Chapter 23: Gifts

Lu Siyin couldn't keep up with his jumping thoughts, and she uttered "ah" without reacting. Then her expression immediately relaxed visibly, and she said innocently: "Do you have anything suitable for giving as a gift?"

Zhou Zipei paused when she heard it, looked up at her, smiled, and asked back: "Give it as a gift?"

Lu Siyin nodded without noticing, and his nerves were thick. He put his eyes on the counter again, looking very serious.

Zhou Zipei pressed the cigarette into the ashtray, and the last spark went out. The fragrance lost its source and was blown away by the wind without a trace.

He looked at Lu Siyin's focused gaze with an ambiguous expression, and took a step closer. The distance between them was instantly shortened, and he could even see the fine soft hair on her face.

Lu Jingshu stood aside leisurely, and when she saw this scene, she crossed her arms and raised her eyebrows calmly.

"Who are you sending?" Her tone was nonchalant, as if she was asking casually.

Lu Siyin didn't notice the subtle atmosphere between them at all, and even felt that he was too close, so she took two steps back suddenly.

Just talk, why are you so close?

She glared at Zhou Zipei in dissatisfaction, as if she blamed him for being too nosy.

Zhou Zipei: "..."

Lu Siyin said compassionately: "Send a boy."

She felt with her tiny emotional intelligence that she couldn't go empty-handed when giving gifts and apologizing.

Although the things bought here are just sundries and not expensive, what matters is the thought, hehe.

Zhou Zipei said "Oh" in a very light tone, and her attitude could even be described as cold, without the enthusiasm she had when questioning just now.

Lu Siyin glanced at him strangely. Although there was still a faint smile in his eyes, why did she always feel that he was so cold, as if covered with a thin layer of frost. Alas

- men's hearts are like needles in the sea!

She looked around again, and suddenly thought of something, her eyes lit up, and she was extremely excited.

Zhou Zipei saw it, without showing it on her face, but she sneered in her heart.

Very good... Still thinking about falling in love at such a young age.

"Do you have any hair dye here?"

Zhou Zipei's face darkened, thinking, this kid doesn't want to learn good things, but only bad things. She wants to dye her hair with another man

. "One color doesn't seem to work..." Lu Siyin muttered to himself in thought.

Very good, she wants to dye her hair a couple's style!

Zhou Zipei's eyes were sparking, his back teeth were clattering, and his dark eyes were fixed on the ignorant girl.

Lu Siyin made up his mind, looking at him expectantly, counting on his fingers as he spoke: "Do you have orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and purple hair dye?"

Zhou Zipei: "..."

Lu Jingshu: "..."

"How about another red color, to collect all seven colors to summon the dragon?"

Zhou Zipei showed a bit of sarcasm.

Lu Siyin didn't care and said casually: "No, he has red."

Lu Jingshu heard this and thought of Pei Chenxuan's red hair. She smiled and suddenly felt a little sympathy for him.

Zhou Zipei's face became even uglier after hearing this. He licked his palate, restraining his temper and the bad factors that were about to burst out. He said in a low voice: "Are you going to dye it green?"

Red and green

match Lu Siyin frowned and glanced at him with a strange look in his eyes. He was puzzled and said: "Why should I dye my hair and no one will cheat on me."

I can't imagine how non-mainstream she can be with a head of green hair!

Zhou Zipei heard another meaning and laughed immediately. Looking at the girl's white and alienated face, he took a deep breath and lowered his eyes to take out the cigarette box again.

Oh, after falling in love, I still worry about being cheated on.

Lu Siyin felt the pressure of the man in front of her was getting lower and lower. She muttered in her heart and said blankly: "Do you have it or not? I am in a hurry to apologize to my classmate!"

Yes, my classmate apologized to me.

Zhou Zipei calmly put the half-smoked cigarette back, his expression became bright, his face was kind, and he said softly to Lu Siyin: "Yes."

"Wait here."

Lu Siyin saw Zhou Zipei walking inside. Five minutes later, he found the hair dye from some corner, put it in a black plastic bag, and handed it to her.

She opened it in surprise and nodded with satisfaction.

The general store is indeed a general store, it has everything.

Zhou Zipei asked worriedly: "These are not for you."

"Of course not, I don't have such a hobby."

Lu Siyin walked to the cashier with the things in his hand, and then he was stumped.

This... there is no QR code! There is not even a computer to scan the payment code!

How to pay? Is this not popular in this world? But I don't have any cash on me...

As if seeing Lu Siyin's embarrassment, Zhou Zipei spoke at the right time: "Online payment is not available here for the time being. If you want to pay, you can transfer it to me... 80 yuan."

He remembered that Lu Siyin seemed to value money last time, and he said the price for the first time in his life.

Lu Jingshu had already taken out her cell phone, and when she heard a number she didn't expect, she raised her eyebrows, but in the end did nothing.

Lu Siyin was stunned, and didn't say yes or no.

Zhou Zipei was helpless, thinking, is eighty... too much?

He carefully observed her expression and tried, "Twenty is also OK."

Lu Siyin turned his eyes to his face in a daze, and suddenly exclaimed, almost jumping up with joy: "Wow, my God, it's so cheap! Boss, you are so kind, there are not many merchants like you who are conscientious and affordable. Just because you are so kind, I will definitely make you my friend. In the future, as long as I have a bite to eat, I will not let you go hungry. In the future in Pugao, I will protect you and make your store prosperous."

Lu Siyin was so excited that he instantly forgot the other party's identity, and even tiptoed to pat his shoulder, full of social banditry, with an expression of a good brother for life.

Lu Jingshu's expression was blank: "..."

Zhou Zipei was amused by her, and leaned closer, her hot breath sprayed on Lu Siyin's slightly hot cheeks, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Okay, sister."

Lu Siyin's expression froze, and her face suddenly turned red, like a cooked duck.

Being called sister by such a handsome man, and a man older than herself, Lu Siyin felt secretly happy, and stammered, "You, you are shameless, you are not young anymore and still call me sister."

Zhou Zipei stood up, slightly distanced, and smiled, "Not that old. Only five years old."

Lu Siyin didn't waste any more time, and said directly, "Where is WeChat, I'll transfer the money to you."

Two minutes later, there was one more person in her address book.

"Then I'll go first, bye."

"Bye!"

Lu Siyin hurriedly pulled Lu Jingshu away. When passing by the door frame, he paused, turned around guiltily and added: "This door... I'm so sorry!"

Zhou Zipei was calm, looked at her with a smile, and slowly said: "It's okay."

Anyway, the money has been paid, Lu Siyin expressed his apology symbolically, holding the black plastic bag, and disappeared in the crowd with Lu Jingshu beside him.

Zhou Zipei stood outside the door for a long time, looking at the direction they left, his eyes were distant and deep, his handsome face attracted passers-by to look at him, and his beautiful peach blossom eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of mist, hazy.

No one knows what he is thinking, whether he is happy or sad.
