Together we are the world

Chapter 4 The Unexpected Suitor

[I don't believe that the domineering president falls in love with me. 】

Xiao Yi sells goods, Shen Mi is beside him, and the emoji packs are no longer enough.

From seven o'clock to ten o'clock curfew, Shen Mi has been playing the role of an unplugged loudspeaker, while Xiao Yi has become a gold medal salesman who talks, laughs and flirts.

"Nine hundred and ninety-six yuan!" Shen Mi finished counting the last one, and her excited eyes were like light bulbs with hundreds of watts, shining in surprise. "Wow! You are amazing! You sold 96 yuan in one night!"

Xiao Yi didn't find it surprising: "It's just four pieces of clothes and two bottles of perfume."

Shen Mi's voice was about to smoke, and she said hoarsely: "God, if this is the case, there are still a lot of rags in my house. I will hire you and you will be my salesman, okay? I will give you a commission."

Xiao Yi rolled up the yoga mat and stuffed it into her big bag: "Thinking about money makes you crazy."

Don't talk about cynicism, even if Xiao Yi scolds her now, she will treat him like a god.

"Are you hungry too? Let's go, I'll treat you to dinner! Tell me, do you want French food or Indian food?" Shen Mi held a thick roll of money in one hand, dancing with joy, her withered stomach gurgling cry.

Xiao Yi picked up the things he had packed, scratched the bag on his hand that was bitten by mosquitoes, and said, "French food, Indian food, and you want to spend all this money? Okay, I'll take you to TB to eat Meal."

TB is the most expensive French restaurant in the city center.

Xiao Yi held her handbag in one hand, and held her hand holding the money with the other. When Shen Mi heard TB, she immediately held the money to her chest, and suddenly acted!
!

Her almond eyes widened, imitating "Ke Yun" in "Deep Love and Rain" who went crazy: "What are you going to do? What are you going to do? This money is my life! I don't want to go to TB! I don't want it!"

She shook her head and looked terrified, making Xiao Yi laugh.

"Crazy." He scolded her with a smile.

Shen Mi returned to normal, she giggled, and followed beside him: "Then tell me, what do you eat?"

"Do you like sweet or spicy?" Xiao Yi asked.

"spicy."

"Let's go!" His long legs are always faster than his mouth.

B University is Xiao Yi's alma mater, so finding an affordable gourmet restaurant is not a problem for him.

Ten o'clock in the evening is the time for college students to go to bed, and it is also the time for the shops on the street to close.

A few shops on both sides were closed, and some still had their lights on. The ground was in a mess, sticks from eating skewers, and torn packaging bags were all hygienic problems left by the stalls.

There was no one else on the road, and occasionally I ran into one or two students who were in a hurry and wanted to run back before bed was closed, and there were also young couples who had just come out of the campus, their shoulders and backs hooked like glue, and the boys turned into the alley with their arms around the girls. In the small hotel in the village, the girl looked around, as if she was afraid of being seen.

Shen Mi's hands tightly clutched the chain bag on her back, which contained tonight's spoils, and followed Xiao Yi's footsteps, and slowly walked into an old neighborhood.

There are many trees in the community, the distance between the buildings is not large, and the lights are on in every house. I don’t know which one is practicing the violin. It looks like a beginner. It creaks, like the sound of accidentally stepping on a can.

Shen Mi threw the soda can she stepped on into the trash can, and felt that the neighborhood was a bit dark, so she chased after Xiao Yi and walked side by side with Xiao Yi.

"Are you sure you're not going to sell me?" Shen Mi asked vigilantly at the black cat on the wall staring at her.

Xiao Yi said: "What? You still want to use your own four dollars to make up for it?"

Shen Mi glared at him: "I'm a big girl with yellow flowers, so I'm only worth four yuan?"

Xiao Yi suddenly stopped, turned his head, and frowned at her under the streetlight.That look was like looking at an alien.

Shen Mi didn't know what his scrutinizing eyes meant, and asked inexplicably: "Why, did I say something wrong?"

Xiao Yi turned into that ruffian again, with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "No, it's just too much information."

Mountain darkly, vista.

In this dark and dilapidated neighborhood, Shen Mi finally saw a glimmer of light, turned a corner, and the snack bar appeared in front of her eyes.

It was a small shop without a signboard. The owner opened up the balcony on the first floor and turned it into a door. Five or six small tables were set up outside, and a wire was connected to hang it on a wooden pole. It became a place in this quiet neighborhood. A unique landscape.

The five or six tables were already full. The strange thing was that the guests were drinking beer and eating fried skewers, but no one spoke loudly. It was not like other barbecue stalls at all.

"Sit." Xiao Yi took a plastic stool for her from nowhere.

Shen Mi smoothed her skirt with her hands, and sat down gracefully beside the small square table that was as big as the lid of a suitcase. There was oil on the table that was not wiped clean, so she had to put her hands on her knees.

Xiao Yi is quite a gentleman, he looks like he often goes out to eat with girls, first he pushed the menu over and asked her to order, Shen Mi took the menu and asked, "Why don't people here talk?"

Xiao Yi looked at the male boss who was busy inside and outside the house, the male boss also saw him, smiled and waved to him, Xiao Yi also waved, and the male boss limped into the room with a plate.

Xiao Yi said: "The boss here used to be an armed police officer. He rushed to rescue during the Wenchuan earthquake and broke his leg, so he opened a fried skewer restaurant in this community. Restaurants were not allowed to open in the community, so the boss Please don’t speak loudly when you are eating, people who come here have developed the habit of speaking in a low voice over time, for fear that other neighbors in the community will embarrass him.”

Shen Mi looked at the lame boss, then at the customers who bowed their heads and whispered, and suddenly felt warm in her heart.

This reminded her of Van Gogh's "Cafe at Night". Under the dark blue and quiet night sky, the warm yellow lights became a safe haven for night walkers.Shen Mi felt that if Van Gogh was here, he would be able to paint such warm and shocking works.

Shen Mi came here for the first time, and she didn't know what was delicious, so she asked Xiao Yi to order. Xiao Yi ordered 20 skewers of fried sausages, 20 skewers of veal, and two bowls of pearl soup.

"Why is this fried skewer so delicious?" Shen Mi asked.

Xiao Yi said, "You will know after eating."

Not long after, the fried skewers came up.

The boss patted Xiao Yi on the shoulder and whispered, "It's been a long time since I came here!"

"Well, I don't want to go so far alone." Xiao Yi said.

The boss smiled and looked at Shen Mi: "This time we are together, come here often!"

Xiao Yi glanced at Shen Mi, and Shen Mi immediately lowered her head to drink the pearl soup.

As soon as the boss left, Shen Mi couldn't wait any longer, picked up a skewer and put it in her mouth, but Xiao Yi clapped her hands, and he snatched the skewer as soon as it reached her mouth.

"It's not like this." He showed him a beef skewer.

There were two iron plates in front of her, one plate was filled with yellow seasoned noodles, the other plate was filled with red chili noodles, Xiao Yi first rolled the fried skewers on the yellow plate, and then rolled them on the red plate. Dip it in the chili noodles before handing it to her.

