Pretend to be nice

August in Nancheng has not yet escaped the control of summer, and the heat is pervasive. Even the occasional breeze has no effect.

Lin Gu'an, who came back from the dance studio, was thinking about Aunt Xia's entrustment while walking—her daughter would come to Lin Gu'an's place to stay for a while.

Lin Guan has a cold personality, likes to be quiet, and prefers to live alone. Since college, he has never lived with others, and has never thought of living with anyone. This is particularly repulsive to Lin Guan.

But there are too many favors owed to Aunt Xia, and Lin Gu'an has no way to refuse.

In the past, she ran around when she was young and had no stable residence. It was not until last year that she suddenly wanted to settle down in Nancheng.

It was quick and easy when the idea came up, but it was troublesome to settle in a city without parents and relatives. Fortunately, Aunt Xia, a good girlfriend of Linmu’s university, lived in this city for many years, and she wanted to be with Lin Guan’s mother. His old relationship helped her solve a lot of troubles.

The house and dance studio that Lin Guan lives in are bought from others at a low price.

Auntie Xia's house is a second-hand house in an old community, but the location is exceptionally good. It is located in the university town of Nancheng. Most of the residents are old people who have retired from their work units. They are polite and easy to talk. They are usually quiet and not noisy. No matter where you put it, you don't have to worry about selling it, and Aunt Xia is not short of money, so the house will not run away. If Aunt Xia didn't take care of her, this house would stay in her hands for many years.

Not to mention the pavements, how many bad pavements are there in the university town?Moreover, it is very close to her house, and it takes only ten minutes to get there by walking. Aunt Xia sold these things to her at almost lower than the market price, which is not a small favor.

Not to mention the later decoration, she also helped a lot, otherwise Lin Gu'an settled down in a city that was almost unfamiliar, and I don't know how many detours he would have taken and how much money he would have spent.

Therefore, Lin Guan absolutely cannot postpone this entrustment.

Lin Gu'an was thinking about things while walking, and arrived at the gate of the community without knowing it.

Aunt Xia called again, saying that the child was waiting at the door, and then thanked her politely, and said that she transferred some money to her, which would be used as the food expenses for the child living with her during this time.

Lin Gu'an quickly refused, but Aunt Xia couldn't hold back, thinking that the child's food expenses should not be much, at worst, he would buy more things for the child in the future, so he nodded and accepted.

As soon as the phone was hung up, the transfer information of the bank card jumped on the screen of the phone. Lin Gu'an looked at the seven-digit number and was stunned for a moment, feeling even more headache.

Lin Gu'an unconsciously quickened his pace, thinking of the child that Aunt Xia mentioned two days ago.

Aunt Xia's child, named Li Qinghe, is five years younger than her. He is a freshman in the director department of nearby A University. According to Aunt Xia, she used to be well-behaved and sensible.

When she was a freshman, she didn't know why she suddenly entered the rebellious period and skipped a semester of classes. Auntie Xia found a relationship and a leader to talk about it, so she was not expelled, but she was still retained and had to go to freshman again.

She was afraid that Li Qinghe would be embarrassed to live in the same dormitory with a school girl who was a year younger than her when she was a freshman again. Off-campus, but their home is far away from the university town, and it takes an hour to drive, which is really inconvenient, so I can only trouble Lin Guan for a while.

On Lin Gu'an's side, Li Qinghe could not live in the school, or he could ask Lin Gu'an to help Aunt Xia look after this occasionally rebellious child.

Therefore, Lin Gu'an's first impression of Li Qinghe was not very good. She felt that he was a child with an unstable personality who was not easy to get along with and would suddenly go crazy. She had a headache.

She turned into the shady corridor, the stuffy heat dissipated, and she felt light all over for a moment, sighed silently in her heart, and walked up the stairs.

Li Qinghe, who is difficult to get along with and has sudden convulsions, has been standing at the door for a long time. In fact, she wants to sit in the suitcase or on the stairs, whichever is fine, as long as she doesn't stand all the time, but she doesn't want to give Xia Zhicheng's sister a bad impression. , so she stood straight in a daze, facing the probing eyes of passers-by who occasionally passed by, although she didn't know that Ms. Xia had said nothing about her image.

