"Do you remember that little fox badge you gave me?"

"That...... Yes. You Xuezhen nodded.

"Then I went to see the book, which was very thin, and I finished it in the store in one afternoon, and there was a sentence in it that said, 'If you come at four o'clock in the afternoon, I start to feel happy from three o'clock.'" Originally, I didn't remember this sentence at all when I finished reading it, but it was the past two days that you agreed to me to pick you up, and suddenly I kept thinking about it. During the period before I went to pick you up, the store was closed, I cleaned up the tables and chairs, washed the bowls in the sink, counted the accounts, and then rode to pick you up. ”

You Xuezhen was stunned when she heard this.

Meng Shilong pursed his lips slightly.

"So...... The person I want to enjoy is not you, it's me. It's when I'm enjoying being with you. ”

You Xuezhen was shocked by his words, like a typhoon passing through her mind.

She looked at him and said with some confusion, "But why...... Actually, I've been wondering why you like me these days. ”

His face was serious: "Don't you believe it? ”

"No, I'm a little confused...... You are very nice and nice people...... Shouldn't have come to like me. Obviously, I still like other people. She lowered her head again, "How can I deserve your such affection." ”

Meng Shilong thought that if he wanted to say that it was worth it, then he could list a lot of her good points. From the very beginning of the meeting, she was the only one who cared about the wound on his arm and wished him a happy holiday. Give him the bottle of perfume she thinks he shouldn't be swallowed up by the smell of oily smoke. The moment when he insisted in the secret room that he shouldn't be left behind and squeezed down, or maybe he deliberately bought a birthday gift for Grandma even though he was not a relative...... She doesn't seem to have a clear idea of what is good about herself.

But he won't enumerate these things, because none of them have anything to do with him liking her.

Although it may sound very unreasonable, maybe love is so unreasonable, not logical, and not about cause and effect. He doesn't like this person because of the kindness she exudes to him at some moments, and it's hard to say which character makes him obsessed, when he comes back to his senses, he can always notice her silence, and he is afraid of the darkness but smiles and says that he wants to enter the secret room alone, and when the contact lenses are uncomfortable, he will take them to look at the screen in the dark, and he wants to play the merry-go-round for fear of queuing up to take up everyone's time, so he only peeks with his spare eyes......

He didn't want her to have such moments of silence.

When he thought about it, he had never thought about whether it was worth liking or not. If you think about it, it's like expecting her to come to his shop to sell his own dishes so that he won't lose money.

But what he thought was that if she could come into this shop and eat his food, she would be happier because of the taste, and if it was too much, she would be able to linger.

When he came to pick her up last night, along the way, he heard the fire truck roaring in the street. It sounded like love was sounding a horn, warning him that this novice should escape, know the proportions, and not fall too deep.

There was really this moment, he just wanted to press the accelerator to the maximum, faster, faster, so that he could see her in the next second. He didn't care if the horn hissed so loudly that it woke up the whole city.

If this is a misfire of love, he has decided to plunge into it as fast as possible, and if he can't escape, then see if his heart can be burned into a relic, and then leave it to her as a souvenir.

He didn't say anything at the end, and the hand that was holding her shoulder moved in the middle, pulling up the hem of his scarf and tying a knot around her neck, as if hanging himself here.

In the black Tesla that had not driven away in the distance, Ye Wanbai sat in the driver's seat and watched this scene, and the fogged front glass made his face blurred.

Chapter 43

The days of part-time work are repeated over and over again, monotonous and slow, but because of Meng Shilong's relationship, the originally boring days have more elusive variables, time becomes very fast, and it is Chinese New Year's Eve in a blink of an eye.

The day before Chinese New Year's Eve, on the way Meng Shilong sent her there, the two walked along the mountain road, and he asked her, "How are you going to spend tomorrow?" ”

At that time, she only said that she could not go to him because of something, and did not say any specific plans.

At the moment, she was a little weak and hesitant, but he guessed it and asked directly: "Ye Wanbai didn't go back?" ”

"Hmmm......"

She wanted to explain that she changed her mind because of Ye Wanbai's mother, but it sounded like a defense, if he asked rhetorically, don't you want to be at all? I'm afraid she can't deny it.

Fortunately, Meng Shilong did not continue to ask, and reported to her: "Grandma is here today, she will stay in Xirong for a while, and if you are free these days, you can come and see her at any time." ”

You Xuezhen hurriedly agreed: "That's great, I'll definitely come!" ”

On Chinese New Year's Eve, she still slept until the evening, and when she saw news from the family group, her father and mother finally remembered her and sent WeChat to ask her how she was doing today.

She couldn't help but roll her eyes, and now asked if it was a little too late?

Zhen Zhi Stick: "Ye Wanbai is also in Xirong"

Zhen Zhibang: "We will go to the supermarket to buy vegetables in a while, and then go to his apartment to cook Chinese New Year's Eve dinner"

Without saying a word, her father sent a red envelope and asked her to buy more. Her mother sent a video over, in the video, her sister is writing calligraphy on the table, she has been practicing calligraphy recently, the writing is not beautiful, crookedly, You Xuezhen will squint her eyes and approach the screen, only to see that what her sister wrote is: Sister, Happy New Year, happy every day.

You Xuezhen sighed very softly.

The age gap is too large, and she rarely has the opportunity to get along with her sister. She is an adult, but she is still a child, but this child still does not hesitate to express his closeness to her in the limited relationship.

Therefore, every time I have a grudge against this family, I feel even more that this resentment cannot be resolved, and I can only say to myself Don't be hypocritical, forget it, you have grown up. My sister is a child who deserves so much love, because she is a soft child herself.

