Everyone got together to talk and laugh. In the evening, they sent off the Qian family's children and went to the dance hall to drink.
Zhu Yucheng observed Cheng Li from time to time and found that he was not discouraged or angry.
It's just that he drinks very vigorously and downs a glass directly, which is not in line with his usual drinking habits.
Cheng Li drank a lot, but he was not drunk.
Zhu Yucheng was drunk later, but he still admired Cheng Li in his heart. This man is really terrible. He is so self-disciplined that he thinks about everything. It is really amazing.
Yun Qiao followed Xi Lanting back home directly.
On the way, Yun Qiao didn't say much at first, but then Xi Lanting took the initiative and said, "Can you do hair embroidery?"
"meeting."
"Won't you make one for me?" Xi Lanting asked again, "For my birthday, you only gave me a pocket watch."
Yun Qiao: "I'm afraid you won't like it."
"I like everything you gave me," he said.
Yun Qiao wanted to say, you are lying, you have never worn a pocket watch, but he saw Xi Lanting put his hand into the collar of his vest, dug into his shirt pocket, and took out a golden pocket watch.
He handed it to Yun Qiao.
He had no body temperature, and even the pocket watch he wore close to his body was cold and not warmed by his body.
"I didn't lie to you. A little fool like you is not worth lying to." Xi Lanting said.
Yun Qiao was surprised and took it.
The pocket watch was indeed a gift from her, and it also had a little cat head. There was also a small photo inside, which she and Xi Lanting had taken while sitting side by side on the sofa.
She smiled very hard.
Looks beaming with joy.
Yun Qiao blushed for a moment, surprised and happy: "Our little one."
"If you like, take it over," Xi Lanting said, "You can exchange it for a pair of hair embroidery."
Yun Qiao nodded vigorously, returned this to him, and said with a smile: "You can keep this, I will make the hair embroidery for you, but you have to wait, I have to make it complicated."
Xi Lanting said hello.
Sure enough, he put the pocket watch back into his shirt pocket.
Yun Qiao felt for a moment that he might be trying to coax her, and she also felt that he might like her a little bit.
Just a little bit.
"It doesn't matter, he will like me very much in the future." She comforted herself, and for a moment she was full of strength, and no longer felt so miserable.
Xi Lanting was beside him, slightly raising the corners of his lips.
He blocked it with his hands and said in a low voice: "Child!"
Yun Qiao didn't hear clearly: "What?"
"It's nothing, I think you're stupid." Xi Lanting said, and then he changed the subject, "Cheng Li's house is very nice, and it's close to the small mansion given by the Xi family."
After hearing this, Yun Qiao was stunned: "Huh?"
Only then did she vaguely remember that when she cured Governor Xi, the old lady gave her a small mansion. But Yun Qiao had never seen it, and the key and land deed were still in the small box, misplaced somewhere.
She completely forgot about it.
She doesn't even remember the house number.
"What about this matter? I wish I had known that I would sell it to my second brother." Yun Qiao said.
Xi Lanting: "..."
After this incident, the relationship between Yun Qiao and Xi Lanting was no different. It was almost the same as before.
However, Yun Qiao is no longer pessimistic.
Cheng Li was busy and didn't bother to ask Yun Qiao because he wasn't here to play. Zhu Yucheng had too many things to do on weekdays and didn't bother to invite her. Only Xu Yinjie made a phone call by chance and harassed her.
Yun Qiao had nothing to do and went to Xi Lanting's place again. He saw a woman standing at the door of Xi Lanting's courtyard, looking at his courtyard with a very focused expression.
"Who are you looking for?" Yun Qiao asked from behind.
The woman turned her face.
Yun Qiao immediately lowered his eyes slightly, he actually knew him.