"Eat."

Shen Mi took the skewer, put it in her mouth and took a bite, said "Mmm" heavily, her eyes widened: "It's delicious! It's delicious! The beef is delicious and the seasoning is delicious, but this chili is really too spicy." It's hot."

Shen Mi ate heartily, Xiao Yi went to the refrigerator to get two bottles of iced soda.

"Crack!" He easily broke open the soda with chopsticks, put one bottle in Shen Mi's hand, and he drank the other bottle directly.

Shen Mi stared at the way he was drinking soda with his head up, then lowered his head and picked up a fried skewer without eating it, holding it in his hand.

"Xiao Yi, I heard that your father is a hero fighting floods?"

Xiao Yi's expression was calm.The years seemed to have washed away that painful past, and the influence of his father's death on him could no longer be found on his face.

"Who said that?"

"When I was in high school, I wasn't a little girl, so I always asked about you, and I learned about it from the teacher." Shen Mi regretted it after asking, so she changed the topic to other places, "I remember when you ate in the cafeteria, you always Can get a few more pieces of meat."

Xiao Yi smiled: "Is that because I'm handsome?"

Shen Mi curled her lips: "You are handsome and still single all the time. Your sister is married, and the dolls are all soy sauced. When are you going to find someone?"

Xiao Yi poked the stone plate with a stick, like an impatient child: "You women, why do you like to talk about this kind of topic?"

Like Xiao Xiao, every day is "why don't you find a date yet", who stipulates that you have to find a date after you reach adulthood?If there were no creatures like single dogs, who would go to a bar to drink and watch a football game on Qixi Festival.

Shen Mi smiled: "Oh, who said that just now, I'm handsome! Why are you still single when you're handsome?"

"Being handsome is for falling in love?" Xiao Yi threw the stick away and took a sip of soda.

"That's true."

There was no words for a long time, and the scene was cold.

Later Xiao Yi suddenly said: "It's more interesting to be alone than to be alone."

Shen Mi was slightly taken aback, and nodded in agreement.

"That's fine if you don't fall in love." She said, "You can become a model, or go to a graduate school and find a decent job. You are a high-achieving student, unlike me, who can do nothing."

"You know how to be cute." Xiao Yi said.

"Fuck you!" Shen Mi smiled and threw a stick over.

Xiao Yi smiled, and quickly dodged it.

After returning home at night, Shen Mi packed her things, looked at the empty house, and stood leaning against the wall for a while.

"It's more fun to be alone than to be."

Xiao Yi's words suddenly came out.

Is it really?Why does she now feel that loneliness is the scariest thing in the world?

After Xiao Xiao bathed her son Vogt, she carried the little guy out and wiped his hair on the sofa.

Xiao Yi was reading a novel by Han Han, and laughed out loud from time to time.

Xiao Xiao walked over and took the book out of his hand: "Brother, why don't you review it! Don't blame me for not reminding you! The postgraduate exam is less than half a year away."

Xiao Yi made a gesture of surrender, walked to the desk, and flipped through a few pages of medical textbooks, but he didn't know if he read them.

Xiao Xiao said: "You and Shen Mi have gotten very close recently?"

"Just friends." Xiao Yi replied without raising his head.

"Then you said that you met her yesterday, and I heard from Beizi that you are going to help her move tomorrow?"

"Look at the time."

Xiao Xiao came over and handed him a cup of coffee: "Actually, what I mean is, Shen Mi is a nice girl. I have rarely seen you care so much about a girl."

"She's pretty funny." Xiao Yi turned a page of the book expressionlessly, but didn't read it at all.

"Just being funny? Nothing else?"

"No."

Shen Mi came out of the shower, turned on the TV, enjoyed the big sofa and home theater for the last night, played with her mobile phone on it, opened WeChat, and the contacts reminded her: "There are friends in the phone's address book, Xiao Yi."

Shen Mi sent a friend request.

Xiao Yi agreed.

Shen Mi was a little excited and sent a voice over.

"Comrade Lei Feng, do you have time tomorrow? Can you help me move?"

Xiao Yi clicked on the voice, and as soon as the voice was released, Xiao Xiao heard it too, pricked up his ears like a spy, and sneered a few times with the face of a successful concubine in a Gongdou drama: "Hehe! Did you still say?"

Xiao Yi glanced at her lightly, pressed the voice with his white thumb, and said, "Lei Feng has to go to work tomorrow."

Shen Mi heard his cold voice, grabbed the pillow, and lied powerlessly on the sofa like a robot with no battery.

"Oh! My heart hurts!"

Moving from a high-end apartment to the sunset red community known as a community for the elderly, the moving workers looked at Shen Mi with scrutiny.

Except for a frying pan and a large spoon, she has nothing big, because those things were confiscated by the government when her father was in prison.

Yang Yuxi took a leave of absence from the bank, and came to Xiyanghong Community with a new Hermes in her hand. The two girls sent away the workers of the moving company to clean the house together.

The location of this community is good. There is a TV station nearby, and there is a business district nearby. Supermarkets and shopping centers are just a few steps away. Life and transportation are very convenient. There is one bedroom, one living room and one bathroom. The decoration is old but well maintained, except for the washing machine. , electrical appliances are not lacking.

Yang Yuxi helped her sweep the floor, Shen Mi stuffed clothes into the closet, Yang Yuxi moved a stool to step on it after finishing sweeping the floor, and stuffed her shoe box into the highest closet.

Yang Yuxi ascended to tidy up the closet, Shen Mi came over and hugged her thigh and rubbed it.

"Xixi, you are so powerful, you are as strong as a man, and you help me tidy up the house in a few strokes. Please hug my thigh!"

Yang Yuxi smiled: "This leg is numb, why don't you give me a hammer?"

"Your servant obeys!" Shen Mi beat Yang Yuxi's leg like a little maid. After beating for a while, she hugged her again, rubbing and rubbing.

Yang Yuxi tiptoed to put things in order, patted the ashes on her hands, looked down at the lazy man, and said, "You, how can you survive alone? Hurry up and find someone."

Shen Mi hugged her thigh tightly: "I don't, I'll just play with you."

Yang Yuxi got off the stool, wiped off her sweat, pinched her face with dusty hands, and smiled all over her face: "Then you make me a honey sauce and I'll play with you, okay? By the way, I I want to eat spicy silkworm chrysalis more!"

"Is this a problem?" Shen Mi turned and went into the kitchen with her dirty face, and put on her apron. In fact, she had already bought her favorite ingredients before Yang Yuxi came.

Yang Yuxi asked at the kitchen door: "Hey, let me ask you, what's your relationship with that Xiao Yi? How did you get an appointment?"

Shen Mi turned on the faucet: "It's because old classmates met and helped each other!"

"Mimi, let me remind you, this Xiao Yi doesn't have a serious job right now, and he's also a naughty guy. Don't be like a young girl who is a nymphomaniac. The handsome guy is just for looking, it's not practical."

Shen Mi asked back: "Oh, then the one who gave you Hermes is practical?"

