Chapter 037

Near the sea of ​​Pingjiang, even the hottest summer is always accompanied by a light mist as the night falls.

Xu Jingning followed Yan Xun half a step behind and entered the room. The air conditioner had been running automatically for a while. The cold air hit his face and he suddenly became much more sober. He lowered his head and saw that the cuffs of his hands were clenched. From the time he grabbed them at the door until now, there were obvious wrinkles on them.

Xu Jingning blinked, then half embarrassed and half hastily let go after she realized what was happening. Fortunately, Yan Xun didn't say much, just chuckled and led the person in.

"You brought a lot of things?"

When they met at the door, Yan Xun took over the two large suitcases. The only one left in Xu Jingning's hand was relatively small, but when the three were piled together, it could be seen that there were quite a lot of things.

Yan Xun didn't know why they moved back. They left in a hurry and disappeared for three days when they were busy. He didn't have time to ask. Now they came back with a lot of bags, as if the whole family was moving.

When Xu Jingning came to stay overnight before, he came with no money, but he could leave at any time, but now -

Thinking of the phrase "a very long time", Yan Xun's mouth corners slightly raised.

As expected, Xu Jingning replied, "Something happened to my neighbor, and I can't go back anytime soon. Anyway, I'll be homeless until the end of my performance."

"I'm really going to trouble Teacher Yan next."

Yan Xun's attention was somewhat distracted: "Why did you call the teacher back again?"

Xu Jingning smiled: "Well, thank you, Brother Yan Xun?"

Yan Xun's hands suddenly became unsteady as he carried the suitcase upstairs.

He coughed lightly: "Just call my name... You take a break first, I'll go clean up the guest room."

Then, without waiting for Xu Jingning to react, he took advantage of his long legs and stepped up the stairs in a few steps.

Seeing that the person was so enthusiastic, Xu Jingning did not chase after him and continued to toss, but walked leisurely towards the living room. He just relaxed and suddenly found something wrong.

I haven't seen it for three days, and this living room... has changed beyond recognition.

The previous nouveau riche decor has disappeared, replaced by a modern minimalist style that is no different from the second floor, but it is obviously more colorful and not as extreme as the black and white upstairs.

The walls didn’t have time to be changed in color, but it can be seen that almost all the furniture has been replaced and no trace of the original style can be found.

Xu Jingning walked to the new beige sofa and sat down. There was a floor-to-ceiling window on his side, but it was now covered tightly by thick curtains. It was not until he got closer that he noticed a pot of green plants in the corner behind him.

When I looked down, I found it was a potted lemon.

Xu Jingning was slightly stunned.

It's not that he had never heard of it, but it was the first time he saw it in someone's house.

Is it not more popular to display kumquats than lemons?

Xu Jingning reached out and touched them. The lemons were ripe, round, plump and shiny. Just by looking at them, one could tell that the owner had put a lot of effort into them.

It was rare for him to think about it, so he took out his mobile phone and took a picture of the pot of lemons. He also rarely adjusted the filter, then edited the post and posted it on Weibo.

After a while, Yan Xun had calmed down and went downstairs again: "I've put your luggage in for you, remember to pack it up...Have you eaten tonight?"

Speaking of this, Xu Jingning remembered that he had hurried over here after leaving the police station, and he was indeed a little hungry.

But he felt bad for bothering others so late at night. Just when he was about to lie and say he had already eaten, Yan Xun added, "Let me see what ingredients are in the refrigerator and show you how to cook them."

So Xu Jingning swallowed his original words and said, "Okay."

During this time, Xu Jingning returned to the guest room to clean up. As soon as he entered the room, he saw a room with a drastic change in style as expected.

If the guest room I stayed in before could still be considered a guest room, the current room is beginning to have some... popularity.

The new curtains and bedding sets have been changed to beige, and the sofa has also been replaced. Although the changes are not major, the overall look does feel a lot warmer.

Xu Jingning smiled gently, began to unpack the boxes, and completely decorated the room to suit his style.

Going downstairs again, Xu Jingning followed the sound and found Yan Xun busy in the open kitchen. The warm yellow ceiling light shone down, highlighting the soft light of Yan Xun's profile, which, combined with his orderly movements, was extremely ornamental.

Xu Jingning admired it for a moment, then suddenly sniffed it and frowned: "What's that smell?"

Yan Xun paused, then quickly turned around to lift the lid of the pot, but it was too late. The two of them looked at the black mass in silence.

Judging from the shape and size, this thing should be... fried noodles.

Xu Jingning didn't find fault with himself, he just praised dryly: "If it's not overcooked, it should look good."

When he looked up, he saw that the man was pursing his lips and seemed very unhappy. He even said something angry: "Why don't you try it?"

Yan Xun's frown instantly relaxed: "Forget it, there are other things."

As he said that, he dumped the stuff into the trash can.

With such a bad impression, Xu Jingning no longer had any expectations when looking at the boiling pot beside him.

He asked in horror: "What is this?"

