It's a cemetery.

It's a cemetery.

Qin Rou was flustered for a moment, she followed Xia Fangxi's pace with small steps, cautiously.

Xia Fangxi elegantly placed the flowers in front of a tomb.

There is a picture of a woman on the tombstone. The woman is extremely beautiful, gorgeous and weak. The woman looks at the camera silently without a smile.

But her tombstone is much barren compared to other tombstones.

Only names, dates of birth and death, otherwise blank.

There is not even a monument erector.

Xia Fangxi looked at the photo, his dark eyes couldn't see any emotion.

"Is she your mother, Teacher Xia?" Qin Rou asked looking at the face that was somewhat similar to Xia Fangxi.

"Yeah." He replied without emotion.

Qin Rou looked at the woman on the tombstone who was as beautiful as fireworks, and compared it with the surrounding tombs filled with tributes.

"Won't Teacher Xia's father come to see her?" Qin Rou asked.

After a long silence, Xia Fangxi said, "He won't come."

Qin Rou looked at Xia Fangxi with some doubts.

"After all, my mother is just his lover."

The wind blew past the two of them.

Qin Rou didn't know what to say, she hugged her arms helplessly, as if she was cold.

For the early April season, she wore nothing but a sheer wool knit and a soft apricot gown.

This dress is really too thin.

Xia Fangxi looked at her, with a hint of reprimand in his tone, "Go back to the car and sit down, I'll take you back later."

Qin Rou looked at Xia Fangxi's deep and dark eyes, raised her chin slightly, and smiled coquettishly.

"I don't want it. If I leave, Teacher Xia, you will be lonely by yourself. I'll—"

She muttered.

Before Qin Rou could finish speaking, Xia Fangxi took off his suit jacket and put it on her shoulders.

The smell of lavender spread to Qin Rou's nasal cavity overwhelmingly with a little warmth.

At this moment, Qin Rou's expression froze, and she froze for a while before hugging Xia Fangxi's lavender-scented coat tightly.

She forgot for a moment what expression she should make.

Finally, she smiled shyly.

"Thank you, Teacher Xia."

Xia Fangxi stood in front of the tomb and watched for a while without saying a word. In the end, he seemed to really care about Qin Rou who was standing in the wind, so he walked down the stairs with Qin Rou.

"I'll take you home." She said lightly.

Qin Rou didn't want to go back like this, her hand quickly grabbed Xia Fangxi's shirt.

"... Teacher Xia, I'm hungry."

She seemed a little embarrassed to say.

--

Soon, their car stopped at a small private kitchen restaurant.

The restaurant is quaint, but there are no people there.

Xia Fangxi took Qin Rou into a private room.

Xia Fangxi ordered a plate of stir-fried seasonal vegetables, garlic pork ribs, lotus root and mung bean soup, and Qin Rou ordered a plate of swimming crab and almond tofu.

When Xia Fangxi heard that Qin Rou had ordered the swimming crab, she froze for a moment, but did not speak.

Swimming crabs were cooked very quickly, and it didn't take long for them to come up.

As the saying goes, there are crabs in March and shrimp in April.

Although it is now April, March has just passed, and the portunus crab is also extremely delicious. The red shell and the aroma of the crab meat make people's index fingers move.

Qin Rou seemed to be really hungry. She stretched out her hand to grab a crab and peeled it, but accidentally burned her hand by the temperature of the pot.

She licked her fingers pitifully like a cat, and shed tears in irritability.

Xia Fangxi frowned, took another look at her cherry blossom pink nails, sighed, and moved the whole plate of crab meat to his face, then asked someone to bring a small spoon and scissors, and began to peel the crab meat silently. Here come the crabs.

Qin Rou was a little surprised to see Xia Fangxi rolling up his sleeves to peel crabs.

She knew that Xia Fangxi was a bit of a clean freak. Although she didn't say how serious it was, she was a person who liked to be neat and tidy.

So watching Xia Fangxi peeling crabs for herself with hands full of stains, Qin Rou felt that a beautiful thing was being stained by herself, and felt a little pity for no reason.

But the biggest difference between her and Xia Fangzhen is that even if she feels pity, she will not take the crab back and peel it by herself.

Because she has always been squeamish, if someone is willing to peel for her, she will never refuse.

Xia Fangxi put the peeled crab meat into Qin Rou's bowl, "Eat it while it's hot."

It's like an order.

Thinking about it, Qin Rou frowned.

