Chapter 73

Ten minutes later, Miguo sat on a white chair in the small pharmacy, smiling like a fool who drank honey.

She couldn't help it, even if she pulled down the disobedient corner of her mouth several times, it was like a taut spring, once she let go, it returned to its original position.

Li Chengxun stood in front of the counter with his back to her talking to the clerk. He had just applied medicine to her hard-working head. Now, he was going to thank the female clerk who was willing to let him use the sample for free.

Mijia also has this brand of medicated oil. Mama Mi's ankle is not good, so she often asks Papa Mi to apply the medicated oil for her.

Miguo hated this strange smell deeply, and she stubbornly believed that the viscous substance used to harm people when she was mischievous when she was a child smelled a hundred times better than this thing.

But, at this moment. .

Mi Guo touched the damp place on the top of his head, fanned it, sniffed it, and closed his eyes in satisfaction, "It smells so fragrant."

"..."

The stray cat that climbed up the window sill gave her a cat eye with contempt.

Miguo became interested, and communicated silently with the little guy through the window glass.

Li Chengxun returned the medicated oil and cotton swabs, thanked the clerk, and came back to order rice crackers.

But he took a few steps, but stopped again.

Li Chengxun looked at the scene in front of him, in his deep eyes, besides narrowness, there also flashed an imperceptible astonishment.

As the sun sets, the fiery red light breaks through the clouds of the city and envelops this quiet corner.

A girl with a simple ponytail, with an extremely vivid expression, was talking to the little wild cat outside the floor-to-ceiling window.For a while, she waved her fists, frowning to beat the cat through the glass, and for a while, she combed the cat's back with a smile like a spring breeze, talking sweetly and sweetly.

Until the little wild cat got annoyed, had enough of it, and didn't want to gossip with this silly big girl anymore, so he turned around, jumped, and disappeared without a trace of a cat, without a trace.

The young girl frowned, twisted her nose, pouted her lips, and finally raised her hand and waved to the outside, "Bye bye, eat enough..."

Looking at the shadow glowed red by the rays of the sun, Li Chengxun's heart shuddered, and he felt that the empty places in his body were suddenly filled up, becoming warm and full.

He didn't know how soft the expression on his face was at this moment.

Mi Guo turned around, saw Li Chengxun behind him, and jumped off the chair, "Li Chengxun, let's go."

She didn't want to stay here any longer.

One is because of hunger, and the other is because Li Chengxun seems to be being targeted by the female shop assistant.

Li Chengxun looked down at her, knowing that it was inappropriate, but he still couldn't control it. He reached out and stroked Miguo's hair, "Does it still hurt?"

Miguo rubbed against the palm of his hand like a kitten that was scratched comfortably, "It doesn't hurt anymore."

She plans to buy a box of medicated oil for Mi's mother to take back. She now thinks that this is the best smell in the world.

Li Chengxun smiled and took her hand, "Let's go, let's go eat."

In the end, they went to the 'Hao Xiang Lai' western restaurant.

Miguo has a special liking for steak, but one serving is not enough to fill her big stomach. She was wondering whether to order another fried spaghetti, but Li Chengxun, who was opposite, handed her the sliced ​​filet mignon. , "I like to eat Chinese food."

Mi Guo was startled, "Then I'll order Chinese food for you."

Western restaurants usually have Chinese-style set meals. Just as he was about to raise his hand to call the waiter, Li Chengxun shook her hand in the air, "I'll come, eat quickly."

Miguo was moved to death.

She insisted on waiting for the meal with Li Chengxun, and then Li Chengxun asked her, "You didn't like dogs before, why do you like bears now?"

Mi Guo froze for a moment, thinking of the original WeChat message, her face felt a little hot.

She just sent the dog ear wechat casually for fun. In fact, her favorite animals are bears and teddy bears.

She let out an oh, her brain running at high speed, and a piece of brain cells died instantly.

"Hmm...um... I like dogs a lot. Dogs are loyal, right? However, I also like bears a lot. Little bears are chubby, so cute, aren't they?" After racking his brains, he finally had a flash of inspiration. She slapped the table, "Bear!!"

"..." Li Chengxun looked at her with a bad feeling.

"That's right! Dogs and bears! Dogs and bears! They are inseparable from the beginning, so I like them!" Miguo heaved a sigh of relief, "It must be for this reason, this reason."

"..." The corners of Li Chengxun's mouth twitched, but the smile in his eyes grew stronger. He tried to press his forehead to control his emotions, but in the end, he broke his efforts and laughed.

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"

Mi Guo smiled apologetically, and felt uncomfortable after laughing a few times. She seemed to be despised by Li Chengxun.So not to be outdone, he picked out the key point, pointed at Li Chengxun, and asked: "Then what about you, why do you like dogs and bears?!"

When the voice fell, it was like a heavy hammer falling to the ground, and it could never be taken back.

There was a sudden silence for a few seconds between the two.

