As soon as Ye Mingxi left, Du Peng walked forward nervously and carefully held Xiao Du for examination.
Li Xin sent Ye Mingxi out of the research institute, and when he came back he saw Du Peng squatting in the corner, checking almost every inch of Xiao Du's body.
Li Xin: “…”
It's not necessary to be this nervous, right?
When he thought about how he had been staring at Ye Mingxi just now, he felt that Du Peng really treated Xiao Du as his own son, even more so than his own son Du Zhenguo!
I wonder what little boy Zhenguo felt when he saw this scene?
"Comrade Lao Du, this is a robot made of metal, not some fragile glass. It won't break if you play with it a few times." Li Xin walked forward and patted Du Peng on the shoulder, indicating that he didn't need to worry so much.
Du Peng not only checked the outside, but also seemed to want to take it apart to check.
"No... Mingxi just touched Xiaodu, there's no need to take them apart!" Li Xin quickly stopped Du Peng's actions.
"No, no, no, you don't understand! It was because of her that it was possible that it was broken." Du Peng shook his head and spoke firmly.
Li Xin: “???”
What does it mean?
I don't quite understand why Du Peng said that.
"You don't know, Ye Mingxi was very naughty when she was little. Old Commander Ye brought her to my house to play. Her personality was just like a boy... no, she was even naughtier than a boy. She loved to take things apart. She took apart so many of my models back then." Du Peng still felt a pang of pain when he thought of that pile of pitiful models. "She was the only girl in the whole compound who would fight with boys!"
When talking about the past, Du Peng felt so angry that his teeth itched. No wonder he kept staring at Ye Mingxi today.
"Ah...wasn't it a fight with He Beichen?"
"Of course I have fought before."
Li Xin: “…”
No wonder He Beichen didn't treat her as a girl. Could it be that they became brothers?
"When we talk about her, she apologizes very quickly, saying she would help put it back together. But it only makes things worse. Few models can be restored after she's put them together. She's a model killer!" Du Peng said with gritted teeth. It happened so long ago, but he still remembers it vividly.
"..." Li Xin was silent. He had not expected that Ye Mingxi had such a side to him. Suddenly, he felt that it was a bit hasty to agree to let Ye Mingxi and Xiao Du play.
"Well, let me take a look too." Li Xin was silent for a while, and squatted beside Du Peng. The two of them held little Du and checked him from top to bottom and from left to right.
Xiao Du, who was tossed around, said: "..."
It really will thank you!
…
In the evening, He Beichen came to pick up Li Xin and take them home together.
"At noon today, Mingxi came to the research institute with Xiaodu to play. I asked her to come home for dinner in the evening. Why don't you cook some more food later?" Li Xin said to He Beichen.
After she changed her shoes after entering the door, she found a pair of slippers and placed them at the door, ready for Ye Mingxi.
"OK."
Last time at the clinic, He Beichen knew that Li Xin and Ye Mingxi had a good relationship, and he also said that he wanted Ye Mingxi to come home for dinner, so he had no objection.
He Beichen walked into the kitchen, added some more rice, and took out meat and fish, preparing to make another dish.
He and Ye Mingxi grew up together in the staff housing compound, so he knew what Ye Mingxi liked to eat. He would prepare what was available at home, and would not buy what was not available. He would just eat whatever was available.
Li Xin did not go into the kitchen to help wash the vegetables today. He simply tidied up the living room outside and waited for Ye Mingxi to come.
After get off work, Ye Mingxi did not come to her house directly, but went back to her own home first and got a can of tea from home before coming over.
After all, you are visiting someone's home, so you can't come empty-handed.
How rude!
"I asked you to come over for dinner, why did you bring anything with you?" Li Xin looked at her handing over the food and said with some blame.
It's a bit too polite to just come when you are here, but it's a bit too polite to bring things with you.
"Hehe~" Ye Mingxi smiled at Li Xin and motioned her to take it quickly: "I took my grandfather's. This is the most he has, and he can't finish it."
She didn't feel awkward. She looked at the slippers prepared at the door, put them on and walked in.
"We have tea leaves at home too. Grandpa gave it to us last time." Li Xin accepted it and complained to Ye Mingxi with a smile, "Because when he came here the last time, he thought the tea leaves at home were not tasty."
Mr. He is old and has no other hobbies except drinking tea.
"Just like my grandfather, he is very particular about tea, but I can't taste it, I feel they are all the same." Ye Mingxi nodded, indicating that young people don't quite understand this.
Li Xin poured her a cup of hot water, and Ye Mingxi drank it while observing their house.
"The house He Beichen got is better than the one I got. Mine is not this big." Ye Mingxi looked at it with a little envy.
However, she has always lived with her grandfather and has not moved into the house allocated by the army.
"Eh? By the way, where's Beichen?"
When I arrived, I only saw Li Xin greeting me. What about He Beichen?
Instead, I only heard a sound coming from not far away.
As Ye Mingxi spoke, she followed the noise and walked to the kitchen.
In the kitchen, the tall and strong He Beichen stood in front of the stove and felt that the originally spacious kitchen had become a little small.
But he was cutting vegetables inside and was not affected by the noise coming from outside. The ingredients were almost prepared and he would be able to start cooking soon.
"Oh, he can cook?" Ye Mingxi was shocked.
