Chapter 70: Jealousy
Those boys and girls who were once ignorant of the world are gradually disappearing with time.
- Xia Yuyang
Xie Xiaonuan found that Xia Yuyang's eyes were filled with endless tenderness, so gentle that she was about to faint, and she couldn't help but breathe shortly.
"What...... What a family, you heard it wrong! ”
Xia Yuyang was noncommittal, and raised his eyebrows meaningfully, "Really? Even if I hear it wrong, Auntie can't hear it wrong, or I'll go to the kitchen and ask Auntie now......"
As soon as Xia Yuyang shouted the word "auntie", he was covered by Xie Xiaonuan, Xie Xiaonuan glared at him angrily, "You can't go over!" ”
Xia Yuyang narrowed her eyes and smiled, raised her other hand to hold Xie Xiaonuan's wrist, she instantly blushed, her earlobes were dyed with a thin layer of pink, and she quickly let go of that hand.
Xie Xiaonuan ignored him anymore, tore open the snack package, leaned on the sofa with a pillow, picked up the potato chips and kept chewing, still defending with a hard mouth, "Anyway, you heard it wrong, I didn't say anything......"
Xia Yuyang looked at Xie Xiaonuan and didn't admit it, but he couldn't do anything to her, so he also sat down and looked at her carefully with his chin up.
Xie Xiaonuan found that there was an inquiring gaze on the other side towards her, she was extraordinarily not weak-hearted, but also stared back as if she was fighting back, her chin was slightly raised, and her eyes were full of disdain.
Xia Yuyang pulled the corners of his mouth helplessly.
With this expression, is she despising herself?
It's so funny, what a hypocritical little woman that people love and hate and don't dare to bully easily.
"That's right." Xia Yuyang suddenly remembered something, looked at the girl who was eating happily opposite, thought for a long time, and decided to say it, "Lu Zihao...... Just had a call to you. ”
Xie Xiaonuan stopped moving, his eyes were full of confusion, "Lu Zihao? What did he ask me to do. ”
Xia Yuyang lay leisurely on the sofa, his legs folded, with a hint of dissatisfaction and stubbornness in his tone, "How do I know what he is looking for you to do, you just ask him." ”
Xie Xiaonuan noticed that Xia Yuyang's state was wrong, she tilted her head and thought for a while, as if she had thought of something, and asked, "Hey, classmate Yuyang, what's wrong with you?" ”
Xia Yuyang knew that his emotions were a little exposed, so he hurriedly changed his indifferent appearance, "It's not much, you go and call back, don't let Lu Zihao wait for a long time." ”
Xie Xiaonuan looked at Xia Yuyang suspiciously, but she didn't see the slightest reason, she was inexplicably a little frustrated, she couldn't help but snort slightly, and finally got up and went back to the room.
Xia Yuyang looked at the back that gradually disappeared around the corner, and a gloomy loss gradually appeared in his eyes.
What can Lu Zihao do when he looks for her?
Although the two of them are at the same table and have a closer relationship than other classmates, but now that they have winter vacation, what phone can they call?
What's more, we just met yesterday, so what's going on today? They're a little too warm, aren't they......
Xia Yuyang's brows were furrowed, and he was a little irritable in his heart, and he raised his eyes suddenly, just facing a small makeup mirror placed on the coffee table.
Seeing himself with a sad face in the mirror, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned for a moment.
No, what are you doing now?
Jealous?
Xia Yuyang immediately shook his head, he is a big boy, he should be broad-minded, and for a person who is not yet a rival in love, what kind of vinegar do you suddenly eat......
He couldn't help but feel amused for a while, and laughed at himself for thinking too much, after all, everyone was in the same class.
But after thinking about it, every time Lu Zihao looked at Xie Xiaonuan's gentle eyes, as well as Xie Xiaonuan's slow temperament, he felt distressed again.
No wonder my mother didn't allow herself to get too close to the girl, it turned out that she would really affect her happiness because of some trivial things.
Unexpectedly, my mother has been old-fashioned for more than ten years, and finally showed her "true heart" in front of Xie Xiaonuan, thinking of this, his mood has also improved a little.
Xie Xiaonuan returned to the room, and after hesitating for a few minutes, he gritted his teeth and dialed back Lu Zihao.
I just heard that the phone was quickly picked up, and Lu Zihao's brisk voice came, "Hey, Xie Xiaonuan." ”
"Lu Zihao, what's the matter? I just didn't hear my phone ring. Xie Xiaonuan explained slowly.
"It's okay, it's not a big deal." Lu Zihao chuckled indifferently, "I remember that you said before that you particularly liked "Selected Poems of Tagore", but you have never been able to find the collector's edition, I just flipped through my bookcase, and coincidentally, there is really such a copy." ”
"Really?" Xie Xiaonuan's eyes were full of surprise.
Hearing the girl who couldn't stop being overjoyed on the phone, Lu Zihao was in a good mood, and the corners of his mouth also smiled, he reached out and stroked the new book that had not yet been opened, and replied.
"Of course, I'm looking at it now, and I love the phrase 'man goes into the crowd to drown out his own silent cry.'"
"Yes, yes, yes! I don't want to struggle alone as an individual, so I integrate into the commonality of the customs, which can be humble and warm. Lu Zihao, you are really my bosom friend! Xie Xiaonuan was so excited that her eyebrows fluttered, and she almost danced.
