Chapter Seventy-Eight: The 'Save My Sister' Project
The National Day holiday lasts for seven days.
Because Ling Yue was coming back, Ling Xiao planned to take Zhu Shan home.
October 1st, 7 a.m.
Zhu Shan stayed up all night, and was sleeping soundly at the moment, when she suddenly felt hugged by the whole body, and there was a hot breath all over her body.
Very uncomfortable.
But she was sleepy and didn't open her eyes.
Ling Xiao took a deep breath, and his voice was hoarse that had just woken up: "Shanshan, get up and run."
Zhu Shan didn't move.
Ling Xiao tightened his arms and leaned into her ear to say it again.
This time, after he finished speaking, he also kissed her ear, and then along the back of her ear, to the back of her neck, and then to the back of her shoulder...
No matter how sleepy Zhu Shan is, she can't ignore the touch of this numbness. And she has a feeling that if she continues to pretend to be dead, Ling Xiao will be endless.
She turned around, still not opening her eyes, her little face pouted into his arms, with a coquettish nasal voice: "I don't want to."
"What you said yourself last night, you want to join me today."
"But—" Zhu Shan pursed her lips, then breathed evenly, and seemed to have fallen asleep again.
After not hearing a sound for a while, Ling Xiao grabbed her waist, "But what? What excuse to think about it for so long?"
Zhu Shan twisted her waist and said softly: "You tossed me last night."
"You're not admitting it after the fact?" Ling Xiao's eyebrows softened, and he kissed her forehead, "You obviously said it was very comfortable, and you also said that you liked it."
Zhu Shan's eyelashes twitched, and then she slowly opened her eyes.
Her thoughts gradually returned, and she realized that they had been talking about a large-scale topic early in the morning???
Zhu Shan's ears turned red, turned her back to Ling Xiao, and her tone was a little rushing: "Anyway, I don't want to go now!" If you say it again, you just don't feel sorry for me, you don't love me!"
Ling Xiao: "......"
When Zhu Shan was dazed, she heard Ling Xiao say in her ear, "I love you, love you".
I don't know how long it took, Ling Xiao asked Zhu Shan to get up again.
Zhu Shan covered her ears and hid under the quilt: "I don't want to run!"
Then, she felt Ling Xiao slap her buttocks.
Zhu Shan felt annoyed, and pulled the quilt open, the sunlight outside showed her power, which told her that it was not early.
Zhu Shan immediately looked at the bedside table, on which the black frosted electronic clock showed that it was ten o'clock.
She didn't dare to delay the time, so she immediately got up to wash and pack her things.
When everything was ready, Zhu Shan ran out and saw Ling Xiao sitting lazily on the sofa watching the live broadcast of the military parade.
Regarding her appearance, Ling Xiao only raised her eyelashes slightly.
Zhu Shan trotted to the foyer, put things on the cabinet, hurriedly changed his shoes, and urged him: "Come on, Ling Yue is almost here."
After she changed one of her shoes, she found that there was no sound behind her, and turned her head to see that Ling Xiao was sitting there like a big Buddha, unmoved.
Zhu Shan took off her shoes again, ran over to pull him by the arm, and dragged him up: "Ling Xiao—"
In just a dozen seconds, Zhu Shan gave up.
She rolled her eyes, sat down, and tilted her little head to look at him.
After thinking for two seconds, she grabbed his arm and shook it gently: "Husband, I'm going to pick up my brother."
Sure enough, Ling Xiao turned his head suddenly, and his slightly frowning brows were all eased.
Zhu Shan continued, "Let's leave for the airport now, okay?"
Ling Xiao nodded, then raised his eyelashes: "Call again."
Zhu Shan: "......"
The National Day holiday is well deserved.
The street lamps on both sides of the road are all hung with red Chinese knots, and the roadside shops and high-rise buildings are replaced with slogans that read "Celebrate the National Day".
And Ling Xiao and Zhu Shan had been stuck in traffic for half an hour.
So, they were late.
When Zhu Shan picked up Ling Yue's phone, she was very unreasonable, so she admitted her mistake: "It's all my fault, it's me who got up late."
After a few words of reassurance, he hung up the phone.
It was late when I arrived at the airport
an hour.
Zhu Shan held the phone and looked around and walked through the crowd.
Zhu Shan asked into her phone, "Are you in the east?" Which side is east?"
She looked left and right, subconsciously walked to the right, and one didn't pay attention, bumped into a suitcase, and threw herself down.
Fortunately, Ling Xiao dragged her back, otherwise her head would have blossomed.
