Genius Girlfriend - v4 Chapter 136
In mid-November 2015, Lin Zhixia returned home happily.
The postdoctoral work came to an end, and Lin Zhixia felt unprecedentedly relaxed. She slept at home all day, and by the way adjusted her biological clock.
The next morning, Mom and Dad went to the vegetable market and bought a bunch of vegetables, fruits and seafood.
The family’s supermarket is temporarily closed. Mom and Dad have been busy in the kitchen for most of the day to make a very delicious “seafood feast”, including steamed crabs, oyster sauce scallops, cold squid, spicy clams… and Lin Zeqiu’s favorite Stir-fried beef with green peppers, Lin Zhixia’s beloved shrimp and corn dumplings.
Lin Zeqiu came home from get off work, and as soon as he opened the door, Lin Zhixia greeted: “Brother, come and eat. Today’s dinner is very rich.”
The chill of late autumn and early winter swept across the city, and the cold night wind poured into the corridor. Lin Zeqiu’s home was a warm and comfortable scene, full of smoke and fire. The steaming food swept away his exhaustion. He sat at the table, and Lin Zhixia picked him a fat and tender crab: “Brother eat crab.”
“This is a sea crab,” Dad said with a smile on his face, “Qiuqiu likes seafood, don’t you? Open your belly and eat it!”
Lin Zhixia held the bowl in both hands and exclaimed: “It’s so delicious.”
My mother asked again, “Xia Xia knew it was delicious before she even moved her chopsticks?”
Lin Zhixia said honestly: “When I was in the United States, I occasionally dreamed of eating at home. In my dreams, I ate very full. I woke up in the morning and found that my stomach was groaning with hunger, and there was only cold in the refrigerator. Milk and bread.”
She opened the shell of the crab: “The dishes prepared by Mom and Dad have a special taste. I cook by myself and eat out in restaurants, but I can’t feel the same…”
Tears gleamed in mother’s eyes. She stretched out her finger, wiped the corner of her eyes, and said, “Xia Xia is home. Mom and Dad will cook for you. Eat whatever you want. Our family’s life will be better.”
“Mom don’t cry.” Lin Zhixia handed her a napkin to her mother.
Dad explained: “Your mother was so excited. The children are old and promising. Mom and Dad are really happy… Qiuqiu has found a good job, and Xia Xia is going to be a university teacher…”
Speaking of this, Dad drank happily and drank another glass of wine. He patted Lin Zeqiu on the shoulder: “Qiuqiu, Dad knows that you worked hard…for this family, you didn’t stay in Beijing.”
Lin Zeqiu said unhurriedly: “Beijing housing prices are too expensive, and it is difficult to get an account. I am doing well now, and the year-end bonus is tens of thousands.”
Dad was surprised: “Qiuqiu earns a lot of money, much better than Dad.”
Lin Zeqiu said nothing. He glanced at Lin Zhixia.
Lin Zhixia picked up a small hammer and smashed the crab tongs severely. She struck two crabs in succession, and the crystal clear crab meat was collected by her into a porcelain bowl, which was as high as a hill.
Lin Zeqiu was about to ask her why she didn’t take a bite, so she picked up the bowl of crabmeat and put it in front of her parents: “My family’s life is getting better. My brother and I can make money. Reluctant to eat, I think you haven’t moved your chopsticks to catch crabs.”
Dad answered “OK” one after another, but didn’t say a complete sentence. He scooped up a spoonful of crab meat, tasted it carefully, wiped his face, and said with emotion from the bottom of his heart: “Hey, Xia Xia is back, and I feel at ease with your mother and your brother. Our family of four is reunited. .”
Lin Zhixia casually said: “My brother works in the Software Technology Park, which is very close to the University City. I bought a house in the University City. That is our new home for a family of four.”
Lin Zeqiu echoed: “Parents can retire early.”
Lin Zhixia smiled: “Yes, mom and dad should retire, and my brother and I will support you.”
“Hey, where can I do it?” Dad vetoed without hesitation, “Your mother and I are still young and can make money.”
