Chapter 20 Waiting for a reply
Because of insomnia last night, Zhong Yahan tossed and turned in bed until five o'clock in the morning before falling asleep, and slept in a daze until twelve o'clock at noon before waking up.
Xie Yingyao happily went out early in the morning to attend the party, Zhou Ningxin's dance training class was the busiest time on the weekend, she went to teach early, and Yin Huiyun also went out to work early because of the filming activities.
The apartment was empty except for Zhong Yahan, she crawled out of bed drowsily, rubbed her tired eyes, and walked to the bathroom with flirtatious steps.
People really can't stay up late, and if they stay up late, they will have panda eyes.
When Zhong Yahan brushed her teeth and washed her face, she saw two big dark circles on her face, and she looked like a soulless panda before she was conscious.
She rarely goes out on weekends, and often chooses to eat instant noodles, except for occasionally being pulled out by Xie Yingyao, who also spends the weekend, to go shopping and eat.
But Xie Yingyao was not here today, the whole apartment was empty, and she didn't even have anyone to talk to.
In the gap between cooking instant noodles, she opened the WeChat of her mobile phone to see if there was any news that made her look forward to it.
The result was that to her disappointment, the new WeChat messages were empty.
After eating instant noodles, she plucked up the courage to type a line in the chat box of the hand-painted avatar: "Are you free tonight, do you want to eat together?" ”
She hesitated, then pressed the send button ruthlessly.
After three minutes, she regretted it a little and wanted to withdraw, but she couldn't.
She was too nervous to look at it again, and threw her phone on the table, ready to clean up to ease her inner turmoil, because she didn't dare to imagine what he would reply.
Five minutes later, the phone "ding", she quickly ran over and saw an unread message on the locked phone screen.
She opened it ecstatically, and the result was that someone in the high school classmates group sent a red envelope for everyone to grab, and she was so angry that she almost quit the group.
She set up all WeChat groups to message do not disturb, threw down her phone and continued to clean.
After another twenty minutes, there was another message on the mobile phone, Zhong Yahan put down the work in her hand and hurriedly came over to look at the mobile phone, and the result was the advertising information of a certain APP, she was so angry that she stomped her feet, there was a lot of irrelevant information at the critical time.
After that, the phone didn't receive any message prompts, Zhong Yahan's heart was half cold, she decided not to wait any longer, cleaned the apartment carefully, and then sat in front of the computer to busy her design drawings.
"Love is important, bread is important, let's work hard." She comforted herself with self-talk.
An hour passed, Zhong Yahan no longer deliberately waited for information, and concentrated on drawing the design.
At this time, the mobile phone in her jacket pocket suddenly rang, she took out her mobile phone nervously, and was struggling with what to say in the first sentence, but after a closer look, the caller was her father, and she sighed lightly and picked up the phone.
"Xiaohan, are you busy?" On the other end of the line was my father's kind voice.
"I'm drawing."
"Just rest well on the weekend, don't be too tired, and the weather is going to get cold, you have to wear thicker clothes, you know?" His father's series of exhortations made Zhong Yahan's heart feel a little warm.
"Mmmm, I know, Dad, you also have to pay more attention to your body and pay more attention to safety at work."
"Don't worry, I'll protect myself, by the way, I heard from your Uncle De a few days ago that you have a boyfriend?" The father finally revealed the true purpose of the call.
"Dad, you misunderstood, I have already told Uncle De, he is not my boyfriend, he is my classmate." Zhong Yahan explained helplessly.
"Dad is not against you falling in love, he just wants to tell you, look at people, you are such a simple girl, you must protect yourself, don't let men be deceived." All kinds of advice that my father was not at ease.
"Dad, I know, I still have to draw, don't talk about it." Zhong Yahan really didn't want to listen to her father's chatter anymore, and was eager to hang up the phone.
"Okay, then I won't bother you, but in the end, Dad still has to tell you, if you have a boyfriend, you must bring it back to see me and your mother during the Chinese New Year, and we will help you see it."
"Dad, don't talk about it, hang up." Zhong Yahan hung up the phone and breathed a sigh of relief.
Her father's words made her feel scared, she was strictly disciplined by her parents since she was a child, and now she even has to take care of her finding a partner, which is really breathless.
The moment Zhong Yahan hung up the phone, she finally saw Jiang Jinrui's reply, she calmed down her nervousness, opened it tremblingly, and the message read: "I have something to go to the field for two days, and I will make a date when I come back!" ”
She breathed a sigh of relief, his tone was not cold, indicating that he didn't mean to alienate her, but after thinking about it, he was still a little disappointed, because he didn't tell her in advance that he was going to go to another place for two days.
"Okay, I'll see you when you come back." Zhong Yahan reluctantly replied to the past.
Putting down her phone, she didn't have the heart to draw anymore and decided to go out for a walk, it was too boring to stay in the apartment.
She came to Starbucks with a book, ordered a Frappuccino, and was ready to spend time there.
Just as she was reading carefully, a man sat down in the seat across her table with a cup of coffee, and she looked up to see Zhang Tianyi, whom she hadn't seen for two years.
"I saw your back very familiar just now, and when I got closer, I didn't expect it to be you, what a coincidence." Zhang Tianyi said excitedly.
"What a coincidence, why are you here?" Zhong Yahan smiled politely at him.
"I came here to meet the customer, and I saw you as soon as the customer left, I haven't seen you for two years, are you okay?" Although Zhang Tianyi has been rejected by Zhong Yahan countless times before, his liking for her has not diminished, and he feels very happy to meet her again.
"Mm-hmm, that's good, what about you?"
"I'm also very good, I gave up interior design after graduation and chose graphic design, and now I am developing well in a small company, and I may move to a big company after a while." Zhang Tianyi looked at her a little nervously
"Hehe, come on." Zhong Yahan replied to him briefly, and then looked down at the book again.
"That's... Jiang Jinrui is back, do you know? Zhang Tianyi didn't know that Zhong Yahan and Jiang Jinrui had reunited.
"I know, I've been in touch with him lately."
"Hehe, I thought you didn't know, as soon as that kid returned to China, he used my name to submit the painting he sketched in Qinghu at that time, and that painting was your back, I heard that the painting also won an award, I really can't figure out why he did it." Zhang Tianyi accidentally told a secret.
When Zhong Yahan heard this, his eyes widened in shock, and he asked him with a trembling body, "What did you say?" He painted the painting when Qinghu was sketching? ”