Qin Rou obediently picked it up, put it into her mouth and took a bite, then shook her little head deliciously.

"Miss Xia, Miss Xia, put it in your own bowl too, this crab is delicious." She smiled cutely.

"I don't like eating crabs." Xia Fangxi said lightly.

Qin Rou froze for a moment, then looked at Xia Fangxi with a smile, "Then why did you peel the crab?"

Her expression seemed to be asking blatantly: Do you like me?

But Xia Fangzhen didn't understand what she meant at all, she glanced at Qin Rou's red fingers and said, "Because I'm not afraid of being burned."

Since she is not afraid of being hot, she should do it?

Qin Rou helplessly raised her chin and looked at the big piece of wood.

Xia Fangxi is skillfully peeling crabs.

Qin Rou deliberately made a jealous look and asked:

"Mr. Xia, have you ever peeled crabs for others?"

"No." Xia Fangxi paused for a while, and said again: "When I was young, I watched my mother peel it."

"Mom likes to eat crab?" Qin Rou shook her head in doubt.

Xia Fangxi shook his head.

"My father likes it. She will buy a lot of crabs and cook them for him."

Xia Fangxi didn't know what picture he remembered, his eyes seemed to be deep in thought.

"I buy swimming crabs in March and April, boy crabs in July and August, and hairy crabs in autumn. She peels them proficiently, and she doesn't eat any of them after peeling them. I leave everything to my father."

Qin Rou watched Xia Fangxi put the crab meat into her bowl. The crab meat that looked like a big plate just now was only a small bowl in the bowl.

Peeling crabs is a painstaking and time-consuming thing.

Xia Fangxi's mother was willing to do this for her father, probably because she liked her father very much.

"Mr. Xia, do you think you and I look like your father and mother now?" Qin Rou fed the crab into her mouth and giggled.

Xia Fangxi glanced at her, and put the last piece of crab meat into Qin Rou's bowl. While wiping her hands gracefully, she said solemnly, "Concentrate on eating and don't talk nonsense."

Qin Rou puffed up her cheeks and stopped talking.

But looking at the crab in front of me, it is inevitable that some sweetness overflows in my heart.

---

After eating, the two walked to the parking lot, which was across the street.

But in the past, there was a detour around the road.

If the driver is asked to come over, the direction of the road is opposite, and it will take more time to walk over a section of overpass.

So the two decided to walk down the street.

A black mass suddenly jumped to Xia Fangxi's feet.

Xia Fangxi stopped immediately.

"Meow." The black thing rubbed against Xia Fangxi's trousers.

Xia Fangxi immediately retracted his legs nervously.

Qin Rou thought it was funny, and matched Xia Fangxi's expression in her heart with a voice, "Dirty, don't come here." '

But the black kitten didn't see Xia Fangxi's expression at all, not only didn't leave, but also acted like a baby on Xia Fangxi's trousers, rubbing back and forth.

"Meow meow meow."

Xia Fangxi glanced at the kitten, and then at Qin Rou as if thinking of something.

Qin Rou felt cute and squatted in front of the kitten.

"Is it a stray cat around here? Teacher Xia, it likes you so much, it's been rubbing against your trousers all the time."

Xia Fangxi's body was a little stiff, she didn't like dirty things, she could accept it if it was a clean cat, but she couldn't because of the darkness.

"But I don't like it." She said coldly.

Qin Rou didn't care what Xia Fangxi said and reached out to touch the cat, but the little black cat avoided it all of a sudden.

It stared at Qin Rou vigilantly, and made a deterrent grunt in its throat.

Injured emotions flashed across Qin Rou's eyes.

"This kitten hates me."

The little cat is going to make the big cat cry.

Xia Fangxi frowned as he watched the scene.

She saw that Qin Rou seemed to be very concerned about not touching the kitten, but she knelt down and looked at the kitten like Qin Rou.

The kitten looked at her in surprise, thinking that Xia Fangxi was finally going to touch him.

As a result, Xia Fangxi grabbed the back of its neck and brought it in front of Qin Rou.

The kitten was taken aback.

Qin Rou was also taken aback.

"Touch it."

Xia Fangxi said as if ordering.

The author has something to say:

Xia Fangxi: My mother loves my father very much, so she helped him peel crabs.

Qin Rou; Teacher Xia, why did you peel the crab for me?

Xia Fangxi: I'm not afraid of being hot.

By the way, the flower language of purple hyacinth means apology.
