he is afraid, he pretends

"boom!"

An abrupt sound suddenly sounded in the quiet office.

Xu Qiqi instantly stopped what she was doing and looked towards the source of the sound.

It was a few books that fell to the ground.

Judging from the location, Wen Siyuan should have dropped it by accident.

Wen Siyuan didn't know what he was thinking, seeing the book dropped on the ground, he didn't seem to have the intention to pick it up for a while.

Seeing this, Xu Qiqi got up to pick it up for him, put it back on his desk, then knocked on his desk, and asked aloud: "You are very wrong today, why are you absent-minded?"

Wen Siyuan raised his head slowly, remained silent for a while, and slowly uttered two words: "I like it."

The moment Xu Qiqi heard Wen Siyuan's words clearly, she took two big steps back and hugged herself: "Brother, this is not appropriate, I have a wife and children!"

Wen Siyuan didn't give much reaction at first, but after a while, he reacted belatedly, looked at Xu Qiqi indifferently, with "Do you think it's possible" written all over his face.

Xu Qiqi chuckled, then sat back at her desk, and asked Wen Siyuan, "What's your situation?"

Wen Siyuan stacked the few books that Xu Qiqi had picked up and put them back in their original place, thinking about them: "How do you know if you like it?"

Xu Qiqi instantly understood: "Have you not been interested in anyone for so many years?"

Wen Siyuan opened his mouth, wanting to explain something, but in the end he didn't say anything, just replied: "No."

"How is it possible?" Xu Qiqi looked disbelieving, "Even if you grew up with a rigid personality, adolescence, or even when you were younger, you should have the feeling of wanting to be close to someone when you were young, right?"

"No." Wen Siyuan promised again, "Each age has its own things to do. It is not suitable for a romantic relationship before adulthood. Love after adulthood must be based on responsibility. It's not an easy thing to do."

After briefly explaining his point of view, he looked at Xu Qiqi again: "So how do you judge?"

"It's not easy." Xu Qiqi pulled her chair and sat down, and said as an experienced person, "I like to put it bluntly, that person is different from your friends, even more different from your relatives, and completely different from other people. exist."

Wen Siyuan thought for a moment: "Is there a more concrete way of judging, such as... performance."

"Well," Xu Qiqi raised her hand to support her face, "People must pay more attention to their image in front of the person they like, and once they get too close to the person they like, they tend to blush, their limbs become stiff, and they feel unnatural."

As he said, he seemed to be remembering the past, and suddenly he smiled like an idiot with his face in his hands: "I was chasing my wife back then, and every time I was alone in a space with my wife, I felt that my whole body would melt every minute. When I spoke, I felt that she was telling me to kill myself immediately, and I could go there without thinking for a second."

Wen Siyuan lowered his eyes and pondered, then nodded slowly.

·

The day of the first round of screening in the school is scheduled for Wednesday.

In class on Monday, Lao Xu gave the whole class a mock exam first. The top [-] in the mock exam were rewarded with two stacks of test papers.

Wu Luming's speed of doing the questions has always been very fast, but he couldn't bear the many test papers given by Lao Xu.

He did it for two days in a row, and the test paper was only halfway down.

On Tuesday night, Wen Siyuan was rarely busy, and had dinner at home with Wu Luming.

After dinner was over at six o'clock, Wu Luming took a shower, then sat down in front of the coffee table in the living room with the test paper and started doing it.

At around seven o'clock, Wen Siyuan, who had also finished washing, came out of the bedroom with his computer in his arms, and was about to go to the study, but when he walked to the door of the study, he saw Wu Luming who was lying on the coffee table in the living room doing a problem.

Although it hasn't rained in the past two days, it may be that it rained too much a while ago, and they hurried Qiuhuo to City A ahead of time.

It was already approaching October, and when it got dark, it was hard to feel the slightest taste of summer in the air, and the breath was full of coolness that penetrated into the skin.

The hair of the young man in front of the coffee table was half-dried, and he was wearing the same short-sleeved shorts as usual.

He stretched one leg under the coffee table, and half-supported the other leg, hugging it with his free left hand, resting his chin on his knee, and shaking his head slightly every time he wrote a few strokes on the test paper.

