Chapter 7:
Hearing this, Wang Yuan's footsteps paused, but Ye Tang didn't give him a chance to speak,
"Wang Yuan, I don't owe you this supper after I invited you to eat this supper today, I don't think there is any need for us to meet again in the future. We are not people of the world. ”
This sentence was said very quickly, as if she was afraid of being interrupted, she took out a bag from her bag and handed it to Wang Yuan,
"Thank you."
By the time Wang Yuan reacted, Ye Tang had already disappeared. His heart was sullen, as if he was blocked by something, and on the way home, the dark yellow street lamp stretched his shadow very long. When I got home, I opened the paper bag, and there were several bottles of hot sauce in it, and a small note.
"Wang Yuan, thank you very much for your help several times. That time I heard you singing in the bar, it was very good, and I also remembered that you were the star Wang Yuan, which was a little incredible. I've been longing for peace and stability for the past few years in my life, so I'm sorry, I think it's better for us to keep our distance. Thank you with these hot sauces and Happy New Year. ”
Although they didn't spend much time together, Wang Yuan still got to know Ye Tang a little, and she must have been very awkward when she wrote this. Just like those few few sentences of dialogue tonight, the coldness in the tone is obvious. The first few conversations were the same, like a mission, like paying off a debt, like two clearances, and then turned around and left, no longer asking behind you.
Thinking of the phone call that made the atmosphere cool down all of a sudden, Wang Yuan frowned, he remembered what the boss said, in the past few years, he had never seen anyone come to see her. He smiled wryly and shook his head.
After Ye Tang over there went home, the old couple was making desserts, and when they saw her come back,
"Sweetheart! Oh, and finally a friend is looking for you to hang out. It's not good to be alone. Let's make a snack together, tomorrow is Christmas Eve. ”
Ye Tang skillfully prepared, and after a while, he finished some Christmas pudding, and after baking, the old lady took one and tasted it.
"Oh! Sweetheart! It tastes great! You taste it too. ”
Ye Tang also tasted it, and the taste of rum spread in his mouth, sweet, and his whole body relaxed. Little by little, she finished eating the pudding and had just finished washing the dishes.
"Sweetheart, let's join us for dinner tomorrow night. I introduced you to my sons, and they all wanted to get to know you. "Thank you, but I made an appointment with the store manager to go to work early tomorrow night, and I didn't go to the store to prepare for the exam during this time, I
I'm afraid that I won't be able to explain if I don't go. ”
"Ah, well, let's skip dinner and go later. You see, you've helped us make so many delicious snacks. ”
"Good. I'm sorry for you. ”
Looking at the old man with gray hair and smiling kindly, the aftertaste of rum still lingering on the tip of her tongue, somehow, she seemed to taste a hint of fruit.
Early that morning, the sons of the old couple came to the door with their families, and this was the first time Ye Tang met the Smith and his family. The two uncles were very humorous, and when they saw Ye Tang who helped them open the door, they laughed and teased her. The adult was followed by two people about her age, each holding a child.
"Oh! You're Canary, and I'm my kids, my sister Kerwin, and my brother Milo. And my wife, Larry. ”
"Sweetheart, I'm Uncle Murphy, the Murphy of Murphy's Law, hahaha, this is my eldest son, Jeremy, this is the youngest daughter, oh, Shelley, don't be shy. This beautiful woman is my wife, Hyman. ”。
Ye Tang greeted them one by one, looking at the sunny smiles on everyone's faces, she also smiled faintly, and suddenly remembered Wang Yuan, you are already on the way back to China.
