Chapter 13: Misunderstanding

I had been following Meng Yingjiu almost 5 meters away. I remembered the last time he was waiting for me outside the newspaper office and said that he sensed me inside, and I was really scared that he would now sense that I was following him.

But if you think about it, it should be just a coincidence, where can there be such a mysterious thing as telepathy? But I've been experiencing a lot of strange things lately, and I'm not as determined as I used to be.

But is our relationship close enough to be telepathic? While I was thinking nonsense, Meng Yingjiu turned around and entered a teahouse.

I stood in the doorway, waited, and followed. This is an antique design style teahouse, the decoration and furnishings inside make people feel as if they have passed through all of a sudden, sure enough, this is Meng Yingjiu's preference, simple and elegant.

I walked in cautiously and smelled the faint aroma of tea, and in the center of the lobby was a man-made rockery, surrounded by wooden tables and chairs, separated by wooden railings. The carved wooden windows reflect the sparkling sunlight and shine into the room, and the brightness is just right.

Although it was a weekday afternoon, there were quite a few customers here.

I saw Meng Yingjiu find a place to sit down alone, what is he doing here alone? Are you going to meet someone?

So I sat down behind him not far from him, and a waitress in a pale green cheongsam came over to greet me and handed me a menu.

I looked at it and was scared to close my mouth. Not because of its ingenious design, but because of the price above. A pot of ordinary green tea actually costs 368 yuan!

I guessed that the consumption here must be high, but I didn't expect it to be so high, is it because I haven't gone shopping for too long?

I immediately calmed down and said to the waiter with a sweet smile in front of me, "I'm waiting for someone, I'll take a look at this first, and I'll order it later." ”

"Okay, you can call me anytime you need service."

After she left, I continued to pretend to be calm and read the menu, but the further back I looked, I almost cried. Only green tea is the cheapest, I open my bag to see how much cash I still have, this kind of place can definitely be swiped.

I was originally following Meng Yingjiu in with a little excitement, but now my heart is like stagnant water, and when I was about to endure the pain point meal with the menu, the waiter came over again, and carried a small purple sand teapot.

She put the teapot in front of me, what is this for? I haven't ordered it yet? After she put it down, she said to me, "Hello, this gentleman over there ordered it for you." After speaking, she pointed to Meng Yingjiu, who was sitting not far in front of me. Please use it slowly. ”

Looking at his back, frightened again, when did he find mine. He was talking to a waiter about something, and suddenly the waiter looked at me, not good! Sure enough, Meng Yingjiu also turned around!

I didn't know how to face Meng Yingjiu all of a sudden, so I subconsciously used the menu to cover my face and buried my head. It was smooth to dodge just now, but now I can't raise my head.

What to do? How do you explain it now? I happen to be drinking tea here too? But the way I am now, it's obvious that I'm a thief! yes, why did I hide? I should have waved him generously, and said, "What a coincidence! You're also drinking tea here. “

Hey, one misstep becomes a thousand years of hatred! I heard the chair across from me being pulled apart, and then Meng Yingjiu's voice, "Thank you." "You use it slowly, call me again if you need to."

He's sitting down, what should I do? Suddenly, there was an upward force in the menu in my hand, I grabbed it tightly, and Meng Yingjiu's voice came from above my head, "If you don't let go, the menu will be scratched by you." “

What the? How much do you have to pay if you scratch the menu? I had to let go, look up, and the moment I looked up, I suddenly figured it out. Since I just like him, and I'm sitting in front of him now, don't hide it anymore. Women chasing men, isn't it about the layer of yarn?

Meng Yingjiu took the menu and placed it next to him. Picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea and handed it to me, and I took it. "Taste it."

I blew and took a small sip. I don't drink tea often and don't know much about tea, so I occasionally buy some flower tea to drink on a whim. So, I don't know what I'm drinking right now.

"What is this?"

"This is Liubao tea, it can dispel the heat, your face is so red, it must be very hot."

