The night market was very noisy, filled with all kinds of noises. Not far away there was a vendor playing some hit online songs on a speaker.
Zhan Xi's voice was originally soft and gentle, and was immediately drowned out by the noise.
The man in black still didn't respond.
Zhan Xi finally noticed the white earmuffs showing from under the brim of his hat.
Oh, no wonder he didn't hear it.
Just as she was about to shout for the third time, Wang He walked up to her and asked, "Zhan Xi, what are you doing? Did you meet your friends?"
He also looked at the man in black behind the stall.
"No, I..." Zhan Xi couldn't answer for a moment.
"Let's go back. It's too cold. I'll take you home first." Wang He rubbed his hands and exhaled a puff of white air from his mouth.
Zhan Xi's heart was in turmoil. He turned around to look at the man in black. He never raised his head, as if immersed in his own world. Zhan Xi could not even see the eyes under the brim of his hat.
With Wang He by his side, Zhan Xi gradually calmed down, suppressed his complicated emotions, and walked back with him.
Luo Jingyu actually felt that someone was looking at him.
The man stood in front of the stall, not picking up the goods on the stall like other customers, but just standing there. He could see a white figure from the corner of his eye.
Luo Jingyu forced herself not to look up and only focused on the red rope in her hand.
Unless that person wants to buy something, he doesn't want to communicate with strangers.
Outside, he didn't like being stared at and just wanted to be an "ordinary person". There was no way for him to communicate with Chen Liang and his wife using sign language. When he was alone, he didn't want anyone to know his secrets.
Therefore, no matter how strong or uncomfortable the feeling of being stared at was, he gritted his teeth and did not look up.
Fortunately, the man left not long after.
—
Zhan Xi reluctantly followed Wang He out of the night market. Wang He said he wanted to drive her home, but Zhan Xi declined and said she would take a taxi back.
The more she thought about it, the more she refused to give up. She even wanted to go back to the night market to confirm, was that person really Xiaoyu
How could Xiaoyu set up a stall at the night market? He had never told her about it. Besides, there was nothing wrong with his appearance. Why would he say that he was not good enough? Would she hate and be afraid of him when she saw him
Wang He felt that Zhan Xi was uneasy and a little annoyed, but he was a cultured person after all, so he asked her in a different way: "Zhan Xi, when will you open your circle of friends to me?"
Zhan Xi's mind was in a mess, and he looked up in surprise: "Huh?"
"You've never opened your circle of friends to me." Wang He smiled and said seriously, "I really like you when I saw you today. If you think I'm okay, I hope you can open your circle of friends to me so that I can know more about your life."
Zhan Xi thought for a while and said, "I'm sorry."
Wang He: “?”
He was rejected?! Unbelievable!!
Wang He couldn't hold back his pride and asked, "Did I do anything wrong? What are you dissatisfied with me for? Is it because of what happened last time? I have explained it all to you."
Zhan Xi said anxiously: "No, no, you are very good. I just think your conditions are too good. You and I are not a good match."
"Ah?" Wang He was even more confused. "My introducer told you about my situation before. I also know your situation. I don't think there will be any problems between us in this regard."
Zhan Xi didn't want to say more, but just said: "I'm sorry, I really don't think we are suitable."
"Are you kidding me?!" Wang He was a little angry. "Zhan Xi, let me tell you the truth. I am sincerely looking for a girlfriend! I heard about your family situation before, and my mother is not very satisfied. But the matchmaker showed me your photo, and I liked you at first sight. That's why I didn't bother with you when you blocked me last time! After all this time, you don't want to find a partner at all, right? Aren't you wasting everyone's time?"
The introducer showed Wang He her photo... Needless to say, it must have been her mother who did it.
Zhan Xi looked up at Wang He and said, "I'm sorry, Wang He. I will transfer the money for tonight's dinner to you via WeChat. I was wrong. You are really outstanding and you will definitely find a girlfriend who is suitable for you in every way."
Wang He's eyes widened: "What do you mean?"
"I..." Zhan Xi didn't know what to say, "I mean that we are not suitable for each other."
"You!" Wang He was furious. "If it's not appropriate, why are you chatting with me? If it's not appropriate, why are you meeting me? It's so cold, am I sick? I ran so far to accompany you to the night market?"
"I'll transfer the money to you. I'll treat you to dinner today, okay?" Zhan Xi's voice got louder. She was so anxious! She was in a hurry to get back to the night market and didn't want to get entangled with Wang He here anymore.
