The man who loves and chases the murderer lives next door

Chapter 298 Wind, Flowers, Snow, Moon, and Firewood (Part [-])

"Little kid, what do you know!" Xia Lan rolled her eyes at Coke.

"Hey, I'm already fifteen, so I know everything I need to know? My old lady antique, ok? Forget about telling you, you can figure it out for yourself. I want to hurry up and revisit our family history. Yu's flourishing beauty!" The girl grabbed the remote control panel, grabbed a fragrant pear and stuffed it into her mouth, and sat cross-legged on the sofa with a relaxed and comfortable expression.

"Homework? Huh?" Xia Lan turned her head and stared at her.

The girl took a bite of the pear, and immediately froze when she heard this, not daring to chew.

The two looked at each other for a few seconds, the little girl lost her battle, took her hand away, and muttered while chewing on the pear.

"Combining work and rest, although this semester is only the third year of junior high school, it is too inhumane to deprive all entertainment items? God, why does there exist such a thing as the senior high school entrance examination!"

While making complaints, she resigned herself to putting on her slippers, and just as she stood up to turn off the TV, she started yelling.

"elder sister!"

"Where are you calling the soul? Hurry up and go into the house." Xia Lan was very strict.

"No, it's not!" The girl pointed at the TV, "Look, look!"

She looked terrified, no, more precisely, it should be surprise and excitement.

Xia Lan didn't know why, so she looked at the TV in the direction of her finger and was stunned.

The TV screen turned into a pure black background, and the white characters on the black background were brightly displayed in large characters——Xia Lan, I like you!

There was no signature or remarks, but Xia Lan thought of Qiu Sen almost immediately.

"Xia Lan, I like you? Oh my God! Who is so cool, sister, can you teach me this technique so that I can learn it so I can confess my love to my male god? It's so cool!" Coke clasped her hands in front of her chest , the eyes narrowed into a slit, the eyes are full of admiration, and the whole girl's heart is overflowing.

Xia Lan gave her a cold look, then stood up and quickly walked towards the window.

Sure enough, Qiu Sen stood downstairs, saw her approaching, and immediately raised the iPad in his hand and waved it at her.

The corners of Xia Lan's mouth twitched involuntarily. After all, he is an international hacker. Is his technology used for such a waste?

Downstairs, seeing that Xia Lan didn't respond, Qiu Sen immediately retracted the iPad and quickly entered commands with one hand.

Xia Lan frowned, and then heard Coke's excited voice in the living room, "It's changed! 'I'm willing to take care of you, promise me'! Wow, who is this?"

As he said that, Coke ran over excitedly, Xia Lan failed to block the little lunatic, and then let her see Qiu Sen.

"Is that the little uncle just now?" Pulling the curtain, Coke blocked himself, then faced Xia Lan, his eyes lit up, "Sister, who is he? He's so amazing!"

Xia Lan, who had always maintained a calm state, finally couldn't help but took a deep breath, then turned and walked towards the door.

"Sister, where are you going!" Coke couldn't hide his excitement.

Xia Lan didn't answer, but when she passed the living room, the subtitles on the TV changed again.

[I'm not joking, I'm serious, please don't refuse hastily, at least give me a chance. 】

Seeing this sentence, Xia Lan couldn't help but stop.

On the same night, Shangguanhong asked her to give him a chance, and now Qiu Sen came to ask her to give him a chance...

She originally thought that Qiu Sen was just a momentary brain fever, but now it seems...

Everyone is an adult, and although this kid usually looks quite out of tune, he is still very reliable when it comes to work. As for relationships, no one knows about things that he has never been in contact with, and she doesn't take it seriously.

But after tonight, she knew that she could no longer ignore Qiu Sen's affection for her.

"Sister," Coke tugged at the hem of her clothes, "I don't want to be a burden, and I don't even want to drag you down."

"What to say is none of your business, there is nothing to drag you down." Xia Lan interrupted Coke firmly.

Who knows that Coke insisted on finishing the speech, "That is, if I hadn't wanted to be promoted to junior high school three years ago, you must have gone abroad with Dr. Shangguan. In fact, you have no obligation to take care of me at all, let alone take care of my life and miss your true love. Sister, Dr. Shangguan is actually not wrong."

"You!" Xia Lan couldn't refute Coke's words for a while.

"Or you didn't let go of Dr. Shangguan, or should we chase him back?" Cola suggested.

Xia Lan looked at her, her eyes were full of guilt and relief, and her eyes were very complicated.

She reached out to stroke the broken hair on her forehead behind her ears for Coke, and paused before speaking.