Ling Xiao looked a little impatient, wrapped her in his arms, and then hooked his fingers: "Give it to me."
Zhu Shan reacted and handed the phone over.
I don't know what Ling Yue said on the other side, Zhu Shan only heard Ling Xiao's unhappy tone: "Wait for you, come over by yourself."
Then he hung up the phone.
The flow of people at the door is still very exaggerated, dragging suitcases back and forth.
Ling Xiao blocked Zhu Shan behind him.
After waiting for more than ten minutes, Ling Yue finally appeared with a backpack on his back.
Zhu Shan immediately greeted him and greeted him unheartedly: "It's hard work! Good work!"
Ling Yue glanced back, and naturally put his hand on Zhu Shan's shoulder: "Let's go eat hot pot?"
Zhu Shan nodded: "Yes, I'll treat you, you can order whatever you want."
The three of them walked to the parking lot.
Ling Yue took off the side of the bag behind his back, unzipped it, and said mysteriously, "Peppa, I brought you something good."
Zhu Shan craned her neck, curious, "What?"
The jade pendant of a little Peppa Pig is extremely good-looking.
Ling Yue: "My mother sent it back."
Zhu Shan took it, with a cold hand: "Thank you."
Ling Yue glanced at Ling Xiao, walked around behind Zhu Shan, stood between the two, and then took out a George of the same style from his bag: "Brother, do you think I look good?"
Ling Xiao glanced at it and said disdainfully, "What's so nice about pigs?"
Ling Yue dared to be angry but didn't dare to speak, she sighed in her heart, turned her head and asked Zhu Shan, "Is it good-looking?"
"It's beautiful!" Zhu Shan couldn't put it down, and looked at it over and over, "Look at its little hands, it's so cute."
Ling Yue: "Do you like it?"
Zhu Shan: "I like it."
Walking to the parking lot, Zhu Shan subconsciously walked to the co-pilot.
"Peppa." Ling Yue called her.
Zhu Shan turned her head, and Ling Yue had already opened the backseat door. He raised his eyebrows, "You come and sit, I'll talk to you."
Ling Xiao's gaze swept over, Ling Yue swallowed his saliva, and pretended not to see it.
Along the way, Ling Yue's mouth never stopped, chatting about the delicious food and fun in the northern capital, and agreed to go over to play with Zhu Shan next time.
During this period, Ling Xiao seemed to be the driver of the two of them.
When I arrived at the hot pot restaurant, it was already a small afternoon, so I didn't have to wait for a seat.
When Zhu Shan sat down to read the menu, Ling Yue took a step ahead of Ling Xiao again and sat next to Zhu Shan.
Ling Xiao laughed angrily.
But in public, he didn't embarrass him, just slapped him on the back of the head.
After sitting down, Ling Xiao gave Ling Yue several modest looks.
I don't know if he really didn't see it, or if he pretended to be confused, anyway, his behavior was unrestrained.
It wasn't until the bottom of the pot was boiling and the vegetables could start scalding that he didn't get his head dry.
Zhu Shan was halfway through eating and received a WeChat message from Shu Qiwen.
Shu Qiwen: [Little cutie, do you have time to eat today? 】
Zhu Shan looked at Ling Yue next to her and replied to the message.
Zhu Shan: [Sister Qiwen, I'm sorry, my brother came home today. 】
Shu Qiwen: [Okay! 】
Shu Qiwen: [What a pity! 】
The word "regret" made Zhu Shan feel a little guilty inexplicably, and she pouted.
Ling Xiao noticed her expression and asked casually, "What's wrong?"
Zhu Shan's tone was sullen: "Sister Qiwen is looking for me to eat."
"Today?" Ling Xiao frowned slightly, and put down his chopsticks, "I'll send you there."
Zhu Shan glanced sideways at Ling Yue.
Ling Xiao immediately understood, narrowing his eyes slightly, inhumane: "Don't worry about him!"
Ling Yue was half-chewing a piece of luncheon meat, and when he heard this, he was frozen on the spot, and his eyes widened: "???"
Zhu Shan smiled, "No, I have already apologized to Sister Qiwen, Ling Yue finally came back once."
Ling Xiao's tone was cold: "I said, don't worry about him!"
Zhu Shan pursed her lips, it seemed that Ling Yue's series of operations had really provoked Ling Xiao.
Ling Yue seemed to have finally returned to his soul and realized his pitiful family status: "Brother! Am I your own brother?"
Ling Xiao glanced at him, "You can't."
