Next to the urban area with flashing neon lights is a large, dim field. A row of bungalows sits on the field, like a residence in another world.
The faint moonlight fell, and the girl's slight footsteps broke the silence around her.
"Mom!" Xue Yuantong wrapped herself in a cotton coat and slipped to the door.
Because it was my mother's coat, it was draped over her body like a coat.
Aunt Gu glanced at her daughter.
Xue Yuantong asked: "Where is Jiang Ning?"
Aunt Gu: "In the house."
"Oh, then I'll go find him." After saying that, Xue Yuantong slipped into Jiang Ning's house with brisk steps.
When Hua Fengmei next to her saw this scene, her face, which was slightly indifferent due to the vicissitudes of life, showed a knowing smile: "Your Tongtong is more diligent than looking for Chuchu when she was a child."
Aunt Gu's face was full of tenderness and love, and she said: "This little girl has not been obedient since she was a child."
Then, she added: "But the way she is now, I feel quite relieved."
Aunt Gu's generation, when she was Tongtong's age, had already shouldered the pressure of life and was far less happy than her daughter.
The lines on Hua Fengmei's face softened a lot, and her tone was full of envy: "Jiang Ning is good."
What mother-in-law would not be satisfied with a boy like this who has good grades, looks good, is tall, independent, speaks and acts in a gentle manner, and is said to be very strong?
Hua Fengmei thought of her own Chu Chu. If Chu Chu could meet such a boy, even if he was as harsh as Hua Fengmei, he would definitely be satisfied.
Hua Fengmei thought for a while and gave a subtle reminder: "Don't be too indulgent, and you have to pay attention to safety."
Aunt Gu was startled for a moment, then smiled: "Tongtong is still a child, Jiang Ning is very measured."
A few days ago, Tongtong fell asleep while playing games in Jiang Ning's house, and he personally carried her home.
Having known each other day and night for more than a year, Aunt Gu noticed Jiang Ning's character.
When Hua Fengmei heard this, she sighed in her heart. Tongtong is now settled, but where is her family's Chuchu?
Chu Chu follows her, has a cold temper, and doesn't like to talk. Don't think about her taking the initiative to have sex with other boys.
So Hua Fengmei is usually very strict with her. With Chu Chu's temperament, if she doesn't have the ability, she will definitely suffer a big loss when she enters the society, so she must study hard.
…
"Jiang Ning, your noble Majesty has arrived, come and greet him quickly!"
Xue Yuantong held the mobile phone as if holding the jade seal of power.
If Jiang Ning took out a dagger and turned into a cold-blooded assassin, Xue Yuantong would probably start shouting and order all his beloved ministers to escort him.
It's just that Jiang Ning thinks it's too childish and doesn't bother to play around with her.
So Tong Tong walked into the house like an emperor. When she came in and took a look, she found that her throne had been occupied. Xue Yuantong snorted coldly: "Rebellious minister, are you planning to rebel?"
Jiang Ning showed off his Gundam box and said calmly: "What's wrong with me?"
Xue Yuantong gritted his teeth and said: "I obey your order!"
So, she sat obediently on the square stool next to her. Fortunately, this stool had been covered with a blanket by Xue Yuantong before, so it was soft.
She happily opened the Gundam box.
Yes, this box was exactly what Bai Yuxia had trapped. Originally, Xue Yuantong wanted to start a fight in class, but with great perseverance, she chose to give the box to Jiang Ning and keep it until she went home in the evening to enjoy it slowly.
Xue Yuantong tore off the plastic film and opened the box. Inside was a sticker and several plastic boards with various Gundam parts stuck on them.
"Give me the knife." Xue Yuantong said.
Jiang Ning shared the props he usually uses for carving. When it comes to building models, Xue Yuantong's attitude has changed from her usual loose attitude. She is very strict. After unscrewing the parts from the plastic board, she will also use a file to modify them and shave off the plastic on the edges.
glitch.
She sat upright, dilly-dallying little by little.
Jiang Ning reached out and grabbed her serious face. Xue Yuantong immediately puffed up his mouth and fired back with thunderous eyes.
Seeing that she was playing seriously, Jiang Ning clicked on the player and played some soft music, while he logged into Tongtong's game account and started a game.
Just as Jiang Ning was immersed in the game, Xue Yuantong's cell phone suddenly lit up.
She put down the parts she had on to see who was looking for her.
Shang Caiwei: "Game?"
Xue Yuantong responded quickly: "Continue the truce."
"Oh, okay." Shang Caiwei felt very sorry in an e-sports style bedroom in a community somewhere in the city.
Without Xue Yuantong as her comrade, she suddenly no longer wanted to play games alone.
She stared at the game interface and saw that Xue Yuantong's account was clearly online. It was not any other random account, it was her real account.
"Am I... disliked?" Shang Caiwei's deer-like eyes were overflowing with inferiority complex.
'Is she too boring?'
