struggle in a small town

Chapter 23 My Family Calls Me Xiaoxue
Lin Zhiyuan followed Zhang Xuejiao when she stood up.

Leaning against the wall, he could clearly hear what Zhang Xuejiao said, feeling very complicated.

Back then when Wang Mengyun knew about his love performance, it was completely different from Zhang Xuejiao's current performance.

If Wang Mengyun knew how to avoid suspicion like Zhang Xuejiao, maybe he would not break up with his ex-girlfriend.

Of course, he understands that the biggest responsibility lies with him. If it wasn't for his indecision, he still couldn't make up his mind to break up with Wang Mengyun, which would make Wang Mengyun have redundant thoughts.

Zhang Xuejiao turned around and saw Lin Zhiyuan standing there, twitching the corners of her mouth in an ugly way: "This happened."

"You have such a good relationship with Lei Zi, he must not be used to not seeing each other all of a sudden."

"Maybe." Zhang Xuejiao smiled even uglier: "Habits are a terrible thing."

Lin Zhiyuan's eyes were gentle: "I think it's a good thing. When you get used to coming to my place, our relationship will get better and better."

Zhang Xuejiao always felt that there was something wrong with this sentence, but she couldn't tell what was wrong.

Lin Zhiyuan turned around first: "Let's go there."

"it is good."

The ideal is full, but the reality.
Brutally touching.

The event was held at Lin Zhiyuan's house for more than two months, and the Spring Festival was about to be celebrated, and his relationship with Zhang Xuejiao was only slightly better than ordinary friends.

And three times in the middle, Zhang Xuejiao didn't come because she had something to do, wasting the chance to get along.

To be honest, Lin Zhiyuan was quite anxious, and Song Xiuni reminded him more than once that if he didn't make any progress years ago, he must go on a blind date with Xiaoxue.

Song Xiuni mentioned too much, and Lin Zhiyuan became rebellious, wondering if Xiaoxue had some problems in some aspect, otherwise she would not rely on blind dates to find a partner.

It's just that he only dared to think about it, but didn't dare to say it.

In Song Xiuni's mouth, Xiaoxue is good in everything, she looks pretty and can make money, she treats people well, and most importantly, she has received Huifang's true biography, and her cooking is delicious.

The more Song Xiuni boasted, the more Lin Zhiyuan felt strange.

Such a good girl, there must be a bunch of people rushing to marry her home, how could she be single.

In the past two months, Lin Zhiyuan also met with several classmates to see if there are any opportunities to start a business.

One of them works in the Environmental Protection Bureau and suggested that he start an environmental assessment company, saying that there will definitely be a lot of demand in this area in the future.

Lin Zhiyuan made a serious investigation and felt that there was indeed a prospect, but a large part of the future business would depend on the introduction from the Environmental Protection Bureau.

The water was too deep, and he thought he was not very good at dealing with leaders, so he was afraid that he would not be able to grasp it.

We can only ponder and ponder first.

On January 2012, 1, the last meeting before the Spring Festival.

Lin Zhiyuan got ready early, just waiting for his friends to come and play.

I don't know if it's God's will or everyone's intention. Either there is something at home, or the work is not finished, so I can't come.

In the end, only Zhang Xuejiao came.

Lin Zhiyuan originally thought she was not coming either, but when he opened the door and saw her, he was overjoyed.

Zhang Xuejiao walked into the living room and was surprised to find that it was empty: "Where is the person?"

"It's the Chinese New Year and everyone is busy, but you are the only one."

"Isn't it?" Zhang Xuejiao was quite embarrassed: "Then I'm leaving too, so I won't disturb you."

Lin Zhiyuan plucked up the courage to persuade him to stay: "It's already here, let's sit for a while."

Zhang Xuejiao hesitated.

Before she came, she thought everyone was there, but she didn't expect to be alone.

But they have already entered the door, so it seems that it is not good to go directly.

Lin Zhiyuan tried to persuade him to stay again: "Anyway, I'm quite boring by myself."

"Okay, then I'll sit down for a while."

In the past, there were many people, but Zhang Xuejiao didn't feel anything.

