Chapter 49: Xia Yu and Huo Yanran
Once this man is busy, time flies!
Before you know it, the shops and streets are lit up, but they are not there to celebrate some traditional Chinese festival! The cequoia trees made of plastic are brought in, assembled high, and then the lights and decorations are hung up one by one, just to cater to the upcoming Christmas shopping boom!
Don't think that Christmas is really that high in people's minds, it's just an excuse for people to date, romance, waste, just like Christmas Eve is an excuse for XX night, you have to ask them what Christmas Eve represents, and few people can really answer.
But as long as there is excitement, there are business opportunities, and each store will take the opportunity to carry out promotional activities, decorated in a foreign style, to attract people's attention.
This afternoon, Xia Yu stood in her best friend's luxury store, and hung golden apples, small candies and other accessories on the plastic Christmas tree with her.
"You're really busy! I went to your province for training for a month, and when I came back for half a month, I asked you out for dinner, but I didn't see anyone once. Huo Yanran poked her head out from behind the Christmas tree and complained.
In some Internet terms in the future, Huo Yanran is a typical Internet celebrity beauty, with a delicate melon seed face, a lip flap with bright red lipstick, and that fashionable dress, walking on the street, all of which make people feel the urge to pick up the camera and take a few blockbusters for her.
However, in front of her best friend, Huo Yanran didn't have to put out a cold and arrogant shelf, she pinched her fingers painted with purple starry sky manicures, and climbed up and down the herringbone ladder.
Of course, this is also because she is not worried about Xia Yu's aesthetics, and she has to do it herself, but Xia Yu has become a sideliner.
"What's the solution? Some time ago, I encountered a big case, and I was busy for more than a week, but it's a pity that those thieves were arrested, and the criminal police team in the city took over. We have all interrogated a few people who have been murdered behind their backs, and they have picked peaches again!" Xia Yu complained to her best friend.
"So hateful?" Huo Yanran was upset for her best friend, "The cases you handle can be taken away by others?
"It's not to grab credit, we still have credit in the early stage, it's just that those thieves, some of them committed crimes in other provinces, and even wanted criminals, so it's more serious, and I want the criminal police team to go to Shun Teng to investigate, but I don't think I'm reconciled, I also want to investigate!" Xia Yu pursed her mouth and said.
Xia Yu wore a skirt again today, after all, it was a rare day off, she was going to have dinner with her best friend in the evening, and her best friend strongly asked her to dress like a woman, no way...... Xia Yu could only change out of her favorite casual clothes and put on the skirt that her best friend picked for her.
"Fault...... I don't like to do idle work, I want to go to the criminal police team, and you don't see if you can go or not!" Huo Yanran said with hatred, "Your father was able to arrange you to the Shaping Street Police Station with a relationship, even if you really went to the criminal police team in the future, wouldn't he transfer you back?"
"Why? can his hand still reach the criminal police team?" Xia Yu said angrily.
"I don't know about this, but I still agree with his approach, you are a girl, what are you doing in that tiring and dangerous place of the criminal police team?" Huo Yanran stretched out her hand and said, "Hand me the bag of candy crutches." ”
"Where are you going to hang this? There doesn't seem to be a line. Xia Yu handed it to her, and then continued, "Hey, I've said it many times, this is what I like to do, just like you like beautiful clothes, like lipstick in many colors, I like to solve cases and catch bad guys, which makes me feel a sense of accomplishment!"
"I can't convince you, forget it. Huo Yanran shook her head, she didn't take the bag of candy, but reached out and pinched a candy cane, opened her scarlet lips, and gently bit off a small piece that her fingers didn't touch, "This bag is not hanging, I'll keep it for myself, you don't eat it?"
"And I want to eat it myself, of course I want to, I haven't eaten this candy for a long time!" Xia Yu went to pull out a tissue and wiped his hands, and then happily grabbed a candy crutch and ate it with relish.
The two were busy in the store for a while, and after arranging the Christmas tree, Huo Yanran closed the door of the store, carried her pocket bag, and went to dinner with Xia Yu, but they didn't go to eat Western food, Huo Yanran knew that there was a good beef hot pot restaurant in Chaoshan, and the two fashionably dressed beauties went to the hot pot restaurant with great interest.
However, she also eats hot pot, Huo Yanran is much more ladylike than Xia Yu, she eats scalded beef balls, she carefully takes a small bite, where is the remaining half of the beef balls hanging, and then continues to drink tea and chat with Xia Yu.
"How is the little girl you told me before?" Huo Yanran gently put down the teacup and asked Xia Yu.
"It's good, the longer it gets, the cuter it gets!" Xia Yu ate with her mouth bulging, and smiled with Huo Yanran, the movements of her hands did not stop, scalding a fat cow with a filter spoon, she sandwiched a piece of Huo Yanran's bowl, and poured the rest into her own bowl.
There's no way, who let Huo Yanran eat less? Give her an extra piece, she can't finish it, and the rest is wasted there.
"You still go to see her as often as before?" Huo Yanran didn't look at the meat, and asked Xia Yu with a smile.
"Well, I'll go back and have a look when I have time. By the way, I didn't tell you before, she now lives in my parents' house, because she cried a lot some time ago, Yang Yan was kicked out by the landlord and didn't find a place to live, but now it's all better, she rarely cries, and she doesn't know how cute she laughs! Hey, I'll show you the photos!" Xia Yu said while putting down her chopsticks with great interest, and took out her mobile phone to show Huo Yanran.
"Wait, you said Yang Yan, is the college student who adopted the little girl?, you let him live in your house?" Huo Yanran's eyes widened, and she looked at Xia Yu in surprise. It was the first time she knew the news, and Xia Yu didn't know why before, so she was embarrassed to tell her.
"That's right, it's just my parents' house, I don't live in it, it's still okay to use it for good deeds!" Xia Yu said as a matter of course.
Huo Yanran touched her chin and looked at Xia Yu with a gossipy face, although the steam of the hot pot was steaming, and she couldn't see anything unusual about Xia Yu, who was eating happily, but Huo Yanran's sixth sense told her: There is a problem here!
"Let me ask you, Xia Yu, this Yang Yan, how is the other person, is he handsome?" Huo Yanran became active, and she didn't want to eat anymore, so she asked with a smile.
"Didn't you ask Luoluo, why did you suddenly ask about Yang Yan?" Xia Yu raised his head and asked with a frown.
