Lin Yaxin and Jiang Wen had already had dinner outside, but Qu Zhiheng and Han Mengmeng had not yet. Seeing that several women were alone in their bedrooms, Qu Zhiheng smiled helplessly and went to the kitchen to do some simple things.
I cooked two side dishes. I went to Han Mengmeng's bedroom door and knocked on the door.
Han Mengmeng opened the bedroom door, poked her head out and asked, "Is something wrong?"
"It's time to eat." Qu Zhiheng said.
As if this was a matter of course, Han Mengmeng immediately jumped out of her bedroom and followed Qu Zhiheng to the restaurant.
"Did you make it?" Han Mengmeng asked after looking at the two side dishes and rice on the table.
Qu Zhiheng nodded and said, "If it weren't for me, could it be you?" After saying that, Qu Zhiheng felt depressed. Why couldn't all the women living here know how to cook? Or is he really a newbie now?
What about the good men of the times?
Han Mengmeng stretched out her hand to pinch the vegetables on the plate, but Qu Zhiheng slapped her hand and said, "Go, wash your hands."
Han Mengmeng pouted with a reluctant look on her face and went to wash her hands and then came back. Qu Zhiheng handed her the chopsticks and said: "Although you live here now, you still have to deal with the matter of eating.
Tell me. In the morning, I will cook it if I have time, and if I don’t have time, I won’t come to eat at noon. So, no one will cook, and I will only eat it here in the evening. "
Han Mengmeng said vaguely while eating: "I'll eat at school at noon. I'll eat when I come back in the evening, hehe."
"By the way, what did your father tell you?" Qu Zhiheng suddenly remembered this question and couldn't help but ask it.
Hearing Qu Zhiheng's question, Han Mengmeng stopped using her chopsticks and said, "My father only told me that the gang was in trouble, and he didn't tell me anything else. By the way, he also said that I would be left alone after school.
Let’s go, no one will be sent to pick me up.” After saying that, he turned his head and thought for a moment, and said, “It seems like that’s all.”
Qu Zhiheng quickly understood that Han Wei's intention of not sending anyone to pick up Han Mengmeng was to make Han Mengmeng safer.
"Didn't your father tell you why he wanted you to live with me temporarily?" Qu Zhiheng asked the question he wanted to ask the most. He was curious about what Han Wei told Han Mengmeng.
Han Mengmeng replied: "My father said that the gang was in trouble and he didn't have much time to take care of me. He was also afraid of bringing trouble to the family, so he asked me to stay here for a while."
Qu Zhiheng kept looking at Han Mengmeng. Although Han Mengmeng said this calmly, Qu Zhiheng had already noticed from her expression that Han Mengmeng must have guessed something.
"Well, let's eat." After Qu Zhiheng finished speaking, he began to eat.
After the two of them had eaten, Qu Zhiheng rushed Han Mengmeng to the bedroom to do her homework, and he simply cleared the dining table. Just as he was about to go to the living room and turn on the TV to see if there were any good programs, he heard Lin Yaxin's bedroom door "pop"
It opened with a click. Lin Yaxin walked out of the bedroom, went straight to Qu Zhiheng, and said softly: "Come with me for a walk."
Lin Yaxin had never asked Qu Zhiheng for anything, and she had never shown such an expression. Qu Zhiheng was stunned and said, "Okay." But there was a faint feeling of uneasiness in his heart, and this feeling was getting stronger and stronger.
The two of them changed their shoes without saying a word, opened the door and went downstairs. However, as soon as they went out, Jiang Wen's door opened with a "click", revealing Jiang Wen's face staring at the door in a daze...
After Qu Zhiheng and Lin Yaxin went downstairs, they did not walk far, but walked in the artificial garden inside the Lantian Community. The night sky was full of stars and the cool breeze blew away the irritability caused by the heat during the day.
Walking on the path in the dimly lit garden, neither of them spoke. The atmosphere was a little dull and depressing. Qu Zhiheng was so stressed that he felt like he couldn't breathe.
"What's wrong with you today? Why do you suddenly want to go out for a walk?" Qu Zhiheng broke the silence first. He really couldn't stand it anymore.
Lin Yaxin's eyes were a little wandering, and she didn't know what she was looking at. After a long time, she sighed and said, "I'm leaving."
Qu Zhiheng's heart tightened for no reason and asked: "Where are you going?"
"Go where I should go." Lin Yaxin's answer was like saying nothing.
Qu Zhiheng did not dwell on this issue, but asked: "Will you come back?" His tone was extremely calm, but his heart was in a mess, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
"I don't know, maybe, maybe not." Lin Yaxin stopped and looked at Qu Zhiheng and said, as if she wanted to wait for an answer from Qu Zhiheng.
Qu Zhiheng also stopped, looked at Lin Yaxin, and said, "Do you have to leave? Can't you not leave?"
Hearing Qu Zhiheng's words, Lin Yaxin felt warm in her heart. It seemed that what she was waiting for was Qu Zhiheng's words. A smile appeared on her face and she said, "Yes, we can't do it unless we leave."
Qu Zhiheng sighed inwardly and asked, "When are you leaving?"
Lin Yaxin thought for a while and said: "It will be in these two days. I'm not sure about the specific day yet."
"Tell me when you leave and I will see you off." Qu Zhiheng said lightly.
"Okay." Lin Yaxin agreed without thinking. In fact, how could she not be sure when she would leave? She just said this to avoid Qu Zhiheng having to see her off. This time she received a notice asking her to
Go back immediately, the matter is urgent, how can you delay it?
The two of them continued to walk forward, and there was no topic of conversation for a while. They were each immersed in their own thoughts. After a while, Lin Yaxin asked: "After I leave, will you rent the room I live in to others?"
"
Hearing Lin Yaxin's question, Qu Zhiheng smiled and asked: "Do you want me to rent it to others?"
When Lin Yaxin heard Qu Zhiheng asking her question with a smile, she angrily turned her head and rolled her eyes at Qu Zhiheng, and said angrily: "I'm asking you, tell me quickly, will you rent it to others?"
Qu Zhiheng was secretly amused in his heart. You are about to leave, so why do you still care about this kind of legacy?
Immediately he said seriously: "Rent, what are you keeping so many rooms for? I can also collect some rent if you rent them out, it's a good deal."
Qu Zhiheng's words made Lin Yaxin very uncomfortable, and said angrily: "I see you are obsessed with money. This is my bank card. I give it to you. It is considered to be the rent paid to you in advance. I have rented that room for a long time."
."
Qu Zhiheng took the bank card and looked at it several times, as if to confirm whether the card was counterfeit. His actions made Lin Yaxin very angry.
Qu Zhiheng had been secretly paying attention to Lin Yaxin, and when he thought it was almost done, he laughed out loud, put the bank card into Lin Yaxin's hand, and said with a smile: "Give it back to you."
"What? You won't rent it to me?" Lin Yaxin asked in confusion.
Qu Zhiheng looked up at the night sky and said in a calm but firm tone: "That room will always be reserved for you."
Lin Yaxin stared at Qu Zhiheng, unable to speak for a long time, but there was clearly a light in her eyes...
