Chapter 3 Recuperate for the sake of the old face

The three of them got into the car together, and the house they were going to was a set specially approved by Qiao An's work unit, with two bedrooms, one living room and one bathroom, the environment was fine, and it was still on the top floor. Qiao Yang looked at Qiao An so promisingly, thinking that he really didn't hurt him in vain when he was a child, but he could finally get rid of this rental house, did his girlfriend who came to the house before not know that he moved away, and what if he couldn't find him when the time came.

He was thinking about taking out his mobile phone and looking for a few beautiful girls to tell him the address he moved to, but he was snatched by Qiao An, who was driving next to him: "Brother, this is the house for you and Xiao Xia to live in, don't bring anyone back for me, and don't take Xiao Xia badly, otherwise I won't be able to spare you."

Qiao Yang pouted, turned his head reluctantly, thinking that he had been squeezed by the landlord and treated differently by the 'good' neighbors who lived in this rental house, this feeling he actually recalled in his mind, and he actually moved away like this, he knew that he should put a super large stereo on these suites, and turn on the stereo to the maximum before dawn, so as to wake up their sweet dreams.

Qiao Yang secretly thought about these in his heart, and his face was full of smug smiles, as if he had seen the helplessness and madness of his neighbors.

However, sitting in the car, Qiao An's focus was not on Qiao Yang, and he couldn't see Qiao Yang's impure behavior, he asked Qiao Xia about his life in the United States over the years while driving the car.

Qiao An's uncle is at least more like an elder than Qiao Yangdang, at least he asked the reason why Qiao Xia went abroad alone, her mother was pregnant, and she was also carrying a child from her ex-husband, and the little girl should have lacked love during that time, so she would sneak back to China alone to see his father.

But his father is really hard to say. Qiao An looked at Qiao Yang, who was smirking at the sky, and sighed silently in her heart. When the destination arrived, Qiao An took the initiative to help Qiao Xia carry her luggage, and mentioned softly: "Xiao Xia, how dangerous it is to return to China alone, tell me if you want to return to China next time, and let your mother know, understand?" ”

Qiao An said a few words, he had never been gentle in front of his girlfriend for more than ten years, and without letting Qiao Yang's goosebumps fall to the ground, Qiao Xia still nodded a little coldly, at most she smiled at him, even if she laughed, it was a little unnatural.

The house arrived, the space is not big, but no one has lived in it, it is a good terrain to sit north and face south, Qiao Yang pushed the luggage into the door, and lay on the sofa in the living room, looking at Qiao Xia, who was fine just now, and came in with a mask, and said curiously: "There is no haze in this place, hurry up and pick it up."

Qiao Xia frowned for a long time, and squeezed out one word: "dirty", this place is indeed uninhabited, but no one cleans it, Qiao An kept it for dust at most.

Qiao An wiped a thick layer of ash on the table, and awkwardly touched the back of his head with his other hand: "It turns out that Xiao Xia has a habit of cleanliness", as soon as the words fell, Qiao Xia had already stuffed the paper towel she was carrying into Qiao An's hand, and then took the disinfectant spray and was about to wipe Qiao An's hand on his hand for a second purification.

They all turned their heads at the same time to look at the couch that had been taken care of. Well! This person is probably hopeless.

didn't let Qiao Yang get up to take a shower, and directly gave him a broom to clean up, the two of them were tired and sweaty, Qiao Xia also cleaned his room and Qiao Yang's room meticulously, I didn't know that cleanliness had such a benefit, Qiao Xia cleaned the place was cleaner than the kitchen and living room they cleaned.

Qiao Yang took a bath, tired and paralyzed and lay on the sofa, Qiao An gave each of them a bottle of ice water bought outside, followed by the doorbell rang, Qiao An got up again to open the door, there was a woman about twenty-seven or eight standing outside the door (according to Qiao Yang's accurate estimate), her face was not good-looking, but the clothes on her body were less cloth, and she was a little more exposed, holding a plate of fruit and greeting Qiao An who opened the door warmly: "I heard that there are people living here, I came to see the new neighbor, I live next door to you", She pointed to the next room.

There are neighbors visiting the door, and they are still sexy women, his brother has already come at this moment, but when he shouted in the living room with a half-turned posture: "Brother", no one answered, there was no one in the living room for a long time, and Qiao Xia sat on the sofa in the other corner.

There were two bottles of ice water on the coffee table in front of her desk, her water was not boiling, and when she saw Qiao An and the woman standing at the door, she looked over to her at the same time, and quickly pointed to Qiao Yang's room, and explained in a daze: "He entered the house, saying that it was inconvenient to meet guests."

At this moment, of course, Qiao Yang would not appear in front of the girl with this image, his right eye was wrapped in gauze, covering his face, how could he go out to meet people with this image, and what would the girls he see think of him. He leaned against the door, his ear to the door, and thought for a moment that he would not go out to meet people during this time.

He eavesdropped on the uninvited female neighbor in the house, and the voice felt fresh and lovely through the crack in the door, he carefully recalled it and wrote down the name of the female neighbor: Chen Lili. Well! It's the same type as the girl's name he's flirted with before.,It's already decided.,When the injury in the corner of the eye heals, I'll definitely run to visit the door as soon as possible.。

The enthusiastic female neighbor left, and Qiao Yang came out of the room stupidly, looking at the extra fruit on the coffee table, which she had sent, and smiled at the fruit.

