unruly

It was an accident, it happened by chance, and neither party did it intentionally.

Ning Zhi was invited by Aunt Lin, she was invited as a neighbor, and she just sat in the living room for a few minutes after she arrived.

——Aunt Lin asked Mingshu’s opinion on this matter before, more than once, but Mingshu was always immersed in the work at hand, and in addition to the pressure in the past few days, she couldn’t spare any extra energy, so she never listened Go in, follow every time.

Aunt Lin couldn't get away in the kitchen, so she asked Ning Zhi to call Mingshu out for dinner, and Ning Zhi came over, knocked on the door twice, and stood outside for a while.

There were people in the room, and there were voices coming out from time to time, but there was no response, so she pushed the half-closed door a little bit, and didn't intend to go in, but she didn't know what was wrong, and thought something happened, who would have bumped into it? on this scene.

Ming Shu was also overtired. She would only take a bath after waking up a little groggy. In order to relax, she listened to soothing music for a long time. Her whole body was empty, and she almost fell into the water, so she didn't know it.

If she had known that the other party was coming, she would definitely not have stayed in the bathroom for so long, and would have gone out earlier, so she wouldn't be so defenseless, casually wearing a thin robe and coming out casually.She went to the bedroom to find a change of clothes, and she came out halfway, and didn't make much effort to tidy up before leaving the bathroom. Not only was her hair half dry, but there was also water on her legs and neck.

The curtains were drawn in the room, the lights were on, and the light was soft.

The silk material shows off the figure, fits comfortably, and faintly outlines the concave and concave curves inside, especially the part where the belt is tied.Ming Shu has a slim waist and bare, slender legs. Even if the belt is not fastened, it is still very eye-catching, with perfect proportions.

After catching sight of the figure at the door, Ming Shu's heart skipped a beat for a moment, the hand holding the towel stopped, and he was also stunned.

She turned to face the man, slightly surprised.

Ning Zhi didn't look at it, and moved his eyes away almost at the same time, but his crooked hand was still on the doorknob, and his knuckles tightened little by little.

This kid is quite good at putting on airs, but now he is serious, pretending that he didn't see anything just now, suppressing all his emotions abruptly, pursing his lips like a normal person, and after a while, he whispered through his teeth: "Eat!" It's..."

It's an explanation and a cover up.

But that's all there is to it, nothing else.

The atmosphere was stagnant and completely weird.

Mingshu came to his senses later, turned his back sideways, and quickly closed the neckline with one hand.

The person outside the door is used to being suspicious, so without waiting for her to reply, he immediately said calmly, "Aunt Lin asked me to call you."

The tone is calm, almost unhurried.

Ming Shu also calmly pulled at the collar of his collar, remained silent for a while, restrained himself, worried that he would startle Aunt Lin in the kitchen, and was even more embarrassed to be discovered, so he only moved his lips, and after a long time of deliberation, he said in a deep voice: " go out……"

The other party was very conscious, pretending to be inadvertently humming, and immediately closed the door again.

click-

Separate inside and out.

Ming Shu thought about so many things, and immediately turned into the cloakroom.

In the kitchen, Aunt Lin didn't notice this, she didn't even hear the sound, she was all focused on the stove.

The dishes are all ready, and they can be served on the table after being plated.Looking back, seeing Ning Zhi came out, Aunt Lin smiled and asked her to sit down, and said kindly, "Sit here, next to me."

Ning Zhi went over to help, "I'll do it."

"No, there's nothing to do." Aunt Lin said, looked towards the door of the room again, and asked softly, "Is she up yet?"

She thought Ming Shu was still resting on the bed, and she lost her head after being busy in the kitchen all afternoon.

Ning Zhi went to Qianqiantang, his complexion did not change, and he didn't say a word about what happened just now.

"get up."

Aunt Lin said: "She has been working a lot lately, she always runs outside, and she only rests today."

Afraid that Ning Zhi would mind, and misunderstood that Ming Shu deliberately neglected the guests.