Yes, when other girls form teams, they are often socially proficient and able to chat well with others.
And for a timid person like her, she doesn't even dare to communicate with others when playing games.
She only dares to curse people.
Shang Caiwei felt uncomfortable for her cowardice. She stared at the screen blankly, and she discovered that "Ningning Stealing the Wild" was in the game.
‘Did she find other game friends?’ Shang Caiwei couldn’t help but think about it.
'Have you been abandoned?'
Xue Yuantong's skills are too strong. Without her, Shang Caiwei would only be beaten at the top.
She didn't want to lose Xue Yuantong, so after thinking about it for a long time, Shang Caiwei finally decided to enhance her friendship with Xue Yuantong.
After waiting for a long time, she saw that Xue Yuantong's game was over, so she mustered up the courage to send a message: "Bai Yuxia brought a lot of dolls today."
Xue Yuantong started assembling the Gundam. She deliberately put it together very slowly to make every part fit perfectly.
This kind of cheap Gundam may not be worth mentioning in the eyes of many people, but in Xue Yuantong's view, it is like a treasure!
When she saw the message from her gaming friend, she replied: "Rag dolls? Yes, Bai Yuxia has a lot of them."
It's a pity that she already has the coolest and most handsome assembled Gundam among them, although it is the Q version!
Shang Caiwei: "There are many small animals in the rag dolls, including kittens, ponies, and puppies. The shapes are very cute..."
Xue Yuantong: "Indeed."
Shang Caiwei finally plucked up the courage to be outgoing, but Xue Yuantong's message was too brief, and she didn't know how to reply for a while.
Shang Caiwei didn't know how to chat, but she had someone she could refer to. She returned to the list and browsed the messages sent to her by some boys, including former classmates Xu Chundeng, Chai Wei, and Dong Qingfeng...
Shang Caiwei flipped through the answers. Whenever she replied with such short words, the other party would either extend the topic or choose to praise her.
Shang Caiwei's concept is more advanced. She chose to combine the two. She sent a message again: "Do you like small animals? I heard that girls who like small animals have very gentle personalities."
Xue Yuantong: "I like small animals!"
Shang Caiwei continued to ask: "What little animals do you like?"
Xue Yuantong: "Rabbit."
Shang Caiwei once again referred to the information about the boys in the list, oh, it's time to resonate.
Shang Caiwei: "I also like rabbits. They have long ears, beautiful eyes, and short tails. They are so cute."
"What do you like most about Tutu?" she asked.
Xue Yuantong drooled: "Because it's so fragrant, spicy rabbit meat is especially fragrant! (saliva)"
Shang Caiwei sat blankly on the gaming chair. She stared at the message list, her delicate little face full of confusion.
This is too much. Who can tell her now how she should respond?
…
At about 10:20 in the evening, Xue Chuchu carried a stainless steel rice bowl and walked into Jiang Ning's bedroom.
Xue Yuantong smelled the smell of spices. She had just been aroused by the spicy rabbit meat, and now someone took the initiative to serve delicious food.
Xue Yuantong glanced at the shelled edamame in the basin.
She tilted her head slightly, thinking in her eyes: "Edamame?"
Xue Chuchu said: "It's braised edamame."
After school this afternoon, she suddenly wanted to make some snacks, so she chose two kilograms of edamame from the vegetable vendor in Heba.
After cleaning, mix with many kinds of spices, pepper, cloves, cinnamon, etc...
Stir-fry the spices, then add the edamame and simmer it. It is very suitable for snacks.
Xue Yuantong found that this pot of edamame was very beautifully made, with an attractive color, and scattered dried chili peppers mixed in. Needless to say, the taste was definitely spicy enough.
"Chu Chu, is it delicious?" Xue Yuantong put down the Gundam parts and asked.
When Xue Chuchu heard these familiar words, she felt like she was dreaming back to her childhood. She remembered that when she was a child, no matter what snacks she bought, Tongtong would always come up to her and ask her if they were delicious.
If Chu Chu said it was delicious, Tong Tong said she would try it too.
If she said it didn't taste good, Tongtong said, let her eat it.
This problem has troubled Chu Chu for a long time. Today, she came prepared.
Xue Chuchu said: "It's the taste I like to eat."
Xue Yuantong: "Great, what you like is what I like."
Xue Chuchu gave up her resistance and handed the stainless steel basin to Tongtong.
"You gave it to me, what are you going to eat?" Xue Yuantong couldn't bear to see Chu Chu alone.
Xue Chuchu: "I ate some at home."
Xue Yuantong was very loyal. She had a stutter and she must not starve her sisters. She found a paper cup, poured a paper cup of edamame for Chu Chu, and let her sit on the sofa to enjoy it.
At first, Xue Yuantong put the rice bowl with edamame on the desk. She continued to work hard, and occasionally touched an edamame to taste. It was spicy and delicious. Compared with the edamame sold on the street, the edamame she bought was bigger and fuller, and tasted better.
Very satisfied.
