Chapter 54: Release of Ice
At the time, the ice skin began to solve, the waves were bright, the scales and waves were layered, the bottom was clear, the crystal was like the new opening of the mirror, and the cold light was also out of the box—— "Travels to the Well" Yuan Hongdao
The next day, when the first rays of the morning sun shot over the horizon, the grass blades in the lawn were still stained with round raindrops. A breeze blew the rain and dew from the gardenia leaves and ginkgo biloba leaves and dripped onto the lawn, bringing the dew from the blades of grass into the dirt.
Lin Jiaming sat on the sofa, the bloodshot in his eyes showed that he didn't sleep well last night, and he didn't even know when he fell asleep last night. After taking a shower, I sat quietly on the sofa, replaying the scene of Lu Haowan's bath towel falling over and over again in my mind, and the temperature of my body did not cool down because of the cold water in the shower......
"Didi~Didi~Didi~" The sound of the timer on the mobile phone brought Lin Jiaming's eyes back together, and he got up from the sofa and slowly walked into the kitchen. The white porridge in the casserole was bubbling, because Lu Haowan had said when she was cooking porridge before that the rice fragrance waking up to the attic woke her up, so Lin Jiaming deliberately closed the glass movable door of the kitchen, and the air in the kitchen was already filled with rice fragrance at this time.
After turning off the fire, Lin Jiaming took out his mobile phone and looked at the time, it was more than seven o'clock. He quickly took the pan off the shelf, rinsed it in the water, and put it on the other stove. Although Lu Haowan will not wake up for a while, she has to arrive at the company before 8 o'clock, and there is not enough time.
Fortunately, Lin Jiaming still understands the kitchen, he first served a bowl of porridge, cooled it in a basin of cold water, and then skillfully fried eggs and fried vegetables, but more than 10 minutes passed. After that, Lin Jiaming poured the freshly boiled water into the rice cooker, put the steaming drawer, put the plate containing eggs and vegetables into the steaming drawer, plugged in the electricity, and brought the already warm porridge to his mouth, and sent a full bowl of porridge into his stomach in a few bites.
Listening to the sound in the kitchen, Lu Haowan also knew that Lin Jiaming was about to go out. What happened last night made her really not know how to face Lin Jiaming, at least she couldn't face it now. It's the first time that my body has been looked at so much by a man! Although I have been in love before, it is just eating, holding hands, and shopping. As soon as she thought of this, Lu Haowan buried her head deep in the quilt.
"Nier, I'm going out!" Lin Jiaming looked at the attic before going out, wondering whether to say something. At this time, Lu Haowan's head was seen by him, and he was sure that the girl was awake, but he didn't get any response.
Hearing Lin Jiaming call herself, Lu Haowan also wanted to return a "good" or "oh", but she couldn't open her mouth until the sound of the door closing downstairs. Lu Haowan sighed, how can it go on like this, don't you want to meet?
After covering her face on the bed countless times and covering her head countless times, Lu Haowan finally went down to the attic in her pajamas. After washing up, when I went to the kitchen, the rice cooker was lit with a heat preservation lamp, and the casserole was also warm, a warmth rose in Lu Haowan's heart, Lin Jiaming could always think of these details and do it well.
Before you know it, the sun has sprinkled the light of life on the lawn downstairs, and a few sparrows are also chirping and jumping in the clearing. Lu Haowan walked on the road, only feeling that after last night's wind and rain, the air in X City today was unusually fresh, and her mood was much calmer due to the influence of the air. At least, I won't be pestering myself again because of last night's events now. Lu Haowan, who was in a happy mood, took the subway, which was also the first time she returned to the store after recovering from her injury.
For a whole day, Lu Haowan took care of Aunt Zhao's latest boxwood and a goldfinch in the store, and barely repaired a prototype. Under the leadership of the project team leader, Lin Jiaming officially started a new project. It seems that both of them have left the embarrassment of last night behind them.
When the cirrus clouds on the horizon were once again baked golden by the afterglow of the sun, Lu Haowan took the subway back to Lin Jiaming's residence. After all, I made an appointment with Ou Cheng, and I want to meet today, not to mention that this is my own request, and I can't break my promise. At this time, Lin Jiaming was still tapping on the keyboard at his desk. The soft light of the setting sun shone right through the window, shining on him, and before the sunset that was about to sink to the horizon, the dark shadows of several birds flapped their wings and were about to return home.