"This has nothing to do with the meal money!" Wang He said in a loud voice, "Don't you think you are being too much? Are all girls nowadays so self-centered? You have been playing tricks on me for half a month, did you know that? Were you chatting with many people at the same time? Did you know the guy in black just now? An online friend? I think you couldn't even walk when you saw him!"
"I'm not kidding you!" Zhan Xi suddenly shouted, "What do you want? I don't like you, okay? I'll transfer the meal money to you, okay? It was you who asked me to meet you! It was you who wanted to go to the night market! Your time is valuable, but isn't my time valuable? Don't you just judge people by their appearance? Do you know what kind of person I am? Do you know my personality, temper, interests and hobbies? You know nothing!"
After saying that, Zhan Xi turned around and left. Wang He shouted from behind: "Zhan Xi!"
Then another voice: "Fuck! Are you sick?!"
Zhan Xi walked very fast, and as she walked, she started to jog towards the night market street.
Little fish, little fish! Is that really you
She asked this question over and over in her mind, running faster and faster.
His long hair was blown by the wind and his back was covered with sweat. After rushing into the busy night market, Zhan Xi stumbled and bumped into several people, earning him a lot of contempt and scolding.
She hadn't run like this for a long time. She ran to the stall in one go. Zhan Xi's pace gradually slowed down. She held the bag in one hand and supported her waist with the other, and she was almost out of breath.
However, when she saw the person behind the stall clearly, her excited heart suddenly sank.
It was this stall! The man in black had disappeared! Behind the stall sat two young people, a man and a woman, both looking at her curiously.
Zhan Xi panted and asked, "Excuse me... huhu... was there... huhu... a man... huhu... in black clothes... huhu... here just now?"
Chen Liang and Mao Mao were stunned. To be honest, neither of them could see the lips of this beautiful girl. Chen Liang opened his mouth to ask a question, but it was only a few words, and the words were unclear, as if they were sticky and rolled out from his throat. Zhan Xi didn't understand a word.
"Ah? What did you say?" she asked.
Maomao was unhappy. He patted Chen Liang's arm, warned him with his eyes, and pointed to the sign on the stall for Zhan Xi to see.
Zhan Xi looked at the sign and was surprised by the five words "Stall owner is deaf-mute".
Oh my god! Did she travel through time? Entered a parallel dimension? Had she hallucinated
Zhan Xi is sure, certain, determined, and confident! There was no such sign on the stall before!
She stared blankly at Chen Liang and Maomao, and the young couple also looked at her in confusion.
After a long while, Zhan Xi picked up the bag, raised his hand to smooth his hair, said "sorry", turned around and left the stall.
Walking out of Fenglin Night Market, Zhan Xi walked aimlessly on the street with his bag, his mind full of the man in black.
Is he really a small fish
How old is he
Zhan Xi recalled the few times he saw the man in black. Although he was wearing a mask and had a student-like hairstyle, he looked to be in his twenties.
Are you sure it's the same person
Zhan Xi answered in his heart: Sure.
The man at the night market stall and the man in the elevator must be the same person. There is no doubt about it.
Then... can I just ask Xiaoyu directly
Will it scare him
What if I made a mistake? What if it wasn't me? Wouldn't that be embarrassing
Moreover, Luo Xinran said that the man was handsome.
Xiaoyu said that he was not in good condition and Zhanxi would be scared when he saw him.
Why are you afraid
Vehicles were coming and going on the street, and the lights and shadows were brilliant. Zhan Xi's eyes swept across the prosperous night scene in a daze. He tried his best to think about it, but still couldn't figure it out. Suddenly, a very strange idea popped up in his mind.
That man, assuming he was Xiaoyu, was wearing a mask all the time!
Could it be that he has... some facial deformity on the lower half of his face
This absurd guess made Zhan Xi speechless. He smiled bitterly, his head in a mess. He thought that he must have a good talk with Xiaoyu when he got home.
—
Zhan Xi and Xiao Yu have an agreed-upon chat time, which starts at 9:30 p.m. every night and ends more than an hour later, every day.
Sometimes Zhanxi sends it first, and sometimes Xiaoyu sends it first.
That night, Zhan Xi took a shower with great ritual, got into bed, hugged Little Whale and turned on her cell phone. Sure enough, Little Whale had sent her a message.
