Who says those who retire at the speed of light are not heroes?

Jiang Li slowly walked towards his room, lay down on his bed, and carefully grabbed the quilt to cover herself. Lin Cheng watched her close her eyes and breathed a sigh of relief, "Go to sleep."

"Well, thank you...Lin Cheng."

"It's fine."

Lin Cheng turned off the lights in her room, came to the sofa in the living room and turned off the lights. He had been going to bed lately, so he turned on the TV and played an American TV series. After watching it for two hours, he yawned, turned off the TV and closed his eyes.

Go to sleep!

....................................

The next day, early morning.

Lin Cheng woke up, got up and went back to his room to take a look. His room was open, but there was no one inside. He thought Jiang Li had left first. He rubbed his eyes and saw that the door of the study next door was also open. Jiang Li was sitting at the desk, holding a collection of short stories by Ryunosuke Akutagawa on his bookshelf.

"I'm sorry for causing you trouble last night." Jiang Li said in a low voice.

"It's okay." Lin Cheng shook his head and went to the bathroom to wash up. When he came back, Jiang Li was still holding the book and reading it seriously. She didn't even notice that Lin Cheng walked into the room. Lin Cheng didn't say anything. She only came to her senses when Lin Cheng sat opposite her.

"Are you hungry?" Lin Cheng asked her.

"A little."

"Then let's go downstairs and have a bowl of noodles. I'll take you home after you finish eating."

"Well, Lin Cheng..."

"Ok?"

"Can you lend me this book?"

"Okay." Lin Cheng nodded, so Jiang Li put the book into her bag and went downstairs with him. They each ordered a bowl of beef noodles. Jiang Li whispered, "I, I can take a taxi myself."

"It's all right. It depends on whether you want to take my car or take a taxi."

After saying this, Jiang Li lowered her head for a while before slowly raising her head, "Then... can I take your car?"

"Let's go."

Lin Cheng put the helmet on her and Jiang Li sat on the back of his motorcycle. She pressed her body against his back because she was scared. Half an hour later, Lin Cheng sent her downstairs. Jiang Li got off the motorcycle and returned the helmet to Lin Cheng and put it on carefully for him.

"So, I'm going home then?"

"OK Bye Bye."

Lin Cheng watched her waving cautiously, and sat on the motorcycle watching her gradually walk away. When she was about to disappear at the end of his sight, her footsteps became much more cheerful, as if she was jumping and skipping.

The corners of Lin Cheng's mouth twitched slightly.

So is he overthinking?

....................................

Come back home.

After returning home, Lin Cheng saw another message from Jiang Li. It was a passage from the book he had lent out, and then she talked to him about the life of Akutagawa Ryunosuke. Lin Cheng suddenly realized that if she lent out this book, wouldn't she have to return it next time?

Sure enough, more than ten minutes later, Lin Cheng caught the key information from the chat, "Thank you for taking care of me when I drank too much last night. I will return the book to you next time I treat you to a meal. Next time, I will definitely not drink too much next time."

She posted another cat emoji.

Lin Cheng silently saved the cat emoticon package, and hesitated for five seconds whether to say that he should keep the book instead of returning it. In the end, he did not send it. This woman has a lot of cat emoticons, which are of some use.

Lin Cheng forwarded the cat emoji package to Xu Wanyue, "Look at the little feet."

"No."

"Then look at the collarbone."

"nor."

"Then look at your hands. Look at your hands. There must be something, right?"

Xu Wanyue took a photo of his hand. Her hands were very beautiful, but this time she was wearing white lace gloves. Lin Cheng's eyes widened, "Eh, so astringent!"

"What's so embarrassing about it? This was given to me as a gift when I bought a lolita skirt." Xu Wanyue typed a reply.

"Why would you buy a lolita skirt?"

"Xiaoxiao recommended it to me. We are going to the comic convention next month."

"Not taking me?"

"Didn't Xiaoxiao tell you?"

"..."

