Siheyuan: The romantic and suave Xu Damao

"Okay, then I'll try it." Lou Xiao'e responded excitedly, and then put the bracelet on her slender wrist.

Because her hands were small and soft, she was able to put the bracelet on her wrist easily.

However, the moment the bracelet touched her skin, Lou Xiaoe couldn't help but exclaimed: "Oh my god, it's so cold! Wearing it in the middle of winter is so chilling, and it feels weird and uncomfortable to wear it. Forget it, I won't wear it anymore."

As she said this, she was about to take off the bracelet.

Lou Xiao'e quickly and skillfully took the bracelet off her slender wrist, with a look of reluctance that was hard to conceal in her eyes.

As if she was about to part with a precious and beloved thing, she gently stroked the bracelet and then slowly handed it to Xu Damao.

"What's the matter? Are you not satisfied with this bracelet?" Xu Damao asked Lou Xiao'e with a puzzled look on his face.

Lou Xiao'e quickly shook her head and explained softly: "No, it's just that this bracelet feels cold on my hand, and it's quite heavy, so I always feel uncomfortable wearing it."

As she spoke, she raised her hand and rubbed the place where the bracelet had left marks.

"This thing must be very expensive, how about we sell it for cash?"

Lou Xiao'e suggested tentatively while carefully observing Xu Damao's expression.

Xu Damao frowned, carefully looking at the exquisite bracelet in front of him, and responded disapprovingly: "That's nothing, you will get used to it over time.

Look how beautiful this bracelet is. The style is not old-fashioned at all. It matches your temperament perfectly!"

He became more and more excited as he spoke, as if he had already imagined how charming Lou Xiao'e would look wearing the bracelet.

However, Lou Xiao'e remained unmoved. She spread her hands helplessly, sighed and said, "That's not true. My mother once told me not to wear anything too expensive, not even gold or silver jewelry, let alone a gold and jade bracelet like this."

After saying that, she lowered her head, looking a little lost.

After hearing this, Xu Damao nodded with sudden enlightenment, indicating that he understood Lou Xiao'e's concerns.

But soon, he rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "In this case, let's just sell this bracelet!"

"I can use the money I earn to buy a lot of delicious food. After all, nothing is better than eating something! Hehehe..."

Xu Damao said with a smile and patted Lou Xiaoe on the head.

Time passed quickly, and before they knew it, the two of them were chatting happily in the room and playing around for a while.

Just as they were immersed in joy, the hour hand quietly pointed to the number eleven. It was already eleven o'clock in the middle of the night.

"Let's go. I think Teacher Yan is probably standing at the gate waiting for me!"

As Xu Damao spoke, he picked up the slightly worn cloth bag beside him and walked briskly towards the door.

"Okay, let's get going!" Lou Xiao'e responded, then reached out to adjust her collar with an elegant and skillful movement.

Then, she slowly put on her gloves and hat. After everything was ready, she took a step forward and followed Xu Damao out of the room.

Xu Damao went back and forth twice, carefully packing the items he needed to carry into the basket on the back seat of the bicycle.

After everything was in place, he clapped his hands contentedly. Then, he grasped the handlebars with both hands, pushed hard, and the sturdy bicycle slowly moved forward.

Lou Xiao'e walked side by side with him, her eyes inadvertently sweeping over the full basket on the back seat.

"Da Mao, why did you load so many things? I have to take you with me later. Can the car handle it? Will it be too heavy?" Lou Xiao'e looked at the mountain of items in the basket and asked softly with a worried look on her face.

"Haha, just relax! This car is very sturdy. Even if you load more things on it, it will definitely not be crushed. And, even though there are a lot of these things, the weight is actually not that scary."

Xu Damao smiled nonchalantly and comforted Lou Xiao'e.

"Oh, I'm not worried about what will happen to the car, I'm just worried that I'll tire you out!"

Lou Xiao'e glared at Xu Damao coquettishly, her tone full of concern.

"Hehe, it seems you still don't understand me! I'm very strong. There's only a few things in the car, so I can easily put twice as many!"

Xu Damao had a smug smile on his face and chuckled in a low voice. While pushing the bicycle, he turned his head to look at Lou Xiao'e beside him.

Lou Xiao'e was graceful and pretty, with a smile on her face and a gentle look at Xu Damao. In this way, they slowly walked to the gate of the compound.

At this time, the courtyard door was only half open, and the faint moonlight shone through the crack on the ground. Yan Bugui stood there quietly.

When he saw Xu Damao and Lou Xiao'e coming, a smile immediately appeared on his face.

"Da Mao is here, Xiao E is here too." Yan Bugui greeted them softly, his voice so gentle as if he was afraid to break the tranquility of the night. After Xu Damao and Lou Xiao E left the yard, Yan Bugui carefully and lightly closed the gate, his movements so light that there was almost no sound.

"Hello, Teacher Yan." Lou Xiao'e smiled sweetly and responded politely.

"Okay, okay." Yan Bugui nodded repeatedly with a kind face. "It's getting late, let's set off quickly." After that, he turned over and got on his bicycle. He looked around and made sure that the surroundings were safe before he pedaled slowly and moved slowly along the street.

Xu Damao waited until Lou Xiao'e sat firmly, then he stepped on the pedals and rode to catch up with Yan Bugui. The wheels made a slight creaking sound as they rolled, which was particularly clear in the quiet night.

"Da Mao, when we get there, are you planning to take Xiao E to eat wontons?" Perhaps because it was too dark and the road was long and boring, or perhaps because he wanted to tease the young couple, Yan Bugui suddenly asked.

"Teacher Yan, if you hadn't mentioned this, I would have really forgotten about that wonton stand! Xiao'e, let me tell you, there is a wonton stand over there, and the taste is really good."

"Although it's a little more expensive than the daytime market, but after all, this is a ghost market! I will definitely take you there to taste something new later."

"Yeah, in that case, I really can't wait to taste it." Xiao E nodded excitedly in response.
