Chapter 65 Fourth Movement · Duo of Light and Shadow (60) Changing Xiaobai

On October [-]st, when I woke up in the morning, I was surprised to find that Xiaobai hadn't slept in, but was lying on the sofa in the living room, holding a copy of "History of Ancient Chinese Literature" and reading it. I don't know if he was just pretending.After making breakfast, I asked him if he wanted to go to the cake shop with me. He replied that he wanted to stay at home and read books, and then go to the city library to borrow books in the afternoon. He also said that starting today, he would study the culture of this world.It seems that he really thought about it carefully and made up his mind to settle down here.

"Then you come to the cake shop at noon, and I'll give you your library card and tell you how to get on the bus."

"Oh, good." Xiaobai raised his head from the book and glanced at me, then responded lightly.

I put on my bag and went out to take the bus.I don't understand, actually the library card is lying in my bag right now... I don't understand why I don't give it to him now, instead of asking him to come to the cake shop at noon to get it from me?

During the Golden Week of the [-]th, merchants have taken a fancy to this rare business opportunity. The shops all over the street are doing profit-sharing promotions. There are a lot of people, and the business in the shops is also booming.Fortunately, the store manager recruited a few female college students who worked part-study in advance to help, so as not to be in a hurry.

At around twelve noon, Xiaobai came over.As soon as he entered the door, everyone in the store turned their eyes to him one after another, showing amazed expressions. It seemed that his charm continued unabated after he cut his hair short.He smiled at those people, not the seductive and ostentatious smile before, but a very elegant and polite one.His eyes searched for me in the crowd, and he stood there looking at me, looking innocent and well-behaved.

The girl managing the shelves next to me happened to be free, so I temporarily entrusted her with the cashier job, went to the preparation room to get a library card, squeezed in front of Xiao Bai from the crowd, and asked him, "Have you had lunch yet?" ?"

"I ate the cake." He looked at me and asked. "And you?"

"Not yet." I handed him my library card. "Go to the bus stop where you got off just now, take bus No. 789, and take three stops ahead to the library stop..." When I looked up, I found that he was not listening to me seriously, but turned around I looked around the shop for a while, then turned back and said to me: "I'm so busy today, so I'll stay and help too?"

I looked up at him in surprise.When store manager Zhang just came out of the preparation room, he suddenly saw Xiaobai, and squeezed over in surprise and joy: "Quanquan, you came back from Hong Kong? How is your health? Are you all right?"

"Aunt Zhang." Xiaobai immediately smiled sweetly. "It's all good, I don't need to go there anymore."

"That's good. You didn't come a few days ago. I heard Xiaoqing said that you went to Hong Kong for treatment. Auntie was so worried these days that she almost couldn't sleep. It's great to see you come back alive and well!"

"I'm really sorry for making my aunt worry." Xiao Bai became very polite. "It turns out that today is a holiday. There are so many customers in the store, so I can't be too busy? Anyway, I don't have anything important to do, so I can stay and help."

"Quanquan is really sensible!" Store manager Zhang was full of praise when he heard it.After complimenting him fiercely, he was given a stack of leaflets and asked him to distribute them at the door.

I also returned to my post, thanked the substitute girl, and started cashiering again.As soon as a group of customers passed by, the cashier was free for a while, and as soon as I raised my eyes, I couldn't help looking at the door.

The location of the cake shop is very good, there is a very bustling street outside the door, and there is an endless stream of people coming and going.In order to attract more customers, store manager Zhang found two sweet-looking girls to distribute leaflets to passers-by at the door.However, since many stores are doing this, passers-by seem to be a little disgusted with these leaflets.I saw those two girls before, and they often had to say a few words to people before they took the leaflets.There are also some people who take it, just change hands and throw it away.

But Xiaobai's situation is different, he just stops there, people in twos and threes approach one after another, and then he only needs to distribute them one by one, and then smile and say "welcome", there will be a steady stream of guests They kept coming in.

Store Manager Zhang really used this trick correctly. Generally, most of the people who come to buy desserts are single girls. Letting a handsome guy like Xiao Bai to attract customers is of course a matter of getting twice the result with half the effort.

However, Xiaobai these two days has always left me with a certain indescribable feeling.

"Hey, let me ask." I was in a daze when suddenly someone gently pushed my elbow.I turned around and saw that it was the girl who was helping me just now.He is also very delicate, tall and well-proportioned. He should be the object of pursuit of many boys in school.She glanced at Xiao Bai outside the door, and asked softly, "That, is that your boyfriend?"

I was stunned for a while, but I didn't realize it for a moment, and after a while, I hesitated and said, "...it doesn't count."

"Really? When I saw you just now, I thought it was." She looked at me in surprise. "That's your unrequited love, are you secretly in love with him?"

"Huh?" I looked at her in surprise and asked stupidly. "why?"

"Could it be that he has a crush on you? Such a handsome boy automatically sticks to the door. I don't believe anyone will push it away, unless it is a fool." She laughed "haha" a few times, half-closed her eyes and looked at me, the corners of which were charming style.

It's right to think about it, Xiaobai and I are standing together, if we must say that there is an unrequited love among them, no matter who looks at it, I will be the one who posted it.I smiled and said, "I have another boyfriend, he is my brother."

The girl pursed her lips again in amused voice: "The little girls nowadays are all about this!"

I looked at her. Although she looked very old-fashioned in her business attire, since the store manager Zhang recruited her for a work-study program, she should also be a student from a nearby university, and she would not be much older than me.

"By the way, my name is Chu Yuan. I'm a sophomore in German at Huixiu College of Foreign Languages. What about you? Are you from the same school, in the same class?" Huixiu College of Foreign Languages ​​is a specialized language training school. next to each other.I heard that the ratio of male to female students in Huixiu is 1:10, and the base of favored girls directly leads to the abundance of beauties in the school, so the school that boys in Shenghua usually talk about the most is Huixiu.

"Well, we are freshmen in the Chinese Department of Shenghua."

"Ah, Shenghua's?" The girl's voice suddenly raised a lot, seeing the customers all looking back, she quickly turned around and pretended to tidy up the shelves.After a while, he leaned in again and asked, "How come Shenghua's students come out to work? I heard that Shenghua treats students very well? Do you want to accumulate social experience in advance?"

What she said is right, if you enter Shenghua, as long as you don't pursue those glitzy things, you can complete four years of college without spending a penny.If it weren't for my family's heavy debts, I probably wouldn't have spent so much time working part-time during my freshman year. "Yes, what about you?"

"Me?" Chu Yuan smiled casually. "Let's play casually." After saying that, she turned around and tidied up the shelves.

After a busy day, it was late at night when I got home.Since Xiaobai came back from wandering for a day, he didn't talk very much. He was always bored by himself, as if he was thinking about something, which made me very uncomfortable.

Coming out of the shower, he saw Xiaobai leaning on the sofa watching TV, motionless, only seeing the TV screen reflected in his eyes, changing colors from time to time.When I approached him, he didn't feel anything, he didn't know what he was thinking, and he was in a daze.
