[Zhongyingmei] She is such a sand sculpture netizen

"Joanna."

Joanna turned around and saw Steve smiling apologetically at her.

"Hi!" Joanna raised her head and grinned.

Steve led Joanna to the shade: "Waiting for a long time?"

Joanna shook her head: "I met a beautiful woman on the subway today, and she kindly offered me a faster route. I have to say, I'm still not familiar with Washington's subway network."

Steve laughed. "That sounds more balanced to me. Looks like I'm not the only one who can't adjust to modern city life."

Joanna pouted dissatisfiedly: "I don't call it 'unable to adapt', I'm just not familiar with it."

Steve smiled and shook his head, not intending to get too entangled with Joanna on this issue.

"So, what are you going to do today?" Joanna tilted her head in the shade, staring intently at Steve's face through the sunglasses.The existence of the sunglasses made her feel extremely relaxed, because they were blocked by the lenses, and she could look at Steve's beautiful face frankly without thinking about the embarrassment of being discovered.

However, Joanna ignored Steve's good eyesight.Even through the sunglasses, Steve can still clearly see Joanna's big eyes.As far as Steve could remember, Joanna had seldom stared at his face so bluntly, at least not with such candid admiration as today.Except that day... at the elevator entrance.

Steve is a little uncomfortable, but he doesn't want Joanna to realize that he's caught Joanna's gaze.So, almost artificially, Steve looked away, looked at the building across the street, and asked in a relaxed tone: "Do you know where there is a home shopping mall near here?"

"Furniture store?"

"I don't really want S.H.I.E.L.D. to help me prepare things at home. The furniture I picked out myself makes me more..." Steve bit the tail of the sentence and didn't say it.He was a little concerned that saying "more at home" might come across as a bit abrupt and presumptuous.But he didn't think of a suitable expression for a while.

Joanna didn't notice Steve's hesitation at all, she picked up the words habitually, and continued: "More relaxed?"

Steve exhaled softly: "That's right."

"I think so too." Joanna shrugged, "You can't expect your colleagues to have the same level of aesthetics as you. Besides, no matter how good your colleagues' aesthetics are, furniture that isn't chosen by yourself will not make people feel uncomfortable at all. Feels like home."

Steve paused for a moment, and looked at Joanna, who was looking down at the electronic map, in surprise.Joanna lowered her head in the sun, raised her hand to lower the sunglasses, and looked from above the frame over the sunglasses to the phone screen.

At that moment, Steve thought Joanna was beautiful.It's the kind of real beauty, not artificial, not exaggerated, and even a beauty that she didn't realize at all.This is the first time Steve has focused on Joanna's appearance.It feels a bit novel, but not bad.

"Ah! There's one within a block. But it's not very big, do you want to check it out?" Joanna raised her phone and showed Steve the map.

"it is good."

After Joanna figured out the direction, she put away her phone.The two walked side by side towards their destination.

"I heard... Coulson..." Joanna said in a regretful tone, "I'm very sad."

"Me too."

【No!Steve!You don't have to be sad at all.

Your unscrupulous fanboy is lying to you!He is still alive and well, maybe drinking in some bar! 】

"So... do you still get used to the working environment of S.H.I.E.L.D.?" Joanna asked with a smile.It looked like an old employee warmly welcoming new employees.

"Not bad." Steve was calm about it. "It's nice to have something to do. At least it doesn't overwhelm me."

Hearing this, Joanna felt distressed for a while.

Steve said similar things the other day when they met at S.H.I.E.L.D.Joanna felt very uncomfortable at that time.

For Steve, what made him unable to adapt for a long time was not advanced technology and a new way of life.It's the loneliness that a veteran faces when the war is over and survives alone.Humans adapt quickly to their lifestyles, but humans adapt to loneliness very, very slowly.

At this moment, Joanna thanked S.H.I.E.L.D.

Despite all of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s problems, maybe the team isn't pure enough and full of risks.However, it gave Steve a sense of belonging and sustenance.In this regard, it is indeed a wise move for Steve to join S.H.I.E.L.D.

The two chatted about interesting things about the Special Operations Department as they walked. Joanna usually collected a lot of news about the Special Operations Department because she wanted to run the S.H.I.E.L.D. twitter account.Therefore, even though the departments of the two are different, they chatted very happily.

When they arrived at the furniture store, Joanna stood at the door and waved at the furniture like a big boss: "Look at what you need."

Steve said a little shyly, "Let's go check the bed first, I've had enough of that soft mattress."

Joanna looked surprised: "Did you put the mattress on the floor all this time?!"

"I've never had time, so..."

Joanna patted Steve on the shoulder: "Leave it to me. You must have a bed to sleep tonight."

As soon as the words came out, Joanna realized the ambiguity in the words.Before she blushed, she took a step and strode towards the area where the beds were sold.

Although it was Saturday, the business of the mall was a little deserted that day.As soon as Joanna and Steve arrived at the sales area, the shopping guide lady who was eager to open the store warmly greeted her: "Hello, what can I do for you?"

"We want to pick a bed first." Joanna consciously acted as a communicator.

