Volume 2 Tongxin Garden Chapter 197 My high school days are now like a dream
The clerk took the dress out of the fitting room and hung it back in its original place, and when Yu Minghan saw the dress, he couldn't help but sigh:
"This dress ......"
Hao Xu heard it, and didn't know what he wanted to say, so he walked over to the dress and carefully examined the white dress.
Bai Xuqi also followed him, thinking that he had taken a fancy to this dress.
"This skirt? This dress is really good-looking. ”
Hao Xu then said: "Then why don't you give it a try?" ”
"Huh?" Bai Xuqi was naturally very embarrassed, but looking at Haoxu's sincere eyes, he still agreed.
When she came out of the fitting room, the clerks couldn't help but marvel at it, and for a while they couldn't even pick out the right words of praise to describe the brilliance of the girl in front of them.
"How?" She asked Haoxu cautiously.
Haoxu replied with a smile: "It's very suitable for you, this skirt is worn on you, so I can't think of anyone else who can match this skirt." ”
When Bai Xuqi heard his undisguised praise, she naturally couldn't help but have hot cheeks, she wanted to quickly escape from this situation that made her heart flutter, so she hurriedly said to the clerk, as long as this is it.
But it wasn't until this time that Haoxu remembered that he didn't have any money at all, so how could he buy this dress as a gift for her?
Just when he was in place and his heart was so weak that he couldn't do it, thank God, the store manager appeared at this time, and as soon as he saw Bai Xuqi in that dress, he immediately decided to give her this skirt for free.
It's so good, Hao Xusan, that you didn't fall into that embarrassing situation.
Bai Xuqi and Haoxu both hurriedly thanked him, for Haoxu, this store manager was tantamount to his savior.
"Thank you, manager, when will I find a time to make your walk less painful." Haoxu made up his mind in his heart, this kind store manager, let's find a time to let him go on the road in advance, and he should be grateful to him.
Bai Xuqi wanted to change back into his original clothes, but Haoxu said that he was wearing this dress, and he wanted to see more. Although Bai Xuqi was shy, she still didn't shirk it.
The two of them were walking side by side on the street at this time, Bai Xuqi was wearing that white dress, really like a princess in a fairy tale, which caused the surrounding passers-by to look sideways.
"But where are we going?" Haoxu's sudden accosting shocked Bai Xuqi, who was deeply in a shy mood.
"Ahh So, at least, let me treat you to a meal! ”
"Hmph~ I'm a little stumbling when I speak, okay, then let's go to your house. But ......"
"Huh?"
"But if your family sees you coming home with a boy, they won't think much of it, will they?"
"Shhhh No, we, we're just friends now, and they won't be cranky! ”
Hao Xu saw her anxious appearance, it was really cute, and unconsciously showed a slightly doting smile, the person in front of him was really cute, and after a little teasing, his eyes were about to turn red.
It's just a pity that the feelings in the game can't be taken seriously.
"Are you far from home? If it's not far, let's walk there, because I want to walk with you a little longer. ”
"Ah!! It seems like it's still a long way away! Me, I'll call Uncle Li to pick us up! Wait a minute! ”
Bai Xuqi hurriedly fled to the side and made a phone call, the girl in the white dress looked in a hurry, a bit like a rabbit running away.
Haoxu leaned against the telephone pole on the side of the road and watched her back like this.
Yu Minghan asked with some concern: "You guy, you don't really like people, do you?" ”
Haoxu asked rhetorically: "Why, do you have to sacrifice my love for your love?" ”
Seeing that Yu Minghan was choked by this sentence and couldn't say a word, Haoxu felt funny.
"Don't worry, I'm just performing, didn't you say it too, I'm very talented in acting."
Yu Minghan still didn't speak, but Hao Xu could already sense the change in his mood, and he felt funny again.
"What? So scared that I'm in love with her? ”
"Yes, Tianqiong, this love is fruitless, if you really fall into it, you will only get hurt in the end."
"I know, I know, it's better to say that all love doesn't come to fruition, right? Even pure love like between you has not been able to overcome the cruel reality. ”
"Maybe that's the case, Tianqiong, maybe the strength of two people is not much stronger than the strength of one person, in the face of the huge society and nature, the love condensed by two people is still so insignificant."
