Rebirth: Never Live Up to You - C77
“Don’t invite us up for a cup of tea.”
When she got out of the car, the silent Lu Ziyun suddenly spoke up. She counted the floors and realized that Chi Yinan’s family lights were on, so she agreed.
He Dongyan walked at the back, she and Lu Ziyun walked side by side in front. The floor wasn’t very high, and the elevator arrived very quickly. When they got out of the elevator, she turned around and said to them, “I’ll take you guys somewhere else to drink!”
Lu Ziyun and He Dongyan didn’t understand what she meant by that. They saw her ring the bell at a big door, and then a dog jumped out. Its forelegs were resting on Su Wenjin’s body, and it wagged its tail ingratiatingly.
“Big brother.”
He Dongyan and Lu Ziruo called out for their big brother at the same time. When Chi Yinan saw who it was, his expression changed slightly.
At this moment, he was wearing a housedress and holding an apron in one hand. Lu Ziteng caught sight of it with his sharp eyes and screamed at him if he wanted to cook. He snorted in dissatisfaction.
“If you don’t come in, stand outside.”
When he glanced at Su Wenjin, his gaze softened a little.
She was the first to enter, and when she passed by the kitchen, she smelled the smell of instant noodles. However, she didn’t say it out loud, and when Lu Ziruo passed by, he sniffed and ran into the kitchen. He came out with a pot and took off the lid.
She was so unyielding that her appetite was aroused. Lu Zicheng was a step ahead of her, and he was already preparing to devour the food with his chopsticks, “Big brother’s culinary skills are so exquisite that I can’t stand it. Let me give you a taste first.”
He Dongyan coughed twice and then sat on the sofa. She looked at Chi Yinan’s expression and couldn’t understand it; it was just a bowl of noodles. Was there really such a murderous look, but thinking about it, this man’s heart was like a needle in the ocean, he couldn’t figure it out, he couldn’t figure it out, he couldn’t figure it out.
From time to time, she would praise Chi Yinan’s craftsmanship. She really wanted to laugh, it was just a bowl of instant noodles, as long as his IQ was normal, he would be able to cook. However, it was rare for Chi Yinan to be praised again, so she quickly followed suit.
“Just drink it. Once you’re done, get the hell out of here.”
Chi Yinan threw two cans of drinks on the table and gave her a box of yogurt. She didn’t open it, and after sitting for a while, she found an excuse to go back.
After Su Wenjin had left, He Dongyan changed his posture on the sofa, looking a little sloppy. Chi Yinan’s expression didn’t change at all. Lu Ziyun walked over from behind the table: “Big brother, you plan on chasing sister-in-law again.” This was a definite sentence, not a question. Everything that had just happened had already been proven. Lu Ziyun felt a little heavy in his heart. His heart felt a little stuffy, and he also felt that his head was hurting.
“Yes, Su Wenjin will marry me sooner or later.”
He Dongyan smiled first. He held the opened drink in his hand and raised it in the air, “Big brother, let me toast you first. Early on, I’ll have a good ending with sister-in-law.” He kicked Lu Ziruo again from below. He cried out in pain and raised his drink as well.
When Chi Yinan saw that Lu Ziyun was being so tactful, he didn’t mind the fact that he had been eaten. Instead, he acted like a big tail wolf and asked Lu Ziyun: “How does it taste? “Is it delicious?”
Hearing this question, Lu Ziyun was flustered, and he stuttered as he nodded his head.
Chi Yinan smiled, gently following the fur of the sheepdog at his feet and said slowly, “That is my family’s Warm Gold’s dinner, it’s all made according to its taste, I didn’t think you would like it so much.”
The Warm Jin that was present was definitely not the Su Wenjin that had just left. He curiously asked, “Who is this Warm Jin that you were talking about?” There are some things it’s better not to get to the bottom of it, or you won’t find the world so good.
Chi Yinan pointed at the giant dog at his feet with his big hands, then pulled its claws and waved them towards Lu Ziyun, “Warm Jin, good boy, greet uncle.”
He Dongyan couldn’t hold it in any longer. He spat out a mouthful of beverage onto Lu Ziruo’s face.
When Lu Ziyun left, he intentionally glared viciously at the sheepdog that had caused him to be sprayed with blood. He intentionally rolled up his sleeves in an attempt to hit it, but the dog had almost bitten him in the end.
That night, Lu Ziteng fell into insomnia because he had a nightmare. In his dream, he had really been bitten by the Chi Yinan family’s shepherd dog. After being scared awake, he could no longer sleep.
He thought he must be sick.
City S was snowing, this wasn’t the first snow of the year, but because of the coming Christmas, it had become more romantic. Almost all the colleagues in the company went out on dates tonight, but she seemed a little lonely, walking along the sidewalk with her umbrella after work, the snow falling all over the sky, not a single sound on the umbrella. She liked the snow, which could make the world quiet and beautiful, holy, and also enrich the poet’s romance.
Since it was Christmas, there were many pedestrians on the street, not the least bit dampened by the cold weather. The Christmas tree in front of the shopping mall was glowing under the lights, and the falling snow was also folding its colors under the lights. She stopped and looked at the electronic display screen upstairs of the mall building.
“I’m sorry.”
“I’m fine.”
Pushing her way through the crowd, she decided to have a good dinner tonight. She was conflicted over whether she should eat western or Chinese food, and thought back to last year’s Christmas when she and Chi Yinan had been bathing in a hot spring in the Scarlet Mountain Range. It hadn’t snowed that night; it was a moonlit night, but the temperature on that day was very low.
She raised her head and saw a large signboard not far away. It was even for lunch. Just as she was about to go over, she was suddenly greeted by someone calling her name.
