191. Gunman Scumbag (8) (1/2)
Wei Mingyan took the key and kept talking, "Originally I wanted to wait downstairs, but you know that we are downstairs. If you stand for a while waiting for the elevator, you will be bitten by mosquitoes. Don't look at me as a grown man. My mother always says that my skin is more tender than that of girls."
As he said that, he naturally handed his bed to Xu Xinyue to see. From her angle, under the light, the man's skin was indeed white and shiny, especially now under the light, it was almost as if it was glowing white.
Xu Xinyue was also white, but she had never seen a grown man with such good skin. Even Qiu Yichen needed to put on makeup to cover it up.
Occupational disease attacked, she looked at Wei Mingyan's hand, thinking that even if he went to film, he probably wouldn't be visible in the camera even if he didn't put on makeup.
"By the way, it's so late now, the shops downstairs are closed, do you have instant noodles or something? I'm really hungry."
Xu Xinyue didn't have instant noodles.
She also came home tired and hungry. She wanted to fall asleep immediately, but the pitiful look of Wei Mingyan squatting at the door when she opened the staircase flashed through her mind. The words on her lips changed, "I just want to make noodles. You go back first. I'll call you when it's ready."
"Okay, okay, thank you for your hard work! I'll bring my homemade beef sauce later. It tastes great."
Wei Mingyan didn't know what it meant to be embarrassed. His eyes lit up and he agreed directly. He walked out while talking. Before closing the door, he didn't forget to make a heart gesture to Xu Xinyue, which made her laugh and cry.
Wei Mingyan said that he was the same age as her, but in Xu Xinyue's opinion, he looked like a student in school, sunny, enthusiastic, familiar and not annoying.
She thought that it might be because he hadn't worked since he left school, so he still maintained this enthusiasm, unlike her. Xu Xinyue could hardly remember what she was like in school before.
Entering the kitchen, she skillfully boiled water and cooked noodles. Because she hadn't cooked for two people for a long time and didn't know how much an adult man should eat, she accidentally put too much noodles.
It was estimated that they would not be able to finish it in a while, so they would dry it and put it in the refrigerator to eat it tomorrow morning.
Two handfuls of small green vegetables bought last night, an egg for each person, and seasoning, and turned off the fire. Xu Xinyue was about to bend down to get the bowls and chopsticks, when she suddenly remembered that she had cooked for Wei Mingyan.
Xu Xinyue opened the door and went to the opposite door. The door opened after she knocked a few times.
The man in front of her was wearing a white vest. He was looking down and moving his hands quickly on his phone. His eyes never left the phone. He said anxiously, "Wait for me, wait for me, I'll finish soon...ah..."
He played like a tiger, then dropped his hands with a dejected look on his face, "I lost..."
Xu Xinyue couldn't help laughing when she saw her neighbor like this. Maybe she was too tired outside. Every day, she watched Wei Mingyan go out for a run in the morning, look for food everywhere at noon, and go out for a run again in the evening. Every day when they met, they greeted each other with laughter. She couldn't help but feel that the man in front of her was a big boy who hadn't grown up yet.
She was also very wary, but less than half a month after Wei Mingyan moved in, the two of them were already familiar enough to entrust the door key to each other. Although Xu Xinyue was the one being entrusted, she didn't want to cause any trouble in the past.
This shows how likable Wei Mingyan is.
Although it was the first time for him to eat the food cooked by his neighbor, Wei Mingyan sat on the chair very familiarly, looking at the bowl of noodles in front of him, his eyes full of pure admiration, "Xinyue, you are really good at cooking, it looks delicious."
"It's just a bowl of noodles, don't praise me."
Even though she knew he was exaggerating on purpose, how could Xu Xinyue not be happy when her own food was praised?
The reason why she couldn't control the amount was because she had been cooking and eating alone for a long time. Although she felt very happy, she still felt lonely sometimes.
