Moonshine Valentine: His Excellencys First Love Love Knot - Chapter 25
After all, Pippi didn’t follow Helan Jingting to Xianting Street that night.
Although Helan Jingting saved her heroically, what happened later made her feel that the situation was not good. So she lied about preparing for the exam, sent Helan to the mountain, ordered a taxi for him, and left. After returning home, she took a serious bath and checked the wound on her neck in the mirror. A shallow red line, like being drawn by a pencil, has completely healed. She gently stroked the scar with her hand, recalling the sweet marks between his lips and teeth, and the **** in her heart was softening quietly. But when she saw the featureless face in the mirror, she felt discouraged again, and all kinds of doubts filled her heart. Regardless of her appearance or family background, she is an ordinary girl, maybe what she can attract him is her own liver. Besides, she couldn’t be sure what would be under Helan Jingting’s handsome skin. A beast with teeth and claws? The ghost that lasts for a thousand years? Will he keep pestering her? Will she fall in love with him? If he really fell in love, would he eat her?
She was afraid that she would receive a call from Helan Jingting the next day, and would excuse her to save her and let her do various things, such as sun exposure. As a result, she was nervous all day, and Helan Jingting didn’t come to her at all. Next, there was no news of him for two months. When Pippi breathed a sigh of relief, he couldn’t help but be a little curious, and out of curiosity, there was a little expectation.
One day in mid-April, she was counting the journalists’ manuscripts in the editor-in-chief’s office, and the office phone rang. She picked up the receiver and declared herself professionally: “Hello, C City Evening News Chief Editor’s Office.”
“Hi, Pippi.” A man’s voice came from the other end.
“Hi” Pippi didn’t hear it for a while, because the background was a bit noisy, “Who are you?”
“Helan Jingting.”
“Oh! Hello, Helan!” For some reason, Pippi was a little elated when she heard his voice. When she noticed this, she quickly lowered her voice: “Is there anything wrong with me?”
“In the evening, I have a group of friends going to the forest park for a spring trip. Everyone has barbecues and plays ball. Many people are very lively. Would you like to come and play?”
“What time is it?”
“eight thirty.”
“Okay. Do you need me to bring anything?”
“No, you can come here. I’m sorry to inform you so late. It was originally next week, and some people said that they couldn’t come, so they made it in advance.”
“No problem. Is it the Guanyin Lake National Forest Park to the west?”
“Yes. I will pick you up at your dormitory at half past seven, okay? It takes about an hour to drive.”
“Okay, see you then.”
Putting down the phone, Pippi’s heart throbbed. She was a little nervous and a little excited. I have to admit that Pippi hasn’t dated for a long time. Except for the newspaper’s year-end party, I haven’t attended any parties. She is bored in the house every day like a true love-breaker, putting an end to all social interactions, except for studying, exercising, and Google Jialin’s whereabouts.
Before leaving get off work, Pippi quickly called Pepe to ask for assistance: “Pepe, I have a party tonight, how to dress, you come over and advise me!”
“Party! Are you willing to party now?” After meeting Pepe, Pippi knew that Party could be used as a verb. Pepe yelled on the phone, “I asked you to come to my party last week. Why didn’t you come? I told you to introduce someone to you, and you are not interested. By the way, are you interested now? I let him How about calling you? The conditions are very good. Dont worry. Dont worry, its not in the entertainment industry or in the publicity. The reporter is so careless, dont touch it. That person’s surname is Xu, he is a doctor and a brain surgeon, he is a young assistant. Chief physician, I have a house and a car, so I earn a lot.”
“I’m not interested. If the conditions are good, you want it yourself.” Pippi dismissed it as a good friend without any hypocritical entertainment. It’s not that Pippi doesn’t care about his life’s major events. After breaking up with Jialin, Peipei introduced Pippi to Pippi twice. The mans conditions are good, one is an editor at a TV station and the other is a physical education teacher at the university. Pippi bites his scalp to go on a blind date because of the face of an old friend. She also urged herself not to fall into the pit of Jialin for the rest of her life. A new life must begin. How hard it is to “get started”! The two men didn’t even look at Pippi. They met and talked a few words politely. They left without any more information, and didn’t even make a phone call when they turned around. Pippi was embarrassed, and Pepe was even more embarrassed, feeling that he had neglected his duty. After some careful analysis, she and Xiaoju also think that Pipi needs a change of taste. Maybe she is from the working class and would have a more favorable impression of men of working class origin. So, Xiaoju took the line and introduced his cousin Xiao Cai, a handsome taxi driver, to Pippi. Pippi also went to see him. The first few times he had a good impression of the man, he was humorous and powerful. He changed the gas for Pippi’s house several times, and the two even went boating in the park. Later, in a conversation, Pippi accidentally mentioned his postgraduate entrance examination, and the driver became uncomfortable. Then I lost contact. Later, when he inquired, he didn’t think that Pippi was bad, but he was afraid of women with high academic qualifications, and feared that he would have no status after he got married. Pippi felt very frustrated, and would refuse to meet him whenever there was such a thing in the future.
