Chapter 57: Yes, I am starting to like you
“No!”
Song Lehan puffed up his cheeks, "Not at all!"
"Didn't you say you'd ignore me?" Xu Jiangcuo glanced at Song Lehan in the mirror, "Can't you help it now?"
The sound was so mean that Song Lehan just wanted to punch him hard.
After enduring it again and again, Song Lehan gritted his teeth and said, "Xu Jiangcuo, has anyone told you that you shouldn't be so rude when you talk?"
Her tone didn't sound like she was joking.
Xu Jiangcuo pursed his lips tightly and admitted his mistake very quickly, "I was wrong, don't be angry."
Song Lehan secretly rolled his eyes at him and unilaterally started a cold war with him.
"Are you really ignoring me?" Xu Jiangcuo began to test.
Song Lehan: "Yeah."
Xu Jiangcuo smiled, knowing that she was not serious, and felt relieved.
After a while, the two arrived home.
"I'm going to get something. You stay home first. I'll be back soon."
Xu Jiangcuo instructed Song Lehan, waited for her to get off the car, and then rode away on his motorcycle.
I don’t know where to go.
Song Lehan turned around and prepared to wash the clothes she had just taken off. Then, she called her mother.
There has been no video call for a long time, and she misses her mother a little.
Near noon, Xu Jiangcuo returned home dragging a bag of lime.
"Song Lehan?" he shouted in the yard.
People walked around for a while but didn't see her.
"what!"
Song Lehan came out of the kitchen quietly, still holding a kitchen knife in his hand, his face frowning with some displeasure, "You're back pretty quickly. I haven't even had lunch yet."
It can be heard that Song Lehan thinks Xu Jiangcuo came back too late.
"I originally wanted to get a bag of lime from Uncle Zhou, but he was out of it, so I went to town and bought another one." Xu Jiangcuo explained patiently. Seeing the kitchen knife in her hand, he smiled and asked, "What are you going to cook for me?"
Song Lehan's expression softened, but his tone was still harsh, "Just make whatever you want to eat."
After saying that, she turned back to the kitchen and silently added some noodles to the pot.
Xu Jiangcuo thought she really couldn't make her own portion, so he followed her in fear and happened to see Song Lehan adding noodles through the window.
My heart feels warm.
He grinned, revealing a silly smile.
How could she ignore him!
Thinking of Song Lehan’s blushing face in the rearview mirror, Xu Jiangcuo felt as happy as if he had discovered a new world.
It turns out that she can be shy, angry, and hard on the outside but soft on the inside.
Unconsciously, he was slowly getting to know the real and different her.
Half an hour later.
Song Lehan brought the food to the dining table and looked into the yard, but Xu Jiangcuo was gone again.
She frowned, her anger on the verge of exploding.
"Xu Jiangcuo!" She called out his name as she walked into the yard.
The next second, there was a response.
"I'm here!"
Xu Jiangcuo stepped on the ladder and said as he blocked the hole, "I'm in the house and will fix it soon."
The anger was extinguished.
Following the sound, Song Lehan walked to the door of the house.
She saw Xu Jiangcuo struggling to plug the holes with cement, looking up and patching it for a while, and finally putting his hands down. Only after making sure that the cement would not fall off did he breathe a sigh of relief.
When he turned around, Xu Jiangcuo saw Song Lehan standing at the door, and he laughed out loud before he said anything.
"It's fixed. After dinner, I'll clean up the dust in the house." Xu Jiangcuo got down from the ladder and walked towards Song Lehan. "The door probably won't be fixed until tomorrow. Maybe you'll have to sleep in my room tonight."
Song Lehan glanced at the kicked-in door and said nothing.
"You don't mind, do you?" After asking, Xu Jiangcuo curled his lips and shrugged, "Even if you mind, there's nothing I can do. Now only my room can lock the door."
Song Lehan rolled his eyes at him and said, "I didn't say I dislike you."
"As long as you don't mind." Xu Jiangcuo put down the tools in his hand and patted the dust off his hands.
Song Lehan made way, tactfully brought him a basin of water, and ordered, "Wash yourself clean, and then come and eat."
Xu Jiangcuo: "Okay, okay."
He washed his hands carefully, dried them, and went to the dining table.
"Cold noodles?" Xu Jiangcuo saw Song Lehan cooked noodles and made the sauce.
Song Lehan was no longer angry, and his tone became normal, "Yes, it's hot today, eating cold noodles can cool down."
Xu Jiangcuo picked a bowl of noodles and raised his eyes while mixing the stew. He looked at her and smiled softly, "Are you not angry with me anymore?"
"Am I angry?" After collecting her thoughts, she added, "We are just friends, we were just joking, don't take it seriously."
While cooking, Song Lehan figured it out.
She had no reason to take what Xu Jiangcuo said seriously.
Perhaps he was just being impulsive and simply teasing her. After all, they saw each other all day long, and their relationship was already very close.
The phrase "young couple flirting" must have been something he said casually.
Xiao Sangzhu said that many people are pursuing him, and he might have learned the skills to pick up girls from somewhere.
When the atmosphere is right, just say something.
It won’t lose any meat.
The more he thought about it, the more upset Song Lehan felt.
I just told her I would be back soon and that I was going to town to buy lime. Could it take so long?
There are many things I can’t help but think about.
For example, at this moment, why is Song Lehan thinking about these things without any basis?
Across from him, Xu Jiangcuo was eating noodles slowly, his eyes lowered, not knowing what he was thinking about.
The two of them ate with their hearts full of thoughts.
Song Lehan only ate half a bowl and put down his chopsticks.
Hearing the sound of Song Lehan putting down his chopsticks, Xu Jiangcuo raised his eyebrows and said, "To be honest, I don't know what you are angry about."
This inexplicable sentence reignited Song Lehan's anger.
"I said, I'm not angry." She repeated word by word, trying to keep her voice steady.
Xu Jiangcuo was not in the mood to eat. He looked up and met her gaze. "Don't be so stubborn. Are you still saying you're not angry?"
Song Lehan was silent.
She lowered her head, and her long eyelashes cast a faint shadow under her eyes, just like her mood at the moment, dark and unclear.
"Tell me, what on earth did I say that made you unhappy?"
Xu Jiangcuo couldn't understand it. They were talking and laughing on the way back, so how could it suddenly become like this?
They are quite familiar with each other. She can even touch her own abdominal muscles, so why can't he joke around?
Apart from the phrase "young couple" which was his own personal opinion, were the rest of his words excessive?
Yes, he wanted to test Song Lehan.
I want to see if she can accept a relationship other than just friends.
But now thinking about it, Xu Jiangcuo understood.
Song Lehan would not consider him.
After all, she is a star, what is he?
I had told her before that I had forgotten a very important person. She probably thought he was ridiculous a long time ago, right?
Xu Jiangcuo suddenly remembered what Song Lehan had said.
If they liked each other, they might have been together a long time ago.
We were classmates before, but now we can only be friends.
Even if the person who is very important to him is her, it can only be considered as his unrequited love.
"I'm sorry, I took a joke today."
