Chapter 11 Little Bunny Hairband
Lin Yuezhen didn't take it seriously and turned away.
Xu Jiqing took off his school uniform and went to the small bathroom outside to take a shower.
The tube-shaped building is still equipped with an old-fashioned electric water heater. The water tank is not big. In the summer, several families take turns to wash their water, so it is empty at this time.
The cold water ran across the young man's handsome brow, poured down his shoulders and back, rushed across his tight and firm abdomen, and made him feel cold all over.
When I lay down on the sofa, the leather under my body was warm.
Xu Jiqing felt relaxed.
The sleepiness from a tiring day suddenly came over him, and he closed his eyes deeply.
When they lived in a shared house, they didn't even have a shower head and could only use a washbasin to collect water for washing.
He couldn't wring out the wet towel with his hands, so he hung it on the clothesline outside the window, and it was still dripping the next morning.
The old lady downstairs came up once because of this matter. Lin Yuezhen didn't want to tell outsiders about her own affairs. From then on, whenever Xu Jiqing wanted to take a shower, the woman would wait at the door and silently wring the towel for him.
The towels were not dirty.
But the mother is of the opposite sex.
He was embarrassed and couldn't help but feel disgusted with himself.
It’s good enough now.
-
On the first weekend after her rebirth, Su Xia had a completely different look.
I go to the music school when I have classes, and spend the rest of the time at home practicing the piano.
When he heard Su Xiaojuan talking about the site selection for the new factory on the phone, he jumped up and volunteered to accompany his mother to the nearby city to look at land.
On the round trip that day, Su Xia packed her small bag faster than during military training. As soon as the driver arrived, she got into the back seat, fearing that the woman would hesitate.
Looking at her daughter's bright eyes, Su Xiaojuan was speechless for a moment. "We're not going to the city this time. The suburbs are all wasteland, and there's not even McDonald's to eat at."
"I don't need anyone to accompany me. If anything happens, I can just let my uncle come with me."
Su Xia quickly expressed her loyalty, "Uncle is not as useful as me."
Su Xiaojuan raised her eyebrows.
"You said so."
Su Xia had something hidden in her heart and her palms were sweating, fearing that Su Lijun would take advantage of the opportunity and lay the foundation for committing crimes and stealing money in the future.
"When I was a kid, I would draw lots to choose a location for a shop. He would always hold me in his arms, and I would always get a good spot."
"I have a feeling that the land you choose with me this time will definitely have good feng shui. In two years, we'll move to a new house, and in three years, you'll be on the Forbes rich list."
Su Xiaojuan was amused by her and pinched her soft face.
Monday morning.
Su Lijun was originally scheduled to take Su Xia to school at 6:15, but he arrived more than half an hour early and had breakfast with the mother and daughter.
He had only taken a few sips of soy milk when he couldn't help glancing at Su Xiaojuan several times. He then spoke carefully, "I heard from the company that they've already looked at the site for the new factory."
"Just going to take a look, I haven't decided yet."
Su Xiaojuan said, "You haven't been in Jiangcheng for long. There's no need to rush out. Get familiar with the local area first."
"...a month isn't too short."
Su Lijun forced a smile, "Sis, you haven't been home for such a long time, you might still think I'm the same as before, but mom also told me last time that I've changed."
"Every boss I've ever worked with on a truck said I was reliable."
Auntie brought two bowls of Tremella soup.
Su Xia had been silent the whole time, drinking slowly with a porcelain spoon. Suddenly, she said, "Uncle is really nice."
Her expression was serious, not joking.
As if to speak up for him.
Before Su Lijun could express his gratitude, he heard the girl continue, "The driving is so stable, and the brakes are so smooth that I can't feel anything. My previous driver always made me want to vomit, but my uncle's car is more comfortable."
"I was sent to the night market when my uncle took me to piano lessons that day. There was a commotion going on, but no one dared to touch me when they saw my uncle. It would have been great if my uncle could have just sent me there."
Su Xia's voice is clear, and her tone has the innocence that is unique to her age, which is very pleasant to the ear.
She has been very obedient lately.
Su Xiaojuan was pleased with her daughter and just smiled and said, "Then ask your uncle if he is willing?"
Two pairs of similar almond-shaped eyes looked at him one after another, and no one cared about his life or death.
Su Lijun's face was extremely grim, but he had to live under someone else's roof, so he could only agree, "...I'm fine with anything."
