Chapter 183: Dancing Companions
"Let's take it!"
Lin Xiaoshang held Ye Qi with one hand, let her rest on her body, covered her ears with her free other hand, and winked at her, that playful appearance made Ye Qi's nervous mood relax a lot. After hesitating for a moment, she answered the phone anyway.
"Ye Qi! Do you still know how to answer the phone? Do you know how many calls I made to you? I can't even count them myself? Where the hell are you now? What are you doing? Are you still angry about what happened in the morning? Isn't that your mistake? I'm not mad at you yet! Don't tell me you're drinking again, can you hear me? Why not answer? β
Before the mobile phone could be put to her ears, Ye Qi was startled by the roar on the other side of the phone and a series of questions, she even thought that she had accidentally turned on the hands-free, otherwise how could it be so loud, Lin Xiaosheng, who was covering her ears, was also stunned, and put down her hand in a daze, because she found that her action was meaningless at all.
Ye Qi was a little dazed, so that she knew that Li Lang was out of breath when she scolded, and she didn't listen to much, she only vaguely heard that this guy seemed to have made several phone calls, and she didn't answer, which led to this anger.
After this scolding finally had a chance to calm down, she put her phone to her ear and said, "I was listening to a song just now, but I didn't hear the phone ringing." β
"Listen to the song? What songs are so important to listen to? Can I leave my fiancΓ©'s phone unanswered? Do you know how worried I am about you? WeChat doesn't reply, phone calls don't answer, I thought you encountered something wrong. Did you know that it's dangerous for you to be a girl who doesn't have the strength to protect herself? No, I'm going to go back to you, walk away a little, and you'll just lose contact, so what's the deal? Li Lang said coldly, with a faint sense of majesty in that tone.
Ye Qi didn't pay attention to his condescending tone, but the content of his words made him anxious, "I don't need you to come over!" I have someone to accompany me. β
"Huh? What do you mean? Who can accompany you in my place? Li Lang shouted, asking loudly, he felt a strong uneasiness, as if something was about to be lost from him, he felt that he could not stay at home any longer, and he had to go and see.
"I'm living with my friend now, what are you doing here? It's not a boy, it's a girl, you don't have to come, I'm fine now. Ye Qi's voice also became cold, she leaned on Lin Xiaosheng's body, but she didn't dare to look at her, she just wanted to hang up the phone cleanly now and explain to Lin Xiaosheng.
"Girls? How do I know if what you say is true or false? Li Lang couldn't believe it at all, he only felt that his position had been shaken, when did he start to stop being Ye Qi's backbone? Shouldn't he be the only one in her heart?
Ye Qi just wanted to speak, but Lin Xiaoshang snatched the phone, "Hello, I am the friend Ye Qi said." β
Li Lang, who had already walked to the door and was about to hold the handle, was stunned, this soft and tactful voice shouldn't have come from a boy, right?
"I'm sorry, I just came here and haven't found a place to live yet, so I can only bother Kiki's house for a while, don't worry, when I rent a new house and settle down, I will move out immediately, and it won't disturb the lives of the two of you." Lin Xiaosheng's posture was very low, and her voice was naturally soft.
Li Lang stood at the door in a daze, began to hesitate, and then asked a ridiculous question, "You...... Really not a man? β
Lin Xiaoshang rolled her eyes, but her tone was still so gentle, "Of course not, if you don't believe me, I can take a selfie with Qiqi now and send it to you." I'm not only a girl, but also a big beauty, I'm afraid that Kiki won't want you to see me. As she spoke, Lin Xiaoshang glanced at Ye Qi.
Ye Qi paused for a moment, but quickly reacted and took the phone again, "Do you still want to come over?" Look at my big beautiful girlfriend! Well? β
Li Lang said: "What do you mean by this, who do you think of me, you have to care about this little thing?" β
"Then you're coming!" Ye Qi snorted coldly.