Qiao An glanced at him in disgust, patted him on the back and said: "You have a wide range of coverage, and you don't let go of the grass next to the nest, I'm telling you, don't bring your indiscriminate people to your home, let alone bring them back to teach Xiaoxia badly, otherwise you will be good-looking."

Qiao Yang glanced at him indignantly when he heard this, why did this kid still kill his relatives in righteousness.

Qiao Yang nodded his head twice in a daze, continued to sit on the sofa, ate the fruit, and the time was not early, he said a few goodbyes to Qiao Xia, and then turned his head and continued to say to Qiao Yang: "Brother, you quit your work in the stage play, I asked a friend to find you a stable job, and now that Xiao Xia is back, you want to have a snack."

Qiao Yang swallowed the banana he had just eaten in his mouth, got up and said excitedly: "Then what's the matter, I've been in the troupe for most of my life, how can I say resign and resign, I won't do this." ”

Qiao Yang said and sat on the sofa again, posing in a posture of 'I don't listen', Qiao An also looked helpless, he first smiled awkwardly at Qiao Xia's side, and then coaxed the child's attitude: "It's good that you are there, anyway, your job is to feed the whole family without hunger, but that job is not very stable for your financial resources, you see you still have a daughter to raise, are you willing to let Xiao Xia drink the northwest wind."

"I", Qiao Yang just wanted to answer, but he only spit out the word "I" and didn't say anything, and he didn't know whether he was willing or unwilling.

"You are willing, I am not willing to do it", he decided for Qiao Yang himself, put a business card on the coffee table, and added another sentence when he walked to the door: "The afternoon after tomorrow, I will pick you up for an interview."

Without saying much, he left, leaving Qiao Yang alone in place, he didn't be stunned for many seconds, and yelled directly outside the door: "I'm injured like this, do you kid want me to go out and be scared, I don't want to lose face."

He slammed the door sharply, ignoring Qiao Xia, who had already entered the house, sitting on the sofa, holding the mirror and still looking at his face that was covered by gauze over his right eye, it was a failure, a failure on his face.

He tried to remove the pen, but the wound gave off a dull ache and told him not to take it away. The wound didn't hurt him very much, but he still grinned slightly, which was his instinctive reaction to the pain.

He continued to grope his face again, as if he hadn't seen his face in more than forty years, a few more wrinkles and a few more gray hairs in old age, and he sighed and regretted.

Suddenly remembering the uninvited guest who came today, he raised his throat and shouted into Qiao Xia's room: "Xiao Xia, you come out."

This is still Qiao Yang who is not very familiar with her name since he saw Qiao Xia, Xiao Xia, Xiao Xia. It's a little uncomfortable to shout this name.

After a few minutes, Qiao Xia came out of the house, still calm and calm, she sat down slowly and unhurriedly, lowered her head and looked at a book in her hand, and only looked at him when Qiao Yang began to speak.

"Do you think that even if I have this piece of gauze, I am still quite handsome, isn't it also quite attractive", Qiao Yang asked very seriously, he felt that he was handsome because of his parents, and the charm was given by himself, and in his eyes, charm was more important than handsome.

"Huh"? Qiao Xia hesitated for a moment, lowered her head and closed the book, looked up at him again, and waited for him to answer with a serious face, she could only nod helplessly, and read in her mouth: "It's okay."

It's okay, there is no affirmation or denial, Qiao Yang didn't admit defeat and continued to ask: "Then don't you think this thing on my eyes is not as handsome as before, it's a standard handsome face."

Qiao Xia looked at Qiao Yang as if he was an ignorant child asking his parents and teachers to admit himself. If he admits it, he will laugh, and if he doesn't admit it, he will cry Of course, he thinks that Qiao Yang will not cry.

Qiao Xia nodded, this time she didn't even say that it was okay, and verified Qiao Yang's point of view on the nod.

Qiao Yang squinted his eyes, looked at him obliquely, held the mirror in one hand and pointed at her with the other, and said in his mouth: "There is vision."

After finishing speaking, he looked in the mirror again, and did not pay attention to Qiao Xia, Qiao Xia was not to be outdone, took out a few pieces of paper from the book and said: "This is the school I applied to attend, it is not far from here, accompany me to it tomorrow."

"Why do you want me to go", Qiao Yang pointed to his right eye, he went out, isn't it a shame.

Josh didn't want to argue, and continued to say reasonably: "The school needs to be accompanied by parents."

Speaking of parents, Qiao Yang really didn't have the posture of a parent, so he casually put his feet on the coffee table and said, "You let your uncle accompany you."

"But my dad is you, not my uncle."

What did he mean by this, Qiao Yang occasionally had this thought in his sensitive mind, 'but', 'no' The thoughts and feelings in this girl's words are to hope that her father is Qiao An, not herself.

Hmph, what's wrong with him. Isn't Joan more enthusiastic than herself, little white-eyed wolf, she is kind to you, can she come out without the sperm he contributed.

Thinking of this, Qiao Yang lightly cast disdain, put down his feet, put down the mirror in his hand, and said with a strong face: "Do you think I can go out to meet people like this, I don't care if I have to stay at home these days, and I will talk about it when I heal from my injuries, either you will delay that matter for a few days, or let Qiao An accompany you."

As he spoke, he slipped back to his room at a rapid pace, slammed the door, pulled the chain and closed the door.

Qiao Xia, who was still in the living room, saw his move, and helplessly looked at his door and sighed quietly: "Childish."
