Chapter 172: Welcome
Gong Xiping was only halfway through his cigarette when he heard the doorbell ring. To be honest, this is the first time Gong Xiping has heard his own doorbell. It is not an exaggeration to say that this is the first time that Gong Xiping knows that he still has a doorbell here!
When I walked to the door and opened the door, I saw 4 top beauties with their own characteristics standing outside. Moreover, Gong Xiping could see at a glance that they all seemed to have painted a little light makeup. Xi Yuling even took off the heavy glasses that were on the bridge of his nose.
"Uh......" Gong Xiping was speechless at this time. He scratched his head before saying, "Welcome......"
His words immediately drew a burst of laughter from all the women. For a while, the warbler Yanyan was so lively. If it weren't for the northwest wind blowing outside, it would really be thought that spring had arrived.
Gong Xiping made a gesture of please, and then walked in first. The other women followed.
As soon as they walked in, everyone's eyes lit up. is completely different from what they imagined, Gong Xiping's home is not only neat and bright, but also very neat, not at all like a boy who lives alone.
"Uh...... Sit as you please. I'm a bit cramped here, don't mind. Gong Xiping pointed to the sofa in the living room and said.
Ai Tingting saw the slippers placed at the door at a glance. She pointed to her slippers and said, "Pingping, do you want to change your shoes?" ”
Gong Xiping was stunned for a moment and said, "If you are troublesome, you don't need to change it." ”
Ai Tingting smiled and said, "Let me enter the room without changing my shoes, then I will be uncomfortable." Also, these slippers look pretty cute. ”
Ai Tingting said as she took off the fleece boots on her feet, put them aside, and then chose a pair of light green slippers with Winnie the Pooh pattern to put on.
Xi Yuling and Jing Rumeng also took off the shoes on their feet and put on pink hellokitty and blue Dora Aemon slippers respectively.
Because Duanmu Jiao is a teacher, she doesn't need to wear a school uniform. However, she still wore a navy blue professional suit, with a women's suit on top and a short skirt underneath. Unlike in the past, she actually wore light purple stockings today, and they were stockings with a mesh pattern. On his feet is a pair of black stiletto leather shoes. Gong Xiping looked at it, and his first reaction was, isn't she cold?
Duanmu Jiao hesitated, but still took off her high heels a little unwillingly and replaced them with a pair of red slippers with a Minnie Mouse pattern.
Except for Xi Yuling, everyone else here is coming for the first time. is completely different from what he imagined before, although Gong Xiping lives alone, and he keeps saying that the place is relatively small, but when he walked in, he realized that his two-bedroom apartment is actually not small at all. Even though there were suddenly 4 more people, it didn't seem crowded at all.
The kitchen is open, and the inside is big enough, even if 5 people eat in it at the same time, you can squeeze it. The bathroom is also fully equipped with sanitary facilities and a large shower room. The living room is south-facing, and when you open the four south-facing glass doors, you can find a large balcony outside. Two bedrooms, the master bedroom is south-facing and the guest bedroom is north-facing. However, the south-facing master bedroom door is closed, and the north-facing guest bedroom door is open. Depending on the situation, Gongxi should usually sleep in the guest bedroom.
The four women sat on the beige fabric sofa in the living room. The sofa is big enough, and the 4 girls are not fat, so even if 4 people sit on it at the same time, it is not crowded at all.
Gong Xiping walked over, pointed to the snacks, drinks and fruits on the glass coffee table, and said, "You are free, you're welcome." ”
Xi Yuling looked at the things on the coffee table and said, "Little bottles, these are the ones you bought on purpose?" ”
Gong Xiping was stunned for a moment and said, "How do you know?" As soon as the words came out, she remembered that Xi Yuling had been here before, and she knew that there were no such things before.
Xi Yuling smiled and said, "You don't drink drinks or eat snacks. Moreover, if you live alone, you can't have so many styles and colors of women's slippers at home. So, these should be your new purchases. ”
When Ai Tingting heard this, she immediately looked down at the slippers on her feet. She also wondered why Gong Xiping had so many brand-new girls' slippers at home. After listening to Xi Yuling's words, she understood. She looked at the slippers and saw at a glance that there were still labels on the slippers that had not been removed. So, she reached out and tore off the label, looked at it, and suddenly laughed: "Yo, these slippers are still just bought, and the date on this label is still today!" ”
Ai Tingting's words immediately aroused the curiosity of others, and they also looked down at the slippers. Sure enough, I found the label on the slippers that hadn't been torn off, and it was all today's date. So, everyone laughed together.
Gong Xiping's face was a little hot, like a child who had been discovered a little secret, a little embarrassed. He coughed dryly and said, "That...... Let's start the review now. ”
After he finished speaking, he went into the bedroom, moved a chair out, and placed it on the other side of the glass coffee table. Then, he took out the textbooks and tutoring materials for tomorrow's exam from his schoolbag and put them on the coffee table.
However, to Gong Xiping's surprise, unlike the atmosphere of yesterday's review in the library, today's review is like a tea party. The 4 girls, including Duanmu Jiao, drank drinks and snacks at the same time, chatted and chatted, and they didn't look like reviewing at all. Gong Xiping saw that they didn't have the heart to review, so he could only sigh, put down the textbook helplessly, and listened to them chat.
Conversations between girls are usually inseparable from several topics. One is popularity. Including popular clothes, shoes, bags, etc., there are also popular TV series, and there are some fresh news or topics on the Internet. The other one, naturally, is a handsome guy. The so-called handsome guys are nothing more than some movie and TV stars. In fact, there is nothing to talk about these celebrities alone, but all kinds of scandals and news about celebrities - mainly scandals, are all talked about by these girls.