"You mean Beizi?"

"Yeah, I told you 180 times, he is unreliable."

Yang Yuxi said: "All right, all right, I know, it's okay if I don't associate with him less! But who won't take advantage of it? How about my bag?"

Shen Mi curled her lips and said, "If you get tired of using it, you can give it to me to set up a stall."

"Cut! You're just jealous! Hmph!"

"Do you want to eat ribs?"

"Think about it!"

After moving to a new home for two weeks, it was really inconvenient to not have a washing machine, so Shen Mi went to a nearby shopping mall.

She doesn't have a lot of money, and her limited life experience makes her not even know how much a washing machine sells for. The salesmen in the Electric City are very enthusiastic when they see her dress and attitude, and they keep selling her. The most expensive and the newest variety, Shen Mi's heart pounded when she heard it, and her palms were wet holding the brand-name bag.

After much deliberation, she decided to take a look at domestic brands. Although she felt that the brand was like a cheap non-brand mobile phone on the market, she had never heard of it, but the price was still in line with her current economic situation.

Shen Mi went to a domestic brand washing machine store called VOG, but there was not a single salesperson. Shen Mi looked around casually and found that the price of the washing machine was indeed much cheaper.

"Is anyone there? Is there a discount for this one?" Shen Mi shouted towards the warehouse in the specialty store.

Not long after, a nodding and bowing man came out, and then a group of people came out. They were wearing sales suits, surrounded by a man about 1.8 meters high. Second-generation ancestor.

Regardless of whether he is the boss or the second generation ancestor, Shen Mi said to the salesmen with dissatisfaction: "Are you still selling the goods? I have been waiting here for a long time and there is not a single salesman."

The second generation ancestor looked at her, stared blankly, and called out her name: "Shen Mi?"

Shen Mizai looked at the person in front of him carefully, feeling familiar, but he was sure that he didn't know him: "You know me?"

The Second Generation Ancestor smiled, showing his white teeth: "I saw you for the second time this month. Is this a kind of fate?"

Shen Mi looked at his pair of peach-blossom eyes with stories, and remembered for a long time before suddenly remembering where she had seen him before!

KTV!She was tricked by Xu Bingbing that day, and she went to KTV to deliver spicy lotus root slices, and she met this man.

It turned out to be Xu Bingbing's friend.

Shen Mi said coldly, "I don't remember knowing you."

The second generation ancestor was not angry and asked, "Are you here to buy a washing machine?"

"It's just for shopping. I'm not interested in domestic brands like yours that don't take customers seriously." After Shen Mi finished speaking, she turned around and left, but she heard the person behind her say: "Your mouth is still like that." poison."

Shen Mi felt baffled and ignored him.

Turning around, they were all too expensive, Shen Mi only had less than 600 yuan left on her body, and she didn't want to touch the money in Xiao Yi's card, so she decided to wait a little longer, went down the stairs along the escalator, and was about to leave the gate of the shopping mall. A salesman stopped her.

"Ms. Hello, I am a salesperson of the VOG brand. Today is the fourth anniversary of our product launch. You are the 40th customer who came to our store. Therefore, according to the promotion rules, we can give you a [-]% discount. Are you interested? Buy our new fully automatic washing machine?"

"[-]% off?" Shen Mi took the flyer from the salesperson's hand dully, and after a look, there was indeed such a promotion, "How much?"

"The original price was more than 1000, but now it only costs [-]."

"three hundred!"

"Leave your contact information, we will deliver to your door!"

Shen Mi didn't believe in the good news of the pie falling from the sky, but she never expected that a new fully automatic washing machine would be delivered to her home that afternoon.

Of course Shen Mi was happy, and cooperated with the brand seller to fill in the personal information, and also scanned the public account with the official WeChat.

Shen Mi didn't know much about this brand, so she opened the official WeChat homepage to check.Under the company profile, Shen Mi saw the photo of the second-generation ancestor she saw in the mall today.

The pose for taking pictures is that of a young entrepreneur, with suits and leather shoes, slightly sideways, hands crossed and arms folded, and a pair of peach blossom eyes revealing youthful vigor.

There is a signature next to the photo, and a line of introduction: Nie Yongheng, the founder of VOG Group.

"Nie Yongheng..." Shen Mi repeated the name in her mouth, as if she was looking for the remnant familiar taste in a piece of tasteless chewing gum.

It is impossible for her to forget such a special name.

Nie Yongheng...

Just as she was recalling carefully, a text message from a stranger came over——

from unknown number:

Is my washing machine easy to use?

Shen Mi couldn't help shivering, where did I hear this sentence?
"My name is Nie Yongheng, the eternal eternal, majoring in advertising design."

One winter morning in freshman year, "Happy birthday" was played on the campus radio, and Nie Yongheng stood in front of Shen Mi holding a gorgeous big cake, talking with white steam.

"Shen Mi, I wish you a happy birthday. I hope I am the first person to wish you a happy birthday today."

Shen Mi was wearing a coat, pajamas and plush slippers, her fair face not only showed no surprise, but felt a little more helpless.

She stood at the door of the dormitory, hugged her shoulders, looked seriously at the fat man who was wearing the biggest jeans in front of her, and said, "Nie Yongheng, right? I've heard of you, do you like me?"

Nie Yongheng didn't expect her to be so calm and direct, her fat face was flushed, she lowered her head and said nothing.

Shen Mi listened to the happy birthday song on the radio and said: "I don't know what relationship you used to make the campus radio play the song for me early in the morning, but it's your fault that you woke up the whole school to pick up girls. gone."

Nie Yongheng hesitated and said: "I, I just think you are like a princess, I want to treat you in the most romantic way, I don't think so much..."

Shen Mi said: "Okay, then I'll tell you, I, Shen Mi, don't make blue-faced confidants and don't play spare tires, so I think we don't even want to be friends anymore. I'm sorry, I don't have feelings for you. You can go back."

the second time.

In the first semester of freshman year, the school bought a batch of second-hand washing machines at a low price. When the washing machines were installed in the water room of each floor of the female dormitory, the girls in the whole building were boiling, because every broken washing machine was printed with " Shen Mi is the most beautiful" five small characters.

Later, Shen Mi heard that Nie Yongheng's family recycles second-hand washing machines.

Shen Mi took a good little sister in the dormitory to find Nie Yongheng.

"Nie Yongheng, I am troubled by your behavior." Shen Mi said.

Shen Mi's roommate said: "That's right, Nie Yongheng, you can't be a rich second generation just by doing a small business. The rich second generation is worth hundreds of millions of dollars. Your family can be regarded as a rich second generation. If you can compete with Mimi's family than?"

Nie Yongheng's fat face wrinkled, he lowered his head, and stopped talking.After a long time, he asked, "Is our washing machine easy to use?"

Shen Mi burst out laughing: "Nie Yongheng, I really can't do anything about you. Let me put it up front, I really don't like you, let's put it this way, I don't like fat people."

The roommate laughed loudly, Nie Yongheng's face turned pale all of a sudden, and he stared at her blankly.