The height of the coffee table is actually not suitable for writing things for a long time.

Wen Siyuan tried it before, and his back became sore after sitting for half an hour.

He stood still and stared at Wu Luming for a while, and finally walked towards the living room and said, "Do you want to come to the study?"

When Wen Siyuan spoke, Wu Luming was thinking about a rather confusing topic.

He raised his head very slowly, until he wrote a number on the test paper, then he put down his pen and looked at Wen Siyuan.

"Brother Yuan, what did you just say?"

Wen Siyuan stood aside with his computer in his arms, instead of repeating what he said just now, he asked instead: "How long do you have to write the test paper?"

Wu Luming glanced at the test paper under his hand: "Guaranteed for one hour."

"Writing on the coffee table, after a long time, my back will hurt when I wake up tomorrow. There are spare chairs in the study room, and the desk is big enough. When I'm not around in the future, you can go in anytime if you need it."

Wu Luming understood Wen Siyuan's meaning in an instant, nodded and picked up the test paper on the coffee table, smiled and said, "Thank you, brother Yuan."

Wen Siyuan didn't say much.

Seeing Wu Luming standing up, he was about to turn around and intend to lead others to the study, when he suddenly scanned the complicated formulas on Wu Luming's test paper, and he stopped.

Seeing this, Wu Luming stopped, wondering, "What's wrong?"

"Is your teacup here?" Wen Siyuan asked.

Wu Luming nodded, walked back to the tea table, and took out the thermos cup behind the water heater.

Wen Siyuan glanced over and followed to the coffee table.

He temporarily put the computer on the coffee table, then opened the drawer, rummaged for a while, and took out a wooden box, very similar to the one he gave Wu Luming before.

He opened the wooden box, and inside the wooden box were transparent balls of the same style.

He took out a small transparent ball, closed the wooden box again, handed the ball in front of Wu Luming, and said two words in a serious manner: "Tonic the brain."

In a trance, Wu Luming thought that he had stumbled into a fortune-telling stall on the street, and the stall owner was carrying a yellow talisman, telling him to drink it to prolong his life.

He couldn't help laughing out loud.

Seeing Wen Siyuan slowly showing doubts, he quickly suppressed his smile and took the things Wen Siyuan handed over, thanked him repeatedly, then directly opened the transparent ball with great confidence, and poured the medicinal materials inside into the thermos cup .

Seeing this, Wen Siyuan looked away, then took out the goji berries in the drawer, and put a handful into his own cup.

Wen Siyuan is right, the desk in his study is indeed quite big.

Moreover, it is probably the height specially customized for office work with the chair, and you will not feel any discomfort when sitting at the desk.

One person occupies half of the huge desk, and there are thermos cups that are steaming at the corners of each desk.

Wu Luming wrote the questions, Wen Siyuan typed on the computer, no one would disturb anyone.

After finally finishing all the test papers, Wu Luming put down his pen and stretched, let out a long sigh of relief, took the phone by the table and checked the time.

9 points.

Wen Siyuan was still typing intently.

Wu Luming put away the test paper and glanced at Wen Siyuan.

The text on the screen seems to be writing the content of the lecture.

He tidied up the test papers without interrupting Wen Siyuan, took a couple of sips from the thermos, and looked around Wen Siyuan's study in a bored manner.

Probably because the guest room was converted into a study. Wen Siyuan's study is very large. Except for the desk, both walls are built with built-in bookshelves, and the bookshelves are full of books.

In the corner of the study room, there was a sweeping robot squatting there quietly. In another corner facing the sweeping robot, there was a pot of green plants growing well.

Wu Luming was scrutinizing every place carefully, when Wen Siyuan's voice suddenly came from next to his ear: "Is it finished?"

Wu Luming looked back at Wen Siyuan, and agreed.

Wen Siyuan's eyes were still on the computer, and his subordinates didn't stop, but it was obvious that part of his mind was separated to talk to Wu Luming.

