Chapter 12: Sweetness of Caution
After work, Liu Mei, who rarely receives flowers, is in a good mood, and it feels good to walk on the road with such a large bouquet of delicate flowers, which attracts attention. got off the elevator, unconsciously thought about it sideways, picked up the phone and called Xu Mo.
"Hello? Got off work? Liu Mei tilted his head, and his voice was gentle and soft.
"Well, right away" Xu Mo's voice came through the phone, and she could almost imagine his expression when he answered the phone.
"Let's eat out today, I don't want to go home and burn it."
"Huh?" Xu Mo paused.
"What? What's wrong with you? ”
"No, okay, then you wait for me in the company, I'll look for you later."
"No need, there is a new restaurant next door to us, I heard that it is not bad, I will go to the table first, wait for you to come and find me directly!"
"It's okay, you send me the address of the restaurant with the name, and I'll be there in about half an hour."
The two of them, it seems that there has never been a greasy crooked relationship between other couples and you and me, Liu Mei is extremely envious every time she watches other girls rubbing in her boyfriend's arms, because Xu Mo will say "pay attention to your image in public places" every time. After a long time, she has also gotten used to it, so in the days with Xu Mo, the two of them seem to have directly skipped the greasy honey period and directly stepped into a plain married life.
But it's okay, it's really plain! As long as you can be with the people you love, you will be happy in everything you do.
Liu Mei hugged the bright flowers around half a circle, and came directly to the newly opened restaurant on the third floor of the shopping mall next door, fortunately it was less than six o'clock, there were not many people, and there was no need to queue up and was directly led into the two seats on the side, the whole wall is transparent glass, so you can see the scenery and people in the corridor outside, and the career is very good. She looked at and ordered a few of Xu Mo's favorite dishes, so she held her cheeks and looked outside in a daze.
With faint music in her ears and a slight fragrance of flowers, Liu Mei felt that everything today was as beautiful as a fairy tale, and now she just had to wait for her prince to come over, and everything would be complete.
Thinking of Xu Mo, a silly smile appeared on her face.
Just about twenty minutes later, Liu Mei saw Xu Mo carrying a briefcase from the middle of the escalator, she looked at him with a smile, her Xu Mo always wore such a decent dress, black windbreaker, black shirt with gray cardigan, 1.8 meters tall, eyebrows like stars and picturesque, elegant and handsome, walking on the road can always attract girls to peek.
Walking to the side of the corridor, Xu Mo saw her, he smiled and waved, then walked into the restaurant, walked over, put the bag aside, "Did you order?" “
"Well, I ordered it", Liu Mei smiled sweetly.
"What are you laughing at, silly girl?" Xu Mo was a little strange by her, "You are a little weird today, what's the matter?" “
Liu Mei grinned, "Hey, seeing that you have a really high rate of turning back when you walk on the road, the two of us walk together, will there be many women who want to kick me away and stand by your side."
"Nonsense!" Xu Mo also laughed, "I have no money and no power, who will like me, girls are realistic now, so you are stupid!" “
"I'm stupid, I'm willing!" Liu Mei straightened her back, pursed her lips and said, "You are so good, they don't like you as their loss!" “
Xu Mo raised his head and pinched her face, only to find a large bouquet of roses next to him, "Huh? Who does this flower belong to? ”
"Next to me, of course it's mine!"
"Who sent you?" Xu Mo stared at her.
"Guess?"
"It can't be someone who has a crush on you, right?" Xu Mo had a smile in his eyes.
"What? Can't you? Can only someone have a crush on you, can't anyone have a crush on me? Willow eyebrows pursed.
"Of course not, I know that from childhood to adulthood, there are a lot of people who have a crush on you" Xu Mo drank saliva, "Let's talk about it, who sent it?" ”
"Niu Yang, do you remember?"
Xu Mo frowned slightly, "Niu Yang? Just the kid who has been chasing you for more than ten years? “
"Yes!"
"Why is he here? Also working in Sioux City? “
"No, I was studying in graduate school in Shanghai, and I was shocked when I suddenly came here today, saying that I was going to come to Sioux City as an exchange student next semester, so I came to say goodbye to the head snake first!" Willow eyebrows smiled.
