--I shy hope to see you more, but I am happy because you look at me more.

Probably, this is called a crush.

***

It was already early in the morning when Zhong Ling got home, and she opened the door tiredly and didn't even want to change her shoes.

When she entered the bathroom, she turned on the shower head, and somehow, suddenly, the water sprayed out, which startled Zhong Ling.

The water is getting bigger and bigger, and she can't turn it off, Zhong Ling's whole body is drenched, she wants to find tools, but as soon as she stepped out of the bathtub, her feet slipped and she fell the bathroom tiles.

This fall was not light, a sharp pain immediately came from the ankle, she lay on the ground and tried a few times, as long as she used force, the ankle hurt her heart.

Finally standing up with the handle of the bathtub, Zhong Ling limped out of the bathroom and closed the door. She went to the bedroom to change her clothes and quickly found her phone.

It's already early in the morning, and it's impossible for a master to come to repair it so late, and the mobile phone address book is rummaged around, and the only one who can find help seems to be him.

After Mao Dong came back from other places, they never met, and the two of them knew each other what Zhong Ling told him last time about the transfer of North Star shares.

The water in the bathroom gradually began to pour out the door, Zhong Ling didn't dare to hesitate any longer, so she had to dial Mao Dong's phone.

***

Mao Dong's place of residence is some distance away from Zhong Ling's house, and when he arrived, Zhong Ling's house was almost flooded.

"You're here!" When she opened the door and saw him, her heart fell back to its place.

Mao Dong looked like he had just woken up, his eyes were a little less sharp, and his whole person was not as strict as during the day.

He wore a gray casual shirt, saw her standing limp in the doorway, lowered his eyebrows and said, "You go and sit down, I'll fix it." ”

The small living room was crowded because of his entry.

Mao Dong took off his coat and took the tools, and went directly into the bathroom, Zhong Ling's feet were inconvenient, in order not to add unnecessary trouble to him, she just stood outside the bathroom door and looked at him all the time.

Under the soft white light, he sat on the edge of the small bathtub, his slender legs could only be half-bent in the bathtub because of the space, and he raised his arms to repair the broken rain shower for her.

How could Zhong Ling not feel it at all.

The shower was finally repaired, and when Mao Dong came out, his whole body was almost drenched.

"You tap it when you twist the switch later, it's too old and needs to be replaced."

Zhong Ling took the tool in his hand, saw that he was soaking wet, and said busily: "You... Otherwise, you go take a shower first, and I'll wash your clothes, or you'll catch a cold. ”

Out of summer, I felt particularly cool at night, but fortunately Mao Dong wore a coat when he came, Zhong Ling thought about washing his clothes out and then drying them in the washing machine, so that the clothes could dry faster.

Looking at her inconvenient legs, Mao Dong wiped his face and refused. "Just give me a towel, I've got clothes in the car."

"Shall I bring it for you, then?"

"I'm more worried about you going down like this, so give me a towel."

The T-shirt on Mao Dong's body was already soaked, sticking to his body, showing his slightly strong muscles. Zhong Ling went to get a towel, and he sat on the sofa in the living room and wiped his head casually. When he went down to change clothes, Zhong Ling limped and jumped into the kitchen to make some ginger tea.

When he came back again, Mao Dong changed into a set of white sportswear and carried a bag of food in his hand.

"I bought it in Guangzhou."

She loves Southern desserts, and he knows it.

The two of them sat on the sofa, Zhong Ling poured him a cup of ginger tea, and the windows were closed, and there was a trace of coolness.

"Is business going well over there?" Zhong Ling asked.

"Okay."

The ginger tea is hot, and a thin layer of minced ginger is precipitated in the white porcelain cup, Zhong Ling likes to do housework, especially cooking, and is very good at cooking.

Mao Dong took a big sip of tea, the ginger was slightly spicy in the mouth, but it was warm in the stomach.

Zhong Ling held the teacup in her hand, she gently rubbed the mouth of the cup, and the two of them didn't speak for a while, and they both quieted down.

"Do your feet matter?" At some point, Mao Dong had shifted his attention to her feet.

Seeing Mao Dong looking at his feet, Zhong Ling shook his head slightly, "I'll rub it with alcohol later." ”

"Where's the alcohol?"

Zhong Ling pointed to the storage cabinet in the living room.

Mao Dong opened the drawer and took out the medicinal wine, Zhong Ling hurriedly said, "I can do it myself." ”

"If you don't rub the blood hard and can't rub it open, I'll do it."

He half-crouched on the ground, poured alcohol into the palm of his hand, and pointed to his leg, motioning for her to put her foot on his.

Zhong Ling was a little embarrassed and shrunk her feet, "Forget it, you just came back from a business trip, so let's go back and rest early." ”

"If you refuse, I won't have time to sleep tonight."

Zhong Ling hesitated for a few seconds, and finally raised her foot.

His feet rested lightly on his legs, his warm hand grasping her slender ankle, and the other hand, rubbing it against the injured area with the right amount of force.

