delayed love

Bai Xu: "Sometimes I even wonder if there is something wrong with your eyes."

Lin Xi: "..."

"However, you can actually ask me so bluntly, it seems that you really don't like it."

"I'm just curious." Lin Xi still saved some face for him. After all, they all had a crush on others. She understands that feeling.

Bai Xu smiled, "Come on. Whenever you like me a little bit, you won't ask me like that. Isn't your treatment of third brother an example?"

"You were able to ask around the bush until I asked the second brother, but you didn't ask the third brother directly."

"That's liking, that's curiosity."

"You don't need to explain, I understand what you mean. I'm a big man, so I won't let you comfort me. Besides, I never thought about being with you in the first place. "

"To put it bluntly, even if you like me now and want to be with me. Even if you kneel down and beg me, I will not agree."

"..." Lin Xi choked on his breath. Originally, this topic was quite sensitive, so it was a little embarrassing to say it.But being disturbed by Bai Xu, he was left speechless for an instant.

"Don't think I'm joking, I'm telling the truth."

Bai Xu took off his glasses, wiped them and said seriously: "From the moment I first fell in love with you, I never thought about being with you. Otherwise, I would have done it long ago."

"But if you think about it carefully, even if I'm ahead of the third brother and stay with you, according to the wilting and bad temper of the third brother, [-]% of the time I have to poach the corner of my own brother."

"Tsk, it's not impossible for his love brain to do three things for love."

"Don't say it, it's quite exciting to think about it."

As soon as he finished speaking, he was kicked on the leg.

A solid shoe print was branded on his trousers.

Bai Xu didn't even frown, as if he was just waiting for her kick.

"Is it okay to tell the truth?"

Lin Xi folded her arms and squinted at him: "The basis of telling the truth is that what you speak is human."

These words made Bai Xu choke for a while, not knowing what to say.

-

Lin Xi lived in the courtyard these two days, and so did Bai Xu.

Uncle Zhou and Aunt Qing had to go back to work, so they couldn't stay for too long, so they boarded the return flight the next afternoon.

Before boarding the plane, Aunt Qing hugged Lin Xi tightly, "Auntie is waiting for good news from you and Xiaoyu."

"Huh?" Lin Xi was stunned.

How did Aunt Qing know.

Aunt Qing smiled at her, "Your uncle and I were quite worried about you before we came, thinking that you liked your second brother so much when you were young, if you agree, let the two of you settle down first. There must be someone to take care of you It is."

"..." Sure enough, Lin Xi guessed right.

Before she could say anything, Aunt Qing signaled her not to speak, and continued: "But I don't have such thoughts now."

"I asked your second brother in private, and he said that you have someone you like. In addition, although you didn't answer my question directly in the car, you didn't refuse. I went back and thought about it carefully. If not, According to your child's temperament, you must speak directly."

"It's a secret, it's probably true. Adding your second brother's words, I completely dismissed this idea."

"Then how do you know... it's the third brother?"

"You are too obvious." Aunt Qing poked her heart, "Your thoughts are written on your face."

"No way." Lin Xi refused to admit it.

Aunt Qing laughed, "There are no scruples between you and Bai Xu, and you didn't change when you talked about your fourth brother's blind date. But when I chatted with your aunt about Xiaoyu's recent situation, you paid special attention."

Lin Xi: "..."

"Don't worry, Aunt Qing didn't say anything. This is a good thing." Aunt Qing held her hand, "Xixi has someone she likes, and it's too late for Auntie to be happy. I will definitely keep it a secret for you. Auntie is waiting for your good news .”

-

On the way back, Lin Xi asked Bai Xu, "Is it really obvious?"

Bai Xu overheard their conversation, and shrugged his shoulders, noncommittal.

Lin Xi didn't speak any more.

In the evening, Lin Xi received a call from Cheng Si.

Because of the time difference, Cheng Si waited until now before he was free to call her back.

"Just listen to what the old man says, don't take it seriously."

"Don't worry, I know."

"That's good." Cheng Si said half jokingly and half seriously: "You don't know, third brother almost turned against me."

Lin Xi changed the subject, "Did you see the email?"

"Oh that, I've read it. I discussed it with Lao Gao, and I will do it according to your wishes."

"Then let the vice president do what I said at the beginning, and I won't talk to him alone about this issue."

Cheng Si replied, "Okay. I'll call him later."

"Next time if the old man still wants to look for you, you just refuse directly. If you have anything to do, come to me."

"Okay." Lin Xi switched hands to answer the phone, "I can also understand Grandpa Cheng's mood."

"Bad." Cheng Si sighed, "He's just worrying about it now."

Although he said so in his mouth, Cheng Si knew it in his heart.

I also know that grandpa is doing it for his own good.

The next morning, Lin Xi found that the assistant hadn't come for a long time.

Just about to ask, I suddenly caught a glimpse of the desk calendar on the table.

Yes, school anniversary.

Originally, he wanted to ask for one day, but he called him impromptu yesterday and changed it to two days.

Anyway, he was leaving Feiyun soon, Lin Xi didn't care if it was a day or two.

Just respond casually.

"Lin Gong!" Chen Gong's assistant came over to help her temporarily.

"Is there anything you need me to do here?"

"Not yet. You can go to Mr. Chen and get busy. I'll call you when I have something to do."

"okay."

Lin Xi looked through the WeChat list and found the HR manager.

The other party had already received some information in advance, so it was no surprise that Lin Xi would look for her.

However, as explained above, she did not dare to ask more questions.Lin Xi said what she said.

"Help me find a new assistant."

"Does the forest worker have any requirements?"

The manager has asked the same thing before.The answer Lin Xi gave last time was that there was no requirement.

This time, she hesitated, "Fresh graduates, no school restrictions. I will interview in person. Please hurry up."

HR manager: "OK!"

When going to the cafeteria to eat at noon, Lin Xi came back after finishing his meal and found that his seat had been taken.

Her water glass was placed on the opposite side.

Lin Xi stepped forward calmly, sat down opposite, and ate in silence.

Throughout the whole process, the woman on the other side didn't do anything, she kept staring at her blatantly, her eyes lingering on her face.

With a little scrutiny.

Lin Xi put down her chopsticks halfway through eating, clasped her hands under her chin, and stared Qing Lingling directly at the other party: "Did any elders in the family tell you that it is very rude to stare at others like this. "

"You are here, it affects my appetite."
