Chapter 185 Next to Zhen Xin, talking on the phone with Qi Meilan

When the cell phone rings, the dog's eyes will be attracted, let alone a living person like Zhen Xin.

At this moment, when Yang Xingyu saw that the caller ID was Qi Meilan, he felt a little annoyed.

Because every time he went to see Zhen Xin or Qi Meilan in the past, he would subconsciously mute his cell phone in order to avoid the possibility of one of them discovering the existence of the other.

But today he was selling goods here. When he received the call from Zhen Xin, he was still busy selling goods and had no time to mute his phone.

After that, I was so busy that I forgot to silence my phone.

So when Zhen Xin was next to him, his cell phone suddenly rang, and the call happened to be from Qi Meilan.

When he saw the caller ID, he subconsciously glanced at Zhen Xin beside him, and happened to see Zhen Xin's eyes falling on the screen of his mobile phone.

"Qi Meilan? Is this the Qi Meilan among our high school classmates?"

Zhen Xin asked a little surprised.

Yang Xingyu nodded and said yes.

He is not a person who never lies, but he has a habit of never lying when he is not sure that he can deceive the other party.

In this way, he can maintain his credibility as a human being.

Moreover, when he needs to lie, the other party is more likely to be deceived by him.

As for anyone in this world who never lies?

He thinks there should be.

But he also felt that there could only be two types of people who never lied.

One is a fool who is born unable to lie.

The other type is a sincere gentleman who firmly believes that everything must be done to others.

He doesn't think he is qualified to be such a gentleman.

Zhen Xin: "Do you still have contact with her?"

Before Yang Xingyu could answer, Zhen Xin smiled slightly and said casually: "You answer it! It's not good to not answer other people's calls all the time."

Yang Xingyu hummed, and he had an impulse in his heart - he wanted to pretend that he missed it, let the phone fall to the ground, break it, and his current situation would naturally be solved.

But reason told him - under normal circumstances, the phone is not so fragile. Unless he slams the phone on the ground hard, it will probably be difficult to break.

Moreover, if he broke his phone at this time, it might cause Zhen Xin to doubt his relationship with Qi Meilan.

In the blink of an eye, Yang Xingyu had stabilized his mind, answered the call with a natural expression, put the phone to his ear, and said: "Old classmate! It seems you are in a hurry! Don't worry! I will remember that! I'll call tomorrow Let’s go see you, okay?”

Qi Meilan: "..."

Qi Meilan might have been a little confused by his words. After being silent for a few seconds, she asked, "What's going on? What do you remember?"

The Samsung mobile phone in Yang Xingyu's hand was bought not long ago. The call quality is not bad, but it will never achieve the effect of turning on the external voice without turning on the external voice like some elderly phones.

Therefore, Yang Xingyu was not worried that Zhen Xin next to him could hear Qi Meilan's words.

What he needs to do now is - nothing he says can make Zhen Xin doubt his relationship with Qi Meilan.

At the same time, what he said must not make Qi Meilan confused and unable to understand it at all.

Otherwise, even if he did not arouse Zhen Xin's suspicion, it would arouse Qi Meilan's suspicion of him.

This is a great test of his skills!
"It's Valentine's Day tomorrow! You don't have any other dates tomorrow, right? Haha, if you don't have any other dates tomorrow, then I'll come over to see you tomorrow. I can still spare some time!"

Zhen Xin lowered her head and ate the stewed vegetables calmly.

She didn't seem surprised by what he said.

Qi Meilan, who was on the other end of the phone, laughed and said, "What are you talking about? Who else can I date besides you tomorrow? When will you come over tomorrow?"

Qi Meilan probably thought he was joking just now.

The fact is - Yang Xingyu's joke just now was serious.

He was very serious and thought of using this joke in a way that would neither make Zhen Xin suspicious nor Qi Meilan suspicious.

"Oh, then tomorrow afternoon! I should be able to spare some time tomorrow afternoon."

In front of Zhen Xin, he did not dare to say that he would see Qi Meilan at night.

Because on a day like tomorrow, if he goes to see Qi Meilan at night, Zhen Xin will probably doubt his relationship with Qi Meilan.

In comparison, it is much safer to see Qi Meilan during the day.

Qi Meilan: "Oh, okay! Then I'll wait for your call tomorrow afternoon." Yang Xingyu: "Well, that's it? I'm selling goods in the store now, and there will be customers on the phone at any time."

Qi Meilan: "Oh, that's right, okay! Your business is so big, but you still want to sell your own goods?"

Yang Xingyu laughed at himself, "I can't help it. It's almost the Chinese New Year, and two salesmen suddenly resigned. If I don't take over myself, there won't be enough manpower."

Qi Meilan: "Then you still have time to come back tomorrow?"

Yang Xingyu: "Well, there is still time to come back, but I have to come back before 4 o'clock tomorrow afternoon to continue selling goods, so you may have to cooperate with my time tomorrow."

Qi Meilan: "Are you in such a hurry? Okay, I understand, let's just say this! See you tomorrow!"