Later, the news about the washing machine spread to another male classmate who liked Shen Mi. That boy was also a man of influence. During physical education class, he brought a group of classmates to "talk" to Nie Yongheng. He didn't know what he said. After that, Nie Yongheng dropped out of school.

Some people said that he went back to school, while others said that he gave up his studies and went into business.

Holding the phone, Shen Mi stared at the familiar question on the screen, and then looked at the photo on the Wechat official homepage. She couldn't believe that he was the [-]-pound fat man back then.

She didn't intend to reply to his message.

When she was a student, she just felt that the best way to repay the love of the suitor she didn't like was to treat the suitor she didn't like, but the other party didn't think it was for his own good.

So, Feng Shui took turns, and she had another person who saw her jokes.

Shen Mi deleted the text message, opened WeChat again, and stared at Xiao Yi's profile picture in a daze.

At this time, Zhou Xinyuan's WeChat suddenly jumped out, blocking Xiao Yi's dialog box:
"Miss Shen, I have dinner at my house this weekend, is it convenient for you to come to work?"

This Nie Yongheng didn't reply to the text message, but found her WeChat through her mobile phone number, and asked to add her as a friend.

Shen Mi ignored him and started preparing to have a private banquet at Miss Zhou's house.

Given her current situation, facing a part-time job offer of 500 yuan for a meal, she couldn't refuse both emotionally and rationally.

Why refuse?Just because this private banquet with foie gras jelly on the menu was probably prepared by Zhou Xinyuan for Xiao Yi?

To be honest, Miss Zhou and Xiao Yi are really a good match.

In the blink of an eye, it was the weekend again, and Shen Mi was still alone at home, making a simple meal for herself and preparing to go out.

"Nie Yongheng requests to add you as a friend."

Refuse.

"Nie Yongheng requests to add you as a friend. Verification message: little princess?"

Refuse.

"Nie Yongheng requests to add you as a friend. Verify the message: If you refuse again, I will drive downstairs to your house."

Shen Mi frowned, and immediately agreed to his friend request, and then sent a voice angrily: "Nie Yongheng, what are you talking about?"

A weeping emoji soon came from the other end of WeChat: "I was scolded by the princess again, but it still feels familiar and smells familiar."

"Crazy! Perverted!" Shen Mi didn't want to talk to him at all.

Nie Yongheng sent another voice: "Okay, I won't mess with you anymore, are you at home alone? Didn't you go out to play on weekends?"

Shen Mi still ignored him.

"I don't mean anything else. We're all old classmates. We're not so stiff that we can't even say a word, right? How did I offend you like this?"

Shen Mi couldn't help but replied: "Nie Yongheng, are you with Xu Bingbing? Did you form a group to see my jokes? If you pester me again, I'll charge tickets?"

Nie Yongheng's voice in the voice is very magnetic: "I don't think there are any jokes on you, but you are really good-looking. By the way, how much is the ticket?"

His voice was very clear, although his words were ambiguous, they were spoken normally by him, on the contrary, it seemed that Shen Mi was getting angry at others for no reason.

Shen Mi found that she had become extremely sensitive now.

Afraid that friends will rush to pay for the meal.

I am afraid that the salesperson will praise her for her beautiful shoes.

I'm afraid that people I haven't seen for a long time will ask her where she works.

I feel like the whole world is watching her liveliness.

She sighed helplessly, and replied super fast: "Okay, I won't tell you anymore, are you fine? I'm fine, are you all fine? That's fine, that's it for now, keep in touch .”

After logging out of WeChat, Shen Mi was watching "Happy Camp" by herself on the sofa with egg fried rice.

Nie Yongheng didn't reply anymore.

The next day was Sunday, Shen Mi woke up naturally after sleeping, played mobile games on the bed, watched a popular costume drama, and it was afternoon before she knew it.

The lunch alone was easy to pass, and at about four o'clock, she stepped out in high heels.

Zhou Xinyuan's family lived in a high-end residential area, and she had to walk a long way to get there after getting off the bus. As soon as she entered Zhou's house, Shen Mi smelled a scent of lavender perfume. The flower language of lavender is - waiting for love.

"Come here? Ms. Shen, please come in. I bought all the dishes, and I'm just waiting for you to come." Zhou Xinyuan's voice was always so gentle, which matched her good upbringing very well.

"Hello, Miss Zhou." Shen Mi took off her high heels, put them on the shoe rack neatly, and put on the slippers she handed over.

"Miss Shen didn't even take her bag?" Zhou Xinyuan asked, looking at a key ring on her finger.

"Yes, anyway, it's just a mobile phone and a bunch of keys, just hold it with your hands."

Zhou Xinyuan's eyes stayed on her key chain, and said, "It's such a beautiful crystal key chain, can you show me?"

"Of course." Shen Mi handed her the key, and went into the kitchen to get busy.

Zhou Xinyuan admired the crystal pendant on her key and said, "It's so beautiful. My friend also has a crystal brooch of the same style, which is also in the style of a ballet girl."

Shen Mi was stunned for a moment, the friend she mentioned was Xiao Xiao?The crystal brooch Shen Mi gave to Xiao Xiao is a set with this key chain.

Shen Mi smiled without saying a word.

While talking, Xiao Xiao came with her son Vogt, and Xiao Yi who came with a gift.

Standing busy in the kitchen, Shen Mi heard Zhou Xinyuan complaining to Xiao Yi: "Why do you have to buy so many things every time you come here? Dad's health care products can't be eaten up. What are you spending all this money for? I'm going to get angry if you're so polite." .”

Xiao Yi lowered his head and took off his shoes and didn't speak. It seemed that nothing changed because of her complaints, but Xiao Xiao mischievously imitated Zhou Xinyuan's tone like a little girl, sticking out her tongue: "I'm going to be angry if I do this again!"

Zhou Xinyuan pinched her face: "When a mother is already like a child!"

Shen Mi's side has already started to stir up trouble.

Xiao Xiao smiled and said, "Okay, okay, you are mature, you are only 26 years old and you are like a housewife all day long."

Xiao Xiao joked because she was familiar with Zhou Xinyuan, unexpectedly Zhou Xinyuan's smile faded, his face turned red and then pale, and he glanced hastily at Xiao Yi.

Vogt's little nose twitched, and suddenly let go of his mother's hand, and ran to the kitchen like a greedy cat.

"Your cooking is delicious, and I have their appetite, and I want to eat what you have to do with rice." Vogt said standing at the kitchen door.

While stirring, Shen Mi said to him: "Sorry, I haven't passed level [-], Can you speak Chinese?"

Vogt put his hand to his lips and said anxiously, "I mean, I'm hungry for anything delicious you're doing."

Shen Mi imitated the foreigner's tone of voice: "Pot-bread-meat, Do you like it?"

Vogt nodded vigorously: "Are you going to feed me?"

Shen Mi withdrew her gaze: "Oh, NO, you think too much, cute little curly."

"Vogt." Xiao Yi's voice came, and he gradually approached. When he walked to the kitchen, he saw Shen Mi who was wearing an apron, and was obviously taken aback.

