Chapter 31 Chapter 31

"Xiao Xia, you are so smart, can't you see that I am courting you?"

Ningxia's eyes widened in his deep eyes. She froze and froze, and the wave of disappointment nearly overwhelmed her.

Finally regaining her senses, she quickly turned, her hands trembling to reach the handle.

She's going to get out of here, right now, right away!

The door did not open, but the body was twisted back, and Ye Zhaojue's gloomy gaze was close in front of him.

He didn't speak immediately, but stared at her with a slight brow.

"Let it go!" Ningxia stubbornly put on his face and opened his hand forcefully, and his words and actions proved it. She didn't accept the overtures he made!

"Why?" He tugged at the corners of his mouth in a slightly frustrated manner, "Give me a reason." ”

Reason......

Ning Xia smiled, his smile was cold, "Then please give me a reason first." Why are you courting me? You like me? ”

She was so straightforward, and her eyes were even more direct, obviously not believing.

How do you want her to believe it?

This man has silently kept a person in his heart for so many years, even if he has put it down, why did he suddenly fall in love with her?

Her appearance is not as good as others, her education is not as good as others, and she is not even as knowledgeable. What was it about her that attracted him?

At the end of the day, I'm still not confident.

Ningxia hates herself like this, and even with it, she hates him who brings her inferiority complex.

She bit her lip and lowered her aggressive gaze, Ye Zhaojue still held her hands on her shoulders, but her strength was a little relaxed, in fact, she could break free with just a slight movement, but she didn't.

Time is so difficult, and the glimmer of hope in my heart can't be stopped.

Admit it, Ningxia, you like him a little bit...... No, maybe more than a little......

"Natsu-chan." After a long silence, he finally spoke, "What are you afraid of?" ”

His super high acuity made Ningxia unguardable.

"Who said I was scared!" She jerked her head up, "Why are you so confident!" If you show me favor, I must like you? I sue you that I and you can't! ”

Maybe this is the gap formed by the years, she rushed to get rid of it, and he could see through it at a glance.

"Reason." His burning gaze locked on her, and he couldn't dodge for a moment.

Well, if he asks for a reason, she will give him a reason.

Ning Xia gritted his teeth and said bluntly: "Are you stupid to let a person who knows your emotional past accept you without any guilt?" ”

The "fool" seemed to be stunned, and the person fell silent again.

Ningxia is not a roundworm in his stomach, seeing him showing a wry smile, her heart immediately hurt fiercely, she shook him off with a disdainful face, opened the door, and rushed out.

The door slammed shut, Ye Zhaojue didn't chase after him, he stood in place and didn't move for a long time. He didn't return to the living room until his phone rang.

Ye Zhaohuai's naughty voice came out of the earpiece: "Brother, my mother asked me to ask you, tomorrow my sister and brother-in-law will go back to the United States, will you go to see off the plane?" ”

A sigh of annoyance was vaguely heard, and before he could answer, Ye Zhaohuai began to be silly alone, and he understood: "Little villain, when will your habit of betraying others end?" ”

Ye Zhaohuai disagreed: "It's simple, you just say no to yourself, always looking for me to be a microphone, I'm also very tired." ”

He laughed, and the older his brother grew, the more he didn't have a way.

"Hurry up, hurry up, mom is glaring at me, are you going or not going?"

On the other side of the airwaves, Yang Zhi was already speechless with anger.

"Go." He promised to come down and ordered, "It's not early, go to bed." ”

Ye Zhaohuai ordered: "Obey, sir!" He cut off the call.

All at once the world fell silent.

Over the years, he didn't go to the airport to see her off every time she traveled, but this time, he will.

***

Ningxia opened the door and ran all the way to the bedroom, Jiang Yiran came out of the study on the second floor with a cup, she passed in front of him, her shoulder rubbed against the rim of the cup, if he hadn't dodged in time, the water in the cup would have been knocked out directly.

He was about to say a few words when she turned around, and the man ran into her room, and locked the door from the inside.

He turned around outside a few times and didn't turn away, and banged on the door heavily: "If I hit me, I want to run, you come out for me!" ”

Ningxia said: "I want to sleep, where are you cool and where to stay!" ”

She lay on the bed like a dead fish, her pillow covered with cotton, and she buried as deep as she could, so that she could force back the tears that were about to break through the defenses.

Why cry, why do you feel wronged......

She gritted her teeth and snorted so hard that she wouldn't let herself be sad.

She didn't think it was worth it, not worth it at all. But he couldn't help but complain, what did he think of himself? If you can't forget it, why provoke her?

