Chapter 024 - One Day at a Time
Although it was said that Quan Zhilong was left alone, in the end, she still couldn't stand his speed and lost patience, so she joined in. Since she suffered a leg injury, she only had to hang a pendant on the Christmas tree that had just been delivered.
She had never had the concept of Christmas, and she just took a bunch of pendants to decorate the Christmas tree and hung them on it in a mess, waiting for Quan Zhilong to spray patterns on the window and look back to see her progress, just a glance made him make a tenor sound.
"Ah——! An Youxi, what are you doing!" he jumped in front of the Christmas tree, protecting the Christmas tree behind him like a knight, with a stern expression, "You better sit quietly and don't hurt it." ”
Ahn Youxi glanced at the Christmas tree that she had almost decorated, and didn't think there was anything strange, "It's good." ”
“…… What level do you call 'pretty good'?" Quan Zhilong rolled his eyes speechlessly, "This is simply ugly, okay! Look at what you are hanging, how can this candy crutch be placed here, the stars should be placed on the top of the tree, you just hung things up, have you ever had Christmas?" ”
She threw the light bulb in her hand on the ground, turned and left.
"Nope. ”
Fortunately, the colored bulbs are of good quality, and they are still lying on the ground unharmed, shining with colorful brilliance.
Quan Zhilong resigned himself to his fate and took down the ornaments An Youxi put on one after another, "I'm not wrong, why are you angry again, woman, huh." At the same time, he didn't forget to peek in the direction where An Youxi was standing, but it was a pity that she couldn't see her face with her back to him.
However, the back is completely a second kill, Quan Zhilong commented in his heart, he is worthy of being a model, and he even pays attention to his standing posture.
Feeling a scorching gaze, An Youxi turned his face slightly, and glanced at Quan Zhilong with one eye, and someone immediately turned around and stared at the jewelry in his hand, as if it was not him who peeked just now.
Eyes...... Well, so scary......
The large floor-to-ceiling windows offer a bustling night view of Seoul, and the empty rooms are filled with only the small sound of Jeon Chi-ryong fiddling with Christmas tree ornaments. An Youxi's figure almost melted into the dim light by the window, making it impossible to see and guess.
An Youxi's reflection of the glass peeked at Quan Zhilong's every move behind him, and his side face softened a little under the warm-colored lighting, inadvertently exuding a masculine charm. After a few minutes of staring, she withdrew her gaze and lowered her eyes.
She knew that his thoughts about her had just not been pierced, perhaps because he was afraid.
If he wasn't ready to accompany her to the end, he shouldn't have broken into her life halfway. She is used to being alone, and it is difficult for her to open up to another person into her own world.
When a person who is accustomed to one person starts to have two people, it is difficult to get used to one person after that person leaves.
Quan Zhilong, you are the light of so many people, how dare she ask you to be her sun.
"Ok, Ahn You-hee, I'll leave the last step to you. Quan Zhilong clapped his hands to announce the end, turned around and called An Youxi's name.
She replied lightly, and walked slowly towards him, until she walked in front of him.
"What's the last step?"
He handed her the golden star that adorned the top of the tree, "You put this on it." He gestured to the top of the tree.
After An Youxi took it, he hesitated for a while, and joked, "You shouldn't be short enough to touch, right?" while teasing, he didn't forget to deliberately compare the height of the two.
Quan Zhilong's face suddenly turned pale, as if to prove his height, he angrily snatched the star in An Youxi's hand, and put it on the top of the tree effortlessly, and did not forget to raise his chin provocatively at An Youxi.
An Youxi spread her hands helplessly, "It's just joking, why should you take it seriously, and besides, you are crooked," she said and stretched out her long hand to touch the top of the tree, fiddling with it a few times before she stopped when she saw that the position was right.
"That's right...... Finish. ”
The noses of the two rubbed together, and the moment their skin touched, the ambiguous elements in the air jumped restlessly. Those light brown eyes are looking at themselves intently at the moment, and there are more and more * under the eyes.
"Ahn Youxi, I can kiss you... What?"
The man's voice became low and hoarse, as if he was restraining something.
His gaze went from top to bottom and finally stopped on the plump lips that glowed with a seductive sheen, and the lovely pink color made people want to take a bite.
