"Are you going too?" Xia An asked because it was obvious that Qi Muyi did not invite Ye Jin, and Ye Jin didn't even know that Qi Muyi's birthday was today.
Ye Jin raised his eyebrows and asked, "Isn't it possible?"
What else could Xia An say, he hummed "It's up to you" in a low voice, then lowered his head and took a bottle of perfume nearby, raised his head towards Ye Jin and said, "You gave it to you, I will give this to you."
Ye Jin: "..."
Passing by the shopping mall, there was heavy traffic, so the vehicles drove slowly.
The car was still quiet.
As Ye Jin drove the car, Xia An turned to look out the window, her thin lips pursed tightly, as if saying another word was a luxury. After passing two intersections, Ye Jin looked ahead and couldn't help but softly said, "Hungry"
?"
As soon as he heard Ye Jin's voice, Xia An's attention was drawn away.
"There are biscuits for the baby in the car." Ye Jin added.
Xia An didn't look back and replied calmly, "I'm not hungry."
At the third intersection, there was a red light.
After Ye Jin stepped on the brakes, she turned to look at Xia An, who had been dull all the time, "Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Xia An happened to turn her head and inevitably looked at Ye Jin briefly. She shook her head. Is it because they have been together for a long time? Xia An felt that her current indifferent appearance seemed to imitate the essence of Mr. Ye.
Ye Jin had never thought that the silent atmosphere would be as uncomfortable as it is now, but the more she looked at Xia An, the more she felt that she was angry and awkward. If a girl with such a stubborn temper became angry, she would be more difficult to coax than ordinary people.
Thinking about it, Ye Jin's expression relaxed a little.
At least, Xia An didn't resist her as relentlessly as before tonight.
When someone stares at you, you feel it to some extent.
Xia An vaguely felt this way. She simply supported her head with her hands and continued to glance out the window, thinking about the same thing. Ever since she was injured, her relationship with Ye Jin had become more subtle...
In my impression, Ye Jin rarely took the initiative to say something to her like this.
After a while, the scenery outside the car slowly began to recede.
The evening breeze blew gently across her cheeks, and Xia An squinted his eyes. It was very gentle, even a little warm. The weather in Nancheng has always been like this, as if there has never been spring. Occasionally, he noticed a few colorful colors in the flowerbeds on the street, and then he remembered that now
It's still spring.
Unintentionally worrying about the weather, Xia An Mumu looked at the beautiful and gorgeous night scene outside the car window, and the scenes passed by in front of her eyes as if they were just watching the lanterns. How could she care to appreciate it.
The life that I thought was peaceful was broken again because of Ye Jin's approach.
Xia An was thinking about what happened in recent days. She was thinking, if Ye Jin really wanted to take the initiative to restore their relationship, how should she choose?
Qi Muyi was busy in the kitchen when the doorbell rang.
"Here we come..." After Qi Muyi opened the door, she saw not one person, but two people in front of her. Her eyes couldn't help but shift from Xia An to Ye Jin who was aside. She was obviously a little surprised by Ye Jin's uninvited appearance.
.
"I'll send her here on the way." Ye Jin explained.
Xia An knew clearly whether it was a smooth ride or not. Besides, she had to be sent upstairs when she was on the way. Think about it carefully, didn't Ye Jin say this every time he picked her up, whether it was the hospital or school?
Even if it is intentional, it must be said that it is just along the way.
Listening to Ye Jin's words, Xia An was a little distracted.
Ye Jin handed the gift to Qi Muyi smoothly, "Happy birthday."
"Thank you." Qi Muyi took it with a smile.
Xia An came back to his senses and said, "Teacher, happy birthday."
"Well, come in."
Standing at the door, Xia An saw that Ye Jin still had no intention of leaving, "Aren't you still in a hurry to go home for dinner?"
"..." Ye Jin glanced at Xia An.
Xia An turned his head and pretended not to see it.
"We haven't eaten, how about we go together?" Qi Muyi said with a smile, which made the atmosphere less awkward. Although she had only invited Xia An originally, she would not let Ye Jin leave just like that under the current situation.
"Yeah." Ye Jin responded, walking in front of Xia An and putting on disposable slippers.
Xia An stood behind and looked at Ye Jin's back. As he looked at it, for some reason, he suddenly couldn't help but want to laugh. Some people look cold and serious on the surface, but it turns out that they have such a shameless side...
"You guys sit down for a while." Qi Muyi poured two glasses of water.
"Has anyone else come yet?" Xia An walked into the living room and saw that the room was empty and there was no atmosphere like a birthday party at all. Looking at the situation, it was Qi Muyi who was preparing dinner in the kitchen alone.
"They were temporarily busy, so they didn't come."
"That's it..."
Ye Jin silently glanced at Qi Muyi. As she expected, Qi Muyi only invited Xia An. As for the reason, it is not difficult to guess.
"I don't celebrate birthdays very often. I promised you to come to my house for dinner. I just have time today, so I will celebrate your discharge from the hospital." Qi Muyi had lied to Xia An before, but in fact she only called her Xia An tonight.
