After both of them got busy, they had less time to see each other. In order to get used to school life as soon as possible, even in the afternoon when there was no class, Ling Xi would not leave work early like other teachers, but stayed until the students finished school.

He was correcting homework at school that day, and he didn't go home until after eight o'clock. There was no one at home except Zhang Ma and Uncle Sun.Ling Xi was hungry and wanted to ask Mama Zhang if she had anything to eat.

Mama Zhang came out of the room and apologized again and again, "Because everyone said they wouldn't come back for dinner, I didn't buy vegetables. Why don't you give Mr. Ling a bowl of noodles."

Everyone does not include Ling Xi, Ling Xi understands very well, Zhang Ma is usually close to Mei Xuelian, she is not enthusiastic about Ling Xi, and it is okay for everyone to eat together, Ling Xi is the only one left tonight Seeing that this newcomer into the Zhou family is not particularly favored, Zhang Ma decided to be lazy.

Given her attitude, Ling Xi couldn't say much, and she wouldn't really ask Mama Zhang to cook for him without winking, so she smiled and said, "Don't bother, I can just cook a bowl by myself, Mama Zhang You go to work."

Zhang Ma pretended to push a few words, and then went back to her room.

Ling Xi rolled up the sleeves of her sweater and dug out noodles and vegetables in the kitchen. The water had just boiled when she heard movement outside, followed by Zhou Chenwang's voice, "What delicious food is Mama Zhang doing, I'm starving to death .”

Before the words were finished, the person had already appeared at the door of the kitchen. Looking at Ling Xi in the kitchen, he was quite surprised, "Why are you, Mama Zhang?"

"Mother Zhang said that everyone didn't come back for dinner, so I didn't buy any vegetables. I cooked noodles. Would you like a bowl?" Ling Xi said while pouring noodles into the pot.

Ling Xi took off his coat and wore a white knitted sweater with sleeves rolled up to the elbows, exposing his slender and fair arms. After the noodles were cooked, he broke the green vegetables into small pieces with his hands. The water from the faucet flowed through Ling Xi's hands. Zhou Chen was inexplicable. Feeling a little thirsty, he responded blankly, "That's troublesome."

After speaking, she didn't leave, but leaned against the kitchen door and stared at Ling Xi's movements.

Ling Xi took two more eggs from the refrigerator and cracked them into the pot. At the same time, Zhang's mother finally found that Zhou Chenwang had returned, and hurried over and said, "Xiao Wang is back. Have you eaten yet? Let me know what you want to eat." Do it for you now."

Zhou Chenwang glanced at her coldly, "Didn't you buy any vegetables? Ling Xi is cooking noodles, and I eat noodles."

Zhang Ma's face turned pale, she laughed twice, hurried into the kitchen, and was about to snatch the job from Ling Xi, "Let me come, Mr. Ling, be careful of getting your clothes dirty."

Before Ling Xi could speak, Zhou Chenwang said, "I'm going to eat Ling Xi's cooked noodles today."

Mama Zhang wiped her hands on her apron at a loss, nodded in agreement and walked out. She didn't know what to do, and scolded herself ten thousand times in her heart. go home.

"Mother Zhang." Zhou Chenwang stopped her, "I see that you have been working hard recently, or I will give you a long vacation and let Aunt Mei find another person who remembers to buy vegetables."

Zhou Chenwang's tone was not serious, but Zhang Ma's face turned pale with fright, and she wanted to explain. Zhou Chenwang didn't give her a chance, and then said: "I hope Lingxi will appear in the kitchen again in the future because he wants to cook for me. Not because of lack of food."

"I see." Zhang Ma lowered her head, feeling ashamed of being taught by Zhou Chenwang.

Zhou Chenwang ignored her, bypassed her and went into the kitchen.

The noodles are already out of the pot. The clear soup noodles are sprinkled with green onions and a poached egg is lying on it. Zhou Chen Wang rarely eats such a simple dinner. big move.

"I didn't know you were coming back, just eat something." Ling Xi sat down opposite him.

Zhou Chenwang took a sip. The noodles were moderately soft and firm, wrapped in a refreshing and non-greasy soup, and tasted very good. He asked, "Do you know how to cook?"

Ling Xi nodded, "Living alone for such a long time, one must master this most basic skill."

"I think your cooking must be better than Mama Zhang's." Zhou Chen looked at the noodles and said secretly.

Ling Xi smiled after hearing this, and continued following Zhou Chenwang's words, "When the time is over, I will cook for you if I have time, but I only know some home-cooked dishes, not too complicated ones."

"I just like to eat home-cooked food." Zhou Chenwang poked open the poached egg with his chopsticks and was even happier when he found that it was a soft-boiled egg. Finally, he ate up a bowl of noodles, wishing he could finish the soup.

Although the two of them had agreed that Ling Xi would cook in person, they hadn't been able to spare time. Finally, there was a weekend when both of them were free, but Shen Xiao called and said that their family had opened a new resort , invited Zhou Chenwang and Ling Xi to play.