Mom and Dad agree. Mom said slowly: “Xia Xia Qiuqiu, your brothers and sisters have just entered the society, and your parents are not as good as their parents. They have no connections and backgrounds. If they can’t help you two… just save more money for you.”
Dad answered, “Yes, I want to save you money.”
Speaking of “saving money”, my father looked at him and seemed to remember something. He put down his wine glass, turned his head and told Lin Zhixia that in the past year, on major holidays, Jiang Yubai would come to visit their home and bring all kinds of gifts. For example, during the Mid-Autumn Festival this year, Jiang Yubai delivered moon cakes, osmanthus cakes, hairy crabs and olive oil.
In front of Lin Zhixia’s parents, Jiang Yubai never mentioned luxury goods, and gifts were mostly practical.
When Jiang Yubai saw Lin Zhixia’s parents, he would also take the initiative to talk about Lin Zhixia’s situation in the United States and explain Lin Zhixia’s work-this is the news that Lin Zhixia’s parents always want to hear, and they pay a lot of attention to their daughters. .
Jiang Yubai’s efforts lasted for a whole year and successfully impressed Lin Zhixia’s father.
Therefore, at the dinner table tonight, my father said a few good things to Jiang Yubai, and his mother praised Jiang Yubai a little bit. Lin Zeqiu still had a serious attitude of “that kid failed the inspection period”.
Lin Zhixia buried her head in eating, thinking of him all over her heart.
That night, Lin Zhixia sent a WeChat message to Jiang Yubai and said without any cover: “I miss you so much.”
“I’m waiting for you,” Jiang Yubai replied, “The new home is decorated.”
There is a high-end residential area near the University Town, and the housing price per square meter is very expensive. Jiang Yubai spent huge sums of money to buy a 800-square-meter top-floor mansion, and invited the best designer team in the country. After a total of more than a year of renovation, it was finally completed this summer.
Not long ago, Jiang Yubai officially moved into this house. He invited Lin Zhixia to visit his home, and Lin Zhixia readily agreed.
On Sunday morning, Jiang Yubai drove to the Ancheng community in person and successfully received Lin Zhixia. For eleven months, he and Lin Zhixia did not meet. One of his ways to relieve his lovesickness is to trim the branches and leaves of Camellia in the office.
Jiang Yubai often dreamed of Lin Zhixia.
But he said nothing.
He behaved very calmly.
He took Lin Zhixia back to his new home.
After passing through the hallway, they came to the living room. The bright sunlight penetrated the rose skylight, and the huge and wide 360-degree panoramic terrace attracted Lin Zhixia’s attention. She walked quietly on the delicate soft carpet and whispered: “Your new home is really beautiful.”
Jiang Yubai stood behind her: “This is also your home.”
Lin Zhixia stopped in his footsteps.
Jiang Yubai called her again: “Xia Xia.”
Lin Zhixia turned to face him: “Jiang Jiang.”
He laughed and muttered: “Lin Lin Lin Lin Lin knows Xia.”
Lin Zhixia’s voice is extremely soft: “Jiang Jiang Jiang Jiang over white.”
This was originally a secret code they invented when they were young, but when they grow up, it is like a whisper between lovers, and there is always a sense of inexplicable ambiguity.
The cold wind blew in from the sky garden, with a refreshing fragrance everywhere, Lin Zhixia sat on a soft chair on the spacious terrace, pointed to a bottle of red wine on the wooden stand nearby, and said, “I am in a good mood today. Let’s have a drink at the bar. “
Jiang Yubai asked her: “Have your drink increased?”
Lin Zhixia leaned close to him, seeming to be talking to him, but in fact she kissed him on the cheek secretly-this intimacy of this intimacy was like a switch that triggered Jiang Yubai’s fierce reaction. He tightly wrapped Lin Zhixia’s waist, buckled her on the chair and kissed her deeply. At this moment, the feeling of loneliness that he could not meet for eleven months turned into a turbulent sentiment, almost completely overwhelming Jiang Yubai. Between the kisses, Lin Zhixia also said: “You…you have become so active and enthusiastic, I like it.”
Jiang Yubai stopped all his actions: “I can be more active, do you want to give it a try?”
Lin Zhixia laughed lightly.
She put her hands on his shoulders: “Do you often miss me?”