"Hi." Shen Mi took the time to glance at him, greeted him and returned to frying and frying.

"Are you here to work part-time again?" Xiao Yi asked.

"Well," Shen Mi didn't look at him, she was still busy, "I just bought a washing machine of a small brand, I don't like it very much, I plan to go back and buy a better one, and then I'll go out to work."

Although she didn't look at him, she felt that Xiao Yi had been examining herself.

Shen Mi neatly coated the pot-packed meat with a layer of lovely and tempting paste, then took out a piece and placed it in the center of the plate, like treating a very hungry kitten, without raising her eyes. The plate pushed: "Little curly hair, help me to see if the meat is cooked."

Vogt seemed to have received a great gift, and immediately picked up the plate and blew on the pot of meat, and took a piece with his hand and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Oh!" Vogt couldn't help but admire after biting half of it, "Yummy!"

Xiao Yi was skeptical, reached out and grabbed the remaining half of Vogt's hand, and threw it into his mouth. The crispy, sour and sweet taste instantly filled his whole taste buds, and his expression relaxed: "It's really good."

"Oh! Uncle! You can't do this to me!"

Xiao Yi sucked his fingers, and ruthlessly rubbed Vogt's curly hair: "Ask her for it." After leaving a word, he left the kitchen.

If it wasn't for this gluttonous little curly hair making trouble, Shen Mi might be able to prepare the dishes faster.

A table of dishes is served, and the aroma of the dishes overwhelms the scent of lavender.

Sliced ​​lotus root in scallion oil, Beaulieu eggplant, soft fried chicken with lemon juice, pineapple short ribs, almond foie gras jelly, deviled eggs, and Suber soup.

Vogt was sitting on the table with dignity, wearing a napkin, but his eyes were already on the plate.

"You did all of these?" Xiao Xiao asked in surprise.

Zhou Xinyuan stood up politely, took the last plate from Shen Mi's hand, and said with a smile: "Yes, Ms. Shen's craftsmanship is really good, it's a taste I can't taste in any restaurant."

Xiao Yi rested his elbows on the table, looking at Shen Mi without hesitation.

Xiao Xiao gave a thumbs up: "Shen Mi, I never thought you could cook."

Zhou Xinyuan was surprised for a while: "Why, you know each other?"

Xiao Xiao said, "Yes, she is my brother's classmate."

Xiao Yi picked up the chopsticks and nodded.

Zhou Xinyuan suddenly realized: "No wonder, that brooch of yours was given by Miss Shen?"

"Yes, she gave it to me."

"Oh, I remembered, Xiao Xiao, I seem to have heard you mention Miss Shen."

Shen Mi took off her apron, and saw Zhou Xinyuan was looking at Xiao Yi scrutinizingly. Although Zhou Xinyuan wanted to cover up the suspicion in his eyes, this short silence still showed the existence of embarrassment.

Xiao Xiao is as close as Zhou Xinyuan, what else can you say about Shen Mi?The only interesting thing about chasing after Xiao Yi when I was in school.

In this way, when Zhou Xinyuan came here to cook for the first time, Zhou Xinyuan poured out his love for Xiao Yi enthusiastically, it seems that Shen Mi listened to it.

In fact, the matter between her and Xiao Yi couldn't get on the stage at all.

Shen Mi smiled cheerfully and said: "You guys eat, have a good weekend, I have something to say, so I will leave."

Zhou Xinyuan stood up and said kindly: "Miss Shen, since we are all friends, let's sit down and have something to eat together!"

Chinese people like to leave others to eat in their own home, this is a very common thing.But Shen Mi looked at Xiao Yi, and then at Zhou Xinyuan, always felt that this was not good.

"No, I still have an appointment." Shen Mi made up a reason casually.

"With whom?" Xiao Yi, who had been silent all this time, had already moved his chopsticks, asking seemingly casually.

He seemed to have a particularly deep memory of her phrase "I don't have any friends".

Shen Mi didn't know why, but suddenly her heart throbbed slightly, and the roots of her ears suddenly became hot.It was at this time that the phone rang. She clicked on it, and it was the voice from Nie Yongheng. The voice was like a savior, and Shen Mi clicked on it without thinking.

Nie Yongheng's pleasant voice came out: "Are you still at home alone? Come out to get together? How about singing? There is no Xu Bingbing."

Shen Mi faced the phone in front of Xiao Yi and Zhou Xinyuan and said, "Ah, yes, I'm coming out right now! See you later!"

Shen Mi put down her phone, smiled smirkly, and said to everyone: "My friends have made an appointment with me to hang out, so I really can't stay longer."

Xiao Yi ate the food without raising his head: "Well, be careful on the road."

Zhou Xinyuan seemed to have a trace of regret: "Okay, Miss Shen, let's have dinner together when we have time."

"Bye bye Mimi! Vogt sees Auntie bye."

Shen Mi smiled like a silly elder sister and went out the door amidst the bustle. As soon as the door closed, she rubbed her cheeks sore from laughing, let out a long breath, and went downstairs.

Zhou Xinyuan went to the kitchen to get soup, Xiao Xiao leaned in front of Xiao Yi, and said, "See, you are a single public nuisance!"

Xiao Yi put Vogt on his long legs, taught him how to play Rubik's Cube, and said with a flat expression: "I didn't do anything."

Xiao Xiao said, "Hurry up and find someone!"

Xiao Yi's slender fingers quickly twisted on the Rubik's Cube, performing for Vogt like a magician. As he spoke, the Rubik's Cube was already red, red, yellow, and yellow.

Vogt stared at his hand dumbfounded, unable to believe that it was done by his uncle who fell asleep within 5 minutes of reciting.

Xiao Xiao lowered her voice and said, "You rejected Miss Xin Yuan, so do you like Shen Mi?"

Xiao Yi quickly scrambled the Rubik's Cube that he had put together, stuffed it back into his nephew's hand, and looked at her impatiently.

Xiao Xiao said: "I asked you several times, but you didn't answer me directly. I think there is a problem."

"..."

"Brother, do you like it or not?"

"Don't always ask me if I like it, if I like it, I will chase after it."

Zhou Xinyuan came out of the kitchen, she looked gentle and virtuous in the solid color turtleneck sweater.

Xiao Yi said: "Xin Yuan, don't be so busy, sit down and eat."

Zhou Xinyuan smiled warmly: "Miss Shen said that this soup needs to be stewed for a while."

Xiao Xiao shook her head and sighed: "Oh! Sister Xin Yuan, if I were a man, I would marry you. Alas!"

Zhou Xinyuan glanced at Xiao Yi who was drinking soup, and said, "Let me dry it for you? Is it not hot? Eh? Why is Ms. Shen's key on the table? She forgot to take it?"

The three of them looked at the table and saw a new key with a crystal keychain on it.

It took Shen Mi 15 minutes to walk out of the community from Zhou Xinyuan's house. The asphalt road in the community was a long slope. She wore stiletto high heels and walked very hard.

I was a little hungry, so I bought a piece of expensive cake in a small supermarket, and she delivered it to her mouth as she walked.