The dishes ordered came up one after another, and Liu Mei habitually put the chopsticks of the two people in the boiling water cup and scalded them, and handed them to Xu Mo casually, "Let's eat, handsome guy!" ”
Xu Mo looked at her, feeling a little uncomfortable in his heart, "Xiaomei, you seem to be in a good mood today, isn't it because of this Niu Yang who came to see you?" ”
"What? Are you jealous? Liu Mei raised his eyes and smiled.
"Uh······"
"Of course not, I'm because of this big bouquet of beautiful flowers, the flowers are in my hands, and I don't care who gave them, I like it, so I'm happy!"
"This kind of thing is flashy, it's not as useful as bundling cabbage!" Xu Mo scoffed.
"Oh, if you don't send it, you won't let others send it, don't spoil the fun, okay, brother?" Liu Mei began to be coquettish.
"Okay, okay, don't spoil the fun, you just wait for the withered to clean up the leftover flowers, and then have a funeral flower or something" Xu Mo said while eating.
The two of them ate a round belly, Liu Mei held the flower in one hand, held Xu Mo's arm in the other, and slowly walked in the bright and warm shopping mall, she felt that she was about to be filled with happiness, walking with an unconscious smile, seeing everything is beautiful, and everyone is good.
Passing by the atrium on the first floor, there was a circle of people crowded in front, and there was constant coaxing in the middle, and Liu Mei, who had never liked to join in the fun, also dragged Xu Mo over to see, it turned out to be a marriage proposal, and the boy also occupied a row of cheering groups behind him. At this time, the girl was covering her mouth with tears in her eyes, looking at the boy kneeling on one knee in front of her, and the people around her were laughing and shouting "Marry him, marry him, marry him!" ”
Liu Mei looked at her enviously, and couldn't help but tighten Xu Mo beside her.
Xu Mo looked at the simple girl beside him, and remembered Chen Rui, who had been coming to him frequently recently, and he didn't know what to feel in his heart. Since the last time he watched Liu Mei cry bitterly, he no longer dared to let her know about the things he had been dealing with Chen Rui. Chen Rui is a person with strength, background, appearance and courage, if he can marry her, he can naturally fight for ten years less, but he knows his strength and status very whitely, and if he obeys her at this time, he can only play with her, and he wants far more than that, so when the time is not ripe, he will not give up Liu Mei just like that.
In the final analysis, he still has feelings for this girl, and she is also the best candidate for the most wife, but for Xu Mo, he values his future and career more, he wants power and money, instead of running around for firewood, rice, oil and salt all his life, but today, the sudden emergence of competitors makes him have a sense of crisis, not to mention that Niu Yang is still a strong opponent, so at this time, he is willing to do something for this girl who has everything entrusted to him to make her happy.
He took her hand and walked away, and there was a tenderness in his heart, and the two of them clasped their fingers together and walked home.
Liu Mei hummed a song, put the flower in a wide-mouthed glass, took the clothes, and prepared to take a bath.
Xu Mo followed and squeezed into the bathroom.
Liu Mei smiled: "Why are you?" ”
"Let's wash together!" Xu Mo threw away his serious appearance, his face full of skin.
"Don't ·····" Although the two of them have lived together for more than a year, they have never taken a bath together such an explicit thing, thinking about it, I feel blush, and Liu Mei is face has become a red cloth, she pushed Xu Mo hard, but she couldn't push.
The bath bomb was turned on, the shower was turned on, Xu Mo seriously helped her untie her clothes, and then gently kissed her forehead and helped her wash her long and thick hair.
Liu Mei, who stood still, lowered her head and gently hugged Xu Mo, her heart was both shy and sweet, at this time she felt that there was him in this life, although she had no regrets in death!
The warm bathroom is beautiful.
Afterwards, Xu Mo hugged Liu Mei wrapped in a bath towel and stuffed it into the dry quilt, got up and brought a hair dryer to blow Liu Mei's hair. Liu Mei was wrapped in a warm quilt and put her little head on the side of the bed, Xu Mo sat on a small stool with a hair dryer and played with her long hair, drying it one by one.
The delicate rose looked at the couple of young people in the room shyly and timidly, releasing the intoxicating fragrance of flowers.
It was late at night, Liu Mei lay on Xu Mo's chest, holding his sturdy young body, and his whole body was soaked in sweet happiness.
"Ink?"
"Huh?"
"We ······ Get married! ”
Xu Mo touched her smooth and fine hair, closed her eyes, and said "yes".
