Chapter 172: Caressing Her Hair
After summarizing the knowledge points of a volume, I saw that the time was already more than twelve o'clock.
At noon, no one cooked at home, Jiang Huaining's skills were only enough to cook instant noodles, he picked up his coat and put it on: "Go to the restaurant to eat, there is one near the community, and the reputation is good." ”
Shen Huan leaned his head back on the chair, a ball of paste was stirring in his brain, he closed his eyes and pinched his nose bone, and collapsed: "It's raining, I don't want to go out, can I send it to the door?" ”
"Yes, yes, what kind of food do you want to eat, I'll call for food."
Jiang Huaining pulled out a brand-new leaflet from his desk drawer, with a phone number for ordering food. This is the waiter of the restaurant at the gate of the community before the National Day holiday, and there are discount activities during the holiday.
Shen Huan sat up straight, picked up the leaflet and glanced at it roughly, and ordered the dish unceremoniously: "Salt-baked chicken, garlic broccoli, sour and hot shredded potatoes, minced meat and eggplant, that's all." ”
Jiang Huaining took the leaflet from his hand and handed it to Lu Zhu: "Look at what you want to eat." ”
Four dishes for four people are enough to eat, Lu Zhu shook his head: "I also like to eat the ones that Shen Huan ordered, so I don't need to order more." ”
"I want you a mushroom and tofu soup?" Jiang Huaining proposed, "It's good to drink some soup when it's cold." ”
"Okay."
Jiang Huaining gave the menu to Shen Li and asked her what she wanted to eat.
Shen Li lowered his eyelids and looked at the menu to hide the flickering loss on his face, but the tingling sensation at the tip of his heart could not be relieved. She has tried her best to avoid her own crankiness, but she often loses her temper in some small things. Just because Jiang Huaining cared about Lu Zhu first, she felt uncomfortable.
"I want to eat stir-fried artemisia vegetables." Shen Li took a deep breath and calmed down a little.
Jiang Huaining wrote it down, entered them into his mobile phone one by one according to the numbers on the leaflet, called the restaurant, and reported the dishes ordered by several people.
At about one o'clock, the four of them had a meal.
Jiang Huaining put the dishes in the plastic box into a white porcelain plate, put them on the dining table, and took four pairs of dishes and chopsticks, which looked like they were homemade.
After eating, Shen Li helped Jiang Huaining clean up the cups, plates and dishes, and took them to the kitchen with ease: "You go and sit, I'll wash it." ”
She smiled at Jiang Huaining, took off the apron on the hook behind the door and put it around her neck, and tied a knot with her hand behind her.
After all, it was a guest, how could Jiang Huaining be embarrassed to bother her: "You can let it go, I ......"
"What's polite to me, I often help my mother wash the dishes at home, it's a trivial matter."
Shen Li interrupted him, pressed two pumps of dish soap, connected half a basin of hot water, and the foam floated up after being washed by the current. She picked up the dishes and chopsticks and washed them skillfully with a dishcloth, and it really didn't look like a raw hand.
Jiang Huaining didn't rob her, and when he came out of the kitchen, he saw Lu Zhu wiping the table with a rag, so he hurriedly walked over and snatched the rag from her hand, and raised his chin: "Go and sit on the sofa and watch TV with Shen Huan for a while, I'll just clean up." ”
Lu Zhu was helpless, went to the bathroom to wash his hands, and sat on the sofa.
Shen Huan often comes to visit the door and takes this place as his home, he lies flat on the sofa, folds his hands behind his head, and tilts his head to watch the unfinished foreign science fiction movie in the morning.
Lu Zhu insisted on watching it for a while, but she really couldn't understand the plot, so she quietly went to the study, picked up the math paper she did in the morning, and focused on the problems she did wrong.
Jiang Huaining corrected it, and she scored 123 points.
This score is not outstanding in the key class, and there are several perfect scores in mathematics in every exam.
She held the pen and calculated on the scratch paper, maybe because she didn't eat long after eating, or maybe she got up too early in the morning, when fatigue hit, and her upper and lower eyelids kept fighting.
After persisting for a few minutes, Lu Zhu decided to let himself go, wrapped his arms around his head, and fell asleep on the desk.
Jiang Huaining took out a jar of jasmine tea from the refrigerator, walked to the door of the study and wanted to ask Lu Zhu if he wanted to drink tea, but he accidentally bumped into the scene of her lying on the table softly, and was stunned for a moment, and then felt funny.
Walking in lightly, looking around, and not finding anything to use, Jiang Huaining had to turn around and turn back, and took a blanket from the bedroom to cover her.
He didn't leave, but sat down in a chair next to her.
Lu Zhu's side face was pressed against the back of his hand, his moist lips were squeezed slightly, and a thin layer of blush on his face was like a pink peach. He couldn't help but want to poke it to see if it felt as soft as he imagined.
By the time he realized it, his fingers were only a centimeter away from her face.
Jiang Huaining stopped suddenly, his gaze shifted, his fingertips rubbed lightly against her hair, and a lock of hair slipped from his fingers and slid back onto her cheek.
It was expected that she would not be discovered, the corners of Jiang Huaining's mouth curled up in the most unscrupulous arc, and the happy mood was displayed on his face.
Shen Li cleaned all the dishes and chopsticks, wiped the cooking table clean, she took off her apron and hung it on the hook behind the door, and when she came out, she didn't see Jiang Huaining and Lu Zhu, only Shen Huan was lying there and the old god was watching a movie on the ground.
