Feeling the eager gazes from all around, He Sui suddenly regretted not bringing a mask to cover his face.
because……
"Hey, who's this boy from? He's so handsome!"
"My eyesight isn't very good, so I have to get closer to take a look. Oh my, he's so handsome!"
"It doesn't look like it's from our area, does it?"
"Tsk tsk tsk, such a handsome man, he looks like a kid from a wealthy family."
There are many alleys in this area, and there are many older people.
Most of the people who come to have breakfast are uncles, aunts, or grandparents. When they get together, they have endless gossip to talk about.
As a young man, he seemed a little out of place standing in the team.
Coupled with her outstanding appearance, she attracted all the attention around her.
The topic of discussion among the people gradually turned into a nationwide topic of urging people to get married.
"I just wonder if he has a girlfriend? Judging from his appearance, he shouldn't be very old."
"How old are you, young man?"
Some aunties took the lead and started sales work.
"Hey young man, my girl is very pretty! She's a perfect match for you!"
The other aunt who was a step slower instantly became angry.
"Young man, don't listen to her. Her girl has buck teeth! And she's fat! My girl is so beautiful!"
"Bah! You're talking nonsense! How can you slander others like that?"
"Just now you were saying that my girl was... something about being kind and elegant! Now you change your mind! I think you have bad intentions!"
In front of the handsome man, the two sisters who were in love with each other and wanted to become sworn brothers on the spot suddenly put their hands on their hips and started quarreling.
“…”
He Sui was speechless.
At this moment, he was like a hot and delicious steamed bun, being fought over.
But he had important things to do and couldn't just walk away.
So I can only bear it for the time being.
The narrow fox eyes were half-closed, and the golden light leaking through the gaps between the leaves just happened to shine on him, making him look extremely gentle.
If you ignore his current impatient expression.
Qiao Ran had just taken off his mask and was drinking some water while the meat buns were still hot.
By the way, listen to the gossip around you.
This was the only fun she could find while working part-time here.
She likes this busy and fulfilling life, which is suitable for a frog like her who has always lived at the bottom of a well.
There is also an English vocabulary book on the partition under the stall.
The cover was in tatters and patched up with tape, but I still couldn't make out the words on the first page.
She had bought this for one dollar from a used bookstall on the roadside.
Qiao Ran’s common sense in life is: don’t pursue the best, just make do with what you have.
This is how she has been living for so many years.
The temperature had already turned cold, and she even felt a little cold when she came in the morning, but now she was still sweating from the steam from the buns coming out of the steamer.
She casually raised her hand and wiped it with the sleeve she wore outside her clothes.
Her face was covered with a lot of flour, but she didn't care.
She actually doesn't look bad. After all, she has a face very similar to Qiao Tianai, the eldest daughter of the Qiao family.
It's just that she is always exposed to the wind and sun, so her skin is darker and rougher.
If you clean it up properly, it can look bright and beautiful.
But she never cared about appearance.
And she didn't want to have a similar face to Qiao Tianai at all.
The less similar, the better!
I had just taken a few sips of water when I heard the old men and women around me seemed to be discussing the same person.
This is a rare sight.
Usually when old men and women get together, they discuss their own children, and each one boasts more than the other.
Such consistent praise actually made her curious.
Who is so powerful?
She put down the glass, took a sip of water and looked at the man.
She wanted to see what kind of handsome guy was coming, but when she saw the face that could be said to be her nightmare, she choked on her throat.
“Cough cough cough…”
The violent coughing made Qiao Ran's face red.
She covered her mouth tightly with her hands, suppressing her cough, for fear that He Sui would hear it.
She quickly pulled up the mask to cover her face tightly, then took off the hairpin that was holding her bangs, and fiddled with them a few times without caring about the oil and flour on her hands.
The messy bangs were wet with sweat and had already become tangled into clumps, unable to cover anything at all.
Instead, it seems like the attempt to cover up something makes it more obvious.
Qiao Ran was panicking, and his throat was burning with pain from choking on water.
How could he come here!
This place is some distance away from the villa area, but very close to where she lives.
Did he see himself?!
Could it be that he has already discovered her...
Impossible, absolutely impossible.
How could it be such a coincidence!
He probably just heard that the breakfast here is delicious, so he chose to come here on the weekend to buy it, right?
It’s just that he happened to be standing in the queue where he was selling buns!
If he continues to queue, he might really recognize me!
No, she can't stay here any longer!
She has to leave quickly!
Qiao Ran grabbed the hand of the auntie at the stall next to him and covered his stomach, pretending to be uncomfortable.
"Auntie, can you help me look after the bun stall? I might have a stomachache from yesterday and I need to go to the bathroom now!"
She wanted to hide inside for a while and come out after he left.
If he discovered me, everything would be over!
She is a stain on the Qiao family and cannot be discovered by anyone!
This is the secret of the Qiao family!
When she was sent to Yuecheng, she promised the mistress of the Qiao family that she would never be recognized by anyone.
And she did spend six months safely.
But last time on the stairs, the boy looked hesitant to speak, which clearly showed that he felt she looked familiar.
She was almost exposed!
"Are you okay? Xiao Qiao, you don't look very well. Do you want to..."
The aunt wanted to reach out and support her.
"It's okay, I'll be gone for a while, please keep an eye on it for me, I'll be back soon."
"Leaving? Where to go?"
Before she knew it, the boy was standing in front of her.