“I think about it every day,” Jiang Yubai looked at her, “how about you?”
Lin Zhixia stared into his eyes and saw her reflection in his eyes. His appearance is really affectionate, incomparable, as if there is only Lin Zhixia in the whole world, he created a new world by watching her. Her heartbeat was very steady, and it was filled with a light and sweet feeling, as if it was filled with sweet honey.
So Lin Zhixia took his finger and pointed to her own heart: “Of course I miss you. I not only miss you with my head, but also use it here.”
After listening to her, Jiang Yubai shook her right hand and held it to his lips. He lowered his head and kissed her fingertips lightly. From the index finger to the little finger, the whole process was silent, warm and solemn, pious and lingering. Lin Zhixia’s heart suddenly lit up a fire, and the blazing flame burned instantly. At the highest point.
Lin Zhixia panted slightly and said without hesitation: “I’m back home, we won’t be separated anymore, we can meet every day.”
“Can you move here?” Jiang Yubai asked her.
Lin Zhixia avoided his direct stare: “I told you that I want to buy a house by myself.”
Jiang Yubai stood up from his seat. He took out a bottle of champagne and two goblets, and handed them to Lin Zhixia. He poured the wine for Lin Zhixia himself. The champagne bubbled clear and delicate. Lin Zhixia smelled the wine and took a sip. .
“Drink it well,” she said.
Jiang Yubai clinked glasses with her: “You can move in with your family, your mom, dad and brother…” He leaned back in a soft chair, tasting wine slowly, and looked at the distant sky: “I probably count yours too. family.”
These words made Lin Zhixia startled again.
Jiang Yubai seemed to be saying, I belonged to you a long time ago.
Since Lin Zhixia stepped into his house, his set of words and movements completely disturbed Lin Zhixia’s thoughts. She suffocated the champagne in the glass in one breath, and was a little drunk, telling him : “Yes, you are my good friend, my favorite person, my family…”
Before she finished speaking, Jiang Yubai approached her again and induced her to turn her head and kiss him. This deep kiss contained the sweetness of champagne. She was very drunk, and her hands wrapped him tighter.
Lin Zhixia fell on the soft bench, her black hair spread out. The blue sky and white clouds were the background behind Jiang Yubai. He pressed her on her body, and especially formally suggested: “Let’s sleep together tonight.”
Lin Zhixia almost agreed.
But then she remembered again, last Christmas, in the hotel bath, the scene she saw was beautiful and shocking. So Lin Zhixia was not only curious, but also a trace of worry and panic: “Will it hurt? I am very afraid of pain.”
Yes it is.
Lin Zhixia is very afraid of pain.
She has not only video-like memories, but also sensory memories.
Jiang Yubai hesitated. In that matter, he had no experience at all. He just wanted to try Lin Zhixia, but he was also afraid that he would hurt Lin Zhixia. After a lot of deliberation, he put aside his selfish desires and made up his mind: “Forget it, let’s go step by step.”
That night, Lin Zhixia did not go home. She stayed at Jiang Yubai’s house, shared a bed with him, chatted till midnight, and talked about her career plan.
In June of this year, Lin Zhixia submitted the letter review materials for the “Qingqian” project, and her interview was scheduled at the end of November. If all goes well, in March next year, her name will appear on the “list of shortlisted candidates.” In September next year, she will enter the best university in the provincial capital, get a formal teaching position, and receive generous research funding.
In fact, the staff of the university’s personnel department has contacted Lin Zhixia.
She was included in the “Frontier Interdisciplinary Research Institute”, and the dean and deputy dean were very optimistic about her.
The only problem is that Lin Zhixia is still too young. When she starts enrolling graduate students next year, her students will be basically older than her.
“My age,” Lin Zhixia said, “still a little troublesome.”
In the darkened bedroom, Jiang Yubai comforted her in a low voice: “You are so smart and hardworking. You have been studying in the UK for three years and have not returned home during the winter or summer vacation. A lot of time is spent academically…”
Lin Zhixia turned over and leaned into his arms and heard him say: “You can do all the jobs. I believe in you and support you.”
Lin Zhixia was touched: “Okay.”
