Chapter 48 Chapter 48 He wouldn’t…like men too…
No matter what happened, saving lives is the most important thing.
Arriving at her mother-in-law’s side, Shen Miao quickly took her pulse, and at the same time moved closer to listen carefully to her breathing.
Fortunately, it was nothing serious. It was just that the blood rushed up temporarily, and there were too many people around and the air was not circulating, which caused dizziness.
In order to stabilize her condition quickly, Shen Miao took out the scent bag she carried with her for her to smell while massaging the Baihui acupoint, Tianzhu acupoint and other acupoints on her body that helped relieve dizziness.
Seeing Shen Miao treating her mother-in-law, Yao Heng did not stand idly by, but helped the speechless woman to seek justice from the man: “Can’t you talk about it calmly? Do you have to fight with others?!”
The wretched man looked him up and down, then glanced at Shen Miao who was squatting in front of her mother-in-law, and snorted disdainfully: "Heh, who are you? Want to meddle in other people's business?"
It seemed that the man did not recognize Shen Miao and forgot that she was someone he had flirted with before.
It's no wonder. After all, creepy men are always being servile all day long. How could they remember who they harassed?
"I……"
Without waiting for Yao Heng to reveal his identity, Shen Miao raised her voice and shouted, drowning out the words he was about to say: “This is my mother, this is my sister-in-law! They overturned my stall, and it’s useless to ask them?”
Yao Heng: ???
Old woman: ???
The old woman looked at Shen Miao in bewilderment, her lips slightly parted as if she was about to say something, but after seeing Shen Miao constantly winking at her, she did not interrupt her.
Shen Miao was just worrying about how to teach this stinking rascal a lesson, but now this was a godsend opportunity!
If a bystander speaks up, it would be considered "meddling in other people's business", but if a family member speaks up, it would be considered "as it should be".
When you are out, you give yourself an identity. He has no way to prove it anyway, so you might as well use the opportunity of acting to vent your anger.
Turning his head to look at Shen Miao, Yao Heng's eyes were a little surprised, but after all, they were "good brothers and sisters" with different fathers and mothers. He didn't need to explain, just a glance, he could instantly understand what Shen Miao meant.
"Yes, yes!"
Yao Heng got into the role very quickly. After turning around again, Yao Heng straightened his back, stepped forward, and grabbed his collar fiercely: "If you don't explain clearly today, I will never let you go after pushing my mother to the ground!"
"Chong, explain clearly, okay?"
After all, he was an old hooligan. Even if the whole family was there, the man was not afraid. He pushed his hand away angrily and said, "Your wife broke my gold chain. What do you say?"
“Ah! Ahhh!”
Seeing the man swinging the broken chain in his hand, the woman hurriedly shook her head and waved her hands. Because she couldn't speak, her eyes were wet with anxiety.
She meant that she didn't break it.
With one hand on his waist, the man's nose was raised to the sky: "Aren't we family? Come on, pay me."
Yao Heng: …
Come on... I can't even help, so why should I give you money?
“No, no…”
Seeing that the mother-in-law was struggling to sit up and argue with him, Shen Miao quickly stopped her and handed the sachet to her, comforting her in a gentle voice: “Don’t worry, I’ll go talk to him.”
The moment he stood up from the ground, Shen Miao seemed to be possessed by the god of war, and walked towards him heroically and confidently.
"The bracelet is broken, right? Let me see it."
The bracelet looks golden and attractive, but after being worn by a disgusting man, it will inevitably be stained with his stench.
"Gold?"
"right."
"Jin Nen xxxx!"
Shen Miao no longer cared about being decent, and started to speak crudely, then suddenly threw the bracelet at his face: "Do you really think there is no gold in my family? If yours is made of gold, I will twist my head off and let you kick it like a ball!"
"You dare to wear a dyed iron chain and act like a grandson in public? Aren't you afraid that someone who knows the business will laugh at you and say you are a dog on a leash?"
It felt so strange to hear Shen Miao cursing, they were clearly dirty words that were unbearable to the ears, but why did it feel so good?