"Huh...... If I had known that this would be the case, wouldn't it have been nice to stay away from it in the first place? That's what you want to warn me, right? ”
"Yes, yes, Skydome. But I had no choice, I really couldn't abandon her, I was lucky to think that as long as I worked hard enough, I could protect her for a lifetime, but the power of people was still too weak. ”
"Human power is limited, so why don't you be human?"
"I want to, too, but I don't have a stone ghost face."
The two of them talked for a long time, Bai Xuqi finally ended the phone, she told Haoxu to wait a while, Uncle Li will drive over immediately.
Hao Xu asked with ulterior motives: "Then, you should have already explained our relationship to him, right?" ”
"Ahh In the end, it is a girl who is in love, and she has such provocative words, Bai Xuqi not only didn't feel offended by the other party, but her heart pounded again because of this sentence, "No, Uncle Li is not a cranky person, and besides, there is nothing between us, we have to deliberately explain the relationship!" ”
"Oh?" Haoxu saw her red ears again, and wanted to continue to say some offensive words to see her reaction, but for some reason, he didn't say it.
It's too much, if you do that. Obviously, the other party has never said that he likes himself, how can he think that the other party also has a good impression of him?
Women are really awkward creatures, sometimes they want to but still say they don't want to, is it because of reserve or some other reason? Men, don't be stupid, if you are really so dull and don't understand the meaning of the other party's refusal, but really think that she is refusing, you, maybe in the end you will be deducted as "incomprehensible" hat, and finally watch her leave you.
The two waited silently in place for a while, looking at her standing aside with a somewhat uneasy look, Haoxu thought it was very interesting.
After waiting for a while, a somewhat ordinary-looking sedan came, it seems that this young lady doesn't like to be in the limelight, and even the car is so ordinary, it can be regarded as low-key.
Uncle Li was shocked when he saw Yu Minghan for the first time - Miss had never brought a male friend home before, and this one's words ...... With his appearance, maybe he can really impress Miss?
"Miss, it's okay, you have a good eye, right?"
"Uncle Li! Don't make fun of me! He's my savior, that's why I want to invite him to my house for a meal or something......"
"Hahaha, miss, I haven't said anything yet."
"Huh!!"
"By the way, Miss, I don't think you have seen this dress before?"
"Ahh Yes, he gave it to me! ”
"Oh?" Uncle Li moved his gaze to the boy who was watching them silently next to him with interest, his dark eyes and a faint smile on the corner of his mouth were indeed unique.
"Hello~" Haoxu saw him looking at him and beckoned to him to say hello.
"Hehehe, hello, hello. I heard that you saved Miss, and I would like you to express my personal gratitude to you first. ”
"No, no, we're acquaintances," Hao Xu turned his head to Bai Xuqi beside him, "right?" ”
Bai Xuqi was first startled, then stunned, and then nodded quickly.
Uncle Li laughed when he saw Bai Xuqi being so well-behaved in front of this boy. He beckoned the two of them to get into the car, and then drove towards Bai Xuqi's house.
The destination is a manor, which was originally a wedding gift from Bai Wanai to Bai Xuqi's parents, but soon after Bai Xiyue gave birth to her, she divorced her father and left, leaving only Bai Xuqi and her father to live here. However, Bai Xuqi's father is often busy with the chairman's position, and he can't often accompany Bai Xuqi, usually the servants are responsible for Miss Bai Xuqi's daily life, and Uncle Li is responsible for picking her up and going to school.
The car drove to the gate of this manor, and there were guards outside the big iron gate, and when they saw that it was Miss Bai's special car, they respectfully opened the door and let them go. At the center of the manor is a castle-like building, with two roads leading to the castle and a variety of gardens, including fountains, benches, and even a place with many children's entertainment such as slides and seesaws.
"Shouldn't this young lady next to me play there when she was young?" Looking at the gardeners in the distance not only taking care of the flowers and plants, but also maintaining the slides and seesaws, Haoxu couldn't help but think of the scene of a father taking a little girl who was only three or four years old, playing on the slide accompanied by a group of maids.
It seems that there is a very warm feeling, and people can't help but feel that it would be better if my mother was here.