"Coke, I broke up with Shangguan not just because of you. If it wasn't for that incident, I couldn't believe it. We only have romantic romance, but we don't have the practicality of oil, salt, sauce and vinegar. Shangguan is very good, but he is too good. People often only have eyes for themselves.”

Xia Lan didn't expect that this little brat saw everything. If she didn't explain it clearly to her, she might blame herself for everything.

But in fact, this is not the case.

And for the first time, she seriously analyzed her relationship with Shangguan.

"When we were together, I was the one who chased him. The woman chased the man's interlayer gauze. I was right. Later I realized that it wasn't all true. When I was young, I always had a kind of inexplicable vanity, and I liked others to praise myself. Praise is worthy of him, but he lives himself as a subsidiary of others. Now that I think about it, it was just because I liked him enough at the time, and I happened to be good enough, beautiful enough, and worthy enough to be with him. It's just a configuration of a man with a talent and a woman's appearance."

Speaking of this, Xia Lan smiled self-deprecatingly, "In fact, Shangguan has not changed. He also said just now that we are more suitable in terms of the cost of choosing a mate. To be honest, at that moment, I actually thought in my heart: that's it. Well, that's good too. Look, I've become a utilitarian person too."

Xia Lan raised her hand to cover her forehead, her eyes drooped, and she looked at the shadow on the floor.

The face that was once young, fresh, plain but still beautiful has become somewhat illusory, gradually losing its reality under the cover of makeup.

"Sister, but you still rejected Dr. Shangguan in the end." Coke stretched out his arms to hug her, raised his head and said, "Why?"

At this moment, Coke was a little confused.

Half-grown children already have their own independent views on many things, but they are still a little ignorant of what Xia Lan said about growth, about change, and about cognition.

Even adults can't figure it out, let alone a young girl?

Why did you reject Shangguan Hong?
If it was really sensible, wouldn't Shangguanhong's suggestion be the best choice at the moment.

If two people are together, not to mention the love between husband and wife, at least they can respect each other as guests. This is already a very good destination in the current society where the divorce rate is so high.

"He's not suitable for me." Xia Lan replied.

"Sister?" Cole frowned, his eyes were full of doubts, and there was obviously some disbelief besides doubts.

Xia Lan smiled, "Maybe, maybe, a little unwilling? I still don't want to let it go."

Coke nodded, expressing "Understood".

But the worried little Coke still couldn't help asking: "What about the little uncle downstairs?"

Xia Lan frowned, feeling a little tricky.

"Sister, you care." Little Coke watched the expression change on her face, "You didn't even bother to give eyes to those people who were blind dated before, but now..."

"No, he is my colleague, and we will get along with each other in the future." Xia Lan immediately relaxed her expression and replied solemnly.

Coke pouted, "Is that really the case? I thought there was something going on?"

"Little boy, what are you doing so foolishly?"

"I'm quite worried. If you see him embarrassed now, let me tell you about it? Sibling love, no matter what, you don't accept it, right?" Coke was about to walk towards the door.

Xia Lan was speechless, and went straight forward, knelt down to change her shoes, and said while changing her shoes: "Please do what you should do at your age, your sister is not so cowardly, you can still deal with this little thing .go back."

"Oh..." Coke raised his mouth, and then muttered, "It's become a common practice for you to reject people all these years, I'm afraid that you will form a habit and don't know how to accept people."

"What are you talking about?"

"No," she straightened up and shook her hand, "I wish you failure."

"..."

Not wanting to say anything more to this girl, Xia Lan took the bag from the shoe cabinet and went out.

Coke ran towards the living room, and saw her sister downstairs after a while.

But Xia Lan was obviously guarding against her peeping, so she got into the car with Qiu Sen. After a while, the car started and drove away from the community.

"Tch." Coke raised his eyebrows in dissatisfaction, but when he looked back and saw the words on the screen, he immediately smiled again.

What her sister met this time is not an ordinary person, maybe it will be true?

The worried Coke seemed to see a glimmer of hope, and immediately happily went back to the room to do homework, quietly waiting for her sister to return.

In the dead of night, she was not the only one waiting.

Ji Qian sat cross-legged on the sofa, two dogs sat on her legs, one on the left and one on the right, and Mao Mao used her legs as a pillow and fell asleep with her chin resting.

After a closer look, I found that not only the two puppies were asleep, but Ji Qian's head was pointing to and fro like a dragonfly on the water, and she was also extremely sleepy.

"Sister Qian, why don't you go to bed?" Xiaolou reminded, looking unbearable.

Ji Qian shook her head, "It's okay, I'll wait."
