After Escaping Marriage [GL]
Chapter 43:
Yu Qingtang's expression was heavy, her eyes were a little hard to distinguish, and there was an imperceptible coldness.
Cheng Zhanxi seemed to be unaware, wearing smoky pink home clothes, pink slippers, and holding a cup in both hands, she pursed her lower lip, and looked extremely apologetic for disturbing her, and said, "Does Teacher Yu have a spare key? Can you open the door for me?"
Yu Qingtang's expression flashed for a very short time.
Didn't she do it on purpose?
Yu Qingtang, who was a gentleman with the heart of a villain, turned to self-examination, and renewed Cheng Zhanxi's image in her heart, which strengthened her aura.
Yu Qingtang's expression softened and said, "Yes, I'll get it for you."
"Thank you, Teacher Yu." Cheng Zhanxi bowed slightly, "I'm sorry."
"You are welcome."
Yu Qingtang opened the door of 2101, and did not shy away from Cheng Zhanxi standing at the door, squatted down in front of the TV cabinet, opened the drawer, and took out a bunch of keys.
She found the key to 2102, straightened her waist, and found that Cheng Zhanxi turned her back to the door to avoid suspicion.
"Mr. Cheng."
Cheng Zhanxi turned around, saw the key in her hand, and apologized again: "I'm sorry."
Except for the suite where Yu Qingtang lives in this building, which is an electronic fingerprint lock, the doors of other houses are all traditional mechanical locks, which the developer brings with them. If the tenant wants to use a combination lock, they need to pay for it themselves.
Yu Qingtang opened the door for her with the spare key, and the bright light poured out from the room, and you could see the warm layout of the living room.
Yu Qingtang couldn't help looking at it more, turned around and said, "Mr. Cheng, if you often forget to bring your key, it is recommended to change the electronic lock, which is more convenient." After a pause, she said, "Give me the receipt after changing the lock, which can be reimbursed."
"Thank you Teacher Yu for your suggestion, I will consider it." Cheng Zhanxi smiled, "Actually, I have a good memory, and today was just an accident."
She didn't want to change the fingerprint lock, so Yu Qingtang would not have her fingerprint and password, and could not enter her door anytime, anywhere.
Although Yu Qingtang doesn't want to enter her house now, but if there is a chance in the future, wouldn't it be an extra barrier if she changed the lock? Cheng Zhanxi only hates that there are too many obstacles between them, there is no reason to find trouble for himself.
As for security issues, the 24-hour duty property on the first floor, the security guards who patrol at any time, and the infrared alarm are the largest security systems in this community, and Cheng Zhanxi is not worried.
In order to squat Yu Qingtang every day, "the door of my house is always open", does she still care about this extra electronic lock?
Hearing what Cheng Zhanxi said, Yu Qingtang had no reason to force her to change the lock, so she nodded lightly and said, "Mr. Cheng, good night."
Cheng Zhanxi stood under the light at the door, skin better than snow.
"Good night." The woman said with a smile.
The door of 2101 was closed, Yu Qingtang pressed her back against the door, and heard another door closing outside.
She confirmed it from the cat's eyes, the corridor was empty and empty, and walked inside.
Cheng Zhanxi went to the kitchen, and while washing the cups, he recalled Yu Qingtang's house he saw at the door just now.
The layout of the house is exactly the same as hers. It has not been remodeled. The living room is very empty. Except for the TV remote control, the coffee table is as clean as the dining table. The table and chairs are placed in its place, and the chairs are pushed into the table. Inside, there was an icy cold breath.
Cheng Zhanxi's kick to close the door was intentional or unintentional.
When her feet hit the door, she remembered that she didn't have the key, but she did.
She wanted to test Yu Qingtang's tolerance for her. If Yu Qingtang and her were tacit and let her into the house, it would be her dream to develop a relationship between the two of them naturally; but she would make Yu Qingtang stand up. Prepared, so after Yu Qingtang showed unobvious resistance and contemplation, she offered to borrow a spare key to preemptively and restore her image.
