Chapter 18: Coffee for Four.
It turns out that there is competition in anything of the same nature in the world, like the younger sister.
……
"Staring~~" At the reception table, Hua Ling just stared at Ling Ya like this, as if she was staring at her prey.
"Ahem...... Ahem," Fu Xiaoyou coughed twice, wanting to ease the atmosphere, otherwise it would be too embarrassing.
"Then, that, Ling Ya, what do you want to ask us about this time?"
Although she was a little scared when she was stared at by Hua Ling, as soon as she mentioned that she was going to come to find someone to help this time, Ling Ya immediately cheered up.
Well, it looks like this person is quite important to her.
"Actually, I'm here this time, I just want you to help me tell my brother, I'm going home tomorrow."
"Home?" Hearing this question, Hua Ling couldn't help but be surprised, and seemed to be very interested in this topic.
And Fu Xiaoyou nodded, which can be regarded as a guess.
"Oh, you're here to play with your brother during the summer vacation!"
"Hmm,"
"If that's the case, just say no to your brother?" In this regard, Hua Ling was also a little puzzled,
"I want to, too, but my brother has been hiding from me lately, and I'm embarrassed to tell him."
Speaking of this, Ling Ya couldn't help but cover her face.
"Actually, this time I came to my brother's place during the summer vacation, not only to play, but also to tell my mother that I would come to my brother's place to go to school."
“……”
So similar to the experience, this ...... Isn't this the current situation of myself and Hua Ling? It's a little too small, isn't it?
Thinking of this, Fu Xiaoyou subconsciously looked at Hua Ling, and found that Hua Ling was also looking at herself. After the brother and sister glanced at each other, they suddenly realized that something was wrong, and quickly looked away.
Hua Ling: "I...... I'll go get some water, and you guys will talk first. ”
With that, Hua Ling left here.
Such a polite Hua Ling also made Fu Xiaoyou feel a little strange, what is this girl thinking?
But now is not the time to think about this, let's figure out Ling Ya's problem first!
Thinking so, Fu Xiaoyou turned around and found that Ling Ya was looking at him cautiously. As if asking, are you all right?
"This ...... Ling Ya, you don't have to care, go ahead! ”
“…… Hmm," Ling Ya nodded after getting Fu Xiaoyou's permission.
"Although I did plan to go to school with my brother at first, I had a good time with him the previous month. However, just in the last half month, my brother suddenly began to deliberately avoid me, leaving early and returning late, basically going out after I woke up, and only coming back when I was about to go to bed. ”
"And every time I came back at night, I didn't talk to me, I went straight to my bedroom. I asked my brother what he was doing, and he wouldn't say. ”
"That's it!"
Speaking of this, Ling Ya couldn't help but start to be a little frustrated, it seemed that she thought that this was a sign that her brother hated her, just because she was a younger sister, so it was difficult to say clearly, so she could only use actions to force her to leave.
And after understanding this, Ling Ya also made her own decision, but when she left, she wanted to talk to her brother again.
"So, I want to ask my big brother to help me, can you help me tell my brother about my leaving."
At this time, Hua Ling, who had already finished drinking water, sat back with a serious expression,
"But can't you just leave secretly? Do you have to tell your brother that you want your brother to chase you back when the time comes? ”
"Hua Ling." Seeing that Hua Ling said it so explicitly, Fu Xiaoyou hurriedly reminded her.
"I'm sorry, my sister just spoke a little heavily, Ling Ya, don't take it to heart."
"No, it's okay," Ling Ya smiled reluctantly,
"Actually, I've thought about this too, but I still feel a little too selfish, so I don't want to do it."
"I just thought, if I leave secretly like this, even if my brother really wants me to leave, I will feel guilty in my heart at that time!"
"Is that so?" Hua Ling on the side seemed to be muttering something to herself.
"So, I don't want my brother to feel guilty about me, so I thought about asking my eldest brother, is there any way to make my brother happy to send me away?"
"Well...... "Well, this seems to be a bit difficult."
Hearing Ling Ya's request, Fu Xiaoyou couldn't help but drag his chin.
After all, it's still a bit difficult to keep your brother from feeling guilty.
