broken

The girl's eyes.

The coldness in her eyes seemed to have been warmed by the coming hot latte, with a smile that made Shen Qiuhe unable to move her eyes away.

I don't know if it was an illusion, but at this time Shen Qiuhe felt that the girl seemed very close to her. It wasn't that they had just known each other, it wasn't that they didn't have much conversation, but they were old friends who could confide in each other.

Shen Qiuhe held the computer bag in one hand, and leaned on the counter with the other hand, tilting his head and looking back at Su Jin, his eyes were very close, and his whole person became bold.

"Okay, this cup can also be counted in the account, as if you paid back the money."

I thought it was a joke, but as soon as the words came out, Shen Qiuhe observed that the girl's eyebrows tightened instantly, and the smile on the corner of her mouth became stiff and helpless.

The girl didn't answer, but there was an imperceptible redness in the corner of her eyes.

The debt relationship between the two was brought to the surface by this sentence, and the distance that was drawn very close just now was pushed far, far away.

Shen Qiuhe is not a dull person, the girl's embarrassed expression just now made her feel both regretful and guilty, and the atmosphere between the two became very delicate.

After the payment receipt was completed, the coffee guy behind took the order and started making coffee. The two people in front of and behind the cash desk also fell silent, without any communication, and even their eyes stopped colliding.

"Sit down first, and I'll send it to you when it's ready."

Su Jin used honorifics, and his tone was extremely flat, as if the two of them had never known each other, but it was the first time they met such a guest today, and politely smiled and nodded at her, then turned around to tidy up the processing table after speaking. materials and objects.

Shen Qiuhe sat down in a corner of the cafe, and after a while, Su Jin delivered the finished coffee. She just leaned over and arranged the coffee on the table, placing it away from Shen Qiuhe's computer so that she could pick it up conveniently , but it will not splash on the materials, and then put away the delivery tray and left without saying anything.

Su Jin's silence made Shen Qiuhe feel even more guilty, and she was angry with herself for being so complacent just now.

It was about afternoon tea time, and the cafe began to be bustling with people.

Looking at the girl who was busy ordering food over there, Shen Qiuhe really wanted to send her a message to say something, but then thought that she would never use a mobile phone during work, and she wouldn't be able to see it even if she sent it.Teacher Shen, who couldn't apologize, had to bury her head in the paper, hiding her disturbed mood.

Shen Qiuhe's attention has never been so unfocused.

She can always hear the inquiry from the ordering counter over there, the wind chime at the store door rings slightly, and then her polite voice will be heard; The tone of her reception sounded.

Although they were far away, Shen Qiuhe never escaped Shen Qiuhe's ears with all the polite words, confirming the food and drink ordered by the customer, confirming the cup number, and informing the price.

In order to avoid being drowned by the sound, Shen Qiuhe had to take out the earphones from his bag and put them on, trying to isolate himself from the pleasant sound.

Once he concentrated his energy again, time passed quickly, and before he knew it, the coffee in hand had already run out, and at some point, a glass of lemonade had been replaced on the table.

"Your water is cold, I'll give you another glass."

Shen Qiuhe tilted her head slightly, only to realize that it was Su Jin who changed the water for her.

She quickly took off the earphones, but seeing that Su Jin was about to leave with the kettle, she got up in a hurry and bumped into the corner of the table.

"Hey~~" Shen Qiuhe groaned in pain, "Su Jin...can you sit down for a while?"

Shen Qiuhe's voice was not loud, but there was a request in his tone.

Su Jin looked at her first, with a calm expression, and then looked at the cashier.

At this time, all the people in the store left in the afternoon, and there were no customers ordering for the time being, so she glanced at Shen Qiuhe again, and slowly sat down opposite her.However, her eyes did not look at Shen Qiuhe, but fell on the glass of lemonade in front of her.

"What I said just now doesn't mean anything else. I'm actually...just joking, but it's really inappropriate. I'm sorry..."

Su Jin took a look at Shen Qiuhe and knew what she was talking about was asking her to drink coffee but having to deduct it from the arrears.

"Well, I know, you don't need to apologize, I don't care." Su Jin replied, there was still no unnecessary expression on his face, and then he stopped talking.

Two people sat blankly, one wanted to talk but didn't know what to say, while the other seemed to have no desire to talk at all.

Shen Qiuhe closed the computer, picked up the glass of warm lemonade that Su Jin had just changed, and took a sip.

She really wanted to ask what Su Jin wanted to say to her when he clicked on the dialogue box that night, but she didn't know how to ask.

What if Su Jin said no, did not admit it at all?Even Shen Qiuhe himself wondered if he was too sleepy that night and made a mistake.