In the past, Shen Mi would never have eaten this kind of packaged food with preservatives, let alone eat while walking on the street, but she was really hungry, even though she had cooked so many delicacies in the kitchen just now, she couldn’t even take a bite. Did not dare to steal.

After eating the cake, Shen Mi took out her mobile phone, and was about to send Nie Yongheng a WeChat message to tell her that she couldn't go. Just as she was trying to figure out the reason, his call came. Shen Mi hesitated for a moment, but she still picked it up.

"Hi." He greeted briskly.

"I want to tell you..."

"Everyone is here, and you are the only one missing."

"Have you already called everyone?"

The voice of Nie Yongheng on the phone is not as frivolous as in WeChat, it may be due to the bass, it sounds very serious: "I am happy to meet my old classmates."

He made friends for her, which Shen Mi couldn't refuse.

What's more, what are you doing at home alone now?It's nothing more than submitting resumes on the phone or watching dramas in bed.

What Xiao Yi said was wrong, loneliness is not more interesting than being alone, loneliness is the most terrifying.

"Then come out, where are you?" Shen Mi asked.

Xiao Xiao and Xiao Yi went home directly after eating at Zhou Xinyuan's house.

Xiao Xiao was changing the quilt in her small room, but her son got into the quilt and refused to come out, Xiao Xiao simply pulled the zipper, locked her son in the quilt, and taught him a lesson.

Coming out of the bedroom, she saw Xiao Yi who was sleeping on the table and immediately sat up, pretending to be reciting a book.

Xiao Xiao shook her head, sighed worriedly, and asked, "Where's your high-end computer case?"

"sold."

"It was more than 1 when you bought it, how much did you sell?"

"Five thousand."

Xiao Xiao frowned, and said while sweeping the floor: "Brother, are you short of money?"

"No shortage. I'm saving money."

"Yo, who are you saving for? For my Vogt?" Xiao Xiao asked.

Xiao Yi was spinning the pen in one hand, resting his forehead with the other, the warm yellow of the desk lamp hit his face, and the tip of the pen made a rustling sound on the notebook: "A girl."

Xiao Xiao's eyes lit up: "You want to save money to marry a wife?"

Covered in a white quilt, Vogt climbed out of the bed and crawled all the way from the bedroom to the living room, like a ball of moving dough, he found his uncle's voice and crawled to his legs.

Xiao Yi smiled and kicked the little guy lightly with his big feet in socks.

The naughty Vogt lay on the ground and rolled.

"No, I owe Shen Mi money."

Xiao Xiao looked at her brother in a daze.

Xiao Xiao remembered that the last time Xiao Yi saved money so desperately was for her.At that time he was in college and Xiao Xiao was studying abroad.

Later, Xiao Xiao heard Xiao Yi's roommate Mao Feng talk about Xiao Yi's feat of saving money.

"Everyone in our dormitory smokes except for Chi Mu. The three of us smokers start smoking when we run out of food expenses at the end of the month. The fourth Xiao Yi plays tricks on us. When I saw him take out a pack of cigarettes, Ask, is there any more, give me one? He pulled out a mouthpiece and said, no more, and then threw the cigarette case into the trash can with a 'shua'. Later, every time I saw him take the cigarette case, I asked He, he said it was gone, and threw it in the trash can. We felt that something was wrong. Once, he threw away the cigarette case and went out. The few of us took out the cigarette case from the trash can, and there were two cigarettes in it! Then go to his pillow, it's full of smoke! We all say that a man who is stingy to this level must have a woman behind him!
"He never ordered a set of 800 yuan textbooks for our major. He got close to the eldest sister of the photocopying agency and borrowed our textbooks to print. Ten copies cost less than 100 yuan. In the end, the entire medical school lost money. do it.

"At that time, Xiao Yi asked a girl to get him a fake student ID, pretending to be a student majoring in broadcasting and hosting. Students who went to the media school's teaching and art exam class gave him [-] per class. Those students liked him very much. The principal was not here. Xiao Yi just told them jokes. He was also named the most popular male teacher in the make-up class, earning a lot of money."

Everyone said that Xiao Yi "knows how", "stingy" and "can grab money", but only Xiao Xiao knew that when she was studying in the United States, she could receive money from her brother every month.

Only one month, he didn't send any money, so he called and told Xiao Xiao: "My brother was hospitalized with gastroenteritis this month, and he spent a sum of money, so I can't send you any money. I will make up for you next month. You can ask your classmates to borrow money first." Let me borrow it." After he finished speaking, he seemed to be afraid that she would worry, and added hastily, "The doctor said that I can't let me eat too greasy in the future, and I will easily have diarrhea."

Xiao Xiao was young at the time, so she didn't feel sorry for others at all, and even joked with him: "Brother, stop pretending, is it embarrassing to tell me about hemorrhoid surgery?"

Xiao Yi pretended to reprimand her severely: "You child, you have been spoiled by American imperialism."

"Money owed to Shen Mi? How much do you owe her?" Xiao Xiao asked.

"It's still a hundred thousand."

Shen Mi got off the bus, sneezed, didn't see her feet clearly for a while, and when she took a step, the heel of her high-heeled shoes stepped into the manhole cover of the sewer and was caught.

Shen Mi took off her shoes and squatted down to pull them out, but she couldn't pull them out no matter what.A woman collecting rags happened to pass by, stopped her tricycle, squatted down silently, and with a little effort, she pulled out her high heels.

"Thank you." Shen Mi said gratefully.

"It's nothing, don't wear such thin shoes next time, how tired you are." The woman rode away in disgrace.

When Shen Mi put on her shoes again, she felt that the heels had become loose, and she walked unsteadily, as if she might fall off at any time. Fortunately, there was the KTV in front of her, and she walked over carefully.

Shen Mi thought that Nie Yongheng was in the private room, but she didn't expect him to be standing at the door.He was looking at his mobile phone with his head down. It was already dark, and the light from the mobile phone shone on his face, making him look quite handsome.

"I'm here." Shen Mi walked in front of him and stood still.

Nie Yongheng briefly raised his head, glanced at her inadvertently, probably mistaking her for someone else, then lowered his head and waved at her, signaling her to go in by herself.

Shen Mi was taken aback, she opened the door of KTV and was about to enter, but the man behind her reacted immediately and stepped up quickly.

"It's you?" A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

"It's me." Shen Mi didn't know where his surprise was.

Nie Yongheng showed a relaxed smile, and opened the door for her gentlemanly: "Then go in!"

The private room is luxurious as expected. Ten of Nie Yongheng's friends came, four men and six women, all of whom were very enthusiastic, and none of them were annoying. When Nie Yongheng introduced Shen Mi to everyone, he also said that The identity of an old classmate.

When you arrive at KTV, you must order songs. Men and women take turns singing, and the atmosphere is very lively.Shen Mi and Nie Yongheng sat in the corner of the sofa, especially tacitly clapping their hands to beat the singer.

A boy who looked two years younger than them walked over, sat next to Shen Mi, and said to Nie Yongheng over Shen Mi: "Brother Nie, how about some wine?"