Just like people usually lend things to others, when others don't pay you back, you are expecting others to pay you back soon, and for this, you will even occasionally urge or warn you from the side. At this time, your attitude is more bad.
However, after someone else actually returns something to you, you will feel that you are too stingy, thinking that others have just borrowed your own things, as for such a fuss?
And Ling Ya's problem is here, her brother wants to use actions to force her to leave on her own, but Ling Ya is afraid that after she really leaves, her brother will feel guilty because of it.
Ling Ya, who can take this into account, can be said to be very thoughtful, but there seems to be a little misunderstanding among them.
"Well, I want to ask Ling Ya, what kind of relationship are you and your brother in now?"
Hearing Fu Xiaoyou's question, Ling Ya looked a little nervous,
"Well, because my brother and I are just brothers and sisters in a reorganized family, after my father and mother divorced a few years ago, it shouldn't have anything to do with it now!"
Ling Ya said as she touched her hair nervously, looking a little concerned about this matter.
I don't mind if I'm not my brother's sister! Really, this sense of déjà vu, why is it so similar to me and Hua Ling? It's like a mirror printed.
is so similar that Fu Xiaoyou can't help but look at Hua Ling again, and Hua Ling also seems to have a heart and forgets to come over at the same time.
The brother and sister, who looked at each other again, looked away even faster than just now.
"Ahem, in fact, Ling Ya, the problem is not as serious as you think, since he is your brother, he will always be your brother, and it will not change because of some other external factors."
"Really?"
"yes!" Looking at Ling Ya, who became happy because of Fu Xiaoyou's reminder, Hua Ling couldn't help but interject.
"Since you care so much about your brother, you have to have more confidence in him! Even if you come here to study, it may drag down your brother for three years. ”
“…… Will I drag my brother down? ”
"yes!"
Seeing that Ling Ya, who had finally become happy, became depressed again, Fu Xiaoyou hurriedly dragged Hua Ling down. This girl is deliberately making trouble for herself, right?
"(whispering) Hua Ling, don't say bad things again, don't you see her like this!"
"Hmph (whispering), I just can't get used to seeing her like this."
"......" What else can I not get used to, can my sisters also look down on each other?
"However, you still can't say such a thing as dragging my brother for three years!"
"Huh? Why?"
At this time, Hua Ling was even more angry, and she no longer continued to whisper.
"Brother, when you say that, are you also reminding me on the side that I will drag you down for three years?"
"Huh?" Did I say that, where is this? Shouldn't we be talking about Ling Ya's problem!
"Hmph."
Without waiting for Fu Xiaoyou to react, Hua Ling directly shook Fu Xiaoyou with a roll of her eyes, and then left the company angrily.
"I'm going home, just let your good sister Ling Ya accompany you!"
“……”
What's wrong with this girl today?
*
In the company, Fu Xiaoyou and Ling Ya continued to discuss her brother's problem.
Of course, this is what Fu Xiaoyou thought, and now Ling Ya's attention is obviously not here.
"Big brother," Ling Ya looked like a child who had done something wrong, her hands behind her back restrainedly, her eyes dodging, and she had a cute feeling inexplicably.
"Did I just say something wrong?"
"It's nothing, it's just that my sister is a little emotional today." After all, although she is usually eccentric, she is still quite rarely angry, and in the face of Qin Yinnai, they can become sisters in an instant, which shows that her social skills are indeed good.
It's just that why is this happening today, is it still angry that she didn't let her buy an electric car? Hawkers,This kind of thing,Let it go.,It should pass.。
"But, just now, my sister seems to be very angry......"
Saying that, Ling Ya's expression became even darker, and being so polite made Fu Xiaoyou a little at a loss.
The two extreme personalities of being too polite and too unkind are really hard to deal with!
"Hawkers, this should be fine, Hua Ling, she is just playing a little temper, and she should be fine when her anger subsides in a while." Fu Xiaoyou played haha, trying to make himself look kinder.
"And she's the same age as you, you don't have to call her sister, just call her Hua Ling."