"The books on the shelf on the left are of a story nature, and the books on the right are pure theory books, and some are related to mathematics. You can pick and choose the ones you are interested in. Of course, you can do any other things or leave the study, as long as Don't make too much noise, it won't affect me."

Wu Luming lightly agreed.

He waited for a while, and seeing that Wen Siyuan didn't continue speaking, he got up and walked towards the bookshelf beside him.

He sat on the left side of the desk, so he got up and looked at the books on the left shelf first.

Wen Siyuan categorized the books very neatly, and labeled books of different categories.

There are two bookshelves full, ranging from a few hundred to as many as a thousand books, almost all of which have been read. Judging by the degree of newness, many books should have been read more than once.

Wu Luming glanced over many books one by one, and suddenly stopped on one of them.

That book was classified in the area of ​​suspense stories. Compared with the scattered labels of other books, the book was densely packed with a small label almost every two pages.

He pulled out the book curiously, and found that it was a puzzle-solving book.

The cover introduction of the book says that the whole book consists of ten short stories, each of which is interlocking, and all the details may point to the final ending of the final chapter.

Wu Luming became a little interested, so he returned to the desk with the book.

He didn't start to read the contents of the book right away, but turned to a page that Wen Siyuan had labeled, and found that Wen Siyuan had written densely written annotations on that page.

He turned over a few more pages, and found that the place where the label was pasted was densely marked.

Just when he was about to read a marked content, Wen Siyuan's voice suddenly came from the side: "Do you want to read this book?"

Wu Luming stopped and looked at Wen Siyuan, and found that Wen Siyuan had stopped what he was doing and was looking at him.

He was a little confused so he nodded.

Just after nodding, Wen Siyuan suddenly leaned sideways towards him.

The pages of the book in his hand were turned, and he turned to the frontmost catalog page.

"That can't be flipped around like just now." Wen Siyuan's voice sounded again, "This puzzle book is different from ordinary books. There will be a clue at the end of each chapter. If you accidentally flip it, it will affect you. The reading experience of the previous chapters."

As he said, he raised his finger and pointed to several places with asterisks on the catalog page: "There are also these places, which I habitually marked with reasoning when I read them. If I read them in advance, it will also affect the reading experience, which will greatly reduce How engaging this book is.”

Wen Siyuan focused all his attention on the book when he was speaking, and after he finished speaking, he realized belatedly that he seemed to be a little too close to Wu Luming.

The chairs of the two people were originally next to each other, and it was easy to cross the boundary line if they put it on the armrest at will.

When Wu Luming just got the book back, he didn't put the book on the desk, but put his legs on the spacious chair, and put the bookshelf between his knees.

Because Wen Siyuan pointed out the directory to Wu Luming, his whole body almost fell in front of Wu Luming.

When he reacted, he turned his face away, and found that Wu Luming's face was so close to his that there was only about a fist's distance left.

The distance between them was so close that their breaths seemed to be intertwined.

Seeing this, Wen Siyuan wanted to retreat subconsciously, but just as he was about to move, what Xu Qiqi said a few days ago suddenly sounded in his mind.

He paused, and his gaze returned to Wu Luming's face.

Wu Luming lowered his eyes, and his eyes fell on the book, as if he was seriously looking at the places Wen Siyuan pointed out just now.

But if you look closely, you will find that his pupils are a little dilated.

He seemed to be breathing lightly on purpose, probably because of this action, his eyelashes trembled slightly uncontrollably.

The distance between the two now allows Wen Siyuan to clearly see the fluff on Wu Luming's face.

The skin on Wu Luming's face is very clean, so clean that there are no blemishes. In addition, the skin is fair, and almost any abnormalities can be easily detected.

Wen Siyuan's eyes fell, and fell on the faint pink on the side of Wu Luming's face that seemed to be floating out.

Thoughts flickered across his eyes, and then he said softly: "Xiao Ming, can you hold my water glass for me?"

After he finished speaking, he saw Wu Luming blinking his eyes slowly, and seemed to realize it after a pause for a while, and quickly got up to get the cup for him in response.

He moved so fast that he didn't seem to think at all, why Wen Siyuan's cup was obviously on his side, and it was easier for him to hold it by himself, but he asked him to help it.

