleep.
Xia Zhen heard a text message reminding her, but she has been selectively deaf to this voice. She hasn't used text messages to communicate with people for a long time, and the text messages she receives are basically spam, and she doesn't even bother to read them. It's just that sometimes she has an obsessive-compulsive disorder, so she clicks and clears up unread text messages.
It was already an hour later when she saw Pei Chengan's text message.
She had talked to Ms. Tian for a long time before, most of which were about Pei Chengan. Seeing that she was so active and curious about Pei Chengan, Ms. Tian was very satisfied. Although she didn't know much, it was good to talk to her daughter about her concerns. Moreover, she has planned to have afternoon tea with Ms. Zhang tomorrow.
Xia Zhen used to think that her plan was perfect and would be easy to implement, but now she realized that there were too many uncertainties. She also received a lot of inspiration when chatting with her mother. She figured it out. In the past few days, she has played the role of girlfriend well, understood Pei Chengan's likes and dislikes, and then played by ear.
Xia Zhen, who had nothing to worry about for the time being, returned a message to Pei Chengan, lying on the bed, scrolling through Moments and Weibo, and didn't go to bed until after midnight, completely forgetting the "go to bed early" that she told Pei Chengan earlier.
At 6:15 the next morning, Ms. Tian, who knew that Xia Zhen was going to climb a mountain today, came to wake her up.
Xia Zhen only knew that her mother had been talking. As for what she was talking about, she didn't know. She was very sleepy and wanted to sleep, so she pulled up the quilt and covered her head, and the noise suddenly became quieter.
After another ten minutes, Ms. Tian came to wake up again, and this time she directly lifted the quilt.
"Mom! Give me back the quilt! You can't abuse the child like this." Xia Zhen sat up with fluffy hair, half-opened eyes, and a painful expression.
"Pei Chengan is here in half an hour, why don't you get up and wash up!"
"Isn't there still half an hour left? Mom, you also know my speed, it can be done in fifteen minutes, just let me sleep again." Xia Zhen looked very pitiful.
Outside, Xia Zhen's father couldn't bear it, and said, "Just let Zhen Zhen sleep for a while, so I won't be late."
Ms. Tian accused her husband, "It's all spoiled by you."
"Girls are for pampering." Old Mr. Xia retorted confidently.
Xia Zhen seized the opportunity to snatch the quilt from Ms. Tian's hands, and in the blink of an eye, another hill appeared on the bed.
Ms. Tian sighed, "Peting should be appropriate, and she is about to get married..."
Xia Zhen didn't hear anything.
"Even if you marry, you have to marry someone who dotes on her! Since you don't dote on my daughter, why should I give my daughter to him, hum!" In fact, Mr. Xia doesn't want his daughter to get married at all, at least not in the next few years. . His daughter is only in her twenties and has only been out of society for two years, so she hasn't grown up yet.
Ms. Tian knew that her husband was feeling awkward about losing his position as the man he loved the most in her daughter's heart, so she stopped arguing with him and just said: "Well, when he comes later, let him Let him wait slowly. Let others know that our child is not punctual."
"What's the matter waiting? At worst, let him come up for breakfast, and let me see if he is reliable by the way."
Just as Mr. Xia finished speaking, there was movement on Xia Zhen's bed behind Ms. Tian. She turned her head to look, and saw that Xia Zhen had already thrown off the quilt and got off the bed.
"I'm getting up, I can't let others wait." Then he ran to wash up.
Let Pei Chengan come to the door, how can this be possible!
Xia Zhen opened the bathroom door, and was taken aback by Ms. Tian standing in front of the door. Ms. Tian raised the two dresses in her hand and asked, "These two dresses look good, you can choose one."
Xia Zhen seemed to have returned to her childhood.
A long time ago, Ms. Tian liked to dress her up as a princess. It was not until she was ten years old that she strongly resisted and threatened to run away from home. Ms. Tian gave up, and then evolved into the casual and simple casual style today.
After the years when Xia Zhen was fat, Ms. Tian felt that as long as she was thin, she would look good in anything.
But in the past two days, she couldn't help but dress up her daughter beautifully.
Ms. Tian's skirt complex is deeply rooted. Xia Zhen was very helpless, "Mom, I'm going to climb a mountain, not to a dance."
Ms. Tian didn't take it seriously, "You can climb the mountain wearing a skirt. The mountain roads are all steps, so it's not a big deal, and your focus is on dating."
"Mom, based on what I know about Pei Chengan, when he sees me wearing these, he will think that I'm not sincere and don't want to go, and will have a bad opinion of me as a person. By then, he and I may... get dirty." Not really, just normal people would think so.
Ms. Tian felt that what Xia Zhen said made sense, "Then you can wear that white sportswear, it's slim and it complements your skin tone."
While Xia Zhen was taking care of her skin, Ms. Tian opened her cosmetic bag and took out the rice base and mascara. Xia Zhen looked at her expressionlessly, and said, "Mom, don't you think I'm pretty without makeup? Don't you think that wearing heavy make-up to climb a mountain will turn me into a female ghost? And last night He has seen me without makeup."
In the end, Xia Zhen put on some sunscreen, put on a down jacket, and went downstairs. It was 10 minutes before 7 o'clock.
The air in the morning is really fresh, the dew has not yet evaporated, and the dust cannot fly up. Breathing this kind of air is refreshing, and the cold is nothing. It turns out that it feels good to wake up early.
After walking out of the community, he saw Pei Chengan standing by the car, reading a newspaper in his hand.
He was wearing an off-white sports suit with a black thin down jacket on top. This kind of match was actually not good, but he had a good face and figure, so it was a bit mix-and-match, and even looked younger.
Xia Zhen is not a face controler, Xue Chen's handsomeness gave her the feeling: it's too attractive, it's really troublesome. But now the feeling for Pei Chengan is: Yan Hao doesn't need to work hard on dressing.
What's more, she didn't understand why Pei Chengan didn't have a girlfriend. Her thirst for knowledge was aroused.
