Music from the radio station was playing in the car.
Against the background of the heavy bass, the singer's ambiguous articulation is particularly ambiguous.
Peng Yunchen's car is a national model, and its performance is not top-notch, but its interior is comfortable and the environment is clean and tidy. A faint wood fragrance dissipates with the air conditioner, making people relax unconsciously.
Although Xue Xue's expression was very calm, the hands tightly holding the seat belt revealed that her inner fluctuations were far from being indifferent as they appeared on the surface.
She attributed this anxiety to seeing Ying An'an soon.
After all, the other party can be said to have run through Peng Yunchen's emotional life.
Many times, people always talk about letting go of the past, but if the other party has existed in the past for too long and weighs too much, few can really let go.
Because in a way it's like throwing away your past self.
At this moment, the memory fragments buried deep in the brain quietly popped up and stabbed Xue Xue.
She closed her eyes and took a deep breath.
After opening his eyes again, the bottom of his dark pupils were clear.
"What does the teacher like?"
"Um?"
It happened that there was a traffic formation ahead, and Peng Yunchen stepped on the brakes a little deeper.
"I asked the teacher what he likes?" Xue Xue blinked, looking serious. "If I don't know anything about the teacher, wouldn't I be spotted right away?"
She tilted her head slightly.
"So I need to know the teacher better."
This statement sounds reasonable.
Peng Yunchen thought for a while and said, "Okay."
For the next 20 minutes, the car drove at a slow speed in the constant stream of off-duty time, and in the car, Peng Yunchen used his pleasant voice, as if reciting, poured out his wealth information in one go.
Xue Xue couldn't hold back in the end, and laughed out loud.
Peng Yunchen paused when he turned the steering wheel.
"Is it funny that you have a habit of wiping the shell with a paper towel before you peel it?"
"A little... No, it's not because of the hairy crab." Xue Xue gestured to wipe away the tears that didn't exist in the corner of her eyes. "I was just thinking, if you are so honest, you even reported the deposit amount to me, will it be easy to be cheated?"
The main thing is that Xue Xue just wanted to take this opportunity to learn more about the other party, even if it was some ordinary information, but he didn't expect Peng Yunchen to be so "generous".
It was beyond her expectation.
"That's not enough." Peng Yunchen didn't seem to hear that the other party was joking, and said solemnly: "I'm not a fool, and I won't be undefended to everyone."
Hearing this, the smile in Xue Xue's eyes deepened.
"Oh? So according to this, you are only defenseless against me?"
Caught off guard by her rhetorical question, Peng Yunchen didn't know how to answer.
After all, the original intention and Xue Xue's understanding are actually quite different.
But admitting it outright doesn't seem right either.
"If the teacher doesn't speak, I will acquiesce." Xue Xue's tone is brisk. "I'm so happy, it turns out that the teacher trusts me so much."
At this time, Peng Yunchen finally understood that this person is a typical person who pushes his nose and puts on his face.
The more you talk, the more energetic she gets.
"Why didn't I realize that you are so..." Peng Yunchen thought about his words. "Lively?"
In his memory, Xue Siyuan has always been a steady and well-behaved student. Compared with other students, she is so mature in dealing with the world that Peng Yunchen feels inferior.
Now it's like a box has been turned over, and it's like seeing completely different patterns and colors, which makes people's eyes brighten.
What Peng Yunchen didn't know was that Xue Siyuan would only act particularly well-behaved and steady in front of him.
This is exactly the opposite of Xue Xue.
"That means the teacher doesn't know me well enough." She looked at Peng Yunchen, her eyes couldn't be more innocent. "It's okay, there are still many opportunities in the future."
The place where Ying An asked Peng Yunchen to come out to meet was the western restaurant they had booked on their first date.
At that time, both of them were just high school students. When they stepped into a western restaurant with high-end decoration and an expensive price, they were led to their seats by a waiter wearing a black vest and white shirt with a smile on their faces. The feeling of being out of place is impressive.
Later, they seldom went to this kind of place to eat.
It's not that he can't afford it, but Peng Yunchen is more used to traditional Chinese food than Western food.
Unless An An asks, he would rather go to a restaurant or a dumpling shop.
"Your friend has an appointment, but it was supposed to be for two..."
"I know, but I temporarily decided to invite another friend." Peng Yunchen asked politely without changing his face: "Can't you switch places?"
"Well... Please wait a moment, I will go and confirm the appointment with the foreman."
"Okay, sorry to trouble you."
Finally, the waiter took the two of them to a table for four by the window to sit down.
Ying An'an, who came belatedly, saw the bright smile on Xue Xue's face instantly froze when she saw Xue Xue. From the bright early summer to the bleak late autumn, her expression changed very brilliantly.