Wen Siyuan took the cup, thanked him, and retreated to his chair thoughtfully.

·

"Of course, this method may not be completely accurate." Xu Qiqi put down her hand that was holding her face, and said with emotion, "Humans inevitably like to appreciate beautiful things, so sometimes they are easy to be shy when they meet handsome men and beautiful women."

Wen Siyuan heard this and asked objectively, "Am I handsome?"

"Of course!" Xu Qiqi said without thinking.

"Then give me another backup method." Wen Siyuan said seriously.

Xu Qiqi looked confused: "No, what does this have to do with whether you are handsome or not?"

Wen Siyuan thought about his words in silence.

Xu Qiqi waved her hand directly: "Give me another one, I'll keep this one for sure. Once a person likes someone, he can't help but want to search for the other person at any time. This phenomenon is easier in places where there are more people. Frequent appearances, ordinary friends go out to play, and basically only look for each other's figure when they have something to do, so once or twice is normal, but if it's just an hour and you can't help but watch it seven or eight times or ten times, then There is definitely a problem."

·

There are only morning classes on Wednesdays.

After participating in the school's selection competition in the afternoon, Wu Luming returned home with nothing to do.

Wen Siyuan didn't seem too busy these two days, and he was free to go home for dinner on Tuesday and Wednesday.

It was still around six o'clock after dinner this day.

Wu Luming stood at the door of the kitchen and stared at Wen Siyuan who had to wash the dishes in fear, and he let out a long sigh of relief when he saw that he had finished washing the dishes in peace.

Just when he was about to leave, Wen Siyuan's voice suddenly sounded: "Do you want to go out for a stroll?"

Wu Luming stopped, turned around and looked at Wen Siyuan again.

Wen Siyuan washed his hands, took off his apron and said, "There is a park nearby, which is very suitable for taking a walk after dinner to digest food."

Wu Luming suddenly remembered the small park that Fang Sichen mentioned was very suitable for walking in the convenience store at the entrance of the community.

"Brother Yuan often goes?" He asked aloud.

"I don't go very often, sometimes I'm not busy, and when the weather is nice, I'll go."

Wen Siyuan said and walked out of the kitchen: "The weather is nice today, I'll take you there for a while, and if I'm not at home, you can go there by yourself when you're bored."

Wu Luming heard the words and had no objection, so he nodded and agreed.

Probably because it happened to be surrounded by residential areas. At this time after dinner, the park was full of people.

The sports equipment near the flower beds was occupied by children, and several pavilions were crowded with old people playing Go and watching others play Go.

In the largest open space in the park, a dozen or twenty aunts are gathering in front of a sound system, looking as if they are preparing for tonight's square dance repertoire.

The weather today is good.

The sun has been out for a day during the day, and the sky is still bright at this time in the evening, but the temperature is not high. Walking on the road with a breeze blowing, it is just the right temperature for the body.

The park is not big, and after spending about ten minutes walking around, the two of them were thinking about where to go for the meeting, when a boy's voice suddenly came from the place full of sports equipment.

"Brother Xiaolu!"

Wu Luming heard the sound and looked, and saw Fang Sichen climbing down a slide, running towards him in a bumpy manner.

Panting and running to his side, Fang Sichen warmly invited: "Brother Xiaolu, do you want to play with us!"

He said, pointing to the slide behind him.

Wu Luming looked in the direction he was pointing, and found that the other two children who chipped in to buy candy at the convenience store at the gate of the community were also there.

Seeing him looking over, the two children happily waved at him.

He looked away, and heard Fang Sichen excitedly invite again: "There are also many adults playing over there! Look at that seesaw, and..."

Wu Luming listened to Fang Sichen's detailed introduction, and subconsciously glanced at Wen Siyuan.

Fang Sichen happened to see Wu Luming looking at Wen Siyuan, he thought Wu Luming was going to play with Wen Siyuan, so he wanted to invite Wen Siyuan to play with him.

But when he raised his head and met Wen Siyuan's rigid and serious face, he was speechless for a moment.

