Xu Xu Xiangyi

Chapter 12

"I talked to Xiaoying about dating today, and Xiaoying said that she wanted to discuss it with you."

As soon as Chu Yiyi connected to the video, she saw Xiaoying's round face pressed against her, and then Xu Min's voice sounded beside her.

"Sister Yiyi, good evening!"

"Good evening, Xiaoying." Chu Yiyi smiled, and waved her hands at the little guy, "Where does Xiaoying want to go on the weekend?"

"You can go anywhere!" Xiaoying opened her mouth and smiled, a little white was exposed at the place where the gap was before, and it seemed that two small tooth buds had grown out.

"Sister Yiyi, my mother bought me a new dress, and I'm going to wear it to see you on Sunday!" She nodded and said vigorously, "There is a super beautiful bow on it!"

"Wow!" Chu Yiyi exclaimed cooperatively, "Then Xiaoying must look better in it!"

"There are more..." Xiaoying was even happier after being praised, and danced and told Chu Yiyi the story that happened in the kindergarten during the day.

Chu Yiyi responded softly, until Xu Min, who was present in the voice-over, got the phone and looked at her.

"Xiaoying is a little too excited tonight, you..." Seeing her expression, Xu Min was slightly taken aback, "Where are you?"

"Outside." Chu Yiyi responded, "But I'm going back soon."

Xu Min hummed, and then Chu Yiyi heard her and Xiaoying discussing what time to go to bed, and the words that today's bedtime story should stop first.

The phone was quiet, and it took a while before she saw Xu Min's face.

"Do you want to meet?" Xu Min looked at her with unconcealable worry in his eyes.

When Chu Yiyi heard her words, she seemed to see a hand appearing in front of her, as if she wanted to drag herself out of this gloomy world.

She was about to reach out, but the remaining rationality struggled again.

"No need." Chu Yiyi paused, lowered her eyes slightly, and said again, "I'm going back."

Xu Min hummed, and said hello again. She was wearing earphones, and her voice was a little soft.

Chu Yiyi breathed lightly and listened quietly to her speech.

The screen flashed for a moment, and Xu Min fixed the phone on the table, and then packed his things at the entrance.

Chu Yiyi looked at her, and asked after a while, "Are you busy first?"

Xu Min shook her head, "No delay." In her hand was Xiaoying's small schoolbag, and she was putting her homework in it.

"After Xiaoying's drawing of cats was praised by the teacher last time, she really liked drawing."

Xu Min opened Xiaoying's picture book, and said softly while showing her the childlike graffiti.

Chu Yiyi subconsciously smiled, and felt a little more relaxed.

"When the weather gets warmer, she doesn't like to drink hot water." Xu Min unscrewed the thermos and poured boiling water into it. "It's better the night before, and it will be warm the next day."

"I don't like drinking hot water either." Chu Yiyi answered.

Xu Min smiled, "Then I'll bring you a thermos next time."

Chu Yiyi felt that her heart had been poked. She looked at Xu Min and asked intentionally, "Should I still make a handful of goji berries?"

Xu Min stopped what he was doing, and looked at her, "Why don't you put an iced Coke?"

Chu Yiyi laughed out loud.

The coat to be worn is placed on the hanger at the entrance, so as not to get entangled when I get up early tomorrow, the rice cooker in the kitchen is set at a time, and I can drink porridge after I wash up in the morning...

Seeing her busy, Chu Yiyi gradually calmed down.

She occasionally interjects, such as the coffee in this shop is terrible.

Another example is that the waiters in the store are not bad, even if they are sitting idle, they will not rush people.

Xu Min didn't ask her what happened, and Chu Yiyi didn't explain anything.

Just doing nothing and chatting a few words, she has already noticed this person's quiet company.

Until Xu Min sorted out all the things for tomorrow and sat back in front of the phone, Chu Yiyi said softly like her: "Go and rest."

Xu Min didn't answer, just looked at her.

Chu Yiyi lifted her chin lightly, and signaled: "The car is here."

Xu Min hummed, blinked, and said good night.

Chu Yiyi stood at the door, Xu Min's good night was still echoing in her ears, which together with the cool night wind calmed her down.

