Chapter 395 The Little Trickster
Xia Qingxi walked over and opened the door, and saw Huo Xiaoling standing there holding a paper bag, calling her affectionately:
"Sister Qingxi."
"Xiaoling." Xia Qingxi looked at her with some doubts, then let her into the house and asked:
"What's the matter?"
After Huo Xiaoling came in, she gently closed the door, and smiled heartlessly as before, and handed the paper bag in her hand to her:
"Sister Qingxi, I just received dried longans sent from my hometown, and gave a bag to Sister Yunxiang. She asked me to send this bag to you."
Xia Qingxi hesitated, thinking about whether to accept it. If it was an expensive item, she would definitely not accept it, but now it was just a bag of longans, and if she didn't accept it, it would seem unkind.
"Sister Qingxi, don't be polite. This is not worth any money, so just take it." Huo Xiaoling said as she stuffed the longan directly into Xia Qingxi's hand, and then continued:
"In the past, you, Sister Yunxiang, and the three of us lived in the same dormitory. You helped me a lot, and when I injured my foot, it was you who took me to the hospital. I have all this in my heart, and I will definitely repay you when I have the chance in the future."
"It's just a small favor, you don't have to remember it deliberately, and you don't have to repay me." Xia Qingxi said as she put the paper bag on the table.
"Well, I know you are a good person. You treat me well without asking me to repay you." Huo Xiaoling continued seriously:
"But Sister Yunxiang said that people should be grateful, so she asked me to send you a bag too." At this point, she suddenly lowered her head and continued with some embarrassment:
"I came from a small mountain village. Longan is not a rare thing, but it is particularly good for replenishing qi and blood. My mother picked it from the tree at home, one by one. Don't dislike it."
"No, I also came from the countryside. If you want to give me other things, I won't accept them." Xia Qingling comforted her.
"You also came from the countryside?" Huo Xiaoling seemed very surprised.
She really didn't expect Xia Qingling to be from the countryside. After all, the way she dressed, the way she talked, and the way she played the piano were so good, she didn't look like a rural person at all.
After being surprised, she hurriedly said,
"We are so lucky to be able to join the army. In our village, almost everyone my age is married.
In fact, my family conditions are not good at all. My father passed away when I was ten years old. My mother worked hard to raise my brother and me and became ill. I just thought that I would have a promising future and be filial to her."
When Huo Xiaoling said this, tears flowed unconsciously and she looked very sad.
Xia Qingxi didn't expect her to burst into tears suddenly. She walked over, raised her hand and patted her shoulder, and said softly:
"Okay, don't cry. You should work hard. There will be plenty of opportunities to be filial to her in the future."
Huo Xiaoling quickly stopped crying, wiped her eyes with her sleeves, and smiled again. She said apologetically:
"Sorry, Sister Qingxi, I lost my temper. I just missed my mother too much and couldn't help it."
"It's okay." Xia Qingxi smiled, indicating that she didn't care.
"Hehe, I'm still used to calling you Sister Qingxi. Sister Yunxiang said that she would change her name to call you teacher and not make special arrangements for you, but I think this is more intimate. In my heart, you and Sister Yunxiang are both my nobles and relatives."
Huo Xiaoling looked at Xia Qingxi with her innocent big eyes and said.
Xia Qingxiang hesitated for a moment, but still said to Huo Xiaoling:
"Yunxiang is right. I am indeed a teacher in the art troupe now. I don't ask for special treatment. It's good for both you and me."
The smile on Huo Xiaoling's face obviously froze for a moment, and then she replied apologetically:
"Oh, I see. I didn't think it through. I will call you Teacher Xia from now on." After saying this, she quickly added:
"But in my heart, you will always be my Sister Qingxiang."
Xia Qingxiang smiled slightly and said nothing more. When Huo Xiaoling left, she took a handful of White Rabbit milk candies and gave them to her as a return gift for her Guiyuan.
Huo Xiaoling refused to accept the candy at first, but Xia Qingying said that if she didn't accept it, she wouldn't want the candy herself. In the end, Huo Xiaoling had no choice but to accept it and left happily with the candy.
Looking at Huo Xiaoling's back, Xia Qingying returned to the room thoughtfully. She hoped that Huo Xiaoling came here just to give her the candy without any other purpose.
But reason told her that Huo Xiaoling was not as simple as she appeared. Giving her the candy was just an excuse, and her real purpose was to complain to her.
Why did she go to such great lengths to complain to her? Of course, she hoped that she would sympathize with her and give her some friendship points when selecting piano students.
Huo Xiaoling is undoubtedly not stupid, and she is even a little smart, but she used it in the wrong place and on the wrong person.
Xia Qingying would not open a back door for anyone, not even Mo Ya, because she is responsible to her students and herself.
After all, they will not be examined by one person in the future, but will be on the stage and examined by everyone.
After work in the afternoon, Xia Qingying returned home and told Lu Jingchen that she would go to the city to receive the award next week. After listening to it, Lu Jingchen did not show any surprise and was very calm.
"Aren't you surprised?" Xia Qingying asked doubtfully.
"What's the surprise?" Lu Jingchen looked at her and replied in a deep voice:
"After all, you can play the piano so well, it's not surprising that you won the award for painting."
Xia Qingli felt a little guilty after listening to his explanation. There were indeed too many things about her that were not in line with common sense. If her political review materials were not problematic, she might even be regarded as a spy who used someone else's identity.
"You know, I have a good talent and learn everything very quickly." Xia Qingli said with a smile, then suddenly turned and went into the room, picked up a paper bag from the bed, and handed it to Lu Jingchen as a treasure after coming out.
"What?" Lu Jingchen asked in confusion.
Xia Qingxi signaled him to open it with her eyes. After Lu Jingchen opened it, he found that it was a set of long-sleeved and long pants of the same color as Xia Qingxi's pajamas.
"Couple outfits." Xia Qingxi leaned close to Lu Jingchen's ear and whispered.
Her voice was soft and soft, with the warmth of her breath, lingering in Lu Jingchen's ears, as if it was carrying some kind of temptation, making people addicted.
And the three words "couple outfits" seemed to have a special interest, which made people think about it.
While Lu Jingchen was stunned, Xia Qingli had already taken out the clothes from the paper bag and compared them on Lu Jingchen, as if she was talking to herself, or as if she was saying to Lu Jingchen:
"It should fit you. It's cold now, and this light long-sleeved trousers are just right for this temperature."
As a fashion designer, her eyes are her ruler. Moreover, she knows his figure inside and out, and it is impossible for her to make a mistake.
Lu Jingchen took the clothes from her hand and said,
"I'm going to take a shower now." After that, he went straight to the bathroom.
