Chapter 336: A man has to have a watch
On the way back when Bai Qin drove me, she said to me: "Xiao Kai's change surprised me, I really didn't expect you to be so methodic." Kodaka, thank you so much, really. ā
I smiled and said, "Sister, don't thank you anymore, I really like this kid Xiaokai, and I get along with him very well." ā
"I've been worried, worried that he's going to cause you trouble."
"No, I was a little worried at first, but later I found out that this kid actually has a lot on his mind."
Bai Qin sighed softly and said, "Yes, since his father died, this child has completely closed himself, and his father has played with him since he was a child, and he also likes his father." ā
"It's okay, it'll be fine in the future, I'm sure he'll get better...... No, he would have been fine. ā
Bai Qin laughed again, she looked really happy, and her smile was very healing.
After driving for nearly an hour, Bai Qin said to me: "Xiao Gao, your home is so far away, do you have to go home every day?" ā
"Well, I rented a house near the company before, but I was retired because of some things, so I went home to live."
"That's so troublesome, you're really too far away, I've been driving here for almost an hour, and I haven't arrived yet."
"Sister, it's really far from your house to my side, but it's much faster to go directly to the inner ring, and you can get to the company in about half an hour."
"That's pretty much the same, it's really tiring to drive more than an hour to commute every day."
As she spoke, she glanced out of the car window again and said, "But it's quite quiet here, with fewer cars and fewer houses." ā
"We used to be a rural area here, and it has only been developed for a few years, and our family has also turned from agriculture to non-farming."
"That's it! Are you demolition households? ā
I smiled and said, "No, our alley has not been demolished, but recently I heard that there are demolition documents coming down." ā
"Do you want to be demolished or not?" Bai Qin asked.
This question really stumped me, because Xiyue had also asked me before.
If it was before, of course, I would not hesitate to say that I hope to be demolished, after all, I can get a sum of money.
But now, even if you get this money, what can you do?
Xiyue is right, if our alley can be preserved, it is actually very meaningful, and Lushan alley also stores many of my memories.
Now that I think about it, if one day Lushan Hutong is really razed to the ground, I may really be a little reluctant at that time.
After a moment of silence, I said, "To be honest, I don't want to be demolished now, but the majority obeys the minority, and this is a document from the government, so what can I do." ā
Bai Qin sighed lightly and said: "Yes, but if you really don't want to be demolished, in fact, you can join forces, and when the pressure comes, maybe you really give up the demolition." ā
I smiled and said, "The point is, I guess most people want to be demolished. ā
"Then it can't be helped."
In fact, there is another way, that is, what Xiyue said, to apply for the World Heritage of our alley, so that it will be protected by the relevant departments.
Of course, I didn't talk to Bai Qin about this, and after chatting, I went to Lushan Hutong.
When I was about to get out of the car, Bai Qin stopped me: "Wait, Xiao Gao......"
I held on to the car door and looked back at her, looking down for something in the front of the car......
"Is there anything else? Sister. I said.
Bai Qin raised her face and smiled at me, and said, "There is a gift for you!" ā
As she spoke, she lowered her head and continued to search.
"Gifts? What? I said.
Bai Qin didn't answer me, lowered her head and continued to search, muttering as she searched.
"Huh? ā" she said, "I remember it was left here, why is it gone?" ā
She turned on the headlights, bent over, and began to look under the driver's seat......
That's when my eyes suddenly lit up!
That's right, it suddenly lit up, like a dazzling aurora suddenly appeared in the sky of the North Pole......
It's the seductiveness in her neckline!
"Hehe, here it is!"
Bai Qin suddenly screamed softly with joy, she quickly raised her cheeks, and my gaze couldn't dodge, just in time to meet her gaze......
She sensed my gaze, sensed where my gaze was found, and her cheeks flushed, and in the light of the headlights, she was in sight......
My expression was very unnatural, like when I was a child, I went into the orchard of the neighbor's house, and I was caught by the hostess of the neighbor's house by stealing the ripe pomegranates that cracked!
I waved my hand in a panic and said, "IāI didn't see anything, sister......"
Oh! My God! I'm lying again!
Bai Qin didn't speak, but her expression was a little unnatural......
She turned around and pulled the tissue, gently wiping the little box.
It took a few seconds before she turned around and held up her hand to me.
"Yes, what is it......" I said.
"Watch." She said, "I don't think you have a watch in your hand, so when I came back this afternoon, I saw a watch in the duty-free shop at the airport, and I bought it because it looked good." ā
I was suddenly surprised: "Sister, why did you give me such a valuable thing!" ā
"It's not expensive, it's not a brand-name watch, and it doesn't cost much."
"That'...... That's going to cost you a lot of money! ā
"You've done me such a big favor, what is this little bit of thought?"
She said and beckoned to me again, "You can put it on and try it on." ā
I was embarrassed because it was the first time a woman had given me a watch.
Bai Qin called me again, and I sat back in the car and took the little rose-colored box with the logo Tissot written on it.
"Sister, Tissot's watch isn't cheap, is it?" I said.
"It's really not expensive, you quickly open it and see if you like it."
I carefully opened the box, the black dial, the brown strap, it looked so high-end.
"How? Like it or not? ā
I smiled and nodded, and carefully took out my watch, which felt very good.
Bai Qin said again: "Put it on and try it." ā
"Sister, it really broke the bank."
"You call me sister, don't talk about breaking the bank."
With Bai Qin's help, I put the watch on, and Bai Qin nodded very satisfied: "Well, yes, you are suitable for this leather strap." ā
It's really good, and it's very pleasing to the eye when I look at it myself.
Bai Qin said to me again: "A man must have a watch, when you go out to talk about business, you have to add points." ā
"Thank you, sister."
Bai Qin looked at me, smiled and said, "You are my brother, of course I have to be good to you!" ā
There was a hint of mischievous flavor to her smile.
"But I didn't do anything for my sister......"
"Why not, you see how much Xiao Kai has changed now."
Bai Qin said, picked up a small pair of scissors, and said to me: "Don't move, I'll help you cut the tag." ā
As she spoke, she reached over the scissors and cut off the tag on her watch.
Just as she was about to put the scissors back, her hand was accidentally touched by my elbow, and the scissors in her hand were thrown out.
Bai Qin quickly reached out to take it, and my hand reached out like lightning.
At this time, Bai Qin's hand just reached my thigh, I grabbed the scissors first, and the moment I withdrew my arm, I took her hand back......
Her hand was right on my lap and my hand was on hers......
At this moment, I felt like my blood was clotting!
It's as if time has frozen, and I can't walk anymore.
I looked at the back of her hand with wide eyes and could still see the green tendons in the whiteness, and I didn't dare to raise my face to look into her eyes......