So he didn't do anything else for a long time, just stood aside anxiously, looked at Wu Luming expectantly, and looked at Wen Siyuan apprehensively.

Wu Luming looked a little wanting to laugh, but when he was about to speak, Wen Siyuan's voice sounded first.

"Go and play with them."

Wu Luming looked at Wen Siyuan: "What about you?"

Wen Siyuan's gaze swept around, and finally landed on the gazebo not far away.

He raised his hand and pointed to the gazebo full of old men, and said seriously: "I'll go there and stay for a while."

Wu Luming looked in the direction he pointed, and couldn't help being stunned.

Wen Siyuan seemed to see his doubts, and objectively commented: "When I came here, I saw them a few times, and their chess skills are very good."

No wonder Fang Sichen had never seen Wen Siyuan in the park before, Wu Luming suddenly thought, it's because every time he came, he just squeezed into the crowd of uncles.

In other words, he still delayed Wen Siyuan from watching the uncle play chess.

Wu Luming immediately stopped talking, waved his hand and let Wen Siyuan go.

As soon as Wen Siyuan left, he followed Fang Sichen to the equipment area.

The other two kids were having fun with other kids on the slide.

It happened that there were not many people in the place where the swings were played, so Wu Luming and Fang Sichen went over to occupy a swing alone.

Wu Luming found that Wen Siyuan broke into the uncle's interior very quickly.

When he and Fang Sichen arrived at the swing, Wen Siyuan was still standing on the outer circle.

After he wandered around with Fang Sichen for a while, when he looked over again, he found that Wen Siyuan had already had a decent chat with a few old men standing in the inner circle.

Probably talking about chess.

Judging by the familiar appearance, it should be that I have watched and played chess with my uncle a lot.

Wu Luming was looking at it and found it interesting, when Wen Siyuan, who was talking to the uncle over there, suddenly turned his face and looked straight at him.

The eyes of the two people collided in an instant, and before Wu Luming could react, Wen Siyuan took the lead to withdraw his gaze.

Seeing this, Wu Luming didn't pay much attention.

He looked away and chatted with Fang Sichen for a while, and when he looked over for the second time, he found that Wen Siyuan had successfully squeezed into the uncle's inner circle.

Wen Siyuan's height is particularly abrupt among the elders, so whether he is standing in the outer circle or the inner circle, he can be caught at a glance.

Not long after Wu Luming looked over, Wen Siyuan seemed to sense it again, and turned to look at him.

The two looked at each other again, and Wu Luming had some doubts in his heart.

However, before he could think about it, Fang Sichen who was at the side suddenly said, "Xia Xingluo hasn't come to school for several days?"

Wu Luming was taken aback for a moment, then looked back at Fang Sichen: "Why?"

Fang Sichen leaned on the hanging rope of the swing and shook his head: "The teacher said that their family is going to move, but I saw him at the gate of the community yesterday."

As he was speaking, he suddenly looked around like a little adult, and then, with a secretive gesture, he leaned into Wu Luming's ear and whispered mysteriously: "My grandma said, she has a My friend works in a factory with Xia Xingluo's mother, and his mother hasn't gone to work for several days."

After Fang Sichen finished speaking in a low voice, he amplified his voice and said with emotion: "Brother Xiaolu, do you think Xia Xingluo is really going to move? I just recently felt that he seems to be nice, and I wanted him to be good friends with us. "

Wu Luming thought about it and didn't respond right away, Fang Sichen muttered and quickly moved on to the next topic.

When Wu Luming came back to his senses, Fang Sichen had already mentioned the little robot he bought last time.

Wu Luming was fascinated by what he heard, and subconsciously looked at Wen Siyuan again, and found that Wen Siyuan had actually stood in the innermost circle of the elders in a short period of time.

Seeing that posture, it seemed that he was going to play the next game.

Just as he was thinking, Wen Siyuan suddenly looked at him again with a premonition.

The two met eyes three times in just 10 minutes. The first two times were accidental, but the third time always gave Wu Luming the illusion that Wen Siyuan had been waiting for him.

