Chapter 71 Smile and Eyes PK
This quaint bookstore on the corner usually has a lot of people at noon. Many customers come in, stand by the bookshelf and look through a few books. When they find one they like, they go directly to the cashier to pay, and finally buy the book and go home.
It is already past six o'clock in the evening and it is raining. There are not many customers in the store. Most people come here to avoid the rain and stay in the bookstore to read for a while to kill time.
Since there were not many people buying books and the workload was light, the clerk sat on the chair at the cashier counter, tapping the glass of the counter from time to time out of boredom, thinking that the tall alpha who just came in was really handsome, but a little cold.
At this moment, a clear and pleasant voice rang out in front of her, "Hello, I want to buy this book. Can you pay for it for me?"
The clerk raised his head following the voice, and a fair and beautiful face immediately came into view, with clear eyes like water, soft hair scattered on both sides, a light green short-sleeved shirt with a pair of black casual pants, a refreshing and casual combination that made people look pleasing to the eye.
She remembered that this was the pretty Beta who came in to read at five o'clock in the afternoon. After more than an hour, she didn't see this Beta again and thought he had left long ago. It turned out that this pretty Beta had not left yet.
The clerk collected his thoughts, stood up from his chair, looked at the customer in front of him with a smile, and immediately regained his working attitude. He said in a gentle tone, "Okay, I'll check you out now. Wait a moment."
Li Yuqing walked to the cashier to pay for the book. The clerk quickly paid for him and gave him a paper bag and a wooden bookmark, put the novel in them, and then handed it to him.
Li Yuqing took the paper bag handed to him by the clerk with both hands, a faint smile appeared on his face, and he nodded politely to the clerk, then quickly turned around and returned to the corner of the bookstore, walking briskly to find Qin Shi.
When he returned there, he noticed the unharmonious atmosphere between Qin Shi and the stranger named Lin Xu.
The two tall alphas stared at each other, and there was a hint of gunpowder in the air, which felt like it was about to ignite in the next second. If you didn't know, you would think they had a grudge against each other.
Seeing this scene, Li Yuqing's heart tightened and he paused. He was a little confused. Did Qin Shi know this Lin Xu man? Why did it feel like they were about to fight?
Fortunately, Qin Shi and Lin Xu did not take action. As alphas, they were both of high quality and could fight with their eyes, so there was no need to fight directly.
However, who won in the end, probably only the two of them know.
Li Yuqing, carrying his paper bag, quickly walked to the position beside Qin Shi, then reached out and poked Qin Shi's shoulder, whispering, "Qin Shi, let's go back together."
As soon as Li Yuqing appeared, Qin Shi immediately withdrew his gaze from Lin Xu and focused all his attention on him. The fluctuation in his eyes was obvious, and it was the tenderness he could not hide for someone.
The lights were bright, and Qin Shi felt as if someone had touched his shoulder. He lowered his eyes to look at the person in front of him and replied softly to Li Yuqing, "Well, let's go."
The two of them walked towards the door of the bookstore together in tacit understanding. After two or three steps, Qin Shi noticed what he was holding in his hand, so he reached out and took the paper bag with an extremely natural look.
Li Yuqing was walking beside Qin Shi. The next second, his hands were inexplicably empty, and the paper bag containing the novel was directly taken away by Qin Shi.
He couldn't help but roll his eyes and glance at Qin Shi. Qin Shi's handsome face was reflected in his clear eyes. The corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise, and his steps became much lighter.
The only one left in the corner of the bookstore was the handsome alpha named Lin Xu. Looking at their backs as they left, one was tall and the other was short, but they inexplicably made people feel that they were a perfect match.
In fact, Li Yuqing and Qin Shi have been together for a long time, and the harmonious atmosphere between them is not something that others can fit into.
······
The streets were wet, the sky was gloomy, the wind had stopped, and the rain seemed to have stopped too.
Outside the quaint bookstore, a beautiful beta looked up at the dark sky, stretched out her right hand tentatively, shook it gently, and only walked out with confidence after finding no contact with raindrops.
After it got dark, the lights on Bairong Street came on, and business in many shops suddenly became bustling. People came to buy things one after another, and the joy on the bosses' faces was obvious.
The prosperous and bustling scene in the shops on Bairong Street contrasts with the quiet atmosphere of the bookstore on the corner, as if they are two different worlds.
Outside the bookstore, the tall alpha stood upright, and in his calm eyes, there was only the beta standing in front of him under the bright light, smiling at him.
Li Yuqing stood on the wet ground, turned around, and raised her soft palm to show Qin Shi. Her fair and delicate face was filled with a faint smile. "Qin Shi, the rain has stopped. Look, there is no rain on my hand."
"Um."
Qin Shi chuckled and responded, looking at Li Yuqing with a gentle gaze that made people inexplicably unable to look away.
Li Yuqing originally wanted to show Qin Shi that the rain had stopped, but when he looked up and met Qin Shi's gaze, he couldn't help but be immersed in the alpha's eyes.
The person he had been missing for a long time was standing there looking at him. Qin Shi's faint smile made Li Yuqing fall into the quiet and gentle lake in his eyes all of a sudden. His heart was pounding so loudly that he couldn't hear anything around him.
Under the lights of Bairong Street, Li Yuqing stood on the wet ground, looked up at Qin Shi's faint smile, and was stunned. His ears turned red and his heartbeat was obviously accelerated.
He thought to himself, Qin Shi actually smiled at him, how unfair!
At this moment, a man in black stepped out from the passenger seat of a nearby car. He quickly walked over to Qin Shi and respectfully asked, "Master, do you want to go back now?"
“······”
The ambiguous atmosphere in the air that belonged only to the two of them was suddenly destroyed, and the atmosphere inexplicably began to solidify.
Qin Shi's expression was cold. He glanced at him without saying a word.
The man in black looked at his young master, and then saw the exquisite and beautiful Beta standing opposite the young master. He realized belatedly that he seemed to have messed up something.
Li Yuqing was slightly stunned. The temperature on his ears had dropped rapidly and his heartbeat had stabilized. He no longer felt the panic and excitement he had just felt.
Under the light, he was still standing on the wet ground, his gaze falling on the face of the man in the dark who suddenly appeared, then back to Qin Shi's face, his eyes darting left and right, extremely curious.
Qin Shi glanced at the man in black calmly and ignored him. Instead, he walked towards Li Yuqing. He lowered his eyes to look at Li Yuqing and said softly, "Li Yuqing, get in the car. We're going back."
Li Yuqing nodded and got into the back seat with him obediently.
An expensive black vehicle drove smoothly on the streets of Bairong and finally headed towards its destination.
A week later, the two finally went back together again.
