Wu, a warehouse manager who is about the same age and with whom I have a good conversation, told me, “Yichen, do you know that there is a new assistant in the export department?” I said jokingly, “Oh, young lady! A young beauty, I’ve got another chance.” Wu teased me, “I’m talking about you! Even if I send someone to you, you still can’t catch up, I think you should change your last name to Han.” I asked him a bit puzzled, “Why should I be surnamed Han?” He laughed in Taiwanese as he held out the material to me, “You don’t believe me when I say you are “Han Slow”!” I took the material and said to Wu with a smile, “Thank you very much! I still have something to do, I’m leaving first!”
Back to the fifth floor just to enter the studio, I saw a girl I do not know back to me, she stood in the doorway of the studio looking around inside, like looking for something, from her back, she has a head of slightly reddish-brown playful short hair, height of about 160 centimeters or so, wearing a very casual, a white cap T with a pair of dark blue brushed white jeans.
I came up behind her and kindly opened my mouth to ask her, “What can I do for you, miss?” She was coldly surprised by me! She looked a little nervous and shy as she asked me, “Um~ May I ask if the head of the production team is in?”
While she was talking, I was curious to examine this unseen girl from head to tail, her first impression on me is that her skin is very white, small delicate face without a single blemish, reddish-brown slightly diagonally parted hair stream, leaving a small handful of bangs to cover her small forehead.
Her eyebrows are light brown, long and thin, slightly upturned, a pair of bright eyes blinking with long eyelashes, as if they could speak, small straight nose, shaped lines outlined her small pink lips, I guess she should be the little sister of the new assistant in the export department, as Wu said!
She was holding a product that looked like it needed to be repaired and a couple of documents, and watched as the expression on her face as she looked at me changed from one of nervousness and unease at first, biting her lower lip lightly, to a gradual change to a light frown, slightly raised eyebrows, and a quizzical look! I realized that I had been sizing her up and had forgotten to answer her words! I realized that this girl wasn’t just innocent and beautiful on the outside, I guessed she had a lot more cute expressions.
I smiled slightly and said, “Well, I am.” Defusing the tension in her mind. She also revealed a smile, as if relieved to say, “I looked for a long time, finally found you!” Our manager said that this was a product sent back from abroad to be repaired, and that it had to be fixed before the end of the day, and was in a hurry to be sent out to the customer, so he was bothering the team leader to handle it quickly.
I asked her, “So what part of the customer response is the problem? So that I can deal with it faster.” She hurriedly rummaged through the inspection sheet in her hand, and after searching for a while she nervously said, “He didn’t write it down, what should I do?”
I brought the thing in for a cursory inspection and told her, “I think a part broke off inside, I’ll replace it with a new one in about ten minutes, do you want to come in and wait?” She nodded happily and said, “Really? Great! Thank you then.” .
During the maintenance and disassembly, I introduced myself first: “My name is Lin Yichen, the Yichen of Floating, the Chen of Star, and I am the team leader of the production department’s assembly and disassembly team.” Responsible for the assembly and maintenance part of the company’s products. I don’t think I’ve seen you before. Are you new here?
She introduced herself shyly, “My name is Yin Jiaxie, Jia of Ka Reward, Kusakisi, I’m the new assistant in the export department, please ask the team leader for more guidance in the future.” I asked her with concern, “I’m sure you don’t know a lot of things when you first joined the company, so you’ve been very busy these past few days, haven’t you?” As if she had finally found someone she could talk to, she opened her mouth and kept talking, “Yes! I don’t know a lot of things, and I don’t even know anyone.” Every day like a headless fly in the company running around, our manager every day after the instructions I should do things can not be found. Other people in the department are also busy with their own business and don’t have time to pay attention to me, so I don’t know who to ask, and I haven’t been able to do a single thing well in the past few days! I’m so frustrated that I feel like I can’t do it anymore!
Sensing her helplessness, I naturally comforted her by saying, “This is normal, I was just like you when I first joined the company, and it won’t be like this after I stay for a while.” I went on to say, “By the way! If you don’t know anything in the company and can’t find anyone to ask, you can ask me, maybe I can help you.” She said happily, “Really? Team Leader, you have to keep your word!” I smiled and replied, “Of course it’s true!”
She was a bit touched and said, “Team Leader, you’ve been the only one who’s treated me better since I joined the company!” I said, “If I don’t know how to take care of the people underneath me, how can I be a team leader?” She thought it made sense and nodded her head in agreement. I jokingly said, “Oh! This little girl just joined the company and already knows how to kiss ass, I think you will have no problem in the future!” She blushed shyly and defended, “No, I don’t know how to kiss ass! I don’t know how to kiss ass, I mean it!”
At this time, I also repaired the thing in the maintenance list signed, picked up the repaired such as new products handed over to her hands, kindly reminded her to take the documents to the production manager to sign, and then send the things to the warehouse on it, she happily said several times, “Team Leader, thank you! She happily said several times, “Team Leader, thank you!” before taking the things and walking out.
But in less than three seconds she walked back, spat out her tongue and asked me awkwardly, “I’m sorry! Team Leader, may I ask, who is the manager of the production department?” I told her half-jokingly, “Wow! You come out to hang out, but you don’t even know my top boss, let my boss know, you won’t have a good life from now on!” She said anxiously, “Team leader, please! Help me!” I prompted her, “The one with the biggest office seat on this floor is the one.” As soon as she finished speaking, she ran out of the studio in a huff and went to look for one seat at a time.
The next morning not long after work, I happened to go to the twelfth floor of the quality control department to borrow a precision measuring instrument, as soon as I got into the elevator, I saw Jiaxie and fifty-something years old export department manager Zhang in the elevator to talk about business, through the reflection of the elevator door mirrors, I saw the face of Jiaxie, who stood behind me, was very tense and unnatural look.
I found that Manager Zhang’s mouth although it is in and Jiaxi to confide in the official business: “This you know how to go to work? You have to notify the warehouse of the shipment first, and then go to play the shipping order …… You must be no problem, I am very optimistic about you, perform well, there is a chance I will pull you up as a deputy.” But his other hand, but unruly in Jia Xi’s back, intentionally or unintentionally stroking also lightly patted her buttocks.
I couldn’t look away and hurriedly turned my head to Manager Zhang, “Manager Zhang, long time no see!” I held out my hand to shake his and even squeezed Jia Xi behind my wide back in the process. He hurriedly pulled his hand out from behind Jia Xi to shake my hand and said with a nervous expression, “Team Leader Lin, long time no see!” I grabbed his hand and said to him, “I heard that the manager had gotten a lot of orders for the company in the U.S. a while ago, and the chairman of the board was very happy, so I think this year’s year-end package will be even bigger.” I kept bluffing until the elevator door opened on the fifth floor, then I let go of his hand: “Manager Zhang, come to our production department again when you have time, I have to go beforehand.”
I purposely pushed Jiaxie out, lest she foolishly enter the elevator again and wait to fall into the tiger’s mouth, I purposely pretended to be unfamiliar and said to her in a somewhat fierce tone, “Hey! The new little sister, last time you have a document left at my place and forgot to take it.” “Do you still want that document or not? If not, I’ll throw it away!”
She hurriedly followed me, I led her into the lounge of the production department and turned on the light and closed the door, her face was full of shocked expression and said, “I’m sorry, team leader, where are the documents?” I first made a cup of hot tea and handed it to her and said, “There are no documents at all, I called you here on purpose by saying that, are you alright in the elevator just now?” She slightly reddened her eyes and said with a blushing expression on her face, “I…I’m fine, Team Leader, thank you!” I reminded her, “Your Manager Zhang is a famous salty pig in the company, the last assistant lady in your department was like this before she stopped doing it, didn’t anyone tell you?” She said aggrieved, “No, I’ve only been here for a short time, and I don’t know many people in the department.” I urged her, “In the future, try to follow the department’s young lady a little tighter, don’t give that old pervert an opportunity to take advantage of.”