……

There was a little accident on the weekend date, when Chu Yiyi and Xiaoying were arguing about which is better, cuttlefish balls or crab buns, Xu Min who was on the side received a call for help from Lin Ting.

So the group simply moved to Lin Ting's small one-bedroom apartment with their big bags and small bags.

Chu Yiyi looked at Lin Ting's surprised expression when she opened the door, and stuffed the somewhat heavy supermarket bag into her arms: "You're not welcome?"

Lin Ting almost staggered and fell over, but fortunately, Xu Min who was beside him had quick eyesight and quickly helped him to stand up straight.She hugged the bag that Chu Yiyi stuffed, and whispered, "How dare I..."

"It's useless to dare..." Chu Yiyi walked in by herself, "I bought today's dishes."

Lin Ting sighed helplessly, "Got it, big benefactor, there is something to drink in the refrigerator, you can play with Xiaoying first." She then dragged Xu Min into the kitchen.

Chu Yiyi opened the refrigerator with ease, took out two cans of iced Coke, thought about it and put another bottle back, and then walked into the kitchen.

Xu Min was listening to Lin about the difficulties she encountered in making small cakes. As soon as Chu Yiyi walked in, the small kitchen immediately became crowded.

"I'm here to find the milk I just bought for Xiaoying." Chu Yiyi explained, then looked at the oven in front of them, "Is this why you called your sister?"

Lin Ting frowned and nodded, "Obviously there are no mistakes in the steps, why can't I bake the same type of cake as in the video..."

In the middle of speaking, she suddenly froze for a moment, "Who is your sister?"

Chu Yiyi just found out the children's milk that she just bought, she leaned close to Xu Min who was standing beside her, and then touched her lightly, "Sister..."

Lin Ting opened his eyes slightly, "!"

Chu Yiyi simply put her arms around Xu Min's shoulders, "My sister."

When she walked out of the kitchen, Chu Yiyi could still hear Lin Ting grabbing Xu Min and asking why.

She listened to the disbelief and reluctance in Lin Ting's words, without her usual helplessness and composure, she quietly curled the corners of her mouth.

Xiaoying looked eagerly at the iced cola in Chu Yiyi's hand, and then saw her sister Yiyi showing a little devil smile, and then handed over a bottle of children's milk, "Kids can only drink this, not iced cola. "

"Hmph, Elder Sister Yiyi is now the same as mother." Although her mouth was pouting, Xiaoying still took the milk, and angrily opened her mouth and took a big gulp.

Chu Yiyi sat next to her recklessly, hiccupped after taking a big gulp of iced coke, coupled with the black silhouette suit she was wearing today with exaggerated shoulder width, she felt inexplicably generous.

Xiaoying still couldn't understand this style, she just stood up and stroked her gelled hair, and then asked suspiciously, "Sister Yiyi, your hair is combed like Uncle Xiaojuzi's today."

"Kids, don't touch adults' heads." Chu Yiyi took Xiaoying's hand, "Also, this is handsome."

"The teacher said that being handsome is used to compliment boys." Xiaoying simply lay on top of her, "Sister Yiyi is not a boy."

"Ah..." Chu Yiyi sighed pretending to be sad, "Xiaoying, you have to feel sorry for your teacher, she has seen too few people, so she doesn't know that girls can be handsome."

Xiaoying blinked her eyes, gave a half-comprehensive oh, and asked again, "So you can praise a girl and say she's handsome, right?"

Chu Yiyi nodded vigorously.

"Then I'll praise Xiaojuzi for being handsome next time." Xiaoying grinned, and then continued, "And Sister Xin Ran, Sister Xin Ran is so handsome too!"

Chu Yiyi's face collapsed, "It's fine that Little Orange is handsome, why is there Xin Ran?"

"Because Xiaoying misses her so much." As soon as Xiaoying mentioned Xin Ran, she couldn't stop, "I haven't seen sister Xin Ran for a long time! Mom said sister Xin Ran is very busy recently, even Lin I heard that Auntie hasn't seen her for a long time."

Chu Yiyi was startled, "Has Lin Ting not seen her for a long time?"

