Luo Jingyu put the flower back into the glass vase, spread out her hands, and observed the palms and backs of her hands repeatedly, but she still couldn't figure out what was going on after looking for a long time.
When he was studying at the school for the blind and deaf, many girls said "I like you" to him. Luo Jingyu always answered "Sorry". This was the first time someone said that his hands were beautiful and that they liked his hands.
Luo Jingyu's ears felt slightly hot. If the sentence "egg pudding" was a reading comprehension question, he probably wouldn't get any points. After thinking for a long time, he hesitantly replied with two words.
What a big fish: Thank you.
Unexpectedly, the other party was not done yet.
Egg pudding: You’re welcome.
Egg pudding: My hands are ugly, they look like pig's trotters.
Luo Jingyu: “?”
As if to prove herself, "Egg Pudding" sent a photo. The photo showed the back of her left hand - there was an IV needle hanging on it, and it was covered with adhesive tape, and there was a bruise on the back of her hand.
Luo Jingyu was startled because the other party’s WeChat message came again.
Egg Pudding: Look, the back of my hand is so fleshy that I can’t see the blood vessels. The nurse didn’t get the needle right the first time and had to insert it twice! [Crying]
Is this the point? Luo Jingyu replied quickly.
Big Fish: Did you go to the hospital? Is it serious? How high was your fever
Perhaps he was in too much of a hurry, so he typed the sentence in a mess, just typing whatever phrases came to his mind without thinking about whether they fit together correctly.
Egg Pudding: Dear student, the teacher is sick today, so I won’t teach you grammar. The teacher will ask you quietly, don’t be angry, do you have reading and writing difficulties
Luo Jingyu: “…”
What a Big Fish: Maybe, you haven’t answered yet. How serious is the illness
Egg pudding: Don’t worry, it’s just a common fever and inflammation in the body. Just hang the IV for two days and it will be fine.
What a big fish: Is there anyone to accompany you
Egg Pudding: Yes, my brother.
Luo Jingyu breathed a sigh of relief, not knowing why he was a little worried. He looked back at the photo sent by "Egg Pudding". On the armrest of the infusion chair, the loose sleeves of a beige sweater covered her wrists, and a corner of the coat could be seen, as if it was covering her body.
Her hands were really chubby and her skin was very white, which made the bruises on the back of her hands more obvious. Her fingers were also fleshy, but not short. Her nails were a natural pink, and there were four obvious small pits at the base of her fingers.
The image of a chubby girl emerged in Luo Jingyu's mind. A young girl with a pair of small, fleshy hands, should also have a small, chubby face, and a figure... probably also chubby, right
What a Big Fish: What time does the infusion end in your hospital
Egg pudding: Almost done, one pack left, should be finished by 12 o’clock.
What a big fish: Go home and have a good rest. Are you going to work tomorrow
Egg Pudding: I have to ask for leave because I have to come for an IV drip tomorrow afternoon.
Big Fish: Yes, don’t go to work when you are sick, and rest more.
Having a fever and getting an IV drip was not a big deal. No one else knew about it except Zhan Jie and Qin Fei. Zhan Xi even told his brother not to tell Chi Guilan, for fear that their mother would make a fuss and run from home to see her.
She didn't complain to her roommates, let alone Wang He, and planned to ask for leave from Wenqin the next morning. However, when you are sick, you are always a little fragile. For some reason, Zhan Xi wanted to find someone to play pity on and listen to the other person's words of concern.
"What a Big Fish" is a very suitable person to confide in. He is a stranger, a casual netizen, a very simple little boy. He is very serious and interesting when chatting, with a naive spirit. Although his replies are a bit slow, he never makes people feel perfunctory.
It turned out that his reaction really helped her.
But now he asked about the time when the infusion would end, which made Zhan Xi a little uneasy.
Egg Pudding: Are you going to sleep? It's late. I won't disturb you.
What a Big Fish: I don’t want to sleep. I go to bed late, usually at 2 o’clock.
Egg Pudding: Why do you sleep so late
What a big fish: I’m used to it.
