Xiao Ke had been in the meeting for nearly three hours. When he came out of the conference room, he felt that his eyes were all black. It was a bit cloudy outside today. The lights in the conference room were too strong, and the shaking caused his eyes to hurt. He kept his phone muted, and vibrated several times in the middle of the meeting. When he returned to the office, Xiao Ke opened it one by one, and was very happy when he saw Lu Xiaobei.
He replied to Lu Xiaobei: Just had a meeting. Tsk, Master Xiao doesn't go for a few days and someone still thinks about my idol
When he returned to this thread, Lu Xiaobei had already gone to tattoo people, and he had not seen any news. Zhou Sin dismantled the flowers and prepared to throw them into the bucket, but before throwing them in, he picked a few leaves that were not so delicate. When Lu Xiaobei saw it, he burst out laughing. When he smiled, the girl in front of him shivered with fright, and his shoulders were stretched with tension.
"It's okay, don't be nervous." Lu Xiaobei calmed down, "I'll just laugh at what you are doing."
"You laughed so suddenly, I wasn't prepared." The little girl was also a little embarrassed, half lying there looking at her phone.
"What should I do, say hello before I laugh?" Lu Xiaobei was wearing a mask, only showing his eyes, with a blue bald head above his eyes, but it wasn't ugly, and the whole person looked pretty cool. The little girl tattooed her ankle, a very simple little picture, a kitten sleeping on her stomach, with angel wings and a halo. For Lu Xiaobei, this kind of small picture does not need to be transferred, and it takes an hour to get started.
The little girl said, "No, I'll stabilize myself."
Lu Xiaobei said to Zhou Sin while bowing his head to work: "Brother, can you sort out your flowers, some of the buckets in front are rotten, or you can throw them all away."
Zhou Sin ignored him and walked away to look at the first few buckets of flowers. Indeed, it has been a long time, and some flowers are rotten beyond their appearance. Zhou Sin packed up all these buckets, but he picked out some that were not too dry and picked them up again. Lu Xiaobei peeked at him with his eyes, saw that he took out the flowers that were okay and put them aside, smiled and said "tsk" twice.
It's a pity that Xiao Ke was not there. Xiao Ke would be very moved when he saw this scene. But he couldn't see it here, how could Zhou Sin play with those flowers in front of him.
"Brother Lin's client this weekend, take a day to do it, I didn't get it last time." The cute kitten really didn't bother, Lu Xiaobei talked to Zhou Sin while doing it, "Then you have a black and gray flower arm on the weekend, It's the one that covers the scar. I've knocked on the picture with him, no problem. You can adjust it to another time, otherwise it would be boring for you to keep tattooing when Brother Xiao came. But now it's no fun, Brother Xiao doesn't care about you anymore. , you go to work, I have an appointment."
This kid Lu Xiaobei sometimes talks a lot, and Zhou Sin is too lazy to pay attention to him. Burnt-out cleaned up two buckets, took them out and poured them out.
Zhou Sin went out. The little girl raised her eyes from the phone and asked Lu Xiaobei in a low voice, "Is this your boss?"
"Yes, boss." Lu Xiaobei asked her, "what?"
"Aren't you afraid of offending the boss by talking like this?" She looked at the door and asked with a smile, "Is your salary deducted when you're angry?"
"Koubei," Lu Xiaobei changed his hand to hold the machine, pulled on the mask, and got a little bored after a long time, "It doesn't matter if I give it to him, mine is his."
The little girl suddenly smiled and raised her eyebrows slightly. Lu Xiaobei knew what she was thinking. The girls who came here to get tattoos were all at the forefront of the trend, and none of them didn't understand the matter. One hundred people wished that ninety of them would support them, and ten of them knew. I understand, but I don't feel it. It doesn't matter to me whether I love it or not.
"Don't make up your mind, beauty," Lu Xiaobei shook his head a few times and shook his head, "It's the wrong line."
When Zhou Xun threw the garbage back, Lu Xiaobei said, "This mumbling gourd can't suffocate me."
The little girl pursed her lips and smiled, Zhou Sin looked at the two of them, and went upstairs to paint.
In fact, Zhou Sin really wanted to say something to Xiao Ke. Last time, Tang Yawei made a scene in front of Xiao Ke's face, which was very ugly and rude. But Zhou Sin didn't know what to say when he opened his mouth, so he couldn't continue after saying sorry. Teacher Xiao is a very good person, in every aspect. According to the past, Zhou Sin should have said the rejection abruptly, but this time he couldn't say it, and he didn't have the strong urge to reject a person before.
Xiao Ke is sometimes very close to his identity as a university teacher. He is intellectual, polite, empathetic, never embarrassing, and very comfortable to get along with. But sometimes he is like a young big boy, with impulsiveness and enthusiasm, and his eyes are warm and pure. A mature brain and a young heart, this combination is wonderful and very beautiful.
Such a good person can't be dealt with casually, and Xiao Ke's brain is also impossible to deal with. Zhou Sin retreated again and again, and the line of defense was almost gone.
Zhou Sin picked up the phone and opened the chat interface with Xiao Ke. The keyboard popped up for a long time, but still couldn't press it. After hesitating for a long time, he put it down. Throwing the phone aside, he picked up the paintbrush.