What a Big Fish: Teacher Jidan, did your blind date go well today
Zhan Xi smiled. Xiaoyu was imitating her way of speaking like a child.
She looked up at the ceiling and felt strange thinking that he might live upstairs, and she didn't know which floor he lived on. She already had an image of Xiaoyu in her mind, a cool boy in black, who was a little childish when chatting, so cute.
Egg pudding: No, failed.
Egg Pudding: [evil smile][evil smile][evil smile]
Luo Jingyu looked at the other party's reply and fell into confusion.
Failed... But she didn't look sad.
He felt that he should comfort her.
Big Fish: Don’t be sad, you are a very good girl and you will have a boyfriend with excellent conditions in the future.
Egg Pudding: I’m not sad. I don’t like him, I don’t have any feelings for him, and I’m not moved.
Moved—Luo Jingyu’s heart skipped a beat.
So you have to be moved when you like someone
So is he tempted
At this time, Zhan Xi was holding the little whale doll and was really anxious, so he decided to give a direct hint.
Egg Pudding: I had dinner with my blind date today, and after dinner we went to a night market street, Fenglin Night Market. It was quite lively. Xiaoyu, have you been there
She stared at the screen nervously, waiting for the other party's answer.
Luo Jingyu was indeed surprised at this time.
Did Mr. Jidan go to Fenglin Night Market at night? Are they in the same place
Did she still walk past him
But the night market street has hundreds of customers every night, and Luo Jingyu only stayed there for half an hour. How could she be so lucky to pass by her
How to answer
Did you say you were at Fenglin Night Market at night? Would Teacher Dan ask you what you were doing? Did you answer that you were going to hang out with classmates who were setting up stalls? Would Teacher Dan ask your classmates what they were selling? Or even which stall they were at
If you say you're going to the night market, will she ask if you're going alone or with friends? It's so strange to be alone, but with friends, who are you going with? A man or a woman
After thinking it over, Luo Jingyu felt that no matter how she answered, it would end up being a lie, so she simply cut off the topic at the beginning.
What a big fish: I haven’t been there.
Zhan Xi: “…”
Very good, I can’t chat any further.
Let's save the country in a roundabout way! Zhan Xi decided to go fishing in a different way.
Egg Pudding: It's so cold today, and the wind is so strong outside! It's so scary. I live on a high floor, and I'm afraid the glass windows will be broken by the wind. How about you? Which floor do you live on
Luo Jingyu couldn't imagine the horrible sound of high-rise glass being blown by the wind, so she answered -
What a big fish: It’s okay here, I installed double-layer glass.
Ah! The brat didn't even answer her question directly! Zhan Xi was very depressed.
Egg Pudding: I have never known where you live? East, west, south, north, or east
What a big fish: I live in Qingquemen.
Aoaoao Qingquemen! That's right, it's him! Zhan Xi was so excited that he almost jumped out of the bed.
Egg Pudding: Wow! We live very close to each other, I also live near Qingquemen! Xiaoyu, when can we meet in person
Luo Jingyu regretted sending the message. He forgot that Teacher Jidan worked at Qingquemen and rented a house near the company. But he had another question -
What a Big Fish: What is a Mian Ge Ji
Egg pudding: Face to face, that means meeting!
What a Big Fish: [awkward][awkward] Teacher Egg, I don’t want to meet you.
Big Fish: I told you, I'm a bad guy, you will be afraid of me, so we really shouldn't meet.
Zhan Xi: “…”
Egg Pudding: But I want to see you~[Poor]
What a Big Fish: If you see my true appearance, you won’t think like that. Believe me, I am really thinking about you.
"Ah! It's so annoying!" Zhan Xi took the little whale and smashed it against the pillow in frustration. The poor little whale bounced twice, and Zhan Xi picked it up and held it in his arms.
This fish is too hard to catch! She didn't dare to tell Xiaoyu that she might have seen him, for fear of hurting him. With his resolute attitude, he might block her if he knew!
What is this person insisting on? Or is he hiding something
Zhan Xi had never taken the initiative to ask someone out before, and she was rejected again and again. She didn't know what to do. She gritted her teeth -
Egg Pudding: Xiaoyu, I don’t care what you look like or what your conditions are. I treat you as a good friend and I just want to meet you. Don’t you agree
Egg pudding: cat acting cute.jpg
Big Fish: Teacher Egg, I also consider you a friend, a very, very important friend, so please forgive me, I really don’t want to meet you anymore. I am willing to chat with you on the phone all the time. If you feel annoyed with me, tell me, I won’t bother you anymore. I really don’t want to disappoint you.