Yes, she almost blurted out, but fortunately, the nerves called reason suddenly woke up. She bit her lower lip and took a step back, but an ordinary step seemed to close the distance between hearts. Quan Zhilong's heart continued to gush with sourness and tingling, and in order to hide this, he pretended to be indifferent and pulled the corners of his mouth.
"I was joking...... Haha, don't take it seriously, then I'll go get something else. After saying that, he quickly fled from the vicinity of An Youxi.
Ahn Youxi raised his eyes to look in the direction he had fled, not knowing what he was thinking.
The half-embarrassed atmosphere lasted until the next day, until Quan Zhilong rushed to her with a plate of decent fried eggs and asked for merit, which broke the mustard. She woke up and opened the door, and saw a happy expression of 'look at me, am I great' on the back of her, where is the embarrassment of last night.
"An Youxi, you taste. Quan Zhilong did not forget to exaggerate, "After eating, I promise that you will not want to eat other eggs, you deserve all the eggs." ”
"I haven't brushed my teeth and washed my face yet. An Youxi came back to his senses and said indifferently.
"Then you hurry up and brush your teeth and wash your face, I'll wait for you~" He winked at An Youxi, and then happily walked towards the living room with a plate and humming a little song.
……
It seems that Quan Zhilong's heart is stronger than she thought, An Youxi brushed his teeth while looking in the mirror to recall Quan Zhilong's actions just now.
Strange person, as soon as she stepped out of the bathroom after washing, she felt a strong gaze that could not be more intense fall on her. Following this line of sight, Quan Zhilong was sitting on a chair with his feet off the ground dangling in a good mood, looking at her with a smile in his eyes.
It's completely like being possessed by a primary school student.,It's childish and abnormal early in the morning.。
As soon as she sat down, Quan Zhilong diligently pushed the fried egg in front of her, and said with a smile, "Eat it while it's hot." "By the way, a glass of nutritious vegetable juice.
"I'm afraid you'll poison me. After all, Quan Zhilong used to hate himself so much, and he even set her up for the first time when he went out to eat.
Quan Zhilong: "Then you would have died a long time ago." ”
"I'll just take a bite," An Youxi took a piece and put it in his mouth and chewed it a few times, his expression changed subtly, and sure enough, he just looked good, so he didn't say much inside.
She put down the cutlery, silently picked up the vegetable juice, and squirted out the next bite, her face pale.
"Bitter, bitter gourd juice?!" she stared at the cup in her hand with her eyes wide in disbelief, and the strange taste still lingered in her mouth.
"I thought you liked it, don't you always drink vegetable juice, I think bitter gourd is quite nutritious. Quan Zhilong said that he was very aggrieved, as if An Youxi was wrong.
Her hand clenching the glass was distinctly jointed, and green tendons faintly burst out, "It's really hard--you-." She said the last few words word by word.
"Hey, Ahn You-hee, do you want to shoot my MV. Quan Zhilong suddenly came out with this sentence.
"How much?" An Youxi took a sip of water and rinsed his mouth, diluting the taste in his mouth before asking him.
Quan Zhilong had an expression of 'I know', and the smile on his lips deepened, "You are satisfied." ”
The conditions he proposed were tempting, but Ahn Youxi decisively refused.
She held her chin and said word by word, "But I'm not interested." ”
"And, although I'm just a model, I'm scheduled for next year, thank you for your kindness, I'm not short of money enough to ask you to help me. ”
"I didn't want to help you, I just cooperated for mutual benefit. Quan Zhilong said anxiously, for fear that An Youxi would really refuse.
"Trouble Jeon Zhilong Xi about work, you go to my agent Park Jun to negotiate, things at work are never my own decisions," Ahn Youxi raised an eyebrow.
Quan Zhilong: "...... I'll get in touch. ”
"I also ate eggs, juice ... I drank it too, and you can go. ”
"I'll be back in the evening. ”
"No need, I made an appointment in the afternoon. ”
Quan Zhilong's warning sounded, and his nerves tensed, "Male or female?"
Forget about women, if it's men, it's dangerous.
"Who knows~"
"Hey, An Youxi, you can't go out with men!" Quan Zhilong slapped the table and stood up, his expression not to mention how nervous he was.
"Why?"