Shen Li took a tissue to carefully wipe the water droplets on his hands, and kicked Shen Huan's feet hanging on the side of the sofa: "What about the two of them?" ”
The movie was being broadcast to the most exciting place, Shen Huan was fascinated by it, and he never looked away, and pointed to the direction of the study.
Shen Li crumpled the paper towel that he had finished wiping his hands into a ball and threw it into the trash can at his feet, and walked towards the study. The scene of Jiang Huaining caressing Lu Zhu's hair suddenly broke into her eyes, forcing her to stop.
Shen Li covered his lips in disbelief.
It was clearly a beautiful picture, but she was shocked to see it.
——
In the afternoon, according to the plan formulated by Jiang Huaining to review the key points, Lu Zhu took a nap for more than half an hour, he was in good spirits, listened attentively and seriously, and wrote down a bunch of formulas in his notebook.
On the contrary to her, Shen Li was never able to concentrate, and the geographical graphics on the scroll made her eyes chaotic, and the picture of Jiang Huaining stroking Lu Zhu's hair kept replaying in her mind.
Even though she had noticed a long time ago that Jiang Huai Ning was too different from Lu Zhu, those were just her guesses, and they had not been confirmed with certainty. At least, Jiang Huaining did not admit it personally.
Never before had she been able to feel his heart so intuitively. It's ridiculous that his heart is on other girls, and he has nothing to do with her.
Do you want to give up?
has been in love for so many years, peeked at him so many times, he is the person she hides in the deepest part of her heart, how can you easily let go of it.
He is a human being, not an insignificant object.
"I've caught you, I've been in a daze for long enough." Shen Huan held a black gel pen in the corner of his mouth, rolled the roll into a long cylinder, and shook it in front of Shen Li's eyes, "You won't fall asleep with your eyes open, will you?" ”
He was laughing, but Shen Li couldn't laugh, she lay on the table, buried face down deep in the crook of her arm, choked in her throat, couldn't cry, and said casually: "I'm a little sleepy, don't make noise with me." ”
She closed her eyes, her eyelashes instantly wet with tears, and her nose was very blocked. None of this could match the pain of her heart being clenched and churned.
How so? Does he like Lu Zhu?
I like it.
She couldn't fool herself anymore. If he didn't like it, how could he caress her hair so gently, and how could he spend time and energy making a revision plan for her. She didn't think that Shen Huan had such a big face, in the final analysis, he was just in passing, and the person Jiang Huaining really wanted to help was Lu Zhu.
It's Lu Zhu who is always worried about studying, worried that he can't keep up with the progress of key classes, and afraid that he won't be able to do well in the exam.
Shen Li cried silently for a long time, without being noticed by anyone, and she slowly stopped herself. There was a voice in her heart that persuaded her to stop there, withdraw all her thoughts, and stop thinking about Jiang Huaining. But another voice told her, how do you know you can't impress him if you don't fight for it?
Retreating without doing anything is not her Shen Li's consistent style.
——
After Lu Zhu finished writing a physics question, his eyes were sour, and his knuckles rubbed the corners of his eyes.
The mobile phone on the table vibrated suddenly, and she stopped rubbing her eyes and picked up the phone.
A text message from a mobile company, she read it and put it down.
Wait a minute! Lu Zhu's eyes widened, and she picked up her phone again, the time displayed on the screen was 16:05, and with a bang, her scalp exploded.
The last shuttle bus back to the countryside in the county town is around four o'clock, and if there are few passengers, the driver will delay the departure because he wants to pull a few more people, and it will not exceed half past four at the latest.
Lu Zhu stood up in a panic, muttered "It's over" in his mouth, grabbed the roll on the table and stuffed it into his schoolbag. She was so focused on the questions that she didn't set the alarm, and she completely lost track of the time.
What can I do?
Seeing her flustered, Jiang Huaining raised his eyes and glanced at the wall clock on the wall, only to realize that the time was so late: "Don't worry, it's really not good, I'll take a taxi to send you back." ”
"I'll go to the station first, maybe the last train hasn't left." Lu Zhu hurriedly finished speaking, put on his schoolbag and ran.
Jiang Huaining didn't have time to put on his coat and chased after him.
Shen Huan and Shen Li were left in the study, looking at each other.
Lu Zhu forgot to take the umbrella, opened the door and ran to the elevator, she was lucky, the elevator just stopped on this floor, and the doors opened on both sides. She was so anxious that she rushed in without even looking at it, and the people inside were just about to come out, and the two collided together.
Sun Jingfang stood firm and calmed down, looked at the anxious little girl, and asked with a smile, "What's wrong?" ”
"Auntie, I'm sorry, I, I'm in a hurry to go back, and I won't have a car when it's late." Lu Zhu's face was red, and the speed of his speech unconsciously accelerated, and he didn't dare to delay for a second.
Sun Jingfang was holding vegetables bought from the supermarket in both hands, and one of the bags contained a whole chicken, and the chicken feet poked out of the bag. Lettuce and celery are longer and also poke out of the bag.
She couldn't spare her hand to pull Lu Zhu, and hurriedly comforted: "I saw your mother in the afternoon, and I have already told her, and I will stay at my aunt's house at night, so I don't need to rush back." Don't you have to review tomorrow? It's a hassle to go back and forth in the car every day. ”