Cheng Zhanxi will not force her to do anything in any name, she will only offer her the opportunity to choose, Yu Qingtang nods or shakes her head, she readily accepts.
Cheng Zhanxi took the initiative to pursue others for the first time, and the process was more interesting than she imagined.
Just like when she was creating an oil painting, from inspiration to conception, she showed her mood on the canvas bit by bit, all the pains and joys in the process of creation were liked.
Cheng Zhanxi wiped the water cup dry and put it away, then lifted his foot into the studio.
***
The next morning at half past six.
Yu Qingtang was waiting for the elevator at the elevator entrance. As soon as the door opened, the people inside raised their heads.
The two were stunned at the same time.
Cheng Zhanxi was wearing a dark blue running windbreaker, sports trousers, and jogging shoes. Sweat dripped down the side of his face, and his neck was also full of sweat. His body was hot, and his fair skin was strangely rosy.
Yu Qingtang moved her lips and said, "Just finished exercising?" The voice was a little low.
"Well, I ran an extra lap today." Cheng Zhanxi said, pulling down the zipper as if it was unbearably hot. His **** and straight collarbone was also sweaty, glowing with a cold white light, which made people feel Couldn't look away.
Underneath her coat was a black tight-fitting sports vest, with two full arcs, water droplets dripping down into the deep recesses, and the spring light was looming. Yu Qingtang's throat slipped unconsciously.
Yu Qingtang forced his eyes to return to Cheng Zhanxi's face, calmed down, and said, "I'm going to school."
She stepped sideways out of the way.
"Okay, I'll go back and take a shower." Cheng Zhanxi came out of the elevator, the heat after the exercise surrounded Yu Qingtang, and her presence was so strong that her breathing was unsteady.
Yu Qingtang nodded hastily and walked into the elevator.
...why does she smell so good when she sweats?
"Mr. Yu will see you later." Cheng Zhanxi waved to her outside the elevator with a bright smile.
"See you later." Yu Qingtang said in a low voice.
The elevator door slowly closed in front of him.
Yu Qingtang kept recalling the scene just now, raising her hand to cover her hot ears.
"Hello, Miss Yu." The front desk on the first floor looked at the figure coming from the elevator.
Yu Qingtang didn't seem to hear, and hurried out with her head lowered and her footsteps down.
The lady at the front desk: "???"
Half an hour later, Cheng Zhanxi also came out of the elevator.
The professional smile of the lady at the front desk has become more cordial to the naked eye: "Miss Cheng, good morning."
Cheng Zhanxi stopped politely and said with a smile, "Good morning."
The lady at the front desk sent her back with emotion.
Let's not talk about the first Miss Yu. The new Miss Cheng is not an ordinary person from her dress to her temperament, and she also goes to work every morning.
Why is everyone working so hard in this world? That requires a salted fish like her to balance it out.
So she happily touched the fish again.
Yu Qingtang didn't study at night on Tuesday. Cheng Zhanxi asked her to go to a restaurant with a good local reputation. She took a 20-minute taxi and went back to the community directly after eating, without going to school.
Cheng Zhanxi took her for a walk around Swan Lake on the grounds of digestion.
The breeze blew, gently rubbing his cheeks.
Residents can be seen walking everywhere, including a family of three, as well as couples and couples, arm in arm, relaxed and comfortable.
Cheng Zhanxi was facing the lake and leaning on the railing. The place by the water was windy. She put her slender and fair fingers in her long hair with one hand and casually pulled it back.
Yu Qingtang looked over her shoulder and pretended to be looking behind her, but in reality he kept paying attention to her from the corner of his eye.
"Does Teacher Yu have the habit of taking a walk?"
"no."
"Then what do you do after dinner?"
"Prepare for lessons and watch TV."
"the same with me."
