Chapter 20: The Hand that Holds the Son
As soon as he walked into the corridor, it was pitch black, and Lin Yifei could see clearly. He was just surprised that Xiao Yuerong could walk as if nothing had happened, as if the night could see things.
Xiao Yuerong in front suddenly stopped, reached out and slapped hard. After a crisp sound, she was calm.
Lin Yifei had no movement at first, so of course he did not suspect that this was an ambush signal. However, after the girl slapped her palm a few times, she couldn't help but ask, "What are you doing?"
"The damn building lights are broken again," Xiao Yuerong muttered in a low voice, remembering that Lin Yifei might not understand, and explained: "This building has been built for many years. A few years ago, the lights in the corridor were equipped with voice control. Oh, it will automatically turn on as soon as you pass by. I didn't expect that it won't work soon. I need to slap my face."
A smile in the darkness, her eyes had adapted to the darkness. Seeing the boy staring at him silently, although she thought he might not be able to see him clearly, Xiao Yuerong was a little shy.
Although I have been in society for several years, there are many people who pursue her, and Dr. Qin from Anping Hospital has that meaning. Of course, the girl knows everything, but she just refuses silently. Only by staying with the boy can she feel very comfortable. This may be the person on the other end of the legendary Moon Old Red Line. Thinking of this, the girl felt shy again.
"Now it seems that it's not enough to slap your hands." Seeing that Xiao Yuerong didn't say for a long time, the young man finally laughed and said, "Why didn't you say it earlier? I'll remember to bring a big drum next time I come to your house."
Xiao Yuerong chuckled, "Don't be so exaggerated," she patted her little hands twice without giving up, and finally stopped her unnecessary efforts. She turned around and looked at Lin Yifei helplessly, reached out and said, "Take my hand."
The boy hesitated for a moment, but still stretched out his palm and held the slender and warm palm, but there was no thought in his heart.
"I'll take you away," Xiao Yuerong's mouth smiled a little sweetly, "I can leave here with my eyes closed."
Lin Yifei was a little surprised. Although it was easy for Ye to see things and see them, the girl's familiarity was because of her habits. Perhaps the people always had the kind of perseverance and could only silently adapt to things that could not be changed.
The two walked forward silently, feeling the body temperature of the boy beside them. In the dark corridor, Xiao Yuerong actually felt like she was walking towards the palace. Although this feeling made her blush and her heart beat, the sweet mood made the girl hope that the building would have hundreds of floors.
From time to time, I reminded, "There is a turn in front. There is a bicycle. Let's walk aside. It's Uncle Li's from the third floor. There is a pickle jar in the front two steps. Be careful not to kick it over. That's Grandma Wang's treasure."
He covered his mouth and smiled, "Whoever kicked over the pickle jar, Grandma Wang is anxious with whom?"
The boy also smiled, and the girl suddenly exclaimed softly, "Be careful of the salted fish on her head." Seeing Lin Yifei shorten, the girl smiled and said, "Who told you that he was that tall? Mr. Zhao's salted fish is a standard line of 1.8 meters. Our building is not that tall."
Lin Yifei shook his head with a smile, "This is not what I think."
The girl suddenly thought of something and asked in a low voice: "By the way, how tall were you eight hundred years ago? Are you also a handsome guy?"
"Farewell?" Lin Yifei smiled self-deprecatingly, "At that time, we didn't have the time to comment on it. Only those playboys had the mood, but," he smiled slightly, "It seems that no one said I'm ugly."
Seeing the girl smile gracefully, she bloomed like a gloomy orchid, "I think you must have been so cool eight hundred years ago."
The boy smiled and refused to answer, "I don't know if it's cool or not. As for height, it's about one head taller than now."
"Oh my God," Xiao Yuerong gestured for a moment with her hand in the void. She said in surprise: "That's not much taller than me," she lowered her head and smiled, and thought to herself, your height is just right now.
"I can eat a lot of food," Lin Yifei smiled and said, "Have you arrived yet?" The corridor was full of debris, and walking through the dark night was also a test.
"My house is on the sixth floor, and you have to go through the test of honeycomb coal twice," Xiao Yuerong said with a smile.
The honeycomb coal on the fifth floor occupied almost half of the corridor. The owner of the honeycomb coal obviously wanted to test the fat man's patience. Lin Yifei was not fat, but almost squeezed Xiao Yuerong's body. The girl did not hide, and held his hand firmly without any intention of letting go. There was a sweet smile on the corner of her mouth.
