Chapter 8 His Rental Cottage

It seems that liking someone always needs to be confirmed by something. For example, when you were a student, a classmate told you a complicated math problem, and you still didn't understand it after telling it several times, so you thought he would be impatient, but when you looked up, you found that he just smiled very gently. For example, when you pass by the basketball court, you see someone score a beautiful three-pointer and then turn around and wave at you and ask you, "Is my brother handsome!" "It's obviously very stupid and secondary, but that picture can be engraved in my mind and remembered for many years.

Likes are usually piled up little by little in daily life, but there is always a moment that people call heartbeat. For Shen Yuanyuan, when Zhou Minggao stood up to protect Zeng Yi yesterday, it was the heart-warming moment that belonged to her.

Today, Friday, after work, Zhou Minggao did not go directly to the bus stop as usual, but stopped by the snack truck on the boulevard and bought a snack. Shen Yuanqian thought that the next time they met would be two days later, and if he wanted to stay with him for a while longer, he also bought one, and then naturally waited with him.

"If you live in a rented house by yourself, you usually cook your own food, right?" Shen Yuanxuan casually said a topic.

"Hmm. If you're too lazy to make it, you'll cook some somen noodles or buy some of these snacks to take home. ”

Shen let out an "oh". "I'm often too lazy to cook, it's too much trouble to cook."

"It's a hassle. But my cooking is quite delicious, and I have the opportunity to cook it for you. ”

Thinking that he was just saying a kind word, Shen Yuanyuan didn't think much about it and nodded. Unexpectedly, Zhou Minggao immediately asked, "Then are you free tomorrow?" ”

"Huh? Have free time. I don't usually have much to do on the weekends. ”

"Then tomorrow, I'll send you my address, and we'll have lunch together tomorrow."

At this time, the stall owner had already prepared two snacks. Shen Yuanyu took his share and said stiffly, "Okay." She felt that her brain was a little confused, and as soon as she said goodbye to Zhou Minggao, she immediately sent a message to Xiao Ranran about it.

"No, Shen Yuan, you're making progress too fast, you're going to go to someone's house for dinner."

Shen replied, "I'm also very confused, he suddenly invited me, does he like me too?" ”

"Nonsense, of course. The last time he saw that you were in a bad mood and asked you for dinner, it means that he wants to chase you, otherwise what is he doing, doing charity? ”

Shen Yuanyu could almost think of Xiao Ranran's expression when he replied to the message, and couldn't help but smile. "But I still don't think it's right, I've only known each other for less than a month, what does he like about me."

"I am not surprised that boys often say they like me when they see me for the first time, so what are you surprised about."

"That's because you're good-looking." Shen Yuan replied, "I'm not the kind of face that can make people fall in love at first sight." ”

"I've said it many times, you're really good-looking. Few guys approach you because you're too boring, they think you're cold and hard to chase. Xiao Ranran said again, "But jokes are jokes, I still have to remind you to be careful with him." After all, you don't know him, and he is older than you, so it is inevitable that your heart will calculate you more, but don't cry to me when you have a big heart now and suffer a loss in the future. ”

Shen Yuanyuan had already arrived at the door of the house at this time, and she replied to Xiao Ranran, "I know, don't worry." "I put my phone in my pocket. Then he took out the key with a snack in one hand and opened the door with the other. Guagua immediately ran over, but the target was the food in Shen Yuanyu's hand, not herself. Shen Yuanxuan held the food high, "Don't think about it, no way." ”

It didn't take long for Zhou Minggao to send her the address.

Shen Yuan saw that the address had a two-second distraction.

She remembered that He Youxin had lived in that neighborhood before.

At that time, she was learning guitar at the nearby piano shop, and often met him, and every time He Youxin would take the initiative to stop her, and then she would stand on the side of the road with the guitar on her back and chat with him for a while. After her father was diagnosed with cancer, she never went to the piano shop again, and the opportunity to talk to He Youxin gradually decreased. As soon as he graduated from high school, He Youxin went abroad, and he didn't even participate in the later group photo of the whole school's teachers and students. At that time, she regretted it for a while.

Maybe that's the fate between people. Some people have known each other for a long time, had a crush on them for a long time, made certain appointments, and still missed them in the end. And some couples who have known each other for a long time and started to fall in love can really go through their lives. Love is inherently a difficult problem, it is not unsolvable, every answer can be right or wrong.

Shen Yuanxuan didn't have insomnia this night, she slept well and had no dreams all night. The next day, she got up early to clean up the house, then put on a light makeup, and prepared to set off to find Zhou Minggao. She messaged him and asked him if he needed any ingredients from her, and he said he had prepared them and she would be able to get there.

Zhou Minggao lives in a neighborhood very close to his school, presumably for the convenience of classes. I got off the bus from his university station, and after walking half a stop further, I arrived at the east gate of the community. Shen Yuanyuan passed by the location of the piano shop, and saw that it had been transformed into a restaurant, and he didn't know if the piano shop had closed down or moved. She found the building according to the address given by Zhou Minggao, and after taking the elevator to the ninth floor, she knocked on the No. 1 door.

Zhou Minggao quickly came out and opened the door. He said, "It's a bit of a mess in the room, don't mind." ”

Shen Yuan entered the house while responding, and he didn't feel that there was any chaos. Although I can see that the things are not very carefully arranged, there are few things, so they look neat.

"Wait, do you need my help?" She asked.

"No, but if you're really embarrassed, you can help me clean up my computer desk."

"I'm sorry." Shen Yuanyuan deliberately joked, "It turns out that you came to me to find someone to clean up the house." ”

"The meals I prepared are very rich, and you don't lose money on this hourly work."

After chatting a few more words, Zhou Minggao went to the kitchen to clean up the ingredients, and Shen Yuanyuan went into his bedroom to clean up the computer desk that was really messy. She saw a stack of books on the table, and picked up one casually, which read: Materials Chemistry 1601 Zhou Minggao.

His handwriting is very good-looking, and Shen Yuanxuan couldn't help but secretly take a picture. Maybe after the shooting, she felt that there were a pair of eyes staring at her. Looking left and right, she found the source of the "gaze" - there was a very delicate embroidery of cranes hanging on the wall, and the cranes were very agile, as if they were looking at her. This embroidery didn't match anything else in the house, so she became curious, and went to the kitchen to ask Zhou Minggao, "Did you buy that embroidery?" It's pretty good. ”

"No, it was given to me by an old woman when I visited the temple in the year I first came here to go to college." He said, "The old woman said I had a relationship with the crane. ”

"Oh. It seems that your name is also related to cranes. After saying that, Shen Yuanyu remembered the old woman she met a while ago, but she felt that it was a little strange to say this now as if she was deliberately looking for a reason to get closer to him, so she swallowed her words back.

Later that day, Zhou Minggao really cooked a very hearty meal, his cooking skills were not particularly good, but surprisingly with Shen Yuan's appetite, she couldn't help but praise it several times. They also watched a movie together, which Zhou Minggao proposed to watch, and the name of the movie was "The Night the Comet Commet". Shen Yuanyuan watched this movie when he was in high school, but he still accompanied Zhou Minggao to watch it again.

The cottage rented by Zhou Minggao is not big, but it can be regarded as a sparrow, although it is small, it has all kinds of organs, and it feels like "home". Shen thought that maybe she should also tidy up her home in a different way, now that it was just a tidy residence, she wanted to make it more like home.
