Sir, what if it's too cold?
Chapter 022
After getting on the bus back to the company, Xu Muran suddenly began to think about a question.
Zhou Qing wants to invite her to dinner, so she...
She looked down at the crumpled white T-shirt on her body, and sighed very melancholy: Just wear it like this?Or is it better to change into suitable clothes?
She looked at her own reflection reflected in the glass window, her face was a little vain, and she didn't put on any makeup. If she changed her clothes into a white dress, she would look like a female ghost.People, as expected, still have to keep exercising so that they can have a healthy body...
Wait, stop.
I was thinking about something and nothing.
Xu Muran frowned with a headache. Where can she go to change clothes when she doesn't go to the village or back to the store?
When the car stopped slowly at the gate of the company, the moderate voice of discussion slowly brought her back to reality.
"Hey Brother Li! Look at that girl, isn't she pretty!"
"Beautiful! Look at that breast, that leg, tsk tsk tsk... I don't know who is so lucky!"
Zhou Qing put on some makeup, and leaned beside the car in a red velvet dress, apparently waiting for her.Colleagues queuing up to get off the bus are all talking about this beautiful woman, only she is thinking——
This man is dressed so nicely and is waiting for me.
Twilight is sinking, except for Zhou Qing, everything in the world is fading.
Xu Muran got out of the car and jumped in front of Zhou Qing: "How long have you been waiting?"
"Not long," Zhou Qing raised his eyes to look at her, and said softly, "Are you tired?"
She shook her head: "It's almost time to rest, then we..."
"Xu Muran!" Cheng Xuewei ran behind her in three steps at a time, grabbed her hand, and said bitterly: "Second Master just told me in the car to hold a meeting before disbanding, you How do these ears hear?"
Immediately afterwards, she saw Zhou Qing behind Xu Muran, paused for a while, and then simply nodded at him.
...Yeah, she actually forgot about it.
Xu Muran said apologetically to Zhou Qing: "Then I'll go up to have a meeting first, and come down to find you after the meeting."
"Okay," Zhou Qing nodded, and handed her another package: "Let's change clothes."
Xu Muran didn't realize it: "What clothes?"
Zhou Qing: "I forgot to return your clothes last time."
It was obviously a recent event, but it seemed to have passed for a long time.Xu Muran squeezed the handle of the packaging bag tightly, smiled at Zhou Qing, and followed Cheng Xuewei upstairs.
Cheng Xuewei quietly asked her curiously: "What does that person have to do with you?"
She replied casually: "A friend."
Cheng Xuewei touched her arm self-consciously: "Is it really your friend?"
"...Yeah, what's wrong?"
"Didn't I go to look for you just now, and I was taken aback by her eyes, and it was so cold, as if I had taken someone's love away," Cheng Xuewei said sullenly, "Oh, I still get goosebumps thinking about it now."
Xu Muran couldn't help laughing: "You read it wrong, you...she's quite a nice person."
The other party shrugged: "Anyway, it really surprised me just now."
A thought suddenly jumped into Xu Muran's mind: She wanted Zhou Qing to smile more.
Obviously have such a good face, but keep a cold face all day long, it really seems a bit violent.
She is obviously such a good person, but she exudes a high-cold aura all day long and keeps people away from thousands of miles away. She deserves more love from more people.
In the conference room, Bai Meng waved his arms and said helplessly: "I know you are tired, ah, I am tired too, I also ran 2000 meters, what can I do, I am also very desperate!"
The laughter exploded coaxingly, and Bai Meng continued: "Since you are tired, then don't talk small words and do small actions, just finish listening quickly."
"Today, there are two main things to inform everyone. The first one is that we will be doing a special issue. The topics have been selected. We will interview young talents in various high-end academic fields. After the manuscript is approved, we will pay twice the bonus."
"What about the second one," he said, "the superiors have allocated three places for us to go abroad for exchange at public expense, but the detailed rules have not yet been released, and the date is about half a year later. I hope everyone will actively sign up and strive for approval!"
Someone asked: "Second Master, can you take your family with you?"
Bai Meng: "What family?"
"Wife, my wife and children are hot on the kang!"
Bai Meng slapped his eyes hard: "Wait until you find a girlfriend first!"
Everyone laughed again.Bai Meng saw that everyone was already "in Cao Ying and his heart is in Han", so he simply broke up the meeting.
Xu Muran hugged the clothes Zhou Qing gave her and went to the bathroom, intending to touch up her makeup before going downstairs after changing her clothes.As soon as she entered the compartment with her front foot and locked the door, someone followed her back and made a phone call at the sink: "How are you doing? Mom asked you to come over for dinner tonight."
"Me? I'm fine at night, I'll go too."
Xu Muran was busy changing clothes, so she didn't pay attention, but the next sentence made half of her body go numb: "The new one from the magazine? Do you remember this thing?"
The magazine has only two newcomers this year, one is Cheng Xuewei, and the other is her.
Xu Muran only felt cold hands and feet, wondering if he would be "lucky" to be that half.
The other party smiled absent-mindedly, and his voice was a little erratic: "Can you be more generous? Hold on to this trivial matter, and you too, don't talk about it every day... It's okay, I can figure it out, and you can leave it alone." gone."
Xu Muran didn't dare to catch his breath the whole time, until he clearly heard the other party leave, then he raised his hand and stroked his chest, which was beating extremely fast.
Who could it be that has such a big resentment towards either of them?
Until getting into Zhou Qing's car, this question still lingered in her heart for a long time.Zhou Qing noticed that her expression was wrong, reached out and turned down the air conditioner, and asked her, "What are you thinking?"
"I didn't think about anything." Xu Muran shook his head hastily. She could just leave this question to her alone, and she didn't want to bother Zhou Qing; what's more, there is not enough evidence now, and any assumptions and speculations are like crumbling castles in the air, and they are all false.
She thought that she had to wait patiently until the other party showed her feet.
Seeing that she didn't want to answer, Zhou Qing changed the subject without showing any trace: "This dress... I seem to have accidentally picked up the wrong one. Is it still suitable?"
The package that Zhou Qing brought her was indeed not the black suit she wore that day, but a gray-blue fishtail skirt.Xu Muran opened his mouth, not knowing what to say: "Mmm..."
This dress is very beautiful, setting off her delicate collarbone and round shoulders. The background color is gray-blue, atmospheric and calm. Looking from a distance, it makes people feel that "it can only be seen from a distance but not played with."
However, Zhou Qing was so caring, so caring that he brought her a brand new unopened nu-bra.Xu Muran only remembered that he looked at the "70b" on the outer packaging and swallowed very hard.
Although it seems too late to say it now, her size is indeed larger than the number on the outer packaging.
right!It is greater than!
Xu Muran cleared his throat: "I like this dress very much, thank you, Teacher Zhou."
