It's normal to be so secretive and gossipy
Huang Yiji looked particularly energetic when he returned to work in the afternoon. The "office smell" on him seemed to have dissipated, and even his colleagues noticed his changes.
"Dude, you have good news, why are you so happy?"
"There's no happy event at all. Isn't it okay for me to just be in a good mood today?" Huang Yiji's mouth was almost broken by laughter, but he still refused to admit it. Helplessly, his colleagues did not ask any further questions.
After get off work, Huang Yiji went to the coffee shop specifically hoping to meet Liang Yi, but he didn't expect that she had already left, so he had to return to the parking lot and drive home.
Liang Yi got off work very early today because Zhou Yiting's mother invited her to have dinner at her home, so she went there early.
The house Liang Yi lives in now belongs to Zhou Yiting's family. When she first came to Guangdong, she couldn't find a suitable house. She happened to meet Zhou Yiting. After getting to know each other, they decided to reach an agreement on leasing. Zhou Yiting's parents also often invite Liang Yi to their home for dinner.
The four of them sat at the dinner table like a family. Zhou Yiting's mother kept putting food into Liang Yi's bowl.
"Ayi, please eat more. You must not eat well if you live alone. Don't be polite here with your aunt."
"Okay, okay, thank you, Auntie. You don't have to serve me any more. Just eat more yourself."
Liang Yi replied politely. Zhou Yiting beside her chuckled and whispered, "Eat more, Ayi."
Liang Yi gave her a helpless look.
After cleaning up after dinner, they all sat in the living room as usual. Zhou Yiting's parents also went for a walk as usual, leaving the empty living room with only the two of them.
In fact, it was not quiet, because Zhou Yiting was talking to her boyfriend on the phone, and Liang Yi was sitting next to her like a light bulb. Even though the TV was playing, it couldn't cover up their annoying voices.
Zhou Yiting and her boyfriend met in high school and didn't start dating until they entered college. However, one of them studied in Sichuan and the other stayed in Guangdong, but they were able to survive four years of long-distance relationship. Liang Yi admired her very much, but she also wondered why they hadn't gotten married after dating for so long.
"Liang Yi, you're already 27 and you're not planning on finding a boyfriend? Your life is a bit too monotonous."
Zhou Yiting's sudden call made Liang Yi realize that she was distracted.
“I didn’t plan to do that, but…”
"Do you have a target?" Sure enough, Zhou Yiting always gets the gossip quickly.
"He's my target, but I'm not sure if I'm his target. We're just in the initial stages of getting to know each other."
Liang Yi recalled her experience with Huang Yiji. Maybe it was possible, but it was hard to say whether they were just getting along as friends.
"That's possible. How come I don't know where you met? Where is he from..."
"Stop, stop, stop. I can't answer so many questions at once. We just happened to notice that we'd run into each other at the gym and the cafe, and we had an impression of each other, so we added each other's information. We only know each other's names, and we haven't shared any other information."
Liang Yi interrupted Zhou Yiting's chattering.
"Then who took the initiative?"
Only Zhou Yiting can have such a unique focus.
"Of course it was me. I was thinking of a fragment for a novel at the time, so I thought I'd try it myself. I didn't expect it to be so successful, so I added it in."
Liang Yi explained patiently.
"That……"
"What are you guys talking about? It's so lively."
Before Zhou Yiting could finish her question, her parents came back. In order to protect Liang Yi from being questioned by the older generation, she had to change the subject.
"No, no, I was just asking about the recent sales of my cafe." It was an obviously perfunctory answer.
"You little girl." Zhou Yiting's mother also knew that her daughter was just trying to fool her, so she could only roll her eyes at her.
The topic ended and neither of them mentioned it again. It was almost nine o'clock and Liang Yi should go home. After saying goodbye to Zhou Yiting and her parents, she took the subway home.