Seeing that the smile on Li Chengxun's face gradually faded away, and his black eyes became darker, Mi Guo's previous little complacency suddenly disappeared without a trace.
Damn!Rice crackers!You are a pig, you are still a pig!How can you ask him such a question about North and South Korea? !

You are so unruly talking about dogs and bears, didn't you expose your little ambiguity before!

Ah, dizzy, Migo, you big fool.

What to do, what to do. .

The hands resting on the table trembled a little. She moved back little by little, trying to appear calmer, but as soon as she moved her fingers, Li Chengxun's big hand held them tightly.

The strength is just right, it won't make her feel pain, and it won't let her break free easily.

Li Chengxun looked at Miguo with downcast eyes and felt nervousness that he had never felt before. Although he tried to calm down on the surface, his heart had already left his body and was floating in the air. His throat suddenly became hoarse, and he seemed to be unable to utter a single word with all his strength.

The same goes for Migo, even more nervous than Lee Sung Hoon who was holding her hand.

She didn't even have the courage to raise her head and ask Li Chengxun, because she was afraid that if she opened her mouth, she would destroy the existing relationship.

She was afraid of becoming a stranger with Li Chengxun, even though his hands were so warm and powerful.

Li Chengxun looked at her deeply, and suddenly, he shook Mi Guo's hand with more force, and when she caught off guard and looked up at him, he suddenly lightened his strength, very lightly.

"As long as you like, I am willing to accompany you to like it."

Mi Guo froze, staring at him blankly.

Li Chengxun smiled slightly, squeezed her hand, "Do you want me to explain more clearly?"

"I..." Li Chengxun just said my name, but the waiter who delivered the Chinese set meal came over: "Sir, the ribs set you ordered is ready. Is it you or this lady?"

Li Chengxun frowned slightly, thinking to himself, he just wanted to confess his confession seriously, is it so difficult?

"Put it here." He let go of Mi Guo's hand and pointed to the empty space in front of him.

Mi Guo hurriedly buried her head in her mouth, as if she was afraid of what he would say, so she didn't look up to continue the previous topic.

The atmosphere was a little dull.

Li Chengxun lowered his head and ate a piece of pork ribs, felt the taste, and then picked out a few good-looking small ribs for the rice crackers.

"It tastes good, try it."

The rice cracker stuffed her mouth full of steak, so she couldn't raise her head to let Li Chengxun see the joke, so she couldn't refuse, so she had to continue stuffing the ribs into her mouth.

"Hi'er—" the voice was not harmonious.

Seeing the little head on the opposite side getting lower and lower, Li Chengxun smiled, took out a tissue, and called softly, "Migo."

"Hi'er" Miguo covered her mouth, wishing she could find a crack in the ground and slip in.

Li Chengxun had the urge to laugh again, but he still held back, leaned over, and wiped the corner of the rice cracker's mouth sticking to the fresh gravy with a tissue, "Is it delicious?" he asked.

Miguo's face was so hot that an egg could be cooked. She didn't dare to look at Li Chengxun, her face flushed, her eyes wandered for a while, and she stammered: "Okay... delicious."

Li Chengxun smiled and retreated to his seat.

He raised his hand and asked the waiter to bring a glass of warm water. He asked the rice fruit to drink in one gulp, saying that it would have a miraculous effect on hiccups. The mood suddenly relaxed a lot, she seemed to have forgotten what happened before, and chatted with Li Chengxun again.

Later, she held back her urine to go to the bathroom, and Li Chengxun waited on the seat.

Li Chengxun didn't eat anything all night, but he didn't feel hungry.He stared at the messy rice cracker for a while, then raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and turned his gaze to the bustling night scene of City A.

When dealing with love, he has always been calm and self-possessed. The impulsive confession just now surprised him somewhat.

Actually, thinking about it carefully, now is not the best time to express your heart to Mi Guo.

Although he is 100% sure that the girl he likes is Miguo who has no heart, but he is under great pressure and has not yet had the right to love. In other words, the current Li Chengxun does not have the capital to gain a foothold in City A.He can't give Miguo any material enjoyment, and he can't even promise the future to the girl he loves.

Unable to move forward, he will inevitably feel regretful, but he is still very grateful that his hesitation did not push the relationship between the two to a cliff.

Because he deeply understands that there is no kind of love that is purely spiritual and does not ask for anything in return from the other party.Even if Migo is such a selfless girl, her family will not allow their daughter to be with a man who is in debt.

I don't know if it's because the older you get, the less courage you have. The bravery when he accepted Ye Mei's help has disappeared now. Facing the kind and simple Mi Guo, he has never even accumulated the courage to tell the truth.

He is a coward.

Or rather, a liar.

Li Chengxun lowered his eyes, feeling strong disgust in his heart.

In front of him, there is only one path against his will, but only this shortcut hidden in the dark can get him everything he wants.

Including, love.

"Li Chengxun, when did you go to pay the bill again! I'll treat you as promised! Did you forget?!"

Li Chengxun's eyes blurred, and Mi Guo came back angrily.