I told her, “Take a break and calm down, you can go out later.” As I was walking out to take the door with me, she called out to me, “Team Leader …… Well…Yichen, thank you!” I turned my head to give her a smile and led the door to my business. It just so happened that our manager came over and asked me, “Yichen, there’s someone inside?” I casually made up an excuse and said, “No. The new girl is not feeling well! The new girl is not feeling well, I let her rest inside.” The manager asked, “Is it serious? Do you need to see a doctor?” I said, “I don’t think it’s anything, she’ll be fine after some rest.” The manager then said, “Then don’t disturb her, let her have a good rest.”
A few days later, a few close colleagues in the company, we agreed to go to a newly opened Japanese barbecue restaurant near the company to have a get-together after work. After clocking out I was about to go for a ride on my motorcycle, when I saw Jiaxie, who was also about to leave work, she saw me and took the initiative to greet me and thank me for helping her out in the elevator last time.
Seeing that she didn’t seem to be in a hurry to go home, I casually asked her if she wanted to go along to Gathering H She said with a hesitant expression, “I do want to go, but I don’t know many people in the company very well, and there’s no one who’s asked me out.” “It seems too abrupt if I go, forget it! I think I’d rather not go.” I encouraged her, “It’s because you don’t know them well, that’s why it’s all the more important for you to go and get to know them, they’re all very nice, and it’ll be easier for you to move around the company in the future.” Besides, didn’t I ask you out just now? Let’s go! Let’s go!
Still struggling inside, she asked me, “Wouldn’t it really be weird for me to go?” I said, “No! It won’t! A few of them can’t wait to welcome a pretty little beauty when they see one!” She was amused and laughed out loud, “Really? Okay! All right! I’ll go!”
I rode my new motorcycle out of the parking lot and stopped in front of her and said, “Get on!” She was surprised and said, “Wow! That’s a big bike you’ve got there! It’s so cool!” I said proudly, “This 150 C.C. heavy-duty RV-150 cost me two months’ salary to buy.” You’re lucky you just bought it! It’s the first girl I’ve ever driven!
She said happily, “Really? It’s my first time to ride such a big locomotive, but will I get you a ticket if I don’t wear a helmet?” I said, “Don’t worry! Even if I get a ticket, it will be paid by me, the team leader, not by you, the assistant.” She quickly defended herself and said, “You misunderstood, I didn’t mean it like that.” I teased her and said, “I know, I was joking with you, of course I won’t rush to pay with you!” She said “Wow”! Then she finally realized, and with two cheeks puffed out, she said, “What did you say?” I explained to her, “This road is my commute to work, there are several traffic lights and police officers on the road, I know exactly, so I won’t get caught.”
Along the way, she told me, “When she was still in school, her class would sometimes go out with some boys from other schools.” Those bad hearted boys always like to ride a small motorcycle is also very stinky, machine seat and small, every time to be carried, sitting very uncomfortable even if, along the way they also deliberately fierce throttle, emergency brake want to eat girls tofu, she hates this kind of men ……… etc..
After a while, it stopped, I turned my head to her and said, “Miss has arrived, you should get off too!” So reluctant to get off, or I go in first to eat, you continue to sit here, by the way, help me watch the car well.” She was too embarrassed to jump out of the car and said, “I’m sorry! Sitting too comfortably made me forget.” While locking the bike, I jokingly said to her, “You like to be driven so much, I’ll take you out on my bike some other day.” She said with a serious expression, “Really? I’d love to go out on vacation, but I don’t know how to ride a motorcycle, and I don’t know any fun places to go, so I can only stay at home in boredom.” I asked her, “Then how do you usually come to work?” She replied honestly, “I always catch the bus early in the morning.” I admired her from the bottom of my heart, “What a hardworking girl!”
When I entered the room, I greeted everyone warmly, and Xiaohui, the accountant of the taxation class, said, “Yichen, when did you get a beautiful girlfriend? Why don’t you introduce her to everyone?” Jiaxie’s face turned red on the spot, and just as I was about to explain, Xiaoqi from the domestic department beat me to it by saying, “No, you guys don’t know that. She’s the new assistant in the export department of our company, Yin Jiaxie.”
Jiaxie was a bit embarrassed to introduce herself to everyone, “My name is Yin Jiaxie, I’m 24 years old and I just graduated from college the year before last.” I’m glad to get to know you all, and I’m looking forward to hearing from you in the future if there’s anything I don’t understand. Then Xiao Chen from the processing team, Xiao Wu from the warehouse management, Ah Long from the R&D department, and Xiao Zheng from the purchasing department were the first to introduce themselves, and each of them emphasized that they were “unmarried” and did not have “girlfriends” to Jiaxi.
As a result, Xiaohui, the accountant, heard this and said in an intimidating tone to Xiao Chen, who was sitting next to her, “Are you ~sure~ that you’re unmarried?” Xiao Chen immediately changed her words and said, “I mean I’m not married this year.” Hearing Xiao Chen say that, everyone burst out laughing! Only JiaXi still doesn’t know what we’re laughing at? She had a puzzled look on her face. All of us here, except Cassie, know that Chen and Hui met in the company, fell in love, and got married last year. I explained to Jiaxie, “Chen got married last year, and Hui is his wife.” Cassie realized what we were laughing about! She said to Chen, “Oh, you want to cheat on me!” Chen jokingly said to me, “Yichen, you’re not enough of a friend! Spitting on me in front of a pretty girl.” This led to another round of laughter.
Xiao Wu said in front of everyone, “Yichen, I heard that a while ago, your manager did not introduce a girl to you to get to know, and even helped you ask her to have dinner with you.” As I ate, I said, “That’s right! How come you’re so well-informed?” He asked curiously, “Of course! What news can escape my ears, and what happened?” “Well, I was quite impressed with her, she seemed very comfortable, but she didn’t talk much, and after dinner, she and I went to sing at a karaoke bar for two hours.”
Zheng asked curiously, “What happened then? Did she contact you again afterward?” I said, “No.” Xiao Wu said, “Then you won’t take the initiative to call her.” I honestly said, “I don’t have her cell phone number, she didn’t give it to me.” Wu asked again, “She didn’t give it to you, so you won’t ask her for it?”
I said, “If she’s still impressed with me, she should give me the number of her cell phone so I can ask her out next time I get a chance.” But she didn’t say anything by the time it was over, and I thought maybe I wasn’t the type she had in mind, so I just let it go.
Changing Xiaohui said with disappointment, “I’m really defeated by you!” She told me, “Even if the girl has a good impression of you, girls are always a bit more reserved, so how can they ask for it?” So you, as a boy, have to be more proactive and ask her first, or else you will have to wait until when to get a girlfriend.
Xiao Qi said helpfully, “Yichen ah! It’s not that I’m talking, you’re just too honest, you think for others first in everything.”
Aron chipped in and said, “Yeah! That’s right! Haven’t you heard that nowadays “men are not bad, women do not love”, you will never find a girl you like in your life like this! You’ll never find a girl you like in this way!
In my heart, I was sighing, but I forced a smile in front of everyone. I flirted with myself and said, “This is probably my biggest flaw! It seems that if I don’t change it properly, no girl will really look at me!” I pretended to be thirsty and took a big gulp of my drink, so as to wash away the sour feeling that was hovering in the center of my heart! As soon as I lifted my head, I was met with Cassie’s smiling expression as she gazed at me. Cough, cough, cough, I almost choked!
Xiao Chen laughed at me and said, “Yichen, the drinks are unlimited, you’re drinking in such a hurry because you’re afraid you won’t get enough aren’t you?” Jiaxie, she smiled and pretended to chat with everyone as if nothing had happened, I doubt there was anything on my face? Otherwise why would she be looking at me for nothing, then I didn’t care too much about it, in the warm atmosphere, gradually she also hit it off with everyone.
When the meeting broke up, it was probably close to nine o’clock in the evening, and Jiaxi said, “Yat-sen, could you please drive me to the nearest bus stop, and I’ll just take the bus home myself.” I told her, “There aren’t many people in the industrial area at night after work, plus sometimes there are drunken foreign workers hanging around.” It’s pretty dangerous for a girl waiting for the bus alone, so let me drive you home, I’ll feel more at ease. Hearing me say that she seemed a bit worried too, so she agreed to give me a ride back, and I realized that her house was kinda on the way to where I live.