Watching Shen Miao teaching the man a lesson like a spinning top, Yao Heng realized at this moment that he knew little about her.
Normally she looked very well-behaved, and I thought her little mouth was as sweet as honey. Oh my god, it turned out to be fake. The opening and closing of her mouth, which was filled with poison, was enough to make people bleed from all seven orifices.
The man didn’t expect Shen Miao to see through it so quickly, and he was still trying to insist: “This, this is gold!”
"Gold you #￥%, you are a #￥%...!"
In recent years, many people in the village have made money. They are all uneducated people who don’t know anything about funds and stocks like city people do. They only know how to buy gold bracelets and gold rings to wear on their bodies.
The family also collected a lot of Wang Dongmei’s gold jewelry, and even if Shen Miao had never worn it, she could tell the authenticity by weight.
Besides, gold is actually a kind of medicinal herb. How could she, who grew up in a medical clinic, not be able to tell that this was a dyed iron chain in disguise?
Little guy, don’t think I won’t recognize you just because you put on a vest.
"What are you arguing about?!"
"Make way! Stop watching the fun and move aside!"
I don’t know which onlooker called the police. Shen Miao was cursing when she heard the police using a loudspeaker to clear the way.
When the police arrived at the stall, they saw tofu scattered all over the ground. An old lady in her sixties was leaning against an overturned tricycle, gasping for breath while holding her chest. Her "children" were standing up for her. The atmosphere at the scene was becoming increasingly tense, so the police immediately raised their loudspeakers and stopped the farce.
"Alright, alright! Stop arguing. If you have any problems, come with me to the police station to solve them. Don't delay other people's business."
When he heard about going to the police station, the man shrugged immediately, "No, no, no, it's just a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding, I can handle it myself."
"If you can handle it, will anyone call the police?"
The police grabbed the corner of his clothes, not giving him any chance to escape. "Old Xu, why do you always cause trouble every day? Is the food in the detention center so delicious?"
"No, I didn't cause any trouble." After being recognized by the police, the man's spine bent even more. "Listen to me, this is indeed a misunderstanding. It's almost resolved."
"I want to hear you say it. Let's go to the police station and talk it out."
Shen Miao: ???
Ouch?!
It turns out that this wretched man is really a seasoned veteran and has become an old acquaintance with the police!
You like to eat government food, right? Since you caused me to not eat a good steamed dumpling last time and indirectly hurt Luo Jialin, I will let you eat well for a few days this time!
*
In the police station, in the office of the chief of the serious crime squad, a man was standing obediently and being scolded by the deputy chief.
"How long have you been following this case? There has been no progress at all."
"Lack of people? Lack of money? Why don't you apply? Won't the bureau provide you with help?"
"You have to hand me something by the end of this month, at the latest, or I'll hand it over to another group!"
After all, he was a team leader, so in order to avoid losing face in front of his subordinates, Luo Jialin closed the door and lowered the blinds.
If it were someone else, he wouldn't care how long the case dragged on, as long as it was resolved in the end. But this team leader was newly promoted and had been with him for several years, so he was particularly strict with him.
After saying the ugly words, seeing the man's head lowered in shame, he wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into, Luo Jialin slowly stood up, came to his side and straightened the wrinkles on his clothes, his tone was much gentler than before, "Xiao Chen, you are the team leader now, you have to take the lead, you can't be like a team member, waiting for others to assign you tasks."
"If you have any requests, just raise them. If you have any difficulties, just tell us. Although the case belongs to your team, it is the responsibility of all of us police officers to solve it. Cheer up and don't be afraid."
The man nodded and replied solemnly: "Yes, I understand."
I continued to sit down and look through the case files when I heard a sudden cry of grief and anger from outside the door.
"Comrade police officer, you have to make the decision for us!"
"It's not easy for us to sell tofu. We earn our money through hard work, but in the end, he..."
Hiss...why does this voice sound familiar?
