Chapter 9: Important People

The sky was overcast, and the howling cold wind seemed to be a little colder than last night.

It does look like it's going to rain......

Lin Wang shrunk his neck, turned around and closed the door of the apartment building, and put his hands in his pockets with his umbrella.

After resigning, he never went out before ten o'clock in the morning, and had almost forgotten what a winter morning was like.

In essence, he is a game nerd who is more self-disciplined at work and lazy in life. As long as he stays at home and can live peacefully, he won't be too concerned about the unexpected world.

"How about just saying it's a friend?" Tang Xiaomian put on a sweatshirt and hat and gently rubbed his cheeks.

From walking out of the house to leaving the apartment building, she thought about it for a long time and only thought of such a simple answer.

"It's kind of far-fetched."

"Far-fetched?"

"Because that's a bit inconsistent with your previous efforts to find me......"

Lin Wang sighed, "No matter what reason you had with Lin Chaochao to find someone, judging from your 'confidential identity' and your behavior of wanting to find me in the first place, I will definitely not be an ordinary friend with you." ”

After a pause, he added, "It's not appropriate to talk about relatives, after all, I can't say that I have relatives and have been living in other people's homes...... Unless you want to move in with me right now. ”

"Hmm......"

Tang Xiaomian thought about it, and felt that this was indeed the case, "What about the only friend?" ”

When she asked Lin Chaochao to help find someone before, she didn't mess with the reason, but described Lin Wang as a person who was very, very important to herself...... In fact, it is.

“…… This will make you look bad. ”

"But that's the truth!"

"......" Lin Wang's footsteps paused slightly, and he turned his head to look at her thoughtfully, "Tell the truth?" ”

"Well, it's, it's actually not a friend...... Tang Xiaomian reacted, tilting his head to the side.

"What's not a friend?"

"Probably...... Someone a little important? ”

"Sort of?"

"Of course it's 'a little', otherwise how many more would you like?"

"Okay, then I'll be this 'somewhat important' person." Lin Wang smiled and didn't ask any more.

"But when I see Lin Chaochao, I definitely can't say that...... 'only friend' can't do it, so what about 'the only friend in this city'?" Tang Xiaomian asked.

"Yes." Lin Wang nodded, feeling that this statement was still relatively reliable.

As they spoke, the two had already walked through the open parking lot of the apartment building to the crosswalk on the side of the road.

The green light has just turned red, and there are still more than fifty seconds left in the waiting time.

Lin Wang stopped, looked at the vehicles and pedestrians coming and going, and then looked at the familiar shops and billboards on the side of the road, and his consciousness suddenly became a little trance.

If he was the one who somehow crossed over to another strange world, what would be the result?

Possible...... He's going to just crash, right?

"What do you do when you're not fighting youkai?" He asked.

"Watching TV, playing games, or drawing at home." Tang Xiaomian held his cheek with his hand and transferred heat to his little face.

"Not going out?"

"What are you doing when you go out, it's not fun."

"Yes, indeed." Lin Wang felt the same way.

As a single straight man with a lazy personality, the social activities he usually participates in the most may be going out to eat with some good friends...... Let's play a game by the way.

As for activities such as shopping, shopping, and watching movies, it is estimated that he will not be able to unlock them until he has a girlfriend.

"What about you, do you go out often, the kind that suddenly runs far away and doesn't come back for days?"

"No, like you, I like to stay at home every day."

"Oh, that's good......" Tang Xiaomian muttered in a low voice, feeling inexplicably a little happy in his heart.

"Good what?" Lin Wang turned his head to look at her.

"No, nothing, I'm talking nonsense." Tang Xiaomian retracted his head into his hat.

Looking at her shy appearance at this time, Lin Wang had completely forgotten the mature, intellectual, beautiful and sassy girl last night.

That's all fake.

The red light in the distance turned green.

Lin Wang retracted his thoughts, stepped forward and raised his hand, subconsciously preparing to cross the road by holding the shoulders of the people around him.

In the next second, he suddenly reacted that it was not a same-sex brother standing beside him, but a young girl.

He withdrew his arm with some weakness and pretended that nothing had happened.

I've been single for a long time, and I see who is a brother.

This is a disease, and it must be cured.

……

Lin Chaochao's residence was also very close to the convenience store, and the two chatted and walked, and before they knew it, they arrived at the downstairs of the residential building.

Tang Xiaomian greeted and asked Lin Wang to wait downstairs, and she went up to pick up people first.

The girl didn't tell her about spending the night at Lin Wang's house last night, but only sent a few messages to Lin Chaochao at about seven o'clock in the morning, explaining that she had gone out early in the morning to meet someone.

Lin Wang originally thought that it would take a lot of time for the girl to groom and dress up, but he didn't expect to wait for less than ten minutes before he saw Tang Xiaomian pushing a young woman in a wheelchair out of the building.

"Hi~" The woman in the wheelchair took the lead in saying hello, smiling very sunny.

"Hello." Lin Wang smiled and nodded.

Lin Chaochao's situation in a wheelchair was completely predictable to him.

He just didn't expect that the store manager was actually quite young, and he looked like a college student.

"I thought it would be impossible to find you with that stupid method, but I didn't expect you to live near here, and you just happened to go to my store." Lin Chaochao was a little emotional.

"Well, I think I'm lucky, too." Lin Wang glanced at Tang Xiaomian.

Or perhaps, this is not a kind of luck, but some kind of inevitability.

After a brief chat, the three of them left the community together and walked to the convenience store.

On the way, Lin Wang learned that the reason why the clerk of the convenience store could recognize him at a glance was because Tang Xiaomian drew a portrait of him for reference and comparison.

He asked Tang Xiaomian for the portrait that was saved in his mobile phone, and after a careful inspection, he found that this portrait was really seven or eight points similar to himself, and others could recognize him almost at a glance.

"You...... How? He turned his head to look at Tang Xiaomian, his mouth opened slightly, and he almost forgot to manage his expression.

You know, before the two met, this girl had only seen him in a dream ten years ago!

Based on the memory of ten years ago, I actually drew him ten years later.

This girl is going against the sky!

"I just speculated casually, but I didn't expect it to be quite accurate." Tang Xiaomian laughed twice, unable to control the smugness on his face at all.

“…… With such a good talent, it's a pity not to learn to draw. Lin Wang whispered and handed her back the phone.

As soon as he withdrew his hand, he suddenly thought of something, and immediately looked down at Lin Chaochao, "Tang Xiaomian's mobile phone, clothes, and some daily necessities are all paid for by you, how much is the total amount, I will transfer it to you on WeChat." ”

“……”

Lin Chaochao looked up at him, then looked back at Tang Xiaomian, thinking about the previous situation, and suddenly had some kind of guess in his heart, "You two...... It can't be an online dating couple, right? ”