Even when they were together before, Qiu Yichen didn't like to eat the food she cooked, thinking it was too troublesome, and it was more convenient to go to a restaurant outside. At that time, the two of them lived in poverty. In order to make connections, Qiu Yichen ate in the hotel almost every day. He was used to the big fish and meat in the hotel, so of course he looked down on Xu Xinyue's porridge and side dishes.
At that time, she just felt that her boyfriend was too tired and didn't want to bother him. Now think about it, the few times Qiu Yichen came to her house for dinner, she cooked, washed the dishes, and cleaned up. Even the man who bought vegetables didn't interfere at all. I don't know how blind she was at that time that she couldn't even see Qiu Yichen's obvious indifference.
Xu Xinyue was thinking, Wei Mingyan looked at the girl who was staring at the bowl with chopsticks in her hand, put down the bowl and wiped his mouth with paper with satisfaction, "It's delicious. If it wasn't gone, I really want to eat another bowl."
Reminded by his voice, Xu Xinyue raised her head and found that the bowl in front of Wei Mingyan, which was just full, was empty. She was immediately stunned. Has she been in a daze for so long?
The guests are still there, which is too rude. Xu Xinyue quickly covered up and said, "There are still some in the kitchen. I'll go get you another bowl."
"No, no, I'll do it myself, you eat yours."
Wei Mingyan smiled and stood up to serve himself a bowl. This time, Xu Xinyue did not stare blankly, but looked at the neighbor sitting opposite with a little pride and curiosity.
The little pride was of course that Wei Mingyan liked the noodles he made. Although it was probably because he was too hungry, seeing that his own food was so well received and praised by others after eating two bowls in a row, Xu Xinyue felt a long-lost joy in her heart.
Curious, she was curious about how the neighbor sitting opposite managed to maintain his elegant movements while eating so quickly.
Wei Mingyan was obviously good-looking. Although his face was a little round, his posture and movements revealed a feeling of good family education, and his eating movements were also very beautiful.
But she only watched for a short while, how could he finish it?
Xu Xinyue's curiosity became stronger and stronger. After Wei Mingyan asked a little embarrassedly if he could eat a third bowl, she nodded without hesitation and continued to watch her neighbor eat.
But speaking of which, after a closer look, she found that her neighbor's facial features really had a sense of golden ratio.
Xu Xinyue recalled the class in which the teacher talked about appearance:
"Good-looking is not just an adjective. A real beauty, whether male or female, should make you feel happy at first sight. It feels like your eyes have been washed. Of course, this kind of beauty usually has a temperament bonus. A beauty, no matter how beautiful she is, will not attract many eyes if she is timid, because people are destined to be attracted by more outspoken people.
I am not saying that everyone should be outspoken, but that you should be open and generous in everything you do. Don't be timid. If you are afraid before you open your mouth, think about it. You have not let the world down. What are you afraid of? So you must show it. In this way, with 70% appearance, 30% temperament, and your outspoken attitude, you will not be afraid when standing in front of the audience."
It was also this class that made Xu Xinyue learn that anyone can look down on her outside, but she cannot look down on herself. Although she has always been at the bottom, no one dares to bully her.
And now, the man in front of him has perfect facial features, fair skin, sunny temperament, and an extroverted personality. If he were to be sent to the teacher, she would probably give him a perfect score.
And those eyelashes, how could they be so long and thick, even the shape seemed to be carefully adjusted, just looking at him with his eyes downcast and concentrating on eating can make people feel better.
Xu Xinyue was thinking about all sorts of things, and the long and thick eyelashes trembled slightly, and went up, revealing a pair of more beautiful eyes.
The two maintained this strange stare for several seconds. Xu Xinyue was caught peeking at someone and didn't know what to say. Just as she was struggling with the words, she saw the fair face of the handsome man opposite her gradually turned red.
Wei Mingyan tightened his grip on the chopsticks, his slender fingertips slightly whitened due to nervousness, and his beautiful eyes that looked like they were painted were a little helpless. For the first time, his voice was not clear and sunny, but a little hesitant. He asked in a low voice, "Xinyue, what are you looking at me for?"