Li Lang was silent for a while, and his tone was calmer, "Okay, we are already engaged, and we will start a family together in the future, and we must trust each other." I was wrong just now, I shouldn't have doubted you, and I won't be in the future. Since your friend is in trouble, let's let her stay with you for the time being, and then come to me if you need anything, okay? β
Ye Qi gave Lin Xiaoshang a thumbs up, and Li Lang was not too embarrassed, he accepted it when he saw it, and said: "That's okay, I'll go back shopping with my friends, you go to bed early, good night." β
"Well, good night."
Hanging up the phone, Ye Qi let out a long sigh of relief, and looked at Lin Xiaosheng's gaze with a very complicated look, "I'm sorry I lied to you." That was my fiancΓ©. However, you are so powerful, if you replaced me, I guess there would be a quarrel just now. β
"Men are actually very stupid and naΓ―ve, and they try their best to protect the little self-esteem in their hearts, and to put it bluntly, they love face. If you tell him that he won't be happy to have someone else with you! As a man, of course, if you are the backbone of your woman's heart, otherwise it will be a shame. So, as long as you make him feel that you care about him and are afraid of him leaving, you can fully satisfy their little self-esteem. As long as you give enough face, where will I lose my temper with you? Lin Xiaoshang said with a smile.
"Aren't you angry? I lied to you, but I still want you to stay, and I don't want him to know I'm hurt. Ye Qi said in an almost pleading tone, if it weren't for the fact that she wasn't sure if Lin Xiaoshang was angry, she really wanted to hug this woman and leave her behind.
Lin Xiaoshang asked, "Afraid he's worried?" β
Ye Qi shook his head silently, with a little sadness in his expression. Seeing this, Lin Xiaoshang simply stopped talking, continued to support Ye Qi, and walked home.
Under the street lamp, the shadows of the two melted together, looking like the shadow of a person from a distance, regardless of each other, perfectly integrated, as the two gradually moved away, the shadows kept changing, but they were never separated.
Before you know it, you can already see the entrance of the community. Ye Qi, who had been silent, finally spoke, "I think I may need to calm down, I'm a little tired of this relationship." β
"I guess you don't want to be controlled, under the well-behaved appearance, there is a bohemian heart." Lin Xiaoshang quipped.
Ye Qi said: "What! He was too strict, and he used to think that it was a kind of care and protection, but once it went too far, it would make people feel that it was a kind of control in the name of love. I'm not a child. β
Lin Xiaoshang's face became a little cold, and said, "So you want to use me as a shield to block the shackles that your fiancΓ© will swing over at any time?" β
Ye Qi was a little panicked, she was really afraid that Lin Xiaoshang would lose her temper with herself because of this incident and leave, for her, Ye Qi always had an emotion that she couldn't let go, she didn't know what it was, but she didn't want her to leave in her heart.
"It's just to scare you, you're my queen dancer, at least until your feet are good, I still won't leave, and I still count on you to dance to my tunes!" A smile was like the sunshine of spring, instantly melting the frost on her face, Lin Xiaoshang smiled.
When Ye Qi heard this, she finally let go of the worries in her heart, and thought that she would be separated from Li Lang for a while, so that she could get rid of this passionate love that has always been stuck together for a while, pick up some alone time, and maybe she could be ready to officially form a happy family together.
Of course, all of this is just what Ye Qi thinks in his heart, and how things will develop is still unknown.
β¦β¦
In the middle of the night, Lin Xiaoshang dragged her tired body, pushed open the door, and looked at the furnishings in front of her in a daze, which was very different from her own home, after all, this was Ye Qi's home. She simply took a shower and entered the room, Ye Qi was curled up in the quilt and slept sweetly, her quiet sleeping face showed a beautiful silhouette under the moonlight outside the window.
Lin Xiaoshang watched blankly, and unconsciously got into the quilt and lay down beside Ye Qi. When she found herself so close to Ye Qi's face, she suddenly realized that she was going to sleep in the living room this morning, and the bed was made. She hesitated to get up, but when she saw Ye Qi's face, she decided to pretend that she didn't know anything and just go to sleep! In the early morning, the sun is still faint, soft as a veil, drifting towards the world.
