Chapter 82 This is My Home
Chapter 82 This is my home...
On the side of the road, Lu Yuanqiu was looking in the mirror on the window of a car. He was observing his face from left to right. The dark window reflected the face of a young boy with hard and immature facial lines.
Lu Yuanqiu actually doesn’t have the habit of looking in the mirror.
Because he doesn't think he is handsome, he is lucky that he didn't grow up to be like his father.
But in high school, the boys in my class liked to look in the mirror, especially after going to the bathroom at school.
Zhong Jincheng would look at himself sideways in the bathroom mirror, frowning, as if as long as he frowned and his expression became serious and deep, his appearance would improve several levels.
Wang Haoran likes to adjust his middle-parted hairstyle when looking in the mirror.
I don’t know if he has obsessive-compulsive disorder, but he can adjust the break time in front of the mirror. The urine on the hands of the students waiting in line to wash their hands behind him is almost crystallized, but Wang Haoran can’t finish it.
Lu Yuanqiu really didn't remember any boy in high school who could resist looking up at the mirror after washing his hands after going to the toilet.
Maybe because he felt that he was not handsome enough, Lu Yuanqiu never had the habit of showing off.
But today, he rarely cared about his appearance.
Why the hell do I look like I’m going to propose marriage... Lu Yuanqiu couldn’t help but laugh at himself in his heart.
His main purpose of coming this time was actually to get a deeper understanding of Bai Qingxia's life.
Just then, a "buzzing" sound was heard in front of me, and the dark car window slowly lowered.
Lu Yuanqiu's expression froze.
The man in the driver's seat said anxiously, "Hey, buddy, you've been taking photos here for ten minutes. I'm really going to drive away!"
Lu Yuanqiu glared with a ferocious expression: "You can open it if you want. I'll take pictures for ten minutes and you can observe me for ten minutes, right?! Why are you so idle?"
"Are you crazy? I'm not anxious, but you are anxious first!"
The guy in the driver's seat started the car reluctantly, not bothering to pay attention to Lu Yuanqiu, and quickly left the roadside parking space.
Lu Yuanqiu then awkwardly returned to the zebra crossing and squatted next to the gift.
Why hasn’t Bai Qingxia come yet!
Wait till I die!
When she comes, I will spank her! Hit both sides! Hit her hard to relieve the hatred in my heart!
Lu Yuanqiu thought expressionlessly.
At this moment, he suddenly heard hurried footsteps coming from the side.
Turning my head, I saw a girl in school uniform carrying a large shopping bag in both hands and coming to the intersection with a very strenuous expression.
Lu Yuanqiu hurried over and took the shopping bag from Bai Qingxia. The girl freed her hands and immediately rubbed the red marks on her hands. She looked at Lu Yuanqiu embarrassedly: "Sorry, I kept you waiting for so long."
"fine."
When Lu Yuanqiu saw Bai Qingxia, his anger disappeared, but he was surprised that she actually bought so many things.
Even Lu Yuanqiu himself felt the weight was too heavy.
"Let's go."
"it is good."
When they arrived at the zebra crossing, Lu Yuanqiu picked up all the gifts with his other hand, which surprised Bai Qingxia.
"Why do you buy so many things?"
"Aren't you the same?"
"Because..." Bai Qingxia scratched his head and said awkwardly: "I don't know what you like to eat. Take a look later. I will make whatever you want to eat."
“You can cook too.”
"I can."
At this point, Bai Qingxia's tone became unusually cheerful and proud. Lu Yuanqiu also realized that he had asked a nonsense question.
She has been taking care of her father alone for so many years, how could she not know how to cook?
The two of them walked across the street and entered the entrance of Guihua Lane. Bai Qingxia wanted to help Lu Yuanqiu carry things, but Lu Yuanqiu scolded her and she retracted her hand.
Such a heavy thing is carried in these tender little hands. I feel sorry for them even if you don't.
As soon as he entered the alley, Lu Yuanqiu smelled a strange smell, like duck. Seeing his strange expression, Bai Qingxia explained: "There are many small workshops here..."
"No wonder."
Lu Yuanqiu looked at the cracked concrete floor under his feet, the intricate electrical wires above his head, and the mottled walls around him, and felt like he had arrived at his hometown in the countryside.
But in fact, the countryside is full of two-story buildings.
"Why does it feel like there's no one here?"
"Everyone should go to work."
"You're still working on National Day? Are you so busy?"
The girl slightly pulled the corners of her mouth and responded to the boy's surprise with a dry smile.
The two chatted about this and that, and after walking around a few alleys, they finally walked into a dilapidated courtyard.
The yard was a mess. The houses on the first floor were home to all kinds of people, all busy with different things.
Lu Yuanqiu saw an old man sorting out used beverage bottles, and a middle-aged man grinding metal on a machine, making a loud noise... They just glanced over here and then went back to their busy work.
Lu Yuanqiu withdrew his gaze and followed the girl in school uniform up a steep staircase with rusty railings.
Bai Qingxia looked back from time to time, as if she was afraid that Lu Yuanqiu would miss a step.
Lu Yuanqiu looked up and suddenly saw the girl's round butt under her school uniform.
Girls are naive and they don’t cover their butts when going upstairs. But in school, as long as there is someone behind them, boys would like to weld their helmets to their butts when going upstairs.
Arriving at the second floor, Bai Qingxia led Lu Yuanqiu down a narrow corridor. Above the corridor were clothes hanging to dry. Lu Yuanqiu was walking among the clothes, and his face bumped into a red bra.
He quickly retracted his neck and turned his head, and suddenly saw a heavily made-up woman standing at the door of a house next door.
The woman had an ordinary appearance, was wearing a soft pink nightgown, had slightly curly hair, had red nail polish, and exuded a faint smell of cheap perfume.
At this moment, she was cracking melon seeds at the door, looking at Lu Yuanqiu with interest.
"Who is this, Xiao Xia, a friend?"
Her voice is also soft and charming.
What surprised Lu Yuanqiu was that Bai Qingxia actually smiled and responded to the woman: "Yes, he is my friend, Sister Lili, can I borrow your stove for lunch today?"
"Yes, you bought so many things. Can I come to your place for lunch?"
Bai Qingxia opened her mouth slightly but didn't respond. She looked at Lu Yuanqiu silently. As if she had guessed what the girl was thinking, the woman giggled and said, "I'm just teasing you. Eat your own food."
Bai Qingxia pursed her lips and nodded shyly.
What surprised Lu Yuanqiu was that Bai Qingxia actually smiled at this woman. It seemed that she had a good relationship with this woman.
When he saw Bai Qingxia stop and open a door next to her, Lu Yuanqiu realized that they were neighbors.
The girl entered the room first, shrugged her nose slightly, and confirmed again that there was no strange smell in the room. Then she moved aside, looked up at Lu Yuanqiu with a nervous expression, and let him in.
“This is my home…”
