The conservative man who wears the past through the present is crooked

===========================

Ten minutes later, Ye Xiyu had already led Lu Zheqian to walk in the community where he lived.After walking a few steps, he stopped suddenly, then turned around and said to Lu Zheqian who was following behind him——

"Xiao Zhe, why don't we eat outside? It's already past twelve o'clock, and it's already late when we cook."

He was a little worried that Lu Zheqian would starve and hurt his stomach. In addition, he was in a messy mood at the moment - he really didn't know why he suddenly proposed to bring Lu Zheqian home for dinner. He still didn't know how to receive Lu Zheqian That's good, so he still expressed his suggestion with a little "luck".

Unexpectedly, Lu Zheqian, who had already stopped, looked at him and shook his head resolutely, "The fast food outside is not clean."

He wanted to say something at first, but when he saw Lu Zheqian's firm eyes, he retreated - in the end, he just nodded slightly, and then led Lu Zheqian to move on.

A few minutes later, they took the elevator to the 25th floor. As soon as the elevator door opened, Lu Zheqian saw a simple door. The distance between the elevator and the door was about two meters. There was a wooden shoe rack on the left side of the door. A few pairs of shoes were neatly placed——it was only then that Lu Zheqian realized that his family background did not seem to be bad, and the entire floor here should belong to their family.

He didn't know what Lu Zheqian was thinking at this moment, but he got out of the elevator and walked towards the shoe rack naturally.He took a new pair of slippers from the top and put them down, then said to Lu Zheqian: "Xiao Zhe, you can wear these shoes, these are new ones I bought, and I haven't worn them yet." He changed the shoes while talking .

Lu Zheqian nodded, and put on the shoes directly without being polite to him. He stared at Lu Zheqian's smooth movements for a moment, then quickly looked away before Lu Zheqian raised his head, and began to look at the bag. Turn the key inside.

When he opened the door, Lu Zheqian saw the spacious and tidy living room at a glance. At the end of the living room was a large balcony, where some exquisite potted plants could be vaguely seen.

"Xiao Zhe, sit down first, I'll go to the kitchen to see what else is available." He hung his schoolbag on the storage shelf against the wall while talking, and then walked to the kitchen on the right.

Lu Zheqian glanced at his back in a hurry, and then walked towards the balcony while curiously looking at the place where he lived——

Lu Zheqian found that although the living room of his house was very spacious, it still had a gap compared with the big house he lived in - his house only had a master bedroom, a side bedroom, a small guest room, and a small study room. The bathroom is opposite the study.

There is no separate dining room here, just a dining table in a corner of the living room near the door.Fortunately, the view from the balcony outside is very wide, and the overall environment is good——

For some reason, after knowing that he lived in a good environment, Lu Zheqian seemed to let go of a big rock in his heart, and felt a lot better.

"Xiao Zhe, there's nothing left in the refrigerator. I'll make you scrambled eggs with leeks and fried pork with fungus, okay?" His voice suddenly came from the kitchen.

Lu Zheqian hurried back to the living room, then came to the kitchen door and said "um".At this time, he had just pressed the switch of the rice cooker, and when he heard the sound, he turned around and looked at the door.

Lu Zheqian was just looking at him calmly at first, but when he turned around, Lu Zheqian's eyes suddenly lit up - he was actually wearing a pink and blue cartoon sheep apron.

But he didn't notice Lu Zheqian's surprised look, he just smiled at Lu Zheqian and said, "It's fine if you don't dislike it, you go and have a meeting first, I don't have time to make tea right now, if you are thirsty, you can drink something With that said, he took out a bottle of chrysanthemum tea from the refrigerator and handed it to Lu Zheqian.

Lu Zheqian took the bottle of chrysanthemum tea, frowned inadvertently, then said "thank you" to him, then turned around and left, he took a deep breath as he watched Lu Zheqian leave, and then immediately started washing vegetables and preparing them for cooking .

Lu Zheqian came to the sofa in the living room and sat down, then put the bottle of chrysanthemum tea on the coffee table - he stared at the bottle of chrysanthemum tea solemnly for a while, then looked up to the kitchen.In the end, he solemnly picked up the bottle of chrysanthemum tea, and drank it earnestly, as if to complete a task.

After drinking the chrysanthemum tea, he sat on the sofa for a while, then stood up and walked around the balcony.In the end, he didn't know whether it was intentional or not, he came to the kitchen door again, and then hid by the wall, watching the busy figure in the kitchen quietly - or "quietly".

Ye Xiyu was making scrambled eggs with leeks at this time, and being sensitive, he faintly noticed the two eyes behind him. He frowned, then pretended to be holding the dishes on a plate, and by the way "inadvertently" turned sideways and glanced at the door. glanced.

When he turned sideways, Lu Zheqian immediately turned around and walked back to the sofa. He watched the shadow passing by the door and sighed silently, and then thought to himself while holding a plate: Xiaozhe, this should be the first time. How about going to a friend's house to play?Was he curious about how he cooks, that's why he peeked quietly outside the door?

……

Thinking about it, he couldn't help laughing at himself - he felt that he was really overthinking and a little suspicious.Moreover, from another perspective, Lu Zheqian's current performance may not be a good thing:

Lu Zheqian's current behavior seems to mean that he is willing to be good friends with him. If so, why doesn't he take the opportunity to establish a deep friendship with Lu Zheqian?After their friendship deepens, Lu Zheqian should follow his advice and slowly get back on track, right?

