Qiao Ping didn't seem to expect her to ask this, and was stunned for a while, two people, you look at me, I look at you, the atmosphere was a little subtle for a while.

"Ahem...... In fact...... What if I said I had seen your picture? ”

"Huh?" Xue Lanlan looked at the handsome guy in front of her incomprehensibly and asked questions.

"It's that your face is the type I like, and so are you, your figure" Speaking of this, Xue Lanlan saw that Qiao Ping's face was red, and he scratched the back of his neck nervously.

Xue Lanlan couldn't help but chuckle when she saw that he was shy, she paused and said, "You are really honest. It can be said that this is Xue Lanlan's only blind date with praise so far.

Qiao Ping smiled innocently, and then asked, "By the way, you just said that you like to watch dramas, so do you have a favorite star or movie?" Or do you have a movie you'd like to watch recently? ”

"Yes, I want to watch "Nezha" recently." When Xue Lanlan said it, she seemed to sigh with emotion: "I have something to do when I go home these days, and then I missed the time to watch "Nezha" with my friends, so I recently wanted to take some time to watch it by myself." ”

Qiao Ping listened to Xue Lanlan's words, and hurriedly became excited: "I didn't watch it either, let's go and see how it goes, I'll have a treat!" ”

Xue Lanlan didn't expect the other party to be so active, she thought about it, she has been busy dealing with family affairs and the company recently, and she has indeed not gone to the movies for a while, if she can go to the movies, of course it would be the best.

"Yes, yes, but the film is AA system, otherwise forget it." Xue Lanlan said very strongly, Qiao Ping was stunned, but still nodded his head, and he said, "Okay, then meet here at this time next Friday?" ”

"Okay, I'll see you then." Xue Lanlan exhaled and got up directly to pick up her bag and leave, but at this time, Qiao Ping stopped her again.

"That, Xue Lanlan." Qiao Ping paused and said directly, "Can I ask you a question?" ”

Xue Lanlan shrugged her shoulders and motioned for the other party to ask directly.

"Why do you want AA, a movie ticket is not expensive, wouldn't it be better to have a boy pay for you?" Qiao Ping asked cautiously, he looked at Xue Lanlan quietly, waiting for her to speak.

Xue Lanlan didn't expect him to ask like this, she said directly: "It's nothing, I just think it's not easy for all of us to make money, although I also know that this amount of money is not big, but I'm not your girlfriend, and I don't want to be greedy for this to take you cheap, and I don't take it for granted that I can afford to let a strange man pay for me, I can afford to support myself, and I can also pay for what I want." ”

Qiao Ping looked at Xue Lanlan and said with emotion: "You are really a cool person and very independent. ”

Xue Lanlan smiled, said "thank you for the compliment" and left the café.

As soon as she came out of the café, she immediately called Du Peng non-stop, I don't know why, whenever she wanted to share something, the first person she remembered was Du Peng.

The phone rang after the "beep", Du Peng's voice was the same as always, he said: "Hello, Xue Lanlan, the blind date is over, right?" ”

"Well, it's over, and overall it's pretty good." Xue Lanlan paused and said, "He asked me to watch a movie next Friday." ”

"Or is it the time?"

"Yes." Xue Lanlan walked around the ends of her hair as she spoke, and she paused, "What do you think?" ”

"If you can see the wedding hall with the right eyes and the other party treats you very well, then I will complete the task." Du Peng's voice came over one by one, making Xue Lanlan feel very uncomfortable.

"Well, I won't tell you, the car I'm waiting for is here, and the rest will go home and say!" Xue Lanlan exhaled as she spoke, she hung up the phone directly, and followed the crowd to the bus.

She stood in the car, holding the handlebar with one hand and looking at the scenery slowly passing by the window, at this moment, she couldn't tell whether she cared about Du Peng's rigidity or what she was expecting.

It's just that this inexplicable sadness made her feel difficult to adapt, and the bus gradually drifted away, and finally disappeared into the twilight......

On the morning of the weekend, Xue Lanlan rarely got up early, she yawned, tidied up her makeup a little, and then changed into a set of black dresses, and carried the LV bag she had been thinking about for a long time.

"How?" Xue Lanlan wore maple leaf lipstick and carried an LV bag, and stood in front of Du Peng in a rare domineering manner and asked, "Is there a queen's style?" ”

"Nope." Du Peng replied honestly: "Queens all have to wear crowns!"

"......" Xue Lanlan also felt that there was no one in the face of Du Peng's answer, although she also knew that Du Peng couldn't comment on anything every time, but sometimes she couldn't help but treat him as a human being, ask his opinions, and ask him what he thought.

