Kiss the moon

But this time he came purely to buy books. Based on the previous encounters and the experience of squatting last week, he speculated that Chen Qingxing only had time to come to the bookstore on weekends.

The final assignment of a professional course is to write a book report on "The Moon and Sixpence".Although Gu Xingle didn't like to read extracurricular books since he was a child, he would still do the homework assigned by the teacher seriously.

When Gu Xingle took the book he found to the reading area and was about to read a few pages in the air conditioner, he saw his ideal seat, which was the first time he came to sleep on his stomach, and there was already someone there.

It was Chen Qingxing.

It took me a week to see each other, but today I got here without any effort.Gu Xingle felt that her pursuit was so smooth that it made people want to sing.

Seeing that Chen Qingxing was seriously flipping through a thick hard-cover book, there was also a comic book with a pink cover next to it.Gu Xingle moved over quietly, but there were still a lot of vacant tables in the reading area, he didn't feel embarrassed to share the tables, and was afraid that he would disturb his reading, so he sat beside him.

Before sitting down, Gu Xingle took a glance at the comic book - "Girls Love Scheming".

Gu Xingle seemed to hear something shattering, and he knew that it was the shattering of Chen Qingxing's serious image in his heart.I was still a little dazed when I sat down, and made a little noise when I put down the book in my hand.

Chen Qingxing turned his head when he heard the sound, and saw Gu Xingle sitting side by side at the table next to him, with a suspicious expression on his face, and peeking at him from time to time.

Following his gaze, Chen Qingxing saw the comic book, which was left behind by Li Ranran when he had just packed up the books that were scattered in the reading area.He guessed that the child's inner activities might be a little rich at the moment.

Not too distracted, Chen Qingxing continued to read the book at hand.After a week of continuous rotation, Chen Qingxing only had time to take a break after the end of the project, and continued with the previous reading plan by the way.

Gu Xingle, who originally planned to read the book carefully and finish his homework early, has no motivation to open the book at all.

He sat on the chair with his waist straight, opened the book casually, took a bookmark and put it aside, and put on a full reading posture.But in fact, they have been secretly looking at Chen Qingxing.

"Why does this man look so good-looking." It wasn't the first time he saw his face, but he still couldn't help but take a look and look again.After looking closely for a while, Gu Xingle noticed that his lips were a little dry and flaky.

After thinking about it, he picked up his mobile phone and stood up, scanning the order code on Chen Qingxing's table with difficulty from his direction.After reading the menu several times, I finally ordered him a glass of lemonade.

The part-time employee quickly brought over the lemonade. When he saw Chen Qingxing, he was taken aback and slandered: "Why does the boss need to place an order and pay for drinking water?"

When Chen Qingxing took the lemonade and looked at Gu Xingle, he saw a face bursting with laughter, which was so brilliant under the illumination of the warm yellow reading light.

Chen Qingxing nodded to him, and said "thank you" with his mouth.

Seeing that Chen Qingxing didn't refuse the lemonade he ordered, Gu Xingle was overjoyed. He felt that this was a great improvement, so he smiled even brighter.

Chen Qingxing lowered his head and continued to read the book in hand, glanced at the lemonade on the table, licked his lips that were indeed dry and uncomfortable, picked it up and took a sip.

Seeing Chen Qingxing licking his lips, Gu Xingle swallowed and licked his own lips unconsciously.When he realized what he had done, his face turned red and he cleared his throat unnaturally.

Seeing Chen Qingxing's gaze drifting towards him, he turned his head pretending to be calm, resting his chin with his hand, fixed his eyes on the page of the book, and frowned, as if he was being caught for doing something bad. The look of thinking.

Chen Qingxing finished the last page of the book, took a sip of lemonade, got up and prepared to return the book to its original place, and brought the girl's manga with her.

Gu Xingle took the time to go to the cashier to pay the bill.Standing at the door, just as he stuffed two copies of "The Moon and Sixpence" into his schoolbag, Chen Qingxing opened the door and walked out.

"What a coincidence, we meet again." Gu Xingle went up to meet her.

Chen Qingxing stopped when he reached the side of the road, and looked down at him, "Isn't it a coincidence? You're not waiting for me this time?"

Hearing his rising tone, Gu Xingle grabbed the shoulder strap of her schoolbag in embarrassment, "It's really a chance encounter this time. I'm here to buy books and I have a homework to do."

"Thank you for the lemonade." Chen Qingxing thanked.

"No, no, by the way, your lips are a little chapped, do you want to put on some lip balm? I put it on, it's sweet, not surprising."

"Huh?" Chen Qingxing folded his arms and looked at him with interest.

"Ah, I don't mean anything else! I'm prone to cheilitis in winter, so I always keep it in my schoolbag. I still have a new one here, let me give you one."

Realizing that what he just said was ambiguous, Gu Xingle wanted to bite his tongue off.While talking, he reached into the side pocket of the schoolbag, unzipped the zipper, and took out a piece of lipstick.

"Thank you, no need." Chen Qingxing refused directly.

Gu Xingle thought for a while and said, "Didn't you thank me for the lemonade just now, then if you accept this, I will count it as your thanks."

Where is the way for someone to thank him is to accept the other party's kindness again, Chen Qingxing saw that he was serious, and there was nothing he could do about it, so he accepted it.

"Mr. Chen, can you...can you give me your business card?" That way you can know his work.

"I don't have a job today, and I haven't brought it with me." This is not a lie.

"Then, can you leave me your phone number?"

"Wechat can contact me."

"Then why can't you read it back?" Gu Xingle complained softly.

But Chen Qingxing still heard it, "I don't know what to reply."

"Ah?" Gu Xingle was stunned for a moment, "That's right, as long as I know you saw it."

"I'm going home, goodbye." Chen Qingxing was about to leave again.

"Well, well, good night, Mr. Chen." Gu Xingle said reluctantly.

"Good night." After saying that, Chen Qingxing raised his legs and walked across the road.

Gu Xingle watched his tall and straight back slowly walk away, and the white breath he exhaled slowly dispersed.

A balloon led by a little girl rubbed against Chen Qingxing's shoulder. He turned sideways slightly, watching the little girl bouncing far away with gentle eyes, and then put his hands in his pockets and walked slowly until he disappeared into the passing crowd. .

In these few encounters, Gu Xingle has seen him seriously reading and thinking, the way he smiled at the end of his eyes when he teased him jokingly, the way he refused coldly and distantly, this is the first time he has seen someone look at someone with such gentle eyes.

"We must let him look at me with such gentle eyes," Gu Xingle thought in his heart, "We have already said goodnight to each other today, which is another big improvement."

The author has something to say: Thank you for stopping by.

than heart~