"Shhh

Zhong Ling couldn't hold back the pain and shouted softly, Mao Dong lowered his head, and his movements still didn't stop, "Bear with me first, just for a while." ”

Under the light, his hair was not completely dry, and it was slightly soft and attached to his forehead, blocking his sharp eyebrows.

Zhong Ling's attention gradually shifted from the pain in his feet to Mao Dong, who was holding his ankles, and seeing his lowered eyebrows and concentrated eyes, the pain seemed to have been reduced a lot.

He always gently pushed her when she wanted to back off, so that she couldn't give up that infatuation.

"Someone came to North Star today to inquire about you."

"Together?" Mao Dong asked naturally.

"It's not."

Mao Dong poured some alcohol into his hand again, and his slightly rough palm warmly held her ankle.

"It's a little girl, ask me, do you have a girlfriend?"

Clearly, she felt his hand rubbing her ankle and paused for half a second.

He half-lowered his eyes and did not speak again.

"Do you know who she is?" Zhong Ling asked tentatively.

How could he not have guessed who it was? Except for that little girl, who can be so bold and chase him so closely.

Thinking of this, he chuckled.

In the quiet room, this laughter instantly aroused ripples in Zhong Ling's heart.

She bit her lip lightly, feeling something strange in her heart.

The room was quiet again, save for the sound of alcohol bottles being picked up and put down.

Zhong Ling looked into his lowered eyes. His eyelashes were black, long, and thick.

Zhong Ling asked, "She likes you?" ”

Mao Dong was silent.

Zhong Ling: "What do you think?" ”

Suddenly, she asked, "... Will you get married? ”

Closing the lid of the alcohol bottle, Mao Dong carefully put Zhong Ling's feet back on the slippers on the ground.

He wiped his palms with a tissue and replied, "Everyone will get married, sooner or later, including you." ”

"But I'll only marry someone I like, and... Recognize one for the rest of your life. ”

Used tissues were thrown into the trash can next to the coffee table, and Mao Dong picked up the car keys on the table.

He stood up, much taller than she was sitting on the couch.

"In the past few days, you have to recuperate at home first, and I'll find someone to watch it for you over there."

"Mao Dong!" She called out to him softly, and this voice had a deep meaning.

Mao Dong didn't look at her all the time, just telling her to be careful at home these days.

Seeing that he was leaving, Zhong Ling hurriedly got up, "I'll send you." ”

"No need." Before opening the door and leaving, he turned to her and said, "Get some rest." ”

The door was shut, and the room was left with herself.

The room smelled of alcohol, and the warmth on my ankles hadn't gone away.

Zhong Ling sat back on the sofa and looked at the cup he had just drunk.

The hand slowly touched the cup, and half of the ginger tea was already cold, but the edge of the cup seemed to still have the temperature he had just used.

***

Although the goal is certain, Liang Ju also knows that she can't chase after her, so for Mao Dong, she plans to delay it for two days.

When the day of returning to school came, Liang Ju took his luggage back to school to report, and when he entered the dormitory, he saw Lan Lan cleaning up the bed alone.

Their dormitory was originally lived by four people, and a classmate suddenly suspended school last year, some people said that it was because he was looking for a boyfriend outside and was pregnant, so he had to suspend his studies, but some said that it was because he couldn't hook the teacher, but he was sued by his wife to the principal of the school, and he was punished.

"Lan Lan, you're back so early!" Liang Ju dragged his luggage, and saw that there were a lot of finished snack bags on Lan Lan's table, which were discarded there, as if he had been back for many days.

"I, my sister, I'm not used to living, so I'll come back early." Lan Lan saw Liang Ju come in and quickly packed up the things in her hand, "How are you doing this summer vacation?" ”

"It's okay, the vacation is only a few days, it's not fun at all."

"We have fewer classes this semester, and some of them are your time to play, by the way, have you found an internship unit?"

"No, what are you doing in such a hurry?" Liang Ju lay on his back on the bed, only raising his head, "By the way, did you see Jiejie, hasn't she come back yet?" ”

"I went to the school grocery store to buy food."

In the evening, Lan Lan went out, and Liang Ju and Yu Yanjie were huddled on the same bed.

She reported the battle situation between herself and Mao Dong to Yu Yanjie, Yu Yanjie lay there and took a bite of Sydney, thought for a while, and said: "The organization supports your behavior, you should rush boldly!" ”

"However, I didn't expect that the woman who helped me last time was actually the boss of North Star."

"Then the boss lady in their mouths is her?"

"I guess so."

"Did you ask Mao Dong, does he have a girlfriend?"

"How can I ask now, I just said to pay back the money, and I didn't say anything about it at all."

Liang Ju snatched the pear from Yu Yanjie's hand and took a bite. "You say, he has a girlfriend, should I give up?"

"Are you sure that woman is his girlfriend?"

Liang Ju shook his head, and Yu Yanjie sighed.

"At the critical moment, you are also quite cowardly."

"Get out." Liang Ju pushed Yu Yanjie, "Then you give me an idea." ”

Throwing the pear beard into the trash can accurately, Yu Yanjie got up and wiped her hands, "I'll go to him after class tomorrow, either you ask clearly, or you will find a way to go to Beixing to investigate by yourself." ”

"Into the North Star?!"