Zhou Qing nodded, didn't look at her, and said in an admiring tone: "If you want to wear this skirt, you will be very happy."
Is this complimenting her?
It seems... I'm really praising her!
Xu Muran felt his face turn red in an instant, and was at a loss for a moment, not knowing what to say: "Ah..."
Zhou Qing smiled lightly, turned on the switch of the car CD, and said, "Didn't I tell you to listen to the English version of this song last time? Come on, listen to it."
"skies are gray..."
Xu Muran kept to the beat, and swayed his body gently from side to side.
"w dear, how much 'away..."
After listening to the song, Xu Muran straightened up and murmured: "The protagonist in this song must love her lover very much."
She also wants to meet someone who loves her so much, but... she is a little melancholy: at this moment, her lover might still be a fertilized egg.
Zhou Qing turned on the left turn signal and pretended to ask Xu Muran casually: "What kind of person do you like?"
I must be crazy, Zhou Qing thought.
She thought she had never been such an impatient person, but she degenerated into a reckless and impatient primitive person in front of her; she tried her mind so clumsily, regardless of the flaws that she might not be able to hide, she just Want to ask for an answer.
"The person I like—" Xu Muran thought for a while, then smiled and lay back on his seat: "Mr. Zhou, what kind of person do you like?"
"Me?" she said, "I don't know either, it depends on fate."
Xu Muran smiled even more happily: "I, like you, also depend on fate."
"It's just that this fate is best for Yushu Linfeng, eight-pack abs, wealthy, gentle, polite, positive, and—"
"The most important thing is that all the rivers, lakes and seas in the world just drink from me."
She finished speaking in one breath, and looked at Zhou Qing aggrievedly: "I deeply suspect that my fate has not yet been born."
Zhou Qing said slowly: "This... such a fate seems really hard to find."
"I'm not in a hurry." Xu Muran unconsciously rubbed his wrist, and said softly, "I'll wait."
Wait until my unrivaled hero rides colorful auspicious clouds to marry me.
The car stopped slowly at the entrance of the hotel, and Xu Muran's legs went limp as soon as he got off the car.
The price of dinner in this restaurant is even higher than that of the Japanese food restaurant she, Zhao Yi and Xu Zhiyang ate last time. If you order a steak here, you can eat enough to eat in a Japanese food restaurant.
Xu Muran turned his head and glanced at Zhou Qing who was handing over the car keys to the parking boy, and silently swallowed the thought of "I've made a fortune, it's not suitable to eat here today, let's find another one", and tidied up awkwardly. He patted his hair and obediently waited for Zhou Qing to come over.
In Zhou Qing's eyes, this scene took on a different look.
Her beloved girl stood under the bright lights of the courtyard, looking down at the dust flakes that might be on the tail of her hair. The arc formed by the meeting of the mandible and the slender neck is more beautiful than the water droplets formed in zero gravity.
At that moment, she remembered the song that the old professor hummed casually in class, "God, she is so beautiful that tears filled my eyes."
She walked towards Xu Muran slowly, reached out and grabbed the other's shoulder: "Go in, is it cold?"
Xu Muran smiled: "It's not cold."
She felt the length of Zhou Qing's palm brushing against her shoulder, and when the other party withdrew her hand, she was still a little nostalgic.
She suddenly felt a little cold: she really couldn't wear more off-shoulder skirts.
The two strolled into the lobby, and a waiter approached softly to ask if there was a reservation.Zhou Qing reported a series of numbers, and the other party nodded: "You two, please follow me."
Even if he was following Zhou Qing, Xu Muran was still a little flustered.
This is the first time she has come to such an advanced occasion, and even needs to pay attention to de. She is like a child who is caught off guard and suddenly enters the adult world. She is so nervous that she seems to have misplaced her hands and feet, and she doesn't know how to place them.
She secretly raised her eyes to look at Zhou Qing, the other's every move was very natural, as if she was very talented for this kind of occasion, her red dress was indescribably harmonious with the surrounding decorations.
She watched Zhou Qing softly respond to the waiter's just right strike up a conversation, Zhou Qing showed the other party a decent social smile, deeply felt her own insignificance.
It's like she is the guest and Zhou Qing is the host.
The waiter brought the two of them to a dark golden arch and left.Xu Muran was hesitating, Zhou Qing took a step ahead of her, and thoughtfully opened the door for her, and gently brought her waist towards where he was with the other hand without making a trace.
Only then did Xu Muran see the scene inside the door.
To her surprise, it was actually a small concert hall.It was almost full, but very quiet, almost no one was talking.
Zhou Qing led her to a corner to sit down, seemingly casually said: "Remember when I said a few days ago that I had a concert ticket to take you to see?"
"One of their squads is playing here today, and it won't be too long or leave you starving."
Xu Muran nodded lightly, and an indescribable emotion welled up in his heart: "Okay."
In fact, she likes music very much, but last time when Zhou Qing asked her out...
No, she bit her lip irritably, don't, don't think about it.
They... are good friends, that's all.
The lights in the venue dimmed, and thunderous applause rang out from the audience. After the conductor took the stage, he bowed deeply to the audience, then turned to the orchestra, and raised the baton in his hand.
At first, a burst of brisk and melodious string music sounded, and then gradually turned into low-pitched wind music, easily bringing people into the emotional environment of the music.
Xu Muran listened very seriously, until Zhou Qing fell asleep on her shoulder, and then pulled her back from illusion to reality.
She looked down at Zhou Qing, looked at her eyelashes, the bridge of her nose, and her lips, and had to admit that the love given to people by God is different.
Some people can be amazingly talented and famous in history when they are born, while some people can only end up being sprinkled into grains of wind and sand after exhausting all their twists and turns.
And Zhou Qing obviously belongs to the former.
Xu Muran thought, she has a relatively high achievement for her age, she is already very good, she shouldn't be so tired.
Seeing Zhou Qing fell asleep, she boldly touched the top of Zhou Qing's head.It was just as she had imagined, the hair was soft and itchy to the palm of her hand.
Xu Muran sniffed his fingertips subconsciously, and it smelled of the same shampoo fragrance as last time, which was a fresh plant smell.This not-so-familiar scent gradually brought her back to the back seat of the car under the night, and Zhou Qing's hand under her palm.
At first glance, it was the hands of a pair of scholars. The fingers were thin and white, and the nails were round and clean. Because of the wrong posture when writing, there were slight calluses on the middle finger and index finger.
Xu Muran thought, the two of them are the same, because of their families, their journey from childhood to adulthood has been smooth and smooth, and they are both young people who have not experienced any hardships in life and are devoted to reading sage books.
It's just that the person who is leaning on my shoulder now has a thicker reading, and probably the sages will also favor her a bit.
At this moment, when the music was playing to the climax, Xu Muran reached out and straightened Zhou Qing's head, hoping that she could sleep more comfortably.