At this time, Zhan Jie came back from outside and sat down next to Zhan Xi again. Seeing his sister holding her phone in one hand and chatting on WeChat, he asked vigilantly: "You are still chatting so late? Who are you chatting with? A man or a woman?"
"It's about work." Zhan Xi scrolled up the chat history and showed the photo of sunflower lily to Zhan Jie, "Do you think this flower is pretty?"
Zhan Jie took a look and asked, "What does this flower mean?"
"Didn't I tell you a few days ago that Mr. Sun wanted to give a gift to a client and asked me to find someone to make a flower arrangement. The other party has started the work and is reporting the progress to me." Zhan Xi said confidently.
Zhan Jie believed it: "Just chat for a few minutes. Your company won't give you a model worker award if you're still talking about work when you're sick."
"I still need to discuss tomorrow's progress with him." Zhan Xi glanced at Zhan Jie, "Don't bother me, this matter is very important, the client is a foreign friend."
Zhan Xi had slept all day, so even though she had a fever, she wasn't sleepy. But she didn't really want to discuss the issue of the burn with the fish. She just felt bored and wanted to find someone to chat with.
Egg Pudding: Where do you live? Do you own your own home or rent a house
What a big fish: my own home.
Egg Pudding: Have you ever rented a house
What a Big Fish: I have rented it for more than 4 years.
Egg Pudding: Are you renting alone or sharing a house with others
What a big fish: rented by one person.
Egg Pudding: Isn’t it nice to live alone
What a big fish: Yes, it was very cool [happy]!
Egg Pudding: I’m actually quite depressed today. I’m living with my brother and sister-in-law now, and I want to move out and rent a house. But my brother misunderstood and thought that my sister-in-law wanted to drive me away, so they had a fight.
Egg Pudding: My sister-in-law was so angry that she almost ran away from home. She never chased me away, but I knew she was unhappy living in their house, and I felt very constrained. My sister-in-law is actually a very nice person. She has never yelled at me like she did today.
Egg Pudding: I was thinking, she must think I'm the kind of sister-in-law who stirs up discord and is extremely annoying. I don't know how to get along with her in the future. It must be very embarrassing to see her when I go home. Do you think I should apologize to her
Luo Jingyu watched Zhan Xi finish his text one paragraph at a time and was stunned for a long time. He had never encountered such a topic before. Typing was difficult in itself, and the other party asked him to give his opinion, which made it even more difficult!
He could only reply awkwardly.
Big Fish: I don’t think you are wrong. I think your brother owes your sister-in-law. You can understand that it is your sister-in-law who is sick and you can buy her a gift.
Egg Pudding: Xie is your sister-in-law? What does that mean
Luo Jingyu felt like she was sweating and it took her a long time to find the two correct words.
What a Big Fish: Explanation.
Egg Pudding: Oh, oh, oh! You want me to explain it to my sister-in-law? And buy her a gift
What a Big Fish: Yes, family members need to communicate more.
Egg Pudding: Okay, I understand. I really want to have a good chat with her and tell her the truth. I actually like her very much.
Big Fish: If you want to give me a gift, I have a beautiful brooch made of hot stamping flowers. Tell me how old my sister-in-law is, and I will give one to you, and you give one to her.
Egg Pudding: Wow! So good? Your brooches are not cheap! I saw them on Taobao and they cost several hundred yuan each!
What a big fish: Little thing, you are the egg teacher, it’s time to show your respect to the teacher. [Smile]
Egg Pudding: [Moved] Woo woo woo… I will definitely teach you well when I recover from my illness. You really need to practice your conversation skills, otherwise I’m afraid you won’t be able to find a partner!
What a Big Fish: [Covering face] I don’t want to find a partner for now.
Egg Pudding: Oh, you just failed in a blind date, what's the big deal! I'm telling you, I just thought about it again. Next time you go on a blind date, bring a flower you made to the girl. She will definitely like it, and you can even talk to her about making flowers. How cool!
