Chapter Twenty-Three: Stay

"This is your home?" Su Qiming leaned against the wall of the entrance and looked around at this small house of eighty square meters.

In the afternoon, Gu Nanjia asked him to send her home, and he didn't think much about it, and came over with a foot of oil.

She said that she was afraid that Liu Pei was still waiting for her at the door, but she didn't meet anyone until she walked in the door.

It made him worry for a while.

It's okay, in case you encounter it, I really don't know how to explain it.

The decoration style of the room is very simple, and the furniture is also small, and there is no imagined sense of crowding after living all year round.

There are always all sorts of small decorations to be found in the corners and corners.

The TV stand is full of greenery, and there are a few carefully polished cartoon ornaments on the coffee table.

It can be seen that the owner is pouring his affection into the house, and you can feel the careful thinking of the girl trying her best to make the room feel warmer.

"Come in, don't stand at the door. Gu Nanjia took out a pair of slippers for guests from the shoe cabinet and placed them in front of him, "You sit casually, I'll go change clothes." ”

He was told to sit casually, but there was only a white fabric sofa in the living room.

After the girl walked into the bedroom and closed the door, Su Qiming moved over and sat down.

The sofa was spotless, and even the cushions were carefully smoothed.

Some of them were afraid that they would be wrinkled by themselves, so they had to straighten their backs as much as possible, and their movements were a little stiff.

There was a novel on the coffee table, and I should have seen half of it casually buckled there.

He reached out and picked up the book, which was a ninety-nine edition of Wuthering Heights.

It's been a long time.

The paper of the old book is a little yellowed, and the book is almost as old as hers, right?

I didn't expect her to have such a hobby, and she couldn't help but leak a few laughs.

The drawer under the coffee table was not tightly closed, and I could vaguely see that it was full of books.

The Count of Monte Cristo, The Phantom of the Opera, A Tale of Two Cities...

I flipped through it casually, and they were all famous novels that were quite old.

It's no wonder that her character suffers from gains and losses, and she is always more emotional than other girls.

It's all these books, right?

"If you're interested, take it anywhere, it's all novels and the like, things to pass the time. Gu Nanjia changed into a nightdress and walked out, raising her hand to stroke the long hair curled slightly at the back of her head, just in time to see that he was studying his own novels.

"You don't have a bookshelf, do you?" he said, turning his head back as he put the book back on the table.

"The bookshelves are in the study, and they are full of professional books and movie discs. As he spoke, he walked in the direction of the kitchen, "I'm going to cook, there's something to drink in the fridge, take it myself." ”

Her tone was tepid, as if she was entertaining an old friend who had known each other for many years.

The off-white nightdress was a little short, exposing the girl's fair legs.

She didn't mind, but he didn't know where to look.

This unguarded attitude was too intimate, and it made him feel uncomfortable.

It's a little better when you're in a hotel, but it's always a little inappropriate to stay in someone's house like this.

Especially when she was dressed so homely and offered to cook.

The more the other person behaves as he should be, the more he feels unaccustomed.

"No need. Su Qiming touched his nose and stood up, "I'll leave first if there's nothing to do." ”

Gu Nanjia paused as she walked towards the kitchen and didn't look back.

I didn't expect him to be shy.

Holding back a smile, he took out two cans of drinks from the refrigerator and walked back to the living room, blocking the other party in front of the sofa.

A drop of water condensed from the cold can and slid down the wall of the can.

He reached out and took it, and sat back down on the couch.

"I don't have any delicacies here, don't you mind cooking some home-cooked food?" she crouched down and looked up at him, like she was coaxing a six- or seven-year-old.

Su Qiming was even more uncomfortable, and always felt that the other party was deliberately teasing him like this: "Do you need help?"

"Do you know how to cook?" she was a little stunned this time.

"Usually I live alone, and people who don't know how to cook anymore are forced to be able to fry a few dishes. As he spoke, he reached out and stroked her head.

He took off his coat and put it on the back of the couch and walked towards the kitchen, carefully pulling up the cuffs of his shirt.

Gu Nanjia looked back at his back, and didn't react for a while.

It seems that he was the first to be armed...

was originally at his own home, but he robbed the home field, except for handing over some spices, he couldn't intervene at all.

There were not many ingredients in the refrigerator, so I could only fry two dishes very simply.

At first, I was a little afraid that the cuisine of Sichuan and Chongqing would be a little spicy, but the taste was unexpectedly good.

The chili oil at home is useless at all, but the green peppers are cut into thin strips and fried into the dish.

It tastes exceptionally refreshing.

Two dishes were eaten by two people, and there was no leftovers.

Even the pot of seaweed egg drop soup that Gu Nanjia insisted on cooking at the end was drunk cleanly.

"My notebook in the study, if you don't want to read novels, go to the Internet café. But don't smoke in the house, smoke on the balcony. The girl preemptively cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks on the dining table and pointed in the direction of the study.

"No, I've eaten, it's really time for me to go. Su Qiming declined the other party's kindness, and got up to get the coat on the sofa.

It's not early, and there's no need to stay here.

No matter how you say it, it's a girl's home.,I can't be so familiar with it.。

Gu Nanjia didn't look up, and put the plates together by herself: "There is a convenience store outside the community..."

"What?"

"I don't have any men's pajamas or extra toiletries, so if you have to go out, go downstairs and buy something and come back. ”

"I didn't mean that..."

"I know. She interrupted him and picked up the dishes and chopsticks and walked to the kitchen, "I put the door key on the shoe cabinet, don't make me wait too long, okay?"

Su Qiming was silent for a long time, and finally compromised.

Grab the key from the shoe cabinet and go out the door.

Girls always like to hang flashy pendants on their keychains, and this fluffy duck looks stupid and exactly like her.

Even though I only have a key, I still have to decorate it, as if it doesn't look lonely.

Gu Nanjia stuffed all the dishes and chopsticks into the dishwasher, pressed the automatic cleaning, and sat back on the sofa.

The book on the coffee table was still upside down, and I grabbed it easily.

Where did you see it before?

His eyes swept to the page he had opened, quickly searching for traces of his memory.

By the way, it was in this passage that Catherine turned her back on Heathcliff and became the mistress of Thrushcross Grange.

After only reading two lines, I couldn't read it anymore, so I simply closed the book and threw it into a drawer.

It was completely dark, but I didn't want to move at all.

I didn't bother to turn on the lights, so I leaned on the sofa in the dark...

"Why don't you even turn on the lights?" Su Qiming opened the door with a paper bag from the convenience store.

The incandescent light in the hallway shone in, a little dazzling.

"Ah, I almost fell asleep. Gu Nanjia got up and took the paper bag in the other party's hand, and turned on the light in the room, "Please help me take out the dishes in the dishwasher and put them away, and I'll turn on the water heater for you." ”
