The 41st day of being eavesdropped
For several days in a row, the Song family was avoiding people.
The discussion in the compound changed the topic until Saturday when He Chunlian's school was going to sing a play. He Chunlian specifically instructed Gu Yinxing, "No matter what, you must bring your partner to us this time. Whether it's a donkey or a horse, you have to take it out for a walk."
"Mom, there's no need to rush about this, right?"
Gu Yinxing poked at the roasted sweet potato in the bowl, her tone was lazy, and it was clear that she didn't care much.
She had some good feelings for Zhao Donglai at the beginning, but as they got to know each other, she felt that he was boring. She always felt that the man was weird, but she couldn't tell what was wrong.
This Chengzi Gu Yinxing was not in a hurry to meet Zhao Donglai, but he was quite anxious, as if he wanted to settle it as soon as possible.
"It's not urgent, we are looking at people, we have to check for you, if the person is not good, change him." He Chunlian was very open-minded in this regard.
Gu Jinshui smiled and said, "Mom, you are so chilling."
"What chilling, if the person is not good, change him. If you really know that the person is not good, but still insist on talking, don't you have water in your brain?" He Chunlian rolled her eyes at her son, "Eat your own food, don't interrupt!"
Gu Jinshui made a gesture of pulling his mouth up, glanced at Gu Yinxing, and said that he could do nothing to help. Gu Yinxing could only sigh: "Okay, I guess he should be free this afternoon."
Zhao Donglai was very enthusiastic, Gu Yinxing called him and he agreed immediately.
At one o'clock in the afternoon, the Gu family met Zhao Donglai at the school gate.
Zhao Donglai looked very fair, but his hair was as shiny as if it had been licked by a cow. He wore a small suit and small leather shoes, looking bright and beautiful.
When he saw Gu Jinshui, a look of surprise flashed across his face, and then he quickly extended his hand: "This is Brother Jinshui, hello."
Gu Jinshui shook hands with him and said politely: "Hello, hello. I heard that you work in a department store. What do you do?"
"I work in the accounting department, as an accountant." Zhao Donglai adjusted his glasses somewhat complacently, waiting for the Gu family to praise him.
Every time he mentioned his work to others, outsiders would inevitably look at him with envy.
But this time, the Gu family just nodded, and no one said anything.
Liang Ying even looked at her watch and said, "Jinshui, it's almost time. We have to go in quickly so as not to miss the opening."
"Oh, yes, I almost forgot. Let me hold you, young lady." Gu Jinshui looked at the people in the school. Wow, there were quite a lot of people, and there were quite a few small vendors inside, selling melon seeds, peanuts and candies.
Gu Jinshui bought a bag of peanut candies and a bag of Bankong.
To be honest, He Chunlian and her colleagues' performance of "Qin Xianglian" was really good. At least there were quite a few people who applauded. He Chunlian's figure was also good, and her singing voice was clear. She didn't have the hoarseness that she had to worry about at her age.
After singing a play, she came out from the backstage. The Gu family came to greet her. Gu Jinshui said, "Mom, drink some water, soaked with Sterculia lychnophora. The play you performed today is really good."
"No problem." He Chunlian was quite proud. She glanced at Zhao Donglai.
Zhao Donglai stood there blankly without moving. Gu Yinxing had to introduce him, "Mom, this is Zhao Donglai, the one introduced by Sister Xu."
"Oh."
He Chunlian stretched out the last syllable. She had makeup on her face, but she was not ugly. She was very dignified and graceful, like an old lady from a wealthy family. "Young man, this is your first time watching a play, what do you think?"
Zhao Donglai's lips moved, and he was extremely disgusted in his heart.
He likes to watch modern dramas such as Teahouse and Thunderstorm, and he also watches movies. However, he despises and sneers at Peking Opera from the bottom of his heart, especially when he sees the old lady's painted face. However, he cannot say it is bad, so he can only force a smile and say, "I don't understand these."
He Chunlian nodded, "It doesn't matter if you don't understand. No one understands it just now."
She only said this and didn't say anything else.
Zhao Donglai felt uncomfortable and said, "Auntie, I plan to take Yinxing out for dinner. What do you think?"
Liang Ying was stunned for a moment, and looked at Gu Jinshui. The couple didn't say anything.
He Chunlian smiled and said, "Okay, go, Yinxing, come back early."
Gu Yinxing said, and when she met He Chunlian's eyes, she had to pout and agree.
After the two left.
Gu Jinshui put on the earmuffs of the child in her arms and said to He Chunlian, "Mom, I think this guy is really not good."
"Do you need to tell me?" He Chunlian rolled her eyes at him.
She has seen all kinds of old sparrows. That guy is too arrogant and doesn't take their family members seriously at all. He
even complained about her singing opera. What's wrong with singing opera? It's passed down from our ancestors. It's not good enough.
The area near the school is lively, and the restaurants are also doing a booming business at this time.
Gu Yinxing went inside and found a table before sitting down. Zhao Donglai went to order the dishes and came back, saying, "I ordered two bowls of dumplings, a dish of boiled lamb, and a dish of smashed cucumber. Is that enough?"
"It's too much. I can't eat so much." Gu Yinxing frowned and said.
Zhao Donglai waved his hand, "It's okay. This is not expensive. I paid the bill. It's only two yuan and eighty cents."
Gu Yinxing: "..."
Another reason why she didn't like Zhao Donglai was because of this.
This guy seemed to not understand what she was saying.