Lin Cheng and Lu Xiaoxiao chat seldom, mainly because Lu Xiaoxiao sends him a lot of messages, and he usually responds with “umm, oh, ok, that’s great, awesome, cool.”

I guess she was angry because of his perfunctory treatment. Being angry is good. Being angry means she has come to her senses again.

....................................

evening.

Lin Cheng lay back on the bed and continued to be in a daze.

He has always been an insomniac, and it is not easy for him to fall asleep. He tossed and turned at night these past few days, and occasionally felt lonely, probably because Lu Xiaoxiao was always by his side the past few nights, and these few days... These few days, Lin Cheng couldn't sleep at night and went to chat with Jiang Li.

The two of them have talked about everything from Dazai Osamu to Wen Yiduo, and from One Hundred Years of Solitude to Love in the Time of Cholera. It has been a long time since Lin Cheng last read a book. He really admires Jiang Li. She actually remembers the names of the characters in One Hundred Years of Solitude. If it were any other time, he really wouldn't be able to continue the conversation. It turns out that people can do anything when they are bored. The reason why he and Jiang Li chatted was that she really had countless cat pictures. There was a suitable cat picture for every two sentences she sent. Lin Cheng didn't know how many he had stolen.

Before I knew it, another three days had passed.

Lin Cheng and Jiang Li’s chat history is endless. Recently, they finally stopped talking about books and started talking about movies. Jiang Li shared with Lin Cheng an app that allows them to watch movies via microphone. In the evening, the two of them watched movies and chatted via microphone.

The main reason was that she had a nice voice, and her soft tone really made me sleepy. They were watching art films, so Lin Cheng would always fall asleep while watching them at night, and Jiang Li would never blame him.

"I fell asleep again last night. Your voice is really good for curing insomnia." After waking up, Lin Cheng sent her a message to apologize.

"Then shall I tell you a bedtime story tonight?"

Lin Cheng's eyes became alert again.

……no.

...You are harmed by a woman, Lin Cheng. A woman obviously only treats you as a close friend, but after chatting with her for a few sentences you think she might like you. You are bad. If you continue like this, you will really become a slave man.

At night, Lin Cheng put his cell phone aside, listened to her softly telling the story of the Little Mermaid, and soon fell asleep.

The next day, we chatted again.

Jiang Li is really good at chatting, doesn't she have her own things to do? Lin Cheng couldn't help thinking, he has seen Jiang Li share a lot of her life with him. In the afternoon, Lin Cheng lay on the sofa lazily watching TV and saw the message sent by Jiang Li. She bought French underwear with great design, which is very suitable for a little bear girl like her.

No matter how Lin Cheng thought about it, he felt that she was hinting at him to continue with the sentence, but it didn't work. Lin Cheng knocked his head.

"how is it like?"

………She must have been just talking casually.

Jiang Li: [Picture] [Picture] [Picture]

Jiang Li: You can’t send it to others.

Jiang Li: Cat kowtows.jpg

137 Good at pinching

In fact, those three pictures can’t be said to be very embarrassing.

The bra style she sent out was the kind with lace bra binding, which only slightly revealed a little bit of soft flesh on her chest. The photo was taken in front of a mirror, and Lin Cheng felt that what was even more attractive was her slender waist and cute belly button under the bra.

But Lin Cheng was a little overwhelmed.

He now really wanted to look through the chat records of the past few days to confirm that he really didn't talk to her about anything obscene. He didn't take the initiative. His head was dizzy.

"It's very pretty. The lace is so cute."

“I think so too.”

Then there was another picture of the cat blinking.

....................................

Lin Cheng just found out that Jiang Li studied psychology at university. Lin Cheng was quite curious about this. He had read some miscellaneous books on psychology and even had a copy of Psychology and Life at home that he used to pad the corner of his desk.

"Psychology is not as mysterious as everyone thinks. It is just a subject used to explain human behavior. I used to suffer from depression a lot, so I want to learn some psychology to change myself."

"Oh, yes, out of curiosity, what is the mechanism of fetish?"

"Fetishism is a sexual perversion that is exclusive to men. It is a denial of sexual desire and reality..."