What a big fish: [dazed]
Egg Pudding: Really, your flowers are so well made, this is your shining point!
Big Fish: But a flower is very expensive, a rose costs 300 yuan! I am at a disadvantage for failing the blind date! !
"Pfft!" Zhan Xi laughed out loud on the chair. Zhan Jie was playing games. He turned his head to look at her and found that his sister was shaking with laughter.
"..." Zhan Jie asked curiously, "What are you talking about? Why are you so happy?"
"Nothing." Maybe the potion took effect, Zhan Xi didn't feel as uncomfortable as before. He could almost imagine the painful expression of the boy on the other end of the Internet.
A rose costs 300 yuan? That's expensive, and it takes time. It took him four hours to make a lily. If he keeps going on blind dates and giving them away, the little boy will probably cry.
Egg Pudding: I'm just kidding.
What a big fish: Do you think I’m stingy
Egg Pudding: No! You even gave me a brooch, how can you be stingy
What a Big Fish: How old is your sister-in-law
Egg pudding:33.
Luo Jingyu thought about it and asked again.
What a Big Fish: So how old is your brother
Egg Pudding: 34, what’s the matter
Luo Jingyu began to imagine again, how old should the sister be if the brother is 34 years old
Luo Xiaomei was four years older than him. Generally speaking, the age difference between siblings was six or seven years, right? Then she must be 27 at the youngest. They had met twice and she had asked him if he was very young. When he spoke to her, he always felt like an elder to a younger person. It wasn't oppression, but kindness and amiability.
From this point of view, "Egg Pudding" should be a young lady in her thirties, with a plump figure and a gentle personality
Her image is becoming more and more three-dimensional!
Luo Jingyu praised his own logical reasoning ability, ignoring the tragic past when his math teacher once scolded him for his poor logical thinking when he was in school.
What a Big Fish: Nothing, I’m just asking.
Luo Jingyu had been doing the embossing for several hours and was very hungry. She planned to make some midnight snack. When she told "Egg Pudding" about it, she was actually a little reluctant to do so. However, the other party was sick and should have a good rest, so he should not disturb him anymore.
What a big fish: I'm hungry, I'm going to make something to eat. You've had your IV drip and you can go home and rest early. Tomorrow I'll take pictures for you after I've made three lilies.
Egg Pudding: Okay, thank you for chatting with me tonight.
What a big fish: You’re welcome.
Luo Jingyu thought of a question, hesitated for a moment, and asked it.
What a big fish: Tomorrow, there will be three lilies. Do you want to take a picture with your hands
Zhan Xi almost fainted from laughing, but she felt ashamed. What on earth had she done before? Was the little boy scared by her? Did he think she was a perverted sister
Egg Pudding: No no no, I was just teasing you! [Smirk]
What a big fish: So my hands, are they really beautiful or not? [Smile]
Zhan Xi couldn't stop smiling.
Egg pudding: Really delicious.
Egg Pudding: I have never seen such beautiful hands!
She ended the conversation with a phrase that the other party often used.
Egg Pudding: I kid you not, good night, little fish.
Luo Jingyu was stunned again.
How did she know his nickname was Xiaoyu
At 12 o'clock in the morning, Zhan Xi finished the infusion. When he walked out of the hospital, he took off his mask and took a deep breath. He actually felt refreshed and a smile appeared on his face.
Zhan Jie's eyes widened: "How can you be so happy even though you are sick?"
"I'm going to be free soon!" Zhan Xi wrapped a scarf around her neck and got into her brother's car. "Brother, I'll come by myself for the IV tomorrow afternoon. After the IV, I'll take a taxi to the company to sign the rental contract. I've already made an appointment with the agent."
"What?!" Zhan Jie realized how big his sister's idea was at this moment, "When did you start looking for a house?"
Zhan Xi didn't intend to give out Luo Xinran: "The house is next to the company. I went to see it during my lunch break. Anyway, it has all the furniture and appliances. I will move in next weekend!"
On the way home, Zhan Xi was in a particularly good mood. In another week, she would be able to live a free life!
