In midsummer, the cicadas chirping, and the noon sun makes people's cheeks red.

Xia Zhizhi pulled two large suitcases into the community, and the sweat on her forehead wet her sideburns.

She raised her hand and wiped her sweat for a moment. Just as she was about to take out the key from her big bag, a slender figure turned forward from behind and opened the door. She looked down at a young girl who looked just over teenage, and she looked like she was about high school...

As a professional habit, he subconsciously asked, "Do you need help?"

Qingmai's voice sounded in his ears, cutting through the heat of summer.

Xia Zhizhi looked up and bumped into a pair of deep eyes, with slightly bent eyebrows, sparse smile, and extremely beautiful colors...

She was stunned, with beautiful eyes.

Seeing that she had been standing at the door, the man looked at him in a daze, and had no intention of going in, he raised his hand and waved, "Hello?"

Xia Zhizhi suddenly came back to her senses, and hurriedly pulled two big suitcases in, thanking her, "Thank you."

She had just kept seeing others and was so rude.

The man was slightly stunned, this... OK.

After entering the elevator, Xia Zhizhi took the lead in pressing the elevator button and pulled the suitcase to move it into the elevator. The man then entered the elevator and glanced at it, but he did not press the button for a long time.

Xia Zhizhi was confused, didn’t he press the button?

She remembered the news and so on the Internet... However, looking at this man, he was gentle and polite, and his every move was full of books, and he didn't look like a bad person.

The number of elevator floors kept jumping, and finally stopped on the 18th floor.

The man held down the door key, and Xia Zhizhi hurriedly pulled the suitcase out of the elevator, but heard the sound of footsteps coming from behind.

“???”

She knew that there were at most two residents on the first floor here.

There are two residents on this floor. Could it be that this man just happens to live on this floor?

As if confirming Xia Zhizhi's conjecture, the man walked out of the elevator and walked to the door 1802, took out the key and opened the door.

As the sound of closing the door fell, Xia Zhizhi slapped, and it turned out that she was not a bad person.

Then she found the key from her schoolbag and opened the door, pushed two suitcases into the house. As soon as she stepped in, the ringtone of the cell phone in her bag rang.

"Hello?"

"Zhizhi?"

A middle-aged woman's voice came from the phone, and there seemed to be some uncertainty in her voice.

Xia Zhizhi frowned slightly, "Yes."

“Have you arrived at your new home?”

"arrive."

"That's good. If you are in poor health, don't clean it yourself. Find a hourly worker to help clean it. If you lack money, tell your mother, do you know?"

"knew."

After hanging up the phone, Xia Zhizhi looked plain and went straight into the bathroom, put on her sleeves and hat, and started to clean up the house.

...

I moved to my new home, and read books at home every day, studied high school courses in advance, occasionally went downstairs to buy ingredients, and cooked some delicious food by myself in the evening.

When the next door was repaired, every six o'clock in the evening, you could smell the aroma of the food coming from the next door on time.

He sighed slightly, clicked on the takeaway software on his mobile phone and ordered a takeaway.

It used to be fine when no one lived next door, but now every time it is time, the fragrance of food comes, which is really... greedy.

At this time, Xia Zhizhi put two dishes on the dining table, holding her chin with one hand, not knowing what she was thinking.

In the huge living room, she was the only one who ate dinner quietly by the dining table.

She doesn't look very emotional.

...

When school was about to start, Xia Zhizhi's mother came over, but encountered Xia Zhizhi going out to buy things.

When Bian Yixiu came back, he met a middle-aged woman standing in the corridor.

Because the two doors were not far apart, he asked, "Hello, who do you want?"

Could it be that I came to find the girl next door?

Xia’s mother frowned, who is this?

When Xia Zhizhi came back, he heard a familiar but unfamiliar voice across the corner, and his hand holding the bag was clenched a little unconsciously.

When I walked out of the corner, I was right at the door of my house, and there was the man next door who had seen him several times and had a very good-looking eyes.

Hearing footsteps, both of them looked back and Xia Zhizhi walked towards her with a bag in her hands.

Natsume looked slightly stunned. It seemed that she hadn't seen her daughter for a long time. She seemed to have lost weight again... For a moment, she didn't know what to say to her daughter.

"Zhizhi, where have you been?"

Xia Zhizhi looked indifferent and looked unhappy, "Buy vegetables."

The daughter's attitude was cold, and Xia's mother was a little embarrassed. She quickly reached out to help get the things, but Xia Zhizhi slightly avoided it.

"I can do it myself."

Bian Yixiu felt that he was not suitable for him. After opening the door and going home, there was still a vague conversation outside the door.

"Zhizhi, do you cook by yourself at home?"

"Um."

"Today, mom cooks for you to eat. What do you want to eat?"

Xia Zhizhi looked at Xia's mother, who was wearing luxurious skirts and precious jewelry, had excellent skin care, which was a little younger than before. Her hands were obviously often maintained, and her manicures were still new...

I’m afraid I haven’t entered the kitchen after the divorce?

The facts are as Xia Zhizhi guessed. Xia’s mother is now struggling to deal with a fish. Xia Zhizhi can’t stand it and takes care of it by herself.

Seeing that her daughter's face was not very good, she no longer insisted on cooking.

When dinner was finished, Xia Zhizhi came out with soup and saw the man sitting next to the dining table. He was slightly stunned. Why was he here?

Bian Yixiu also knew that he was not familiar with his neighbors and it was not good to eat free meals, but... the food was so delicious that he couldn't help it. Xia's mother invited him, so he agreed.

Xia’s mother thought it was simple. Her daughter was in poor health and she lived alone but didn’t like nannies. She had a good relationship with her neighbors and could take care of any troubles in the future.

Xia’s mother smiled, “I invited Mr. Bian to come here. Zhizhi, it’s time to invite the neighbors to have a meal.”

Xia Zhizhi remained silent, but added a pair of bowls and chopsticks.

Bian Yixiu didn't expect that a girl who looked just a high school student had such a good cooking skills.

Thinking of this, I am an adult in my twenties and order takeout every day and go to the restaurant...

With two more people here, Xia Zhizhi was a little absent-minded in the meal. She just looked at the man who was eating slowly across the street. She seemed to be very satisfied with these dishes... and her appetite was better.

A man has a good face, especially those pair of eyes. When he accidentally meets him, his mind will always be blank, and there is really only that person left between heaven and earth.

After dinner, Xia Zhizhi stopped her.

A noble lady who was pampered at home ran to her and needed to cook and wash dishes... as if she was wronged.

Xia’s mother was disheartened with her daughter, but she knew that it was her fault that she and her daughter would become like this now.

After all, I didn't stay here and left that night.

Xia Zhizhi looked through the window as Xia’s mother got into the car, and the car left, sighing slightly.

In fact, sometimes, it is much better than meeting each other without meeting.