I was just nervous, so blushing. "yes, it's really hot outside." I didn't know what to say, so I had to keep drinking tea.

Meng Yingjiu still said in his usual indifferent tone, "Why are you here?" “

Sure enough, I still can't escape, "I'm here to investigate." "No, it seems to be a bit far from A." Then I walked around outside, it was a little hot, so I found a place to rest, and I saw that it was good, so I came in. I leaned in to him and whispered, "It's just too expensive, by the way, why are you here?" “

He just looked at me and smiled, and didn't answer. I sighed, stepped back, and leaned back in my chair. "I made an appointment to meet here." "Who?" "A friend."

It turns out that he still has friends. "When are you going to meet?" "It's now." "Ahh Is he going to give an eviction order again? I cautiously asked, "Can I continue to sit here?" “

Meng Ying said at nine o'clock: "If you are not busy, just here." “

I couldn't believe that he was going to introduce me to his friends, and it seemed that our relationship had gone further.

Meng Yingjiu waved his hand behind me, and I turned around to see a middle-aged uncle looking at us and laughing. I turned my head and asked Meng Yingjiu, "Is it him?" “

"Yes."

I'm wondering, why did Meng Yingjiu date an uncle, it seems that Meng Yingjiu is really an old antique. I was about to get up, and my uncle was already at the table.

"Xiao Meng? Who is this? ”

I got up and said to my uncle, "Hello uncle! I am a friend of Meng Yingjiu. “

The uncle said to me kindly, "Oh, sit down, little sister." Then he patted Meng Yingjiu on the shoulder, smiled evilly and said to him: "You kid, that's good!" Meng Yingjiu didn't say anything, just helped the uncle pull out the stool.

It seems that the uncle misunderstood my concern with Meng Yingjiu. But Meng Yingjiu is like this, is it a tacit acquiescence?

After everyone sat down, I poured a cup of tea and handed it to the uncle, who took it and said, "Thank you, little sister, what's your name?" "My name is Lin Min, uncle, what should I call you?

"Haha, you just call me Uncle Qing, I look so cute. It's as beautiful as the legend says. “

Could it be that Meng Yingjiu has already mentioned me to Uncle Qing? I asked, somewhat puzzled, "Legend?" ”

Uncle Qing paused for a moment and said, "Hahaha, Xiao Meng told me." ”

It turns out that I am beautiful and moving in Meng Yingjiu's heart! I thought he had always thought I was a nymphomaniac, and I smiled embarrassedly.

Uncle Qing continued: "Xiao Meng, since the last time we said goodbye, we haven't seen each other for a long time, I think it's almost 5"

Meng Yingjiu said: "It's been 5 years. ”

Uncle Qing thought for a while and said, "Yes, it's been 5 years, hahaha." ”

"5 years? Why have you been apart for so long? ”

Uncle Qing said: "Everyone is busy with their own things, and the outside world is also complicated, and the war is chaotic."

"War?" I couldn't help but interrupt and asked.

"It's not war, hahaha, I was wrong, it's pollution! Contaminate! Look at how bad the environment is now! ”

Meng Yingjiu shook his head and drank tea by himself.

I replied, "yes, but fortunately everyone has noticed this problem now, and I'm sure it will get better in the future." ”

Uncle Qing shook his head and said, "I can't go back." The broken mirror is reunited, but the rift cannot disappear, but unfortunately human beings have never understood. ”

That sounds weird.

I really wanted to know about Meng Yingjiu, so I asked Uncle Qing: "Uncle Qing, how do you and Meng Yingjiu know?" "Didn't Xiao Meng tell you?"

I looked at Meng Yingjiu and said, "He didn't tell me anything. “

Meng Yingjiu was still expressionless, and Uncle Qing said: "He's like this, he doesn't like to talk much, he can't say a few words in the past 100 years, don't pay attention to him!" "This is too exaggerated, Uncle Qing, you are so humorous." "That's really the case, Xiaomin, let me tell you, if he bullies you in the future, you will find me, and Uncle Qing will definitely help you."

