Chapter 41: The atmosphere is awkward
Gu Qinghan paused, turned his head slightly to look at the place where the voice came from, and saw Xia Yuxin holding Xia Yan's arm and looking at him with a smile, and Xia Mu An Ran was standing next to him.
Su Menglan and Lin Ziqing also turned their heads to look, and saw the figures of several people coming into view. After Su Menglan saw Xia Yuxin, the smile on his face froze on his face, and the smile in his eyes gradually dissipated.
I saw Xia Yuxin wearing a pure white knee-length dress, a khaki tweed coat on top, warm skirt socks on her legs, black knee-high legs, and her long soft black hair draped behind her head at will, the whole person was slim and elegant.
Su Menglan looked down at himself in a casual and casual outfit again, with no features, and his eyes couldn't help but dim slightly.
At this time, after seeing Gu Qinghan politely greeting Xia Yan and An Ran, he looked at Xia Yuxin and replied lightly: "Well, accompany your parents out for a walk, and also bring friends to breathe." β
After Xia Yuxin heard this, she seemed to have just noticed Su Menglan, and said with a little surprise: "It turns out that there are still your friends, I just noticed it!" It feels familiar, so you might as well introduce yourself! β
Su Menglan felt a little uncomfortable when she listened to Xia Yuxin's somewhat delicate and contrived words. But because of the presence of the elders, out of politeness, he said politely and slightly detachedly: "Hello, I'm Su Menglan." β
After Xia Yuxin and the others heard this, they just nodded lightly, and then continued to chat skillfully with Gu Qinghan and Lin Ziqing.
Su Menglan was left aside alone, unable to integrate into their topic, and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed and uncomfortable.
Gu Yuan and Lin Ya, who were not far away, also noticed the movement here, got up and walked in front of a few people, and greeted Xia Yuxin's family with a smile.
Lin Ya saw Su Menglan, who was a little uncomfortable, standing aside alone, and was a little distressed, so she walked directly to Su Menglan's side, and kept holding Su Menglan's hand to talk to Xia Yan and An Ran.
Su Menglan felt the warmth coming from the palm of her hand, and a warm current surged in her heart. Tilting his head slightly, he looked at Lin Ya's eyes, full of gratitude.
At this time, Xia Yan mentioned: "Old Gu, the two of us haven't played chess together for a long time, and since we met today, we should play chess for a while, right?" β
After Gu Yuan heard this, he was a little embarrassed: "This may not be very convenient, when Su Yatou comes to the house today, she should accompany her more, and she will be sent back to school safely later." So, another day? I'll be sure to accompany you another day. β
After Xia Yan heard this, he said indifferently: "What's this, just let a few juniors play together, and Yuxin will go back to school later, let's go together, I'll arrange for the driver to send them back to school safely." β
When Su Menglan heard this, she couldn't help but interject: "No need, thank you Uncle Xia for your kindness, it won't be troublesome." I'll just take the bus back in a moment. β
Lin Ya was a little disapproving: "Then where can it be." Miss Su, you are a little girl, how can Aunt Lin rest assured that you will go back to school alone at night. I think Lao Xia's proposal is also good, you can go back to school with Yu Xin, and you can chat on the way, so that Aunt Lin can rest assured. Otherwise, Aunt Lin will personally send you back. β
Su Menglan was embarrassed to disturb Lin Ya's time with her friends, so no matter how reluctant she was, she still nodded and agreed.
Lin Ziqing watched the situation develop unexpectedly, worried that Xia Yuxin would bully Su Menglan on the road for a while, so she spoke: "Parents, I suddenly remembered that I made an appointment with Menglan to go to the music classroom tomorrow morning to practice the piano for a while, so I'll go back to school with Sister Yuxin and Menglan in a while." β
After Gu Yuanlin Ya heard this, she learned that her daughter had become diligent, and agreed without hesitation.
Xia Yan smiled and said to a few juniors: "You guys play here first, and the driver will come here to pick you up in a while." Qinghan will go back with us first, and play chess with Uncle Xia for a while. β
Gu Qinghan nodded, and just as he was about to take a step, he heard Xia Yuxin say coquettishly to Xia Yan: "Dad, you talk to Uncle Gu for a while, and let Qinghan stay with me for a while!" β
After Xia Yan heard this, his eyes crossed, and he said with doting: "Okay, good, you have been the most sticky to the cold since you were a child." Then Qinghan, let's play with Yu Xin and them for a while. β
Gu Qinghan had no objection. Several people watched the figures of the four elders go away.
Xia Yuxin took a step forward, stretched out his hand to hold Gu Qinghan's arm, and said slightly coquettishly: "Qinghan, what were you playing when I came just now, it looks interesting." Can you teach me? β
Su Menglan looked at the intersecting arms of Xia Yuxin and Gu Qinghan, and couldn't help but feel a little blocked in her heart, lowered her eyes slightly, leaned over and picked up a slightly larger stone and threw it into the water, looking at the splash on the water surface, the depression in her heart still did not dissipate.
The other three were a little surprised by Su Menglan's sudden move, but then their attitudes were completely different.
After Xia Yuxin was surprised, the corners of his mouth slightly hooked up a triumphant smile, and then he continued to look at Gu Qinghan without care.
Gu Qinghan was a little puzzled, and at the same time a little surprised. I wonder why Su Menglan seems to be unhappy all of a sudden, and Su Menglan, who has always been sunny and cute, also has such an impulsive side. However, he felt that such Su Menglan was really naΓ―ve but cute.
Lin Ziqing looked at Su Menglan with some concern, and kept thinking of ways to break this embarrassing atmosphere in her mind. A flash of inspiration came to her mind, and she said to Su Menglan: "Menglan, I'm a little thirsty, can you accompany me to the supermarket across the road to buy a bottle of water?" β
Su Menglan had long wanted to stay away from this place that made her a little breathless, and after listening to Lin Ziqing's proposal, she nodded without hesitation, turned around and walked towards the supermarket with Lin Ziqing.
Gu Qinghan looked at Su Menglan's slightly thin back, and there was a dim and unknown light in his eyes.