—I don’t want to lose you, I want to stay with you forever, even if it’s just as an online friend.
This is what Luo Jingyu really thinks.
Zhan Xi lay flat.
It’s not that she wants to give up, but she seems to understand Xiaoyu’s feelings.
He was really afraid to meet her. It wasn't that he rejected her, but he had this conflicting feeling of wanting to see her but not daring to.
Why was he so sure that she would be disappointed? Annoyed? Frightened
I can’t figure it out. I can’t figure it out. I can’t figure it out!
But it doesn't matter! Zhan Xi knew that he lived upstairs. Although the last time she saw him in the corridor was the day she met Gu Xinchi, a week had passed, Zhan Xi believed that she would always see him in the corridor and in the elevator again.
Go catch some fish!
From now on, Zhan Xi decided to spread the fishing net, find the right moment, and make sure to catch this slippery, stubborn and stupid fish!
—
On Sunday, Zhan Jie called Zhan Xi and asked if he wanted to go to his house for dinner. Zhan Xi declined, saying that he wanted to have a reunion with his college classmates.
Zhan Jie asked: "That Qingqing, or that Luo..."
"bth!" Zhan Xi replied.
Zhan Jie: "BSS? Is your boss going too?"
Zhan Xi: “…”
On the weekend when he has freedom, Zhan Xi doesn’t want to go to his brother’s house.
She almost crossed the entire city to go to the east of the city to play with Luo Xinran. Zhao Qingqing also sneaked out of school. The three girls watched a movie and had dinner together.
During the meal, Zhan Xi mentioned his blind date with Wang He the day before. Zhao Qingqing was very curious and said she wanted to see a photo of Wang He.
"What are you looking at? They have all blocked me." Zhan Xi answered dejectedly, holding his chin in his hand.
Luo Xinran was so happy that he asked, "Did you transfer the final meal money to him?"
Zhan Xi sighed: "I already said I had blocked you, I didn't have time to forward it."
Luo Xinran comforted her: "Forget it, the next one will be better."
Zhan Xi suddenly thought of Xiao Yu and asked Luo Xinran: "Hey, Xinran, do you still remember the boy in black clothes that I saw in the elevator when I accompanied me to look at a house last time? You said he was the handsome guy."
"What handsome guy?" Zhao Qingqing became interested.
Luo Xinran thought about it and said, "Yeah, I remember. What happened?"
"Why do you say he's handsome? Just because of his pretty eyes?" Zhan Xi asked sincerely, "I saw him a few more times later, and he always wore a mask. Do you think there's something wrong with his face?"
"Ah?" Luo Xinran was defeated by Zhan Xi's imagination, "How should I know that? Judging from his outline, he should be quite handsome."
Zhan Xi asked again: "Then what do you think a person should look like to make others feel scared?"
Luo Xinran and Zhao Qingqing looked at each other, and Zhao Qingqing said hesitantly: "...Burn, burn?"
"Cleft lip and palate?" Luo Xinran added.
"Ah!" Zhan Xi's "Ah" was a wavy line, and he felt distressed, and whispered, "No way."
Luo Xinran laughed: "He's wearing a mask, so who knows? If you're really curious, just ask him to take off his mask and show you."
Zhao Qingqing agreed: "Yeah, yeah! Xier, you are so beautiful, you can win anyone you flirt with!"
Zhan Xi was scared: "I don't dare... I'm afraid he will beat me to death."
After finishing the show with the two girls, Zhan Xi took the subway home. On the way, he received a call from Chi Guilan and was scolded by her.
Wang He complained to the matchmaker, saying that Zhan Xi was rude, impolite and uneducated, and not at all like the quiet and gentle person she appeared to be. He relied on his good looks and was very arrogant, and was not sincere in looking for a partner at all.
This was the first time that Zhan Xi received such an evaluation in his life until he was 23 years old.
She listened to her mother's rant with headphones on, but didn't refute. When her mother got tired of scolding her, she suddenly changed her tone and said in a coquettish voice: "Mom, I'm still young, I don't want to find a partner now, I have to work and review, it's very tiring, and I don't have time to chat with boys. Or you can introduce boys to me after I pass the civil service exam, okay?"