Before he went to the city, his parents promised him that if he joined Su Xiaojuan, half of Su Xiaojuan's company would belong to him and he could choose any luxury car or house he wanted.
When it comes to doing business, no woman can be as respectable as a man like him.
How could his elder sister bear to let him suffer? He would become the second in command in a few days.
But now look, what second-in-command?
He came all the way here specifically to serve the rich young lady and act as a watchdog for Su Xiaojuan!
It was just past half past six, and the sky over the city looked as if it had been washed by the river, with a light mist.
In the past, when they were driving, Su Lijun liked to tell some novel stories to make Su Xia happy, but today he was dejected and didn't say a word.
Su Xia enjoyed the quietness and enjoyed the street scenes along the way from the back seat.
She was not worried at all that Su Lijun would run away.
Not to mention where he could find another job paying over 8,000 yuan with his resume, even if he really ran back to his hometown, she would be more than happy to let him go.
A major worry in her heart was temporarily eliminated, and Su Xia felt light all over. Even morning reading seemed a lot more lovely.
In her previous life, she was an iron-blooded top-scoring contestant. She would always rush into the teaching building as the morning reading bell sounded, and she lost countless points when she was caught.
Fast forward half an hour, there was no one inside or outside the building, and birds were chirping in the treetops.
Su Xia is so fresh.
She was prepared to be the first one in the class to arrive at school, but when she pushed the door open, she saw someone already sitting by the window.
Right next to her table.
Xu Jiqing was just like the day he transferred here.
Wearing a snow-white school uniform with the zipper zipped up to the top, he read quietly in the pale golden morning light.
There was a sound of gate opening, Xu Jiqing looked up, and his light brown eyes looked over.
It would have been fine if there were other people around, but now there were only the two of them in the classroom. Su Xia gripped the door handle nervously, trying hard to resist the urge to turn around and leave.
She swallowed, "You... saw me?"
…
Su Xia wished she could bury herself.
It's not a female ghost.
There is more than a hundred pounds lying here, and the fact that you can see it only means that you are not blind.
She was so embarrassed that her ears turned red, but Xu Jiqing withdrew his gaze and said "hmm" in a very light tone.
I saw it before I entered the classroom.
Outside the window is a shortcut from the school gate. There are several stuffed dolls hanging on the girl's schoolbag. Her footsteps are cheerful, and the little rabbit hairband tied on her ponytail is jumping along with her.
He had never seen a girl like this.
I was so sleepy that I couldn't open my eyes during class, but after the weekend, I seemed to be so happy about going to school that I flew into this dull classroom like a chubby little bird.
After seeing him, I felt a little depressed.
As Xu Jiqing was thinking this, the wilted little bird slowly moved over and landed beside him.
The girl's fragrance wafted over.
He slowed his breathing and turned his face away imperceptibly.
Su Xia put her schoolbag at her feet, not in a hurry to take out her textbook. She kept her hands on her school uniform skirt for a long time and called him softly, "Xu Jiqing."
The boy didn't look back, his long, straight eyelashes drooped as he stared intently at the vocabulary book in front of him.
Su Xia was not annoyed and looked down at his hand.
This was the experience she gained in her previous life.
Xu Jiqing doesn't like to talk to people when he is doing things.
Another meaning of not liking to talk to people is that as long as she doesn't find it boring to play alone, he won't stop her from doing anything.
Outside the cuff, the wound on the back of the boy's hand has healed a little, probably because he applied medicine. It is not as scary as before.
Su Xia watched intently, remembering the precautions for burn recovery she had heard in the pharmacy that day, and frowned slightly, "Are you still in pain? Why don't you put on a dressing?"
She pondered for a long time and finally found an explanation for his silence.
"...You don't know how to use it?"
"It's okay, I—"
The boy's eyes were calm and he waited for her to finish speaking without any emotion.
Just being looked at like this, the words "I'll teach you" were swallowed down in her throat.
Be a good person to the end and see the end.
But Xu Jiqing clearly looked impatient with being disturbed during his morning reading. He must have been annoyed to death by her.
A breeze blew by, and the vines and leaves outside the window rustled, stirring up deep and shallow green waves.
No one had come into the classroom yet, and it was so quiet that only the sound of the wind could be heard.
Xu Jiqing raised her eyes and finished the rest of her sentence, "Can you help me put it on?"