Standing up and walking to the window, Luo Jialin used his fingers to open the blinds a little, and following the gazes of people watching the excitement outside, he immediately saw the leading actor in the drama.
Uncle Shen's granddaughter? Shen Miao?
Why is she coming to the police station again?
In front of the desk more than ten meters away, Shen Miao wiped the tofu residue off the old woman's body while crying to the police in a hoarse voice: "To be honest, my mother's heart is not good and she can't do heavy work. I have no choice but to think of selling tofu to earn some medical expenses."
"My sister-in-law got sick when she was young and couldn't speak. I wanted to accompany my mother because I was worried about her."
"But this bastard was so good! He took advantage of my brother and I going shopping to bully my mom and sister-in-law. Look how scared my mom was, her face turned pale. Fortunately, I brought medicine with me, otherwise, otherwise..."
Just a dozen minutes ago, Shen Miao was still the little hot pepper who dared to put her hands on her hips and angrily scolded the gangsters, but now in the police station, she suddenly became a poor little girl who was bullied by the gangsters and could not even raise her head.
To be honest, Shen Miao’s acting skills are really good!
It was clearly their first meeting today, but she acted like they were a family, helping the old lady clean her clothes and stuffing paper into the woman's hands. No one could tell that she was acting.
Moreover, from the moment they entered the room until now, not only did the woman not need to speak, but the old lady next to her also did not need to start talking. She only needed to say “um, yes, that’s it” after Shen Miao finished speaking.
From time to time, they glanced at Shen Miao, whose acting skills were explosive, and all three of them had admiration for her in their eyes.
The old lady was a little moved by her acting, and her hand was shaking slightly as she held hers, because what she said was so true that she even thought she was really as miserable as she said.
On one side is a poor family that has been bullied, and on the other side is an old fox with a criminal record. Anyone would stand on the side of the former.
"Well, then she did break my bracelet, look, look." The wretched man was still trying to defend himself.
"Comrade police officer, look!"
Shen Miao was not afraid either, she took his so-called gold bracelet and pulled it gently with her fingers and it broke again, “Look, this chain is very thin, it can break by itself, why would my sister-in-law, who has no grudge against him, mess with his bracelet for no reason?”
"she……"
"Let's take a step back and say that even if it broke, you would have said something nice. You just overturned my stall. I spent the whole night making tofu. Now half of the truckload was wasted by him."
"I……"
"Oh my God, why is my life so hard? I finally wanted to make some money, but why did I run into such a black-hearted person!"
As soon as the man opened his mouth, Shen Miao would shut him up with words, not giving him a chance to quibble.
As the saying goes: The play is stolen.
If you don't rob, how can you push him to the lowest moral point?
"Alright, comrade, please stop crying," the police officer in charge of their case advised her while taking notes, "Since he knows he was wrong and is willing to pay compensation, let's discuss how much compensation to pay."
"Three dollars and sixty-five cents."
As he spoke, the man took out a few crumpled bills and a few coins from his pocket and said, "This is all the money I have in my pocket. I don't have a penny more. I'll give it all to you, okay?"
Shen Miao glanced at him with disgust, turned around and said to the policeman: “Ten dollars, not a cent less.”
"Ten dollars?!" The man's voice changed with fear.
Not only him, Yao Heng, the old lady and the woman all stared at her with wide eyes.
This is indeed a bit too much. Even if all the tofu they brought was sold, it would not be worth that much.
"You have to pay for the tofu, and the car is broken, doesn't it need to be repaired? And my mother was frightened, police officer, her face is still not recovered, should she go to the hospital soon? What if she gets sick? And my sister-in-law's clothes are in such a mess, I have to pay a few cents at least, not to mention buying her a new one."
Listening to Shen Miao asking the man for money with reason and evidence, Luo Jialin in the room couldn't help but snort and laugh.
The last time I saw her, she was still the only granddaughter of the Shen family.
He didn't even know she had a brother and sister-in-law? Even her mother looked different from the last time she saw her.
It seems that I know too little about her.
Opening the door and coming out of the house, Luo Jialin said in a serious voice towards Shen Miao: “Old Xu, are you in trouble again?”