Chi Guilan: “…”
After hanging up the phone, Zhan Xi found that an old man sitting next to her was looking at her strangely. She smiled at the old man and then returned to her expressionless face.
She is experienced in dealing with Chi Guilan. When she can't win an argument, she just acts coquettishly and surrenders. As long as she doesn't use this trick often, it can be very effective once in a while.
Looking at her phone, Wenqin told everyone in the work group that they had to wear formal attire and arrive at work half an hour early the next day. They were strictly prohibited from eating breakfast at the company because a Japanese inspection team was coming.
Zhan Xi thought about the pot of "Good Luck". Mr. Sun would probably give it to the Japanese customer tomorrow. He wondered if he would like it.
That was the flower made by Xiaoyu. It was because of this flower that she got to know Xiaoyu. So Zhanxi was actually quite looking forward to the Japanese visit.
Thinking of Xiaoyu, she recalled the conversation with her two roommates. They speculated that Xiaoyu had cleft lip and palate, burns, or other facial deformities. Zhan Xiguang felt sad just thinking about it.
She asked herself, if Xiaoyu was really like this, would she be afraid of him
The answer is no.
No matter what Xiaoyu looks like, she thinks he is a super cute boy.
—
On Monday morning, a five-member team led by the Japanese customer arrived at the company on time to begin a two-day inspection.
The entire company was on high alert. President Sun required everyone to dress formally, keep their desks tidy, and strictly prohibited takeout and afternoon tea. Anyone who received a private courier would be fined.
Zhan Xi reminded Xiaoyu not to give her any more surprises in the next two days, because that would only turn into a fright.
The client was Shunsuke Ikee, a gentle and elegant middle-aged man, dressed in a suit and tie, meticulous, and polite with the Japanese courtesy. The HR girls actually had nothing to do with the inspection team, and Zhan Xi had only seen him from a distance.
As one of the technical leaders of this project, Lin Yan accompanied Mr. Sun throughout the whole process to explain the plan to the client. The two-day inspection ended successfully. On Tuesday afternoon, Lin Yan brought a young man from Mr. Chi Jiang's team to HR and said he wanted to find Zhan Xi.
Zhan Xi stood up nervously: "Looking for me?"
The young man handed over his business card: "Hello, Miss Zhan. My last name is Dong. I am Mr. Chi Jiang's assistant and translator. It's like this. Mr. Chi Jiang received the pot of hot flower work sent by Mr. Sun and liked it very much. Mr. Sun said that this gift was custom-made by you, so Mr. Chi Jiang specially asked me to come and thank you."
Zhan Xi was flattered and took the business card: "You're welcome, you're welcome. I hope Mr. Chi Jiang likes it."
Assistant Dong added, "In fact, Mr. Chi Jiang's wife has also lived in Qiantang in recent years. She is a senior enthusiast of hot flower art, but because of language barriers, she has not been able to find a local enthusiast. Mr. Chi Jiang would like to ask you which teacher made this pot of work. He may ask this teacher to customize some hot flower works later, or he may let his wife communicate with this teacher. I wonder if it is convenient for you to tell him the contact information of the other party."
"That's convenient. I have the other party's contact information." Zhan Xi's first reaction was to push Xiaoyu's WeChat to Assistant Dong. But then he thought that Xiaoyu's chatting skills were really off-putting. Not to mention that the other party was Japanese, even if the other party was Chinese, it would be difficult to communicate smoothly.
Besides, Xiaoyu is just a boy and he has a boss.
So, Zhan Xi told Assistant Dong about Fang Xu's homepage on the Q site and asked him to send a private message to Fang Xu.
Assistant Dong took a pen and paper and wrote down the name of the shop "Xiao Yu Yu Handmade Embossed Flowers", thanked Zhan Xi, and left the office with Lin Yan.
Before leaving, Lin Yan looked back at Zhan Xi and whispered, "You look great in this."
Zhan Xi looked down at his grey suit and trousers, which he bought on Taobao before the interview for more than 300 yuan. Qin Fei said he looked like a real estate agent. Zhan Xi pouted, wondering if Lin Yan should get a new pair of glasses.
Zhan Xi sat back at his workstation and immediately sent a WeChat message to Xiaoyu.
Egg Pudding: Little Fish, Little Fish, I might be able to help you attract customers!
What a big fish:
Egg Pudding: The new owner of the pot of Good Luck is Japanese. He said he really likes your work! He may want to make other works. I gave him your boss’s contact information. Does this count as opening up the international market? [grin]
What a big fish: [Cover face][Cover face] Many people in Japan like embossing, and it is more popular than in China.