When I got to her house, I told her, “It’s late, go up and get some rest, you have to go to work in the morning!” She turned around and said to me, “Thank you for driving me back, be careful on your bike!” I looked up and watched her safely enter the house, I then engine car ready to leave, after entering the door she saw me still downstairs, she waved to me on the balcony and said bye ~ bye!
Later days, Jiaxie from time to time will take the customer to send back to the maintenance of the product to me to deal with, when I have time I will personally deal with, if it happens to be not available when I will be handed over to the following team members to deal with on behalf of. Because every time she can let her as scheduled delivery, plus the two of us also have quite a chat, nothing will also trip mouth, a few times to get along down, so her impression of me is not bad.
I had a half day of work this Saturday, and when the bell rang, I made my usual rounds of the workplace before leaving the office. Not far from the stop sign, I saw Cassie waiting for the bus, I rode over to her and asked, “You’re still waiting for the bus?” She nodded helplessly and said, “I’ve been waiting for almost thirty minutes and the bus hasn’t even come yet.”
I said, “I don’t know what I did in my past life to be so unfortunate! I just happen to be on your way every day… Get in the car!” She was so happy that she got in the car without even thinking about it and said to me, “Hey, you’ve burned a lot of incense in your past life to get a ride with me! You must have burned a lot of joss sticks in your past life to get a ride with me. Anyone else who wants to get a ride with me will have to fill out an application form and wait in line first.” After I pressed the gas pedal and got on the road, I deliberately teased her, “Then Xiao Lin Zi thanks Yin Niang Niang for her favor, a thousand years, a thousand years, a thousand years, a thousand years!”
After she heard me say that, she laughed happily in the back seat, and sometimes I think I kinda like hearing her silver bell laughter. On the way, she casually asked me: “Yichen, the afternoon you have to go there to play?” I thought for a moment and replied, “I’ll go fishing near the Shimen Cave.” She then asked, “I’ll go fishing.” She then asked, “Are you by yourself?” I said, “Yes! I often go alone.” With a cautious expression, she asked me, “So …… can I come along?” I asked her in surprise, “Do you…? Do you know how to fish?” She playfully poked her tongue out and said, “I don’t know how, but I can try, okay?” And didn’t you promise to take me out for a walk last time, you wouldn’t have forgotten, would you? I couldn’t resist her request. “I can’t stand you, okay! I’ll go back and get my fishing gear! I’ll go back and get my fishing gear first, I’ll come down at one o’clock to download you.”
After getting my gear, I went to buy a new helmet before waiting for her downstairs at her house, not realizing she was already waiting there! When she saw me, she smiled slightly and said, “Well, I’m right on time, aren’t I?” I told her, “Well, why do I think you look a little different than you did this morning?” She smiled at me mysteriously and said, “Guess!” I brought her a helmet and she looked at it and asked, “Did you get a new helmet?” I said, “Yeah! There are so many cops on the road, if you don’t wear one, you’ll get a ticket.”
She was embarrassed and said, “I’m sorry to break your bank, I’ll pay you how much.” I said, “No, maybe I’ll need it later anyway.” She said, “That’s right! Anyway, I’ll help you use it more often when I’m free, so it won’t collect dust.” I laughed and asked her, “What did you just say?” She laughed heartily in the back seat and said, “Nothing! Nothing!” We rode all the way to the direction of [Shimen] and stopped at Eighteen Wanggong to get meat browns and drinks.
It was a small, unknown fishing harbor, and I led her down the embankment, helped her prepare her simple fishing gear, and taught her how to fish . She was very excited and seriously fished, but no fish were hooked and she started to feel a bit bored! I told her my experience, “Fishing sometimes depends on luck, you don’t catch fish every time.” Putting down the rod in my hand I took a meat brown and handed it to her, I took one for myself and ate it she ate it with gusto and ate one more, I think she probably hadn’t even eaten her lunch yet like me! While she was eating I peeked in on her, what was so different about her today?
She was wearing a pink pave cotton jacket with a pair of popular dark blue ghost washed jeans… nothing different, right? Then I laughed out loud and said to her, “I finally figured it out! So it’s because you have makeup on today!” “Well ~ there really is a difference when a girl wears makeup, she looks prettier again.”
It was only then that she turned her head and beamed at me, “You’re just now realizing that you’re really too slow, no wonder you can’t chase after a girlfriend!” She suddenly asked me a question, “Yichen, how old are you?” I answered her, “I’m five years older than you, I’m kind of a bad old man.” She was surprised and said, “Five years older than me! I can’t quite tell, wow! You’re twenty-nine!” I made light of the situation by saying, “Yeah!”
She asked me, “Yat-sen, so have you ever had a girlfriend?” I answered her honestly, “I used to date one.” She asked another question that was quite poignant to me, “How long were you together, and why didn’t you stay together afterward?”
I told her, somewhat evasively, “I really don’t want to bring up this unpleasant memory, so let bygones be bygones.” She said curiously, “Why? I want to hear about it! Or do you have some unknown bad habits, quirks or something?” Is that why people can’t stand you and don’t stay with you anymore?
Ha~Ha~Ha! I was so rich in her imagination to get can not help but laugh out, I do not make some clarification, really will let her think I have what is wrong with it! I calmly said: I and my ex-girlfriend in is still a student period on the acquaintance, we are together unknowingly on the past five years …… just like other couples, also experienced when the military, quarrels, communication, separation, get together …… to learn to know each other. Originally thought we would be so natural to hold hands all the way down, there is nothing that can separate each other’s hearts I will early she identified as the only lover in my life, but fate has played a big joke on me!
I turned my head and looked at Cassie, who was sitting next to me, holding her knees and tilting her head as she watched and listened to me. I went on to say that two years ago, the day before I was to join this big company, she suddenly asked me to break up. The reason is that we have been separated for a long time, you also know that long-distance love is particularly hard to maintain, at that time I have not been working for a period of time, so she felt that she could not see the future with me at that time! In the past, we had argued over who should give up the familiar job and environment to accommodate each other when we really lived together in the future. Plus at that time, her side also happened to appear a can replace my man, he can do I can not do is in her time of need, can immediately give her a hug, give her courage and comfort, all kinds of factors, finally she chose to give up this five-year relationship.
I paused for a moment, trying to calm myself, and Cassie she urged me on, “And then? What happened after that?” I continued, “Later, when she proposed to break up, I tried to salvage the relationship, but my efforts still lost to her determination!” I still had the decency to hold back my sadness and comfort her, “It’s okay, I’m really fine! We are also kind of good together, wish you find happiness …….” In fact, this pile of words do not mean words I do not want to say at all, only in order to let her heart will not have too much bad guilt, I selfishly think that this is the last thing I can do for her.
After choosing to let go and let her find her so-called happiness, I keep telling myself that I have to be more mature, this small failure is really nothing compared to my long life ahead, I will definitely find a better and more suitable girl for me in the future.
Just after she left, but in the bottom of my heart left an indelible shadow, I seem to be difficult to step out to pursue other girls, she asked me curiously, “Why?” She asked me curiously, “Why?” I said, “I’m afraid of the heartbreaking pain that comes with breaking up again.” She nodded without knowing whether she understood or not.
Maybe it is based on the psychology of compensation! In the past two years, I have been desperately trying to perform at work, unconsciously trying to make up for my previous losses and mistakes, so I was able to be promoted to the position of team leader in just over a year, and I was able to make up for my previous losses and mistakes.
She heard a little touched asked, “You still seem to care about her look.” I quietly said, “After all, she is someone I have loved deeply, there is no way for me to say put it down all of a sudden.” I said to her, “This is the first time I’ve ever talked about this past to someone else!”
She looked at me for a while, and said with a deeper meaning, “It’s very sandy on the beach, isn’t it?” I realized that the cold feeling in the corner of my eyes was actually my tears! I hurriedly wiped them away and said in a strong voice, “But, fortunately, finally everything is over.” In the bottom of my heart, I was surprised at how I could still shed tears for her, who had been broken up for two years. She said, “I can’t tell, you’re quite sentimental too.”