Hearing Luo Jialin's voice, the man's head drooped even lower, but what was strange was, as a victim, why did Shen Miao's head also droop?
Seeing Luo Jialin walking towards her, Shen Miao subconsciously moved her body and turned her back to him. She was afraid that he would come over and expose her lies.
Although I had good intentions in standing up for them, it was never a good idea to pretend to be a relative and ask for money.
Stopping beside Shen Miao, Luo Jialin calmly picked up the transcript, glanced at it briefly, and laughed again.
Zhang Chuntao.
Good guy, he even gave himself a fake name.
It's fine if it's a fake name, but it's so tacky...
After closing the transcript, he skipped over Shen Miao beside him and said to the police and the man, “Well, pay the tofu first, and since the old lady is not feeling well, go to the hospital for a checkup to see if there is anything wrong.”
"You will go with them later. Let Old Xu pay for the specific cost of the examination. If you don't have money, go to his house and get it."
The man looked embarrassed: "Don't bother, I..."
Throwing the notebook heavily on the table, Luo Jialin's tone rose a few degrees: "Trouble? Now he is not feeling well. If you don't want to cause trouble, you shouldn't have made trouble then."
Since the deputy director of the police station had spoken, the man naturally didn't dare to say anything. Although going to the hospital for a check-up would definitely cost a lot of money, it was still better than being locked up in a detention center for ten days or half a month.
After saying that, Luo Jialin asked the police to accompany them to the hospital.
Shen Miao originally wanted to take the opportunity to slip away, but before she had taken a few steps, she was stopped by Luo Jialin: "Comrade Zhang Chuntao? And Comrade Zhang Heng? Don't be in a hurry to leave, come with me to the office."
Shen Miao: …
Yao Heng: …
It’s over. Looks like there’s no way to escape this lesson.
“Thank you for not exposing me in front of so many people just now.” As soon as he entered the room, Shen Miao thanked him.
"What else?"
"And more? Oh, thank you for helping my mother-in-law and that sister."
Luo Jialin poured them two glasses of water, and after they sat down, he couldn’t help but look up and glanced at Shen Miao again: “Hmm? Don’t you understand what I mean?” Pushing the water forward, Luo Jialin said again, “Tell me, why do you want to pretend to be their family members.”
Shen Miao and Yao Heng were younger than him to begin with, and he was a policeman, so how could their little tricks escape his eyes?
After looking at each other, Shen Miao sighed resignedly and took the initiative to explain the reason: "They are both soft persimmons at first glance, and the mother-in-law was so angry that she sat on the ground and couldn't get up. If I didn't help them, they would definitely be bullied to death by that gangster."
She had good intentions, of course, she also had selfish motives, but only a little, not much.
"Then how do you know he is a gangster?"
“He harassed me the last time I came to Mo Village,” Shen Miao pursed her lips, “That was the time I threw you down… I just mistook you for him.”
Luo Jialin nodded as if he understood something, and motioned for them to sit down. "Don't stand anymore. Sit down and drink some water. You must be thirsty after performing for so long."
Seeing that Luo Jialin was not angry, Shen Miao relaxed and pulled Yao Heng to sit down together.
“Yeah, I’m dying of thirst!” After drinking the water in the cup in big gulps, Shen Miao took the initiative to introduce to Yao Heng, “This is Officer Luo, the one who went to your school to attend the lecture last time. He was also the one who fished me out of the lake last time.”
Yao Heng nodded and greeted him: "Hello, Officer Luo."
Seeing that Shen Miao’s cup was empty, Luo Jialin filled her cup again: “I didn’t expect you to act so well. If I didn’t know you, I really couldn’t tell that you and that mother-in-law and daughter-in-law pair were fake.”
“So-so~”
Shen Miao pursed her lips modestly.
Soon she thought of something else, so she said to him, "By the way, don't tell my grandfather, or he will definitely blame me for meddling in other people's business again."
