Chapter 217: Mustard

"Who are you looking for?"

"Favorite."

"She's not here."

“……”

"Don't you have what you want to say?"

"Yes, I miss her." Xu Huaisheng rubbed his eyebrows with one finger, and his expression could not hide his tiredness. He stood tall at the door, the afterglow of the setting sun was obliquely refracted on him, his body seemed to be plated with a layer of golden light, and his eyes looked at Zhong Yi very seriously: "Please help me tell her, I miss her." Also, I've been plotting against her for a long time, and I want to invite her to dinner. ”

Zhong thought that if she was so reserved at the time, would he persist in stalking or choose to give up stupidly.

But many things are bound to happen, and there will be no "ifs" and "ifs".

"I thought he would ask for your forgiveness at length, you were reserved, but I was too confident in what I knew about you! In the future, the small couple will quarrel and make unpleasant noise, don't ask me for my opinion frequently! Xin Rui helplessly held her forehead and sighed.

Things are indeed developing too fast, and his dinner completely crushed Zhongyi's last defensive line, and he chose to end this cold war without hesitation, and the two reconciled as before.

Maybe it's because of his sentence "I miss you", or maybe Zhong Yi didn't get angry with him, but he couldn't pull his face, and he couldn't talk about hating him like an enemy to him.

"I still love him." She is like Xin Rui on the other end of the video, and she is also like self-hypnosis, she still loves him, so she will not hesitate to end this cold war that lasted for half a month.

If it weren't for the fact that both parties were too busy with work to take a break, it might not have taken so long at all.

"Yes, you love him, and he loves you." Xin Rui smiled suddenly, looking at Zhongyi's appearance of being completely immersed in love and unable to extricate himself, as if he saw his original other self. She looked sad and complained: "I won't tell you first, the insomniac old aunt is still busy rushing to catch up with the manuscript, this time it's big news, whether it can be a big fire depends on my performance tonight." ”

I hung up the video call and sat in front of the computer for a while before slowly getting up to tidy up the clutter on the desktop and throwing all the discarded photos into the trash.

went to the kitchen and poured a glass of water, the door of Lin Xixi's room was opened, she was wearing loose pajamas, looking at Zhong Yi with sleepy eyes, yawning, and asked, "It's late at night, Zhong Yi still hasn't slept yet?" ”

"Just sleep." Zhong Yi raised the water glass in his hand, added a little ice, and felt the slightest coolness through the glass with his fingertips, "Do you want to drink some water?" ”

Lin Xixi shook his head, as if he had thought of something again, and said, "I forgot to tell you, I have already found a house, and it is close to the place where I work, and I will move out in a few days." ”

"It's good, let me know when you move out, and I'll help you move."

Lin Xixi thought that she was not happy that she proposed to move out at this time, and hurriedly explained: "I have quit my job in the coffee shop, and my new job is to work in an Internet company, which is remote from the city center, and it is too tossy to reverse back and forth, I am afraid of disturbing you." ”

"It's getting late, you go to bed." Zhong Yi smiled softly, raised the hand holding the water glass, put his lips against the rim of the glass, and took a small sip.

Cold war with Xu Huaisheng and then reconciliation, as far as Zhong Yi is concerned, it is just a short moment, which cannot affect her life at all, and it can't even set off any waves.

As usual, when she has free time, she will go to Z University to have lunch with Yasuki, she drinks light pork rib soup, and Anshu eats meals from the cafeteria. If she doesn't have time to go, An Shu will wait for her in the coffee shop downstairs of the magazine with a thermos box.

was bumped into by her colleagues several times in a row, and they all asked her with a smile if the handsome boy was her boyfriend? Zhong Yi shook his head and said no, but his colleague didn't believe it, "I will send you pork rib soup regularly every day, you see that your complexion is much better than before, and you are so considerate and say that you are not a boyfriend." ”

Zhongyi had to smile and not speak, but her colleagues mistakenly thought that there was a deeper meaning, and her eyes were mixed with ambiguity and envy when she looked at her every day.

This "misunderstanding" lasted until Xu Huaisheng came to pick her up from work, and a group of people walked out of the building and were eagerly talking about the dinner party to be held. She rarely participates in the dinner party of her colleagues, and after work, she lies down directly when she gets home, and she is tired enough when she works, so she cherishes the little freedom when she gets off work.

She didn't expect Xu Huaisheng to come to pick her up from work, watching him walk through the crowd and walking towards her unhurriedly, Zhong Yi was momentarily stunned for a few seconds, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.

It looked like a shy little woman, "Didn't you say you would work overtime tonight?" ”

"It's canceled temporarily, where do you want to eat? Or do you go home and do it yourself? Xu Huaisheng wore a well-tailored black suit, which set off his tall figure a little more handsome and charming. He smiled gently, and his doting tone was already revealed between the lines.

The colleagues in the same company watched this scene dumbfounded, all confused. In the end, he worked in a magazine, and he had never seen any bloody gossip, but he reacted quickly, and his ambiguous eyes fell on Zhong Yi and Xu Huaisheng.

"Now I can go to the supermarket and buy some ingredients, so let's make curry rice for dinner." Zhong Yi ignored the ambiguous gazes cast around him, and took the initiative to take Xu Huaisheng's hand, but was tightly held in the palm of his hand by his big palm.