Gong Xiping listened to their small talk, and after only listening to it for 5 minutes, he didn't want to listen anymore. So, he found a book on history from his bag and flipped through it to himself.
I estimated that I had been watching it for a long time, and then I heard Jing Rumeng say: "Xiao Pingping, can you turn on the TV and let us see?" ”
Gong Xiping raised his head, glanced at the four beautiful girls sitting opposite, and sighed secretly in his heart. He stood up and searched the glass coffee table, but couldn't find the remote control of the TV. So, he searched on the TV cabinet again, but still couldn't find it. I opened the two drawers of the TV cabinet and rummaged through them for a long time, but I still couldn't find them. He was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered that the remote control had been casually thrown into the drawer of the computer desk.
So, he turned around and walked into the bedroom, opened the drawer of the computer desk, and sure enough, the remote control was inside. He walked out of the bedroom with the remote control, and when he returned to the living room, he found that there were 4 girls, and each of them did not look very good. Moreover, everyone's eyes are focused on one place.
A photograph on a glass coffee table.
Gong Xiping walked over and took a look, it turned out to be Susie's wedding photo!
How is this photo here? Gong Xiping saw the drawer of the TV cabinet that had not been closed at a glance, and his heart suddenly became abrupt. Isn't this photo just a picture that I casually threw in a drawer of the TV cabinet? After losing it, he forgot about it. If he hadn't seen it again now, he wouldn't have remembered that he still had this picture.
"This man...... This guy I seem to have seen somewhere. Duanmu Jiao's face was a little gloomy, and she pointed to the photo and said.
Seeing Gong Xiping coming over, Ai Tingting said, "Pingping, this ...... Who is this man? ”
Gong Xiping glanced at the four women who were staring at him, a trace of unhappiness appeared on his face, and said, "Don't you feel rude to look at other people's photos casually?" ”
When Duanmu Jiao heard this, she immediately argued: "This photo fell out by herself." ”
Gong Xiping was silent, stepped forward, put the remote control in his hand on the coffee table, and then took Susie's photo in his hand. Glancing at Susie with a happy smile on her face in the photo, there was a tingling in his heart for no reason. Looking away, he flipped the photo over, then walked over to the TV stand, still casually tossed the photo into the drawer, and closed the drawer.
"You guys watch TV, I'll go to the balcony and smoke a cigarette." Gong Xiping said, went straight to the balcony, and then closed the glass door to prevent the smoke from escaping in.
He took out the cigarette case from his pocket, took out a Chinese cigarette and lit it, and then lay on the handrail of the balcony, smoking while looking at the sky in the distance.
In winter, the sun always goes earlier than usual. He looked at the sunset in the sky, which was no longer so dazzling, and Susie's voice and smile appeared in his mind, as well as the figure of his daughter Ye Feifei.
After smoking two cigarettes in a row, and being blown by the northwest wind a few times, Gong Xiping suddenly realized that he had just lost his temper. It is true that when he saw Susie's wedding photos, he naturally thought of his previous life, and his heart would not be happy. However, the 4 girls sitting on the sofa, they are all unintentional. Regardless of whether the photos fell on the floor or not, even if they did come out of a drawer, it wouldn't be a big deal. After all, young people are curious. If you are in a bad mood, you will be so unkind to others, which is not hospitality at all.
Gong Xiping put the cigarette case and lighter back into his pocket, then turned and walked into the living room. He noticed that the TV was still not turned on, and the remote control was still on the coffee table. Several girls lowered their heads, each thinking about their own thoughts.
Gong Xiping immediately realized that what he said just now may have been a little heavier, which may have made them unhappy. So, he said slightly apologetically, "I'm sorry, I just ......"
Before he finished speaking, Duanmu Jiao was the first to stand up and said, "I'm sorry, we shouldn't just look at your photos." ”
Xi Yuling also stood up and said, "Little bottle, we didn't mean to see it, it's just ......"
Ai Tingting stood up and continued: "It's just that we just saw a photo in the drawer, and everyone was curious, so I took it and looked at it." ”
Jing Rumeng stood up last and said, "I instigated Tingting to get it, if you want to blame, blame me." ”
Duanmu Jiao hurriedly said: "No, no, in fact, I didn't stop them, it was me who was wrong, because I was a teacher." ”
Xi Yuling shook his head and said, "No, in fact, I also want to see it, and the photo was the first I discovered." ”
"No, it's actually my fault."
"No, it's my fault."
"No, it's me who is bad."
"No, no, I'm to blame."
The 4 girls actually scrambled to take the responsibility on their own heads, and they quarreled with each other.
Gong Xiping sighed and said, "You don't have to blame yourself, it's actually me who is not good." It's because I'm too petty. It's just a photo, but it's nothing. He paused, and found that the eyes of the four girls were focused on him, so he continued, "Actually, this picture is ...... It's from a distant cousin of mine. She... I...... I had a crush on her at the time, and then she got married, and my mind was broken, and I just kept a picture of her, mainly ...... Keep it as a souvenir. ”
Gong Xiping doesn't lie much, so he stutters a little when he lies. However, because everyone was a little cautious, no one noticed it. On the contrary, because Gong Xiping not only did not blame them, but also explained the photo, and calmed down. At the same time, the doubts about that photo were instantly dispelled.