"It should be considered a hodgepodge." Yan Xun thought after hearing this, "There are many ingredients, and I added a little bit of everything."

Xu Jingning: “…”

After listening, he quickly walked to the refrigerator, opened it, and saw a full of fresh ingredients, from meat to vegetables, various proteins and soy milk, which were rich in nutrition, but no matter how he thought about it, it seemed impossible to stew them together.

Xu Jingning took a deep breath, and even her voice trembled a little: "Yan Xun, tell me, can you cook..."

Yan Xun was strangely silent for a moment, and finally replied under the gaze of the people who were about to burst into tears: "Really?"

"I can cook noodles and fry eggs, so I think I can cook other dishes as well?"

Xu Jingning closed his eyes in despair.

In the end, I kicked the person out of the kitchen and had to feed myself.

Before leaving, Yan Xun was still a little worried: "Don't be stubborn if you can't cook. If you can't cook, can we order takeout?"

"Forget it. The life of a deliveryman is also a life. Look at the time now," Xu Jingning said as he took out a few packets of instant noodles. "I can still make some simple meals to fill my stomach."

Cooking instant noodles is not much better than cooking noodles in clear soup.

Fortunately, he stuffed it into the suitcase in advance. He had originally intended to satisfy his appetite when it was not mealtime, but now, Yan Xun got it directly.

Xu Jingning comforted himself by thinking of it as just paying some rent.

So ten minutes later, the two of them sat at the dining table, each with a bowl of noodles and some side dishes. Although simple, they were delicious. Xu Jingning, who had been hungry for half a day, quickly finished his dinner and said happily, "How is it? My cooking skills are pretty good, right?"

Although boiling water in a pot is not considered a cooking skill, but the eaters have no right to pick on the cooks. Yan Xun agreed very supportively: "Very good, Teacher Xu can go out and open a restaurant tomorrow."

Xu Jingning felt embarrassed by his praise: "That's not so outrageous..."

"Teacher Xu, don't be modest." Who would have thought that Yan Xun would actually act, his eyes serious and sincere, and he said it as if it were real, "Having this one specialty dish is enough."

Being stared at like this, Xu Jingning began to blush unconsciously.

He hastily found an excuse to leave, leaving Yan Xun to clean up the mess.

So you never saw the satisfied smile on his face after someone teased him.

Later in the evening, Xu Jingning washed up as usual and lay down on the bed.

My phone kept vibrating, and when I opened WeChat, I was bombarded with messages from Xu Xingcheng again.

Thinking about what he had been busy with these days, and that he had indeed caused his sister a lot of trouble, Xu Jingning was mentally prepared to be scolded. However, when he opened the chat box, the content that came into his eyes surprised him a little.

Xu Xingcheng: Have you changed your personality? Do you still know how to open for business?

Xu Xingcheng: That’s good. Your fans are very active. You can pick a few replies to let people know that you are a real person.

…

Xu Xingcheng: Oh, yes, there is not enough material for this episode. The performers are going to add a guest for a live broadcast. In the next three days, please pick a free time to report to the program team.

Xu Xingcheng: And what about your house? You are so unlucky to have that person as your neighbor... You can't live there anymore. If you want to find a place in the short term, you can only look for a place in the next few cities. What do you think?

There was too much information to be reported at once, so Xu Jingning picked out a few anxious replies first.

Lemon: Tomorrow, if it’s later it will be the second round of performances, I’m afraid I won’t be able to handle it by then.

Lemon: There is no rush for a house. I am currently living in...

Xu Jingning inexplicably stopped typing halfway in the chat box, then deleted everything and typed a new line and sent it out.

Lemon: I can take my time looking for a house. I just want to live in Pingjiang.

Xu Xingcheng didn't ask any further questions, just replied "OK", and then urged him to go to Weibo to interact with active fans.

Ever since he took on the role, Xu Jingning has been so busy that he has neglected everything else. The last time he posted on Weibo was for the promotion of the role, and it has been a month. In addition, during this period, he has gained a large number of fans who are eagerly waiting for his appearance.

As a result, this seemingly casual Weibo post was quickly pushed to the middle of the hot searches, a position that was neither too high nor too low.

It's somewhat funny.

Xu Jingning clicked on his homepage to see what everyone was commenting on.

Hot review number one: This man! Alive! He's back!

The second most popular comment: Wow, you have a lemon expression and a lemon tree, you are such a narcissistic guy!

Hot comment number three: Did they move or something? Ningning looks so happy!

Ten minutes later, another Weibo entry #许景宁搬家# came up

It is still at a neither-high-nor-low position, and is just a small-scale entertainment for fans, but netizens can't help but click in out of curiosity, and finally leave cursing that it's a scam.

When Yan Xun finished dealing with the matters at hand and was reminded, this keyword had already climbed to the tenth place.

If you click on the keywords, you can see a comment that Xu Jingning replied to under his new Weibo post.

[Did they move or something? Ningning looks so happy! ]

Xu Jing Lemonzi v replied: Well, I am very happy today ^-^
