Chapter Ninety-Nine: Hope and Expectation; fear
Zheng Xiujing took Li Yiming to a shrimp shop. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The store is not big, it seems to be a small shop opened by the family itself, the girl is obviously a regular customer here, and as soon as she pulled Li Yiming into the door, the proprietress standing at the counter greeted her with a smile.
"Xiujing hasn't been here for a long time." The proprietress looked at Li Yiming, "Bah, this is... Boyfriend? ”
"Auntie, you..." Zheng Xiujing wanted to speak and stopped, pursed her lips to hide her embarrassment, but did not refute, but grabbed Li Yiming's arm and said to the proprietress: "How is it, is it a good match?" ”
When she said this, she raised one foot slightly, and her whole weight was leaning on Li Yiming's body, which was really cute.
"Match, match!" The proprietress hurriedly said, and then glanced at Li Yiming, "Oops... Our Xiujing's boyfriend is so handsome! It's so high, I'm afraid you'll poke the ceiling of my store down... Oh Mo. ”
She fixed her eyes and confirmed it a few more times, and then said, "Oh Mo! Isn't this that Li Yamingxi! ”
Because Li Yiming's name is in Chinese, he is somewhat awkward in the language habits of Koreans.
"What Li Yaming." The boss walked out and patted her on the shoulder, "It's Li Yimingxi, what... NBA basketball stars! That's amazing! ”
He also greeted Xiujing, and didn't forget to joke when he was done: "We Xiujing don't look for a boyfriend, forget it, this one... Alas! I've really found a big guy! ”
The status of athletes in South Korea is very high, not to mention that basketball is really a short board for Korean sports, Li Yiming because he is half of Korean blood, so under the hype of the media, the title of "Hero of Basketball in the Republic of Korea" has been on the news for many times.
Seeing that Zheng Xiujing was very familiar with them, Li Yiming also smiled and nodded to them, although he did not bow, he also bowed slightly.
After a while of greetings, the two sat down.
"I've been frequenting this shop since I was a kid." Zheng Xiujing took the initiative to explain: "When my sister was a trainee, she brought me here to eat shrimp, and the boss has always been very good to us, so I have always been very familiar with us." ”
Li Yiming nodded with a smile and looked around, it was not big, it was very clean, and the layout was also very warm. At the moment, because the meal has passed, there are no other customers except them.
"That's how you grew up..."Following Zheng Xiujing to many places full of her memories, Li Yiming couldn't help but sigh. I can even imagine her little one many years ago, stopping in different places as time goes by, and finally growing up quietly while eating different meals.
The girl poked him in the head, "Or else." ”
Li Yiming thought about it for a while, "I thought it was like in a fairy tale, a seed was planted in the soil, and then it was watered and fertilized, and after more than ten years, a beautiful woman suddenly popped up." ”
Listening to his nonsense, Zheng Xiujing giggled, "What kind of fairy tale are you, why have I never seen it." ”
"I forgot, there is such a fairy tale anyway!" Li Yiming pursed his lips with a serious face.
Zheng Xiujing glanced at him, and her eyes sparkled, revealing a charming style that was both mature and pure.
Li Yiming leaned on the table, his hand propped his head, and looked at the girl in front of him intently for a while, if it wasn't for the other party's gaze to dodge, maybe he would have to keep looking.
"Why do you keep looking at me?" Zheng Xiujing raised her little fist at him, puffing out her cheeks not like a threat, but more like selling cuteness.
"Of course, I look at it because it's good-looking." Li Yiming pursed his lips, stretched out his other hand to pull some of her disobedient hair to her ears again, and gently stroked her fair and delicate little face with his wide palm.
He's too tall, so as long as he leans against the table, he'll be very close to the person opposite, which is easy to do.
The girl's eyelashes trembled, and she didn't dodge, but her ears quietly turned red again. Although her face is facing Li Yiming, who is close at hand, her eyelids are drooping, and her low eyebrows are unbelievably beautiful, like a marble statue from ancient Rome, but no matter how perfect a stone statue is, it is impossible to be so lifelike.