Jia Lin had to be blamed.
Jia Lin gave her too much unrealistic self-confidence, and Guan Pippi was just an ordinary girl.
Back to the dormitory, Pepe was already waiting for her at the door. Now they entered the door together and opened Pippi’s wardrobe. The two turned to and fro, and turned out a lake-green knitted long sleeve with a short skirt attached to it. This was bought when Pippi and Peppa were shopping together two years ago. At that time, it was a big price cut. It was still expensive when it was reduced to 50%. When I came back, I found that I could only do dry cleaning. Pippi regretted it endlessly and was reluctant to wear it. Just forget it.
Now she wears it in front of the mirror and takes a photo, she is really beautiful, and she looks taller and taller with her slender waist and long legs. Peppi Tippi rolled up a bun high behind her head, like a ballerina, showing her small slapped face and slender neck. He took small pliers and plucked her eyebrows, which made her scream.
“Such thick eyebrows, like shrubs, don’t you usually take care of them? It costs ten dollars to trim an eyebrow.” Pepe plucked out one side and dropped it, pulling it out until the eyelid was red and swollen before closing her hand. She called for Pippi to wash her face and make a facial mask. Finally, she painted a light makeup and put on a pair of long earrings.
The earrings are made by Pepe, which is just a pearl, but they have a long hanging string, which is a bit strange when the head is lowered to the shoulder.
“Should I change the earrings?” Pippi found a pair of coral ear buckles in her jewelry box, was stopped by Pepe, and threw it back.
“No, you have to bring this pair. These are my lucky earrings. Wearing them to see men is not profitable. Remember, no matter what you look like, you have to raise your head when you meet people there. Tall, as if you are a princess. If you find that the earrings touch your shoulders, it means that your head is not raised high enough. These earrings are used to remind you.”
It turned out to be this function. Pippi was silent. Since she was young, she was afraid of meeting adults, parents at home, teachers at school, leaders at work, at the bank, afraid of the counter, she didnt dare to find someone to reason about the wrong money when she bought things, she was always shy of quarrels. Look like. But people who know Pippi also know that her temper is actually not docile, it is volcanic, either silent or erupting. It usually looks sluggish, warm and swallows water, and once anxious, it is more fierce than anyone.
Since it is Helan Jingting’s party, leather shoes are absolutely forbidden to wear. Pippi changed into a pair of canvas sneakers, which he bought temporarily after get off work. They were made of simple materials and had a very unique style. The uppers were inlaid with a few pieces of turquoise.
Finally she found out her favorite perfume. Pepe said, “Don’t use it, you are good enough.”
Pippi sniffed his clothes: “Do I smell it? I didn’t put on perfume.”
“It’s very fragrant, or a good smell. What brand? I will buy a bottle next time?”
Pippi was dumbfounded, then relieved. Then, this is the fragrance of Helan Jingting. I can’t smell it, but others can detect it. Now I had to perfuse: “Maybe the sales lady in the mall sprayed it.”
Thankfully, Peppa did not continue questioning. Since two blind dates failed, Peppa has been cautious and non-commental about Pippi going to see any man unless the result is positive.
The sun set quickly. It was dark soon after Pepe left.
The bright color of the sky converged little by little, and the bell on the wall dimmed. Soon after seven o’clock, Pippi saw from the window a black car parked under the plane tree outside the dormitory building.
The spring in the south was already early, and it has been sunny for more than ten days. The temperature suddenly rises and the warm wind blows, which is the scene of early summer.
Pippi, who is afraid of the cold, feels that the weather is not so hot yet, but Helan Jingting is already dressed in summer. Pure white linen shirt, light gray slacks, barefoot wearing beach shoes, revealing white toes. The whole person looks black and white, clear and refreshing. About the time he took a shower, his body was full of moisture, mixed with the scent of shaving water, his hair was wet, black and shiny, I don’t know if he forgot to dry it, or he got Moss on purpose.