As for the strange little feelings in his own heart, he believed that given time, it would be slowly diluted by the torrent of time.

Thinking of this, he suddenly became enlightened, he stopped thinking about it, and continued to stir-fry the next dish swiftly.

At about 01:30, he and Lu Zheqian finally had today's lunch——

"Xiao Zhe, don't you like scrambled eggs with leeks?" He saw that Lu Zheqian only had some fungus, so he asked a little worried.

Lu Zheqian paused for a moment, then shook his head, then took a small piece of egg and swallowed it with the rice.

He stared blankly at Lu Zheqian's actions, and Lu Zheqian just raised his eyes to look at him. When the eyes of the two met again, he quickly lowered his head and pretended to eat seriously. Lu Zheqian frowned, and then acted as if nothing had happened. Eating quietly.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the living room was eerily quiet, but eerily extraordinarily peaceful, and just right—for some reason, this seemed to have become a tacit understanding between the two of them when they got along.

Lu Zheqian was full soon, then put down the bowl and chopsticks and sat quietly, as if waiting for him.Seeing this, he couldn't help but feel a little anxious, wanting to finish the rice in the bowl quickly.But he was still calm on the surface, and then he finished the rest of the meal in a leisurely manner, and then he was about to clean up the dishes.

"I'll come." Lu Zheqian said in a deep voice, put away the bowls and chopsticks before him, then turned around and walked to the kitchen.

He stared blankly at Lu Zheqian's back, and he didn't come back to his senses until there was a movement in the kitchen, then hurried to the kitchen door and said to Lu Zheqian, "Little Zhe, you are a guest, let me..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw Lu Zheqian standing in front of the sink washing the dishes seriously - although the boy's movements were a little rusty, he was doing it very seriously.Moreover, to his surprise, he seemed to see a slight smile on the corner of the boy's mouth just now.

He blinked involuntarily—seeing that Lu Zheqian was still expressionless and indifferent, he wondered if he had read it wrong?

"When I live with my grandfather, he usually does the cooking and I wash the dishes." Just as he was thinking, Lu Zheqian suddenly said this sentence - he found that every time Lu Zheqian mentioned Cheng Yongbin, there would be light in Lu Zheqian's eyes flash.At the same time, he could feel that Lu Zheqian didn't dislike washing dishes. On the contrary, Lu Zheqian seemed to like washing dishes quite a bit.

He nodded in a daze, and Lu Zheqian said again: "Besides, you have already cooked for me, so I should wash the dishes."

He didn't know what to say for a while, so he stood by the door and watched Lu Zheqian's movements quietly.Lu Zheqian quickly cleaned the dishes, and he hurried over to open the disinfection cupboard, and asked Lu Zheqian to put the bowls and chopsticks in it.

Lu Zheqian glanced at him, then looked at the apron hanging on the wall and asked him, "Do you like this?"

He gave a suspicious "hmm" and followed Lu Zheqian's gaze. He suddenly realized, and immediately explained: "This is bought by my father! He just picked one up when he bought it, and didn't pay attention to it at all. . . . I figured it was just for home use anyway, so I kept it.”

Lu Zheqian froze for a moment, then remembered that he had never mentioned his parents to him.Lu Zheqian nodded, and asked again: "Your parents, have you both gone to work?"

He was stunned for a moment, and then said with a little disappointment: "My father has gone to work, but, my mother... she passed away a long time ago..."

Hearing this, Lu Zheqian showed a look of surprise, but soon returned to "indifference", and then said: "Sorry, I don't know..."

He shook his head and said, "It's okay, I know you didn't mean it." He paused and asked again, "Are you going back? Your grandfather..."

A burst of mobile phone ringing suddenly interrupted his words, Lu Zheqian frowned, and then took out the mobile phone from his pocket - only then did he know that Lu Zheqian actually had a mobile phone.

"Uncle Hua." Lu Zheqian called the person on the phone coldly.

He heard Song Zhihua's voice, but he couldn't understand what he was saying. He saw Lu Zheqian frowned, and said in a deep voice, "What?"

Then, Lu Zheqian took a deep breath, hung up the phone, and said to him: "I'm going back, you don't have to go to tutor this afternoon."

For some reason, when he heard this, he felt a little disappointed in his heart, but he quickly put away this little emotion, then nodded and said: "Okay, then I will send you down."

"No need." Lu Zheqian grabbed his arm, and he suddenly felt an electric current flowing through his arm, but Lu Zheqian quickly let go of him, and then asked, "What's your mobile phone number?"

"Huh?" He didn't expect that Lu Zheqian would suddenly ask him for his mobile phone number, so he didn't react for a while.

"What's your mobile phone number?" Lu Zheqian repeated the question patiently.

He froze for a moment, then hurried to the living room to get a post-it note and a pen, wrote his mobile phone number on the paper and handed it to Lu Zheqian.

Lu Zheqian reached out to take the square post-it note - I don't know whether it was on purpose or not, Lu Zheqian's fingertip gently scratched his index finger, and he froze immediately.

He didn't come back to his senses until there was a dull sound of closing the door.Only then did he realize that Lu Zheqian had left—he raised his eyes to look at the old gate, then raised his hand and squeezed the index finger of his left hand that Lu Zheqian had just scratched, his mood was suddenly complicated beyond words.
