The leaves rustle and sing for the wind.
The man in the yard has an upright posture, and a trace of nervousness can be seen in his always cold brows. His eyes were dark and his lips were slightly pursed.
Su Yuncheng was a little nervous at the moment.
He knew that it was a bit rude of him to give her a bicycle like this. He thought that she would sternly refuse, thought that she would realize that he had different feelings for her, thought that she would dislike him for being too old... He made countless assumptions, and based on them, he came up with Various ways of coping.
Su Yuncheng felt that his body temperature was rising, and his heart was beating faster and harder than ever before.
Lin Nianhe was stunned and was filled with endless surprises.
She smiled, brightly.
"Thank you, Brother Yun Cheng, I was thinking just now that I would buy a women's bicycle later." Lin Nianhe smiled, with a dazed look on his face, "But I didn't bring much money when I came to town, how much did you spend in total? I’ll go back and get it for you.”
There was a softness unique to a girl in her voice, and her tone could not hide the joy, but it was not the shyness or nervousness he expected, not even the slightest bit of discomfort.
Su Yuncheng: "..."
The little girl didn't refuse or think too much. She just wanted to give him the money as before.
He tossed and turned for many days, but could not say a single word of what he came up with.
Su Yuncheng smiled bitterly.
He is really young and has no clue at all.
Of course he didn't know that after he asked Lin Nianhe's age, Lin Nianhe had already ruled out the possibility that he liked the original owner.
As for her, the long-term hardships of life and death in the apocalypse are enough to erase all thoughts of falling in love. Even if he has grown up in her aesthetics, she can't really think of anything else besides finding it pleasing to the eye and satisfying to eat.
Lin Nianhe looked at the key in his hand eagerly, as if urging: Please tell me how much it costs.
Su Yuncheng came to his senses, swallowed the dryness in his throat, and replied: "One hundred and eighty."
"Oh," Lin Nianhe nodded, "Fortunately, my dad gave me some private money... and I also have tickets. How much does it cost in total?"
Su Yuncheng sighed in his heart: "My dad sent me the ticket. We don't need a bicycle at home, and I have one, so I just bought it for you. I don't have to worry about it anymore."
"Is that so?"
Lin Nianhe lowered his eyes and thought.
She didn't stay in the capital for long, but she also knew that her uncles and aunts in the Su family all had bicycles, and Uncle Su also had a matching car.
Thinking about it this way, Su Yuncheng's explanation is quite reasonable.
She hesitated for a moment, then reached out and took the key from his palm.
The fingertips traced across the palm, and the soft touch almost made Su Yuncheng tell her directly what he was thinking.
He quickly retracted his hand, put his fist against his lower lip, and coughed lightly: "You try it, and I'll adjust it for you if it doesn't fit."
"Okay." Lin Nianhe smiled and nodded, "You're welcome then. I'll send you the money when I'm free."
"There's no rush," Su Yuncheng said, "It's not safe for you to go out with so much money. I'll just go get it from you when I'm done."
Lin Nianhe didn't comment, smiled, went to the bicycle, unlocked the bicycle, and rode on.
Facts have proved that even a 26-inch bike is not easy to ride, and the bike is still very heavy. But she finally didn't have to tiptoe anymore.
Su Yuncheng looked at the thrilling scene of Lin Nianhe riding a bicycle, and for a while he suspected that he had done something wrong again.
Lin Nianhe walked around the yard several times before stopping in front of Su Yuncheng and said with a smile: "It's good, no need to change it."
"That's good."
Su Yuncheng put the cloth bag in his hand into the basket of the car and took out a remittance slip and gave it to her: "Here, keep it."
Lin Nianhe took it and saw that the amount of the remittance was: fifty yuan.
It should be the living expenses that Mother Lin gave her.
She nodded and put the remittance slip away: "Thank you, Brother Yun Cheng."
"It's a small matter." Su Yuncheng raised his chin toward the courtyard door, "Let's go, I have a meeting in the afternoon."