Jiang Li patiently answered Lin Cheng's questions, and Lin Cheng suddenly understood. But the next second, he saw the message sent by Jiang Li and started rolling on the bed.

"But actually fetish itself is nothing, it's just a hobby, just like foot fetish, although it belongs to the category of fetish, but as long as it does not affect your life, it is fine, and it may not be due to sexual perversion, it may also be due to the desire of others, don't worry, there is no need to label yourself."

"Wait, I didn't say..."

"Oh, it's okay. My future career plan is to be a psychological counselor. I will keep all these things confidential."

Lin Cheng began to change the subject and hurriedly passed over this topic. Jiang Li talked about the tomato beef soup she made in the evening and took a photo for Lin Cheng. Lin Cheng politely replied that it looked delicious and he wanted to eat it. He continued to chat casually, but half an hour later, there was a knock on his door.

Lin Cheng was startled and walked to the door and opened it.

Jiang Li was wearing a black dress and holding a thermos bucket in her hand.

................................................

"Why are you here?" Lin Cheng was stunned.

"Didn't you say you hadn't had dinner yet?" Jiang Li's eyes flickered gently, "It just so happened that I made a little more."

Lin Cheng was speechless for a moment.

Jiang Li was wearing a black dress with a very silky hem. Her feet were wearing pointed leather boots with stiletto heels and her ankles were covered with black lace socks.

She has a tall figure, but this kind of cute outfit actually suits her very well. She came to the table and opened the thermos box, which contained rice and tomato beef soup. Lin Cheng poured the tomato beef soup into the rice.

It’s really great.

Lin Cheng was full and looked at her eagerly. Suddenly he thought of something and asked cautiously, "Did you bring the book?"

Jiang Li was startled for a moment, and after a moment she replied with some annoyance, "I was in such a hurry to go out that I forgot to bring it."

"It's okay, then..."

"I will definitely not forget next time." Jiang Li clasped her hands together and promised Lin Cheng seriously. Lin Cheng didn't even have the chance to say the second half of the sentence, 'Why don't I give it to you?'

It's obviously not a difficult thing to say, but looking at Jiang Li's bright and gentle eyes, I always... can't say it.

The rice in tomato beef soup was delicious. Jiang Li put away the lunch box and whispered, "Then I'll go home first. I promised to walk with my mother..."

Jiang Li told Lin Cheng that her mother suffered from depression. Lin Cheng nodded and watched Jiang Li pick up the thermos and walk out the door again. The moment she opened the door, Lin Cheng suddenly called her name.

"Huh?" Jiang Li turned her head.

"It's delicious...thank you." Lin Cheng said seriously.

"It's okay. I'll bring you something delicious next time."

After Jiang Li left, Lin Cheng's expression became a little crazy.

...You are such a mean person, Lin Xiaocheng.

....................................

Jiang Li: What story do you want to hear tonight? I have prepared The Princess and the Pea and a ghost story.

"Then let's have a ghost story."

Lin Cheng put the phone aside. The only sound in the quiet room was Jiang Li's voice. Her voice was gentle and soft, but as she spoke, Jiang Li's voice began to tremble. She paused for a moment and whispered, "How scary."

Lin Cheng was amused and instantly lost all his sleepiness. His laughter came through the phone, and he heard Jiang Li complaining faintly, "You're still laughing..."

Jiang Li continued to tell him the story. After finishing it, she cleared her throat and continued to read the story of the Princess and the Pea. Before going to bed, Lin Cheng whispered to her that he would treat her perfunctorily starting tomorrow!

As long as you are perfunctory enough times, the passion will gradually fade. Unconditional attraction does not exist. The only secret to ensuring romance is to maintain freshness.

....................................

Jiang Li: Which one should I buy, this clavicle chain or this clavicle chain? I'm so confused.

Lin Cheng: Buy them all.

Jiang Li: I went to eat puffer fish with my mother at noon. It tasted great, but the texture of the puffer fish skin was a little weird.