She bent her legs, and her stiff legs were densely numb, as if a creeper on the wall of an old building was climbing rocks on her legs.

She could only stand, it was very pitiful, she felt like a poor little person who no one wanted, but the middle-aged woman who was going upstairs didn't think much of it, she had gone up and down twice, she looked at her with what she felt was a hidden gaze The person who has been standing at the door, thinking that in two days there will be fresh gossip about her personal experience in the circle of beautiful aunts in the community, feels the blood rushing up, trembling with excitement, feeling like a gangster. Evil Mulan.

"You and me, the little girl on the third floor is the pretty dancer, do you remember? I moved here some time ago, and I saw someone blocking the door yesterday."

"I don't look like a good person at first glance. Her eyes are so fierce. I was scared when I saw it. I even brought two suitcases here. Maybe she owed money and didn't pay it back. She came to take valuable things and leave. You don't believe it? Can a young girl afford a house in the city center? Aunt Zhang, tell me, did you see a truck come to carry things for her some time ago?"

She already thought of the way the little sisters in the circle watched her spitting out the world, and wished she could go home and open the wechat group to post her new gossip.

Li Qinghe thinks that aunt is weird, always looking at her with hot eyes, but she respects the old man, and politely smiles and nods at him, but the aunt has bad legs and bad manners, her raised feet paused visible to the naked eye, hurriedly leave.

Li Qinghe froze for a moment, picked up the phone, on the black glass mirror, the light amber pupils were like erratic golden will-o'-the-wisps, her face was expressionless at the moment, but the brow was sharp like a gun with its safety removed.

He really looks like a debt collector, and he might be the top in the debt collection industry. After all, no one wants to meet such strange eyes.

Li Qinghe rubbed his face, lowered his eyes and tried his best to look good, so as not to have too much influence on that person.

When he reached the corner of the third flight of stairs, Lin Gu'an saw a child standing at the door with a guitar on his back. His hair was not very long, and the ends of his hair reached his shoulders. His facial features were not as soft as those of ordinary girls, but stiff and clear. With a sharp jawline and eyebrows and eyes that are rarely melancholy at this age.

Wearing a Japanese style, wearing a loose white short-sleeved shirt one size larger, black overalls, and black and white checkered sneakers.

She looks like a well-behaved and quiet Japanese girl, probably very popular in school, Lin Guan's second impression of her has changed a lot compared to before.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, the child lowered his head and looked up at her. His eyes were stunned for a moment, and then he showed the expected ease. He didn't see any lawless and rebellious appearance, but was a little numb.

Lin Gu'an ignored her staring eyes, lowered his head and went up the stairs.

She walked up to the child, looked at the child, and asked, "Li Qinghe?"

Li Qinghe looked at her with a cold expression, thinking in his heart that maybe he just looked at her in a daze and annoyed her, so he responded stiffly and did not speak.

"My name is Lin Gu'an." She said as she opened the door.

Li Qinghe hummed again, maybe because he felt it was impolite, he added: "They explained it."

Lin Gu'an was colder than the debt collector. If the aunt who just passed by saw this scene, maybe the content of the gossip would change in another way. The boss's woman met with the boss's most important horse.

Lin Gu didn't answer, he pushed open the door and walked in. Ma Zi Li Qinghe pushed two suitcases and followed behind the eldest woman.

After Lin Gu'an changed his shoes on his own, he handed over the disposable slippers that had been left in the shoe cabinet for a long time to Li Qinghe.

The two were expressionless as if they were doing a serious handover ceremony.

Li Qinghe stood up after changing his shoes, and looked at the house openly.

Lin Gu'an frowned again, feeling a little offended that his private territory was being looked at so unscrupulously, and once again felt that accepting this entrustment was a bad thing.

Li Qinghe, who hadn't finished looking at her, felt her emotions very sensitively. Seeing her face getting colder and colder, he quickly retracted the behavior that made Lin Guan unhappy just now, and explained in a low voice: "This has changed too much. I didn't react."