When someone came over, she did have the idea of pursuing Xia An, but she seemed to be a step later than someone else.
Xia An stood up and said, "Teacher, let me help you."
"can you cook?"
"Yes." When Xia An was less than ten years old, she could basically take care of herself, including washing and cooking.
"Your injury is just fine, sit down and rest." Ye Jin also stood up, she interrupted Xia An, and then said to Qi Muyi, "I'm here to help you."
Qi Muyi smiled thoughtfully and then said, "That's fine."
It was just a mild concussion, and it really became a key protection target.
Xia An sat on the sofa, tilted her head, and found that she could see Ye Jin in the kitchen. She took off her coat, only wearing a smart shirt, with her sleeves rolled up, lowering her head and cutting something seriously.
Ye Jin stayed shamelessly because of himself, of course Xia An understood.
The latest variety show was playing on the TV. It seemed quite interesting. Xia An watched it twice and involuntarily glanced towards the kitchen. Ye Jin tucked her slightly curly long hair behind her ears, exposing her beautiful and delicate side.
Her face, when she wasn't smiling, still gave people a sense of unreachable distance, so Xia An liked to see her smiling only at him. That way, she seemed to have a special sense of exclusiveness.
"I remember you didn't seem to go to the kitchen much before." In the kitchen, Qi Muyi was busy chatting with Ye Jin.
Mr. Ye's poor knife skills are enough to prove everything. It's not that he doesn't do it often, but he has never done it before. "Well, I don't have time."
"I don't have time either, but it feels good to cook for myself occasionally."
Ye Jin didn't say anything.
In daily life, Ye Jin is an out-and-out topic stopper. Speaking of which, Qi Muyi is quite afraid of being alone with Ye Jin. Sometimes while chatting, she can get into embarrassment unexpectedly. She knows how Ye Jin is.
, very arrogant, and would never say more than a few words on any topic that he was not interested in.
The reason why Sheng Ruqi and Ye Jin get along so well is probably because they have many common topics at work. It can be said that before getting together with Xia An, 90% of Ye Jin's life was occupied by work.
"I'm quite surprised."
"Um?"
"You will like Xia An." No matter in terms of personality or life circle, Qi Muyi felt that Xia An and Ye Jin were from two different worlds. But then she thought about it, it is difficult for a girl like Xia An not to be ignored.
Feel good about it.
Ye Jin then looked up at Qi Muyi and said to the point, "Don't you like her too?"
"Then let's compete fairly?" Qi Muyi said, lowered her head and smiled, and stepped down, "I'm joking, don't get me wrong, I asked her to come to dinner tonight just to thank her for protecting me that day in the hospital.
, I don’t mean anything else.” Qi Muyi is quite open-minded about emotional matters. If it’s hers, it’s hers. If it’s not hers, there will be no result if she doesn’t force it.
protect her...
Ye Jin listened and remembered that Xia An was injured because of Qi Muyi, so he poked and poked in anger again. As a result, he accidentally slipped his left hand, and the blade happened to cut the tip of his index finger.
It was cut, bleeding profusely, and then there was a burst of pain.
Xia An was leaning on the sofa, secretly glancing at Ye Jin while he was chopping vegetables. She was still complaining about how stupid she was, but within a few seconds, she saw Ye Jin cut her hand, and she immediately got up and walked to the kitchen.
go.
"Are you okay?" Qi Muyi saw that the wound seemed to be quite deep, "Let me help you take care of it."
"It's okay, no need."
As soon as Ye Jin finished saying it was okay, he saw Xia An coming over.
"What's wrong?" Xia An saw bright red blood on Ye Jin's fingers at a glance. She hurriedly asked Qi Muyi, "Teacher, where is the medical kit?"
"Under the coffee table."
Xia An looked at Ye Jin, "Take care of it, be careful of infection."
"Yeah." Ye Jin raised his wrist and followed Xia An.
Sitting on the sofa, Xia An took Ye Jin's hand and examined it carefully. Fortunately, the wound was not deep.
Ye Jin focused on looking at Xia An's lowered eyebrows and the gentle movements when treating her wounds. Just as the old lady said, Xia An was young but very careful and considerate. Ye Jin sometimes felt that she was far inferior to Xia An.
Take care of people.
Xia An lowered his head and muttered in a low voice while treating the wound, "I don't know why I should help."
Seeing Xia An pouting her lips slightly and complaining softly, Ye Jin couldn't help but said to her softly, "I was wrong..."
This sentence "I was wrong" seemed to have other meanings. After hearing this, Xia An couldn't help but raised his head and looked into Ye Jin's eyes.
The two of them were very close, and the distance could be called close.
Ye Jin stared at Xia An's face and still whispered to her, "Come home with me tonight."
Xia An's heart wavered again. Her eyes flashed and she replied, "I didn't say I would go back today."
"Wanwan and I," Ye Jin paused for a moment, "we both want you to go back."