Shen Wanshan never wanted her to get involved in these things. If Shen Wanshan was here today, he would definitely leave after rescuing the people and would not care what would happen to them later.
"Okay, I won't tell you." Luo Jialin agreed readily. After taking a sip of water, he said, "I see that you are such a good actor, so can you do me a favor? Help me out."
"It's a small matter, no problem!"
After finishing the water in the cup again, Shen Miao looked very satisfied and asked, “Tell me, what do you need me to do?”
"It's like this. Our director is going to hold a graduation party for his child in a few days. You can go with me and pretend to be my girlfriend."
"Okay~"
Shen Miao was very experienced in this area. After all, she had played the role of Yao Heng’s girlfriend more than once. This kind of role was a piece of cake for her.
"You...are not married?" Yao Heng asked tentatively.
Luo Jialin smiled awkwardly.
Shen Miao secretly poked his arm and frantically winked at him to stop him from talking nonsense.
Not married, of course not. If I were married, would I have held it back for so long?
But when she saw Yao Heng, this reminded Shen Miao: Luo Jialin is already over 30 years old, not married and has no girlfriend, he wouldn’t... like men, right?
*
In order not to embarrass Luo Jialin when attending the entrance banquet, Shen Miao has made sufficient preparations in the past few days.
Not only did she find her most beautiful dress, she also took a good shower the day before and put on some body cream when she got up in the morning. She didn't look stunningly beautiful, but she looked fresh and sunny.
"How is it? Does this outfit look good on me?"
When Luo Jialin drove to pick her up, Shen Miao stood at the door and turned around in a circle, exuding a youthful aura that made him brighten up.
"Well, it looks good, very good," Luo Jialin praised her generously, "This dress suits your temperament very well!"
Different from those fashionable modern girls in the city, Shen Miao did not blindly pile fashion on herself, but matched many elements that suited her very well.
The light yellow floral skirt she was wearing was bought by her and Wang Dongmei in the mall last year. After returning home, she altered the waist and sewed two circles of light green lace on it. From a distance, it looked like a small daisy swaying in the wind.
She also wore two light-colored hairpins on her head, and if you got closer you could smell the scent of lotion on her body.
The only thing was the pair of small leather shoes on his feet that were a little old. The soles had been patched up again and again, and the color was a little different.
Realizing that Luo Jialin was looking at her shoes, Shen Miao awkwardly took a wrong step backwards: “We usually walk a lot, and we all like to wear cloth shoes, so I only have this pair of small leather shoes.”
"It's okay, it's still early, let's go buy a new pair."
"The little shoes are very..."
"I'll pay."
Before she even uttered the word "expensive", Luo Jialin generously dispelled her concerns.
Someone is treating me, so why refuse? It would be a shame if I didn't buy it!
"good!"
Shen Miao jumped up excitedly, wishing she could jump two meters high.
Following Luo Jialin to the city’s department store, Shen Miao sat in a women’s shoe store and tried on the various shoes displayed on the wall.
Shen Miao usually doesn't go out, so she seldom dresses up on purpose, and she didn't know that there are so many types of shoes for girls. Not only can small leather shoes be made very beautiful, but platform shoes and high heels can also be made in various styles.
While waiting for the clerk to get the shoes that matched her size, Shen Miao couldn’t help but look at the pair of patent leather red high heels on the feet of the mannequin in the window.
The heels of the high heels were very thin, making the model's legs look very slender. The light shone on the toes, reflecting bright light, just like the crystal shoes that turned Cinderella into a princess in the fairy tale.
“Would you like to try that pair?” Luo Jialin noticed Shen Miao’s look and took the initiative to ask.
“No, no,” Shen Miao quickly retracted her gaze, “This pair looks good, let’s take this pair.”
Although Luo Jialin was treating us to buy shoes, we couldn't go too far. The pair of shoes on the wall cost eighty yuan, and the pair in the window would cost hundreds of yuan. And they were worn on the mannequin's feet, so I guess they would cost two big bills.
However, Luo Jialin did not listen to her. Instead, he raised his hand and said to another clerk at the cashier: "Miss, please take out the pair in the window and try them on."