Ye Qi, who was stuck in the mattress, turned over lazily, reached to the bedside table to press the annoying alarm clock, but felt that something seemed to be pressed on her arm, and it seemed to be blocked in front of her, she opened her eyes in a daze and saw a face that was also sleepy.
Before, when I woke up, all I saw were men's faces, but this was the first time I saw a woman in my bed, and Ye Qi felt very interesting. Lin Xiaoshang was a little furious when she was looked at by Ye Qi's slightly playful gaze, "What are you looking at?" Got eye droppings? β
Ye Qi smiled: "No, but there is me." β
"Poor mouth." Lin Xiaoshang gave Ye Qi a big roll of the eyes, and then got up, "Get up, lazy worm, it's time for you to go to work." β
Ye Qi pressed the alarm and looked at the time, buried her face in the pillow again, and muttered, "Let me squint for a while." Seeing this, Lin Xiaoshang went to wash up first, and when she changed her clothes and returned to the room, she heard Ye Qi's thin snoring. Lin Xiaoshang shook her head helplessly, stepped forward to sit by Ye Qi's window, and called softly: "Lazy worm, get up, go to work!" β
No response!
It's useless to say it, so you have to be rough, Lin Xiaoshang put her hands on Ye Qi's waist and scratched her fingers lightly. "Ahh Ye Qi, who was awakened in an instant, screamed, looked at Lin Xiaoshang complainingly, and hugged the pillow indignantly.
"Eh, it's still awkward, do you want to be deducted from your salary?" Lin Xiaoshang said, carefully picked up Ye Qi, looked at her injured foot, after yesterday's ice compress, the swelling has decreased a lot, but you still have to be careful to avoid secondary injury.
Ye Qi rubbed his swollen head and said, "Shall I ask for leave?" β
"If you tell me to take a leave of absence now, I'll kill you! Who do you think I'm getting up so early for? Lin Xiaoshang threatened viciously.
Ye Qi hurriedly shrank his head, obediently obeyed, and his drowsiness had already disappeared in this back-and-forth conversation.
This day seems to be a new beginning, at least for Ye Qi. The person who was supporting her to go downstairs cautiously at this moment was a little petite and thin, even younger than herself, and her face was beautiful and a little immature, but that serious energy was reassuring.
Day by day, Ye Qi has become accustomed to waiting downstairs in the company every day, playing the pipa for himself at the dinner table every day, and waking himself up early every day...... On the contrary, Li Lang's figure is getting fader and fainter, if it weren't for the photo of the two of them on the bedside, maybe Ye Qi would have forgotten about this person.
This is the life of ordinary people, who always can't escape the troubles of the world, and can't escape the entanglement of love and hate. Maybe it's the same, it's just that they always give people a feeling of being born, but in fact, they are all people, so what's the difference?
β¦β¦
Kagami Division, a light boat, nudging the green waves, carrying the young man rippling by the lake. The young man, wearing a pair of black-framed glasses, squinted a pair of small eyes, looked at the sky with a lifeless face, counted the white clouds, and the bangs on his forehead fluttered gently with the wind, sometimes revealing two drooping eyebrows.
A person who can be in his twenties, exuding the atmosphere of a late old man, in the Mirror Division, except for Zhang Yue, can no longer find a second place.
Today's weather is very good, it should have been a good day for training, but Zhang Yue gave Zhou Qianying a day off for the first time, and at this moment, she is sleeping beautifully in the room!
Zhang Yue took out two movie tickets from his trouser pocket, sighed, and was about to put them back when the hull of the boat suddenly flipped back, and the stern of the boat was cocked, splashing a large splash. Zhang Yue was very calm, raised her foot and stepped on it suddenly, darkening the stern of the boat, avoiding a disaster in which the boat capsized and fell into the water, but a figure crashed into her arms.
Yan Xi fell from the sky, sat on Zhang Yue's stomach, pressed him with a lot of meat, and snatched the movie ticket in Zhang Yue's hand, "Eh, want to invite me to the movies?" Just say it if you want to, what are you doing with it? Or ......"
