Chapter 37: Everyday Life
CHAPTER XXXIX
daily life
Ye Lin was so entangled, but Ling Xiao didn't seem to realize what was going on at all, he crossed his arms and leaned on the back of the chair, looking at him with an old look on the ground for a while, but finally it seemed that he couldn't wait any longer, and asked him:
"Ye Lin, what are you nervous about?"
What are you nervous about? Ye Lin couldn't say clearly. It's not so much that he's nervous, but that he's embarrassed at this momentβanyway, as a straight man, straight and straight, he can't be straighter, knowing that the little girl he likes likes to watch the story between men and women, his mood must be very complicated and complicated.
Especially...... This girl is not an ordinary girl, but a girl who is more handsome than most men, and a group of little girls surround her every day and call her "male god".
"Actually, it's nothing." Ye Lin thought about it for a long time, but finally he could only shake his head and decided not to express any opinion on this. After thinking about it, he still couldn't hold back, and added another sentence after a while:
"You...... Just take a look. β
Just take a look, don't try it - Ye Ershao resolutely refused to admit that this was his whimsical and unfounded worries, after all...... It's still just in case.
Ling Xiao was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then suddenly he couldn't cry or laugh. After laughing for a while, as if he suddenly remembered something, he suddenly raised his head, crossed his arms to look at him, and said with interest:
"I asked Qingqing what is the difference between attacking and receiving. Qingqing said that like her brother Shen Zhan, it is called attack; Like me, it's called a general attack; β
She said and pointed at herself, and then stretched out her hand to point at Ye Lin.
"As for ...... like you," Ling Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly as he said this, and suddenly paused, his voice a little long.
Ye Lin immediately "chuckled" in his heart, and suddenly had a bad premonition.
Sure enough, Ling Xiao spoke again immediately after: "Hmm...... Like you, it is called acceptance. β
"Ling! Sky! Ye Ershao's whole face darkened in an instant, and he almost gritted his teeth and shouted her name word by word.
"Huh?" Ling Xiao dusted off his sleeves casually, raised his head with his arms crossed, and looked at him for a long time, with a smile between his slightly raised eyebrows and eyes, as if with a little bit of cunning.
It's so good-looking...... It's not funny.
Yan Kong's Ye Ershao choked for a moment, looked away with some difficulty, turned his head and moved the dish he had just brought to Ling Xiao, and said in a deep voice angrily:
"It's time to eat!"
Seafood and sashimi are indispensable for Japanese food. While the two were talking, the waiter had already brought a large basin of sashimi platters to the table.
Even in the south, the weather is already cold in December. But the air conditioning is on, so even if you take off your coat, you feel warm, and the ice cubes at the bottom of the platter are still white mist, lined with fresh seafood on top, which looks particularly attractive.
Ling Xiao had never eaten raw food, so he was a little curious at this time, and he stretched out his chopsticks and wanted to clip them.
"Dip some sauce." Ye Lin also pushed the sauce plate forward to Ling Xiao, but for some reason, the look on his face actually seemed to be a little weak and secretly looked at her.
Ling Xiao didn't care, just responded casually, sandwiched a piece of salmon fillet, dipped it in the sauce and sent it to his mouth.
"Ahem......" As soon as the meat was in her mouth, the little girl immediately covered her mouth and coughed violently.
Ye Lin was startled, and quickly poured her a cup of tea, patting her on the back to give her relief: "Choking?" Drink some water! β
Ling Xiao seemed to have a lot of effort to swallow the large piece of salmon dipped in mustard and soy sauce with great difficulty, and quickly held the cup and poured a large sip of water, only then did he feel like he felt better, and raised his head to look at Ye Lin while continuing to drink water.
The mustard sauce was not turned off, she was defenseless, and dipped a lot at once, and she was really choked too much to eat in one bite, and she was caught off guard, at this time a fair and delicate face was already slightly red, and even the phoenix eyes lost their usual conceit, as if they were choked with tears and looked watery and foggy.
ββIt seems that she has suddenly become a soft and aggrieved little girl.
Ye Ershao was so cute that he silently covered his chest, and then felt that he had bad intentions just now and deliberately didn't remind her that the mustard was too much, and before the little girl could speak, he had already looked away from her eyes with a weak heart, and at the same time served her tea and water diligently.
Ling Xiao drank a large glass of water in a row before he finally recovered, and squinted his eyes to look at Ye Lin coldly.
It's just that her face is slightly red and her eyes are wet at this time, even if she looks like this, there is really no deterrent, Ye Lin coughed lowly, and explained softly:
"There's mustard in the sauce, be careful to choke."
As soon as he finished speaking, he couldn't wait to swallow it all back - Ling Xiao hadn't even asked, didn't he say at this time that he wanted to cover up and that there were no three hundred taels of silver here?
Ling Xiao took a deep breath and glanced at him again coldly, but he was not angry, but chuckled.
Ye Lin was a little nervous all of a sudden.
Then he saw Ling Xiao reach out and take his chopsticks, stretched out to the platter in front of him and sandwiched a piece of sashimi, then put the sashimi into the sauce, rolled back and forth, and couldn't wait to dip the whole fish in three layers of mustard sauce, and finally put the fish back and put it in his bowl, and said unhurriedly:
"Hmm...... Then you can eat it too, you're welcome. β
After a pause, she added: "Mustard tastes good, be careful to choke." β
Ye Lin followed her movements and looked at the fish in her bowl - the mustard was still not turned off, and at this time, it was almost wrapped in a thickness visible to the naked eye, and people shuddered a little when they saw it.
