Why it never ends

Chapter 702 Peas
Hesta's thoughts had already drifted elsewhere. At this moment, a belated realization penetrated the fog in her mind like lightning - the slightly weird white cat appeared in her mind again.

She finally realized why she kept encountering the cat everywhere on the ship.

I'm afraid it's not just Anna's cat...it's also Anna's eyes.

"It's okay to have such eyes," Shi Pingchuan suddenly thought of a funny quip, "because-"

"When did it happen?" Hesta interrupted him.

"Ok?"

"When did you change your eyes?"

The atmosphere on the table suddenly became a little subtle. Hesta's tone was not harsh, but it was not polite at all.

Methnan recalled for a moment, "About... four years ago."

Four years.

Hesta picked up her plate thoughtfully and was about to leave when Xu Ruyi stopped her.

"...Jian?" Xu Ruyi looked at Hesta's hand, "You don't have to worry about this, just put it on the table."

"It's okay, I'm going to put the dishes in the dishwasher," Hesta replied, "I saw there was a dishwasher in the kitchen this afternoon, it's just a matter of convenience-"

"That dishwasher is broken," Ding Yuqing raised her head, "It's been broken for several months."

"Leave it alone, go and have a rest." Xu Ruyi said with a smile. At this point, she suddenly remembered something and turned to look at Mei Sinan, "It is indeed a bit late today, how about you stay at home for the night? Jia Li lives in the master bedroom, it’s a big place, you two will settle down first——”

"No," Ding Jiali shook his head, "I'll take Sinan back to his place in a while. He can't stay with me."

"……why?"

"Haha, have you seen Sinan's clothes?" Ding Jiali raised his shirt sleeves as a demonstration, "His skin is very delicate. Only by wearing this kind of mulberry silk fabric can he not be allergic, otherwise he will be red all over. rash!"

Only then did Xu Ruyi suddenly realize, "I said the material of your clothes looks a bit special. It doesn't look like something you like to wear at your age. So that's why..."

"No, no," Mesnan's expression became a little embarrassed, "Cotton clothes are also fine, but they have to be made of pure cotton... It can't be said to be an allergy, but thick fibers can easily increase friction-"

"You can't sleep in my room anyway," Ding Jiali said with a smile, "My room is too rough."

Ding Yuqing thought for a while, "...Isn't this the Princess and the Pea? Oh...the Prince of the Pea?"

Everyone at the table, including Mesnan himself, couldn't help laughing.

A slight slamming of the door sounded at this moment - only then did everyone realize that Hesta had disappeared from everyone's sight.

"...She is the veteran, right?" Shi Pingchuan looked at the direction Hesta left, "I discovered that she is the most arrogant among the people at this table."

"What kind of soldiers are medics? There hasn't been a war in the third district recently. They are just doing exercises at most, right?" Ding Jiali said with a smile. He looked at Mei Sinan, "What were we talking about earlier... Huh? Sinan?"

Mei Sinan came back to his senses, "What?"

"what are you thinking?"

Mei Sinan quickly looked into Ding Jiali's eyes, "...well, I just saw a beautiful matchbox over there."

"Matchbox?"

"It's over there, on the coffee table." Mei Sinan stood up and walked towards the other end of the living room, and sure enough he got back a small box with a rather unique shape.

On the front of the box are two blue boys holding torches, and the burning flames form the words "luminous and hot". "Here, this is it."

"Is this beautiful?" Ding Yuqing looked at him with some suspicion, "This is a souvenir given out for our school anniversary today - it's so ugly."

"...Can you give it to me?" Mesnan asked.

"You can take it if you want," Ding Yuqing replied, "But what do you want this for?"

"I have a friend who likes to collect this," Methnan smiled sheepishly, "Thank you."

……

Early the next morning, Hesta still woke up early and wrote her diary and today's to-do list at her desk just like yesterday.

Outside her door, Xu Ruyi got up earlier, and Ding Yuqing and Ding Jiali were still the first two people in the family to sit at the table for dinner.

Their breakfast consisted of a large bowl of thick yogurt mixed with chopped kiwi fruit. There were four bowls of nuts on the dining table, including walnuts, peanuts, almonds and pistachios. The two of them each added a few spoonfuls to the bowls according to their preference.

After eating a large bowl of nut yogurt, Ding Jiali soaked an extra bowl of oats in milk.

While waiting in front of the microwave oven to heat up, he suddenly turned around and looked at his sister's face.

Ding Yuqing noticed the gaze, "What are you doing?"

"...I feel like Sinan didn't pay much attention to you last night. I was quite surprised."

"He pays attention to what I do."

Ding Jiali shrugged, "I just feel that if you have a brother-in-law like him, you won't have to pick me up all the time when you study in the evening."

Ding Yuqing choked and coughed on the spot. After she calmed down her breathing, she sneered, "Are you so anxious to marry someone? Are you afraid that that person is a liar with some motives - he will deceive you into bankruptcy?"

The microwave dinged, and Ding Jiali held the bowl and sat back down next to her sister with a smile.

"That's not the case. Brother, I also have a way of making back tunes. When will I bring unknown people to my house for dinner?"

"...That's true," Ding Yuqing lowered her eyes, "I've never seen you make a useless friend."

Ding Jiali laughed out loud, as if this was a great compliment. He stirred the cereal with an iron spoon while scrolling through social media, "Of course, otherwise why would I be your brother?"

Xu Ruyi finished her regular morning work and walked out of the kitchen. She did not take off her apron, but sat down directly opposite the brother and sister.

"What are you talking about and smiling so happily?"

"We are talking about Sinan." Ding Jiali said with a smile, "I said that if we can bring him and Xiaoqing together, it will take 20 years of hard work -"

"This man is very strange." Ding Yuqing said coldly, "Don't bring him to your home in the future."

"Ah? Weren't you also very interested in others last night? You even teased them as 'Prince of the Pea'——"

"Okay, stop talking about this," Xu Ruyi glanced at Ding Jiali with a reproachful look, "Your sister is still young, and her main focus now is on her studies."

"Mom, just tell me based on your feelings. What do you think of Sinan?"

"It's a good boy, but his life experience makes people feel sad... Fortunately, he can see things openly," Xu Ruyi sighed softly, "Please bring him to your home more often in the future. It's so pitiful for him to be so alone."

"Is he pitiful?" Ding Yuqing opened her eyes wide. "How can he be pitiful? Is he pitiful when he is rich and rich, or is he pitiful when he is young and enjoys a free life? Mom, what are you talking about? Why don't you pity me?"