Zhan Xi was just about to correct him, saying that it should be "welcome", but before he finished typing, Xiaoyu sent another message.
What a Big Fish: I’m not feeling convenient right now, I’m on the subway and there are a lot of people.
Egg Pudding: Oh, you're going out? Where are you going
Zhan Xi now tries to trick Xiaoyu whenever he gets the chance, trying to find out his personal information. Xiaoyu never doubts and always answers honestly.
What a big fish: Mom and Dad’s house.
Zhan Xi bit his lower lip with his upper teeth—
Egg Pudding: What time do you think you will return home? Do you want to chat tonight
What a big fish: Chat, it’s 78 o’clock.
Egg Pudding: Okay, okay, then you take the subway, I won’t bother you anymore.
Putting down the phone, Zhan Xi held up his chin. Xiaoyu said he would be home at 7 or 8 in the evening. This was a good opportunity! Could she take action? Let's... wait for the fish!
It was 6:50 in the evening and it was already dark. After dinner, Zhan Xi, wrapped in a thick gray down jacket and a scarf, sat alone on a bench not far from the entrance of the community.
There was no street light near the bench, so it was very dark and I could clearly see people coming in and out of the community gate.
Zhan Xi wanted to dress more prettily, but it was too cold outside. Besides, she had a feeling that when she met Xiaoyu, she just needed to show her true self and there was no need to dress up.
She didn't even dare to play with her cell phone, for fear of missing the fish. She sat upright, her eyes fixed on the gate.
The temperature was only 2 or 3 degrees these days, and it was even colder at night. The wind was strong, making the big trees around him rustle. After sitting for ten minutes, Zhan Xi's warm hands were frozen. He hid his hands in his pockets, stamped his feet and shivered, and his face was also cold from the wind.
After waiting for another ten minutes, she sneezed three times in a row and had clear runny nose. She blew it away with a tissue and suddenly felt wronged.
What is she doing? She's like a fool.
But if she didn't do this, she didn't know when she would encounter the little fish again.
Zhan Xi only met Xiaoyu on the day of moving, and never saw him in the community again. For more than ten days, this person has been elusive and refused to meet him. Zhan Xi did not want to give up this good opportunity.
—
This day is Yan Yajuan’s 55th birthday.
Fifty-five is also an integer. Luo Xiaomei, Gao Yuan and Luo Jingyu are all back, and the family gathers together to celebrate mother's birthday.
Luo Xiaomei prepared dinner, and the table was full of dishes, which was no different from that of an ordinary family, but also very different. The difference was that when the five of them were together, no one spoke, and all they could see were their hands fluttering.
After dinner, Gao Yuan played chess with his father-in-law, while Luo Jingyu took the initiative to go to the kitchen to wash the dishes. Yan Yajuan followed him in and patted his arm. Luo Jingyu could only turn his head to look at his mother, knowing that she was about to start the plan to urge marriage that was interrupted by his father at the dinner table.
Yan Yajuan signed quickly, her face showing her anxiety: "Xiaozhe has dated four or five girlfriends, why aren't you anxious? Your sister and brother-in-law introduced you to some girls, why don't you go and talk to them? Those girls are all good and pretty, just think of it as making another friend! You are 26 years old, what kind of girl are you looking for? Tell me what you want, and I'll ask for you."
Luo Jingyu turned his head back and stared at the pool. Yan Yajuan pulled his arm, but he didn't move. She simply stretched out her hands and held her son's cheeks, forcing him to turn his head.
She glared at Luo Jingyu, and Luo Jingyu also looked at her. Yan Yajuan found that she couldn't use sign language in this state. She loosened her hands and was about to "speak", but Luo Jingyu immediately rushed her face towards the pool again.
Yan Yajuan was furious. Her son had been like this since he was young. When he wanted to listen, he would look at you, and when he didn't want to listen, he would turn his head away. No matter how angry you were, he would remain motionless. Anyway, he couldn't hear anything. He would just turn his head and close his eyes. No matter what you said, he would ignore it.
Finally, Luo Xiaomei came in to the rescue and coaxed her mother out of the kitchen. When she came in again, Luo Jingyu had already finished washing the dishes and was wiping them one by one with a rag.
Luo Xiaomei is thirty years old, has shoulder-length hair, a pretty face, and the gentle temperament that is unique to a Chinese teacher.
