old enemy riding a bamboo horse

Chapter 50

There is a person who feels sorry for each other

There is a heart to heart

Although the summer vacation was long, they didn't get along for a long time.

Lu Henglin participated in a summer program of the professor and needed to go back, while Xia Chengqi wanted to prepare for his admission and went to Palo Alto to familiarize himself with the environment in advance.

So halfway through the summer they separated again.

This time, because they had the vows they sincerely made to each other, they became firmer and calmer.

Then one day during the video, the little dispute came again.

The reason was that during the video, Xia Chengqi's roommate Daniel came to borrow his toolbox.

Xia Chengqi got up to get the toolbox and came back, and saw Lu Henglin on the other side of the screen going crazy, "Do you have a roommate?"

"Is this strange?" Xia Chengqi tried to comfort him, "We have our own rooms, and we only meet occasionally."

"Did Secretary Xie not prepare an apartment for you?"

"She mentioned it, but I declined. I think the current situation is very good. I have a full scholarship, and I can even pay for the rent myself." Xia Chengqi replied calmly.

"No, how can I let my wife suffer in a foreign country?" Lu Henglin was going crazy.

"Before you found out that I had a roommate, you had no objection to my living environment." Xia Chengqi persuaded him patiently, "Remember, you must maturely respect my choice, as you said."

"You always want to press me with this sentence, right?" Lu Henglin was just not happy.

"My life is already very good now. If I hadn't met you, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to sit here. I don't want to waste my good luck on these trivial matters. After all, I already have you, right?" Xia Chengqi Changed the way, to please him instead.

"It's better to live alone in a house that's not too big, so my roommate will hear any noise I make when I go to find you." Lu Henglin was still depressed.

Xia Chengqi laughed, "You are enough, what noise do you want to make?"

"Hey, you're thinking too much. For example, if I want to make dumplings for you to eat, the sound of chopping stuffing can't be avoided." Lu Henglin smiled slyly.

The second small dispute was when Lu Henglin secretly bought a plane ticket to see him, and then found out that he was working part-time.

Studying in the same country, but in two cities on the east and west coasts, there is still a three-hour time difference.Lu Henglin complained more than once that they had to take a five-hour flight to meet, but he still came here with a sense of integrity.

It was a bit of a coincidence that Daniel told Lu Henglin that Xia Chengqi had gone to work. The only thing that pleased him was not washing dishes in convenience stores or the like, but a job of helping people draw pictures.

But when Xia Chengqi came back, he still saw Lu Henglin sitting on his bed with a gloomy face.

He knew that Daniel didn't tell him that Lu Henglin came over, but that he received a transfer message when he was finishing the drawing, and Lu Henglin transferred him a six-figure dollar.

"What are you doing?" Xia Chengqi held up his smelly and hard face helplessly. He really showed the sharp outline of an adult. When he didn't speak or smile, he would appear stern and strong, making people involuntarily Surrender.

"Show that you can support your wife."

"It's not that I'm short of money, I'm just accumulating experience and practicing my hands. You think, I use the money my father gave me to buy a plane ticket to see you, or I use the money I earned from drawing to see you, which one moves you more?"

"I won't be moved by my wife's hard work to come to see me. That only shows that I am incompetent, and you have never come to see me. You didn't come even after I gave you the apartment key."

"You male chauvinist." Xia Chengqi couldn't help pinching his indifferent face, "I'm not a woman."

"I've tried my best to respect you, but am I disrespecting you if I want to treat you well?" Lu Henglin felt a little tired, he took Xia Chengqi's hand and put it on his heart, "Is this yours?"

"Yes?"

"Since this is all yours, isn't my money also yours?" Lu Henglin looked at him with sharp eyes.

"The business school really inspired your profiteering nature, and your ability to secretly change concepts is top-notch."

Lu Henglin was discouraged, "I invested the money myself, so I don't want to use your donation."

Xia Chengqi didn't want him to be unhappy, so he immediately pulled his arms away and sat in by himself, then took out his mobile phone and let him watch him place an order, and spent the money Lu Henglin just transferred to him to buy a luxury red set. Ring permanent needle tube pen, as well as a set of mechanical pencils of the same brand, and a set of tool rulers.

