Chapter Seventy-Five: Cauliflower
Lin Xi wanted to make a fire in the afternoon, set up a hammock, and relax outside in the afternoon, but who knew that the sneezing couldn't stop even the sky.
Only then did he pour the cold powder granules into the cup, and the phone rang.
"Lin Xi, there is a job fair in the first week of school, recruiting volunteers, I have signed up with the new counselor, are you coming?"
I expected Han Yuan to call for this, and asked her on WeChat yesterday.
"Okay, then you can help me register. "The calls are coming, and the first week of school and work shouldn't be too busy.
"Oh yes, you say the new counselors?
Han Yuan, "Yes, you didn't look for her when you chose a course? Oh yes, you are the kind of person who will take a detour past the faculty office in order to be able to avoid looking for a teacher." ”
Lin Xi, "......"
remembered that halfway through the last semester, Han Yuan said that Li Zhiqing had taken a leave of absence, and now the School of Management and Economics has changed to a new counselor, which is in response to Wen Renjin's words that she was imprisoned by Brother G.
"What about Teacher Li?" Lin Xi still wanted to ask, hoping that these gossip could count on Han Yuan to know something.
"Last semester, I just said that I had an accident at home and asked for leave, and then I couldn't contact anyone at the end of the semester. So the school had to recruit a new counselor. Han Yuan gossiped on the other end of the phone, "I also overheard, and other teachers discussed that she might have provoked something bad, do you remember that Officer Ye didn't come to the school to ask her about it before?"
Hanging up the phone, Lin Xi wrapped himself in a blanket, turned on the fireplace, curled up on the sofa, and turned on his laptop.
She and Li Zhiqing have hardly met a few times, but the other party has a lot of intersections with some people around her.
flipped around, except for the group email she sent as a counselor in the school mailbox, and in order to pull a group of several girls who relayed the school games, and added her WeChat, she had nothing to do with Li Zhiqing.
didn't find a reason, Lin Xi continued to read the emails from the school and the company on the sofa, and made plans for himself.
Previously, she was either busy in the imperial capital and didn't have time to eat, or she ate big fish and meat, she planned to nourish her stomach and eat something light.
When she received Ye Zeyan's text message at five o'clock in the afternoon, the housekeeper was cooking dinner for her in the kitchen.
The text message said that he might not be able to come back to the bureau in the afternoon.
Staring at the phone screen, the woman's face darkened. The man didn't call her directly, because he was afraid that he knew that she would be unhappy.
With his eyes closed, he took a deep breath to suppress the displeasure caused by the loss, and his fingers were tangled in what to reply, when the doorbell of the villa rang.
She paused, and a happy smile bloomed on her face. Ye Zeyan must have deliberately teased her, so he deliberately sent such a text message when he arrived.
But after the housekeeper opened the door, he saw that it was the Duan family brothers and sisters who entered the living room, and their happy eyes were slightly condensed, and the temperature was less in a flash.
"Why are you here?"
Duan Qing held a thermos box in his hand, and Duan Xuyang also carried two in his hand.
"Sister, in order to thank you for saving your life yesterday, we made some home-cooked food at home and wanted to treat you to eat. ”
Lin Xi was stunned at the door and blinked, everyone was welcomed in by the housekeeper, and she was not good at rushing people at this time.
The housekeeper took the insulated box and laid out the meal on the large island.
Only then did she notice that she had forgotten the cold powder on the countertop, so she immediately flushed hot water and poured herself a cup.
I have to admit that the dishes on the table are full of color and fragrance. Compared with the boiled vegetables she asked the housekeeper to make, it is more appetizing.
"Thank you. But I asked the housekeeper to cook, and I can't finish so much, so let the housekeeper eat with us. ”
After Lin Xi finished saying this proposal, Duan Xuyang's expression was slightly stunned, but it returned to normal in a flash, and he grinned, "Okay, yesterday I troubled Uncle Butler to send us back, of course we have to thank you together." ”
After all, he was young and couldn't hide his thoughts, Lin Xi didn't notice Duan Xuyang's strange appearance, but he noticed that Duan Qing was a little unusual, "What's wrong?"
"Ah, sister, this dish, we just want to make it for you-"
Duan Qing. Halfway through speaking, he was interrupted by Duan Xuyang, and turned his head to look at Lin Xi who looked like a sunny boy again, "It's okay, let's eat together." ”
While waiting for the housekeeper to cook, it was already dark outside the window. Lin Xi chatted with them painlessly, because Ye Zeyan's no-show mood was not high, and she had no intention of showing hospitality etiquette to Duan Xuyang.