Nie Yongheng smiled and waved him off: "Nothing, nothing."

"Don't you drink beauties?" the boy asked kindly.

Shen Mi said: "I have no objection, but I don't drink alcohol. You can do whatever you want."

Nie Yongheng said: "Don't drink it, it will make a mess of smoke, and she will smell of alcohol all over."

The boy left obediently and went to sing.

Shen Mi asked him: "You come to KTV to clap your hands? Don't you sing?"

Nie Yongheng was stunned: "Sing!" Then he said to his friend next to the karaoke machine, "Order "Back to Lhasa" for me!"

As soon as Nie Yongheng was going to sing, the person who ordered the song immediately gave priority to his song. As soon as the person in front finished singing, everyone looked at him and applauded.

Shen Mixin said, this Nie Yongheng is very popular.

"Back to Lhasa - back to Napotala -"

Zheng Jun's song still needs to be yelled twice, Nie Yongheng has mastered the mood and tone very well, Shen Mi secretly thought that it must be the reason why he had gained weight before, so his voice was extraordinarily deep, and he felt quite good when he sang Zheng Jun's song of.She clapped the time expressionlessly, and to be honest she really didn't know what to do except to keep the time.

When singing, Nie Yongheng sat on the stage like a resident singer in a bar.But as soon as the music stopped, he was completely different from what he was just now, showing a shy smile amidst the applause of the crowd.

"Brother Nie! I ordered "Love Master" for you and Shen Mi!" The friend sitting in front of the karaoke machine shouted with a smile.

Without doubt, there was another burst of applause.

Shen Mi suspected that these friends were hired by Nie Yongheng with money, and they could be the audience of "I Am a Singer".

Nie Yongheng came down from the stage with the prelude and handed Shen Mi a microphone.Shen Mi is not a spoiler, she stood up generously.

The height of the two of them quite matched. Standing together, Nie Yongheng smiled along with the cheerful music.

Shen Mi: "I'll give you 1 minute. If you're not tempted, you're useless. No matter how cool you are, it's useless."

Nie Yongheng: "Baby, you don't understand, I just want you to be impatient, I am invincible in love, but I am at the level of a master, come on!"

Luo Zhixiang's evil face appeared on the screen, Shen Mi turned her head to look over, and found that Nie Yongheng also had that kind of smile on his face.

Shen Mi suddenly felt very disgusted, and she didn't know why.

Could it be because of this: If you think a person of the opposite sex is interested in you, but you are not interested in him, so when he flirts with you a little bit, you will feel disgusted?
do not know.

Shen Mi couldn't figure it out, and finished singing absent-mindedly.

A group of people didn't leave until ten o'clock in the evening. Nie Yongheng naturally asked to drive her home. Shen Mi got in his L-plate car and played with her mobile phone with her head down. She wasn't enthusiastic or indifferent. They chatted without saying a word.

Turning on the phone, Shen Mi saw a red 1 next to Xiao Yi's profile picture, she was a little happy, and quickly opened it.

"Your key is with me, call me before you come to my house to pick it up."

Only then did Shen Mi realize that her key had been left at Zhou Xinyuan's house.

She immediately called Xiao Yi: "I'm Shen Mi."

"I saved your number, why are you so late?" Xiao Yi's voice on the other end of the phone was quiet.

Shen Mi felt that his questioning should be blaming herself for coming too late for disturbing his rest.

"Sorry, KTV is too noisy, I didn't see your WeChat message."

"Did someone take you back?" Xiao Yi asked.

"some."

"Then ask your friend to go downstairs and shake it with the car lights, and I'll go downstairs and send it to you."

"it is good."

Shen Mi hung up the phone and reported Xiao Yi's home address to Nie Yongheng.

Stopping at a red light, Nie Yongheng held the steering wheel and turned to look at her: "Boyfriend?"

Shen Mi shook her head: "No, go get a key."

Nie Yongheng raised his hand and touched the tip of his nose. When the green light came on, he stepped on the accelerator and said with a smile, "Come out to play more when you have time. My friends like you very much."

"Success, no problem." Shen Mi said lightly.

Xiao Yi is sitting at the desk by the window reading a book, Xiao Xiao and Vogt are already fast asleep.Except for the desk lamp that was still on, the room was completely dark.

A beam of light flashed outside the window, he stood up, opened the curtains and looked down, a luxury car was parked downstairs.

Xiao Yi put down the curtains, grabbed the keys on the table, put on his shoes and went downstairs.

After leaving the corridor, the car had already left. Shen Mi was standing there with one leg, holding a high-heeled shoe in her hand, pinching the heel with her hand. Seeing him coming down, she quickly put the shoe back on her foot.

"Where's your friend?" Xiao Yi handed her the key.

"I told him I was home, and he left." Shen Mi smiled with her eyes bent.

Xiao Yi raised his eyebrows, looked at the pointer on the watch: "Why didn't you let him take you home?"

"If you don't want to, you just don't want to. There are so many reasons."

Xiao Yi put his hands into his trouser pockets, stood at the door and looked at her for a few seconds.

"Then I'm leaving! Thank you." Shen Mi waved, and Xiao Yi also waved and turned around.

After walking a long way, Xiao Yi didn't say that he would see her off, so Shen Mi couldn't help curling her lips.

"It's not very gentlemanly."

She was complaining in her heart when the sound of an electric car came from behind her.

Although it is a silent electric car, the sound is very small, but it is very clear in this neighborhood near midnight.

Shen Mi's heart lit up, she turned around quickly, and saw Xiao Yi riding an electric scooter coming from behind, as soon as the bike stopped, Xiao Yi's long legs were on the ground.

"Is this your car?" Shen Mi asked with a smile, standing very reservedly.

"I bought it years ago, but I still don't need it." He tilted his head, "Get in the car, and I'll see you off."

Shen Mi's old problem repeated: "Are you sure you don't need to wear a helmet?"

Xiao Yi snorted: "Are you afraid of falling with your brain?"

"Hey! What do you mean my brain is afraid of falling?" Shen Mi muttered with a dark face, pulled off her high heels, and sat astride behind him, before he drove, she asked seriously, " Then I hugged your waist? You can't be uneasy because there is a big beautiful woman sitting behind you! I didn't wear a helmet."

Xiao Yi adjusted the rearview mirror on the handlebar, and said flatly, "It's not like I haven't touched women before."

Shen Mi was startled, and looked at him with a smirk.

Xiao Yi turned his head slightly and asked, "Why don't you hug me? I'm going to drive."

"Oh," Shen Mi put her arms around his waist, "the amount of information is too much."

How does it feel to hold Xiao Yi's waist?
This feeling is like nestling in a southern dormitory in winter, holding a big hot water bottle in my arms, stepping on one on my feet, and covering my body with a velvet quilt.

This feeling is called contentment.

This feeling is the intensive heartbeat that Nie Yongheng never gave her after taking care of her all night.

In order to prevent Xiao Yi from discovering her heartbeat, Shen Mi moved her body backwards.