I asked her rhetorically, “Cassie, you’re not too young, you should have had a boyfriend too, right? I’ve talked about mine, you should talk about yours too!” She looked away and said, “Wow! The rod has been sitting for so long without changing the bait, it should be eaten by the fish!” I said, “Hey! Hey! Hey! Don’t try to play dumb! Tell me the truth.”
She beamed, “Oh, my previous boyfriend was in the same company as me, and we only dated for a year before we broke up.” I asked her curiously, “Why did you break up after only one year?” Her eyes sparkled with excitement and she said, “He was not only handsome, but also very eloquent, and I thought at first glance that he was the ideal guy for me.” So when he asked me to be his girlfriend, I agreed without hesitation.
He said he would love me forever and promised me to start a family ……… together in the future. He asked me to lend him some money to work on our future, and at that time I was so immersed in the beautiful vision of the future he had promised me that I trusted him so completely and believed everything he said to me.
Unexpectedly, in the end, or around the colleague can not see past before secretly told me that he was dating me, still and other girls in the company in the relationship, I realized that I have been in the dark by him, like a fool.
I’m angry at myself for being so stupid! So stupid! I easily believed in the sweet words he said and was cheated so badly! In the end, I made up my mind to break up with him, left my old company and changed to a new job.
I remembered that Cassie had only been at the company for less than a month, and I asked her in surprise, “So you didn’t just break up with him?” She nodded and said, “Uh-huh! Today is the 19th day.” I asked her with concern, “So are you still sad now?” She smacked me on the forehead, “Idiot! Of course I am! It’s still my first love.” “Sometimes when I think of bits and pieces of my past, I still hide under the quilt at night and secretly cry!”
At this time we left aside the fishing rod, as if hit a big fish, the rod head desperately pointing non-stop, she hurriedly picked up the happy shouting: “How to do! What should we do?” I reminded her to reel in the line quickly, but it turned out to be a palm-sized stinky belly fish, probably a school of fish that had landed! Later on, we caught a lot of fish one after another, but we put them all back to the sea. We fished until 7:00 p.m., when it was dark, we packed up the fishing gear and rode back to the direction of our journey, and on the way, I talked with her about our interests and the company’s business until we arrived at the downstairs of her house.
I asked her, “Would it be boring to go out with an old man like me?” She shook her head and said, “No, it won’t be! This is the first time I’ve ever fished and caught a fish, it’s quite a novelty. “I could tell she was tired from the day’s fun: “You’re tired, go up and get some rest, see you next week!” Before she went upstairs, she waved her hand to me with a smile and said goodbye.
Since the last time we confided in each other’s secrets, Jiaxie and I have become good friends from coworkers. When she gets off work, she will wait at the door “just in time” for me to drive her back, and I asked her a little bit puzzled: “How come you don’t take the bus when you get off work lately?” She was embarrassed and said, “You found out! I think it’s faster and more comfortable to give you a ride!” I jokingly said, “It’s rare for a pretty girl to give me so much face, I can’t afford not to drive you home every day.” She said happily, “Yichen, I knew you were the best in the company.” I told her, “Why do I suddenly have the feeling of being cheated?” She laughed even harder and said, “You can’t back out! It’s Piggy who’s backing out!”
She asked me, “Yat-sen, are you going out this week?” I asked her, “I don’t know yet. What are you doing?” She said, “Nothing! I just want to say if you’re going out, remember to call me!” I asked her, “How am I supposed to find you in case I do? Do you want me to yell at you downstairs?” She took out a pen and paper from her purse, copied down her cell phone number and stuffed it into my jacket pocket. After arriving at her home, she was afraid that I would forget and urged me again, “Remember!”
It was after eight o’clock when I got up on Sunday, and looking outside it was warm and the sun wasn’t too bad, perfect weather for a walk, and the locomotive was cleaned and given a coat of wax. The whole unit was shiny silver and looked like brand new. I changed into a light and handsome outfit, beige open big V-neck fitted shirt fir, black open fitted pants, black short uniform leather shoes. I arrived at Jiaxie’s downstairs and dialed my cell phone to her, “Hey ~ Jiaxie ah! Are you going out?” Cassie’s lazy voice came from the other end of the cell phone, “Uh, who is it?” I said, “It’s me, Yichen! I’m downstairs at your house, I’m going to Freshwater, do you want to go?” As if she was still awake, she said, “Oh, I’m still trying to sleep……. What Danshui?” After three seconds I heard the sound of pinging and banging on the other end of the phone, and Jiaxi said, as if she was rushing to work, “Wait for me for fifteen minutes! And hung up in a hurry.”
After a while, the iron door downstairs opened and I couldn’t help but let out a sigh of admiration from my throat ~ wow! Today, she was wearing a pink slashed sleeveless blouse with small white dots, and the neckline was rolled in white lace, specially revealing half of her snow-white shoulders and a sheer shoulder strap of her underwear. With a rich spring weather apple green split skirt and a pair of camel-colored boots, she has a head of reddish-brown shaped pretty short hair, her face slightly powdered, playing a light blush, small cute lips also specially on a layer of water tender water tender bright pink lipstick, see people want to steal a bite!
And it seemed rare for her to see me in such a dapper and casual outfit, and she looked dumbfounded for a moment! I said to her from the bottom of my heart, “You’re dressed so beautifully today, you look gorgeous!” She blushed and said, “No, I don’t think so! You look handsome too!” I said jokingly, “Then we both look good together today!” She spat out her tongue and made a cute face, “Who wants to match with you?”
I kindly reminded her, “Cassie, you’ll be exposed when you get on and off the bike in your skirt! Do you want to change into a pair of pants?” She replied, “But this is a better way to wear it, or I’ll get a woolen jacket and tie it around my waist to cover it up, so it won’t be exposed!”
After getting on the motorcycle, we chatted about recent events in the company on the way, so it felt like we arrived at Danshui city center in a flash. After parking the car, we walked into the lively old streets of Danshui, because it happened to be a holiday, traffic and people jammed the old streets are full, I walked in front, so that she can hide behind me, so as not to be pushed by the crowd and get hurt.
But several times her slightly thin frame was swept away by the crowd! Then she voluntarily took her little hand in my big one and said, “That way you’ll know if I’m missing.”
Later, I felt her little hands keep sweating, and I turned my head to see that her face had been red, and I asked her, “What’s wrong? Not feeling well? Your little hands keep sweating?” She was embarrassed and said, “I’m sorry! My hands are very sweaty, I’ll just wipe them off.” She was embarrassed and tried to draw it back. I told her, “So it’s okay! I thought you were nervous.” When I heard me say that, I felt her little hand tremble a little, and I thought it was just me, so I didn’t take it to heart.
I took her one by one art store to go in and shop, she looked curiously at every kind of artwork that she had never seen before, such as: modeling feather pen, star sand bottle, incense holder, retro bamboo products, childhood toys, various kinds of strange stones made of necklaces, rings, shell handmade products, ceramic flute, modeling lighters, small ornaments of fortune cats, trendy cell phone charms, souvenirs of freshwater… …… She is very interested in all of them.
Sometimes she gets excited and pulls me to look at fun little things, “Look! Look! A piggy that can kiss, it’s so cute!” Looking at her happy appearance, I don’t feel that she is already twenty-four years old is a bit childish, after contacting so many different kinds of people in society, I rather feel that this is the innocence that a girl should keep!
Unconsciously also arrived at noon time, shopping a morning, we are also hungry, I took her to eat to the fresh water must have eaten snacks: A to, fish ball soup she ate the nose are sweating and also called out: “good hot! It’s so hot!” I laughed and told her, “Idiot, you have to eat this kind of food while it’s hot, it won’t taste good when it’s cold.” Seeing her eat, even her cheeks turned red! I myself felt a bit too hot to eat!
I dragged her to eat the cool ice cream “Tianba Wang ice cream” because an ice cream is 50 centimeters high, usually folded in half with a cup, the boss lady kindly folded it into two halves, she mistakenly thought that we were a couple, and when she handed it to us, she also said in non-rotating Taiwanese Mandarin, “That’s right! One person “thick” half, the relationship will not fall apart.” I deliberately followed her example and said, “That’s right! That’s right! You’re a good businesswoman, ma’am! Thank you!” The boss’s wife was embarrassed and said, “No, I’m not! Come back when you have time.”