Lu Zihao's smile became more and more bright, and he unconsciously repeated her words, "I am yours...... Bosom friend ......"
"That...... Lu Zihao, can I ask you for one thing? Xie Xiaonuan's face flushed and he spoke awkwardly.
"Just say it, I'll promise you everything!" Lu Zihao replied quickly.
"You, you, you probably trust me too much, and you just agree without asking what it is." Xie Xiaonuan chuckled lowly.
Lu Zihao was silent there for a long time before he slowly spoke, "Because I like it very much...... Be your friend. ”
Xie Xiaonuan was stunned for a moment, then covered his mouth and smiled secretly, and then said, "Can I borrow "Selected Poems of Tagore" for a few days?" Rest assured, I promise to protect it well. ”
"Absolutely!" Lu Zihao stretched out his fingers and tapped on the desk, extremely leisurely.
Xie Xiaonuan thought for a moment, "When do you have time?" I'm always available. ”
Lu Zihao sighed, "That's it, do you have time at ten o'clock tomorrow morning?" How about we meet at that 'Nuan Nuan House' bubble tea shop? ”
Xie Xiaonuan's eyes contained a few rays of bright light, "Okay, see you tomorrow." ”
Hanging up the phone, Xie Xiaonuan's mood was still excited, and he hummed a small tune when he went out.
Xia Yuyang, who was sitting on the sofa with infinite melancholy, heard footsteps behind him, and his face immediately returned to calm, pretending to be looking at his mobile phone, and making a "tsk" sound from time to time.
Xia Yuyang wanted to get her attention, but who knew that people didn't take themselves seriously at all, so he sat on the opposite sofa and knocked the melon seeds leisurely.
Xia Yuyang only felt that his blood was stagnant for a while, and it took a long time before he recovered, and inadvertently spoke, "It's been so long on the phone, what did Lu Zihao say to you?" ”
Xie Xiaonuan became even more interested when he heard the person opposite ask, "Do you know which book I like the most?" ”
Xia Yuyang was stunned, "Which one?" ”
Xie Xiaonuan slapped his thigh violently, put down the melon seeds and chatted with him.
"I'll tell you, I like Rabindranath Tagore's Selected Poems the most, and I haven't been able to find a collector's edition, but you know what? Lu Zihao actually has it at home, haha...... I'm so excited......"
Looking at the girl who was smiling like a flower on the other side, but because of someone else's girl, his face became stiff, and the tenderness and smile in his eyes gradually disappeared.
He really wanted to strangle himself, so he asked her what the phone call was about, and he was in a normal mood, but now it's good, it's so bad that he can't describe it in words.
You say, she likes "Selected Poems of Tagore", there are many books by Tagore in the bookstore, he just accompanies her to buy one, she still has to ask for a collector's edition, I really don't know what the difference is between the two......
What the?
Two people still want to meet?
Have an appointment for tomorrow?
I'm just going to leave here tomorrow, Lu Zihao, this guy, can he really pick the time, when he doesn't exist......
Xie Xiaonuan was still babbling and talking, but Xia Yuyang had long been in the mood to listen, and coughed mercilessly, "It's not early, I'll call my mother to come over for dinner." ”
After Xia Yuyang finished speaking, he stood up and hurriedly walked out.
Xie Xiaonuan, who was talking about it, was suddenly interrupted, still a little dissatisfied in his heart, and muttered.
"What! You are the one who asks me to speak, and you are the one who does not listen to me, and it is really difficult to serve......"
Xia Yuyang closed the door, leaning against the cold wall, with a lot of thoughts, although he kept complaining, he couldn't afford to be angry with her.
To what extent did he like her, but because of this very normal and insignificant little thing, it affected his emotions.
He felt helpless, but he could only sigh deeply, maybe he owed her too much in his previous life, and he came to pay off his debts in this life.
Debts and debts, if he repays debts, he is happy to pay debts for the rest of his life.
Under some self-comfort and guidance, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, and his mood improved a lot.
Mother Xie's cooking skills really deserve her reputation, and even the mouthy Aunt Jiang is full of praise, eager to praise every dish.
"Eat quietly! Such a delicious meal can't stop your mouth. Although Mother Xie said this, she was also in a good mood, and couldn't help but give Aunt Jiang a few more sweet and sour pork ribs.
"Hmm...... It's this taste, it's so fragrant, Xiaoxiao, I haven't tasted your dishes for many years, especially Huai Yuyang, I especially want to eat sweet and sour pork ribs, Zhixuan has run several restaurants, and they are not as authentic as you! ”
Aunt Jiang praised while eating, but she still looked good.
Xie Xiaonuan is so envious, Aunt Jiang is already beautiful, and even has a good temperament and upbringing, if only she could be like her.
Mother Xie asked with a smile, "Do you want to learn to cook with me and cook it for your husband and son at home?" ”
Aunt Jiang hurriedly shook her head, "Don't torture me, with my cooking level, I think even your father-in-law and mother-in-law laughed at me back then!" ”
Aunt Jiang's words made Mother Xie's smile immediately freeze on her face, as if a basin of cold water had been poured from her head from beginning to end.
Mother Xie looked at Aunt Jiang in a daze, and then secretly glanced at Xie Xiaonuan, who was immersed in her head and trying to cook rice, her eyes were full of uneasiness and panic.
