218, a circle of ripples
Xia Zhi took a shower and was ready to go to bed, and as soon as he climbed into bed, the doorbell rang. She subconsciously wanted to pretend that there was no one in the house, but the doorbell rang insistently, and she could only shuffle to open the door.
Han Junxi actually ran back again.
She leaned against the door and watched him raise his hand, a small bag containing two boxes of medicine in her left hand and vegetables and meat bought from the market in her right hand.
He grinned, "I guess you don't want to cook tonight, right?" Would you like to cook you a porridge? ”
Xia Zhi turned sideways and let him into the house: "Thank you, I'll come by myself." ”
She really didn't want to cook anymore, but the original idea was to sleep until she woke up naturally, and then order a takeout when she was hungry, and if it was too late, she might just eat instant noodles.
He put things on the stove: "Where do you put the rice?" It won't even be rice. ”
She gently pushed him open the cabinet under the sink, which contained a small bucket of rice.
He put his arm on her hand to stop her from crouching down, and said, "You, roll me back into bed." ”
She hesitated, and he immediately sank his face: "Do you want me to carry you to bed?" ”
"Nerves." She muttered and shook off his hand, and after returning to bed, she sent a message to Xiao Yiqing and Liang Lu about going to Yancheng and coming back, and put down her phone to get ready to sleep.
She listened to him wash rice, cut meat and vegetables in the kitchen, only a corner away from her, and the sound was not loud, but she still couldn't sleep.
After about ten minutes, he turned around with a glass of boiled water, and seeing that she was still awake, he walked directly to the edge of the bed and sat down: "Come, drink some water." ”
She pulled the quilt to her chest, leaned up slightly, took the glass of water and said, "Okay, you can go back." I'll just stay by myself, I'll trouble you for the past two days. ”
"Yo, Chen Dajiao, your tone is wrong." He pretended to exaggerate and said, "You actually said thank you to me and said trouble." ”
is really a person who can't say a good word to him, Xia Zhi pulled down his face again and said, "Then are you going or not leaving?" ”
"Don't go." If you want to say that he is thick-skinned, Han Junxi can also be regarded as the number one person, "I haven't eaten either, you can't cross the river and tear down the bridge." After being busy for a long time, you drove me away without taking a sip of porridge water, right? ”
"Isn't it just ten minutes? Where is it for half a day? ”
"You don't count the time to buy groceries? Anyway, I'll eat before I leave, you give me a good lay. ”
"What are you doing here?" Xia Zhi frowned, this porridge pot is so good that it will be at least more than an hour, how can she sleep when he stays in the house?
"Eldest sister, have you forgotten that today is a working day, I specially asked for leave to accompany you to Yancheng. If I don't get the manuscript out again, I won't have to go to work tomorrow. So, now you lie down for me and don't speak, and let me be quiet for two hours. ”
It was so easy to make her quiet, but she thought it was too strange for him to be quiet.
He stood up, opened the bag he had just put on the sofa, the laptop was always with him, he sat down at the computer desk on the summer solstice, turned on the computer, put on the headphones and started working.
She crumpled the corners of the quilt into a ball and hugged it to her chest, looking at his intently back, and her heart lake rippled.
She is not hard-hearted, and she doesn't hate him as much as she thinks, like he has been silently by her side for the past two days, not saying what she shouldn't say, and taking action in time when she is stunned, so that she can be very useful......
She rejected him, more for her own reasons and had nothing to do with him. At first, she was still tied to Pan Rui in her heart, and there was no way to invest in another relationship, and then she was disappointed in love and marriage, which made her dare not try it easily.
Further, his previous performance really made her feel insecure. If she were ten years younger, she might be happy to play like this, and she thought sadly, Ben San, where can she tolerate so much naivety, and accepting a relationship means accepting the practical problems that come with it.
She doesn't have the age to try love. If it's still empty after the fight, she'd rather not love it.
She didn't tell him these questions. They are far from being at such a stage of reassurance. Pulling out in time before you start can avoid more damage – she felt.
She lay on the bed so cranky and couldn't sleep at all, and when she heard the "gurgling" bubbling sound from the rice cooker, she quickly jumped out of bed to open the lid.
A cloud of white steam poured out of the pot, and she was caught in her hand and screamed as hot.
"What's wrong?" He heard the call and quickly took off his headphones and ran over, "It's hot?" Chen Dajiao, you are really stupid, why don't you call me? ”
He pulled her covered left hand under the faucet, turned on the water and rushed: "Is it better?" Is there any ointment? Do you want to apply it? ”
She was half surrounded by him, and with one side of her head, his face was just less than two fists away from hers, and every arc of his face was particularly clear.
She hadn't noticed that his facial features were quite good, his eyes were not big, but his lines were hard and heroic. It doesn't belong to the appearance that makes people unforgettable at first sight, but the more you look at it, the more flavorful it becomes.
Seeing that she didn't respond, he turned off the faucet and looked down at her, and was stunned for a few seconds when he met her gaze, and suddenly smiled: "No, if you look at me like this, I will want to kiss you, and then you will say that I will be wrong." ”
She was startled by his words, realized her gaffe, her face was hot, and she quickly lowered her head and pulled out her hand, which slipped out between his body and the stove.
She rummaged through the dishes and chopsticks, her hands were not so embarrassed, she said: "The porridge is ready, I scalded the meat and vegetables into it, have you finished your manuscript?" ”
"Okay, I'll be right away. Write to the end. He smiled at her and walked to the desk.
She took out the eggs and frozen buns from the refrigerator, quickly set up the steamer to steam the buns, and put the gas stove on the frying pan, ready to fry two eggs. After that, the marinated meat and chopped vegetables are poured into the porridge.
Dinner was ready, and Han Junxi finished writing. He closed the computer and ran over to help with the meal.
The ingredients are very light, just full, but Han Junxi shouted that it was delicious.
"Haven't eaten frozen buns?" Xia Zhi glanced at him and said.
"It's been a long time since I've tried to sit like this in Nanzhou and eat homely food." He said with a smile, "After graduation, I came to Nanzhou and just started working as an editor in the news network. It's good to edit, but it's actually copy and paste, do you know how boring it is? It's just moving around with the mouse all day, and at that time I suspected that I had been cold for ten years, and I ran to this most prosperous first-tier city in the south to find my dream, and it turned out to be really fucking.
Later, he resigned and started to run the news, not at first in Nanri. A rookie reporter, who is not familiar with his life, has no connections, no news clues, and language barriers, squatting in the park every day to watch his uncle play chess and watch his aunt dance, and his manuscripts are always killed. Now that I've been mixed for twelve years, I'm starting to feel like I'm finally being accepted into the city. ”