Yu Qingtang looked at her suspiciously.
Cheng Zhanxi said solemnly, "I take a walk occasionally, and spend most of my time drawing and reading, or chatting with friends and teachers."
Yu Qingtang: "…"
What kind of thing is this?
But the corners of his lips could not help but turn up slightly.
Cheng Zhanxi put his hands on the railing and faced the lake. There was a circle of lanterns along the river, the water was sparkling, and there was a thin boat in the middle of the lake, which gently pulled away from the water.
Cheng Zhanxi pointed at the boat: "Mr. Yu, what is that for?"
Yu Qingtang looked over, shook his head and said, "I don't know."
Although she moved here for a long time, she didn't even know how many buildings there were in the community, and she hardly ever came down to walk around. She only knew the road from the gate of the community to Building 19.
Cheng Zhanxi was excited: "I'll ask, you're waiting for me here."
She only had time to see Cheng Zhanxi's back.
Yu Qingtang: "…"
Where did Teacher Cheng come from so much curiosity? Are all artists like this?
The painter's filter appeared in time, and Yu Qingtang's eyes showed a faint longing.
There are many people on duty in the community, Cheng Zhanxi acted quickly, and came back after a short time. When he saw Yu Qingtang, he smiled and asked mysteriously:
"Mr. Yu, guess what this boat is for?"
"I have no idea."
"Just take a guess."
Yu Qingtang thought for a while: "Pay for renting a lake tourer?"
"Hahahahaha." Cheng Zhanxi came close to her ear and said clearly, word by word, "Trash fisher."
Unprepared, Yu Qingtang let out a light laughing sound.
Cheng Zhanxi continued: "There are also weeds and fallen leaves floating on the lake..."
Yu Qingtang cleared his throat and struggled to hold back the laughter.
Cheng Zhanxi rested her chin on her shoulder, rubbed it lightly, and said coquettishly, "People have worked so hard to ask for an answer, so you can't laugh a little more." Yu Qingtang's laughter was so good, she Haven't heard enough yet.
Cheng Zhanxi is half a head taller than Yu Qingtang, but her skeleton is not large, tall and slender, and it is not against harmony to just cuddle her little bird.
Yu Qingtang can hold her in his arms as long as he reaches out his hand.
The knuckles hanging by her side were slightly bent, and she did not raise her hand, but did not push it away.
Cheng Zhanxi tentatively stretched out his arms and hugged her gently.
The chin resting on her shoulder was also raised, and the ears were touching the side of her smooth face.
Yu Qingtang clenched her fists and lowered her eyes quietly.
Cheng Zhanxi hugged her, and then said softly: "But they are not working now. Do you want to take a boat? Let me ask if I can borrow a row?"
"No." Yu Qingtang refused, with a soft ending.
Cheng Zhanxi's mind was swayed, and the arms around her couldn't help but tighten a little, trying to make the two of them stick closer without a gap.
Yu Qingtang suddenly woke up from the illusion, wrestled his shoulders, broke away from her embrace, and took two steps back.
She clipped her long dangling hair behind her ears with her hands, lowered her eyelids, and said in a cold voice, "It's getting late, go back."
After she finished speaking, she left without waiting for Cheng Zhanxi to respond.
Cheng Zhanxi regretted that his bowels were blue.
She followed behind Yu Qingtang and slapped her arm bitterly, making you unable to control it!
She exerted a bit of strength, her palms pressed against her flesh, and there was a snapping sound.
Yu Qingtang paused slightly in front of him and continued to walk forward.
There were other people in the elevator going up, which relieved the embarrassment between the two to a certain extent. On the last sixth floor, the two were left alone in a space to get along.
Yu Qingtang stared at the numbers that kept beating, her eyes unblinking, her expression indifferent.
Cheng Zhanxi's eyes flickered.
Ding-
The two went out one after another and separated at the elevator entrance.
"Mr. Yu, good night."