She patted her brother's arm. When Luo Jingyu turned to look at her, she looked lazy and obviously didn't want to talk about the previous topic anymore.
Luo Xiaomei signed helplessly: I will persuade my mother to stop worrying so much about your marriage, but you shouldn't make her so angry. She has a migraine, so just be a good boy.
Luo Jingyu pursed her lips and nodded. Luo Xiaomei gestured again: Xiaoyu, let me ask you, are you not planning to find a partner
She looked at her younger brother. He seemed to be in deep thought. His drooped eyelashes trembled slightly. After a long moment, he gently nodded.
Luo Xiaomei felt bad: "I know what you are worried about, and I know that Chang Ting's matter makes you feel bad. But Xiaoyu, medical technology is very advanced now, and many things that were unavoidable before can be avoided now. Moreover, I'll say something unpleasant, but you can also find a girl who is born deaf like us, and not have children, and live a good life together. That's fine."
After reading her sister's sign language, Luo Jingyu shook her head decisively without any consideration to express her refusal.
Why? Luo Xiaomei glared at him, and when she saw him turn away again, she patted his arm: I'm asking you, why
Luo Jingyu couldn't answer.
He didn't know why, he just knew that he didn't want to meet any strange girl, no matter what her conditions were.
Luo Xiaomei looked at her brother's stubborn look, and her heart moved. She pulled his arm, and Luo Jingyu could only turn around and face her.
Luo Xiaomei asked: Xiaoyu, do you have someone you like
This was the first time in Luo Jingyu's life that someone had revealed her love affairs. She was too inexperienced to hide it at all. A blush quickly spread across her cheeks, and Luo Xiaomei was stunned.
Luo Jingyu wiped his hands embarrassedly, took out his cell phone to check the time. It was already 7 o'clock. Thinking of the agreement he had made with Teacher Jidan, he signed to his sister: I'm leaving, I have something to do in the evening.
Luo Xiaomei’s eyes widened: Do you really have someone you like
Luo Jingyu wanted to deny it, but she couldn't deny it when she raised her hand. In the end, she had to say goodbye to her parents in a hurry, and fled under the meaningful gazes of her sister and brother-in-law.
—
After waiting for more than an hour, it was already past 8 o'clock. Zhan Xi was completely frozen, his teeth were chattering, and white air was coming out of his mouth, but Xiaoyu had not come back yet.
Just when Zhan Xi was wondering whether he had returned home early, a tall black figure appeared at the entrance of the community.
Zhan Xi: “!”
The young man in black walked along the main road towards the southernmost high-rise building. He still looked the same, with his hood pulled down, wearing a mask, his hands in his pockets, and walking quickly with his long legs.
After he walked about ten meters away, Zhan Xi stood up and followed him quietly.
She didn't dare to get too close to him, for fear of being discovered, but he walked so fast! Zhan Xi had no choice but to jog to catch up. The sound of his sneakers tapping on the ground made Zhan Xi tremble with fear, fearing that he would turn around. Fortunately, he didn't seem to notice and kept walking forward.
When he was about to enter the unit door, an old man who had just thrown away the garbage followed him in. Zhan Xi's eyes widened and he immediately rushed up. When he ran into the elevator room panting, the two people had already entered the elevator. Zhan Xi shouted, "Wait wait wait wait, there's another one!"
She practically threw herself into the elevator car, and both men looked at her strangely.
Zhan Xi immediately looked at the elevator button panel and found that two floors had been pressed, the twelfth and the fifteenth.
Zhan Xi: “…”
Gritting her teeth, she did something really unbelievable for the first time in her life. She pressed and held the two lit buttons, turning them off.
Man in black: “?”
Uncle: “?”
The two men were shocked and had no idea what Zhan Xi was doing. Zhan Xi pressed the button for the eighth floor, leaned against the wall of the elevator next to the keypad, raised his head, and looked at the two people in the elevator with an almost provocative look. His main target was naturally the man in black.
The uncle looked her up and down, took a step forward, pressed the button for the twelfth floor again, and seeing that the man in black was standing still, he helped him press the button for the fifteenth floor.
Zhan Xi: “!”
She glared at the uncle and quickly turned off the light on the 15th floor.
Uncle: “???”
Man in black: “…”
The uncle muttered something and decided not to meddle in other people's business. Zhan Xi raised his head and stared straight at the man in black.