-never mind. Some people he should live in the light all the time.
In the blink of an eye, it's not that Xiao Ke didn't want to go to the store. In December, he had both final exams for his two courses, and he passed his grades on the examination papers. In addition, some messes in the school made him very busy during this time. However, after this period of work, he is free, so he is still full of energy when he works every day.
But not going to the store is not just a busy relationship, but also Xiao Ke's own thoughts. Xiao Ke used to chase people a lot, and he knew when to relax and when to tighten. It's annoying to stick tightly all the time, and occasionally loosen it up to let the other party take a breath.
At Christmas, he must go to Zhou Sin, and he also prepared gifts in advance. He convicted Zhou Xing of a leather belt, which was made by hand by an old cobbler. It was very expensive and difficult to make an appointment with. Xiao Ke also took advantage of his old Xiao's relationship with a shy face, and went through the back door to be driven out ahead of time, just waiting for Christmas to deliver. Christmas is very important, not only because of the holiday, but also because it is Zhou Sin's birthday.
Almost two months ago, Lu Xiaobei said that Zhou Sin would be another two months and thirty-six. Xiao Ke made a note in his heart, and later asked Xu Wen about it. They say that their eldest birthday is very memorable, it is Christmas day.
From the last time I met the person and went back from the store until now, Xiao Ke has not contacted Zhou Sin, and only gave a like when Zhou Sin posted a Moments one day. It's still a new picture, very abstract, but very cool, Xiao Ke couldn't help but liked it.
After waiting for so many days, it's enough to loosen up, it's time to tighten.
In the early morning of the day before he came, he wanted to send a birthday greeting, but after thinking about it, he still didn't send it, feeling that it would be better to go directly without giving a reminder. It's just that Xiao Ke didn't expect that he would miss it, and Zhou Sin was not there at all when he passed by in the afternoon.
Xu Wen was very excited to see him come in, and greeted him: "You haven't been here for a long time, Brother Xiao."
"Well, I've been a little busy recently, and there's a lot of school going on." Xiao Ke smiled at her and gave her a box with a piece of cake in it, a Christmas item from the bakery next to his school.
"My God, did you give it to me?" The girl couldn't refuse the beautiful dessert, and her favorability for Xiao Ke was already very high, and now she has risen abruptly by two levels.
"Otherwise? You're just a little girl here." Xiao Ke smiled, "Is Zhou Sin there?"
"Hey, the boss isn't here," Xu Wen looked at her watch. "It's been an hour since he walked. He seems to have gone out to dinner with his friends."
Xiao Ke blinked, not knowing what to say for a while.
"What the fuck is my brother Xiao here?" Lu Xiaobei heard a voice coming out from inside, bumped into Xiao Ke, "Beibei wants to kill you."
"Don't get windy," Xiao Ke said with a bit of disgust on his face, handed him two large boxes of crayfish in his hand, and bought it for him on purpose, "It's hot in the microwave, let's eat together, it's probably cold. Your eldest brother will come back tonight. ?"
"You are my brother." Lu Xiaobei took the crayfish and ran into another tattoo room for him to heat up, then came out again, and said to Xiao Ke, "He probably won't come back, he went out with Fang Xi and the others. Yes, I have to drink, I don't know when I will get it."
Xiao Ke smiled helplessly, nodded and said, "Okay, then I'm leaving, Merry Christmas, I'll come back tomorrow."
Lu Xiaobei came to pull his arm, he probably wanted to stop him, but after thinking about it, he pulled back and said, "Then go, see you tomorrow."
Xiao Ke entered the store for ten minutes and then left again.
As he walked, he sighed that he was overwhelmed. He didn't expect that Zhou Sin would not be in the store. If he knew earlier, it would be better to say it in advance last night, and the gift was not sent out. Teacher Xiao hasn't chased people for too long, so he's still not very skilled.
In recent years, the Christmas atmosphere has become stronger and stronger, and the streets are full of colorful, especially lively. Xiao Ke drove back slowly. It snowed last night, and there were snowdrifts swept by the roadside. Many stores have built snowmen and placed them at the door, all kinds of them are very cute.
Xiao Ke received a text message from an unfamiliar number. He glanced at the red light and said nothing more than "Merry Christmas".
Xiao Ke locked the screen and didn't reply.
The phone rang as soon as it was put aside. Xiao Ke glanced at it, and "Zhou" was displayed on the screen.
Xiao Ke had to admit that at that moment, his heart suddenly became active, as if it jumped from the ground to mid-air, and then fell back after a turn, and even flipped a few times.
Xiao Ke picked up the phone and connected the call.
There was a lot of noise over the phone, and before Zhou Sin made a sound, Xiao Ke said with a comfortable smile in his voice: "Mr. Zhou, Merry Christmas. Happy Birthday."
Zhou Sin said thank you. When his voice came out of the receiver, Xiao Ke sighed in his heart, it's really been a long time since he called, and after listening to the voice, he realized that he really wanted to.
After Zhou Sin said thank you, he paused for a while, then slowly opened his mouth and asked in a low voice, "Mr. Xiao, are you here for dinner? It's all people you've met."