Of course, every time Du Peng disappoints her, it is really more terrible than straight male cancer!

Xue Lanlan was wearing high heels, and when she was about to go out, Du Peng behind her directly added: "Although you don't have the demeanor of a queen, Xue Lanlan, you are still very beautiful today." ”

"Thank you." Xue Lanlan was slightly surprised, but she still replied with a good feeling of thanks, and after she finished speaking, she left the house with the Ejiao bag in one hand and the bag in the other.

This time Xue Lanlan is going to the home of the previous delivery director, she still has some respect for the previous delivery director, although in the company she climbed to the position of team leader and hard work, but she, the delivery director, also helped her.

Especially compared with Jiang Yiyi, the previous launch director is really high and low immediately!

Xue Lanlan took a breath, and then walked to the home of the previous director of delivery according to the address, this is a not new community, some distance from the company, but the surrounding environment is not bad.

Xue Lanlan followed the road and quickly found the door number of the previous delivery director.

"Ding-dong, ding-dong." Xue Lanlan knocked on the door, and it was probably a long time before there was a response from the other end of the door, and the other party said, "Who?" ”

"Director, it's me, Xue Lanlan." Xue Lanlan had greeted the other party before she came, and at this time, Xue Lanlan saw the door open and the director's figure revealed.

Probably because of pregnancy, the other party's face and figure looked a little bloated, and even the body odor became heavier.

"Long time no see." The previous delivery director was surnamed Lin, and she turned sideways slightly and said, "Lan Lan, come in!" ”

When Xue Lanlan nodded and followed Director Lin into the room, she realized that this room was very messy and dirty, and it didn't look like a room for pregnant women at all.

Xue Lanlan's eyes swept over the room lightly, and Director Lin seemed to realize something at this time, and quickly explained: "The room is a bit messy, don't care." ”

"It's fine." Xue Lanlan didn't dismantle the desk, she followed Director Lin and walked in, and she saw at a glance that the kitchen in the room was full of takeaway bags.

Xue Lanlan frowned slightly, how could she let a pregnant woman eat takeout all the time? You must know that the average pregnant woman is the existence of the baby in the family, even if it is not good, it will not be reduced to the extent of eating takeout.

And just looking at the degree of takeout, no matter how you look at it, it looks like you have eaten it for several days.

Director Lin also saw that Xue Lanlan had been looking at the kitchen from time to time, and hurriedly said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, my husband has been on a business trip in the past few days, so I've been eating takeout these days, and I'm too lazy to cook, the main thing is that my body is very tired, and I can't be too tired at all." ”

Xue Lanlan knows that pregnant women have been in poor health, and they are accompanied by morning sickness, pregnancy reactions, edema, etc., which are actually very sinful, and on this basis, they have to cook, wash and clean up the housework, which is too much! Xue Lanlan thought so in her heart, put Dong'e Ejiao aside, and asked, "He is on a business trip, what about his family?" What about your family? "It's too much to put a pregnant woman in a garbage dump like this!

Director Lin was stunned by Xue Lanlan's question, and she was bored for a few seconds before replying: "My family and his family have things to do during the day, and they can only come to take care of me at night, but I can't always trouble my family, after all, they also have jobs." ”

Having said that, Xue Lanlan always felt that something was strange, and when she was silent, Director Lin immediately came over and asked, "By the way, how are you doing lately?" How did you get along with the new director? ”

"I've been fine lately, and the new director is okay, by the way......" Xue Lanlan said and picked up Dong'e Ejiao beside her, put it in front of Director Lin and said: "I went home a few days ago, I have a good Dong'e Ejiao at home, I also asked the doctor before buying, they said that pregnant women can eat Ejiao, so I bought some for you." ”

"I'm really bothering you." Director Lin said and took Ejiao, with a little joy in his pale eyebrows.

Xue Lanlan looked at Director Lin at this moment and couldn't imagine her image a few months ago, in Xue Lanlan's memory, Director Lin has always been a very strong woman, she dresses very much, she wears lipstick is all Chanel red, and she is full of aura every time she negotiates.

And now, she is like a little woman, and her original arrogant aura has also been swept away.

Was it life or a pregnancy that made her like this?

Xue Lanlan thought of this, and paused: "By the way, Director Lin, do you have tea here?" I'm a little thirsty. ”

"Yes, yes, yes, it's in the kitchen, you look at me, I see you're happy, you forgot to pour tea." Director Lin said that he was about to get up and pour tea for Xue Lanlan, but before she could get up in this position, she sat back because of lack of strength.

