Chapter 038: Waiting Gently
"Little Brother Xi. After standing for a long time, seeing that Chen Xiaoxi didn't look back, Ah Ying had no choice but to speak by himself.
"Bh. Chen Xiaoxi reflexively agreed. She always shouted that, and he always replied.
"Have you eaten dinner?"
"I've eaten it. ”
"Sort of?"
"Had coffee, had dessert and added a fried turnip cake. ”
At the mention of fried turnip cake, Ah Ying smiled. She leaned in front of the computer desk, her hands in her short hair, and she was a little embarrassed: "Brother Xiaoxi, I have a friend getting married on the weekend, and I don't want to go alone." ”
"As long as the red envelope arrives, it's fine. "Chen Xiaoxi avoided the important and lightened. Of course, he could hear her accent on "alone".
"Can you come with me?" Ah Ying decided not to be as reserved as she used to be, she wanted to take a step forward.
"I have something to do over the weekend. Chen Xiaoxi showed an embarrassed expression.
"Saturday or Sunday?"
"Saturday. Chen Xiaoxi blurted out. His appointment with Zhu Beini is mostly on Saturdays, unless Zhu Beini changes.
"Coincidentally, my friend's wedding is on Sunday!"
"......" Chen Xiaoxi regretted it after saying "Saturday", looking at it now, he really shouldn't have said it first.
"This kind of thing won't happen again, so you can accompany me to participate in it once. Ah Ying lowered her voice, her face full of pleading.
Chen Xiaoxi's expression suddenly softened, and he looked at Ah Ying, "Ah Ying." He shouted.
Ah Ying looked up, a spark of hope burning in his eyes.
"I have a girlfriend. ”
Ah Ying's eyes changed, and her stunnedness magnified a little, and she blurted out: "When did it happen?"
Chen Xiaoxi put his long arm on the back of the chair, and didn't say much, just looked at Ah Ying as pure as an elder brother looking at his younger sister. Ah Ying covered his face with his hand: "You mean, to borrow you, you still need to apply to your girlfriend?"
"Not really. It was Chen Xiaoxi's turn to be stunned. He could feel Ah Ying's special feelings for him, and Zhu Hong had just said that pretending to be vague and ignorant was not a good strategy, so he quickly cut through the mess and said something as clear as "I have a girlfriend" to Ah Ying.
Chen Xiaoxi has always prided himself as a man of action, believing that "what to do" is more telling than "what to say". He has never accepted Ah Ying's hints, and has never met Ah Ying in private, as an adult who can think independently, isn't Ah Ying conscious?
Ahem, Chen Xiaoxi firmly believed that Ah Ying would understand his mind through his actions until he met Zhu Beini.
When he met Zhu Beni, he began to have deep doubts about his previous beliefs. Can't Zhu Beini see her liking for Zhu Beini? Is the most basic connection between people all her own imagination? Is it really love to be expressed, and you have to rely on it?
Chen Xiaoxi, a doer, was full of confusion.
"Then you can go with me. Ah Ying grinned at Chen Xiaoxi. It's worse than crying. Without waiting for Chen Xiaoxi to make a clear statement, Ah Ying turned around and left. I didn't forget to implement it again: "It's decided." ”
Hey, it seems that "saying" is useless.
Chen Xiaoxi scratched his head. Is it necessary to consult the master of love?
After finishing the account, Chen Xiaoxi moved to the bar area.
"You've got something on your mind. Zhu Hong only glanced at him and said with certainty.
"How do you know?"
"You forgot who I am!" Zhu Hong looked at Chen Xiaoxi with three-quarters of his face, he was simply handsome and invincible. Chen Xiaoxi couldn't help but admire: "Why didn't I find you so handsome before?"
Zhu Hong was very happy when he heard it: "Hey, hey, hey, hey." Since you are so honest, I will also be sincere. In the past, you turned around and left after finishing your accounts, but today it is unusual, not only did you not leave, but you also asked me for a glass of wine. In addition to having something on your mind, is it possible that you have also changed your mind?"
