Chapter 240: What Home Looks Like
Lin Xi looked at the little ghost in front of him, the smile between his eyebrows grew, and he held him in his arms and comforted him for a long time before reluctantly leaving the Huo family.
When I got home, I saw Chang Liuli busy in the kitchen at this time, jumping around lightly, and constantly fiddling with the dishes in the wok.
"You're back?" After hearing the voice, Chang Liuli turned her head and smiled between her eyebrows.
Lin Xi's body froze in place, feeling that there was finally a trace of popularity in the room, and felt that the home was extremely warm.
It's kind of like home.
Sighing in his heart, after Lin Xi put on his slippers, he took the initiative to come to the kitchen and brought out the meal cooked by Chang Liuli.
Until all the meals were arranged, Chang Liuli came out of the kitchen with a smile on her face, took the initiative to light a candle, and turned off the light in the entrance.
"It was the first meal I cooked at home today, and I had to take a picture of it." As he spoke, he took out his mobile phone from his pocket and smiled brightly at the camera.
Lin Xi turned his face awkwardly, picked up his hand and took the initiative to cover himself, and Chang Liuli on the side quickly grabbed his arm and pressed his wrist.
"Why don't you like to take pictures when you're so handsome?" Chang Liuli sighed, put away the phone, and took the initiative to take out the dishes and chopsticks from behind him and put them in front of the man.
He looked at Lin Xi with his hands on his cheeks: "Taste it, is it delicious?" ”
Warmth appeared in Lin Xi's deep eyes, and he took the initiative to pick up chopsticks, pick up a piece of braised pork and put it in his mouth, and savor it.
The fat but not greasy taste is particularly delicious, and after eating two pieces in a row, I pulled the rice in the bowl, and I couldn't help but give Chang Liuli a thumbs up.
"The cooking is great."
He has lived abroad with Huo Qin'er for three whole years, although he cooks almost every day, but his cooking skills have not made any progress, and now he tastes the food made by Chang Liuli, and he feels like home.
"It reminds me of the braised pork that my grandmother made for me when I ate at home when I was a child." Chang Liuli listened to the straight man's praise, his face was full of black lines, and he sat back: "I'll just treat you as a compliment to me." ”
The two looked at each other and smiled, and the atmosphere during the meal was relaxed and warm, like a family.
For a few days, Chang Liuli was in the villa, hardly going out, and made new tricks for every meal.
Until this day, after getting off work, Lin Xi sat on the sofa after eating, watching TV comfortably, and kept looking at Chang Liuli.
After watching her come out of the kitchen, she suggested: "You should hurry up and find a job." ”
After hearing this, Chang Liuli's body froze in place, his hands were still dripping after washing, and he couldn't help but look back at Lin Xi.
"Are you trying to drive me away?" She shouted out this sentence angrily, feeling more and more uncomfortable, and went directly back to her room and began to pack her luggage.
Lin Xi looked at this scene with black lines on his face, his eyebrows were extremely entangled, and his footsteps kept hesitating downstairs, but he still didn't go upstairs in the end.
Before he could sit back on the sofa, Chang Liuli at this time dragged his heavy luggage with a gloomy face and walked down from the second floor.
"Since you want to drive me away, just say it, don't beat around the bush." glanced at him indifferently, Chang Liuli only felt that he had not warmed Lin Xi's heart at all in the past few days, but had provoked his disgust at home.
Before Lin Xi could speak, there was disappointment between her eyebrows, and she directly strode and disappeared from the villa dragging her luggage.
Lin Xi stretched out her hand and wanted to stop Chang Liuli, but she still had to go out to work in the end, and a woman living in her own house for so long without a name or a share would also have an impact on her reputation.
The words that were tangled in his mouth were finally swallowed back, Lin Xi sighed heavily, and his hand frozen in mid-air was silently retracted.
Until the next morning, walking down from the second floor, Lin Xi looked at the huge living room empty, and his heart was extremely lost.
After opening the refrigerator, there were still leftovers from last night's meal in it, Lin Xi directly took a bread to make up for breakfast and drove to the company.
For a few days, the originally warm home became unpopular, and Lin Xi leaned on the sofa with his hands on his cheeks after eating takeout, thinking about the laughter and laughter of the glass when he was at home.
But she didn't come back.
Wen's Group, Huo Qin'er, who was at work, saw Lin Xi listless for a few days, and couldn't help but be full of curiosity, and stepped forward and slapped his arm violently.
Lin Xi's body was agitated, and he turned his head in astonishment, and his eyebrows were faintly mixed with anticipation.
After seeing that it was Huo Qin'er again, the light in his eyes was completely extinguished, "Why are you here?" ”
"Of course I came to see you, I saw that you were absent-minded at work these days, were you dumped by your girlfriend?"
Huo Qin'er teased Lin Xi with her hands on her chest, with a smile between her eyebrows.
Lin Xi's pursed lips were silent, but his heart was entangled. Chang Liuli is just a female tenant living in her own home, and the two of them just met in Pingshui, not girlfriends.
But why did she feel obviously low in energy in the past two days after she left?
"I ......"
"What are you, you must have something on your mind recently, but I didn't expect you to grow up and hide something from me." Huo Qin'er couldn't help but raise her eyebrows, took the initiative to come to the water dispenser, poured a glass of warm water and put it in front of him.
Lin Xi didn't want to continue this topic, so he coughed lightly and interrupted Huo Qin'er's words, "What are you coming to me for?" Is it that the company has a new task recently? ”
Huo Qin'er couldn't help but sigh when she thought that Wen Yanshen came to find her this morning and asked her to accompany her on a business trip.
"Actually, you also know that Wen's Group has been struggling recently, Wen Yanshen recently has a business to discuss outside the province, and wants me to go on a business trip with him." Her eyes fluttered, and she looked at Lin Xi apologetically.
"You also know that my father has been in poor health recently, I want you to help take care of him, and Huo Siyan has been pestering me more and more recently, and I want you to go to see him more and accompany him for a walk."
Huo Qin'er fiddled with her hands with some embarrassment, she originally wanted to refuse Wen Yanshen, but she was Wen Yanshen's secretary, and the president was on a business trip, so she should be by her side.
Now that there are too many things in the Huo family, it makes people worry, Huo Qin'er has no choice but to run to Lin Xi's office and ask him to help take care of it.
"Don't worry, I will definitely help take care of Huo Siyan more, I know he needs me very much."
Hearing Lin Xi's promise, Huo Qin'er's worries calmed down a little, and she looked at him gratefully.
"Don't worry, when you have a girlfriend in the future, I will definitely say all your good things in front of your girlfriend." Lin Xi smiled bitterly and waved his hand, but Chang Liuli's figure flashed in his mind.