Xue Lanlan saw that Director Lin had difficulty getting up, so she took the initiative to pick up the water cup and said, "I'll pour the water myself, just tell me where it is." ”

"It's in the kitchen, then I'm sorry for you, Lanlan." Director Lin said sorry, she sat at the table and was slightly embarrassed, Xue Lanlan smiled and didn't say anything.

She stood up and picked up the water glass, and went directly into the kitchen alone, before Xue Lanlan only looked inside the kitchen and knew that the kitchen was very messy, but when she really went in and saw it, she was speechless in her heart.

How do you describe the scene in front of you? Originally, the marble floor was full of dark blue unidentified juice, and then several large take-out bags were full of stuffed things, insects and flies could be vaguely seen, dishes and chopsticks were piled up in the pool, and on the stove on the other side were some dirty pots that had not been washed.

And the water dispenser that Xue Lanlan is looking for is at the innermost part of the kitchen, which means that if she wants to walk over, she must cross these layers of obstacles.

Xue Lanlan took a breath and immediately covered her nose and walked to the water dispenser, the reason why she pinched her nose was because of the rotten smell of leftovers in the kitchen.

Rancid!

Xue Lanlan quickly finished receiving the water at the fastest speed in her life, and when she walked out, she stumbled and accidentally tripped over a garbage bag.

The garbage bag swayed and fell to the ground, and a puddle of unknown urine yellow liquid and a few vegetable leaves fell out at once, and the smell directly filled the tip of Xue Lanlan's nose in an instant, causing her to turn to her stomach.

"Vomit ......" Xue Lanlan couldn't help it, she rushed out of the kitchen directly, ran into the toilet and retched, and her excessive reaction also scared Director Lin.

Director Lin hurriedly stood up tremblingly and walked over and asked, "Lan Lan, what's wrong with you?" ”

"Director Lin, Director Lin, I, I'm fine." Xue Lanlan hurriedly waved her hand to show that it was okay, she vomited for a while, Xue Lanlan felt a little more comfortable in her stomach and intestines, she exhaled, then washed her hands, rinsed her mouth with water by the way, and came out of the bathroom.

"Lan Lan, are you really okay?" Director Lin saw Xue Lanlan come out, his face was fine, and then he exhaled.

Xue Lanlan felt uncomfortable at the thought of being disgusted to retching because the kitchen was not clean, and she was like this, not to mention Director Lin, who was pregnant.

"I'm fine, I just accidentally soiled the kitchen floor, or I'll clean up and leave!"

"It's so embarrassing, you're a guest, how can you clean up the house, wait for me to clean up later, or my family will come in the evening!"

If Director Lin's family really had the heart to clean up, it wouldn't pile up so much, Xue Lanlan thought so in her heart, but she still responded on her face: "Don't be so polite, and I got dirty, I will definitely be worried when I go home like this, Director, you are pregnant now and you are not feeling well, it is better for you to rest first, I will clean up and come back soon." ”

Xue Lanlan said and went directly into the kitchen again, she covered her nose with one hand with her sleeve, then did a simple classification, separated the dry garbage, and then began to scrub the floor with disinfectant and dish soap, and the thick smell of disinfectant and the lemon smell of dish soap instantly filled the kitchen.

Xue Lanlan quickly got the dishes and chopsticks and so on, she took the garbage downstairs with a slippery ride, originally Xue Lanlan planned to throw away the garbage when she left, but the smell was too sour, she couldn't bear it for a moment.

Xue Lanlan only noticed that the ordered food was written on each takeaway package bag after throwing away the garbage, and Xue Lanlan noticed that these were single packages.

In other words, these are all eaten by Director Lin alone, and these takeaways seem to have been stored for about a week, Xue Lanlan walked upstairs while thinking, she didn't know what was wrong, and inexplicably made a bold guess.

That is, Director Lin is now pregnant and has no one to take care of her, and her family members come to visit her every once in a while for about a week.

Thinking of this, Xue Lanlan felt a little pity and helplessness in her heart, she thought about it and re-entered Director Lin's house, ready to say goodbye, she said: "Director Lin, the kitchen has been cleaned up, and I have also taken out the garbage, it is quite late now, there are still people waiting for me at home, I have to go back first." ”

"Okay, be careful on the road, I won't send you off, remember to call me when you get home." Director Lin saw that Xue Lanlan was leaving, so he didn't say anything, but lightly instructed a few words, "Thank you Ejiao, and you also worked hard to clean the kitchen." ”

"It's just a small thing, don't take it personally." After Xue Lanlan finished speaking, she directly took her bag out of Director Lin's house, she looked at the time, exhaled and took a taxi home.