It was too late and then quickly, when her arm crossed Zhou Qing's chin, Zhou Qing didn't know whether it was because she was too deep in sleep or what, her head drooped straight down, and her lips just touched the mouth. Xu Muran's arm left a dark red lip mark on it.
In an instant, it seemed that the synapses of the whole body were concentrated on the arms, Xu Muran's whole body went numb, and his mind was filled with the soft texture of that moment.
This is probably the first "kiss" she has received from outside her family since kindergarten.
Obviously it wasn't the direct contact of lips to lips, but she still blushed—this, this... oh, I can't speak, I'm going to call the police...
With a red face, she straightened Zhou Qing's head, and turned to deal with the strange idea behind the soft texture that she didn't even know where it came from.
I just posted it accidentally, everyone will be careless sometimes.
Could it be that you used too much force just now and distorted her position?
If she wakes up...
As soon as this idea came out, Xu Muran was so frightened that he immediately looked down at Zhou Qing.
Fortunately, she didn't wake up.
After confirming, she didn't dare to do it again, she only listened to the music passing into her ears absently, and began to think about a crucial question——
When to eat, she is so hungry.
When Zhou Qing woke up, it happened to be the end of the whole concert, and the audience had just started the encore, and there was darkness both on and off the stage.
She blinked her eyes in annoyance, and she actually fell asleep... Then she realized where she was now, she just fell asleep on Xu Muran's shoulder.
As soon as this idea appeared, Zhou Qing smiled amusedly: I intended to be her shoulder, but I didn't expect that the position was reversed in the end.
When she moved, Xu Muran felt it.She gave way to Zhou Qing and asked her softly, "Are you awake?"
Her warm air lingered on her neck, making Zhou Qing's throat feel a little dry, so she moved away calmly: "...um."
In the next second, she heard Xu Muran asking earnestly: "Is it time to eat in a while?"
Zhou Qing couldn't help laughing, and raised her hand to touch the top of her hair: "Well, it will be fine in a while."
The lights on the stage were turned on, and the whole concert was completely over.
The two came to the revolving restaurant on the top floor and sat down following the guidance of the waiter.The lights in the restaurant are a bit dim, giving it a misty night feel.The guests at the next table were talking softly, and everything seemed very pleasant.
The waiter ran over with the drink list in small steps: "What would you like to drink?"
Zhou Qing handed the list to Xu Muran: "Take a look."
As soon as Xu Muran read the first page, he was blinded by those long prices.She pretended to be calm and handed the drink list to Zhou Qing: "I'll drink whatever you drink."
The corner of Zhou Qing's lips curved: "Are you sure?"
"Ah."
Zhou Qing happily closed the wine list: "Two glasses of water."
……what?
Zhou Qing: "I want to drive, I can't drink." After a second, he added: "You said it yourself, it's the same as what I drink."
Xu Muran smiled: "Alright then."
After a while, two glasses of water were brought up, Zhou Qing picked up one of them, and smiled at Xu Muran: "Congratulations on the complete success of your sports meeting today."
Xu Muran imitated her and gave her a light touch: "Thank you, Mr. Zhou."
Zhou Qing glanced at her and said carefully: "The result is not important, the most important thing is to enjoy the process."
Xu Muran shook his hands and almost showed embarrassment: Could it be... Zhou Qing heard...
It wasn't just Zhou Qing, probably everyone in A heard the loud and clear "Congratulations to Xu Muran for winning No.1000 in the women's 2m event..."
She suppressed the surging desire/desire in her heart to smash/destroy the loudspeaker a thousand times, pretending to be calm and said calmly: "Well, I know."
If she could do it all over again, she would never take part in running events no matter if she was rolling around to be cute or to /dead/appear/forced. It would be nice for An An to have a fun rope skipping or something.
Wait, what if the broadcast says "Congratulations to Xu Muran for winning No.1 in the women's fun rope skipping..."
It seems... such a scene is also a bit shameful.
She looked down at the row upon row of lights and buildings on the ground, and casually brought up a topic: "This is the first time I have eaten at this restaurant."
"Well," Zhou Qing nodded seriously, "I think you should like this store."
Xu Muran: "What kind of food is better?"
Just in time, the waiter brought over the menu, so Zhou Qing pointed at the menu and showed her one by one: "This steak is good...Squab pigeon is also good...Great fish? No, no, that one is very fishy..."
Xu Muran was able to focus on the dishes at the beginning, but then he became a wild horse that had run wild, and he couldn't pull it back.Her gaze couldn't help moving with Zhou Qing's index finger, like a cat chasing the light spot of a laser pointer, jumping up and down all the time, if she couldn't catch it, it would be like claws scratching her heart.
"Then I'll get you a steak, how about it?" Zhou Qing finished her sentence, but saw Xu Muran was distracted in a daze, she waved her hand in front of her: "How is it?"
"Ah," Xu Muran came back to his senses, "Okay, that's it."
Zhou Qing nodded without saying a word, reached out to call the waiter, and explained the details of the dishes to him in a low voice.
Xu Muran waited for Zhou Qing to finish ordering, and suddenly said strangely: "Mr. Zhou, why don't you like to laugh?"
"Don't like to laugh?" Zhou Qing frowned and thought for a while, "I really don't like to laugh."
Seeing that she thought so, Xu Muran continued his efforts: "I think it's better for you to smile more. Look, you look so good-looking, and you look even better when you smile. Why are you so cold when you face others?"
As long as she is a woman, she is willing to listen to others praise her good looks.
There was a tinge of red on Zhou Qing's thin skin, but his voice was so steady that it didn't show at all: "When did I show cold face to others?"
Xu Muran said: "Just this afternoon, my colleague came to me and said that I was taken aback by your eyes. Although I knew you didn't do it on purpose, I thought at the time, if you talk about you, there is something wrong with laughing." How pretty..."
While listening to Xu Muran's rambling, Zhou Qing thought wickedly: that look, she did it on purpose.
Seeing that person rushing over and grabbing Xu Muran's hand, she felt a little angry, but she couldn't show it, and then she thought——
He glanced at her lightly to see what was happening on the other side.
Now it seems that the effect is good.
The emotions in her heart should not be exposed, she was managing her own thoughts, while dealing with Xu Muran with "um/um/ah/ah", until the steaming dishes were served, she adjusted her skirt , smiled at Xu Muran: "Eat."
The steak is fried until it is half-ripe, and there are faint red bloodshots inside, which gives people a visual impact; when you carefully cut a small piece of it, you will have another wonderful feeling when you bite it into your mouth: it is tender, juicy, and full of fragrance.
Xu Muran is not very good at cutting steaks, and the cuts are crooked and fragmented. She watched Zhou Qing, who was opposite her, swiftly cut the steaks into small, regular-sized pieces, and slowly felt a sense of unease in her heart.