"But mom said, Sister Xin Ran will be back later..." Xiaoying got off Chu Yiyi and turned around, "I want to show Sister Xin Ran my new dress!"

Chu Yiyi snorted softly, "I just think about your sister Xin Ran."

Xiaoying is not the only one who only thinks about Xin Ran.

Xu Min glanced at the color of the egg tart inside through the glass, and pressed Lin Ting's hand that was about to open it, "Wait a little longer, maybe the temperature is not enough."

Lin Ting nodded, and she looked at the new oven she bought, with a little expectation in her eyes.

"Why do you suddenly want to buy an oven?" Xu Min asked her with a smile.

"I just feel a little bored, so I need to find something to do." Lin Ting's fingers subconsciously slid back and forth on the kitchen counter, "I happened to see a tutorial on the Internet."

"When you were alone before, I never heard you say...boring." Xu Min tilted his head and looked at her, "What's wrong? What's wrong?"

Lin Ting's fingers paused, and then slowly closed, "I don't know." She raised her eyes to look at the person in front of her, suddenly pouted her mouth, and said with some grievances: "I also find it a bit annoying... such a person who is so concerned about gain and loss .”

"If it's a problem between the two of you, you should talk it out with her, and don't think about it alone." Xu Min reached out and patted Lin Ting's shoulder, "It's normal to have concerns when you're in a relationship."

Lin Ting hummed lightly, inexplicably feeling a little lethargic.

Xu Min reached out and pinched her cheek, and teased, "Do you want to hug and comfort her?"

Embarrassment instantly appeared on Lin Ting's face, "Sister, I'm not Xiaoying."

"So what's the matter?" Xu Min gently hugged her, "In my eyes, he is also a child, and a child who is troubled by love."

Lin Ting sniffled slightly, "Sister..."

"What are you doing?"

Chu Yiyi stood at the door with her arms folded, looked at the two people hugging in the room, her eyebrows raised high, "Does this posture need to be made for cakes?"

Lin Ting was startled at first, and then hugged him even tighter, as if declaring his sovereignty, "We have a good relationship, can't we?"

Chu Yiyi snorted coldly, but walked out without replying.

Only then did Lin Ting let go of her hand, and muttered in confusion, "Why did she react so strongly?"

"Maybe..." Xu Min glanced at Lin Ting, and said in a low voice, "Are you jealous?"

The doubts on Lin Ting's face deepened, but before she could react, there was an extra figure at the door, and he walked over, putting a little distance between her and Xu Min.

Xu Min smiled slightly, "Xin Ran is back?"

The shirt of the person who came in was rolled up to half the arm, and his slender fingers easily grasped Lin Ting's wrist. Then, with a calm expression, he nodded to her, "Sister Min..."

Xu Min responded, then looked outside again, "I'll go out to see Xiaoying."

She went outside and looked at the arrogant Miss Chu who was lying on the sofa, holding a half-drunk Coke in her hand, hanging there, looking a little weak.

Xiaoying ran over, hugged Xu Min and looked up at her, saying happily: "Mom, Sister Xin Ran is back!"

Xu Min nodded, "Yeah, Xiaoying is happy?"

"Yeah!" Xiaoying looked at her mother, then looked into the kitchen, and said with a smile, "Aunt Lin must be very happy too."

Xu Min pinched Xiaoying's nose, "You're a big kid." As she spoke, she had already pulled Xiaoying to Chu Yiyi's side.

Chu Yiyi lowered her eyes and didn't look at her.

Xu Min took the Coke in her hand, but Chu Yiyi turned her face away, neither looked at her nor spoke.

Xiaoying also calmed down, and subconsciously grabbed her mother's sleeve.

Chu Yiyi stood up, opened the door and walked out.

Xiaoying was about to call out, but her mother held her hand. She looked up at her mother, "What's wrong with Sister Yiyi?"

Xu Min knelt down and touched Xiaoying's head, "It's okay, Xiaoying told her mother, what happened just now?"

"Just now, Sister Xin Ran came back, and Sister Yiyi went to open the door, and then they were talking...but I couldn't understand..." Xiaoying's round face drooped, "Mom, Sister Yiyi is not happy."

"Yeah." Xu Min responded lightly, "It will get better."
