CHAPTER XXXI

insomnia

Ye Lin had already sunk his face in an instant before he even realized it, and strode forward.

The man sitting on the ground had already taken Ling Xiao's hand, stood up with her strength, patted the dust on his pants casually, and asked her eagerly, "Come again?" ”

The little girl gave him a blank look and dusted off the hem of her clothes angrily: "Don't come—the amount of exercise is too much, and I'm hungry." ”

-- She usually reads books seriously, or when she is not idle, her face is free and loose, but at this time, her expression is unusually vivid and hearty.

The man also seemed to feel a little upset when he heard this, so he immediately leaned over and asked her, "Then I will invite you to dinner?" ”

I want to ask her out for dinner!

"Ahem!" Ye Lin, who had already strode in front of the two of them, coughed heavily, which instantly attracted the attention of the two of them at the same time.

"Why are you here?" Ling Xiao looked up at him with a slight surprise on his face.

"Take you home." He bit the sound of the word "go home" very hard, and walked a few steps quietly as he spoke, directly between the two, blocking the little girl behind him, and reaching out to hand over a small box, "Hungry?" Bought you a cake, the kind you like. ”

Seeing that Ling Xiao couldn't wait to take the cake, and the unconcealable joy between her eyebrows made her look like she finally had a little bit of the delicate that a girl of this age should have, Ye Lin almost subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief and turned his head to look at the man opposite.

In terms of height, Nie Zheng was slightly taller than Ye Lin, which made Ye Lin subconsciously frown.

"This is ......" Nie Zheng nodded at Ye Lin, and there was also a hint of surprise and exploration in his expression.

Ling Xiao had already opened the small cake, took a spoon and took a bite, and suddenly bent his eyebrows with satisfaction, poked his head out from behind Ye Lin, and thought for a while: "It's me...... Well, parents. ”

Ye Lin's face was even darker, but Nie Zheng's eyes lit up again.

Ling Xiao seemed to know what he wanted to say, and before he could speak, he ruthlessly vetoed the question he hadn't asked yet: "He is a Sven and doesn't know martial arts. ”

Nie Zheng let out an "oh", his expression was inevitably disappointed, he thought about it and asked, "Your parents came to pick you up, are you going home?" ”

Ling Xiao saw that although he had pretended to ask casually, he was upright and not very good at hiding his feelings, and the regret and reluctance in his eyes were still unobstructed. Being looked at like this by such a tall man, Rao is Ling Xiao originally wanted to nod and say "yes", but at this time, he inevitably had a little hesitation.

"Didn't you tell me to help you find the old wood last time?" After getting along for half a year, Ye Lin also knows Ling Xiao quite well. As soon as I saw her look, my heart suddenly tightened, and without thinking about it, I grabbed the mouth before Ling Xiao responded, "I've found it, go back and say." ”

"Oh?" Ling Xiao was really interested in an instant, and immediately did not hesitate, and nodded to Nie Zheng opposite, "Then that's all for today, you should also go back to rest and digest well." ”

The man on the opposite side looked tall, and when the little girl opened her mouth at this time, he was unexpectedly obedient, and immediately nodded, but his eyes still fell on Ling Xiao by mistake.

Ling Xiao tilted his head slightly and smiled, and actually took the initiative to shake his mobile phone and made a promise: "Let's call us." ”

Nie Zheng was pleasantly surprised, Ye Lin ...... With a black face, he pulled her to turn her head and leave: "Go back, if you don't walk again, the road will be blocked." ”

However, the two of them set off a little late in the end, and the car was stuck in traffic halfway through the drive, and they didn't move a step forward for half a day.

Ling Xiao leisurely finished eating the cake, wiped his hands and cleaned up a little, and then turned his head to look at Ye Lin: "Feeling bad?" What's going on in your house again? ”

He seemed to be very irritable, and Ling Xiao had to wonder if it was something he said at home - since the unhappy break up that day, Ye Lin's mother seemed to call from time to time, but Ye Lin still never went back, and his expression after answering the phone every time was not good-looking.

Ye Lin just shook his head.

Ling Xiao didn't ask, just held his chin to look at him.

Ye Lin was a little cramped by her, but he felt a little satisfied inexplicably, coughed lightly, and asked in a calm voice: "The ...... just now Who is it? ”

"Physical Education Teacher...... Those who teach martial arts should learn one or two. Ling Xiao replied casually, and then a little distress slowly appeared on his face, and he rubbed his forehead helplessly, "Originally, I didn't want to do it, but it's a pity that this person is the same as you - too good-tempered." You good-natured people...... I've always been the most impatient. ”

She said impatiently, but there was a rare soft smile in her eyes...... I don't know if it's because of her rare softness or her sentence "This person is the same as you", Ye Lin suddenly felt a tightness in his chest for no reason, and seemed to be a little inexplicably flustered and nervous. He pursed his lips a little anxiously, but he still couldn't hold back, and he touched his chest with one free hand, and said in a muffled voice:

"Study hard, don't fall in love."

"Puppy love?" Ling Xiao seemed to be a little puzzled, touching his chin and looking up at him.