The resort is in the suburbs of Beijing, and it takes three hours to drive there. It hasn't officially opened yet. Shen Xiao said that everyone stayed for two nights in the past, and it was a trial operation experience.

Shen Xiao euphemistically mentioned Lin Yaran on the phone. Zhou Chenwang knew that he wanted to give each other a step. After all, we all grew up together, so it shouldn't be too ugly. Shen Xiao was a peacemaker, and Zhou Chenwang wanted to sell him. Yes, I asked Ling Xi, and it happened that he had no class on Friday afternoon, so he decided to rush to the resort on Friday.

Zhou Chenwang came to the school to pick up Ling Xi after three o'clock. It happened to be the time when the students were out of class. As soon as the bell rang, a group of elementary school students poured out from each classroom, chattering and playing in the corridor. Zhou Chenwang's car was parked under the teaching area. Looking at the railing, he could clearly see the scene of Ling Xi walking into the black off-road vehicle.

Ling Xi is good-looking, and he treats students gently, so everyone likes him very much. The class he substitutes for is the closest to the main road, and a bold student waved at Ling Xi and shouted: "Goodbye, Teacher Ling."

Ling Xi had already got into the car, lowered the window after hearing it, and responded to the child with a smile, "Goodbye, don't stick out the railing, it's dangerous."

The naughty children immediately retreated, and it was not until the car drove a certain distance that Ling Xi closed the window again.

Zhou Chenwang looked at Ling Xi from the corner of his eye, because it was a working day, he was wearing a white shirt and a brown sweater, and a long windbreaker on the outside, when he just walked out of the teaching building, Ling Xi's slender figure was even more contrasted, Gentle and beautiful.

Zhou Chenwang saw that the cuffs of Ling Xi's windbreaker were still stained with chalk dust, thinking about what the elementary school students said just now, he couldn't help laughing, "Mr. Ling, your clothes are dirty."

Ling Xi was startled, and turned to look at him, "What are you yelling?"

"Aren't you Teacher Ling?" There was a red light ahead, Zhou Chenwang stepped on the brake lightly to stop, pointed at Ling Xi's sleeve, "It's dirty here."

Ling Xi raised his hand to look, but before he could move, Zhou Chenwang had already leaned over, patted his sleeve lightly, and wiped off the chalk dust on it.

Because the part that was stained with chalk dust happened to be the wrist, Zhou Chenwang's fingers inevitably touched the back of Ling Xi's hand, the fingertips were warm, and disappeared like a dragonfly on water, Ling Xi's heart skipped a beat, and he still lowered his head , whispered: "Thank you."

Zhou Chenwang was in a good mood, and when the green light came on, he rushed out like an arrow, even the songs playing in the car were cheerful along the way.

It was 06:30 when they arrived at the resort, and everyone else had arrived. Shen Xiao came up to greet them, and handed Ling Xi a cup of milk tea with a smile, "It's a bit far to come here."

"Fortunately, it's not very far, and the scenery on the road is beautiful." Ling Xi took the milk tea and replied with a smile.

After exchanging pleasantries, Shen Xiao took them to the room to put their luggage first, and then had dinner after a short rest.

The characteristic accommodation of the resort is the forest hut, each house is independent, not far from each other, will not be separated from the group, and respect each other's privacy, Shen Xiao booked a wooden house for Zhou Chenwang and Ling Xi.

Different from Zhou's house, this wooden house has only one bedroom, a two-meter-wide bed.

Ling Xi was a little hesitant, but thinking that the people who came to play together this time didn't know the truth about his and Zhou Chenwang's marriage. If they insisted on sleeping in separate rooms, it would be really strange for the newly married couple.

Ling Xi didn't say much, she turned her head to look at Zhou Chenwang, and he didn't show any objection.

The cabin is very elegantly decorated, the big windows are facing a forest, and small animals can be seen from time to time. Standing in front of the window, Ling Xi feels that the air has become much fresher.

Zhou Chenwang also came directly from the office. At this time, he took off his suit and put on a more comfortable sweater. He walked out of the bedroom and saw the person standing by the window looking at the scenery. He walked over and introduced: "The area of ​​the resort developed by the Shen family this time is It’s very big, our place is just one of the areas, and there are fish ponds, climbing areas, orchards, open-air theaters, and there seems to be a game field where real people eat chicken, and we can experience them all tomorrow.”

"It's great. It's been a long time since I spent the weekend so comfortably." Ling Xi leaned out the window to feel the night breeze outside, and then said in a low voice, "But I always feel a little sorry for grandma, she is still in the hospital, we You should be with her on vacation."

"Don't think so, grandma is in much better health now, she must also hope that you can relax, there are a lot of organic vegetables here, bring some when you go back, let Zhang Ma make a nutritious meal for grandma." Zhou Chenwang comforted.

Ling Xi turned around to look at him, Zhou Chenwang felt uncomfortable, "Why are you looking at me?"