He was about to ring the doorbell downstairs, when he saw Pippi coming out suddenly, he took off his sunglasses and smiled at her.
In fact, Helan seldom laughs, and she doesn’t bend the corners of her mouth. Most of the time, her eyes move slightly, and her smile is like a bubble rising from the bottom of her heart, which is released instantly. Pippi was stunned, feeling that the smile seemed familiar, and even that face seemed to have been seen somewhere before. After thinking about it, he had no clue, and felt a little dazed.
“Hi.”
“Hi.”
“You didn’t make you wait long, did you?” he asked.
“No, you are too punctual.”
After the greeting, Gentleman Helan Jingting fully opened the car door for her, watched her buckle the seat belt, and then drove in the driver’s seat.
“Is it a big party?” Pippi asked.
“It’s not very big, it’s about twenty people.”
“A colleague from your museum?”
“No. It’s just some of my friends.” He said lightly.
Pipple said: “So you still have many friends. I always thought you only liked one person.”
“I like someone,” he said, “but I also have a few friends.”
Then, Pippi began to ask the question she cared most: “Will there be a lot of food?”
Whenever I heard that there was a dinner party, Pippi stopped eating at noon and kept his stomach till night. So she is really hungry now.
“Yeah. There are many things you like to eat: grilled chicken wings, grilled sausages, grilled fish, grilled crabs, grilled lobster, grilled vegetables, various snacks and fruits…”
“It sounds like a lot of meat, is there anything you like to eat?”
“I didn’t let them prepare. But I don’t mind eating some fruit with you.”
“Does your friend drink? I brought two bottles of wine.” Pippi pointed to a big bag in the back seat.
“Of course I would drink it. You are too polite”
The atmosphere is a bit strange. The two chatted lukewarm. Pippi suddenly felt that Helan Jingting was particularly friendly and polite today.
The car quickly left the city and drove west to a famous local scenic spot. It is a huge forest park surrounded by mountains and facing the largest freshwater lake in the province to the north. Because there is a Guanyin Temple on the mountain, it is also called Guanyin Lake. There is a white sandy beach by the lake and a lush mulberry forest next to it. Because it is far from the city, Pippi has only been there once, which was five years ago.
The car drove fast on the highway. Pippi noticed that Helan Jingting’s arm was able to move freely, and said, “Hey, your hand injury is healed?”
“All right.”
“Eyes too”
“Can I drive without seeing the road?”
“Correct.”
Nothing to say. Helan Jingting was not a talkative person at first. Every question and answer were very concise. Pippi felt a little bored, so he twisted the radio on the car and turned it to the shortwave station in E flat. A section of Schubert’s serenade, sobbing, sobbing like a whistle, makes people doze off. She gradually became sleepy and almost fell asleep. Not long after, the car drove into the forest park and zigzag forward on the dark forest path. Ten minutes later, the eyes suddenly lit up, but it was a silver beach. There was a bonfire blazing among them.
The parking lot is full of cars, as many as a dozen. All brands of luxury and shame, avant-garde style, bright colors. It seems that Helan Jingting’s Audi is very simple. He habitually held Helan Jingting’s hand as soon as he stepped out of the wagon, and then realized that he didn’t actually need to lead the way, so he quietly let go of his hand, and his palm was tight, but Helan Jingting held it.
The way he shakes hands looks natural, but Pippi feels that his entire right body is stiff. She turned her head and glared at him, He Lan Jingting smiled, still holding her hand.
Across the row of oak trees, a strong barbecue aroma pounced on you. At the same time, there were laughter and conversation of men and women.
This is the most bizarre party Pippi has ever seen. The people inside have their own characteristics, but they are all handsome men and beautiful women. Even if they are famous models and celebrities, they may not be brilliant. Thinking of this, Pippi was a little discouraged, and the earrings suddenly touched his shoulders.
At the same time, Helan Jingting’s fingers tightened, and even pulled her to her side.
Pippi couldn’t help but remember what Pepe had said, “When walking, if you are willing to push your shoulders back hard, it will appear that your chest is higher than usual, and your waist is thinner than usual.” Of course, straighten your chest and raise your head, smiling towards you. The gazes swept around to salute.
Helan Jingting took her to introduce to the people inside: “This is Miss Guan, who works in a newspaper.”
Pippi shook hands and greeted them friendly. Someone handed her a bottle of soda, enthusiastically pointed to her barbecue place, and said politely: “You don’t need to bake it, someone will be responsible for it. You can just take the plate and fetch it when it’s baked.”