Ye Lin suddenly realized that she had been studying for most of the year, and most of them had not had time to understand these common senses, so she sighed and simply explained to her thoroughly:

"Here you can get married at the age of eighteen, and at the age of twenty for women and twenty-two for men - that's what you call marriage at that time. But now it's not blind marriage and dumb marriage, the words of the parents' order matchmaker, it's all free love - after having a good impression of each other, they will start to fall in love, and they will only get married after they are sure that both parties are suitable and their feelings are stable. ”

Ye Lin is actually not very old, and he is only a year away from graduating from college. When he was a student, his father was too demanding, he was focused on studying, and he really didn't meet any girls who made him tempted, and he didn't have a girlfriend at the age of twenty-three. At this time, explaining such a thing to a girl, the innocent Ye Ershao actually felt a little hot on his face inexplicably.

He blushed here and was embarrassed, but Ling Xiao listened to it as usual from beginning to end, and at the end he lengthened his voice and lazily said "oh", raising his eyebrows slightly: "Falling in love?" This is not bad - with understanding, if the other party is not good, just dump it, so as not to delay it for a lifetime. ”

She is free and easy, and she doesn't know which of the two of them is more like from ancient times. Ye Lin scolded sullenly, but he still couldn't help but tell again: "Don't fall in love before going to college, it's all early love, do you hear?" ”

He frowned and his face was gloomy, but he really looked like a parent who was afraid that his junior would go astray.

Ling Xiao was a little funny: "Early love? I was an adult at 15 and 16 was already a mother, so I was still in early love? ”

She was just joking casually, but unexpectedly, as soon as this sentence came out, Ye Lin's eyes seemed to darken all of a sudden, pursed her lips, and suddenly stopped talking. After a long time, the road conditions finally improved slightly, and the long convoy began to move slowly forward. Ye Lin shifted gears and moved with the team a little bit with difficulty, and finally opened his mouth again:

"It's the 21st century, a new era, and early love is not allowed before college."

The tone was stiff, and the short sentence was as if it had been smashed hard.

Ling Xiao looked up at him in surprise and blinked blankly.

……

He still has to meet his boss on Saturday, and Shi Jun doesn't have too much resistance to this. When he drove downstairs to the boss early in the morning and entered the elevator with breakfast, Shi Jun saw a little girl in a black dress enter the elevator at the same time, and then pressed the button on the fifteenth floor.

The apartments here are all two-storey apartments, and it looks like the daughter of the boss's next door? Shi Jun glanced at her a little unexpectedly, and subconsciously smiled kindly when she looked at her—to a beautiful little girl, no matter who it was, I am afraid that she would involuntarily be friendly.

The elevator stopped on the fifteenth floor, and Shi Jun turned sideways with a gentlemanly demeanor and let the girl get out of the elevator first.

So when he stood at the door of his boss's house, he was so shocked that he almost dropped the breakfast in his hand!

That little girl! Actually...... Got the key out of your pocket and then! Opened the door of his boss's house!

Shi Jun was almost a little stunned for a while, just standing at the door of the house and staring at it stupidly. Until the little girl came in the door, as if sensing something, she looked back at herself and asked:

"Are you looking for Ye Lin?"

Shi Jun nodded subconsciously.

The little girl nodded her head "oh" as usual, and said "Then you can come in", and she had already walked straight through the door.

Shi Jun's brain was still a little dizzy at this time, and he followed into the door in a daze, and then saw the little girl walk to the bedroom door, raise her hand and knock on the door:

"Ye Lin, someone is looking for you."

Shi Jun has been Ye Lin's assistant for more than a year, and he knew early on that this prince usually has a good temper, but he is a little scary when he gets up in the morning, and at this time he is simply a little frightened - and then in his heartbeat, it didn't take long for the door to be opened from the inside, and Ye Ershao walked out with a handsome face.

Shi Jun was almost ready to intercede with the little girl, but Ye Lin just glanced at the little girl, and then didn't say anything, went to the kitchen without saying a word, made a cup of coffee and hot a cup of milk and brought it out, and then took a sip of coffee and handed the milk to the little girl.

-- The movement is natural and skillful, and it is clear that it is not a whim.

Shi Jun finally came back to his senses at this time, hurriedly handed over two breakfasts, and then looked at his nose and nose, looking like he didn't know anything, and didn't say much.

- No wonder, he made a point yesterday to buy himself two breakfasts.

After eating, changing clothes, and packing up, the group of three quickly set off - it was at this time that Shi Jun finally noticed the blue and black under Ye Lin's eyes.

Stayed up late? But I haven't been busy with work lately, and I got off work early yesterday -- the assistant was a little puzzled, but he didn't ask a word in a funny way.

Ye Lin sat in the back seat of the car, his expression full of tiredness that could not be concealed.

Of course he stayed up late yesterday, and he didn't even know when he fell asleep.

Because just yesterday evening, he suddenly realized an extremely important thing - he felt that Ling Xiao was still a child, but Ling Xiao ...... It seems that it has never been thought of that way.

In her consciousness, she herself was already an adult, enough to marry or even have children.