It seems that she is now placed in the center of a field, with many spotlights surrounding her, and everyone is watching her, and she doesn't even know the script by heart, so she just stands there in great fear, burying her head a little lower, and then lower.
In the next second, Zhou Qing handed her the steak he had already cut in front of him, and took away the horribly cut meat in front of her very flatly: "Cut it for you, let's eat."
"Ah... Thank you Teacher Zhou." This made Xu Muran even more embarrassed, and she asked Zhou Qing: "What about you?"
Zhou Qing smiled and shook his head: "I'm fine, you don't need to worry about me, just eat."
Seeing what she said, Xu Muran didn't ask any more questions, and silently lowered his head and started eating.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Zhou Qing stood up and said to Xu Muran, "I'm going to the bathroom."
Xu Muran nodded: "Well, good."
She watched Zhou Qing's figure disappear at the end of the corridor, and then she felt a little more relaxed.She wiped her mouth, then looked furtively around again, making sure no one was looking at her, and then quietly stretched out her hand to adjust her nu-bra.
This feeling of wanting to cry without tears...is too uncomfortable...
What she didn't expect was that just as her hand touched her back, before she had time to touch the joint, the light "swiped" and disappeared.
There was a brief exclamation in the restaurant, and then there was no sound.
The world has returned to darkness and silence, so quiet that even the heartbeat is like a loud bang that shakes the sky and the earth.
After a few seconds, a bean-sized light lit up in the distance, and then slowly moved towards Xu Muran.
Looking at the lamp, she felt her heart was about to jump out.
Behind the faint and indistinct light, a woman in a red dress can be seen faintly.
Seeing the light getting closer and closer to him, Xu Muran saw the other person's face clearly, and instantly relieved all the burdens on his body: that's not Zhou Qing.
As for why both of them were wearing red dresses, it was probably just a coincidence.
The woman stops at a table next to them, and the candles reflect the shocked face of the man sitting at the table.She put the candle on the table, knelt down on one knee, held a ring in her hand, and asked the man with a trembling voice: "Would you...will you...marry me?"
The diners on the side had already entered cheering mode from short-term shock: "Marry her, marry her, marry her..."
The focus of the audience is on the attitude of the man.The man pursed his lips, and the muscles on his cheeks twitched faintly, as if he didn't know what to say.
After a while, he ignored the woman's earnest eyes, and the people around him applauded vigorously, got up without saying a word, and strode away.
At this time, the lights came on, and everyone bowed their heads knowingly.
Xu Muran shook his head with a heavy heart, and heard Zhou Qing sigh softly: "You."
There's nothing wrong with you, he's just...just...
He just doesn't like you that much.
Everyone has their own destiny, some people have it at their fingertips, some people can't ask for it.
She turned to Zhou Qing: "Are you back?"
"Yeah." Zhou Qing nodded briefly, and handed her a box: "A gift for you."
"Ah, thank you..." Xu Muran was surprised, and then remembered what Zhou Qing said on the phone in the afternoon: I bought you a gift because I thought it was very suitable for you.
What kind of gift would make Zhou Qing feel very suitable for her?
In other words, what kind of image does she have in Zhou Qing's eyes?
Full of curiosity, she gently opened the box, and when she saw the contents, she took a small breath.
It was an emerald hairpin that was light green all over, with occasional emerald green blooms in it.
Xu Muran took the thing into the palm of his hand to play with, and felt that this hairpin was even better: the texture in his hand was cold at first, and then warm and moist, as if this thing had spirituality and could breathe.
She looked at it for a long time, put the hairpin back into the box, and pushed it to Zhou Qing: "This thing is too expensive, I can't accept it." Although she didn't know jade, she knew that it was expensive at a glance.
As if she was expected to answer like this, Zhou Qing bent the corners of her lips and said with a smile: "Put it away, I have some fate with this thing."
Yesterday in Yunli Street, she was called to the stall by the old lady, and she immediately fell in love with this hairpin. She thought, if Xu Muran wore this hairpin, it must look good.
So she asked, "Mother-in-law, how much is this hairpin?"
Unexpectedly, the mother-in-law shook her head with a smile and said, "That's not for sale."
Zhou Qing was a little discouraged, and tried to fight with others: "But I really like it..."
"Girl, I think you look a bit like my old neighbor. Is there anyone with the surname Zhou among your grandparents?"
This question made her startled: "I, my surname is Zhou."
After chatting with each other, they found out that this mother-in-law used to be an old classmate of Grandpa Zhou Qing. The two lived on the same street, but they had to separate because of the turmoil.
The jigsaw puzzle of memory was put together piece by piece. When talking about the joy, the mother-in-law stood up tremblingly, and put the hairpin into Zhou Qing's hand: "This is the dowry hairpin brought by my mother-in-law. No one has been with me for a long time. The old woman chatted, today, this hairpin, I...I will give it to you..."
Zhou Qing naturally couldn't agree, so he gave up 2000 yuan to the old man and walked slowly home with her, so he gave up.
When they came to the house, the mother-in-law looked at Zhou Qing with a smile, and said in a strong local accent: "This hairpin is for marriage..."
She gave this hairpin to Xu Muran because she had some inexplicable selfishness—if her doctoral supervisor knew about it, she would be so angry that she would blow her beard and stare—a good physics student actually went to engage in idealism. How embarrassing for him!
There is a saying in "Leave a Wife": Get married as a husband and wife, there is no doubt about love and affection.
I give it to you just to make hair with you.
After hearing Zhou Qing's cause and effect, Xu Muran also felt very miraculous. She took the hairpin from Zhou Qing's hand, tied it in a bun, and asked, "Does it look good?"
Zhou Qing nodded and said with a smile, "It's pretty."
As long as it's you, everything looks good.
After drinking and eating, Zhou Qing called the waiter to pay the bill.Xu Muran was about to take out his wallet with heartache, only to see Zhou Qing simply sign, and the other party conveniently put away the bill and left.
Xu Muran opened his mouth, but did not continue to ask.
Zhou Qing probably doesn't want others to discuss this kind of thing too much.
When we walked to the hotel gate, the car had already parked at the gate.Zhou Qing took the car keys from the parking boy, raised his chin at Xu Muran, and said softly, "I'll take you home."
All the way to the downstairs of Xu Muran's house, Zhou Qing turned to look at her: "Go up, pay attention to safety."
"En." Xu Muran nodded solemnly, "Thank you today, Teacher Zhou." After she finished speaking, she smiled and added: "There are too many facts to thank you for."
Zhou Qing was about to say "It's okay", when she heard her seriously: "Mr. Zhou, let me give you a hug, okay?"
For this kind of thing, the answer is of course "yes", how can it be bad?
So Zhou Qing leaned over and hugged Xu Muran lightly.
It is easy to leave, but the aftertaste is long. Except for theoretical physics, she can't think of anything better than what she is experiencing now.