The man in black blinked a few times, looked at the 15th floor which was turned off on the keypad, took a step forward, as if helpless, stretched his right hand out of his pocket, and pressed the 15th floor button again.
What we've been waiting for is now!
Zhan Xi's eyes were almost cross-eyed as she stared at his right hand without blinking. She saw very clearly that there was a red mole on the back of the bottom section of his right little finger, the size of half a sesame seed.
The position, color, and size are exactly the same as the hand in the video on the homepage of "Xiao Yu Yu Handmade Hot Embroidery"! She has studied it countless times in the past two days!
Ha! Stupid fish, fool fish, stupid fish, you are the one who can’t escape!
Zhan Xi's heart was pounding. He stopped fiddling with the elevator buttons and slid to the side of the man in black. He stood one step behind him and looked at the floor display on the LCD screen. The elevator was already going up, third floor, fourth floor...
Zhan Xi stretched his neck, put his hands behind his back, and said timidly: "Um... are you such a big fish?"
The man in black did not react. He just stood there straight without moving, only occasionally looking up at the floor display.
The uncle slowly turned his head and looked at Zhan Xi with a subtle look in his eyes.
Fifth floor, sixth floor...
Zhan Xi didn't understand why he didn't answer. Was it because he didn't hear it because he was wearing a hood? She hesitated for a moment and raised her voice to ask, "Are you a big fish?"
The man in black remained motionless.
Uncle: “…”
Zhan Xi almost stood on tiptoe: "Really?"
The uncle interrupted: "He is such a big man!"
Zhan Xi: “…”
She turned around and looked at the uncle with an aggrieved expression.
If this uncle hadn't been there, she wouldn't have been so pretentious and would have screamed and yelled a long time ago. But he actually wanted to embarrass her.
The uncle frowned and looked worried, as if he was looking at a young, pretty, but mentally ill person: "How do you know he's a fish? Girl, there's something wrong with you!"
Zhan Xi was just about to open his mouth when "ding--" sounded. They had arrived at the eighth floor.
The elevator door opened, but she didn't move. The old man looked at her with a twitching mouth. Even the man in black turned around and looked at her, curiosity written in his eyes revealed through the mask.
Zhan Xi's cheeks turned red, and finally when the elevator door was about to close, he walked out reluctantly.
At this moment, she suddenly made up her mind, turned around to face the two people in the elevator, quickly took out her mobile phone, turned on the camera, and took a photo at the moment the elevator door was about to close.
She didn't look at the uncle's expression, her eyes were focused only on the man in black. She successfully saw his eyes widen instantly, full of astonishment and surprise, as if he had seen a ghost.
The elevator door closed and continued to go up. Zhan Xi stood in front of the elevator on the eighth floor and sent the photos he had just taken to Xiaoyu.
The picture was blurry and the person couldn't be seen clearly, but she still lied with her eyes open.
Egg pudding: fuzzy photo.jpg
Egg Pudding: Xiaoyu, I just met a handsome guy in the elevator. Do you think he is handsome
The little fish didn't reply.
Zhan Xi didn't know what the meaning of doing this was.
She just didn't want to wait any longer, didn't want to guess any longer, didn't want to play games of wits and courage with Xiaoyu any more.
It would have been fine if she had never known who he was, but now she knew! She had been unable to sleep or eat for the past three days, and she was always thinking about him, and she couldn't get through the day.
Zhan Xi touched the tip of her nose, which was numb. It must have turned red from the cold. She leaned her back against the white wall, staring blankly at the elevator door that had long been closed. She didn't know how long she had been standing there.
Suddenly, with a "ding" sound, the elevator sounded and stopped on the eighth floor again.
The elevator door slowly opened. Zhan Xi looked up and saw that there was only one person in the car.
His hood had been pulled down, revealing his fluffy black hair. He was still wearing a mask, and his clear and gentle eyes were now wide open, looking at her in shock.
Zhan Xi’s back left the white wall, and he stood straight, also staring at him blankly.
He walked out of the elevator but didn't dare to approach her. The elevator door closed behind him. Zhan Xi could see the upper half of his face. His face was pale. He must have been very frightened.
She felt so relaxed all of a sudden, a faint smile appeared on her lips, she put her hands behind her back, tilted her head and said to him: "Hi, Xiaoyu, I finally caught you." Please remember:, website mobile version m. computer version., free and fastest update no anti-theft no anti-theft.