Beside me, Cassie turned red with shame, “What are you talking nonsense with the boss’s wife?” I teased her as I ate my ice cream, “Nothing! She said, “No! She said if you eat half of the ice cream, the relationship won’t break up.” She knew I was teasing her on purpose, she took the ice cream and walked over to a puppy and said, “White, here! This is for you to eat.” I hurriedly stopped her, “Hey! What are you doing?” She feigned innocence and said, “You said that if one person eats half of it, the relationship won’t fall apart!” I made a gesture to chase after her and said, “I’m not a dog.” She hurriedly ran away, “Do not ah! I was joking ah” leaving the innocent dog looking at the back of our chase, do not know what we are doing it?
Later, she seemed to fancy a string of wind chimes strung with shells and wanted to buy it back as a souvenir. I thought her vision was quite similar to mine because I also had a string of these wind chimes in my room, and I jokingly asked her, “Wind chimes! Do you like it? The team leader bought it for you!” She took out her wallet to pay for it herself, and said with a smile, “No, I’ll pay for it myself.” I told her, “Then I’ll take you to another place that sells them cheaper.” She mindlessly asked me, “Wow! You know Freshwater so well, have you been here often before?”
I hesitated, but told her honestly, “I used to bring my ex-girlfriends here all the time.” At this point the atmosphere suddenly became awkward! She lowered her head and bit her lip as she blamed herself, “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to bring it up.” I used a smile to diffuse her remorse, “It’s okay, I won’t take it to heart! I won’t take it to heart! The past is the past, people always have to move on, don’t they?” Only then did she raise her head and give me a smile of approval, “Uh-huh!”
After buying her souvenirs, I asked her, “Have you never been to Danshui?” She shook her head and said, “No. Every time I asked my ex-boyfriend to take me out, he said he was too tired to do so. She shook her head and said, “No, every time I asked my ex-boyfriend to take me out for a walk, he would always push me back saying that he is not available, he said that he is usually tired from work and he wants to have a good rest on vacation.” I said to her, “It’s a rare day, so you’d better have a good time, if you’re not too tired!” As soon as we talked about playing, her spirit came up, and she desperately shook her head and said, “I won’t be tired!”
I told her, “Well, let’s go ahead and get in line for boat tickets.” She asked me, a little happily and a little uncertainly, “Are we going on a boat?” I answered her, “Yeah! We’ll take a boat to Fisherman’s Wharf and back later, it’ll be something you’ll never forget!” Her eyes sparkled with excitement and she said, “Really? I haven’t been on a boat since I was a kid!”
After we boarded the yacht, I pulled her to stand behind the post at the back of the gangway. Once on board, she said happily, “This is the first time I’ve ever been on a boat in my life, it’s so much fun!” I pointed to the group of people standing in front of us, and said to her with a deeper meaning, “Look at those young people standing by the railing and riding the waves, they look very handsome, don’t they? Watch out, it’s going to be even more fun later!”
She couldn’t understand what I was referring to? Looking at me with a puzzled, unintelligent expression. I used my index finger to compare mouth: “Shhh!” Laughing, signaling to her quietly watch, sure enough, not long after, as I thought, riding the wind, a big wave splashed on the side of the boat, standing in front of us the group of people were splashed by the big wave pants, shoes are wet, as if by a whole bucket of water splashed to the same, a lousy look, straight cursed: “Oh! ………” angry can not take care of the temperament, even unpleasant swear words have come out, a group of people on the side of dry exposĂ© into the cabin.
We didn’t get splashed because we were hiding in the dead center behind the pillar. When Cassie saw this scene, she wanted to laugh but didn’t dare to laugh out in front of them, she covered her mouth and laughed until her tears spilled out. I drew a piece of Kleenex and handed it to her, “See, I didn’t lie to you!” She mallet me, “Why are you so mean? You didn’t even tell them when you knew it was going to happen!” My next reply made her freshly wiped away eyeballs flow out again, and I said with a straight face, “Come on! No one told me last time either!”
She laughed even harder, another wave hit, she could not stand on her feet flung herself into my arms my natural reaction reached out and hugged her tightly, she slowly raised her head, four eyes met for a moment, this is probably the first time we looked at each other at such a close distance, she staggered for a moment, her small lips slightly open, her face gradually rose a flushed red I asked her several times: “Did you how? ” She just woke up don’t look away, gently ruffled a little hair, as if to avoid something said, “No! Thanks!”
After helping her off the yacht, I told her, “This is one of the three scenic spots of Fisherman’s Wharf, the floating pier, which will sway with the tide!” As if she had forgotten what had just happened, she said happily, “Really! There are little fish swimming next to it.” I pointed to the row of wooden paths next to her and said, “This is also one of the three scenic spots, you can see the Guanyin Mountain on the other side and the Danshui River in front of you, let’s go up there and walk around!” She nodded and said, “Sure!”
There were people everywhere on the steps of the wooden trestle, and it was hard to find an empty seat to sit down and enjoy the scenery I told her, “The opposite bank of the river is known as the left bank of Taipei – Bali Waterfront, it’s also very fun!” She turned her head and asked me, “So …… when are you going to take me there?” I pinched her little nose and said with a smile, “Miss, we haven’t even finished here yet, and you’re already thinking of the next time you want to go there to play?” She spat out her tongue in embarrassment and said, “Then next time you want to go, remember to look for me!”
We walked to the white bridge, which is also one of the three scenic spots, and I told her, “This bridge is also called the Lovers’ Bridge.” It’s one of the best places for couples to go out and see the dusk view of Danshui. Every year on Valentine’s Day, there are events held here, and it’s very lively!
We leaned on the railing and looked at the dusk scenery, the red sunset gradually fell towards the sea level, the sea dyed into a dazzling gold, a few colorful clouds in the sky chasing each other, a few seabirds are also flying low on the surface of the sea for food, far away there are anglers fishing, non-stop sailing in the blue highway yachts, then in the surface of the sea to cut down the two white traces of water… ……….
She turned her head and asked me, “Yichen, can I ask you a question, you can’t get mad!” She asked carefully, “You and your girlfriend broke up two years ago, why haven’t you gotten another girlfriend?” I smiled and said to her, “I thought it was some kind of question, I’m not going to get mad!” I put on a serious tone and said, “Actually, it’s not that I don’t want to have another one, it’s just that right now, I’m not forcing myself into relationships. If I’m lucky enough to meet a girl who has the same interests as I do, and if she thinks that I’m not bad, then we can be friends for a while, and if we feel that we can match each other’s personalities and habits, we can then go further and date each other. After all, I’m not getting any younger, and I don’t have a few more years to waste in my life.”
She nodded and said, “So that’s what it’s like! No wonder you couldn’t get a girlfriend for two years!” I cocked my head at her, “Hey! Miss, are you being sarcastic when you say that?”
I asked her, “Then why don’t you try to find another one? I see that many unmarried guys in the company are interested in you, and it seems that some of them are talking about chasing after you.” She smiled bitterly and said, “You don’t know that I was cheated on so badly last time. She laughed bitterly and said, “You don’t know that I was cheated on so badly last time, I don’t have the guts to go out and get another one, not to mention that I just broke up with my ex-boyfriend not long ago, and I’m still in the process of healing.”
I asked her again, “So today is the first day since we broke up?” She counted for a while before saying, “It seems to be the twenty-seventh day, so fast, I don’t realize it’s almost a month.” I took her hand and said, “It’s starting to get dark, we should go back to the boat.” She said, “Good! It seems like it’s starting to get cold too.” I reminded her, “It’s time to put your jacket on too, in case you catch a cold.”
When I held her hand and walked across the Lover’s Bridge, I lied to her and said, “There’s a legend here that as long as couples can hold hands and walk across the Lover’s Bridge, they’ll be together for life.” When she heard me say this, she was embarrassed and wanted to pull her hand away from me before I told her, “I lied to you!” She was disappointed and said, “Wow.”