Pippi looked in the direction he was pointing, and there were three ovens, each of which was in charge of a man. The long dining table is full of food. Pippi thought to himself, Helan Jingting would never eat these things. As long as you stay by the oven, you will get rid of him. She smiled and went to fetch the dishes, and was about to go to the fireside to line up. Unexpectedly, Helan Jingting was surprised that there was too much oily smoke there, so she refused to let her go. He took her dishes and said, “What do you want to eat? .”
In this way, he finally let go of Pippi’s hand. Pippi sighed softly and was free.
Freedom has its price. Pippi immediately felt lonely.
She thought quietly, what kind of friends would this be? Everyone looks very young, beautiful and rich, as if a group of heroes and heroines in romance films have come. However, they apparently come from different regions, speaking in Southern accent, and speaking in northern accent. There are two men who seem to be of Asian-European mixed race and speak Mandarin with a strong English accent.
Strangely, they seemed to know each other again, and they didn’t introduce themselves when they met.
As if only Pippi was new here.
Pippi looked around and found a large group of girls her age gathered not far away, and walked over.
The girls are all gorgeous and well-dressed, each holding a plate, eating and chirping and laughing. Seeing Pippi coming over, they all greeted her with a smile.
Pippi felt a little nervous, and his voice couldn’t help being restrained: “Hello, I am Guan Pippi.”
Everyone reported their names one after another. They are all very common and elegant names, such as “Fang Jinxue”, “Li Qingqing”, “Feng Xiaoyue” and so on.
One of them asked, “Pippi, how many years have you been?”
Pippi thought she was asking about her age, and hurriedly said, “I’m twenty-two.”
The group of people laughed: “Then you are the youngest.”
Another person whispered: “Helan just likes young children.”
Pippi was a little embarrassed. It seems that they are also very familiar with Helan Jingting. I looked at each girl carefully. Although they were all arrogant and charming, they didn’t look very old, they were only in their early twenties. A few look younger, only seventeen or eighteen years old. I can’t help but wonder, why is she the youngest? She is not too small, taller than half of them.
After thinking about it, she was shocked.
Could these people…are all foxes?
Pippi only felt a thud in his brain and almost passed out.
“Hi, Pippi, are you uncomfortable?” Li Qingqing asked, “Helan likes to drive fast, are you motion sick?”
“No…no.” Although he was calm, Pippi’s back was wet with cold sweat.
The next words proved that she was right.
“Pippi, you are really good. You can practice adult shape in only 22 years. Helan must have helped you a lot, right?” a girl wearing luminous silk interjected.
“Um…Yes.” Pippi’s voice was a little trembling. “How about you? How many years have you been?”
“People who come to this party have practiced for at least 500 years, otherwise they are not eligible. I just had enough this year.” The girl showed excitement, “I came by plane from Shenyang.”
It turned out to be a high-level gathering.
Pippi was so anxious that he just wanted to wipe off his sweat. Well, this time I’m at the fox den.
Seeing that many people have chicken wings on their plates, obviously no one is vegetarian, Pippi couldn’t help wondering: “Are chicken wings delicious? Why doesn’t Helan always like it?”
“Helan is the only one who is vegetarian here. We are shallow and can’t resist the temptation of chicken.” The big-eyed girl named Fang Jinxue said, “Oh my God, I don’t know how many chicken wings I have eaten, will I gain weight? what?”
“I can’t gain weight, it’s possible to grow chicken wings.” Another girl teased her.
“Sick Nizi, watch me steal your little Wu later.”
“What are you stealing? You can trade it with Bingxuan.”
Everyone laughed, and one of them laughed so hard that the chicken wings on the plate slipped into the sand.
“Oh, I don’t know if there will be a show tonight.” A voice suddenly sighed in the crowd, “The boss fools us every time–”
As soon as the words were spoken, everyone’s eyes gathered on Pippi’s face, and they stopped talking.
Pippi’s belly was already hungry, and she was uncomfortable to see from the left and right. Her legs couldn’t help but feel weak, so she climbed on a willow branch and stared at them, “What’s the matter? Is it related to me?”
Suddenly, someone whispered: “Oh my God, look, she has Helan Meizhu on her wrist!”
Suddenly several people clutched their chests and shouted: “Ah! My God! My God! Is this true? Is this true?”
“It must be his. Can the taste be fake? And his beads are red.”