She turned around and searched the crowd for a long time but still couldn’t find anyone she knew. She thought she had misheard, so she turned around and continued forward. Before she could take a step, her voice rang out again.
She did not turn around. Her back felt the sounds become clearer.
“Su Wenjin, I like you.”
Emma, what’s wrong with the 19th floor? I can’t even use my handwriting.
She frowned, looking at the man kneeling on one knee, holding a fresh flower in his hand, her mind a little muddle-headed. Looking at his round face, she thought for a long time, and remembered that he was a colleague of hers from the department next door, but she couldn’t call out his name.
“You get up first.” She was a little scared.
“Su Wenjin, I like you. I want you to be my girlfriend.” As the bouquet was passed up again, the man’s face was filled with an intense desire, his cheeks were red, and his voice trembled when he spoke. She took a step back and said with an estranged smile, “I’m sorry, I can’t accept this.”
“Why? I’ve asked around but you don’t have a boyfriend.”
Could it be because he doesn’t have a boyfriend yet? This man’s brain was really not a normal weirdo, so he decided to stop talking and turned around to leave. The man became anxious, he grabbed her clothes and worriedly said, “You still didn’t agree to my request, Su Wenjin, we …” We can try to get along. ”
“I’m sorry, I’m not interested. Please let me go.”
“But I… “I really like you.”
“I really have to thank you for your love.”
Su Wenjin had never met such a brainless man. In Chi Yinan’s words, this kind of man should be dragged to fill the sea.
“Can we be friends first?”
The man was still struggling behind her. She walked faster and faster, almost running through the crowd, and finally got rid of the man, but she tripped and fell directly into the snow. The snow on the ground was not thick, and fortunately, she was wearing a lot of clothes.
“Su Wenjin, there’s no need to be so formal when meeting each other.”
The sheepdog even licked her knees in a friendly manner. She let out a snort, crawled up from the ground with her bag in hand, and patted away the snow on her body. She felt that they had met on a narrow road, so it was not appropriate for them to go out.
She did not speak to him except with a snort. She walked around him and was stopped by the sheepdog, which was against her.
“Warm Jin, it’s Christmas today. Why don’t you treat me to a meal?”
He was wearing a black down jacket today with a dark blue scarf tied on top. The leather gloves in his hands were bought by her last year’s work, and because there was a loop of fur around his wrist, he had always thrown it away in the cloakroom with disdain.
She chuckled, “Chi Yinan, as a capitalist, you want to treat me to a meal from the working class. Isn’t that kind of you!”
“Then I’ll buy you a meal. Lead the way, anyone you like.”
She choked and did not say anything for a long time. When she realized that she had foolishly fallen into the circle set up by him, she became even more agitated.
Chi Yinan followed her into the Italian restaurant with the dog. Because it was Christmas, the hall was full of people. It was not as quiet as it used to be.
“Is there only one room left?” she asked the lobby manager.
“Yes, there are still two rooms.”
She did not want to be in the same space with Chi Yinan, so her disguise and defense were nowhere to be seen.
“Let’s have a private room.”
“No.”
The snow was still falling outside, but it was much smaller than before. She opened her umbrella and turned around, but the man standing on the steps had a tense expression on his face, which was obvious that he was unhappy. She did not seem to be afraid, and waved at him.
Chi Yinan’s breath did not last long as he walked down the steps to her. Her nose was red from the cold wind, and she felt a bit of heartache and wanted to reach out to warm up. She had already turned around, and her voice came from the wind: “Chi Yinan, treat me to sweet potatoes.”
“Unhygienic.”
She didn’t take his words to heart at all. She skipped to the side of the road to buy one, and her uncle picked up the biggest one for her, saying it was both fragrant and sweet. She found it funny.
After searching in her bag for a long time, she couldn’t find it. She clearly remembered putting it in this compartment, but she suddenly remembered that she was hit by someone just now. Could it be that it was stolen at that time?
“There are seven of them.”
Chi Yinan took out 10 coins and held them in his hand. She walked until she was tired and sat on a chair by the side of the road and started to eat them piece by piece, just like what her uncle had said. She looked at Chi Yinan, who was playing with a shepherd dog on the other side of the table, and swallowed the food in her mouth: “Chi Yinan, thank you for your sweet potato.”
“Yes.”
“Chi Yinan, we are divorced.”
Upon hearing this, he answered with a “En”.
“So don’t treat me again in the future.”
“Su Wenjin, what kind of logic is that? Can’t you remarry just because you got divorced?” Chi Yinan hated her to the point that his teeth itched. He wanted to be clear with her. This woman was not cute at all.
“Nope, Chi Yinan.”
“That may not be so.”
“I really wonder where your confidence comes from.” She was still eating the sweet potato and decided to ignore him. Chi Yinan felt that he was going to freeze to death. He turned around and saw that she was eating so deliciously. His heart skipped a beat.
“Wan-Jin, let’s make a bet, whether you still love me or not.”
“Don’t be crazy, Chi Yinan. That thing never appeared between you and me.”
Chi Yinan didn’t listen at all and said, “If these three coins are all positive, we will remarry. If there is a negative side, we will continue being friends.”
She did not say anything, neither did she say yes or no. She turned her head to see that he had really tossed it upwards, and was as excited as a child who had picked up a treasure. She guessed that all three of them were positive.
“Chi Yinan, you’re so bored.”
“Warm Jin, even the heavens wish for us to remarry, don’t you see?”
Chi Yinan stood up in excitement. At this moment, he seemed to want an answer from her, so she suppressed her agitation and continued eating the sweet potato, but suddenly, she heard a groan from him, and the sheepdog started whining. She raised her head, and realized that there was snow on Chi Yinan’s head and clothes, and it turned out that the snow on the street lamp could no longer hold on and fell right on top of his head.