Xu Xinyue was confused by his reaction. She felt that something seemed wrong, but she couldn't figure out what was wrong. She searched for reasons in her mind, but for some reason, looking at the innocent and beautiful eyes of her neighbor in front of her, she really didn't know what to say.
A strange atmosphere gradually filled the living room. In Xu Xinyue's opinion, the two people just kept looking at each other strangely without any embarrassment. From her angle, she could see Wei Mingyan's face getting redder and redder.
As if the brain that was frozen by the iceberg finally began to think, the reaction of the person in front of her, and the embarrassed and slightly happy eyes.
Mingyan, he wouldn't think she likes...
"Well, I'm done eating. It's so late, I'll go home first!"
Wei Mingyan stood up suddenly, with a very obvious panic on his face, and his eyes were evasive when he looked at Xu Xinyue.
Xu Xinyue was a little hesitant at first, but now seeing his reaction, she had almost made up her mind. She wanted to explain, but the neighbor in front of her didn't give her a chance to explain at all, and rushed out the door quickly, almost with his hands and feet.
Wei Mingyan ran out of the door at lightning speed, and was about to close the door with one hand, but suddenly stretched out his hand to block it before the door was closed. He stood by the door with a bit of embarrassment, with only his upper body exposed.
"See you tomorrow."
He said, and didn't forget to make a heart shape with his hands.
"Mingyan, it's not..."
Xu Xinyue subconsciously walked forward to explain, and the door had been quietly closed.
She stood there thinking for a long time, and she felt that Mingyan thought she liked him, and that reaction was also like that.
But how could she explain it?
Just knock on the door and tell him, don't think too much, I don't like you, I just treat you as a friend.
Xu Xinyue imagined this scene, and her face suddenly became bitter. If she really told her neighbor this, she would be the one who thought too much.
At this point, she could only comfort herself. Wei Mingyan's reaction just now didn't seem like he was going to accept this "love".
After all, if he wanted to accept it, he wouldn't have left in such a hurry. This should be a sign of escape. According to the behavioral analysis class he learned before, he left so hurriedly now because he wanted to continue to be friends with her but was afraid of embarrassment.
As long as she calmly expressed that she didn't have that idea in the future, Mingyan, who was so carefree, would definitely forget about it.
Xu Xinyue recalled what happened just now while washing the dishes. After making sure that she had nothing missed, she gradually put her mind at ease.
She didn't have to work tomorrow morning, so she could sleep in. She had a midnight snack tonight, so she had to exercise when she woke up tomorrow to avoid getting fat.
Xu Xinyue arranged her schedule for tomorrow, washed her hair, took a bath, and cleaned herself up. She said good night to her little turtle and fell asleep comfortably.
***
As expected, she slept until ten o'clock the next day. Xu Xinyue lay on the bed and woke up for a while, stretched her waist, got up, washed her face, opened the door and prepared to go out to buy groceries.
As soon as she opened the door, she found that the door opposite was wide open. She was a little surprised. According to Wei Mingyan, he should have finished running downstairs and was looking for food at this time.
Xu Xinyue didn't think much about it and just passed by the door and prepared to go to the stairwell.
On the sofa in the room, a good-looking man was facing the door, passionately operating the game character on his mobile phone. He saw Xu Xinyue's figure passing by from the corner of his eye.
He was startled, stopped playing the game, threw his mobile phone, put on his shoes quickly and ran out. With a quick and elegant posture, he stopped behind Xu Xinyue with a slight panting breath.
Wei Mingyan exhaled, and there were beads of sweat on his forehead due to nervousness and running fast, but his face showed a familiar smile to Xu Xinyue, "Xinyue, what a coincidence, you are coming downstairs too."
Xu Xinyue, who just passed by and saw him playing games, said: "...Ah, yes."