Ling Xi smiled softly, "You have become mature."

Zhou Chenwang was warmed up by Ling Xi's smiling face, turned his eyes away, and snorted coldly, "I've always been very mature." Then he gave Ling Xi another look, "Don't keep looking at me like a child."

Ling Xi smiled and said nothing, Shen Xiao's voice calling for dinner came from outside, and the two went out together.

The dinner that day was an open-air barbecue. The ingredients had already been prepared, and a special person was in charge. When Ling Xi and Zhou Chen saw it, several plates had already been baked.A few girls were setting off fireworks with fairy wands, and Lin Yaran was among them. Hearing the sound, he turned his head and met Ling Xi's gaze.

Ling Xi smiled and nodded to her, Lin Yaran pursed her mouth and lowered her gaze.

This time, some of the friends Ling Xi met at the bar last time, and a few strangers, Zhou Chenwang didn't seem to know him very well, but when young people get together, they can quickly get along with each other.

Hu Yihao still remembered that Ling Xi was a good drinker, and would pester him to drink whenever he saw Ling Xi. Zhou Chenwang didn't stop him at all, but Ling Xi was disrespectful and drank a few glasses of beer with them.

After setting off the fireworks, Lin Yaran reluctantly moved over and stood in front of Ling Xi and Zhou Chenwang. Seeing this, Zhou Chenwang immediately blocked Ling Xi calmly.

Lin Yaran pouted her lips and swayed for a long time before she said nana: "Ling Xi, I was wrong last time, so I apologize to you."

Her voice was very low, and the surroundings were very noisy. Zhou Chenwang didn't hear what she said at all, but Ling Xi heard it clearly, and hurriedly said: "It's okay, I didn't take it to heart."

Lin Yaran looked up at him, and suddenly said: "However, I will not give up, obviously I knew Zhou Chenwang first, I know him better than you..."

This time Zhou Chenwang heard clearly, and interrupted her with a frown, "Lin Yaran!"

Lin Yaran didn't continue, she snorted, turned and left.

Ling Xi was confused about the little girl's uncertain attitude at first, but when she saw Lin Yaran running up to Shen Xiao and glaring at him, she understood something in her heart, he smiled secretly, and continued to drink with other people Come.

After drinking a glass of beer, Ling Xi sighed, the feelings of young people are really straightforward, but only people like them who have lived well since childhood can be so fearless. Rejection is a big deal, because they are already confident enough.

Halfway through the barbecue, someone who looked like a waiter said that a car came outside. As the host, Shen Xiao naturally had to go out to greet him. A few minutes later, two uninvited guests followed Shen Xiao, one with a shaved head and a tall man. Not too tall, he wore a black metal necklace around his neck, and his eyes were cold. Ling Xi didn't recognize him, but the person standing beside him was actually Qiu Luo.

Qiu Luo was obviously very happy to see Ling Xi, let go of the man's hand, ran to Ling Xi, and greeted excitedly, "Ling Xi, you are here too! Great!"

Ling Xi glanced at that person secretly, and asked Qiu Luo in a low voice, "Who is he?"

"It's a friend I just met. He said he would take me on vacation today, but I didn't expect to meet you." Qiu Luo smiled happily.

Zhou Chen looked on the sidelines with an unsuspecting expression. He stretched out his hand to grab Ling Xi's shoulders, brought him into his arms, and whispered in his ear: "That man's name is Di Yue. , I guess he was just released on bail by his family, so ignore him."

Ling Xi frowned when he heard that, that person did not give him a good first impression. Hearing what Zhou Chenwang said, he couldn't help worrying about Qiu Luo, and turned around to pull Qiu Luo over, but Zhou Chenwang stopped him, "But he is right The little lover has always been fine, you don't have to worry."

As Zhou Chenwang said, he stuffed a bunch of Orleans chicken wings into Ling Xi's hands. Ling Xi was thinking about something and didn't notice how intimate his posture with Zhou Chenwang was.

Zhai Yue came here uninvited, which somewhat embarrassed everyone. In the past, they would occasionally play together, but Zhai Yue had a violent and eccentric temper. Everyone doesn't hang out with him anymore, but it's unavoidable that some people's families still have business contacts with the Zhai family, and the friendship can't be broken at will. This time, I don't know who heard the news from them, but they came here by themselves, and they still talked with each other as if nothing had happened. Say hello to everyone.

The few people dealt with it indifferently, Lin Yaran grinned at Shen Xiao secretly, Shen Xiao was good-tempered and comforted, and only then did Lin Yaran believe that the person was not called by him.

Ling Xi didn't understand, so Hu Yihao whispered to him while pouring wine, saying that Zhai Yue had pestered Lin Yaran for a long time before, and because of this, he almost got into a fight with Zhou Chenwang.

Curiously, Ling Xi turned her head to look at Di Yue, but met a gloomy gaze. Di Yue smiled at the corner of his mouth, looking at Ling Xi probingly.