"…Good night."
Cheng Zhanxi watched the door of 2101 close in front of him, turned around and entered 2102, lost all expression, and slowly sat down on the sofa, rubbing his face with both hands.
Yu Qingtang took the pajamas and went directly into the bathroom.
The warm water poured from head to toe and splashed on the floor tiles in the bathroom. Yu Qingtang closed her eyes, her pores were warmly dilated under the high temperature, and in the dense white mist, her thoughts drifted away naturally and uncontrollably.
for a long time.
She raised her hand to turn off the water abruptly, her back against the cold wall, the biting chill made her shiver, and the pervasive thoughts in her mind disappeared.
Yu Qingtang took the bath towel hanging on the shelf, wiped herself dry, put on cotton long-sleeved pajamas, and went into the study.
The midterm exam is over, and there will be a parent-teacher meeting this weekend, so she needs to prepare in advance.
I can't go out to dinner with Teacher Cheng tomorrow, it's too much time-consuming.
***
Cheng Zhanxi had a dream.
In the dream, she not only hugged Yu Qingtang tightly, but also kissed her deeply.
Wake up feeling very empty.
The automatic curtains in the bedroom opened, the night revealed a deep blue, and there was some light in the sky, and the dawn was about to break.
Cheng Zhanxi couldn't sleep, so he simply went downstairs with his easel and tools on his back and went to the Swan Lake in the community to sketch.
The sun jumped out of the clouds, the golden sunlight covered the earth, and it also shone brightly on the lake. A small boat was docked on the shore. The person on the boat had just finished the salvage work in the early morning. He was wearing blue work clothes and wearing A knitted hat, carrying a bag of garbage in his hand, was walking to the shore.
Residents who got up and ran early in the morning passed by, slowed down, and even stopped behind her to watch.
Some saw her beauty, sitting alone by the lake sketching, taking pictures of her with their mobile phones.
Cheng Zhanxi has nothing else to do.
People came and went. She painted from 5:00 a.m. to 9:30 a.m., and moved her neck and wrists, which were sore from sitting in one sitting position for a long time, before moving things back and putting them in the studio.
Yu Qingtang in the office picked up the phone and glanced at the time. Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at the notification bar at the top without any news, and entered WeChat with his finger on his own initiative.
The news of Cheng Zhanxi still stayed yesterday.
No morning run this morning?
But it's already nine o'clock, and it's time to get up. If there is no news, you won't come to class. Are you sick?
Influenza has been frequent recently, and many people have caught a cold.
As a colleague and landlord, do you need to greet her?
Yang Li: "Mr. Yu, why hasn't Mr. Cheng come yet?"
Yu Qingtang locked the screen of the phone, the emotions in his eyes calmed down, and raised his head, "I don't know."
Yang Li wondered, "Don't you two live together?"
Yu Qingtang didn't think deeply about why Yang Li knew that they lived together, nor did she think that they lived together or not, so she still shook her head.
Yang Lixin said: Is there a conflict?
Cheng Zhanxi has a physical education class in the morning, not in class 7, but in another class. The preparation bell rang, but she still hadn't arrived.
Yu Qingtang called her.
Cheng Zhanxi picked it up, his voice panting: "Hello."
Yu Qingtang said, "You have classes in the morning, remember?"
Cheng Zhanxi said, "remember, I'm on my way to the playground."
Yu Qingtang frowned invisibly: "Have you arrived at school?"
Cheng Zhanxi said, "Yes."
Yu Qingtang was silent for a second and said, "It's alright, Teacher Cheng, let's go to class."
Cheng Zhanxi said, "Okay."
Yu Qingtang hung up the phone.
Yu Qingtang was stunned for a while, Fang slowly picked up the pen at hand, took one from the workbook piled on the desk, and opened the correction.
She was like a cog in disrepair, with a rusty creak with every bite, and slowly, slowly, it returned to smoothness.