Back at the head of the freshwater ferry, I told her, “Come on, let’s go celebrate!” She asked me in confusion, “To celebrate what?” I said, “To celebrate the fact that it’s been twenty-seven days since your breakup!” She threw up her pink fist in a gesture to chase after me and said, “Lin Yichen, you’re so annoying, why are you bringing this up again!”
Later, along the way, she excitedly pulled me to play set circle, we played a hundred although not set to half, but the boss to see in her so cute and beautiful, especially sent a small ceramic doll of tea dog to her. She baby in the hand, happy half a day! A little while later she pulled me to shoot air guns, I was lucky to help her hit a PUCCA doll, she was also happy and hugged, straight said she loved it!
We just sat on the embankment next to the head of the ferry, eating grilled squid, octopus dumplings, fried shrimp balls, and drinking Granny’s sour plum soup ………. Looking up at the view of the low night, covered with dotted stars, the tide lapping regularly against the shore in waves, stirring up white foam, the crowds on the street had gradually dispersed, leaving only couples clinging to each other in twos and threes.
Not far away, an open-air café was playing a song in Mandarin, and hearing it she and I naturally stopped talking and got quiet.
Lyrics: The distant bells echo in the rain, we hold hands under the eaves and listen to the fantasy of the church that the wedding was held to bless us all the way from the mud to the beauty of the scenery, used to find the courage in each other’s eyes tired of powerlessness will always want to kiss you in order to forget the love of the road hard you and I agreed to the sad past events do not fall into the! A also promised to never let each other worry about to be happy with themselves to take care of their own even if one day a person lonely you and I agreed to a quarrel soon to call a halt, also said no secrets to each other transparent I will love you well, silly love you, do not care about fair or unfair You and I agreed to a quarrel soon to call a halt, but also said no secrets each other very transparent I will love you well, silly love you, do not care about fair or unfair.
Listening to listen I noticed that Jia Xi’s hands were slightly trembling, I thought she was cold, but I realized that she had her head down and biting her lip, holding back the choking in trembling, the whetstone w in her eyes was like a pearl, one by one rolled down her perfect melon-skinned face, and based on a man’s instincts to protect a woman, I gently wrapped one hand around her shoulder, letting her rely on my broad shoulders to softly sob.
I don’t know how long it took before she looked up and choked, “I’m sorry!” I took the Kleenex and handed it to her with a smile, “It’s okay! Wipe it off!” As she wiped, she asked me, “I must look really ugly when I cry, right?” I deliberately teased her, “No, it doesn’t! It seems to look much better than usual.” She couldn’t help but laugh out loud and threw the wiped tissue at me, “You’re annoying! That’s a comforting thing to say!” Only then did I say in all seriousness, “Seeing a beautiful woman like you crying actually hurts my heart!” She sniffled and said, “I’m sorry! Every time I hear that song I get extra emotional.”
She seriously told me, “There is a true story behind this song, there was a couple who loved each other very much, they had planned to get married, but on the eve of the wedding there was the 921 earthquake, the girl unfortunately lost her life, the boy never believed this fact, he still loved the girl deeply, he married the girl home by way of a plagiarized marriage, this song was their favorite song and he often played it at home for his beloved wife.”
She then added, “When I hear this song now, I think of the past and I can’t help it….” I patted her shoulder to give her comfort, “I know, I can understand your state of mind, I used to be like that too.” The tears that she had just stopped could not help but spill out again. I jokingly told her, “If you keep crying like this, I won’t dare to bring you out to play anymore.” She stopped crying and asked me curiously, “Why?”
I intentionally want to make her happy, said: “You see, how many people on the road today are looking at me with envy, because I bring a beautiful, temperament, figure and good beauty, I have more face ah!” I went on to say, “Look at you now crying like an ugly monster, in the future when I take you out again, the people on the road will look at me with contempt, they will laugh at me for even daring to bring such an ugly woman out to scare people, then I have no face ah!” She whacked me with anger and amusement, “I don’t care! I just want to follow! I want you to be laughed at by everyone!”
Later, when it was time to get on the locomotive I reminded her to be careful not to expose it without a jacket covering it.” She leaned into my ear and asked me, “In case I accidentally exposed to be seen by others, will you be jealous ah?” I naturally said, “I’m not your boyfriend, why would I be jealous!” Sitting in the backseat, she sounded a bit lost, “Wow~” I wondered if I had said something wrong. We are five years apart, it is unlikely that she would like me with such a big age difference!
In the next few weeks of vacation, I took her to visit the old ceramic street in Yingge, and the Temple of the Goddess of Mercy in Sanxia. I liked to go out with Jiaxie, because in addition to playing around along the way, I could sometimes talk to each other about some private matters that I couldn’t talk about in the office. In fact, I didn’t realize that a familiar feeling was gradually reviving in the bottom of my heart ………. However, recently in the company has been circulating rumors that Jiaxi and I are very close gossip, and even rumors that Jiaxi and I have a leg, so I take special care of her ………. There are also people who want to chase Jiaxie running to ask me: “Are Jiaxie and I boyfriend and girlfriend? Do you want to chase Jiaxi? ………” Others ran to ask Jiaxi, “Do you like Yi Chen? If not why do you let Yat Chen drive you home every day? ………….” All of this has created an ambiguous chemical change in the otherwise innocent relationship between Jiaxi and me! In order to avoid suspicion, in the last month, I have gradually avoided the chance of meeting or being together with JiaXi, and sometimes when I accidentally bumped into her in the company, we just nodded our heads, and were no longer as warm as usual.
I ran into her in the elevator this day, and since it was just the two of us, the atmosphere was a little awkward, and she grudgingly squeezed out, “What a coincidence!” Two words. I could only reply, “Yeah!” I peeked at her, she looked as if she had lost some weight compared to a while ago, “Why isn’t she taking care of herself?” I thought to myself.
With an expression as if she had made up her mind, she asked me, “Why haven’t I seen you after work lately?” I answered her with a bit of weakness, “Because I’ve been in a hurry recently, so I’ve been staying late at night to work overtime.” In fact, the company has not been in a hurry at all lately, but I voluntarily stayed behind to work overtime, and I intentionally staggered the time when I got off work with Jiaxie.
She asked me again, “Then why did you take off half a day on Saturday and not come to work?” I lied to her and said, “Because I’m too tired to work overtime, so I take Saturdays off to rest at home.” She looked a little hurt and whispered, “Did I do anything wrong? Why are you avoiding me?” Then she reddened her eyes, lowered her head and quickly walked out of the elevator. Ever since I met Cassie in the elevator in the morning, I couldn’t focus on my work at all, and my work kept going out of control!
It was hard to make it to lunchtime, I took my badge and went to the top floor, since my relationship with Cassie had changed, I didn’t go to the restaurant in the basement to eat according to the company’s rules, I sat on the big hose and ate my bento with my head down, basking in the warm sun and wind.
Later, I seemed to notice that someone was following me, I thought it was Wu from the warehouse, or Xiao Chen, Ah Long, Xiao Zheng and the others, because only they knew this place, sometimes we would eat and chat here at noon, I turned my head to see who it was, it was better if I didn’t look, but when I did, I almost dropped the bento in my hand! I was so surprised I couldn’t eat and asked her, “How do you know about this place?” Gyasi calmly said, “I went to ask Xiao Chen, and Xiao Chen told me.”
As if she had summoned up enough courage, she asked me, “Yat-sen, I’d like to know why you’ve been avoiding me lately?” I considered for a while, thinking about how to explain to her. I replied to her, “Jiaxie, you should know that rumors have been spreading around the company lately that we’ve been getting close, right?” She listened attentively and said, “Uh~ And?” I said helplessly, “Some people told me that they want to chase you, so I think I should stay away from you.” She asked me questionably, “Why?” I honestly said what was in my heart, “Actually, some of the people in the company are good, I think you should get in touch with more people, it would be better for you!” She laughed out bitterly, “You think that would be better for me? Is that your reason for avoiding me?”
She looked at me silently, a look of hurt on her face. Her eyes were filled with brimming tears, and I could see that she was struggling to restrain herself! I was beginning to feel like what I had just said was a sharp blade piercing her tender heart!