Su Jin took a look and saw Shen Qiuhe with a hesitant expression, he was smiling slightly in his heart, but his face was still blank.

"I'm still short of your money, I will try my best to pay you back, and I will be paid next week. I will make up a little bit."

"No rush, no rush, you pay it back slowly, it's fine."

Seeing that Su Jin had already grasped the lemonade jug on the table, Shen Qiuhe still wanted to keep her, but he knew that he had no reason to keep her.

"Su Jin, you..." Shen Qiuhe hesitated for a while, but still smiled hard, raised his head and asked the girl who had already stood up: "Do you know what I do? You seem to have never asked."

Shen Qiuhe still didn't see much expression on Su Jin's face, but she didn't know that Su Jin had been smiling very proudly in his heart for a long time when he heard these words.

"Is this important?" Su Jin said calmly.

This rhetorical question made Shen Qiuhe's heart sink. She avoided the girl's gaze and put down the lemonade in her hand.

yeah, does it matter?

In fact, she just impulsively lent the other party money at the bar. To put it bluntly, they are in a pure debt relationship, and the girl has indeed thanked her and is paying back the money, so why should she know so much?

The girl's icy tone made Shen Qiuhe sober up a lot. She remembered again that this girl with clear and sharp eyes was a fierce little leopard when she was in the bar, but now, in this fragrant and warm coffee In the store, she is still not a little house cat who is willing to get close to people even though she is wearing a staff uniform.

This is what makes her different, and it is what makes Shen Qiuhe fascinated and curious.

"Actually, I've watched your show."

I thought the girl would leave after finishing speaking, but Shen Qiuhe heard her words again.

Shen Qiuhe raised his head and directly met the girl's gaze.

Su Jin in the woman's eyes suddenly curled his lips into a smile, the corners of the mouth on that cold face gradually widened, and soon the dark eyes were stained with a smile, and the whole person became obedient.

"Shen Qiuhe, I've watched your show, and I know what you do. I, know you."

Shen Qiuhe opened her mouth slightly, she thought, at this time, she must have a dumb expression.

But it was the first time for her full name to be read from her mouth. Using her voice, Shen Qiuhe thought it sounded really nice.

5. Chapter 5

Although the coffee shop incident was a bit embarrassing at the time, the final result was not bad.

Shen Qiuhe knew that Su Jin was working in a coffee shop, so she would visit StarryNight almost every other day.

Su Jin in the coffee shop was still reticent, but the two of them met more often, and the girl's sharp eyes gradually softened. When there were not many people, Shen Qiuhe would drag her to say a few more words.

But the relationship between the two people on the Internet is still just a pure debt relationship. Su Jin never speaks. When her profile picture lights up, all she receives is transfer information. The conversation will end here.

Shen Qiuhe didn't care about Su Jin's cold attitude, she even thought that this was her original appearance.

This girl should have the unruly personality when she first saw her. Because she owed money unexpectedly, this little beast restrained herself and had to add a little enthusiasm, but she was still so unruly in her bones.

The debt connecting the two people is like a string, and with every transfer of money by the girl, the string will loosen a little bit.

Seeing the decreasing amount of arrears, Shen Qiuhe held the phone and half closed his eyes, unable to suppress his restless heart.

She has never been so interested in a person, and she really wants to know what this cold and weird girl will look like if she is completely free of the restraint of the rein.

Shen Qiuhe turned off the intermittent video connection all afternoon, stood up, stretched his body that had been curled up for too long, and rubbed his eyes.

The project that Gu Shaofeng is in charge of in Africa is a national highway infrastructure project. The project site was completely uninhabited before, with almost no network coverage.

He managed to find a nearby area with internet, and he and Shen Qiuhe reluctantly turned on the video, but the signal was really unstable. For three hours, the two of them basically spent the time of double shadowing and black screen waiting. Later, Shen Qiuhe Feeling that this would be torture to both of them, he simply disconnected from the Internet and left a message for Gu Shaofeng, not knowing when he would receive it.

The week that Gu Shaofeng had just left, Shen Qiuhe still felt a little uncomfortable. After all, when Gu Shaofeng was around, he always asked about the health and well-being, and gave more fixed orders than meals, and came to the school to deliver something if he had anything to do.

Shen Qiuhe didn't like the things he gave, but she had to admit that in her relationship with Gu Shaofeng, Gu Shaofeng was the extremely romantic person who could give gifts and remember anniversaries.

And he chose to create the conditions to connect with Shen Qiuhe video on this day because Gu Shaofeng remembered that today is Shen Qiuhe's birthday.

In the afternoon, Shen Qiuhe rejected Ma Siwei's request to find a lively place to celebrate her birthday