After going to the supermarket to buy the ingredients to be used in the curry, I went directly back to Xu Huaisheng's apartment. As soon as he entered the door, Xu Huaisheng took off his coat, pulled the sleeves of his shirt, and walked into the kitchen.

In fact, her favorite cooking skills are not as good as Xu Huaisheng's, so the main task of dinner is all handed over to him, and she is only responsible for playing as a taste evaluator.

Zhongyi enjoys the time when he is busy in the kitchen with Xu Huaisheng, like an old husband and wife for many years, and the picture is harmonious and warm. Xin Rui said to her with great disdain, "I can't wait to marry Xu Huaisheng so much, why don't you propose to him." ”

The doorbell rang suddenly, and Zhong Yi glanced at the busy figure in the kitchen and ran to open the door. Seeing the person outside the door, Zhongyi's originally smiling face collapsed instantly.

Fortunately, she had a good upbringing, and she didn't act so uncomfortable, but she looked a little embarrassed, and said bluntly: "Gu Wei, why are you here?" ”

Gu Wei is still the same as before, even after ten or twenty years. She smiled elegantly, didn't care about Zhongyi's cold attitude, and said unabashedly: "Of course I'm here to find Ah Sheng to drink, I knew you were here, so I brought an extra bottle of wine." ”

Xu Huaisheng vaguely heard the movement coming from the entrance, walked out of the kitchen with the curry rice, and asked, "What's the matter, who is here?" ”

"Gu Wei." Zhong Yi leaned sideways to let her in, showing the demeanor of the hostess: "I cooked curry rice, do you want to eat it together?" ”

Gu Wei raised his eyebrows slightly, walked in with a bottle of red wine of unknown year, changed into slippers, and naturally walked to the table and put the red wine on the table.

At that time, Xu Huaisheng had already untied the apron tied around his waist, walked out of the kitchen, and was a little surprised when he saw Gu Wei, as if he liked to answer on his behalf, but he didn't hear it. He said, "Have you eaten, if you don't mind, let's eat some together." ”

Zhongyi took out three goblets from the locker, cleaned them, Xu Huaisheng unscrewed the cap, and poured a little into each of the three empty wine glasses. Zhongyi picked up the goblet, shook the liquid in the cup, and took a sip.

"Am I coming at the wrong time to disturb the world of the two of you." Gu Wei looked at the sumptuous and delicious dinner on the table and hooked the corners of his lips.

Zhong Yi was more or less dissatisfied with Gu Wei's sudden appearance at Xu Huaisheng's house, after all, they had a cold war because of her. She smiled slightly, politely and politely with her: "No, Ah Sheng has done a lot, and the two of them can't finish it anyway, you came just in time." ”

That dinner seemed to be peaceful, but only Zhong Yi understood that she still had a relationship between Xu Huaisheng and Gu Wei intermittently, and even the curry she had always loved was tasteless, and she would not eat it in the future.

After dinner, Gu Wei didn't stay too long and left quickly. Zhong was about to clean the dishes and chopsticks in the kitchen, and the sound of running water covered up the sound of Xu Huaisheng talking in the living room, until she finished cleaning up, turned off the faucet and walked out of the kitchen, and then asked, "What did you just say?" I didn't hear you. ”

Xu Huaisheng shook his head, then smiled lightly and said, "Don't leave tonight, can you stay here?" ”

Zhongyi also spent the night in Xu Huaisheng's house, she slept in the room, and he slept on the sofa in the living room. Hearing this, Zhong Yi thought for a moment and nodded: "Hmm." ”

She slept in his room as usual, and Xu Huaisheng slept on the sofa in the living room. Smelling the good smell on his body on the quilt, he loved to lose sleep for the first time.

When he got up early the next morning, Xu Huaisheng saw her heavy dark circles, frowned inadvertently, and asked her, "The bags under your eyes are so heavy, you didn't sleep well last night?" ”

"It's okay, I'll just go to the magazine office and make up for sleep." Zhong Yi didn't want to say that the reason for his insomnia was because of Gu Wei. She didn't want Xu Huaisheng to treat her as a girlfriend who loved to care, and she deliberately ignored those details.

Knowing that she didn't sleep well, when Xu Huaisheng made breakfast, he specially prepared a bento box for her to take with her when she went to work later. At that time, you don't have to go to another store for lunch, and you can take the opportunity to take a short rest.

Zhong Yi was so moved that she almost cried bitterly, this feeling was a hundred times stronger than the pork rib soup that An Shu prepared to send her nutritious at noon every day, probably because she was cared for by someone who loved her, and imperceptibly, an ordinary bento could also stir up a thousand waves in her heart.

When An Shu came to bring her the cooked pork rib soup, Zhong Yi had already eaten the bento prepared by Xu Huaisheng. She looked at An Shu with some embarrassment and crampedness, An Shu didn't say anything, silently put away the thermos box, and lowered her eyes and didn't know what she was thinking.

Zhong Yi occasionally goes to Z University to find Anshu, but lunch has changed from pork rib soup to canteen food, and she doesn't eat very well. She had been quietly keeping her stomach quiet, and once again she erupted in dissatisfaction.

The stomach attack was on the bus to Z Big, her aching forehead was cold sweat, and her face was horribly white. A good Samaritan called an ambulance and took her to the hospital.

The money Zhong Yi brought with her was only enough to pay the consultation fee, and she didn't know who contacted An Shu from her mobile phone address book and explained the cause and effect to him.

His expressionless face had a rare different emotion, which surrounded him deeply.
