Bamboo horse is not a gentleman

Chapter 11

"Really? It doesn't matter to me who you are." Yuan Qing said angrily, "If you don't report your name and reason for calling, I will hang up."

The other party didn't panic, but smiled:
"Oh, it turns out that Xiao Qingqing is not a dedicated assistant. Be careful that she will be fired by Lu Bai one day. Well, you can tell me that my surname is Li Mingyan, and that kid Lu Bai will understand everything when he hears it. "

After that, the man cut off the call.

Yuan Qing put down his phone and walked into the study again in a daze.

Lu Bai was describing the plot of the hero's investigation of the crime scene late at night, the moon was dark and the wind was high, the courtyard was as deep as the sea, and suddenly there was a "creak" sound in his ears, he couldn't help being startled, and raised his head suddenly , found that Ome had actually returned.

On the day of drafting, the inspiration was interrupted. Lu Bai, like the evil spirit in the Shura field, was about to lose his temper when he heard Yuan Qing ask:

"Lu Bai, a man named Li Yan is looking for you."

Lu Bai was stunned for a moment, and his angry face just now seemed to be wearing a mask. Even the subtle expressions disappeared. The whole person seemed to have changed from a breathing human being to a soulless puppet. Numbly answer:
"Don't pay attention to him, an irrelevant person."

"He called just now and said he wanted to find you."

"Call again and say I'm not here."

Yuan Qing nodded, hesitated to speak, put the interview outline on the desk in a somewhat lonely manner, and quietly left the study.

Facing the computer, Lu Bai typed on the keyboard for a while, then frowned again, deleted them all, his eyes drifted away involuntarily, and he couldn't type a word anymore.After a while, he brushed his hair irritably, stood up, picked up the mobile phone on the coffee table on the sofa, and dialed a few numbers.

Time passed by, and the melodious and moving piano music was played repeatedly on the phone, but there was no echo. Lu Bai's knuckles holding the receiver turned blue and white due to too much force. At this moment, a voice came. The man's breezy voice:

"Hehe, sorry to keep you waiting."

"Fart, let go." Lu Bai swears very rarely.

"There's good news and bad news, which one do you want to hear first?"

"I don't have the patience to go around in circles with you."

"Hehehehehe, if this is the case, why call me? You kid is still as wrong as before. Forget it, as an older brother, I won't care about my younger brother. The good news is——I came out Yes. The bad news is—Ruan Xinmei is going to be unlucky, do you want to guess her fate together?"

Accompanied by Li Yan's shallow laughter, Lu Bai cut off the call, and the study suddenly returned to silence. He slowly walked back to the desk and sat down, his brows were furrowed, and when he raised his eyes, a cup of steaming hot black coffee.

For a while, the man didn't speak, just stared straight at the slightly whitish black coffee, at the pair of white hands gently stirring the creamer, seemed to think of something, slightly raised the corners of his mouth:

"I only drink black coffee with creamer when I'm extremely upset."

"What?" Yuan Qing's stirring action stopped suddenly, her eyes widened, like a civet cat who has just found some extraordinary prey.

"Because I drink this most disgusting coffee, I will feel that the disobedient people in this world are more pleasing to the eye." While Qingmei was in a daze, Lu Bai took the spoon from her hand and threw it to the side of the tray.

Yuan Qing froze on the spot, speechless for a while, with mixed feelings in his heart.I have known a man for more than ten years, and I thought I knew more about his likes and dislikes than other people, but I didn't expect that I couldn't see through his mind even in such a small detail.

Now, although the two live under the same roof, eat together, occasionally watch TV together, and go out together, the distance between their hearts is like parallel lines, and they can never get closer.

Lu Bai looked at the woman's dejected look, flashed complex and deep eyes, and quickly returned to his expressionless face:
"By the way, next month is coming soon, you have to prepare well."

The topic changed too quickly, and Yuan Qing didn't turn the corner all at once:
"what to prepare?"