The trees, shops, and pedestrians on both sides all turned into a colorful thick line, whizzing past her peripheral vision, Shen Mi's bangs were blown by the night wind that passed over Xiao Yi's shoulders, the wind was soft Yes, with the lemon-scented laundry detergent on his shirt.

"I ran into a college classmate today." Shen Mi said.

"Driving a luxury car?"

"Well, he used to be very fat and chased me. I was young and my words were not pleasant, so I rejected him. Now that I think about it, I really shouldn't. I met him the other day when I was buying a washing machine. He was actually the owner of that brand. Turned into a handsome guy, I almost didn't recognize him."

A car passed by them, bringing up a gust of wind, Shen Mi tightened her arms a little, and chatted with him.

"He wants to chase you again?" Xiao Yi looked ahead and asked against the wind.

"No, they didn't say they were chasing me. I don't believe that the domineering president fell in love with me. But it's too dramatic for him to become handsome. If I go to write a novel tomorrow, maybe there will be Make money. It's a pity that my Chinese is too bad."

"How are you?" Xiao Yi asked.

"The personality looks pretty good, the appearance is also above average in height, and the temperament is generous, but I don't like the style of dressing very much."

"why?"

"The belt from the H family, the shirt from the V brand, and the pants are too tight."

Xiao Yi couldn't help laughing: "I remember someone told me that the reason for breaking up in college was that they hated the smell of cigarettes in their mouths when they kissed, and now they say they don't like it because their pants are tight. Are you Virgo?"

Shen Mi panicked suddenly, and pinched his waist: "You are only a Virgo! Your whole family is a Virgo!"

"No? I guessed."

"Well I am."

"..."

"What's wrong with Virgo? Although I have a bad background, I have also actively reformed with the harmonious socialist society and worked hard to blend in with the people!"

"Then you are still so picky?"

"Not picky."

"Which other half is perfect?"

"Anyway, you don't understand. If you don't like it, you don't like it. I don't like him even if his pants are loose!"

"If so what do you like?"

"You don't care about me!"

Xiao Yi turned the electric car around, and Shen Mi subconsciously hugged his waist tightly, pursing her lips.

"God is really unfair. A person like you should have a sister who urges you to fall in love all day long."

"Xiao Yi, stop talking, let's get angry."

When the community arrived, Xiao Yi parked his electric car at the door, and looked up at the rusty iron plaque - "Sunset Red Community for the Elderly".

There is still a distance from the gate of the community to Shen Mi's building, there is a dark turn, Shen Mi is afraid, and begs: "The road is quite dark, why don't you show off your style and send me downstairs?"

"En." Xiao Yi walked behind her.

Xiao Yi's shadow was elongated by the street lamps, and just shrouded Shen Mi's body.

"Xiao Yi, you'd better walk by my side. This way I'm even more scared, as if there's a follower behind me."

With a cigarette in one hand, Xiao Yi waved it in the air: "I'll smoke a cigarette."

"Why do you smoke and walk behind?"

"Didn't you say you hate the smell of cigarettes?"

Shen Mi was startled, and stopped, just walking side by side with Xiao Yi who was behind her: "I mean, I hate the smell of cigarettes when kissing."

She said the word "kiss" especially emphatically, and laughed loudly.He glanced at her, then looked away, Shen Mi couldn't laugh anymore.

She watched Xiao Yi holding a cigarette, and occasionally took a puff. The smoke kept exhaling from his mouth under the moonlight. Shen Mi's gaze stayed on his lips for a moment, and her heart suddenly stopped beating.

She hurriedly clutched her chest, like a guilty conscience, she looked away, with erratic eyes, looking at her own shadow in the moonlight.

Because she said a sensitive word, the two of them seemed a little awkward, or rather, a little ambiguous.

Shen Mi lives on the sixth floor, the top floor of this old building.

Shen Mi struggled in her heart, should he let him send her up?Several voice-activated lights in the corridor were broken, not only was it dark, but also had a musty smell, like a scene from a horror movie.

Shen Mi thought, it's better not to say this, it seems that she is pushing her boundaries and has other plans.

When they were about to go downstairs, Shen Mi eased the awkward atmosphere and said, "You are staying up so late, you must not be waiting for me, are you? What are you doing at home? Chasing dramas or playing games?"

"Review for postgraduate entrance examination." Xiao Yi replied.

Shen Mi nodded: "Very good. Now the higher the degree, the better. I graduated with three majors. I don't like studying. I really can't get into it. Otherwise, I will take the exam."

"To each other." Xiao Yi said.

The anti-theft door of the corridor was open, and it was pitch black inside.

"I'm going in, thank you!" She stood at the door, took out her phone and turned on the flashlight.

"You're welcome." Xiao Yi stood at the door with his head slightly lowered. He was so tall that his head almost touched the door frame.

Shen Mi turned around and went upstairs.

In the darkness, she walked to the second floor, and suddenly heard a loud noise, Shen Mi screamed "Aww", her already tense nerves almost broke!

Xiao Yi's deep voice came from downstairs: "I'll just stomp my feet."

Shen Mi was frightened and angry, leaning on the handrail of the stairs and poking her head down: "Xiao Yi! Why are you stamping your feet when you have nothing to do! You scared me to death!"

Xiao Yi raised his head: "I'll turn on the voice-activated lights for you!"

"The voice control light is broken!" Shen Mi said angrily.

She was scared to death.

She held on to the handrail and continued to go upstairs, as if there was some monster waiting for her upstairs. She was really notoriously timid and useless.

Xiao Yi's footsteps sounded from below, and when Shen Mi turned around, he had already strode up to catch up.

"Look at your potential, let's go."

He stood behind her, several flights of stairs lower than her, and his tone was disgusting, but Shen Mi was relieved.

It was really kind of him to walk her upstairs.

Although she was happy in her heart, Shen Mi still muttered stubbornly, and walked upstairs step by step: "I don't need you to send me, I'm not afraid."

Xiao Yi had good eyes, and sneered: "The shoes are crooked, and he said he's not afraid."

"Is there?" Shen Mi subconsciously lowered her head to look at her high-heeled shoes, and with such a turning movement, the heel of the already broken shoe suddenly snapped off!
"what--"

She screamed, only to feel that her feet were empty, and when she twisted her body, she fell back completely uncontrollably!Just when she thought she was going to fall badly, Xiao Yi stretched out his hand and pulled her into his arms, then pushed her knees against the wall, and pressed her body against the wall!
He should be eager to save her, so he used his whole body to hold her down.

The two bodies were close to each other, their eyes facing each other.

In the darkness, she was panting heavily in shock, her chest rising and falling.

His breath rushed over, and the sound of his heartbeat filled the entire corridor, with a faint smell of tobacco.

She always thought that she hated the smell of cigarettes in a man's mouth, but at this moment, Shen Mi found in surprise that every ray of his breath she inhaled seemed to have a violent reaction in her body, making her The throbbing of her temples made her heart burst out of her throat, making every pore and every inch of her nerves go crazy and restless.

Xiao Yi's face was close at hand, and his breath seemed to be a little disturbed.