She didn't know when it was quiet outside the door, Jiang Yiran knew her so well, she must have found an abnormality and kept knocking on the door to make excuses to call her out, but how could she open the door, she didn't want him to see her hypocritical appearance, Jiang Yiran would definitely dislike her like her.

Just get some sleep.

Ningxia pressed his eyes, finished washing as quickly as possible, and silently counted sheep hypnotic in the dark.

One sheep, two sheep, three sheep......

The more you count, the more irritated you become.

He is indeed her nemesis, a nasty selfish ghost!

***

Xu Siqi secretly paid attention to Ningxia in the morning, she was extremely diligent today, not only did she take over the cranberry cookies that should have been made by him, but also rushed to make the rhubarb's coconut milk osmanthus crystal jelly.

At lunchtime, the two of them sat together.

She usually only eats one bowl of rice, but today she went to serve another bowl, and in the end, the dish was not enough, and she robbed him of the sweet and sour pork ribs on his plate.

After dinner, when he returned to the cake room, he made crepes as planned, and was about to heat the butter in the microwave, when he unceremoniously snatched it away with one hand, "I'll do it." ”

He couldn't bear it: "Ningxia, are you showing off your skills?" ”

In fact, Xu Siqi was very depressed, although she contracted their work, but her speed of making cakes was outrageous, except for the set baking time, the other steps did not look like a novice, skillful and sophisticated, methodical, and did not have the appearance of an apprentice.

It's just that she didn't see her for one night, and she left the school?

Of course it can't be!

There is only one reason that can explain one qiē, and that is that she used to be clumsy!

Rhubarb also endured it for a long time, this will find an opportunity, half suspicious and half envious: "Xiao Xia, are you secretly apprenticed, amazing!" ”

There was a big commotion here, and everyone listened with their ears open.

When the big guy was eating at noon, he heard Rhubarb talk about the morning, and they were all very curious.

Ningxia was holding butter in his hand, stared at by Xu Siqi and Rhubarb, blinked his eyes ignorantly, and said with a smile: "Do you think I have many hands and feet?" I'm sorry, but do it yourself. ”

Xu Siqi: "Count you as acquaintances!" ”

Rhubarb: "Don't......"

The two glanced at each other, and Xu Siqi's eyes showed disdain, "You want to be lazy?" ”

Rhubarb was not ashamed: "Anyway, Xiao Xia can take care of it." ”

"It's her business to take care of it, if you want to be lazy, you can't!"

"Xiaoxia didn't say anything, what kind of mouth do you have!"

Seeing that the two of them were pinched, Ningxia hurriedly stepped forward to persuade them, but before he could say a word, Jin Zhiliang roared over: "No matter how noisy it is, get me home!" ”

Xu Siqi and Rhubarb glared at each other, stirring the batter and stirring the batter, and taking the butter with butter.

The butter in his hand was taken back by Xu Siqi, and Ningxia didn't know what he should do next for a while.

Jin Zhiliang's meaningful eyes fell on the top of her head, "Xiao Xia, I have been letting you be responsible for wronging you all along. ”

Ningxia was startled and shook his head hurriedly: "Don't be aggrieved." Brother Liang, you are too serious. ”

couldn't find a chance to get close to Xu Zhengze to learn things, she would rather follow behind and touch the fish.

Jin Zhiliang didn't seem to believe it, "Don't be wronged, then how can you explain your behavior today?" ”

Well...... Just trying to do more to distract yourself. However, this is a private word, and it is difficult to say.

Looking at the meaning in his eyes, it seems that he has misunderstood. He wouldn't think she was protesting with her personal abilities, would he?

Ningxia's heart hung up.

Jin Zhiliang did mistakenly think that this was Ningxia's trickery, in order to attract his attention and gain attention.

If it was someone else, he would have sneered and criticized it a long time ago, but this person was Ningxia, he saved face for her, and he was surprised and relieved at the same time for her talent. Since Ningxia is anxious to get out of the position, then he will sell his favor to fulfill her.

"From today onwards, it's up to you to make the doughnuts and bagels every day."

"Huh?"

"Why, won't?"

"It's not ......" is simple.

"Then it's all up to you for now."

“…… Oh good. ”

Should she say thank you? However, she really prefers to play the trick......

Jin Zhiliang looked at her, as if he was waiting for something.

Ningxia smiled and said, "Thank you, Brother Liang." ”

"Hmm." Jin Zhiliang closed his eyes slightly, turned around and left.

"......" was really waiting for her to thank her......

Ningxia heard him say to another section as he walked: "Lao Zhao, you don't have to make doughnuts and bagels in the future." ”

Lao Zhao responded: "Got it, Brother Liang." ”

Xu Siqi came back with the melted butter, glanced at her, and reluctantly said, "Eh, congratulations." ”

Ningxia smiled, not a little gratifying.

