Chapter 462 Got Caught
The first time Dongzhe held Xiaoting’s hand was at Tingyu Pavilion in the Humble Administrator’s Garden.
Xiaoting saw it raining the day before and said that if it rained again tomorrow she would like to go to the Humble Administrator's Garden to watch the rain.
As expected, it rained lightly the next day, and the two got up early to go to Tingyuxuan to watch the rain.
He doesn't care that his pants and sleeves are half wet.
Xiaoting looked up at the green bamboo leaves.
Dongzhe looks at Xiaoting.
In the misty rain, Xiaoting's face had a special soft and watery glow, which was very beautiful.
There were not many visitors in the garden at this time, and there were only the two of them in Tingyuxuan.
"It's so cool!" Xiaoting said softly.
"Is it cold?" Dongzhe asked her.
Xiaoting leaned forward slightly on the wooden porch chair with her hands and shook her head.
Dongzhe looked down at the position of Xiaoting's hand, slowly moved his hand, and then gently covered the back of her hand.
The back of the hand is slightly cool.
Xiaoting didn't look back, but turned her palm over and interlocked her fingers with Dongzhe's.
The warmth from Dongzhe's hand flowed into her palm, dissipating the slight chill.
Later, they came to Shanghai to study. At school, they didn’t dare to hold hands, and only touched each other lightly occasionally.
At this moment, no one recognized them in Chunying Shopping Mall, so they walked hand in hand openly.
They were originally planning to go to the movies, but tickets for the movie Xiaoting wanted to see were not available until 1:30 p.m., so the two of them went to a newly opened shopping mall nearby to kill time.
As I was walking around, I started to feel like a researcher.
"The things there are generally more expensive than Yuesheng's. This one is only three cents more expensive!" Dongzhe said as he walked around.
"The location is different! After all, this is the main street in the city center, so the rent is more expensive, which is understandable." Xiao Ting took a look and felt that three cents was not so bad.
"Tsk tsk tsk, this is outrageous! It's more expensive than the ones in state-owned department stores. Who would buy it?" Dongzhe pointed to another item.
"This is a scarce product. State-owned stores don't stock it every day, so you have to wait. That's why the boss of this department store raised the price of these products. The chocolate with the liqueur filling and the diamond brooch are all of that."
"This thing is so hidden that I can't even find it, or..."
The two were complaining when a sudden roar came from behind:
"Lin Dongzhe!"
Dongzhe didn't know what he was afraid of, and quickly let go of Xiaoting's hand. When they turned around, they saw Hongbin running towards them.
“You…you!”
Hongbin didn't know how to start.
At first glance, he thought he was seeing things, so he looked a few more times to make sure that the two people he saw were Dongzhe and Xiaoting holding hands intimately, and then he caught up with them.
"Brother Bin...why are you here!" Dongzhe looked shocked.
He was really speechless. Shanghai is such a big city, and there were only two acquaintances there. How could they meet so easily?
"Come with me!" Hong Bin saw people coming and going, so he called out to the two of them.
The two looked at each other and followed Hong Bin out of the mall obediently.
Bad news, I got caught.
Good news, it’s Brother Hongbin.
There was an open space outside the mall. Hong Bin was very angry, but when the cold wind blew, he turned around and waved his hand, asking his brother and sister-in-law to stand behind the billboard against the wall. He stood in front of his brother and sister-in-law, blocking all the cold wind for them.
"Dongzhe, you, you are Xiaoting's brother!" He was still in shock.
"Brother Bin, when has she ever called me brother since she was a child? She always called me Lin Dongzhe." Dongzhe said helplessly.
Hong Bin thought about it and realized that this was true. He then asked, "When did this happen?"
"Brother, don't tell mom and the others yet! We will tell them when the time comes." Xiaoting stepped forward and tugged at Hongbin's sleeve.
"You are really amazing. You didn't tell anyone else and you managed to hide it from Aunt Huang. I have to admit that you are amazing." Hong Bin was a little impressed by the two of them for a moment.
"We...are hidden...If we hadn't held hands just now, you wouldn't find it strange, right?" Dongzhe continued to explain.
"You, you kid!" Hong Bin rubbed his forehead.
The good sister was taken away by a pig, and it was a very familiar pig.
"You, have you thought it through? This is not a trivial matter and cannot be treated lightly!" Hong Bin looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to them, so he asked in a serious tone.
"Brother, I've made up my mind. I made up my mind a long time ago. I don't want anyone else but Xiaoting. If I have any second thoughts, you can beat me!" Dongzhe answered without thinking.
Hongbin got Dongzhe's answer and looked at Xiaoting again. Xiaoting pursed her lips and nodded at him.
At this moment, Hongbin's mind was working rapidly, thinking about how to deal with this matter.
"Brother, please don't tell the elders yet. Let's talk about it after we graduate, okay?" Dongzhe pleaded again.
Hong Bin stood there thinking for a while before he answered:
"I won't tell you, but you have to study hard and don't do anything out of line!"
Hongbin decided to agree first and then see how the situation develops.
"Of course not, brother, I promise." Dongzhe agreed immediately.
Hong Bin wanted to say something when he heard He Lebang calling him:
"Hongbin, you came out before us!"
"Ah!" Hong Bin turned around and blocked the two kids behind him.
But He Lebang still saw it, so he asked: "Your friend"
Seeing that they had been seen, Hong Bin introduced them: "My brother and sister."
"No wonder you ran so fast just now, you must have seen your younger brothers and sisters!" He Lebang said with a smile.
"Xiaoting, Dongzhe, these are my colleagues."
Xiaoting and Dongzhe stood up and greeted everyone: "Hello, brothers and sisters."
Dongzhe saw that this was a good time to run away and said hurriedly, "Brother, go play with your colleagues! We're going back to school."
"Okay, do you have enough money for the bus?"
"Yes, brother." Xiaoting nodded.
"Dongzhe, button up your coat. It's windy! It's cold these two days. Don't run around outside. Prepare well for the final exam." Hongbin instructed again.
"I understand, brother." Dongzhe nodded obediently.
The two said goodbye to everyone else and walked side by side to the bus stop.
"Hongbin, I haven't noticed you yet, why are you being so nagging?" He Lebang nudged Hongbin with his elbow.
Hongbin smiled and didn't say anything back.
"You don't know this, but this is a caring person, you know! Whoever marries our Comrade Hongbin in the future will enjoy a happy life!" Liao Yazhen said with a smile.
"Sister Yazhen, stop joking." Hongbin smiled gently.
"Let's go! Let's go eat. I just found a table." He Lebang said to everyone.
"Let's go, let's go, I'm hungry after shopping!" Liao Yazhen replied.
Several people bought some things. Liao Yazhen bought the most, and her things were now being carried by He Lebang.
Hongbin probably knew that He Lebang had set his sights on Liao Yazhen.
Everyone followed He Lebang to the restaurant.
At this time, Zheng Shuyun walked up to Hongbin and asked in a low voice: "Comrade Zhuang, didn't you want to buy something for your sister-in-law? Why did you let them leave empty-handed?"
"Oh... I just took a look, and the ones in this mall are not as good as those in Yuesheng Department Store. I will go to Yuesheng Department Store next weekend to buy some and send them to them. Yuesheng and their school are on the same street, which is perfect," Hongbin answered honestly.
"Oh." Zheng Shuyun nodded.
"You didn't buy anything," Hongbin said, looking at her empty hands.
"There was nothing suitable, so I didn't buy it." Zheng Shuyun shook her head slightly.