"Didn't I want to arrange a blind date for you? Auntie called me again yesterday and asked me to arrange it quickly. I'm afraid that if you delay it, you will not be able to get married."

"That's... that handsome guy?"

"Yes." Lu Bai looked at Yuan Qing with deep and complicated eyes, "If you want to meet, I will arrange it."

"But..." Yuan Qing lowered his head, rubbing the corner of his clothes uncomfortably, with a twisted and weird expression.

"what happened?"

"No, it's nothing." Yuan Qing shook her head, she couldn't explain her feeling at the moment, her heart was like a nose with a cold, stuffy and sore.

Lu Bai looked her up and down silently for a moment, then suddenly raised the corners of his lips, and said with a playful smile:

"Don't be so unconfident. Although that guy's conditions are thousands of times better than yours, as far as I know, this guy has unique taste and is very understandable."

As a result, Writer Lu Da couldn't even drink coffee with creamer, and his comrade Qingmei swept away the mug and A Bai with lightning speed, leaving behind a deafening sound of closing the door.

The corners of Lu Bai's slightly raised mouth sank again.

Leaving the study angrily, Yuan Qing returned to the guest room full of worries, probably because she walked too fast, she accidentally shut the door of A Bai.

Ah Bai whimpered, so wronged that he kept scratching the door with his little paws.

"Mom." Yuan Qing thought for a moment before calling his mother.

"Hey, Qingqing, the mobile phone signal is not good, please speak louder, I can't hear you." Ms. Wang Yuqian's loud voice shook Yuan Qing's ears.

"I said, Mom, I don't want to go on blind dates anymore!"

Just as Yuan Qing yelled at the top of her voice, her mother immediately jumped three feet high:

"You unfilial daughter, you are so old and haven't married yet, do you want to kill me?!"

"But, Mom..." Yuan Qing hesitated for a moment, but decided to speak out, "Actually, I lost my job."

"what?"

"The company closed down, and I haven't found a job so far. If it weren't for Lu Bai's help, your daughter would probably starve to death on the street." Yuan Qing thought for a while, and told her all honestly, "So now I don't have the mood to fall in love at all."

Surprisingly, Wang Yuqian did not yell after hearing this, but said after a moment of silence:

"Qing, then you should finish this time first. If you are not satisfied, we can talk about it after you find a job."

"mom……"

"Mom knows, it's not easy for you to be outside alone, especially a girl, but it's not good to be single, after all, it's still not safe. When I think about it, I can't sleep all night." Speaking of this, Wang Yuqian sniffed, feeling very worried. Weeping, "Sometimes, I think, if you don't marry your stepfather, you don't have to suffer this kind of suffering. No matter whether you have a job or find a boyfriend, your mother will support you, and the two of you will live together Eating porridge is better than supporting yourself alone."

Yuan Qing was most afraid of Wang Yuqian's strategy of mourning soldiers. Although she repeated these words countless times, she knew in her heart that even if everything happened again, after her father passed away, her mother would have no choice but to remarry. Jin, it is difficult to maintain daily expenses, let alone tuition fees.From this point of view, she is still grateful to her stepfather Xu Hu.

"Okay, okay, I'll go on a blind date." Yuan Qing hid his thoughts in a relaxed tone, "Mom, you have to take good care of yourself, don't keep arguing with your stepfather."

"I see. You have to be good. Don't worry about not being able to find a job. Mom will send you the money."

"Mom, no need." Yuan Qing just wanted to refuse, but Wang Yuqian hung up the phone.

For two days in a row, Yuan Qing suffered from rare insomnia.

No matter with eyes open or closed, there is always a magic voice ringing in your ears:
Going on a blind date next month.

The blind date is a handsome guy.

He is a handsome guy that even Lu Bai is full of praise for.

In this way, with two panda eyes, Thursday came in a blink of an eye.