"Okay. We have a few new models recently, and we are doing activities, which are very cost-effective." The shopping guide lady introduced the two while leading the two to a double bed, "This one is new. The Nordic minimalist style , recently doing activities, buy a bed and get a mattress."

Standing in front of the double bed, the two fell into embarrassment.

But the shopping guide was unaware of this: "You can try it, the matching mattress is also very soft." Then, the shopping guide stretched out her hand to pull Joanna.

Joanna took a step back subconsciously: "No need, no need."

Those who sell things are most afraid of hearing customers say "no".

When the shopping guide heard that Joanna had the intention of quitting, how could she be gentle and slow to induce her?In line with the principle of "speaking by product quality and retaining people by service attitude", the shopping guide lady grabbed Joanna, skillfully moved her to the bedside, and then raised her hand to press her shoulder.Joanna's center of gravity was unstable, and she sat down on the bed.

"Come, come! Lie down and try!" The shopping guide took advantage of Joanna's still dazed, and pushed Joanna down on the bed without any explanation.

When Steve was thinking about how to grab Joanna, the shopping guide turned around deftly, and pressed Steve onto the bed in the same way.After the completion of the project, the shopping guide began to praise her own products: "How is it? Our products are not bad. To be honest, when buying furniture, you have to try it. If you don't try it, you can't draw conclusions! Our bed, It’s sold well. Lots of couples bought this one.”

The more the shopping guide lady talked, the more outrageous she became.Although Joanna has a thick face, she knows that the simple and honest Steve has a thin skin!In order to avoid further embarrassment, Joanna gestured to get up from the bed.

The shopping guide quickly pinned Joanna down again: "Don't get up in a hurry, try rolling over on it. It's absolutely silent, and it won't affect the other half's sleep. Let me tell you, this bed must be chosen well. Yes. The sound insulation effect of the current building is not good. If you live in an apartment, you have a passionate moment in the bedroom at night, and the sound from the bed is transmitted to the next door, how embarrassing it is."

"Well, we don't..."

"Take a step back, even if the sound insulation effect is good. Doesn't the creaking of the bed affect the interest?" After saying this, the shopping guide raised his eyebrows ambiguously at the two who couldn't get up .

Joanna's heart skipped a beat, and she subconsciously looked at Steve.Unexpectedly, Steve also turned to look at her.As soon as their eyes collided, the two quickly turned their heads to avoid each other's sight.

The shopping guide lady was completely immersed in the joy of work, and did not notice the awkward atmosphere between the two of them at all.While the two of them were lying on the bed, feeling the quality of their own products, he chattered a lot of recommended words.

Joanna tried to explain several times but failed.He simply said what the shopping guide lady said, and praised a few words at will.Then, taking advantage of the shopping guide lady relaxing her vigilance, she sat up while praising her.

"Actually, what I want to buy is a single bed." Steve, who followed him up, smiled at the shopping guide lady.

The shopping guide was stunned for two seconds, and then showed a professional smile: "I told you earlier, we also have them here, please go this way."

Bypassing a decorative wall for isolation, Steve and Joanna soon came to what the shopping guide called the single bed area.The two fell silent in front of the bed strongly recommended by the shopping guide.

What made the two of them silent was not the shape of the bed or anything else.The reason why the two are silent is entirely because...

What a crib!

What shocking logic did the shopping guide use to deduce that Steve could sleep on this bed!

The shopping guide stood beside the children's bed, fully showing the appearance of the product: "If you don't tell me, I really didn't see that you all have children."

How blind do you have to be to see this?

"Our product can meet the needs of children and teenagers under the age of 16. Moreover, the mattresses equipped are harder, which is good for children's bone development and spine growth. In terms of price, we can give you a 8% discount, You can think about it. By the way, girl or boy?"

Having said that, Joanna has already figured out what is going on with the logic of this shopping guide lady.She admired the brain power of this shopping guide from the bottom of her heart.

Joanna raised her hand and patted the shopping guide's arm, and said in a gentle tone: "Sorry, maybe we didn't express clearly. What we are looking for is a single bed, a single bed."

The shopping guide frowned: "Are you sure?"

"determine."

"Okay, this way please."

Steve couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.He never knew how to deal with such a self-talking person.He was suddenly very grateful that Joanna accompanied him to the home shopping mall today.Although, the experience of being pushed down on the bed just now was really embarrassing.

Once you get to the single bed sales area, the next thing is much easier.Joanna is a good consultant. After fully understanding Steve's needs, she selected two products that are most suitable for Steve from several products recommended by the shopping guide.Steve avoids having to choose from a huge number of options, and simply chooses one or the other.

Steve wasn't one to struggle, and the two beds Joanna picked out weren't too different.After confirming that the matching mattresses were hard, Steve picked the relatively cheap one.

The shopping guide lady led them to the sales area upstairs.The upper level is full of kitchen and dining room items.A dazzling array of cups and saucers shone lovely under the light.Joanna's attention was immediately attracted.She unconsciously quickened her pace, left the shopping guide and Steve behind, and plunged into the world surrounded by all kinds of cups and dishes.

Steve was about to follow quickly, but his arm was gently pulled by the shopping guide next to him.

He stopped and looked at the guide in confusion.