Meng Yingjiu looked at Uncle Qing and said, "You have too much to say." ”

I smiled and said, "Okay, Uncle Qing, I'll thank you first." I picked up the teacup and continued, "Uncle Qing, I will replace the wine with tea, and I will toast you with a glass." ”

Uncle Qing also picked up the teacup and touched me, "Yes, Xiaomin, I like your character." ”

After we drank, Uncle Qing said to Meng Yingjiu: "This time, you can stay." "Uncle finished looking at me.

Remain? What does this mean? Where is he going? Meng Yingjiu said: "When it is decided, you can stay." ”

Uncle Qing said: "In this way, we can play together, and Xiaomin, how fun!"

Unexpectedly, Uncle Qing looked like a middle-aged uncle, and his mentality was quite young.

I wanted to continue asking about the two of them, but suddenly I called and asked for an interview. I had to leave first. Before leaving, Uncle Qing said that he would go to the place where we rented a house to cook for me at night, and his skills were super good.

After separating from them, I went to the place where the incident occurred, and then reported back to the company to sort out the information. I was going to discuss it with Editor-in-Chief Zheng and make a column focusing on the pressure of high school students, but he was not in the office.

After sorting out the materials, it was already 6 o'clock. I cleaned up and prepared to go home and enjoy the dinner that Uncle Qing had prepared for me.

When I went home and opened the door, sure enough, there were several plates of delicious food on the table. I walked into the kitchen, but I only saw Meng Yingjiu alone, cleaning up.

"Huh? What about Uncle Qing? Why are you alone? ”

Meng Yingjiu continued to pack his things, didn't look at me, and said, "He will go back if he has something." ”

"Huh? He went back after cooking, huh? What's the hurry?

Meng Yingjiu stopped what he was doing, turned his head and said to me, "I did it." ”

"Oh." I had some fun in my heart, it turned out that he still cared about this, and he didn't completely stop eating the fireworks of the world.

Meng Yingjiu said: "Go and put down your things, wash your hands and eat." ”

I happily replied, "Okay! “

Put down the things and wash your hands, Meng Yingjiu has already put the dishes and chopsticks away. I just sat down and ate it, and it was a great feeling.

While eating, I asked Meng Yingjiu: "Meng Yingjiu, this afternoon, the words I said to Uncle Qing are the same things I said that you didn't tell me anything, are you angry?" “

Meng Yingjiu said: "Don't be angry. "Really?" "Don't be angry." He looked up at me, "I really didn't tell you anything. “

When he said this, I was a little speechless, doesn't this show that he has completely suppressed me?

Well, that's all my choice, and I continued, "Are you really going to tell me nothing?"

Meng Yingjiu stopped eating and looked at me seriously. I thought he was going to say something to me, so I stopped. I heard him speak, "There is rice in the corner of your left mouth." “

When I heard this, I almost fainted, so I immediately wiped it off with a tissue.

In the interval between you and me wiping their mouths, Meng Yingjiu said: "I just haven't decided yet, and I haven't figured out how to tell you, and when I think about it, I'll tell you." "Tell me what?" "Lin Min, sometimes it's not a good thing to know too much." "But I'm just curious, and I can't hold back."

Meng Yingjiu glanced at me and sighed. "I'll tell you later."

He actually sighed! I'll have to wait until he says so, and hopefully I'll not be driven crazy by then.

After eating, we washed the dishes together and felt like a little couple. I remembered what Uncle Qing said in the afternoon, he misunderstood me and Meng Yingjiu, I don't know what Meng Yingjiu thinks.

Shall I ask him? But if his answer is not what I want to hear, it won't be too sad, and it will be equivalent to him rejecting me.

After thinking about it, forget it, it's good to be like this now, and I also think that the time has not yet come, and it should be time for us to get acquainted with each other a little more.