Shen Miao: ???
"No, no, no, there's really no need. I...I've never worn high heels before."
"It's okay, try it first, maybe this pair will be more suitable?"
They are worthy of being the shoes in the window. When the clerk took out the shoe box, you could clearly feel that the surface of the shoe box exuded the "smell of money".
The high heels are a standard bright red, without any other colors. Normally, leather shoes are only good-looking but not practical. They look nice but will make your feet tired when you wear them. However, the soles of this pair of high heels are made of thin cashmere, so they are very soft to step on.
Shen Miao slowly stood up from her chair, and carefully imitated the stars on TV, taking two steps back and forth.
It's a bit like walking on stilts. You always feel your body swaying from side to side, but when you shift your center of gravity to the front, it becomes more stable.
Compared to the small leather shoes I just liked, this pair of high heels is obviously more tiring to wear.
But this pair of shoes is so expensive, how could it be the shoes' fault? It must be that my feet are not well grown.
Wild boars can't eat fine bran, that's it.
Shen Miao had never worked in the fields, so her feet were naturally white and tender, which was perfect for the pair of red high heels.
"Then let's take this pair. Pack up the other pair as well." Luo Jialin took out his wallet from his pocket and prepared to pay. "How much is it in total?"
The clerk said, "That pair of shoes is eighty, this pair is four hundred and seventy."
Shen Miao: !!!
Four hundred and seven???
Is this a shoe or gold? Why not buy it and put it on an altar? !
“No, no, no, just take that pair, forget about this pair, it’s too expensive!” Shen Miao was anxious to take off the high heels on her feet, fearing that they would wear out her feet a little.
"It's okay, it's only a few hundred dollars, not expensive."
“No! I only want this pair of leather shoes,” Shen Miao refused very firmly, “If you want to buy high heels, then I won’t accompany you to the graduation banquet today.”
Seeing Shen Miao insisting like this, Luo Jialin also took a step back: “Then let’s do this, take this pair of high heels, forget about the small leather shoes.”
It's fair for everyone to take a step back.
Shen Miao then nodded reluctantly: “Okay then.”
When I went to pay the bill, another clerk who was sorting shoe boxes said enviously, "Ma'am, your husband is so good to you! This is the star model in our store, and we only have three pairs."
Madam? Sir?
Shen Miao did not explain their identities, but took his arm and leaned on his shoulder like a little bird: "Yes, my husband has always been very good to me, but he just won't change his temper and always loves to spend money recklessly."
"How can being nice to you be considered wasting money? It's because I love you and hold you dear to my heart."
If he hadn’t known that Shen Miao had studied medicine since childhood, Luo Jialin would have almost thought that she was a professional actor in a TV series.
There was no preparation, no sign, and she entered the role too quickly. Before he could react, her head came close to him.
Before he could come back to his senses, Shen Miao had already raised her head and blinked her big watery eyes: “Are you right? Husband?”
Luo Jialin: ???
What did they just say?
The word "husband" made his ears red.
Plop, plop…
Looking at his reflection in her eyes, Luo Jialin only felt a tinnitus in his ears, and the only thing he could hear was his own heartbeat.
After a long while, he swallowed hard and replied, "Uh, yes, yes..."
*
When I drove to the hotel, I saw a red banner hung at the door from afar: Warmly congratulate XXX for being admitted to XXX University with XXX scores!
Many people received the invitation, including the leaders of various police stations and many important figures in the city.
Shen Miao couldn’t recognize any of them, but seeing that they were wearing suits and their companions beside them all had very good temperaments, she guessed that they should all be people of high status.
The graduation banquet was a grand affair, with all three banquet halls on the first floor fully booked. Posters of the children who had been admitted to universities could be seen everywhere, and most of the topics that everyone talked about were related to the children.
This was the first time that Shen Miao attended such a grand occasion. Although she appeared to be smiling and polite to everyone around her, she was actually very nervous inside, fearing that they would discover that she was a "Cinderella" pretending to be a princess.