"Have you seen enough?" She didn't know how long it had been, but she only felt that the gaze that was staring at her was still burning, making her almost ignite, and then she raised her gaze. There was not a hint of impatience, and the pitiful tone was more like a pleading.
She never knew how beautiful she looked when she bit her lip and was coquettish, so Li Yiming couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth again.
"Nope." He didn't plan to tell her about it, but wanted to imprint this expression deeply into his mind, Li Yiming began to regret why he had never learned to paint, otherwise with every image of this girl that he remembered in his mind, as long as it was transferred to the picture quality, he could become a character like Leonardo da Vinci that went down in history.
"It's good to be able to take pictures..."Li Yiming couldn't help muttering to himself.
"What?" He forgot to be close to Zheng Xiujing, so he was listened to by this girl, and asked with a puzzled face, "What will take pictures?" What do you know about taking pictures? ”
"Nothing." Li Yiming smiled at her, then withdrew the hand that caressed the girl's cheek, and followed his left hand to support his head, "Bring less contact lenses in the future." ”
"Why?" Zheng Xiujing tilted her head, "Doesn't OPPA like it very much?" ”
"Like is like." Li Yiming also learned from her to wrinkle her nose, "But it shouldn't be good for your eyes after wearing it for a long time." ”
"Okay, then in addition to styling needs in the future, take it off as soon as possible after wearing it!" The girl nodded obediently, pursing her lips as if to say, "Look how well-behaved I am." ”
"It's so good..."Li Yiming's eyes were almost gone, "You can wear it to me occasionally, but you have to take it off immediately when you get home." ”
"Selfish ghosts." Zheng Xiujing muttered, "It's really just a rhetoric if it's not good for your eyes, it must be again..."
"That's right." Li Yiming raised his head, "I don't want others to see our Xiujing's beautiful appearance, what's wrong?" ”
"Hmph." The girl glanced at him, but her cheekbones couldn't be lowered.
"What a stingy and domineering person."
"It's selfish." Li Yiming took the initiative to help her add.
"Yes!" Zheng Xiujing nodded in agreement and continued to say in Li Yiming's ear: "I'm still very and likes to be serious." ”
The exhaled breath was warm, and Li Yiming felt that the roots of his ears were very itchy, and he couldn't help but shrink his neck.
Not to be outdone, he also put his mouth next to her ear, and even put his two hands together to wrap the gap.
"Yes......" He only said one word, but his breath was very long, just to deliberately let the girl feel the itching feeling to the bottom of her heart.
"Hmm..." The girl really felt that she couldn't stand it, so she shrunk her neck and hurriedly pushed Li Yiming's head away.
Li Yiming looked at her and found that the girl's face was red again.
"Why is your face red again?" He couldn't laugh or cry.
"It's not all you!"
"You did it first!"
"Humph!" Zheng Xiujing pouted, turned around and said behind her: "Boss, why is the shrimp and crab pot not good yet." ”
"Okay, okay!" The voice of the proprietress came immediately, and in a moment a large pot of things came up, and when the lid was lifted, a burst of aroma made people appetize.
"It's all cooked!" Zheng Xiujing was a little surprised.
The proprietress glanced at the two of them, "It's not that I saw the two of you flirting here, it's not easy to disturb, so I cooked it for you in the kitchen first." ”
Zheng Xiujing's face turned even redder when she heard this, and she bowed her head to thank her to hide her embarrassment, "Thank you, boss." ”
Thank you hostess. Li Yiming also said with a smile.
"Here, taste." The girl clipped a crayfish to Li Yiming.
Li Yiming didn't answer, and put his open mouth up.
"Really..."Zheng Xiujing's tone was very helpless, but she also obediently fed him to her mouth.
"Wow!" Li Yiming's expression became very exaggerated, his eyes widened and even his mouth was rounded, "It's delicious!" ”
He even gave the girl a thumbs up.
"How can it not be delicious." The girl glanced at him, took one of her own and put it in her mouth, and said while puffing out her cheeks and chewing, "I fed you this." ”
"Nope." Li Yiming looked at her innocently, "It's just that it's really delicious." ”
The girl looked at him indignantly, did not speak again, and concentrated on dealing with the food in front of her, moving quickly, obviously quite hungry after being busy.