In fact, he is not very good at eating mustard, and every time he eats Japanese food, he just dips a little mustard to get rid of the smell.
But...... Her expression was gentle, her smile was bright, and her voice and tone of voice were softer and more gentle than ever. Ye Lin was silent for a while, but in the end he gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, and swallowed the sashimi in one gulp.
This time, Ling Xiao was a little stunned all of a sudden: "You...... What can you do? β
Ye Lin really couldn't talk at this time, he just remembered pouring water with the cup, and it took a while before he eased up in Ling Xiao's somewhat complicated gaze, and then smiled at her:
"It's me who is bad, deliberately...... Lead you to mustard. β
He choked badly, and his voice and breath were still a little unsteady when he spoke, but after thinking about it, he still couldn't hold back, and added in a low voice: "You clip me, I'll ...... Eaten. β
Her gentle appearance with a smile at that time, not to mention just mustard, even if it was really poison...... Ye Lin suspected that he would eat it in a trance.
But with such a numb word, Ye Ershao himself must not be able to say it, let alone ...... He didn't dare to say it. If you really say it, isn't that Sima Zhao's heart known to everyone? It was not easy for Ling Xiao to promise not to fall in love before college and give himself a little more time to deepen his relationship...... Ye Ershao thought of this, and suddenly vaguely realized that something was not right.
"It was me who provoked first. Are you still ......" Ling Xiao had already lowered his eyes at this time, and the complicated look in his eyes was already lowered, and he stopped abruptly in the middle of his words, and then sighed in a low voice helplessly: "I really doubt how you developed this temper." So for a good-natured person like you, I'm really ...... The most impatient to get along. β
Because it always makes her feel ...... He is simply vexatious and outrageously bad-tempered.
Although she said impatiently, her face was unusually soft, and even the eyes seemed to have a smile - not the usual somewhat arrogant smile, but a faint and soft smile.
Ye Lin also laughed all of a sudden, and sandwiched a tempura for her: "Eat this, cooked, no mustard." β
Ling Xiao shook his head a little helplessly, but lowered his head and ate the dish he brought as he said.
That night, Shen Zhan, who had just worked overtime to solve a murder case, had just returned home and had not had time to take a shower and rest, when he received a condolence call from Ye Ershao.
"Shen Zhan, I think you should care more about the child's spiritual world?" Ye Ershao connected the phone, and this is what he said.
Shen Zhan was so physically and mentally exhausted that he only replied with three words: "I don't understand." β
"Take care of your sister," Ye Ershao's face darkened, and his voice sounded a little gnashing of teeth, "Don't look at some mess." Just look at it yourself, don't bring it badly. β
Shen Zhan was silent for a while, and when he spoke again, his voice sounded a little confused: "Ye Lin, you seem to be in a good mood?" β
Ye Lin was stunned for a moment, but then he laughed all of a sudden: "Hmm...... Perhaps. β
Even he didn't notice that this elongated and noncommittal tone of voice was very similar to Ling Xiao's usual appearance.
β¦β¦
After the end of the festival, the final exams are already imminent. Whether you do well in the final exam is not only related to how well you study, but also whether you can have a good year, and even how much money you can get during the New Year. The students of No. 1 Middle School honestly put away their playfulness and began to seriously review and prepare for the exam.
Ling Xiao's grades in several subjects are quite good, except for one English course, which has always hovered around 70 points, and the scores of other main courses are not in harmony.
The final exam is coming, and on the weekend, Shen Qing pulled Ling Xiao to review together, and the location was chosen in a cafΓ© near the school, which was not too far from everyone and the transportation back and forth was convenient.
At the end of the year, Ye Lin worked an extra day during the day on Saturday, and when he got off work, he remembered that Ling Xiao was reviewing outside, and after asking the place, he simply went over to pick her up and go home for dinner.
He was very familiar with the vicinity of No. 1 Middle School, and soon found a place according to his words, and when he went in, he found that it was not only Ling Xiao and Shen Qing, but also two boys there-
The boy sitting opposite Shen Qing wore glasses and a serious face, as if he was teaching Shen Qing to do math problems. The little girl seemed a little unhappy, and complained quietly:
"If you don't want to teach me, forget it, it's rare to always keep a straight face. If Ling Xiao hadn't been free, I wouldn't have looked for you! β
The young man's face sank again, and his lips moved, as if he wanted to speak and stopped, but he still did not speak.
And the "not empty" Ling Xiao ...... At this time, she was holding a pen and listening carefully to the white boy opposite her talking about English questions. She rarely has no conceit on weekdays, serious and focused, nodding her head softly from time to time while listening, and she is as well-behaved as an ordinary little girl who humbly asks for advice.
Ye Lin stood aside and frowned slightly, and was silent for a while, but quickly adjusted his mood, stepped forward to greet a few people, and picked up Ling Xiao.
On the way home, Ye Lin coughed lightly while driving the car, and seemed to have inadvertently opened his mouth and casually said:
"It's not good to always trouble others, I'll make up English for you in the future, right?"