Chen Xiaoxi stretched out his thumb and gave Zhu Hong a big thumbs up.
From time to time, beautiful hipsters come over to order wine. Zhu Hong can always deal with it calmly, he not only focuses on the wine in his hand, but also can distinguish his eyes and look at each other seriously, so that the visitor feels that he has received a different treatment. With Zhu Hong in charge, the bar business is basically guaranteed.
Chen Xiaoxi sat quietly in the corner of the bar, watching Zhu Hong mix drinks in an orderly manner and flirt without leaking a trace.
"Did you tell her something?" Zhu Hong pointed with his chin not far away. Chen Xiaoxi looked over and saw Ah Ying. She was socializing in front of a table of guests.
"What?" Chen Xiaoxi asked rhetorically, "Is there something wrong with her?"
Zhu Hong shook his head meaningfully, and then shook his head: "Others can't see anything wrong, but they can't hide my fiery eyes!"
There were regular customers coming, Zhu Hong was obviously much more enthusiastic, and let the two beauties touch his left cheek and right cheek. When he returned to Chen Xiaoxi, he saw that Chen Xiaoxi's eyes were straight.
"And with a bonus hue?" Chen Xiaoxi did not hide his surprise.
"Peer-to-peer exchange. They waited for me to get off work. You - you know - yes. ”
"I don't understand!"
Zhu Hong said that women nowadays are very casual, and if they see it, they like it, and they are likely to go to bed right now or next time. Chen Xiaoxi didn't believe it. Zhu Hong confidently said to Chen Xiaoxi: "The facts will prove my words." Aren't you dating and looking for a girlfriend? I bet 6 to 8 out of 10 people you date can uh. The rest is not good because you think they are too ugly. ”
At that time, Chen Xiaoxi had just returned to China, and he was ashamed to hear Zhu Hong's words at the class reunion, not to mention a lot of emotion. He returned to China to find his wife, are the prospective wives so indifferent?
Subsequently, it seemed to confirm Zhu Hong's words. The women of the metropolis are cheerful and capable, they are in charge of their own affairs, and they are arrogant. Since it is already half the sky, men and women are naturally equal, and in some things, it is not to mention who suffers and who makes a profit. So, have fun and have fun. Chen Xiaoxi was the one who was so frightened that he fled.
Suddenly, one day, he bumped into Zhu Beni.
At first, I didn't think Zhu Beini was anything good, but I just thought that a Chinese student Kaobo was silly and funny. After spending a little time together, he felt her simplicity and non-aggression, which made him feel more relaxed. She's a little stupid to learn languages, but stupid people are generally good-tempered. This is also reflected in Zhu Beini. Rarely does she get provoked, she filters out the complexities of the world with a simple mind, and wholeheartedly intends to review while working. Others are desperately trying to make life rich (complicated), but she is self-cutting feathers to live a simple life in a rich (complex) environment.
It's just that if you can know that it was Zhu Beini's simplicity that attracted you at the beginning, how she became more and more confused later, it was like a confused account. I don't know when it started, that kind of emotion is no longer something that can be easily expressed by the word "like".
Is it to take that little hand in the name of crossing the street?
Did you start with holding her in your arms with bloodstained hands on the streets of Wuxi?
Did it start when you went to the hotel and saw her pretending to be calm but actually panicking?
Or did it start when she climbed Luding Mountain, her slightly sweaty face was red and tempted him to "can't remember himself" and wanted to kiss?
One thing is certain, when Wuxi came back, she didn't speak all the way, and left the taxi without a sound, leaving him alone. He was terrified. Never so worried, he was worried that his demeanor was annoyed by her as frivolous. It was from that time that he, fearing that he would be disturbed by his coveted prey because of a small loss, he, a hunter, learned from the pain and wanted to change his strategy. The strategy is to wait gently!
