The spring sunshine shines warmly on my body.
Lin Cheng was sitting on the balcony like a salted fish, watching videos in boredom, when he felt his leg being kicked lightly.
“Hey! Come over a little bit.”
"what?"
Xiao Tong held a box in her hand and was a little dissatisfied that Lin Cheng occupied the most comfortable position on the balcony to bask in the sun.
“Get out of the way, I’m going to paint my nail polish here.”
Lin Cheng reluctantly moved his position while muttering: "Why are you coming here to join in the fun? Just stay inside."
Xiao Tong sat down and rolled her eyes at him, "Why are you acting like an uncle? This is our room."
“Comrade Lao Xiao, look at you, are you out again?”
Lin Cheng waved his hand, "I already said what's yours is mine, why are you being so polite to me?"
Xiao Tong wrinkled her nose and snorted, put down the tool box, lowered her head and stretched out her long white fingers, ready to start applying nail polish.
Taking a piece of paper and gently wiping the moist and clean nail surface, Xiao Tong dipped a small brush in transparent grease and carefully applied it on it.
Lin Cheng is a very curious person. He looked up and looked at it again and again, "Isn't this color the same as if it is not painted?"
“This is a base coat, of course it has no color, I will have to apply it later.”
"oh."
Lin Cheng put down his cell phone and sat beside him, staring at Xiao Tong's movements with curiosity.
“Xiao Tong.”
"what?"
“How do you cut your nails? Why do they look so neat?”
“How else can I cut it? Of course I have to cut it myself.”
“Why are my nails not as neatly cut as yours?”
“Because you are stupid.”
Lin Cheng looked down at his nails.
It has become a little longer, and it looks not so neat. Some places look like they have been gnawed by a dog.
Normally, Lin Cheng doesn't care about whether his nails look good or not. He just picks up a nail clipper and cuts it short two or three times, then he compares Xiao Tong's fingernails carefully and realizes that nails can be trimmed so beautifully.
“Can you help me cut it? I can’t cut it well.”
“No time, didn’t you see that I was busy?”
Xiao Tong continued his work without raising his head.
Lin Cheng curled his lips and turned around to see Han Shuyan looking at him with a smile.
“Sister Shuyan····”
“I’m going to get the manicure tools, please wait a moment.”
Han Shuyan stood up, as if she knew Lin Cheng would definitely ask her for help.
Lin Cheng chuckled, watched Han Shuyan enter the room, and hummed a pleasant tune.
Looking up and glancing at Lin Cheng, Xiao Tong couldn't help but stab him with words, "You're going to trouble Sister Shuyan. What will I do to you if you leave Sister Shuyan in the future?"
Lin Cheng was stunned and stopped talking.
“Hey! Are you mute?”
“Ignore me, I’m thinking about life.”
When Han Shuyan got the tools, Lin Cheng sat in front of her, honestly stretched out his hand and let her do it.
“Please give me a better look.”
"I know, I know."
Han Shuyan asked Lin Cheng to put her fingers together and carefully trim the outline with nail clippers.
After roughly trimming the outline, she held Lin Cheng's hand and started to trim the edges and corners of her nails in one direction bit by bit.
She spent a lot of time processing just the nails on her left hand, but it was obvious that the shape of the nail surface had become rounded, and the length of all nails remained the same, making it much more beautiful than before.
“So it’s so troublesome.”
The procedure is not complicated, but the repeated polishing process is not easy. Lin Cheng feels tired just by stretching out his hands to maintain his posture.
“What do you think? If you cut it off casually like you, of course it won’t look good.”
Han Shuyan gave him a funny look, then lowered her eyes, lowered her head and carefully trimmed the nails on Lin Cheng's right hand.
She lowered her head slightly, with one side of her long hair tucked behind her ear, and the other side of her hair hanging down was smudged by the sunlight, half-covering her delicate cheeks.
“A-Cheng, don’t cut your nails too short to save trouble, otherwise you will easily injure the nail bed.”
"Um."
“If you want to cut it yourself, it’s best to soak your nails in warm water before cutting them.”
"Um."
“Don’t push back and forth when using the stick, otherwise it will easily injure the nail root.”
"Um."
Lin Cheng had been a yes man for a long time, and Han Shuyan raised her head to see him staring straight at her.
“Are you listening? Will you do what I say?”
Lin Cheng said honestly: "No, it's too troublesome."
Han Shuyan gouged out his eyes, and it turned out that all those words were in vain.
Xiao Tong stretched out her fingers with light pink nail polish and compared them in the sun, and casually interjected: "Sister Shuyan, why are you talking to him so much? It's useless no matter how much you say, he will only remember one thing.
.”
Lin Cheng subconsciously asked: "What's the matter?"
“Of course, if it’s too troublesome, just ask Sister Shuyan.”
Lin Cheng opened his mouth to refute, but it seemed that this sentence was correct.
Seeing the smile gathering in Han Shuyan’s eyes, Lin Cheng glanced sideways at Xiao Tong and said, “Don’t talk about me, aren’t you also a virtuous person?”
Xiao Tong stopped what she was doing and suddenly realized that she seemed to be no better than Lin Cheng.
“Hmm~~Sister Shuyan, what will I do if I leave you in the future?”
Looking at the two of them, Han Shuyan finally couldn't help but chuckle.
After trimming his nails, Lin Cheng put his hands together in front of him and looked at them again and again, looking very satisfied.
Xiao Tong also painted her nail polish, and stretched out her fair and delicate feet beside her to paint her toenails in a different color.
Seeing Lin Cheng looking at him curiously, Xiao Tong rolled her eyes at him, "What for? You want to put on nail polish too?"
Lin Cheng curled his lips and turned away his head, "By the way, which one of you is free in the afternoon? Can you accompany me to buy an eyeliner? I don't know how to choose."
“Why did you buy eyeliner?”
Lin Cheng coughed twice: "Yesterday, I accidentally broke Sister Shiyan's eyeliner, and it was Enxi who took the blame for me. I'm going to buy some almonds to reward the little girl, and pick up an eyeliner by the way."
Xiao Tong was shocked: "You actually asked Enxi to take the blame for you, are you still a human being?"
Facing Xiao Tong’s soul torture, Lin Cheng turned his head away and pretended not to hear.
Han Shuyan put down the book and thought for a while, "There is nothing to do now anyway, otherwise let's go now. I'm also going to buy some cosmetics."
“Okay, okay, let’s go now.”
Lin Cheng quickly stood up and looked at Xiao Tong: "Xiao Tong, are you going?"
"I····"
“Forget it if you don’t want to go. Then Sister Shuyan and I will leave. You can take good care of the house.”
ˆXiao Tong: “····”
Did I say I wouldn’t go?
Xiao Tong looked at the nail polish that had just been applied on her feet and glanced sideways at Lin Cheng: "Then buy me yogurt-flavored almonds."
