Chapter 13: Toys
Su Xiaoqiao, Lin Nian's classmate, is also the initiator of tonight's hot pot dinner, and it is really beyond Lin Nian's expectation to meet here.
"Why didn't you take the car this weather? It's still far from the hot pot restaurant... Get in the car! Su Xiaoqiao was just stunned for a while, then immediately came back to his senses, and immediately opened the door of the business Mercedes-Benz and gave way to the leather seat.
"It's a coincidence, you won't charge me for the fare, will you?" Lin Nian also seemed a little surprised.
"Don't be poor, get in the car." Su Xiaoqiao gave him a blank look.
Lin Nian smiled and got into the car, and the upright little goddess sitting on the side also sat down, and the car door closed, leaving only the warmth all over the body and the fragrance of coffee tree flowers on her side.
The air conditioner in the car was not turned on much, a crack was opened in the window on the side of Su Xiaoqiao, and the cold wind whined in from the outside, Lin Nian noticed that Su Xiaoqiao was dressed up today, with a little light makeup on his face, a red woolen coat on his body, a thin white woolen sweater lined inside, light blue jeans showing a white ankle, and white sneakers on his feet.
This dress is very eye-catching but also a little hot, Lin Nian also simply opened the window of his car here, although it is still only half a step into the spring, but it is still possible to cover the prickly heat with the air conditioner on, and most of the girls' skin is still quite squeamish now.
The window was opened, and the car fell into silence, the driver of the business Mercedes-Benz was a specially hired driver of Su Xiaoqiao's family, so naturally he would not take the initiative to provoke the topic, Su Xiaoqiao and Lin Nian sat side by side in the back seat, with a gap of not too big or too small in the middle, and no one spoke first, and could only hear the sound of the cold wind whistling outside the window.
Lin Nian turned his head to look at the fleeting scenery outside the car, as if he was watching flowers at night.
There was a poet named Meng Jiao in the Tang Dynasty who wrote a poem about the spring breeze and horseshoe disease, one day to see all the Chang'an flowers, the environment he is in now is actually such a meaning, Mercedes-Benz to the ancient times can not compare to the sweat and blood BMW should be almost deserved, Su Xiaoqiao next to him also painted light makeup today, is it not a bud that blooms in spring?
If other boys were to sit here, it is estimated that they would be ready to move when they smell the girl's fragrance, but Lin Nian did not feel this way, on the contrary, he felt a little embarrassed.
It's not that he hates Su Xiaoqiao, Su Xiaoqiao is a very good person, he has no reason to annoy her, he doesn't like the IQ of her relationship with Su Xiaoqiao, since the incident at the beginning of school, his relationship with Su Xiaoqiao has been very strange.
"Thank you." Lin Nian suddenly opened his mouth and broke the silence.
"Thanks for what?" Su Xiaoqiao picked up quickly.
"Didn't you invite Lu Mingfei to dinner, I'll help him thank you." Lin Nian rubbed his fingers and said.
"And you, I said in the group that I will pay for the two of you tonight." Su Xiaoqiao said.
"I'm fine, I've earned some money from my part-time job, and it's still enough to have a meal." Lin Nian patted the pocket on the right side of his clothes.
"It's okay, I said I had a treat, will you pay to prevent people from laughing at me when the time comes?" Su Xiaoqiao looked particularly arrogant.
Lin Nian was silent for a while and looked up in the rearview mirror to look at Su Xiaoqiao, but he didn't expect to meet her gaze directly in the rearview mirror, and the two lines of sight were just staggered and immediately separated, Lin Nian immediately smiled and said, "Sometimes I always want to call you brother." ”
"What?" Su Xiaoqiao didn't react, turned his head and glanced at Lin Nian, a little hesitant: "Do you want to say that I am a man?" ”
"No, have you read the Water Margin? The heroes of Liangshan in it all call the righteous people brother, and you are the most righteous in our class. Lin Nian laughed after speaking.
Su Xiaoqiao was stunned for a moment and smiled, she subconsciously raised her hand and wanted to pat Lin Nian's arm, but when her hand was halfway up, she put it down in an orderly manner, just sat in her seat and smiled.
A joke that is not big or small can be regarded as melting away the embarrassment in the car, Su Xiaoqiao finally chatted with Lin Nian in a harmonious manner, the topics between high school students are not limited, everyone's topics are very mixed, maybe there was a look like talking about national affairs last moment, and the next second he suddenly whispered which teacher is really a chicken woman, and the winter vacation homework has to be corrected one by one.