At first Shen Miao was puzzled as to why Luo Jialin would ask her to pretend to be his girlfriend, but she soon found out the reason.
"Xiao Luo, is this your girlfriend? She's so pretty."
"Well, thank you."
"It's not easy, Xiao Luo. Last time I saw you, you were still single. How come you found a girlfriend so quickly?"
"It's okay."
"Last time I said I would introduce my sister-in-law's younger sister to you, but it seems that's not necessary~"
"Yeah, yeah."
Almost every female family member who greets Luo Jialin will mention his dating life.
Shen Miao didn’t even need to ask, she could hear most of it just by listening:
Luo Jialin has been single since he joined the police department after graduation. It has been almost ten years, and there is still no woman around him. Many people want to date him, and both his superiors and subordinates have introduced him to potential partners, but he is still single.
He was not anxious, but the people around him were extremely anxious. So in order to hear less words urging marriage and love, he found Shen Miao to give him some peace of mind.
Be loyal to the people who trust you.
Shen Miao was not a vase that could only be used for appearances. In order to pretend to be more like a real person, she would take the initiative to chat with others and talk about some details of their "love".
"I met him last year... Yes, it was an accident, a complete accident... He came to our village to do some work and fainted from exhaustion. I was the one who woke him up."
"We confirmed our relationship around the end of last year. He said he wanted to give it a try, and I agreed."
"Well, I just want to keep a low profile and not let too many people know. After all, we've only been together for a short time. I want to wait until our relationship is stable before I say anything."
Shen Miao’s acting skills are great, and her storytelling skills are even better. She didn’t even need to make a draft, and she made up a sweet love story of “beauty saves hero” and then they fall in love over time.
Luo Jialin didn't need to say too much. He just needed to nod and smile, and occasionally say a few "yes, yes, um".
Shen Miao has a lively personality and can get along well with anyone, just like the salt added to the soup, which may not seem like an important seasoning, but can make the whole pot of soup more delicious.
There were a few people who were about her age, and they took the initiative to ask her where her home was, hoping to invite her out to play when they were free, but Shen Miao pushed them all to Luo Jialin, saying that she could just contact him later.
Looking at Shen Miao dancing among the flowers like a butterfly, Luo Jialin inexplicably felt soft in his heart: So this is what it feels like to have a girlfriend…
He had only seen love in others, and felt that it was something extremely precious and needed to be worked on together. It could not be maintained without patience, just like himself.
He knew that he was very busy with work and one case after another took up almost all of his energy, leaving him with very little time for love. That was why he had not chosen to fall in love. Even though there were many girls around him, he rejected them because he was afraid of wasting their youth.
Until today, after feeling the sweetness of this kind of love, I actually feel it’s pretty good?
“I’m so tired…”
On the way back in the car, Shen Miao was anxious to take off her high heels, but she was reluctant to let them leave her so quickly, so she could only rub her sore ankles and calves, "It turns out that wearing high heels is so tiring."
"Then take off your shoes and take a rest."
Looking at the vendors on the roadside who had not yet closed their stalls, Shen Miao suggested: "Uncle Luo, turn right at the next intersection and I'll treat you to some yogurt~ I know there's a shop that makes really delicious yogurt, I buy it every time I come to the city."
"Uncle Luo?"
"Um."
Shen Miao didn’t think there was anything wrong with this title, he was Qin He’s son, she called Qin He grandma, so naturally she called him uncle.
"You are younger than my dad, so I will call you uncle."
Luo Jialin: ...
He is ten years younger than Shen Shansheng, but he is only eight years older than Shen Miao.
Uncle, the more I heard it, the more awkward it felt, as if the distance between them had suddenly widened.
Not only did the name change a little too quickly, but also the tone of voice Shen Miao used when she called him, which made Luo Jialin a little unresponsive for a moment.
A few minutes ago, she had called him "Jia Lin", "Brother Lin", and "Dear", and her tone was so intimate and sweet. Although he knew it was fake, but...
If only this dream could last a little longer.
