"Yes..." Shen Mian muttered softly, but knowing that the other party couldn't hear her voice, she stretched out her finger to touch him.
Gu Henzhi felt his finger being hooked, and his heart trembled.
In a daze, he suddenly remembered the voice she used to call his boyfriend. Whether it was judging from "Zhou Ying's" previous performance or the tone in today's communication, her personality was not very similar to the female characters he had known in the past. same.
Careful and cautious, yet free and easy.
These two seemingly opposite words did not conflict at all when applied to her.
Gu Henzhi's hooked finger bent, but did not touch anything.
Just as he was about to say something, he heard her say in a small voice: "It's not convenient to talk."
Then it suddenly dawned on her that when she left in a hurry in the afternoon, she said that there were troublesome things that needed to be resolved, which made Gu Henzhi frown slightly. There are some guesses about the situation on the other side.
She said that good people...are in trouble...
So, the other party is also the same person as me?
But how should the "magical" things she brought be explained? Or should they be said to be some kind of high-level life form... However, he saw that the other party was quite comfortable in the shell of "Zhou Ying"...
All of a sudden, all kinds of speculations came into the commander's mind.
On the other side, Shen Mian felt slightly sorry for her 100 points, but she secretly cursed the mall for its pitfalls, and looked at the 200 points she had left and silently lamented.
Now I only have enough points left to say a few words to him. But can this be told to him? That must not be possible. That would make her look so poor...
She didn't originally plan to use the "send message" function. After all, strictly speaking, it wasn't very affordable.
But just now, I don't know why, but by some strange combination of circumstances, I saw Gu Henzhi's slightly disappointed look, and without paying attention, the 100 points had already been spent.
Beauty is misleading!
This was the conclusion Shen Mian finally came to.
"I just got a notice today that I will be asked to speak on stage at the opening ceremony in a few days. This was originally Jin Sizhe's job, but..." Gu Henzhi spoke in a calm tone about what happened today.
He actually didn't know what to say, but he was worried that she would find him too dull based on her personality, and she would become even more unfamiliar as time went by. If he didn't speak, he might not even know when she left.
This is the first time that he actively wants to contact someone of the opposite sex, which is a new experience.
In the afternoon, he went to Xingwang to search "How to establish a good relationship with the opposite sex" by mistake. The conclusions he got were not satisfactory. They were basically unsophisticated conclusions about the relationship between male and female friends. The feeling was the same as when Shen Mian gave him the "30-Day Boyfriend Crash Manual".
He can only pick and improve it according to his own understanding, at least starting from... not being cold.
Shen Mian listened quietly to him narrating what happened during her absence that day. His voice was very pleasant. When narrating, he would occasionally make a joke seriously or add some inner thoughts, which made it sound unsettling. Dull.
She didn't actually need to know what he had done, but since he told it, she listened and tugged on his sleeves from time to time in response.
As time passed, she suddenly realized, was this explaining the itinerary to her girlfriend?
Did he really read the "30-Day Boyfriend Quick Manual"?
Shen Mian suddenly became more energetic when this idea suddenly popped into his mind. Comrade Gu's ideological consciousness was very high! She was satisfied.
Thinking like this, the corners of Shen Mian's mouth turned up slightly unconsciously, and her whole mood instantly improved a lot.
This was actually the first time that Shen Mian had the patience to calm down and listen to someone tell them about the little things that happened around her. Even Wei Duo, she could rarely listen to the other person's endless words from beginning to end.
The two of them were like this, one talking and the other listening for a long time.
It wasn't until Gu Henzhi realized that it was a little late that he finally said to her: "It's very late. Girls should go to bed early. Good night."
"Good night." Although Shen Mian knew that the other party couldn't hear him, she stared at his face and whispered.
Before going to bed, I thought to myself, maybe this is the so-called "sense of companionship" in love development games, right?
Gu Henzhi on the other end slowly breathed a sigh of relief after saying "good night" and receiving a reply from her tugging on his sleeve.
He didn't know if the other party would be interested in what he said, but now it seemed that it might have a good effect.
To be honest, when he first knew that the other party was not convenient to talk to, Gu Henzhi actually felt a lot more relaxed in his heart. The person opposite him in the afternoon was so "enthusiastic and proactive" that he didn't know how to react. Although this feeling is actually not bad, it will make him feel annoyed about his performance.
It was clear that I finally had the opportunity to talk to my target, so why didn't I say anything?
Therefore, when he was well prepared just now, even though he had not talked about anything other than official matters with the opposite sex in private, it didn't seem to be very difficult.
The Commander, who was thinking this way, silently gave himself a thumbs up in his heart.
…
When Shen Mian woke up the next day, Wei Duo had left breakfast for her and was about to go out.
Seeing her getting up sleepily wearing slippers, Wei Duo couldn't help but stepped forward and pinched Shen Mian's cheek. In fact, she wanted to do this when Shen Mian was awake, but she didn't have the chance then.
"I'm so envious that you can sleep until you wake up naturally. I put breakfast on the table. If you want to go out for a walk, remember to mute your phone. I need to check the surveillance today to see if I can find any clues. Also Another case... In short, you may really have Mercury retrograde recently, so be more careful, you know?"
After hearing her instructions, Shen Mian reached out and slapped away the paw on his cheek: "You are Mercury retrograde. If you don't leave, you will be late."
Wei Duo glanced at his watch and hurried out the door.
Shen Mian sat down at the dining table and started eating breakfast. After half a cup of coffee, she gradually became more awake.
Yin Jinchuan said that he would let her help and give her a salary, but he did not say that she must be on call all day.
To put it bluntly, she came here for the so-called Lunar Festival, and it wasn't too much to go out for a stroll. According to Wei Duo, at least there should be nothing wrong with him this morning.
Perhaps it was because Gu Henzhi's "good night" was replaying in her mind the day before. For the first time in her life, she didn't stay up late, so she was particularly awake now.
Shen Mian's mobility was always sufficient. After finishing breakfast, she set out.
The place where she lives now is located within the scenic area, so there are no tickets required to wander around.
Her play didn't have any strong purpose, she was just walking casually.
Until I felt a little thirsty and wanted to go to a convenience store not far away to buy a bottle of water to take with me, but I caught a glimpse of a familiar figure from the corner of my eye.
She did not rush forward, but walked to the small shop next to her. After buying a bottle of mineral water, she said to the boss opposite, seemingly unintentionally: "Today's tourists still insist on jogging in the morning. This is too much." Let’s fight!” He said, glancing in a certain direction.
"Tell him, that's a young man from our village. Tourists have to save their energy, otherwise they won't be able to climb up the mountain!" the shop owner replied with a smile.