On the way home, she looked out the window, and the appearance of Director Lin's home kept popping up in her mind, the messy environment, the unpleasant smell, and Director Lin's tired eyes.

I don't know why, the more she sees the scene of the married people around her, the more afraid she is of getting married, as if once she gets married and pregnant, her life will go downhill from now on.

Xue Lanlan's expression finally came back to her senses when she got home, when she returned home, Du Peng had just finished cleaning the room, he stood in the backlight, holding a folded towel in his hand, and said calmly: "Xue Lanlan, you are home." ”

"Hmm." After Xue Lanlan responded listlessly, she lay down on the sofa.

Du Peng ignored her, but put the towels neatly in the cabinet and went to the kitchen.

Xue Lanlan looked at Du Peng's busy figure, and she couldn't help but think that it seemed that since Du Peng came, her living environment had been soaring, the floor was always spotless, and there were always clean towels in the cupboard.

Just when Xue Lanlan was in a daze, Du Peng put a glass of passion fruit juice in front of her, and Du Peng said: "Passion fruit honey water can relieve fatigue." ”

"Thank you." Xue Lanlan habitually got up and thanked her, took two sips of passion fruit honey water, and the faint fragrance echoed between her lips and teeth, Xue Lanlan was relieved to lie down again after taking two sips.

It was only when she lay down on the ground this time that she felt her head being held up, and the next second, she was placed on a soft object, Xue Lanlan raised her eyelids, and then found that it was Du Peng who put her head on her knees.

This...... Is this the legendary knee pillow? Xue Lanlan's brain froze for a few seconds and gradually came back to her senses, she paused and said, "I always thought that things like knee pillows were done by girls for boys. ”

"yes, I'm just asking if this will ease human fatigue." Du Peng said and looked at Xue Lanlan and said, "Isn't it going well to see your friends today?" ”

"No, I just think it's a little scary." Xue Lanlan seemed to recall something, and said lightly: "When we were together in the past, she always bought the most expensive skin care products, used the best things, did things vigorously, and the house was always clean, but now she is like a loser after pregnancy." ”

"So you're scared of getting married?" Du Peng said lightly: "Everyone has a different fate and different choices, some people can get married, get pregnant, and work is well allocated, and some people want to do everything for one direction, it depends on you." ”

"I don't think it's up to me, you see I don't want to get married now, how many people urge me to find a partner to marry." Xue Lanlan said with a little dissatisfaction.

"That's because you haven't tried this path, you haven't dated someone, you can't know if you're happy or single in the future." Du Peng's faint words lingered in Xue Lanlan's heart.

"It's not like I haven't tried...... Xue Lanlan didn't know why, and at that moment remembered Jiang Yi's face, she used to be a person who was passionate and looking forward to marriage.

"Don't think about it, get a good rest first, don't forget that you still have a date on Friday, and other people's lives don't represent your future." Du Peng coaxed Xue Lanlan, put his two hands on Xue Lanlan's temples, and he gently rubbed Xue Lanlan's sun.

The quiet afternoon was a little warm, the cicada chirping was like a lullaby, and Xue Lanlan didn't know if it was because she was too tired or because of Du Peng's massage, she actually fell asleep in a daze.

Du Peng looked at Xue Lanlan who made a soft sound not long after, the shallow light reflected on Xue Lanlan's face, she was like a little milk cat when she slept, curled up, her fine hair was brushed to the side, her eyes were closed, and her delicate facial features were like a doll.

Du Peng guarded her quietly like this, looking at her, he didn't know how long he had been staring at Xue Lanlan like this, and he didn't know which program he had a problem with, so he gently helped her comb all the little broken hair aside, and then he leaned over slightly and looked at the girl lying on his lap.

He whispered in her ear, "Good night, Xue Lanlan." ”

Only Xue Lanlan's faint muttering echoed him, and Du Peng leaned motionless on the sofa after saying goodnight, allowing the other party to turn his knees over and over as pillows.

In the quiet afternoon, in the spotless room, the tangled hostess ...... All this was imprinted in Du Peng's mind like a dream, he didn't know when his mission would end, and he didn't know what Xue Lanlan would do with the boy named Qiao Ping next Friday.

But at this moment, he looked at Xue Lanlan who was so quiet, and he was inexplicably reluctant in his heart, this kind of feeling felt strange and tricky to him.

Just like a new type of virus, no matter how many times he maintains, upgrades and anti-virus can't deal with it, Du Peng closed his eyes slightly and fell into a state of power-saving mode.

The only thing he can do now is to put away his heart and help Xue Lanlan fall in love as soon as possible.
