Chapter 429: Don't get your hopes up
"I'm going to play with you."
After entering the door, Cui Kairui came directly to Duan Zilian, patted Duan Zilian's shoulder with a smile, and looked at Duan Zilian: "Well, Pian, you feel quite handsome when you wear this work clothes like a suit." ”
"What are you talking about? Even if I don't wear overalls, I'm still handsome, right? ”
Duan Zilian rolled her eyes, made a joke, and waved her hand.
"Okay, you usually go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, but today you suddenly came to me, I don't believe you really just came to play. What's more, even if you come to play with me, I won't be able to leave, my work is not over yet. ”
"Well, actually, I came to you for something." Cui Kairui smiled embarrassedly.
"What's the matter?"
It was not Duan Zilian who asked this, but Xu Ying, who came over and wanted to know the reason why Cui Kairui suddenly came here.
Looking at Duan Zilian and Xu Ying, Cui Kairui scratched his head: "Forehead...... Here's the thing, tomorrow is May Day, our family originally planned to go to the zoo tomorrow to play, and we have already booked tickets, but I didn't expect that something happened to my hometown, and my parents are going back to their hometown tomorrow......"
"So?" Duan Zilian waited for him to finish speaking.
Cui Kairui continued: "My parents have to go back to their hometown tomorrow to deal with things, and they can't accompany me and my sister to the zoo, but they have already booked the tickets, and if you refund the tickets, you will have to pay some handling fees, which is not cost-effective, so my parents plan to let me and my sister ask two classmates to go to the zoo together tomorrow." ”
"So, you're on the lookout for us?" Duan Zilian pointed at himself, and then pointed at Xu Ying.
"Hmm." Cui Kairui nodded and patted Duan Zilian's shoulder.
"Originally, my sister wanted to call her two classmates, but my sister lost to me, so these two places belonged to me, and then I thought of you for the first time, and when I saw that the Cultural Committee was also here, it was simply you. Pity, how is it, aren't you very moved? ”
"Well, I'm very moved, I'm so moved that I'm going to cry, I'm so smashed, Dad didn't hurt you in vain." Duan Zilian said this sentence in a stick-reading tone, and behaved very perfunctory.
But in fact, he was indeed a little moved in his heart.
didn't care about Duan Zi's tone, Cui Kairui asked: "So, Pity, Cultural Committee, are you going to go to the zoo together tomorrow?" ”
"I'm free, it's fine tomorrow anyway." Xu Ying nodded, looked at Duan Zilian, and expected Duan Zilian to agree.
After all, if we go to the zoo together tomorrow, she will be able to get along with Duan Zilian.
"What about you?" Cui Kairui asked.
"Well......" Duan Zilian thought about it.
"Pity, let's go play together, anyway, my mother won't be open the day after tomorrow, you have a lot of time, you can't stay at home all day, right?" Seeing that Duan Zilian was hesitating, Xu Ying hurriedly persuaded her.
"Even if it is, maybe this is the last time we're going to hang out together in high school, so you really want to ruthlessly refuse, right?" Cui Kairui also said.
"Okay, okay, I'll go with me tomorrow." Under the persuasion of Xu Ying and Cui Kairui, Duan Zilian no longer hesitated and agreed.
Suddenly, Xu Ying and Cui Kairui were happy.
It's just that Xu Ying behaved more reservedly, so as not to let Duan Zilian see anything unusual.
"Then it's decided, tomorrow morning, I'll bring my sister to you, and gather here." Cui Kairui said happily.
"It's up to you." Duan Zi smiled helplessly.
Then, he looked at Cui Kairui strangely: "You came to me on purpose, shouldn't you?"
It's just to talk about this, right? If that's really all there is, all you have to do is send me a message. ”
"Uh...... Well, actually, I'm here, and there's another thing. Cui Kairui scratched his head a little embarrassed.
"What's the matter?" Duan Zilian asked.
Looking at Duan Zilian, Cui Kairui suddenly grabbed his shoulder and said righteously: "Pity, you must teach me to write my homework!" ”
Hearing this, Duan Zilian and Xu Ying instantly knew what the two things Cui Kairui came here were, and also knew why Cui Kairui was carrying a bag.
Dare to love him, he still came to Duan Zilian to write his homework.
It's no wonder that the teacher doesn't have many homework assignments, but every question is quite difficult, and although Cui Kairui has made rapid progress during this time, he will definitely not be able to do such a difficult topic.
"Understood, you're here to ask for mercy to teach you to do your homework." Xu Ying suddenly realized and couldn't help laughing.
Cui Kairui nodded, crying with a sad face: "Yes, the questions assigned by the teacher are too difficult, too difficult!" I thought about it for a long time last night, and I didn't write a single question, I was so difficult! ”
"You haven't written a single question, you're too wasteful, aren't you?" Duan Zilian complained.
Cui Kairui pouted: "Anyway, I'm like this, let me write such a difficult homework, then there is only one sentence - the concubine can't do it!" ”
"Okay, okay, you're yelling here, you're making noise to the other guests." Duan Zilian waved his hand and asked Cui Kairui to be quieter.
Then, he said, "Forget it, one person is also teaching anyway, and two people are also teaching, and I am about to finish my morning's work." ”
"Pity, I knew you were the best for me!" Cui Kairui was excited, and deliberately looked at Duan Zilian with affection.
