Chapter 5: A Girl's Heart
"Do you think I'm acting a little frivolous?"
Li Shi carefully observed Zhao Ji sullenly, and suddenly felt a little unhappy, and the expression on his face seemed to ask.
"I don't know what I'm supposed to do to please you. You want me to pretend to be a lady, don't you? ”
"Humph! Will you be the image of a lady? ”
Zhao Ji thought to himself.
"No matter what I disguise, you won't be happy, it's the same result anyway, it's better to return my original face, do whatever you want, don't need to pretend!"
Li Shi was also thinking.
The two had a silent conversation in their hearts.
"I like you! But I don't like the way you are. ”
"I know."
At this time, Li Heng saw the fame and praised in a low voice: "Ah Shi, you are good!" Wouldn't be naughty anymore, would it? ”
Li Shi nodded.
Hearing my brother's praise, I suddenly became shy. His face flushed, and his long, slightly curled, slightly upturned eyelashes drooped.
Immediately sat down on the bench, one hand still tapping on the stool. He became humble and respectful, and became gentle and elegant, as if a child had done something wrong.
Zhao Ji turned his head and stared.
For the first time since he met, he took a serious look at Li Shi's girlish face, there was a layer of fresh fluff, like a freshly picked peach, and he really wanted to go up and take a bite.
Zhao Ji's heart was beating faster, and his face was blushing like an apple.
However, this face is the most fickle of the countless faces that Zhao Ji has seen in this world.
After a long while, the face became completely pale and colorless, like a white lotus flower. The eyebrows on his face were twisted into pimples, and even the green tendons on his neck could be seen clearly.
"The girl's change of face is determined by her heart. And a girl's heart is like a needle in the ocean. I can't catch it, I can't guess it. ”
Zhao Ji thought to himself.
At that moment, Zhao Ji felt that Li Shi's face had changed again, as if showing a motionless and focused expression. It seems to have gotten bigger, more serious, and a little more rustic.
I looked at her eyes again, almost melancholy, like a blooming flower. Although melancholy, it is full of life power and beauty.
Li Shi was completely quiet, with a faint fragrance and endless aftertaste.
Seeing that Zhao Ji and Li Heng got up and left, they also stood up and walked behind the two men. The steps are light, as graceful as the willows in March.
The three of them walked around the Tusi ruins, calmly walked around, and looked around to enjoy the scenery - the majestic Tusi City, which was majestic and horizontal, and the majesty was no longer there.
Li Heng was full of praise and amazement.
Zhao Ji pouted.
At this time, it was almost time for lunch, and I didn't feel hungry.
They came to the kiosk again.
Li Heng paid for the middle-aged woman with her mobile phone, bought beer, bread, ham sausages, salted duck eggs and other food, carried a food bag, and walked over slowly.
When he got closer, Li Heng grimaced at Zhao Ji without malice, cleared his throat and nostrils, coughed lightly, and joked loudly with Zhao Ji.
"Come, have some beer, celebrate, and wish your sweetheart health and happiness!"
"What, what? Zhao Ji, do you already have a ......" This question suddenly blurted out from Li Shi's mouth, but as a girl, she felt embarrassed, and pretended to ask, "Could it be ...... Brother, do you already have such a sweetheart? ”
"Who doesn't have a sweetheart in their heart?" Li Heng asked rhetorically, "Ah Shi, who is your sweetheart?" ”
Li Shi blushed suddenly, and a red cloud floated over, smiling but not answering.
She pondered for a moment, and then her face changed endlessly, and her face changed like the sky, and appeared into a defiant, almost impudent smile.
After visiting the Tusi ruins, the three decided to return.
On the way to the parking lot, Li Shi became restless again.
Seeing a big tree on the side of the road, she went to break off a long branch, rested it on her shoulder like a soldier carrying a gun, and kept shouting the "one-two-one" password in her mouth.
"Li Shi, have you ever been a soldier?" Zhao Ji asked.
"Nope!"
"And how do you know that?"
"I learned it on TV, and my father was a soldier."
"Oh......"
At this time, a tour guide holding a yellow flag led a group of about fifty or sixty tourists, most of whom were middle-aged and elderly people, to loudly introduce the scenic spot with a loudspeaker, and walked towards him.
It looks like this is a tour group.
These tourists are all from other places to travel here, and they all behave very reservedly and have tired faces.
Seeing Li Shi's actions of carrying the branches, all of them seemed to have given an order, and all of them looked at her with cold and surprised expressions.
Li Shi completely ignored it.
The three went to the parking lot, opened the door, and got into the car.
This time, it was Li Heng who drove the car, Zhao Ji sat in the passenger seat, and Li Shi sat in the back seat.
As if to deliberately provoke them, she sang loudly, laughing and playing more often.
Back in the courtyard, she immediately went into her room and didn't come out until lunch.
Carefully combed through the hair. The thick black shawl hair, like a black waterfall, hung in the air, draped over the delicate neck.
I wore the most beautiful dress, mainly pale yellow, green lace, and two pale yellow belts at the waist of the skirt, tied with a beautiful bow, and a cute girly figure on the chest.
She sat at the table, eerily quiet. The demeanor was very urbane, almost too formal, just tasted a little food and drank the milk from the cup.
This is the most obvious and obvious way to do so. Li Shi wants to play a new role in front of Zhao Ji - a polite, quiet, and well-educated lady.
Li Heng didn't care about her.
It can be seen that Li Heng is used to indulging his sister Li Shi in all aspects.
Li Heng only occasionally looked at Zhao Ji gently, and shrugged his broad shoulders slightly, as if he wanted to say: "She is still a child, please bear with her!" ”
As soon as he finished lunch, Li Shi stood up, bowed, put on his hat, and asked Li Heng: "Brother, can I go to see Aunt Lily in the afternoon?" ”
"You've never asked my permission to do anything, why is this time different?" Li Heng asked with an unchanged and somewhat embarrassed smile, "Do you feel lonely with us?" ”
"No, I spoke to Aunt Lily on the phone yesterday, and I promised her to see her this afternoon."
"Oh, that's it!"
"And I think that if you two men stay together, it will be better to communicate, and he will have to say something to you, maybe you will have more fun chatting without me bothering you!"
In Li Shi's mouth, of course, he refers to Zhao Ji.
With that, he walked away.
"Who is Aunt Lily? Do you still have relatives here? Zhao Ji asked a little puzzled.
Seeing Zhao Ji asking, Li Heng tried his best to avoid Zhao Ji's gaze.
"Yes. Aunt Lily is the wife of my father's comrade-in-arms. ”
"Where are your father's comrades-in-arms?"
"He's dead."
"How did you die?"
"He died trying to save my father during an earthquake."
"Why didn't your father come to see her?"
"He can't come."
"What's wrong with him?"
"He's dead, too."
"How did your father die?"
"He used to be in prison, and then he died of depression after being released from prison early."
"What crime did your father commit?"
"...... embezzlement of public funds"
……
Li Heng lowered heavily. Perhaps because he was afraid that Zhao Ji would ask about his father again, he brought the topic to Li Shi and Aunt Lily.
"Aunt Lily, kind-hearted, has moved here for many years. She likes Li Shi. Li Shi also likes her, sympathizes with her, and even pities her a little. I think that most of the reasons why Li Shi is anxious to visit Aunt Lily are due to pity and sympathy. As you can see, she's pampered to me. ”
Li Heng was silent for a while, and then said, "But what do you say to do?" I'm not anyone, let alone her. I should be tolerant of her. ”
Zhao Ji didn't say anything.