In front of the elders, Ning Zhi nodded without being too distant.

The dinner is sumptuous, with a large table of dishes, most of which are local specialties.

Ming Shu didn't leave the room until ten minutes later, just in time for dinner.She changed into loose home clothes, no nightgown or skirt, but ordinary clothes and pants.

It didn't take long before and after that she even dried her hair and wiped off the water on her body. She couldn't tell that she had taken a shower, it was more like she just woke up from sleep.

Aunt Lin didn't notice the clue, so she brought her rice and soup, and she also picked up a chopstick dish by the way, and said gently: "Sit down for a while, after sleeping for so long, drink some soup before eating, and calm down."

After casting a glance at someone, Ming Shu went to sit opposite him, pretending that nothing happened, and replied: "It's nothing, don't worry about me."

Sensing the gaze falling on her body, Ning Zhi raised her head, glanced at Ming Shu's hand propped on the table from the corner of her eye, but stopped looking up, intentionally not looking at people.

The two of them were not familiar with each other, so Aunt Lin smoothed things over in the middle, and introduced casually at the beginning, starting with herself, then Mingshu, and finally Ningzhi.Aunt Lin avoided what Mingshu refused to say, and only said that she only moved here last month, which is not much earlier than Ning Zhi.

Ming Shu seldom spoke to them, and listened to their chats.Regarding Ning Zhi's arrival, she didn't ask anything, so she could guess what was going on.

This time, the little ghost didn't enter the door empty-handed, he was more down-to-earth than the previous time.She came here with a lot of gifts, and she bought more than a dozen boxes of expensive bird's nest and fish gelatin, and piled them up on the coffee table.

The intention must be in place, but I don't know who the thing is for.

Aunt Lin didn't call Mingshu's name, but "Ashu".

After all, they have been living together for many years, and Aunt Lin is taking care of Mingshu's daily life every day. The relationship is there, and this posture really looks like a mother and daughter.Ming Shu was not worried that Ning Zhi would hear something was wrong, so he did whatever he wanted, and his behavior was all natural.

Maybe it's because "Ashu" and "Mingshu" didn't match up at all, Ning Zhi didn't do well from the beginning to the end, and even got up to help Aunt Lin with food.

Ming Shu watched secretly, knowing it in his heart.

The little ghost only takes care of the elders at the dinner table, he doesn't care about Mingshu, he is not even willing to help.

The table was too wide, and the spoon was facing the opposite side, so Ming Shu couldn't reach it, and the man saw it and didn't help to pass it.

Aunt Lin already knew that this was not a foreigner, and she was a little curious about her mixed-race identity, so she asked casually.

It wasn't intentional to explore the situation of Ning Zhi's family, so I just mentioned it casually.

Ning Zhi didn't hide it, and told the truth, and didn't treat it as something private that couldn't be said.But she didn't mention the AURORA Group, and concealed some things, such as why she left home to live here, and made up a lie: "There is still something to do at the school, so I have to stay after the holiday, and I can't go back."

Aunt Lin believed it, and she really thought it was for studying. She asked with concern: "That's no way. Studying is more important. How old are you now?"

"In the second half of the year, I will be a junior," Ning Zhi said, and replied in a serious manner, "I want to participate in the competition."

Aunt Lin likes this kind of students who can learn, and the more she listens, the happier she is. She continued: "It's almost two months. The junior year is really heavy, the courses are tight, and I have to prepare for the postgraduate entrance examination and work."

Ming Shu didn't intervene, and raised his head unobtrusively here.

She is well aware of the little ghost's situation, his grades are indeed good, he can maintain the top three in the whole year, and he is admitted to Z University because of his own strength.This person didn't take advantage of his mixed-race identity to take any shortcuts in his studies, and he didn't ask his family to help him. He passed the exam down-to-earth.

Aunt Lin asked, "Which school did you study in?"

Ning Zhi said, "Z is big."

Aunt Lin smiled and said, "What major?"

Ning Zhiying said: "Management."