At 6:20, Lu Haowan appeared at the door of the community where Ou Cheng lived on time. dialed the call that Lin Jiaming sent to his mobile phone last night.
"Hey?" a familiar voice came from the other end of the line.
"Ou Cheng, I'm ......" Before Lu Haowan finished speaking, Ou Cheng had already guessed who she was.
"Wait a minute, I'll be there soon!" Hanging up the phone, Ou Cheng quickened his pace.
Lu Haowan stood on the side of the road, quietly watching the sunset on the horizon between the two floors.
"I'm sorry, I'm late!" Ou Cheng appeared behind Lu Haowan with a basket of vegetables.
"It's okay, I've just arrived!" Lu Haowan turned around, saw Ou Cheng sweating, took out a pack of wet wipes from her bag, took out one and handed it to Ou Cheng. Life is always full of surprises, who would have thought that the two people who were on the same page some time ago are now competing like friends for many years, and they are all intimate between their gestures.
"Actually, you don't have to rush like this, it's still July!" Lu Haowan knew from those beads of sweat that Ou Cheng must have walked back quickly after receiving her call, and she couldn't help but have a good impression of her in her heart.
"Don't be polite! Let's go up. After speaking, Ou Cheng walked in front with a vegetable basket, and Ou Cheng followed closely behind her with a bag. As soon as he opened the door, Ou Cheng beckoned Lu Haowan to sit down, and went to make a glass of lemonade for Lu Haowan himself.
"I only have lemons at home now, I hope you like it! I drank all the ice cubes in the refrigerator yesterday and forgot to freeze them this morning. Watch out for the burn!"
"Thank you!" Lu Haowan took the lemonade, it was indeed as Ou Cheng said, it was quite hot. He put the quilt on the table.
"I know you haven't eaten yet, I passed by the supermarket after work, bought two crabs, and some vegetables, let's eat dinner here!" After speaking, Ou Cheng got up and went to the kitchen, while Lu Haowan sat on the red finger sofa and looked at the living room.
Near the window is a pink desk with an abstract lamp on the left and a stack of books on the right. The floor-to-ceiling curtains in front of the desk were also tied together and hung on both sides of the floor-to-ceiling windows. The finger sofa I sat on was placed against the wall in the middle of the living room, there was a cloth sofa next to the finger sofa, in front of which was a small pink coffee table, the air conditioner and TV remote control were placed in one corner of the coffee table, and the glass bottle with fresh white lilies was placed in the other corner. The most discordant thing on the coffee table may be the two upside-down red wine glasses.
"You didn't come here today just to see me, did you?" said Ou Cheng's voice from the kitchen.
"Yes, I'm here to ease our relationship. Lu Haowan said.
"In a sense, I'm also your rival!"
"It's true that I used to treat you as a rival in love, but since the last time you went to see me in the hospital, I feel that we could have been friends, and even if we couldn't be friends, at least we could communicate normally like ordinary people. Lu Haowan picked up the lemonade on the table, blew it, and took a small sip.
What sour!
"Although you have come here yourself to show your sincerity, I can't fully let go of you right now. I knew him before you, and I chased him for so long, but I couldn't match a chance encounter with you, although I know that it's not your fault, but for you, I always have a hurdle in my heart!" Ou Cheng brought out a plate of fried loofahs from the kitchen, and put the lilies on the desk.
"I know, just like I am with you, I can't be completely relieved. But I can see that you are a open-minded person, and I am willing to know you just because of this!" Lu Haowan stood up and walked to the kitchen door.
"Let's eat first!" Ou Cheng used a tong to clip the two crabs from the steamer onto the plate.
"Is there anything I can do to help?"
"The bowl is in the drawer below, and by the way, take two pairs of chopsticks. ”
Everything was ready, Ou Cheng took out a bottle of red wine from the bedroom, put the upside-down red wine glass on the table, and didn't ask Lu Haowan if she drank it, they each poured most of the glasses, one glass was handed to Lu Haowan, and the other glass was held in his hand.
"You've been recovering for so long, don't tell me you can't drink!"
"I won't refuse!" Lu Haowan and Ou Cheng gently touched their cups and drank them all.
As the sun set, Lu Haowan and Ou Cheng's faces flushed, and they collapsed on the cloth sofa, still holding the legs of the red wine glass in their hands, crab legs and crab shells were placed horizontally on the coffee table, and more than half of the rice was left in the bowls of the two people. On the other side, Lin Jiaming was still sweating at the workstation, and it seemed that he was going to work late tonight.