Then she wondered if her parents thought the same way, so they could be so at ease.

She smiled, and then also posted a red envelope in the group, and her father posted a yellow face expression with a question mark.

Dad: "Why did you return the red envelope again?"

Zhen Zhibang: "[baring teeth] That's the money I earned from my part-time job, a red envelope for my sister."

Subsequently, it was shown that Dad accepted the red envelope.

Dad: "[Like]"

Dad: "Then I'll keep it for your sister first."

Mother: "We're amazing!"

Zhen Zhi Stick: "[Baring Teeth]"

Seeing that it was almost time to make an appointment with Ye Wanbai, she made a perfunctory expression to end the family greetings, turned off the screen, got up to clean herself up, and before going out, she continued the habit of going out in the past two days, wearing a windproof suit and a pair of white gloves.

Half an hour later, Ye Wanbai will drive to her school gate, his eyes sweeping over her hand.

He asked casually, "Got new gloves?" ”

She nodded vaguely, she wore it every day when she went out these days, and slowly got used to it. The air conditioner in the car was running so hard that she felt hot and took off her gloves and stuffed them in her pockets.

He stepped on the gas pedal and continued to ask nonchalantly, "Didn't you think gloves were in the way before?" ”

You Xuezhen prevaricated casually: "Because it's too cold in the second half of the night." ”

"Yes."

You Xuezhen glanced at him, and always felt that he had something to say.

The car soon drove to the nearby supermarket, close to the meal, there were a lot of people who came to buy, and the supermarket played congratulations on your fortune~, Ye Wanbai pushed the cart, she was responsible for taking it, and put it in the cart according to the list listed, but also stuffed a lot of snacks that were not on the list. When passing by the freezer, I couldn't help but throw in two boxes of Baxi, they didn't stay in the cart for two seconds, and they were thrown back to the freezer by Ye Wanbai.

He floated over and said, "You will come to your aunt in two days, don't eat this." ”

You Xuezhen looked at the next day, it was true.

She couldn't remember the days herself, but he could remember them magically.

You Xuezhen turned to point to the wine in the freezer: "Do you want to take the wine?" Wait a minute, take it to your friend's party. ”

"Take it."

A case of wine was moved into the cart, and the things were already full, and the two of them picked out some nuts and other snacks one after another. After settling the account and returning home, You Xuezhen checked the price of the small ticket along the way, and couldn't help but be surprised: "Is the supermarket here expensive or because of today's Chinese New Year's Eve?" Why are things so expensive! ”

Ye Wanbai carried two large bags of ingredients into the trunk and casually agreed: "Is it expensive, it's okay." ”

"The corn I went to the morning market last time was only 6 cents, and the one I just bought cost 10 yuan, which is ten times worse, and this is not expensive?"

"Where is it so cheap?"

"Just the morning market near Meng Kee Barbecue."

Ye gradually put things away, and closed the rear car cover with a "snap", the sound was slightly louder, which startled You Xuezhen.

She was just about to complain about why she was so vigorous, but Ye Wanbai had already taken the first step to speak, and said with a smile: "Your relationship is really close now." ”

You Xuezhen paused and stopped the topic.

The two of them got into the car, You Xuezhen felt that the atmosphere was dull and didn't want to sit in the co-pilot, so she wanted to lie down in the back row under the pretext of being sleepy, but she didn't really lie down after really sitting down, and half-shrunk into the position.

Ye Wanbai glanced at the rear mirror of the car, retracted his gaze and clicked on the radio in the car, and the background music is also congratulations on your fortune~, he frowned, cut to the music station, and the host said in a straight voice: "Next, let's listen to a good song by Gigi - "Smoky". ”

[I suspect you always know why you never confide in you.]

If the street lamp does not lead the way for a long night, if the ten fingers meet together and escape in a second]

With the singing, the atmosphere was not so dry, You Xuezhen chatted with him about the topic, wanting to break the strange atmosphere that had been permeating.

"Today is actually the thirtieth anniversary of the Chinese New Year's Eve, which is amazing."

He said nonchalantly: "Amazing what? ”

"Although we usually visit the house together on this day at home, this is the first time that only the two of us have ever visited."

"Hmmm......"

"It feels fresh." You Xuezhen remembered, "But it seems that there was another time when we were alone for the New Year, your parents went out on a trip, leaving you alone at home, and I went to your house to accompany you." ”

"I don't remember."

It's not that I don't remember the tone, and it's clear that I've been making a lot of character.

You Xuezhen patiently ran out, raised her voice and asked, "What have you been unhappy with since just now?" ”

Ye Wanbai didn't answer.

After a long time, he said to the horse: "I saw it." ”

You Xuezhen frowned: "What? ”

"Meng Shilong came to pick you up the other day."

"Oh......" she asked a little unnaturally, "so what?" ”

"He gave you the gloves."

You Xuezhen paused, nodded and admitted: "Yes." ”

"So why did you lie just now?"

"Because it's my private matter." You Xuezhen's throat itched, his attitude was really strange, which made her heart inevitably go up and down, and she couldn't help but be aggressive, "Friends don't need to report these things one by one." It's like you're not going to tell me which girl you're giving today. ”

"So......" Ye Wanbai savored the meaning of this sentence, "are you talking now?" ”

"Not ......"

"Why didn't you talk about it, he obviously likes you."

When the road met a red light, he stopped, and the rear lights of the car in front of him illuminated his face red, and his expression was distorted in this red.

He tapped his fingers on the steering wheel and added, "You seem to like him a lot, too." ”

- Are you really ignorant of why I didn't talk about it?
