Whether the neighbors in the tube-shaped building have good relations at ordinary times is just superficial, but on a day like this, of course everyone has to go, and even those who usually gossip about each other have to go and drink in the wedding wine with the host.
Isn’t that what neighborhood relationships are all about?
Lin Cuiping was not very happy: "I really shouldn't have gone to Jingbei. I actually had to follow Hongbo twice!"
Xie Yunshu rolled his eyes at her: "Who asked you to take the red lipstick? I didn't ask for it."
"Really?" Lin Cuiping laughed and immediately stuffed the money back into her pocket: "If you don't want it, I won't give it to you."
"What a prospect!" Xie Yunshu glared at her. There was nothing to do that day, so she just sat down to eat.
Tian Hao came naturally as well. He sat at the table next to Lin Cuiping. He couldn't help but look at Lin Cuiping more. He wanted to talk to her but didn't know how to start.
Lin Cuiping smiled at him and said, "Manager Tian, would you like to have two red envelopes as well?"
It was still the same tone, but Tian Hao felt uncomfortable when he heard it. He pursed his lower lip and asked, "You didn't go to the cafeteria these two days?"
Lin Cuiping hummed: "The new hotel is about to open, I have to go there every day."
"You won't go in the future?" Tian Hao felt that his tone was wrong, and explained insincerely: "I think we are still friends, there is no need for you to hide from me."
Lin Cuiping looked at him speechlessly: "What are you thinking? Why should I hide from you?"
He doesn't dislike her, nor does he do anything wrong to her, so why should she hide from him?
Tian Hao didn't know whether he should be relieved or hold his breath. He was afraid that because she liked him, they couldn't even be friends. If she really didn't care, he thought her love was just that.
"That's good." Tian Hao smiled. He looked around and said, "There are many neighbors here today. I'll borrow the company's car to take you home later. That way you can feel proud of yourself."
He still remembered how happy she was last time when they pretended to be a couple.
Lin Cuiping smiled and said, "No need to. No one dares to laugh at me now. They are too busy trying to curry favor with me."
The new hotel is about to open, and it will certainly need to recruit people to work. Now the efficiency of the decoration factory is getting worse day by day, and it can hardly pay the wages. However, Lin Cuiping's salary is getting higher day by day.
Moreover, Xie Yunshu specifically said at her doorstep that she was now the hotel manager, and all hiring decisions were made by her, Lin Cuiping.
Now, those aunts and uncles would smile like flowers when they saw her, and some would secretly give her gifts. She was thinking about whether she could work as a dishwasher in the new restaurant. It didn't matter how much the salary was, at least she could help support the family.
She doesn't need a man to give her some confidence. Isn't Xie Yunshu giving it to her?
Of course, Lin Cuiping felt that it was because of her own efforts. She was much better than Xie Yunshu in managing this group of old women.
Tian Hao hummed: "That's good."
He paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Then I can drive you back. Don't you like riding in a car very much? As a friend, can't I satisfy your wish?"
They had clearly returned to being ordinary friends, but something had happened between them, as if they were speaking to each other more unfamiliarly. Tian Hao was eager to break this unfamiliarity and wanted to be like him before, playing and joking with her, or even teasing each other.
Lin Cuiping looked at him strangely, not knowing what he meant, but still refused: "No, I have to go to the new hotel with Shanchuan in the afternoon!"
Song Shanchuan came every day naturally. He sat on the right side of Lin Cuiping, as quiet as a mountain. Of course, he himself could not speak, except for occasionally making small gestures with Lin Cuiping, and did not communicate with anyone.
Tian Hao's eyes fell on him. He lowered his head and put a piece of steamed fish in the bowl. His slender fingers gently and carefully peeled out the bones of the fish one by one, and then skillfully and naturally put it in the bowl in front of Lin Cuiping.
While Lin Cuiping was talking to him, she picked up the piece of fish and put it directly into her mouth without even looking at it, and she didn't forget to mutter, "Song Shanchuan, it's not as delicious as yours."
Song Shanchuan smiled and continued to pick out the fish bones, while Lin Cuiping just waited.
It was hard to explain what was wrong with that atmosphere, it was just wrong. It was a tacit understanding that no one else could interfere with, and it was the trust that Lin Cuiping had never given to anyone.
Tian Hao's heart felt a slight prick of pain, which soon disappeared...
He smiled and suddenly changed the subject: "When you're done, let's go out for dinner. How about I introduce you to a friend? You like students, but my friend is also a student, and he's very strong."
He is not suitable, and Song Shanchuan is even less suitable.
He thought it was unrealistic for Lin Cuiping to be with him, and she should deserve a better man.
Sure enough, after he said this, Song Shanchuan paused in peeling the fish bones, and after a while he put the piece of fish into Lin Cuiping's bowl.
The smile on Lin Cuiping's face faded a lot: "What do you mean?"
Tian Hao shrugged his shoulders pretending to be relaxed: "We are friends after all, so it's normal for me to introduce you to someone. As the saying goes, good things should be kept within the family. You are such a good girl, and my friend is also very good. I think you two are a good match."
Of course she knew that she was a very good girl, but he didn't like her, right? In fact, deep down he looked down on her.
Lin Cuiping appeared to be smiling, but in fact she was clearer than anyone else in her heart. She still felt a little sad because of Tian Hao's words.
He knew clearly that she liked him, yet he still casually mentioned introducing her to someone.
Is he so afraid that she would like him and cling to him?
Lin Cuiping never does such nympho things!
"No need. I don't want to date right now." Lin Cuiping's voice was a little cold: "The new hotel is about to open, and I'm very busy."
Tian Hao was talking to Lin Cuiping, but his eyes were on Song Shanchuan: "Why? Just to get to know her first. It won't interfere with your work."
Lin Cuiping paused as she was about to pick up the fish with her chopsticks. Finally, she couldn't help but frown and said, "I said I don't want to know you!"
She was no longer in the mood to eat fish, but just fiddled with it unconsciously.
Song Shanchuan's eyes were dark. He couldn't speak, and he wasn't in a position to speak.
Tian Haoxin heaved a sigh of relief. As if confirming something, the smile on his face became more and more intense. "Okay, then we'll meet again. Where is your new restaurant? On the day of the opening, I'll bring some friends over to support you."
She was angry because he wanted to introduce someone to her, so her love was not so short-lived.
Lin Cuiping didn't even want to pretend: "No, our business is very good, we don't need Manager Tian to come and support us."
The more she said sarcastic, the more relieved Tian Hao felt, and his temper improved a lot: "I said something wrong, but it's okay, right? Consider it my apology, and I'll lend you that camera to play with for two days."