He looked at Wen Siyuan thoughtfully, and vaguely felt that when Wen Siyuan looked at him in the distance, he seemed to be thinking about something too.

·

"It's strange."

Wu Luming rested his right elbow on the desk, looked at the podium where people were coming and going, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion in a low voice.

Unexpectedly, as soon as his voice fell, he heard a sentence from the side: "It's very strange."

He turned his head in doubt, and found that Qian Weichang was doing exactly the same movements as him, and he was also staring at the podium with his head in a daze.

There are still about ten minutes before the class starts, and there are not too many people in the classroom at this time, chatting and fetching water.

"What are you wondering about?" Wu Luming asked Qian Weichang aloud.

"We had a good chat two days ago, why did you suddenly..." Qian Weichang was halfway feeling, when he turned his head to meet Wu Luming's gaze, he seemed to wake up suddenly, and quickly changed his words, "I mean , It's so strange, didn't those idiots who were beaten by you say that they will find someone to surround you this week, why haven't they moved yet?"

Wu Luming didn't expose Qian Weichang's inconsistency, he asked quietly: "Do you really want me to be surrounded?"

Qian Weichang realized that he had said something wrong, and quickly shook his head crazily, and said in an extremely doggy way: "How is it possible, Brother Ming! Just wait, I will go to Dark Shark and the others in these two days!"

Wu Luming laughed lightly.

Seeing this, Qian Weichang quickly changed the subject: "Then why are you surprised?"

Wu Luming put his hands back on the table and held his head again: "It's strange who I pursue."

"Oh, the pursuit of the object... Damn! The pursuit of the object?!"

Qian Weichang's eyes widened in shock, followed by something he thought of, and suddenly he stammered and asked, "Who...who is it? Have you recently taken a fancy to it?"

"I fell in love with it before I went to college, and I happened to meet again some time ago."

"We've known each other before." Qian Weichang seemed to heave a sigh of relief, and flew up after the gossip soul, "Why is she so strange?"

Wu Luming thought about it, and said softly: "When I first expressed something to him, he was completely reticent. But recently, he seems to be different."

When Qian Weichang heard it, he couldn't help feeling: "That's great, isn't this a good sign? It proves that she has loosened up on you."

Wu Luming lightly tapped his face with his hand resting his head, his tone clearly confused: "But what is the opportunity? Any change should have an opportunity, his opportunity...what is it?"

Qian Weichang couldn't help sighing: "It's great if there is a change, why do you care about the opportunity? It's not like me... Hey, Lao Wu, next Monday is Eleven, do you have any arrangements?"

Wu Luming shook his head.

"That's just right." Qian Weichang turned on his phone and sent a QR code to Wu Luming, "I booked a restaurant a long time ago, and their restaurant is very popular on November [-], so I can't go now, so you can take the person you are after. Just scan the QR code to enter, I wish you the eleventh holiday and catch up with people.”

·

"How's the progress?"

As soon as Xu Qiqi entered the office, she expressed concern for Wen Siyuan to the point.

Wen Siyuan clipped the bookmark to the page he was reading, closed the book, and promised: "There is a result."

Xu Qiqi held her own chair and sat beside Wen Siyuan: "What do you mean?"

Wen Siyuan was silent and didn't answer right away, as if he was thinking.

At this time, his mobile phone on the table vibrated twice.

He glanced and found that it was the message from Wu Luming.

[Brother Yuan, do you have any arrangements for Eleven? 】

[If there is no arrangement, how about we go to aa restaurant for dinner on November? 】

Xu Qiqi's position happened to be able to see the content on Wen Siyuan's mobile phone, and he immediately smiled and said, "How can this be counted? This is an appointment to go to a couple's restaurant for dinner. How much more definite result do you want?"

"What couple hotel?"

"Aa Hotel, you don't know about this?" Xu Qiqi looked surprised, "This is one of the most famous couple restaurants in City A. I originally planned to take my wife there on November [-], but I couldn't get a seat a week ago."

Wen Siyuan heard the words, looked again at the message sent by Wu Luming on the phone, and did not speak for a long time.