Thinking to myself, I don’t know when it will be used. I looked up to see that Lu Henglin’s face was still not good with his hands on his waist, and he immediately bought a Faber-Castell 250-year commemorative master painting box that can be directly used as wall decoration.

It might actually end up as a wall decoration.

Still in a bad mood, he directly ordered a luxurious professional writing desk.

Lu Henglin finally buried his face into the back of Xia Chengqi's neck, and sighed against his skin with the tip of his nose, "How much do you earn for drawing a picture?"

"It depends on the specific situation, ranging from $150 to $[-]."

"Then why don't you buy me gifts after earning money?" Lu Henglin said coquettishly, "I don't even have cufflinks for formal occasions."

"Mr. Lu, can your jokes be colder?" Xia Chengqi couldn't help but pinch his stern face with a smile.

"Really, if you don't buy it for me, I will never have cufflinks."

Xia Chengqi turned on the phone, looked for several brands and looked at the prices, "You profiteer, you want to monopolize all my drawing income."

"This black agate bee is fine. After all, I'm still a student, so just keep a low profile." Lu Henglin pointed unceremoniously, and added after a while, "I'm not in a hurry, don't work too hard."

"Buy, buy, buy!" Xia Chengqi said boldly, "I have to satisfy all your wishes."

"Then if you bought the cufflinks, will you never come to see me if you don't have money?"

"I didn't stop going to see you, but I was very busy at the beginning, and—" Xia Chengqi chose to hide the reason why he was a little shy, "Didn't you give me money? I spent your money to see you, are you happy? ?”

Xia Chengqi was kind and generous, and even transferred money to his airline card in front of him.

"My money? What's mine is yours." Lu Henglin said with disgust.

"Yes, yes, what you said is correct, shall we make dumplings tomorrow?" Xia Chengqi laughed at him.

"I'm just giving an example. This is not the only way you want to make a sound." Lu Henglin blew on his neck.

"Hey, I can't interfere with you being a traditional person." Xia Chengqi pushed him away.

His birthday was approaching, and thinking of this, he felt that it would be nice to have some rituals.

He prepared a surprise for Lu Henglin, so he never went to see him.

In late November, Xia Chengqi got a few days off smoothly because of the early overall arrangements.

He quietly drew some more pictures without telling Lu Henglin, which was considered good, and did not cause more disputes, and finally bought the cufflinks he liked.

When packing his luggage, Xia Chengqi tidied and tidied, trying to hide the women's dress in the middle with his own clothes, he didn't want to be treated as a pervert during the security check.

But the tension and shame still couldn't be dispelled, and when he arrived at the airport, he was still scolding Lu Henglin for that damn list in his heart.

He felt even more ashamed when he thought that rushing to New York on the eve of his birthday would be tantamount to sending her off for thousands of miles.

As a result, his shame and nervousness made him forget the difference in weather between the east and west coasts. San Francisco, which is sunny and sunny all year round, got on the plane, and the cold snap of New York greeted him when he got off the plane.

He didn't want to admit that all the shirts he brought were tall and straight shirts, and he didn't even consider sweaters for the sake of pleasing himself.

Gritting his teeth, he got into the taxi and called Lu Henglin, but the phone turned off.

He had a bad premonition. Sure enough, before he arrived at Lu Henglin's apartment, the owner of the house called and asked himself, "Where did you sneak off to work again?"

To tell you the truth, I flew to New York and wanted to secretly engage in pornographic services.

Xia Chengqi desperately realized that communication is always the most important thing for couples, "I'm almost at your apartment."

"..." Lu Henglin was silent, probably also mad over there, and did not forget to correct him, "Our apartment."

"..."

"Why do you have a nasal voice? The weather in New York has changed. Are you not wearing thick clothes?" Lu Henglin really became too considerate, and he noticed these details immediately.

"I'm fine, you—"

Lu Henglin interrupted him domineeringly, "Go to the apartment now and drink some hot water. If you feel uncomfortable, there is a medicine box in the fourth drawer of the cupboard. Go to sleep and wait for me. When you wake up, you will see me."

Xia Chengqi thought to himself, he is about to fall in love with the scene where the domineering CEO falls in love with me.