"Because, yes, didn't you knowingly ask. ”
"Nanguina. ”
"Oh, you just said no, I'm nervous. Quan Zhilong breathed a sigh of relief.
It was only last night that she made an appointment with Nanguina, she suddenly called her in the middle of the night to ask her out, and the two didn't see each other for a while, and she hesitated on the phone just to say that she wanted to go out to catch up on the old, and she didn't know what 'old' they had to talk about, so she agreed to be bored at home.
Not long after sending Quan Zhilong away, An Youxi changed his clothes and went out.
It's just that her legs and feet are inconvenient, and she walked for a long time before she arrived at the gate of the community, stopped the car and reported her destination, so she sat quietly and rested. The driver's uncle felt familiar and looked at her a few more times, and couldn't help but ask when he was stuck in traffic.
"Are you the tina who had an affair with Quan Zhilong?"
An Youxi turned his head slightly and looked in the rearview mirror, "Hmm." ”
"Ah, I'll just say it's you, no wonder it's so familiar, I'm still very good-looking, my daughter likes Quan Zhilong a lot, so she complained at home every day during the time you had a scandal, and I remembered you when I watched too much. The driver's uncle continued to gossip, "What are you really doing?"
"Nope. ”
"That's good," the driver's uncle breathed a sigh of relief, "My daughter was still depressed at home every day some time ago, if you really talk about it, you may have to toss it into." Tell me, why do you celebrities have to be like this, no matter how you say it, the fans are raising you, and you have to consider the feelings of the fans in everything you do. Don't bother me, I'll just complain. ”
After hearing these words, An Youxi remained silent and did not say a word, just laughing at himself in his heart for a long time.
After the car arrived at its destination, An Youxi dropped a whole bill and got out of the car without waiting for change, and the shouts of the driver's uncle came from behind him.
"Hey, I haven't found the change yet. ”
She paused and smiled back, "Give it back to you." ”
"Huh?"
Ignoring the continuous shouting behind her, she entered the coffee shop without looking back. After going in and looking for a long time, I saw Nangui sitting by the window waving to her, and when she looked closer, she found the three people who were blocked by the chair just now.
Nangui patted the seat next to her, "Youxi, sit next to me." ”
Ignoring the unfamiliar salutation in her sentence, she understood what was going on as soon as she sat down.
The three women opposite, An Youxi, have also seen it, they are models of Nan Guina's current company, and they have also seen a few times in street pictorials. The three women have been chatting together in a whisper since An Youxi sat down, and their eyes were aimed at An Youxi from time to time.
After chatting, the short-haired woman couldn't help but get close to An Youxi, "You yourself look more attractive than in the photo, tina, you and Nan Guina used to be good friends, right?"
Nangui stared nervously at Ahn You-hee, the hand placed on her lap under the table clenched tightly.
She brushed the broken hair from her forehead behind her ears and smiled, "It's a good friend." ”
A soft sound of relief sounded next to him, and Ahn Youxi could think of what the expression on Nan Guina's face was like at the moment.
"So Guina was right, I thought she was lying to us," the short-haired woman said coquettishly, "I used to see that you were quite hostile, Guina, you are so lucky to be friends with Tina, you must have been taken care of a lot." ”
Nangui seemed to have found her home turf, "Tina and I are good friends who talk about everything, of course. She said confidently.
The meeting lasted for several hours to discuss career matters, and many times the finger was pointed at Ahn Youxi, but she easily defused it. After sending off the three women, Ahn Yoo-hee's smiling face instantly lost its warmth, and she shook off Nam Guina's hand that grabbed her.
"Do you have permission to use me to show off, Nanguina. ”
"Tina, think of it as the last thing you can do for me, at least help me gain a foothold in the company, and you don't have anything to lose, right? Although Nan Guina said this with confidence, she didn't dare to look at An Youxi's face from beginning to end.
She knew she would disappoint Ahn Yoo-hee by doing so, but from the moment she told the lie that 'Tina and I are good sisters who talk about everything' in her new company, she was out of control and headed in the unknown. One lie needs another lie to be rounded, one by one, and there is no way back to the beginning.
"Goodbye, Nanguina. ”
After saying this, An Youxi left without looking back. Nanguina knew that this might be the last time they would see each other.
Looking at An Youxi's figure gradually moving away, she silently said 'I'm sorry' in her heart.