Xu Muran got out of the car, turned around, and smiled embarrassedly at Zhou Qing: "Good night."
Zhou Qing wants to invite her to dinner, so she...
She looked down at the crumpled white T-shirt on her body, and sighed very melancholy: Just wear it like this?Or is it better to change into suitable clothes?
She looked at her own reflection reflected in the glass window, her face was a little vain, and she didn't put on any makeup. If she changed her clothes into a white dress, she would look like a female ghost.People, as expected, still have to keep exercising so that they can have a healthy body...
Wait, stop.
I was thinking about something and nothing.
Xu Muran frowned with a headache. Where can she go to change clothes when she doesn't go to the village or back to the store?
When the car stopped slowly at the gate of the company, the moderate voice of discussion slowly brought her back to reality.
"Hey Brother Li! Look at that girl, isn't she pretty!"
"Beautiful! Look at that breast, that leg, tsk tsk tsk... I don't know who is so lucky!"
Zhou Qing put on some makeup, and leaned beside the car in a red velvet dress, apparently waiting for her.Colleagues queuing up to get off the bus are all talking about this beautiful woman, only she is thinking——
This man is dressed so nicely and is waiting for me.
Twilight is sinking, except for Zhou Qing, everything in the world is fading.
Xu Muran got out of the car and jumped in front of Zhou Qing: "How long have you been waiting?"
"Not long," Zhou Qing raised his eyes to look at her, and said softly, "Are you tired?"
She shook her head: "It's almost time to rest, then we..."
"Xu Muran!" Cheng Xuewei ran behind her in three steps at a time, grabbed her hand, and said bitterly: "Second Master just told me in the car to hold a meeting before disbanding, you How do these ears hear?"
Immediately afterwards, she saw Zhou Qing behind Xu Muran, paused for a while, and then simply nodded at him.
...Yeah, she actually forgot about it.
Xu Muran said apologetically to Zhou Qing: "Then I'll go up to have a meeting first, and come down to find you after the meeting."
"Okay," Zhou Qing nodded, and handed her another package: "Let's change clothes."
Xu Muran didn't realize it: "What clothes?"
Zhou Qing: "I forgot to return your clothes last time."
It was obviously a recent event, but it seemed to have passed for a long time.Xu Muran squeezed the handle of the packaging bag tightly, smiled at Zhou Qing, and followed Cheng Xuewei upstairs.
Cheng Xuewei quietly asked her curiously: "What does that person have to do with you?"
She replied casually: "A friend."
Cheng Xuewei touched her arm self-consciously: "Is it really your friend?"
"...Yeah, what's wrong?"
"Didn't I go to look for you just now, and I was taken aback by her eyes, and it was so cold, as if I had taken someone's love away," Cheng Xuewei said sullenly, "Oh, I still get goosebumps thinking about it now."
Xu Muran couldn't help laughing: "You read it wrong, you...she's quite a nice person."
The other party shrugged: "Anyway, it really surprised me just now."
A thought suddenly jumped into Xu Muran's mind: She wanted Zhou Qing to smile more.
Obviously have such a good face, but keep a cold face all day long, it really seems a bit violent.
She is obviously such a good person, but she exudes a high-cold aura all day long and keeps people away from thousands of miles away. She deserves more love from more people.
In the conference room, Bai Meng waved his arms and said helplessly: "I know you are tired, ah, I am tired too, I also ran 2000 meters, what can I do, I am also very desperate!"
The laughter exploded coaxingly, and Bai Meng continued: "Since you are tired, then don't talk small words and do small actions, just finish listening quickly."
"Today, there are two main things to inform everyone. The first one is that we will be doing a special issue. The topics have been selected. We will interview young talents in various high-end academic fields. After the manuscript is approved, we will pay twice the bonus."
"What about the second one," he said, "the superiors have allocated three places for us to go abroad for exchange at public expense, but the detailed rules have not yet been released, and the date is about half a year later. I hope everyone will actively sign up and strive for approval!"
Someone asked: "Second Master, can you take your family with you?"
Bai Meng: "What family?"
"Wife, my wife and children are hot on the kang!"
Bai Meng slapped his eyes hard: "Wait until you find a girlfriend first!"
Everyone laughed again.Bai Meng saw that everyone was already "in Cao Ying and his heart is in Han", so he simply broke up the meeting.
Xu Muran hugged the clothes Zhou Qing gave her and went to the bathroom, intending to touch up her makeup before going downstairs after changing her clothes.As soon as she entered the compartment with her front foot and locked the door, someone followed her back and made a phone call at the sink: "How are you doing? Mom asked you to come over for dinner tonight."
"Me? I'm fine at night, I'll go too."
Xu Muran was busy changing clothes, so she didn't pay attention, but the next sentence made half of her body go numb: "The new one from the magazine? Do you remember this thing?"
The magazine has only two newcomers this year, one is Cheng Xuewei, and the other is her.
Xu Muran only felt cold hands and feet, wondering if he would be "lucky" to be that half.
The other party smiled absent-mindedly, and his voice was a little erratic: "Can you be more generous? Hold on to this trivial matter, and you too, don't talk about it every day... It's okay, I can figure it out, and you can leave it alone." gone."
Xu Muran didn't dare to catch his breath the whole time, until he clearly heard the other party leave, then he raised his hand and stroked his chest, which was beating extremely fast.
Who could it be that has such a big resentment towards either of them?
Until getting into Zhou Qing's car, this question still lingered in her heart for a long time.Zhou Qing noticed that her expression was wrong, reached out and turned down the air conditioner, and asked her, "What are you thinking?"
"I didn't think about anything." Xu Muran shook his head hastily. She could just leave this question to her alone, and she didn't want to bother Zhou Qing; what's more, there is not enough evidence now, and any assumptions and speculations are like crumbling castles in the air, and they are all false.
She thought that she had to wait patiently until the other party showed her feet.
Seeing that she didn't want to answer, Zhou Qing changed the subject without showing any trace: "This dress... I seem to have accidentally picked up the wrong one. Is it still suitable?"
The package that Zhou Qing brought her was indeed not the black suit she wore that day, but a gray-blue fishtail skirt.Xu Muran opened his mouth, not knowing what to say: "Mmm..."
This dress is very beautiful, setting off her delicate collarbone and round shoulders. The background color is gray-blue, atmospheric and calm. Looking from a distance, it makes people feel that "it can only be seen from a distance but not played with."
However, Zhou Qing was so caring, so caring that he brought her a brand new unopened nu-bra.Xu Muran only remembered that he looked at the "70b" on the outer packaging and swallowed very hard.
Although it seems too late to say it now, her size is indeed larger than the number on the outer packaging.
right!It is greater than!
Xu Muran cleared his throat: "I like this dress very much, thank you, Teacher Zhou."
Zhou Qing nodded, didn't look at her, and said in an admiring tone: "If you want to wear this skirt, you will be very happy."