"Here," Xiao Yuerong patted her chest and knocked on the door. She suddenly realized something and let go of her palm, but felt a little lost. Suddenly, a sentence I read in high school surged into my heart, "Hold my hand and grow old with me."
Being able to hold hands with your beloved for a lifetime and spend your whole life with your beloved should be the greatest happiness in your life. He secretly looked at the boy, but in the darkness he gave people a feeling of tranquility and tranquility.
After looking around, he found that the corridor on this floor was very clean. Lin Yifei asked in confusion: "Where are your things, why don't you put them out?"
Xiao Yuerong smiled, "My family is poor, unlike the neighbors downstairs, who have so many family backgrounds."
Lin Yifei smiled and knew that this careful and considerate girl was not like those neighbors, as if she was afraid that she would suffer a loss by putting something in the corridor. The corridor was originally a place for people to store groceries. Perhaps she also thought about others everywhere on weekdays, just like her work.
"Yuerong, why did you come back?" The door sounded, and the light inside was a little dim and not dazzling. The middle-aged man's tone was a little anxious, but he had no intention of blame, because he knew that his daughter was sensible, and there must be her reason to come back so late. Suddenly seeing the boy beside her, the middle-aged man was slightly surprised, and his questioning eyes had already fallen on his daughter.
"His name is Lin Yifei, mine..." Xiao Yuerong blushed, "My friend, Yifei, this is my dad."
The middle-aged man's eyes lit up, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Welcome, welcome, Yifei, right? Please come in quickly."
"Hello Uncle Xiao." Lin Yifei shouted like a big boy next door, integrating into this era, and various polite names are certainly inevitable.
The middle-aged man enthusiastically let Lin Yifei in, pulled him to sit on the slightly old sofa, and looked around. He saw two bedrooms and one living room, not big, and there were many things, but he gave people a feeling of neatness and exquisiteness.
Looking at the boy looking at the room, the middle-aged man looked at his daughter with deep meaning, "It's all done by Yuerong, Yifei, where are you working?"
"I am a student, from the third grade of Zhejiang Qing University." I thought to myself that it is different if there is a woman. There are so many things here, but Xiao Yuerong can arrange it. If it is placed in Daniu and her own apartment, it will be similar to a doghouse.
The middle-aged man had a hint of surprise in his eyes, "Are you still a student? Zhejiang Qing University, Yueru is also from that school." His daughter had never found a boyfriend. This was the first time she brought a boy here. She thought she was from the same unit, but perhaps she had a tacit friend relationship, but she didn't expect that she was still a student.
"Dad, he was injured before and was staying in our hospital," Xiao Yuerong explained with a red face. Of course she understood what her father meant. "We happened to meet each other today and came back together. On the way, we met a pickpocket and was caught. I helped to testify and went to the Public Security Bureau. It was a little late. He couldn't rest assured, so he sent me back."
A trace of worry flashed through the middle-aged man's eyes, but it disappeared in a flash. "Yuerong, be careful in the future. If you can ignore this kind of thing, you will ignore it. Those pickpockets have gangs, more than one person. Besides, even if you are arrested, it will be closed for a few days at most. There is still only one educating him after a meal. But if they are asked to target you, there will be no less trouble in the future."
Xiao Yuerong pouted and said, "Why are you all the same idea? No wonder you let pickpockets run wildly."
"Don't say that my dad is nagging," Xiao's father also tried his best to persuade his daughter, "Okay, okay, I understand." The girl also knew that her dad was thinking about her, "Dad, have you had dinner?"
"I've eaten a bun of instant noodles," Xiao's father smiled bitterly, "I just worry that you, the girl, won't come back yet, and I don't have the heart to cook."
"How can I just eat instant noodles?" Xiao Yuerong said dissatisfiedly, and suddenly looked at the room, "Where is sister, will she not come back today on weekends?"
"She called just now and said that it was not long since the school started. It was rare that the library was free and there was no need to spend money to buy books. She wanted to read more books at school." When she mentioned another daughter, Xiao's father was full of pride and suddenly remembered something, "Yifei, you are also from Zhejiang Qing Dynasty. You will have to take care of Yuerong's sister if you have the chance in the future."
Lin Yifei smiled and nodded, "It is appropriate for friends to take care of each other. Yueru really needs help in the future. Just say it, I will definitely not stand back on my side if I can help."