"okay."
Lin Nianhe was the first to ride out the door, followed by Su Yuncheng. After locking the door, he rode his bicycle back with her.
Only then did Lin Nianhe notice that Su Yuncheng lived only two streets away from the police station. All the people living nearby should be police comrades.
No wonder it's so quiet.
she thought to herself.
Su Yuncheng sent her back to the door of the state-owned hotel before saying goodbye and leaving. Before leaving, he also told her: "Sister-in-law Zhou is right. If you need anything, just ask Zhou Xu to give me a message."
"Okay." Lin Nianhe waved to him, "Brother Yun Cheng, be careful."
The corners of Su Yuncheng's mouth raised slightly, and he nodded: "Okay."
After Su Yuncheng left, Wang Xixi approached Lin Nianhe and looked at the brand-new bicycle curiously: "It's so beautiful! But it looks a lot smaller."
"Yes, 26 inches." Lin Nianhe touched his trouser pocket, "Daxi, can you accompany me to the post office?"
"OK."
Lin Nianhe went to the post office not just to withdraw money, she mainly wanted to make a phone call.
She owed more and more favors to Su Yuncheng, and she was already in the situation of "having too much debt to worry about". But it’s hard to take the Su family’s bicycle ticket for free. This is something she can’t do, so...
"Girl! You miss your dad, don't you?"
Comrade Lao Lin was as cheerful as ever.
Lin Nianhe pursed his lips and smiled softly, his expression softening a lot: "Dad, are you and mom okay?"
"Everything is fine, everything is fine," Father Lin replied with a smile, "Nothing happened to either of us. Your brother stayed home for two days a few days ago. There was nothing at home. Just take care of yourself outside. That's right. , how is the school you mentioned before?"
"It's already under construction. Brother Yun Cheng has asked the engineering team to help. It will be completed in seven or eight days... By the way, dad, I have to go to the literacy class tonight to teach."
"Oh, my daughter is amazing! Look, this can help the villagers to eliminate illiteracy...Daughter, daddy tells you that literacy should be based on reality, and what you teach must be helpful to the lives of the villagers. …”
Comrade Lao Lin carefully guided Lin Nianhe on the correct way to carry out literacy. Lin Nianhe listened very carefully and asked a few questions from time to time, which made Comrade Lao Lin particularly satisfied.
"Okay dad, I've remembered everything. I have to go back to the brigade as soon as possible. By the way, please go back and thank Uncle Su for me. He gave Brother Yun Cheng the bicycle ticket and Brother Yun Cheng bought me a bicycle."
"ah?"
Father Lin was slightly startled. Recently, his workplace didn’t have any bicycle tickets.
However, he figured out the "truth" in an instant - it was not given by his employer, but by a relative of the Su family.
Father Lin smiled nonchalantly: "Okay, I'll just keep it if I buy it for you. Your brother was thinking about giving it to you in exchange for a bicycle ticket a few days ago. It's okay, my dear, you can ride with confidence."
"Okay, I'll give Brother Yun Cheng the money, and if you want the tickets, don't forget to thank me."
"My daughter is just polite, okay, dad will thank you now! By the way, daughter, do you still have enough money?"
"That's enough. I just received my mother's remittance order."
"That's fine. If it's not enough, call dad."
"Um."
Three minutes later, Su's father's office door was kicked open again.
"Lao Su! My Hehe called me! Look how filial my daughter is!"
Father Su rolled his eyes at him and didn't want to pay attention to him.
"My daughter is so awesome. She has started to help educate the villagers about illiteracy!"
"..."
"Yes, Lao Su, thank you for the bicycle ticket. I heard from He He that Yun Cheng gave her the ticket. Thank you very much. Are you coming to your house for dinner with your sister-in-law tonight?"
Dad Su was stunned, at a loss, and his mind went blank.
When did he mail that bastard a bicycle ticket?