Just after answering, the beautiful smile on the face of the neighbor in front of him became even brighter, "Where are you going? Maybe we are on the same way."
Looking at Wei Mingyan in front of her, Xu Xinyue gradually felt a little uneasy.
"You seem to be wearing different clothes today than before."
"Really?"
The man smiled with a bit of pride, he slightly turned his body, coughed lightly, and pretended to be indifferent, "Doesn't he look handsome?"
Xu Xinyue was not only slightly uneasy, she felt that something was wrong.
Although she had not known Wei Mingyan for a long time, Xu Xinyue still understood his character because of his simple and easy to understand.
He obviously never paid much attention to dressing up. He usually wore a vest and shorts to run downstairs. He wore white and black clothes every day, and he wore slippers except for running.
But now, the man was wearing a tighter shirt, which perfectly showed his body lines. Wei Mingyan usually wore loose clothes, and Xu Xinyue didn't expect that he had such a good figure.
And the black trousers, worn on the man, made his legs look slender and beautiful. He was not wearing slippers on his feet, but a more famous brand.
If Wei Mingyan was still a carefree student yesterday, he looked like a young master who had been trained since childhood.
A man suddenly dressed like this and was so attentive to her...
Xu Xinyue was also pursued since she was a child, and she would not be so stupid as to not know what he meant when the person in front of her showed it so obviously.
She rejected many people, but she really didn't know how to speak to Wei Mingyan.
It was obvious that the sunny and enthusiastic boy in front of her was acting like this because of the misunderstanding last night, and he mistakenly thought that she liked him, but the best time to clarify yesterday had passed.
Could it be that I really had to think too much again?
"Mingyan, actually..."
"The elevator is here."
Xu Xinyue was interrupted and had to enter the elevator.
Wei Mingyan, who was dressed in a serious manner, stood aside very gentlemanly, watching Xu Xinyue go in, and then he followed in, looking at her with bright eyes, "Xinyue, what did you say just now?"
Xu Xinyue looked at the eyes in front of her, full of expectations.
Obviously I had thought it through, but looking at these eyes, it was really...
She used a more euphemistic way, "When I was eating noodles last night, I kept looking at your eyes and found that they were quite spirited. I was thinking that if you go to act, the effect will be very good. Do you want to go to the crew to try it out? I think you are quite suitable."
Xu Xinyue breathed a sigh of relief after she said it, and then carefully looked at Wei Mingyan's face, fearing that he would find out that she was overthinking and get angry.
However——
"Really? Are my eyes bright? I didn't notice it before, but forget about acting, I'm more suited to staying at home..."
The man's expression was even a little surprised. He seemed to be completely unaware of the hidden meaning in Xu Xinyue's words. He looked at her with a bit of joy and shyness.
To be honest, when a man with such perfect facial features looked at her with such eyes, Xu Xinyue's heart really stopped beating for a beat, but she had just experienced a failed relationship, and was exhausted physically and mentally. In the short term, she really didn't want to continue.
She directly brought up Qiu Yichen, who had broken up a long time ago.
"If you like to stay at home, you can play games. My boyfriend also likes to play games. If he comes, do you want to play together?"
Xu Xinyue just finished this sentence, and watched the man who was smiling and expectant just now, his expression dimmed little by little.
He even asked in disbelief, "Do you have a boyfriend?"
For a moment, looking at Wei Mingyan like this, she almost couldn't help denying it, but in the end, Xu Xinyue nodded, trying to keep calm on her face, "Yes, you haven't seen it yet, I'll introduce you to each other another day."
The elevator door opened, and Wei Mingyan stood still, still staring at Xu Xinyue with his beautiful eyes that looked like they were painted.
Being looked at with such eyes, one would really feel a huge sense of guilt for doing something wrong.
In the end, Xu Xinyue was the first to give in and hurriedly looked away, "I'm going to buy vegetables first, see you in the evening."
They didn't meet in the evening.
