The modern me and the Republic of China her

Chapter 504 Hot Potatoes (1)

Near noon, there was another sound in the quiet yard.

It was Chen Xing who first noticed the two of them whispering by the door.I ate a meal in the morning and took a good night's sleep. I slept contentedly and was full of energy.

When Qilan was not at home, he found a book and sat cross-legged under a tree, slowly flipping through the pages.

The little white dog and the big rooster were fighting around the tree, and the chickens were flying like dogs, but there was a lot of life, so I didn't bother to care about it.

Rarely have a leisurely half day.No school, no exams, no worries.Just find idle books to pass the time.

There are cakes baked by my mother all morning in the pan.Each piece is uniform in thickness, crisp on the outside and soft on the inside.The stuffing is also freshly made.

I went home and memorized some before New Year's Day, and it was very popular, and I didn't enjoy it.

Hearing that Lin Mi proposed to go to the street, he couldn't help frowning, threw the half-turned-book to his feet heavily, stood up and hurried to the door.

She is really not sensible enough to let his good brother walk through the street full of policemen for a piece of bread, absolutely not.

"Miss Lin, there are freshly baked cakes at home. Don't rush to eat the bread today."

The girl in front of her was a little embarrassed, and she held her boyfriend's hand even tighter.

Qilan smiled at him understandingly, "Brother Chen, I promise Mi'er to go out for a walk and be back soon."

His brother stood still, using his not-so-thick skin as a "rogue" to block the way to the door.

"No! Brother Zhang and I are still waiting to discuss some important matters with you. Bread was originally invented by foreigners. Our own steamed buns, flower rolls, pancakes, fried dough sticks and siu mai, which one is not good?"

He wanted to educate Lin Mi well last night, but his heart softened for a moment, and he couldn't say a lot.

I didn't expect this girl to push her feet.If you fall into the swamp, it's fine to sink yourself, but you have to hold the hand of the rescuer to sink hard, and others really can't see it.

There was a hint of suppressed anger in his words, and Qilan could hear it clearly.

Brother is for the sake of his life safety, there is nothing wrong with it.

It is human nature for a girlfriend to just want to buy a piece of bread to eat.

In this way, he became the one caught in the middle in a dilemma.

He coughed a few times and prepared a bowl of water to level it up:

"Stop by the ballroom to visit an old friend of ours. Brother Chen, shall we go together?"

Although he didn't mention the name of the person being visited, Chen Xing's heart beat uncontrollably.

Chris has been away from here for a while, and there has been no news.

"Can I stop thinking about an unreachable woman—"

But he couldn't lose all the memories of her: her blue eyes, her golden curly hair, her hearty laugh, and the way she swayed when she walked.

It's not that easy to forget someone.

Eat and sleep in the hut.Almost every day, I have to say her name silently in my heart for several rounds.Except for the time to spread out the test papers and answer questions in the final exam, all I want to do is to win the first place.

Qilan is indeed a good brother, even with his eyes closed, he could guess that he would rather suffer alone than speak out in front of his mother.

Chen Xing didn't dare to visit Chris alone.The upright nature of a foreign girl, if she is rejected, she may not even be able to make ordinary friends, and self-defeating behavior will not happen to a young man with a high IQ.

It was not easy for Qilan to find a justifiable reason, to help resolve some embarrassment in face, to gain courage, but to retreat temporarily.

"You two go," he wiped his trouser pockets anxiously, "I have to go to work. It's too cold, come back early and have a good meal, and go to hell with all your troubles!"

"Aren't you going to see her with us?"

Lin Mi leaned over curiously and interjected.

Chen Xing showed an insincere expression.He couldn't help but move his feet a few steps towards the door.

"I really can't get away, Miss Lin, please give Chris a roll of pancakes. She felt good after eating it last time."

Both of their eyes fell on Chen Xing's face.They looked at him, made him feel embarrassed, hurriedly shouted "wait for me", and ran into the kitchen.

When he reappeared, he had an extra bamboo basket in his hand, which was covered with a cotton pad to keep warm, and the porcelain plate was vaguely visible on the edge.

Once a carefree boy becomes careful, no one can compare to him.

Lin Mi took the bamboo basket and smiled mischievously at him, his two curved thin eyebrows became more lively.

"With me here, she must finish eating happily. Brother Chen, don't worry!"

Qilan also hurriedly cooperated, rushing to the room in two or three steps and dragging out a bicycle that she had been reluctant to ride for a long time.

In addition to falling a lot of dust, the two big wheels are not deflated at all.

"When we ride a bicycle, we can hang a bamboo basket on the front of the bicycle, so that the pancakes inside will not fall out."

Seeing their serious attitude towards pancakes, Chen Xing was so moved that he couldn't stop sniffling, almost bursting into tears.

"You two come back early, say hello to Chris for me, and ask her if she wants to go to the countryside for a few days."

"As ordered!"

Qilan bid farewell with fists in his hands, and after placing the bamboo basket properly, Lin Mi couldn't wait to get on the bar of the bicycle.

He took the bicycle he hadn't ridden for a long time and drove her slowly through the north wind.Fearing that her ears would get cold, I specially wrapped it with a scarf.

"I haven't ridden for a long time, is Mi'er comfortable?"

"Very good, same as before."

Pedestrians on both sides of the road, telephone poles, and high and low houses all receded from sight and replaced with new ones.

The well-known girls' middle school in the capital is like a small family jade, hiding in the alley where two tree-lined avenues meet.

The surrounding environment is considered good, there are no noisy vegetable markets, and there are not many shops.

The dance hall across the street is only open at night, and hardly affects the female students in class during the day.

Familiar streets, and a school where both had been away for months.

Qilan stopped by the side of the road, turned around and asked Lin Mi, "Where is the bakery located?"

"On the left side of the school."

"To the left?" He looked in the direction of her finger and almost didn't laugh out loud. "That's not a bakery, it's the school's newly built library."

Lin Mi glanced at it, and it was indeed a big wooden sign.Since Principal Qin took over the girls' high school, he has been very strict in academics.In just over two months, a small library was added.

Before leaving school, I heard the monitor Yu Fen excitedly mention it, but at that time she was playful and didn't care.

"I haven't been there for a long time, I can't remember clearly. The school has really changed a lot."

She stared at the school gate of the girls' high school, unwilling to look away for a long time.The school has been closed for winter vacation for several days.In order to let the girls study with peace of mind and not be affected by the singing and dancing hall across the street, Principal Qin specially thickened and raised the walls of the campus.

In this way, even if she tried to stand on tiptoe, stretch her neck, and stare through her eyes, she couldn't see much familiar sight.Only some corners of the roof can be seen behind the high fence.

Qilan watched quietly with her for a while.

The most youthful memory of the two of them was left here. If it hadn't been for the Lin family's misfortune, she would not have dropped out of school, nor would he have resigned.

The days are still the same as before, slowly, just like the raindrops dripping from the eaves when the rain is over and the sky is sunny.