Xu Siqi couldn't help but be annoyed: "Obviously, I was so happy in my heart, but I pretended to be unwilling on my face." Hey, can you please stop being so fake? ”

Ningxia is truly wronged.

She stared at her and said, "Xu Siqi, are you a pig?" ”

Then, go get the butter.

Xu Siqi was even more resentful when she was scolded back, thanks to his kindness to argue with Rhubarb for her, she is a pig, she is idle and has nothing to do, and she is tired of being cheap to others!

***

Aerodrome.

Lu Lin'an and Shang Ce stood side by side, and the luggage had been checked.

The parents of both families are there, and there are also Lu Linan's two friends, and even Ye Xiaofan also came.

The two went back this time, and they didn't know when they would see each other again, perhaps after Lu Lin'an graduated at the latest.

Yang Zhi was reluctant to give up her daughter, and desperately wanted to get protection from her, "You said that you will return to China after graduation, but you are not allowed to lie to me." ”

Lu Lin'an and Shang Ce glanced at each other tacitly, stepped forward to hug their mother with a smile, and said playfully: "I will definitely come back, and I will come back for the sake of the smog of the motherland." ”

The stone in Yang Zhi's heart fell. Forgive her for her selfishness, although Shang Ce's career is in the United States, she doesn't want her daughter to stay abroad for the rest of her life.

Shang's mother, a career-oriented woman with a quick mind, said with a smile: "Shang Ce will shift his focus to China next year, and he will create and take charge of the firm's studio in China." ”

"Really?" Yang Zhi raised his eyes in surprise and looked at Shang Ce.

This tall man has always been polite in front of his elders, and he nodded: "There is a plan." ”

Yang Zhi stroked her daughter's long hair, happy and emotional. I went abroad for Lin'an back then, and now I am afraid that a large part of my return to China is still for her.

With such a son-in-law, she is satisfied and content. But when you think of the people behind you......

Yang Zhi sighed in her heart, seeing that he had been single all these years, she was the most uncomfortable.

A while ago, I finally agreed to meet the girl she was looking for for him, and I was satisfied with his tone, but the girl turned to pick on him. She was embarrassed to tell him that she was afraid of hurting the child's self-esteem, so she had to cover it up and say that Huihui was busy with work and had no time to make another appointment for the time being.

But how smart he was, when she said this, she was still hurt. She said to introduce him to other girls, refusing to nod her head again.

The magnetic field generated by Yang Zhiwu's self-injury failed to affect Ye Zhaojue behind him.

After the meeting, he drove over by himself, wearing a suit and leather shoes, and his extravagance was compelling, which made Lu Linan feel more and more unfamiliar.

The young man of that year seemed to be just yesterday, but the person in front of him had transformed into an unattainable talent.

When it was time to board the plane, he said goodbye to his relatives and friends one by one, and when it was his turn, he didn't know what to say or what to do.

She pursed her lips and smiled, standing stiffly, "I don't have time to talk to you when I come back this time, and I haven't told you a sentence ......"

She froze and stiffened.

Because, suddenly, he hugged her.

"I know what you're going to say." The corners of his lips curled up under everyone's different gazes, "You don't need to thank me, I'm your brother, and it's my job to prepare an engagement banquet for my sister." ”

For the first time, he never called himself an older brother. It's like he never comes to the airport to see her off, and that's the first time.

Lu Lin'an soothed her breathing, and she realized a little happily that something seemed to be different. Don't they have to hide from each other anymore?

He didn't let go of her immediately, but leaned into her ear, low, as if he was giving her an explanation, and also giving himself an explanation, "Xiaoba, I won't wait for you anymore." ”

After finishing speaking, he simply stepped back neatly.

He looked at her, smiling sincerely, as warm as back then, "Bless you." ”

Lu Linan suddenly felt the urge to cry.

In the summer of his freshman year, in his car, knowing that she and Shang Ce were already dating, he said: I'll wait for you. Although she did not refuse directly, her attitude was very clear, and she remembered his pale face at that time, which made her ashamed.

How could he really wait for her for so many years......

A hard chest leaned up behind her back, and Shang Ce grabbed her shoulders and responded in place of her speechless: "Bless you too." ”

Ye Zhaojue copied his trousers, but his rigorous dress was uninhibited, he shrugged his shoulders lightly, smiled and accepted it calmly.

At this moment, facing them who were dependent on each other, he remembered Ningxia.

"Aren't you stupid to let someone who knows your emotional past accept you without any guilt?"

Silly girl, I don't want to leave myself in the world of the past, which is so lonely, so lonely that you have to wait alone for so many years when you meet you.
