Chapter 176, [Worker repairing water pipes] (first update)
Um?
Ask you to watch a movie?
When did I say I wanted to ask you to watch a movie?
After thinking about it for a moment, Xu Ziyin also understood that this must be another masterpiece of his sister-in-law.
This made him feel helpless and a little touched at the same time.
But now that Feiyan had said these words, Xu Ziyin couldn't say it directly, otherwise it would make both of them embarrassed, so they could only continue it casually.
"yes."
"I rarely come to Shanghai, so I wanted to watch a movie with you. I remember the only movie we watched was a horror movie, and it still left a deep impression on me."
The other party chuckled, then hummed.
"Okay, I'll get off work later, you go wait for me downstairs in the company."
—————
evening.
Xu Ziyin drove the Audi R8 to the downstairs of Xingchen Animation Company.
At this time, the setting sun is gradually setting, and the faint glow in the sky echoes the white snow on the ground, creating a beautiful scene.
After waiting for a moment, a group of people walked out of the building.
Xu Ziyin lowered the window and waved to Qin Feiyan in the crowd.
Qin Feiyan glanced at Xu Ziyin and then at his car, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
After a pause, she smiled at the colleague next to her.
"Okay, I won't have dinner with you tonight, I still have an appointment."
Seeing this, my colleague quickly joked.
"Hey, Feiyan, which rich second generation is this? Could it be that he is your suitor again?"
With a cut sound, Qin Feiyan said in disgust.
"What kind of suitor? This is my ex-boyfriend."
"Ah, ex-boyfriend?"
"Are you going out on a date with your ex-boyfriend?"
"What's wrong with my ex-boyfriend? We can still be friends even after we break up. Okay, I won't bother you anymore. I'm leaving."
After that, Qin Feiyan walked to the car with her bag in hand and looked as normal, then opened the passenger door and sat in with a calm expression.
…………
en route.
Xu Ziyin looked sideways and smiled.
"Fei Yan, I just came to Magic City and I'm not familiar with it. Where are we going?"
"Just go to the nearby shopping mall and turn left at the third traffic light ahead."
Qin Feiyan said curiously again.
"Xu Ziyin, does this car belong to you?"
After saying yes, Xu Ziyin didn't hide anything and said bluntly.
"My sister gave this to me."
"A lot of money, right?"
"More than two million."
After hearing more than two million, Qin Feiyan smacked his tongue, then said with a half-smile.
"A car costs more than two million. How many years do I have to work to earn it?"
"I didn't realize it. You are really a rich second generation. If I had known you were so rich, I should have exploited you desperately when we were together."
Hearing this, Xu Ziyin couldn't help but laugh.
"It's not too late. Whatever you want, I'll give it to you."
"Come on, you are not me now, why do I need your things?"
Qin Feiyan rolled his eyes at Xu Ziyin.
Xu Ziyin suddenly stopped talking.
Seriously speaking, in the month he and Feiyan were together, he seemed to have never given her any decent gift.
It was usually non-smokers who took the initiative. When she went out to take part-time jobs in photography to earn hundreds of dollars, she always wanted to take Xu Ziyin out to eat delicious food as soon as possible.
The few times I went shopping in the mall, it was just that I didn't buy anything for her. I even got a few sets of clothes for free.
Thinking of this, Xu Ziyin's eyes became sad.
It seems that I have never really fallen in love with this senior girl I fell in love with for the first time.
The experience of feeling good about oneself is nothing more than self-righteousness.
Seeing that something was wrong with Xu Ziyin's expression, Qin Feiyan rolled his dark eyes and said helplessly.
"What? Feeling guilty?"
"But speaking of which, I really want something. Do you want to give it to me?"
"What?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Ziyin turned around in surprise.
“Watch the road carefully!!!”
After scolding, Qin Feiyan complained.
"You are seeking death."
Hehehe giggled, Xu Ziyin looked forward, and then said sarcastically.
"Isn't this exciting?"
"Okay, I'll tell you when we get to the mall."
………
Twenty minutes later, Xu Ziyin and Qin Feiyan arrived at their destination.
Parking the car in the parking lot, the two of them walked side by side toward the mall.
The mall is not big.
It was evening, and there were many stalls selling snacks in the square in front of the mall.
Pointing to one of the stalls, Qin Feiyan smiled.
"No, that's the one."
"Every time I pass by here after get off work, I want to buy something, but the bus doesn't stop and I have to walk for a long time to get off at the previous stop. As a result, I never eat."
Xu Ziyin looked around in search of the sound, and his eyes suddenly froze.
"Red, sweet potato?"
"Yeah, don't you know how delicious roasted sweet potatoes are?"
"Not only do I like to eat it, but my sister also likes to eat it. When I was cooking when I was a child, I would always put a few in the wood stove. When the rice is ready, the sweet potatoes are also roasted."
"Forget it, even if I tell you, a second-generation rich man like you, you don't understand. If you can't eat it, I'll buy it myself."
"Eat, of course."
Xu Ziyin said the next sentence and ran to the roasted sweet potato stall without stopping and bought two.
Then the two of them squatted on the roadside and started eating deliciously.
I have to say that roasted sweet potatoes are really delicious. Peel off the crispy roasted skin and take a bite of the brown flesh inside. The aroma fills your mouth instantly.