"Fuck off, you're normal, I'm afraid."
Being looked at by Cui Kairui like this, Duan Zilian suddenly felt a chill, goosebumps fell to the ground, and he couldn't help but take two steps back, looking at Cui Kairui with disgust.
Shrugging his shoulders, Cui Kairui returned to normal and looked at Xu Ying next to him: "Cultural Affairs Committee, I also taught you to do your homework." ”
"No way, I don't know how to write, I thought about it all night last night, and I just stumbled and wrote a few questions." Xu Ying sighed helplessly.
"I can still write a few questions, which is already very powerful, unlike me, I can't write a single question." Cui Kairui also sighed.
"Hmm......" looked at Cui Kairui, Xu Ying thought of something, and her eyes suddenly showed a little dissatisfaction.
She suddenly thought that Cui Kairui also came to ask Duan Zilian about the homework questions, doesn't this mean that she and Duan Zilian's only two-person world has one more light bulb?
Thinking of this, Xu Ying inevitably had a little dissatisfaction and disgust in her eyes when she looked at Cui Kairui.
However, there is no way to do it, she can only sigh silently helplessly in her heart and accept this fact.
Duan Zilian didn't know what Xu Ying was thinking, and said to her and Cui Kairui: "I still have to continue to work, Kai Rui, you sit down first, otherwise, you can also let Xu Ying teach you, I have already told Xu Ying the solutions and ideas of some problems." Xu Ying, that's okay, right? ”
"Well, no problem." Xu Ying nodded helplessly.
In terms of entertaining guests, Qian Meng and Song Cheng are enough, even if she is free to teach Cui Kairui to do her homework, there is no problem.
"Then I'm fine." Cui Kairui followed, and then went to the bar and ordered some food and drink.
Seeing that Cui Kairui was ready, Xu Ying sat in the corner with him and began to teach him to do his homework.
Of course, in this process, Xu Ying deliberately kept a big deal with Cui Kairui
so as not to misunderstand the joke.
……
In the blink of an eye, the time came to noon.
Duan Zilian finished her afternoon's work, looked at Xu Ying, who was teaching Cui Kairui to write homework in the corner, and was about to go back to the room, change back into her clothes, and prepare lunch.
However, when he stood up, he saw that Ling Lanjing, who had been sitting next to the window, also stood up, packed his things, and went to check out and prepare to leave.
Seeing this, Duan Zilian was surprised.
You must know that these days, Ling Lanjing usually sits in the café all day, but now, she is leaving at noon, which is different from usual.
There must be a demon when things go wrong, is there something urgent about her?
So, with curiosity, Duan Zilian walked over, and driven by curiosity, he couldn't help but ask.
"Sister Ling, are you leaving so soon?"
"Hmm." Ling Lanjing responded.
"Is there something urgent?" Duan Zilian asked again.
"No, I just don't want to waste any more time." Ling Lanjing sighed sadly.
"Huh?" When Duan Zi heard this, he immediately became puzzled.
Looking at Duan Zilian, Ling Lanjing slowly explained: "You also know, I have been here all these days, just hoping to wait here for the Jade Dragon, but he has never appeared, I am not hopeful now, and I don't want to continue to waste time, after all, I still have to work or something, and I don't have so much time to waste." ”
"That's it......" Duan Zi couldn't help but lower his gaze.
He knew that Ling Lanjing had been coming here these days, that is, she had met Zheng Yulong here, so he hoped to try his luck and be able to wait for Zheng Yulong again.
However, Zheng Yulong never appeared, she was disappointed every day, and as time passed, her patience was naturally exhausted, and hope turned into disappointment.
"So, you won't be coming here very often, will you?" Duan Zilian asked.
"Well, though, if I'm free, I'll still come here every now and then for a coffee or something." As she spoke, Ling Lanjing barely smiled.
With that, she was leaving.
However, before leaving, she also said to Duan Zilian: "By the way, if Yulong comes to you, please notify me as soon as possible, and try to find a way to keep him here, okay?" ”
“…… Well. ”
Looking at Ling Lanjing's departing figure, Duan Zi couldn't help but sigh softly.
If he could, he wanted to tell Ling Lanjing about Zheng Yulong, but he was worried that Ling Lanjing would make any radical moves after knowing about Zheng Yulong, and he was even more afraid that Ling Lanjing would be drawn into the battle between light and darkness because of this.
Therefore, even if he couldn't bear it, Duan Zilian could only rot Zheng Yulong's affairs in his stomach.
After Ling Lanjing left, Duan Zilian shook his head and didn't think about it so much.
"Pity, pick up a bag of garbage and help take the garbage out and throw it away." At this time, Li Nan cleaned up the garbage in the store, packed the garbage, and then handed one of the bags of garbage to Duan Zilian.
"Oh, good." Nodding, Duan Zilian and Li Nan took the garbage out and threw it away.
Not long after Ling Lanjing left, when Duan Zilian and Li Nan went out to take out the garbage, she could still be seen on the crowded streets.
"Alright, let's go back." Throwing the garbage in the trash can, Li Nan clapped his hands and immediately turned back.
Duan Zilian followed.
It's just that Duan Zilian didn't notice that when Li Nan went back, he suddenly turned his head and glanced at the corner of the street not far away.