Today, she was alone, suddenly a little cautious.

"Sit down first, and I'll pour you some water."

Lin Zhiyuan hurried into the kitchen.

Zhang Xuejiao sat on the sofa and observed Lin Zhiyuan's nest seriously for the first time.

There are not many things in the living room, coffee table, sofa, bookshelf, nothing else.

In addition to a set of tea sets on the coffee table, there is also an aromatherapy bottle, emitting a faint fragrance.

There are several rows of books neatly arranged on the bookshelf, most of which are novels and some comics.

It can be seen from these that Lin Zhiyuan has good living habits and is a person who loves life.

Zhang Xuejiao once entered Sun Qiang's bedroom, and she didn't mention it. The smell alone was like a biochemical weapon.

In such a comparison, Lin Zhiyuan is like an outlier among men.

Just as he was thinking, Lin Zhiyuan came out with a transparent teapot: "I just bought flower and fruit tea, try it."

"It's troublesome."

"You are so polite, don't you consider me a friend?"

Zhang Xuejiao smiled: "Nothing."

Lin Zhiyuan lit the alcohol, put the glass teapot on it, and sat down beside Zhang Xuejiao: "Is the shop busy?"

"It's very busy. It's the Chinese New Year. Everyone needs to buy new clothes."

"I also have to buy new clothes, and I want you to help me as a staff officer."

Zhang Xuejiao found it strange, and subconsciously refused: "It's either my mother or my girlfriend who buys clothes for men, so it's never my turn."

"I don't have a girlfriend, and my mother's eyes are too old-fashioned, so I can only ask you for help."

Zhang Xuejiao still refused: "It's not suitable, it's really not suitable."

Lin Zhiyuan had no choice but to give up.

The tea boiled, and the sweet aroma wafted out.

Lin Zhiyuan lifted the teapot: "Do you still remember how to turn off the alcohol lamp?"

"Well, cut off the air."

As Zhang Xuejiao said, she lowered her head and covered the seal of the alcohol stove.

Lin Zhiyuan looked at her side face and her long eyelashes, and really wanted to reach out and touch her.

Zhang Xuejiao raised her head: "I suggest you get a small induction cooker, which is more convenient than this."

"Don't you think it's more artistic?"

Zhang Xuejiao laughed: "I have a lot of things to do every day, and I don't have your leisurely mood, so I seek speed and stability."

"A combination of work and rest, you have to rest."

"Well, you're right."

Lin Zhiyuan pushed the teacup to her: "Try."

Zhang Xuejiao reached out and touched it: "I'm used to drinking cold water, this is too hot."

"Let's chat for a while."

"it is good."

After saying a few words, Zhang Xuejiao's phone rang, and she saw that it was her mother calling, so she quickly answered, "Mom."

"Okay, I see, I'll tell Xiao Yu right now."

After hanging up, she looked at Lin Zhiyuan apologetically: "Wait a minute, I have to call my sister."

Lin Zhiyuan was still thinking about the sentence "I'll tell Xiao Yu right now".

Everyone usually calls her Xiao Qiao, why is her nickname Xiao Yu?

Zhang Xuejiao has already dialed Zhang Yuqiao's phone number: "Mom just called me. This weekend, Zhao Yang must go to our house, otherwise you can wait for a good fight."

"If you want me to say, Zhao Yang should have come to the door a long time ago. How long have you two been talking? Almost three years?"

"What's the use of begging me? Mom has spoken, and I don't dare to say anything."

"Hang up, I'm talking to someone."

Lin Zhiyuan watched her hang up the phone, and endured the shock in his heart: "Isn't your sister's name Xiao Qiao?"

Zhang Xuejiao explained with a smile: "Our names are a bit similar. In order to distinguish them, my family called me Xiaoxue and her Xiaoyu."

Lin Zhiyuan only felt a buzzing in his head.

Is there such a coincidence in the world?

The girl I like is probably the Xiaoxue that my mother said about!
Zhang Xuejiao stood up: "I have to go back and appease my mother, we will talk next time."

Lin Zhiyuan sent her downstairs restlessly, watching her leaving back, and decided to get an answer from his mother.
