Late at night, Tongdao Xu was walking alone on the sidewalk, heading towards Wu Yali's home.
His expression was very calm, but his brows were slightly furrowed. He held a cigarette between his fingers and puffed on it from time to time. About two hours ago, he went to Xi Dongyang's home.
I didn't see Xi Xiaoqian, I only saw Xi Dongyang's grandfather and grandmother.
The two elderly people were very anxious and restless at home. They already knew the news that Xi Dongyang was seriously injured and sent to the city hospital.
When Comrade Xu was talking to them, he heard that Xi Xiaoqian took the money to the city hospital overnight, so only two elderly people were at home tonight.
Comrade Xu was not very good at comforting people, but seeing that the two old men were gray-haired and still so worried and frightened, he tried his best to say some comforting words.
Before leaving, he left a thousand yuan and said to the two old people: "If you need any help, wait until Xiaoqian comes back and ask her to find me! If I can help, I will do my best!"
He still has compassion after all.
He originally thought that the difficult life for so many years before his rebirth had already made his heart cold and hard, but seeing the state of Grandpa Xi Dongyang and Grandma tonight, he found that his heart was not that hard.
When he returned to his residence, he had already gone to bed.
But after going to bed for a long time, I still couldn't sleep.
Xu Tonglin, who slept in the same bed as him, had been snoring for a long time, but Xu Tongdao was not sleepy at all. Then he got up and put on his clothes, and now he was walking alone on the street late at night, heading towards Wu Yali's house.
figure.
He couldn't explain why he wanted to go to her in the middle of the night.
Just for her body?
Or do you want to go to her to find some spiritual comfort?
He couldn't tell the difference.
He only knew that he wanted to see her and do something with her at this time.
"Boom!"
He didn't knock on the door, but knocked on the window glass of her bedroom on the first floor. He knocked twice. There was no movement inside, so he knocked twice more.
"Who is it?"
Wu Yali's alert inquiry came from inside the room.
"I!"
Comrade Xu responded.
There was no response from the room again, but Xu Tongdao heard the sound of her getting out of bed and the sound of slippers scraping against the cement floor.
He threw away the cigarette butt in his hand, crushed it with his foot, coughed lightly, and walked to the gate to wait.
While waiting, a mantra flashed in his mind - open sesame.
Then the door opened.
Wu Yali, wearing a set of lake green pajamas, appeared in front of him, her brows slightly furrowed and her eyes confused, "Xiaodao? Why are you here so late?"
Tongdao Xu didn't say anything, just walked in, closed the door for her, raised his head slightly to indicate to her the stairs, and walked to the stairs first.
Wu Yali probably understood, she hesitated slightly and followed him.
Although the two had not known each other for a long time, they actually had a tacit understanding at this time, and they went to the leaky room on the second floor one after another.
Tongdao Xu silently spread out the quilt on the bed and laid it out. When he finished laying the quilt and turned to look at Wu Yali, he saw her face red, standing there biting her lips slightly, wringing her two white jade-like hands.
together.
"Otherwise... you should go back! It's not good for us..."
She spoke softly, hesitantly, and didn't seem very firm.
Tongdao Xu still didn't say anything. He frowned slightly and walked over to her. He reached out and hugged her head and kissed her on the lips.
At this moment, silence was better than sound, and she did not push him away.
…
"Are you worried?"
Wu Yali, who was sweating all over and lying side by side on the bed with Xu Tongdao, looked at Xu Tongdao, who was still frowning slightly, and asked softly.
Xu Tongdao shook his head slightly.
He couldn't tell what was bothering him.
I just feel unhappy and a bit bored.
"You talk less."
Wu Yali said again.
Xu Tongdao glanced at her and knew that she was right. Since the last time he had sex with her, he had become less talkative in front of her.
It should be because of the many obstacles between them and the changes in their relationship that he always doesn't know what to say to her.
Ask her if she is happy?
He couldn't ask.
Asked her how she was doing recently? He felt there was no need to ask, because her life was very regular and boring. In addition to taking care of the children and doing housework every day, she just had to eat and sleep. It was such a regular and boring life with no changes at all.
What's there to ask?
Fall in love with her? Talk about their future?
He felt that it was too fake. There were too many uncertainties between them. They also knew each other very well that it was not because of love that they could sleep together. So who were they kidding when they started talking about love?
But since she was interested in chatting with him at this time, Xu Tongdao felt that he should cooperate.
After thinking for a while, he suddenly asked: "You are living alone with Yaya. Are you tight on money? Do you have a source of income? Do you want to go to work?"
Wu Yali was a little surprised.
He smiled and said: "It's okay! I'm not short of money, but... I'm a little tired of taking care of my children at home every day. I feel like I'm almost out of touch with this society. Sometimes I do think about it.
Going out to find a job might make my life more interesting, what? Why did you suddenly think of asking me this question? "
Tongdao Xu nodded slightly and believed her words.
Because she usually has a mobile phone to use, and if she can use a mobile phone these days, she usually doesn’t lack money.
"It's nothing. Since you're not short of money, forget it. Just pretend I didn't say anything."
Comrade Xu wanted to remove this topic.
But when Wu Yali heard what he said, she suddenly became interested. She crawled onto his chest, moved her face closer and asked, "Huh? What do you mean? What did you want to say to me?"
Before Comrade Xu could answer, her eyes lit up slightly and she asked again: "Do you have any job you want to introduce to me? What job? Tell me quickly! Tell me quickly!"
Comrade Xu was a little helpless, "You are not short of money, so don't ask!"
Wu Yali: "No! I want to hear it. Tell me quickly! Tell me quickly!"
Tongdao Xu was afraid that she would keep asking, so he said, "I just rented two stores recently and planned to open a small store. I was worried that you would have no income and live a poor life, so I wanted to ask you if you are interested in working. Since you
If you’re not short of money, just pretend I didn’t say anything.”
Wu Yali didn't seem to hear his last sentence, but asked enthusiastically: "Really? I heard from my mother that you rented a store. By the way, what kind of job did you want me to do just now? Waiter? Or something else?
?”
"Cashier! I just help collect money."
After saying that, Comrade Xu smiled and said jokingly, "Of course, if you want to be a waiter or a dishwasher, that's fine too!"
Wu Yali rolled her eyes, and the smile on her face slowly grew bigger, "The cashier is not bad! I'm not tired, and I'm free. I can really do this job. How about you let me think about it for two days? When I think about it, I
I’ll tell you whether I can do it or not.”
Comrade Xu agreed.
He originally wanted to help her earn some money, and he really felt that having a beautiful woman like her as a cashier in his store would improve the image of his store and attract more diners.