"I have lived here for more than ten years, and I moved to the current house later."

Lin Gu'an didn't know about this, but thought that Li's mother's house was well maintained. It turned out that it was the house he lived in before. No wonder Li Qinghe was asked to wait at the door. Will he get lost after living in the house for more than ten years?

Her complexion softened a little, and she also explained: "I modified a lot later."

Li Qinghe continued: "I almost didn't recognize it. The decoration is quite good. I said before that their house is not in the middle. There are mistakes, and there are too many words.

Lin Gu'an smiled, thinking of Aunt Xia's care and entrustment, and tried to soften her tone, "I don't know what style you like, so I didn't buy you slippers. Will you go to the supermarket later to see?"

Li Qinghe nodded.

Lin Gu'an pointed to the small room next to the door and said: "The previous master bedroom was converted into a dance practice room by me. Now I sleep in the previous second bedroom. This room belongs to you."

Li Qinghe continued to nod.

Lin Gu'an paused for a moment, and said with some embarrassment: "I only arrived a few days before the bed. I was supposed to invite someone to come over and make it work, but I have something to delay these two days."

Li Qinghe nodded again.

Lin Gu'an felt that the child was a bit stupid, his eyes were dull and dull, and he only knew how to nod.

Li Qinghe didn't keep nodding, probably because Lin Guan looked at the fool too clearly.

"It's okay, I'll fight later, do you have a screwdriver?"

Lin Gu'an doubted her ability, and was afraid of hurting the child's self-confidence, so he could only say: "Yes, I will bring you the toolbox."

"It's okay if you can't spell it out, just call a worker later."

Li Qinghe nodded again.

Seeing her insistence, Lin Guan had no choice but to find out the toolbox and give it to her.

Then he tactfully expressed once again that it doesn't matter if he can't spell it out, just ask someone to do it later.

Li Qinghe continued to nod, acting like you said it well, I understand, I don't listen, I can do it.

Lin Gu'an "...", I can only let her play, anyway, the wooden board is not easy to be tossed and damaged, and I have already decided to call someone over later.

Lin Gu'an said: "Are you hungry? If you're not hungry, I'll take a shower first, and then eat after I come out."

Only then did Li Qinghe speak: "I'm not hungry, after you take a bath, I may be almost finished."

Lin Gu'an only thought that she was talking big, and was afraid of hurting the child, so she didn't try to persuade her again. She turned around and affirmed her thoughts. The child might be really stupid, but she didn't see Li Qinghe standing behind, with a smile on her delicate face. upset.

She raised her hand to cover her face and put it down after a while, the emotion on her face had dissipated.

Taking advantage of Lin Gu'an's absence, Li Qinghe took a closer look at this unfamiliar yet familiar house. The style of the house was changed to a more Japanese-style simple style, but due to the warm colors, although the house is simple, it does not look deserted. It looks very warm, anyway, it is not the style of the boss.

The style has changed, but the layout of the house has not changed. This house is an old-fashioned three-bedroom and two-living room structure. When you turn around, it is the room next to the gate. It is also the room that Li Qinghe wants later. It is the smallest room in the house. Li's study.

Li Qinghe stood at the door and looked inside. The room was full of wooden boards wrapped in paper shells, and the door was facing the window.

She remembered that there was a slightly smaller back balcony behind the window, its function should not have changed, it was still a place for washing clothes, the living room faced the open kitchen, the master bedroom and the second bedroom, and the bathroom were all in the innermost.Somewhat far from the small room.

After looking around, Li Qinghe temporarily put the things he brought in the living room, and took the toolbox to the small room by himself.

Drawings and the like are placed on the cardboard.

She first picked up the drawing and looked at it for a while. The simple wooden bed is a very common structure.

Confidently open the toolbox, skillfully find the tools to be used, and after dismantling all the paper shells, he sits on the ground carelessly and builds his own bed.

Lin Guan came over to take a look, only saw the serious back of the child, and left without saying a word.