Su Xiaoqiao likes to talk about her family's affairs the most, because of her family background, she always has a lot of endless trivial stories, just now which mine worker went to his own house because of a work injury, and he still had a knife in his hand, but before he was halfway away, he was stopped by his father's bodyguard and sent to the police station.
Now I say that this year's real estate problem, the coal mine has depreciated, and my father has committed the boss's temper, but things have twists and turns, because of the international situation, manganese ore and iron ore have appreciated again, and the coal mine has made up for the loss of money, and even made three times more...
So there are very few girls in Shilan Middle School who like to chat with Su Xiaoqiao, everyone is talking about Burberry's windbreaker, Dior's perfume, La prairie's cosmetics, Su Xiaoqiao's mouth is what is mine, what is in the company, and the topic suddenly can't go on.
So the name of the little goddess actually has such a meaning in it, a small number of people secretly counted her and said that she is a KY, the people who have a mine at home are indeed different, sitting on the mine is like sitting in the sky.
In the car, Su Xiaoqiao was talking a lot about herself, and Lin Nian didn't interrupt her, she just listened quietly, with a peaceful and patient smile on her face.
Su Xiaoqiao said a lot, most of them were about herself, and she looked at Lin Nian every time she said something, Lin Nian saw that she seemed to be a little worried that she was annoyed, but she restrained all her emotions very well and did not reveal any of them. He was always a good listener, he didn't give an opinion, but he showed me to be listening all the time.
In fact, it stands to reason that the maverick little goddess will not have this kind of emotion, she is not Chen Wenwen who likes sadness and sadness, if it is a delicate Chen Wenwen, she will probably ask softly now: You don't think I'm annoying, right?
So how could Lin Nian feel annoyed by Su Xiaoqiao, a girl brought the box with toys hidden at home to you, which contained the things she was most proud of, and put the toys in front of you one by one like showing off, but the emotions hidden in it were actually more like saying, look, I have so many fun things, can you play with me?
If it was someone else's estimate, he would nod heartlessly and say yes, yes, but Lin Nian is different, he can't say it, as for the reason, he doesn't know why, he just thinks that they are not suitable, just inappropriate.
Lin Nian thought a lot about the business Mercedes-Benz, he always talked far less in his mouth than in his heart, he looked at Su Xiaoqiao and felt that the friends around her probably thought that she was showing off when she said this, right? So keeping a distance from her, few people can see the little emotions hidden in her heart, he can see it, so Su Xiaoqiao likes to chat and talk with him the most.
Su Xiaoqiao is one of the few memories of Lin Nian in this city, in school, she is the only one who is willing to pester Lin Nian to tell her a lot of things that she has and does not have, so thinking about it, most of the pictures in the two years of high school have the face of the little goddess, running from here to there, shouting her name in her mouth.
Coldly, Lin Nian remembered what Mandy said by chance this morning, she said that once she accepted the olive branch of the Kassel Academy, then he would say goodbye to his previous life forever.
Isn't life made up of people and things you meet? Say goodbye to life forever, that is, say goodbye to Su Xiaoqiao and Shi Lanli's classmates forever?
But the ticket to the Kassel Academy is to Chicago, not to the crematorium, how can we talk about saying goodbye forever?
"Is there anything on my face?" Su Xiaoqiao found that Lin Nian was staring at his face intently, and subconsciously turned sideways and took out a small mirror from his bag.
"No, I'm sorry, I was just in a daze." Lin Nian reacted and took the initiative to apologize, it is not polite to be in a daze when others are talking.
The business Mercedes-Benz suddenly stopped, and the driver turned his head and whispered, "It's here." ”
Su Xiaoqiao pulled the car door and got out of the car, Lin Nian followed, the car was parked at the door of a hot pot restaurant called "Jianghu Taste", and the spicy smell mixed with the night breeze made people feel refreshed.
There were a few classmates chatting and waiting for someone at the door of the hot pot restaurant, and when they saw Lin Nian and Su Xiaoqiao getting out of the car together, they suddenly started to coax, Su Xiaoqiao was downright and generous, and when he walked over, he slapped the back of the head of a few stinky boys who screamed the loudest, and immediately played with a few girls, and the girls clustered her up like flowers, and she peeked at Lin Nian in the crowd from time to time, shining like a sunflower in the sun.
Lin Nian stood in place and looked up at the four LED signboards of the hot pot restaurant, the red light was bright and dazzling, for some reason he always felt that there was a killing smell in the smell of chili peppers, and he would go in and eat hot pot for a while, and someone would not break out to chop him into meat sauce with three hundred knives and axes, right?
didn't think too much about it, a group of boys gathered around and squeezed into the hot pot restaurant together, if this is really a Hongmen banquet, now you have to go if you don't go.