"Didn't Shar Pei complain to you a few days ago that it was difficult to find a bar host, then you went to apply, so that there would be more opportunities for you two to meet?"

Liang Ju grunted and sat up from the bed.

Entering the North Star, why did she never think about it?

Like an initiation, Liang Ju snapped his fingers, held Yu Yanjie's face and kissed it big, "You're still smart!" ”

Yu Yanjie pushed her paws away in disgust and glanced at Lan Lan's bed, "Why did Lan Lan come back so early?" ”

"She said she wasn't used to living at her sister's house."

"Her sister's house? Didn't she say that she went to a friend's house during the summer vacation? ”

Liang Ju was concentrating on how to get into the North Star, and he didn't care about Yanjie's problem. "I don't know, she said it herself."

***

The next day, Liang Ju happened to have no classes in the afternoon, she ran to her cousin's community after lunch, worried that her cousin would see it, so she went to her cousin's house to call, but no one answered, so she changed her clothes and took the bus.

Mao Dong's Toyota car was still parked downstairs at his house, and Liang Ju walked over and found that there were actually people inside.

After tidying up her clothes and hairstyle, Liang Ju knocked on the car window, thinking it would be Mao Dong, so when the window was rolled down to reveal the person in the driver's seat, she kept a smiling expression.

"Why are you, why are you here?" Ah Yuan took off his sunglasses and looked Liang Ju up and down, looking very surprised.

"My cousin lives here, of course I'm here." Liang Ju probed into the car, didn't see Mao Dong, thought for a while, and left in a huff.

"Are you looking for Brother Dong?" A-Yuan opened the car door and got out of the car. Seeing that Liang Ju turned to look at him, he pointed to it, "Brother Dong is packing his luggage on it and will come down in a while." ”

"You're going on a business trip again?" Looking at Ah Yuan, who was dressed casually, Liang Ju remembered that she seemed to have caught a glimpse of a black travel bag in the back seat of the car just now.

"What do you mean, you seem to be quite familiar with Brother Dong's whereabouts." Yuan slipped his hand into his pants pocket.

Liang Ju didn't bother to pay attention to him, and turned his head to see Mao Dong, who was wearing a black short-sleeved shirt, walking out of the building with his luggage.

Under the sun, he was slender, wearing sunglasses and dressing casually, and he also wore a watch on his wrist, his exposed arm muscles were tight, and in Liang Ju's eyes, he only felt that he was exuding strong male hormones.

Today, Mao Dong's body is simply too cool, especially wearing that pair of sunglasses, so handsome that Liang Ju can't wait to pounce on him immediately.

As soon as she saw him, she became a nymphomaniac.

Seeing Liang Ju, Mao Dong was very surprised, but his sunglasses blocked his gaze, and he couldn't see through his feelings.

Ah Yuan put Mao Dong's luggage into the car, and Mao Dong saw that Liang Ju didn't mean to say hello, so he opened the car door coldly and prepared to get in the car.

"Wait a minute!" Liang Ju suddenly shouted.

Ah Yuan smiled at Liang Ju and sat back in the driver's seat as if evaded.

Mao Dong closed the car door and stood where he was, waiting for her.

"Something?" He asked.

Yu Yanjie said before that she was cowardly, and she Liang Ju had never been cowardly, so she raised her face and looked into his eyes under the sunglasses, and asked, "How many times can I give you that money?" ”

"Whatever."

"I don't have that much money now, can I go to your place and work?"

Liang Ju clearly heard a sullen laugh from Ah Yuan in the car, she ignored his storage zài, and only waited for Mao Dong's answer.

Mao Dong was stunned for half a second and said, "Whatever, as long as you can get through the interview." ”

"Okay, that's it!" Glancing at Ah Yuan, who was peeking at the two of them, Liang Ju looked at Mao Dong and raised his chin, "You just wait for me to enter the North Star!" ”

After that, she turned around and left very handsomely, but left the confused Mao Dong in place.

***

The car was driving on the highway, Mao Dong was sitting in the co-pilot's seat and pretending to sleep, and Ah Yuan gently hit his fingers on the steering wheel with the beat of the music.

"What are you so happy about?" Mao Dong asked with his eyes closed.

"It's okay, it's just pure fun."

Mao Dong moved his body and gathered the clothes on his body, "Sue Sù Shapi, don't talk about everything, that kid is usually headless and brainless, you have to remind him." ”

Ah Yuan chewed gum and nodded, "Okay!" ”

"Also, tell Zhong Ling, don't let that girl in just now."

"You said you wouldn't let her get through the interview?"

Mao Dong acquiesced.

"Brother, do you think she can really go to North Star for an interview?"

Mao Dong looked at the trees and tall buildings that flashed quickly outside the window, and said in an unclear tone: "She really doesn't have to." ”

Ah Yuan smiled and glanced at Mao Dong, "Brother, she seems to be interesting to you?" ”

Mao Dong glanced at him, and Ah Yuan laughed directly.