Li Yiming saw it in his eyes, and didn't say anything more, just smiled, and kept putting the dishes into the bowl for her.
There was silence for a while, but it was not embarrassing at all, and the two of them, who were eating without saying a word face to face, looked very harmonious and warm.
After a bowl of rice, Zheng Xiujing's movements slowed down slightly, and her mouth finally took out the time to speak.
"That's right."
Li Yiming looked up at her.
"What is OPPA doing in Gyeonggi Province today?"
Li Yiming thought for a while, and then said honestly: "I went to the MBC building." Without waiting for the girl to ask again, he took the initiative to say: "A friend of mine participated in "My Knot", and I was invited to visit her wedding room. ”
I didn't dare to say that I took the initiative to ask to go, but I was afraid that the girl would be unhappy.
Zheng Xiujing thought only for a while, and then asked, "It's Girl's.Day's Yarong Xi, right?" ”
"Yes." Li Yiming nodded, looking at her with some apprehension.
"Oh..."Zheng Xiujing responded to express her understanding, "Yarong Xi has been caught in the loophole since he finished the show with oppa, oppa, you go to the broadcast to show your relationship, and solve the misunderstanding, otherwise how pitiful she should be, it is obviously a nonsensical thing, but she was deliberately smeared by good deeds, and she will be greeted by anything excessive." ”
Seeing that she was not only not jealous, but for the sake of Jin Yarong, Li Yiming secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time, he also inexplicably had a kind of happy joy.
Are you glad you can be with such a girl?
After such a thought flashed through his mind, Li Yiming just smiled and said, "Yes, that's why I just thought about this, so I went." ”
"OPPA did the right thing." Zheng Xiujing praised, and her sweet smile didn't seem to be fake.
Before Li Yiming could say anything, she said again: "But except for such special circumstances, OPPA will still have fewer variety shows in the future." ”
She told her as usual, "I don't say that OPPA is also doing it seriously, but I still hope that OPPA will focus on basketball as much as possible." ”
Li Yiming smiled and nodded, and the gloom that flashed in his eyes did not attract the girl's attention.
"OPPA will definitely think I'm verbose, but I'm really afraid that OPPA will be distracted by these inconsequential things - the new season is about to start, and it's the first time Oppa has returned to the field since his injury, so it would be sad if something went wrong." Zheng Xiujing's eyes were like torches, and the expectation in her eyes was obvious.
"So it's good to spend a little more time on basketball and get back to better shape, even if it's just a little bit." The girl put her hand in front of her eyes and gestured, and the appearance of squeezing her eyebrows made Li Yiming laugh.
"What's so funny." She pouted and pushed Li Yiming's shoulder, "I'm serious, oppa, don't let me down." ”
"yes, I know." Li Yiming smiled brightly and bowed his head.
She held out her hand again, "Here, pull the hook." ”
Li Yiming was stunned, but she pulled her hand over and hooked it with her little thumb.
"Okay, let's pull the hook, oppa must perform well when he returns to the NBA, and beat those old opponents to the ground!" She was more combative than the person concerned, and waved her fist and said, "Win another championship!" ”
"Another championship?" Li Yiming muttered, his eyes blooming with brilliance, and quickly dimmed.
"Okay...", he still chose to smile at the girl, no matter how far-fetched the smile was, "Okay, another championship." ”
"We're done!"
"It's settled."
"OPPA, come on!!"
"Uh-huh, come on."
"OPPA won't let me down, will it?" Zheng Xiujing looked at him, her eyes full of longing and hope.
"I ......" Li Yiming hesitated.
I was sitting on the chair well, but I felt that the whole person was falling down, as if I was going to sink into the ground. He clearly saw a beautiful girl, a delicious shrimp and crab pot, and a cozy little shop in front of him, but it seemed that everything had disappeared, and it was pitch black in front of him.
The thoughts that had been lingering in his heart came out again.
The maggots of the tarsal bones, like poisonous snakes, will not only not disappear, but will only grow stronger with the accumulation of time.
That thought is called fear.
"Thank you, hostess." Li Yiming also said with a smile.