Seeing this, Xu Qiqi patted him on the shoulder: "Okay brother, why are you hesitating here? You have spent so much effort to figure out that you like her, why are you still hesitating when you come to the door?"

"Why do you think I like him?" Wen Siyuan looked up at Xu Qiqi.

"Who else is there besides her? You haven't seen anyone to chat with in the past 800 years. I don't believe you have anyone else to chat with you."

"Chat?" Wen Siyuan looked puzzled.

Xu Qiqi couldn't help but sighed: "Your emotional intelligence really deserves that you can't find a partner in eight lifetimes. Didn't I teach you to chat with people last time in City F? If people are not interested in you, it's okay to chat with you." So much nonsense?"

Wen Siyuan seemed to understand a little bit: "So you knew that he liked me at that time?"

"Isn't this obvious? You probably won't be able to see it in the whole world."

Wen Siyuan was silent for a moment: "Why didn't you tell me that you can still judge like this?"

"What and what?" Xu Qiqi looked strange.

Soon he realized, "No, bro, so when you asked me to judge, it was to judge whether the other party likes you, not whether you like her or not?"

"Why should I judge whether I like him or not?" Wen Siyuan was puzzled.

Xu Qiqi was puzzled: "According to what you mean, you have no interest in her at all?"

Wen Siyuan didn't answer right away, he lowered his eyes, and after a long silence, he said in a very serious tone: "He is completely different from the future partner I imagined."

"Why is it different?"

There was another long silence before Wen Siyuan spoke again: "It's hard to cross."

As he spoke, he paused for a while, and then added softly: "It's like the mountains and forests after heavy snow blocks the mountains. If cars can't drive in, people will be engulfed and unable to leave."

Xu Qiqi almost blurted out "fart" when she heard Wen Siyuan's words.

He doesn't understand others, but Wen Siyuan is more or less clear to him.

If Wen Siyuan had no interest in this person at all, he would not have cared whether the other party liked him or not, let alone bothered to verify it.

He was thinking very sadly how he could knock Wen Siyuan's head sober, but suddenly he changed his mind, and immediately thought of it.

He immediately put away his expression of hating iron for being weak, leaned back leisurely on the back of the chair behind him, and said, "Since you think so, you should explain it clearly to others."

"say clearly?"

"Hmm." Xu Qiqi shrugged, "You already know that people like you, but you don't like them. If you don't make it clear to her, then you're hanging on to her. I don't think you should, do you?"

There was another long silence, so quiet that Xu Qiqi wondered if Wen Siyuan had fallen asleep with his eyes open, and Wen Siyuan finally made a sound again.

"You're right." Wen Siyuan spoke in a soft but serious voice, "I'll make it clear to him."

"Okay, after you make it clear, remember to give me her contact information." Xu Qiqi said it naturally, as if she just asked Wen Siyuan to bring him a meal for the evening.

Wen Siyuan's expression froze, he raised his eyes to look at Xu Qiqi, and solemnly reminded: "You have a wife and children."

"Don't doubt my loyalty to my wife!" Xu Qiqi clapped her hands, "I have a wife and child, but our little Cen is not dating yet! Didn't you say it before, the child who chatted with you is good-looking and has a good temper. Okay, you can cook, why don't you introduce it to us, Xiao Cen?"

"Oh, I'm still 20, and our little Cen is just 22. This age is not much more suitable than some people who are going to be three soon? I think our little Cen has helped me a lot these years. He is handsome and so A good student is an excellent teacher, and I should introduce him to a good partner."

Wen Siyuan's expression gradually became indifferent, and the moment Xu Qiqi finished speaking the last word with joy, he directly said indifferently: "Impossible."

"Why is it impossible? If you tell people clearly, they will have nothing to do with you at all. When did you become so stingy? Or are you not going to make it clear to people?"

"I'll make it clear to him." Wen Siyuan reopened the book on the table and put the bookmark aside, "But it's impossible to introduce it to Cen Xiwen."

After speaking, he made it clear that he would not have any more conversations with Xu Qiqi, and started reading the book.

The author has something to say:

Xiaowen: Cen Xiwen (×)

Don't worry, kids, I won't abuse you