Usually, it was dusk when Xu Xinyue finished work, and Wei Mingyan would run circles on the garden track. When he saw her from a distance, he would greet her. Sometimes, he would just finish running, and the two would go back together, talking and laughing.
Today, Xu Xinyue came back early, but she didn't see the familiar figure on the track.
She felt a moment of loss in her heart. When she got out of the elevator, the door of the room opposite was closed, and she couldn't see the situation inside.
She couldn't tell what she felt in her heart, anyway, it was weird.
Xu Xinyue opened the door and went home. Looking at the vegetables she bought in the morning, she suddenly remembered that Wei Mingyan praised her cooking with sparkling eyes last night. It seemed that this was the first time someone praised her cooking since she moved out of her home.
She suddenly didn't want to cook anymore. After washing up, she planned to sleep. After packing up and drying her hair, Xu Xinyue looked at the sky outside which had already darkened. She didn't know why she felt heavy in her heart.
The little turtle in the fish tank was looking out leisurely. Xu Xinyue looked at the little turtle that had accompanied her for a long time, and thought of the little guy that Wei Mingyan raised.
Does he like turtles too?
At that time, she didn't have time to ask, and she never thought about it later.
No, what did she want to do with Wei Mingyan.
Xu Xinyue was startled by her mind full of thoughts about the opposite door. She quickly forced herself not to think about it and closed her eyes to go to sleep.
But as soon as she closed her eyes, she saw the man's face of disbelief in the moment when he knew she had a boyfriend during the day. There was even hurt in his eyes.
Xu Xinyue suddenly stuffed herself into the quilt.
Can't think about it. We agreed not to fall in love.
Besides, she only has enough food and clothing now, how to spend money on dating? Wasn't the money spent on dating with Qiu Yichen enough?
Moreover, Mingyan's temperament is a little too simple. Although this is good, she has always wanted to find a gentle man who can make her feel safe at critical moments since she was a child.
At that time, wasn't it because Qiu Yichen would drive away those with bad intentions for her that she agreed...
Although she found thousands of reasons in her heart, the image of the neighbor next door still lingered in Xu Xinyue's mind.
She hugged her quilt and buried her whole face in it this time.
While she was struggling, there was a knock on the door outside.
Is it Mingyan?
Xu Xinyue got out of bed and put on her shoes without thinking, and opened the door with a smile on her face before the person arrived.
Outside the door, Qiu Yichen, who was dressed exquisitely, stood. His face was a little ugly and his expression was full of fatigue, "Xinyue, lend me some more money."
The boyfriend who broke up with her after cheating came to borrow money.
How could this person be so shameless?
The smile on Xu Xinyue's face disappeared immediately. Without saying a word, she coldly closed the door.
Qiu Yichen was quick-witted and blocked half of his body in the crack of the door to prevent her from closing it, "Xu Xinyue! Are you really so heartless!"
"Get out of here! If you make trouble again, I will call the police. Then you can see whether your loss is greater or mine!"
"Xu Xinyue, we have been together for such a long time. Is your heart made of stone?"
Xu Xinyue sneered, "Yes, my heart is made of stone. I will count to three. If you don't leave, I will call the police immediately."
Qiu Yichen's face suddenly became uglier, but there was no one around. He entered Xu Xinyue's house and took her mobile phone. How could she call the police? He just broke in.
He was scheming. He was afraid that the neighbors would hear the noise. He said gently, "Xinyue, I know you are angry with me. Let me in first, and I will talk to you properly, okay?"
"Qiu Yichen, get out of here!!"
Xu Xinyue never thought that he would be so shameless. She pushed the door out desperately, but because of the disparity in strength between men and women, she watched the door being squeezed open little by little.
Just when Qiu Yichen was about to come in with a look of joy on his face, his entire neck was suddenly lifted up by a big hand from behind. Before he could react, he was pushed open with great force.
Xu Xinyue's forehead was full of sweat. When she stood firm, she found that her heart was beating loudly.
She looked over and it was indeed Wei Mingyan.