Is this complimenting her?
It seems... I'm really praising her!
Xu Muran felt his face turn red in an instant, and was at a loss for a moment, not knowing what to say: "Ah..."
Zhou Qing smiled lightly, turned on the switch of the car CD, and said, "Didn't I tell you to listen to the English version of this song last time? Come on, listen to it."
"skies are gray..."
Xu Muran kept to the beat, and swayed his body gently from side to side.
"w dear, how much 'away..."
After listening to the song, Xu Muran straightened up and murmured: "The protagonist in this song must love her lover very much."
She also wants to meet someone who loves her so much, but... she is a little melancholy: at this moment, her lover might still be a fertilized egg.
Zhou Qing turned on the left turn signal and pretended to ask Xu Muran casually: "What kind of person do you like?"
I must be crazy, Zhou Qing thought.
She thought she had never been such an impatient person, but she degenerated into a reckless and impatient primitive person in front of her; she tried her mind so clumsily, regardless of the flaws that she might not be able to hide, she just Want to ask for an answer.
"The person I like—" Xu Muran thought for a while, then smiled and lay back on his seat: "Mr. Zhou, what kind of person do you like?"
"Me?" she said, "I don't know either, it depends on fate."
Xu Muran smiled even more happily: "I, like you, also depend on fate."
"It's just that this fate is best for Yushu Linfeng, eight-pack abs, wealthy, gentle, polite, positive, and—"
"The most important thing is that all the rivers, lakes and seas in the world just drink from me."
She finished speaking in one breath, and looked at Zhou Qing aggrievedly: "I deeply suspect that my fate has not yet been born."
Zhou Qing said slowly: "This... such a fate seems really hard to find."
"I'm not in a hurry." Xu Muran unconsciously rubbed his wrist, and said softly, "I'll wait."
Wait until my unrivaled hero rides colorful auspicious clouds to marry me.
The car stopped slowly at the entrance of the hotel, and Xu Muran's legs went limp as soon as he got off the car.
The price of dinner in this restaurant is even higher than that of the Japanese food restaurant she, Zhao Yi and Xu Zhiyang ate last time. If you order a steak here, you can eat enough to eat in a Japanese food restaurant.
Xu Muran turned his head and glanced at Zhou Qing who was handing over the car keys to the parking boy, and silently swallowed the thought of "I've made a fortune, it's not suitable to eat here today, let's find another one", and tidied up awkwardly. He patted his hair and obediently waited for Zhou Qing to come over.
In Zhou Qing's eyes, this scene took on a different look.
Her beloved girl stood under the bright lights of the courtyard, looking down at the dust flakes that might be on the tail of her hair. The arc formed by the meeting of the mandible and the slender neck is more beautiful than the water droplets formed in zero gravity.
At that moment, she remembered the song that the old professor hummed casually in class, "God, she is so beautiful that tears filled my eyes."
She walked towards Xu Muran slowly, reached out and grabbed the other's shoulder: "Go in, is it cold?"
Xu Muran smiled: "It's not cold."
She felt the length of Zhou Qing's palm brushing against her shoulder, and when the other party withdrew her hand, she was still a little nostalgic.
She suddenly felt a little cold: she really couldn't wear more off-shoulder skirts.
The two strolled into the lobby, and a waiter approached softly to ask if there was a reservation.Zhou Qing reported a series of numbers, and the other party nodded: "You two, please follow me."
Even if he was following Zhou Qing, Xu Muran was still a little flustered.
This is the first time she has come to such an advanced occasion, and even needs to pay attention to de. She is like a child who is caught off guard and suddenly enters the adult world. She is so nervous that she seems to have misplaced her hands and feet, and she doesn't know how to place them.
She secretly raised her eyes to look at Zhou Qing, the other's every move was very natural, as if she was very talented for this kind of occasion, her red dress was indescribably harmonious with the surrounding decorations.
She watched Zhou Qing softly respond to the waiter's just right strike up a conversation, Zhou Qing showed the other party a decent social smile, deeply felt her own insignificance.
It's like she is the guest and Zhou Qing is the host.
The waiter brought the two of them to a dark golden arch and left.Xu Muran was hesitating, Zhou Qing took a step ahead of her, and thoughtfully opened the door for her, and gently brought her waist towards where he was with the other hand without making a trace.
Only then did Xu Muran see the scene inside the door.
To her surprise, it was actually a small concert hall.It was almost full, but very quiet, almost no one was talking.
Zhou Qing led her to a corner to sit down, seemingly casually said: "Remember when I said a few days ago that I had a concert ticket to take you to see?"
"One of their squads is playing here today, and it won't be too long or leave you starving."
Xu Muran nodded lightly, and an indescribable emotion welled up in his heart: "Okay."
In fact, she likes music very much, but last time when Zhou Qing asked her out...
No, she bit her lip irritably, don't, don't think about it.
They... are good friends, that's all.
The lights in the venue dimmed, and thunderous applause rang out from the audience. After the conductor took the stage, he bowed deeply to the audience, then turned to the orchestra, and raised the baton in his hand.
At first, a burst of brisk and melodious string music sounded, and then gradually turned into low-pitched wind music, easily bringing people into the emotional environment of the music.
Xu Muran listened very seriously, until Zhou Qing fell asleep on her shoulder, and then pulled her back from illusion to reality.
She looked down at Zhou Qing, looked at her eyelashes, the bridge of her nose, and her lips, and had to admit that the love given to people by God is different.
Some people can be amazingly talented and famous in history when they are born, while some people can only end up being sprinkled into grains of wind and sand after exhausting all their twists and turns.
And Zhou Qing obviously belongs to the former.
Xu Muran thought, she has a relatively high achievement for her age, she is already very good, she shouldn't be so tired.
Seeing Zhou Qing fell asleep, she boldly touched the top of Zhou Qing's head.It was just as she had imagined, the hair was soft and itchy to the palm of her hand.
Xu Muran sniffed his fingertips subconsciously, and it smelled of the same shampoo fragrance as last time, which was a fresh plant smell.This not-so-familiar scent gradually brought her back to the back seat of the car under the night, and Zhou Qing's hand under her palm.
At first glance, it was the hands of a pair of scholars. The fingers were thin and white, and the nails were round and clean. Because of the wrong posture when writing, there were slight calluses on the middle finger and index finger.
Xu Muran thought, the two of them are the same, because of their families, their journey from childhood to adulthood has been smooth and smooth, and they are both young people who have not experienced any hardships in life and are devoted to reading sage books.
It's just that the person who is leaning on my shoulder now has a thicker reading, and probably the sages will also favor her a bit.
At this moment, when the music was playing to the climax, Xu Muran reached out and straightened Zhou Qing's head, hoping that she could sleep more comfortably.