Zhang Yue took a deep breath and suppressed all kinds of things churning in her stomach, "You come down first." I'm going to throw up. β
"If you dare to spit it out, I'll kill you and swallow it back for me." Yan Xi said disgustedly, got up and walked to the other side of the boat. Zhang Yue breathed a sigh of relief, Fang Cai Yan Xi's sudden Mount Tai pressure really made him a little unbearable.
"Not for you." Zhang Yue stretched out her hand and asked Yan Xi for the two tickets.
Yan Xi glanced at a window on the second floor of the attic and said, "Just say it, what's the use of staying alone on this boat?" Or do you want me to help you? With that, he returned the movie ticket as well.
Zhang Yue took the movie ticket, glanced at the starting time, and said: "She just received the task, she will leave tomorrow, give her a vacation, I wanted to take her shopping." β
"Then go!"
Before I could say anything, she ran back to her room and went to sleep. Alas, these days, she may be really tired, so let her have a good rest. Zhang Yue looked at the two movie tickets, and her fingertips moved lightly, wanting to pinch a fire and burn them.
Yan Xi hurriedly stopped him and said, "What is such a waste, she won't go, I'll go." After saying that, she snatched the movie ticket again and continued: "So now I will make a choice for you, go to the movies with me, or stay at home and wait for her to wake up, and then ask her out?" β
I don't know why, Zhang Yue always feels that this sentence has a different meaning.
"Let's go, let her sleep well, and go on a mission tomorrow." Zhang Yue said.
After that, the two of them went out of the mirror together, and on the way, both of them were silent, just walking quietly, until the movie theater was close in front of them, Zhang Yue planned to break this somewhat embarrassing atmosphere, "Speaking of which, what task did you give Qianying?" β
Yan Xi smiled: "What are you doing? Worried that your little lover is in danger? Why didn't you worry about me when I went on a mission before? β
Zhang Yue said seriously: "The first person of the younger generation of the Spirit Dao Alliance to do the task, do you need my little assistant to worry about?" Qianying is different, she is still a newcomer. And, you don't seem to have a helper for her? β
Yan Xi said indifferently: "Isn't it your first time on a mission?" She's been training for so long, and she should always show some results. How? When training, just stop everywhere, and when it comes to actual combat, do you still plan to release water? β
Zhang Yue was not surprised that Yan Xi could see that she took care of Zhou Qianying during her daily training, after all, if he really had the heart to practice, Zhou Qianying would not have the strength to jump with her after every training, and would have collapsed back to bed to rest.
But being so clearly broken, Zhang Yue didn't know what to say for a while, so she simply acquiesced to defend herself. Sometimes, it's easier to be honest than to cover up, even if it takes some thickness of the skin.
Regarding the thickness of Zhang Yue's skin, Yan Xi already knew about it, "Do you want to consider asking my sister?" Let you go on a mission with her? β
"I remember, when I first went on a mission, you were also secretly following and observing, right?" Zhang Yue said, but the meaning of the words is no longer necessary to delve into it.
Yan Xi didn't answer him, but asked a very nonsensical question, "If you can only choose one person between me and her, who will you choose?" β
Zhang Yue was stunned and fell into deep thought, Yan Xi's sudden question was completely out of Zhang Yue's cognition, and he didn't even understand the meaning of this question, "What are you asking this for?" β
"I let you answer, I didn't let you ask! Come, tell me, I'm satisfied with the answer, and I'll let you take the girl out on a mission. Yan Xi simply stopped Zhang Yue and blocked in front of him, behind him was the destination of their outing, less than five minutes before the movie began.
Three minutes passed in a blink of an eye, the movie had already started, Zhang Yue was still standing on the street only one road away from the movie theater, thinking about a very sharp question, but there was no question of motives, for a long time, he shook his head, "I can't choose, it's all my partners, isn't it good for everyone to get along well?" Why do you have to choose? β
Yan Xi glanced at Zhang Yue with an idiot gaze, then turned back indifferently and left, leaving Zhang Yue alone to follow expressionlessly. This night's companionship was not pleasant, at least in Zhang Yue's eyes.