"Eh," Ling Ya was a little surprised,
"Hua Ling, is she also 16 years old? But he looks so much taller than me! ”
…… Or maybe it's because Ling Ya is shorter! At first glance, I thought it was a junior high school student.
"However, could it be that Hua Ling has something to hide from you, big brother, so she is angry."
"Why do you say that?"
"Because, I think the relationship between the eldest brother and Hua Ling is very good, and the younger sister who likes her brother will not be angry casually!"
"Yes, yes!"
Being reminded by Ling Ya like this, Fu Xiaoyou also seemed to feel a little wrong, since yesterday, Hua Ling's appearance seems to be a little wrong, whether it is suddenly coming to her for lunch together, or letting herself accompany her to buy an electric car.
This had to make Fu Xiaoyou think of Ling Ya's purpose for coming here.
If it is because she doesn't want her brother to feel guilty, so she wants to do something to make up for it when she leaves, Ling Ya's choice is to ask herself for help, then Hua Ling's choice is......
"Boss, I just saw your little girlfriend leave in a huff."
The sudden voice interrupted Fu Xiaoyou's thoughts.
When I turned around, I found Li Zhuoni, dressed in a formal suit, standing behind with four cups of coffee.
She...... actually served it on a plate, for fear that others wouldn't know that she was a professional takeaway for others? Also, Hua Ling is my sister.
If the guess is correct, someone will definitely ask her for the delivery number of her café when she comes up this time.
"You just said you went back to help just to get us coffee?"
"Hmm," Li Zhuoni nodded, which couldn't help but make Fu Xiaoyou a little moved.
In order to entertain customers, I actually went home to serve coffee, and with such caring staff, what luxury did I, the boss, have? Woo woo ~ ~
"Expanding my family's career is also part of my job."
"Huh?"
"Also, four cups of mixed coffee, please ask the boss to transfer the money to my employee account at that time, thank you."
The sentence "......" almost made Fu Xiaoyou faint. You give me back my touch, bastard.
You call this forced consumption, okay, how can anyone send coffee directly to someone else's company and ask for money? I want to request a return.
As if seeing Fu Xiaoyou's intentions, Li Zhuoni said quietly,
"Boss, because I sent four cups, so it's free shipping, if the boss wants to apply for a return, please also pay for shipping and service charges."
“…… How much does it cost? ”
"Ten dollars for shipping."
Whew, it's okay, it's only a loss of ten yuan.
"Plus the service fee of the invincible and lovely professional maid, a total of two hundred and eight."
…… Isn't that the same amount of money as four cups of coffee?
Ignoring Fu Xiaoyou's frantic expression, Li Zhuoni elegantly put the coffee on the table in turn.
"Little sister, please use it."
"Thank you, sister."
"You're welcome."
Ling Ya gave Li Zhuoni a grateful look at the coffee handed over...... Well, use my money to dedicate your hospitality, how to say, worthy of being my employee.
Putting the plate aside, Li Zhuoni sat down comfortably, and picked up a cup of coffee as a pastime.
You put it down for me, this is the coffee I bought.
"So, boss, where are you going?"
“……”
Helpless, Fu Xiaoyou had no choice but to tell Li Zhuoni the cause and effect again, and her expression remained unchanged throughout the whole process, and she only cared about enjoying the coffee bought by the customer to the café owner, and she didn't know if she listened or not.
After Fu Xiaoyou finished the last sentence, Li Zhuoni's response was belated.
"Dad's coffee seems to be a little bitter today."
…… She certainly didn't listen.
*
Hua Ling walked alone on the road, did not take the bus, and she didn't want to go back, so now she had to go out for a walk.
Because the school year is approaching, the streets are full of scenes of parents taking their children to school to report.
This made Hua Ling's heart a little unhappy.
subconsciously grabbed the things in his hand, only to find that all the things he bought were from his brother.
It's really unlucky, but I can't go back to my brother now, otherwise my brother will definitely think that he is angry and go back.
It would be humiliating if that were the case.
And the fact that my brother didn't chase him out means that he must have just thought he was playing a little temper. And he knew that he would only go back obediently when he was angry.
Thinking of this, Hua Ling couldn't help laughing.
It's a pity that my brother guessed wrong, and this time he wasn't angry.