It was too late and then quickly, when her arm crossed Zhou Qing's chin, Zhou Qing didn't know whether it was because she was too deep in sleep or what, her head drooped straight down, and her lips just touched the mouth. Xu Muran's arm left a dark red lip mark on it.
In an instant, it seemed that the synapses of the whole body were concentrated on the arms, Xu Muran's whole body went numb, and his mind was filled with the soft texture of that moment.
This is probably the first "kiss" she has received from outside her family since kindergarten.
Obviously it wasn't the direct contact of lips to lips, but she still blushed—this, this... oh, I can't speak, I'm going to call the police...
With a red face, she straightened Zhou Qing's head, and turned to deal with the strange idea behind the soft texture that she didn't even know where it came from.
I just posted it accidentally, everyone will be careless sometimes.
Could it be that you used too much force just now and distorted her position?
If she wakes up...
As soon as this idea came out, Xu Muran was so frightened that he immediately looked down at Zhou Qing.
Fortunately, she didn't wake up.
After confirming, she didn't dare to do it again, she only listened to the music passing into her ears absently, and began to think about a crucial question——
When to eat, she is so hungry.
When Zhou Qing woke up, it happened to be the end of the whole concert, and the audience had just started the encore, and there was darkness both on and off the stage.
She blinked her eyes in annoyance, and she actually fell asleep... Then she realized where she was now, she just fell asleep on Xu Muran's shoulder.
As soon as this idea appeared, Zhou Qing smiled amusedly: I intended to be her shoulder, but I didn't expect that the position was reversed in the end.
When she moved, Xu Muran felt it.She gave way to Zhou Qing and asked her softly, "Are you awake?"
Her warm air lingered on her neck, making Zhou Qing's throat feel a little dry, so she moved away calmly: "...um."
In the next second, she heard Xu Muran asking earnestly: "Is it time to eat in a while?"
Zhou Qing couldn't help laughing, and raised her hand to touch the top of her hair: "Well, it will be fine in a while."
The lights on the stage were turned on, and the whole concert was completely over.
The two came to the revolving restaurant on the top floor and sat down following the guidance of the waiter.The lights in the restaurant are a bit dim, giving it a misty night feel.The guests at the next table were talking softly, and everything seemed very pleasant.
The waiter ran over with the drink list in small steps: "What would you like to drink?"
Zhou Qing handed the list to Xu Muran: "Take a look."
As soon as Xu Muran read the first page, he was blinded by those long prices.She pretended to be calm and handed the drink list to Zhou Qing: "I'll drink whatever you drink."
The corner of Zhou Qing's lips curved: "Are you sure?"
"Ah."
Zhou Qing happily closed the wine list: "Two glasses of water."
……what?
Zhou Qing: "I want to drive, I can't drink." After a second, he added: "You said it yourself, it's the same as what I drink."
Xu Muran smiled: "Alright then."
After a while, two glasses of water were brought up, Zhou Qing picked up one of them, and smiled at Xu Muran: "Congratulations on the complete success of your sports meeting today."
Xu Muran imitated her and gave her a light touch: "Thank you, Mr. Zhou."
Zhou Qing glanced at her and said carefully: "The result is not important, the most important thing is to enjoy the process."
Xu Muran shook his hands and almost showed embarrassment: Could it be... Zhou Qing heard...
It wasn't just Zhou Qing, probably everyone in A heard the loud and clear "Congratulations to Xu Muran for winning No.1000 in the women's 2m event..."
She suppressed the surging desire/desire in her heart to smash/destroy the loudspeaker a thousand times, pretending to be calm and said calmly: "Well, I know."
If she could do it all over again, she would never take part in running events no matter if she was rolling around to be cute or to /dead/appear/forced. It would be nice for An An to have a fun rope skipping or something.
Wait, what if the broadcast says "Congratulations to Xu Muran for winning No.1 in the women's fun rope skipping..."
It seems... such a scene is also a bit shameful.
She looked down at the row upon row of lights and buildings on the ground, and casually brought up a topic: "This is the first time I have eaten at this restaurant."
"Well," Zhou Qing nodded seriously, "I think you should like this store."
Xu Muran: "What kind of food is better?"
Just in time, the waiter brought over the menu, so Zhou Qing pointed at the menu and showed her one by one: "This steak is good...Squab pigeon is also good...Great fish? No, no, that one is very fishy..."
Xu Muran was able to focus on the dishes at the beginning, but then he became a wild horse that had run wild, and he couldn't pull it back.Her gaze couldn't help moving with Zhou Qing's index finger, like a cat chasing the light spot of a laser pointer, jumping up and down all the time, if she couldn't catch it, it would be like claws scratching her heart.
"Then I'll get you a steak, how about it?" Zhou Qing finished her sentence, but saw Xu Muran was distracted in a daze, she waved her hand in front of her: "How is it?"
"Ah," Xu Muran came back to his senses, "Okay, that's it."
Zhou Qing nodded without saying a word, reached out to call the waiter, and explained the details of the dishes to him in a low voice.
Xu Muran waited for Zhou Qing to finish ordering, and suddenly said strangely: "Mr. Zhou, why don't you like to laugh?"
"Don't like to laugh?" Zhou Qing frowned and thought for a while, "I really don't like to laugh."
Seeing that she thought so, Xu Muran continued his efforts: "I think it's better for you to smile more. Look, you look so good-looking, and you look even better when you smile. Why are you so cold when you face others?"
As long as she is a woman, she is willing to listen to others praise her good looks.
There was a tinge of red on Zhou Qing's thin skin, but his voice was so steady that it didn't show at all: "When did I show cold face to others?"
Xu Muran said: "Just this afternoon, my colleague came to me and said that I was taken aback by your eyes. Although I knew you didn't do it on purpose, I thought at the time, if you talk about you, there is something wrong with laughing." How pretty..."
While listening to Xu Muran's rambling, Zhou Qing thought wickedly: that look, she did it on purpose.
Seeing that person rushing over and grabbing Xu Muran's hand, she felt a little angry, but she couldn't show it, and then she thought——
He glanced at her lightly to see what was happening on the other side.
Now it seems that the effect is good.
The emotions in her heart should not be exposed, she was managing her own thoughts, while dealing with Xu Muran with "um/um/ah/ah", until the steaming dishes were served, she adjusted her skirt , smiled at Xu Muran: "Eat."
The steak is fried until it is half-ripe, and there are faint red bloodshots inside, which gives people a visual impact; when you carefully cut a small piece of it, you will have another wonderful feeling when you bite it into your mouth: it is tender, juicy, and full of fragrance.
Xu Muran is not very good at cutting steaks, and the cuts are crooked and fragmented. She watched Zhou Qing, who was opposite her, swiftly cut the steaks into small, regular-sized pieces, and slowly felt a sense of unease in her heart.
It seems that she is now placed in the center of a field, with many spotlights surrounding her, and everyone is watching her, and she doesn't even know the script by heart, so she just stands there in great fear, burying her head a little lower, and then lower.