'Chu Chu's craftsmanship is getting better and better, and he will also make some new tricks.' A thought suddenly flashed in Xue Yuantong's head.
However, for Xue Yuantong, isn't it a good thing? I eat, eat, eat!
Xue Yuantong spit out the edamame shell.
She was limited to fighting Gundam, and her hands were semi-imprisoned, so she ate slowly.
Jiang Ning was much more chic. He chose a war movie and tasted edamame while watching it.
After a while, there were a lot of edamame missing from the rice bowl.
Xue Yuantong took a look and saw how this could work!
She issued a warning, saying that the turn system should be followed. She took one, and only Jiang Ning could take one.
It turned out that Jiang Ning didn't follow the rules at all and kept eating braised edamame.
Xue Yuantong was so angry that she moved away and put the rice bowl on her lap, taking advantage of the distance to hit Jiang Ning.
With the distance restriction, Jiang Ning's movements were indeed much slower.
From often taking edamame beans from the computer table, to occasionally taking edamame beans from the rice bowl on her lap.
Xue Yuantong can finally sit back and relax and fight Gundam with peace of mind.
At this time, Chu Chu's voice came from behind: "Tongtong, do you know how to retrieve photos that have been deleted by mistake?"
Xue Chuchu looked at the phone, feeling a little sad.
This involves Xue Yuantong's professional field. She said happily: "Hahaha, of course I know."
She picked up the rice bowl, ran to the sofa, and helped Chuchu operate the phone: "The gallery has a recycle bin, or a recent delete option."
"Look." Xue Yuantong clicked twice and found the recycle bin option.
Xue Chuchu: "Oh, this is the first time I know."
She thought that after deleting the picture, it would completely disappear.
Xue Yuantong stood on the commanding heights and criticized righteously: "I told you not to play with your mobile phone and have to study every day. Now you don't understand!"
Xue Chuchu: "..."
Xue Yuantong clicked into the recycle bin and saw a few pictures. She laughed and said: "Hey, Chuchu, you can also take selfies?"
She looked at Chu Chu with a teasing expression.
Xue Chuchu quickly grabbed her phone back. She glanced at Jiang Ning with her peripheral vision, her expression still cold: "Look in the mirror to see if there are any pimples on your face."
Xue Yuantong: "Yo yo yo."
She returned to the computer desk with a smile and continued her assembling journey.
Xue Chuchu regretted it. If she had known that Tongtong said this, she would have put in more effort and searched on Baidu without asking her for help. Now that Jiang Ning heard it, he would probably think that she is ugly, right?
There are some female classmates on her list who post selfies and talk about them in the space every day. Behind the scenes, some people comment on whether those girls are ugly or pretty.
Xue Chuchu doesn't want to be said like that, and she has been threatened on QQ, so she never exposes herself online now.
It's just that as a girl, she occasionally wants to know what she looks like today, so she takes a selfie for her future self to see, although the frequency is very rare.
Xue Chuchu wanted to go home. She was about to say goodbye and leave. At this moment, Aunt Gu shouted from outside: "Tongtong, come to the house to get something."
Xue Yuantong pretended not to hear, and Aunt Gu started counting down outside.
After the timer expired, Xue Yuantong responded: "It's coming, it's coming!"
This time she didn't selfishly pick up the rice bowl, but turned around and said: "Chu Chu, I'm still almost finished with my Gundam. Please check it for me, please!"
After saying that, Xue Yuantong slipped away like the wind.
Only Jiang Ning and Xue Chuchu were left in the room.
Okay, now Chu Chu can’t leave.
Since it was Tongtong's instructions, Chu Chu naturally couldn't refuse. She got up from the sofa and moved to the square stool.
She has a dignified and elegant figure, wearing a plain white nightgown that matches her fair and jade-like skin.
Jiang Ning was watching a movie next to her, and Xue Chuchu felt his presence, which made her feel slightly embarrassed.
Jiang Ning said kindly: "Tongtong is too careless. Please help her check to see if she is spelled correctly."
As he spoke, he found the blueprints for the Q version of Gundam.
"Okay." Xue Chuchu picked up the drawing with her soft fingers. She pressed her knees together and gently landed her feet on the ground, with her toes slightly clasped inward, like a fairy walking out of a painting.
The silence lasted for three minutes.
Until a certain moment, Jiang Ning, who was enjoying the movie, groped for the position of the rice bowl with her palms as before.
Then, his palm actually touched the bottom and touched Chu Chu's thigh.
Even though there was a layer of skirt fabric, Xue Chuchu could still feel the heart-shaking trembling that made her heart tingle.
Her cold face was rosy, as if covered with a layer of mist.
She looked at Jiang Ning in disbelief.
Jiang Ning suddenly realized that he had touched it wrong.
At this time, his hand was placed on Chu Chu's soft, smooth and cold legs.
Jiang Ning lost all his consciousness and said seriously: "Chu Chu, you have lost weight."