Ling Yue: "......"
Zhu Shan played a round game: "Okay, okay, let's continue to eat, don't quarrel!"
Ling Xiao seemed to want to say something, but he didn't say anything.
Zhu Shan noticed that he wanted to speak and stopped, she only thought that his desire to speak stopped because of Ling Yue.
On the way home, the traffic jam began again, and it was almost five o'clock when I got home.
Ling Yue, who had slept all the way, seemed to be still entangled by sleepy insects, and walked directly to the yard after getting out of the car: "I can't do it anymore, I want to sleep for a while."
Zhu Shan got out of the car and tiptoed at his back and yelled, "What do you want to eat at home that night?"
Ling Yue didn't reply: "Whatever!"
It seems to be really sleepy.
Zhu Shan turned around, there were no wooden rattan chairs on the side of the small courtyard, and on the other side of the fence wall, there was a small red roof and a rusty red window bar in her memory.
Ling Xiao pressed her shoulder with his hand and turned around, "Don't look at it."
Zhu Shan sniffed, there were tears in her eyes that she tried to restrain herself, and she drilled into Ling Xiao's arms: "Is that family still living?"
Zhu Shan's house was sold a few years ago.
Ling Xiao smoothed her hair: "No, they went abroad and were vacant."
Zhu Shan let out a crying "oh".
Ling Xiao's chest rose and fell slightly, sighing, "I knew that you would cry when I came back, so I won't bring you back."
"I'm fine." Zhu Shan's small hand wrapped around Ling Xiao's waist, "I'm a family now, and I'm not sad at all."
Obviously crying, but he said that he was not sad.
Ling Xiao didn't contradict her, and lowered his head and kissed her hair.
The discomfort in Zhu Shan's heart was really swept away by the gentleness.
Zhu Shan diverted the topic: "I haven't been back for a long time, shouldn't I clean it first?"
"No, I ordered someone to clean it up in advance."
"Shall we go grocery shopping?"
"Okay."
When she came back from shopping for groceries at the mall, Zhu Shan was already bouncing and not feeling sad. She could still point to the side of the road and babble, "This used to be a basketball court, wasn't it?" I remember you came often!" or "This kindergarten is still there!" ......
Some pains, after facing them, are crossed.
Dinner was cooked by Ling Xiao at home, and Zhu Shan was in charge of doing it.
When the meal was ready, Zhu Shan went to call Ling Yue, but she didn't scream, so she could only hand over this heavy task to Ling Xiao.
Sure enough, Ling Yue was a guy who bullied the weak and was afraid of the hard, holding the head of the chicken nest, yawning, and sitting at the dinner table.
Ling Yue was very sleepy, and the chopsticks in his hand fell out twice.
Zhu Shan couldn't help laughing at him, "What are you doing at night?"
The person who was still too sleepy to open his eyes immediately came to his senses and began to complain, "Sleep? I stay up until two or three o'clock every day, and you don't know my mentor......
Ling Yue began to bara bala endlessly.
Zhu Shan secretly poked and poked at the culprit Ling Xiao. His complexion did not change, he picked up the dishes slowly, and even gave Zhu Shan a chopstick.
Ling Yue saw Zhu Shan eating Ling Xiao's vegetables, his eyebrows and eyes were crooked, and he had the illusion that Snow White was eating poisonous apples, and he said straightly: "Peppa, you eat less, you are fat again."
Zhu Shan: "!!"
"I didn't, I lost a few pounds." Although Zhu Shan said this, she really put down her chopsticks angrily.
"Smack—" Ling Xiao's chopsticks were placed heavily on the table.
After a while, the whole living room was silent.
Ling Xiao looked at Ling Yue: "You don't want your mouth, I can sew it up for you."
Ling Yue: "......!"
Ling Xiao looked away and muffled, "Eat."
His tone had a big impact on Ling Yue, who had been stumbling all afternoon.
Then, Ling Yue picked up the bowl and quickly pulled the rice in the bowl, without even holding the vegetables.
Zhu Shan was inexplicable, and also began to pick up the bowl and pull the food.
Ling Xiao grabbed Zhu Shan's wrist and whispered, "I didn't say you."
Only then did Zhu Shan put it down, and she looked at Ling Yue who was bored eating: "He's so strange today."
"He's full." Ling Xiao sandwiched a piece of beef for Zhu Shan, "You eat this."
Such a heartwarming scene, Ling Yue, the rice cook, didn't see it at all, and was still brainstorming the "Save My Sister" plan.