She asked me in a choked tone, “Yat Chen, then I want to know what kind of feeling you have for me?” As soon as she finished speaking, a crystal-full tear, trailing a long trail of tears, slipped quietly down her face, and at this moment, it was as if I could hear the sound of the tear falling to the ground, a kind of heart-breaking sound.
I thought seriously about how I could not hurt her again, and after some time I said, “I can’t deny that I have a good feeling about you, I like your innocence, simplicity, kindness, and lack of pretense.” It’s because you’re so nice that it’s even more important for me not to be selfish and think only of myself.
I convinced myself in my mind for a long time before I forced myself to say this, “I’m sure there are people who would be a better fit for you, and you deserve the chance to choose someone better and more suitable.” As soon as I finished my words, she cried harder instead! As she cried, she cursed me, “Idiot! Idiot! You big idiot!”
“All you do is think of others and think of me, why don’t you have time to think more about yourself?” “You say there are people who would be better for me, how do you know what kind of person I like?” She seriously choked to tell: I like is rich sense of justice and enthusiasm, treat women carefully and tender and considerate, for people funny and honest and kind, more importantly, he also has to be empathetic man.
She asked angrily, “So tell me, which boy in the company is the best for me? Tell me!” I thought to myself, “Aren’t most of the companies full of hookers, power strugglers, cold-blooded, black-hearted plus ursine cats and dogs? Do we have such people in our company? Why don’t I know her? But having known her for a while, this is the first time I’ve seen her lose her temper and look so determined. However, I don’t feel angry now! Honestly, I kinda like the way she loses her temper, it’s kinda funny and cute.
She spoke sadly, “Why should you care about what other people think when you simply like someone?” “Just like you have a crush on me, do you just care about a few words from others and you hide away.” As if she was venting her emotions, she cried while speaking in a stream of words, “I don’t even care that you’re a bad old man! Don’t care that you’re not very handsome! Don’t care that you’re slow-witted! I don’t care if you have a car! I don’t care if you have a house! I don’t care that you get 30,000 dollars a month! I only care about “whether you treat me well or not, whether I am happy or not! Do you understand?”
What old man? Not very handsome? Nervous? So that’s what I was like in her mind! I cursed in my heart, “I’m treating her pretty well, even better than my old girlfriend!” I didn’t even dislike her? She even smacked me for being old in return! Not handsome! And slow to react ……… I’m miles away!
Wait a minute! Wait a minute! It suddenly struck me that those words didn’t read as if she was disliking me! Instead, it’s rather like ……… Geez! I realized that Cassie didn’t have no feelings for me at all! I’m such a big dummy! I thought she was just treating me like a normal friend.
After a while, she also seemed to realize that she seemed to have said something she shouldn’t have said! Originally cried to a little white face, gradually rose two red halos, frowning deeply locked, pathetic appearance. She seemed to be at a loss for words, her head was lowered and she was biting her lower lip lightly, her two hands were interlocked and clenched, she must have been very annoyed with her impulsiveness just now!
I slowly walked to JiaXi and said to her, “Do you still remember that day when everyone said that I am not very active and positive in my relationship, in fact, I don’t want to force others, I am very afraid that when I take the initiative, in case we can’t even be friends or coworkers at that time, unless I am sure that the other party is the same as me in the same heart.” She seemed to still not understand the meaning of my words, and slowly raised her head to look at me with a puzzled expression? I obediently gently hugged her and kissed her lips, she opened her eyes wide in disbelief of what was in front of her!
After a while she also reached out and hugged me, her eyes squeezed out a few tears shyly responded to my kiss, her salty tears in her mouth, I think it is now for the joy and fall it! My forehead lightly touched her forehead and said to her, “From now on, you can’t cry anymore! It hurts me to watch!” With a shy look, she sniffled and nodded with a smile, “Uh-huh!” The metal door next to us was suddenly opened, causing us both to jump! The two of us separated in a hurry.
It turned out to be Xiao Chen, Xiao Wu, Ah Long, Xiao Zheng, Xiao Hui and Xiao Qi. Xiao Wu yelled, “Five hundred dollars per person, and a little bit for each of them, bring it, bring it!” The others reluctantly took out their money and gave it to Wu, “Take it, take it!” I realized that they had been hiding outside and watching, and had taken my affair with Jiaxi as a bet! They were still talking one by one ……….
Xiao Qi deliberately flirted and said, “Jia Xi, I was wrong about you, you don’t have any girl’s reserve!” Xiao Zheng also chimed in and said, “That’s right! We all lost 500 dollars, it’s no fun! It’s no fun!” Xiaohui said to Xiao Chen, following Jiaxi’s example, “I don’t care that you’re a dead old man, I don’t care that you’re short, I don’t care that you don’t last, I only care that you treat me well!” Xiao Chen hastily sterilized, “Wife, everyone is here, don’t talk nonsense and ruin my reputation for a lifetime.” This led to a burst of sarcastic laughter from everyone, only Cassie and I were crying and laughing, unable to speak. I was also embarrassed and said, “Hey! It’s not enough for you guys to eavesdrop, but you’re still placing bets in the open!” Wu said, “I told you that I can read people’s eyes, but you don’t believe me.” The others said to Xiao Wu, “The winner has to pay for it!” Wu said, “I don’t think I’ll be needing a red packet anytime soon, so I’d better keep it.” Ah Long also said, “I think so too, or we should start a meeting first.” They were clearly flirting with Cassie and me!
Cassie’s face was getting redder and redder with shame, she said with a bit of shyness and a bit of amusement, “You guys are annoying!” Later, when they felt they had had enough, they said, “That’s enough of the drama, we should go to bed, we have to go to work in the afternoon!” Before they left, they said sincerely, “Yichen and Jiaxie, go for it!” I jokingly said to Jiaxie, “I think the whole company will know about us tomorrow.” She was a bit nervous and asked me, “What should we do then?” I asked her, “Are you scared?” She looked at me with a smile and shook her head firmly, and held each other’s hands tighter.
After that day, I drove Jiaxi to and from work as usual, and we went out together on holidays. Whenever I drove her downstairs to her house, she always pretended to look around before going upstairs. When she was sure there were no passersby, she quickly kissed me on the cheek and whispered in my ear, “I love you!” Only then did she run up the stairs happily with a red face.
Sometimes I would play a prank on her, when she turned to run upstairs, I would pull her down, hold her little face with both hands, and kiss her deeply from her soft lips, deliberately kissing her for a long time without letting go, and she was so nervous because she was afraid of being seen by the neighbors that she kept trying to break away, and after kissing her she would use her little pink fists to K-me, but I knew that she loved this feeling: ‘a feeling of being deeply loved!’
Five months have passed since I became boyfriend and girlfriend with Kathy, and this Saturday is an important day for me, I plan to give her a surprise! On Saturday, after I got off work at 12:00 noon, I drove her to the fishing market in Zhuhai Fishing Harbor to buy seafood. She followed me all the way there, it was her first time here, and she watched curiously as I questioned and bargained with the owner of the stalls. She asked me, “Are you crazy? What are you doing coming all the way out here to buy food?” I smiled and told her, “You’ll find out later!” After I finished shopping, I drove her home and told her, “Meet me downstairs at 5pm sharp!” She was still confused, wondering what was going on, so mysterious?
Once I was pretty much ready, I was on time to drive her. She thought I was driving her out, but it turned out she was wearing a purple knit sleeveless turtleneck top and a short beige dress skirt with a pair of white sandals tonight. Later she realized that she was going to my house! It was the first time she had ever been to my house, and I led her up to the fifth floor and opened the door, Cassie, and she asked me skeptically, “You live here?” I said, “Yeah! My parents live downstairs and I currently live upstairs by myself.” She said enviously, “You’re so free! You don’t even have to worry about your parents.” I greeted her and made her feel free to sit down, and I went to get ready for my business.
Later, she wandered to the back and realized that I was preparing dinner, and as if she had discovered a new continent, she said, “Yichen, you know how to cook?” I answered her, “Yes! I’m 29 years old, don’t you know how?” She spat out her tongue and said, “My mom cooks at my house, I don’t know how to cook!” I looked like I was going to faint, “Oh my God!” Instead, she was laughing her ass off!