Yang Xingyu: "See you tomorrow!"

Yang Xingyu was about to hang up the call when Qi Meilan suddenly said in a lowered voice on the phone: "Hey, I miss you. Since you are pressed for time tomorrow, I will wait for you in the house we rent."

Yang Xingyu: "???"

His heart skipped a beat and he subconsciously glanced at Zhen Xin beside him.

Zhen Xin was still eating the braised vegetables with her head down, and didn't seem to hear what Qi Meilan just said. Yang Xingyu calmed down before replying: "Well, that's the best! See you tomorrow!"

Qi Meilan: "Well, see you tomorrow!"

After the call ended, Yang Xingyu felt relieved, put the phone back into his trouser pocket, looked at Zhen Xin, and told her the excuse he had just thought of.

"Qi Meilan contacted me some time ago. I don't know who she heard from, but she actually knew that I majored in cooking in college. It happened that recently a friend of hers started a business in the county and opened a small restaurant. She thought of my major. An old classmate who majored in cooking contacted me and wanted me to come up with ideas and give some suggestions to her friend’s small restaurant. Originally, I didn’t want to agree. After all, I’m very busy here at the end of the year, right? But she You and I are teachers, and you are very eloquent. I couldn't resist her repeated requests and pleases, so I promised to take some time to go back to the county town recently to help give you advice."

It was not difficult for him to find this excuse.

Because of the original time and space, after the news that he was learning cooking spread among his high school classmates, a female classmate whom he had not contacted for a long time actually called him like this.

Ask him to help taste it and give some advice.

Later, he heard that the reason why the female classmate insisted on asking him to come over and give her advice was because the small restaurant was owned by the lover of his female classmate.

After listening to Yang Xingyu's explanation, Zhen Xin stopped using the chopsticks in her hands, turned to look at Yang Xingyu, smiled lightly, and nodded slightly.

He said casually: "Then let me go with you tomorrow? It just so happens that I haven't seen Qi Meilan for a long time. You just said that she is also a teacher now? Then I will just share with her tomorrow about my experience as a teacher."

Yang Xingyu: "???"

What is the state of being dumbfounded?
What is Yang Xingyu's state at this time.

When he was thinking of an excuse just now, he only considered whether the excuse he made sounded reasonable?
He never thought that Zhen Xin would make such a proposal after hearing his excuse.

She actually wanted to follow him back to the county town to meet Qi Meilan?
She just came to the city this evening and would follow him back to the county town tomorrow. Wouldn't she feel annoyed?

Yang Xingyu felt a little panicked.

Because if Zhen Xin and Qi Meilan really meet, with their intelligence, his secret of having two boats will definitely be exposed.

And he couldn't hide it at all.

Because Zhen Xin would not deliberately hide their relationship when she was with him. Similarly, Qi Meilan would definitely have some intimate behavior when she saw him, even if Qi Meilan didn't want to disclose her relationship with him in front of Zhen Xin. , the way Qi Meilan looked at him would also give Zhen Xin clues.

After all, Qi Meilan's acting skills are not that good.

She is not a professional actor.

"You want to go together?"

Yang Xingyu frowned and asked.

This is his true reaction.

Zhen Xin tilted her head slightly, "What? No?"

Yang Xingyu began to present facts and reason, "That's okay, but I will be selling goods here at noon and evening tomorrow. When I finish work at noon, it will be past one o'clock in the afternoon. I have to rush back here before 4 o'clock in the afternoon. , only about two and a half hours in between. That’s it. It took me almost two hours on my way back and forth, maybe even more. Calculating this, the time I stayed in Qi Meilan’s friend’s store would not exceed half a hour. Hours, time is so tight, why are you following me back and forth? Half an hour may not even be enough time to finish a cup of tea, so even if you go with me, I'm afraid you won't have time to communicate with Qi Meilan."

Zhen Xin frowned slightly and stared at him with squinted eyes, "You don't want me to go with you?"

Yang Xingyu laughed and sighed: "I just don't want you to follow me back and forth like this. Time is too late. Besides, Qi Meilan and I haven't contacted each other for several years. If she hadn't contacted me recently, I wouldn't even remember her. I don’t have any friendship with her. She asked me to help this time. I’ll take you with me..."

At this point, Yang Xingyu stretched out his hand to gesture to Zhen Xin's face, and continued with a smile: "What's going on when such a beautiful girlfriend comes over? If Qi Meilan's partner accidentally falls in love with you, how embarrassing will it be? You Say so?"

In order to dispel Zhen Xin's idea of ​​going together, Yang Xingyu casually made up an unreasonable date for Qi Meilan.

Zhen Xin was surprised when she heard this, "Will Qi Meilan's partner like me? What do you mean? Her partner will also be there tomorrow?"

Yang Xingyu nodded, "Well, I heard that the small restaurant she asked me to help look after was opened by her partner and his friends, so her partner should be there tomorrow."

Zhen Xin squinted at Yang Xingyu, as if she was trying to tell whether what he just said was true or false?