Aunt Lin was surprised, "Hey, our Ah Shu is also a management major, and we go to the same school as you."

The kid raised his eyelids and looked here.

Ming Shu took a sip of the soup, and said along the way: "Much older than you."

We chatted and ate, and it was nine or ten o'clock when it was over.

Afterwards, it was Aunt Lin who cleaned up the mess and didn't let the two of them help, and even cut up a plate of fruit for eating.

Ning Zhi sat on the sofa and waited. He couldn't eat anymore, so he lowered his head and fiddled with his phone.

I didn't play games, and went to chat with friends in the group.

Ming Shu didn't go back to the room, but stayed in the living room to accompany her.

Pour a glass of warm water and go.

He didn't go from the front, but passed by from behind, and took a look at what this person was doing.

Passing behind her, seeing whether she was sitting or not, Ming Shu patted the back of her neck lightly, and said softly, "Don't keep your back on your back."

Ning Zhi didn't pay attention, he suddenly raised his hand to block it when he was slapped, but when he was about to touch it, he barely stopped and retracted his movement.

The temperature of the air conditioner in the living room was turned on low, and the air-conditioning was sufficient. Mingshu's fingertips were icy cold, and the touch on the back of his neck was hard to ignore. Even after they separated, there was still that instant feeling.

As if he didn't like being bumped by unfamiliar people, the kid turned sideways and backed away a little, his avoidance was too obvious.

Ming Shu walked half a circle around the sofa, put the cup in front of her, and then pushed it signally.

Knowing that he was going to sit down, Ning Zhi gave up some space.

The little ghost was full of thoughts and twisted around. He still remembered that when he came out, Ming Shu straightened his back as soon as he approached, feeling uncomfortable.She didn't appreciate it, and even the water was brought over, and she said, "No need."

"Just put it here if you don't drink." Ming Shu would not get too close to her, and tactfully left some distance, "What are you doing?"

Ning Zhi shook his phone, "Playing WeChat."

"chat with friends?"

"Ah."

Mingshu asked: "Which ones were there before?"

The wolf-tailed man and the pink-haired girl.

Ning Zhi still remembers the last time they met, and he doesn't deny it.

The screen of the phone is not locked, it stays on the chat interface, the news in the group is swiping fast, a group of children can make a fuss, and they have nothing to do at night, so they post everything to the group.

There are also individual chats, and several chats at the same time.

Ming Shu looked at it openly, and saw that there was a note on it that was a boy's name, and asked again: "Subject?"

Ning Zhi is not afraid of being looked at, and doesn't care.

"No."

Ming Shu said, "The one at the bar last time?"

The other party avoided answering, just said: "No object."

"That's it..." Ming Shu said, "Seeing you staring at your phone so preoccupied, I thought it was."

Ning Zhi took away the phone and refused to show it, "It's just friends, there's no such relationship."

Ming Shu was amused, and deliberately teased her, "He's quite handsome."

The kid didn't bother to explain, and became indifferent again.

Sitting together is naturally to shorten the distance and ease the relationship.

When we get to know each other thoroughly in the future, we have to continue to get along with each other. Now we can get acquainted with each other.

Ming Shu took the initiative and said something, and when the other party was willing to pay attention to him, he glanced at the part of her face where the bruise had not completely dissipated, and asked, "How did you hurt?"

Ning Zhi didn't tell the truth, and said perfunctorily, "It hit me."

"Does it hurt?"

"Fortunately."

Ming Shu said bluntly, "Have you had a conflict with someone?"

"No," she argued, "neither."

Knowing that this person was stubborn, he would definitely not tell the truth, so Ming Shu stopped asking.

Besides, Aunt Lin is still here, so it's hard to tell if she'll be here in a while.

Ming Shu got up and asked him to sit still, "Don't go, wait a while."

After all, go to the room.

Not understanding what it was for, Ning Zhi frowned.

Turning back again, Ming Shu had an extra ointment in his hand, walked up to him, and put the thing on the man's hand.

"Take it back and use it later."