Qin Feiyan's eating style was not elegant at all. He only finished half of the food in a few mouthfuls, and his teeth were covered with yellow sweet potato pulp.
Xu Ziyin was very happy to see it.
Hearing the laughter, Qin Feiyan rolled his eyes at him angrily and said disdainfully.
"What a joke."
"Isn't this how you eat sweet potatoes? Go buy some water."
Hearing this, Xu Ziyin ran to the small supermarket nearby to buy mineral water.
Speaking of which, Qin Feiyan still gave him the same taste as before, and it didn't seem to have changed at all.
Real and free.
Generally, when girls go out with boys, who would want to eat something like roasted sweet potatoes?
Not to mention the mess on his hands, his teeth and mouth were all sticky, which would undoubtedly lower the image of a little fairy he created, but Qin Feiyan didn't seem to care at all.
………
After eating the sweet potatoes and rinsing their mouths with mineral water, the two of them walked into the mall.
"Would you like to have dinner first?"
Looking at the rows of shops on the side, Xu Ziyin suggested.
Hearing this, Qin Feiyan shook his head.
"No, let's go straight to the movie. I'm already full after eating a sweet potato just now."
Yes, such a big sweet potato can indeed fight hunger.
………
Since it's not the Spring Festival yet, the movies released during this period are not very popular, and there aren't many people in the theater.
Xu Ziyin chose a literary film and then sat with Qin Feiyan in the waiting area waiting for the ticket checking to begin.
While waiting, Xu Ziyin couldn't restrain his curiosity and asked aloud.
"Feiyan, how could you think of agreeing to my date to watch a movie with you?"
After hearing Xu Ziyin's words, Qin Feiyan lightly lifted the green hair on his forehead and tucked it behind his ears, and then said calmly.
"Is there anything you can't agree with?"
"We have broken up, and we are not inseparable from each other forever. If we can't be lovers, we can still be friends."
"Isn't it normal for friends to watch a movie?"
Friends?
After carefully pondering the word "friend", Xu Ziyin's eyes showed a soft arc, and then he pointed at the claw machine beside him and smiled.
"Can you catch dolls? I told you that I am very good at catching dolls?"
"Tch, you think I'm a three-year-old girl."
Even so, Qin Feiyan still moved towards the claw machine.
………
Ten minutes later, Xu Ziyin's head was as big as a bucket.
The senior sister on the side was laughing so hard.
"Didn't you say that you are very powerful? Why did you lose dozens of coins and not catch any of them?"
"Can you do it, Xu Ziyin?"
"If it really doesn't work, forget it. Don't hold on. Check the ticket immediately."
After all the 100 coins in his hand were used up, and there was still no gain, Xu Ziyin twitched the corners of his mouth twice, and out of anger, he kicked the claw machine again.
Seeing this, Qin Feiyan was startled and quickly pulled him away.
"You're crazy, be careful if the staff sees it and makes you pay."
"It's really not my problem. This machine has obviously been adjusted by someone, and the claws are too loose."
Xu Ziyin was still trying to explain.
Qin Feiyan suppressed a smile and replied seriously.
"Ah, yes, yes, you are amazing. It's a problem with the machine."
………
………
Sitting in the dark cinema, Xu Ziyin finally calmed down a little.
The movie has already started playing on the big screen in front.
There is nothing outstanding about the movie.
The extremely clichéd domestic plot is a mixture of industrial saccharine and sadism. It is the kind of movie where you can naturally guess the plot behind it after watching the first part.
There were several young couples sitting in twos and threes in the theater. They didn't look like they were watching a movie. They were lowering their heads and biting each other's ears.
Xu Ziyin glanced at the senior sister beside him. Her eyes were quiet and she seemed to be fascinated.
Halfway through the movie, just when Xu Ziyin was falling asleep after watching it, the phone in his pocket vibrated, and a text message from his sister-in-law came over.
[Brother-in-law, the water pipe in the rental house where my sister lives is broken.]
【It's time for you to show your machismo.】
Xu Ziyin did not reply, but looked at the two messages in a daze.
………
………
The movie has ended and the lights have started to come on.
As he walked out of the theater, a gust of cold wind blew past him. Qin Feiyan subconsciously wrapped his coat tightly, and then turned to look at Xu Ziyin beside him.
"Okay, it's getting late. Let's just stop here today. If it's convenient, you can take me back. If it's not, I'll take a taxi myself."
"That must be convenient."
Xu Ziyin took her to the parking garage without saying a word.
………
Neither of them said anything on the way back.
Xu Ziyin looked ahead and drove seriously.
Qin Feiyan was sitting in the passenger seat, quietly looking at the neon flashing outside the window, lost in thought.
For about an hour, Xu Ziyin successfully delivered his senior sister to the gate of the community despite traffic jams in the city.
The community where Qin Feiyan lives is quite far from the company. Judging from the environment of the community, it seems that it has a certain age.
Just when Qin Feiyan was about to get out of the car, Xu Ziyin suddenly spoke.
"I heard that your water pipe is broken?"
"Do you want me to go fix it?"
Hearing this, Qin Feiyan immediately turned his head with suspicion.
There was a strange smile in those narrow beautiful eyes.