After a while, she helped to bring all the dishes on the table and turned off the fluorescent lights, leaving a room of darkness, and then I lit three more beautiful scented candles and placed them on the table, pressed the button for Play, and the piano’s lilting melody softly echoed in the dimly lit room, and I asked her, “Is the atmosphere okay like this?” She nodded with emotion in her eyes. She tried to catch my words and asked me, “I don’t usually see you so romantic, tell me what day is today?” I just didn’t fall for it and said, “Shhh! You’ll find out later.”
I introduced her to the dishes one by one: “This is steamed grouper, stir-fried prawns with soy sauce, bean-crusted cod, stir-fried papaya seeds, anchovy and seaweed soup, three cups of soy sauce, and stir-fried crab legs.” This is the first time I’ve ever invited a girl to dinner with my own cooking, and the food is even better than what you’d get at a restaurant! She said shyly, “Uh-huh, but you’ve spent a lot on this meal, haven’t you?” I smiled and said, “It’s okay! I hope you’re happy!”
She said, “It was very touching, the first time a boy made me a meal with his own hands.” I said, “Okay! Hurry up and start! The food won’t be good if it gets cold.” After dinner, I got up and told her, “There’s one last dessert!” She looked at me with a surprised expression of disbelief, “You know how to make dessert?” I brought out from the back a cute little cake with a candle stuck in it moving slowly to a familiar melody …………….
She finally realized what day today is, today is her twenty-fifth birthday, she covered her mouth and opened her eyes wide, she couldn’t believe what I did for her today. I deliberately said, “The cake was bought, not made by me, don’t be too touched!” Her eyes were already red, and she could no longer hold back the two lines of tears that slid down her face. With red eyes, she said, “Why did you make it so touching that I was moved to tears?” I pinched her little nose and wiped away her tears, “Idiot! Who asked you to be my girlfriend, I don’t care about you, who do I care about?”
As soon as I finished speaking, I got another eye mark that I had just wiped away. I mischievously scooped up some cream and smeared it on her little nose, and she busted out laughing and playing with it, taking some cream and smearing it on my mouth I licked it and said, “It’s kinda fresh and tasty!” I said, “You have to eat it too!” Regardless of her protests on the sealed her mouth, a kiss, suddenly the atmosphere seems a little strange, each other can not let go of each other around the quiet to only left each other’s heavy breathing.
I think what would happen next was something that we, already adults, had in the back of our minds I whispered in Cassie’s ear in a slightly magnetic voice, “Want to stop?” She bowed her head and blushed, after a moment she slowly shook her head.
We kissed deeply, through the clothes my hands covered her soft peaks, felt her in my arms trembled slightly, while kissing, I carefully removed her blouse, and a small skirt, in front of her body is only a set of light blue embroidered bra and small panties, this is the first time in all the time I have known her to see her exquisite body, she was raw and hard work to undo the buttons on my blouse and the belt on my pants, and she and I were down to our last line of defense.
I leaned against her forehead, looked into her watery eyes and told her, “Cassie, you are so beautiful at this moment!” She wrapped her hands around my waist and smiled shyly trying to escape my hot eyes My face slowly moved closer to her and teased her sexy, watery little lips with the tip of my flexible tongue, after a while she also stuck out her tiny tongue and kissed me like I did.
We leaned in close, and I reached behind her and undid the clasp of her bra, which fell to the floor with a loud thud, and she unconsciously hugged me tighter, and the actual body heat coming through each other’s flesh warmed both of their hearts even more, the
I felt her shivering slightly in my arms and I asked her in my ear, “Are you nervous?” She nodded shyly and said, “Uh-huh!” I took her hand and placed it on my firm chest, also letting her feel my rapid heartbeat as I said, “Actually, I’m just like you!” She laughed out softly!
My large hand, too, like an explorer exploring civilization in a time of barbarism, climbed all the way up from her flat belly to look out over a rising hill, then explored down the inside of the snowy ridge on the right until it ended, and then up the inside of the ridge on the left.
I purposely used two fingers like human feet to walk up along her snow-white legs, causing Cassie she felt tickled and funny and covered her mouth and laughed out! I used my index finger than my mouth, “Shhh!” To tell her to be quiet and enjoy this.
My explorer, finally reached the peach blossom at the junction of two ridges, the dream of the peach blossom has long been a wet piece of printed on the powder blue mountain wall, when I was about to follow the example of the “Fool’s Gold” will be removed from the powder blue mountain wall, Cassie reached out to stop me.
Cassie said nervously “Tatsu, wait a minute! I think there’s something I have to confess to you.” I asked her curiously, “What is it?” She watched my reaction and said, “You know I used to have a boyfriend!” In my mind I probably already guessed what she was going to say next, but I played dumb to hear what she would say? I asked her, “Uh-huh! And?”
She couldn’t help but bite her lower lip lightly and said, “Because I loved him so much at the time, so…so ……” She looked away, her hands tightly protecting her breasts as if in defense of herself, and I could see that she was struggling internally as to whether or not to say it to me?
In the end, as if she had summoned up her greatest courage, she spoke more and more in a small voice, and painstakingly said, “So …… I…I…I’m not a virgin anymore!” These were a few words that were difficult for a girl to say.
When she realized that I didn’t respond after a long time, her big tears fell and she whispered, “I’m sorry!” In my heart, I secretly hurt, “Her little head again do not know where to think?” I pulled her cute little face over to make her look at me, letting her know that I was now talking to her very seriously. I smiled and asked her, “Cassie, will you stop loving me because I’m no longer a virgin?” With red eyes and tears streaming down her face, she shook her head and told me seriously, “I won’t!” I put my heart in the right place and said, “You can forget about my past, so who am I to pursue your past?” “Little fool, if I still care about such things, it means I’m not mature enough to talk about this whole relationship thing, understand?” I held her small hand and said to her in a serious tone, “I want you to understand that whether you are a virgin or not, this won’t affect the relationship between us.”
I pinched her little red, crying nose and said, “Besides, one must always look ahead! Isn’t that right?” Understanding that I was being nice to her, she sniffled and pouted her lips poutingly and said to me, “Mmmm! Give me a kiss!” I reached up and caressed it while I whispered in her ear, “So can I go on?” She nodded sheepishly. I’d only kissed her once when her hands voluntarily hooked tightly around my neck, responding to my kiss with even more enthusiasm than before, and I was surprised at the 180-degree change in her attitude! She left my lips a little and said gratefully, “Tatsu, thank you!” I realized that she was trying to reciprocate my love for her. No wonder someone said, “When you treat a woman well, she will return the favor tenfold.”
She nodded then spoke, “Tatsu, kiss me!” As I lowered myself and kissed her, she murmured in my ear, “Tatsu, today is the most special birthday I’ve ever had in my life, thank you for everything you’ve done for me, and I want to tell you ………… that I love you! “
I was touched and said, “Cassie, you’re so silly, I …… love you!” She laughed and looked away and said, “Liar! Men only talk about it!” I said with a puzzled face, “I really love you!” She pretended to be angry and said, “You only say you love me, but then you don’t move for so long, how can you love me? No wonder everyone says you’re not proactive!” I realized that she was deliberately joking with me! I also jokingly said, “You little ninny, saying I’m not proactive, if I don’t let you experience my best 108 moves tonight, I won’t be called Lin Yichen!” The next thing I heard was her eating her words, “I was joking! Ah…I won’t dare next time la! …”
Afterward, as I lay on the bed contentedly cradling my beloved Cassie in my arms from behind, I pretended to be serious and said to her, “Cassie, I think there’s something I have to confess to you.” She asked me curiously, “Tatsu, what is it?” I told her, “You know I had a girlfriend in the past.” She pretended to be calm and said, “And?” But I felt some uneasiness in her arms. I followed her example just now and said, “Because I loved her then, I really loved her, so…so …….” She seemed a bit anxious and was eager to know, “So what? You say it quickly!” I said with difficulty, “So …… so …… I …… I… …I’m not a human being, I’m an animal!” When she heard me say that, she said, “Puh-hiss!” A loud laugh came out! She turned around and used her small pink fist to gently pound my chest and said, “Lin Yichen, you’re very annoying! Why do you learn to talk like others …….”