She said she couldn't eat so much, and he said it was not expensive.
Isn't this ridiculous?
"Yinxing, why are you staying here?"
Song Mei's surprised voice rang behind her.
As soon as Gu Yinxing looked up, his face darkened. How come he could run into her everywhere?
"Yinxing, who is this?" Zhao Donglai saw Song Mei, and a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes. Song Mei was dressed very stylishly today, with a gray woolen coat and a red skirt underneath. The skirt was only as short as her knees, and she was wearing a pair of small leather shoes.
Not to mention Zhao Donglai coming to see Song Mei, even the men passing by in the restaurant would take a look at her, as such a short skirt was rare these days.
Song Mei sat down next to Gu Yinxing as if she was familiar with him, and smiled at Zhao Donglai: "I am Song Mei, Yinxing's friend, and I also work in the hospital. Are you her boyfriend? You really look like Gao Cangjian."
Ken Takakura is the male lead in the Japanese movie "The Chase". Although he is Japanese, he is the most admired man in the hearts of countless young girls and women in recent years.
Therefore, if you praise a man for being like Ken Takakura, it is tantamount to praising the man for being good-looking and energetic!
Gu Yinxing glanced at Zhao Donglai and almost said, "Are you blind?"
Zhao Donglai looks okay, but he is so white that he doesn't even have a beard. How can he look like Ken Takakura? He does look like Mayumi.
"Thank you for the compliment. Since you are Yinxing's friend, let's sit together. The dishes we ordered will be here soon."
Zhao Donglai couldn't help but smile, and his attitude towards Song Mei became a little more enthusiastic.
Song Mei smiled and said, "I'm so embarrassed. I just ordered a bowl of noodles. Let's eat it together later. Yinxing, what do you think?"
She deliberately smiled and looked at Gu Yinxing, waiting for Gu Yinxing
to get angry. Little did she know that Gu Yinxing was very disgusted with Zhao Donglai in her heart. Seeing Song Meilai do this, she felt very happy in her heart.
She said, "What's wrong with it? Anyway, I'm not paying. You can do whatever you want."
"Yinxing?" Song Mei widened her eyes and seemed very surprised, "How can you ask a gay man to pay? This is too impolite."
???
Gu Yinxing looked at Song Mei as if he had seen a ghost, "What does this have to do with you? He insisted on treating us, and I didn't force him."
"But you can't be so unsociable. Men and women are equal now. Even if you are dating, you can't ask gay men to pay. Yinxing, this is what you did wrong."
Song Mei frowned and looked at Gu Yinxing's expression, as if Gu Yinxing was so ignorant.
Gu Yinxing raised his eyebrows and pretended to be silent.
She rolled her eyes and said, "Song Mei, what you said makes a lot of sense, so why don't you pay for this meal? Anyway, you are so generous."
Song Mei was choked.
She had no money, so she just bought a bowl of vegetarian noodles with a few dimes. Because of the salary fine, Huang Xirong was mad at her these days and refused to give her any money.
Gu Yinxing sneered, "Why? It seems you are just a big talker. You say nice things but you don't spend a penny."
"I, I..." Song Mei was embarrassed.
She bit her lower lip and looked at Zhao Donglai pitifully.
Zhao Donglai felt distressed.
Comrade Song Mei was such a nice and open-minded person, but Gu Yinxing was a little mean. Why did he have to squeeze her?
He hurriedly said, "It's okay. I'm treating you today. It would be too polite for you to pay. The most important thing is that everyone enjoys the meal."
Song Mei burst into laughter and said, "Thank you. What's your name?"
"My name is Zhao Donglai, the Donglai in Purple Air Coming from the East." Zhao Donglai straightened his back and was a little afraid to look at Song Mei.
Song Mei drew her eyebrows and painted her lips bright red. She blinked her eyes, "Zhao Donglai, Comrade Zhao is such a nice name..."
The seduction seemed to be crushed in her throat, so sweet that it made her heart itch.
Gu Yinxing: "..."
Why did this scene seem familiar?
It was like the play that Chen Dengdeng had told her.
Gu Yinxing was not worried. She rolled her eyes. Just then the dishes were served: two bowls of fennel dumplings, boiled lamb, and smacked cucumber.
"Eat, eat, don't be polite."
Zhao Donglai called.
Gu Yinxing was not polite at all. She lowered her head to eat dumplings and watched the show. Yan
Qian and his friend Xu Rulin walked past the store. When they glanced, they saw a girl in the glass window. She was dressed warmly and wearing a small hat with a fur ball on her head. She was eating and rolling her eyes secretly.
The girl had a small face, a round nose, a smart and quirky expression, and a white face with rosy cheeks, like a peach.
"Yan Qian, why don't you leave?" Xu Rulin looked back at him in confusion.
Yan Qian stopped and said, "I still have something to do. You go to Lao Bai's house first."
"Why, do you see someone you know?" Xu Rulin came over curiously and looked inside. He saw Gu Yinxing at a glance. There was no other reason, this girl rolled her eyes too quickly.
Xu Rulin was amused, "Why, do you have a partner?"
He poked Yan Qian with his elbow.
Yan Qian smiled and said, "Almost."
"Okay, you, brothers were thinking of introducing you to someone. It seems that you have a target of your own. Okay, I'll go first, you take your time."
Xu Rulin teased.
He waved and left.
Yan Qian stood for a while and then entered the hotel.
He thought the girl would get impatient.