Bai Xuqi noticed Haoxu's gaze, put it on the children's playground equipment, and explained with some embarrassment that it was indeed a place where her father took her to play when she was a child.
Occasionally, my grandfather would come here to see her. Her grandparents died one after another when her father was still studying, and her grandmother also died in childbirth when she gave birth to her mother, Bai Xiyue.
Therefore, Bai Wanai was endlessly fond of Bai Xiyue, and he thought that the extra part of his love could fill the part of love that Bai Xiyue had lost from his mother, but he didn't expect that such doting would instead develop Bai Xiyue's presumptuous character.
What about Bai Xiyue? Is she really just spoiled simply because she was "doted" by her father?
Hao Xu and Bai Xuqi came to the front of the castle, Uncle Li parked the car on the avenue in front of the castle, and then respectfully invited the young lady and the friends invited by the young lady, and then parked the car himself.
When all the servants here saw Bai Xuqi coming back, they all saluted respectfully, and Bai Xuqi hurriedly asked them to excuse themselves.
"Greetings Miss Bai." A person who looked like a maid appeared, she first saluted Bai Xuqi, and then her eyes unabashedly pointed directly at Hao Xu beside Bai Xuqi, through her eyes, it was obvious that there was a touch of sharpness in it - she was very wary of the person Miss Bai brought back.
"Miss Bai, forgive me for talking too much, I don't know who this person is next to you?"
"Sister Xiwen, don't worry, he is my savior, when I met an angel outside before, he stepped forward to save me, so I want to invite him to our house to play, which can be regarded as repaying him."
"Oh?" The head maid named Xiwen looked at Hao Xu with the slightest determination in her eyes, and Hao Xu looked at her, and it was obvious that there was a warning in the other party's eyes.
What else could it be a warning? is nothing more than a warning to him, a guy of unknown origin, don't think about the pearl of the Bai family, let alone whimsically think that if you save Miss Bai's life, you can have a relationship with the Bai family.
So Hao Xu replied very interestingly: "It's just a little favor, it's really not enough to worry about, I'm just an ordinary person with no name and no surname, fortunately Miss Bai appreciated it, and it is really my third life to be invited here." ”
Hearing Haoxu's words, Bai Xuqi hurriedly explained: "No, no, no! I am truly grateful to you, and, and ......."
Seeing that his young lady's face was flushed and dying, Xiwen quickly coughed twice, saying that since it was a guest invited by the young lady, the servants should do their best to take care of each other, otherwise the subordinates would not satisfy the guests, and they would also lose the face of the host.
Bai Xuqi was very happy to see Xiwen so cooperative, and she quickly said that she hoped to arrange a sumptuous dinner to entertain her life-saving benefactor. Seeing Miss's diligence, Xiwen agreed, and was worried in his heart - Miss should not really be fascinated by that guy, right?
It seems that I still need to pay more attention, while thinking so, Xiwen went to the kitchen to make arrangements.
Bai Xuqi saw Xiwen leaving, and hurriedly explained to Yu Minghan: "Sister Xiwen, she is like this, and she is very strict with my usual etiquette, so she may think she is more scary when you first see her, but in fact, she is a very good person!" ”
"Hahaha, I know, don't worry. Actually, when I first saw her, I thought she was a little familiar, as if I had seen her somewhere. ”
"It shouldn't be possible, Sister Xiwen usually only stays in the manor and won't go out easily...... But Sister Xiwen has a younger sister, and it seems that she is also a nanny or something, so it seems to be called Chen or something...... I don't remember a little, Sister Xiwen rarely mentions her. ”
"Morning? It seems like...... Haven't heard of ......."
Yu Minghan saw that Haoxu didn't remember, so he reminded him that on the first day he came, in the Harold Basement, the big sister who came to greet him for dinner was called Chen.
Haoxu suddenly realized, that's right, it's the gentle big sister he only saw once, but I feel that the temperament of that sister and this Xiwen is very different.
Bai Xuqi was very happy, she took Hao Xu around her home, and told him about the history of almost everything in the castle, and the memories contained on it. She unabashedly showed her past to Hao Xu, hoping that Hao Xu could understand her more, but she didn't know that this guy with Yu Minghan's appearance and Haoxu's heavenly soul might only become her nightmare.
