The sudden rain comes and goes quickly.
Qin Dongling also realized what those words meant. Although he showed nothing on the surface, his ears were actually red.
He silently took off his coat and said, "Put it on."
"I'm not cold." Xu Mei shook her head.
Qin Dongling said succinctly, "My clothes are wet."
Xu Mei turned her head to look at herself. The white clothes were indeed more obvious, so she took Qin Dongling's clothes and obediently draped them over her shoulders.
The coat was stained with his fresh soapberry scent and carried a strong warmth. Wrapped in this coat, it felt as if his whole body was being embraced in his arms.
Qin Dongling glanced at her again and again out of the corner of his eye.
Xu Mei tucked her hair behind her ears, revealing her beautiful and delicate face. The two of them walked all the way to the door of their home, both secretly glancing at each other.
"I'm home." Looking at the door just around the corner, Xu Mei stopped and turned to look at Qin Dongling. "Wait until I wash your clothes and then I'll give them back to you."
"Um."
Xu Mei smiled slightly and waved at him.
The door opened and closed again.
Qin Dongling stood there for a while, stroking the corner of his mouth, and then he realized that he had actually smiled without knowing when.
the next day,
Xu Mei hurried to the bookstore with her clothes. The door was still closed, but Qin Dongling was still there.
She returned the clothes to Qin Dongling and said, "I was worried that you wouldn't come today. Fortunately, it didn't rain last night, so the clothes are dry."
Qin Dongling: "Don't be so anxious."
The two of them looked at the closed bookstore at the same time. After a moment, Xu Mei suggested, "This bookstore has been closed for a long time... Why don't we go to the school library?"
The school library she mentioned was naturally the university library. Reason told Qin Dongling to keep his composure, but when facing Xu Mei, he lost his reason.
So the two of them went to the school library again. The collection of books here was more than that in the bookstore. The only drawback was that in the busy library, everyone was staring at them.
Qin Dongling was a little worried, "Will they misunderstand?"
Xu Mei teased him deliberately, "Do you really want others to misunderstand you?"
“…….”
"Okay," Xu Mei said, "I don't care what others think or do every day, as long as I know what's good in my heart."
This is different, Qin Dongling sighed secretly, he would also misunderstand.
Unfortunately, the other party didn't know what he was thinking and continued to take him around the campus. When they reached the lake, he said, "I heard that you can skate on this lake in the winter. You can also take pictures then."
As she said this, she took two quick steps, walked past Qin Dongling, and turned around to look at him with a smile.
Looking at this scene, Qin Dongling thought that if he took a photo, it would definitely be beautiful.
For two consecutive days, the two met at this frequency, and finally Qin Dongling sent her home.
That day, after the two said goodbye, Xu Mei walked into the house and saw Xu Jueping and Xu Qing sitting in the yard.
The first time they saw her, Xu Jueping and Xu Qing's eyes flashed with surprise. They hadn't seen each other for so long. Girls really change a lot when they grow up. They become more beautiful as they grow older.
This way, you don't have to worry about the Chu family.
Thinking of this, Xu Jueping's expression became even more amiable. "Xiaomei, I haven't seen you for so long. If I ran into you on the road, I wouldn't even recognize you."
Xu Mei said nothing and glanced at Guan Jinghua.
Guan Jinghua didn't intend to save face for Xu Jueping. "If you have something urgent, just tell me directly. Don't reminisce here."
If her daughter hadn't come back to stay these few days, and she didn't want the neighbors to laugh at her, she would have kicked the two people out long ago.
Xu Jueping was embarrassed and there was some dissatisfaction in his eyes, but considering his own plan, he finally held back.
He put on a kind face and said, "For so many years, I haven't looked for anyone else. Now Xiaomei is so sensible, and Ah Qing is also doing well. How much anger can you not let go?"
This is the door to seek peace.
The funny thing is, he had never thought of asking for peace for so many years, but now Xu Mei had grown up and become a beautiful young lady, and he remembered having such a daughter.
"Don't dream," Guan Jinghua said calmly, "From the moment I left you with Xiaomei, there will be no day when I will go back."
He didn't give Xu Jueping any room to maneuver and simply shut him up.
Xu Qing didn't say anything, his lips tightly pursed.
"You!" Xu Jueping felt a headache. "How can you find a good husband if you live in this place with Xiaomei? Only if she becomes my daughter can she find a good family."
Xu Mei's ridicule came again, as expected.
Even though she and her mother had left the Xu family, she was only half his blood, so he would still miss her.
But she is no longer the Xu Meixiao who had nothing and could only gamble everything.
Xu Mei now has her mother's unconditional love, a husband she can always be with, and a bright future.
"roll!"
As if to confirm her thoughts, Guan Jinghua suddenly stood up and threw everything in the yard at Xu Jue, "Get out of here!"
"Xu Jueping, I'm telling you, don't even think about messing with Xiaomei's marriage, you idiot!"
She has always had a mild temper, and every time she gets angry like this, it's because she's protecting her daughter.
Xu Jueping was in a state of disarray after being hit, and Xu Qing wasn't much better off, hiding here and there. He frowned, "Mom, can you be more rational?"
This was the first time he spoke since coming here today.
He didn't say a word to his sister, didn't ask about his mother, and when he did, it was to blame her.
Guan Jinghua's blood ran cold as she remembered that in that nightmare, her son also said that she was being unreasonable.
Now it seems that she was right to take her daughter away from home. Xu Qing and Xu Jueping are exactly the same, both are cold-blooded animals who don't recognize their own relatives.
Guan Jinghua no longer had any sympathy. She picked up the broom and drove the father and son out like they were sweeping garbage.
The soundproofing here was not good, and Xu Jueping and Xu Qing could already see people on the building watching the fun.
They couldn't afford to lose face, so they could only open the door and leave with a grim look on their faces.
Xu Mei calmed down and closed the gate.
Even after returning to the house, Guan Jinghua's hands were still shaking slightly, but her tone and eyes were firm, "Xiaomei, don't worry, Mom will protect you."
Xu Mei held her hand and nodded, trying not to let the worry in her eyes affect her mother.
As the saying goes, it's better to offend a gentleman than a villain. Xu Jueping and Xu Qing are not gentlemen, and they often do things by any means necessary.
Perhaps only by marrying Qin Dongling can they cut off their unrealistic daydreams.
Once this idea came into her mind, she could not get rid of it. It was still lingering in Xu Mei's mind until the next day.
"What's wrong with you?"
Seeing that they were about to reach her doorstep, Xu Mei was still in a daze, so Qin Dongling asked.
Xu Mei looked into his worried eyes and realized that now was not the right time, so she shook her head and said, "It's nothing. I'll be home soon. See you tomorrow."
After saying that, he turned around and prepared to push open the door.
"Wait," Qin Dongling called her at this time.
Listening carefully, his voice sounded a bit nervous. "I don't know your name yet."
This idiot finally knows how to ask.
Xu Mei's bad mood disappeared, she turned around and blinked, "Xu Mei."
"Xu Mei," Qin Dongling repeated, "Is it the plum blossom?"
Xu Mei sighed and walked a few steps to Qin Dongling.
As the night deepened, the two of them became closer than ever before.
Looking at her face, Qin Dongling's heart began to beat faster for some reason.
After a second, Xu Mei grabbed his hand hanging by his side and stroked her own crescent-shaped eyebrows.
Her voice was somewhat helpless. "It's the eyebrows that are like 'After putting on makeup, I whispered to my husband, 'How deep should I draw my eyebrows to suit the fashion?'"