In the next second, Zhou Qing handed her the steak he had already cut in front of him, and took away the horribly cut meat in front of her very flatly: "Cut it for you, let's eat."
"Ah... Thank you Teacher Zhou." This made Xu Muran even more embarrassed, and she asked Zhou Qing: "What about you?"
Zhou Qing smiled and shook his head: "I'm fine, you don't need to worry about me, just eat."
Seeing what she said, Xu Muran didn't ask any more questions, and silently lowered his head and started eating.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Zhou Qing stood up and said to Xu Muran, "I'm going to the bathroom."
Xu Muran nodded: "Well, good."
She watched Zhou Qing's figure disappear at the end of the corridor, and then she felt a little more relaxed.She wiped her mouth, then looked furtively around again, making sure no one was looking at her, and then quietly stretched out her hand to adjust her nu-bra.
This feeling of wanting to cry without tears...is too uncomfortable...
What she didn't expect was that just as her hand touched her back, before she had time to touch the joint, the light "swiped" and disappeared.
There was a brief exclamation in the restaurant, and then there was no sound.
The world has returned to darkness and silence, so quiet that even the heartbeat is like a loud bang that shakes the sky and the earth.
After a few seconds, a bean-sized light lit up in the distance, and then slowly moved towards Xu Muran.
Looking at the lamp, she felt her heart was about to jump out.
Behind the faint and indistinct light, a woman in a red dress can be seen faintly.
Seeing the light getting closer and closer to him, Xu Muran saw the other person's face clearly, and instantly relieved all the burdens on his body: that's not Zhou Qing.
As for why both of them were wearing red dresses, it was probably just a coincidence.
The woman stops at a table next to them, and the candles reflect the shocked face of the man sitting at the table.She put the candle on the table, knelt down on one knee, held a ring in her hand, and asked the man with a trembling voice: "Would you...will you...marry me?"
The diners on the side had already entered cheering mode from short-term shock: "Marry her, marry her, marry her..."
The focus of the audience is on the attitude of the man.The man pursed his lips, and the muscles on his cheeks twitched faintly, as if he didn't know what to say.
After a while, he ignored the woman's earnest eyes, and the people around him applauded vigorously, got up without saying a word, and strode away.
At this time, the lights came on, and everyone bowed their heads knowingly.
Xu Muran shook his head with a heavy heart, and heard Zhou Qing sigh softly: "You."
There's nothing wrong with you, he's just...just...
He just doesn't like you that much.
Everyone has their own destiny, some people have it at their fingertips, some people can't ask for it.
She turned to Zhou Qing: "Are you back?"
"Yeah." Zhou Qing nodded briefly, and handed her a box: "A gift for you."
"Ah, thank you..." Xu Muran was surprised, and then remembered what Zhou Qing said on the phone in the afternoon: I bought you a gift because I thought it was very suitable for you.
What kind of gift would make Zhou Qing feel very suitable for her?
In other words, what kind of image does she have in Zhou Qing's eyes?
Full of curiosity, she gently opened the box, and when she saw the contents, she took a small breath.
It was an emerald hairpin that was light green all over, with occasional emerald green blooms in it.
Xu Muran took the thing into the palm of his hand to play with, and felt that this hairpin was even better: the texture in his hand was cold at first, and then warm and moist, as if this thing had spirituality and could breathe.
She looked at it for a long time, put the hairpin back into the box, and pushed it to Zhou Qing: "This thing is too expensive, I can't accept it." Although she didn't know jade, she knew that it was expensive at a glance.
As if she was expected to answer like this, Zhou Qing bent the corners of her lips and said with a smile: "Put it away, I have some fate with this thing."
Yesterday in Yunli Street, she was called to the stall by the old lady, and she immediately fell in love with this hairpin. She thought, if Xu Muran wore this hairpin, it must look good.
So she asked, "Mother-in-law, how much is this hairpin?"
Unexpectedly, the mother-in-law shook her head with a smile and said, "That's not for sale."
Zhou Qing was a little discouraged, and tried to fight with others: "But I really like it..."
"Girl, I think you look a bit like my old neighbor. Is there anyone with the surname Zhou among your grandparents?"
This question made her startled: "I, my surname is Zhou."
After chatting with each other, they found out that this mother-in-law used to be an old classmate of Grandpa Zhou Qing. The two lived on the same street, but they had to separate because of the turmoil.
The jigsaw puzzle of memory was put together piece by piece. When talking about the joy, the mother-in-law stood up tremblingly, and put the hairpin into Zhou Qing's hand: "This is the dowry hairpin brought by my mother-in-law. No one has been with me for a long time. The old woman chatted, today, this hairpin, I...I will give it to you..."
Zhou Qing naturally couldn't agree, so he gave up 2000 yuan to the old man and walked slowly home with her, so he gave up.
When they came to the house, the mother-in-law looked at Zhou Qing with a smile, and said in a strong local accent: "This hairpin is for marriage..."
She gave this hairpin to Xu Muran because she had some inexplicable selfishness—if her doctoral supervisor knew about it, she would be so angry that she would blow her beard and stare—a good physics student actually went to engage in idealism. How embarrassing for him!
There is a saying in "Leave a Wife": Get married as a husband and wife, there is no doubt about love and affection.
I give it to you just to make hair with you.
After hearing Zhou Qing's cause and effect, Xu Muran also felt very miraculous. She took the hairpin from Zhou Qing's hand, tied it in a bun, and asked, "Does it look good?"
Zhou Qing nodded and said with a smile, "It's pretty."
As long as it's you, everything looks good.
After drinking and eating, Zhou Qing called the waiter to pay the bill.Xu Muran was about to take out his wallet with heartache, only to see Zhou Qing simply sign, and the other party conveniently put away the bill and left.
Xu Muran opened his mouth, but did not continue to ask.
Zhou Qing probably doesn't want others to discuss this kind of thing too much.
When we walked to the hotel gate, the car had already parked at the gate.Zhou Qing took the car keys from the parking boy, raised his chin at Xu Muran, and said softly, "I'll take you home."
All the way to the downstairs of Xu Muran's house, Zhou Qing turned to look at her: "Go up, pay attention to safety."
"En." Xu Muran nodded solemnly, "Thank you today, Teacher Zhou." After she finished speaking, she smiled and added: "There are too many facts to thank you for."
Zhou Qing was about to say "It's okay", when she heard her seriously: "Mr. Zhou, let me give you a hug, okay?"
For this kind of thing, the answer is of course "yes", how can it be bad?
So Zhou Qing leaned over and hugged Xu Muran lightly.
It is easy to leave, but the aftertaste is long. Except for theoretical physics, she can't think of anything better than what she is experiencing now.
Xu Muran got out of the car, turned around, and smiled embarrassedly at Zhou Qing: "Good night."