During this period, he sent a text message to You Yang to inquire about the situation, but it was still unsuccessful. You Yang usually doesn't reply to her every other day.
sent a WeChat message to several second ancestors, and asked about You Yang's traces on the side, but only got a negative reply, which made Lin Xi a little worried.
I'm worried that there is something wrong with Duan Xuyang, or if You Yang has an accident.
Finally, she couldn't help it and walked back to the bedroom to call Keiko.
"Have you been in touch with You Yang recently?"
"You Yang?" I didn't expect Lin Xi to ask about this person, Huizi's tone was a little surprised, but he quickly calmed down and said lightly, "Oh, no, I haven't been in touch for a long time." ”
She has been chasing You Yang for so many years, and on New Year's Eve, she saw You Yang and Jiang Linlin beside her playing on the spot, and then heard that she left with the girl that night, and Huizi's heart was almost dead.
"What's wrong with him?" Keiko asked in a nonchalant tone.
Lin Xi bit his lip, listened to the other party's reaction, and noticed a deliberate cold remark, "Ah, it's okay, I just wanted to ask him about something and didn't reply, maybe the New Year is busy." ”
"Hmm. Huizi replied lightly, and only after this stubble had passed did she return to her usual tone, "When will you come back, you owe me a lot of meals before." ”
"In two days, I'll be the first to ask you when I come back," Lin Xi was coquettish, and heard someone on the other end of the phone asking Huizi to go to dinner, it seemed to be her parents.
"Oh yes," Lin Xi called Huizi before she cut off the phone, lowered his voice and hesitated, "You have been ...... lately." Is there any connection with Duan Xuyang?"
"Duan ......" Huizi stuck the word "have" in his throat, and hesitated for a moment, "What's wrong with him?"
He didn't have much scruples about Huizi Lin Xi, and told her everything that had happened in the past two days.
Knowing Huizi's attitude towards him, he added jokingly at the end, "I just think it's a coincidence, if I hadn't been rescued, I don't know if something would have happened to them." ”
"Yes, he and his sister were lucky, but he mentioned going to his holiday house two days ago. It's nothing, I'll go eat first. Huizi's tone was unwavering, and after hanging up the phone, his eyes froze on the other end that Lin Xi couldn't see.
Lin Xi just wanted to inquire about Duan Xuyang, but Huizi heard that his taste changed.
During the New Year, she and Duan Xuyang got along, and the other party cared for her like a little milk dog, and it was also the first time that Huizi experienced the feeling of being loved.
She didn't tell anyone. I am afraid that it will reach Lin Xi's ears, and I will regard myself as the godmother of love and savior ancestors, and point fingers at her.
obviously stated that he was not interested in the man, and even pushed himself at the Christmas party, but now he knows that they are together and wants to run to intervene?
Since Xie Anlun's suicide, she has had a problem with Lin Xi's nosy.
Worried that she would tell Duan Xuyang what Xie Anlun had done to her, she hurriedly called Duan Xuyang.
The phone rang, but the other party didn't answer for a long time. And the next WeChat also sank into the sea.
Huizi carried an anxious heart all night, and the more she thought about it, the more extreme she became.
*
When he went downstairs, Lin Xi saw that the housekeeper had already prepared the meal.
"I won't eat with you," the butler laughed, holding a lunch box in his hand, "I'll bring these to Mr. Daimitsu, and I'll eat with him in the hut." ”
Lin Xi felt that he was so angry, and at the same time he didn't want to stay alone with these two siblings anymore, but the housekeeper had been working here since Lin Zhengxiong was alive and was not used to being with his master.
couldn't resist the other party, Lin Xi had no choice but to agree.
The three of them sat down at the table, Lin Xi looked at the boiled vegetables in front of him, and then looked at the dishes brought by the two of them, and swallowed his saliva.
"Sister Lin Xi pays so much attention to health?" Duan Xuyang chatted with him while the housekeeper was cooking, and learned that Lin Xi was clearing his intestines, "You are so thin, you won't get fat after eating a bite or two." ”
"That's right, sister," Duan Qing acclaimed, "My brother's cooking is delicious, and it's your loss not to eat." ”
Lin Xi tugged at the corners of his mouth, showed an embarrassed smile and politely refused.
She is like that, the more others let her be, the more she doesn't want to.
It's just that he was eating tasteless, oil-free and salt-free vegetables in his mouth, but the tip of his nose was wafting with the tempting aroma of rice, Lin Xi couldn't help it.
I sandwiched a dry pot cauliflower into the entrance, and the doorbell rang again.
The housekeeper was not there, so she hurriedly got up to open the door, choking on herself, coughing as she went.
